Seeing that his son was flustered, Lu Guogong asked curiously, "What's so unusual about participating in the dragon boat race?" In the past, our government also participated, and one year it won the first place. ”

Duchess Guo knew that something was wrong, so she interrupted Grandpa Guo's words: "You let Chuan'er finish speaking." ”

Hua Sanye took the cotton handkerchief handed over by his mother to wipe his sweat, sat down and said: "It is not unusual to participate in the dragon boat race, what is strange is that the princess's mansion has set up a greenhouse, which reads: May Festival, Daughter's Day, Cao'e River Dragon Boat Race." ”

Duke Lu and his wife looked at each other, not knowing what the princess's mansion was going to do.

Cao E is a famous filial daughter. It is recorded in the biography of the martyr that her father Cao Xu drowned in the Shunjiang River during the sacrifice of the god Wu on May 5, when Cao E was only 14 years old, and cried along the river day and night. The Shunjiang River that Cao E's father voted for is Cao Ejiang.

The emperors of the past dynasties praised Cao E's great events, built the tall and brilliant Cao E main hall, and enshrined Ling Xiaofu, Mrs. Chunyi, and Mrs. Huigan.

Cao E can be a household name, the earliest is Shangyu County Lingdu Shangming disciple Handan Chun made a speech, carved a stone monument that is, "Cao E Monument", in order to show filial piety. After Cai Yong visited, at dusk, his hand touched his text and read, the inscription was eight characters in the stele yin: "Huang Juan's young woman's grandson is mortar", this becomes a mystery, the riddle is a wonderful word, the first person to solve this riddle is Yang Xiu.

Later, the Cao'e tablet was written by Wang Anshi's son-in-law Cai Bian. For the line of italics, the pen is strong, smooth and crisp,

In particular, the text of Wang Xizhi's "Filial Piety Girl Cao'e Tablet" can be called a masterpiece, and its attainments are only inferior to the "Lanting Collection Preface".

This is also the reason why Gao Zhao chose Cao E as the reason to tell the eldest princess of Pingwu that Cao E is not only a filial daughter on the legend of the martyr, because there is no literati in the past dynasties who do not know about the Cao E monument.

Although Lu Guogong didn't read the biography of the martyr, Cao E also knew that there was a fake Wang Xizhi's handbook at home.

The Duchess of Guo was excited when she thought of this, and guessed what the eldest princess of Pingwu meant, she stood up and said, "I will change my clothes and take Guibao to Erli River." ”

The Erli River is connected to the Grand Canal, where the Dragon Boat Race is held every year.

When the people of the Guogong Mansion rushed over, it was densely packed with people, and the provinces knew that the eldest princess of Pingwu had gone, and all the female dependents rushed to Erlihe, and the Soldiers and Horses Command Division sent people to maintain order.

In the shed built by the princess's mansion, Mrs. Yu ordered her to ask for peace, Pingwu left a seat, and a vacant space was vacated in front of the greenhouse, and a long table and round stools were placed, and some official ladies sat there.

Seeing the Duchess coming, everyone looked at the flower treasure she was holding, this was the only one in Beijing who dared to show up with the reputation of the May Girl.

The Duchess put down the flower treasure, led her into the greenhouse, and greeted the eldest princess.

Pingwu smiled and said, "Mrs. You, sit down, Guibao, come, let me hug me." ”

Hua Guibao is naughty again, that is also the mother around the mother to teach, the lady of the Guogong Mansion personally preached, I know how to do it, seeing so many people, she also behaves in a good manner, I have seen the eldest princess, and said with a smile: "Huahua to the eldest princess please peace, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

This is learned from Gao Tianyi, and Gao Tian's opinion is that everyone likes to say that I haven't seen you for a long time.

Pingwu felt sorry when he saw anyone's little lady because of the golden bean, and the little man of Hua Guibao said adult words, and Pingwu was even more happy to hold it in his arms.

She took out a pomegranate flower for Hua Guibao to wear, and took out a character from a sandalwood box, and next to Jiang Mama handed a purse, Pingwu put the character in it, and hung the purse around Hua Guibao's neck.

"This is the character I asked for from the Lingxu Temple, to give you a precious treasure, a safe life, and a full house of children and grandchildren."

The Duchess's eyes were shining, and she knelt down and bowed.

The other edicts thought that Pingwu was because the daughter of the Hua family wanted to marry the Gao family, so she specially gave the girl of the Hua family face, and as soon as she made a move, who would dare to criticize the daughter of the Hua family or something.

But I heard the eldest princess of Pingwu say: "Just arrived in May, I dreamed of my father, just like when I was a child, I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep for a long time. ”

Everyone knows that this my father is Emperor Chengzong, and everyone knows that Pingwu was taught by Emperor Chengzong since he was a child, so Pingwu's words look like Emperor Chengzong.

"At that time, I copied the biography of the martyr and the book of filial piety many times, and I was puzzled by Cao E, and asked: Cao E's filial piety in May to find her father and throw herself into the river, so there is also the Dragon Boat Festival to commemorate Cao E, but why does the world say that the May girl is ominous? The father said: May girl, filial daughter. Everyone also knows that my biological second daughter is named Yu'e, why? I think it's a woman who is Cao E! Today, I went to Lingxu Temple early in the morning, asked for a spiritual talisman, and picked pomegranate flowers. ”

Mrs. Luo took the lead in kneeling down for the eldest princess, and all the orders followed, saying: Thank you for the mercy of the eldest princess!

Mama Jiang took a few subordinates to hold a bamboo basket with pomegranate flowers in it, and a special wooden box for Lingxu Temple.

For a while, the words of the eldest princess of Pingwu spread out, and no one came at first, and a thin woman came forward with a female baby, dressed in shabby clothes, and Mama Jiang led her into the greenhouse.

Hua Sanye has been paying attention to the movement, after the eldest princess's words came out, he hurriedly sent someone back to the house to arrange the scattered silver, and when he saw the mother and daughter come out, a grandmother from the Guogong Mansion stepped forward and gave the mother and daughter a tael of silver, saying that she would come to the Guogong Mansion to receive five taels of silver for the dowry when she got married in the future.

The woman was overjoyed and took her daughter and kowtowed.

The county lord of Le'an spoke on behalf of the Hou Mansion of Anxi, saying that in the future, the May girl of the Hou Mansion of Anxi would marry, and the Hou Mansion would give the dowry silver, and the filial daughter could not be misunderstood and wronged.

The civilians who were watching understood what was going on, and the May girl in the family hurriedly went back to get the household registration and bring the girl to receive the spirit talisman and silver.

The female dependents of the edict looked at it, no one had come to receive the spirit talisman yet, Pingwu understood their thoughts, there was a May girl in the family before, and she couldn't help it when she was distressed, so she would suddenly let them say it, it was not just her personal situation, she had to listen to the family.

The Lu Guogong Mansion has no choice, everyone knows that the Guogong Mansion is unwilling to give up its daughter like other mansions, so it is more acceptable to Pingwu's statement.

Pingwu thought, this thing is not something that can be accepted by people today, take your time, as long as the people can accept it and change the ominous statement of this May girl, the upper class will accept it.

Gao Zhao was waiting for someone to inquire about the news in the princess's mansion, she was waiting for news from her mother's shop. The eldest princess of Pingwu didn't tell her what she did.

To be honest, Gao Zhao has no bottom, and it is difficult to make people change their concepts, she thinks that she can't prepare the dumplings in the store and no one will receive them.

Who knew that Dai Qiu ran in in a panic.

"Second grandma, the eleventh dumpling room is full of people, and there is a long queue, all of them are here to receive the dumplings."

Gao Zhao was surprised, so surprised, aren't you afraid to say that your girl is a May girl for a few babies?
