Chapter 110: Marriage
Winter has gone to spring, and it is time to hold the spring pilgrimage again, and there is a light snow in the sky.
Mu Sheng, as a member of the royal family, also wanted to participate, he Shi Shiran came to the main hall of the Jin Palace, returned to a large hall, and looked at the empty throne in the middle.
Under the throne of the main hall is the seat of the crown prince, as usual, this year is still the crown prince His Royal Highness is presiding over the court meeting on behalf of the emperor, and the ministers and workers under the leadership of the prince worship the emperor in the direction of the Taiji Palace.
After the worship is over, all the ministers and workers also come forward one by one to present New Year's greetings, nothing more than all kinds of patting the emperor's dragon fart like the water of the Yellow River, gushing endlessly, and the congratulatory table will be presented to the Taiji Palace for the emperor's imperial view.
Mu Sheng naturally will not be left behind, after offering a congratulatory message, he will honestly return to his position, and after a while, a group of good dancing singers came to the center of the hall to dance, and the large-scale singing and dancing banquet officially began.
In the main hall, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the ministers laughed and talked, Mu Sheng's heart moved, and he also stepped forward to greet the prince.
When the prince saw him coming, he hurriedly greeted, "Brother Sheng, come!" Come! Sit next to me. ”
Mu Sheng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, there is a difference between the monarch and the minister, how dare the younger brother exceed the rules and sit on an equal footing with His Royal Highness." ”
The prince pretended to be angry and said, "Brother Sheng, you are out of sight, no matter the monarch and the minister today, only the brothers, everyone should be happy and happy for the New Year, does Brother Sheng have to let me give an order to come and sit at the same table?" ”
Seeing that he was still unmoved, the prince said directly, "You can relax, even if your father and the emperor know about this, they won't blame you." ”
When Mu Sheng heard this, he understood that the prince actually knew in his heart what the old man's purpose was in lifting him up.
Mu Sheng had no choice but to smile bitterly and bow to the prince and sit beside him, and the ministers saw Chang Pingjun sitting next to the prince, and they also exchanged words and discussions.
Until the end of the court, although Mu Sheng didn't know what medicine His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bought in the gourd, the two of them were able to win the double actor on the surface.
After the court meeting, Mu Sheng had just arrived home, Yun'er hurriedly pulled him to the lobby, and said as she walked, "Emperor Gongzi has a will, and the chief of the inner chamberlain, Lu Gong, is waiting in the house." ”
Seeing that Mu Sheng was coming, Gonggong Lu said with a smile, "Changpingjun, Your Majesty has a will. ”
Mu Sheng hurriedly knelt down to listen to the order.
After listening to the reading of the edict, Mu Sheng's heart was also mixed, it turned out to be the will of marriage, and it was also sixteen years old at the beginning of spring this year, and he had indeed reached the age of marriage, saying that he was married to a daughter of the Anyang Tian family.
Anyang Tian clan is the hometown of the Lu country, the ancestors of the era of the hegemony of the countries used to be the secretary of the Lu state, the clansmen have served as senior officials of the Lu country, prime ministers and other official positions, proper wealthy families, after the unification of the Jin State in order to weaken the influence of these big clans in the local area, most of them were moved to Qingyang, the capital of the clan.
It turned out to be after the Lords of the Seven Kingdoms? Mu Sheng sighed secretly in his heart, this is the marriage of this era, the words of the matchmaker of the parents, no one has seen anyone before marriage, marrying a daughter-in-law is like opening a blind box, you can't help it, I didn't expect that it was my turn to open the blind box today.
After Gonggong Lu finished reading the edict, Mu Sheng respectfully stepped forward to receive the edict and thanked him, "Chief Manager Lu is coming from afar, and this gentleman has prepared some refreshments, and I also invite the chief manager to taste them." ”
Lu Liang smiled and refused, "Changping Jun's heart is understood by the old slave, Your Majesty is still waiting for the old slave's reply, don't delay for a moment, and look forward to Changping Jun Haihan." ”
Mu Sheng smiled: "Okay! The manager is busy with official business, so I won't bother. ”
Mu Sheng beckoned, and the two temple people held a box covered with red cloth and presented it to Gonggong Lu and said, "The chief manager is from afar, bringing such good news, this gentleman can't respect the friendship of the landlord, it's a pity, this little gift is also hoped that the head of Lu will never shirk." ”
Lu Liang smiled and excused himself: "Hey! Changpingjun, this can't be helped, the old slave is just here on an errand, it's a business matter, how can he receive gifts? ”
Mu Sheng smiled slightly and said, "Where is Mr. Lu, I heard that my father gave me a marriage, such a happy thing, of course, it is a joy and congratulations, when I think of the wedding day, Mr. Lu can't come here on an errand in the palace, I feel a little regretful." ”
Mu Sheng lifted the lid of the box and said, "Mr. Lu, you see, this is just some special pastries specially made by me, there is nothing special, just to compensate for the regret that you can't come to the scene to celebrate, this is just some ordinary things, don't shirk it." ”
Lu Liang saw that it was indeed just some pastry boxes, and he was a little disappointed in his heart, but he still happily let the entourage accept it, after all, this was Changpingjun's intention, and he couldn't sweep the face of this royal celebrity.
Lu Liang smiled and said, "Changping Jun has a heart, it is a pastry, this is not a gift, the old slave will return to the palace to revert." ”
When Mu Sheng heard this, he personally sent Gonggong Lu to the door and said, "Manager Lu, this pastry manager has to taste it in person, so I will not send it far away." ”
Lu Liang's heart moved when he heard this, and he probably heard that there was something in his words, so he said to Mu Sheng, "Changping Jun is polite, the things that Changping Jun rewarded, the old slave must be personally tasted." ”
After sending off Gonggong Lu, Mu Sheng laughed secretly in his heart and went back to the house.
Lu Liang got into the car, took the food boxes sent by Changping Jun and took a closer look, touched up and down and didn't find any dark grid, when he was wondering, Lu Liang stared at the dim sum in the box, noticed something different, and took out a piece and held it in the palm of his hand, it was indeed heavy.
Lu Liang's heart moved, and with a pinch of his thumb, he revealed the true face of the golden pastry, it turned out that the surface of this snack was only wrapped in a thin layer of dots, but the inside was yellow and clear gold, Lu Liang looked at the four food boxes in the car, and estimated the number of snacks in the box, and the four boxes added up to 50,000 gold.
Lu Liang smiled at the corner of his mouth, and muttered to himself, "Changpingjun really has a heart......
Changping Jun's house
Yun'er heard that Mu Sheng was married, and she was also happy for him for a while, and said, "It seems that another sister is about to enter the door." ”
Mu Sheng scratched her cute nose dotingly and said, "In my heart, you are my wife." ”
Yun'er said shyly, "Hmm! The son doesn't dare to say that, in the future, there will be a master mother in the Changping Monarch's mansion, and the eldest is orderly, and the concubine will not dare to trespass. ”
Mu Sheng smiled: "Hmph! It's me who really calls the shots in this house, and it's not my turn to ride a little girl on my head, don't worry! You are still in charge of the big and small affairs in this house. ”
Yun'er heard that her heart was as sweet as honey and said, "Husband, ......"
After receiving the order, Mu Sheng came to Wu Xie Courtyard as usual and wanted to ask what the origin of this Anyang Tian clan was.
At this time, Wu Xie was basking in the sun in the courtyard, and when he saw him coming, he said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty's will must be for the marriage of the king." ”
Mu Sheng said, "Yes, sir, I have a question, what is the origin of this Anyang Tian clan?" ”
Wu Xie heard this and said, "It turned out to be the Anyang Tian clan? Very good! Tian is indeed worthy of the identity of the son, this Anyang Tian clan is the Xue royal family, Xue was destroyed by Chen, Tian fled to Lu for refuge, changed Xue to Tian, Tian has served as a high-ranking official in Lu State, very trusted by King Lu, these hundreds of years have passed in Lu is tree is deep, although this Tian family is indeed a high name, but as a noble of the Seven Kingdoms, he does not have much influence in the court, and the children of the Tian family also have officials in my court, but most of them are in other places......"
Mu Sheng smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Wu, it seems that Your Majesty is also afraid that you will raise me too high and really threaten the status of the crown prince, so I chose the Tian family to marry me." ”
Wu Xie bowed his head slightly and said, "Well, what Childe said is good." ”
Mu Sheng went out of the courtyard and prepared to instruct the whole house to prepare the fourth link of the six wedding ceremonies, which was to send the dowry to the Tian family, the first three ceremonies, what to ask the name, what to fit the eight characters! It has long been done by the imperial court.
Mu Sheng asked the officials who stayed behind, the emperor had already sent someone to send it to the Tian family, he didn't have to worry about it at all, he just washed and washed, dressed neatly, and prepared for the last ceremony in two months, and greeted in person, that is, he went to the Tian family to greet his relatives in person, and then went to the palace to thank His Majesty for his grace.
Two months later, on an auspicious day, the wedding day came on time, Yun'er and Xixue served Mu Sheng together and put on their wedding clothes.
He looked at the two beauties in front of him and sighed in his heart! What kind of marriage do you get married with this two beautiful servants? Before leaving, Mu Sheng's pig mouth stretched forward and kissed Yun'er and Xixue one by one before laughing, and when he went out, only Ermei's face was red in the house, and he was stunned in place and at a loss.
Out of the gate, Mu Sheng stepped on the high-headed horse and went to Tian's house to pick up his relatives.
Mu Sheng's welcoming team had just arrived at Tian's house, and from a distance, he saw that Tian's houses were contiguous and full of mansions, Mu Sheng sighed in his heart, it was worthy of being a century-old family, and this mansion was bigger than Changping Jun's mansion.
After the Great Jin Dynasty dominated the world, these destroyed families had to be appeased, although these people lost their previous political status, the scenery is no longer good, but they have to be compensated accordingly, at least they are rich and noble, these people in this era properly belong to the intellectual elite, with a wide range of contacts and a deep family background.
At this time, hundreds of people from the Tian clan stood in front of the door with red faces to greet this Changping Jun.
Mu Sheng got out of the car, took one step and made two steps, stepped forward, and bowed deeply to an old man with white hair in the middle, "Meet the old patriarch, how are you doing?" ”
The old man laughed and said, "Good! Okay, thank you Changpingjun for your concern, our Tian family can marry Changpingjun I don't know which life is a blessing. ”
This old man is Tian Ao, the head of the Tian family, who has seen him at the Spring Festival court, although he has no official position, but every year the imperial court holds various ceremonies and ceremonies to participate in the participation of these people after the seven kingdoms.
Mu Sheng just didn't expect to marry them, in this era, marriage is not only blood inheritance, it is also a property inheritance system, and it is also a political alliance.
Tian Ao pointed to the Tian clan and introduced them to Changpingjun one by one, and a middle-aged man from the Tian family caught his attention, this person is Tian Jian, the eldest son of the old ancestor, who is the supervisor of Gaoyang County, and is also a local middle-level cadre of the imperial court, and his father-in-law, who married Changpingjun as his wife is his daughter Tian Hui, and today his daughter married Tian Jian specially rushed back from Gaoyang County to attend the ceremony.
Mu Sheng looked at his father-in-law and his old family, and said secretly in his heart, it seems that his daughter's appearance will not be too bad......
After a little peace of mind, Mu Sheng stepped forward to greet Tian Jian, Tian Jian was also happy when he saw this situation, and said in his heart, marrying the emperor's favored prince is also very good for his future political future, and it is not yet known whether he will be promoted to a higher level.
Surrounded by everyone's laughter, Chang Pingjun entered Tianfu to pick up his relatives.
All morning, Mu Sheng finally received the bride under the repeated tossing and turning of various complicated marriage etiquette methods, and he was able to leave Tianfu, and the lineup of the welcoming team was also a mighty long line, and the passers-by in the capital stopped to watch......
