Northern Dynasties

Chapter 251
Knowing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will come to express condolences in person, the Wang family's house was suddenly busy like chickens flying like dogs.

First of all, dozens of house slaves walked out with sticks, trying to clear the hall of the mansion. His Royal Highness, the prince of the country, came to express condolences in person, and it was always difficult to lead into the mansion through the side door.

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

In such a chaotic and noisy environment, the guests and servants who were already full of irritability were pushed and pushed away by the powerful slaves who rushed out of the house, so they inevitably scuffled and argued, making the front of the door even more chaotic.

The sound of fighting and noise came into the house, which immediately made the Wang family even more sad, angry and annoyed. Without any explanation, they mobilized more servants to rush out to suppress the riot and expel the idlers.

Fortunately, those guests were not completely blind. It was a courtesy to come to express their condolences, but if there was a riot at someone's funeral, why bother.So under their own constraints, the situation gradually came under control, and a passage for carriages and horses was cleared.

"How did Mr. Anping go? You don't need to go out to pay homage to the nobleman, so quickly return it to the account..."

There was a little silence in front of the door, but the inner courtyard became noisy again. Wang Mao, the son of Wang Meng, came out in mourning, ready to welcome the prince, but was quickly pushed back by some respectful guests.

At this time, the guests who have already entered the house to express their condolences also need to make a train to welcome the prince, but the official rank of each guest is involved, and there is a long-lasting discussion and dispute, and it has been delayed for a long time.

In fact, when a minister of the level of Wang Meng died, the imperial court would send officials who were familiar with etiquette and regulations to preside over the funeral.But Wang Meng passed away yesterday. Because of his close relationship with Daxingtai, the imperial court also sent envoys to Huazhou to inquire about the specifications of Ai Rong, so no ceremonial officer was appointed to preside over it.

Even if there is no ceremony officer sent by the imperial court, there is no lack of clansmen who are familiar with human relations and allusions to greet and maintain first, but the Wangmeng family is suddenly more expensive than the Western Dynasty, and the quality of the clansmen is still difficult to match such a human situation, and it will be inevitable for a while. All kinds of confusion.

With the help of Lu Rou and others who came to express their condolences, the guests in the house finally lined up neatly, but they had just been arranged here, but there were visitors from the Eastern Palace rushing in outside the house, and they all shouted anxiously. Zhuang Yong hurried out to meet His Royal Highness Prince Zouhu.

It turned out that the prince got out of the car and came here on foot in order to express his respect for Wang Taifu. As a result, there were too many cars and horses on the street, and the guards of the Eastern Palace could not be spread out at all. In order to ensure the safety of the prince, he had to rush into the house. Recruit people to meet them.

Hearing the shouts of the audience in the Eastern Palace, Li Tai, who was standing in the line, was immediately happy, and his heart was full of evil.This prince is really addicted to adding drama, and he is afraid that his sense of presence is not high enough. If he happens to have some drama in the white dragon fish costume today, maybe he can get things done with Wang Meng.

He was secretly slandering here, but the others still attached great importance to the safety of His Highness the Crown Prince, especially the clans of the Yuan family, regardless of their bravery and deterrence, they strode forward one by one.

Li Tai walked out of the Wang's house slowly with the others, and faintly heard a crying sound full of emotion amidst all kinds of shouts to maintain order.

Not long after, the crown prince Yuanqin in plain robes walked towards the gate of the Wang family under the arch of all the clan's personal soldiers. While walking, he was still weeping and beating his chest.Even Li Tai saw this scene, although he knew it was a deliberate gesture, he also felt that his nose was a little sore.

Everyone greeted the crown prince in front of the gate, but the crown prince just turned a blind eye and staggered into the royal residence. He lowered his eyes to see Wang Bi, the grandson of Wang Meng, who was worshiping inside the gate, and pulled him up and embraced him with a snot in his arms. Tears welled up together: "Mr. Xianyang, it's too late to be alone. Wang Taifu... Although you have no ancestors and fathers, you are not lonely. You have relatives and disciples who can rely on you for the country and your family. We all mourn!"

Li Tai stood aside, watching the prince's snot and tears with cold eyes, the face of the young Wang Bi who was held in his arms began to turn red, and he felt that the prince's play was a bit too much.

However, such an attitude cannot be said to have no effect.This young Wang Bi is the son of Wang Li, the eldest son of Wang Meng, and also the son-in-law of the current dynasty, married to the daughter of the emperor Yuan Baoju.

Yuwen Taijiu ruled Ba Mansion and arranged all relatives and children as generals of the forbidden army to control the court and royal family in Chang'an. The Wang family belongs to this list.The emperor naturally tried his best to win over the generals of the imperial army who were in charge of the safety of their property and lives.

For example, the young Wang Bi in front of him is of course a relative of the Daxingtai uncle family, but he is also the son-in-law of the Western Wei emperor. In terms of pure kinship, the latter is of course closer.Seeing the crown prince mourning and mourning so hard, he might be moved by his heart and immediately follow his father-in-law and uncle.

Even if he can't win over, the prince's behavior is full of eye medicine, and in Shi Liu's eyes, it will inevitably give rise to many different daydreams.Even if these operations are not enough to reverse the general trend of Huangwei's weakness, if it can add obstacles to Yu Wentai, the prince must be very happy.

Thinking of this, Li Tai couldn't help but feel that these two sons-in-law are not fun, one is afraid to go to help his father-in-law when he is being bullied, and the other is willing to do anything as long as it can make his father-in-law uncomfortable.

Thinking about it this way, Li Tai felt more and more that Dugu Xin had good vision in choosing him as his son-in-law, and no matter what he did, he was better than the two in front of him.

After entering the mourning hall to express condolences, the prince stopped crying, sat down in the big tent under the support of the crowd, and chatted with the guests in the tent.

Introduced by Yuan Jihai, Li Tai bit the bullet and went in to pay his respects. When the crown 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 near the table, let me take a closer look at your very famous and famous talent at this time!"

"People's words are unavoidably exaggerated, absurd and untrue, small ministers are stupid and so on, I am really ashamed to be in the ranks..."

When Li Tai heard this, he immediately felt a little dizzy, and hurriedly said in a humble voice.

"In front of me, Li Zongda doesn't have to be too modest. Although we don't get along well with each other, I know you well! A month ago, I saw with my own eyes how the people's sentiments were favorably praised at the auspicious ceremony in Huazhou City. A true young man. If Li hadn't been engaged in the affairs of another family, you would have wanted to be called into the hall to meet and praise him at that time."

However, the Prince's interest in Li Tai remained undiminished, and he pointed to the empty seat on the side. He nodded in satisfaction when he saw Li Tai settled down in the seat, and turned to talk about the enthusiastic attention Li Tai received on the day of his family wedding. Describe a situation like this.

Many of the guests in the tent had gone to Huazhou for a wedding, and they knew about the situation that day, but seeing the prince clearly expressing his appreciation and love for Li Tai, they couldn't help but echo him.

Li Tai, who was the center of the topic, couldn't be happier. He was a bit unsure what style the prince was playing and why he suddenly showed such interest in him. Could it be that he still remembered the old grievances that he made him lose face in the big review last year? Opportunity to provoke and win over himself, the loyal leader of the Taiwanese government?

Lu Rou could see the embarrassment of Li Tai's fidgeting, so she found an excuse to come forward and lure Li Tai out, seeing him wiping the sweat on his forehead, she couldn't help sighing and said: "It's hard to be kind, isn't it? Not to mention Ah Pan yourself, even our houses in Beijing have been harassed because of you during this period of time!"

Li Tai felt a little flustered when he heard this. He knew that the Red Luan was a top star in the blind date market during this time, 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 a girl from the Emperor's sect still needs to be a match in the world. Counting the previous events, how can you be inferior to this, Ah Pan?"

Lu Rou raised her hand and patted Li Tai's shoulder, she was quite proud of her.

Li Tai also looked helpless when he heard this, because Lao Tzu is not inferior to them anywhere, so why join them?Not to mention that he has made a lifetime agreement with Mrs. Miaoyin, even if he hasn't, the consort of the Western Wei Dynasty really lacks allure for 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 heart-pounding enthusiasm, so he simply pulled Lu Rou to leave together.

The crown prince in the tent waited for a while and did not see Li Tai return, so he frowned slightly, first pushed away the waiter near him, and then called Feng Yi Wang Yuan Jihai to come closer, and asked in a deep voice: "Wang Gong and the Li family are dear, how about that?" How much does the junior Li Boxan know?"

After Yuan Jihai heard the words, he shook his head and said: "We don't have much communication with each other. Although Li Boshan is a younger generation of his wife's family, he travels west for a short time and lives in Huazhou and Jiushitai Mansion for a long time..."

There was no valuable information from Yuan Jihai, so the crown prince frowned and said: "This Li Boshan is a good person, and he has made great achievements. I attended two weddings in Huazhou before, and I saw that he is quite admired by the masses. Although he is still far away I can't be called a good minister of Kuangyi Sheji, but he has considerable qualifications, and he can be said to be a famous Chuxiu worthy of cultivation. It would be a pity that such a person would only live in the prefectures and counties of Taifu. I intend to recruit Donggong Whip Chengcai, would you like to be a lobbyist for me?"

Yuan Jihai and Li Tai didn't know each other very well, and he didn't really want to take on this task in his heart, but seeing the prince's looking forward to it, it was not easy to refuse directly for a while, so he smiled and said: "What kind of favor does your Highness like, a piece of decree All worship..."

"It's better not to have such arrogant thoughts. In the past, I have favored several members, but they were all 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 in the matter, you can also bring glory to the palace. Great popularity!"

The prince said seriously again.
