Wang Shu is a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old. He is not handsome in appearance, but full of vigor. After entering the palace, he bowed to Li Tai in the manner of a disciple: "I have heard about the reputation of Duke Taiyuan for a long time, and now I am worshiping him.
Seeing the majestic appearance will make you even more famous!"
When Li Tai heard this, he was quite surprised. He hurriedly avoided the table and stood up to avoid the courtesy. He couldn't help but asked: "Why did the prince say this? I have admired my ancestor Wang Zhonggong for a long time, but it's a pity that he is here."
At the time of the Pass, Duke Zhongye had already passed away, so it was a pity that he had only one sided relationship!"
Li Tai entered Guanzhong only after the Battle of Mangshan in the ninth year of Datong, but Wang Zhen died in the seventh year of Datong. His posthumous title was Zhong, so he only heard his name but never met him.
In his memory, he did not seem to have any close interaction or relationship with the Jingzhao Wang clan since he entered the customs. On the contrary, he had been made things difficult by the Jingzhao Wang clan before because of his protégé Mao Shijian. Now this king
It is natural that Li Tai is a little confused when he introduces himself as his disciple.
When the young man Wang Shu heard this, he quickly took out a post from his pocket and handed it to him. He leaned forward and said, "My disciple is being rude. Please ask the Duke of Taiyuan to inspect this thing and you will know. This is the Longyuan Academy."
The students who are here to listen to the teachings and study in the library have already entered the library at the beginning of the year, and they have only come to visit them now. I hope you will forgive me, Lord Taiyuan."
After hearing this, Li Tai finally understood that their feelings for each other were related to each other. He took the apprenticeship card that represented the identity of the academy's student and apprentice and looked through it briefly, and found that Wang Shu had already entered the academy in February of the first year of the year.
After entering the school, he was considered to be the earliest batch of apprentices in the academy.
This is not surprising. The Wang family of Jingzhao is originally from a wealthy family in Kinei. Bacheng County, where Longyuan Academy is located, is the location of their hometown. Naturally, they are keenly aware of any disturbances in the countryside. Seeing the rise of Longyuan Academy’s reputation, they decided to advance in advance.
It is not difficult to arrange for your own children to enter school.
This disciple's post also records Wang Shu's admission history. After entering the academy, he studied in classics, history, literature, six arts and other schools, and many of his grades were excellent. Naturally, it is difficult to directly compare people to the more than half a year of study in Longyuan Academy.
Wang Shu's achievements in cultivating him to be an all-rounder are probably mainly due to his excellent family education.
But in fact, this alone is not enough to determine the relationship between the sect leader's disciples. After all, Longyuan Academy now has a large number of students, and even Yu Wentai's son Yu Wenyu and several princes and clan disciples are studying there.
Of course, it was impossible for Li Tai to treat these people as his disciples.
So the key is to see whether both parties are willing to enter into or recognize this relationship. Take the surname given to Yuwentai as an example. Some people are proud of it, while others don't take it seriously. They just have to bear it on the surface.
This Wang Shuben was given the surname Yuwen, and he also named Yuwen on the name sticker when he came to see him. However, he still called himself by his real name when communicating with Li Tai. This shows that he does not feel that Yuwen is more precious than his own surname in his heart, but he is forced to
There is no way to refuse power.
Li Tai still remembers that in the old days, the children of the Jingzhao Wang family treated him very rudely, but now Wang Zhen's grandson pays homage to him with the courtesy of a disciple. This is certainly because he is different from the past and has a high status, but he wants to come
This Wang Shu probably has his own agenda, and may be related to the personnel twists and turns that the Wang family in Jingzhao is experiencing now.
Li Tai also felt quite guilty about this. He knew that his father-in-law was behind this incident, but he didn't know that the Wang clan members were not aware of this.
So when talking to Wang Shu, he only asked about his study and life in the academy, and his words did not touch on the previous incident.
After all, Wang Shu couldn't hold himself back. After answering a few questions from Li Tai, he couldn't help but said: "My disciples are not talented. I was appreciated by the Tai government and recommended by the villagers, so I was awarded the title of governor of the county."
Rural soldiers. But now the people's livelihood in the pass is in order, and there are few military disturbances. It is not because the husband pursues meritorious service. But in Jingzhou, southeast of Taiyuan Gongsuo Town, it is a popular place, which makes people yearn for it. I sincerely ask you to follow Taiyuan Gong southward.
Expand territory and make achievements!”
When Li Tai heard this, he roughly understood Wang Shu's thoughts. Wang Mingyuan's incident probably left the Wang clan with lingering fears, and he also understood that the surname given by Daxingtai was not simply a matter of honor and favor. All three of Wang Zhen, his father and son, died, and now the family members
There is no one who is responsible for the appearance. Instead of continuing to stay in the deep and rough Gyeonggi and suffer the wind and waves, it is indeed better to go to other places to look for possibilities and opportunities for advancement.
The biggest opportunity for all sides of the current dynasty is the southeastern theater guarded by Li Tai. Moreover, Li Tai is also the youngest among the first-level big men in the country, so the chances of taking refuge with him are naturally much greater than those of others.
If it were anyone else, Li Tai would be happy to accept this kind of descendant of the powerful Guanlong clan with his own tribe. If such a person serves under him, even if he does not stay in Guanzhong for a long time, he can still guarantee his success in Guanzhong.
Influence.
However, due to what happened in the Wang family, Li Tai was not able to directly agree to the other party for a while, but he did not say anything immediately, but replied: "Wang Lang has such an ambition, it is really commendable. I am
He takes a few steps in the process and is very willing to guide young people in the country to embark on a successful career.
But today, the personnel affairs in the southeast are not my specialty, and I will have to go to the government to discuss it carefully with Daxingtai later. I will bear in mind what Wang Lang asked me to do, and I will send someone to inform you as soon as possible if there is any clue about the matter later, whether it is successful or not.
"
After Wang Shu heard this, he thanked him again and again, and then stood up to leave.
Li Tai was more concerned about Wang Shu coming to express his support. Judging from his biography, he was good at literature and history, and was good at riding and shooting. He was not a playboy from a well-known family, but he could be said to be both civil and military.
Another important point is that when Wang Zhen was alive, he was in charge of many large states and supervised the military, so he also cultivated a group of elite soldiers under his family. Although he has passed away now, these tribes and soldiers have been passed down.
The reason why Yu Wentai gave his surname to his family and accepted him as a member of the same clan was not only to settle the previous personnel disputes, but also probably for the purpose of recruiting veterans of the Wang clan.
However, before formally agreeing to the other party, Li Tai still had to ask his father-in-law for his opinion. If Dugu Xin's methods were too ruthless and his image was too dishonorable in the previous incident, then Li Tai also had to weigh the impact of the incident being exposed.
So after Wang Shu left, Li Tai also put aside other visits and went straight to his father-in-law's house.
When Dugu Xin listened to Li Tai's statement about his purpose, he immediately burst into laughter, patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Boshan is becoming more and more like a young leader. These famous young disciples are already very high-spirited, and they can lead them in the world."
There are really not many people who have followed suit, but now they are heading straight to the court to wait for their removal. If you don't accept me with a smile, you may lose the hope of others!"
"But before Wang Mingyuan died..."
After Li Tai heard this, he expressed his concerns.
"The death of Wang Mingyuan has been concluded by the imperial court and the Taiwanese government, and the rest has nothing to do with it. Privately speaking, he did not hesitate to sacrifice his life to defend his hometown. Now that his wish has been fulfilled, he has been worshiped and respected by the locals. It can be said that he seeks benevolence and gets benevolence.
, there is nothing to regret. Boshan, you have nothing to do with this in the first place, so there is no need to have any doubts."
When Dugu Xin heard what Li Tai said, he understood in his heart. He first comforted him a little, and then said: "Actually, I was not expecting the situation to develop to this point. I don't know why Wang Mingyuan made this plan.
.After we agreed on the matter, I invited Wei Kui to discuss the matter in detail, and it was Wei Kui who also came forward to invite Wang Mingyuan..."
After hearing his father-in-law take the initiative to tell the truth, Li Tai realized that the matter had such twists and turns.
He was a little curious at first. Although Dugu Xin had a lot of seniority, he had moved around various towns over the years, especially in Longyouyi for many years. He didn't really stay in Guanzhong for much time. How could he instigate such an incident so calmly?
It turned out that I came out because of my cooperation with Jingzhao Webster.
Wei Kuang is the elder brother of Wei Xiaokuan, a famous hermit in Guanzhong. He is now also a permanent resident of his Longyuan Academy, and he was called Xiaoyao Gong in later generations. Now it seems that Xiaoyao Gong is not as carefree as he seems on the surface.
After clarifying this secret, Dugu Xin then said: "Well, Yu Wenshu, since this son has taken the initiative to ask for shelter from you, it's okay for Boshan to accept it. These famous people in Guanzhong all have their own difficulties in their lives.
It is far from being as calm as it seems on the surface. Now the Wang family does not have a long-term household, and if Boshan does not accept it, it will be inevitable that the power will be divided up among others soon."
After hearing this, Li Tai nodded and was quite touched by this. Not to mention his disciple Mao Shijian's family, they were originally great tycoons in Guanzhong. Even Yu Wentai and others treated them with great courtesy, but as Mao Hongyuan
, the Mao Hongbin brothers died one after another, and the family declined quickly. The Jingzhao Wang family also participated in carving up the rural capital power after the decline of the Mao family, and now it is the turn of the Jingzhao Wang family themselves.
Since it was not Duguxin himself who promoted Wang Mingyuan's death, Li Tai would not have any psychological burden to accept Wang Shu's surrender. Although Wang Shu has been labeled as the Yuwen clan, he was already a member of the Yuwen clan before that.
My disciple, no matter how hard he insists on such a trivial matter, it would be disrespectful to Daxingtai.
