The Frightening Five Surnames and Seven Wangs
"Mother, Uncle, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm still young."
Cui Yan 'er's face was flushed red. Then, she quickly covered her face and said shyly.
Seeing Cui Yan 'er covering her face, Cen Wen and his sister smiled and didn't say anything else.
Boling's Cui Clan!
Such a large family clan also attached great importance to the marriage of their descendants!
For Cui Yan 'er and the others, free love was something that they did not even have to think about!
There was a phrase that could be used to describe the Great Tang's elite clans: the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs!
In other words, it referred to the most famous aristocratic families of the Tang Dynasty!
They were the Li Clan of Longxi, the Li Clan of Zhao County, the Cui Clan of Boling, the Cui Clan of Qinghe, the Lu Clan of Fanyang, the Zheng Clan of Xingyang, and the Wang Clan of Taiyuan!
When Li Yuan had proclaimed himself emperor, he had said that he was a descendant of the Li family of Longxi, but the authentic Li family of Longxi had completely ignored him.
After that, Li Shiming tried to contact the Zhao County Li Family several times, but the Zhao County Li Family ignored him!
Li Shi Min's Li family was the royal family, but they were still not welcomed!
It was enough to know how terrifying the forces of the five surnames and seven Wangs were!
In the Great Tang, although Li Shimin was the supreme ruler of the Great Tang and enjoyed supreme authority, it would be a grave mistake to say that everything was decided by him.
In fact, in the hundreds of years from the Wei and Jin Dynasties to the end of the Tang Dynasty, the top aristocratic families such as the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs had played a very crucial role in the national economy and the people's livelihood!
Almost all of the large political powers were controlled and influenced by the great clans to varying degrees!
After all, the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs were all prestigious families that had been officials for generations. They often had hundreds of years of history.
There were many talented people in the family. Whether they were in the court or in the opposition, they all had extremely high reputation and social status.
Even when there was a change of dynasty, the status of these great clans generally wouldn't change much.
The Cui family of Boling was the leader of the Five Surnames and Seven Watches, so they were even more extraordinary.
Li Shiming had once told Old Master Cui that he wanted the prince to marry Cui Yan 'er, but Old Master Cui had rejected him without hesitation!
In Old Master Cui's eyes, Li Shimin's family was just a nouveau riche who had become the emperor by luck!
He wanted the prince to marry Cui Yan 'er? Old Master Cui couldn't bear to!
Old Master Cui was more willing to let Cui Yan 'er choose a Langjun with both virtue and ability among the five surnames and seven Wangs!
It wasn't just Li Shimin who wanted to marry into the Five Families and Seven Wangs. Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Li Ji, and the others were also proud of their children marrying into the Five Families and Seven Wangs!
Even during the reign of Emperor Wenzong of the Tang Dynasty, the status of the aristocratic families was still deeply rooted.
Tang Wenzong could not help but sigh.
Civil marriage, regardless of official rank, but the emperor's inspection, my family has been the emperor for two hundred years, but not as good as Cui, Lu!
This meant that although the Li royal family had ruled the world for more than 200 years, there were more people who wanted to marry with the Cui family and the Lu family than the royal family!
This was the reason why Cen Wen Wen and his sister laughed it off. They had only canceled Cui Yan 'er's name.
As for Cui Yan 'er and Li Canglang forming karma?
Hehe, don't be ridiculous. It's simply impossible!
……
Li Canglang asked Mei Niang to cook while he took out the tiger meat he had stored.
He prepared to cook a few simple dishes!
Just as Li Canglang was getting ready to show off his skills in the kitchen, the mischievous Cui Yan 'er barged in.
"Little sister, you're so sensible. You know how to cook at such a young age.”
Cui Yan 'er smiled at Li Canglang as she looked at Mei Niang who was washing the rice outside.
Li Canglang ignored her and continued,
"I said I would help her, but the little girl refused!”
Li Canglang could only smile and ask,"If she really asks you to cook, do you know how to cook?"?”
Cui Yan 'er was the heir of the Cui family of Boling. Li Canglang did not believe that a lady from a noble family like her could cook.
"Eh! I can learn!"
Whoosh!
The sound of stir-frying rang out.
The first thing Li Canglang had to do was stir-fry the okra tiger meat!
"What's this cooking tool of yours?"
Cui Yan 'er looked at the wok in Li Canglang's hand and fell into deep thought!
Although Cui Yan 'er was not close to fireworks, she would often go to the kitchen to play with the cook, so she knew what the cooking utensils in the kitchen looked like!
"Iron pot!" Li Canglang smiled.
"Iron pot? Iron pot? My family uses iron cauldrons or iron pots!”
Cui Yan 'er was extremely shocked, and her eyes were filled with astonishment!
[P.S. Boling's Cui family. Boling is probably the current Anping County, Shen County, Raoyang, Anguo, and other places in Hebei Province!]
Qinghe Cui Family, Qinghe was the current Qinghe County of Hebei Province!
Fanyang Lu family. Fanyang was the area between Baoding City and Beijing City!
The Zheng family of Xingyang, which was now Henan Province! Ying-xing, read as the second sound!
