Wei Xi found that it was extremely troublesome to marry a princess of the Tang Dynasty, especially if she wanted to marry a favored princess, there was a whole set of processes that needed to be completed, and she couldn't be sloppy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

It is divided into six steps: Nacai (the two sides meet), asking for the name (asking the girl's name for divination), Naji (informing the other party of the divination result), Nazheng (giving a dowry gift), asking for a date (setting a date), and welcoming in person.

At the beginning of Nacai, the woman's parents sent Wang Benli, a waiter from the court's Ministry of Rites, who was the emperor's favorite minister, and the man's parent, Wei Shiqi, personally went out.

The two were promoted because of this, and Wang Benli turned out to be not a waiter in the Ministry of Rites. Wei Shiwei gave the title (fictitious title) of the general of the right guard of the inspection school and the secretary of the military department of the inspection school, and both of them benefited from this.

Wang Benli can't get him promoted to the rank of servant according to his resume, and although Wei Zhiqi is a virtual general, once there is a vacancy, the imperial court often gives priority to him to make up for the vacancy.

The name of the general is honorable, and how many generals are stuck in the first rank of "general" and cannot become a general.

The woman was really arrogant, and the place where she met the man was placed in the lobby of the Ministry of Rites, and the guests and hosts sat down to discuss.

The heavenly family has no selfish affairs, not for public and private use, and the imperial history does not dare to speak, even if it is iron-clad Di Renjie, he is silent.

The geese are migratory birds, migrating north and south with climate change and have a fixed mate, one dies, and the other no longer chooses a mate. The ancients believed that the wild goose from the south to the north was in line with yin and yang, the spouse was fixed and in line with the righteous ceremony, and the marriage was based on the wild goose, which symbolized the harmony of yin and yang, and also symbolized the loyalty and single-mindedness of the bride. Remember, it must be a live goose, and it must be released afterwards, otherwise it will be unlucky.

Of course, even in ancient times, geese were not easy to get, but the geese that princesses needed to get married had problems with the wood, and they were all strong geese.

When the two sides talked about the situation of the newcomer, it was almost Wang Benli who asked, and Wei waited for the price to answer!

Wang Benli asked very carefully, because he was going back to report to the Emperor and Queen of Heaven!

Hearing that Wei Xi had prepared 800,000 yuan of goods for the marriage, and the dowry gift alone was 10,000 taels of gold, setting a record for the gift, Wang Benli showed a satisfied smile and said: "At the beginning, the Tubo Songtsan cadres hired Princess Wencheng as a dowry of 5,000 taels of gold, and it is not worth mentioning the people who are outside!" ”

Wei Zhibei echoed: "Etiquette is indispensable for the princess. ”

Then there is the check of the family situation of both parties, including family history, relatives, personal situation, family, etc.

Here you can see the benefits of Wei Xi's change of surname to the Wei family, full of famous ancestral families, and the princess can match!

Otherwise, say that you are from a background in selling medicine and want to marry a princess?

Dream on you! In the Tang Dynasty, which valued the clan lineage, such a background was absolutely not expected in the Tang Dynasty! (After the Anshi Rebellion, the power of the imperial court declined, and it was no longer possible to talk about etiquette as before)

In a word, it is even more difficult to be the son-in-law of the Empress of the Ages.

Wu Zetian was born in a merchant family, and he attaches more importance to his background, even if Wei Xi has made a great contribution to her, no background, no Liuniang.

Wang Benli also focused on inspecting the building of Wei Xi's new home, and the woman specially sent someone to measure it, which is the legendary "right door"!

A household pair, is embedded in the lintel of the hexagonal log, commonly known as the household pair, Wei Xi for the three officials, can be loaded with four household pairs, and the lintel has two household pairs, corresponding to the five to seven officials, if there is no household pair, you don't want to marry the princess!

There are also particulars in front of the door, officials pay attention to the door is higher than the road, there must be steps in front of the door, according to the system, the sixth and seventh grade officials shall not be higher than the second level, the fifth grade official step shall not be higher than the third level, the fourth grade official shall not be higher than the fourth level, and the third grade official is Wei Xi shall not be higher than the fifth level.

Even if it is a nobleman, there are at most eight levels, and the ninth level is for the emperor, and if anyone does nine or more steps in their private house, then they will be full of copies.

Mendang, is the opposite of the entrance of the traditional building of the Han nationality and placed a pair of flat stone drums (because the drum sounds, as strong as thunder, the ancients believed that it can avoid ghosts and respect), its size is proportional to the size of the official's official position.

The right person is a good match, and there is no connotation, how can you marry a princess!

Wei Xi is all glamorous, the exploits are boarded, Dafei Sichuan beheaded 350,000 Tubo, sealed Dafei Sichuan, Huo Hussar did not reach it, the good generals of the ancients, made meritorious contributions, and there were few winners!

There is no shortage of literary talent, and the poems he wrote are enough to be recited through the ages.

Both civil and military, try to see who is the opponent in the DPRK and China!

The official title is better than the vast majority of wealthy families in the world, and how many people can become a general at the age of twenty-five?

The key is that his general was earned by him with his military exploits, and he deserves his name, and both men and women are full of pride, and the world has nothing to say, which is also where the queen of heaven is satisfied.

Wei Xi's family background is illustrious, the ancestor is the son of Han Xin, one of the founding generals of the early Han Dynasty (not to say Han Xin, Han Xin's rebellion has not been rehabilitated), Wei was in the rising stage of strength in the Tang Dynasty, and married the royal family, not humiliated.

The personal situation is that Wei Xi is nearly twenty-five years old this year, and the princess is nearly fifteen years old, a difference of ten years, and it is not an exaggeration to be happy with each other. (The age of Tang Nu's marriage is thirteen years old, and Princess Taiping is a little late)

His family situation gives "both parents are dead", so that the princess does not have to wait for Aunt Feng (in-laws) to trouble.

This is the persuasion of Luoyang Laojun Guan Xuanqing Daoist, and after discussing with the Wei family, Wei Xi's father hung on the name of a clansman who died early in the Wei family (those who lived less than fifty years old died young), and no longer used the name of his father "Feng Dabao".

Feng Dabao's name didn't appear at all, it's good that he didn't appear, if Wei Xi's biological father is "Feng Dabao", a person who sells medicine in the rivers and lakes, then, the heavenly family can't afford to lose this face, and the result is that the queen of heaven sent someone to give Feng Dabao to commit suicide!

In fact, the men sent by the Queen of Heaven have already set off......

In order to prepare for Wei Xi's marriage, Daoist Xuanqing left from Luoyang to Chang'an and lived in his house.

His arrival was extremely necessary, because he had to help Wei Xi divination.

The heavenly family is indeed arrogant, the man asks the woman's girl's name and birthday, and the woman also asks the man's name and birthday.

The man has a Xuanqing divination, and the woman is Yuan Keshi's divination to see if they are compatible.

When the man and woman met for the second time and showed the results of the divination of both sides, they did not pass the anger beforehand, and they were the same, and it was the same eight words, which made Wang Benli and Wei Zhiqi laugh.

Which eight words?

Qin Se and Ming, a match made in heaven!

This matter was returned to the Emperor and Queen of Heaven by Wang Benli, and the two saints were also very happy!

The emperor said happily: "At the beginning, Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang searched for the auspicious land for ten thousand years, Li Chunfeng searched for seven hundred and forty-nine days, and buried a copper coin in the dragon cave of Jidi, and Yuan Tiangang also searched for seven hundred and forty-nine days, found a place, put down a silver hairpin on his head and inserted it, and there was a division to find the trace, dig it out and take a look, Yuan Tiangang's silver hairpin was inserted in the square hole of the copper coin!" ”

The queen of heaven also said happily: "There are two masters in the front, and there are two disciples in the back (Xuanqing is Li Chunfeng's little apprentice, and Yuan Keshi is Yuan Tiangang's son) The same divination results, what else do I have to worry about with the emperor!" ”

Wang Benli immediately patted his ass and said: "Congratulations to the emperor and queen for getting this good son-in-law, and the princess has to meet a lover!" ”

……

In this way, the hardware and software are complete, everything can stand the test, and the princess's marriage is officially launched.

The emperor issued an edict, and the right Xiao cavalry guard general Wei Xishang Taiping Princess, added the title of Captain of the Horse, and added more than 300 households, and actually awarded the Ministry of Industry Shangshu and Dengzhou Thorn History.

The ministers all knew that Princess Taiping was noble, but they didn't expect that the grace was particularly heavy, and the official position of the concubine was extremely unusual.

Normally, after the concubine marries the princess, he will immediately add the official title of "three-rank foreign official".

Sanpin, in the Tang Dynasty was a very high rank, and the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty was only a Sanpin official, for example, it is common to see "Tongzhongshu Menxia Sanpin",

According to the practice of the Tang Dynasty, unless a great merit has been made, the first and second rank of high officials will not be easily awarded to officials, so it can be said that the third rank of the official is already the highest official rank in the Tang Dynasty.

However, the so-called "foreign officials" in the Tang Dynasty referred to officials other than the original vacancy, that is, officials outside the official establishment, which was just a fictitious title outside the establishment, not a formal official position.

Wei Xi Jiaduo's official positions are all granted, and the six Shangshu are already the three grades of civil and official, and he is young, and he has achieved the three grades of civil and military officials, which is really an anomaly.

But he is nothing compared to Princess Taiping's encounter. (To be continued.) )
