Chapter 492: A Strange Sending Procession

Wu Chuan's words made Su Qi'an frown slightly, he didn't have to refuse Wu Chuan's kindness, but he always felt that this Hanzhong county guard seemed to have something to hide from him.

At this moment, Xie Cang, who was outside the carriage, spoke, "Brother Su, I think this is also the kindness of Lord Wu, after all, this is his territory, and it is his duty to protect your safety, I don't think there is any need to refuse the kindness of Wu Junshou." ”

Xie Cang spoke for Wu Chuan, Su Qi'an's eyes flashed, he realized something, nodded, and said softly.

"In this case, I will trouble Wu Junshou this time, but in order to cause unnecessary commotion, I think Wu Junshou should get in the car and accompany Ben Hou to set off."

Wu Chuan's face was a little hesitant, but he quickly returned to normal, and nodded yes, "The lower official respectfully obeys the orders of the Hou Ye." ”

After all, at this time, if Wu Chuan refused, it would arouse everyone's suspicions.

Wu Chuan motioned for the officials behind him to disperse, and not long after, got into the carriage.

Immediately afterwards, about a hundred or so soldiers quickly stepped forward and surrounded Su Qi'an's carriage.

That level of intensity, it gives a rather tight feeling.

Wu Chuan, who got into the carriage, sat opposite Su Qi'an, and looked at Su Qi'an by chance.

But for the tense atmosphere outside the carriage, Su Qi'an acted as if he hadn't seen it, his eyes were slightly closed, and he was resting.

At this scene, Wu Chuan's heart was slightly relieved, and he motioned for the guards to set off.

Under the protection of these 100 or so soldiers, not to mention Su Qi'an's two carriages, even Xie Cang and Su Yong, the accompanying guards, were protected by airtightness.

Such a big battle, with the entry into Hanzhong County, naturally caused a little commotion.

But it was quickly quelled by the soldiers of the guards, and the people in the streets, each of them retreated, and suddenly vacated the middle of the street.

They all lowered their heads, but their mouths were whispering.

There are not many people who can have such a big battle, let the soldiers of the county government dispatch, and have this treatment.

Although they didn't know who was sitting in the carriage, they were sure that it was a big man they couldn't afford to mess with.

As the carriage slowly marched, Wu Chuan kept looking ahead, and his face always remained on high alert, for fear that something would happen.

At this time, Su Qi'an, who was sitting next to him, suddenly sounded his voice.

"Hehe, Master Wu, why are you so nervous, you are also the county guard of a county, you were not necessarily so nervous when you surrounded and suppressed me back then, and today you are escorting Ben Hou, so nervous, what, isn't there something wrong with Lord Wu, hiding from Ben Hou?"

When he said this, Wu Chuan's face changed greatly, if it weren't for the small space in the car, Wu Chuan would definitely kneel down and explain to Su Qi'an.

Wu Chuan waved his hand and hurriedly said, "Hou... Hou Ye misunderstood, the lower official has absolutely nothing to hide from you. ”

"Hou Ye can ignore the past suspicions, let the lower officials continue to serve as the county guard of Hanzhong, the lower officials are not in a hurry to be grateful for the kindness of the Hou Ye, how can there be something to hide from the Hou Ye, if there is a violation, the lower officials are willing to accept any punishment."

"I'm just worried about the safety of Hou Ye, as long as Hou Ye can go out of the city, Xia Guan will be relieved."

Wu Chuan's expression was serious, and he almost felt like he had raised his hand and swore an oath.

Wu Chuan's appearance made Su Qi'an laugh, and he patted Wu Chuan's shoulder with a smile and said.

"Hehe, Master Wu, don't be so nervous, Ben Hou is just joking with you, the atmosphere in the car is too tense, as if something big has happened."

"Lord Wu's loyalty, Benhou still knows, otherwise, it is impossible to appoint you to continue to serve as the county guard, put your heart in your stomach, and when Benhou leaves the city, your task will be completed."

"There's no need to be so nervous."

Wu Chuan nodded awkwardly, "What Master Hou said is true." ”

The convoy continued on its way, about half of the way, and after passing two streets ahead, it was considered out of town.

Wu Chuan's hanging heart gradually let go as time passed.

At this moment, suddenly, the advancing team stopped, and this move made Wu Chuan stunned.

After a while, among the soldiers in front, news soon came, and coincidentally, in front of the street where they were traveling, they were catching up with the send-off procession, and directly blocked their way.

Wu Chuan frowned, and just wanted to get out of the car and say something, but was stopped by Su Qi'an.

He smiled and said, "Master Wu, don't be so anxious, in this world, there is a joy and a funeral, everything is too big for these two things, in the final analysis, it is still our fault, the team is too large, and it occupies the road of others." ”

"That's it, pass on Benhou's order, the convoy retreats, and makes way for the relatives to be sent, which can be regarded as joy."

Su Yong, who got the order, nodded and immediately passed on Su Qi'an's words.

After a while, the convoy and the soldiers of the escort slowly retreated at a slow pace.

After passing through an alley, I retreated in, and finally made a way for the family send-off team.

Su Qi'an sat in the car, and through the curtain, curiously looked at the family send-off team that was about to pass in front of them.

It is also a happy event to be able to meet the matter of sending relatives on the road, and with the knocking and beating of the family sending team all the way, Su Qi'an discovered a special thing.

There are two big red sedan chairs for this family.

This is very unusual, the monogamous and polygamous concubine system is implemented in Daliang, men, three wives and four concubines are normal.

Even if it is Jiaozhou, which is under the jurisdiction of Su Qi'an, his base camp, he cannot abolish this system with a mandatory order and directly copy the modern husband and wife system.

If this were the case, his internal affairs would have been unstable a long time ago, and this kind of husband and wife system would be similar to the supremacy of imperial power.

Just relying on Su Qi'an, one person, in one word, it is impossible to completely reverse it.

It is not external forces that have imprisoned them, but feudal ideas that have been passed down for thousands of years.

If you want to abolish it, it is impossible without the efforts of several generations, so Su Qi'an has adopted a relatively compromise approach to the territory under his jurisdiction.

The conjugal system is polygamous, and the status of concubines is abolished, and as long as they marry, wives are of equal status.

Not only that, all marriages must be willing, both parties must be willing, can not be forced to buy and sell, if during the marriage, it is found that there is a beating and scolding of the wife, do not treat the wife as a person, you can report to the official.

The government has formulated a series of punishment laws for this kind of thing, such as a military stick at the lightest, a prison sentence at the worst, and the most important one, the wife can still be separated.

Of course, there was still a lot of resistance to promoting this kind of marriage system at the beginning, and it was not very smooth.

This matter can be solved, Su Fengling has made great efforts, with the support of this ninth princess, plus Su Qi'an's own example.

Even if there is great resistance, it will be promoted after all, and after three years of development, the marriage system in Jiaozhou is basically developing in the direction of Su Qi'an.

In the end, with the joint efforts of Su Qi'an and Su Fengling, a women's federation organization was established in Jiaozhou.

is specially used to protect the legitimate rights and interests of women in Jiaozhou, if it weren't for Su Fengling's early return to Kyoto, the president of the Women's Federation in Jiaozhou would be her.

This is the result of Su Qi'an's promotion in his own territory, like Xizhou, it will take time to reach Jiaozhou.

Therefore, the wife in Xizhou is not much different from other places in Daliang.

Su Qi'an was surprised not that Xizhou married a wife and Jiaozhou differently, but that he married two people at a time, which is very rare in other places.

Seeing the two big red sedan chairs coming slowly, Su Qi'an's eyes flashed, and he didn't have any intention of stopping them.

After all, this marriage is a matter for the locals, although they are married to two, but maybe it is the two parties who are willing to do it, Su Qi'an rashly came forward, and it will be bad if it is not good.

"Hehe, this groom official is really a blessing, one marriage and two marriages, tsk, I don't know if Master Wu knows which groom official this groom is?"

When Su Qi'an said this, Wu Chuan's face changed slightly, and he looked at Su Qi'an and shook his head and said, "Master Hou is embarrassed, there are many famous families in Hanzhong County, if you don't deliberately inquire, I really don't know who this groom official is." ”

"Since Hou Ye wants to know, Xia Guan will ask for Hou Ye."

As he spoke, Wu Chuan wanted to open his mouth and command his soldiers, but Su Qi'an waved his hand.

"Hey, there's no need for it, let's just take a look, if we are blessed, we won't bother others to marry, let's go, we've seen enough, let's go."

Wu Chuan nodded, his hand hidden under the official robe, relaxed slightly, and motioned for the soldiers to set off.

Just two big red sedan chairs, accompanied by a joyful knock from Su Qi'an's carriage, passed by.

Suddenly, without warning, the two sedan chairs shook wildly, making the sedan chair bearer unstable, and the sedan chair almost overturned.

The sedan chair man exerted his strength, which was regarded as stabilizing the sedan chair, just when the sedan chair man breathed a little relief in his heart and continued to move forward.

Sou! Sou!

Almost one in front of the other, in the two sedan chairs, two people burst out at once.

These two people are the brides of the sedan chair, and the moment they burst out, they were planted on the ground at once.

The red hijab on the head is half leaked, although not all of the faces are leaked, but the white and smooth half of the cheeks makes people guess that these two brides are definitely beautiful.

It's just that everyone present, together with Su Qi'an, didn't have the heart to pay attention to what kind of fairy beauty the two brides were.

Because the hands and feet of the two brides were tied, even their mouths were tied with a red cloth.

Everyone watching this scene exclaimed in surprise, and a whisper sounded.

"Shhh What's going on? Tie up the bride? ”

"Shhh, you can be quiet, and don't see whose family is marrying, that family is a good person in our Hanzhong County, you don't say a few words."

"That is, with the people of their family, how could they do this, maybe this bride was deliberately made like this, just to make that family ugly."

"I see, what you said makes sense."

All kinds of whispers came to her face, making the matchmaker who sent her relatives gloomy, and she turned her head and scolded the sedan chair man.

"Useless waste, why are you stunned, why don't you help the bride up, quickly cover the red hijab, if you delay the business, you know the end."

was scolded by the matchmaker, and the sedan chair drivers immediately came back to their senses in fright, hurriedly stepped forward, supported the bride, and were about to stuff it into the sedan chair.
