Cultivation begins with the mysterious little tripod

It seems to be..." The old man scratched his head and frowned for a moment, apparently unable to remember.

But at this time, laughter came from two people in the tavern, but they were two Confucian scholars who were drinking here.

One of them laughed and said:

"He Laozhang, it seems that you are getting old and you have even forgotten the name of our benefactor in Wutong Town. The number one scholar in Wang Yi decades ago was famous all over the country. According to the records in the book, he was the one who once lived here. Descendants of the old place of Wutong Village."

"Oh, look at my memory, yes, the number one scholar is called Wang Yi." Mr. He looked at the Confucian scholar with gratitude, patted his thigh, and smiled.

"It seems that the two brothers also know the Wang family very well. How about coming over to have a drink with me? I will pay for the drinks and side dishes." Wang Fu saw the two Confucian scholars who looked like they were very talented. They seemed to be interested in Wutong Town. The Wang family knew a lot about him and immediately invited him with a smile.

The two Confucian scholars looked at each other. When they heard that someone was paying for the drinks, they also smiled. After thinking about it, they came over with the wine bottle.

"In that case, thank you for your hospitality." The two of them bowed to Wang Fu first, and then sat at the same table with Wang Fu with smiles on their faces.

"Old man, please give these two brothers two jugs of good wine on the table, and two dishes of side dishes to go with the wine." Wang Fu took out a piece of silver and put it on the table, looking like he was wealthy.

When He Laozhang saw the silver, his eyes gleamed and he immediately went to prepare.

When the two Confucian scholars saw that Wang Fu was so generous, they became cautious. One of the Confucian scholars couldn't help but said:

"The two of us saw my brother asking about the Wang family. I wonder what he is doing? Although these things are not a secret, the Wang family is powerful. Wang Yi, the number one scholar, was the former Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He held a high and powerful position. Even though he has been in power for ten years, He has retired and returned to his hometown, and died of illness a few years ago, but the Wang family is still one of the top three aristocratic families in Yongnan County. The two of us see that your brother looks strange. If your brother does not tell me the reason for your identity, the two of us will even After eating your wine, I don’t dare to talk about the Wang family.”

"It's me, Meng Lang, dissatisfied with you two. My surname is also Wang. My ancestors were also from Wutong Village. However, due to conflicts with my family, they moved away from home. We haven't had any contact with each other for more than a hundred years. But this time, somehow, we all The letter of ancestor worship fell into the hands of my father. Due to illness, my father could not travel far, so he asked me to come to Wutong Village for a trip. However, I am very unfamiliar with the current Wang family, so I arrived at Wutong Town early, and I was terrified. Then he stood at the door of the Wang Family Ancestral Hall, at a loss. "Wang Fu sighed, looking hesitant.

"I see. I didn't expect that Xiongtai is actually a member of the Wang family. We are disrespectful. In this way, the two of us have no scruples. We just want to tell Xiongtai about the great achievements of the Wang family in Wutong Town." The two Confucian scholars heard that Wang Fu At first, the two of them looked at each other and saw that Wang Fu spoke and behaved in the same manner as everyone else, and there was no doubt in their hearts.

At this time, Mr. He just brought the drinks and dishes. One of the Confucian scholars immediately uncorked a wine pot and poured wine into three cups. As for Mr. He, there were more and more guests in the tavern, and he was overwhelmed. You can still take care of Wang Fu.

After the Confucian scholar took a sip of the wine, he began to say:

"Because of our status as scholars and the fact that we are both from Wutong Town, we know a lot about the Wang family. Needless to say, Wang Yishangshu, under the protection of this important man, the Wang family has flourished. As early as decades ago, The Wang family was moved to Yongnan County, and Wutong Town was changed into the Wang Family Ancestral Temple. Only on the day of ancestor worship every year, will the direct descendants of the Wang family come to worship. "

"Although the Wang family has not produced any high-ranking officials since Wang Shangshu, the foundation left by that Shangshu to the Wang family is extremely promising. Some of the small officials in the townships and counties have the shadow of the Wang family. This time, Wang Guangzu, the second-ranked king, was directly promoted to the imperial family. "Dian is the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and many people speculate that it is related to Wang Shangshu's old ministry, and some even speculate that this Minister Wang is the next candidate for the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel."

"Of course, these are just guesses."

"Hey, let's tell Brother Wang about the Wang family's ancestor worship this time."

"After all, the information Mr. He heard from hearsay is not as accurate as the information in our circle of scholars."

"You two, please speak. I am all ears." Wang Fu took a sip of wine and motioned for the two of them to continue.

The two Confucian scholars drank a cup together, moistened their throats, and continued what you said, while I continued to tell.

"It is rumored that this is the second high-ranking official of the Wang family after the Minister, so the scale of the ancestor worship is so large. I guess that the letter of ancestor worship that Brother Wang received was also from the hand of this Wang Shilang. "

"It is said that there are two important figures from the Wang family who came to the Wang Family Ancestral Temple in Wutong Town to worship their ancestors this time. One of them is Shilang Wang, and the other is Wang Shilang's sister. This woman is also a strange woman. She is good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Proficient, I heard that I have made an engagement with the son of the prime minister of the dynasty, and after this ancestor worship, the marriage will be consummated. "

"Otherwise, the county guard wouldn't have come in person..."

"Listening to the words of the two brothers, these two people seem to be young. They should not be the heads of the Wang family. I wonder why the head of the Wang family didn't come?" Wang Fu was confused. He actually suspected that this so-called Wang family was Queen Wang Feng. However, Wang Feng had already settled in other places a hundred years ago, and the two places were far apart.

What's more, if he is really a descendant of Wang Feng, why would he build the Wang family's ancestral hall on his old house of Wang Fu? Although Wang Feng's grandfather and his grandfather were brothers, this should not be the case no matter what.

Where did the Wang family come from?

Could it be Xiao Yao?

Thinking of this, Wang Fu's heart jumped, but he became uneasy.

"That's not very clear. But we heard that many direct descendants of the Wang family will suffer from a blood disease in the past hundred years, and they will not live beyond the age of 40, and there is no cure. The head of this generation is called Wang Ting. Maybe he was infected with the disease and needs to stay in another place called Wangjiabao for treatment all year round. That's why he didn't come." The two shook their heads.

"Blood disease? Wangjiabao? Didn't you say that the Wang family has already settled down in Yongnan County City?" Wang Fu raised his eyebrows slightly.

"This... Brother, you really make it difficult for us. We have only heard of the name of Wangjiabao. We don't know where it is or what it looks like. As for the blood disease, we heard about it. The Wang family has not clarified it. It's all speculation." The two felt their hearts tighten for no reason, and shook their heads with a bitter smile in fear.

"So that's how it is. It's me who is being careless." Wang Fu saw the two and quickly bowed his hands to show his apology. He remembered that this Wang family might be related to Wang Yao, but he accidentally leaked a bit of momentum. Although there was no hostility, it was enough to make ordinary people feel short of breath.

Wang Fu quickly calmed the fear of the two with his spiritual sense and transmitted the voice:

"Brothers, have you ever heard of the name Wang Feng? Or Wang Yao?"

"Wang Feng? Wang Yao?" The two stabilized.

"I seem to have some impression of the name Wang Feng, as if I have heard it somewhere..." One of the Confucian scholars murmured subconsciously.

"Brother Wang, what is the origin of these two? Why don't you tell us, maybe we can remember it." The other Confucian scholar looked at Wang Fu.

Seeing this thoughtful look, Wang Fu immediately felt hopeful and said:

"These two people lived more than a hundred years ago. My father once mentioned them to me. They seem to be the ancestors of my Wang family. They are also the two names that my father wants to verify."

"More than a hundred years ago..." After the two Confucian scholars murmured, their eyes lit up almost at the same time.

He immediately said:

"Brother Wang mentioned more than a hundred years, and we two remembered it. Wang Yao has never heard of it, but the name "Wang Feng" we two have seen in the handwriting of a teacher in the Wang family who is engaged in teaching and educating people."

"As Brother Wang said, it is a deceased ancestor of the Wang family. It seems to be Wang Yi, the father of Shangshu Wang..."

Listening to this, Wang Fu's face showed surprise, and his heart was churning.

Is he wrong? This Wang family is the descendant of Wang Feng?

…

An hour later, three exquisite sedan chairs appeared in Wutong Town, escorted by dozens of officers and soldiers and surrounded by many ethnic minorities, and stopped in front of the Wutong tree in the center of the town.
