In Taiyuan, in February, it was still cold and biting, full of bleak and solemn atmosphere.

In the southwest of the outer city of Taiyuan, the shore of Jinshui at the foot of the hanging urn mountain is the most famous scenic spot in Taiyuan, the Jin Temple. This is the source of Jin water, after King Wu of Zhou destroyed the Shang Dynasty, he divided the princes, sealed the second son Shu Yu in Tang, after the death of Shu Yu, his son Kun succeeded to the throne, because of Jin Shui, changed Tang to Jin State. Descendants built an ancestral hall at the foot of the hanging urn mountain and the source of Jinshui to worship Shuyu. Since then, in the long years, the Jin Temple has been built and expanded many times, especially in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Emperor Wenxuan Gao Yang, overthrew the Eastern Wei Dynasty, established the Northern Qi Dynasty, set Jinyang as another capital, and expanded the Jin Temple in the Tianbao period, "the big building view, through the pond". During the reign of Emperor Kaihuang of the Sui Dynasty, he also added a relics pagoda in the southwest of the ancestral area.

At this time, in this Jin Ancestral Hall, which has dozens of buildings of different styles in the past dynasties, Yi Feng really felt that the environment here was elegant and comfortable, and the scenery was beautiful and beautiful. The building group is majestic, the statue is superb, there are many stone tablets engraved with the works of many famous calligraphers of the past dynasties, and there are many intact famous paintings preserved on some walls, and the whole Jin Ancestral Hall is more like a beautiful garden full of artistic atmosphere.

On the edge of the Jin Ancestral Hall, Wang Du, the contemporary patriarch of the Taiyuan Wang clan, the most prestigious top lord in Hedong, and the patriarchs and elders of the powerful clans of Taiyuan and the surrounding states, stood solemnly on both sides, here to greet the great Sui Emperor's grandson and his civil generals who had just set off a huge storm in Taiyuan City. Yi Feng had only passed by before entering Taiyuan City, and the clans in the city originally wanted to follow the emperor; His Royal Highness the Taisun contacted it, but unfortunately His Highness didn't give him a chance. Who knew that when he turned around, the imperial grandson killed another horse pistol, and then set off a shocking wave. Many families in Taiyuan City. It was after Taisun had already entered the city and the storm had already passed. Only then did I know what was going on.

The king of Han sent troops to intercept and kill the emperor's grandson, and the emperor's grandson returned to the horse and uprooted the foundation of the king of Han in Taiyuan. also copied the property of King Han and his henchmen, which is simply too violent.

For this Han king, the natives of Hedong, especially these powerful clans in Taiyuan City, are quite familiar. This Han king has been in the state for two years, and he has already made Taiyuan City three feet away from the sky. Before Yang Liang, Taiyuan City also experienced many governors, even if the prince was in charge, there were three before him. King Jin, King Wei, King Qin, but there is no one like Yang Liang who is as greedy and simple and rude.

This guy has only been in Bingzhou for two years, but the people of Bingzhou have already gritted their teeth with hatred for this guy, especially these big clans in Taiyuan City, which one is not hemorrhage. Skillfully grabbing and forcibly buying good land, seeing that the business is good, you have to mix in a share, or even buy it directly. Many people dare not speak out in anger, and they can't afford to provoke this overlord.

Originally, when I heard that this guy was transferred, everyone was already very happy, and many people even burned the blast rod at home to celebrate with a wine banquet. There are also some people who go to the temple to offer incense and make vows, which is not easy.

What no one expected was that it was only a short time later. Such explosive news happened again.

Everyone was shocked and followed by great joy, and so on. This dog-day Han King is probably not going to return to Bingzhou in this life. Then everyone heard about a series of actions of the imperial grandson. They all clapped their hands. At this time, the emperor's grandson released news through people that he wanted to sell all the properties of the Han King in Bingzhou, mainly fields, manors, houses, mansions, villas, as well as shops, workshops, mines, etc., all for sale.

This time, it made the merchants in Hedong boil. Especially the big clans in Taiyuan, they were the first to get the news, and they are also the most powerful group of people in Hedong. At the same time, they are also most interested in the Han King's industry, because many of the Han King's industries originally belonged to their family, but they were later taken away by the Han King, and there are many industries that are ancestral properties that have been passed down from generation to generation, and now they have the opportunity to buy them back, which one is willing to let go.

Of course, these families in Taiyuan were not very familiar with the imperial grandson, but they quickly found someone who could talk to the grandson.

Taiyuan is headed by the Wang family, and the Taiyuan Wang family is the largest family in Taiyuan City, and even in the entire Hedong, and even one of the five surnames and seven high gates, the real top gate valve family, hundreds of years of heritage.

In addition, Wang Du, the contemporary head of the Taiyuan Wang family, has five brothers, and his second brother gathers in Longmen to teach apprentices, which is known as Wang Tong, who is known as the son of Wenzhong, and the third brother is the writer of the imperial court and the historian who writes historical books. Wang Du's second brother Wang Tong, who is said to be the teacher of the emperor's grandson, has now gone out again, accepted the emperor's official award, and went out of the mountain to be the grandson of the emperor's grandson to wash horses. Right now, Wang Tong is in the army of the imperial grandson. It is precisely because of this relationship that Wang Du was elected by various families, and the brother Wang Tong contacted the grandson, and proposed that the major families in Taiyuan, as well as the famous merchants, the major commercial houses, and the Confucian scholars and famous monks in Hedong held a banquet to welcome the imperial grandson in the Jin Temple.

This welcoming banquet from all walks of life in Taiyuan is obviously not so simple, Yi Feng already knows that these people want to take this opportunity to get closer to the emperor's grandson, and the most important thing is to take a fancy to the King of Han and the Hedong industry under his command in Yi Feng's hands. It's a huge piece of the pie, and the major families want a piece of it. Yi Feng is very happy with their enthusiasm, and he can naturally make a profit by selling these real estate to cash out, and at the same time, he can also take this opportunity to have some relationship with some wealthy families in Hedong.

Wang Du pulled his brother Wang Tong, and the other three brothers Wang Ning, Wang Ji, and Wang Jing also stood aside, in addition, the major clans in Taiyuan City were also standing there, and the patriarchs of the Pei family, the Liu family, the Wei family, the Liu family, the Wu family and other major families came in person. In front of Wang Du, there is a white tiger jade sculpture carved from a large piece of jade, which is a valuable gift prepared by the major families and major commercial houses, ready to be presented to the imperial grandson later.

Wang Du looked at the young imperial grandson from afar, and his heart was full of excitement. Wang Du is the eldest son in the family, and there are five brothers, all of whom have been studying since childhood. Their father, Wang Long, is famous for Confucianism, more than 1,000 professors, after the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, he was called as a doctor of the country, and later served as a county commander, quite famous, and the popularity is very high. But going back up, Wang Du's grandfather, great-grandfather, great-great-grandfather, etc., in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, all held prominent positions, assassins, governors, and several generations had the title of duke and marquis. However, after entering the Sui Dynasty, the Wang family was in the imperial court, but their official career was not as good as before. Grandfather and father became famous Confucians at that time, and when they reached their brother's generation, several brothers were also learned, among which the second brother became a great Confucian, Longmen taught, gathered and listened to thousands of people, and the third brother was extremely researched in history, but the second brother Wang Tong was the highest only to do the king of Shu to speak, a county and county order, and the third brother was just a book. Academically, the Wang family can be said to be stronger from generation to generation, but in terms of official career, the Wang family is going downhill, and the decline is extremely serious.

Wang Du is the eldest son, and now he is the head of the family and the patriarch, and he is very worried about this. But after Sui won the world, a big Kanto valve like the Wang family has actually been suppressed, and his former status is no longer there. Good reading of books and good academic research are not of much use to politics. He has always been worried, very worried that if this continues, the Wang family will become weaker and weaker. Especially after experiencing Yang Liang's previous two years in Taiyuan, Wang Du felt more and more deeply. There is no one in the court, no matter how famous the Wang family is, it is just a fat sheep and fat pig in the eyes of the King of Han. He also once advised the second and third brothers not to focus on teaching and studying all the time, but also to be pragmatic, seek some real power to do official positions, and make friends in the court. But these two brothers are good at learning, but when it comes to being officials, they can't do it.

When he heard that the imperial grandson was still living among the people, he felt that the opportunity had come when he ran from Yanshan to Longmen several times to attend classes under his second brother. Later, sure enough, the second brother's former observer disciple turned out to be the emperor's grandson who lived among the people, and then became the emperor's grandson. Hearing that the emperor ordered the second brother to give the grandson as the grandson to wash the horse and the second brother actually wanted to refuse, Wang Du was really anxious to jump his feet, ran all the way from Taiyuan to Longmen, and talked for seven days and eight nights, before finally persuading this brother who just wanted to teach and learn with peace of mind to accept the appointment. Wang Du knew very well that the official position of this grandson washing horses was completely different from the attendant of the king of Shu that his brother once served.

The king of Shu said that he and the grandson washed the horse, both of which were subordinate officials, but one was just a prince, and the other was the emperor's grandson, even if there was a crown prince on the emperor's grandson, but a prince could be added, and that was also a prince, how could this be the same. As long as you wait until the imperial grandson succeeds to the throne, or even wait until the grandson becomes the crown prince, even if it is just the grandson, this is completely different, following a prince and following a prince are essentially different. The prince is also a king, and the prince is only a minister. The Wang family lacked a strong backer, but it turned out that they couldn't find the mountain gate with a pig's head, and some wealthy nobles, although they said that they were willing to shelter them on the surface, but they were naked to suck their blood.

Yang Liang has been in Bingzhou for two years, and the biggest loss in Taiyuan City is the Wang family. Fields, shops, workshops, in short, as long as they are valuable and can make money, Yang Liang has intervened. If it weren't for the rise of Huaihuang later, Wang Du had a keen eye, started early, shifted his focus to the Huaihuang market early, and made a lot of money by doing Huaihuang's business, which could be regarded as stopping the loss taken away by Yang Liang.

Fortunately, Yang Liang was too crazy and dared to attack Taisun. Fortunately, not only was the grandson not calculated, but Yang Liang was taken down.

Thinking of this, a wave of hope rose in Yang Liang's heart. Yang Liang will not come back in the future, his brother became the teacher of the grandson, and became the grandson of the horse, with this relationship, the Wang family has the opportunity to fight for refuge in the grandson. There are also two brothers who have been studying at home, well, this time let them follow the second brother to follow His Royal Highness Taisun, and it is enough for the family to have their own host.
