Chapter 27
Chapter 27
Many people don't understand why such a wedding was held in such a hurry before the flood, but yesterday on Fenghuang Avenue, people who blocked the street and complained made a lot of publicity, exaggerating Shen's role in this matter.
All the officials went home to prepare gifts as soon as they went to court. The wedding at the Gongyuan at night was not an easy thing, it might be some kind of signal.
Many people were even guessing the signal behind this, but they were torn apart by Shen's network of relationships.
Marriage bestowed by the emperor, a gifted scholar recommended by Prince Qi and Mr. Tongge.The house was all given by Prince Qi, and the ones who accompanied him to welcome the bride were the left and right ministers and the young master of the Imperial Forest Army, which confused the officials of the imperial capital.
Baili Songran and Yun Mo, one with high eyesight and low power, one who is hot outside and cold inside, and Qian Xiaoran who is not too rich in the city, judging from the way they went to greet their relatives with Shen Luo, that kind of joy does not seem to be feigned at all. However, Shen Luo's wedding has become complicated and confusing under the operation of such a master as Emperor Qianyuan, and it has become the center that stirs up the powerful and powerful in the imperial capital. For a while, the rumor that Shen Luo is going to be the number one scholar can be said to be very popular.
And all of this had nothing to do with Shen Luo, he was just speculating on the reason why Emperor Qianyuan rushed to bestow the marriage.
Regardless of Prince Qi's future, it seems that Emperor Qianyuan is not going to let himself owe Prince Qi a favor that he cannot afford.
If he stands on the opposite side because of the battle for the throne in the future, he, an official who has even eradicated the matchmaker, will definitely be a big stain, even no less than Guowei's initial appointment of King Luo to Jinyang.
What's more, he is still a poor boy with no real power, I can't imagine it.
Of course, the weirdest thing is who the crown prince is. Shen Luo always has a feeling that Emperor Qianyuan is like his 'brother-in-law' Yu Wentuo in this matter.
Who is this candidate, except for the emperor, I am afraid no one knows.
"I still don't know much about the affairs of the imperial capital." Sitting on the horse, Shen Luo couldn't help feeling emotional as he watched the team walk into the palace gate.
He is the bridegroom today, and he is allowed to go to the palace to ride a horse to greet his relatives.
On Fenghuang Street, the gates of the palace were wide open, and the procession of welcoming the relatives came out one after another surrounded by guards of honor.The most eye-catching thing is not only Yuqian's companion, Shen Luo, but also the three young men who greeted the relatives. They are celebrities in the imperial capital. Now that they come out with high heads, they immediately attracted the eyes of many buddies.
The welcoming team is mighty, and the 180 dowry, which symbolizes the royal dowry, is sent out, mighty and mighty.
The most surprising thing is that after the wedding procession, the golden phoenix-patterned imperial flag came out in a row, guarded by a mighty Imperial Forest Army, and the phoenix chariot was only driven by Emperor Qianyuan himself.
The people onlookers were envious, and knelt down to pay homage.
The long red carpet in front of the tribute courtyard is embroidered with conspicuous patterns of flowers blooming side by side.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Shen Luo turned to the main entrance together with all the officials and students, and greeted the supreme ruler of the Dafeng Dynasty.
Today, there are [-] tables in the Gongyuan Square, and the dignitaries and celebrities in the imperial capital all regard it as an honor to be able to come.
I don't know if all the gift money from Long Qingchen goes to the disaster victims. Today, many big merchants have received invitations from the inner government. The name is very simple "Imperial Companion - Lord Yingtian County" wedding ceremony.
The merchants who received it couldn't help being a little happy, and they all prepared heavy gifts to go to the banquet.
Except for Emperor Luanjia, the entire main street in front of the Gongyuan was full of traffic and bustling.
The Gongyuan has a square dedicated to lectures, which adopts the semicircle design of the echo wall, with a high top and a wide bottom, on which the main table is set up.
"Floods in the Beijiang River are coming, and the people are suffering. The emperor's accompanist, Shen Luo, exposed the meritorious service of Wuxuan, the governor of the same city, and bought time for the court to respond to the disaster in a timely manner. What's even more rare is that he took the lead in donating food. He was loyal to the emperor and patriotic. He is a great role model. The emperor granted permission to hold a big wedding for him in the Tribute Courtyard today, so as to bless the day with joy, and also to inspire the spirit of the people to fight against disasters." After Guowei finished speaking, the students of the Tribute Academy got up together: "Learn from Shen Tongnian."
Shen Luo bowed to everyone: "Everyone in the same year, it is a blessing in life for everyone to be able to study a subject. Many of you came from poor families, but they were able to raise 8000 taels for Shen's wedding, including 20 taels for himself. Shen is grateful, and then In the face of a national catastrophe, money is very important. Shen Mou will return the money, and I would like to ask you a heartfelt request."
The Gongsheng students present were curious, and someone looked at him: "Shen Tongnian, you just donated our money for us, so how about treating us as all Gongsheng students?"
Shen Luo smiled lightly, and bowed again: "Many people's salary in January of the same year was 18 taels. Although they succeeded in one fell swoop and were bestowed by many teachers, how can we do anything big with only our money?" What? So, Shen Luo has a suggestion."
"A Luo, tell me, we all support you." Baili looked at him and smiled, and the address became more friendly.
"I would like to borrow the square in front of the palace tomorrow. More than 900 of our tribute students will spend their pens together, each with a pair of calligraphy and painting. I would like to ask the merchants from the imperial capital who came today to show their respect. If they can buy the calligraphy and painting, all the proceeds will be donated. That is to contribute to the court. And you use me to decorate the appearance of the masters, what do you think?"
When many merchants heard this, they shouted without waiting for the tribute students to answer: "Good idea, we all have the talent of you masters."
"Okay!" Emperor Qianyuan smiled: "That's a good idea, I will go tomorrow too, my lord, you can make arrangements."
Guowei responded: "Yes!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you all for the same year, thank you all distinguished guests. Our scholars and businessmen are united, and our profits cut through gold." Shen Luosan bowed and said.
"Scholars and merchants are of one mind, and their profit cuts through gold." The people present shouted together, and they immediately had a good impression of this imperial companion. His actions, not to mention how many elements he did, made them suspect that he was cooperating with the emperor to play a show, but But it makes everyone have a stage.
When the imperial court was in disaster, they would also persuade them to donate, but the persuasion was not as good as voluntary. This kind of famous and profitable thing made many merchants feel satisfied.
The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, and the banquet was grandly opened.
Today's main course is only one, which is called "eight directions concentric", which is chicken, duck, fish and five kinds of meat, pig, cow, sheep, dog and donkey.The eight kinds of ingredients arranged are placed on the edge of a plate, and in the middle of the huge plate is a beautifully arranged map of mountain and river ingredients.
The other ingredients are four kinds, a "Gongyuan Mantou" eaten by a student, a glutinous rice dumpling, a fish soup, and a vegetable platter.
This is really simple as a wedding banquet, but the royal wine is brought out, and the guests have a good time. It's not that merchants have to meet so many tribute students. In the future, these people will be the parents of one party. Everyone wants to make friends. The best social arena.
Fortunately, the emperor was here today, and the third young master risked his life to take care of him and hold back the wine for him. Longtu was pitiful. As soon as he was introduced, everyone came to drink with him one after another. The Gongyuan rested.
Shen Luo returned to Shen's mansion unharmed at night, and Xiao Shitou and Qi Junwen went to the palace as guests.
Because of what happened last night, Prince Qi loves the house and Wu, and loves the little stone very much, but now Qi Junwen is getting better in front of Emperor Qianyuan.
When Shen Luo returned to the mansion, he was very tired today, but he felt a little happy when he thought of Qingchen.
Seeing the smile on his face, Qingchen was a little curious, and fetched water to wash with him.
The two sat and watched, the dragon and phoenix candles burning suddenly.
He has long seen the intimacy between "that self" and Zihuan. To be honest, what if there is no such thing?Will he like Qingchen?
Shen Luo looked at the people around him, Qing Chen looked at him curiously: "A Bai, did you drink too much?"
Shen Luo shook his head and smiled: "I'm just very happy."
Qingchen sighed: "I have liked you since the first time I saw you in Gaofu Temple."
Shen Luo turned to look at him, and smiled slightly: "Then we fell in love at first sight?"
"I am, what about you?" Qingchen leaned on his shoulder.
"I've been in love for a long time!" Shen Luo said as he put his arms around his shoulders.
"When?"
"Since you are going to Jiangzhou with me." Shen Luo said: "I am used to having you by my side now, I hope the years will be quiet and I can be with you and me forever."
"En!" Qingchen nodded and lay down with him.
He saw this incident a few times in his dream, and he was very pure-hearted in being able to endure it.
It's the first time for both of them.
In the early morning, Shen Luo looked at Qingchen in his arms and smiled on his lips. After two lives, he finally met his beloved.
Waking up early in the morning, Shen Luo wrote a memorial tablet in the room, which read "the tablet of the ancestors of the Shen family".
This includes his father in this life, and of course his parents in the previous life. Shen Luo visited with a light dust gift.
"Father, I'm already married, don't worry, I will live up to my talents and live out my own life." Shen Luo said.
Qingchen said respectfully: "Father, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Abai and spread the branches and leaves for the Shen family."
Shen Luo looked at him and smiled slightly, his eyes were full of tenderness.
Long Tu woke up early in the morning and went to the canteen of the Gong Yuan to eat. Many students still knew him and saluted him: "Master Long."
Long Tu and the others were flattered: "Masters, you are so polite, so polite."
Being able to meet so many people in the Gongyuan, Longtu would benefit immensely if they went to their hometown to become parents' officials in the future. Changxiong also felt deeply about this.
After running out, they rushed to Shen's house.
Shen Luo's house is too small, it is inappropriate to say that Shen's residence is appropriate, so it is appropriate to call it Shen's residence.
"My son-in-law, how do we arrange the business of doing salt and tea shreds?" Longtu asked as soon as he came, the good thing is done, he is a businessman and he only wants to make a profit.
Shen Luo looked at him, even Changxiong's eyes were full of anticipation, he must have wanted to ask about his future.
"Go back to Huzhou immediately and tell the county magistrate about Beijiang. The more food you organize, the better. I know that my uncle wants an official position. Tell the county magistrate that he can deliver the food within seven days. His future and uncle's future are fine." After finishing speaking, Shen Luo looked at Longtu: "Father, now you can rely on Qingchen's title and my influence to become half of the imperial merchant. If uncle can As a county magistrate, you can monopolize one side's business wherever he is, which means there is a mountain above and a blue sky below."
When Chang heard that Shen Luo helped her natal brother, she was overjoyed, and immediately pulled Long Tu: "My lord, my son-in-law is right, only in this way can our business be taken care of!"
Long Tu nodded, what Shen Luo said was exactly what he wanted.
"It will take at least seven days for the imperial court to go all out to carry out the disaster relief. You will become the first county in the south of the Yangtze River to provide disaster relief. At that time, I will go to the emperor to ask for merit for us in Huzhou. Dad, you are also famous."
"Okay, okay, my son-in-law is right. We'll set off now and the boat will be waiting at the pier!" Longtu said, just as he was about to leave, he turned his head and said, "Let's come back later, and I'll bring you some tea for you to send." Man, Master Asong, don't worry, I will give him 2000 taels of pension when I go back, and I will take good care of him."
Shen Luo loved to hear these words, and bowed seriously: "Thank you, dad."
Longtu and him left after being thankful.
Everything was ready, Shen Luo took his usual [-] sets of calligraphy and paintings from home to the square in front of the palace.
Qingchen smiled and watched him go out.
Sitting in the car, Shen Luo heaved a sigh of relief, he is not some holy father.The difference between myself and "that self" is simply too far. He can accumulate strength and become the governor of the Liaodong Protectorate, and he is almost domineering to counter all parties.
In the eyes of "that self", everyone is an opponent, the emperor Yu Wentuo, the Khitan people, and the Jurchens, but he has the courage to take the initiative to play with everyone.He leads all his opponents along and wins the possibility of life for all the relatives and friends around him.
And what about myself?If he doesn't deal with Longtu well, it will be no problem just relying on Prince Qi's words of "Let him find me", but that means that his handle will always fall into other people's hands. From Qingchen, he knows that Longtu is a greedy person. Even if the emperor tolerates this, it is one of the biggest failures in his life, and he can be grabbed by someone with a heart at any time, and he can be pushed into the fire pit forever.
And let Changxiong and Longtu raise food, which pushed Huzhou county magistrate out, let him accept his kindness, and gave Changxiong a chance to become county magistrate, so Longtu would definitely not go into deep water with himself in the imperial capital, Instead, he used his own fame to make money with Changxiong in the local area.
Of course, he would not say that Changxiong is a good official, but one thing, he does not believe that the magistrates and sheriffs of the Dafeng Dynasty are all good. To be able to be peaceful, just like Emperor Qianyuan and Yu Wentuo, what they want is one thing, which is 'relative tranquility'.
He can figure this out, which is actually more relaxed than "that self".
"My own" family, country, and world are all in my heart, so I will be deeply involved in it.
I always think that if I don't fight back, if I don't take the top position, I will lose everything and cut everything.
The truth is, how many families in this world have their entire family killed for no reason?
After thinking about this, I got the beautiful woman I admired last night, and I couldn't help but feel better.
In the square in front of the palace, a seat for 500 people is arranged. In the middle is a high platform, like a stage. At the back are the students of the Gongyuan and the desks arranged in a word. On the desks are pens, inks, papers and inkstones.
The emperor sits high behind, above the gate tower of the palace.
When the sinking arrived, Fenghuang Avenue was already full of water, and the guarding imperial guards specially arranged a passage, so he could go in directly, but he walked away like this for a quarter of an hour.
As soon as Shen Luo raised his head, Baili Songran and the others waved to him from above.
