Chapter 373: The Big Wedding (6)
During a meal, everyone chatted very lively, mainly Li Xun, talking about the customs and customs of Longyou, and the others were fine, but You Yuanfeng listened to it with relish, and talked with Li Xun very happily, for no other reason, Wuzong before Hezong, You Yuanfeng has served in Longyou for many years, and it is also where he started.
After eating a meal, Li Xun did not stay long and said goodbye and left.
In the room, You Yuanfeng sat upright, drinking tea, the wind was light, and it was very leisurely.
You Mingyuan, Liu Chongji, and Liu Zhigu sat below.
"Old man, you have a lot of importance for Li Xun."
Liu Zhigu was the first to break the silence.
You Yuanfeng smiled and said lightly: "It's not important to talk about it, but Li Xun's temper also makes the old man like it very much." ”
"Old man, I didn't understand before, why didn't you think much about the marriage between Li Xun and You Min, just nodded and agreed, wouldn't it be better for our You family to watch from the outside?"
The big family, whether you like it or not is secondary, the important thing is the interests, the marriage between Li Xun and You Min, it seems that Zhao Zhi found You Mingyuan, and then it is logical, in fact, how can the marriage of the big family be a daughter-in-law? In this matter, You Mingyuan once passed a letter to You Yuanfeng to ask for opinions, and the latter agreed, Li Xun and You Min's marriage, this was decided, according to You Mingyuan's original intention, the You family stayed out of the matter, who was the prince, and how much did it have to do with him?
You Yuanfeng said lightly: "The You family and the An family era are married, the relationship has been endless, the An family now supports the Wing King, the Wing King wins, we can also follow the light, if we are defeated, the An family suffers, can our You family escape?" ”
Liu Chongji continued: "What the old man means is that we choose the support of the prince other than the Wing King, if the Wing King is defeated, we can also escape the blow, and the Wing King wins, and with the relationship between the You family and the An family, the family can also be preserved." ”
You Yuanfeng smiled: "There are two sides to the matter, why do you have to hang yourself on a tree?" ”
Liu Zhigu said softly: "It seems that the old man is still quite confident in Qi Wang. ”
You Mingyuan said: "The Wing King has Hedong as the foundation, even if the battle for the throne fails, there is a way out. ”
You Mingyuan's meaning is obvious, the Wing King has advanced and retreated, fully supports the King of Qi and fights against the Wing King, this deal is not worth it.
You Yuanfeng was silent in thought, and everyone's eyes were on him, although Liu Zhigu was already a prime minister, but You Yuanfeng's officialdom experience was so rich, his opinion would definitely be useful.
You Yuanfeng took a sip of tea, nodded, and said lightly: "The overall situation in the world has become a chaos, and the current court, with Liu Yi's withdrawal, is still able to maintain balance and stability because Yang Daosi is still there, but he is only a few years younger than me, how long can he reign?" Once Yang Daosi leaves, how long can a mere Li Zhong rely on the support of the army alone, without the support of civil and political affairs? ”
Listening to You Yuanfeng's words, everyone fell into deep thought.
After a while, You Mingyuan looked at You Yuanfeng and said softly, "It seems that the old man is still optimistic about King Qi." ”
Liu Zhigu and Liu Chongji both nodded, expressing their agreement with You Mingyuan.
You Yuanfeng put down the teacup and sighed, "You still don't understand what I mean. ”
Liu Zhigu asked, "What does the old man mean by this?" ”
You Yuanfeng said lightly: "What does the continuation of the family depend on? There is advance and retreat, a tendon to the black, like a bet on the size, either life or death, this is too dangerous, the situation in Longyou will develop in the future, it will not be very bad, if it is in the give Li Xun a few years, he will be able to establish his own foundation in Longyou, in this way, we also have to rely on, finally Li Xun or King Qi failed, the king of wings is on the throne, there is an family as an intermediary, we will not have a catastrophe. ”
Liu Chongji asked rhetorically: "What about the King of Chu?" ”
You Yuanfeng sneered: "If the King of Chu is really on the throne, the Yang family's qi cloud will also reach the top, the King of Chu is not a puppet, the Great Jin Dynasty is still breathing, or the Yang family usurped the throne, the Yang family has lasted for more than six hundred years, the momentum is too great, but it suffers, judging from the situation in recent years, Yang Daosi intends to seek stability, obviously the Yang family has no further plans, Zhao Zhi is not the master of mediocrity, how can this not be seen?" In this case, the king of Chu seems to be the most powerful, but there is no possibility of succession. ”
After listening to You Yuanfeng's words, everyone was shocked, what is left of the Nine Great Pillar National Clans at the beginning of the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty? Only the Yang family is left, and the rest of the eight pillar national clans were all eradicated one by one when their power reached its peak, and when the water was full, it overflowed, and Yang Daosi would not fail to understand this truth.
Everyone is not talking, You Yuanfeng's meaning is already very clear, fully support King Qi and keep Li Xun's military power in Wuzhou, even if the world is in chaos in the future, as long as Li Xun's military power is in hand, the You family and the Liu family still have a way out, at least they can protect themselves.
In the eighth year of Chengping, December 15, You Yuanfeng's 80th birthday was held lively, and I don't know if it was Li Xun's advice, after the birthday, You Yuanfeng was not in a hurry to leave.
On December 25, the wedding of Li Xun and You Min arrived as scheduled.
Six rites, ancient marriage rites. It refers to the six types of etiquette in the process from marriage proposal to consummation.
Nacai, ask for names, Najib, Nazheng, invitation, welcome. Nacai means that the man's family invites the matchmaker to go to the woman's house to propose, and after the woman's family agrees to propose marriage, the man's family prepares six ceremonies before the ceremony to propose.
Asking for a name, that is, the man's family asks the matchmaker to ask the woman's name and date of birth.
Najib, that is, after the man retrieves the woman's name and eight characters, he performs divination in the ancestral temple.
Na Zheng, also known as Na Yuan, that is, the man's family gives the woman's family a dowry gift.
The invitation date, the man's family chooses the marriage date, prepares the gift and informs the woman's family, and asks for her consent.
A day or two before the wedding, the woman gives a dowry, makes the bed, and the groom goes to the woman's house to marry the next day.
The marriage between Li Xun and You Min, the You family can be described as generous, the dowry, 3,000 taels of good land, 300,000 taels of silver, 20,000 taels of gold, add up, not to mention millions?
Busy until late at night, Li Xun shook his body and walked towards the cave room.
Halfway through, Li Xiao suddenly appeared, put his arm around Li Xun's shoulders, and said with a smile: "Boss Li, don't pretend, I prepared the wine jug at night in advance, and I won't get drunk no matter how much I drink." ”
"I mean, it's not even tasteful."
Li Xun glanced at Li Xiao, and there was still a half drunkenness on his face.
Li Xiao laughed: "It's white water, what can it taste like." ”
Hearing this, Li Xun couldn't help laughing.
When he arrived at the door of the cave room, Li Xiao patted Li Xun on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "**A moment is worth a thousand gold, so I won't bother." ”
Li Xun pushed him away: "Hurry up and get out." "I want to talk to more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
