Xingyang.

There are also names such as Dongguo, Chenggao, Sishui, Xingze, Wutai, Heyin, Guangwu, etc. in history.

The territory under its jurisdiction is east of Hulao Pass in Sishui, north of Songshan, and south of the Yellow River.

In this vast area, the land is fertile, the resources are abundant, the people are outstanding, and the mountains and rivers are beautiful. There are both dangerous passes such as Xingyang Pass and Hulao Pass, as well as famous mountains and rivers such as Guangwu Mountain and Honggou. It has a long history and splendid culture.

It has always been a place where military strategists must compete for.

There is a Honggu in the east to connect the Huai River and Si Shui River, the north to connect the Yellow River, the south to Suo River and Songshan, and the west to Hulao Pass and Luoyang and Chang'an. The terrain is dangerous and the transportation is convenient.

Especially after the Emperor Daye built the eastern capital Luoyang, Xingyang became the eastern gate of the eastern capital.

Chenggao, the capital of Xingyang, is Hulao.

Prefect's Mansion.

The prefect of Xingyang, Li Yuan, was drinking tea. A handsome man stood beside him, with a face as if he was as handsome as a jade, but his scholar was energetic and sturdy. He was wearing a bright light armor on his body, a sword on his waist, and a horse spear in his hand.

Standing there, he looks outstanding and handsome.

This young man in his early twenties was Jiancheng, Li Yuan's eldest son, and he had just performed the ceremony of becoming an adult.

Li Yuan put down the teacup and said to his eldest son, "We are hunting again? Are you with the Zheng family? Although you marry the Zheng family, don't play with them all day long."

Li Jiancheng just smiled.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Dad, I'm not just making fun with them. My father asked me to marry the little lady of the Zheng family. I know very well. The name of Zheng in Xingyang is helpful to our Li family. Especially when my father is an official in Xingyang, he needs to rely on the power of these local snakes."

"Dalang, you have a lot of contact with the Zheng family. What do you think of the Zheng family in Xingyang?" Li Yuan asked.

Li Jiancheng smiled but said nothing. He stood beside his father. Although he had just become a child, he had a sense of momentum. This was not the kind of power that the playboy relied on his father's generation, but the momentum that he had developed after being the eldest son of the Duke of Tang's mansion after so many years of hard work.

Many people say that the five surnames and seven families are famous all over the world. The Zheng family in Xingyang is the leader of the five surnames and the leader of Guandong. They say that they are married all over the world, how to master academics and how to have great reputation in Guandong.

These ordinary people naturally talk about it. But as the core of the Guanlong nobles in Daxing City, the eldest son of the Duke of Tang's mansion did not take these seriously.

No matter what, the five surnames and seven families in Guandong are actually not as good as the wealthy families in Guanlong. For the Guanlong nobles who are in charge of the world, although they also need to win over the Guandong gentry, they just need to use their old reputation to add icing on the cake.

The Guanlong nobles built three dynasties, the Western Wei, Northern Zhou and Sui. They immediately conquered the world. Who else could scare them with these false names?

If the five surnames and seven families are really so awesome, they will not just live in the countryside, but will be in charge of the temple.

Li Yuan picked up a letter and shook his head.

He sighed, "The Zheng family is the one who cares most about and is happy with this marriage, not us. Don't look at the so-called five surnames and seven families, who say they are nice and look down on our Guanlong nobles and say that we are nouveau riche, hahaha, even if their five surnames and seven families have hundreds of years of hope, then they are all of the same ordinary origins? The so-called unwillingness to marry Guanlong is actually just a high-profile call and to raise your own value. Look, now, if you really have the opportunity to marry us, they are actually eager, just like your marriage with Mrs. Zheng, it was actually the Zheng family who came to ask for it on their own initiative."

"Your aunt married the eldest son of the Wang family in Taiyuan, and they were also determined to marry him."

"The five surnames and seven families are now generally married to family concubines. Do you think they can't do anything."

The so-called marriage sale is a common phenomenon among the Kanto gentry today. Since the Northern Qi Dynasty was destroyed, the Kanto gentry has been under suppression. In order to maintain the family status, they began to marry everywhere, and even married those subordinates or concubines to officials of ordinary origins, or even some wealthy businessmen, and the other party paid a huge sum of money.

The so-called family wealth means that the family is the highest family and marrying a daughter to a family lower than their own family, asking them to make up for their money. In fact, it is a disguised selling of daughters, which is called selling marriage for the world.

Although the children of the direct descendants will not sell their marriages, since they have all sold them, it is just the last piece of fig leaf left.

The marriage between the Li family and the Zheng family is just a matter of icing on the cake. The eight pillars of the Li family, the Duke of Tang, the royal family, and the top family members of the Guanlong nobles will not change much. However, for the Zheng family, being able to marry the Li family is a huge improvement and guarantee for their family status.

If it weren't for his Li Yuan coming to Xingyang as the prefect, he wouldn't have considered his son's marriage with the Zheng family.

"In those days, the east and west, the eastern Wei, the northern Zhou and northern Qi, and many Guandong gentry were cut and killed by our Guanlong people. However, now the Emperor of Daye has succeeded to the throne, the Yang family is afraid of supporting the Guanlong nobles who established the three dynasties, so they are secretly suppressing us and vigorously supporting the Jiangnan gentry and the Guandong gentry that were back then."

"It's been so many years since the world's unification. Those old guys from the gentry, old and old, died, seem to really not remember how our Guanlong nobles rose up, nor do they remember that we captured the world by riding and shooting, and forgot how cruel we were when we slashed them back then."

"Now these people really think they have married us and even sent a few women into the palace to become concubines, so they think they have regained their glory a hundred years ago."

The Guanlong nobles were mainly composed of the military leaders of Wuchuan Town, and the powerful gentry in Guanlong at that time was united, which led to the prosperity of several subsequent dynasties. But decades ago, these people were severely despised and looked down upon by the Guandong gentry.

So to this day, these gentry still think that they are superior and always regard the Guanlong nobles as nouveau riche, but in fact, they despise them as nouveau riche, but at the same time they want to get status.

It's so cheap.

If the Zheng family is willing to lick him, Li Yuan, he will naturally be happy. But if someone wants to use their Li family and use them as a gun, it will be too high for themselves.

"Dalang, I will be back to Beijing in a few days."

"Do you go back to Beijing to celebrate the throne?"

"No, the emperor ordered me to return to Beijing to serve as the post of Weiweiqing."

Wei Weiqing, the chief official of Wei Wei Temple, the chief officer of Wei Wei Temple, one of the five supervisors and three platforms of the Nine Temples of the Great Sui Dynasty, was a third-rank official. He was responsible for the supply of ceremonial curtains, arsenal storage and other affairs, and was in charge of the world's arsenal equipment.

Although his power is not heavy, he is a Beijing official and is still a regular official. He can often serve the emperor and submit a memorial.

"Shimin's eyes are not yet healed. The treatment effect of the monks in Dahai Temple is pretty good. Can't you take him back now?"

Li Yuan said, "I will go back to Beijing, stay, stay and take care of Shimin. When his eyes are well, you will take him back to Beijing."
