The poem says:

Whose daughter has a new makeup,

Gently shake the small fan to cool the moon.

Looking for a son-in-law in front of the boudoir building,

Pull out the king bed into the cave room.

It is said that Lu Yirou returned to Lu Mansion and saw singing and dancing in the courtyard, wine and meat, it was Lu Yihao who was banqueting Nangong Jun, who had just been promoted to the Ministry of War, and the ministers of the court and the central government raised their glasses to congratulate. She frowned lightly and walked into the atrium, Lu Yihao saw her and beckoned her to come and take a seat, pointed to Nangong Jun and said, "This is Nangong Jun, the secretary of the Ministry of War, come and see you." Nangong Junzheng, who was full of red light, was hooking shoulders with Tong Guan, the minister of the DPRK and China, drinking and laughing, and suddenly saw a beautiful woman in the prime of her life, with her hair combed, her nose and phoenix eyes, her eyes like stars and moons, and her body was tightly wrapped in a goose-yellow curved deep coat, and her waist was slightly tight and exquisite, and she felt more heroic. Nangong Jun was suddenly shocked, and just as he was about to speak, he saw Lu Yirou's eyes swept coldly into the garden, as if a chill had penetrated into his heart, and Nangong Jun became timid for no reason. hugged his fists and smiled: "I never thought that Lu Xianggong's niece would be so standard." Tong Guan squinted and said, "I don't know what the scenery is like after changing my outfit?" Hearing the hint, Lu Yihao snorted, turned around and ordered the maid to wait for Lu Yirou to change women's clothes, and to change into the clothes that were just ordered the day before yesterday. Lu Yirou was unwilling, but she was helpless, so she had to agree, and after arriving at the wing, the maid took off her belly wrap and hid it according to the plan, saying that this was Lu Xianggong's order, only allowed to wear the innermost small bandeau and not to wear the belly wrap, Lu Yirou couldn't find it, she was very helpless, although she tried her best to cover it, but it could only cover up a roughly. Then put on a long tunic with a straight collar and a placket, the placket of the tunic is not tightly closed, but open, and at most it is loosely tied with a belt at the belly. In this way, the part outside the small bandeau is revealed from the open placket, and this white Luo dress really matches her very well, not only elegant and dignified, but also has thousands of gestures, looking down, I can't help but be ashamed, this dress, no matter what, I can't go out. Lu Yihao waited for a long time and didn't see anyone, and ordered someone to urge, but he still didn't come out, and he was a little annoyed, so he personally went to the door of the wing room and knocked on the door. Lu Yirou saw that she couldn't hide, so she went out with a red face, and Nangong Jun was stunned, as if she had lost seven souls and six spirits. There is a poem as proof:

Β·Β·Β· Luo Shang is light and thin, and most of the chest is exposed.

Β·Β·Β· Half-concealed and half-concealed are visible, but Nangong Xin'er is stolen.

Β·Β·Β· Looking horizontally, the side of the ridge is a peak, and the jade legs are slender and winding.

Β·Β·Β· Nana is intoxicating, and the fragrance of the country begins to cause trouble.

Lu Yirou walked in front of Nangong Jun, her legs bent slightly, leaned slightly, and whispered: "Shangshu Wanfu." It's just that there was silence in front of her, she looked up suspiciously, and saw Nangong Jun maintaining a sluggish posture, scanning back and forth on her body without blinking. Shocked to think of her outfit at this time, Lu Yirou's pretty face rose a blush, forced her composure, raised her voice and said, "Shangshu Wanfu." Nangong Jun came back to his senses and arched his hand: "Ah, there is no need to be polite." Then he looked at Lu Yihao and said: "Miss Lu is really stunning, I don't know how young she is, is she allowed to marry someone?" Lu Yihao replied: "I am fifteen years old, and there is no family yet, if Nangong Shangshu is interested, I will marry Yirou to you as a wife and concubine, what do you think?" Nangong Jun's eyes lit up and said: "That's what I mean! Lu Yirou reversed the shy and shy little daughter's demeanor just now, tilted her head, and said arrogantly: "Don't marry!" After that, the willow waist swayed lightly, and regardless of Lu Yihao's drinking, she went straight into the wing room to rest.

Lu Yihao's face was angry, but most of the ministers were angry because of the inconvenience of their faces, and repeatedly assured Nangong Jun that this marriage was decided first. Tomorrow, Nangong Jun really sent a dowry gift, carrying dozens of boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin, and planned the wedding date as soon as he entered the house. Lu Yirou heard it in the back room and rushed in, pointed at Nangong Jun and said: "There is only one person in this life, the slave family only recognizes one person, don't you think about it!" Lu Yihao said angrily: "Presumptuous!" Then he ordered the guards to be strictly guarded, and Lu Yirou was forbidden to step out of the Lu Mansion for half a step. Before leaving, he suddenly remembered what Lu Yirou said just now, Nangong Jun turned to Lu Yihao and said: "I heard that I got quite close to Na Jiankang He Fuyi some time ago, you need to be careful in this matter, don't want the bamboo basket to fetch water, when the time comes, you will not be able to explain, I'm afraid I will not be able to explain." I have a plan, now that Dajin is going south, I have played the emperor by Jiankang Mansion Yi He to serve as a general to go to the conquest, and bury a secret passage on the road to keep him going and not returning. As long as He Lai died, Lu Yirou stopped thinking. Lu Yihao nodded again and again, indicating that he would act according to the plan, and at the same time repeatedly promised that this marriage was a certainty and would never be changed, so he sent Nangong Jun away. Why do you say why Lu Yihao is so flattering to Nangong Jun? Although Lu Yihao is now the prime minister, he has lost his power, and Nangong Jun has a strong momentum with his three-inch incorruptible tongue.

Lu Yirou couldn't get out, she was anxious, but fortunately, there was a maid Xiaohong beside her, and she and Xiaohong had a master-servant relationship, and they were as close as sisters. Xiaohong also knew where she was in her heart, and suggested why not write a letter. So, Lu Yirou took up the pen and dipped it in ink:

He Lang:

Good concubine, don't read it.

In all dynasties, the scholars were envious of the officials, and He Lang levied Dajin to Mingzhi, and his courage could not be respectful! However, now Nangong Jun proposed his relatives, Uncle Lu agreed, and Yu swore to die. If He Lang is a rock, the concubine's body will also be turned into a reed. The reed is tough as silk, and the rock has no transfer. After a long absence, I miss it very much, and I swear here: the green mountains are rotten and resting, and the water scales are floating. Wait until the Yellow River withers. The valley is in a different room, and the death is in the same hole. He Lang is asking for Dajin this time, and the way is dangerous, and he is afraid that there will be fierce beasts in captivity in Nangong, so he must be extremely careful. Pan Lang returns.

Xiaohong didn't dare to be careless, hid it in her arms, and went straight to the delivery shop under the pretext of going out to buy rouge gouache. This delivery shop is a place specifically responsible for the delivery of documents, similar to a modern post office, between 18 and 25 miles set up one, there are foot delivery, horse delivery, urgent foot delivery and gold plate urgent foot delivery. Xiaohong threw a lot of money, and only said that 100,000 urgent letters to the health mansion should not be mistaken, if there is a reply, it must not be sent to the house, and I will come to pick it up at three o'clock in the afternoon the day after tomorrow.

This gold brand rush foot delivery can not stop in the middle of the way, when the bell is about to be handed to the shop, the people in the shop hear the bell waiting at the shop, like running a relay race, ringing the bell all the way, passing like a flying lightning, pedestrians look at the road to avoid it, day and night, more than 500 miles a day, the second day before dawn arrived at the house of Helai.

He Lai has received the emperor's holy decree, is ready to go, see the urgent letter can not help but be puzzled, open the letter and look at it, surprised, this is full of love! But on the one hand, there is a lover, on the other side is a holy decree, if it is really a levy for money, I am afraid that I will lose my beloved since then. If it is a dowry, it has already been taken first, but I am afraid that it will be too late. When he hesitated, Zhang Qin suddenly said: "Son, you go by yourself, don't worry, you have your own ideas for your mother." Zhang Qin said: A few days ago, Concubine Xiao Guifei called me into the palace to make a dress, and now the clothes are ready, and when I enter the palace tomorrow, I will take the opportunity to meet the emperor. As long as he sees the emperor, there is a way for him to open Chrysostom. No matter how tough Lu Yihao is, dare to resist the decree?" He Lai said: "What if you can't see the emperor?" Zhang Qin said: "If the emperor hears that the real gold, silver, cloth and silk offered to Dajin this year are contracted by my Zhang's tailor shop, I don't know if the emperor is willing to see me?" He Lai was surprised: "That's a very large amount." Zhang Qin smiled: "So what?

So, the family was divided into three ways. How to lead the army to levy the big gold. He is afraid that the silk and satin real money loaded with dozens of carriages will go to the Lu Mansion for a dowry, if it is the best, even if it does not work, this matter will be delayed. Zhang Qin took the carefully sewn clothes into the palace to meet Concubine Xiao. That Xiao Guifei saw the exaggerated skill of the piano, Zhang Qin took the opportunity to say that she wanted to see the emperor, Xiao Guifei looked embarrassed, she didn't help, but the emperor rarely came to her once. Seeing this, Zhang Qin wrote a letter to the effect that thanks to the emperor's grace, Zhang's tailor shop had a prosperous business and a wide range of wealth, and he was willing to dedicate 500,000 taels of property and 500,000 horses of silk to the emperor. That's a lot of money. Last year, the Great Song Dynasty offered 250,000 taels of real gold and silver and 250,000 horses of silk. Zhang Qin's number is enough to make Zhao Gou, the emperor who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and indulge in lust, enjoy happiness for two years. Concubine Xiao was taken aback, knowing that this was a shocking event, so she decided to risk death to meet the emperor.

The words are divided into two ends.

After a few days, He was afraid and finally arrived at Lin'anlu Mansion. I saw that the Lu Mansion was heavily guarded, and all the idlers refused to enter, and the maids and servants also had to be searched and checked. I was thinking about how to get in, when I suddenly saw someone open the door, hung up a red lantern, and posted a big red happy letter.

He was secretly taken aback, and said in his heart: Didn't Lu Yirou change his hexagram and agree? Pretending to pass by, he stopped and hugged his fists to congratulate, who knew that Jia Ding sighed and said: "Somehow, Miss Lu swore to die, crying and making trouble, suddenly became seriously ill, and she couldn't afford to be sick." Seeing that the wedding date is approaching, no, the husband asked me to hang the lantern and Chong Chongxi. He was afraid to ask, "Why don't you ask someone to take a look?" He was afraid and asked: "Then can this marriage still be done?" Jia Ding said: "Nangong Shangshu said that life also requires people, and death also needs people." Miss Lu was about to die of hunger strike when she heard this, and her husband was helpless, so she came up with a method of throwing hydrangea to recruit relatives. Any unmarried man can participate. If I hadn't gotten married last year, I'd have wanted to be a part of it. In case you receive a hydrangea, not only will you be able to hold the beauty, but you won't have to worry about it in the next life. Listening to the broken thoughts of the family, He was afraid of frowning, it seems that Nangong Jun will not give up if he can't get a beauty, and besides, now Nangong Jun is the secretary of the military department, which is much more than He Lai's official position, it seems that you can't act rashly, I'm afraid that this dowry will have to be ruined.

If you can't make a plan, you will have another plan. He was afraid to whisper to the matchmaker, the matchmaker acted according to the plan, and sent dozens of carriages of real money, silver, silk and satin into the Lu Mansion, not for anything else, just to be fair, his son had an illness on the way here, and he would inevitably come when the illness improved. Lu Yihao was taken aback, he couldn't think of anyone who had such wealth, but as the saying goes, corrupt officials must love money, and when he saw the gold and silver treasures of the whole vehicle, it was difficult for Lu Yihao to agree or not. So he told Nangong Jun that Lu Yirou was bedridden and needed to recuperate for two months. Nangong Jun glared and said: "How can the set wedding date be extended? You can rest assured, I have already done a good job of throwing hydrangea to kiss you." Lu Yihao said: "Even if Lu Yirou marries you, but she is seriously ill, I am afraid that she will not be able to have a round house, wouldn't it be a pity? It is better to wait for her to recover, and then let you slaughter the fish and meat, wouldn't you be happy?" This sentence poked at his weakness, Nangong Jun was silent, thought for a long time, and then said: "If you can't do the joy of rain, it's really a big regret in life!

He was afraid to look up to the sky and sighed when he learned about it, in order to prevent accidents, he sent people from the two factions to secretly monitor every move of the Lu Mansion, and at the same time prayed that Zhang Qin would make good progress and come as soon as possible. After waiting for a month, not only did he hear from his son, but even Zhang Qin seemed to have disappeared. His wife and son were gone, He was so frightened that he hurriedly asked someone to inquire, and the news he got was: He died on the battlefield, Zhang Qin was missing. He was afraid to know that his son knew martial arts and had a clever mind, so how could he easily die on the battlefield, so he asked: "Even if you die in battle, can you have a relic?" The person shook his head. He was afraid to ask again: "What does Zhang Qin mean that he is missing?" The visitor replied: "There is no news after leaving the palace gate." He was silent, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "Where did you get this news?" The person replied: "It's all said by the housekeeper in Nangong Jun's mansion." When he heard this, he had a score in his heart. In this way, Zhang Qin should have received the emperor's marriage decree, and after leaving the palace, someone reported to Nangong Jun, and he was taken down by him halfway with the holy decree. As for where it came from, most of them were injured, and it is not certain in which family's house to recuperate from their injuries. In this way, it is necessary to make some money to delay the matter of throwing hydrangea to recruit relatives for three or five months.

was about to set off for the event, when he suddenly heard a commotion on the street, opened the window and looked, only to see the front courtyard of Lu Mansion and the downstairs of Lu Yirou's boudoir, which were crowded with people in the dark. For example, everyone knows that Lu Yirou is smart and smart, and has both ability and political integrity, and more importantly, this woman is as beautiful as a flower, and the husband of a woman beats his chest with regret when he hears it, and even women and children want to take this opportunity to see her demeanor. There are poems on the rivers and lakes that say this:

Β·Β·Β· It is soft and beautiful, and the delicate body is in sight.

Β·Β·Β· The slender waist is as soft as water, and I still pity the jade body.

Β·Β·Β· Marry her as a wife and concubine, and be a happy fairy.

The sound of suona fluttered in every corner of the Lu Mansion, and the servants and maidservants were busy preparing inside and outside the house. Outside the Lu Mansion, the people are boiling, the noise is abnormal, the traffic of the whole street is completely blocked, and with the continuous influx of people, the carriages, horses and mules have been unable to move the pace of progress, the coachman simply abandoned the horse after hearing about it, and the porters of the wharf also stopped their work and ran to the Lu Mansion, even the beggars in shabby clothes have forgotten their occupations, and there are many people, maybe this great good thing will fall on their heads!

In the attic, Lu Yirou looked into the distance, and everywhere she looked was human heads, densely packed, including women and children, children, and white-haired old men. I can't see their bodies, all the faces are everywhere, a little farther away, I can't even see the human faces, I can only see a layer of black scalp, and in the distance, I can't even see the scalp clearly, I can only vaguely see a black dot standing there.

Lu Yirou frowned, peeked in the room at a loss, and couldn't help asking: "Xiaohong, can you see him?" The maid Xiaohong frowned, shook her head while looking around, but comforted in her mouth: Miss don't worry, the slave maid sees that He Fuyi is sincere, he is not a hypocritical villain, he will definitely come, maybe he is already downstairs, but there are too many people, maybe he missed it. As he spoke, he kept looking around. Lu Yirou bit her lip lightly, waited for a long time, looked at the large black crowd downstairs, and asked, "Xiaohong, have you ever seen it?" Xiaohong shook her head while looking for it: "Back to Miss, I can't find it...... Unrecognizable...... Maybe he will show up after the hydrangea is thrown away......" Lu Yirou was a little anxious: "If the hydrangea is snatched by others, what should it be?" Xiaohong replied: "Then throw it again." ”

"Nonsense!" Lu Yihao walked in with a gloomy face and reprimanded, "It's only once in a lifetime, how can you throw hydrangea at a child's play! Whoever catches the hydrangea, you will marry whoever you want, and you can't regret it!" Lu Yirou secretly pulled Xiaohong's shirt, Xiaohong has followed her for many years, and there are a lot of people, in case you can't catch it, or you come late and delay the hour, and Miss can't regret it, I'm afraid it's really hard to do, so she said: "Xianggong, Miss doesn't want to throw hydrangeas." ”

"The arrow is on the string, I have to send it! Everything depends on the will of heaven, and I can't blame anyone!" Lu Yihao said these words in an unquestionable tone, and Lu Yirou's heart instantly sank into the abyss. Looking at the large area of black pressure downstairs, Lu Yihao frowned, and said in his heart: What if there is a half-point difference and others rob it? Thinking like this, he panicked for a while, and paced back with his hands behind his back to check.

Seeing that Lu Yihao was gone, Xiaohong comforted: "Miss, do you have a sentence that I don't know if to say or not?" Lu Yirou was anxious, and said without looking back: "You can tell me to hear it." Xiaohong said: "Miss is shy of flowers, why can't you marry a princely general, why bother staring at that little He Fuyi?" Lu Yirou shook her head and said: "I don't know why, when I see him, I feel very wonderful, as if I am familiar, and my heart is very steady." Xiaohong smiled and said, "Isn't Miss Mo meeting him in a dream since she was a child?" Seeing a real person, this is the feeling of being familiar at first sight?" Lu Yirou blushed and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense." But I agree with her point of view very much.

As he was talking, he suddenly heard Lu Yihao's voice coming: "Hurry up and prepare, it's time to play." "Wait a little longer......" Lu Yirou's anxious palms began to sweat. "After the hour, I'm afraid it will be unlucky. After a pause, Lu Yihao said again, "Everything depends on the will of heaven!"

Lu Yirou anxiously looked out the window secretly, there were more and more people, shouting, frolicking, cheering, a little closer, you can also identify the elderly, women and children, children, farther away, only from the hair ornament can be seen whether it is a man or a woman, it is impossible to identify the appearance at all, and farther away, the vision begins to become blurred, and men or women can't see clearly. Unable to see her sweetheart, she stomped her feet angrily, He Lang, where are you? If you come, you would like to give a message!

At this time, I saw Lu Yihao shaking his fan and slowly pacing to the attic. Seeing Lu Xianggong, the men in the audience suddenly cheered. When the hour came, the bustling crowd downstairs was already restless, and some young and vigorous people had even begun to curse and urge.

To put it in my heart, throwing hydrangea to recruit a son-in-law is a last resort. Lu Yihao is the prime minister, a high and powerful position, his only son died, and his beloved daughter Lu Xinyao died of a serious illness at the end of last year, and now there is turmoil in the officialdom, I am afraid that the position will not be guaranteed, Nangong Jun is a celebrity around the emperor, and I am afraid that only Lu Yirou can help himself.

Lu Yirou walked to the attic sullenly, holding the red hydrangea in her hand with Xiaohong's support, and hesitantly walked to the east, and a maid pointed her finger and signaled that her son looked good. Lu Yirou shook her head slightly and slowly walked to the west of the attic. The maid had been observing the crowd for a long time, and she also pointed with her finger. Lu Yirou still shook her head, the person she missed had not appeared so far, and a deep sense of loss came to her heart. She looked at Lu Yihao in a panic, only to see that Lu Yihao's face was solemn and he didn't say a word. She searched quickly in the vast sea of people again, but after all, she found nothing, and then slowly stood up in despair, her hands trembled slightly, and the light hydrangea was like an iron block in her hand, extremely heavy, maybe, there was really no fate, right?

Hearing Lu Yihao's low urging again, Lu Yirou closed her eyes, those short-lived beautiful bits and pieces were shattered in front of her eyes, and her beautiful eyes couldn't help but shed two lines of tears, biting her lips tightly, and holding the hydrangea high.

"Throw the hydrangea! Throw the hydrangea!" The crowd suddenly exploded, and the sound of coaxing and cheering was endless.

Lu Yirou closed her eyes tightly, her heart was crossed, and she threw it out!

The crowd suddenly became noisy, you pushed me, but no one picked it up. Xiaohong looked at it and saw that although the man on the third floor and the outer three layers were wearing market cloth clothes, he was wearing official shoes under his feet. The hydrangea rolled down at the feet of only one man, and he could have picked it up by bending down, but he seemed to have palpitations, gritted his teeth and twisted his face to the side and pretended not to see it. At this moment, a man came out of the crowd, laughed, and took the hydrangea into his arms. This person is none other than Nangong Jun.

Xiaohong shouted softly: "Miss, it's actually Nangong Jun." Lu Yirou said expressionlessly: "It's not unexpected, it's true." The sound of suona sounded happily again, and the servant invited Nangong Jun to the attic and changed into a groom's outfit.

Nangong Jun changed into the groom's outfit, walked slowly to the attic, and politely bowed: "The son-in-law meets his father-in-law." Lu Yihao shook his fan, his expression was a little solemn: "The fast son-in-law is now happy to ride the dragon, with heavy makeup and light flowers, and next year will celebrate Lin'er's victory, and the happy husband and wife will be happy." Nangong Jun said with a smile: "Thank you, father-in-law, my son-in-law will work hard to sow seeds." Father-in-law can sit back and relax. ”

This last sentence is clearly suggested. Lu Yihao naturally heard the voice, and his hanging heart finally fell, and he looked up to the sky and laughed. The housekeeper knew the master's thoughts, and he was quite satisfied with his fast son-in-law. So he announced in public: "Our ceremony begins, and the bride and groom are married." ”

"Worship heaven and earth!"

"Second worship high hall!"

"Husband and wife worship each other!"

"Thank you, relatives and friends!"

As the bride and groom happily walked towards the new house, the fiancΓ©s downstairs were envious, jealous and hateful. Other than that, they could only sigh one after another.

The furniture in the room has been renewed, a big character is pasted on the wall, there is a bookshelf on the left side, a small round table covered with red silk and two round stools have been added in front of the bed on the right, a dressing cabinet is placed at the end of the bed, and a pair of dragon and phoenix red candles are lit on the small round table, which illuminates the small room. On the edge of the bed, Lu Yirou was wearing a silk red bridal dress covered with a hijab, her breasts were slightly exposed, up and down, nervously and shyly waiting for her husband's arrival.

Looking at the newlywed lady in front of him, Nangong Junzai carefully looked at it from head to toe, it was simply a stunner in the world! He couldn't wait to pick up the jade Ruyi from the small round table and walked to Lu Yirou, gently picked up the red silk, and finally saw her pretty face.

"The lady is so beautiful!" Nangong Jun sighed from the bottom of his heart.

"You...... Don't ......" A trace of despair flashed in Lu Yirou's eyes.

Nangong Jun waited for more than a month, in order to spend candles in the cave room on this day, and now that he is finally married, he is short of the cave room. He smiled while wearing wide clothes: "You and I have visited the church, and from now on we will be my Nangong Jun's wife! As he spoke, he pounced like a wolf.

Lu Yirou had already hidden a dagger under the pillow, just waiting for him to come over and give him a knife, but she didn't know that the maid who was waiting with her was covered with his Nangong Jun's ears and eyes, and this dagger had been secretly taken away by the maid in advance.

Lu Yirou quickly groped under the pillow, but she didn't catch anything, and she was suddenly frightened. In this stunned, only to hear a cracking sound, the wedding dress was torn open, revealing a large piece of snow-white breasts, at this moment, Lu Yirou only felt that the sky on her head had fallen.

There is a saying: Whoever understands the taste of lovesickness, who looks forward to the return of his beloved, who holds rouge tears, who paints willow moon eyebrows, who will be resentful in the song, who thinks about the reincarnation of red sleeves, and who is lovesick and wrong, all become heartbroken people. Find out what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.
