During the Tang Dynasty, the world was divided into three capitals, namely Chang'an, the upper capital, Luoyang, the eastern capital, and Taiyuan, the northern capital.

At the beginning, Tang Gaozu Li Yuan's hereditary Tang Guogong was sealed in Taiyuan. At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, it was called the state, and there were a total of 18 counties under the state, namely Qingxu County, Yangqu County, Loufan County, Gujiao City, and Taigu County......

Among the northern capital Taiyuan, the most prominent is the Taiyuan Wang family, which is now five surnames and seven hopes.

The Taiyuan Wang clan can be described as the county of Zhaoxing and the county of Wang, and it is also the first to ascend to the status of the first-class gate lord clan. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wang Yun turned the tide with his strength in the country and society and promoted this family to become a famous family in the world.

In history, Wang Qian, a famous general who unified the six countries in the Qin Dynasty, was a member of the Taiyuan Wang family. Then there are Wang Tanzhi, Wang Yun, Wang Tong, Wang Bo, Wang Wei, Wang Zhilian, etc.

But as far as Qin Ze knew, the current Taiyuan Wang clan was not as beautiful as he imagined. In the words of the most popular comment nowadays, it is "literate, less bones; Prestigious, lacking in characters. In fact, by now, the Taiyuan Wang family has had to live in the leopard's tail, abandoned outside the "four surnames", and has become a beautiful ornament with Cui, Lu, Li, and Zheng Xu.

The main reason why it fell into such a situation is that the Taiyuan Wang family belongs to a family that enters the north from the south, which is very different from other high-ranking families in the north with deep roots. In addition to the fact that the identity of the scholar clan has not been confirmed and the prestige is not obvious, there are also few talents in the clan.

And the family that can really be called a family is because of its huge root system. Whether it is a large number of talents in the clan, or a large number of talents through marriage and family education. These are the reasons why the family can be deeply rooted in the change of dynasties.

But for the Taiyuan Wang family, not only because there are few talents in the clan. And in terms of world qualifications, marriage, family education, door style, etc., they are all unsatisfactory. This also has a lot to do with the fact that the Wang family migrated.

Because of the lack of necessary social roots in the north, its characters seem to have always lived in the capital, and did not have a minimum of clan power in the local area, and it was even difficult to get involved in the affairs of Jinyang, Taiyuan, where the county was located.

In recent years, the slightly more famous one is Wang Tong, a great Confucian at the end of the Sui Dynasty, perhaps his name is not well known. But speaking of his grandson, it was Wang Bo, the head of the four heroes of the early Tang Dynasty.

Wang Tong is naturally also a very person, and was once awarded the Shu County Sihu Shuzuo and the Shu King Shilang. But after all, he couldn't be contaminated with the atmosphere of officialdom, so he resigned and was accompanied by Confucian righteousness all day long.

Like Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Mi, Wen Yanbo, Du Yan...... These people have all been taught by Wang Tong.

What he advocates is the idea that the people are precious and the monarch is light, and this is also the reason why Fang Xuanling and others were taught by him.

Perhaps it is precisely because of Wang Tong that the Taiyuan Wang family is now the lintel of the family in Datang. It's just that there are not many officials above the court, but they are a monopoly in Taiyuan.

Wang Yuxi's father, Wang Jiang, is one of Wang Tong's many heirs. It's just that because it's a concubine, it hasn't been taken care of. In addition, because he was struggling to make a living, he started a cloth business, and the Wang family directly expelled him from the Wang family in a fit of anger.

Shinong businessmen, these families who regard themselves as scholars, look down on businessmen the most. Therefore, in the family, it is often the clansmen of the lower status who engage in commercial activities to provide money and food for the family.

As for Wang Jiang, he was expelled only because he had come into contact with business without permission. But fortunately, Wang Yuxi was born a businessman, and under all kinds of hardships, he made the business of Buzhuang the largest one in Taiyuan.

Coupled with the establishment of the Taiyuan Chamber of Commerce, it has made her Wang family even more proud.

It's a pity that businessmen are always businessmen, even if they are famous businessmen, they can't get rid of the four words of Shinong Industry and Commerce after all.

Wang Yuxi, who left the Wang family, also moved to Qingxu County.

Qingxu County was originally a small county, and Jinyang County, which was the Wang family's own family, naturally cannot be compared, but now the county magistrate of Qingxu County is not from the Wang family.

Li Er is naturally not stupid enough to hand over all the eighteen counties of Taiyuan to the Taiyuan Wang family, and naturally he wants to place other people in them.

And this Sun Hanzhi is such a candidate, but although this person is not good with the Wang family, he is a protégé of the Cui family. So this time, when I heard that the Cui family intended to make things difficult for Qin Ze, I naturally gladly accepted the order.

Qin Ze didn't let the Cui family get better, and the Cui family didn't let Qin Ze get better.

And this Xu Hanzhi is not a bright and upright person in the first place, since the Cui family has a life, he naturally does everything. As long as he can please the Cui family, maybe he will be able to rise to prominence again.

So for the sake of his own future, Xu Hanzhi also hit Wang Yuxi with his idea. No one in the whole Chang'an knows the relationship between Wang Yuxi and Qin Ze, and the story of marrying someone and sending Zhan Lang is even more popular in Chang'an.

This is very easy to do, Qin Ze has now become a traitor, and he has fallen to the situation where the wall is falling down and everyone is pushing, and he Xu Hanzhi naturally has to step on it.

If Wang Yuxi is forced to marry a wife, won't this Chang'an story naturally become a laughing stock?

He had a son who was not angry, and he did nothing evil under his arrogance. was born to be a person who admires sex, and since he saw Wang Yuxi, he has been clamoring to marry her.

Wang Yuxi has a thin fate, of course Xu Hanzhi doesn't want his son to be contaminated, but he has no choice but to ask for his son in every way. And make a promise only for his body, not for a long time. This made Xu Hanzhi agree.

His plan to do this is not the same as Cui Ling's plan at the beginning. wants to use a marriage contract to take revenge on Qin Ze.

Xu Hanzhi thinks so, but his son Xu Liangzhong doesn't think so. Although he promised his father that he only wanted a night of fish and water, but just a marriage contract was a waste of Wang Yuxi's appearance......

The sun had just risen over the horizon, and the door of the Wang family's mansion was already pounding. Xu Liangzhong, who was loosely dressed, had already taken dozens of families to surround the door of the palace.

Today is the deadline he gave Wang Jiang, and he has made all the preparations for coming this time. The matchmaker invited the best safflower woman in the entire Qingxu County, and the dowry was also three cars, six boxes and twenty-eight husbands.

So even if it is face, he feels that he has given enough.

Xu Liangzhong kept knocking outside the mansion, but the door was still closed.

Although Wang Jiang is very knowledgeable, he is a little worse after all. So at this time, in the face of Xu Liangzhong's hardships outside the house, he could only look at his daughter helplessly.

Today's Wang Yuxi is very different, in the past, he was always sad and sad. Today, it is a face of perseverance.

"Yes, don't worry, my daughter will go to meet this Xu Liangzhong." Wang Yuxi tightened her clothes, but she was about to go to open the door.

Wang Jiang stood in front of Wang Yuxi in one step, and his face was still ashamed.

"It's all because yes yes is incompetent, I have sent someone to ask my uncle a few days ago, but I don't want to get a response. It's just that he went to dig the canal with him, and yes is still quite strong now, and he can definitely swing a few axes. ”

In the social class of the Tang Dynasty, the common people were mainly divided into two categories: "good" and "cheap", and "good" was also called "liangren", that is, nobles, officials, monks, and ordinary peasants. individual petty traders, and so on.

And "cheap" is also called cheap, mainly including some miscellaneous households, Gongle households, tribesmen, guest girls and other official or private "untouchables".

A big businessman like Wang Jiang is between the good and the cheap, so he is called a "cheap businessman".

However, although he is a cheap businessman, he is a member of the Wang family after all, and Xu Hanzhi does not dare to offend more on weekdays. encountered the matter of requisitioning and transferring people's husbands, and also acquiesced to Wang Jiang's replacement with slaves.

This was originally a matter of agreement between the government and the people, but now that Xu Hanzhi has received the Cui family's signal, it will naturally not be as usual. And Xu Hanzhi pursued it like this, Wang Jiang had no choice.

What Xu Hanzhi is for, Wang Yuxi knows very well, he is entangled in every way is to bully her, and there is no one in the Wang family. And in the name of being a businessman, he has intensified.

Thinking that Wang Jiang is now in the year of the Mandate of Heaven, how can he bear the pain of luck. Even if you can survive falling into the hands of others, you don't have to suffer a lot.

"The Wang family suffered a catastrophe this time, and it must be inseparable from the Cui family. Xu Hanzhi is like this, but he wants to humiliate Qin Ze by using me. Now that my Wang family is isolated, there is no official and no job, and my family refuses to pay attention to it, where else do I have a choice. Wang Yuxi's tone was indifferent, but his eyes were full of sadness.

Qin Ze entered the Turkic life and death unknown, and the one-year appointment has not been returned for a long time, I am afraid that it has already been ......

"Life sleeps together, death dies in the same cave. In the hometown of Tang Soul, I met with you. ”

Wang Yuxi smiled faintly, and then stepped forward and ordered the servant to open the door of the house.

Wang Jiang behind him blocked the door again, looking at Wang Yuxi's gaze, he suddenly understood.

"Ji'er, you promise yes, don't think too much. shouldn't let you go to Chang'an, I thought I would let you relax, but I got into such a bad fate for nothing. It's all yes' fault, since Xu Hanzhi is so difficult for us, it must be that Qin kid is still there.

Ye Ye went to beg the uncle of the family again, and Xu Hanzhi clearly wanted to put me to death......"

"Yese needless to say, the parents of the body are affected by the skin, and Ji'er is with Yeye." Wang Yuxi smiled miserably, but she was even more sad.

"There is no greater mourning than the death of the heart, and yes does not want you to do it. If not, yes, yes, he will die on the lintel of his house! ”

The officials forced the people to rebel, and the people had to rebel. At the beginning, Wang Fu insisted on befriending Chang'an, hoping to gain power. If Xu Hanzhi deliberately made things difficult for a businessman, who would be dissatisfied?

When he opened the door of the house, the face that disgusted him to the extreme was now full of flattery.

Behind him were three carriages, stacked with six large boxes, and next to them twenty-eight domestic servants were all red silk crowns.

"Miss Yuxi has already made up her mind, if it is past today, she can't guarantee her uncle's safety."

As he said this, he had already pushed up the frightened and trembling Red Flower Woman.

The words of the matchmaker of the parents......

What Honghua said, Wang Yuxi didn't hear clearly. She just saw a marriage contract handed out of Xu Liangzhong's hand, but in front of her, she saw the person who had been thinking about it again in a trance.

"Lao Tzu's woman also dares to move, break Lao Tzu's three legs!"
