It is difficult to describe how big the Wang family's house in Langya is in terms of area. Let's just say that the entire Wuyi Lane street is divided into several large areas from south to north. In addition, There were no other houses on this street in the late Eastern Jin Dynasty.
There is no need to elaborate further on who belongs to several large areas. Among these rows of mansions, the mansion of the Wang and Xie families has the largest area, and the sizes are almost equal, which symbolizes that in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the two families The status is equally matched.
The residences of several other aristocratic families are slightly smaller, and their geographical location is not as good as that of the Wang and Xie families.
The door of his own house was the one he was most familiar with. Wang Mi carried Shen Suanzi and arrived at the door of the palace with ease.
Before he could see the structure inside, Wang Mi was shocked by the two-foot-high vermilion door in front of him.
The momentum of the Wang family is really extraordinary!
Just by looking at this door, you can get a glimpse.
The vermilion door in front of you stands tall and upright, almost two feet high. Its surface is inlaid with huge and shiny black copper nails.
The buckle of the door leaf is not just a simple circle, but is decorated with an exotic lion, with a copper ring in its mouth.
What a magnificent courtyard!
The decoration is also complicated and luxurious. According to Wang Mi's modest historical knowledge, this kind of copper ring decorated with exotic animal patterns became officially popular in the early Tang Dynasty.
And in the late Eastern Jin Dynasty, which was more than two hundred years away from the early Tang Dynasty, the gate of the Langya Wang family's ancestral residence was already equipped with such luxurious decorations, which is really amazing!
It can be seen that the luxury and style of the Langya Wang family are beyond the reach of those high-ranking families in the Tang Dynasty!
This is not surprising. In the Tang Dynasty, especially in the early and middle Tang Dynasties, the emperor was definitely not a decoration. He had absolute power and was powerful in all directions.
Take Li Yifu, who lives in Pingkangfang, for example. During Li Zhi's reign, he once dominated the government and the public, and was in the limelight for a while. In the entire Tang Dynasty, he could punish anyone he wanted, and no one dared to say a word.
Even for such a prestigious and powerful official and traitor, his house in Pingkangfang could not be seen by Li Zhi, who lived in the imperial city. Show respect for the imperial power.)
Of course, the same thing would not be a problem for these aristocratic families in Da Jin.
why?
The answer seems obvious.
Does the emperor here have real power?
Most of the aristocratic families here have been around for hundreds of years, and their foundations are deep and unshakable. The most important thing is that in the entire Jin Dynasty ecosystem, everyone from the emperor to the traffickers and pawns recognize this system.
The status of children of first-class aristocratic families can even be higher than that of the royal family. Their origin is a symbol of status.
It represents honor, dignity, and of course supreme wealth and power.
Under such a system, as long as one comes from a few major aristocratic families, one can move around in the Jin Dynasty without any taboos.
No one pays attention to the regulations of the imperial court and the proper manners officials should have. The house can be built as big as they want and as luxurious as they want.
emperor?
The emperor of the Sima family also relies on the support of our family to sit firmly. Does he dare to take care of it?
With a twist, Wang Mi floated down with Shen Suanzi.
"What are you going to say when you come in later?" He looked at Shen Suanzi and said with a smile.
Status, this is a big issue.
Shen Suanzi wanted to follow him. This matter was of course nothing in the He family, but when he returned to the palace, it was definitely a huge problem.
Wang Mi said something to test Shen Suanzi's mind.
The young lady is also pretty by nature and has a pleasant temperament. The key is to dare to venture into things and have courage. If he is willing to make a good deal with Wang Mi, he is very willing to do so.
"What else can I say?"
"Didn't I tell you a long time ago? I just said he was a guard!" Shen Suanzi's mouth tightened, but his bones were still quite hard.
"All right!"
"That's what you said!"
Wang Mi originally wanted to give her a chance. If she had this determination and was willing to follow him for life, he took her to see Wang Hui to finalize the marriage.
Compared with the Langya Wang family, although her family status of the Wu Xing Shen family was a little lower and was not within the scope of previous marriages between the Wang family, Wang Mi did not care.
However, since Shen Suanzi didn't mean this, he couldn't disobey her.
Hearing that Wang Zhiyuan was back, everyone from the Wang family, old and young, came out in full force. When the door opened, Wang Mi saw a surging crowd roaring towards him!
Good guy!
What is this for?
Wang Mi grabbed Suanzi's little hand and dodged.
Emergency escape!
If they were to collide, a happy event would turn into a tragic event!
"Zhiyuan, you are finally back!"
"I knew you couldn't stay outside!" A middle-aged man with gray hair, tall figure and dignified appearance took long steps and patted his shoulder affectionately.
Wang Mi was very unfamiliar with the smile on his face. Isn't this person the current clan leader of our clan, Wang Hui, Wang Lingjun?
Seeing how enthusiastic he was, Wang Mi almost forgot why he came.
"I met my uncle."
This boy originally thought that he would become vulgar when he came back from Xiangyang, but today he saw that he had not changed at all.
"You still look so handsome. My uncle thought that your appearance would change drastically after you went to the battlefield and were exposed to the wind and sun."
"Look now, it's completely unchanged!"
"Nothing has changed!" Wang Hui was really excited. The fact that Zhiyuan came back so quickly only shows that Wang Hui still has a great reputation.
Wang Mi stood there awkwardly for a long time. Judging from Wang Hui's enthusiasm, he must have forgotten the excuse for calling Wang Mi back.
Lies are lies after all. You see, if you say them without thinking, by the time they are useful, they will no longer be useful.
"Uncle, please let Zhiyuan go and offer incense to daddy first." Wang Mi said calmly, there was nothing he could do, if he didn't remind him, the lie would not be fulfilled.
Wang Hui was stunned on the spot and could not recover for a long time.
"Yep!"
"I really want to go, go quickly!"
After all, Wang Hui was the head of the family, so he took Wang Mi in regardless of the circumstances. Although he acted very quickly, Wang Mi still doubted that he had not thought of this incident at all.
The Langya Wang family implements such a family system. Brothers from the same branch are not separated from each other and all live in the same courtyard.
In other words, since Wang Dao's journey to the south, his sons split up the Wang family and established their own courtyards, the descendants from them onwards will no longer continue to divide the family.
The so-called separation of families only means building tall walls between courtyards or constructing some mountains and rivers to isolate the two families.
But generally speaking, the main family of the Langya Wang family is located on Wuyi Lane, and those fields and houses given extra rewards by the court are not included in it, and their locations vary.
After passing through layers of criss-crossing courtyards, Wang Mi finally arrived at the courtyard where Wang Shao's descendants lived.
As for Wang Mi, he was the only one in trouble among Wang Shao's sons and had a backlog of inventory. After Wang Hui came forward to discuss it, several of Wang Mi's brothers handed over Wang Shao's house to him.
When Wang Mi followed Wang Hui into the wing, he discovered that his residence and Wang Shao's mourning hall were actually at the same place, separated by only a few walls.
When you look up, you can see Wang Shao's spiritual tablet, which is clearly visible on the table and can be seen as soon as you enter the door.
This guy, I bet he has such good luck, it's all because of his father's care.
