Chapter 204: Wuyi Lane (I)
Time comes to night, Jiankang. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The water of the Qinhuai River flows slowly, and the sound of the water flow is crisp and pleasant, which contrasts with the Wende Bridge next to it, outlining the scenery of the water town at dusk.
This situation and this scene, so that outsiders can come, can also be relaxed and happy to blend in, turning themselves into a part of the scene, such a place that brings together Zhong Lingyu Xiu, can be regarded as a unique place, feng shui treasure, it is no wonder that the Wang, Xie and other families located here can continue to rise and fall for hundreds of years, which makes people sigh.
Wang Ningzhi in the previous life also came here, with the scenery of the Qinhuai River, walked into the Wuyi Alley, excluded the endless stream of tourists and merchants who made a living from it, and brought it into the rise and fall of the millennium, feeling the gap between "Wang Xie Tang Qianyan in the old days, flying into the homes of ordinary people", it is really a little strange, but now-
The ox cart drove slowly through the compacted path, and on both sides were the houses.
Wang Ningzhi lifted the curtain and looked at the sparkling river through the sunset, feeling a little emotional for a while, no need for a panoramic view, just this corner is enough for him to feel the transformation of a thousand years of time, inexplicably, there is a little more sadness.
Xie Daoyun and Huan'er next to him also seemed to feel the change in his mood, but they couldn't guess why he was sentimental, so they could only carefully follow his thoughts, holding them gently with their two hands, but they were slowly rubbing, there was some ambiguity, but because of the transition from day to night, it became a little bleak and turned into comfort.
After a while, Xie Daoyun pulled Wang Ningzhi's shirt: "Lang Jun, it's here." ”
Before marrying Wang Ningzhi, Xie Daoyun lived in Wuyi Lane, her father died early, and lived in Xie's manor with Xie An's children.
Presumably this is the Xie family.
Wang Xie and the two families are next to each other, so after Xie Daoyun reminded him, soon, the ox cart stopped, and there was a little noise, Wang Ning got out of the car, and helped Xie Daoyun and Huan'er down, and saw a group of people carrying lanterns, talking while walking, closer, Wang Ningzhi heard clearly.
"But Shuping Xiaolang-kun?" These people are the slaves and maids of the Wang family, asking, and walking under the guidance of Xu Heng and others.
Wang Ningzhi nodded: "It's me." ”
After getting the answer, the gate of the Wang family's manor was opened, and the slaves and maids were responsible for placing things, while Wang Ningzhi and Xie Daoyun followed the little maid to the master's house.
The night is shrouded, and many things are inconvenient to do, so listening to the meaning of the little guy, I can only trouble Wang Ningzhi and Xie Daoyun to temporarily stay in the guest room, it doesn't matter if they are wronged or not, they are all a family, although they are not in the same vein, but there is no need to have politeness that should not be there, otherwise they will be divided.
Wang Ningyi was talking to the little guy as he walked, and Xie Daoyun quietly followed the position slightly behind him, listening quietly.
Since he was going to live here in the future, Wang Ningzhi naturally investigated here.
Although the Langya Wang family is going downhill, but the huge family is still a fact, the number of Wang children is extremely large, the reason why the influence has become weaker is because many people do not like to be officials, or have not entered the real power class, so that the influence of the court is weak, today's court, generally Xie An, Sima Yu and others control, the queen mother has returned power to the emperor, but what can I do...... The emperor was obsessed with cultivating immortals.
The family is huge, so it is impossible for all the children of the Wang family to live here, and many side branches have scattered, such as Wang Xi's first line, Wang Biao's first line, etc., and most of the people who live here now are Wang Dao's first line.
"If I'm not mistaken, now the family is headed by Xuanchen (Wang Kun's) cousin, right?"
From the outside, the Grange may feel relatively small, but after coming in, I found that it is quite large, after all, it is a top-level gate valve, and the decoration construction of the permanent place should not be underestimated...... Wang Ningzhi has already guessed who he is going to see now, Wang Dao has six sons, of which the eldest son Wang Yue, the third son Wang Qia, and the fourth son Wang Xie have all passed away, and there are still two sons Wang Tian, five sons Wang Shao, and six sons Wang Hui, Wang Yue has no heirs, so Wang Tian's second son Wang Kun will be passed over, so in this way, Wang Dao's vein, Wang Kun has become the eldest grandson, because Wang Yue died, he has also become an adult, so he is in charge of the family (I am dizzy and dizzy when the lineage is checked).
"Yes, it's getting late, and it's inconvenient for the elders to meet, so I thought that Xiao Langjun's reception banquet will be held tomorrow, and today I will see the head of the family first, arrange a place to stay, and rest for a night, and many other matters will be arranged tomorrow......" The little guy explained, saying that he was a little guy, he was older, and he was probably in charge, Wang Ningzhi didn't ask much, and while talking, they turned to a courtyard.
"It's Shuping Xiaolangjun." The little maid said to the maid in the courtyard, and then bowed to Wang Ningzhi and gestured, "Xiao Langjun go in, I'll wait outside." ”
The maidservant brought the two in, and soon, there were two more people in the courtyard, a handsome son and a virtuous woman, that is, Wang Kun and his wife Lu.
The four of them exchanged a few words, it was time for dinner, so they served more food, and after the four of them were full of wine and food, they separated in twos, Lu pulled Xie Daoyun to whisper in the courtyard, Wang Kun and Wang Ningzhi entered the study.
"The letter sent by Shu Ping that day, does it have the support of Uncle Yi's young uncle?" Wang Kun asked.
In order to prevent the marriage between Huan Zhongdao and Yuyao, Wang Ningzhi made a total of two measures, one was a letter to Huan Wen, hoping to bring some delaying effect, and the other was a letter to the lord here, in order to persuade the Langya Wang family to support Huan Wen's Northern Expedition.
Although there are selfish intentions, but as a later generation, the Northern Expedition is an extremely wise thing, although it is very, very difficult to fight from the south to the north, but the commander is Huan Wen, counting Huan Wen's achievements, not to say that there is no defeat, but even if it is defeated, it can also benefit from it...... Strategic vision is high.
So when he heard Wang Kun's inquiry, he thought for a while and said: "My cousin should know the current pattern of the court, Duke Huan is powerful, and the court is controlled by Duke Anshi, King Huiji, Queen Mother, etc., because he is worried that Duke Huan will shock his authority with the Northern Expedition, and he is afraid, so that the main battle faction is suppressed, and the Northern Expedition cannot be carried out for a long time...... But not to mention the righteousness of the country, for the family, how the imperial court does not have much influence, it is often the interests of everyone, my Langya Wang clan's influence is gradually shrinking now, it is necessary to have the opportunity to jump again, if we support the Northern Expedition, then with the current pattern of the imperial court, it is very likely that the Northern Expedition will continue, and there will be chaos among the forces of all parties——"
"Shuping wants to say that the more chaotic the situation, the more conducive to earning profits?" Wang Kun listened and thought about it, and said contemplatively, "If it is according to Shuping, it is no less than a gambling game, and it is also a gambling game that is related to the interests of the entire Wang family......"
