Shen Yu only stayed in Yanlan City for two days before setting off for his post in the Northland. Before leaving, he discussed the date of marriage with Mrs. Tai, which was set on October 19 this year, which means "perfect and long-lasting".

The reason why the date was set so early was that Shen Yu was in a hurry, lest he drag it out and regenerate variables; The second is that the winter in the north is cold and long, and it will not warm up until April and May of the next year. The third is because Yun Xiangrong's delivery date is in Layue this year, she is bound to die, and Mrs. Tai doesn't want to let Chu Xiu get this bad luck, so she will marry before that.

October 19 married, which means that Xiu will go to the north before the beginning of September. There are only four months left. In these four months, Yunfu not only had to buy dowries and wedding dresses for Chuxiu, but also had to go through the "six rites" of marriage step by step.

Now that he is remarried, it is just a private agreement between Mrs. Tai and Shen Yu, and she did not follow the rules of the wedding ceremony. But both of them wanted to remarry in a beautiful way, so they planned to work the "Six Rites", and every step could not be avoided.

Fortunately, Shen Yu was thoughtful, and before he set off from Jingzhou to take up his post, he had already sent someone to the north, saying that Cheng Guogong would personally come to officiate the marriage.

Speaking of this Cheng Guogong, the origin is not small-

Cheng was originally a hereditary duke of Beixi, stationed in Minzhou for a long time, and had many contacts with Yun's Minzhou, and Cheng Guogong himself also had a great friendship with Yun Cheng's biological father Yuntan;

Later, after Chen Xuan's incident, Cheng Guo married the Chen family during the public trial, and married his daughter to Chen Xuan's righteous brother Chen Lang, so the Chen and Cheng families jointly raised the banner of uprising;

Looking at the reunification of the north and the south now, because of the relationship between the ministers, Cheng Guogong is still standing tall and has experienced the changes of the three dynasties steadily.

Cheng Guogong himself started as a horseman, and his people traveled extensively, and when Shen Yu reorganized the army in the north, he became a friend with him by chance. Later, his son-in-law Chen Lang said that the emperor was moved to save Shen Yu from death, which also indirectly promoted the friendship between Cheng Guogong and Shen Yu to be deeper.

Therefore, as soon as he heard that Shen Yu lacked an officiant, Cheng Guogong readily agreed without saying a word. When Shen Yufu arrived in the Northland, he received the good news, so he immediately asked the secret guard to give Mrs. Tai a message and inform him of the matter.

Now that Shen Yu has found the main marriage, Mrs. Tai is naturally not to be outdone, and she began to think about sending her relatives to choose. Out of Xiu to marry in the north, the family sending team has to start from Yanlan City, this section of the journey is too long and too far, and the person who sends the relatives must not only have a proper identity, but also be extremely reliable.

According to traditional marriage customs, the person who sends the kiss should be the woman's brother and sibling. But the situation of Exodus is too special, she is married for the second time, and she is married from her in-law's family, and she is still an orphan girl with unknown parents, where can she find brothers and sisters?

Mrs. Tai thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with a compromise method - the third master, Yunxian, went to see off his relatives, and by the way, let the three rooms be separated, and sent Yunxian to take care of the business in the north.

For this reason, Mrs. Tai specially invited Yun Cheng, Yun Xian, and Zhuying to Rong Jintang to discuss the matter in person.

After Yun Cheng attended Nie Peixiao's wedding ceremony in Jingzhou, he returned to Yanlan City with Yun Xian, just in time for Zhuang Yiran's birth. At that time, I went to Jingzhou to intercede for Shen Yu, and the three of them missed it on the way.

Originally, everyone thought that Shen Yu must be fierce and unlucky, and Xiu must be heartbroken, but who expected that the situation would take a turn for the worse overnight, not only Shen Yu was named the king of Weiyuan, but also Xiu was going to remarry!

Yun Cheng and Yun Xian were surprised by this, and at the same time, they were sincerely happy for Izumi and Shen Yu. Therefore, as soon as Mrs. Tai said that Yun Xian would be the envoy to send her relatives, he agreed to it.

"You take Luan Qing to the Northlands." Mrs. Tai said to Yun Xian, her attitude was very alienated: "I told me in the past that Luan Qing's health is getting worse and worse. This time, Dr. Qu will also go to the wedding ceremony, you take her to see a doctor, maybe she can be cured. ”

When it comes to Luan Qing, time is running out, Yun Xian has made enough psychological preparations, and is not as gloomy as before: "Thank you mother for your concern, my son understands." ”

Mrs. Tai nodded, and said: "In recent years, there have been too many bad luck in the house, so take advantage of the joy of remarrying and let Luan Qing enter the genealogy." ”

"Mother!" Yun Xian was overjoyed when he heard this. He and Luan Qing married in private, and this marriage has not been approved by Mrs. Tai, and it is also a regret before Luan Qing's death. Now that Mrs. Tai suddenly relented, he was naturally pleasantly surprised.

Seeing that he was so excited that he couldn't speak, Mrs. Tai had a trace of impatience on her face: "Okay, you don't have to be grateful to Dade." Anyway, she won't live long, and it can be regarded as a wish of hers. As for you, you must continue the strings as soon as she dies and pass the incense to the Yun family. ”

Yun Xian had thought of this a long time ago, after all, he was the last trace of the old marquis's bloodline, and he must put his heirs first. Luan Qing also looked at it very lightly, and even persuaded him to pay attention to the ladies of the family earlier.

"What the mother said, the son understands in his heart...... Thank you mother for making it happen. Yun Xian knelt down solemnly and kowtowed to Mrs. Tai.

"Hmm." Mrs. Tai nodded, and said undoubtedly: "I'll pay attention to the selection for you, Ye Lingming, the youngest daughter of the Ye family, is good." Since the death of Empress Dowager Ye, the power of the Ye family in Quzhou is not as good as before, and it is not a disadvantage to let Ye Lingcheng give you a continuation. ”

This candidate, Mrs. Tai has been looking at it for a long time. At first, she considered letting Ye Lingcheng marry Yun Cheng, but later because of the relationship between Empress Dowager Ye, she felt that the Zhuang family was more suitable, so she chose Zhuang Yiran;

Now that the Empress Dowager Ye has passed away, all the old grievances have been written off, not to mention that the Empress Dowager Ye also entrusted her beloved son to her old enemy before her death, which can be seen as a kind of trust. Based on this, Mrs. Tai planned to protect the Ye family again and let the Yun and Ye families marry.

Yun Cheng knew the key to this, and when he saw that Mrs. Tai proposed this candidate, he hurriedly agreed: "Miss Lingcheng is very good, with a dignified appearance and a good family background, if it weren't for the delay caused by the death of Empress Dowager Ye, she would have married a long time ago." It can be seen that God is destined to let her wait for the third uncle. ”

Seeing that Yun Cheng reacted very quickly, Mrs. Tai was also very satisfied, and her tone softened a little: "Ye Lingcheng is the niece of Empress Dowager Ye, and her status is not low. There is also Nie Jiu's marriage in front, and the Yun and Ye families can barely be regarded as 'kissing and kissing'. Third, what do you think? ”

Mrs. Tai said this and recognized Luan Qing's name, how could Yun Xian have any reason to oppose it? So he hurriedly replied: "Everything is arranged by my mother." ”

"Well, you're quite sensible." Mrs. Tai thought for a while and said to him: "You hand over the business in Jingzhou, and go back to the house to help Cheng'er first." After marrying Ye Lingcheng, she split up and went out to live alone. Now that the business in the Northland has just been recovered, it is most suitable for you to take care of it in the past, and if you encounter any difficulties, you can also discuss with the nearest Xiu. ”

In Mrs. Tai's heart, she has never been completely at ease with the third room. After all, with Wen Xian's matter in front of her, it was difficult for her to guarantee that Yun Xian had no guilt in her heart, and she didn't want him to face her day by day in Yun Mansion.

It is a good choice to go to the north separately, there is a shortage of manpower in the north, Yun Xian used to be justifiable, and there are Xiu and Yuntan to supervise him, he must be bad. In a few years, when Yun Cheng is full-fledged, Yun Xian will have no "chance" to make his heart.

The heart of defense is indispensable, and Mrs. Tai thinks this plan is very good.

Yun Xian could naturally guess Mrs. Tai's intentions, and knew better that she would not invite Mrs. Tai to see her. Therefore, he could not be more satisfied with this arrangement. Rather than staying in Yunfu to touch the scenery and make love, or to spend all his energy in Jingzhou, he would rather go to the Northland, at least the world is vast and free.

"Since you have no objections, then it is settled. For now, take care of the matter of sending off relatives first, and the rest is not in a hurry. Mrs. Tai easily brought the topic back and continued to discuss Xiu's marriage.

"My son understands that he will not be dishonored." At this moment, Yun Xian couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, and his feelings for Mrs. Tai were a little more complicated, with alienation, mustard, gratitude, understanding, and awe.

Mrs. Tai didn't say anything more to Yun Xian, she made a choice to welcome her relatives, and she talked about the preparation of the dowry: I am going to hand over the dowry to Zhuying this time. ”

"Huh?" Bamboo Shadow was taken aback when she heard this, and thought she was hallucinating.

"What? You don't want to? Mrs. Tai looked a little displeased.

"No, it's not." Zhuying immediately explained, and said with embarrassment: "You also know that the subordinate is from the secret guard......

"What's wrong with the Dark Guard? Yun Feng is dead, and there is a lack of a manager in the mansion now, and my old woman has taken a fancy to you. Mrs. Tai said strongly: "There are so many people under the head manager, and I didn't let you do it yourself, isn't it much easier to use your brain to sharpen your mouth than if you dance with a knife and get a gun?" ”

"Mrs. Tai......" Zhuying subconsciously refused: "I can't do such an important position." ”

"How can you not do it? Not everyone is born to be a housekeeper! Mrs. Tai's tone was a little heavier: "Now that you have a wife and children, do you still want to be the leader of the secret guard?" Do you want Zhu Yang to be widowed? ”

Bamboo Shadow was dumbfounded by this question.

Seeing this, Mrs. Tai said again: "You don't have to be the leader of the dark guard, the practice is to appoint the person by each marquis. Now Jiyuntang's Zhuyi is very talented, and he has been by Cheng'er's side for many years, so it is most suitable for him to take over. How? Are you going to hold on to the position of leader? ”

This crime is too big, where does Zhuying dare to admit it? He was about to open his mouth to explain again, but when he saw that Mrs. Tai crackled again, she said: "The leader of the dark guard is in the dark, and the head of the Yunfu is in the light, is there a more beautiful errand than this?" Why don't you know what to do? Do you have to go to the days of licking blood from the knife edge? ”

Zhuying still didn't dare to agree easily, so he looked at Yun Cheng for advice, and the latter also agreed with this arrangement: "Uncle Zhuying doesn't have to shirk it, my grandmother discussed this matter with me, and I agreed." ”

Yun Xian also took the opportunity to persuade: "You followed the eldest brother, and later served your sister-in-law, you have the ability, you don't have to be arrogant." ”

"This ......" Zhuying was still a little hesitant: "I'm afraid that I will miss the big event in the house." And the dowry of the lady this time...... I can't do it. ”

"What's not to do?" Mrs. Tai stretched out three fingers and said, "How much dowry did we give to Prime Minister Zhuang at the beginning, you just prepare according to this multiple." ”

"Triple times?!" Without waiting for Zhuying to react, Yun Cheng was already speechless: "Grandmother, you really love your mother!" ”

"I'm afraid that Shen Yu will be too cold, so I have to let Xiu subsidize him a little." Mrs. Tai snorted coldly, and pretended to be disdainful: "It's cold and freezing in the north, what do you want, what do you want, and you can't spend money on everything?" Do you think he's a 'King of Weiyuan' who is very rich? ”

Hearing this, Yun Cheng just wanted to laugh, but he couldn't help it.

Mrs. Tai didn't seem to have said enough, and continued to explain endlessly: "Izuku has been the Yun family's housewife for a few years, what haven't I seen or used?" Can she stand it when she gets to the Northland? I can't let her suffer...... What if Shen Yu can't support her and embezzles military salary? ”

Having said that, everyone present could hear that Mrs. Tai was deliberately looking for a reason to step down for herself. In fact, she couldn't be more distressed about Izuxiu, and she was satisfied with Shen Yu.

"You give your mother so much to dowry, even if the imperial court does not pay military salaries for three years, it is enough for Uncle Shen to subsidize the soldiers in the north." Yun Cheng jokingly answered.

"He dares! The military salary asked him to find Nie Qi to go! Mrs. Tai also had a smile on her face, and looked at Zhuying and said, "I have explained this, if you shirk it again, you will be too ignorant of lifting." ”

Indeed, with the attention and trust of Mrs. Tai, Zhuying had no choice but to bite the bullet: "My subordinates can only try their best." ”

"Buying a dowry is poor, and others don't have a chance to make it if they want to, so you are reluctant." Mrs. Tai smiled and quipped Zhuying: "You just have to let go and prepare, whether the dowry is more or less, good or bad, can you still blame you?" Even if you swallow half of it, she won't say anything. ”

"That's just as well." Bamboo Shadow smiled self-deprecatingly, and simply joked to herself.

"Okay, take over the position of the leader of the dark guard within five days, and you and Zhu Yi will take office as soon as possible!" Mrs. Tai gave a death order to Zhuying, and waved her hand at the three of them: "I said that my mouth is dry today, so let's discuss it here for the time being, you all go down." ”

"Yes. The grandson (son, subordinate) retired. Yun Cheng, Yun Xian, and Zhu Ying replied in unison, respectfully exiting one by one.

After seeing that the three of them had walked away, Chi's mother came out of the cubicle and smiled at Mrs. Tai: "You can rectify the third master and Zhuying, and the errand is heavier than the other." ”

"It's time to put the burden on them." Mrs. Tai sighed: "There are fewer and fewer people in the house who can use it, and I am always afraid that I will suddenly close my eyes and leave this big family with no way to live." ”

"How can you say something unlucky?" Chi's mother smiled and said, "Now it's a lively time in the house." Xiao Shizi was born, his wife remarried, and the third master agreed to renew the string...... You should be teasing Sun. ”

"Teasing Sun? I would like to! They don't have to look for trouble. Mrs. Tai sighed: "Think about it, the death-free gold medal is useless, but it looks like I earned it." ”

"Thanks to Lord Zhuang for delivering the news to you, otherwise, before King Jingyi entered the palace, the secret guard would have sent the death-free gold medal to King Cheng's mansion." Chi's mother paused for a moment and joked: "If your daughter-in-law remarries and you give so much dowry, it is twice as much as that of your granddaughter-in-law, if Master Zhuang knows about this, I don't know if he will regret helping you?" ”
