Chapter 495: The Wang Family
Princess Pingyang is very curious about the little lady of the Wang family who likes Xuanzang, in fact, let alone her, Li Xiu is also curious, although he promised the other party not to inquire about her situation, but curiosity is human instinct, so Li Xiu also wants to see the little lady of the Wang family, but thinking of the previous promise, he doesn't know whether he should bother the other party?
However, Li Xiu only hesitated for one night, and he didn't have to hesitate the next morning, because in the morning Sun Simiao came back from outside and told him a news very depressed, that the little lady of the Wang family suddenly fell ill, and when he arrived at the Wang family, the other party had quietly left, and when Li Xiu heard this, the whole person was also sitting there, speechless for a long time.

At the same time, a high-gate mansion in the south of Chang'an City is full of sadness, a small courtyard in the inner house has been hung with white silk, a cold coffin stopped in the main hall of the room, a middle-aged lady crouched on the coffin and cried non-stop, and on the chair in the hall, a middle-aged man in his thirties sat there silently, tears could not stop pouring out.
"Daddy, why is my sister asleep, and no matter how much Yi'er screams, she can't wake her up?" At this moment, I saw a boy next to the middle-aged man looking up at him with an innocent little face and asking, this boy looks like he is only three or four years old, and he doesn't understand what death means at all?
Hearing the child's words, the middle-aged man almost couldn't help crying, but in the end, he still endured his grief, turned his face and secretly wiped the tears from his face, and took a long breath before he spoke: "Yi'er is right, your sister was too sick before, so she needs to sleep well, and when you grow up, she may wake up!" ”
"Well, then I'll work hard to eat and grow up early in the future, so that my sister can wake up early and play with me!" The boy said innocently again, but as soon as his words came out, the middle-aged man couldn't hold back any longer, turned his face and cried bitterly.
The middle-aged man's surname is Wang Renbiao, his father's name is Wang Yu, born in Taiyuan Wang, one of the five surnames and seven wangs, and belongs to the top family in the Central Plains, but Wang Yu's most powerful thing is not his background, but his wife is Li Yuan's own sister Tong'an eldest princess, but Wang Renbiao was not born to Tong'an eldest princess, but Wang Yu's ex-wife, which also led to Wang Renbiao's family not being treated very well by Tong'an eldest princess, and they usually don't live together.
The eldest princess of Tong'an is the sister of Li Yuan's mother, their mother Lonely gave birth to four sons and one daughter, but only Li Yuan and the eldest princess of Tong'an survived, and the other three sons all died early, which also makes Li Yuan and the eldest princess of Tong'an extremely close, but unfortunately the eldest princess of Tong'an has no children, only Wang Renbiao, the nominal son, but their mother and son are not very close, so Wang Renbiao is not usually very popular, only in the household department to hold an idle position, but it can be regarded as a noble-born, After all, he is still nominally Li Shimin's cousin and Princess Pingyang.
Wang Renbiao is the same as his father Wang Yu, the heirs are not very prosperous, there is only one daughter and one son over thirty, but the daughter is terminally ill, and died suddenly last night, according to the rules, the death of a woman who is not married can only be regarded as an untimely death, and after death, he can't even enter the ancestral grave, so he can only be buried outside as a lonely ghost, which makes him a father How can he not be heartbroken?
The white-haired person sending the black-haired person was one of the most tragic things in the world, but Wang Renbiao finally endured his grief, personally helped his wife over, and persuaded her for a long time to stop her grief, and then began to discuss how to arrange her daughter's funeral, after all, a daughter like this who died early will not have anyone else to help, and can only be handled by the couple themselves.
"Husband, Qianniang just left, I haven't been able to see her get married and have children, why is our daughter's life so bitter!" I saw Wang Renbiao's wife Li Shi wiped her tears again at this time, she still couldn't believe that her daughter really left like this.
"Madam, don't cry anymore, everyone has their own life, when Qianniang was terminally ill, we should have expected such a day, Qianniang's cemetery I have already let people choose, and Qianniang died young, and there is no way to do a big deal, we can only wait until seven days later, our family will see off Qianniang!" When Wang Renbiao said this, he couldn't help but sigh and said.
Although Wang Renbiao is the nominal son of the eldest princess of Tong'an, the relationship between the two is not very good, which leads to his hopeless career, and his daughter is not conspicuous among the nobles of the family, and he doesn't even have any friends when he looks like this, and he comes quietly at this age, it can be said that no one knows when he comes, and no one pays attention when he leaves, which makes Wang Renbiao's heart even more unpleasant.
"Master, Qianniang is our only daughter, she didn't enjoy any happiness with us when she was alive, no matter how she left, she had to be beautiful, why can't she do a big deal?" Li Shi cried at this time and said, she is not usually an unreasonable woman, but because of the death of her daughter, she was overly grieved, and she was a little unreasonable at this time.
"Madam, I understand your feelings, but our Wang family's rules are strict, we have to do what to do, if we don't follow the rules, I'm afraid not only outsiders will say that our Wang family doesn't follow the rules, but even the people in the family will scold us!" Wang Renbiao persuaded bitterly at this time, he also wanted to give his daughter a beautiful funeral, but his identity was already very embarrassing, and he was from a big family, so he had to take into account other people's opinions.
"Woo~, my poor daughter!" Hearing that Wang Renbiao disagreed, Li immediately cried loudly, in fact, she also knew that her request was a bit excessive, but under the heart of her beloved daughter, she would not consider too many other things.
"Mother, don't cry, my sister is just asleep, and when Yi'er grows up, my sister will naturally wake up!" At this moment, Wang Renbiao's son next to him spoke again, but when he heard his words, the Li family cried even more, and finally hugged his son, and his daughter left, this son is the lifeblood of their couple.
However, no amount of tears could solve the actual problem, and after Li was tired of crying, he finally regained some reason and could only agree with his husband's approach.
Originally, the person died, and the relatives and friends who received the news should also come to visit, but Wang Renbiao's identity was embarrassing, and even many people were afraid of the eldest princess of Tong'an, and they didn't dare to associate with Wang Renbiao at all, so he didn't have any friends, and Qianniang was a woman who had not left the cabinet, and it was impossible to know anyone, so Wang Renbiao didn't think that anyone would come to visit.
But at this moment, someone suddenly came to report: Princess Pingyang and the concubine Li Xiu are here together!
