The Wind Rises Qingping 3
In the third quarter of the Battle of Hanning, although the Southern Han side won the victory, it was also a tragic victory, with nearly 50,000 casualties. After this battle, the city of Nanning mourned for seven days, and it was forbidden to marry, celebrate, etc. There was a lot of mourning everywhere.
Seven days later, the national mourning ended, the city of Nanning gradually recovered, the citizens wiped the tears from their eyes, and began to carefully decorate the world at their own door. From the Prime Minister's Mansion to the newly renovated Commander's Palace, to the streets and alleys, red lanterns are hung everywhere. The big red happy word is posted everywhere.
The sound of gongs and drums shook the sky, and the sound of suona connected the entire prime minister's mansion.
As one of the main venues, it is even more joyful, and there are busy figures everywhere. Zhu Huai stood under the eaves in a red and yellow brocade robe, looking up at the blue sky. While feeling melancholy, he also breathed a sigh of relief: "Yunyu, our daughter is also getting married." Before you die, you confessed that this marriage must satisfy your daughter and be happy for your husband. ”
This should be the most ideal ending, I am satisfied, my daughter is also yearning, and what is even more rare is that Wu Ming's kid is not bad, and he also has a good impression of his daughter.
In addition, he Zhu Huai thought more, although the Southern Han Dynasty had the advantage of coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, it took the lead in the name of righteousness. But this thing is a double-edged sword. Those orphans of the former dynasty were centered on Tao Yu, staring at the sword of the Son of Heaven in Wu Ming's hand, and a small circle was vaguely formed. This small circle is incompatible with the Jiangnan forces, and with the passage of time, all kinds of contradictions will only get deeper and deeper. And he is the founding prime minister of this country, for his own sake and for the sake of the future little emperor, he will not allow the country to cause trouble within the wall. If there is chaos today, the entire Southern Han is in a weak position among all the forces, and once there is chaos within itself, the Southern Barbarians, the Northern Han Dynasty and Liao Qing in the west will definitely not mind rushing up and gnawing the poor five provinces south of the Yangtze River to the point that there is not even the scum left.
The only way to avoid such an outcome is to nip this possibility in the bud. The banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve made him see the thoughts of his precious daughter. After a little weighing, it was found that if Yuqing and Wu Ming were combined, it would be a rare happy situation. Wu Ming and Tao Yu are representatives of the remnants of the previous dynasty. Tao Yu is scheming, what is even more rare is that although this woman is young, she has a rare general knowledge, and because of Xiao Tianzi, she will definitely stand on her side at present and gradually be assimilated by the Jiangnan forces.
And Wu Ming, this kid, is good at force and the overall situation, but due to age restrictions, he is shorter than personnel and small roads. The subtle changes in this are often overlooked. The most important thing is that this kid is a stubborn donkey temper, and he often has a cold to the bones. Fortunately, there is Tao Yu, she understands herself. Now only when the two sides are closely connected can they better agree with the outside world, and letting Wu Ming marry himself is the best choice.
He was vaguely and a little uneasy in his heart, Tao Yu was getting more and more powerful now. If that day is really his opponent, he is really a fierce opponent. Thinking of this, he smiled bitterly, burying this uneasiness in his heart, now that even Xiao Tianzi has an inseparable relationship with himself, what else can this little woman who has been set up do ?
"Master, Lord Zuo has an emergency, and just now I sent someone to report, saying that there is urgent business." A prime minister hurriedly came out of it and whispered respectfully.
Zhu Huai's brows furrowed slightly. The Zuo master in the mouth of the family is naturally the new prime minister Shi Zuoying, this kid is really a talent, diligent, and his head is also very good, and he can often draw inferences from one another, Zhu Huai has begun to hand over many official documents to him for approval in the past few days. Now that the auspicious time is coming soon, the welcoming team on the side of the Commander's Mansion is almost there, what can this kid do to find himself?
However, he Zhu Huai is not a person who does not know the general situation, Zuo Ying is looking for himself at this time, something big must have happened, otherwise he would not have picked it up to now. He straightened his clothes and walked towards the back office.
When he walked into the office mansion, Wu Ming's welcoming team arrived at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion. After a tedious etiquette, Zhu Yuqing walked out with the help of the two handsome maids, although there was a big red hijab blocking each other's sight, Wu Ming could still feel the other party's nervousness, when she put her sweaty right hand into Wu Ming's big hand. He exhaled deeply, and there seemed to be a woman in white clothes like snow and a fairy in front of him, that was He Yi. In his ears, it seemed that Yiren's words echoed again: "Husband, you have to be good and live bravely, for yourself and for Xiaoyi." ”
He couldn't help but clench one of the bride's soft twins. Xiaoyi, I will live well, for you and for myself.
In a long burst of firecrackers, Wu Ming, who was wearing a red brocade suit, walked out of the prime minister's mansion with a red skirt dragging Zhu Yuqing. Although he had been mentally prepared, when Wu Ming stepped out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he was still deeply shocked by the scene in front of him. Outside, the wide square was almost completely enclosed in the streets. The windows of the tea shops and restaurants on both sides of the street were also crowded with people, and some of the city's residents could not find a place and even climbed onto the roof.
Thousands of empty alleys, right?
On both sides of the street, a burst of cheers like a tsunami suddenly sounded, and someone took the lead in shouting: "The red night is like a dragon, the clear and graceful is like a jade, the piano and the seer play with each other, and a hundred years of good peace." "The people of the country are looking forward to happiness, and they all regard this beautiful and noble marriage as a good omen for the reversal of the fortunes of the country, and everyone dances and harmonizes with each other.
When Wu Ming stepped on the tall and majestic south, leading the red and flowery carriage of the Zhufu to pass by on the street, the family send-off team of the Prime Minister's Mansion played a grand and peaceful music, nearly a hundred clothes fluttering, and the palace maids in red clothes danced in the music, and the crisp and pleasant singing sounded at the same time:
The snow in the mountains is still in the cold, and the city is full of spring tides.
ru swallow calls new willows, butterflies dance peach.
Raise a glass to invite the green wine, and the sunshine is good.
Lang and concubine marry each other, just to see, Pulsatilla.
……
That is the word "Spring Return", which is one of the four songs of the Shanggong Bureau, after this word is composed, Qingyue is cheerful, and there is a joy when singing. Whether it is an official or an ordinary person, whenever they get married, most of them use this song to bless the newlyweds, so this song is very popular. The square street was boiling, all the city residents were in unison, and the song of blessings resounded throughout Nanning, and the entire Nanning city was filled with a grand festive atmosphere from day to night. After this happy event, it seems that the wounds caused by the war have also disappeared cleanly.
The procession stopped next to a large manor next to the Guards Palace.
There is no shortage of large courtyards in Nanning City, and most of them are high-ranking officials and nobles who settle here, and even buy houses. And this building was invited by Zhu Huai, Tao Yu personally decreed, and it was coiled down in the form of gold from the treasury. After buying this large manor, Zhu Huai ordered Liu Ze, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, to personally lead people to repair this manor again.
Liu Ze was very careful, and the street in front of the door was opened up with a carriage and horse field, and the two angry-eyed stone lions were wrapped with red silk cloth. The stone lion is carved from rare green jade, and even the square in front of the door is paved with large green bricks, and then tamped by glutinous rice, which is neat and practical. And in the middle of the door, a black jade flat forehead hangs high, and three big characters are written on it: Commander's Mansion. On the head of the stone lion on the right side of the door, the dragon is dancing with four big characters - loyalty and righteousness. On the right, the dragon and snake are also drawn - Shenwei Gaishi. Four soldiers of the Guards Battalion, also dressed in red brocade robes, stood like javelins at the door, pressing their sheaths in unison. Moreover, this building is not only festive, but also shows a bit of deep majesty.
At the end of the avenue, a hall nearly ten meters high stands majestically, and there is also a black plaque on it: Council Hall. On both sides of the road are tall green pines, and all kinds of chrysanthemums are also placed on various paths, and the flowers are full of flowers, and they are prosperous. This is the place where the Consul's Mansion is held and the hospitality hall.
On the left side of the courtyard is a side room for servants and servants. On the right, there is the kitchen and utility room. After passing through the two moon gates on the left and right in the front yard, you will arrive at the backyard. It's another world, almost the same size as the front yard. As the living place of the newlyweds, it is a rockery pavilion, a small bridge and flowing water, and a winding path. To the north, a three-story building looms among evergreen trees, which is the owner's bedroom. Next to it are some exquisite small rooms, which are study, kitchen, observation deck and other buildings. Even Nanwang has a specially customized stablehouse in a corner of the backyard and hires a special groom to take care of it. The whole backyard looks elegant and graceful.
The repair and transformation of the Commander's Mansion not only had Liu Ze's hard work, but Zhu Yuqing also came several times in his busy schedule to personally supervise the work. She knew that this husband, who was about to get married to her, would never put his heart and soul into the construction of his mansion, let alone make it so splendid. But she also knows that her newlywed husband is a military opener after all, and he must have his own façade. If it is built too shabbyly, it will make many people look down on it, and it will make many people think otherwise. And the eight big characters at the door, "Loyalty and righteousness, Shenwei and the world", seem to be boundless, but those big families are afraid of this.
And Wu Ming is sometimes too benevolent.
The sky gradually darkened, and when the full moon of Nanning City climbed up to the top of the city, the carnival night market had just begun. Today, the forbidden army yamen has an order early, and the whole city carnival all night long, and the night market is not forbidden. The Consulate, which had been noisy for a day, gradually quieted down as the guests dispersed. A full moon like a jade disc passed through the clouds, and the faint moonlight sprinkled onto the earth. The entire backyard is plated with a thin layer of silver glow. Zhu Yuqing lifted his hijab, revealing a delicate face, looking at the bright moon in the sky.
The moon, round and like a spinning wheel, spun her reverie.
She propped a pair of jade hands on her delicate chin and looked at it from afar. Through the peaceful moonlight, looking at the rockery, stone pavilion, small bridge, and cypress in this courtyard, this stupid guy is quite talented in music and poetry, and he should be very able to communicate with himself. She seemed to see that she was flicking her scorched tail under the green cypress, while Wu Ming was singing lightly with a sword on the side. Thinking about it, an intoxicating smile gradually surfaced on her delicate cheeks.
There was a sudden noise downstairs, and she panicked, quickly stood up, and ran into the house as if she had escaped.
