Chapter 5: The Wealthy Family (II)
Wang Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Wang Yan would treat him as a freak.
Seeing that Wang Yan didn't mind, he immediately went straight to the point and said: "Father, I always hear others call you on weekdays, and the child only knows his father's words, but he still doesn't know his father's name." And as a descendant of the Wang family, I don't know who my ancestors are, so I am really ashamed, and I ask my father to make it clear. β
"Good, good, very good......" Hearing Wang Xu's words, Wang Yan was so excited that he said three good words in a row, and his face was full of relief.
Then, he hugged Wang Xu hard with his left hand, and laughed softly: "What's wrong with me?" It's my father's fault, but you don't have to blame him. I didn't expect you to be so sensible at such a young age. Good! Let me tell you my name as a Father. β
Speaking of this, Wang Xu found that Wang Yan's expression gradually became stricter. After pondering for a moment, he said earnestly: "My father's name is Wang Yan, and our Shanyang Gaoping Wang family has been an official eunuch for generations, and it is a big family. Your grandfather, that is, my father's name is Wang Chang, and his son Shumao was the prime minister of Liu Xi, the king of Qi. Well! King Qi's Xiangguo is equivalent to a Taishou position, do you know what Taishou is? β
"Father, just say it, the child has heard people talk about it, it seems that he is a big official who can control many people!" Wang Xu pretended to be immature and patted his chest and said proudly.
"Yes! The same can be said. In that case, then the Father will explain it to you after talking about it. Wang Yan rubbed his beloved son's head, smiled and continued: "Later, your grandfather was promoted to the rank of Sili Lieutenant because of his talent, Nanyang Taishou and other positions, and he was worshiped as Shang Shuling four times. A few years ago, he was transferred to the post of Changle Guard, and soon after he was promoted to Sikong, ranking among the three princes of the dynasty. β
"And your great-grandfather Wang Gong, the word Bozong. He once served as the assassin of Qingzhou, and was worshiped by Emperor An as a scholar because of his merits, and then successively served as a lieutenant of Sili and a Taishou of Runan. In the first year of Yongjian, he was promoted to the servant, and then he was transferred to Taichang, and Yongjian moved to Sikong in the fourth year, ranking as the third duke. Later, he was dismissed due to the earthquake, but Yonghe was promoted to captain in the first year, but unfortunately died of illness five years later! β
Speaking of this, Wang Yan smiled proudly before he continued: "As for the earlier ancestors, I won't tell you one by one." In short, our Wang family is a wealthy family, and our protΓ©gΓ©s are all over the world. In the future, you can come to my study and look at the family tree! It is described in more detail. β
After listening to so much, Wang Xu finally understood a lot of things he wanted to know. At least one thing he was sure of was that he had been reincarnated in ancient times, and very early. Because the names of these official positions seem to be exactly the same as those of the ancient Han Dynasty.
It's a pity that the only specific era name he heard was the first year of Yongjian, but he didn't know what year the first year of Yongjian was, and that was when he was his great-grandfather.
After thinking about it for a while, Wang Xu continued to pretend to be cute. With a pair of big eyes open, his milk voice pretended to be curious: "Father, what is the first year of Yongjian?" What year is it? What year was the child born? β
"The first year of Yongjian is the name of the era, and it is something that records time. As for now, it's the second year of Xiping, and you're born in the third year of Jianning! After speaking, Wang Yan couldn't help patting Wang Xu's head, and praised with a smile: "I didn't expect the little guy to care about his birthday, not bad!" There is a lot of interest. β
No matter how happy Wang Yan was at the moment, Wang Xu was instantly stunned, and his heart had already set off a storm because of his father's answer.
Oh, my God! Sure enough, it was the Han Dynasty, but what shocked him even more was that it was actually the second year of Emperor Xiping of the Han Dynasty. Wang Xu also knows a little bit about history, especially this famous historical period. Isn't the second year of Emperor Xiping of the Han Dynasty 173 AD? That is, 11 years before the Yellow Turban Uprising?
As the information of this era gradually appeared in Wang Xu's mind, he thought of Wang Yan's words before. His eyes lit up suddenly, and he couldn't help but blurt out: "Father, do I have an uncle named Wang Qian?" β
"Yes! is his father's half-brother, your own uncle is called Wang Qian! I often come to see you on weekdays, and I like to kiss you. You said that his beard poked you painfully, so it was your own uncle who ran away when you saw him! β
As soon as the words fell, Wang Yan glanced at Wang Xu suspiciously. "I wonder how the child knows his name?"
"Huh?" Wang Xu was stunned for a moment, then knew that he had lost his words, and hurriedly prevaricated: "Oh! It's because the child seems to have heard the elders talk about this name on weekdays, so he asked! β
said, and deliberately dissatisfied: "I didn't expect that uncle who always loves to tease me is my own uncle!" He's so annoying. β
"Huh! You kid, your uncle likes you to tease you! β
After fooling the past, Wang Xu had no time to pay attention to Wang Yan, and his heart was in the midst of turning over the river and the sea.
Oh, my God! Sure enough, I guessed it right. Wang Gong, Wang Chang, Wang Qian, who are familiar with "Zizhi Tongjian" and "Book of the Later Han", how can they not know this Wang family in Gaoping, Shanyang. Although it gradually declined in the early days of the Three Kingdoms, there was no talent for governing the country and securing the country. But Wang Qian has a son who is a celebrity through the ages, and when he was studying, he also learned his poems in textbooks. That's Wang Cang, one of the seven sons of Jian'an!
It's just that he shouldn't have been born yet, and I remember that he seems to have been born in 177 A.D. I can't imagine that after I became a prince like Wang Cang, I don't know if anyone will describe myself like this in the future. Alas! God, you're not kidding me! I like the Three Kingdoms, and as a result, you really took advantage of the solar eclipse to get me to the end of the Han Dynasty......
Seeing that Wang Xu's expression was uncertain and he had been stunned and did not speak, Wang Yan immediately asked with concern, "What's wrong?" Xu'er's face is not good, but what is uncomfortable? β
Wang Xu, who was summoned back to his senses, shook his head again and again, he was a little excited at the moment, but he was sad when he thought of his previous life, and he was in a contradiction.
However, after all, he has been thinking about it for three whole years, and he has also recognized the reality. Therefore, he can still control his feelings very well, looking at Wang Yan's concerned eyes, he smiled to himself and said, "It's okay!" I just wanted to memorize what my father told me! β
After speaking, without waiting for Wang Yan to speak, he hurriedly changed the topic: "Can the father tell the child about the current situation of our family?" β
"Hahaha...... I'm really human! You already know so many things at the age of three, good! As a father, I will talk to you today. Hearing Wang Xu's question, Wang Yan was immediately successfully attracted to attention.
After he lowered his head and thought for a moment, he slowly continued: "Our room is the most descendant of the Gaoping royal family, and this is because of the merits of your great-grandfather and grandfather. It's just that your grandfather died before you were born, so you didn't get to see each other in the end. If only your grandfather could see you so clever and clever! β
