Chapter 234: Dignity

The Chinese people are very clever and extremely flexible in dealing with problems, and they can easily say a number of completely different things for the same thing. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

A sincere person like Hai Rui is a minority.

It's like all kinds of so-called bad omens, and it's not easy to find a good word for them?

King Wu was in a storm, not only the drum was destroyed, the flagpole was broken, and even the horse that pulled the cart for King Wu was killed by thunder. Others felt unlucky, and Duke Zhou also asked to withdraw on the grounds that the divination result was not good, but Jiang Taigong and his old man said: "Don't be involved in the war, obeying the way of heaven may not be auspicious, and going against the sky may not be fierce." Wise generals never care about this, only stupid generals stick to it......"

As a result, everyone knows. This belongs to the interpretation of simple materialism, which has a kind of momentum of "I am the master of my good fortune and evil".

If Yao Guangxiao is replaced, it will be a lot of nonsense. When Zhu Di decided to raise troops and fight for the disaster, he suddenly thundered and lifted the roof tiles, not to mention the soldiers, even he himself was startled, thinking that it was a bad omen. But Monk Yao was stunned and said that this was "the real dragon ascended to heaven, and the wind and rain were great", and he turned the so-called evil omen into a royal domineering, and the destiny of heaven returned, giving everyone a reassurance.

As a result, the Jingnan army entered Nanjing, and Zhu Di also became the son of Yongle.

Although the flickering of Lord Ge is inevitably far-fetched, it is enough to convince the soldiers below. Nine out of ten people who have joined the army in these years are old and rude, and they have great respect for learned scholars, and they are naturally very convinced by what people say.

So, the crowd of onlookers dispersed silently, and many people left with happy faces, as if the errand was really good, and they were as honored as they were.

The corners of Master Ge's mouth twitched a few times. He winked at his entourage and whispered, "Go, put this pole away, don't throw it away." Also, go find a flagpole again, and make it stronger. If not, send someone to the capital to get it! ”

The retinue took the command. As soon as he wanted to go back to the tent to rest, he swept to a person who looked like a guard beside him staring at him intently, and that look was extremely strange.

The man, who was a little hairy, immediately looked at the man...... Yes, he is Xiao Jing.

Although I admired Lord Ge's quick wit, Xiao Jing was also unhappy with others' words.

What "God-given couples" and "full of children and grandchildren" are all nonsense!

Xiao Jing is like a man whose girlfriend is used to tell meat jokes, and the whole person is not good. That Hu man is a yarn, aren't you disgusting Miss Xia in disguise?

Seeing that the wedding messenger was looking at this side, he hurriedly saluted and turned to leave, leaving only the other party's back.

Back at the camp, the aroma of Xia Hanxue's tent was already wafting out. The people of the Xia family gathered together very together, and everyone had a sense of indignation on their faces.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Jing asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Although he is an outsider, he was personally inserted into the team by Xia Honghan, and the family members more or less know his relationship with his own Miss and Miss Cousin. Therefore, the nominal leader of this team is Xia San, but in fact it is Xiao Jing.

Hearing him ask, a family member gritted his teeth and said: "Brother Xiao, the villain went out to do errands, and I heard a official from the Ministry of Rites chatting with people and saying...... They don't pay attention to my young lady at all, saying that 'the country is poor and can't prepare generous gifts', and they don't even have much dowry for the imperial court, but it's just 500 sheep...... Is there really such a thing?

Xiao Jing was silent.

Xia Honghan told him something about harmony, but it was the first time he had heard of "five hundred sheep" or something.

The Central Plains Dynasty has always attached great importance to the etiquette of affinity. The Han and Tang dynasties rejected the Huns' request for peace with the Turks, on the grounds that "marriage will be permanent, the contract must be heavy, and the number of rituals should be weekly......

This is normal, big countries often want to save face and pay attention to etiquette, and casual harmony is really a loss of identity. Ordinary people still pay attention to a decent dowry when they marry their daughters, how can the harmony between the two countries be handled at will?

It's a pity that some people just don't skimp on you. Five Hundred Sheep......

If you catch up with the peak season of catering, this number is only the daily consumption of more than 50 large restaurants in Beijing and its surroundings!

Xia Hanxue, an outstanding woman of the sky, can be used as a representative of outstanding young women in the Great Rui Dynasty. A beautiful woman who is alive and fragrant, one of the few in the world, wants to go out of the pavilion, and the dowry she receives is only 500 sheep?

It's just an insult!

No matter how poor the Cheshanri tribe is, it is still a large tribe that has survived for hundreds of years. After dealing with the Han people for so many years, how can there be no gold, silver and jewelry? Don't the nobles of the tribe and their women wear gold and silver?

Even if they were really poor, with nothing to do with them except for the cattle and sheep that were not in need of the steppe, what should they say about the several raids in the north? And what about the dirty, blood-spilled "loot"? Can't you just come up with some meaning?

To put it bluntly, people don't take their relatives seriously at all, and they don't even have the idea of doing superficial work.

Xiao Jing could fully understand the anger of the Xia family. My own lady is like a worthless goods being thrown around, not only the seller does not cherish it, but even the buyer does not cherish it!

It's no wonder, who cares about something that's almost free?

This Ministry of Rites, this court, in a sense, is really hopeless.

In later generations, some students who studied diplomacy were asked to read the "Biography of Lian Po Lin Xiangru" several times, which they had read during the compulsory education stage. Why? Foreign affairs are no trivial matter, and diplomats are the dignity and dignity of the country, so it is natural to learn more from the deeds of Lin Xiangru, Yan Zi, Su Wu and others.

Da Ruichao is so good, he doesn't even want his face, so he almost didn't say the last sentence, "We will post the county lord of Guangling upside down to you"!

Although it is not said, the truth is similar. The dowry with Xia Hanxue was very rich, and Da Ruichao really sent away her most outstanding daughter with money.

Xiao Jing looked at the stunned family members and said in a low voice: "The court has decided like this, what can you and I say?" Instead of worrying about these things that we can't decide, it's better to do our part and protect the lady with all our might. If someone really despises her, Xiao is fighting to the death, and he has to seek justice, and I believe you are the same. ”

Everyone nodded silently. Just as he was about to say a few relaxing words to liven up the atmosphere, a familiar voice floated not far away: "You are just timid, what is there to be afraid of going to the grassland?" Lao Tzu has long wanted to see the scenery of the northern country, and the roasted whole sheep made by the Hu people is much stronger than that made in the capital......"

Xiao Jing turned his head to look, and he was so happy that he almost jumped up from the ground.
