The five envoys who came on the way were finally discouraged and dejected. Compared with wisdom, Datang won completely. Qin Xuan, with his three-inch tongue and a bit of rare wisdom, retreated from the five-way "army" in an instant, which made Taizong very happy.

After the competition, Taizong was happy and said in a pleasant tone: "Fang Qing, eldest grandson Aiqing, Qin Xuan, the three of you come to the imperial study with me!" ”

When the three of them heard this, they quickly knelt on the ground and responded in unison: "Yes, Your Majesty!" ”

In the imperial study, Taizong sat on the dragon chair, and Qin Xuan and the three of them stood opposite. Taizong was obviously still immersed in the matter of the competition, and said with a smile: "Qin Xuan, just a few words today, let those few foreign envoys who don't know what to do understand the Tang Dynasty is full of talents, and know ......."

The more Taizong spoke, the more Qin Xuan listened, and the more happy he became: If you can let Tang Taizong praise me like this, I'm afraid I can be regarded as a character, and I think there will definitely be my deeds in the history books......

When Qin Xuan was thinking wildly, Taizong changed his words and said slowly: "However, Qin Xuan, although you have splendid talent in your belly, you are unwilling to enter the court as an official to benefit the Tang Dynasty and the people, which is really a hateful act!" ”

When Qin Xuan heard this, he suddenly came back to his senses, swallowed a mouthful of spit, and said in his heart: It seems that this is going to settle old accounts! After thinking for a while, he hurriedly saluted: "Your Majesty, the grass people are guilty, but there is really something unspeakable, and I hope to see it!" ”

Taizong tilted his head slightly, looked at Qin Xuan, and slandered in his heart: Hasn't this son ever sinned? I didn't say that I wanted to blame him, could it be that this son has done something sorry for me? He coughed lightly and said calmly, "Oh? Then tell me, what is difficult to hide! ”

Qin Xuan pursed his lips and said, "First, before His Majesty hid Long Wei, the grass people didn't notice it, and some of His Majesty's actions were a little careless!" ”

Taizong waved his hand slightly and said, "This matter is intentional on my part, and it has nothing to do with you!" ”

Qin Xuan then said: "Second, he once pushed away the good intentions of the Fang Xiang and refused to contribute to the country!" In fact, because the grass people are familiar with how many catties and taels they have, although they are a little smart, they have no experience in dealing with political affairs, so they dare not agree to the prime minister! ”

After Qin Xuan finished speaking, Taizong blurted out directly: "I don't know what to talk about, as long as I learn slowly, I can have it?" ”

Qin Xuan frowned, not knowing how to respond, so he didn't make a sound.

Seeing this, Taizong said in his heart: Isn't it my words that have changed this son's mind? So, while it was hot, hit the railway: "If you want to be a leader, I will give you a chance, if you are still nostalgic for comfort and pleasure, I will naturally not force you!" ”

When Qin Xuan heard this, he secretly thought to himself: Contribute to the country, since Yu'er persuaded me, I have secretly made up my mind! Coupled with the recent subtle changes in Brother Du, I have to do something, but I boldly agreed, in case I don't do it well in the future, then there will be no place to maneuver! Thinking of this, Qin Xuan blurted out: "After thinking about it recently, the grass people also want to contribute to the country, but they just have some ideas, I don't know what Your Majesty wants?" ”

Taizong blurted out directly: "Let's hear it!" ”

Qin Xuan bowed slightly: "The grass people want to start from small officials, such as a county parent official, first, they are closer to the people and can benefit them, and second, they can exercise a lot!" ”

When Taizong heard this, he said in his heart: Qin Xuan's son is witty and knowledgeable, is it a bit condescending to be an official in the local government like this? However, this son's words are not unreasonable, and exercising slowly in the local area is always like doing an idle job in the court. casually asked, "I wonder where you want to go to become an official?" ”

Qin Xuan thought that Manyun would be brought to Xiangyang by the county lord of Yushuang, and blurted out: "Xiangyang, this place is peaceful and peaceful, there are fewer chores, and it is easy to get started!" ”

Taizong thought for a moment and replied: "Let me think about this matter!" ”

Back home, Qin Xuan felt a little proud in his heart: After half his life, he couldn't catch up with a year of traveling through ancient times, if Li Shimin could let me go to Xiangyang to be a county magistrate, how good it would be, although the county magistrate is small, he is the head of a county, and he can be with Manyun! Thinking of Manyun, Qin Xuan muttered again: Is it time to get married to Yu'er, let Yu'er rest assured, and when she and Manyun meet again in the future, Yu'er and Manyun may get along in harmony!

Thinking of this, Qin Xuan walked straight to Old Zhang's room. Zhang Lao is sitting on the chair at the moment, carefully supervising Rui'er to practice calligraphy, while watching, he nodded, and said in his heart: Rui'er is studying hard to learn and read, it is really the luck of the Zhang family!

Qin Xuan was in a hurry, and pushed the door in. "Uncle—"

Zhang Lao frowned unconsciously, turned his head to the side, and saw that Qin Xuan was a little flustered, with a slight hint of displeasure, and asked, "Zhihao, why are you so flustered?" ”

Qin Xuan saw Rui'er practicing calligraphy on the side, stepped forward and pulled Zhang Lao into the back room, and asked, "Uncle, the New Year has passed, should we organize a marriage for me and Yu'er as discussed years ago?" ”

When Zhang Lao heard this, the trace of displeasure in front of Fang suddenly disappeared, replaced by a smile. Glancing at Qin Xuan, he stroked the goat's whiskers, poked his head forward slightly, and asked with a smile, "What?" In a hurry? ”

Seeing Elder Zhang's disrespectful expression, Qin Xuan pursed his lips and replied softly: "Uncle, aren't I thinking about Yu'er!" ”

Elder Zhang couldn't stop nodding his head and looked at Qin Xuan with a smile. "Do you still have to worry about this? Zhen'er and I have already done it for you! ”

Qin Xuan was pleasantly surprised: "Really? ”

Zhang Lao waved his hand and chuckled: "Look at what you said, the dates are all set, can there be a holiday?" ”

"When?" Qin Xuan was so excited that he asked.

"The sixteenth day of the first month is an auspicious day, and it is on that day!"

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, Qin Xuan put up lanterns, and everywhere was red and beaming. Qin Xuan stood at the door, muttering in his heart: Uncle is too, I don't know a few people in Chang'an, why do I have to stand at the door against the cold wind to greet him!

Qin Xuan was thinking about nothing when a carriage came slowly, and before it could stop, a deep voice came. "Qin Xuan Xiaoyou, you are getting married today, my old Cheng can't be late!" As he spoke, Cheng Yanjin jumped out of the carriage and walked in front of Qin Xuan with a smile.

Qin Xuan's face was overjoyed, and he raised his hand to salute: "Old Man Cheng is very honored to come!" ”

I saw Cheng Biting Jin waving his hand and said, "Don't be so polite!" After speaking, he leaned forward slightly, and said softly: "Today, has Fenqing ever prepared?" ”

When Qin Xuan heard this, he scolded secretly in his heart: Didn't you come with you, just to say hello to me, just to drink? I thought so in my heart, but I couldn't say that, so I said with a smile: "Old man Cheng, even if you drink, you will be full today until you can't drink it anymore!" ”

When Cheng Yanjin heard this, he was overjoyed, and led Xiaoliu into the house.

Subsequently, one after another, such as Fang Xuanling, Wei Chigong, Hou Junji, Song Yimin, and Taizong and Li Ke in civilian clothes, all arrived one after another. Qin Xuan thought that almost everything that should have come came, so he turned around and walked into the mansion.

Due to the special situation, Qin Xuan's wedding was not very cumbersome, just taking Qian Ruyu from the West Courtyard to the main courtyard and holding a ceremony.

Seeing that the hour was almost up, Du Xingwen, who acted as the master of ceremonies, smiled and whispered: "The time has come, go to the West Courtyard to meet the bride!" ”

After all, Qin Xuan was the first time in his life, and he was slightly nervous, surrounded by Cheng Yanjin and others, and slowly walked towards the west courtyard.

Walking to the arch of the west courtyard, Qin Xuanfang was about to take a step, but Fang Xuanling behind him suddenly said, "Virtuous nephew, do you just go in like this?" ”

Qin Xuan stopped when he heard this, and said in his heart: If you don't walk in like this, do I have to change my way? Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked up at the height of the courtyard wall, then turned around slowly, and asked with a smile: "Fang Xiang, what do you think it should be?" ”

Fang Xuanling stepped forward and said with a smile: "Nephew Qin Xian, you have already deleted a lot of steps in this wedding, do you want to pass it simply?" ”

Qin Xuanhan laughed a few times and said, "Please also ask the minister to make it clear?" ”

Fang Xuanling showed a slight smile and said, "If you want to enter this door, you must make a poem to enter the door!" ”

Qin Xuan unconsciously lost his voice and said, "Enter the door poem? Seeing the gloating expressions of Taizong and the others, Qin Xuan swallowed and spat at the mouth, nodding helplessly.

After thinking for a while, he said: "A cluster of peach blossoms fills the garden, and the spring color is three points of green wood." The dark fragrance is thick, and the east wind is looking forward to it. After speaking, Qin Xuan looked at everyone with a smile and asked, "Can you enter the door?" ”

Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "Dongfeng loves peach blossoms, yes, you can enter the door!" ”

Only then did Qin Xuan take a step and walk into the west courtyard.

When he arrived at the door of the room where Qian Ruyu was in the West Courtyard, Qin Xuan saw Du Juan and Huan'er, one left and one right, standing in front of the door like two generals, and unconsciously a bad premonition came to his heart.

I saw the cuckoo take a step forward and said with a smile: "Brother Xuan, don't you hear that the door is easy to enter, but the door is difficult to enter?" ”

Qin Xuan reached out and touched his forehead, and said with a smile: "I don't know what Juan Er thinks?" ”

A wicked smile flashed on the cuckoo's face, and he said, "Like a gate, enter the door poetry!" ”

Qin Xuan secretly said in his heart: Which grandson did this, it is more difficult to marry a daughter-in-law than to marry a fairy! In desperation, he closed his eyes and pondered. After a moment, he opened his eyes and said with a smile: "The night is falling, and the breeze is scattering." The green willows dance, just because the bright moon comes. I don't know if I can get in? ”

The cuckoo bit his lip lightly and didn't speak, Huan'er on the side stepped forward directly, and said with a smile: "Childe, this door can be entered, but my young lady is dressing up, why don't you make another poem to urge!" ”

Qin Xuan closed his eyes and scolded secretly in his heart: Grandson, he has made so many Dao Dao, he is definitely a grandson! sighed lightly, thought about it for a long time, and said calmly: "Yiren has fat powder in the house, and Lang Guanmen has made an article in front of it." If the poems bloom one by one, I don't know how many layers of makeup they make. ”

The door opened slowly, and Du Huizhen held the money like jade red cloth on her head and walked out lightly. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, the costume is ready, hurry up and go to the main hall to hold a ceremony!" ”

Qin Xuan slandered in his heart: I didn't even enter the door, Fang Cai's entry poem was done in vain!

Qian Ruyu took broken steps and walked into the sedan chair that Qin Xuan proposed to be specially dressed. Du Xingwen happily exclaimed: "The sedan chair is up!" ”

Taizong, who was on the side, felt more and more that Qin Xuan's marriage was interesting, and chatted softly with Fang Xuanling: "Welcoming relatives and marrying, if you can write a few poems like this, it must not only enliven the atmosphere, but also make the boy study!" I want to advocate this, I don't know if it's okay? ”

When Fang Xuanling heard this, he said happily: "Good deed, this is a great good deed!" Ministers agree! ”
