86. Marriage

I also talked about some things, because Bai Zinan was not good at doing things and rarely went far away, and Ru Sanshui also told him about the customs and customs of many places.

Bai Zinan's maidservant has been standing behind Bai Zinan, quietly not interjecting, with a gentle and delicate smile in her eyebrows. Ru Sanshui looked familiar to her, she should have seen the dancer who was saved by Bai Zinan before.

Ru Sanshui remembered Jiang Heng again and said that when he went out with his maidservants, he usually had already promised to get married. Both of them are gentle and gentle, and they look like a good match. But Ru Sanshui didn't ask.

When Jiang Heng came out, Ru Sanshui wanted to go back with him, and Bai Zinan also happened to go in to meet the elders.

Before leaving, Ru Sanshui said: "I see that your appearance is always very kind, if you don't mind, you will have a chance to meet in the future, and you can gossip with me." ”

No one noticed that Bai Zinan's handmaid was staring at Ru Sanshui's back with an unpredictable expression, until she disappeared at the end of the Bai family's garden path.

On the way back, I walked through the streets and alleys and saw fireworks in the world.

Ru Sanshui took out a piece of red rope from his sleeve and handed it to Jiang Heng: "Give it to you, take it with you, I don't know when I can save your life, remember not to wash it." ”

She was still worried about Jiang Heng's soul injury because of her before, no matter how minor the injury was, it had recovered, and after all, it was a soul, and she was still afraid of future troubles.

The rope was made of nine hundred and eighty-one threads, one of which was black, and cut into two, hanging down at four ends, and made four strands. The use of red silk is to cover up a drop of blood dripping from Ru Sanshui, and the black silk is the first-line soul of Ru Sanshui.

It works best when tied to the hand, and it can be used to hang a jade pendant, if Jiang Heng is in danger of life and death, it can protect Jiang Heng's soul.

Jiang Heng attached great importance to the things that Ru Sanshui gave him, and put them away without asking too much.

Along the way, Ru Sanshui heard some rumors in the market, and she knew a rough idea.

The Qin King Zhu Fan she had seen before, now fourteen years old, recently received a marriage decree from the emperor of Yingtianfu in his palace in Xi'an, saying: "The daughter of the right prime minister of Henan Wang Baobao is the princess of Qin." ”

This complicated name sounds big, and Ru Sanshui probably heard that it was a relative of a deceased official who was given marriage by the emperor to marry the king of Qin.

But I heard that the bride Min Min Temur, the woman who returned to the Ming Dynasty and changed her name to Wang Minmin, publicly refused to marry.

She said: "My brother is loyal and righteous, and he does not want to surrender. Since I am the people of Ming, I am already seeking peace, how can I enter the Ming Gate once and marry the enemy of the country!"

The implication is that my brother has already died fighting against your Zhu family, and I have returned to you for the sake of my family's life.

The emperor originally thought of Zhao'an, from the previous dynasty to the new dynasty, the people were like a family. As soon as Wang Minmin's words came out, the government and the opposition shook, and King Qin's face couldn't hold back.

There is no doubt that Wang Minmin is resisting the decree, and now he is just waiting to see what the emperor will do next.

Jiang Heng said to Ru Sanshui in private: "Although I can't say this to the public, I still praise Wang Minmin's integrity, in order to protect the family and reluctantly surrender, and generously sacrifice life and death for loyalty." ”

As for King Qin, Jiang Heng had met him several times, and he did not have a deep relationship. But it's not easy to comment rashly. In the early years of Hongwu, Hongdong moved to the people, and the Jiang family's foundation in Xinzhou Mansion was not yet stable, and they could not be discordant with the King of Qin.

Ru Sanshui thought, Zhu Fan was probably helpless, he couldn't make the decision about this marriage, and it was his business to be scolded.

Riding through the busiest street market, the road gradually became deserted, after all, the ground in the dock is low, and it is normal for fewer people to settle down.

The tall heads of the two are parallel to each other, in order to sit firmly on the horse, the backbone and shoulders are straight, like walking in the world, and they can travel far away only if they are upright.

Ru Sanshui sighed: "I often see the rise and fall of prosperity and decline now, but I only think that if the world is the same, it doesn't matter who has the surname in the world." ”

Jiang Heng didn't refute, only reminded in a low voice: "This can only be said to me." ”

Ru Sanshui's fingers touched his disguised face: "Naturally, I still have my things to do, and before that, I won't be okay to make trouble for myself." ”

The days without waves always pass quickly, and Ru Sanshui feels that if she continues to spend time like this, it will go against her original intention of going down the mountain.

She has brought back the White Deer Sword, in addition to finding her own fate, she also has to observe the Tao of this world, and do her best to make the world harmonious from the other direction.

However, there has been no new movement here in the Night God Sect, and she is afraid that if she is distracted, the enemy will be dark and I will be clear, and she will lose the opportunity to fight again.

Ru Sanshui thought about simply taoguang and obscurity, and then mentioned cultivation. I'm afraid that there will be an incident in the middle, and every time I let Ah Bao chant the scriptures and sing the Fa by the side, it can not only protect it, but also cover up the abnormal movement.

After all, Jiang Heng left her privately, not a public matter. Except for Jiang Huai, Shen Rongkne, and Ruan Hongque, no one else knows that Ru Sanshui is Xiao Sanniang.

No, Ru Sanshui thought about it again, Bai Zinan may know that this child is not simple. Could it be him who corresponded with the Liang family, but how could he know her relationship with the White Deer Sword?

At the end of the year, Jiang Huai had previously lent Ruan Hongque a team of men, and when he came back from the path, he was caught by the head of the Jiang family. On the second day, Jiang Huaicai arrived at Xinzhou Mansion alone, and failed to meet the day when this group of people returned to Jiang's house.

This matter made a big fuss, because the elders of the Jiang family had always thought that this group of people was specially accompanying Jiang Huai to protect Jiang Huai, but it was found out that they had quietly returned from Ying Tianfu.

When questioning in the Jiang family ancestral hall, Jiang Heng accompanied Jiang Huai, and Ru Sanshui naturally followed him consciously, but he stood outside the door and didn't go in.

They worshipped their ancestors, and they all sat down. Jiang Huai knelt alone in the middle.

Ru Sanshui was well-behaved, standing at the door like the rest of his entourage, but Yu Guang couldn't help but look at it.

Sitting on either side were elders. Sitting in the middle was the head of the Jiang family, the father of Jiang Heng and Jiang Huai's two brothers, and Jiang Heng was standing beside his father. Sitting next to her was the main mother, who was Jiang Huai's biological mother.

Jiang Heng's biological mother, Bai, was a concubine, who died of weakness in her early years, and the ranking was placed behind.

Speaking of this Bai family, it is naturally the Shinshu Bai family, it is said that he married far away from the north back then, but he only became a concubine. gave birth to the eldest son Jiang Heng for the Jiang family, and now the spiritual position and tomb have moved to Xinzhou Mansion with the Jiang family, which can be regarded as returning to his hometown.

The head of the house asked in the hall, "When will these hands be lent?"

Jiang Huai knelt down, his back was still straight, and he replied very simply: "After the banquet of King Qin." ”

King Qin's banquet? Ru Sanshui remembered that Ruan Hongque had indeed said at that time that there were other things to come to Xinzhou.

On the right side of the main mother, it should be the mother's family, which uncle is it, and asked: "What are you lending that Ruan Hongque for? You also have to learn from the unbearable Bai family and do personal things with the official family?"

Jiang Heng's deceased mother was also a member of the Bai family, and the housewife felt that her brother's words were unpleasant, and the face of the head of the family was not very good, so she coughed.

Jiang Huai replied: "Back to the fifth uncle's words, Ruan Hongque borrowed someone to spy on his father-in-law, Liu Bowen and Lord Liu. ”

When the head of the family heard this, he was furious: "Who allowed you to borrow someone? Monitor the court officials! If he intends to assassinate, how many lives do you have to pay back?"

Jiang Huai bowed respectfully, and put his head on the back of his hand: "Back to my father, I didn't know about it at the time, thinking that he was borrowing someone for official business, but later I found out, so I transferred someone back." It was the son who did not know people, and asked his father to punish him. ”

The mistress relented and persuaded, "That's it, fortunately, they all came back before the year-end puja." Nothing happened, so let's let this time go. ”

Jiang Heng heard about the Fa meeting next to him, and he walked away for a moment, and then made up his mind again, and stepped forward in time while the master mother had just finished speaking: "Father, Ah Huai didn't do it on purpose, he still needs to be experienced, and he doesn't have to be responsible." ”

The head of the family was sad and angry: "This is your personal guard, you don't spare your life, you want to bear it for your father, but how can your father bear it for you for a lifetime?"

Jiang Huai knelt for a long time and did not answer again.

The final punishment was just a formality, but all those people were replaced, and the new manpower was under the orders of the head of the family, except for the premise that someone had to protect Jiang Huai at all times, Jiang Huai could dispatch them freely.

Out of the ancestral hall, the first thing Jiang Heng did was to take away Ru Sanshui. Ru Sanshui followed in a daze, not knowing what he was anxious about.

Walking to a place where no one was, Jiang Hengcai explained to Ru Sanshui: "After moving here, we did a festival in the town house, which was originally once every nine years, and I originally thought that the festival at the end of this year would be exempted, but what Fang Cai's mother meant would be that it would be carried out as usual." ”

Ru Sanshui was puzzled: "Fa meeting, what's wrong?"
