Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

Upon learning that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was coming to express condolences in person, the Wang family's residence suddenly became busy again.

First, dozens of domestic servants walked out with sticks in their hands, trying to clear the entrance hall of the mansion. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the crown prince, came to express condolences in person, but it was always difficult to enter the house through the side door.

However, because there were so many guests who came to express condolences, the front door of Wang's house was already jammed with cars and horses.

In such a chaotic and noisy environment, the guests and servants were already full of irritability, and they were pushed and expelled by the powerful slaves who rushed out of the house. They couldn't help but start fighting and arguing, making the door even more chaotic.

The sound of fighting and noise reached the house, which immediately made the Wang family even more sad, angry and angry. They couldn't help but mobilize more slaves to rush out to suppress the riot and expel the idlers.

Fortunately, the guests were not all indifferent. It was a courtesy to come to express condolences, but there was no point in making a big fuss at someone else's funeral. So under their own restraints, the situation gradually came under control, and a passage for carriages and horses to enter and exit was cleared.

"Why is Mr. Anping going out? There is no need for you to go out to pay homage to the nobles. Please return to your tent quickly..."

There was a moment of silence in front of the door, but the inner courtyard became noisy again. Wang Mao, the son of Wang Meng, walked out in mourning clothes, preparing to welcome the prince, but he was quickly pushed back by some polite guests.

At this time, the guests who had entered the house to express their condolences also needed to form queues to welcome the prince. However, due to the official rank of each guest and the endless debates and disputes, they could not be arranged in queues.

In fact, when a minister of Wang Meng's level dies, the court will send officials who are familiar with etiquette to preside over the funeral. However, Wang Meng passed away yesterday. Because of his close relationship with Daxingtai, the imperial court also wanted to send envoys to Huazhou to inquire about the specifications of Ai Rong, so it has not yet appointed a ceremony officer to preside over the ceremony.

Even if there are no ceremonial officers sent by the imperial court, most wealthy families still have tribesmen who are familiar with human relations and allusions to greet and support them first. However, Wang Meng's family is suddenly more expensive than the Western Dynasty, and the quality of the tribesmen is still difficult to match such a human scene. It is inevitable for a while All kinds of chaos.

With the help of Lu Rou and others who came to express their condolences, the guests in the house finally lined up in order. However, as soon as they were listed here, there were visitors from the East Palace hurriedly walking in outside the house, and they called out anxiously. Zhuangyong quickly went out to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Zhanhu.

It turned out that the prince got out of his car and drove over on foot in order to express his respect for Mr. Wang. As a result, there were too many cars and horses on the street, and the guards of the East Palace who were accompanying him could not spread out. In order to ensure the prince's safety, they had no choice but to rush into the house. Recruit people to assist.

Hearing the call from the visitor in the East Palace, Li Tai, who was standing in the queue, suddenly became happy and had bad intentions in his heart. This prince is really addicted to extravagant drama, fearing that his presence is not high enough. If by chance there is some drama involving a white dragon fish suit today, he might work with Wang Meng to get things done.

He was secretly complaining here, but others still attached great importance to the safety of His Highness the Crown Prince, especially those members of the Yuan family. Regardless of whether they were brave or intimidating, they strode out to greet him one by one.

Li Tai slowly walked out of the Wang family's house with the others, and faintly heard an emotional cry among the various shouts to maintain order.

Not long after, Prince Yuan Qin, dressed in plain robes, walked towards the front door of the Wang family, escorted by the royal family soldiers. As he walked, he wiped his tears and beat his chest, looking very sad. Even Li Tai felt his nose was a little sore when he saw this scene, even though he knew it was a deliberate act.

Everyone greeted the prince in front of the door, but the prince just turned a blind eye and staggered into the royal residence. He lowered his eyes and saw Wang Meng's grandson Wang Bi who was worshiping inside the door. He pulled him up and put him in his arms, with a tear in his nose. Tears welled up together: "Mr. Xianyang, it's too late for me to be alone. Mr. Wang... Although you have no ancestors or fathers, you are not alone. In the matter, you still have relatives and disciples who you can rely on to serve the country and the family. Everyone needs to express their condolences!”

Li Tai stood aside and watched with cold eyes as the prince's nose burst into tears. The young man Wang Bi who was held tightly in his arms began to blush, and he felt that the prince's act was a bit too much.

However, this kind of posturing cannot be said to be completely ineffective. This young man, Wang Bi, was the son of Wang Li, the eldest son of Wang Meng. He was also the consort of the dynasty and married the daughter of Emperor Yuan Baoju.

Yuwen Taijiu suppressed the Bafu for a long time and arranged all his relatives and children as generals of the imperial army to control the Chang'an court and the royal family. The Wang family belonged to this group. Naturally, the emperor tried his best to win over these generals of the Forbidden Army who were in control of their own property and life.

For example, the young man in front of him, Wang Bi, was certainly a relative of the Daxingtai uncle clan, but he was also the son-in-law of the Emperor of the Western Wei Dynasty. In terms of pure kinship, of course the latter was closer. Seeing the prince mourning and mourning so hard, maybe he would be moved and follow his father-in-law and brother-in-law to do the same.

Even if he can't be won over, the prince's behavior is full of eye candy. If it falls in Shiliu's eyes, it will inevitably give rise to many other kinds of reverie. Even if these operations are not enough to reverse the general trend of the emperor's weak power, if it can add obstacles to Yuwentai, the prince will definitely be very happy.

Thinking of this, Li Tai couldn't help but lament that the two sons-in-law were not very good people. One watched his father-in-law being bullied and did not dare to help, while the other was willing to do anything as long as he could make his father-in-law uncomfortable.

Thinking of this, Li Tai felt more and more that Dugu Xin was really discerning in choosing him as his son-in-law. No matter what he did, he was better than the two guys in front of him.

After entering the mourning hall to express condolences, the prince stopped crying, sat down in the big tent under the crowd's obedience, and started chatting with the guests in the tent.

Under the introduction of Yuan Jihai, Li Tai bravely stepped forward to pay his respects. When the prince saw him, a smile appeared on his face and his attitude was quite kind: "Li Zheng, we meet again. This time there is no need to come and go in a hurry. Come and sit down at the table, let me take a closer look at your reputation as a talented person!"

"People's words are inevitably exaggerated, ridiculous, and untrue. A humble minister is really unworthy of being a servant..."

When Li Tai heard this, he suddenly felt a little dizzy, and he quickly raised his hands and said humbly.

"You don't need to be too humble in front of me, Mr. Li. Although we don't get along with each other, I know you very well! At the auspicious ceremony in Huazhou City a few months ago, I saw with my own eyes how generous and generous the people were and praised me. A true young talent. If it weren't for Li Zheng, you would still be busy with other people's affairs. At that time, I would have called you into the hall to meet and praise you."

The prince's interest in Li Tai was still undiminished, and he pointed to the empty seat next to him. After seeing Li Tai sit down at the table, he nodded with satisfaction, and then turned to the warm attention Li Tai received on the day of the wedding at home. Describe a similar situation.

Many of the guests in the tent had gone to Huazhou for a wedding banquet and knew about the situation that day. However, seeing the prince's obvious attitude of expressing his admiration and affection for Li Tai, they couldn't help but agree with him.

Li Tai, who was at the center of the topic, really couldn't be happy. He was a little unsure about what kind of style this prince was into and why he suddenly showed so much interest in him. Could he still remember his old grudge about losing face to him at the Grand Reading last year? Is there an opportunity to instigate and win over this Taiwanese loyal man?

Lu Rou could see that Li Tai was restless and embarrassed, so she found an excuse to come in and lead Li Tai out. Seeing him raising his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, she couldn't help but sigh and said: "It's hard to bear the kindness of others, right? Not to mention you yourself, Apan, even our family in Beijing have been harassed a lot because of you during this time!"

Li Tai felt a little flustered when he heard this. He knew that Hongluan Xingdong was at the top of the blind date market during this period, but when he heard Lu Rou confuse the prince's enthusiasm for him with this, he subconsciously Then he shook his head and said: "Cousin, you are joking, it is impossible, I dare not think..."

"Is there anything impossible? Ah Pan, you underestimate yourself too much. Even the women of the emperor's sect still need to be matched by human beings. Looking at the past events, how can you be inferior to this kind of person, Ah Pan?"

Lu Rou raised her hand and patted Li Tai on the shoulder, feeling quite proud of him.

Li Tai also looked helpless when he heard this. It's because I'm not inferior in any way, so why join them? Not to mention that he has made a lifelong agreement with Lady Miaoyin, even if he hasn't yet, the Prince Consort of the Western Wei Dynasty really lacks allure to him!

From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to continue this topic, and he didn't want to go back to the tent to bear the prince's frightening enthusiasm, so he simply pulled Lu Rou and left together.

The prince waited in the tent for a while but did not see Li Tai return. He frowned slightly. He first pushed away the nearby waiter, then called Feng Yi and Wang Yuan Jihai closer. He asked in a deep voice: "The Li family of Wang Gong is dear to you. How about that person?" How much does young Li Boshan know?"

After Yuan Jihai heard this, he shook his head and said: "We have very little communication with each other. Although Li Boshan is a junior of the Wife family, his journey to the west was short and he lived in Huazhou and Jiushitai Prefecture for a long time..."

No valuable information was found from Yuan Jihaikou. The prince frowned and said: "This Li Boshan is a good person and has made great achievements. I attended two weddings in Huazhou and saw that he is highly admired by the masses. Although he is still far away He may not be called a good minister for the benefit of the country, but he has considerable qualifications and can be said to be a well-known scholar worthy of long-term cultivation. It would be a pity if such a person only lives in the prefecture and county of Taifu. I intend to recruit him from the East Palace to encourage him. Chengcai, would you like to be a lobbyist for me?"

Yuan Jihai and Li Tai were not very familiar with each other, and he didn't really want to take on this task. However, seeing the expectant look in the prince's eyes, he couldn't refuse directly for a while, so he smiled and said: "What kind of favor does your highness have? Just a piece of imperial edict." Everyone worships..."

"It's better not to have such arrogant thoughts. In the past years, I have been kind to a few people, but they all turned out to be stupid and difficult to support. This Li Boshan is much more impressive than the previous members. If you are willing to follow me, even if you are helpless, you can bring glory to the palace. Increase your popularity!”

The prince said seriously again.
