The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

People who come from wealthy families are proud of their status and don't want to be with merchants. Therefore, there are many tricks in the invitations to the auction, such as what kind of people to invite and how to arrange the seats.

Since it is decided to hold such a grand event, it is natural to arrange it properly, otherwise it is easy to offend people.

Therefore, this is not a simple matter.

"The shopkeeper is right. The people to be invited should also be carefully considered." Li Yuan said: "Also, how to arrange the seats for these people is also a big deal."

"You have contact with many of these people in the shop, and you should also have some understanding of the wealthy families in Chang'an who like tea. You can draft this invitation." Li Fu said: "For the invitations, leave a few for me, I also want to give them to people."

"Yes, my lord." The shopkeeper bowed and responded.

After explaining this matter to Zhang Deyuan, Li Fu invited Li Yuan to sit in the teahouse opposite.

"What's the difference between the teahouse over there and the tea shop over here?" Li Yuan asked curiously.

"The teahouse over there is a place for people to drink tea. It is a place where many literati and scholars in Chang'an like to gather. Occasionally, they will invite three or five friends to the teahouse to drink tea, recite poems, write couplets, and appreciate calligraphy and painting. It provides a gathering place for these people who love elegance." Li Fu said.

"Is that so." Li Yuan's eyes lit up. Obviously, he was more interested in the teahouse that Li Fu mentioned: "Then let's go and take a look."

"However, at this time, seeing that the New Year is coming, everyone is busy at home. I don't know if there are still so many people who have the leisure to come out and gather together." Li Fu said: "Let's go and take a look first."

Li Yuan nodded.

Anyway, we must go and see it, after all, the auction venue for the special tea will be arranged over there.

The group left the shop, crossed the street, and went directly to the teahouse.

The waiter of the teahouse had already prepared everything. After seeing his master, he hurriedly invited him upstairs.

The teahouse's business was pretty good. There were still many people sitting together in the lobby on the first floor drinking tea and chatting.

The private room prepared for Li Fu and his friends was still on the third floor. It was the widest private room with the best view facing the street.

After Li Yuan entered the teahouse, he also looked around.

"Isn't that the kid from the Wang family?" Li Yuan smiled.

He met someone Li Yuan recognized.

"Wang family? Who?" Li Fu was puzzled. He looked in the direction of Li Yuan's gaze.

"Wang Fuzhi, the son of Wang Tong, this kid is also a talented person." Li Yuan smiled and said, "Let's go upstairs. He has seen me, so don't make any noise."

Go upstairs, enter the private room, and sit down.

"Li Fu, you have lived in Chang'an for almost a year. Do you know these wealthy families in Chang'an?" Li Yuan said with a smile.

"I know a little bit." Li Fu said: "The name of a person is like the shadow of a tree. They are all there."

"The Wang Fuzhi I saw downstairs just now is from the Wang family of Taiyuan. When I was the governor of Taiyuan, I was on good terms with the Wang family." Li Yuan sighed: "In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed, and Wang Fuzhi has grown up so much."

"Wang family of Taiyuan... My nephew remembers that there is another Wang family in Langya." Li Fu said.

"Yes, among the eight great families in Guanlong, there is the Wang family of Langya." Li Yuan said, "Our Li family is also one of the eight great families in Guanlong, belonging to the Longxi Li family."

"During the heyday of the Wang family of Langya, there was a saying that Wang and Ma shared the world. Later, there was also a saying that Wang and Xie shared the world. No matter which saying it was, the Wang family was a prosperous family."

"What about the Wang family of Taiyuan?" Li Fu asked.

"The ancestor of the Wang family of Taiyuan was Prince Jin of King Ling of Zhou. The famous generals of the Qin Dynasty, Wang Jian and Wang Ben, were both from the Wang family of Taiyuan. However, compared with the Wang family of Langya who could share the world with the Sima family, the influence of the Wang family of Taiyuan was not so extensive."

"The difference between the Wang family of Taiyuan and other northern noble families with deep roots is that they can't influence many places. Their roots are mainly in the area around Taiyuan. Their clan has had a rough life. In addition to the clan identity that has not been confirmed and the reputation of the clan, the Wang family of Taiyuan has not been confirmed. Besides being obscure, the small number of people in the family is also a problem.

They have always lived in Taiyuan and Chang'an. They have no relatives in other places and cannot interfere in the affairs outside the place where the princes are born. Therefore, the court does not need to worry about the Taiyuan Wang family. "

"There are two branches of the Taiyuan Wang family. The Wang Fuzhi we just met is from the Qixian Wang family, and the other branch is the Jinyang Wang family."

Li Yuan talked about the Wang family in detail for Li Fu and his grandchildren.

"The Jinyang Wang family has many people, and the Qixian Wang family is relativelyIn comparison, it seems much thinner, mainly because during the Cao Wei period, Wang Ling's three clans were exterminated, and he never recovered from it. It was not until the Southern and Northern Dynasties that he became active again. However, among them, Wang Xuanmo claimed to be from the Wang family of Qi County, but it was also his own claim, and there is no research on this. "

The Li Tang royal family also claimed to be the descendants of Li Er, which is also not researched.

When you reach a certain point, you always have to stick to something. If you don't have a name, you always feel that it is not high-end enough. Moreover, with such a name, you can walk in the court and mix with the dignitaries, and you can also get certain benefits.

Li Fu can understand this.

For example, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Huangshu saved Dong Zhuo from the Yellow Turban Army. Before he introduced himself, Dong Zhuo was polite. Liu Huangshu said that he was a descendant of a commoner, and Dong Zhuo was not arrogant at all. He.

Later, Liu Huangshu learned how to do this, and when he greeted someone, he would just use a set of smooth little combos.

A relative of the Han Dynasty, a descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, and the great-great-grandson of Emperor Jing of Han.

Emphasize his royal bloodline.

It really worked well.

King Jing of Zhongshan had more than 120 sons... But no one pursued the matter, as long as they were a little bit, they were.

If a hairy crab got a little bit of water from Yangcheng Lake, it would still be a Yangcheng Lake hairy crab.

"Then there must be one invitation to this Wang Fuzhi for the auction." Li Fu smiled.

He didn't care if there were many Wangs in Qi County, he only cared if they had a lot of money. Since they rose again during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, they must have a certain amount of wealth after so many years of accumulation.

"This child likes elegance, and has been a little adult since he was a child. He also lost his father when he was young. This child must be involved in the auction. "Li Yuan smiled and said, "Now the head of the Wang family loves him, and his status in the family is also very important."

"You are not old, but you like tea?" Li Fu said, "I thought this thing would not be very attractive to teenagers."
