Speaking of which, Guo Ye has been in Goguryeo for half a year, and he also has an understanding of Goguryeo's wedding customs.

In Goguryeo, there was no such thing as a bride price. Unlike the Chinese, there is no such thing as a parent's order or a matchmaker's words. When men and women are happy, they get married directly, and the son-in-law gives the old man a pot of wine and a few pieces of meat, even if he has fulfilled the responsibility of half a son. If the son-in-law gives too much, the father-in-law's family will be despised by the township, regarded as a greedy person, and think that this behavior is not to marry a daughter but to sell a daughter.

After listening to Gao Xinqun's words today, Guo Ye learned that not only did the Goguryeo people have different customs from China before marriage, but they also married casually. This married life is even more free to come and go. It was an eye-opener for Guo Ye. If you think about it carefully, it is not surprising that since the man has not paid anything for the woman, he is not qualified to ask the woman to be three chastity and nine spirits. Think of a group of big girls and little daughters-in-law, who were taught the way of sexual spirituality by the head of the Five Spirits, and let Jun take what they wanted, Guo Ye and the others couldn't help but boil their blood, and their hearts yearned for it.

The four of them didn't walk a few steps out of the pavilion when they were stopped by a person, who was Gao Xinqun.

The eldest grandson laughed and said, "Lord Gao, it's interesting enough, is this a special place to greet us?" You were really well received. ”

Gao Xinqun said: "I'm still afraid that I won't be able to catch up, but fortunately you just went out." I'm here to tell you that the Dharma meeting of the Five Spirits Dao Masters has changed places. Today, it was the King of Rongliu County who personally invited the Five Spirits Dao Chief, so this festival was changed to the palace of the King of Rongliu County. Come with me, all of you. ”

Guo Ye and others are indispensable, anyway, everyone is here for the Goguryeo beauties, and it doesn't matter where it is held. However, it is incomprehensible that the king of Rongliu County and his father, the king of Yingyang, are already terminally ill at this time, and he still has the heart to preside over such a party. This is no longer a simple heavy color and light friends, what is this? Heavy color and light dad!

At this time, the palace of Rongliu County is full of lights, and it is very lively. From time to time, high-ranking officials and nobles, phoenixes, dragons and grandchildren come in and out. Led by a group of high hearts, no one stopped them at all. Guo Ye and others, twisted and turned, and were introduced into a very large courtyard. In the courtyard, the red felt is paved with trees, and the big lanterns are hung all around, illuminating the whole courtyard as bright as day. Bursts of sandalwood are smoky, and it really has a bit of a fairyland on earth.

Guo Ye sighed in his heart, this king of Rongliu County is really willing to pay his blood. The textile goods of this year can be used directly for money. The red felt was spread all over the courtyard, and the red felt alone could not be brought down without one or two thousand yuan of money. Although Goguryeo can compete with the Tang Dynasty militarily, it is far behind economically. Thinking about Gao Xinde's hard work for most of his life, he only saved 100,000 yuan, how could the family property of this Rongliu County Wang not exceed one million yuan. For a puja, it cost twenty or thirty thousand, which is really a hemorrhage. What is he trying to do?

Sun Zishan was also quite excited when he saw the red felt paving the ground, this was a luxurious scene that had never been seen in Chang'an City, and he exclaimed excitedly: "The red felt paving the ground, it seems that the king of Rongliu County is very well prepared, do you want to arrange for us to fight in the field in a while?" ”

Turtledove and Eldest Sun Shi were frightened by his speculation, although these two are also lustful, but in front of the public, in front of everyone, they are turning clouds and rain with beautiful women, and they really can't wipe their face.

People came and went in the compound, and Gao Xinqun introduced Guo Ye one by one. This is Gao Huimin, a certain general, this is Gao Lifan, a certain doctor, this is Gao Zhaoche, a certain city lord, this is Gao Ying, and this is Gao Dazhou...... Guo Ye bowed his hand again and again, saying auspicious words. After a while, I couldn't remember who was who. only remembers that Gao Xinqun is high and that is high, "high and high", Guo Ye suspects that Gao Xinqun has changed careers to sell cakes.

Guo Ye took a moment to ask, "Brother Gao, why are all these people who came today with the surname Gao?" Don't you Goguryeo officials have any other surnames? ”

Gao Xinqun said: "Our Goguryeo's official election system is different from your Tang Dynasty, and your Tang Dynasty is a scholar of the imperial examination. Our Goguryeo's official election system is based on your Wei and Jin Dynasty's nine-rank Zhongzheng system, and people who are not from a big family cannot be officials. Therefore, most of the officials in the DPRK and China have the surname Gao or Yuan, and there are other small surnames, but less than 20%. ”

"Then why are all the people who came today with the surname Gao?"

Gao Xinqun smiled bitterly and said: "Now that the King of Yingyang is seriously ill, whether this throne will be passed on to the King of Rongliu County or Mo Lizhiyuan Gai Suwen has not yet been decided." The king of Rongliu County and Mo Lizhi are already on the same page, so they are close to fire. The officials of the DPRK and China have to stand in line, the support of the surname Yuan is not to leave the branch, our surname Gao supports the king of Rongliu County, and the other small surnames do not dare to spread this muddy water and remain neutral. Therefore, the banquet of the king of Rongliu County only comes with the surname Gao. ”

This high-minded group really knows everything and says everything.

Guo Ye saw what he said happily, and said: "Senior brother, there is something that Guo doesn't know whether to ask or not. ”

Gao Xinqun's chest snapped, and said: "You asked me to ask, I am a famous bag in the imperial court." You asked me about Datang, and I knew half of it. You asked me about Goguryeo, and I knew everything. If you don't understand something, just ask, in my place, there is no such thing as 'shouldn't ask'! ”

Guo Yesin said I'm sorry, who asked you about Datang. Nima knows half of it, and the co-author is half of what you know, and what you don't know is the other half. Gao Xinqun, this kid can really brag.

Guo Ye thought so, but his face was filled with a respectful smile, and said, "Then I really asked, and asked the senior brother to solve his doubts." It is said that your surname is Gao, so you should pass the throne to his son Gao Jianwu, the king of Rongliu County. There is a way that the father dies and the son succeeds, so it is not the turn of the surname Yuan. How do you think of the meaning of your ministers in the Goguryeo court, you all think it is acceptable to the king of Rongliu and Mo Lizhi who will inherit the throne. It's really hard for Guo to understand. ”

Gao Xinqun explained: "We Goguryeo people are actually Hao people. The so-called Hui people are the combined name of the Hui people and the Hui people. The Hao clan is dominated by the Gao clan, and the Hui clan is respected by the Yuan clan. When the two clans were merged, there was a dispute over who should be the main one. Later, it was agreed that the Gao generation would be the king, and the Yuan generation would be the prime minister. It is said that there is one king and one prime minister, which is different from your emperor and prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, but in fact, the difference in power is not very big. Now the King of Infant Yang likes Mo Lizhi and wants to give up the throne to the Yuan family. It's just that the positions of the two clans have been reversed, and most of the courtiers actually have no position, but our Gao clan people are not very willing, but this is not a matter of life and death. ”

It turns out that this is the case, and it seems that Goguryeo is not a country in the real sense at this time, and it is a bit of a tribal alliance. Needless to say, those officials who are not surnamed Gao Yuan may be the leaders of some small tribes.

"The king of Rongliu County...... Arrive! ”

A loud voice crossed the night sky, and a man in his fifties walked into the compound surrounded by everyone. It seems that he is Gao Jianwu, the king of Rongliu County. Gao Jianwu's face was pale, and his steps were frivolous. I don't know if I was hollowed out by wine, or if I was born in bad health.

Goguryeo etiquette is lax, and people don't have to kneel and kowtow. Bow down and salute, even if it is a salute to the king of Rongliu County.

The first thing Gao Jianwu said was: "Dare to ask which one is Guo Ye, the prince of Pingyang County of the Tang Dynasty?" ”

Guo Ye didn't expect him to be so worried about Gao Jianwu, separated the crowd, stepped forward, hugged his fists, and said: "Guo Ye sees the king of Rongliu County!" ”

The king of Rongliu said that he was the king of the county, but in fact, this was the name of Goguryeo, and the Tang Dynasty did not recognize it. Even if it is his father, the king of Yingyang, in the official roster of the Tang Dynasty, he is only the king of Liaodong County. Gao Jianwu is just the son of the king of Liaodong County, and in the Tang Dynasty, he may not be able to point out who is higher and who is lower than Guo Ye. So Guo Ye didn't need to salute him.

King Rongliu took Guo Ye's hand and said, "I didn't expect that this king's small festival also alarmed Guo Xianren's master, which really flattered Xiao Wang and was full of brilliance." Thank you so much! ”

Guo Xianren?

What is this called? Guo Ye secretly wondered.

Gao Jianwu ignored Guo Ye's surprised expression and said to everyone: "The Five Spirits Dao Elder is in poor health and can't come. But it doesn't matter, we have Guo Immortal here, no worse than the Five Spirits Dao. It's just right to talk to Guo Xianren about the mysteries, and it's not too fast! ”

Everyone was in an uproar, but the head of the Five Spirits Dao brought a beautiful woman over. Everyone is nominally talking about the Tao of the Occult Dao, but in fact it is not to do something that men and women like to see with the beauties who have been trained by the Five Spirits Dao Master. What does this Lord Guo have?

Gao Jianwu said to Guo Ye in a low voice: "The head of the Five Spirits Dao didn't give face to the lonely king and went to participate in Yuan Nanjian's puja. Guo Xianren must help the lonely king to support the field, and the lonely king will be thanked afterwards! ”

Guo Yedao: "This official is the Pingyang County Duke of the Tang Dynasty, but he is not an immortal, where does the word 'immortal' come from to stay the king of the county?" ”

Gao Jianwu said: "What is it that can refine the Ninety-Nine Ascending Immortal Pill is not an immortal?" Now in the city of Pyongyang, who doesn't know the name of the Khak Immortals? ”

Gao Jianwu winked at Guo Ye, and Guo Ye understood.

The inside story of killing Yuanhai Ziba, Gao Jianwu knows it clearly. He didn't believe that Guo Ye was an immortal at all, but at this time, the head of the Five Spirits Dao did not come, but went to participate in the Dharma meeting of Gao Jianwu's opponent, Gao Jianwu lost face, and had to find Guo Ye to save the scene!

Guo Ye couldn't help but agree, although everyone had never met, they could be regarded as having shared the spoils together, and they couldn't help but give Gao Jianwu this face.

But when it comes to metaphysics, Guo Ye's eyes are black, and he won't do anything!
