A Millennium Aristocratic Family Starting from the Shang Dynasty

Chapter 598 Destiny Purple Qi

The colors of luck are different. Ordinary people's luck is mostly white or gray, those of wealthy families are mostly green, and those of high-ranking officials are yellow-red. The more yellow, the higher their official position.

As for the luck of the royal family, it cannot be seen because it is protected by the destiny of the dynasty, but Wang Xuanying knows that it is purple, which is the purple energy of destiny that the ancestor said back then.

The luck of the Wang family is fiery red, like a black bird.

Li Yuan's luck was mixed with a hint of purple, which caught Wang Xuanying's attention immediately.

According to normal circumstances, the destiny of the Sui Dynasty was prosperous and the country was prosperous. There could be no other purple energy of destiny. However, the Tang Guogong in front of him now actually has the purple energy of destiny, although there is only a trace of it.

Wang Xuanying guessed that it was very likely that there was a big problem in the Sui Dynasty, and it might collapse within twenty or thirty years. And the man in front of him, the nephew of the Sui Emperor, Li Yuan, Duke of Tang, was probably one of the gravediggers of the Sui Dynasty.

"It turns out it's Duke Tang. Your Majesty, Wang Xuanze, please be polite." Wang Xuanze saluted him. He didn't seem to have any problem. It was obvious that he had no intention of getting close to him.

Li Yuan was a little embarrassed. He was talented in literature and martial arts, and his family background was extremely high. He was also the nephew of the current emperor Yang Jian. He could be said to be a winner in life. He usually liked to make friends with the children of powerful families. Today, seeing the extraordinary appearance of the Wang family, he thought I wanted to make friends, but now I was rejected.

Just when Li Yuan was embarrassed, the beautiful woman next to him who looked like a goddess suddenly said: "There is no extra space in this inn. If Tang Guogong and his wife don't dislike it, why not wait with me!"

Wang Xuanze glanced at his sister with some surprise. He knew that her sister would not let people sit down for no reason. He must have discovered something, and then he invited him: "This wilderness shop is simple. If you don't mind, please take a seat."

"Don't dare, I'm just doing my duty." Li Yuan declined repeatedly with joy in his heart.

The two also exchanged some opinions on the state affairs of the Sui Dynasty, and Li Yuan was also very good at maneuvering. Moreover, because Li Yuan served as a local governor, he was also very aware of grassroots matters.

"May I ask Brother Li, how are the people of Qiao County doing?"

Li Yuan wanted to make friends, so he naturally would not refuse and sat down with his wife immediately.

"Brother Li, does he know how many acres the local people can be divided into according to the system, and how many acres they actually have?" Wang Xuanze asked with a smile.

"It's not bad. I serve as the governor of Qiao County. I have visited and investigated many places. There is nothing wrong with those officials." Li Yuan said with a smile.

Afterwards, everyone had a conversation here. After the conversation, Wang Xuanze discovered that the Duke of Tang in front of him was both civil and military, had a high level of talent and learning, and also had his own understanding of military strategy. There is absolutely no problem in leading an army.

"The imperial court allocated 20 acres of Yongye land to Cheng Ding and 80 acres to Kou. After a woman got married, she was allocated 40 acres of open land. After her death, it was returned to the court. Although there may be some deviations in this, I think the deviation should not be big. I estimate below. At least 80%." Li Yuan knew the virtues of the officials below him, so he didn't say enough.

"Having officials like Brother Li in Qiao County is a blessing to the people of Qiao County." Wang Xuanze said.

Wang Xuanze shook his head slightly and said: "Brother Li, the number of acres of land in the imperial court is unprecedented in history, and the population is unprecedented in history!"

He knew the sufferings of the people, and also knew a thing or two about the local government's false reporting of land acres. However, he did not know that this false reporting of land acres had become a common practice in the Sui Dynasty, and it was much more serious than he imagined.

"This is exactly the contribution of my Majesty, the Holy Emperor of the Sui Dynasty. Since the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, in just over ten years, we have achieved the victory of all barbarians, peace at home, prosperity in the territory, far ahead of the previous dynasty, and the prosperity of the founding emperor. , unprecedented!" Li Yuan said proudly.

"Brother Li, have you ever thought that the land and population of the Great Sui Dynasty are far less large?"

Li Yuan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then said: "Brother Wang, are you saying that the officials here have falsely reported their land and household registration?" "Isn't it right? Brother Li will find out if he goes to check it himself?" Wang Xuanze didn't say much, he just reminded him. One sentence.

Next, the two of them did not continue to talk about government affairs, but started chatting all over the world. Although Li Yuan had been to many places and had a wide range of knowledge, he was still far behind when facing Wang Xuanze. Just like many things overseas, Li Yuan didn't know anything about them. Even many things in the Western Regions were specious.

But Wang Xuanze's words were clear and logical, which opened his eyes and made Li Yuan admire him even more.

While everyone was talking, Xu was a little tired from the journey. Li Yuan's wife Dou suddenly felt sick and couldn't help but retched twice.

Li Yuan asked quickly and ordered the servants to prepare tea. He looked at his wife with a worried look.

"Brother Li, don't worry. Sister Dou is having a happy event." Wang Xuanying said with a smile.

"Are you happy? Madam?" Li Yuan looked at Mr. Dou and then at Wang Xuanying with surprise.

"Miss Wang, does she know medical skills?"

"Brother Li, my little sister has good medical skills. If she says she has it, then she really has it!" Wang Xuanze said with a smile.

Li Yuan and Dou were overjoyed when they heard this.

"Please ask Mrs. Wang to help you see if there is any problem." Li Yuan saluted Wang Xuanying.

"You're welcome." Wang Xuanying stretched out her hand to feel her pulse, and after a moment said to Li Yuan: "Sister Dou has been here for almost a month. She is in good health, but she is a little tired. You should pay attention when you are on your way."

"It's been more than a month!" Li Yuan was a little scared when he heard this. He was in a hurry during this period. Fortunately, his wife was fine, otherwise he would regret it for the rest of his life.

"Brother Li, there is one more thing I want to tell you. Sister Dou should have a boy in her belly this time." Wang Xuanying said with a smile.

"Boys and girls are fine, both are fine." Li Yuan was very happy.

"This son will be extremely valuable in the future!" Wang Xuanying said again.

Li Yuan was slightly startled. In this era, people believed in such things. Just like the Princess of Jin, she often did divination. Emperor Yang Jian of the Sui Dynasty once dreamed that the city of Chang'an was flooded, and then the next day He ordered the construction of Daxing City in the Sui Dynasty and abandoned the old Chang'an City expanded by the Qian Dynasty, not to mention the Wang family, which has always had magical powers.

He then asked, but Wang Xuanying didn't speak again. Li Yuan had no choice but to ask Wang Xuanze for help. Wang Xuanze laughed and said: "My sister is talented and smart, and she is more proficient in physiognomy. As an elder brother, I can't control her."

"But brother Li, don't worry, the child in Madam's belly will be extremely valuable."

After saying that, everyone in the Wang family did not stay any longer, but stood up and left.
