Chapter 1453: Marriage
Wen Han listened, but smiled indifferently, raised his head silently, and said softly.
"Since the ancient road, life and death have been fateful, and the lone one was born in a poor family, and it is possible to get today's dignity, thanks to the martial arts under his command, who are all outstanding people in the world, who complement each other wholeheartedly, and the people are sincerely convinced, so that the foundation of the Tang Dynasty can be established. Shun'er, you should remember. All emperors and monarchs should put the people's wishes first, and should not insist on coercion, and subdue people with virtue, otherwise they will be cruel and unkind. You are quick-witted, both civil and military, but you attach too much importance to fame and fortune. If you become king in the future, perhaps the world will already be unified. But this world is not the other world, although the land of China is vast and boundless, but in fact it is the tip of the iceberg. If you have great ambitions, you will definitely be able to expand the frontier for the Western Tang Dynasty and become the first emperor in the ages! But this is both a blessing and a curse. If you go to war and recruit troops on a large scale, the people will not be able to be safe, and they will inevitably rebel. And you should remember that when the Western Tang Dynasty is far stronger than other countries, you should give deterrence first, then treat each other with courtesy, give it to benefits, win the hearts of the people of its country, and then give it to the king. In this way, his country will be the first to have internal turmoil, and in time it will become a subsidiary of the Western Tang Dynasty. My father has been worried about the business of the Western Tang Dynasty for many years, and he wants to teach the people that I am born to be useful. If the people of the Western Tang Dynasty can be self-reliant and self-sufficient, the country should be supplemented by policies, rather than increasing taxes, and fearing that the people will strengthen the country and chaos, which is a fallacy. If the people can be self-sufficient, enjoy prosperity and prosperity, and live and work in peace and contentment, they will only be grateful to the country, and the royal family will be respected and admired, how can they rebel and rebel? For example, in the past, although the strong Qin could dominate the world, the first emperor wanted to use the power of one person to be the sole emperor and noble, and make the people of the world submit. Shun'er, you should take this as a warning, and don't repeat the mistakes of the past! ”
As a person of later generations, Wen Han has experienced decades of turbulent military career, and has long understood the causes of the replacement of previous dynasties and the prosperity and decline of the country. Wen Shun's eyes lit up, as if he suddenly opened up, the truth of his father's words was much more incisive than what he had learned for many years, it can be said to be all-encompassing, and the way to govern the country and prosper is deeply hidden. Wen Han saw that Wen Shun seemed to have comprehended, and the faint smile on his face was even brighter. Suddenly, Wen Shun's spirit was shocked, and his admiration for his father was like a surging river, and he responded attentively.
"Father's teachings, children must think twice and reflect on themselves!"
"Good! You can comprehend that this truth cannot be understood for a moment, and it can be seen that you have listened to it in your heart. It is very gratifying to be a father. ”
Wen Han bowed slightly, and suddenly his words changed, his face was calm, and he said to Wen Shun.
"Military affairs and state affairs, this is the end. Now, the father wants to discuss family matters with you. ”
Wen Shun's face was shocked, and he thought that Wen Han's condition was aggravated, and he wanted to make a will with him as soon as possible, but his complexion suddenly changed greatly, like a thunderbolt from the sky. Who knew that Wen Han said so.
"Shun'er, do you remember that your father mentioned to you about marrying a wife before?"
When Wen Shun heard this, his heart was let go, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But soon Wen Shun became bitter in his heart again, and now his mind was almost in military affairs and state affairs, where did he ever think about marrying a wife and starting a family. What's more, his mother has just died, according to the etiquette law, Wen Shun must mourn for three years, and he must not marry a wife, otherwise he will violate the etiquette system. Wen Shun then said it. Wen Han listened to it, smiled faintly, and said the Tao.
"It's out of the way. Lone early consulted with the prime minister, and the situation was special. In the near future, the Western Tang Dynasty and the Great Wei Dynasty will raise a large army, and you are the only son alone. According to the etiquette, as long as you are alone with an edict to teach you to be filial piety and loyalty, you can get married. What's more, your mother has been looking forward to your early marriage for many years, and when the spirit of heaven learns of this, she will only be relieved, and will never blame you. ”
Wen Han's eyes shimmered, and he looked at Wen Shun tightly, with an undoubted look on his face. Wen Shun's face was bitter, but he replied.
"But the child doesn't have a sweetheart, so he rushed to get married, but he was afraid that he would delay others."
"Oh? Really? As a father, I still remember that when you were young, you repeatedly said that you would not marry your little sister Wang. Now your little sister Wang is in the year of marriage. In this day, he discussed this matter with the prince's servant for his father. The prince's servant was overjoyed, so he waited for his father to send a matchmaker to propose marriage. The prince's servant was loyal to the Western Tang Dynasty, worked diligently for many years, and was an important minister of the state. If the two families can get married, it will not only be a blessing for the country, but also not fulfill your childhood wish!? ”
As soon as Wen Han's words came out, Wen Shun couldn't help but think of his childhood past. And the little sister Wang in Wen Han's mouth is the daughter of the servant Wang Lang, Wang Yuanji. I think that Wen Shun's love was at the beginning of his life, and he and Wang Yuanji were childhood sweethearts. The two are young, but they are both prodigies with outstanding wisdom and precocious minds, and they suddenly have a good feeling. Wen Shun even made an oath to Wang Yuanji that she would not marry.
At that time, Wang Yuanji was only eleven years old, but she was already a beautiful embryo, she often loved to wear goose yellow clothes, long clothes fluttering, ice muscles and jade bones, blowing bullets can be broken, beautiful black hair, delicate and delicate facial features, still and moving, all have intoxicating beauty.
At that time, Wen Shun was fourteen years old, unpolished, empty-eyed, unruly, talking with Wang Yuanji all day long, talking about the things of the world, and even more ambitious, when he grew up, he must lay the foundation for his father and benefit the people of the world.
And four or five years later, Qianghu rebelled. Wen Shun took the initiative to ask for help, and began his military career. In the past few years, he has been on an expedition with the army to the east and west, and there has been almost no leisure since then. Wen Shun was ambitious at a young age and worked hard, but the matter of his children was gradually forgotten. However, Wang Yuanji's goose-yellow figure often appears whenever Wen Shun is sad and depressed.
Thinking of Wang Yuanji, Wen Shun unconsciously felt a warm current in his heart, like a child who was said to be thinking about the center, he turned around his head, and the prophecy was rested. In the end, under Wen Han's scorching eyes, Wen Shun looked at the resolute and somewhat kind face that had been devastated by the wind and frost of the years, and his heart trembled, and he said.
"It's all old. How does my father remember? ”
"Huh. Back then, you chatted with your mother from time to time. But thou hast not thou knowest that thy queen mother rejoiced, and murmured in her father's ear day and night. How can a father not remember? ”
Wen Han's eyes lit up, Wen Shun's expression changed, Wen Han could see that his son was still devoted to Wang Yuanji, after many years, Wen Shun still had this heart, which did not mean that he must be sincere to Wang Yuanji. Wen Shun heard that Wen Han was making fun of him, and his face was red again, and he hesitated for a long time before he replied.
"Although my father and the prince made a marriage with the prince's servant. But I don't know what my little sister thinks. For so many years, if the little sister already has a sweetheart, it is difficult for the child to beat the mandarin duck? Although it is often said that marriage is the order of parents and the words of matchmaking. But husband and wife pay attention to each other, and after all, this day is still a matter of two people. If you don't treat each other sincerely, how can you grow old with your son with your son's hand? ”
Wen Shun is worthy of being Wen Han's own son, and this idea is similar to that of later generations. Wen Han listened, his face sank, and he bowed slightly.
What Shun'er said is also reasonable. So what do you think, you might as well tell us. ”
Wen Shun thought that Wen Han would drink it, but he didn't expect Wen Han to agree with his statement, and he replied with joy in his heart.
"The child has not seen the little sister for a long time, although the little sister is gentle, but she is soft and dry. Forgive the child for taking the liberty of asking his father to ask someone to tell the prince to conceal the matter. Then the child came to visit the door another day to find out the little sister's thoughts. If the little sister is interested, the child will obey his father and get married as soon as possible! ”
Wen Shun is talented and intelligent, and now he has already seen that his father intends to trick him into coming back to get married, and his uncle Xu Huang is also cooperating in this matter. However, the eldest husband was full of his word, and Wen Shun promised Xu Huang before leaving that he would respond to his father's requests. Wen Shun would not break his word, not to mention that Wen Shun was already interested in Wang Yuanji. Sure enough, when Wen Han heard that Wen Shun had agreed to this, he immediately laughed endlessly, applauded again and again, and without thinking, he followed Wen Shun's request and quickly taught the courtiers to tell Wang Lang and Wen Shun's thoughts.
That night, in the palace of the servant. Wang Lang had just come back, he was in a very good mood, and he had a few glasses of wine in the middle of the meal. Xi Bi, his old wife Li, saw that Wang Lang was in a good mood and wanted to explore the situation. Suddenly, someone hurried over and whispered in Wang Lang's ear. Wang Lang was overjoyed when he heard this, laughed again and again, and said to his wife Li.
"Haha! Our daughters are finally looking forward to wishful thinking!! ”
When Li heard this, he was surprised and delighted, and was about to ask, but Wang Lang hurriedly went out. Li Shi left a heart and made a gesture to the entourage who came to report, and the entourage also understood and rushed over with a smile. Li inquired from the entourage, and the person who came was actually a courtier in the palace of Chang'an, and immediately smiled happily, and took an unknown amount of silver taels from his sleeve and stuffed it to the entourage as a reward. Suddenly, Wang Lang's face was calm and he walked back. Seeing this, Li Shi was originally happy, and he couldn't help but pinch it, and hurriedly asked.
"Sir, what's wrong with this?"
"Huh? It's okay, it's okay! What the old man said just now, you should treat it as if you can't hear it! ”
Wang Lang looked shocked and waved his hand. It turned out that he knew his old wife's personality very well, and he usually liked to ask long and short questions, especially for his daughter's affairs, and he was even more attentive, and he would definitely get to the bottom of it and ask for clarification. Moreover, the Li family loves his daughter very much, and the king of the Western Tang Dynasty specially ordered that this matter should not be leaked, if the Li family leaked his mouth, wouldn't it be a bad thing. So, Wang Lang simply pretended not to have such a thing. But wouldn't the Li family stop so easily, so he raised his eyebrows, and said 'Wow', gritting his teeth and wanting to fight with Wang Lang endlessly. Wang Lang's face changed, and he secretly complained. Don't look at Wang Lang's extremely strict treatment of people on weekdays, as if he looks like even if the Son of Heaven violates the law, he will never be spared, he is strict with the rules, and he is not afraid of heaven and earth. But Wang Lang was only afraid of Li's old wife. At this time, Wang Lang saw that Li put on a posture that even if the world was turned upside down, he would ask a clear question. Wang Lang hurriedly pretended to hesitate and said.
"Hey! There was an accident in the Divine Barracks, and the old man urgently needed to deal with it. The king has decreed that it is forbidden to talk about anything concerning the barracks of God. Don't ask too much. The old man is about to leave! ”
Wang Lang said, without waiting for Li's answer, as if fleeing, he hurried to the outside of the mansion. Li's complexion changed, seeing that Wang Lang intended to dodge, she was so anxious that her heart burned, although she knew that Wang Lang was definitely pushing, but Wang Lang put the divine barracks out. Li did not dare to be presumptuous. Seeing that Wang Lang had already left, Li was so angry that his face turned blue and purple for a while, and said secretly.
"Old thing, after this incident, let's see how the old lady cleans you up!!"
After thinking about it for a while, Li suddenly thought of her precious daughter, who was talented and intelligent, and would definitely be able to see one or two of them, so he turned around and hurried to the west courtyard of the mansion.
The night passed. Wen Shun's idea hurt Wang Lang miserably. Wang Lang was afraid that his old wife Li would be entangled, so he did not return overnight, and went to bed in the palace that night. The next morning, at dawn, the sun was rising. In the palace of the servant, in the garden of the west courtyard, Wang Yuanji got up early and changed into a goose yellow dress, embroidered with beautiful and delicate peony patterns, which is very good-looking. But the most intoxicating of them is the beautiful woman who looks as beautiful as a flower and captivates the country. Wang Yuanji seemed to be in a good mood, and now she was in the small pavilion, and the maidservant Xiaolan was grinding ink on the stone table. Wang Yuanji's beautiful eyes like stars flowing, glowing with bursts of colored light, Qianqian like jade, white as snow, hands like snow, lightly grasping the brush, is painting. I don't know how long it took, I saw the painting, a hundred flowers and a small pavilion, isn't it the realm of this courtyard? However, in the painting, a young man is dancing with a gun and practicing martial arts, and his spirit is vibrant and lifelike. Suddenly, someone came in a hurry, and Xiaolan was afraid of disturbing Wang Yuanji's Yaxing, so she walked lightly to greet her. The man said a few words in Xiaolan's ear. Xiaolan immediately hurried back like a happy magpie. At this time, Wang Yuanji also happened to finish painting, and looked at Xiaolan tightly with a little expectation, a little nervousness, and a little shyness.
"Miss!! Sure enough, His Royal Highness the Prince has come down!! ”
