Chapter 16: The Six Ladies of the Wang Family

As soon as Huo Wenlin finished introducing, Li Ran looked at Huo Wenlin and smiled: "I'm a little tired, the scenery over there is good, I'll rest there." ”

Huo Wenlin was stunned, and almost couldn't react.

She has been a guest for more than ten years, and it is the first time she has met Li Ran like this, and she bluntly said that she was tired and wanted to rest first.

Well, she's been all the way, and it's really time to be tired.

After Li Ran and Huo Wenlin finished speaking, without waiting for her to answer, they had already walked over and untied their cloaks.

In the palace of the king of Hejian County, the girls who can point out the hospitality are all very eye-catching, and without Huo Wenlin's orders, they have already stepped forward, took Li Ran's cloak, and then waited for Li Ran to sit down.

The little ladies in the warm pavilion all opened their eyes wide and stared at Li Ran.

"I'll go with her." Wang Liuniang took a step forward, gently pulled Laho Wenlin, and said in a low voice.

Huo Wenlin was obviously relieved, looked at Wang Ji with grateful eyes, and nodded again and again.

The sixth sister of the Wang family is the safest, and the Wang family has a lot of friendship with the girl of the Li family, and the sixth sister of the Wang family is willing to go over to accompany her, which is very reassuring.

Wang Ji walked over and sat down next to Li Ran.

Li Ran remembered this sixth lady of the Wang family.

This sixth lady has light eyebrows and eyes, and a Tsinghua temperament, which is unforgettable at a glance.

"Before the palace banquet in Chongyang, I got a cold and was not very comfortable, so I didn't go, and I couldn't see the girl." Wang Ji's politeness was faintly respectful.

Li Ran smiled, she didn't know how to answer.

Socializing is one of the things she has never been able to learn well.

"My family's ancestral home is Jinling." Facing Li Ran's polite but detached smile, Wang Ji explained with some hesitation.

Li Ran then smiled.

She doesn't know what she wants to express when she says about her ancestral hometown of Jinling, or is this the custom here, introduce her ancestral home first when you meet?

"Haven't you heard of the Jinling royal family?" Wang Ji saw that Li Ran's smile remained unchanged and wondered.

"Before I arrived at the Marquis of Chang'an's Mansion, I had only read a few poetry collections, and I had never met outsiders, sorry." Li Ran's eyelids drooped slightly.

Wang was stunned, and for a moment, tears burst out of his eyes, and he hurriedly lowered his head and sipped tea to cover up.

Li Ran looked sideways at Wang Qi, who suddenly lost his temper, and frowned slightly.

Seeing her like this, she is very concerned about herself, does she have anything to do with her?

"My great-grandfather is Renzong's husband, the official title of Prince Taifu, and his nickname is Wenzhong, which is a word personally chosen by Renzong.

My eldest Weng Weng was the deputy minister at the time, stationed in Xingrong Pass, and died in Xingrong Pass with my uncle.

Erweng Weng served by Renzong's side, and when Renzong was martyred, Erweng's family also took poison and martyred the country together. Wang Ji looked at Li Ran, and his voice was slow and deep.

Li Ran was stunned when she heard this, and straightened up, but she didn't know what to say.

"My Weng Weng is the third son of my great-grandfather, my mother-in-law, Mrs. An, from Luoyang's family, Empress Renzong, and the cousin of the girl's grandmother. My mother-in-law and the girl's grandmother, the same grandfather. Wang Ji continued.

"An home, in Luoyang?" Li Ran looked at Wang Qi, and couldn't tell what she felt in her heart, is this a relative?

She never had relatives.

"An's started with military merits in the former Liang Xingqing period, and after nearly three hundred years, he was the border of the country and was known as the first general in the world.

A year before the city of Rong'an was broken, the An clan was loyal to the country, and they had been killed and wounded......"

Wang Ju's throat choked for a moment before he continued: "Now, there is no more home. ”

Li Ran was stunned for a moment and sighed lowly.

"The day before you arrived in the capital, Weng Weng only knew about you." Wang Ji also sighed.

Knowing that there was a day when she weng and his wife rested very late.

"I shouldn't have been born, I shouldn't have survived, and my mother shouldn't have survived." Li Ran met Wang Ji's gaze.

"Those things in Rong'an City are not the princess's fault, let alone yours, these are the words of the wife." Wang's voice was low and soft.

Li Ran hummed lowly.

That princess is a really poor weak woman, and the ten or so months she lives are about worse than death.

"You're in the Chang'an Hou Mansion, are you okay?" The two were silent for a moment, and Wang Ji asked with something in his words.

"Very good." Li Ran smiled, "That's already good, thank you." ”

"That's good." Wang Ji looked at Li Ran, who was sipping tea with his eyelids down, and was trying to think of what to say, Li Ran looked up at her, "Can you tell me about the Hou family in Chang'an?" ”

"Oh? Good. Wang Ji subconsciously glanced at Li Qingrou, the third lady of the Chang'an Marquis Mansion, who was talking angrily.

Li Ran lowered her eyes and sipped her tea, didn't pay attention to Wang Ji's glance, and didn't pay attention to the words that floated over from time to time.

"The Li family is a native of Beijing, Chang'an's grandfather died early, grandmother Mrs. Tao is a stable woman, Mrs. Chen is Mrs. Tao picked up home, when her daughter raised a child daughter-in-law, Mrs. Chen came to the Li family, I heard that she was only six or seven years old.

I heard that at first, Mrs. Chen learned to be a stable woman from Mrs. Tao.

Once, Mrs. Tao delivered a baby to a wealthy family, and it was difficult to give birth, and Mrs. Tao saved the adult, but failed to keep the child, which was a boy.

The three sons and daughters-in-law of the family gave birth to six daughters, this was the first son, but they didn't survive, and the old lady of the family was annoyed and let people beat Mrs. Tao hard.

Mrs. Tao was carried back and died within a few days, leaving her last words before she died, not allowing Mrs. Chen to be a stable woman again.

When Mrs. Tao died, Mrs. Chen was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and Chang'anhou's father was an only son, two years younger than Mrs. Chen.

I heard that Mrs. Chen did almost everything back then, helped in the cat food farm, washed clothes in Perfume Lane, cried and mourned, sold flowers and cigarette pills along the street.

When Mrs. Chen was eighteen years old, she asked her neighbors to be witnesses, and became close to Chang'anhou's father, and gave birth to Chang'anhou the following year.

When the Marquis of Chang'an was seven or eight years old, the emperor ......"

Wang Ji paused and explained a few words.

"At that time, the world had been in chaos for decades, you came and went here, and the banner of the city changed several times, until Taizu occupied this place, and it was not settled down.

Taizu settled here in autumn, and in the spring of the following year, Taizu recruited family members, and anyone over ten years old could sign up.

Chang'an Hou lied that he was ten years old, went to register, and on the day he picked someone, the emperor was also there, and he happened to see Chang'an Hou, so he took him with him and made a small servant.

The Marquis of Chang'an waited by the emperor's side for seven years, and later, the emperor let him join the army, starting as a ten-commander, and fought everywhere, until last year, when he returned to the capital to take charge of the Gyeonggi camp and the defense of the capital.

The emperor treats the Marquis of Chang'an very well, and Weng Weng said that the person the emperor favors and trusts the most is the Marquis of Chang'an. ”

Wang Ji paused, looked at Li Ran, and Li Ran listened attentively.

"Mrs. Zhang is also a child daughter-in-law, and when Mrs. Chen picked Mrs. Zhang home, Mrs. Zhang was only four or five years old.

When Chang'an Hou was seventeen years old, he became close to Mrs. Zhang.

At that time, Chang'anhou was only a centurion, and after getting married, Mrs. Zhang has been taking care of Chang'anhou like a personal soldier.

In the Battle of Liuhe, the emperor was defeated, and the entire army of the Marquis of Chang'an was annihilated.

Mrs. Zhang said that she wanted to see people alive and corpses when she died, so she searched for a night and a day in the pile of dead people alone, and carried Chang'an Hou, who still had a breath of air, back.

Chang'an Hou and his wife are truly through the same life and death. ”

Li Ran snorted softly.

With such a past of life and death and tribulation, such kindness, I still have her!

Man!

"The family that killed Mrs. Tao, the grandmother of the Marquis of Chang'an, after the Marquis of Chang'an became the emperor's personal servant, the family knelt in front of Mrs. Chen's door and pleaded guilty."

Wang Ji continued.

Mrs. Chen said that she didn't want to mention the past, but she didn't want to see that family in the capital again.

The family sold their house and land and moved away, and I heard that they had moved far away.

In this matter, Mrs. Chen's generosity is sharp, this is my wife's words.

Before Taizu became emperor, the city was besieged two or three times.

Once, Taizu led the troops outside, the city was empty, and it was very critical, Mrs. Chen took the neighbors to help defend the city, and Mrs. Chen herself went to the city to fight for a day and a night.

Even the emperor, everyone respects her very much. ”

Wang Ji said, his eyes falling on Li Ran's dirty skirt.

In the matter of treating this girl, so far, what Mrs. Chen has done is all a place that makes people pout.

"Do you know about Rong'an City?" Li Ran hesitated, looked at Wang Ji and asked.

"I don't know much." Wang Ji sighed lowly, "Princess Leping was rewarded by the emperor to the Marquis of Chang'an. This matter, the emperor did not do it properly, Weng Weng said, and the emperor himself said it. ”

Wang Ji paused, looked at Li Ran, and lowered his voice, "Daddy said that the emperor's prank is really harmful. ”

Li Ran's eyebrows raised when she heard this, could it be that this tragedy was just because of the emperor's prank?

Wang Ji looked at Li Ran's raised eyebrows and smiled wryly.

"Just gossip.

I heard that the emperor thought that the Marquis of Chang'an did not understand the customs, Princess Leping was famous for her outstanding style, and the emperor rewarded the princess to the Marquis of Chang'an, saying that it was for him to appreciate what it was to appreciate the customs. ”

Li Ran's eyes narrowed slightly.

What a pair of bastards!

"I don't know anything else. I heard that before the city of Rong'an was broken, the husband and wife of Chang'an Hou had a good relationship, and after that. Wang Ji paused, "Li Sanniang is half a year older than you, and after her, Mrs. Zhang has nothing to do." ”

Li Ran exhaled slowly.

It seems that this Chang'an Marquis, after appreciating the customs, can't go back.

You really deserve it!

"Linglong Fang, have you been there?" Li Ran glanced at the corners of her skirt, thinking about the cloak and respect given to her by Linglong Fang, and changed the topic.

"I've been there, and almost everyone in the capital is a frequent visitor to Linglongfang.

The head office of Linglong Fang is in Rong'an City. However, since the destruction of Rong'an City, the biggest and best shop in Linglong Fang has been moved to this city. Every year, the new colors and new styles are also the first to come out of the Linglong Fang here.

For nearly 100 years, Linglong Fang has been the best embroidery workshop and garment workshop in the world. ”

Wang Ji looked at Li Ran with a clear face.

"Not only Linglong Fang, but the entire Rong'an City, as well as people like us, are very grateful to Renzong."

"Because of the dedication of the city?" Li Ran smiled slightly.

This sixth lady of the Wang family is really smart and keen.

"It's not just about dedication. Before the dedication of the city, Renzong issued a decree, saying that the replacement of the country is like the birth, old age, sickness and death of people, and the Liang has enjoyed the country for more than 400 years, and the number of qi has been exhausted, and the subjects should not do more useless things.

The decree also said that no matter what dynasty or country, the people are the same people, and doing their best for the people means being loyal to the country.

Because of this will, Weng Weng and Ah Daddy were called to join the new dynasty after the country was broken. ”

Li Ran snorted.

It's really worthy of this benevolent word, this will, and solves the problem of face for I don't know how many people. Of course, it also brought her a lot of gratitude.

But this gratitude is not all a good thing, for her, she is too popular, and she will be roasted to death.
