Time passed day by day, and the day of Yueyang's wedding finally arrived.
On May 20 of the sixth year of Chongzhen, it is advisable to travel and marry
Today, whether it is located in Wulizhai Yuejiazhuang or located in Yingzhou City, Yuefu is very lively, a large number of servants began to display lights in these two places, especially the Yuefu located in Yingzhou City is full of guests, but all the people who have a head and face in Yingzhou Mansion today almost all use Yueyang's mansion.
"Huh...... Brother Li, you are here too, I am glad to be there! ”
"Brother Lin, it's been a long time, it's okay to come in?"
"Eh, Zhao Yuanwai, we haven't seen each other for a long time, we need to have a few more drinks later!"
Yue Yang stood at the gate wearing a bright red wedding dress, greeting everyone with a smile, from noon to afternoon, he felt that he had released all the smiles of his life today. As a personal scholar who grew up with him since childhood, Shunbao also temporarily threw away the errand of the defense officer, and honestly became a personal servant on the side.
Suddenly, a figure flashed in front of Yue Yang, and Yue Yang, who was already accustomed to the nature of the city, opened his mouth and said, "Eh...... Wu...... You bastards, get out of here, don't dangle in front of Lao Tzu! ”
Yue Yang kicked Wu Chengfeng who was standing in front of him angrily, and looked at it again, and now in addition to Wu Chengfeng, Hu Laosan, Feng Xiaoming and other more than ten more important defensive officers under him, Qian Zong and other officers are all here.
Seeing Yue Yang's face cramping with a smile, everyone burst out laughing.
"Laugh...... Laugh at the fart, hurry up and get Lao Tzu in. Lao Tzu still has to pick up customers! "Huh...... Why is this so awkward? Before Yue Yang could come to his senses, the laughter around him became louder. Everyone knew that today was Yueyang's big day, and no matter how everyone joked with him, he wouldn't be angry, so they laughed extra loudly.
Seeing Yue Yang, whose face was faintly blue, Shunbao on the side hurriedly kicked and drove a group of stunned people into the courtyard.
Seeing this group of guys enter the courtyard, Yue Yang rubbed his cheeks, which were already a little cramped, leaned against the door and took a breath, and beckoned to Shunbao on the side: "Hurry up and pour me a glass of water, the young master's throat is about to smoke!" Fuck. What a great sin to be suffered today! ”
Seeing this, Shun Bao hurriedly ran to the back porter and took out a teapot, and without waiting for Shun Bao to pour the tea, Yue Yang snatched the teapot and poured several large sips into the spout, and the cool tea finally made Yue Yang's throat almost cracked much better.
"Ah......" Yue Yang said "shenyin" comfortably, he was about to speak, and Shunbao on the side pulled his sleeve again and whispered: "Young master, there are two sedan chairs in front." It seems to be an eight-person blue sedan chair and a four-person green sedan chair. ”
"Well, there's anything else going on?" As soon as he heard this, Yue Yang's heart was Weiwei, in this year, the sedan chair is a means of transportation used by many people to go out, but the feudal rulers still have strict regulations on the use of the sedan chair.
Eight sedan chairs mean eight people to carry the sedan chair. In addition to the sedan chair that the bride rides, only officials at the level of a provincial governor can enjoy the sedan chair carried by eight people when traveling, and this rule cannot be casually overpassed.
Now when Yue Yang heard that there were eight sedan chairs coming, he couldn't help but be taken aback in his heart and hurriedly looked over. When Yue Yang looked over, he immediately saw a green sedan chair landing on the ground. An official in a blue civilian uniform stepped out of the sedan chair.
"Shhh...... Why is this old man here! Seeing the comer, Yue Yang couldn't help but be startled!
Taken aback, Yue Yang hurriedly trotted all the way over, walked to the person who came, bowed down, and asked in a surprised tone, "Lord Xu." How did you get here? ”
"Haha...... Today is your big day, the old man brought a friend over to ask for a glass of wine, Zhenghong, you won't mind! A small but majestic voice sounded, and the person who came was Xu Dingchen, the governor who came all the way from Taiyuan.
Facing the arrival of the provincial governor and secretary of the provincial party committee, Yue Yang couldn't help but feel a little nervous in addition to being surprised.
"Brother remembered that he didn't invite this big guy to come, why did he come here? Could it be that my brother just gave him 20,000 taels of silver and felt a little embarrassed, so he came over to express himself? ”
Seeing the surprised look on Yue Yang's face, Xu Dingchen smiled and said: "Zhenghong, don't be nervous, the old man said that today is purely for a cup of wine, there is no other meaning, you just need to treat the old man as an ordinary guest." ”
"It's strange to believe you." Yue Yang muttered in his heart, a provincial governor who didn't have much friendship with you suddenly came to attend the wedding of his six-rank sesame official, and swore that he was just here to have a glass of wine, such a thing would not be believed by anyone with a normal IQ.
However, the official level crushed people to death, and since the chief said so, he had to force himself to believe it.
Xu Dingchen looked at Yue Yang, he also knew that the credibility of his words was too low, so he secretly smiled bitterly and continued to Yue Yang: "Also, the old man also introduced a distinguished guest to you today. He is the new Shanxi town guard Wei Tong and Wei Gonggong, Zhenghong, haven't you seen Wei Gonggong in a hurry? ”
After Xu Dingchen's words fell, Yue Yang turned around and saw that a middle-aged man with a white face and beard who was standing not far away was looking at him with a smile on his face.
"The eunuch guarding the middle palace?" Yue Yang sighed in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward and said to Wei Tonghe: "Xia Guan Yingzhou Mansion conducts Yue Yang has seen Father-in-law Wei, I wish Father-in-law Wei good fortune and good health!" ”
After Wei Tonghe glanced at Yue Yang, he said with a male duck voice unique to eunuchs: "Quack...... It's free, our family has been thinking before coming, what kind of brave warrior can break tens of thousands of thieves with 500 regimental training, who expected to see that he is so young today, this makes our family surprised and happy, when did we have such a young hero! ”
"Huh...... This brother is a dead eunuch who is quite good at talking. ”
Listening to Wei Tonghe's words, Yue Yang couldn't help but be slightly stunned. In his impression, the term eunuch has always been associated with the derogatory terms of greed, cunning, insidious, vicious, and vicious, and in addition to the emperor, they have always spoken with others with their nostrils facing the sky, but he didn't expect to be so polite to him, a little integrity officer.
However, Yue Yang quickly reflected, it seems that he was misled by the TV series and books of the past, if the eunuchs were all of this kind of IQ, they would have ten heads cut off.
Although his heart turned several times in an instant, Yue Yang still hurriedly smiled and said: "Grandpa Wei is too polite, the lower official is just a fluke to win a battle, Lord Meng Xu will not give up and hand over the heavy responsibility of defending the city to the lower official, so there is a lower official today." Otherwise, how would Gonggong Wei know that there is such a number one person as Xia Guan in Yingzhou Mansion! ”
"Quack quack...... Lord Yue is too modest! After listening to Yue Yang's words, Xu Dingchen on the side was very comfortable listening to it, and even Wei Tonghe glanced at Yue Yang with some surprise. Originally, I thought that a young man like Yue Yang, after winning the battle, was appreciated and promoted by the governor, and it must be that the young man Dezhi was also a little arrogant when he spoke, but he didn't expect that this young man would speak like an old fritter who had been immersed in officialdom for decades, and he spoke without leakage and was modest and respectful, which couldn't help but Wei Tonghe didn't look at him.
Seeing that Wei Tonghe still wanted to speak, Xu Dingchen on the side interjected with a smile: "The groom, the old man and Father-in-law Wei have been standing at the door for a long time, don't you invite us in for a cup of tea?" ”
"Oh...... Lord Xu is right, it is indeed the negligence of the lower officials, the two adults please serve tea inside! After hearing this, Yue Yang hurriedly invited these two in.
After Xu Dingchen and Wei Tonghe entered, Yue Yang took two steps forward and turned his head and whispered to Shunbao: "The time is up, close the door quickly!" ”
"Yes!"
"Bang dang!"
The door soon closed, as if the bustle inside and the outside were separated into two worlds.
When Yue Yang accompanied Xu Dingchen and Wei Tonghe to the inner hall, he saw Zheng Kui and a group of the most powerful people in Yingzhou City talking to the old lady, and when they saw Yue Yang and them coming in, they stopped talking and looked over.
But the vast majority of people in the inner hall don't know Xu Dingchen and the two, seeing Yue Yang, who is the groom's official, actually following behind the two, everyone's eyes are full of curiosity and incomprehension, it's no wonder that not everyone has the opportunity to see the governor of a province, or Zheng Kui first reflected, he was stunned for a moment and then hurriedly took two steps forward and bowed down to Xu Dingchen and said: "Zheng Kui, the governor of the lower official Yingzhou, visited the governor, and wished the governor good fortune and health!" ”
"Whoa......
As soon as Zheng Kui's words fell, the inner hall was as noisy as a boiling pot.
"What, I heard you right, he's the Governor?"
"Brother, hurry up and pinch it, I'm not dreaming, the governor is also here?"
Xu Dingchen's arrival surprised everyone in the inner hall, and they almost couldn't believe their eyes. However, it is no wonder that although these people are also considered to be well-known figures in Yingzhou Capital, they are still too far from the world of the two sides compared to the governor of a province. Even the old lady who was sitting on the throne just now, when she heard that the governor was coming, she hurriedly came to Xu Dingchen and greeted Xu Dingchen with the support of Yue Yang's little sister Yue Ying.
Xu Dingchen hurriedly helped the old lady up and helped her back to her seat, and then said to everyone: "Everyone, the old man came really abruptly this time, and it also caused trouble to you. However, the old man who came this time is not the protagonist, the old man is accompanying the newly arrived Shanxi town guard in the middle palace Wei Gonggong this time, and everyone is not going to give a gift to Wei Gonggong! ”
"The eunuch guarding the middle palace?"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be taken aback. The people who can do this position are usually the emperor's henchmen, but why did he come to join in the fun?
