Li Qingwan and Li Qingzhao lost their mother when they were young, and their father also died early. The Wang family has a lot of relatives, but unfortunately since his father Li Gefei was imprisoned, no one has helped him, and the two have not interacted with him much. In this wedding, Mrs. He and Mrs. Sanruan are their high halls.

Hu Sanniang is relatively simple, the elder brother Hu Cheng, and the father Hu Lao Lao are all in Chaojiazhuang. Master Li is accompanied by Li's mother and a former maid.

Huazi has a brother and sister-in-law and invites.

Yelu Dali has a fourth brother, Yelu Zonglin, and he also repaired a book and sent it to Jizhou City in the north.

Most of the weddings were organized by a few ladies, and the appearance of the roaring made Chao Gai sigh. How can there be such a play, blinding other people's eyes.

As the days go by, the days go by.

The village is like the New Year, the streets are full of people, and the people are jubilant. Not only are there various promotional activities in the wedding city of King Chao, but you can also go to the welfare station to receive a few catties of beef and mutton to improve your food.

The most important thing is that the carts full of golden rice are like long queues. Outside the city, in the threshing floor, it is dried and threshed for storage or sent to the mill.

After the tens of thousands of acres of land reclaimed last year were fertilized, the planting was bumper. These lands are all owned by Chao Gai, and the people are responsible for farming without paying taxes, and only need to pay 20% of the grain to Chaojiazhuang, and the rest goes to individuals.

There will be no exploitation, this is the beginning of a good life!

It is precisely because of this situation that it attracts displaced people or distant daylight to settle down.

In late July, the climate gradually turns from hot to cool!

The people of Chaojiazhuang got new vegetable seeds and began to sow them on the ridges. It was flat pepper seeds, the super spicy kind.

The day of the wedding of Chao Gai, the king of Shandong, was just three days later.

A team of more than twenty people came from the east, without flags, and a few ordinary carriages. But this is the car of Jeju's new governor Jang Shuye, looking at the large area of reclaimed farmland through the car curtain, looking at the smiling people, and looking at the city that is getting closer and closer, and his resolute face is more or less incredible.

A year ago, it was really just a village!?

This famous virtuous and virtuous general of the Great Song Dynasty was in a very complicated mood at this time.

The reputation of Chao Gai, the king of Shandong, is too loud, not to mention Jeju, who doesn't give face to the officials of the surrounding state capitals? He led the team to resist the Liangshan strongmen. There had been no looting for months, and it was peaceful.

Chaojiazhuang is booming, and the monthly tax paid is the first in the state. But in this unconstrained place, the inability of the government to intervene is a manifestation of ambition. The court didn't care, it didn't mean that he didn't see the clue at night.

Chaojiazhuang ganged up, secretly colluded with former officials, and recruited troops everywhere. Nominally to suppress bandits, in fact to strengthen themselves. Three battalions forbade the army, and the imperial court gave three battalions to the establishment, plus tens of thousands of guards.

If Shandong Tianwang Chao Gai is dedicated to the country, he is definitely a capable minister of celebrities through the ages. But if this raises his arms and shouts, the whole Shandong will be surnamed Chao.

Because Zhang Shuye saw this, he reported to the court many times. It's a pity that the news is like a stone sinking into the sea, and no one cares about it in the court. It seems that Shandong has a strong place, but vigorously supports it.

I don't know if I look down on Chao Gai or don't pay attention to it at all. If it is not restrained now, it will eventually become a catastrophe for the climate and shake the foundation of the country.

"Wow, King Chao is really powerful, this city alone is more magnificent than the Daimyo's Mansion. Look at the moat, twenty or thirty meters wide, it's amazing. ”

"No wonder the people praise King Chao, with him in charge, Jeju has no worries!"

The team was getting closer and closer to the city, and everyone exclaimed in surprise to pull back Zhang Taishou's thoughts.

"Hey, there are many traitors in the court, blinding the saints, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse." Uncle Zhang looked up at the majestic city and muttered in a low voice. It is taller than Jeju City, and it is better than the Daimyo Mansion in Beijing.

Zhang Taishou has two sons, the eldest son is named Zhang Bofen, and the younger son is Zhang Zhongxiong. Chao Gai visited and saw it last time, two young men.

Zhang Bofen is twenty-three or four years old, skilled in arching horses, able to write and martial arts, has been riding around the carriage of the escort team, heard his father's sigh, and was a little curious: "Why does my father sigh?" Isn't it a good thing that Jeju has the head of Chao sitting in Shuibo? Why do you look so worried? ”

Another eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy approached and pointed to Chaojiazhuang and exclaimed: "Father, look at the soldiers on the city wall, all of them are holding their heads high, and everyone is waiting for them. Look at our crooked melons and cracked dates. Because of this, have you ever been a bandit since you took office? King Chao Tianwang personally came to Jeju City to visit and send invitations, which is reasonable and should be happy. ”

"Hehehe, what my son said is very true! It's just that my father has some worries in my heart. Uncle Zhang saw that his two sons wanted to refute at night, but he felt that what he said was very right and had nothing to say, so he looked at the tall city wall and shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Chao Tianwang, the capable minister who rules the world, and the hero of the troubled times!"

Zhang Bofen frowned and said nothing when he heard this, but Zhang Zhongxiong couldn't hide his admiration: "Father, I heard that King Chao Tianwang rose from Weimo and expanded the village into a city. Helping the poor and helping the people is quite famous in Jeju. ”

Uncle Zhang looked at his youngest son who admired Chao Gai a little, and his mood became even heavier. Thinking about it, Chao Gai has only visited once, and he has such a charm. His son, who is not convinced by anyone, has changed so much.

Shandong Chaogai is really not ordinary!

When Taishou had something in his heart, he looked at Chaojiazhuang in a daze.

At this time, an incredible roar came from behind the team: "Ouch, this is Chaojiazhuang?" We're not on the wrong path? Is this a village? ”

It was a team, more than a dozen people, all armed with sharp weapons, all riding tall horses, and there were also carriages in the team, and they came from afar.

At the front, a big man with a mace in his hand stared at Chaojiazhuang, his face full of incredulity. Asked the people around him, the latter was speechless.

"General Qin, you can't go wrong, I asked several people." A white-horse general who followed the carriage smiled in amazement.

"Hahaha, Chao Tianwang is really good, it's not for me and other martial artists to speculate." The big man named General Qin laughed when he came back to his senses. led the team to overtake Uncle Zhang's convoy at night and went straight to Chaojiazhuang.

It was none other than Qin Ming, the thunderbolt who rushed over from Qingzhou, and Huang Xin, the town of Sanshan. Accompanied by Xiao Li Guanghuarong and his wife, he participated in the wedding.

Whether it is Uncle Zhang's night convoy or a visitor from Qingzhou, he has long been discovered by restaurant scouts. The news has been transmitted back to Chaojiazhuang, and a greeting team has also been dispatched.

Xiao Wenhou Lu Fang, street rat Zhang San, grass snake Li Si and other generals led the personal guards, on behalf of Chao Gai and several ladies to welcome the distinguished guests into Chaojiazhuang.

Outside, you can only feel the majestic city, and you can feel its liveliness more intuitively after entering the city. The streets were filled with the sound of gongs and drums and shouts, and pedestrians were crowded with each other. Singing and dancing gather a group of people, and those who push are everywhere.

If it weren't for the prohibition of pedestrian crowding on the carriage and horse paths, it would be difficult to walk in the city. People from all over the country poured in, factories were on holiday, and there were crowds of people.

Jeju Jang Shuye's family was dazzled, and Jang Taishou saw the heartfelt smiles of the people and this prosperous scene, and the kind of entanglement was even worse.

Hua Rong from Qingzhou is not calm in his heart, one is happy for his little sister, and the other is sad for the court, a hero like Chao Gai doesn't want to be an official, but he wants to rebel. This is a misfortune for the court, and the people are very fortunate.

Only Qin Ming and Huang Xin, who were in the thunderbolt fire, looked at the old Bao drama dancing on the street and grinned non-stop, only feeling that Chaojiazhuang was more lively than Qingzhou.

The two teams came to Chaofu one after the other.

Zhiduoxing Wu Yong, the pharmacist Xiao Jiasui led people to greet him, and after greetings, he invited two weighty viewing teams to invite him into the Chao Mansion to entertain.

Thunderbolt fire Qin Ming, Uncle Zhang, as a guest of honor to watch the ceremony, was warmly entertained. Not only did he set up an independent courtyard in Chaofu, but Chao Gai also had to meet him personally. From seven or eight days, when the person who accepts the invitation comes, he will make an appearance.

This period of time can be played badly, back and forth, endlessly tossing and turning, not to mention losing several pounds. In addition to the vicissitudes of life, the face is tired. finally realized why heroes don't get close to women, because they are afraid of trouble.

It's too difficult to get married!

"Lord Zhang, Chao is very busy, and if you miss the distance, please invite Haihan." Chao Gai came to the living room, the smile on his face a little stiff.

"Congratulations, congratulations, Governor Chao." Uncle Zhang is also an old fritter in officialdom, with a very sincere smile, and he talks New Year's greetings with an old watch.

Chao Gai had already adapted to this atmosphere, and talked to the Xianchen family one by one, and then asked his subordinates to entertain him properly, smiled and left: "Lord Zhang and Ling Gongzi want to have a good time here, don't be polite." ”

After that, he went to see Qin Ming and Huang Xin of Zhensanshan, and he had a lot of casual conversations with these two acquaintances, talked about the past of Qingzhou, and left again.

until I came to the study of Chaofu.

Xiao Li Guanghuarong, Cui's as a family member, Chao Kang personally received and went to the study. For the mother's family of the lady's family, Chao Gai hurried over.

I met with Hua Rong Xiang Cui Yue and talked about the wedding a few days later. asked the guards to take the couple to the temporarily rented courtyard in the city. Huazi lived there and had never seen each other since she left Chaofu.

Chao Gai sent Hua Rong and his wife away, and went to meet him elsewhere.

Seeing the tiredness in his eyes, the iron ledger Chao Fu showed a smile from the person who came over: "Master, hold on!" After this time, it will be much easier to take a concubine in the future. ”

"A concubine? Nana... Get a feather duster! Chao Gai almost fell down with a stumbling footstep, and turned his head to look at Chao Fu as if he had seen through the red dust of the world.

For the next few days, Chao Gai was on his way to receive VIPs and receptions. For example, Yuncheng magistrate Shi Wenbin, beautiful bearded prince Zhu Tong, winged tiger Lei Heng and other Yuncheng officials, as well as officials from several other counties gathered.

But one more person didn't come.

Yuncheng officials, the first charge secretary and timely rain Song Jiang Song Gongming, it is said that he is really sick. I don't know if it's true or not, anyway, I took sick leave for more than ten days.

Chao Gai was so busy that he was about to fly, he really didn't bother to care about these little characters, and he didn't bother to pay attention to why he didn't come? If you don't come, you won't come, and if you come, you will respond.

As he expected, the more things came to the wedding. Chao Gai counted the days approaching, remembering his single life.
