Seeing her father getting angry, Li Xueyan didn't dare to make a fuss, and quickly shut her mouth.

"The emperor has decided to betroth Princess Changle to Wang Xiu. Wang Xiu will be very precious in the future, so we people in the palace must not offend him, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble."

Li Daozong knew in his heart that although they were clans, they were separated by a layer after all, and there was a big difference in this.

"Father, we understand."

Everyone nodded, knowing the seriousness of this matter. In the future, Wang Xiu will be a relative of the emperor, at least he will be the son-in-law of the emperor, or the eldest son-in-law.

"Wang Xiu's mansion is newly moved in and lacks popularity. Jing Heng, please choose a maid and send a gift to show our heart."

Compared with his second son, he still trusts his eldest son, Li Jingheng, because he is much more stable.

"Brother, Wang Xiu doesn't seem to like these empty-headed things, he likes more practical things." Li Daoxing reminded.

"what?"

"money!"

Li Daoxing thought for a while, nodded and said: "Then take 10 taels of silver from the warehouse and send it as a gift. Wang Xiu was probably pressed by the overseas businessman, so he likes money so much."

He has also heard about overseas profiteers, they are simply too deceitful, tens of millions at every turn, who can stand it.

Let alone Wang Xiu, even he couldn't handle it.

"Okay, I understand." Li Jingheng nodded.

……

On the other side, Chang'an Wang's family felt like dark clouds were overwhelming the city, and the whole person felt bad.

Representatives of the ten branches of the Patriarch Wang's generation all came over and questioned Wang Guangzhong's decision one after another. They all looked fierce and fierce, but they no longer had the harmony they had before.

"Wang Guangzhong, how did you become the head of the family, and actually went to the gate of the palace to intercept Wang Xiu? Do you know how many impeachments received by Yushitai today, saying that our Wang family is greedy and shameless?"

Wang Hui is also a member of the Wang family, and he is considered to be a good guy among young people.Although he is only a sixth rank, he is also a doctor of Taixue, which makes him very proud.

Originally, he was quite proud of himself, after all, he was young and promising, but he never expected that today he would be despised by a group of people, how could he bear it, and quarreled with others on the spot.

In the end, the trouble went to the emperor, and the emperor finally approved four words, which made him lose face.

"brazen!"

These four words were abruptly brought back by him, and he felt that his whole body was about to explode. This was simply a shame, this was the emperor's remark, and it would be with him for a lifetime.

Everyone looked at the four big characters in front of them, and couldn't help feeling their scalps tingle. They knew that these four characters would probably accompany the Wang family from today onwards.

Everyone looked at Wang Guangzhong and his son, and their eyes became cold.

"Guangzhong, although you are the head of the family, you must be responsible for causing such a disaster for the Wang family!"

"It's reasonable to say that our royal family's reputation has been ruined overnight. This is no small matter."

"If one is not handled well, we will be expelled from other families."

"I am afraid that the emperor will not let us go, so we must be cautious, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

They are not fools, so they naturally know the horror of this, if they are not careful, they will be doomed, and the four words of the emperor are enough to make them fall into the abyss.

If other aristocratic families know, they will definitely add insult to injury and take the opportunity to eliminate the influence of the Wang family, because the Wang family has tarnished the reputation of the aristocratic family.

Wang Guangzhong glanced at them, and said with a sneer, "Hmph, you were the ones who agreed to let Wang Xiu come back. Now that you know how to talk about the situation, why didn't you guys go and see after Wang Yuan died?"

After all, I underestimated Wang Xiu and overestimated Wang Xiu's attitude towards the family, which caused this result.

Looking at the words "brazen" on the table, he clenched his fists tightly and couldn't help trembling. I'm afraid he was completely ruined.

"So what if we agreed, who knew you were so stiff?"

"Now that Wang Xiu has let go, you are not allowed to claim to be the head of the Wang family, otherwise he will clean up the house, what shall we do?"

"That's right, there's no need for this family to be so stiff, so you have to come down too!"

The brothers sneered endlessly. It was you who messed up the matter, and you wanted everyone to accompany you to take the blame. You were thinking too beautifully.

Since you screwed up, you pay the price.

Seeing this scene, Wang Guangzhong couldn't help sighing, and said in a deep voice, "Well, from today onwards, I won't be the head of the Wang family, you all wish for luck."

He knew that with these four words, his life might be considered over, and unless he got Wang Xiu's forgiveness, he might not be able to stand up for the rest of his life.

"Father, how can this be done? You are the head of the Wang family. How can you just say you don't do it? If you don't do it, they will be even more inappropriate."

Wang Yun's face turned pale by the side. If his father came down, he would be finished too.

He was very arrogant in the past, if he was beaten down, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Hmph, it's because of you kid, otherwise would something happen to your father?"

"Here are all your elders, what are you, dare to talk to us like that!"

"In the future, you will not be a young master. If you dare to be arrogant, I don't think you have been beaten before!"

Chapter 262 Begging him to be the head of the house

Snapped!

As soon as the words fell, a slap fell on Wang Yun's face. The one who slapped him was an uncle he usually looked down upon, but now he dared to slap him, which made him feel dumbfounded.

After reacting, Wang Yun said furiously, "If you don't dare to hit me, I will kill you!"

After speaking, he was already ready to hit someone. As the son of the head of the family, he was used to being arrogant, but now there are still people bullying him, how can this be tolerated.

He picked up a stool casually, and was about to smash it at this uncle, how could he care about this under his anger.

It's a pity that it's not what it used to be now, the stool in his hand has already been snatched away by the guards.

Looking at the guard with an indifferent face, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. It seemed that something was wrong.

In the past, these guards only listened to their father, but now they actually stopped themselves.

Looking up at those uncles, all of them have indifferent eyes, looking at themselves is like looking at a stranger, a dead person, it is simply too scary.

Naturally, Wang Guangzhong also noticed this, and he couldn't help sneering: "What do you mean, is this a rebellion?"

It is self-evident that he is the eldest son of the family and the current head of the family.But these people are also naive, and really think that they are vegetarians.

As the head of the family, he has a guard team of his own to maintain the dignity of the head of the family.

"Yun'er, go and call Zhou Yu here!"

Hearing Zhou Yu's name, Wang Yun couldn't help being overjoyed. Zhou Yu was the head of his father's guards, so he could definitely help drive these people away.

Just when he was about to call for someone, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a group of people broke in from the outside, the leader of which was Wang Bao, the elder of the Wang family.

"No need, it's useless to call anyone, Guangzhong, you should retreat yourself, so as not to look bad in the future!" Wang Baobo walked in slowly, and said with a gloomy face.

He just found out about such a big scandal in the Wang family, which made him very angry, and it could even be said that he was terrified.

He was once young and frivolous, so he naturally knew the resentment in Wang Xiu's heart. If this completely angered Wang Xiu, it would definitely not be what the Wang family wanted to see.

The governor of a region is furious, that is definitely not a joke.

Even if it is for the benefit of the Wang family, Wang Guangzhong must be resigned, otherwise the Wang family will be completely ruined.

Wang Guangzhong looked at the old man, his expression suddenly became ugly.

This old man is not simple. When he was young, he followed Li Yuan in the rebellion and also made meritorious service.

But later, he was punished by Li Yuan because he robbed someone else's new wife. Otherwise, he might have his seat in the court now.

It can be said that the Wang family can gain a foothold in Chang'an, perhaps without his reasons.

This is a powerful old guy, even he has to be cautious, the old guy's influence is still there.

But he knew, his son didn't know.

Wang Yun on the side looked at the second grandpa who was limping, and said with a sneer, "Second grandpa, it's not your time anymore, you can't control the Wang family, I advise you not to go through this muddy water."

"Hmph, I don't know the so-called yellow-haired boy, the Wang family is corrupted in your hands! Just because you dare to threaten Wang Xiu, I really don't know how to write the word dead."

Wang Bao directly slapped him away, then stared at Wang Guangzhong, and said in a deep voice: "Guangzhong, you also know what the best choice is now, you choose yourself!"

No one knows the horror of power better than him. He was punished by Li Yuan for robbing the wife of a local governor. In the end, if Li Yuan hadn't protected him, he probably would have escaped death.

Now they dare to provoke the governor, this is simply courting death.

Wang Guangzhong had nothing to say, but giving up like this was really unacceptable to him.

It's a pity that Wang Bao ignored him at all, and with the help of other people in the room, he had no power to resist, and he had to succumb.

"I, Wang Bao, can't talk about it for a few years anyway. The future of the Wang family belongs to you, so you can decide what to do, and I won't worry about it!"

"Second uncle, we listen to you."

"Well, Wang Guangzhong's Patriarch will be deposed from today, and the new Patriarch will be Wang Xiu, do you understand?" Wang Bao said solemnly.

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard the words. If they could establish a relationship with Wang Xiu, that would definitely be the best choice. The Wang family might even soar into the sky, and maybe even enter a second-rate or even a first-rate family.

"Hahaha, I understand!"

"In this way, don't we also have the opportunity to be contaminated by Wan Huhou, and become a top family by then?"

"This is really great. Even if it has nothing to do with the title, we should have a share of Jiaozhou's great interests."

"This is much better than before. It is said that Jiaozhou is all about picking up money now."

Hearing everyone's words, Wang Bao couldn't help twitching the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help sneering: "It's one thing to understand, but whether Wang Xiu agrees to it is another matter. That kid is a stubborn one, and he claims that one person is a family guy."

"Then what should we do, dad?" Wang Bao's eldest son, Wang Qiang, couldn't help frowning. How come there are people who don't even want to be the head of the family, and it's not their turn to be the head of the family.

Wang Bao took a look at his son, as if seeing a pile of shit, with disgust on his face, he said angrily: "What to do, of course we have to find a way, and now the Wang family has this way out, otherwise the Wang family will die. It's all over."

The reason why he didn't want to take care of his family before was because his son was too mediocre. Rather than die in a fight, it would be better to live a rich life.

But now he can't, he has to fight for this one, otherwise the Wang family will be ruined.

Everyone couldn't help but sighed, it's really irritating to compare people to others, and this patriarch still asks others to take over the property, which is simply too miserable.

……

Compared with the misery of the Wang family, the Champion Hou's mansion is full of guests at this moment, and many people come here to give gifts.

After Duan Xuan came over with gifts at the beginning, more and more people came later, especially the few state capitals that are closer to Jiaozhou, and they couldn't help but send gifts.

Later, Li Daozong, the king of Rencheng, and Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian County, all sent gifts, and even Prince Li Chengqian went to Wang Xiu's mansion in person to express his condolences.

All of a sudden, the whole of Chang'an was alarmed. Anyone who is not stupid will know the political trend, so hurry up and give gifts at home.

For a while, Wang Xiu's house was full of guests, which made Wang Xiu sigh.

"I never imagined that there would be such a day, and the gifts were so soft!"

Xiaojiu on the side nodded fiercely, looking at the mountain of gifts, he felt that the excitement before was gone, it was too much.

Chapter 263

"Lang Jun, you are too powerful, even those princes and princes want to give you gifts."

Xiaojiu couldn't help admiring his lord, even those princes would give gifts to him, and even the crown prince gave him some treasures, which was really very honorable.

If the master can see this scene, he will be very happy and very happy.

Wang Xiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and explained: "The Tang Dynasty is a society of human feelings, and giving gifts is even more reciprocal. This is a very normal thing. Your husband is now a second-rank official at any rate, so he will naturally save face."

To put it bluntly, this is also a person who came to give gifts, and the people behind were all blocked. If they didn't come, they would offend Wang Xiu, so they came too.

In this way, the number of people will increase later.

"Hee hee, Mr. Lang is so amazing!" Xiaojiu played with a jade ruyi in his hand, it was priceless when taken out, it was sent by the crown prince, it is said that it was a treasure bestowed by the emperor himself.

Wang Xiu shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "Record all the gifts from these guests, and then give them gifts in return. Courtesy is reciprocal. It's not enough to just give it to someone else, that's narrowing the road!"

No one is a fool, and there is no free lunch, so it is better to reciprocate.

Anyway, he has a system and can get a lot of rare gadgets, which are invaluable things to them.

"Enen!" Xiaojiu nodded, and began to organize the gift list seriously.

After telling everything, Wang Xiu went outside, and now his uncle Tang Jian is making arrangements outside.

There were too many guests tonight, Tang Jian almost vomited blood just talking about the scene, when he saw Wang Xiu coming, he quickly stopped him.

"You boy, you put so many guests here and let me entertain them. I almost died of exhaustion. You boy should compensate me with some good things." Tang Jian said with a shy face.
