Li Zexuan walked out of the west courtyard and met Little Xi. When the little maid saw him coming out, she quickly went up to greet him.
"Young Master, Young Master Wang and the others are waiting for you in the front hall." Little Xi bowed.
It turned out that Wang Zhong saw that the white-clothed young master outside the residence was elegant and had a noble aura. He didn't seem like an ordinary person, so he brought the two of them to the front hall to serve tea and wait.
Li Zexuan nodded and walked towards the front hall.
.....
Front hall.
"Young Master, that Li Zexuan is so rude. That little Baron actually dares to make Young Master wait for so long. Wait for Yao 'er to take that guy's head and vent your anger for Young Master."
Seeing that 15 minutes had passed and Li Zexuan still hadn't arrived, Yu Yao couldn't help but feel angry. She felt that Li Zexuan was purposely putting on airs to humiliate her Young Master. After saying that, she was about to leave with her sword.
Actually, this couldn't be blamed on Li Zexuan. Who asked him to be teaching his disciple? Of course he had to take some time to explain before leaving.
"Wait!"
The white-clothed young master put down the teacup heavily. There was a trace of anger in his voice.
Yu Yao's body trembled and stopped in place.
"Heh, this Baron wants to see who has the guts to assassinate a Baron personally conferred by His Majesty in broad daylight."
Li Zexuan's hearing was very good. When he was about seven to eight feet away from the front hall, he heard a woman speaking arrogantly. He couldn't help but shout angrily and quickly walked in.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense. Yu Yao was still feeling sad because of her Young Master's scolding. Now that she saw the person in front of her, she started to feel angry. She felt that it was all because of this person that she was in this situation.
If it wasn't for the fact that she was afraid of angering her Young Master, she would have drawn her sword.
As soon as Li Zexuan entered the door, he saw a beautiful woman with snow-white skin, a slender figure, and an exuberant heroic spirit. She was glaring at him angrily.
If Li Zexuan hadn't reacted quickly, he would have bumped into her.
When he first saw this woman, he was indeed stunned by her beauty, but he wasn't the kind of person who couldn't move when he saw a beautiful woman. This woman had spoken rudely behind his back, and now that she was caught red-handed, she didn't feel the slightest bit ashamed. Instead, she glared at him angrily. His first impression of this woman was a trace of disgust towards her character.
So what if you're pretty? This young master will not spoil you.
Moreover, in terms of beauty, Han Yuxi was definitely not inferior to this woman in front of him. More importantly, Han Yuxi's gentle and graceful personality was very likable. If he had to choose, Li Zexuan would choose Han Yuxi without hesitation.
"Were you the one who said you wanted to kill me?" Li Zexuan looked at the woman and spoke coldly.
Since the other party didn't give him a good face, why should he stick his warm face to the other party's cold butt? No matter how beautiful you are, you can't be so rude and casually kill people, right?
The white-clothed Young Master quickly stood up and pulled Yu Yao away. He smiled at Li Zexuan and cupped his hands.
"The maid in my house is rude. This one will strictly discipline her when I return. Lord Li is a weak noble, so you must be magnanimous and won't bicker with an insignificant woman. "
Only then did Li Zexuan notice the man in the room. He was dressed in white and had black hair. He was elegant and unrestrained, and he had a scholarly air about him. He gave off a gentle and refined feeling.
Li Zexuan said indifferently with his hands behind his back, "A good man doesn't fight with a woman. This Baron naturally won't lower himself to the level of a little woman. May I ask who you are?"
He deliberately emphasized the words' little girl '. Hearing this, Yu Yao's jade-like face froze. She snorted coldly and glared at Li Zexuan with killing intent.
The white-clothed Young Master also heard the displeasure in Li Zexuan's tone. He felt helpless. Before he came, he had prepared many words to persuade Li Zexuan to cooperate with him. But now, it seemed that all his plans had been disrupted by Yu Yao. He could only take one step at a time.
"This one is Wang Renbiao from Taiyuan Qi County. Greetings, Lord Jue. My maid has offended you just now. Please forgive her. "
The white-clothed Young Master could only lower his posture and ease the stiff atmosphere.
"The Wang family of Taiyuan?"
Li Zexuan raised his eyebrows. He paused his steps and asked in surprise.
The white-clothed Young Master cupped his hands and smiled. "Yes."
Li Zexuan was shocked. The Wang family of Taiyuan was a rich and powerful family. They were one of the five surnames and seven hopes.
Although he did not study liberal arts, he had heard of the name of the five surnames and seven hopes.
During the Han and Sui Dynasties, it was a society based on the status system. The aristocratic families enjoyed high prestige and status in society. Among all the noble aristocratic families, there were five most noble surnames. They were the Li family of Longxi, the Li family of Zhao County, the Cui family of Boling, the Cui family of Qinghe, the Lu family of Fanyang, the Zheng family of Xingyang, and the Wang family of Taiyuan.
Among them, the Li family and the Cui family each had two surnames. Therefore, they were called the five surnames and seven hopes.
These seven great clans all had deep foundations and produced many talented people. Moreover, the marriages between the great clans were intertwined. Often, a slight move in one part would affect the whole situation. Even Li Er, as the ruler of a country, was somewhat afraid of the other great clans.
At that time, the people thought that marrying a girl of the five surnames was an honor. The Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty, Xue Yuanchao, once said that one of his three regrets was that he could not marry a girl of the seven families. This showed the prestige of the seven families.
The Wang family of Taiyuan was from Zhaoxing County and Wangchu County. It was the first family to become a first-class aristocratic family. Between the two Han Dynasties, Wang Yun at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty turned the tide of the country and the country and pushed this family to become a famous family in the world.
In the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Wang family of Taiyuan was listed as a first-class aristocratic family by virtue of the contributions of their ancestors and their noble status. It prospered for 200 years. From then on, the reputation of "The Wang family of the world comes from Taiyuan" became popular.
In the Tang Dynasty, the Wang family of Taiyuan also produced many talents, nurturing a group of top poets such as Wang Bo, Wang Zhihuan, Wang Changling, and Wang Wei, forming a feast of poetry that was too much for the eyes to take in.
Li Zexuan suppressed the shock in his heart and walked to the seat of honor. He said to Wang Renbiao, "Renbiao, please sit."
Li Zexuan's voice was not as cold as before. On the one hand, the person in front of him was from a wealthy family and was modest and polite, not arrogant and domineering. This made Li Zexuan feel slightly better. On the other hand, his family had risen too quickly and its foundation was not stable. There was really no need to go against a giant like the Wang family of Taiyuan for such a small matter.
Although he was a time traveler, knew a lot of black technology, and was very good at martial arts, he still had to think about his family. He could not kill the whole family because of a disagreement and make the world his enemy, right?
Wang Renbiao could hear that Li Zexuan's tone had softened. He felt relieved and said politely, "Thank you, Lord Jue!"
Although he was the eldest son of the first branch of the Wang family, he did not have the arrogance of the young masters of the other five families. He had always pursued the idea of putting down the arrogance of an aristocratic family, making allies and cooperating for a win-win situation. Therefore, he humbled himself in front of Li Zexuan.
Li Zexuan nodded slightly and shouted to the outside, "Come, serve tea!"
A maidservant immediately walked in with a teapot in her hand. She poured a cup for the two of them and then retreated.
"Please have tea."
"Thank you!"
Wang Renbiao picked up the teacup, took a sip out of politeness, and put it down. Li Zexuan, of course, did not drink a sip. He was not interested in the tea made by the Tang Dynasty. It was better not to try this strange taste.
Li Zexuan saw Wang Renbiao put down the teacup, so he asked, "May I know why Renbiao is here today?"
Since the rhythm was disrupted by Yu Yao, Wang Renbiao did not keep him in suspense. He said directly, "Lord Jue, I'm here this time to cooperate with you in a business. Please think about it carefully."
