"There are trees in the south, so don't stop thinking about them. There are wandering girls in the Han Dynasty, so don't think about them." [Book of Songs·Guofeng·Zhou Nan]
Wang Fu knew that although his family was famous for a while and was more powerful than the princes in Chang'an, but after discarding the name of "foreign relatives", his Wang family was just a small powerful person in Handan County, Zhao State, and the nearest one from the top to the top.
There was a Zhonglang general. Going forward, there was only a Handan man named Wang Lang who was slightly more famous, but his reputation was not good. He was a figure who pretended to be the Liu family and gathered people to rebel against Emperor Guangwu.
The ancestors failed to leave a decent foundation for the Wang family, and there was no decent person in the Wang family. Now, with great luck, God-given luck gave the Wang family a chance to soar into the sky.
, Wang Fu is not stupid, he knows how to grasp it without anyone else telling him.
This time, Wang Fu heard that the Donghai Mi family intended to marry his eldest brother. Wang Fu was overjoyed at first. He said that the Donghai Mi family had hundreds of millions in wealth. Compared with the current imperial treasury, it was really as rich as the country. His family
If he had such good help from Mr. Mi, why worry about not being able to grow stronger? But after he calmed down, he immediately realized that this matter would most likely hit a wall!
"What's wrong?" Sima Yi put down the tea bowl and asked softly. Wang Fu's expression changed so quickly that it was not difficult for him to tell.
Wang Fu shook his head depressedly and said vaguely: "It's nothing."
After saying that, he picked up the tea bowl and took a long sip, as if he was drinking wine.
His own family knew about his family affairs, and his father Wang Bin, for some unknown reason, had always been prejudiced against those powerful noble families. At first Wang Fu thought his father was only targeting a few individuals, but unexpectedly he was wary of everyone. The Wang family's power was
Although he held an important position, he lived alone in the court. Except for Zhang Chang, the young master, who was barely a wing, he didn't even have an ally or support.
In Wang Fu's opinion, how can this be prosperous for a long time?
He asked a few questions about the reason at first, but Wang Bin saw that he had always been too frivolous to tell important things, so he didn't say anything in detail. He only said that He Jin was also an Afu scholar in the past, and eventually died and his family was wiped out. His Wang family is now
But we can't make this mistake again.
This reason was scoffed by Wang Fu, but he couldn't say it clearly, so he had to secretly make a plan in his heart and play his own way, and one day it would all fall into place.
Sima Yi stared at Wang Fu for a long time, and suddenly felt that although Wang Fu was intelligent, his appearance was not bad. It was not without reason that the emperor's biological mother, Wang Meiren, was favored by the late emperor. He thought to himself and said with a smile:
"I wish I had a sister."
"What?" Wang Fu raised his slender eyebrows and said half-seriously: "You want to marry me?"
"Why not?" Sima Yi specially called Wang Fu to his home for a chat today, for these reasons: "Who in the court doesn't want to marry the Wang family? Now that your respected brother is not married yet, no one will have any thoughts about you.
But it will happen sooner or later. I am a layman who seeks to be in favor of power. Since I am on good terms with you, it is not surprising that I have this idea. It is just a pity that my family does not have any female relatives of the right age."
As long as his father Wang Bin is around, as long as someone comes to act as a matchmaker for him, it is conceivable that he will be rejected. This is something that can be imagined. Wang Fu curled his lips, leaned back, and looked at Sima Yi's gaze.
My heart skipped a beat, and I immediately understood something from the other person's words.
His elder brother is his role model. If Wang Duan obeys his father's wishes and accepts an ordinary girl from a good family as his wife, then as the younger brother, he will not be able to escape the fate of accepting a girl from a good family as his wife! The only way is to let the elder brother and the powerful
When you get married, you have a precedent, and you will have the opportunity to choose a 'good match' that is more suitable for him in the future.
This is Wang Fu's real intention to get involved in this "noisy matter" and to enthusiastically seek lifelong happiness for his brother.
At this time, Wang Duan was still standing in the corridor, holding the beaded hairpin in his hand, thinking to himself: "Did I really admit your favor by mistake?"
Thinking hard, anxious, and feeling sad, when Wang Fu saw this look in his eyes, he knew that the opportunity had arrived: "I heard that Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun knew each other and fell in love. Zhuo's father was not happy at first, but in the end he became
A good story. My brother and the Mi girl are now just like Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun back then. Since they are in love with each other, why should they break off this marriage? "
"Hey, you don't understand!" Wang Duan was speechless and couldn't help but stamp his feet angrily.
"I don't understand, but the country once said, 'Only when two people are happy can they last forever.' The country also admires the story of Emperor Xiaoxuan and Queen Gongai the most. It can be seen that even the country is happy to see this." Wang Fu
Pulling up the tiger skin as a banner, he opened his mouth and said: "Brother, this is a lifetime thing! Not everyone can find a family that they like each other. If you miss it today, you will definitely regret it when you grow old!"
Wang Duan is a pure, filial and loyal man. These days, his heart has been torn between filial piety and the Mi clan. Sometimes, no matter how docile a young man like Wang Duan is, once he first tastes love,
They will become stubborn. In fact, the relationship between these two people may not be very deep, but the more someone wants to forcefully separate them, the more they will rebel. This is human nature throughout the ages.
If Wang Bin knew this, there would be no need to use patriarchal pressure, but should deliberately neglect him for a period of time, so that after the two of them get along, it would be easy for him to separate.
Wang Fu saw this clearly and encouraged him from the sidelines. Wang Duan couldn't stand the excitement, and was persuaded by the other party in the end.
Soon, on the third day, Mi Zhu, who had successfully persuaded the Wang brothers to defect to him, came to Wang Bin's house openly and asked for an audience.
"Humph." Wang Bin was taking a rest at this time. He threw the name card on the table and was very unhappy. He sneered and said: "He is sending a 'Geng Tie'!"
"Now the whole city is talking about the marriage between the Mi family and my family. If we turn them away, it may harm our reputation." Wang Fu said on the side.
Wang Bin glanced at Wang Fu and sneered: "You really don't understand. If you let him in, wouldn't it be true for the rumors? This would harm your reputation."
After saying that, he glanced at Wang Duan again. Seeing Wang Duan's haggard expression, Wang Bin felt nervous and quickly looked away: "If we look into it carefully, this rumor may have been spread deliberately by them."
"My son once heard someone say that Mi Zhu's words and deeds are like those of ancient gentlemen, and he would never do such a despicable thing. After talking to each other, they probably didn't want to explain the reason. Didn't Aweng always say, 'listen to both and you will understand'? You might as well do it now.
Seeing it can prove its authenticity." Wang Fu was unusually serious today, his mature and steady acting style made Wang Bin stunned.
"Okay!" Wang Bin couldn't help but look at Wang Duan's face again. In the past two days, Wang Duan had been restless because of the Mi family. He didn't say it on his face, but he was very worried in his heart. At this time, since the real owner
Now that we are here, we might as well open up the conversation, grant him a few small profits, and completely cut off the thoughts between each other, so as not to be involved in the future: "Then invite him here, and let me see what this gentleman from the East China Sea is like."
appearance!"
When Wang Fu heard this, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. As long as his father could let Mi Zhu enter the palace, the matter would be half done. The next step would be to see whether Mi Zhu's demeanor and words could convince Wang Bin.
As the saying goes, "living and moving Qi, nourishing body", after years of pampering and pampering, Mi Zhu naturally has a graceful and generous demeanor, not to mention that he is often invited as a guest to attend the residence of the prince of the East China Sea. He has three thousand jewels and shoes.
I have seen many big scenes, and it was only when I entered the palace to meet the emperor that I was deeply shocked. Other times, such as when I came to Wang Bin's house, my face was calm and my heart was calm.
Although Wang Bin had a prejudice against Mi Zhu, he had to secretly admire the other party's calm and calm demeanor. On another level, Mi Zhu dealt with all the dealings calmly and to the point. In comparison, even the original somewhat
Wang Fu, who was disapproving, felt a little ashamed of himself.
He didn't expect Mi Zhu to have such an impressive temperament.
