Chapter 392 Wu Yuanqing's Worries

The second daughter of the martial arts family, Mei Niang, will get married next month, to Li Ke, the king of Chu with a high position and great prestige both inside and outside the court.

The Wenshui Wu family was originally from a merchant in Bingzhou. Because the samurai Xun was granted the title of Duke by virtue of the dragon, he was promoted to a noble in the court. The power was not weak for a while, but when it came to the background, it was far behind those dignitaries in Beijing. , not included in the ranks of famous families, let alone compared with the famous giants like the Changsun family and the Du family, even ordinary families can't compare.

But as Wu Meiniang and Li Ke are about to get married, the current situation of the Wu family is different. Li Ke's father's family is the royal family, and he is also a clan of the Longyou family, and his mother's family is the famous Hongnong Yang family in Guanzhong. In one body, the nobleness is unparalleled, and in addition to the marriage of Wu Shun, the daughter of the Wu family, and the Wuchuan Helan family, the icing on the cake, unknowingly, the Wenshui Wu family has already stepped into the ranks of aristocratic families.

Wu Meiniang is under the command of the imperial decree, and Li Ke's official wife is being married. When Wu Meiniang and Li Ke get married, if Wu Meiniang gives birth to a son for Li Ke in the future and wins the prince of Chu, then the Wu family, as the Queen Mother of Chu, will rely on the merits of the founding of the country and the royal family. Relatives, it's only a matter of time before they leap to the top of the family.

This matter is naturally an opportunity and joy for the warrior Xun and the Wu family, but this kind of opportunity and joy is not for the entire Wu family. There are at least two exceptions in the Wu family, that is Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang brothers.

Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang are not the sons and daughters of Mrs. Ying's Yang family, but were born by Li Shi, the former spouse of the warrior Xun.In the past, brothers Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang took advantage of Yang's childlessness, and sooner or later the Wu family would be handed over to them, so their brothers were contemptuous of Yang's mother and mother, and they were quite rude.

But now as Wu Meiniang and Li Ke are about to get married, and Wu Meiniang is about to become the Princess of Chu, Wu Meiniang and the Yang family are no longer the fault of the Wu family brothers. What's more terrible is that when Li Ke fell into Jiangling, the Wu family brothers were sad Li Ke was disrespectful to Li Ke. Right now, because of the big marriage of the two families, Li Ke did not pursue it, but if Li Ke really cares about it in the future, how will they end up well.

But right now the entire Wu family is preparing for Wu Meiniang's wedding, so are the warriors Xun and Yang. Because of this reason, the brothers of the Wu family are free, and no one controls them, so they are much more at ease.

In the past few days, the brothers of the Wu family have invited friends from Beijing and China to hang out every day, and hang out in brothels and brothels, which is not very pleasant.

Chang'an City, Pingkangfang, Lanhonglou.

Lanhonglou is located in the east of Pingkangfang, and it is also one of the best brothels in Pingkangfang. Although it is slightly inferior to the Xieyulou, which spends a lot of money, it is elegantly furnished, and there are flocks of eagles and swallows. It is not far from Xieyulou. These rich and powerful children who don't have a lot of money, but have a lot of face.

"Xian Zhongkun went out to Jingzhou with his father Ying Guogong. He has been in Jiangling for a long time. Although you and I are old friends, it is rare to see each other. Today is a good opportunity. Come, let me respect Xian Zhongkun." In the meantime, Duke Liu Shuyi of the State of Lu held a wine bottle and smiled at Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang brothers.

Seeing this, Wu Yuanqing also raised his glass and said, "What Erlang said is very true. Since the end of Wude's year, my father has forbidden the town outside the army. Except for the day when my brother returns to Beijing with his father every year, you and I seldom get together. Today This is a rare opportunity, come, let's drink together."

Liu Shuyi is the son of Liu Wenjing, the former Yuanmou hero and Lu Guogong. When Li Yuan raised his troops in Taiyuan in the early years, the warrior Xun and Liu Wenjing served in Li Yuan's general's mansion together. Liu Wenjing was Sima, and the warrior Xun joined the army as Si Kai. If you are a minister, you will be acquainted with each other, which can be called an old friend.

Because of their father's generation, the Wu family brothers and Liu Shuyi have known each other since they were teenagers, and after careful calculation, they have known each other for more than ten years.

During the reign of Wude, Liu Wenjing was rebelled against by wrongdoers, and the samurai Xun even wrote a letter to intercede for Liu Wenjing. Although Liu Wenjing's life could not be saved, the deep friendship between the two families can be seen.

After drinking a cup, the three put down the wine bottles in their hands, and Liu Shuyi asked Wu Yuanqing again: "Xian Zhongkun followed his father to the north this time, how long can he stay in Chang'an? If it can be longer, you and I can get together often .”

Wu Yuanqing replied: "My younger brother returned to Beijing this time because of my younger sister's big wedding. After my younger sister's wedding in June, my younger brother must go south and return to Jiangling."

Liu Shuyi sighed and said: "I think the last time I saw my other sister was on the first day of this year, when I visited your father at the mansion. I don't want to think that it is only half a year later, and my other sister is about to marry into the Chu Palace. It is really a good fortune .”

Li Ke was originally the prince, and the people of Chang'an valued his contribution to protecting the country and the people in the past. Although the Chu Palace did not deliberately publicize it, the news of Wu Meiniang and Li Ke's wedding has already been spread in Chang'an Fang inadvertently, and everyone knows it. Liu Shuyi is naturally very clear.And Wu Meiniang married the daughter of the Duke of the State to Li Ke as the main concubine, which was a good match for the Wu family, so Liu Shuyi said this.

Marrying Wu Meiniang to Li Ke is a great benefit to the Duke's Mansion, but not to the brothers of the Wu family.Wu Meiniang is not a sibling of the Wu family brothers, and the relationship between the two parties was quite discordant in the past. If Wu Meiniang gains power, the situation of the Wu family brothers in the Wu family will become even more difficult. pit of the heart, and make their heart ache.

Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang looked at each other, Wu Yuanqing gave a wry smile, and said to Liu Shuyi: "Erlang doesn't know, it's a good thing for others to marry my sister into the palace, but it's probably not the case for my brother?"

Hearing this, Liu Shuyi asked inexplicably: "Where did you come from? His Highness the King of Chu has a high position and authority, and he is favored by His Majesty. The other sister married the King of Chu as his concubine. You and the King of Chu will be uncles. With the merits of Ying Guogong and the support of the King of Chu, it will only be a matter of time before the two of you become among the nine ministers and the sixteen guards."

Official Li Ke worshiped the governor of Yangzhou and was also the great general of You Xiaowei. In the court, he ranked first among the kings in terms of power and prestige. When Li Ke married Wu Meiniang, the Wu family brothers would be Li Ke's inner brothers and the emperor's relatives. Same day.

But after listening to Liu Shuyi's words, the bitterness on the Wu family brothers' faces became even heavier.The Wu family brothers were not afraid that Wu Meiniang would marry an ordinary person, their situation would be better, but Wu Meiniang married Li Ke whom they could never offend.

Wu Yuanqing said: "Erlang doesn't know that our brother offended the king of Chu in Jiangling, I'm afraid the king of Chu still remembers it in his heart, and because the Yang family is not our biological mother, he has long been dissatisfied with us and often picks on us. It is our brother's fault that we beat and scold at every turn, and when Chu Wangfu and Yingguo's mansion get married, the Yang family's prestige will be even greater, and our brother's life may be difficult."

When Liu Shuyi heard this, a trace of surprise appeared on his face, and he asked, "Is there such a thing?"

Wu Yuanqing nodded and said: "That's right, our brothers only talked about this matter with Erlang as their best friend, and I hope Erlang will not tell others."

Liu Shuyi replied, "It's a matter of course, but as far as I know, the King of Chu has always had a gloomy temperament, and he always takes revenge. Your brother has offended the King of Chu, and I'm afraid there will be no place for him in Duke Ying's mansion in the future."
