"Every citizen is responsible for the rise and fall of the country … Two days later, Lantian County's Longmen Inn will host a charity event to raise funds for the country …"
In the Qizhou Provincial Governor's Residence, Wang Renbiao read the latest edition of the Datang Daily and frowned. After a while, he put down the newspaper and muttered to himself, "This charity event must be Little Xuan's doing!"
"Why are you so sure that the Marquis of Yong 'an is behind this? But according to the reports, Marquis should be training the soldiers in the Black Armored Troops right now? "
Hearing this, Leng Yuyao frowned and asked doubtfully.
Although Wang Renbiao's voice was soft, it did not escape her ears. After all, she was a martial arts expert close to the Grandmaster realm!
"Keke! Although Little Xuan is in the army, he can send someone else to do this! Look at this, the Yan Huang Chamber of Commerce, a charity event. Who else but Little Xuan could come up with such an idea? "
Wang Renbiao smiled and pointed at the article in the newspaper. After analyzing it with Leng Yuyao, he stood up with his hands behind his back.
"Although I don't know how much money the imperial court is lacking, the fact that His Majesty allowed Little Xuan to gather the merchants to raise funds for the army shows that the imperial court is somewhat stretched in the war with the Turks. Only by borrowing the strength of the citizens can we raise enough funds for the army! I'm afraid the situation is not optimistic! "
Every citizen was responsible for the rise and fall of the country. Moreover, Wang Renbiao was not a commoner, but the eldest son of the Wang Family of Taiyuan and the Qizhou Provincial Governor. Knowing that the imperial court was in trouble, he would naturally be worried!
"Then … Does Young Master mean that our Wang Family should participate in this charity event?"
After a moment of silence, Leng Yuyao asked softly.
"Our Wang Family … keke! Can I still represent the Wang Family? "
Wang Renbiao suddenly smiled bitterly, a trace of coldness and desolation on his lips.
Although he didn't know why Princess Tong 'an and Wang Yu had suddenly agreed to his marriage with Li Jingchu, Wang Renbiao knew that his marriage with Li Jingchu would definitely anger the elders of the Wang clan. This meant that the resources of the Wang clan would no longer be given to him, and his status as the eldest son of the Wang clan would only exist in name. The elders of the Wang clan would nominate another descendant of the Wang clan to become the future patriarch of the Wang clan!
The news of Wang Renbiao's upcoming marriage had been released for so long, but none of the elders of the Wang family were willing to come to Qizhou for the banquet. This meant that Wang Renbiao was about to be "cold-shouldered" and marginalized by the family!
"Young Master, since the Patriarch and the Eldest Princess have agreed to the marriage between you and Miss Li, I presume the Patriarch won't say anything else, right?"
Leng Yuyao had been by Wang Renbiao's side for more than ten years. How could she not tell what Wang Renbiao was thinking at this moment?
Although she said so, she also knew that this situation was very unlikely. With the nature of the top aristocratic families like the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes, Wang Renbiao was very likely to be abandoned by the Wang Family!
How could Wang Renbiao not understand this? He shook his head and said, "Hehe! Actually, I don't care about the identity of the Wang Family's eldest son! Yao 'er, you should understand me. This identity is more of a restriction than a benefit to me! Rather than being restricted by the family, I'm more willing to be an ordinary person, do what I like, and love the person I like!
Sometimes I'm quite envious of Xiao Xuan. He was able to have the status and wealth he has today all because of his own hard work, so he can do as he pleases and not be restricted by his family. Although I was born with everything, those things don't belong to me. They come from the family and the family can take them back at any time! This is not what I want! "
Hearing this, Leng Yuyao couldn't help but be silent. She lost her parents when she was young and was adopted by the Wang Family. She was trained to be a secret guard. Regarding the internal situation of the Wang Family, she knew it like the back of her hand. Naturally, she knew that what Wang Renbiao said was the truth.
"Young Master, we won't be going to the fundraiser two days later …"
After a moment of silence, Leng Yuyao asked.
"No! We have to go! Of course we have to go! "
Unexpectedly, Wang Renbiao shook his head and said firmly, "Since this matter was initiated by Xiao Xuan, it's only right for us to help. Although I may not be able to use the Wang Family's resources in the future, I should be able to transfer a lot of money from the shops in my hands. Send a message to the shopkeeper of the Craftsman Pavilion and ask him to attend the fundraiser in my place two days later and donate 30,000 strings of cash!"
Wang Renbiao had previously invested in the Yan Huang Chamber of Commerce and could be considered one of the earliest members of the Yan Huang Chamber of Commerce. The shops under him had received preferential treatment from the Yan Huang Chamber of Commerce in terms of resources and had earned quite a bit of money in the past year!
"30,000 strings of cash! Young Master wants to donate so much? "
Leng Yuyao wasn't surprised that Wang Renbiao wanted to help Li Zexuan. She was surprised that Wang Renbiao wanted to donate so much money at once! 30,000 strings of cash might be a drop in the ocean to the Wang Family, but to Wang Renbiao, who was about to be abandoned by the Wang Family, this 30,000 strings of cash could very well affect his livelihood for the rest of his life!
"Xiao Xuan is my brother. Now that the court is in trouble and His Majesty has given Xiao Xuan an order, although I don't know how much military funds will be collected for Xiao Xuan to complete his mission, as his brother, I should do my best to help him! Moreover, Xiao Xuan was the one who brought me and Jingchu together. If not for him, Jingchu and I would have become Jiao Zhongqing and Liu Lanzhi, right? A mere 30,000 strings of cash isn't enough to repay Xiao Xuan's kindness to me! "
Wang Renbiao's gaze was deep as he spoke faintly.
Of course, he knew that he might be abandoned by the Wang Family. Moreover, after being abandoned by the Wang Family, money would become a very important thing to him. But so what? Was he supposed to stand by and watch when his brother was in trouble? That was impossible!
"Yes! Young Master! Yuyao will send a message to the shopkeeper of the Craftsman Pavilion and ask him to attend the fundraiser in two days! "
Leng Yuyao bowed.
"Mm! Go, Yao 'er! "
Wang Renbiao nodded and the study instantly quieted down.
