Later, Nangong Yi and Li You talked about Li Yuan in detail. Li Yuan is a royal family clan, and his ancestor is Tang Gaozu Li Yuan's collateral cousin. When Datang established the country, his ancestor was named the country's lord, but unfortunately, the ancestral title was not hereditary, but ordinary hereditary. Liujue.
The hereditary system of the Tang Dynasty is divided into hereditary and ordinary hereditary. There is no limit to the number of hereditary inheritances in the former, and the inheritor will inherit whatever title it is. In other words, when Datang was founded, it was the Duke of the Country, and it is still the Duke of the Country. The latter is different. Every time a title is inherited, the original title will be lowered by one level and gradually decrease.
Li Yuan is an ordinary hereditary title inherited from his ancestors. He was the Lord of the Country when the country was founded. Now more than a hundred years have passed. The Lord of the Country, the Lord of the County, the Lord of the County, the Lord of the Country, the Lord of the County, after five generations, to him, his title He has become a county marquis, but he has taken over the title, but Li Yuan does not have any official positions. There are tens of thousands of clan relatives in Chang'an with the surname Li. Not every family is wealthy and wealthy. There are also many clan relatives who are extremely desolate. There are still many ruined households like Li Yuan in Chang'an.
After listening to Nangongyi's account, Li You chuckled slightly and nodded and said, "Okay, I will meet him tomorrow."
In the early morning of the next morning, the sound of firecrackers in Pei's Mansion in Anyifang made the drum music loud, which disturbed many people around. Even Anyifang is separated by two Fangnei streets to the south, but this is nothing. Most of the people who can live here are people with good looks. Today, when Pei’s house has wine, they will also go to congratulate each other.
In a mansion in the southeast corner of Anyifang, the hostess He Shi woke up from sleep. She turned to look at Li Yuan beside her, patted his face, and saw that he was not awake, so she knelt and sat down. When the bed collapsed, she pulled Li Yuan's arm again, and after shaking Li Yuan awake, she said, "Da Lang, it's time to get up."
Hearing his wife’s words, Li Yuan, who had not yet fully woken up, was a little unhappy, and slightly dissatisfied: "I said, Madam, why do you disturb your dreams in this early morning! Today is going to the Pei Mansion to congratulate you. But this is also at noon, and it's still early."
"Da Lang, don't we have to make some preparations, besides, don't you have to prepare the gift, it will take time."
Li Yuan sat up helplessly. He said: "There is no need to prepare anything. The Pei family is not short of anything. It is good to congratulate you with money. Although it is a bit cheesy, it saves us any more trouble. These days, I just want to break my head, but I can't think of what to give."
After saying this, Li Yuan called the maid again, and asked her to tell the butler to prepare a hundred guan worth of money as a gift. He became anxious when he heard the hundred guan, she said: "Dalang, you and Pei I’m not familiar with the family, do we need to give people such a heavy gift?"
Li Yuan said in a reproachful tone: "Women, what do you know! Although our family is in decline, this hundred guan can still be obtained. There are a lot of people who come to Pei’s house today to congratulate them. It is the time to make friends with nobles. I'll try my luck, maybe I will make friends with noble people!"
Without waiting for He's reaction, Li Yuan instructed the maid: "Yichun, go and let the butler prepare quickly." ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм
"Yes, sir." Yi Chun turned around and walked out of the bedroom in response to these words.
After the maid left, He Shi put on a thin layer of underwear and got up to serve his own man. He's still complaining about Li Yuan's poverty. She murmured, "Dalang, is it necessary to prepare such a heavy gift? This is enough for our family to spend several months. We have no money. If the money goes out, our life will be much tighter."
Li Yuan sighed and shook his head slightly: "Oh! I have no titles, but I don't even have half of the title. It's really boring to live like this every day and wait for death. You think I want to give such a heavy gift. There’s no other way. To put it awkwardly, Pei’s family didn’t invite you. Your husband rushed to post it with his face."
Li Yuan has the title of a county marquis, and he has a salary to receive every month. With the addition of some fields left by his ancestors, it is enough for a family to live. But this is also relatively speaking. If it is compared to the nobles of the same rank who are in power in the court, it is far behind. If his generation continues to mix in this way, his next generation will be sad. This It is also the reason why he tried every possible means to find a position, but if he wants to succeed, it really depends on luck and timing.
Thinking of the decline of his family, He can only sigh and lament his own destiny, but no matter what, since he is married to Li Yuan, he can only do that. As the saying goes, marry a chicken with a chicken, and a dog with a dog. There is no alternative. After helping Li Yuan get dressed, He Shi also began to dress up.
After the husband and wife had freshened up, they took their two servants to carry the presents after their breakfast. Under the service of the maid Yichun, they got into the carriage and headed to Pei's mansion in the same workshop.
Since they lived in the same workshop, the distance was less than two miles, and after a while, they arrived. Li Yuan got out of the carriage first, and then helped his wife He Shi to get out of the carriage. Only then did they notice the door courtyard of Pei’s house. The side door was full of people lining up to give gifts and the crowded carriages parked on the street. Li Yuan was also happy with this situation. He didn't expect that there would be so many people in Pei's Mansion today, and it is a good thing for him to have so many people.
Because there is no invitation card, Li Yuan can only queue up like everyone else. Although there is no invitation card, Li Yuan is always a Marquis, and he can definitely enter. Generally speaking, the people who line up here to give gifts are not ordinary people, otherwise the time The host's refusal to accept gifts is a bit embarrassing.
Seeing so many people lined up at the side entrance, Yi Chun, the maid supporting He's family, asked: "Madam, there are so many people here! Why don't you go to the main entrance?" New Bayi Chinese website first published
Yichun is only fourteen years old, and many rules are not known. He is about to speak, so Li Yuan turned around and taught a lesson: "Yichun, when we get to us, remember, don’t talk nonsense, listen. Is it clear? Otherwise, I will not spare you."
Yichun was taken aback by Li Yuan's solemn words and expressions, and her body trembled. He hurriedly replied, "The maidservant knows that she will definitely not cause trouble to the master and madam."
"Dalang, Yichun is a sensible girl, don't scare her like that, she is still young!"
Li Yuan also knew that his wife was only a close-knit maid like Yichun, and the two of them were very emotional, so they stopped talking.
At the main entrance, a very luxurious carriage stopped. It was a carriage offered by Cheng Bo. Pei Shao, the eldest son of Pei’s family and Pei Kuan’s eldest son, saw someone get out of the car, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Seeing the general of the process, it's polite to be an official, please invite the general."
Cheng Boxian laughed and said, "It's all about Pei, it's Pei Ge's birthday today. I'm here to congratulate you. There is no need for so many gifts. Come, give a gift."
