……
In fact, in the earliest days.
Wang Shouzhe only knew that there was a Wang family of Daqian in Guilong City, the capital of Daqian Kingdom. Later, after communicating more with the Wang family of Longzuo, and becoming more and more aware of the world structure, he learned that there was also a Wang family in Monan.
That is also a side branch of the Wang family that branched off from Da Qian, and it was a branch of the Heavenly Man branch that branched off as early as a thousand or hundreds of years ago. It's just that that branch has developed well and is relatively close to the main branch. It became the Zifu family more than 700 years ago.
Nowadays, the Monan Wang family has completed its second change of purple house and is currently undergoing its third change of purple house. It can be regarded as a stable fifth-grade family.
In the early years, when the Longzuo Wang family was still a member of the Zifu family, they also had contacts with the Monan Wang family.
It was only later that the Wang family of Longzuo failed to complete the succession of the Zifu, and the family failed to recover and gradually declined. As time goes by, the exchanges between the two parties become less and less, and the affection gradually fades.
Especially in the past one or two hundred years, the Monan Wang family and the Longzuo Wang family have rarely moved around. And most of them are from the Monan Wang family. When passing through Longzuo County on business, they would stop by to visit.
Because of the severe decline in strength of the Longzuo Wang Clan and the narrow scope of their activities, they naturally had little interaction with the Monan Wang Clan, and the two sides became increasingly estranged.
Both the Monan Wang family and the Longzuo Wang family are already so estranged, let alone the Changning Wang family. Anyway, Wang Shouzhe has never had any dealings with the Monan Wang family since he succeeded to the throne.
Therefore, when he came to Monan this time, his original intention was to come and leave quietly, and he didn't even think about meeting a relative or anything.
Who would have thought that he would meet someone from the Monan Wang family under such circumstances? And it sounds like the person coming is a junior from the "room" generation...
While Wang Shouzhe and his ancestor were keeping a low profile and were speechless.
The head of the Mo family over there turned cold and scolded angrily: "Royal Wang Hai, since you are still young, I usually let you do whatever you want. But this time, I am entertaining distinguished guests from Longzuo~~ You are so messy, Do you really think that I, Mr. Mo, am a vegetarian?"
"A distinguished guest from Longzuo? You are just a bumpkin from a remote country~" a certain dude next to Wang Wanghai shouted, "I don't even open my eyes to see whose territory this is! Brothers~~Here I turned their tables over!"
Within a few words, the verbal conflict between the two parties began to escalate. The royal family and other young dandies were so excited that they rushed forward and overturned the whole table of dishes to the ground with a bang.
"Feiyang is so domineering!" The head of the Mo family was so angry that his whole body trembled. He turned to Qian Xuehan and said apologetically, "Patriarch Xuehan, please go ahead. I don't believe it, this little devil of the Wang family still dares It’s against the sky..."
Unexpectedly.
Before he finished speaking, Qian Xuehan stood up and stopped the head of the Mo family.
He glanced at the young people waiting in the Royal Palace with squinted eyes, and said loudly: "Young people, please don't be impulsive, and listen to me first."
"Who are you, what qualifications do you have to speak?" A domineering dandy glanced at him disdainfully, "In front of Mr. Hai, our Monan County official, if you are a dragon, you have to sit down, and if you are a tiger, you have to lie down. ."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the two Heavenly Realm elders accompanying Qian Xuehan changed, and they immediately stood up and prepared to take action.
Qian Xuehan is the new head of the Qian family, with a distinguished status.
Although the Presbyterian Council can restrict the family head, the overall status and power of the family head are still not low. What's more, outside the family, the head of the family represents the Qian family, how can he be so humiliated?
"Wait a minute."
Qian Xuehan raised his hand to stop the elder, then looked at Wang Guanghai, and said calmly: "I am Qian Xuehan, the head of the Qian family in Longzuo, a fifth-grade family. My dear friend Wang, are you planning to provoke Mo Mo?" Is there an enmity between the Nan Wang family and the Longzuo Qian family?"
His attitude was still courteous and courteous, and he did not appear arrogant. However, following his words, a sense of superiority arose, and a touch of majesty was added to his expression.
The Qian family of Longzuo belongs to a fifth-grade Zifu family. As the new head of the family, he naturally has his social status.
"Fifth-grade family? Head of the family?"
The face of the young master Wang Wanghai changed, and he glared at his "companion" with some annoyance, as if he was questioning the other party as to why the investigation information was wrong.
After all, Wang Wanghai is a junior and has not yet held a position in the family. But the other party is the head of a fifth-grade family, and his status is equivalent to that of his father Wang Zonghao in the Monan Wang family.
Although he is known as the "little devil", he is not an idiot. Although the other party was just a dragon crossing the river, he couldn't afford to provoke a powerful enemy like Qian's family for nothing.
It's just that he was still young and energetic, so he was a little hesitant to get off stage for a while, and his expression was a little uncertain.
"Forget it." Qian Xuehan waved his hand magnanimously and said, "This matter is obviously a misunderstanding. Don't dwell on it anymore. It's a trivial matter."
"Haha~~ Since it is the guest of the Qian family from Longzuo, then my royal family will naturally give the Qian family a face."
Wang Wanghai had long thought of retreating. When he saw the stairs, he immediately walked down the **** and said something polite, and then gave the head of the Mo family a hard look.
"Let's settle this matter later."
Unexpectedly.
Qian Xuehan smiled and said: "My little friend, please stay. I think you are rich, handsome and have extraordinary talents. You must be the genius of the younger generation of Monan Wang family."
"Qian likes to make friends with young talents most. If you don't mind, Qian will prepare a new banquet to entertain all young talents."
Since Qian Xuehan ascended to the position of the head of the family, he has gradually shown a mature, steady and measured demeanor, which is completely different from his original image of being cautious and frequently calling "Shou Zhe, help me".
After all, Wang Guanghai is just a talented boy in his twenties. How can he be Qian Xuehan’s opponent?
With a few words, he was coaxed by Qian Xuehan into being elated, and he agreed to his invitation with a little reserve.
Of course, this is also because Qian Xuehan is the head of a fifth-grade family. If he is just the head of a seventh-grade family and goes to make friends with the royal family, most people will look at you with their noses in the sky.
Only the head of the Mo family and the two ancestors of the Celestial Beings had unnatural expressions on the scene, and seemed a little gloomy and unhappy. But even if they were dissatisfied and angry, they did not dare to express it in front of Qian Xuehan.
Wang Shouzhe watched this scene silently, his mind as clear as a mirror.
He can bring the down-and-out ninth-grade Wang family all the way to the current level of strong seven and six. How can he be an easy person?
The knowledge and vision in his previous life only laid the foundation for his current life. In this life, he has worked hard to grow up to this point, and he is no longer the same person he was when he was eighteen.
At Mo's banquet this time, Wang's royal family and the dandies rushed in to make trouble. On the surface, it looked like a mindless conflict and hatred plot in a third-rate fantasy novel.
But various details show that this is probably a secret arrangement by Mo.
Deliberately reserved the table reserved by Wang Wanghai, in order to anger the young and energetic Wangwang Hai, so that he can join the crowd to cause trouble. And the dude who made the provocation first might be the chess piece arranged by Mo.
And the head of the Mo family seemed to have casually said "Wang's little devil", which made Qian Xuehan unconsciously think that the other party was making trouble unreasonably.
They were probably sure that Qian Xuehan would become the head of the family when he was only in his forties, and he should be in the most high-spirited and arrogant state. Once a conflict breaks out between the two parties, they only need to add fuel to the flames to worsen the relationship between the Qian family and the Wang family, and thereby tie the Qian family firmly to the Mo family's warship.
What a pity.
Mr. Mo underestimated Qian Xuehan too much. That guy was best at forbearance and planning.
At the beginning, he had long known that his stepmother had no good intentions, so he usually acted obedient and openly harmless, but secretly he had already secretly made love with the maid next to his stepmother, coaxing her into ecstasy with sweet words, and secretly promised The little girl received all kinds of benefits and a bright future.
After that, he used the girl to inform him, and after seizing the opportunity, he used various conditions to launch a desperate counterattack.
How Wang Shouzhe knew this was naturally because Qian Xuehan's previous actions were suspected of taking advantage of the Wang family. Wang Shouzhe felt that Qian Xuehan was not simple, so he secretly sent someone to investigate. The result was not what Wang Shouzhe expected, it was all true.
This is not the most powerful thing.
The most amazing thing is that Qian Xuehan, regardless of the fact that he did not have a wife yet, and regardless of the opposition of others, actually took the maid as his concubine. The concubine's mother clan, the ninth-grade aristocratic family that vassalized the Qian family , has also been reused as the tide has risen, and it is quite like a chicken or a dog ascending to heaven.
All the promises and benefits I had made to the girl were fulfilled one by one.
With this move, even Wang Shouzhe secretly praised his clear mind.
After all, although his previous calculations were just pushing the boat forward, he could not hide it from the investigation of interested people. But this operation of his, although it slightly damaged his reputation and made it difficult for him to marry a wife in the future, it also put up a sign that he was true to his word, indirectly showing others that he was just out of helplessness and to protect himself. .
At this point, even Wang Shouzhe couldn't really figure out Qian Xuehan for the time being, so he had to deal with him cautiously.
How could such a person be led by the nose because of a small plot by Mo's family?
He took advantage of the opportunity to invite the royal family to make friends, which not only resolved the conflict, but also gave Mo a stick and warned them to abide by their duties.
Soon, someone cleaned up the place and replaced the table.
This time, Qian Xuehan no longer listened to Mo's arrangements, and took the initiative like a host.
As for the Mo family who were usurped by Xuan Bin, they are still suffering now. After all, they were the ones who planned the plan first and they were in the wrong.
What's more, even if they don't accept their losses, they have no choice but to let him enjoy themselves when faced with the Qian family leader's "randomness".
Qian Xuehan first appeased everyone in the royal family like a spring breeze, and then he came to Wang Shouzhe and Longyan Patriarch in a grand manner and bowed deeply: "Master Shouzhe, Patriarch Longyan. In the past, it was not the juniors who treated guests, but because the guests followed the host, the juniors were not good at making decisions."
"This new large table is paid for privately by this junior. Even if you two don't mind, I don't dare to allow you two to suffer the injustice and sit at the bottom of the table."
"What?"
The heads of the Mo family and the royal family all looked at this scene in shock.
Especially those of the Mo family are even more confused. Didn't I introduce you to a seventh-grade aristocratic family before? Why is the head of the fifth-grade Zi Mansion so respectful and polite to them?
"Master Xuehan, these two... what exactly are you..." The head of the Mo family hurriedly came forward and asked in a low voice, "Could it be that... I was rude before?"
"Old Mo, Old Mo~" Qian Xuehan changed his name to him and took the opportunity to say, "You, you, you really need to keep your eyes open. Our Shouzhe family master is so noble and has extraordinary bearing. , is it so distasteful to you?"
Then, he ignored the surprise of the head of the Mo family and respectfully invited Patriarch Longyan to become the chief guest. At the same time, he also pulled Wang Shouzhe to sit at the second guest seat.
After some rearrangements, everyone sat down at the big round table.
However, he also adhered to Wang Shouzhe's principle of not wanting to be too high-profile, and just introduced him again. He was from the head of the Wang family in Changning, Longzuo, and the ancestor of the family, Longyan.
In his words, he vaguely pointed out that the Wang family was different from other seventh-grade families.
When he heard that it was the Wang family of Longzuo Changning, Wang Guanghai could not help but frown: "Brother, I just heard the head of the Qian family call you... the head of the Shouzhe family? Your name is Wang Shouzhe? What is the name of Shouzhe?" Which word for philosophy?"
Wang Shouzhe didn't know what he was thinking, but at this time there was nothing to hide. Before he came, he really didn't think about going to the Monan Wang family to get relatives.
However, when they met by chance, he was not so pretentious as to deliberately conceal it. Immediately, Wang Shouzhe said with a smile: "Stick to your heart, and know others and you will be wise."
"Boom!"
Wang Wanghai seemed to feel a lightning strike from the sky, which made him feel dizzy. His face turned blue and white, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.
The friends on the side were surprised and said: "Thirty-ninth Young Master...that dear man's name is similar to your grandfather, except that the word "Zhe" is a little different."
"Shut up!" Wang Guanghai blushed and glared back, "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb." Then, he stared at Wang Shouzhe with a somewhat unkind look: "Brother, you did this on purpose. Are you here to entertain me?"
"Oh~ I also think this is a coincidence." Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, "But there is no way. Who dares to change the generation order passed down by our ancestors? Our Wang family in Changning, Longzuo, is Longzuo A branch of the Wang family, and the Longzuo Wang family is a branch of the Daqian Wang family...According to the generation order of your family, according to tradition, you can call me Fourth Grandpa according to my order in my own clan."
"Fourth Grandpa? Let me go..." Wang Wanghai's face turned red, angry and angry. He was about to curse, but he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly swallowed the curse words back into his belly.
Aristocratic families have their own rules, and the older the family, the stricter the rules. A family that has been passed down for thousands of years will inevitably have various branches. How to determine the seniority naturally depends on the generation.
The relationship between the Changning Wang family and the Monan Wang family is called the same clan but different clans. Although they are not the same family, they are the same clan. Everyone can trace their roots back to the Daqian Wang family based on their family trees. This relationship is called clan.
Everyone from generation to generation, descendants of the aristocratic family, has well-documented records and must not mess around.
For people like the Wang family from Changning and the Wang family from Monan, it would be fine if they didn’t interact with each other or have any contact with them. But if we meet each other and talk about seniority, we have to rank them in order of seniority.
As long as you are not pretending to be a clan relative, no matter how downcast or poor the other person is, you have to address them by their seniority.
No matter how coquettish the royal family is, they would not dare to make mistakes on such matters, otherwise once the news reaches the ears of the elders of his family, they may be dealt with according to family rules.
"Haha, little friend Shihai, I can vouch for the identity of the head of the Shouzhe family." Qian Xuehan seemed to have expected it, and said with a smile, "The Wang family of Longzuo and the Wang family of Changning, in my Longzuo County is not an unknown clan, how can we just pretend to be such a big deal?"
"I sent someone back to ask if there was a Wang family in Longzuo." Although Wang Guanghai believed 80% to 90% of his heart, he still sent a general outside the door to run back to the main house to ask about the situation. .
The atmosphere that followed was a bit dull, but Wang Shouzhe and Qian Xuehan enjoyed their meal happily.
Less than half an hour.
A man with a square face and extraordinary appearance came in with a group of people. As soon as he came in, he bent down to salute and said loudly: "The Longzuo clan comes to my Monan, Zong Hao, the head of the Wang family in Monan , I accidentally failed to greet you, and I was rude and disrespectful."
"Dad..." Wang Wanghai's face suddenly became embarrassed.
Normally speaking, when aristocratic families go to do business on their clan's territory, they will stop by for a visit. And the other party will also show etiquette and entertain them according to the standards.
That's fine if you don't know. If you know and don't come forward to receive them, then the Monan Wang family will inevitably be labeled as a person who dislikes the poor and loves the rich, and has no ancestors or ancestors. If it spreads, they will be ridiculed.
Wang Shouzhe also stood up according to etiquette, returned the gift in a polite manner, and said with the same hearty smile: "Master Zonghao, don't blame yourself. Shouzhe didn't want to work with his fellow clan members during this trip, so he hid his whereabouts. No wonder the family master Zonghao has ."
Wang Wanghai hurriedly stood up and saluted with a blushing face: "Fourth Grandpa, Shi Hai is rude."
