Volume 1 Chapter 213 Crown Ceremony (2)
At this time, many guests had come to the Xu family ancestral hall one after another.
Among them, there are many officials who are four or five grades when they are in office.
But as soon as everyone heard about the Songjiang Shen family, they all stood up unconsciously.
The Shen family in Songjiang, the father and son, is the largest family in the entire southeast in terms of fame, family reputation, and wealth.
This......
The guests turned their heads one after another and said: "Xiao Shigong actually invited the Songjiang Shen family to watch the ceremony for a small sect in the family, which is also too ......."
The other shook his head: "What's this?" Do you think the name of Xiao Sanyuan is so easy to get? Let's go south straight to the first one, give me home, and I'll do a big job! ”
"After all, it's the Shen family's ......, isn't it a bit too much!"
……
When Xu He heard Songjiang Shen's family, he smiled bitterly, he already knew who was coming.
Sure enough, in the next second, Shen Xuan entered the courtyard with a smile on his face, and as soon as he entered the door, he walked under the guidance of Xu Dai, and bowed to the incumbent and registered officials around him.
"It turned out to be Shen Xuan, the sister-in-law of the Shen family!"
"It is said that this son has been talented and intelligent since he was a child, and the two elders of the Shen family value him very much! Some people even said that the Shen family wants to be rich and noble for three generations, and one of them should be on this Shen Xuan. ”
"I think this person sees it quite accurately, I heard that this Shen Xuan is especially good at economics, and in his early twenties, he takes care of the family property on behalf of the Shen family, don't you see that the Shen family has become more and more prosperous over the years!"
At this time, Shen Xuan had already walked to the bottom of the steps of the Xu family ancestral hall, and saw him bow to Xu He and smiled: "Xiaohe, you do the crown salute but don't call me, you will be angry as a brother!" ”
When everyone heard this, they knew that this Shen Xuan actually knew Xu He, and he was so familiar.
Everyone thought that the Shen family was invited by Xu Song, but it seems that ......
Xu He smiled bitterly: "Since I returned from Jinling, as soon as I arrived home, my uncle set a date, and I really didn't have time to inform him, so Brother Shen forgave me!" ”
While the two were talking, Xu Dai, who had just returned to the door, called again: "Dali Temple Qing Yiling Gong congratulates Xu Mansion Xu He crown ceremony!" ”
As soon as these words were spoken, the people in the courtyard were not calm.
"The Yiling Xie family is also here!"
"Is Yiling Gong also here for Xu He?"
"Did you hear that? Recently, there has been unrest in the cabinet, and Lord Shoufu intends to add two more cabinet members to contain Xia Cifu, and it is said that Yiling Gong is one of the candidates! ”
"Ho, the hometown of Zhishi Pavilion is here, and the hometown of the Future Pavilion is also here, this Xu He has a big face!"
……
While everyone was talking, Xu He saw his sassy brother walking in with a smile on his face.
When they first met, he was familiar with Xu He and was not formal, and he didn't greet the main master for the first time, but said to Shen Xuan: "Brother Zongqi, what kind of wind blew you here?" ”
Shen Xuan said meaningfully: "Brother Defu, I only allow you to come, but I can't?" ”
After that, he looked at Xu He with a resentful expression, the meaning couldn't be more obvious, what did it mean? Xie Defu's family came with a burden, and they were prepared at first glance, so you notified me in advance, why didn't you inform me.
Xu He couldn't understand, so he could only smile and keep silent.
Seeing this, Xie Liangcai smiled and said, "The mother of the little crane is my aunt, Brother Zongqi, don't eat it!" ”
While a few people were talking, they only heard the door sing again: "Shanyang Hou Mansion He Xu Mansion Xu Gongzi, ten special Lan shirts, twenty volumes!" ”
This time, the guests didn't want to talk anymore.
I didn't expect this Xu He to have a friendship with the Xungui family.
Shanyang Hou Xue's family, that is the founding of the country, although the noble family has been suppressed over the years, but it is also noble, and the ancestors of the family are really broad.
Also, the Marquis Xue family of Shanyang has been married to the royal family for generations, and the current Marquis Xue is the cousin-in-law of the current saint.
This......
At this time, everyone could no longer figure out whether this was the relationship between the Xu family or the relationship between Xu He, but no matter whose relationship it was, in short, it was too shocking.
But they still underestimated the Xu family and Xu He.
Yangzhou Mansion, prefect Peng Ruyu, general sentence Li Zhijie, push official Xie Bin, Yangzhou Wei Chen commander, Sun Yanshi.
Hailing County, Chen County, Hu County.
Zhang Bingxian of Haiphong Road, Wang Qianhu of Hailing.
All of these people were gifted, and even Zhang Jingxian and Chen Hua were present in person.
Just when everyone was shocked, a person who made Xu He unexpectedly appeared in the Xu family ancestral hall.
"Teacher!"
It turned out that Li Zhijie, the general judge of Yangzhou Mansion who had not been seen for a long time, had arrived.
Li Zhijie has obviously lost a lot of weight these days, and he doesn't know what he's busy with, but no matter how busy he is, he still finds time to participate in his student's crown ceremony.
"I am entrusted by Xiao Shi Gong to serve as your crown gift!" Li Zhijie looked at his disciple with a smile, with praise, recognition, and relief in his eyes.
Xu He nodded movingly, this move is to move the teacher to help him be crowned in his busy schedule, and it is also moved to Xu Song to do his best for himself.
In fact, the uncle has been able to get up for a while, at least the crowning ceremony should be no problem, but he still gave up the position of this [Bin] to Li Zhijie, needless to say that Xu He knows his thoughts, it is nothing more than to make his bond with the teacher deeper.
When Li Zhijie's [guest] arrived, the old Jiachang came out to greet him on behalf of the main family, only to see him bow and invite Li Zhijie to enter the Xu family ancestral hall.
After Li Zhijie sat down, Chen Hua came to greet him.
Chen Hua is the [like] of the crown ceremony, [like] is the auxiliary of [bin], some things pay attention to the sense of ceremony, and praise is responsible for the role of transmission in it.
I saw that the people were almost there.
Chen Hua, the county magistrate, personally took the heads, such as the head, the grate, and the head of the mantle [Yinqiao, the headscarf that tied the hair], and placed them on the south side of a plain mat on the ground.
Li Zhijie arched his hand towards Xu He.
Seeing this, Xu He hurriedly followed the steps taught by the elders in advance, and knelt down on the seat.
Chen Hua personally helped him with his hair, in fact, he brushed his hair, and then tied his hair above his head, and after putting on the veil, Li Zhijie went down the steps, and the old armor chief also accompanied him to stand on the east steps.
I saw Li Zhijie wash his hands in the place where he washed, and returned to his original position from the west steps.
Chen Hua took out a headscarf at this time and handed it to Li Zhijie.
Li Zhijie took the turban at the next step, came to Xu He and said, "Today is auspicious, Erjiaguan admits it." May you be generous, filial piety, respect and love, and blessings will come! ”
With that, he knelt beside Xu He, helped him put on his headscarf, and then got up and returned to his original position.
Seeing this, Xu He said: "A certain person is not smart, sooner or later he will be taught!" ”
Don't be surprised, this set of rhetoric was stipulated by the grandfather, and the Shishu are all the same, and they can't be changed at will.
After Xu He finished speaking, Li Zhijie asked him to change his clothes in a small room on the side, and then the same process was followed, so that the crowning was completed three times.
When Li Zhijie helped Xu He put on his servant's head, finally, the lengthy coronation ceremony came to an end.
According to the rules, it should be time to pick up the words and eat the feast.
But in the arrangement of the Xu family, there is a major event to be interspersed this time.
I only heard a crackling sound outside.
Several young people of the Xu family came to the front of the hall with two plaques, only to see that the two plaques were covered with red silk, and with the sound of artillery outside, the patriarch of the Xu family, Xu Song, the waiter of the Ministry of Labor, slowly walked out with the support of the two subordinates of the Xu family.
