Chapter 644: On the Eve of the Big Wedding!
Zhu Yousong is not stupid, he fled all the way, what kind of place Huai'an Mansion is, he understands it very well.
The point is, this thing is still in Jiangbei......
And the smile in Xu Changqing's eyes also made Zhu Yousong quickly understand that Xu Changqing didn't really let him go to Huai'an Mansion.
Man's desire to survive is endless.
In the face of the overwhelming pressure of Mount Tai, Zhu Yousong suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and said busily: "Master Hou, although Huai'an Mansion is good, it is too far away from Gu's hometown, and these days, Gu really doesn't like southern food, but has always liked Lu cuisine......"
As he spoke, he carefully looked at Xu Changqing's face, "Master Hou, the land of Qilu, the hometown of Confucius and Mencius, has always been a lonely place. Moreover, Lone has always liked the sea, you see, Lonely, can Lone go to Denglai? Of course, Master Hou, Lone can't be counted as asking for any reward, if he can pass on a son and a half daughter for Lone's lineage, Lone will want to convert to Buddhism......"
Xu Changqing couldn't help laughing.
Who the hell said that King Fu was stupid?
If King Fu was stupid, back then, could Lord Wanli like him so much?
"Lord Wang, since you have made a request, Changqing should do his best. It's just that many of these things are also powerless for a while. ”
Zhu Yousong was clever, and soon caught Xu Changqing's deep meaning, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Master Hou, this matter, this matter will be written to the Son of Heaven as soon as possible, and ask to go out of Beijing ......"
After sending Zhu Yousong away, Xu Changqing took a sip of tea, and his face gradually became solemn.
In this era, although the power of the Han people has been suppressed again and again, they must not underestimate anyone!
It's a hard thing to describe.
The reason why the Han people were defeated by the Manchu Qing was not only because of the Manchu list, but because of the cause and effect of many contradictions.
In other words, no matter how ruthless the Manchus were, they didn't kill the Han people!
And historically, the reason why they quickly pacified the south, whether it was a plan or an execution, they were all Han slaves!
I want to bring the general trend back to the right path in this situation.
As the big guy famously said: "The road is long, I will go up and down and seek!" ”
……
I stayed in the Wangjiazhuang Courtyard for two days, and planned the garrison arrangements here, including the blueprint for infrastructure construction, and it was also the eve of marrying Zhu Yujiao.
At this time, the mansion near Fucheng Bridge has been cleaned up, and there are only 200 beauties on Zhu Yujiao's side.
Many of them are in-laws of various clans in Nanjing, and they are more or less related to them.
No one is stupid.
This kind of thing, everyone knows it.
Any girl who has luck can give birth to a son and a half daughter for Xu Changqing in the future, and this transaction will make a lot of money!
As for the other servants, decorations, dowries, they are innumerable.
Early in the morning of September 28 in the first year of Hongguang, Xu Changqing came to the imperial city again.
first chatted with Zhu Cihong for a while about government affairs and the situation, and then turned his head to see Queen Zhou.
The canonization ceremony between her and the new queen Zhou Cairen, including Yuan Cairen, has been decided, and it will be after Zhu Yujiao's marriage.
Xu Changqing had to take Yuan Cairen out before that.
"You're so comfortable that you've gone out of town to be lazy."
In Kunning Palace, Queen Zhou Yingying smiled and personally served tea to Xu Changqing, she had basically completely controlled the situation in the harem at this time.
Not surprisingly, even if Zhou Cairen ascended to the throne later, he would not be able to occupy this Kunning Palace, which symbolizes the lord of the harem.
"Hehe, I'm in the city, I'm afraid many people will be unsteady, right? How's it going, how are these days? You're not sick, are you? ”
Xu Changqing smiled and played with the tea cup, looking at Queen Zhou's beautiful eyes, sincere and funny.
Queen Zhou's pretty face was slightly red, and there was some warmth in her heart, Xu Changqing didn't say anything about whether she was a person or a worker, and said angrily: "It's okay." When I'm done with this, I'll move out of the palace. By the way, how's your preparation? I heard that they have prepared a lot of gifts for you, two hundred beautiful little girls, hehe, and they are not afraid to tire you out! ”
Xu Changqing was a little speechless, and glanced at her angrily: "If I can choose, I am too lazy to feed so many people." In the future, let's look at fate. If appropriate, find them a good family. ”
Hearing this, Queen Zhou was slightly moved, and her pretty face was slightly solemn: "Changqing, it's good if you have this heart, and it's not easy for them." ”
Xu Changqing naturally understood her deep meaning.
These girls are poor people, and they are even worse than those Oiran who were sold into the green building......
To some extent, Queen Zhou still retains a kindness.
The two chatted for a while, and Xu Changqing also shifted the topic to the main topic, and directly threw out the matter of Yuan Cairen.
This is also the result of Xu Changqing's careful consideration.
Even if through other means, Xu Changqing has a way to exchange Yuan Cairen's 'tanuki for the prince', but this kind of thing is not without flaws, and it will undoubtedly leave hidden dangers.
It's better to tell Queen Zhou directly and see how she handles it?
"You, you, you ......"
Queen Zhou was really shocked, and her pretty face turned a little pale.
Xu Changqing has undoubtedly touched her bottom line.
However, seeing that Xu Changqing could tell this matter, she felt a little better, after all, Yuan Cairen and Zhu Cihong have always been very angry.
After a while, she couldn't help but look at Xu Changqing faintly and said, "I really don't know, how will the history books evaluate ...... in the future?"
Xu Changqing smiled: "Let's write whatever they want, how they write?" ”
“……”
Empress Zhou came back to her senses for a long time, and said with a complaint: "I will arrange this matter as soon as possible." By the way, when are you leaving? ”
Xu Changqing smiled and said, "Early October." Jiao'er is about to give birth, and Haicheng is also full of troubles, and I have just received information that the thieves and the Qing army have burst out with great sparks around Tongguan, and it is very likely that there will be a big collision in a few days. I want to take advantage of this opportunity to see if I can regain some of the lost ground. ”
Hearing that Xu Changqing was still aggressive, Queen Zhou's beautiful eyes lit up significantly, but her face was reluctant to say: "So anxious? Changqing, you're leaving, I, what can I do? ”
……
Leaving the imperial city, Xu Changqing immersed his whole person in the smoke of the carriage, and suddenly smiled coldly.
The words that Jin Da borrowed from Zhang Wuji's mother Yin Susu are really too classic.
Women are creatures, don't take them seriously unless you have to!
This time, Xu Changqing did not return to the barracks, but came directly to the 'Haicheng Houfu' of Fucheng Bridge.
When he came here, Xu Changqing couldn't stop being amazed.
There is a tributary of the Qinhuai River flowing here, along the river bank all the way through, the carriage has to walk for more than ten minutes, this is to the main gate.
That's not to say it's big.
Xu Changqing's new mansion in Haicheng is even bigger than this.
However, don't forget that this is in Nanjing, where every inch of land is valuable, and it is the most core area of Nanjing!
In particular, a moat thirty or forty meters wide has been built outside the mansion with the help of natural river water, which is like an isolated island and towers in the center of the city.
Close the door, it's a kingdom in its own right.
After entering the house, it is even more breathtaking.
Pavilions and pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, layer upon layer, mist, exquisitely like a picture scroll!
But it is not an ordinary picture scroll, but it has been immersed and precipitated for a long time.
Even Xu Changqing couldn't stop sighing.
This house is not much inferior to the Imperial City.
In later generations, like the 'Humble Administrator's Garden', this garden and that garden, they are not even worthy of carrying shoes.
It is no exaggeration to say that if this house is preserved for future generations, no one but the state will be able to afford it.
But......
It's the other way around.
At this time, in addition to Xu Changqing, only the Duke of Wei and the Duke of Dingguo dared to live in this kind of house.
"I've seen the old man......"
"I've seen the old man......"
The little maids in the house have already taken office, and sure enough, they are all like hibiscus out of the water, each more handsome than the other.
And there is no wind and dust, many maids have the kind of calm and noble atmosphere precipitated in the wealthy families.
Rao is Xu Changqing has already gone through the baptism of Haicheng's 'Oiran Selection Competition', and he has seen many big scenes in later generations, and he can't help but be amazed at this time.
The life of a rich person is not at all imaginable by ordinary people......
Coming to the main hall, sitting on the Taishi chair made of good yellow pears in Hainan, looking at the majestic historical accumulation in the hall, Xu Changqing couldn't help but flutter for a while.
Fuck it, don't change it for a god.
"Big handsome, Qian Ge Lao asks to see you."
At this time, Wang Xi respectfully came over to report.
"Hmm. Let him in. ”
"Yes."
After a while, Qian Qianyi came with a quick walk, and hurriedly saluted Xu Changqing: "I've seen Hou Ye, I haven't seen you for a few days, Hou Ye's demeanor is better than in the past." ”
"Hehe, old money, your mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter. Have a seat. How's it going, how are things going? ”
Xu Changqing scolded with a smile and was not polite to him.
But in this way, Qian Qianyi was more down-to-earth, and reported to Xu Changqing in a busy manner: "Master Hou, everything is ready, as soon as it dawns tomorrow, we will go to the imperial city to welcome our relatives." Just ......"
As he spoke, he suddenly squirmed slightly.
"Say!"
Qian Qianyi was taken aback, cold sweat oozed out, and suddenly remembered Xu Changqing's temperament, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Master Hou, about the welcoming team, people, there are really a lot of people, everyone, everyone wants to go with you to greet relatives, especially many noble children......"
Xu Changqing frowned slightly, but he was quickly relieved.
I've been busy these days, but I've forgotten about it.
The greeting team, especially the greeting team that can be by Xu Changqing's side, is actually the best man, which is definitely a super gilded job.
After all, Xu Changqing himself is already unspeakably expensive, and he is still married to a princess who is a serious child!
Whoever can show their face on this, for many people, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the 'highlight moment' of their lives.
Let's not talk about it here.
On the side of the martial arts group, including Wang Tingchen, Liu Zhaoji, Liu Zeqing, Liu Liangzuo, Huang Degong, Zuo Menggeng and a large number of other people, they must be with Xu Changqing.
This is already more than a dozen people, if you count Xu Qihai and the children of their civil officials and nobles......
Hundreds of people are waiting for the hell......
But it's not good to say no outright, after all, it's a big joy.
"How many are there now?"
Xu Changqing looked at Qian Qianyi.
"Almost, almost more than five hundred ......"
Qian Qianyi was also a little speechless, and said busily: "Master Hou, this is still the result of our careful streamlining, basically only one or two per family, otherwise it will ......."
“……”
Xu Changqing was speechless, but, if you think about it carefully, this is not a bad thing, even if you are said to be extravagant, then be extravagant.
After all, Zhu Yujiao marries herself, and she is married after all.
After thinking for a while, Xu Changqing simply said decisively: "Then let's do it!" Let them all clean up, who dares to drop the chain for Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu peeled his skin! ”
"Yes......"
