Chapter 233: Talent
The size of the pro-team is huge. In addition to the people around Xia Hanxue, there were thousands www.biquge.info of officers and soldiers guarding the periphery, and such a huge establishment naturally couldn't go very fast, and when they set up camp in the evening, the group didn't even go to the town where Xiao Jing had stopped twice when he went north.
The word disadvantage is simply too suitable for them: less than a stick of incense was set up after the camp was set up, an evil wind suddenly blew from the sky, and it was very evil to blow off the flagpole next to the big tent of the wedding envoy!
Many of the sergeants were discolored.
This is a time of all kinds of superstitions. If many things are not explained scientifically, people will think in inexplicable directions. Generally speaking, breaking the flagpole in a strong wind indicates that the enemy is coming to rob the camp; If it is not a robbery, it means that the military operation will be frustrated. For a friendly team...... Not a good sign anyway.
The name Beihu is synonymous with killing and nightmares in the eyes of the people of Da Rui. Although there are many bloody men in the army, there are also some people who will turn their legs and stomachs when they hear these two words, and they can't even walk. Thousands of miles to send relatives, where can it be compared to a leisurely and leisurely life in the station? Many people were reluctant to go north in the first place, but when they saw the broken flagpole in half, their hearts beat even more. For a time, whispers could be heard everywhere in the camp, and even the officers' shouts could not be suppressed.
The wedding made Lord Ge rush to the outside of the tent to take a look, and his face immediately turned green.
He was originally an unambitious outsider in the Ministry of Rites, and he was basically in a state of mixed eating and waiting for seniority. The matter of harmony must have come down, and everyone began to discuss the choice of the marriage envoy, and Lord Ge was "lucky" to be chosen.
There are three reasons for choosing him: first, the peace between the two countries is a major event, and the rank of the marriage envoy is too low to be justified, and it is too high to promote the Hu people; Discussions came and went, and he was the most suitable outsider from the fifth grade.
Second, all the adults are not stupid, everyone knows that this is a drudgery that does not have half the benefits, and if you don't get it right, you will have to take your life. Relatively speaking, an idler like Lord Ge, who "has more than him, no more than him, and no less than him", is suitable for being cannon fodder.
Third, there are not many people in the Ministry of Rites who are close to Xia Honghan, and everyone doesn't dare to get too close to this mud bodhisattva. However, out of awe of the Xia family, the officials also did not dare to show obvious alienation from Xia Honghan. As a result, you can only be separated from him.
It is extremely aggrieved for the Xia family to marry their daughter to Beihu, although everyone doesn't say it, they all know it. In order to show the care between colleagues, he must send someone who is close to the Xia family, so that he can take care of Xia Hanxue intimately and try his best on the road, and it can be regarded as selling Xia Honghan a face.
In the end, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu had to make a decision in person: Xiaoge, it's decided that it's you! I heard that you have a good relationship with Lord Xia...... Don't shirk it, our Ah Er will see you go to Xia Mansion to send New Year's greetings! Well, that's it!
No matter how Lord Ge denied it with his hands, he deservedly became the poor duck in "Chasing Ducks to the Shelf".
When the "duck" becomes a wedding messenger, everything is irretrievable.
Looking at the flagpole on the ground blankly, Lord Ge sighed in his heart: Tragedy! I knew that this would be the case, so Lao Tzu didn't have the idea of settling with Xia Honghan to send him the souvenirs of his hometown!
It's okay to be sad, the problem has to be solved. As the leader of the whole team, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at him, this pot can't be shaken off!
Master Ge, who had a sad face, held back his words for a while, and somehow suddenly blessed his heart, patted his thigh and laughed: "You don't have to worry too much. The broken flagpole is a very auspicious omen! In this way, the county lord is very lucky, Da Rui is very lucky, and the world is very lucky! ”
Xiao Jing, who appeared nearby, almost smashed his jaw to the ground.
He had some ideas, but he didn't intend to help them come up with ideas. After all, he is the person in the entire family sending team who is most looking forward to the tree falling and scattering, and there is no one.
If the hearts of the people are really shaken and scattered, I am afraid that Xiao Jing will be able to laugh out of tears. Therefore, he just came to see the excitement, and he was definitely not afraid of big things.
What the hell is this wedding envoy talking about? Could it be that he already has a statement?
With a smile on his face, Lord Ge looked around at the bewildered people, leaned over and picked up a piece of flagpole, and said loudly, "Does anyone know what kind of wood this pole is made of?" ”
One of the soldiers, who may have been a carpenter before, approached and looked at it twice, and whispered, "If the villain is not mistaken, this wood must be indox wood from Johor." ”
Master Ge said approvingly: "Yes, you are very knowledgeable. Do you know another way to pronounce this word? ”
The man touched his head, smiled and shook his head. He is not a literati, and chewing words or anything is definitely not a forte.
In addition to indonic eggplant, he may also know braised eggplant and fish-flavored eggplant; If he wants to say what else he reads, he really doesn't know.
Master Ge smiled smugly: "Let me tell you, this word is still good, and the best time is like a dream!" ”
A group of big-headed soldiers and two monks were puzzled, they didn't want to hear the wedding make the adults drop their bookbags.
In desperation, Master Ge could only patiently say: "The flagpole is broken into two, right?" Pairs are coupled, and eggplant is also used as 'good', which means good couple. The gust of wind was very strong, but it was not violent, and it was an extremely rare southerly wind at this time. We are about to go north, isn't this a "smooth sail"? Before the procession of sending off relatives set out, the south wind was sent from heaven, isn't this a divine wind? On the day of the county lord's wedding, the kamika wind blew off the eggplant flagpole, isn't this the meaning of 'a heaven-sent couple'? ”
The more Master Ge spoke, the more energetic he became, and even his beard trembled slightly: "The eggplant room is a lotus canopy." Did you ever pick lotus pods when you were in your hometown? Have you ever eaten lotus seeds? Anyone who has been married knows that there are many lotus seeds in the lotus canopy, and the people like its meaning of "many sons and grandchildren, and full of children and grandchildren".
The flagpole was blown off from the middle, and the two poles were almost the same length, indicating that Da Rui and Beihu were brothers of the same root and origin, and they should have joined hands side by side a long time ago. The good couple is in pairs, and the eggplant room is also in pairs, which shows that in the future, the county lord and husband of Guangling will not only be able to have a full house of children and grandchildren, but their children will also benefit Darui and Beihu.
The official thinks that the best of the children will not only become the nobles of Beihu, but also the people who will be able to follow their mother's surname and return to Darui to make a career in the future. What kind of good story is a good story for brothers whose blood is thicker than water to build a bridge of communication between the two countries and work together for the well-being of people all over the world! Woohoo, Daji, Daji! ”
He originally wanted to take Jin Riyan, who returned to the Han Dynasty, as an example, but later pondered that Jin Riyan defected to the Han Dynasty after his father died, and it was unlucky to say it, so he swallowed the words back.
Xiao Jing, who was standing on the side, was completely speechless.
This is talent!
