Chapter 37: Xiao Rui visits the Langya Wang's house

Li Ke was named the king of Qi, and the news that the land of Qizhou was given to Li Ke as a fief was left without passing. Soon it spread in Deng, Lai, Mi, Qing, Yi, Yan, Qi, and Qizhou.

This is something that all famous families did not expect, after all, with Li Ke's embarrassing identity, it is not easy to get such a reward.

But now the facts are in front of them, which makes the famous family feel even more that Li Ke came to Qizhou is not as simple as an official.

In particular, the Langya royal family was even more shocked. Originally, Wang Wenlai also felt that Yizhou was not under Li Ke's jurisdiction. Even if Li Ke came to Yizhou to ask for someone, it was not an easy task.

But now Yizhou has become Li Ke's fief, which means that Yizhou is now under Li Ke's jurisdiction. Now if you want to detain Wang Kai at home, I'm afraid it's not so easy to do.

"I didn't expect that now the King of Shu has changed his title to the King of Qi, and our Yizhou has also become the fief of the King of Qi. It seems that this King Qi is really the nemesis of my Langya royal family. Wang Tianlai said with a sigh.

"Big brother, if Wang Kai is put back now, then the Shandong clan will be even more suspicious of us, and it will force us to go on the opposite side of the Shandong clan." Wang Wenlai opened his mouth and said to Wang Tian.

In fact, Wang Tianlai knew in his heart that this was not an immortal situation. As long as Wang Tianlai can sacrifice his son Wang Kai, the Langya Wang family will completely get rid of Li Ke's shackles.

But as the saying goes, tiger poison does not eat children and outsiders. If you want Wang Tianlai to make up this decision, it can be said that it is too difficult to choose.

At this time, Wang Gui walked into the study and said to Wang Tian: "Family master, Xiao Rui, the son of the Xiao family, is here. Now he is waiting for the head of the house in the living room. ”

"Why are the people from the Lanling Xiao family here? This is really the first time that a big girl has been in a sedan chair. Wang Wenlai said.

"The Lanling Xiao family can be Qufu Kong family, and it should be regarded as an outlier of the Shandong family. They do not participate in the alliance of the Shandong clan, and have been officials for many years. ”

"I came to our Langya Wang's house today, I'm afraid I came to be a lobbyist. It's not even for Wang Kai alone, but for my Langya Wang family to completely break with the Shandong clan. Wang Tianlai said.

"Even if the Lanling Xiao family is an official. But big brother, don't forget, Li Ke has just arrived in Qizhou City, and he has made a county order of the Xiao family in Lanling. I'm afraid that the Lanling Xiao family may not hold a grudge in this matter. ”

"So I think that this time the Lanling Xiao family came to our Langya Wang family, it may be to borrow the hand of my Lanling Xiao family to fight against Li Ke, the king of Qi." Wang Wenlai shook his head and said.

"The head of the family, the second master, no matter what the Lanling Xiao family is doing, according to the etiquette, the Langya Wang family can't be seen." Wang Gui opened his mouth and said.

"Uncle Gui is right, no matter what the purpose of the Lanling Xiao family is. Let's all go and meet the eldest son of the Lanling Xiao family for a while. Wang Tianlai nodded and said.

After finishing speaking, Wang Tianlai and the two brothers followed Wang Gui and left the study and came to the living room.

……

After Wang Tianlai came to the living room, he hurriedly clenched his fists and said to Xiao Rui: "I don't know if the master of the horse is coming, Wang Tianlai has missed the welcome, and please don't be surprised." ”

"Why is the head of the Wang family so polite, I came uninvited this time, please don't be weird." Xiao Rui hurriedly got up and saluted and said.

After a few more polite words, the two sat down. Then Wang Tianlai opened his mouth and said, "I don't know what advice the horse also has for this visit?" ”

"Presumably, the head of the Wang family has learned that the King of Shu has changed his title to King of Qi. And the emperor gave Deng, Lai, Mi, Qing, Yi, Yan, Qi, and Qizhou to the king of Qi as fiefs. ”

"Now our Yizhou has also become the fief of King Qi, which means that it doesn't matter if you are from the Langya royal family or my Lanling Xiao family. Now they have all become the people of his fiefdom. ”

"I don't know what the head of the Wang family thinks of this matter, and whether he is willing to let the third son, Wang Kai, continue to be an official in Qizhou?" Xiao Rui opened his mouth and said to Wang Tian.

"Master Ma should also be clear about the alliance covenant of the Shandong clan. If I'm letting the dog go to Qizhou as an official, I'm afraid I'm going to break with the Shandong clan. ”

"After all, the Langya Wang family is different from the Lanling Xiao family, after all, the Lanling Xiao family is not bound by the covenant. But my Langya Wang family can't. Wang Tianlai said with a sigh.

"Having said that, I'm afraid that the head of the Wang family may not be able to do it if he wants to break with the Shandong clan this time." Xiao Rui shook his head and said.

"What the horse master said was too arbitrary. According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, it is just the exile of Wang Kai. I'm afraid the impact on my Langya royal family is not very great. Wang Wenlai opened his mouth and said to Xiao Rui.

"If things were really that simple, I Xiao Rui wouldn't have to visit me today. Your Langya royal family thinks things are too simple. Xiao Rui said.

"Master Poma, since you came to the door in person, why do you need to circle it. What the hell does the horse master want to say, why not be open and honest? Wang Tian looked at Xiao Rui and asked.

"The head of the Wang family is really a cheerful person, so I, Xiao Rui, will be blunt. This time, I, Xiao Rui, came to Langya Wang's house to be a lobbyist for King Qi. ”

"King Qi's intention is not only to let Wang Kai continue to serve as the county seat of Qizhou. He is also ready to let the head of the Wang family take the position of Qizhou Assassin. Xiao Rui opened his mouth and said to Wang Tian.

"King Qi is really whimsical, he actually wants his eldest brother to take the position of Qizhou Assassin. Does he really think that because of a junior, the Langya royal family can make him bow down to him? Wang Wenlai said with a disdainful face.

"A junior naturally can't let the Langya Wang family take it too seriously. But if the emperor sees this thing, do you think the Langya royal family can still be so arrogant? Xiao Rui said sharply to Wang Wen.

Wang Tianlai took a secret letter from Xiao Rui's hand, and couldn't help but feel shocked after reading it. He never imagined that this would be the result in the end.

Seeing that beads of sweat had oozed from the corners of Wang Tianlai's forehead, Xiao Rui continued to speak: "King Qi just wants to give your Langya Wang family a chance, so he asked Xiao Rui to be a lobbyist. ”

"This can be regarded as the first salute of the King of Qi and then the soldiers, if the Langya royal family is still obsessed. It won't be me Xiao Rui next time. ”

After Xiao Rui finished speaking, he got up and hugged Wang Tianlai, and was about to say goodbye and leave. But Wang Tianlai opened his mouth and said: "Wait a minute, please tell the king of Qi that I will come to Qizhou in 3 days to take office." ”

"It seems that the head of the Wang family is really a handsome man who judges the situation. I will definitely bring the words of the head of the Wang family to the King of Qi. I believe that King Qi will be very happy after hearing this. Xiao Rui nodded and said, and then walked away from the Langya Wang's house.

After sending Xiao Rui away, Wang Wenlai asked Wang Tianlai: "Big brother, what is written in the letter?" How did you make such a decision? ”
