The day of Ling Rongjin's marriage has come, and the relatives and friends who accepted his invitation came to the Ling Mansion one after another before lunch, and the Ling Mansion was a jubilant and festive scene. It was not until the noon wedding banquet that Ling Rongjin took the wedding team to Ji Mansion to welcome his relatives, because the distance between Ling Mansion and Ji Mansion was not too far.

Tao Ziyun has already participated in several weddings and is accustomed to such scenes. He came early today, calmly observing all over the Ling Mansion, and when others were not paying attention, he looked at the list of relatives and friends in the Ji Mansion that Ling Rongjin gave him from time to time, and then went to look for the people mentioned on the list, many of the people on it were known to him.

Because according to customs, only some of the relatives and friends of Jifu came directly to Lingfu as guests, and there would be many people in Jifu to eat the noon thanksgiving wine, and after the luncheon, the people who received Ling Rongjin's invitation would follow the Lingfu greeting team and go to Lingfu to eat the welcome wine. Because Tao Ziyun didn't know many people from Jifu, he couldn't count who came and who didn't.

When the wedding banquet was about to begin, Tao Ziyun no longer walked around, but greeted his and Ling Rongjin's friends in turn, and sat at the same table with his most familiar colleagues.

"Are the two General He not coming today?" Tao Ziyun naturally asked a question to the people at the same table, and Tao Ziyun knew that Ling Rongjin had sent them an invitation.

"It's possible! Didn't the emperor raise the issue of the border pass to the ministers in the early days of the past few days? The two great generals were promoted to be the generals to reinforce the border pass, and they had to prepare for the expedition, and the troops transporting grain and grass had already set off. The first to answer Tao Ziyun's question was Liang Zhangju.

gave Tao Ziyun a positive response, as well as Zhu Shiyan, who Tao Ziyun knew well: "This time the border pass is more dangerous than before, and I have to let the two court generals go on the expedition." ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm here to toast you. Ling Rongjin was wearing a new uniform. Holding a wine glass, a servant holding a wine jug walked over with a spring breeze on his face.

The guests at this table stood up and clinked glasses with Ling Rongjin to drink, and Tao Ziyun also asked him, "Prince Jin didn't come here either?"

"Yes, he was also among my invitations, but someone from his house brought a gift, but he was told that Prince Jin could not be there in person. Ling Rongjin adjusted his feelings and continued to explain to his colleagues who were a little embarrassed: "Originally, because Prince Jin and I went on an envoy to the Crow Country, we went through a long journey back and forth on the sea. There is no merit and hard work, the emperor is ready to arrange a real job for him to do, Prince Jin said, he is afraid that he will not do well, worried that he will be impeached by Lord Tao, and in the end he will not get benefits, and he will also endure prison. Now that the border is tight, Prince Jin is a military general, and he also wants to go out with the two generals. But the emperor didn't agree, he was still walking around the palace, trying to convince the emperor not to come to my wedding. ”

Tao Ziyun smiled bitterly: "This Prince Jin." Thinking of exercising on the battlefield, he even used me as an excuse. ”

"Hehe, don't worry about that, everyone is happy!" Ling Rongjin made the table full of guests who were officials of the same dynasty happy. Then I went to the other table to toast.

After lunch, Ling Rongjin took the blowing and blowing greeting team to Ji's Mansion and slowly picked up Miss Ji. According to customs, after visiting the church, he entered the cave room with Miss Ji.

After the dinner began, Ling Rongjin came out again and politely toasted the guests in turn.

When Ling Rongjin walked to Tao Ziyun's side, he told Tao Ziyun and said, "Lord Tao, Prince Jin has received the emperor's permission, and he can reinforce the border with the two generals He." ”

Tao Ziyun looked around, and the hall full of banquets still didn't see Prince Jin: "He sent someone over again?

Ling Rongjin replied as calmly as possible: "Yes, it may be because Prince Jin has a holiday with you and doesn't want to meet you here, so he wrote me a letter and sent another person to deliver the letter to me. The man who had come to deliver the letter stayed here for dinner, and when I came out of the cave room, he told me the situation, and gave me the letter from Prince Jin. ”

"It's really a solemn matter!" Liang Zhangju interjected to Ling Rongjin with emotion, "What else did you say in that letter?"

"Prince Jin wants me to go with him. He said that when he went to the battlefield, he also needed a civilian to give advice to the generals. What Ling Rongjin said made these colleagues stunned.

Zhu Shiyan asked Ling Rongjin with concern: "Then what are you going to do? ”

Ling Rongjin pondered and replied: "Wait a minute, I will write him a reply, just say that the newlywed wife can't do without me, let them set off first, although I don't know about marching and fighting, I may not be able to give them advice, after a while, if they feel that it is still necessary, I will go to the border pass." ”

Tao Ziyun patted Ling Rongjin on the shoulder and comforted him, "You can decide like this." Prince Jin really can't understand your difficulties, if he doesn't accept your request, he can let these colleagues plead for you in front of the emperor. ”

Tao Ziyun's mention caused a chorus of echoes among his colleagues, who all agreed to intercede for Ling Rongjin, at least let Ling Rongjin go to the border pass after a while, if their reinforcements won the battle early, they could let Ling Rongjin not go to the border pass.

Ling Rongjin thanked these colleagues gratefully, and went to the other tables to toast.

On the morning of the second day of Ling Rongjin's wedding, after the morning dynasty, the two generals of the He brothers, together with Prince Jin, took 30,000 Eight Banner Army and urgently went to the border pass to reinforce them. According to Ling Rongjin, Prince Jin read his reply and sent someone to reply to him in time that night, agreeing to his request, if their reinforced team could not be quickly resolved, Ling Rongjin would go to the border pass, in order to turn the tide of the war.

The ministers of civil and military affairs who retreated from the court and left the palace all went to the street to send those teams off.

General He Lushi said to Tao Ziyun, who was standing on the side of the street to see him off: "Actually, we two brothers expect Master Tao to give us advice, just like you sent an envoy to Liyuanguo to help Dai Zhi and them bravely retreat from the stun beast, and also help us win a big battle." It's a pity that you and Prince Jin are not in harmony, and it is not suitable for you to go on the expedition together, so you have to let Lord Ling take over. ”

Ling Rongjin, who was standing beside Tao Ziyun, smiled: "General He, don't be afraid, if I go to the border pass in the future, it's useless, let Master Tao recommend us a capable person with a strategy to help us at the border pass!" (To be continued......)
