Chapter 767: A Guest from Afar
Quietly, the first snow of winter falls in the middle of the night, and the mist and white snow in the morning make the children smile, and the adults are busy getting winter clothes for the children who are anxious to go out to play.
In the Sifang Pavilion, Anu and the maids helped Ah Yao put on winter clothes, Ah Yao was young and beautiful, and she looked really like a girl in the clothes worn by the big red and big swallow children, Anu looked at it and wanted to laugh, and the maids hurriedly reminded her that she had annoyed Ah Yao the day before, and it was not good to make him cry again today.
Anu nodded, "What about Arui?" ”
The maids shook their heads, Ah Rui was the only one among them who had a brother by his side, Ah Rui's brother Dashu martial arts were not good, it was Anu who helped him say good things to the patriarch, and the patriarch reluctantly included him in the guard, but I didn't expect that this time when something happened, Ah Rui, who had his brother as a companion, became the object of their envy.
If the extermination is true, then these people will have no relatives except each other!
Ah Yao put on fragrant and soft thick clothes, changed into thick-soled boots, and happily walked around the house, the child couldn't be closed, and his sister wanted to go out.
In the shelter under the corridor, Ah Rui tightened his collar and asked, "Brother, what you said is true?" ”
"Well, I think you'd better dismiss that idea!" It took a lot of effort for Dashu to hear the news about the Du family from the kitchens and servants of the Sifang Pavilion.
"I asked you to inquire about Second Young Master Du, what are you going to inquire about Third Young Master?" Ah Rui is angry. The young grandmother who saved Anu is the wife of the second young master Du, and her brother didn't go to inquire about him, but to inquire about the third young master, it was a waste of time.
Big Tree said hurriedly. "No! The second young master of Nadu has married a wife and had children, and his wife is the granddaughter of his aunt and grandmother. How could he be allowed to take a concubine, the eldest young master of their family was in office. The third young master hasn't married a wife yet! "Da Shu originally thought that one of the three brothers of the Du family is not in Beijing, and the other has a wife and children, and this wife is not a small backer.
He did not marry a wife, nor was he engaged, although his mother was there, but he was recuperating in Zhuangzi. Dashu felt that since he wanted to enter the door as a concubine, he naturally had to pick a good one, the second young master heard that his temper was not very good, and he already had a young wife, how could he be good at the third young master Du?
It's easy to handle, so that the pillow wind blows, let him help go to Du Xiang to talk, and ask him to help them Fengyi and Yangyi seek justice!
Ah Rui followed the Anu sisters and brothers into the Du Mansion, but she had seen Du Yunxun. That glance hooked her soul away, and when she came back, she never forgot it, of course. What she never forgot was the wealth of Du Mansion.
It's just that this kind of girl's heart, no matter how arrogant she is, she can't tell her brother. Therefore, the two brothers and sisters have different opinions on the selection of candidates.
"I think. If you want to enter the door and be a concubine, it's better for Third Young Master Du. He painstakingly explained the benefits to his sister. Ah Rui said: "Brother, what do you know! That Second Young Master Du is the one who spoke in front of the emperor! How can the third young master compare. ”
"How do you know?" ”
"Said by the waiter here." Ah Rui's face was slightly red, and she asked her eldest brother to inquire again.
The two of them said very reasonably, as if Ah Rui wanted to enter the Du Mansion as a concubine, it was a very easy thing, after all, in the clan, Ah Rui was a lot of sons and daughters who asked to marry, and there were many soldiers from the Southwest Guard who wanted to accept her as a concubine, but because she was one of Anu's maids, her marriage had to be nodded by Anu, otherwise those relatives of their family were afraid that they would not be dazzled early.
Therefore, they did not consider that Du Fu would refuse to allow Ah Rui to enter the door as a concubine.
In addition, Xiong Da and they are also talking about this matter, these days, they have carefully inquired, giving people to be concubines, it is not as simple as they imagined, the lords and young masters of rich and noble families want to take concubines, first of all, they have to ask their wives to agree, otherwise even if the man accepts it, the hostess does not nod, this concubine is not a concubine, if the maid in the family is accepted, the hostess does not agree, then they are still maids.
As for the outside, there is no matchmaker, it is called the outer room, and the children born may not be recognized, who knows if this outer room is unruly outside, whether there are eyebrows and eyes with other men, and how can it be guaranteed that the child born is really this man's?
Several guards also asked about the concubines of Master Mo Qi's family, and the people who were asked laughed when they heard it, "Uncle, are you talking about Uncle Nanjing's unscrupulous brothers?" Hey, they went to war, not for them to take concubines, and the concubines brought back like this will not see the light! Look, this exposure will not make their family defeated! ”
"This concubine is through trading, you haven't seen it, the men of the Mo family have been exiled, the female relatives have returned to their hometown, the family property has been confiscated, what should I do if I have no money to go on the road? Hey, at this time, they sold all their subordinates and concubines, and the money in exchange for them was used as their travel expenses. ”
The concubines of the Mo family were sold, they had all heard about it, and they couldn't help but sink their faces when they heard the guard relay this.
"You can't let Anu be a concubine, it's okay to be a wife." If it's just a wife, who would want to marry a woman who has been wiped out? And Anu's current identity is not the granddaughter of the patriarch of the Fengyi clan, but the nurse of the patriarch's grandson.
When they had a headache, the patriarch of the Yangyi clan and the people of Fengyi and Xuanyi also came to the capital, and when they saw the prosperous and connected capital, a few men who had never seen so many people couldn't help but be dazzled.
The patriarch of the Yangyi clan, who was about twenty years old, sat in the car and said to the patriarch of the Fengyi clan who was lying beside him, "Grandpa, it's here." ”
Feng Dachuan, the patriarch of the Fengyi clan, opened his eyes, "Thank you for your hard work, Ah Gang." ”
"It should." The patriarch of the Yangyi clan named Ah Gang smiled bitterly, and he called Grandpa Feng Dachuan, because his mother was the daughter of the patriarch of the Fengyi clan, and he was the grandson of Feng Dachuan, and he pursed his mouth to help Feng Dachuan pull the quilt.
The Yangyi clan is strong, and it is not surprising that the patriarch of the Fengyi clan married his daughter, but his daughter and son-in-law were killed by his son-in-law's good brother Mi Zhi as early as fifteen years ago, robbed him of the position of patriarch, and treated the son left by his daughter as a slave.
Feng Dachuan has always wanted to help his grandson regain the position of patriarch, but his son-in-law's good brother is very skillful, relying on his sister to be a concubine and cooperating with senior officials and generals of Dayan. Overwhelmed the other tribes.
Jiuyi seems to be headed by Yangyi, and he is almost the emperor of the soil in the southwest.
Feng Dachuan hit by mistake that day. discovered this incident, so he was cut down by Mi Zhi, the patriarch of the Yangyi clan. Fortunately, Ah Gang found out in time and saved him.
Although Yangyi under the rule of Mi Zhi is very strong, only those who obey him and have the ability can get benefits from him, and others are tools to make money for him in his eyes, and after the silversmith with good craftsmanship was sent to the capital by him, he was locked up in the workshop by Master Mo Qi, and he worked day and night to make zuò silverware, in their eyes. These people are like insignificant ants, beaten and scolded at the slightest carelessness, and no one cares if they even lose their lives.
As time passed, their family members had doubts, and they couldn't get answers from the patriarch Mi Zhi, and they couldn't help but think of how free and easy they were when the old patriarch ruled! Ah Gang quietly gathered a group of people like this, and when he saw his grandfather being cut down that day, he couldn't bear it anymore. With those subordinates, while Mi Zhi and his party were celebrating their achievements, they were caught off guard.
After that, he led people to Fengyi and Xuanyi respectively. Because there are traitors who cooperate with Yangyi, Dayan's soldiers have people to lead the way, as if they are in a no-man's land. Although he fled to the forbidden land in time, not many people survived. And they are all wounded.
When Feng Dachuan learned about it, he ignored his injuries. asked him to bring himself and Fengyi and Xuanyi's people into Beijing, for fear that if he was one step late, the emperor of Dayan would send troops to fight Yangyi.
"I never thought that I would see you take over the position of patriarch."
Ah Gang smiled bitterly, how could he have thought about it himself? It's just that he rushed into Beijing this time and threw down Yangyi, who had just taken over, when he went back, would someone snatch the position of the patriarch again?
"The one surnamed Ji died in the Xuanyi Forbidden Land, will Emperor Dayan ...... angry?"
Feng Dachuan laughed in a low voice, "That person deserves it, how many years have he been in our Jiuyi, and he will let others deceive him and go to the forbidden land, he deserves to die in the forbidden land." ”
Ah Gang didn't go to Xuanyi, he sent his henchmen, but Xuanyi was betrayed by his own people, so in the face of the people of the Yangyi clan, he refused to explain honestly, how did Ji Xixing, the commander of the Southwest Guard, die, they didn't explain the details, only said that he died in their forbidden land.
The same is true of Fengyi, although Ah Gang is the grandson of the patriarch, but he has not moved for many years, no one dares to believe it, Feng Yi's loss is not as big as Xuanyi, Feng Dachuan's sons only said that because they had discovered that someone had a different heart, they took precautions in advance, but the details were not explained in detail to Ah Gang, and Ah Gang was not good to ask.
When the car arrived at Suzaku Avenue in the capital, two other convoys wearing foreign costumes entered Suzaku Avenue from the streets on both sides one after the other, and Feng Dachuan's youngest son Fengchang blew into the car like a gust of wind, "Daddy, are you okay?" ”
"Your old man is not dead, so it's good." After saying that, I couldn't help coughing.
Ah Gang hurriedly helped the old man up, Feng Chang brought water over, they were not used to drinking Dayan's tea, they were used to drinking medicinal tea made in their own clan, but Feng Dachuan was seriously injured and was taking medicine, so the medicinal tea could not be used.
"What's going on?"
"I heard them say that the Northern Qi Dynasty and the Eastern Jingguo Kingdom both sent people, and the Northern Qi people were thin and strong, and I saw that their flags were embroidered with big wolf heads." He paused, and then said, "The people of Dongjing are stout, and their beards and hair are long, which looks scary. ”
*
“…… Listening to them, the life of Dongjing is like a bear, no wonder their totem is a bear. Du Yunxun said as he sketched the banner of the Eastern Yasukuni he saw today with a simple number of strokes in the album. The people of the Northern Qi Dynasty worship wolves, their king is called the wolf lord, and the two important ministers he relies on the most are the left-wing wolf king and the right-wing wolf king, and their totems are the wolf totems with the wolf head facing right and the left respectively. ”
"Oh, what about the wolf lord?"
"It should be facing the middle, right?" Du Yunxun was knocked down, he had never seen the banner representing the wolf lord.
Fan Anyang didn't continue to mess with him, but only asked, "Have they all lived in the Sifang Pavilion?" Can the Sifang Pavilion accommodate so many people? ”
Du Yunxun sneered, "You are underestimating the Sifang Pavilion, there are several mansions around the Sifang Pavilion, all of which belong to the Sifang Pavilion, and they are idle on weekdays, just waiting for this time to come in handy." ”
Seeing that his expression was wrong, Fan Anyang thought for a moment and asked, "Master didn't just fall in love with the mansion under the name of the Sifang Pavilion, right?" ”
"Uh-huh!" Du Yunxun snorted angrily, "Master, that old treacherous and cunning one, asked me to go and tell the emperor to tell the emperor that the mansion was allocated to the auction building, which was from the Sifang Pavilion, which was specially used to entertain foreign guests, how could it be allocated to the auction building." ”
The corners of Fan Anyang's mouth twitched slightly, and he comforted her husband a little, "Isn't there a quchi in Beijing?" There are not a few royal gardens near Quchi, if you pick the gardens there, the emperor may not be approved. ”
While speaking, the maid outside came to report that the patriarch of the Fengyi clan had handed over a prayer post, wanting to meet the second young master and his wife.
"Didn't you say that the Fengyi Clan Patriarch is dead?" How could they come to the capital and hand them a letter of worship to their husband and wife.
Du Yunxun smiled when he heard this, "The head of the human family is dead, and a new patriarch can't be elected, maybe it's a new patriarch!" ”
The maid who sent the post shook her head, "It's this patriarch, and I haven't changed it to a new one." (To be continued......)
