And the Anling Wang clan is the leading aristocratic family in Anling, and it has been the case for hundreds of years.

Why can the Anling royal family be passed down for hundreds of years?

The reason is very simple, because this wealthy family is also surnamed Ji!

Yes, the Anling Wang clan is the descendant of the descendants of the royal family surnamed Ji in the early days of the founding of the Wei State, but with the inheritance of generations, it is far away from the bloodline of the Zhao family surnamed Ji, so it was reduced to a public family and called the surname Ji Wang.

Don't look at Zhao Hongrun, his third uncle Zhao Laiyu's Ji surname Zhao is a royal family, and the Anling Wang family is just a public family, as if it is shorter, but in fact, the Wang family's background in Anling is not comparable to Zhao Laiyu's Ji surname Zhao at all, but the latter has a purer bloodline and higher status.

It is no exaggeration to say that the power and financial resources of the Anling Wang clan will never be inferior to the princes of Chengling King Zhao Wenshen and other feudal princes, the difference between the two is only that the latter has a fiefdom, and no matter how many generations can still apply the noble surname of Ji Zhao, while the former does not have this honor.

This kind of example is commonplace in the Wei State: there are many big nobles with amazing wealth and great power, in fact, all of whom have the surname Ji, and they all come from the noble surname of Ji, Zhao, but with the change of the times, they were ordered by the sect to change their names due to their mixed blood.

To put it bluntly, now in the Wei State, there are many nobles surnamed Ji, but the Zhao family only has the clan and Zhao Wenshen, the king of Chengling, and other princes and kings who were sealed in the early days of the founding of the country, and the rest have all changed their names, such as the Wang family in Anling.

Today's Anling Wang family, the head of the family is called Wang Zhan, the eldest among his peers, and there are two younger brothers, one named Wang Xun and the other Wang Lun.

And Wang Zan gave birth to three sons and four daughters, the eldest son is called Wang Zhi, the second son is Wang Han, and the third son is Wang Chen, who is called Wang Sangongzi by the locals.

The eldest son, Wang Zhi, is known to be talented, passed the imperial examination at a young age, and then with the support of the financial resources and power of the Anling Wang's family, he entered the official career, and is now serving as a Lang official in the Ministry of the Great Liang Imperial Court, which can be called young and promising.

The second son, Wang Han, did not like to read since he was a child, and studied with his brother Wang Zhi since he was a child, but in the end he didn't learn why.

At first, Wang Han hoped to enlist in the sixth battalion of the garrison and become an officer, but unfortunately, although the Anling Wang clan was not small, the generals of the sixth battalion of the garrison never pretended to be the nobles in the country. Tired of it?

As a result, Wang Han relied on the power of the Anling Wang clan at the earliest, although he was mixed into the Junshui Army at that time, but he only got the position of a military commander.

Junshui Army, as we all know, training is extremely hard, Wang Han survived for half a year, but he couldn't stand it anymore, so he fled back home.

At that time, the Anling Wang clan spent a lot of money to let the Junshui Army remove Wang Han's name from the military register, otherwise, like Wang Han, a deserter, the Junshui Army would inevitably arrest him back and strictly enforce military discipline.

Think the sixth battalion of the garrison is the city gate? Come and go as you want?

However, for the sake of the heavy gift secretly given by the Anling Wang clan, Bailiba finally removed Wang Han, a deserter.

After returning to Anling, Wang Han, with the help of his family, became the governor of Anling.

I have to say that Wang Han has been trained in the Junshui Army for half a year after all, and his martial arts are really good, at least ordinary county soldiers, ten of them are not his opponents, so it is not a big problem to serve as a county lieutenant.

As for Wang Zhan's youngest son, Wang Chen, he is purely a pampered gentleman, who has a good life on weekdays.

It is undeniable that this is a true portrayal of the vast majority of aristocratic families in the Wei State: for the eldest son who wants to inherit the family business, the family will strictly educate and cultivate, but for some sons who are destined to fail to inherit the family business, their family education will be relatively relaxed.

This kind of education method led to Wang Zhi, the eldest son of the Anling Wang family, entering the official career at a young age, and was called the talent of the pillars, while his younger brothers Wang Han and Wang Chen, one relied on himself to be a county lieutenant and ran rampant in the township, and the other was purely eating, drinking, and hunting every day, without thinking about the future at all.

But then again, even if a noble child like Wang Chen is destined to be unable to inherit the family business in the future, he really doesn't need to worry about his future life, after all, he is also a member of the Wang family, even if Wang Zhi inherits the family business in the future, he will not treat his two younger brothers badly.

Moreover, although Wang Chen does not learn or know, he is quite filial to his parents, and he can speak well, which makes his father and mother quite happy.

Therefore, don't look at Wang Zan always praising his eldest son Wang Zhi externally, but in his heart, he loves his youngest son Wang Chen very much, except for the fact that the position of the head of the family cannot be passed on to Wang Chen, no matter what Wang Chen wants, Wang Zan will try his best to satisfy him.

However, when Wang Chen came back today, Wang Zan learned from the domestic servant that his youngest son's expression was different.

So, Wang Zan ordered the servants to call Wang Chen to the study.

"Chen'er, I heard that you are not happy today, what's wrong, are you arguing with Cheng Sui?" Wang Zan asked with a smile.

The Anling Wang family, and the Anling Zhao family, come from an ancestor, and there are many marriages in modern times, and the relationship between the two families is very good, so even if Zhao Chengsui is a child of the royal family, in front of Wang Zhan, he has always held the gift of a junior.

"The child and the thirteenth brother are like brothers, how can they quarrel and quarrel?" Wang Chen shook his head, the thirteenth brother in his mouth was referring to Zhao Chengsui, who was ranked thirteenth in the Anling Zhao clan.

Wang Zan laughed when he heard this, nodded and said, "Okay, good, just be like a brother." …… My Wang family, and your thirteenth brother's Zhao family, were originally derived from the same ancestor, and they were originally brothers. As he spoke, he paused and asked suspiciously, "Since it's not because of your thirteenth brother, why is it?" ”

Wang Chen thought for a moment when he heard this, and then said timidly: "Father, the child may ...... offended Zhao Run, the king of Su. ”

"If you offend, you will offend ......" Wang Zan didn't take it seriously, after all, his youngest son would cause trouble since he was a child, and he had offended a lot of people over the years, and he had long been accustomed to it.

However, after reacting, Wang Zhan's complexion changed a little, and he asked urgently, "Who do you say you offended?" ”

"It's the brother of the thirteenth brother's family, King Su Zhao Run......"

"King Su?" Wang Zhan's face changed for a while, he stood up, paced back and forth in the study, and said in a deep voice: "The matter will go through 1510 tunnels." ”

So, Wang Chen told Wang Zan about what they had encountered on their return trip from hunting, and only heard the latter frown slightly.

After a long time, Wang Zan frowned and said, "You shouldn't lock him up outside the city. …… It was a trivial matter, but when you did this, you really offended Zhao Run completely. ”

"That's the idea of the thirteenth brother...... Wang Chen hurriedly explained: "Father doesn't know, how arrogant and domineering Zhao Run is, and what else does his name say is Hongrun, so he reads it as a domineering person, and he thinks about being aggressive, and he doesn't take my Wang family in his eyes at all." ”

In fact, Wang Chen had already said these things once, so Wang Zan didn't have any other reaction after hearing this, just shook his head and said, "Despite this, you still can't lock him outside the city......"

Seeing his father say this, Wang Chen was slightly surprised in his heart, and asked in a low voice: "Father, is Zhao Run really very powerful?" ”

"Hmm." Wang Zan nodded, and said in a condensed voice: "Zhao Run, not an ordinary prince, at the beginning of spring this year, he even knocked down the clan of Daliang, don't you wonder why your thirteenth brother's grandfather (Zhao Laiyu) came to my Anling?" As a father, I can tell you that the grandfather of your thirteenth brother was excluded by that Zhao Run and lost control of the sect......

"Zong...... Zongfu? ”

Wang Chen's face was surprised.

Don't look at the common people, except for the Liang side, few people know about the Zongfu, but in the aristocratic circle, the Zongfu is a high-ranking existence, especially in the hearts of the Zhao royal family surnamed Ji, and the princes like the Wang family surnamed Ji.

Therefore, when he suddenly heard that Zhao Hongrun had even knocked down the Zongfu and kicked Zhao Chengsui's grandfather Zhao Laiyu away from Daliang and kicked him back to Anling, Wang Chen was stunned.

"That'...... So what to do? Wang Chen asked in a panic.

Wang Zan waved his hand, signaling his youngest son to be restless.

Although Wang Zan had never seen King Su Zhao Run, he had heard a lot about the deeds of that King Su.

He was not worried that his youngest son Wang Chen would offend the Su King, after all, both parties were from the same ancestor, even if there was a slight friction, I believe that the Su King would not put the young son in front of him to death.

What Wang Zan is more concerned about is the porridge factory that his youngest son Wang Chen said.

The refugees outside Anling City, Wang Zan knows; A group of bad boys led by his youngest sons Wang Chen and Zhao Chengsui emptied the Kumi in the county warehouse and sold it to other counties, and he also knew.

Before that, he had no interest in asking about it.

What happened to the refugees who starved to death? What country has not starved to death?

However, the king of Su ordered Yan Yong, the county commander of Anling County, to open a porridge factory and give rice porridge to the refugees outside the city, this message made Wang Zan feel that the situation was not good.

And the attitude of King Su towards his youngest son and Zhao Chengsui of the Anling Zhao clan made Wang Zan realize the crisis.

"Chen'er, these **** stay at home obediently and are not allowed to go out......"

Just when Wang Zan was telling his youngest son, suddenly a domestic servant hurriedly came outside the study, and said breathlessly: "Master, it's not good, the Yanling army occupies the south gate of my Anling." …… Subsequently, a group of people went to the county warehouse, split the door lock, and inspected the warehouse rice in the county warehouse. ”

Wang Zan chuckled in his heart.

Of course, he understood who was the mastermind of this matter: apart from that Su Wang Zhao Run, who had the courage to occupy the southern city gate and open the county warehouse to inspect the warehouse rice without permission?

In Wang Chen's stunned gaze, Wang Zan paced back and forth in the study with a solemn expression, thinking about countermeasures.

I don't know how long later, another servant came to tell me.

"Master, there was a group of people outside the house, saying that King Su had arrived, and let the master personally go out to greet him."

Sure enough......

Wang Zhan's complexion changed slightly.

He didn't care about Zhao Hongrun and his entourage, after all, Zhao Hongrun's status was indeed more noble than him, and he went out to greet him in person, which was nothing.

What he was worried about was that the king of Su did not have good intentions this time. (To be continued.) )
