Chapter Thirty-Nine: Fate is wonderful
Between the foothills of the stretching mountains, a deep green mixed with dry yellow, among the undulating mountains, the small camp is hunting with flags, the boring autumn rain has passed more than ten days, the water mist of the Yellow River rushing from the north comes, the mountains are shrouded in mist. In such weather, several fast horses galloped on the mountain road, entering and exiting the stockade.
A few fast horses came in, all of them were fur jackets and fur hats, some walked quickly to the stockade, and the rest of the people were chatting with the guards guarding the village, and the words were mostly Xiongnu language.
ββ¦β¦ The capital division of the Han people in the south made a disturbance, and their court killed many people...... Heads can be stacked so high. The man gestured exaggeratedly to the flagpole.
"It's a terrible kill...... The Han emperor doesn't care? β
"What's the matter..... it's a big official who holds the authority, and the emperor is still a child, so tall." He measured his thigh again and nodded earnestly.
β¦β¦
Above the speak, on the terrace of Dazhai, a man wearing a leather jacket and wearing luxurious ornaments sat under the banner of the Huns, looking at the mountains surrounded by him, his name was Luan Ti Yufuluo, the right virtuous king of the Southern Huns, since Qiangqu was stabbed to death last year, the people in the clan did not support him, but supported the name of the Marquis of Xubu Bone to become the new Shan Yu.
He and his son Liu Bao led a crowd to Han to complain to Emperor Liu Hong, asking for reinforcements to help him regain Shan Yu's throne, but Liu Hong fell seriously ill and died, and Yu Fuluo had to stay in the Central Plains to wait for the new emperor to summon him.
In the early autumn, a piece of good news came from the Southern Xiongnu, the new Shan Yu Xubu Gudu Marquis had a recurrence of arrow sores and died in a few days, and now Shan Yu's position was vacant, which was exactly what he wanted.
"The Han people are messed up...... Yu Fuluo smashed his fist into the palm of his hand, and then his palm clenched fiercely, pinching and sweating.
In such a chaotic time, he wanted to take this opportunity to plunder, and then return to the Southern Xiongnu to buy the tribesmen and become a new Danyu, as long as the soldiers and horses of various tribes were gathered, and they were not afraid of the Han retaliation, and it was even possible to compete with the Western Xiongnu, and then merge to reproduce the prosperity of the Xiongnu.
Yu Fuluo thought a little far, and then summoned his son Liu Bao to gather more than 1,000 Hun cavalry in the village and leave this cage that insulted him.
β¦β¦β¦.
In the south, a welcoming team blew and beat from the outside into the city, the soldiers at the city gate quietly received the happy money handed over, and also knew that this was the son-in-law of the great Confucian Cai Yong to greet the relatives, since it would not be too difficult, that is, waved his hand and let him go, the tall head was on the horse, a big red, and the young man embroidered with cloud texture on the silk arched his hand left and right.
Soon, a lively procession entered the city.
On the other side, Cai's mansion is colorful, and the atmosphere at this time is luxurious and extravagant, just like Cai Yong's obsession with books, he also broke a lot of money, and the guests walked on the red carpet when they entered the door, and the festive paper-cuts and lanterns were hung all over the small courtyard, and the housekeepers who received the name cards at the door were called one by one.
"Situ Huangwan ......"
"Sikong Yang Biao......"
"Zhou Bi... Wu Qiong... Ho Hao... Dong Zhuo... Oops... Master Dong entered the mansionβ" The voice suddenly rose at the door.
The entire Cai Mansion began to be in an uproar... Boils... Then he calmed down and looked at the huge figure with a lion's face and a broad nose and a tall and heavy body at the door, striding in with Lu Bu holding a halberd. Cai Yong, who was talking and laughing, hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "I don't know if the master is coming, forgive your sins." β
"No, hurry up and start the feast, I'm very hungry." Dong Zhuo walked straight past the old man, knelt down at the top and sat down, closed his eyes and didn't speak, and the officials around him, large and small, whispered, but they dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak.
I don't know when, but the joy of the blowing is getting closer, and the voices of people cheer outside, "It's coming, it's coming." "What a handsome bridegroom!" "Go in and tell Cai Shizhong that the Wei family is here."
In the courtyard, the elders of the Cai family trembled and pulled Cai Yong, "It's time for the bride to come out...... Don't miss out on the auspicious day. β
Cai Yong nodded, and threw his hand towards the most powerful figure sitting there with a big thorn above, over there, waving his hand urgingly, Cai Yong straightened up gratefully, and hurriedly asked the maid to go to the backyard.
At the gate of the courtyard, the white horse stopped, and a young man in a red moire collared robe came to the door holding a bronze goose and stepped forward to present it, which was a salute to show his trust and respect for the bride in the future.
Soon after Cai Yong received the gift, a slender figure was supported by two maids, dressed in red satin embroidered gold patterns, wide sleeves and narrow waist, red long skirt hanging down the lower body, and the tip of the little toes kicked out the skirt from time to time, coming slowly, the bead curtain jade crown on the bun gently shook in front of the pretty face, stay closer, behind the bead curtain, Ruyu skin is ruddy, just hanging low, so that people can not see too clearly.
Over there, the groom glanced at it, and perhaps felt that it was not good to look straight like this, so he lowered his head. But Dong Zhuo on the seat had round eyes, his fingers twisted the tips of his beard, and his body moved, as if he wanted to get up. Here, Cai Yong hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his hand: "How can the noble status of the Taishi worry about the marriage of the little girl." β
"Defeated." When Dong Zhuo heard this, he realized that there were still many guests around him, so he had to sit down again. Then there was a set of complicated etiquette, and it had been an hour since the tossing and turning, and finally the welcoming team had just set off.
The Wei family is a family in Hedong, but the road is far away, obviously not going on for half a month, and there is a Zhuangzi outside the city by the Yellow River.
**********************************************
The weather is cool in autumn.
On a Zhuangzi dozens of miles away from Heyang, the corpse holding the weapon was broken in front of the courtyard gate, and the scarlet and dazzling colors spread out, and there was a woman's cry under the corridor, and more than a dozen figures of men, women, and children stood there hanging their heads, and the bones with flesh and silk fell into sight.
In front of them, the bald man was gnawing on the whole chicken, and a big knife was leaning against the pillar, "...... Let's come over and rob some rations, we don't want to kill people, you have to resist, now it's okay, there are ten nursing homes when you die, right? Don't feel distressed? β
"Your family is the most solid family within a radius of 100 miles, if you put it in the yellow scarf, you can even gnaw the wood at home, we want you 800 people, and the rations for a few days are not much, right?"
Gao Sheng chewed the fat and chattered endlessly with the other party, counting down, and the other party's head of the family had to whisper Ai Ai's response. Most of the family's livestock were slaughtered and roasted, and everyone sat here and there, eating cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks with a bloody mouth. In the distance, by a rockery pool, Gongsun Zhi handed a chicken leg to the boy in ragged clothes opposite.
The other party was timid and didn't dare to pick up, his parents were probably the house slaves of this Zhuangzi, and they were also afraid to stand not far away, looking at their children worriedly.
When the light of day was setting in the west, the scouts who were guarding outside came back and said that the officers and soldiers of Heyang had arrived in this direction, and at this time Gongsun Zhi and his party got on their horses and left. Gao Sheng looked back with some reluctance, "Chief, there are so many ...... Alas, it should be distributed to the people here. β
"If you give it to them, they won't dare to ask for it." Gongsun shook his whip, "Give it to them, it will harm them, and they will be arrested as thieves, but it doesn't matter anymore, there are not many peaceful days left for everyone." β
Gao Sheng next to him seems to understand whether he understands or not.
It's a pity that only Gongsun Zhi understands what he said.
"Cross the Yellow River......" He looked into the distance, as if faintly hearing the roar of the mighty river.
β¦β¦
In the blink of an eye, a Zhuangzi on the south bank of the Yellow River ushered in a lively scene.
In the distance, the procession of welcoming relatives had already appeared on the road in front of Weizhuang, and the familiar neighbors helped to decorate the Zhuangzi, and the nearby gentry and scribes all gathered together to congratulate them.
"..... daughter of Confucianism... What a blessing. β
"I heard that the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting ..... a book heirloom... Brother Wei really found a good in-law. β
ββ¦β¦ The door is right, this kiss is really wonderful! β
The old man standing at the gate of the courtyard, dressed in a festive manner, listened to the congratulatory messages of others and friends, stroked his beard and smiled, looked at the team from afar, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Father." The team stopped, on horseback, Wei Zhongdao turned over, led the bride in the sedan chair to the old man who greeted the courtyard door, with a smile on his face that couldn't stop.
The old man nodded, and took a glass of wine from others, "Drink the welcome wine first, and then perform the Jiaozi ceremony." β
There were people around who shouted loudly.
"In my opinion, Brother Wei can't wait to give his daughter-in-law wine."
When the girl with the beaded curtain heard this, the moon eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and in the distant sunlight, the lively crowd heard the roar of horses' hooves, which was the sound of booming and shaking the ground.
The old man of the Wei family was holding the wine above his head, his eyes looked over, the woman in the red skirt and Wei Zhongdao also looked back, and the people around him also heard the sound and looked over.
A team of horses of unknown origin galloped on the road outside Zhuangzi, coming this way, and in the skylight, there seemed to be a cold light reflecting it, and then ..... flew over.
Whoosh β
The wine glass in the old man's hand burst open, and the moment the wine spilled, the arrow thrust into the door, and the end of the feather arrow was buzzing and trembling.
The Law of Sighs β
The reins tightened violently, and the horse neighed and Naruto stood up, and on the horse's back, the big gun was raised.
PS: It's late, I'm not satisfied with today's chapter, because it's too late to time and thinking, because the wedding of the Han Dynasty doesn't understand at all, so some of them are looking up information, and some are imagined by Chunfeng.
