Chapter 13 Keeping the New Year, Pilgrimage.
Chinese New Year's Eve dinner He Xi and his wife did not come, Zhao Dafeng originally wanted to pull Ge Hai to He Xi's side to eat, but helplessly Ge Hai thought about Cuiwei, so he insisted on leaving Zhao Dafeng here.
Tang Xiaoyi looked at these two living treasures, shook his head helplessly, and instructed his family to put the fireworks and firecrackers he prepared in the yard early, and then set them off when the time came.
Since entering the barracks to this year, this is the first time that Wei Zhang's family has female dependents to celebrate the New Year together, because they don't know what fun to arrange, so the spear trick team, juggling team and the female ancestors of storytelling and singing songs have been invited.
When the feast was served, the spear handed in the list and asked the lady if she wanted to listen to a book, or to a music, or to a play, so that the people could hurry up and dress up.
Yao Yanyu said with a smile: "Although I said that the New Year should be more lively, I still like to have an elegant meal." There is no need for those who sing, and those who have a stable song ask them to sing two to listen. β
The spear promised to go down, and after a while, a few servants each held the huqin and pipa bamboo boards, and first came to the front to ask for peace, and then to the side, the huqin sounded, the pipa played lightly, and the sweet voice of the servant sang a song "Man Tingfang".
The wind is old and the warbler is young, the rain is fattening the plum, and the noon shade is round. The earth is close to the mountains, and the clothes are moist and the furnace is smoking.
β¦β¦
This soft tune is okay with others, and Zhao Dafeng and Ge Hai are about to grow hair in their hearts when they hear it.
Tang Xiaoyi, who loves music very much, didn't like this tune very much, so he turned his head to look at Mrs. Yao quietly, but saw that Mrs. Yao was also impatient, so he smiled: "I'm about to fall asleep when I sing this song." Change it, right? β
"Like, we're still counting on having some fun to keep the New Year, it's like a lullaby...... Aha-" Zhao Dafeng said, yawning heavily.
In fact, none of these people have the habit of keeping the New Year. The purpose of keeping the year is to make their parents masters, but they don't have parents, and they don't know who to keep the year. However, these tough guys have been fighting for days and nights in a row, what kind of difficulty can't they endure? At this time, I was just trying to have some fun.
"Alright, tell them to stop. Reward! Yao Yanyu can't listen to it anymore, this ancient song is really like a lullaby, she was sleepy, and she really fell asleep if she listened to it again.
Mai Dong hurriedly took the reward money and went out, and the servants kowtowed through the curtain to thank the reward, and said some auspicious words before retreating.
Zhao Dafeng said: "Why don't we guess boxing?" β
"After a while, the general and his wife will enter the palace to congratulate, although it is the New Year, but the smell of alcohol is not good." Tang Xiaoyi said, turned his head to look at Yao Yanyu, and asked, "Why don't we play something else?" β
Yao Yanyu smiled: "If there is anything fun, just say it." β
Tang Xiaoyi said with a smile: "It's not fun, let's just play pitcher, this man, woman and child can play, and it doesn't count who bullied whom." The conditions should not be too harsh, the loser just promises the winner a request. β
"That's it, not counting who bullied whom?" Yao Yanyu's sleepiness suddenly dissipated without a trace. These people are all masters of riding and archery, what is pot throwing to them? You can win with your eyes closed!
"Why, madam, you don't know how to throw pots?" Tang Xiaoyi smiled innocently, in Yao Yanyu's opinion, he was so underdrawn.
"Yes." Yao Yanyu smiled and nodded, and then turned his face to look at General Wei, who was calm and calm.
"Isn't that the end of it? Come on, let's play pitcher. Tang Xiaoyi waved his hand and told the maids to prepare. I must win tonight, and I must take this opportunity to ask which girl I have obtained my daughter-in-law after the New Year.
Yao Yanyu raised her hand and knocked on the table, and said with a smile: "Just a few of you guys have calculated it, isn't it too bullying to win me alone?" β
"Nope." Tang Xiaoyi had long thought that his wife would not be so easily fooled, and explained with a smile: "You can be with the general." People don't all say that husband and wife share their own benefits! β
Yao Yanyu asked with a smile: "I'm in a group with the general." And then the three of you are in a group of your own? β
"yes." Tang Xiaoyi looked at Zhao Dafeng and Ge Hai, "Who made us all singles." There's no way around it. β
"It's not fair." Yao Yanyu sighed with a smile, "This is the New Year, you are still fighting for each other, I feel desolate when I look at it." β
Tang Xiaoyi sighed very regretfully: "This is also a helpless thing, we admit it." β
"Don't. Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, pay attention to saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new. It's better to be like this, there are a few little girls in my house who also like to play with pitchers, so let's have fun with a master and servant today. β
Ge Hai was immediately happy when he heard this, and he didn't want to open his mouth to respond: "Okay." That's a good idea, ma'am. β
Zhao Dafeng also smiled: "Listen to Madame." β
Tang Xiaoyi turned his head and glared at the two, but the two of them had their own goals and turned a blind eye to their brother's anger.
Yao Yanyu smiled and turned her head to look behind her, Cuiwei didn't come in to serve tonight, Yao Yanyu asked Cuiping to accompany her in her room, and the little girl was waiting for her at this time, so she instructed Xiangzhi: "You go and call Mama Feng." β
"Yes." Xiang Zhi went out, and came back with Mama Feng after a while.
Yao Yanyu directly assigned: "Xiangzhi, you are in a group with General Zhao." Umei, you're in a group with General Ge. General Tang, since you are a person who has already made a marriage, it is not good for me to assign the young maid to join you, lest this matter be spread tonight so that your daughter-in-law who has not passed through the door will know about it and make trouble with you again in the future, so you and my nurse are in a group with me, although my nurse is old, but her eyes are excellent, and now she still does needlework for me. Don't underestimate it! β
"Poof-" Zhao Dafeng just drank a mouthful of wine in his mouth.
"Ahem......" General Wei coughed to hide his strong smile.
"Uh......" Ge Hai was still regretting why Cuiwei didn't come out, but he didn't expect the nurse to be on it, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a while.
"Madameβdo you have to be like this?" Tang Xiaoyi leaned back on the chair helplessly, and the half-dead general of the Imperial Guard complained, "Boss, do you still care if your brother lives or dies?!" β
Wei Zhang couldn't help but laugh, and his face was serious: "Look at your little bit of talent!" Isn't it just a game? Can't afford to lose? β
"That's it, if you can't afford to lose, it's okay to say, you can go down and play a tune for us now, and we'll spare you." Ge Hai is now unprincipled in the camp of his wife, and he directly sticks a knife in his brother's ribs for his wife.
"Go and go!" Tang Xiaoyi couldn't bear it anymore, raised his leg and kicked Ge Hai away, "Who said that the master admitted defeat?" I don't know who loses. Come on, Bibi look! β
Zhao Dafeng laughed: "Than! Look at how Lao Tzu makes you lose convincingly! β
"Don't talk too much! First of all, what if you lose? Tang Xiaoyi pointed at Zhao Dafeng and asked.
Zhao Dafeng patted his chest: "If you lose, the master will sing you a song!" β
Tang Xiaoyi smiled and said, "Phew! If you lose, pour tea and water for your grandfather and wash your socks - a month! β
"No problem." Zhao Dafeng said, glanced at the Xiangzhi who teamed up with him, and thought that if he lost, let this little girl admit punishment.
"Here, here we go." Wei Zhang waved his hand and took the lead in getting up.
The outer room had already been cleaned up, a large vase of a beautiful woman with a hundred pictures painted side by side was placed on the carpet of rich flowers, and Banxia carried a quiver next to it, which contained dozens of bamboo arrows.
Pitching pot is the most common kind of entertainment in ancient times, and the gameplay is very simple, that is, the bamboo arrow is penetrated into the pot. Because it's simple, men, women and children alike it and can play it.
Yao Yanyu smiled and counted out ten bamboo arrows in his hand, and said: "Since it is a team, there are rules for teaming, two people in each group, ten bamboo arrows per person, and the total number of bamboo arrows thrown into it is counted, and the more wins, do you have any opinions?" β
"Nope." Ge Hai was the first to shake his head.
"No comment." Zhao Dafeng glanced at the incense and asked in a low voice, "You can play with this, right?" β
Xiang Xue smiled, leaned back and replied, "General Hui, the slave will know a little." β
"It's okay, no, I'm not afraid." Zhao Dafeng smiled, thinking that if you lose, you will go to serve tea and pour water to wash your socks.
The first round begins. Naturally, General Wei and Mrs. Yao came first.
Yao Yanyu asked Wei Zhang to come first, but Wei Zhang asked Tang Xiaoyi with a smile: "It's still the old rule, if you go in all at once, it will be doubled?" β
Tang Xiaoyi nodded: "Yes, if the general can throw ten bamboo arrows with one hand, the count will be doubled, and it will be counted as twenty." If it is thrown at twice the prescribed distance, it is counted as forty. β
"Okay." Wei Zhang raised his hand and took the ten bamboo arrows handed over by Yao Yanyu and took ten steps back.
Although the main hall on this side of Chunhui Hall was very spacious, Wei Zhang had already reached the door of the inner room after taking ten steps back.
Twenty paces away from a pitcher is really nothing to a general. But what if ten bamboo arrows go in together? Looking at the mouth of the big vase, it is almost the same as being able to hold ten bamboo arrows, and two or three more will not be able to enter.
Looking at this way, if there is a slight deviation, it is impossible to throw all ten of them. However, Yao Yanyu was not too worried, because she felt that people like Wei Zhang would not make a move if they were not twelve points sure.
Sure enough, General Wei shot out in a dashing manner, and the ten bamboo arrows entered the pot as a matter of course as if they had eyes, and there was no suspense at all.
"Good!" There was a cheer in the room, and the little maids were all in good spirits.
"The general is amazing!" Even Mama Feng has become a fan of the general.
After the general finished casting, it was Yao Yanyu's turn, and Mrs. Yao stood ten steps away with a bamboo arrow in her left hand, looking and looking, and aiming. The one in his right hand was too embarrassed to throw it.
God is fair, and when He opens a door to you, He will inevitably close a window. Mrs. Yao is an academic genius who is also an athletic idiot. She was blind in everything that had to do with her body movements.
"Madam, you should hurry up and vote!" Tang Xiaoyi can understand that his sister-in-law is nervous.
"That's right! What are you afraid of, Madame, there is a general to carry for you, even if you lose, you will be punished by the general. Zhao Dafeng continued to carry forward the rogue style.
Yao Yanyu turned his head to look at Wei Zhang, who smiled faintly and was noncommittal to Zhao Dafeng's words.
Well, what if you lose? Anyway, there is Tang Xiaoyi at the bottom. Yao Yanyu calculated that Mama Feng was old, and she would definitely not be able to compare to herself, so she stabilized her mind and raised her hand to throw the bamboo arrow in her hand into the vase.
There was a crisp sound of 'ding', and the bamboo arrow poked steadily into the belly of the vase.
"Oh? No way? "This is Ge Hai, no matter how gloating this guy is on his face, but what he says is more reliable.
"Tsk, Madame's quasi-head is not bad, at least with a vase." Tang Xiaoyi smiled, and the villain looked proud.
"That's right, Madame is still quite powerful." Zhao Dafeng nodded, his expression was sincere, his eyes were playful, and he was not a good product at first glance.
Yao Yanyu had already counted these guys who had fallen into the ground, so he turned his head to look at Wei Zhang. Wei Zhang smiled, looking very calm: "Go on." β
"Huh-" Yao Yanyu exhaled hard, listened to his man's words, and continued.
"Ding!" It's the belly of the vase again.
"Ding!" This time it's a vase neck.
"......" didn't even touch the vase this time.
The more she missed, the more anxious she became, and Mrs. Yao simply didn't aim at it, and directly threw it blindly one after another, and she couldn't aim accurately anyway, and if she didn't aim, she might be able to touch one.
"Ding Dong!"
Sure enough, at the time of the ninth, the bamboo arrow swirled around the mouth of the vase and fell in.
"Good!" Xiang Zhi hurriedly clapped his hands and praised, "Madame is so good!" β
Yao Yanyu's cool eyes swept over - you dead girl is applauding, right? Right? Right?!
Xiang Zhi was startled and quickly hid behind Zhao Dafeng.
Zhao Dafeng laughed, clapped his hands against his wife's cold eyes, and praised: "Madame is amazing!" I hit it after eight practices, and I think the first time I practiced this thing, I threw one in the morning. β
"Ahem!" Tang Xiaoyi looked at Mrs. Yao's slightly soothing eyes and asked, "How old were you when you first practiced this?" β
"Three...... Four-year-old? Zhao Dafeng recalled seriously.
Aren't all good people! Yao Yanyu glared at these bastards fiercely, and raised his hand to throw the last bamboo arrow in his hand.
With a 'ding' sound, the bamboo arrow hit the mouth of the vase and fell to the ground.
Then Mrs. Yao's glorious record was: an arrow.
However, this is not enough to challenge Mrs. Yao's mood, anyway, one is better than not. Besides, the performance of the men in her family is top-notch.
It's just that the next thing made Mrs. Yao's eyes widen little by little.
These men can be said to be incomparable. Wei Zhang's skills also exist in Tang Xiaoyi, Zhao Dafeng and Ge Hai, and these three players are no worse than General Wei.
And in the end, it was Mama Feng who subverted Mrs. Yao's self-confidence. Mama Feng is less than 50 years old this year, which is a good age in modern times. But in ancient times, when the average life expectancy, especially the life expectancy of most women, could not live more than fifty or sixty, Mama Feng was already considered an old man.
And because one is more laborious in housework, he has gray hair. In addition, she is a Jiangnan woman, her figure is already petite, and her waist is a little hunched in the past two years, and she has become shorter and shorter.
is such an old woman, who can have a hit rate of six when playing pitching pots. really made Mrs. Yao speechless.
"Good! Hahaha! Tang Xiaoyi looked at General Wei and his wife proudly, "The general lost!" What do you say is a good punishment? β
"It's not your turn to mention anything! It's not you who wins. Yao Yan snorted.
"Fourth, you say." Tang Xiaoyi pointed at Ge Hai and asked.
Just now, Ume shot nine bamboo arrows, so Ge Hai was the winner of this group. Moreover, Tang Xiaoyi had bitten Ge Hai's ear for a while just now, and he didn't think that Mama Feng could have any good results, so he found the alliance early.
However, Yao Yanyu can't throw pots, and her ability to observe words and emotions is okay, so before Ge Hai opened her mouth to make a request, she looked at Ge Hai and smiled very gently, and reminded: "After thinking about it, I will talk about it, this opportunity is only this time." β
Ge Hai was frightened by Mrs. Yao's gentle smile: "Ah, that's the case...... Last time, I happened to hear the general blow a Xun song, which was very good. Listen to the spear say that it is a piece composed by Madame? It's better for the general and his wife to work together to relieve our hunger. After speaking, Ge Hai looked at Mrs. Yao's rolled her eyes, and thought to himself that this request was not excessive, right?
Tang Xiaoyi quietly kicked Ge Hai in the back, this thing is really useless, Madame gave in immediately, what is this called! Or aren't you?!
Yao Yanyu looked back at Wei Zhang, who nodded with a light smile.
A maid took General Wei's black pottery xun, and Wei Zhang tried the sound, and then gently blew the song "Legend" that Yao Yanyu sang in the carriage that day.
Yao Yanyu was stunned for a moment, originally she thought it was the previous song "Sky City", but she didn't expect this song Weizhang to remember it after listening to it once. This man has a really good memory.
After listening to him blow through the first short paragraph, Yao Yanyu sang softly along with the tune:
β¦β¦
You are in the sky when you miss you, and you are in front of you when you miss you.
When I miss you, you are in my head, and when I miss you, you are in my heart.
I prefer to believe that we have a covenant in our past life, and the love story in this life will not change again.
I'd rather spend this life waiting for you to find out, I've always been by your side and never gone far
β¦β¦
This piece was played by Wei Zhang a few days ago, and it was a little intermittent and incomplete. Ge Hai happened to hear a little, Tang Xiaoyi and Zhao Dafeng both heard it for the first time.
Others are fine, they just think it sounds good. But Tang Xiaoyi was fascinated by it all of a sudden.
Xun's voice was clear and ethereal, and it was a little more penetrating because of Wei Zhang's deep internal force. Yao Yanyu's song is weaker in comparison, but this song is originally a light style, and Yao Yanyu's slightly unconfident voice makes the song a little more ethereal.
Such lyrics are straightforward that Tang Xiaoyi has never heard, but every word goes straight to the heart.
At the end of the song, Yao Yanyu said that she would continue to throw the pot, she still didn't believe that she was really so stupid, and she could still lose back?
Anyway, it's still early, and those Lingren troupes are boring, everyone is happy to play together, and they can also have the honor of listening to the general and Mrs. Xun sing, how beautiful.
In the second round, Yao Yanyu had a lot of thoughts, and quietly said to Wei Zhang: "Tell me later, what are the technical points." β
Wei Zhang chuckled: "You don't say I still want to ask you, it is said that you shouldn't be so stupid." Haven't you practiced qigong? Take out your strength to treat people, take the bamboo arrow as your silver needle, and the mouth of the vase as the acupuncture point on the patient's body, and use the qi to resist the needle, and use the qi to resist the arrow, how can you miss it? β
Yao Yanyu was suddenly enlightened.
Resist the needle with air, resist the arrow with air? The legendary martial arts master practices swords to a certain level, and everything can be swords, isn't that the truth!
When it comes to yourself, it's not too much to say that everything can be a needle, right? Anyway, who didn't say that all things in the world are interconnected!
Yao Yanyu's thoughts were tumbling in her heart, and she didn't realize how naΓ―ve and ridiculous these messy truths she thought about, anyway, she seemed to be opened up at this moment, and she couldn't say how happy she was.
Come on, and see how Mrs. Ben makes you lose this round!
Mrs. Yao held the bamboo arrow, held her breath and concentrated, silently reciting the needle and arrow with qi in her heart, thinking that she had aimed at the mouth of the vase, and decisively threw it.
"Ding!" The sound is particularly crisp, more than twice as loud as before. It can be seen that Mrs. Yao has increased her strength this time.
It's just that after the bamboo arrow struck on the neck of the vase, it landed listlessly on the carpet.
Yao Yanyu was deeply shocked, and her little face immediately collapsed.
"It's okay, try again, don't think too much, just do whatever you want." Wei Zhang handed her another bamboo arrow.
It's true? Mrs. Yao looked at her man with a blank eye, it would be a shame if she couldn't throw herself in again.
Wei Zhang gave her an encouraging look, only smiled slightly, and motioned for her to continue.
Yao Yanyu threw away the excitement she had before, with the mentality of breaking the jar, she raised her hand to aim, squinted her eyes against the mouth of the bottle, and gently threw the bamboo arrow in her hand.
"Ding Dong!" With a soft sound, the bamboo arrow was thrown in.
"Hah! It's in! Xiang Zhi clapped his hands happily again.
Yao Yanyu also felt very happy, so according to the feeling just now, she threw an arrow again.
"Ding Dong!" Cast it in again.
"Madame, so amazing!" Ume also cheered.
Yao Yanyu smiled, and then voted again. One after the other, and this time she actually threw eight into it.
After this round, it was General Wei and his wife who won. The loser happened to be Tang Xiaoyi and Mama Feng's group. I don't know if Mama Feng is secretly helping her master or if she is really old and dazzled, this time she only threw three arrows. Tang Xiaoyi screamed and said that Mama Feng released the water.
Yao Yanyu doesn't care about that, he must Tang Xiaoyi play a song "Autumn Thoughts on the Dressing Table".
A room full of people played lively for more than an hour, and when Mama Feng saw that the food was cold, she asked someone to remove it and replace it with a hot one.
Seeing that when it arrived, there was even more leakage, so Tang Xiaoyi said to set off firecrackers. The little maidens cheered and ran out with him. Shen Jiang Tianluo and they had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and they didn't need to be instructed by anyone, so they hurriedly set up the fireworks in the yard, pinching the incense and scrambling to light it.
The sound of ping-pong suddenly sounded, and brilliant fireworks burst into the night sky.
Yao Yanyu stood under the eaves of the porch wrapped in a cloak to watch the fireworks, and Wei Zhang leaned into her ear and asked, "Do you want to order it too?" β
"Huh?" Yao Yanyu looked back at him.
Wei Zhang looked at her stunned appearance by the light of the red lantern under the eaves of the porch, and repeated with a smile: "Do you want to light fireworks too?" β
Yao Yanyu shook her head and said with a smile: "Forget it, I'm clumsy, let's watch here honestly." "I don't know if this ancient technology for making fireworks can pass the test, after all, this thing is also gunpowder, in case one is accidentally bombarded, it will be too late to say anything.
"What's there to be afraid of? I'll take you. Wei Zhang looked at her obviously wanting to go but didn't dare, and laughed in a low voice, "It's just a ring, and it can't really be anything." β
"Who said that? If you don't do this, you'll die, right? Yao Yanyu immediately retorted, she cherishes life and never plays with fire.
"Killed?" Wei Zhang chuckled, "How is that possible?" β
"How could it be?" Yao Yanyu turned her head to look at him and asked funny, "Why don't you believe it?" β
Wei Zhang shook his head slightly: "I don't believe it." β
Yao Yanyu didn't see him as a joke, and couldn't help but be stunned and immediately understood. The Great Cloud Dynasty only has cold weapons, swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, and even improved bows and crossbows, but things like artillery, muskets, and ammunition really don't seem to be there.
Ancient people invented gunpowder in order to set off firecrackers during the Chinese New Year. Pathetic! Mrs. Yao sighed deeply.
"What's wrong?" General Wei couldn't see his wife sigh.
"You're going to have to make me think about it." Yao Yanyu shook his head lightly, this sentence cannot be said easily, the consequences of the invention and creation of a weapon must be the destruction of human beings.
"What's the matter?" Wei Zhang was a little confused, seeing her so serious was by no means a trivial matter. Can...... Isn't it just firecrackers? However, General Wei's thinking is also very sensitive, but he guessed a few points in an instant, so he took Yao Yanyu's hand and asked, "You say, firecrackers can kill people?" β
Yao Yanyu was silent. Wei Zhang looked at her expression, raised a finger, and said, "It's not a firecracker, it's the charcoal ash inside the firecracker?" β
"It's not just charcoal, right?" Yao Yanyu asked funny.
"Yes, there is still sulfur powder...... Wei Zhang frowned, and said slowly: "Sun Yaowang recorded the sulfur fire method in "Qianjin Fang", which uses sulfur, saltpeter, and soaphorn to fire according to a certain proportion. At first, it was used for alchemy, then it was used to drive away evil spirits, and then it was used for New Year's celebrations and festive things. β
Yao Yanyu felt that there was really no need to hide it, so she simply said: "But if those things are refined to a certain extent, or accumulated to a certain amount - well, in layman's terms, if a large firecracker with a height of one person falls into the crowd and explodes, what will be the consequences?" β
"It hurts, even kills." Wei Zhang's face also became solemn. He was a general, and fighting a war was a thing carved into his blood, and when he talked about hurting and dying, he immediately thought of war.
Yao Yanyu chuckled, "It seems that I don't need to say more. β
"How did you come up with that?" Wei Zhang held Yao Yanyu's hand, his palms slightly sweaty.
Yao Yanyu shook her head lightly and said, "It's nothing special, I'm just afraid of death." In fact, you can also think of it, but you are a military general, and you are used to being brave. β
Wei Zhang was silent, obviously still immersed in his own thoughts.
Yao Yanyu stretched out her hand and pulled him into the house, and persuaded: "Don't think about it yet, hurry up and take a rest, it's time to enter the palace." β
Tang Xiaoyi and the three of them went back after setting off all the fireworks in the yard, while Yao Yanyu was sleepy and went back to the bedroom to lie down for a while. But I can't sleep in bed, and I'm always thinking about throwing pots. Concentrate the breath in the body and condense it in the hand to throw the pot, and the quasi-head has indeed been greatly improved, is this the legendary internal strength?
And Wei Zhang leaned on the couch next to him, thinking about the relationship between firecrackers and hurting people and killing people, thinking about who to discuss with after the New Year, looking for craftsmen to make a few big firecrackers, and see what kind of power it is? Can it be delivered remotely? What can it be?
The two of them rested for more than an hour, and Cuiwei and Cuiping came in with hot water towels to serve and wash.
This time it is a brand-new routine court dress, with a crown, pearls, and black silk shoes with a thousand layers.
Mrs. Yao can enter the palace with the edicts as the wife of the auxiliary general, but she still chooses to wear her own medical official robe and enter the palace on behalf of the national medical hall to congratulate the emperor for the New Year. In her words, the Chinese Medical Pavilion is not prosperous, and she and Zhang Laoyuan are two people above the fifth grade, if she still enters the palace as a lady, who can afford to look down on the Chinese Medical Pavilion in the future?
The heavenly street outside the palace is illuminated by palace lights as if it were daylight. Today, this street is also several times more lively than in the past.
The princes and princes and the ministers of the court and the five grades above the court will enter the palace today to pay New Year's greetings to the emperor, the first two years of the queen mother's filial piety, the emperor just accepted the hundred officials after the congratulations and then called everyone to disperse, this year's queen mother's filial piety has passed, the frontier is stable, the country and the people are safe, there has been news released a year ago, this year the emperor will leave a hundred officials in the palace to receive a banquet, the monarch and the ministers are happy.
Wei Zhang, as a military general, is naturally riding a horse, Yao Yanyu is not showing off as a medical officer, and An An sat in a sedan chair. But whether you are riding a horse or sitting in a sedan chair, you have to come down to Tianjie and walk into the palace. So General Wei, who arrived first, stood on the street early and waited.
General Wei was not the earliest, nor the latest, he went there to stop, and it didn't take long for the officials who came after him to pass by, everyone greeted each other, and opened their mouths to say that the New Year was not lively.
When Yao Yanyu caught up, Wei Zhang was standing with Xiao Lin talking. So she stepped forward with a smile and asked with a smile, "Why are you two chatting here?" β
Xiao Lin turned his head and saw Yao Yanyu in an official robe, and arched his hand with a smile: "Lord Yao, Happy New Year." I wish you good luck and prosperity. β
Yao Yanyu smiled and returned the salute: "Happy New Year to Marquis Xiao, and I wish you all the best, and the auspicious stars shine brightly." β
"Haha, thank you so much!" Xiao Lin looked at Wei Zhang again and asked, "Are you all together?" Let's go, shall we? β
Wei Zhang nodded, and the three of them turned around and were just about to leave, when they heard someone behind them laughing and shouting: "Marquis Xiao, General Wei, the New Year is auspicious!" Yo, Master Yao is also here, Happy New Year, good luck! β
When Yao Yanyu turned around, Wei Zhang and Xiao Lin had already returned the salute to the visitor: "Happy New Year, Lord Lu." β
"Lord Lu." Yao Yanyu didn't know who the person was, but when he heard Wei Zhang call him Lord Lu, he also followed the title and smiled: "The auspicious star shines brightly, everything goes well." β
