After the seven brides boarded the car, the convoy continued north. His Majesty decreed that the Linxiang Marquis was allowed to welcome the convoy around the north and south palaces to show his honor. The little yellow doors on duty stepped forward one after another to ask for rewards. From time to time, the two bookkeepers threw strings of money. There are no more than thirty or fifty pieces in a string. Nothing more, nothing less. The key is to ask for a lottery and get a touch of joy. The little yellow doors stepped forward one after another to scramble, so it was not lively.

Passing by Yuntai, I saw that the person standing on the platform seemed to be the Empress Dowager Dou. Liu Bei waved his hand from afar. I thought I couldn't see it, but I didn't expect the Empress Dowager Dou to wave her hand.

Liu Bei passed by happily.

When crossing the street connecting the north and south shrines. For a while, the petals rained down on the top of the head. When I looked up, I saw His Majesty, the Empress, and the Empress Dowager Dong's honor guard.

Liu Bei hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and knelt down along the street with everyone.

"Get up." His Majesty smiled condescendingly: "Today is the day of great joy for the Marquis of Linxiang. I also came to touch the joy of the unicorn. ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is afraid." Liu Bei said goodbye.

"You don't have to be formal." It was the Empress Dowager Dong who spoke. Seeing that the general with facial features was also in the team, he smiled and said, "It's all my own family when the door is closed." Hurry up, please. ”

"Empress Dowager Xie." Greeting the queen again, Liu Bei got up. Roll over with the crowd and continue the procession.

Looking at the welcoming procession all the way away, Queen He suddenly said: "Marry the seventh lady once." How should the townsfolk deal with the candles in the cave room? ”

His Majesty smiled slightly: "The Seventh Lady of the Night, what's so difficult?" ”

He Hou rolled his eyes disdainfully, but didn't let anyone notice.

Saying. The queen's ability to take time to fly is very good.

Seven young ladies traveled all the way. The mood is up and down, first happy and then sad.

Looking forward to ten years, once wished. Nature's heart is full of joy sweeter than honey. However, along the way, the pomp of the honor guard and the weather of the imperial capital are far from being comparable to the hometown. His Majesty, together with the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, congratulated him on a high position, showing the grandeur of his holy grace. If it is rumored to have trespassed, it will make the lady dissatisfied. What if it is difficult for the husband to do it?

With this in mind, Sister Wan'er quietly opened the white glass window and called in a low voice: "Husband? ”

Liu Bei slowed down his horse when he heard this: "Madam? ”

"This trip is too ostentatious, why don't you go home earlier?" Sister Wan'er said softly.

"Madame, sit down." Liu Bei grinned: "The glory of the husband, the glory of the wife." Liu Bei's wish in life is to sit with his loved ones and enjoy the peace and accompany him to old age. Nai is as bright as flowing water. The rush is not back. The missing moment hanging in the husband's heart is about to drip out. The prosperity in front of you......"

"Concubine, it's a lie." Sister Wan'er said in a low voice.

"What do you say? Don't say that in the future. Just be in front of me and say whatever you want. Liu Bei smiled softly: "Thinking back to the first time my sisters arrived at home, I was curious and frightened. When she meets me, Sister Wan'er is always the first to laugh. At that time, I always felt that Sister Wan'er's smile was more powerful than the wooden sword in my hand. Sister Wan'er may not know. The apprehension of coming to the new world, I, too, are yours. ”

"Concubine, remember your husband's words." Sister Wan'er stared at the man in front of her who turned into her bones, and she would always give birth to a luscious heart that nourished her heart.

Luoyang City is really big.

Go around the north and south palaces, go out of the north gate again, go around the west Guo, go down to the south Guo, and return to the east Guo to be turned back, it is nearly noon. The retainers and guests were eagerly awaited. The so-called one is raw and two are ripe. Liu Bei is familiar with the wedding ceremony.

With his guidance, the Seventh Lady also passed the test perfectly.

Just as everyone has a dual identity back then. Although the etiquette is strict, it is sometimes flexible. The ancient style of rule by inaction and the feudal legal system of Confucianism are conflicting and opposite, but also inclusive and symbiotic. It's my big man's weather. If you are not there, you can't know it all.

Send the seven ladies to the second-floor dormitory.

Liu Bei rushed to the front hall to have a banquet with hundreds of officials. This is a private banquet, regardless of official rank. Although Liu Bei is the master, his mentor is also there. Liu Bei asked to take a seat, and the teacher couldn't refuse. This is vacant, and the guest and the host are seated. Liu Bei drank in turn, never rude. The long bench outside the door was full of neighbors. It is accompanied by two chief bookkeepers, two Fu Cao, as well as Yang Feng, Xu Huang and other guests. Presumably, no one will blame it.

The flowing water has two meanings.

One is that the banquet along the street stretches endlessly, and the wine and food on the table are like flowing water. Ranked in order, the food is endless. The second is that the guests are like clouds, you come and go, the seats are not empty, and the guests are constant. The guests here were full of wine and food, and as soon as they got up, there were newcomers seated, and they drank with the crowd.

Running water, one refers to the wine and food, and the other refers to the guests. Indispensable.

The long table is placed in front of the door, and the wine and food on the long table will be purchased by whoever buys it.

Some people have comparisons.

There are many wealthy merchants in the colony. The maids and cooks in the family are all one in a hundred. The feast organized with all his strength is regarded as a first-class delicacies (zhēn xiu měi zhuàn). The color and fragrance are beautiful, and the aroma is tangy. It is compatible with the beautiful scenery and hooks the appetite of the worms in the belly.

It's easy to get seated. Just take a piece of bamboo from the hand of the owner who is standing under the porch and ushering in the joyful face. Write who is the surname and where is the fairy town. Write a congratulatory message and you will be seated. After the feast, the bamboo pieces will be compiled into a gift book by the owners of each family and presented to the townspeople. So it is clear who is seated and what they congratulate.

There was a scholar who took a piece of bamboo in his hand and said to the owner of a certain family who was smiling: "Dare to ask the proprietor, just write your name and congratulatory message, and you can enter the table?" ”

saw that although he was dressed in white clothes, he was dignified and had his own bearing. The rich businessman didn't dare to slack off, so he returned the salute: "Yes." ”

"Don't take a penny?" The scholar asked again.

"Don't take a penny." The rich merchant replied again.

The scholar thought for a moment and said, "I wonder who set up this feast?" ”

The rich merchant replied with a smile: "It is set up for the marquis of Linxiang to marry the seventh lady in the colony." ”

"Excuse me, what does the proprietor have to do with the Linxiang Marquis?"

"Neighbors to each other." The rich businessman's face was pale.

"Oh?" The scholar smiled slightly: "That's all?" ”

The rich merchant smiled and nodded: "That's all!" ”

Seeing that the words and deeds of the rich businessman do not seem to be fake. The scholar then wrote down: Yingchuan Xixian. I wish Linxianghou a successful trip to the Western Regions.

Blow dry the ink and give it back to the rich merchant.

The wealthy merchant took it with both hands and sent the scholars to the table.

Similar scenes happen from time to time.

There are always people who will be skeptical, take bamboo slices in their hands, and write down their names and greetings. He was joyfully sent to the feast by his master. When he was full of wine and food, he said goodbye and left. It went all the way unimpeded. In the shipment, I looked back at the long table of flowing water that was full of people, and I believed it. Each sighed. The so-called Qianjinbo smiled. The proprietors of each family scattered a thousand gold, just to congratulate the townspeople.

People hope like this, what more can the husband ask for.

Seeing the man in white, he raised his glass and drank freely, his expression was calm, and his bearing was different from ordinary people, so the rich merchant came to pour the wine in person.

The man in white accepted it calmly.

When he was full of wine and food, he got up. Singing from the song.

The rich businessman sent it off. After getting up, I took the bamboo piece and looked at it again: "Yingchuan Opera Xian ......"
