Outside Luoyang Anzhongfang, the people in a long line were receiving rations one by one. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

"Today is the big day of Wang Mai, the governor of Luoyang in the Tang Dynasty, and the king of Qin, in order to congratulate the governor Wang, specially instructed everyone to send one more cake." A big-headed soldier shouted hard at the crowd.

"Thank you King Qin, thank you to the king in charge......" The people who received the rations all bowed down to thank them.

Ma Zhou touched Wang Eryue, who was dozing next to him, with his elbow: "It's obviously an order from the head of the king, why do you want to pretend to be the order of the king of Qin?" ”

Wang Eryue woke up suddenly, and after a long while, his brain came to his senses, and he yawned a long time and explained to Ma Zhou: "Mr. said, it's not good to do too much of this kind of invitation to buy people's hearts, so I do everything in the name of King Qin." ”

Ma Zhou thought about it carefully: "Manager Wang is really thoughtful......

Wang February's looked at the team: "It's almost, just go back early today, I still have to congratulate my husband and my mother, my father is already waiting at home." ”

"Then you go back early, I'll wait until I'm done distributing the rations before leaving." Ma Zhou said.

"You're too serious......" Wang Er shook his head, "Then I'll wait for you in the house, you must arrive before dark, Mr. said that today is the Shangyuan Festival, double happiness is coming, you want to set off beautiful fireworks, you can't miss it." ”

Wang Mai was blocked at the door by Kong Yingda at this time, and Lao Kong pointed at his nose and scolded: "You know that there is a shortage of food in the city, but you waste food because of a little personal matter, it's really infuriating old man." ”

"Lao Kong, first of all, I don't agree with what you said about wasting food, what is waste, throwing it away is called waste, these grains have entered the stomachs of the people, how can it be considered waste?" Wang Mai said angrily. This guy doesn't give himself face at all, today is his wedding day, and he is in a hurry to visit the church, so he doesn't have any eyesight.

"But the lack of food in Luoyang is an indisputable fact, do you really think of yourself as the head of Luoyang? If you are given three points of color, you want to open a dye shop? Lao Kong still refused to give up.

"You think I want to be the head of Luoyang, I don't worry about others, Lao Xu is old again, you and Lao Zheng are not willing to do it, or I will put the broken hat of the head of Luoyang on Du Yan now." Wang Mai's anger also came up.

"No!" Lao Zheng, who came in a hurry, hurriedly separated the two, "Du Yan has no position, how can he be entrusted with a heavy responsibility?" ”

"Otherwise, if you find someone else, I don't want to do it anyway." Wang Mai's donkey temper also came up, "Lao Tzu's family wealth has been dispersed, I want to make the people of the whole city happy when I get married today, you all have opinions, don't do it, anyway, this manager is fake, and he has to take it down." ”

The two were embarrassed for a while when they heard this, and Zheng Cheng hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade: "Those soldiers and generals were brought out by you, you are naturally the best candidate, others have done it, it is difficult to convince the public, isn't it all good?" ”

"But this manager can't even decide on this bit of, what's the use?" Wang Mai said aggrievedly.

"Kong sacrificial wine," Lao Zheng turned to Kong Yingda and said, "You don't know, although the food is difficult now, it can still last for ten days and a half months, but our firewood is already insufficient." Zheng Ying is now back in employment, and has been the long history of the Luoyang Provisional Government, in charge of civil affairs and military supplies in the city, and knows the current situation in Luoyang well.

Wang Mai never expected that the first problem that bothered him would be the fuel problem. The people of Luoyang mostly use wood to make fire, firewood is very occupied, and ordinary people can store it for three or four days, but after the accident at the east gate of the Yuan Ri, Wang Shichong basically closed all the gates of Guocheng, and it has been half a month.

Once Luoyang ran out of fuel, everyone was afraid that they would have to eat raw grains, so in order to prevent this from happening, they began to make the grain into dry food and store it in advance.

Kong Yingda's face turned red and white for a while when he heard this, and then he knew that he was reckless, but he apologized to Wang Mai very shamefully.

Wang Mai waved his hand: "Hurry up, I'm going to worship the church, the auspicious time is almost over." As soon as he stepped out of the door, he felt a trip under his feet and fell to the ground with a "plop". This damn groom's robe...... Wang Mai scolded his mother in pain.

The two old men hurriedly helped him up, one left and one right, and trotted him to the front yard.

Rou Niang stood in the lobby in gorgeous clothes, holding Luo Fan with sweat in her hands, this auspicious time has arrived, why hasn't Lang Jun come yet.

The visiting guests also looked at the door, not knowing what was going on.

"Coming, coming, coming......" Wang Mai ran into the hall panting with his hat in his hand, "I'm not late, am I?" ”

"No, no, no......," everyone said in unison.

The main wedding is Xu Wenyuan, because Wang Mai's grandparents were not present, Lao Xu also played the role of a parent, and when he bowed to the high hall for the second time, he twisted his mouth of white beard and looked proudly at the two of them saluting him, and the angry Wang Mai gritted his teeth and secretly scolded this old boy for taking advantage of others at such an old age.

"Husband and wife worship ......"

Wang Mai turned around and looked at the bride in front of her, Rou Niang painted a little light makeup today, revealing a pair of eyes that Luo Fan was really bright like stars, but why was there anger burning in these eyes? Wang Mai secretly said that it was not good, and he was angry that he was late for his wedding.

After the worship, a few boys and girls threw grains around them, which means that they were born early.

"Lady......" Wang Mai walked to Rou Niang with a pair of scissors, and Rou Niang turned her head and ignored him. Wang Mai had no choice but to carefully cut a bunch of hair on one of her long hairs and handed it to her.

Rou Niang took the scissors, and weighed his neck a few times with an unkind face, Wang Mai swallowed a mouthful of saliva, this person didn't want to murder his husband, right? Fortunately, Rou Niang just cut a bunch of hair on the back of his neck.

Seeing her tie up her two strands of hair and put them in the bag, Wang Mai breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Song Laosan, who was beside him, took a bow and arrow and handed it to Wang Mai's hand, asking him to perform the gift of three arrows.

"Is this bow fine?" Wang Mai asked in a low voice.

"Don't worry, this is definitely a good bow, three stones heavy, and the Mingguang armor can shoot through ......," Song Laosan explained.

"......" Wang Mai was speechless for a while, "Old Song, you also come to pit me...... "The hard bow of the three stones is almost four hundred catties, and ten healthy ones can't pull it away, not to mention that they are still injured."

"What about teasing you......" Song Laosan patted him on the shoulder, couldn't hold it back anymore, and laughed out loud.

"Hahaha......" The guests also laughed out loud when they heard this.

Wang Mai blushed and shot three arrows outside, one arrow shot the sky, two arrows shot the sky, and three arrows set the difference, and then he pulled Rou Niang into the cave room.

"Lady......" Wang Mai took Rou Niang's hands, "I'm sorry, there are too many things in Luoyang, I was even late for the wedding......" As he was talking, he suddenly saw a tear falling on the back of his hand, and he was suddenly at a loss, "Don't cry, it's me who is wrong today......"

"The slave family is fine...... Rou Niang wiped the tears on her face and suddenly smiled, "The slave family is not angry, but I didn't expect to meet a good husband like Lang Jun in this life." ”

"Huh?" Wang Mai scratched his head, "Where am I doing, the wedding was so hasty, I feel ashamed of you." ”

"Don't be hasty...... Rou Niang shook her head, "Everyone in Luoyang congratulates us, this is a blessing that the slave family has cultivated for several generations." ”

Wang Mai touched Rou Niang's lower abdomen: "I have thought of the names of our children, since we are married in Luoyang City, the boy will be called Wang Luocheng, and the girl will be called Wang Luoshui......"

"Hmm......" Rou Niang lowered her head and agreed softly.

The two were talking about love, and the sky was getting dark, Wang Mai lit the oil lamp, and led Rou Niang out of the house: "I have a gift for you......"

......In front of a bright moon hanging in the sky, a green firework bloomed.

"Ah......" Rou Niang covered her mouth and opened her eyes wide, looking at this scene incredulously.

"Because the time is still short, I only made this kind of green ......" Wang Mai didn't finish speaking, and he felt that he was being hugged tightly.

The fireworks went off for a quarter of an hour before they stopped, and by this time the house was already full of guests, the house could not be opened, and even the courtyard was full of tables, and the winery took out all the wine in stock to entertain the guests. The dishes on the table were also very rich, and after many days of hard work, everyone finally drank them openly, and dozens of sheep alone were killed, and not even the soldiers received a small piece of mutton.

Wang Mai toasted a circle of wine, already a little swaying, and finally came to a table in the corner of the courtyard, but the faces of the people at this table were different from other tables, they all had a crying expression, and they didn't get up when they saw Wang Mai coming.

"Bang" Liu Da put the wine jar for toasting on the table, and everyone at the table was suddenly shocked.

"Thank you very much for enjoying the light and participating in the wedding banquet below." Wang Mai raised the wine glass in his hand.

Everyone looked at Liu Da, who had a fierce look on his face, and had no choice but to raise the cup in his hand to toast Wang Mai.

"Manager Wang, our granaries are open to your army, when can you let me go out?" A fat, ball-like middle-aged man asked cautiously.

"After drinking this meal, you can leave...... Wang Mai said with a smile.

"That's very good...... everyone felt a lot more relieved when they heard this.

"Then our food ......," a small voice reached the ears of the two.

"Grain?" Wang Mai turned his head and looked at Liu Da, "What grain?" ”

Liu Da shook his head: "I don't know." "These profiteers really want money and don't want to die, and they dare to ask about food just after they were released.

Everyone looked at each other, they all sighed, and asked what else, it would be good to save a life.

"Oh......" Wang Mai patted his head, "I remember." ”

"Really?" Everyone's eyes lit up.

"Liu Da, bring a pen and paper to ......," Wang Mai turned his head and said.

After a while, everyone had an extra IOU in their hands, and the payment was made by Li Shimin, the king of Qin of the Tang Dynasty.

"I'm doing things for King Qin, and when he enters Luoyang, you just ask him for an account."
