"I really don't want to have a face!"

Mrs. Wang, who has a big mouth, is furious again, because the third invitation she received today reads, "The child is recovering from a serious illness, and a banquet is being held in the mansion to celebrate."

"It's just a wind chill, and if the wind chill is good, you have to hold a banquet to celebrate?"

"There is another one, what wild Taoist priest said that there is a shortage in his life, and he wants to get the blessing of everyone, and he also has to hold a banquet?"

"It's shameless, it's crazy."

I don't know what day it started, but it became common to hold banquets in Kyoto, and it was done by every household, and the reasons were also strange.

The maid didn't dare to speak this time, because she was the first to do it.

In the past, those officials and relatives disliked the copper smell of businessmen, but now they only want these copper smells to themselves, no way, they don't want to be so ashamed, but everyone is doing it, and they can't just give gifts themselves, so they can only follow suit.

Hua Jingchang reported the matter to the emperor, who was furious.

"Ridiculous, simply ridiculous, what do you all want me to say about you?"

In the early days of this day, the emperor pointed to the noses of a group of civil servants and military generals and scolded, "In order to collect money, you can be regarded as racking your brains, with the concubine becoming a concubine, recovering from a serious illness, and giving birth to a horse, see what you have done!" ”

The courtiers were silent, and they didn't feel ashamed, and if they wanted to be embarrassed, everyone would lose them together, if it wasn't really impossible, who would want to do such a thing?

The emperor didn't want to think about it, just his family had eight gifts, who could give it.

The emperor was very angry, and immediately announced the first decree on the accompanying rites since the founding of the country, and from today onwards, the maximum number of accompanying salutes shall not exceed 100 taels.

Simple and rude, a group of civil and military ministers called a grateful tear, "The emperor is wise." ”

Finally, there is no need to compare, and finally there is no need to rack your brains for gifts, everyone is the same, how good.

The family foundation is thin and happy, and the family foundation is also happy, after all, no one's money is blown by the wind.

"Princess." Nian Xia came over happily, "Those who sent the post sent someone to say that it would not be done." ”

"I heard that the emperor meant, in the future, each family should not give more than one hundred taels of gifts."

Wen Mianmian put down the pen in her hand and said with a smile that she knew, don't look at her wealth, she doesn't want to follow so many courtesies, endlessly.

The emperor personally stared at it, the ancient chess force of the Ministry of Rites personally operated, and the ladies of the high gate in the city participated together, and the scene was very lively.

After all, it is quite rare for the husband's family to give a ceremony.

Early in the morning, there were endless carriages and horses at the gate of the palace, and Mama Fang took people to greet her at the door, and Mrs. Wen, who came out of the confinement, was greeting the guests.

"Mrs. Wen, you have been sitting well this month, and your complexion is really good."

"Mrs. Wen, why didn't you see your little girl today, I heard that the rain and snow are very cute, isn't it hidden?"

"Princess Yunyang, your appearance is really good, but please ask the imperial doctor to see if it is a son or a girl, if it is a son, it will be a handsome little general in the future."

The ladies all greeted each other with smiles, and then they all talked about today's protagonist Wen Mianmian, mainly saying that she was blessed.

Soon Xia Shengge and several people also arrived one after another, and they sat in a row with big bellies in their arms, so that the surrounding ladies didn't know how to greet each other.

At this moment, Wen Mianmian had already washed up, and was sitting bored in a dress that was said to be called Caiyi, as today's praiser, Xing Yue was looking at the clothes and jewelry to be worn for a while, and Nian Xia was holding a booklet and talking about the rules to pay attention to for a while.

"Why is it so troublesome?"

Listening to a lot of Rory's ramblings, Wen Mianmian only felt a headache, "I even have to come in and change my clothes three times, why don't I just change my clothes and go out." ”

Xingyue hurriedly shook her head, "Then what's the matter, this is the rule, don't worry, it'll be over soon, and you don't need to speak." ”

"It's nice to think that you can wear those beautiful pieces of jewelry after today."

Wen Mianmian propped her head, and then smiled with crooked eyebrows, "I don't need to wait until tomorrow, I can wear it today." ”

Saying that, he looked at Xingyue with a smile, "By the way, I heard that the Lin family's courtyard in Kyoto has been repaired, and recently they have taken advantage of the good items appraisal to buy things everywhere, saying that it is a dowry to prepare, how about it, are you very happy to hear this news?" ”

Xing Yue was not shy at all, and said happily: "I know everything, after I get married, the sixth brother will definitely not come back at that time, let's play together, go shopping, go horseback riding." ”

"You don't know, you've been busy since you got married, I haven't had a chance to come to play with you, next year we will both be married women, and I don't live in the palace, I'm the biggest in the family, and I'll do whatever I want?"

Seeing her smug face, Wen Mianmian looked at her with mixed feelings, "Why do you say that we are women, when I hear it, I think I am thirty years old, please say that we are still beautiful young ladies, is it okay?" ”

Xingyue looked up and laughed, "Yes, we are beautiful young ladies." ”

The two were laughing, and the sound of heavy ritual music sounded outside the door, and Nian Xia hurriedly put down the booklet, "Princess, the ceremony is about to begin." ”

The flower hall of the palace has become a sea of flowers today, the flowers are all over the ground, the fragrance of flowers is bursting, even the musicians are sitting among the flowers to have fun, inspired by Wen Mianmian, the flower garden on the Wenhou Mansion has now been able to make a lot of bouquets of different shapes, this flower hall is decorated with flowers, even the door is an arch full of flowers, all of which are the masterpieces of the flower garden of the Wenhou Mansion.

Flowers were tied to each chair, and the ladies and girls were amazed when they arrived, "It's so beautiful, and it's easy to look at these flowers." ”

"Oh, there's a seat for everyone, it's really sweet."

The ladies looked around and then sat down, "Don't say, it's really a special taste to sit among the flowers." ”

The sky is blue, the cool breeze is blowing, the flowers are everywhere, the music is melodious, it is really refreshing, Wen Mianmian according to the ear guidance of the Ministry of Rites officials, step by step to complete the different rules, after the addition of addition, two additions, three additions, she finally changed into a red embroidered peacock wings dress, the bun was also combed again, full of pearls and greens.

"The Holy Decree Arrives~"

Hearing this singing, the people present were not surprised, at this time the palace should have a reward, Wen Mianmian took the lead and knelt in front, just listen to the holy decree is still four li, said the sky is falling, and then sang to the point, "Special reward five phoenix out of the cloud crown a top, a pair of red gold flower collars, inlaid with precious stones, a pair of jade inlaid stone faces, ten brocade horses......"

The smile on the corner of Wen Mianmian's mouth was about to be irrepressible, but the emperor was still very generous, and he didn't let her open her mouth for a while.

Waiting for the holy decree to be sung, he hurriedly kowtowed, "Thank you, father." ”

This knock is called a sincere one.
