Chapter 145 A Hundred Years of Liaodong

Changan
Royal Mansion
"Father!"

"Grandpa!"

Hearing that her father, Wang Changjiong, passed away last night, Wang Ling asked the Empress Dowager for leave for mourning.

When he returned to the mansion, he saw that his father, Wang Changjiong, had died on the bed at the age of 85.

"Young Master, the master asked me to give you this kit before he died, and said that no one can open it except you." A servant of the Wang family said respectfully.

"The kit?" Wang Ling was puzzled, and immediately opened the kit, but found a piece of cotton paper inside, on which was written: Huo Guang died, Huo family died!

Wang Ling was shocked. He had listened to his father's analysis a long time ago. The Huo family was supported by Huo Guang alone. Once Huo Guang died, the entire Huo family would collapse instantly.

But it's not dead, is it?

Wang Ling remembered the death of Queen Xu Pingjun. Although there were many doubts, many people speculated that the Huo family might have done it.

"Father left this last word before he died, is it to warn our Wang family not to stand in the wrong position in the next lineup?" Wang Ling thought to herself.

Huojia
"The prime minister has passed away?"

Huo Guang was not surprised when he heard the news.

Wang Changjiong was too old, and he looked like he was about to die at any time, and it was normal to die at this time.

He is considering a new prime minister candidate. This new prime minister candidate should be the same as Wang Changjiong, old and unambitious, so as not to compete with him for power.

After much deliberation, Huo Guang finally thought of Wei Xian.

This Wei Xian is an old scholar and has no ambitions. He just wants to lie down and lie down on weekdays. He belongs to the same type of person as Wang Changjiong, so he is very suitable to be the prime minister.

Weiyang Palace

"Prime Minister Wang has passed away."

Emperor Liu Bing has also received the news. After all, he is the prime minister, so he naturally pays more attention to relevant trends.

He is not familiar with Wang Changjiong, nor is he familiar with the Liaodong Wang family.

I only know that the Wang family produced a famous general Wang Changzhi, a prime minister Wang Changjiong, and a few Wang family children who are considered talented, that's all.

As for other news about the Wang family, not to mention that Liu was already ill, even Huo Guang didn't know.

The Liaodong Wang family devoted themselves to managing their power in Liaodong, and rarely participated in the power struggle in Chang'an's court, and there were not many people in Chang'an who knew the Wang family very well.

Over the past few decades, the Wang family has recommended many people from the Wang, Zhang, Li and Lu families to enter the court.

The recommended Wang family, Zhang family, Li family, and Lu family were later transferred back to Liaodong as county magistrates through the relationship of the Huo family.

Throughout Liaodong, the county magistrates of all counties are the children of the four big families. The officials of the county are also monopolized by the four big families, and they are served by the private soldiers of the four big families. The officials of the county government are also the servants of the four big families. concurrently.

Up to the prefect, down to a county government official, and even the guard dog at the gate of the county government, all belong to the four major families.

Wang Changzhi managed Liaodong for nearly 50 years, and finally turned Liaodong into the private property of the four major families.

another year later
Liaodong
Xiangping County

The entire county was hung with white cloth, and the people in the city were required to wear mourning clothes.

Because Wang Changzhi, the prefect of Liaodong County, died not long ago at the age of 88.

Due to the previous agreement between the Wang family and the Huo family, Wang Hongyin, the son of Wang Changzhi, was appointed as the prefect of Liaodong by the court, and Wang Hongzheng, the son of Wang Xiaoqian, was appointed the magistrate of Liaonan County.

All the county magistrates in the entire Liaodong came to the funeral, as did the governor and captain of Liaodong County.

They were all recommended by Wang Changzhi before, so they were all former students of Wang Changzhi. Wang Changzhi was like their teacher and had a teacher-student friendship with them.

The situation of the seventeen counties in Liaodong, the prefects, the prefects, the captains and the seventeen county magistrates is as follows:
[Liaodong prefect: Wang Hongyin (married Li Teng's younger sister as his wife, and married two concubines from the Lu family and the Zhang family as concubines)

Governor of Liaodong County: Zhang Mu (married Wang Hongyin's sister as his wife, and his concubine married Wang Hongyin as his concubine, and married two concubines from the Li family and the Lu family)

Lieutenant Lieutenant of Liaodong: Li Teng (sister married Wang Hongyin as his wife, Zhang Mu's aunt as his concubine, and Lu Shuo's concubine as his concubine)

Wushan County Magistrate: Wang Hongli (Cousin of Wang Hongyin)

Southern Liaoning County Magistrate: Wang Hongzheng (Cousin of Wang Hongyin)

Xianping County Magistrate: Wang Hongke (cousin of Wang Hongyin)
County magistrate of Fanhan: Wang Hongteng (cousin of Wang Hongyin)

Juju County Magistrate: Wang Hongming (Cousin of Wang Hongyin)

Xiangping County Magistrate: Lu Shuo (daughter married Wang Hongli)

Gaoxian County Magistrate: Lu Jia (married a woman from the Wang family)

County magistrate of Anshi: Zhang Quan (married a woman from the Wang family)

County magistrate of Wen County: Zhang Zuo (married a woman from the Wang family)]

The county magistrates of the Wang family are all distributed in the southeastern part of Liaodong County, the county magistrates of the Zhang family are all distributed in the center of Liaodong County, the county magistrates of the Li family are all distributed in the west of Liaodong County, and the county magistrates of the Lu family are all located in the middle of Liaodong County. north.

Wang Hongyin is only 27 years old this year. Among the many prefects in the Han court, he is considered very young.

There is a concubine, a concubine, and a concubine.

The concubine is called Wang Yujun, who is nine years old; the concubine is Wang Fengbang, who is five years old; the concubine is Wang Zhengjun, who has just turned one year old.

This time, there is no dispute about the succession of the Patriarch.

11 years ago, just after the Salt and Iron Conference, Wang Changzhi appointed Wang Hongyin as the successor of the patriarch.

"Father, Hongyin will remember your teachings and grow the family!"

Wearing plain onyx, Wang Hongyin looked at the countless white clothes in the city, feeling infinitely moved in his heart.

The Wang family has been based in Liaodong for 150 years. From the beginning of obscurity, today's seventeen counties in one county all wear plain onyx to attend the funeral for the family head.

"Fu Jun, how can you leave me, woo woo woo—"

"I would like to keep my filial piety for my teacher for three years, woo woo woo—"

The county magistrates were crying, and the scholars who had been recommended by Wang Changzhi were also crying.

"Everyone, death cannot be revived. My father has passed away and will be buried in the ancestral mausoleum. Please go back," Wang Hongyin persuaded the mourners.

"Fu Jun, please let me go with you, I want to guard the tomb for the teacher."

"Your Majesty, the students are willing to go to observe their filial piety."

"All the people in the city miss the first prefect, please allow the whole city to wear mourning for the first prefect for three days."

Wiping away tears, Wang Hongyin wept slightly and tremblingly said to everyone: "Everyone's heart, my father knows, and he must rest in peace, but everyone has their own things to be busy, Hongyin dare not delay everyone."

Afterwards, Wang Hongyin and the members of the Wang family headed towards the ancestral mausoleum of the Wang family.

There was an endless line of mourners, and after leaving the city, more than a hundred officials, big and small, mourned and sent coffins.

The servants of the royal family loaded the coffin on the carriage, and many maidservants wore white clothes, holding flower baskets filled with white flowers, and scattered these white flowers into the sky and dropped on the side of the road.

On the way, Wang Hongnian also checked the relevant information of the family.

[Patriarch: Wang Kang (first generation)
Posthumous Title: Holy King

Evaluation: The ancestor of the Wang family, the ultimate origin of everything, created the foundation of a thousand-year-old family in Liaodong as Bai Ding
Last wish: I really want to live another 500 years

……

Second-generation Patriarch (see details)

……

Three generations of patriarchs (see details)

……

Patriarch: Wang Changzhi (fourth generation)
Posthumous title: Huan Jun

Evaluation: Relying on the exploits against the Huns, led the family to rise rapidly, and expanded Penglai Island overseas
Last wish: Under the Nine Springs, go drink with brother Wei Qing]

Then he continued to check the progress of [Horror Gate] and [Jiangmen].

[Unpopular: Level 75 (500/[-])

Current effect: learning cultural knowledge efficiency +20%]

[Jiangmen: Level 460 (500/[-])

Current effect: leadership +5, bravery +2]

"This leveling up is really difficult. I didn't expect Uncle Changyu to destroy the poisonous Sunga Dynasty before his death."

Through the 200 experience gained by Jiangmen, Wang Hongyin knew that his clan uncle Wang Changyu had destroyed the poisoned Xunjia Dynasty. At the same time, since his brother Wang Hongnian became the rear general, he also gained 5 points of experience.

But none of that really surprised him.

What really surprised him was the attributes of his own queen and ruler.

Over the past few decades, because of marriages with other families in Liaodong, they did not care about each other's beauty and temperament for the purpose of marriage, and the charm attributes of the descendants of the Wang family have also declined a lot.

Except for the Dynasty Song under special circumstances, the Wang family has not produced a national beauty or a beautiful tree in the wind for decades.

But his first-in-law Queen Zhengjun possessed such inheritance.

[Member: Wang Zhengjun

Inheritance: national beauty

Talent: Quiet]

Because he is a minor, there are no properties to display yet.
