Records of the King of Xin'an County

After the Yan family's birthday banquet was over, because he lived in Yankang Fang together, Wang Zixian took his younger sisters to drive with the carriage of Prince Pu's mansion.Yan specially called the sisters of the Wang family to accompany her in the carriage. Li Hui and the prince rode their horses and followed beside the carriage. Hearing the faint laughter coming from inside, they couldn't help but look at each other and smiled: The harvest of today's birthday banquet was better than the two of them expected. more abundant.It seems that there is indeed a turning point in the dark, and it depends on whether they can grasp it.

Talking and laughing all the way to Deyankangfang, the two parties bid farewell to each other and went back home.

Li Hui followed Yan to the inner hall of the main courtyard, and mentioned to her that Yan Lide had promised to teach him to paint: "Grandfather is not in a hurry, but someone else is in a hurry. Balang has already decided to become an official, and Shiwulang's apprenticeship must be done. It’s better to make it happen as soon as possible.” As for the accident that happened at the end, there is no need to mention it.

Yan felt a little relieved: "My grandfather is the head of the family after all, so he should have the strength to restrain one or two. Speaking of which, the sisters of the Wang family are all good children, and it would be great if I could give one to Hachiro. Even Yue Niang She said a lot of good things for them, and she should have a good relationship with them." Because of Prince Xian, she was a little cold towards the sisters of the Wang family.Now that it is tacitly accepted that Wang Zixian is from his own family, he can't help feeling a sense of care for these two sisters with excellent temperaments.

Li Hui was stunned, and said in a low voice: "Luo Niang has already betrothed to Zixian's younger brother He Cheng, but Xiang Niang is still young, so she didn't make a marriage promise." No matter whether Wang Luoniang fell in love with him or not, in the eyes of the world, this marriage was regarded as her low marriage.As for Yan Balang, even though he has never been an official, he can be regarded as a high-ranking married sister of the Wang family just because of his family background.Not to mention whether the two sisters who have become close will feel grievances because of this, the Yan family of the Gongqing family must also look down on the concubine Wang Xiangniang.

It is indeed Wang Luoniang that Yan's eyes are on, after all, his age is similar to Yan Balang's.Wang Xiangniang is a little younger, and she has to wait a few more years to get married, and she is a concubine, and her status does not match Yan Balang's.However, since Wang Luoniang already has a marriage contract, she can't force it, she just sighed: "It's really a pity."

"Aniang can't trust the eyes of my grandmother and aunts, so I can just find a suitable wife for Balang." Li Hui said, "Only if you have a congenial temperament and a similar heart, you can have a harmonious family and everything will be prosperous in the future." When he mentioned this, he couldn't help it The corners of his lips curled up eagerly: "Not to mention, if Hachiro likes it, then it will be the most suitable marriage."

How could Yan Shi not know that he must have thought of Wang Zixian?For a moment, I don't know whether to lament that the husband is always towards his wife, or that the "female" is extroverted.The youngest son is stubborn by nature, if he identifies with one person, it will probably not change in this life.Should she plan ahead and start thinking about where to adopt a child for him?It's a pity that Li Xin and his wife only have one son and one daughter, and Prince Pu's lineage has really few heirs...

After the Wang brothers and sisters in the other room returned home, Wang Luoniang and Wang Xiangniang followed the prince's devotion and followed him back to the courtyard.Wang Zixian brought them to the study room, and waved away the servants: "What? What happened during the banquet?" Logically speaking, with Princess Pu and Princess Changning taking care of them, with their intelligence, they should be like ducks in water during the banquet. yes.

"Brother, we accidentally heard a maid talking, her accent is very similar to the bandits who appeared in Yinchan Temple." Wang Luoniang looked solemn, "After questioning for some reason, the maid said that she came from Xiazhou, the accent of the northern Xinjiang states They are very similar. Those bandits back then, aren’t they…” Sometimes, many people don’t notice whether they have an accent in their Mandarin.But inadvertently, the local accent will be brought out, leaving a very deep impression on the keen people.

"Actually, it's not very similar." Wang Xiangniang continued, "It still sounds different to me. When I went to Xishi a few days ago, the Han merchants and Hu merchants who came from Lingzhou and Liangzhou did not attract me. Attention. I guess, it should be the dialect of those state capitals east of Xiazhou. If you hear a more similar accent next time, you will be able to identify the identities of those bandits back then."

Wang Zixian stared at the two girls in front of him, and suddenly felt that he still underestimated them: "In the future, I will have a group of northern Xinjiang people from various states, and you can quietly identify them. If you can identify them accent, and then send people to the local area to investigate carefully, and the matter will be easily resolved." Taking advantage of the caravan, it was not difficult for Sun Rong to bring some people back from northern Xinjiang.Although this method may take a lot of time, but in order not to startle the snake, it is the only way.

"I heard that Princess Changning recommended many people to you?"

"They are all young ladies with congenial temperaments. They promised to send us posts and invite us to go out to play-brother, can we also hold a banquet and send them posts?"

"Of course." Wang Zixian thought for a moment, "The home is a bit cramped, so it's inconvenient to receive guests. I bought a small village at the foot of Nanshan a few days ago, and you can invite them to relax." Princess Changning is limited to unmarried ladies It is inconvenient to make friends with men because of his identity, so he has to temporarily start with close friends.If the young ladies can form an alliance, they may not be able to win over their husbands and sons-in-law in the future, and even hold their husband's family and their mother's family tightly in their hands.This is also a last resort, but it is already a bit higher than the ordinary princess who only knows about marriage, extravagance and pleasure.

"Zhuangzi from Nanshan?" Sister Wang Luoniang couldn't hide her admiration and admiration for her brother.They all know that there is not much money left in the family, and a village in Nanshan is worth four or five manors in the suburbs of Shangzhou.Their eldest brother is really omniscient and omnipotent, enough to make them feel at ease.But they can't just rely on their elder brother for everything, there must be something they can do for him!

In the next few days, Li Hui and Wang Zixian were a bit busy, even if they often met in front of the imperial court, they did not have the opportunity to have a deep talk with Yang Qian, who was always watching.Moreover, Wang Zixian accidentally discovered that the Yang family had sent a group of people to watch him closely, completely restricting his movements, and it was inconvenient for him to quietly go to Prince Pu's Mansion or Tengyuan to meet Li Hui at night.

A few days passed, and Wang Zixian, whose lovesickness was hard to understand, looked at Yang Qian every day with a cold look in his eyes.But Yang Qian didn't realize it, he just seized the opportunity to show his talent in front of the saint.It's a pity that Wang Zixian, who was burning with a dark fire in his heart, no longer intends to save him any face, and tightly suppresses him every time.Being so tolerable for a while, but always being at a disadvantage in such a contrast between the two sides, naturally made him increasingly irritable.

The day before he was about to take a rest, Li Hui came to the Temple of Ci'en to offer sacrifices to Emperor Taizong and Empress Wende, and stayed in the dormitory in the temple.And Wang Zixian also came to play chess with Master Xuanhui in honor of Mr. Song.When Li Hui returned to the hut late at night, Wang Zixian was already sitting in front of the pine tree table, drawing a map by hand.

Seeing him coming, Wang Zixian stared at his every move almost without blinking, his fiery eyes almost set his whole body on fire.Li Hui still paced forward unhurriedly, changed his gown under his service, and sat down in his ordinary clothes.Prince Xian embraced his waist from behind, and left a series of light kisses on his ears, but he didn't go any further—after all, in the pure land of Buddhism, no matter how hard lovesickness is, he can only force himself to continue to bear it. .

"Why did the Yang family suddenly stare at you? Could it be that they became suspicious and caught the person you placed? If not, they acted rashly and left an excuse, and almost sent you an excuse to break up. It's not like Yang Qian Do what you want." In those days, how many people admired Yang Zhuangtou, a handsome gentleman.At that time, Yang Qian hid it very deeply, few people could see his hypocritical nature, let alone act impulsively.

"Jealousy can change many people, and he is just one of them. After he found out that I have the same position as him, he couldn't control it anymore." Wang Zixian whispered in his ear, "Jiu Si also He once mentioned to me that he was so enraged that he almost lost his mind and wanted Jiusi to impeach me."

"However, if you are in the early stage, you want to find the sage's confidant, is he crazy?" Li Hui frowned, "It's just jealousy, it will never make him lose control so easily. Maybe there are people around him , Trying to make a profit?" He has never been good at insidiousness, so he naturally doesn't think too much about it, and he instinctively feels that Yang Qian may have offended someone without knowing it.

However, Wang Zixian thought of many insider tricks and couldn't help being startled.Yang Qian is not an idiot, if the scribes around him intend to sow discord, he will naturally not believe it.But what about a woman's scheme?The wind beside the pillow is the most silent, enough to shake those who are not determined enough.It seems that the undercurrent of the Hongnong County Government Mansion is deeper than they thought.He needs to find out more information before he can make a judgment.

"Have you ever met Yang Dalang again?"

"There is no chance to enter the Yang family, so I can only ask someone to bring him news. However, a person like him will not turn against each other until he is desperate. Perhaps, he still hopes that the Yang family can return to the right path Forget it. It's just that every time he sees Mrs. Wei, there will be more guards outside the yard, and their life will be more difficult."

Li Hui shook his head involuntarily: "Yang Shijing prides himself on admiring young talents, but he has misjudged his two sons. Even if Yang Dalang suffers from a strange disease, in terms of knowledge and mind, he is far superior to Yang Qian and even Yang Shijing himself. The success or failure of the Yang family may have been doomed back then."

"As a father, what Yang Shijing needs is a son like Yang Qian who listens to his teachings, not a son like Yang Dalang who persuades him all the time. Different ways do not conspire with each other. This is the case between friends, between husband and wife, and even more between father and son. That's right." Wang Zixian said flatly.Parental preference is not without reason, but these reasons may not all be reasonable.

Then, Li Hui lowered his eyes and carefully looked at the map he had drawn just now, seeing that he had circled all the states east of Xiazhou, thought for a moment and said: "Yong'an County King manages Shazhou and Lingzhou, which can be excluded for the time being." The former Jiangxia County King transferred from Lingzhou to Shuozhou, so he may not be completely innocent, so you can pay attention to it. However, the Hejian County King managed Shengzhou like a feudal state, and he is most likely to have a different heart."

"I have already asked Sun Rong to take the caravan for a while, and it will take at least a few months before I return to Chang'an." The prince offered, "It is extremely difficult to change the accent, and it may be worth a try. However, it is also It's not really evidence, we can only be vigilant in private. If we want to report to the sage, we need stronger evidence. Jiusi was ordered to inspect the state capitals, so he just had to go to northern Xinjiang, maybe he would get something. "

"Our strength is still too weak." Li Hui sighed.Even though it has been in business for several years, it still cannot compare with those behemoths in the dark.Self-protection may be okay, but attacking can only cause damage to the opponent if you find a weak point, otherwise it is nothing more than hitting a stone with a pebble.

"Didn't someone come to the door now?" Wang Zixian raised the corners of his lips and let him go slowly.With his ears, he could already hear the very light footsteps outside.

Hearing this, Li Hui raised his head, and saw a person pushing the door open, laughing hoarsely, "Even if you bring me to the door, it depends on whether you can keep me."

The door creaked shut, and the person standing quietly in front of the door was wearing a black cloak and a hood, which almost completely covered his figure and appearance, with only a short mustache on his jaw exposed.Even though they were so tightly wrapped, Li Hui and Wang Zixian still felt a little familiar.Of course, they had already guessed the identity of the other party, but felt that this person was quite different from the previous impressions, so they couldn't help but look at him.

The two sides looked at each other silently for a long time, as if they were evaluating each other's ability, and there seemed to be some imminent confrontation.Li Hui suddenly chuckled and poured a cup of tea himself: "Uncle, don't be nervous, please sit down. Since uncle has come, it means that a choice has been made, why should we continue to test each other?"

"Actually, I've already regretted it a bit." The visitor took off his cloak and sat across from them in a familiar manner, "If it weren't for the fact that there is no one to choose, I would not have found you."

If someone else was here, they might turn pale with shock - this person is none other than Cheng Qing, the son-in-law who should be "confined" in Princess Anxing's mansion.
