Zhang Guanghe patted his wife's head and said, "You know Jiang Yan, the water conservancy project owner. When this guy was unknown and didn't take on a major role, his salary wasn't much. He often helped the people outside. Later, he adopted two boys and brought them with him. He spent all his money on himself and often had to rely on his wife to send him clothes, shoes, socks, and food money from home to supplement his income."
His family consists of two elderly people, a pair of younger siblings, a daughter-in-law who runs the household, and three sons and a daughter. It was because Shangshu Wang's family had been regularly remitting banknotes to his daughter-in-law more than ten years ago that his family was able to survive and survive until Jiangyan became famous all over the world.
It was not because he knew that Jiang Yan would have a bright future, but because Jiang Yan's father was also a minor official in the Ministry of Works, and came from a water conservancy background. Shangshu Wang had met him once before, and had been helping him since he learned about his difficulties.
Shangshu Wang was also protective of his subordinates. Whenever his subordinates made mistakes, he would take the blame. For example, when Sulaiman, an interpreter from a minority ethnic group with no foundation or support, made a huge mistake when translating the name of the late emperor and was panicked and at a loss, it was Shangshu Wang who took the blame. Sulaiman was fine, and he was directly demoted to a county magistrate. Later, when old man Xuanyuan needed someone, he rescued him.
These things are easier said than done. If the Wang family helps the Crown Prince and Empress in the future, then the Crown Prince's support will increase significantly.
Although the Fifth Prince has a good relationship with the Ren family army, He Qing is an old subordinate of Zhang Jia's Twelve Son. Zhang Jia's Fifth Son saved He Qing's life. If the Queen stands behind His Majesty one day and stands behind the Prince, what will He Qing choose?
Wang Lingyi's husband is the young marquis of Ningyuan Marquisate, and Ningyuan Marquis still controls the Western Route Army.
Prince Qing and Prince Yu are not leading troops now, and Ye Zhou is in charge of the Yunnan Army. However, the mysterious Gu Clan in southern Yunnan, whose power is unknown, has a high priest who is a good friend of Wang Xipei.
Think about it, the Wang family is not important. Without them, the military might not be victorious, and the civil officials have all turned against you. Your Majesty, though a rare wise ruler, still suffers from this stubborn streak from time to time. If it weren't for Empress Zhang Ru in the harem and the loyal Wang family in the previous dynasty... if all those who protected you were disheartened... Your Majesty, though a powerful ruler, is still human. Any mistake he makes would be a mountain to the ground for others. I hope Your Majesty will think about Liu Bei throwing his child and figure it out soon... Let's go to bed."
Zhang's wife: "Did you lie to the emperor? You really can't take this job?"
Zhang Guanghe smiled and said, "Of course I can accept it. Your Majesty is able to manage so many capable people to serve you. Their talents, wisdom and strategies far surpass ours. Your Majesty knows clearly that I can accept it and that I am not lying. If I accept it, I will inevitably start a new party, and that will be a factional struggle. What we are competing for is not my individual ability, but the ability of a group of people, the accumulation of more than ten or twenty years. I can accept it, but I can't. Personally, I can't win, and publicly, it will be of no benefit to national affairs."
Wang Xipei never thought that it was the Fourth Prince who directly stood up for her. The Fourth Prince beat the Fifth Prince when he left the court. After the Fifth Prince was caught off guard for the first time, he began to fight back. The Fourth Prince could not beat the Fifth Prince, but he fought with all his might. The two fought and were eventually separated by the Yulin Guards.
When they parted, the fourth brother was still scolding the fifth brother: "If you don't like me, why did you ask for my hand in marriage? If you have anything to say, come to me. Do you think you are a human being if you bully a little girl?"
Lao Wu remained silent.
Xuanyuan Hao called the two of them over.
The fifth prince said, "My son won't divorce me. I'm afraid my fourth brother will have his eyes on her."
The fourth prince said, "After the divorce, you are free. If you can marry your sister-in-law, I can marry my brother-in-law."
"Bang!" Xuanyuan Hao smashed the cup. Two rebellious sons.
Zhang Ru hurried over, brought some medicine, and asked the palace servants to apply it to the two children.
He then advised Xuanyuan Hao: "It's better to make a decision as soon as possible. If you delay it for too long, there will be more rumors and the children will be confused."
Xuanyuan Hao looked at the two people with bruised faces and noses, thought about Minister Wang’s angry red face, and finally approved the divorce.
Three months later, Wang Xipei left Kyoto. When she left, snowflakes fell from the sky.
There is no way not to leave.
More than two months after the divorce, the fifth prince married Ren Jiayu, and the invitation was delivered to Wang Xipei.
Wang Lingyi held her sister's hand and said, "Don't worry about it. Let's live our own lives."
Wang Xipei said, "Since Baba has sent me an invitation, I'll go. They're all beating drums and gongs, so I have nothing to be ashamed of."
Wang Lingyi said, "Okay, I'll accompany you."
The sisters Wang Lingyi and Wang Xipei were already extremely beautiful. When Wang Xipei grew up, her bone structure and facial shape changed. She was no longer a cute baby face, but had a cool and gorgeous look. When she smiled, she was even more breathtaking.
The two women were extremely bright and beautiful. Although they were wearing ordinary flowing cloud brocade skirts with black, red and white patterns, they seemed to be wearing the vast land on their bodies.
Accompanying him were the young marquis Jiang Heng and the fourth prince Xuanyuan Mingrui, both handsome and unparalleled young masters. The four of them went to the fifth prince's mansion to attend the wedding banquet. As soon as they got off the carriage, they could feel that everyone's eyes were almost glued to them.
These four people standing together are really beautiful. What's more, Wang Xipei is one of the protagonists at the center of the gossip.
The fifth prince Xuanyuan Huaiyu looked at the two pairs of beautiful people who walked in, and his eyes fell on Wang Xipei. She was still thin and her face was a little pale, but her big eyes were brighter than ever before, and she looked around with radiance. When she spoke to her fourth brother, the corners of her mouth curved into a smile.
His hands clenched slightly. This was the first time he saw her since she committed suicide in front of him. He wanted to visit her, but was politely refused.
Wang Xipei hadn't expected Ren Jiayu to cause trouble again. A maid serving at their table of women wore a dazzling, peacock-shaped headdress inlaid with kingfisher feathers. It was a piece of jewelry her grandmother had left her; her sister, Wang Lingyi, had an identical piece.
This piece of jewelry was in her dowry. When the dowry was taken back by the palace, sixteen pieces of jewelry were found to be missing. The palace said they would look for them and compensate them for the original price if they were not found. Among them was this peacock-shaped hairpin with kingfisher feathers.
Wang Xipei immediately understood that he might have opened the warehouse to let his sweetheart take whatever she wanted, and the sixteen pieces of jewelry were probably used to please Ren Jiayu.
Now Ren Jiayu deliberately rewarded the servant and asked her to serve at this table... This was her grandmother's legacy... The box containing this hairpin in the storeroom was very exquisite, and it was engraved with the title and name of her grandmother, which could be seen at a glance.
