The Wang family mansion!
Wang Gui sat in the main seat, his eyes cold as he looked at his second son, Wang Jingzhi, who was kneeling in front of him. He said angrily,"Bastard, who told you to do this?”
"Father, I can't take it anymore. How can a mere Wu daughter be worthy of being the Crown Princess?”
Wang Jingzhi said to Wang Gui with an unconvinced expression.
"Foolish!"
Wang Gui cursed. After thinking about how Wang Jingzhi was his son and how he was standing up for the family, he waved his hand and said,"Get up first. Don't care about this matter anymore. In the future, think carefully before you do anything. Don't be so impulsive.”
"Yes, Father."
Wang Jing nodded, his face full of disapproval. He did not take Wang Gui's words to heart at all. He could beat a mere disciple of the Wu Clan whenever he wanted to. Who dared to say anything wrong about him?
Seeing Wang Jingzhi leave, Wang Gui looked in the direction of the Imperial Palace and whispered to himself,"Your Majesty, you have indeed gone overboard this time. Have you forgotten the help our Wang family gave you when you started your business?”
Before Li Tang was established, because he was in Taiyuan with the Wang family, he liked to marry them to increase his reputation. It was also because of this that when Li Yuan raised his army, the Wang family of Taiyuan bet on him.
After Li Yuan ascended the throne, he still maintained a good relationship with the Wang family of Taiyuan. He married his only sister, Li Shimin's only aunt, the Eldest Princess, to Wang Yu.
Wang Gui had privately told Li Shimin that he wanted to marry the daughter of the Wang family to the Crown Prince as his concubine, but Li Shimin had rejected it on the grounds that the Crown Prince was young. This matter had made Wang Gui unhappy for a long time.
" Eldest Brother, I don't think Jingzhi did anything wrong. A mere Wu family dares to dream of becoming the Crown Princess. If they know what's good for them, they should go to His Majesty to break off the engagement. Otherwise, there will be no place for the Wu family in Chang 'an.”
Wang Renbiao said. His father was the Prince Consort Wang Yu, his mother was the Eldest Princess, and he was one of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs. His status was noble and he was not afraid of anything.
"The Wu Clan is nothing. It's just that if this matter ends like this, it will eventually embarrass Your Majesty.”
Wang Gui hesitated and frowned.
Wang Ren sneered and said,""His Majesty should have thought of this when he drafted the decree. I have already contacted the Li Clan of Longxi and the Li Clan of Zhao County. They are on our side in this matter.”
"Oh, I see. Looks like we're going to make a name for ourselves this time.”
Wang Gui and Wang Renbiao looked at each other and smiled. What happened in front of them might once again raise the prestige of the Wang family in Taiyuan. Who in the world could embarrass the emperor?
"Old Master, the Crown Prince is leading a troop of soldiers and is rushing over to our side.”
A servant came up to Wang Gui and said respectfully.
"Crown Prince?"
Wang Gui turned to Wang Renbiao and smiled."It seems that His Majesty has already made a compromise. This time, we have the upper hand. In a while, I'll go to the palace and give His Majesty a way out.”
"Yes, that should be the case."
Wang Renbiao nodded and said with a smile.
Both of them were sly old foxes, when they saw Ye Feng, they instantly understood Li Shi Min's intentions.
"The Crown Prince has 100,000 cavalrymen outside the city," Wang Gui said after some thought."We have to be careful in this matter to avoid any mistakes."”
"Hehe, a mere Crown Prince is nothing to be afraid of. I think he is just bluffing. As long as he is not stupid, he knows the consequences of going against the Wang family of Taiyuan.”
Wang Renbiao smiled. If Li Shiming had come personally, he might have been a little afraid. However, a mere Crown Prince could not give him too much pressure. The noble background of the five surnames and seven Wangs was his greatest confidence.
.......
Outside the Wang family mansion!
"Phew!"
Ye Feng pulled on the reins of his warhorse, he looked coldly at the manor in front of him and shouted: ""Surround this place. No one is allowed to enter or leave. Those who disobey will be killed without mercy.”
"Yes, Your Highness."
The Breaking Ranks Battalion replied and sent out a group of people to surround the entire mansion. Their faces were filled with killing intent.
"Greetings, Your Highness. May I know why Your Highness has invited me here?”
The servant in front of the door walked forward and said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
There was a saying that said that Wang Gui was not only the Prime Minister but also a member of the Wang family in Taiyuan. Thus, even the servants in front of the door thought highly of themselves, they were not afraid of the scene in front of them, because they knew that Ye Feng would not dare to do anything to them.
"Get lost!"
Ye Feng said coldly with a dark expression.
"Your Highness, this is the Wang family's residence.”
The servant did not avoid him. Instead, he reminded him.
"Dian Wei."
Ye Feng's eyes flashed with killing intent as he shouted softly.
"Die!"
Dian Wei walked forward with a cold expression. He waved the long saber in his hand and looked down.
"Pfft…"
Under the terrified gaze of the servants, the long saber chopped off his head, and blood splattered on the ground.
"Hiss…What is the Crown Prince trying to do!"
When the surrounding onlookers saw the scene in front of them, they sucked in a breath of cold air at the same time. They could not hide the shock on their faces, and their hearts were in turmoil.
One had to know that this was the Wang family of Taiyuan, one of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs. The Crown Prince actually dared to make a move here.
