Chapter 252: Chinese New Year

In the nineteenth year of Jingde, Guo Wenying finally spent her eighteenth birthday in Fujian and moved towards the age of nineteen.

The birthday banquet was very simple, only a table of wine was set up in the line, and Lu Qifang, Xu Heng, Xu Hai, Deng Jiucheng and Zhang Xinfang were invited. Lu Qi also came, he came uninvited, in the past two years, he has sincerely admired Guo Wenying, from the original disdain has been transformed into admiration, and now in the entire military camp, he is the one who listens to Guo Wenying the most. and Jiang Mao, who also came from the yamen early in the morning and brought a lot of special products for Guo Wenying that he brought back from Shu.

A few days ago, he went to Shu to visit his relatives, and he came back for a month, and he didn't see him for a long time. No, as soon as I learned that Mr. Guo had a birthday, I came to congratulate him on his birthday.

Xu Mao personally arranged a banquet, and originally wanted to invite a small opera troupe to sing, but Guo Wenying refused. She doesn't like to listen to dramas, and she's about to go to war, what are you doing with all this excitement?

During the banquet, Lu Qifang took the lead in toasting Guo Wenying and asked her to do her best to win this big battle.

Guo Wenying raised his head and drank it all, and said heroically: "All brothers are close to Wenying, and we don't say dark words in front of Mingren. But even so, I will do my best, Jiang Taiping will not get rid of it, the southeast will not be at peace, and I ask the brothers to work together to help Wen Ying exterminate the Nanling Army, and also avenge our soldiers who were killed by Jiang Taiping in Luoziling. ”

Several people stood up in unison and said, "It should be like this, exterminate Jiang Taiping and pacify the southeast." ”

This little feast didn't last long before it was gone, the big war was imminent, there were so many things to prepare, and the pleasures could only be put later.

After everyone left, Lu Qifang said to Guo Wenying: "Wenying, you are nineteen, can you plan for your future?"

Guo Wenying shook her head, "Let's talk about it in the future, I can't be an official for the rest of my life." But I also thought that if this battle was lost, I would bury my body in the southeast, and if I won, I would disarm my armor and return to the field, and go home. ”

Lu Qifang sighed, such a good seedling, standing in the court in the future, is definitely a person who can influence the court situation, and he should be able to do a lot of practical things for the people. It's a pity that a woman was born. When the war is over and the new emperor ascends the throne, he can only go home and get married.

It's just that the master looks at her like an eyeball, and he wants to swallow it in his stomach, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to let her go. In the future, even if she unloads her armor and returns to the field, she will not return to peace.

Poor one, why was he taken a fancy to that master?

In fact, I don't blame Feng Jingting, who called this girl really good, she looks good and attractive, if he is twenty years younger, maybe he will follow after him.

What else can there be in Feng Jingting at that time?

Stroked his beard and looked at Guo Wenying's smile, Guo Wenying was looked at inexplicably, and I don't know what this old man was thinking?

In the blink of an eye, the New Year has gradually become more and more in the new barracks.

On the third day of the first lunar month, Guo Wenying held a banquet in the middle of the line, invited the generals of the new military camp, and then sent invitations to the officials of the three southeastern provinces above the fourth grade. Except for Nanling Gongjiang Taiping, who was not invited, the rest of the officials were invited. Among them, there are also people waiting for Qin Shumin and the old lady of the Fang family in Yong'an, Yingzhou, Fang Yuntang's father Fang Taidou.

These two people are the most famous people in the three southeastern provinces, Qin Shumin is Qin Yuefang's distant cousin, but the relationship between Yong'an Hou and the Guo family is closer, Qin Shumin is the righteous son of the old Dingguo Gong, and his title is inherited from his righteous brother Guo Zhao, speaking of which, the Guo family is as kind to him as a mountain.

Although Qin Yuefang is related to him, but in the final analysis, he is not a serious relative, Qin Shumin is an orphan, he has no father and mother since he was a child, and later inherited the title, the Qin family in Yingzhou came to the door and took the family tree to kiss him, and since then he has barely had a relationship with the Qin family.

Qin Shumin is over 70 years old this year, speaking of Guo Wenying's grandparents, whether he can invite someone, in fact, Guo Wenying really has no bottom in his heart. However, she has a token of her grandfather Guo Zhao back then, which was worn by her grandfather when she was one year old. She asked someone to pick it up and sent it to Yingzhou with the letter.

Grandfather Guo Zhao was very kind to Qin Shumin back then, not only saved his life, but also withstood the pressure of the boss, gave him the title of Marquis of Yong'an, which originally belonged to him, and inherited the title of Marquis of Yongding. At that time, because the title was not given to the Guo family, but a foreign surname was allowed to inherit, and the Guo family also made a big fuss because of the ruthlessness, many Guo clansmen had very opinions about their grandfather, and they did not have any contact with the Guo family in Xifu until the death of their grandfather.

Perhaps because of these favors, Qin Shumin can look at the token and enjoy his face.

All the invitations sent out were drafted by Lu Qifang and Guo Wenying, and they thought about who to invite and who not to invite, and the reason why Qin Shumin was invited was also because he had a great reputation in the southeast, and once there was chaos in the southeast, only people like him could stabilize the situation.

There is also the same for Fang Dadou, the old lady of the Fang family, the Fang family is a famous family, a family within a family, although the number of officials in the court is not so many after the Southern Qi Dynasty, and the scenery is not as good as before, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and it is also a person who stomps and shakes three times in the southeast, and can smack the wood three points when he says a word.

In fact, Guo Wenying didn't want to invite Fang Dadou, she had a marriage contract with Fang Yuntang, and a few days ago she had some unhappiness with Fang Yuntang because she wanted to withdraw from the marriage, and she really didn't want to see her future father-in-law at this time.

If she sees it, in what capacity will she see it? The imperial court is a messenger, or a future daughter-in-law? What do you think about and how do you have a headache?

It's really not okay to invite Fang Dadou, the situation in the southeast has to rely on him and the old marquis, otherwise, with her qualifications, I am afraid that she will not be able to suppress the officials of the three southeastern provinces and some green forest forces.

I had no choice but to post a post head-on, and by the way, I wrote to Fang Yuntang, explaining what I wanted to invite the Fang family, and apologized to him for what happened that day. Of course, she still insists on not fulfilling the marriage contract, but it is not easy to emphasize it too much because of the current demand.

At this juncture, it is a headache for all the well-known figures in the southeast to receive an invitation from the Qin Mission, which involves the question of which team to stand on, so many officials are weighing left and right, and they have not replied for a long time.

Especially at the same time, Nanling Gongjiang Taiping's invitation also arrived, and the worst thing was that it was on the same day as Guo Wenying's invitation, but he went to Fuzhou Jiangfu for a banquet.

Guo Wenying was not very surprised when she got the news, she had the intention of tempting when she posted to invite people, who would come or not, and what excuse she would find not to come, she knew it in her heart. Presumably Jiang Taiping also meant this, so she gave the same invitation to the three southeastern provinces after her. It's just an attempt to take the opportunity to knock and warn those people not to think about going wrong and standing on the wrong side.
