On September 9th, the Double Ninth Festival is a day to climb high and look far away, respect and love the elderly, and coincidentally it happened to be the birthday of Princess Tong'an.

As the ancestor of the Li Tang royal family and the Wang family in Taiyuan, her birthday was naturally particularly grand, especially in a special auspicious year like the age of 66.

On this day, the Wang family held a banquet at the main house in Jinyang City to celebrate their birthday for Princess Tong'an. The Wang family's relatives and friends, officials from all over Hedong, powerful families, and celebrities were invited to come. It was very lively.

What is particularly special this year is that His Highness, King Jin, came to celebrate the birthday of the eldest princess on behalf of the emperor, and undoubtedly became the most honorable guest of the Wang family.

When Li Zhi and Xie Yi were presenting the prince's tent and came to celebrate their birthday with generous gifts, the Wang family went out to greet them, respectful and polite.

Among them, Wang Renyou, the leader of Luo Shanling, is the most outstanding figure among the Wang family's nephews, and is the best choice for the next head of the family.

As for the Wang Renli whom he met at Pujin Pass, he was also welcomed, but Xie Yi noticed that his ranking was very low and he is now a person who is not highly valued and has no status in the Wang family.

"His Royal Highness of Jin has arrived, and the humble house is full of brilliance. My Wang family is full of brilliance. Please, please." Wang Renyou was very respectful and welcomed Li Zhi into the door politely.

"Well!" Although Li Zhi was only thirteen years old, he was born in the royal family and was used to big scenes since childhood. He did not feel any stage fright, and he was quite calm and had a royal style.

Wang Renyou continued to laugh and said, "Thank you, please!"

"Luo Shan is polite!" Xie Yi replied with a smile. Wang Renyou was not unfamiliar with him. He had a chance to meet at the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Conference in Luoyang.

After entering the Wang family, Xie Yicai sighed what the thousand-year-old Chinese people meant. The mansion covers a large area, the houses are carved beams and painted buildings, and the materials and decorations are exquisite. The courtyard design can also be said to be ingenious. Many things are very special, they are witnesses of history and time, and they all have great origins, which can witness the heaviness and longevity of the Wang family in Taiyuan.

I think the Xie family in Chen County might have been even more glorious back then, but unfortunately I didn’t have the chance to meet. As for the Wang family of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which was ranked alongside the Xie family, it seemed that it came from the Wang family of Langya.

The main counties of the Wang family in the world are these two places. Now the Wang family in Langya has long declined, but the Wang family in Taiyuan has taken advantage of the situation and became one of the five surnames and seven sects in the world. It is one of the most wealthy families of two aristocratic families.

The so-called times change, and the world changes, thirty years from Hedong to Hexi, probably this is how it is!

While Xie Yi was feeling emotion, he followed Wang Renyou into the Wang family and then went straight into a courtyard. Everyone he met along the way bowed and bowed, very respectful.

Finally, the group entered a courtyard. Xie Yi looked up and saw three big characters from Dangui Garden. I thought that the garden must be full of osmanthus flowers. It was not close yet, but the quiet fragrance of osmanthus flowers was already coming to my nose.

"In autumn, only osmanthus and chrysanthemums can be enjoyed, and my aunt can also be interesting to live here." Wang Renyou introduced with a smile, demonstrating the respect of the Wang family in Taiyuan to the eldest princess Tong'an.

As soon as I entered the yard, I heard a woman's voice inside chirping: "Here's here..."

This situation is quite like Lin Daiyu first entered the Jia Mansion. Are the Wang family looking forward to the arrival of His Royal Highness King Jin?

However, when Li Zhi entered the park, Xie Yi and Wang Renyou followed the side from left to right. The little girls all timidly avoided it. The families of aristocratic families must understand the minimum etiquette and rules.

Wang Renyou led the way. He saw a circle of people in front of the steps of the main hall, and a woman with half-white hair and a gorgeous dress sat in the middle.

"Aunt, Your Highness King of Jin has arrived." Wang Renyou shouted, and the group of people in front of the steps hurriedly bowed to salute His Highness King of Jin.

"No gift." Li Zhi waved his hand, no one needed to introduce him at all. He had the strength to come forward and bowed, "Grandson Li Zhi greeted his aunt, I wish you a blessing as old as the East China Sea and a long life as the South Mountain."

This is the auspicious words that Xie Yi taught him before coming. It is very appropriate to come at this time. As expected, the Wang family thought that His Highness King Jin's words were very novel, but after reading them a little, they realized that they were very appropriate and full of blessings and longevity.

"Okay, Chicun, right? Come to my grandmother quickly." Princess Tong'an was not politely restrained because of Li Zhi's identity as a prince. After all, he was not the emperor or the crown prince.

As a royal ancestor, she is not rude to dotes on her nephew and grandson like this, but is a manifestation of intimacy.

"Grandma Aunt!"

"Well, it's true that he is handsome and talented, and has the style of Emperor Gaozu and His Majesty." Princess Tong'an gently stroked Li Zhi's forehead and praised him.

However, if the prince and the King of Wei stop, it seems not good. A certain sub-class father dare not say anything casually in the royal family, but Princess Tong'an is indifferent. The words of an old lady who is not in Chang'an will not cause any misunderstandings.

"Grandma's great praise." Li Zhi showed modesty obediently.

Princess Tong'an nodded with satisfaction and smiled: "How is your father?"

Li Zhi smiled and said, "It's okay, my father ordered me to greet my aunt and grandmother on his behalf and congratulate him on his birthday."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, Chi Nu." Princess Tong'an laughed and said, "Where are your brothers and sisters?"

"It's all good, my brothers and sisters have asked my aunt and grandmother to celebrate her birthday, and I wish you a hundred years of life." Li Zhi's mouth was very sweet, which made Princess Tong'an so happy.

"Your Majesty is good at teaching his children, and Chi Nu is a good child." Princess Tong'an smiled and said, "If all the descendants of my Li family are like this, my Tang Dynasty will surely be prosperous and prosperous every year."

"That's natural!" Wang Renyou smiled and agreed.

Princess Tong'an then looked up and looked around. When she saw Xie Yi, she asked with a smile: "Who is this?"

Wang Renyou hurriedly introduced: "Go back to my aunt, this is Xie Changshi from His Highness the King of Jin's mansion. I will serve His Highness to come to Hedong this time."

"Xie Yi has met His Highness the Great Princess, I wish you good health and happiness."

"Okay, young and promising, and a talented person. If Chi Nu is so well-behaved and sensible, you will definitely have your contribution." Princess Tong'an smiled.

Wang Renyou took the opportunity to say, "Aunt, Xie Changshi is a talented man all over the world. He saved the life of His Highness King Jin back then. He made contributions to the country more and more times, and was highly valued by His Majesty."

Princess Tong'an smiled and said, "Is that so? Very excellent young people, the court needs talents like you."

"Thank you for the praise of the eldest princess." Xie Yi was not polite and accepted the praise gloriously.

"Renyou, you are a landlord. Remember to entertain the guests well. Don't neglect my distinguished guests, do you understand?"

Princess Tong'an gave an order, and Wang Renyou did not dare to neglect and quickly agreed.

...

Xie Yi saw it and found it quite interesting.

Unexpectedly, something more interesting happened again later. Princess Tong'an laughed and said, "Zhi Nu, let you meet the people from your grandmother's house."

"yes!"

When Princess Tong'an waved her hand, a group of boys and girls appeared in the yard. Xie Yi noticed that there were many boys and girls.

The men were all outstanding children of the Wang family from Taiyuan, so it was necessary to let them get in touch with the prince. Then there were girls, and they were about the same age as Li Zhi. I don’t know what they had to do with this arrangement on this day of the Grand Princess Tong'an.

Something interesting, haha!

Princess Tong'an waved, "Jie'er, come here!"

The daughter in front rushed forward quickly when she heard the sound, as if she was very cheerful, but she couldn't help but feel a little arrogant in her expression.

"Zhi Nu. This is my niece, Wang Jie, the daughter of Wang Renyou." Princess Tong'an smiled and said, "Jie'er, I have come to see His Highness King Jin."

"Minister Wang Jie has met His Highness King Jin." Wang Jie immediately stepped forward and greeted her with a smile.

"Yeah, no gift!" Li Zhi waved his hand gently and responded politely.

Xie Yi, who was standing aside, was shocked in his heart. He just introduced that the person in front of him was Wang Renyou's daughter, and she was the Queen Wang in history?

I think it would be impossible to make a mistake. The Wang family obviously intended to match this girl with Li Zhi. Princess Tong'an married into the Wang family for many years and must consider the descendants of the Wang family. There were too many women doing this in history. For example, Empress Dowager Bo of the Han Dynasty wanted to marry her niece to Emperor Jing of Han as the empress. They all wanted to use the power of the royal family to seek power and interests for her husband's family or her parents' family.

However, most of the time, the result was not very good. Empress Bo of Emperor Jing of Han was the most deposed, and later, the empress Chen Ajiao of Emperor Wu of Han was also very miserable. If nothing unexpected happened in history, the end of this Empress Wang would not be better here, and her mother's family was even demoted and given the surname Python.

However, it is hard to say what the situation will be like in front of you. Princess Tong'an obviously cannot realize what will happen in the future, so it is a good intention to deliberately match it up. It is just that whether it can be accomplished, especially if it can be done, depends on God's will.

However, judging from the current situation, the result seemed not very good. Xie Yi noticed that Li Zhi's eyes were not on this good girl named Wang Jie at all. Instead, he kept looking back, as if looking for someone. When he saw a familiar face, his eyes were suddenly surprised.

Xie Yi followed his eyes and saw that the girl who crossed the river together at Pujin Pass that day, Wang Renli's daughter Wang Yan, was standing there.

She is also the daughter of the Wang family in Taiyuan. Unfortunately, she is not very high in status and can only stand at the end. However, for her, being able to appear here and being seen by Li Zhi again is actually a blessing.

Can we meet again?

Xie Yi remembered Li Zhi's question. After only a few days, his wish came true. I believe His Highness King Jin must be very happy now.

But some people were unhappy. Although Wang Renyou's daughter Wang Jie was arrogant, she was also very enthusiastic towards Li Zhi. But at this moment, she found that her enthusiasm was not responded or valued at all, especially when she was sure that Li Zhi was staring at other girls, Wang Jie's expression suddenly changed.

Unhappy, the unwilling expression of a rich daughter who wants to get the wind and rain suddenly receives setbacks.

Wang Renyou and the eldest princess Tong'an both discovered this problem. They followed Li Zhi's gaze and saw Wang Yan. They naturally didn't know the reason. Wang Renli was a smart person and had always been low-key. After returning home, he never boasted to anyone that he had shipped with His Highness King Jin. His daughter, His Highness King Jin favored such words and would not say them even more.

So Princess Tong'an and Wang Renyou were both a little confused. Although the daughters of the Wang family are all here, the most outstanding one is undoubtedly Wang Jie. She is beautiful and has the most dignity. Why is His Highness King of Jin treating her without hesitation?

On the contrary, he looked at Wang Yan, who was very low-key in the crowd. What's so special about that girl? Although she was a bit beautiful, she seemed to be inferior to her own daughter, let alone any demeanor? Wang Renyou didn't even know who Wang Yan was from which family, but just subconsciously decided in his heart.

But the eldest princess Tong'an is different. She looks a little dizzy to others, but she can see it more thoroughly than anyone else.

When she first saw Wang Yan, she felt that the girl had a familiar feeling, as if she was someone.

Who do you look like?

Princess Tong'an suddenly remembered that more than 20 years ago, there was a girl of similar age with her nephew. She was Gao Shilian's niece and the youngest daughter of the Changsun family. Her nickname was Guanyinbi. Later, she became the queen of the mother Yi Tianxia, ​​but unfortunately she died early.

No wonder Li Zhi saw her at first sight and found that she was a mother and had similarities. Xie Yi didn't understand this reason at first, but he just thought that he fell in love at first sight, but Princess Tong'an knew it clearly.

Which room does this child have? Why did I never pay attention to it? Princess Tong'an couldn't help but feel a little guilty and waved her to let Wang Yan come over.

"Minister Wang Yan has met His Highness King Jin."

"No gift, are you doing well these days?" Li Zhi was obviously very enthusiastic, and his words also exposed the familiar relationship with Wang Yan.

"Have you seen it?" Princess Tong'an asked with a smile.

Xie Yi replied on the side: "When you crossed the Yellow River, your highness happened to be on the same boat as your wife."

So that's the case. I don't know why, but everyone subconsciously said that after a hundred years of cultivation, it's a coincidence that this fate is really a coincidence.

Princess Tong'an nodded slightly, thinking about something.

Wang Renyou's face over there was a little darker. Obviously, he didn't expect that his daughter would be intercepted by someone. But after thinking about it, he didn't think anything was wrong. He just met him once, what's so great? After all, his daughter's talent and demeanor are more outstanding.

But he never expected that his daughter's subsequent performance was really unbearable. Wang Jie, who was neglected, could not help but feel resentful. Her mouth had already pouted, and she was full of displeasure. Her eyes looked at Wang Yan were even more unfriendly, and she didn't even look good to Li Zhi.

The daughter with a strong self-esteem felt as if she was humiliated, but she was not very conscientious and wrote everything on her face.

In this case, it is really...

Xie Yi laughed in his heart, no wonder Queen Wang could not beat Concubine Xiao Shu in the palace, so she led the wolf into the house to invite Wu Meiniang back, and eventually ended up in a miserable defeat. It was really related to her personality and intelligence.

But now it seems that maybe she will lose the opportunity to become Queen Wang from the beginning... (To be continued.)
