Yu Xiurong hugged her big belly and staggered into the palace city. She had a bright phoenix hairpin on her head, a golden step with a tassel nearly half a foot long, and a bright phoenix hairpin inlaid on the ribbon combing her hair.
sapphire.
All this shines in the sun.
The light cyan underskirt is paired with a small outer shirt. A light cyan ribbon that matches the underskirt falls from the shoulder and wraps around the arm. Look.
It really does look a bit fairy-like.
What really makes all women take a look at Yu Xiurong is her towering belly and her naturally beautiful face without the application of rouge and gouache.
Looking at the way she went about not recognizing her relatives because of her pregnancy, even the most demanding woman would envy her from the bottom of her heart when she saw Yu Xiurong.
Mu.
It's obvious that this is a woman who has it all.
Of course, if they were to know that this woman's husband was the same age as her and was in a high position, they would go crazy with jealousy.
As for the appearance of his husband, no one cares about it and will not pay attention to it. People who can be officials in the Tang Dynasty must pay attention to their appearance.
He is too ugly to be embarrassed.
And the more wealthy women are, the less they value a man’s appearance, because women who value their husband’s appearance basically don’t
It will end well.
Princess Changle of the Tang Dynasty married Changsun Chong and died young. Princess Gaoyang was greedy for her appearance and was killed. As for being married to her uncle and cousin,
There are countless princesses who marry old men and foreigners.
Therefore, for them, it is good to marry a well-matched person of the same age, what else do they want?
The most outrageous thing is that this woman is obviously just the eldest wife of a sixth-grade official, but from the moment she entered the palace gate, Huangmen treated her with courtesy.
In addition, the director of the Palace Gate Bureau diligently sent out two eunuchs from the Huangmen Gate to follow Yu Xiurong, one of whom was holding a small Hu bed (mazar) with high legs.
He still arranged Yu Xiurong into the group of the county ladies regardless of the situation.
Among the ladies of the country, there are also some bright and charming ones, because many of the ladies of the country were granted the title of Li Zhifeng.
The situation is worse for county ladies. Most of their husbands are old men. As first wives, they are naturally not that young.
But those county wives who got married and filled out houses are not qualified to come to the place of such a great ceremony, because that honor has already followed the original wife.
Death, disappearance, death and disappearance together.
As for the fact that Wu Mei also filled the house, naturally no one wanted to mention it, no one even thought about it, because the rules themselves were set by the royal family.
Therefore, even if the outrageous young Yu Xiurong does nothing and just sits on the tall little bed, he has already reached the level of
To achieve the purpose of overwhelming the beauty.
The Yu family is also in this group. She has almost bitten her teeth with hatred. As the daughter of Yu Shinan, now that her husband is dead, she can enter the county.
Madam, this group is already her last glory.
And Yu Xiurong, an orphan girl whom she looked down upon at all in the past, is now very popular among this group, and there is also a bed for sleeping.
As she sat down, there was a small yellow door holding a large military kettle for her, and another using a cattail leaf fan to help her block the fierce sunlight.
Feng Chai and Jin Bu Yao, these are symbols of status, almost blinding Yu's eyes, and there is a looming one on the Hao wrist she occasionally raises.
The mutton-fat white jade bracelet is shining brightly in the sun.
The military kettle held in Xiaohuangmen's hand is clearly made by a Western craftsman. Not to mention its simple shape, it is just the liveliness of two horses guarding the teapot.
The vivid silver dancing horse and the rhinoceros horn on the lid of the pot, which is said to be able to ward off all kinds of poisons, made the knowledgeable woman marvel. This thing should be something only found in the army, and should be in the hands of the royal family of the Western Regions.
The only thing I have is probably worn by famous generals in hundreds of battles as a wine flask.
The thing that was there has now become a kettle that a woman usually uses.
Of course, what made Yu shi jealous the most was Yu Xiurong’s towering belly. Judging from how huge the belly was, Yu shi suspected that there were at least two cubs inside.
son.
None of the women here are easy to get along with. Soon, a middle-aged woman standing next to Mrs. Yu said to Mrs. Yu: "Sister, if you want to find someone?"
Please, please don’t do it today, otherwise my sister won’t say a word to you.”
Mrs. Yu was startled, and then looked at the red-draped high platform and the long red carpet in front of her. She knew that if trouble were caused here today, it might be very difficult for her to stay alive, and it might even harm her whole family.
It’s really ridiculous that the family members of a sixth-grade official are also showing up here.”
If Mrs. Yu hadn't told her, the middle-aged woman still wouldn't know the details of Yu Xiurong. When she heard what she said, she asked curiously: "Sixth-grade official?"
Mr. Yu sneered and said, "I am just a county magistrate."
The middle-aged woman asked doubtfully: "Can the county magistrate's family come here?"
Another woman who had long disliked Mrs. Yu's look of wanting to strangle Yu Xiurong said: "There are also two county magistrates in Chang'an. I guess this is not the wife of Chang'an County Magistrate Liu Rengui, but the Wannian County Magistrate."
Yunchu's wife.
Tsk tsk, the eighteen-year-old wife of the Zhengtang Magistrate of Wannian County, plus she is pregnant, is not too much to sit here.
I also heard that the magistrate of Wannian County can only sit at the fifth rank. It was because he was too young that he was reduced to the sixth rank. As long as a few years pass and he gets older, it will not be difficult to restore the old system of the fifth rank.
."
Speaking of who Yu Xiurong is, not many ladies know, but when it comes to the promise of a thousand pieces of gold in the city of Chang'an, the people can have good houses to live in without spending a penny, and Jinchangfang under his rule has become the most prosperous place in Chang'an today.
Everyone knows about the young county magistrate Yun Chu.
Women in big families, especially the wives of these officials, are actually a group of women who control the economic lifeline of the family.
As long as there are thousands of things that need to be done in Chang'an City at home, Chang'an County and Wannian County cannot be avoided at all.
Regardless of the man's high official position, when it comes to supporting the family, it is not something his husband can do with his modest salary. Whose family doesn't have dozens or hundreds of people waiting to eat? If you don't do some business, how can you take care of the family?
People's mouths are stuck and they don't want to eat?
So, seeing that the ceremony had not yet begun, a group of women gathered in front of Qian Xiurong to speak, which made Mrs. Yu almost break the handkerchief in her hand.
Yu Xiurong is also a national show, and she has a certain family tradition in dealing with this kind of scene. She stood up to let the elders sit on the bed, but they said she was heavy and pressed her down on the bed, making a loud noise.
Started the daily routine.
In a short period of time, Yu Xiurong received invitations to more than a dozen parties. This was considering that she was about to give birth, otherwise, there would be more.
When the drums started playing, all the women quickly returned to their seats and looked at the white-haired ceremony official on the high platform.
"E-Qing-" Even though the white-haired ceremony official looked very old, his voice was very loud, and even Yu Xiurong, who was a hundred steps away, could hear it clearly.
After the scene fell into silence, the white-haired ceremony officer first bowed to the sky three times and everyone followed. After the ceremony, the white-haired ceremony officer lit a thick stick of incense and inserted it into the bronze cauldron.
"E—Qing—"
The white-haired ceremony officer then led hundreds of officials and their families, bowed down to the earth three times, and inserted a thick stick of incense into the bronze cauldron.
This time, he issued an edict to hundreds of officials and their families, cleared his throat violently, and then spoke loudly to the officials standing with their hands crossed and the women squatting in salute.
"Under the family, marriage between men and women is the foundation of the world... The Wu family is a sect of Xun Yong, and the land is tasseled. It is good to go back to the past. It is selected to be in the back court. It has the reputation of Jiaowei and Deguang Lanye. I used to be in Chu Er,
He is kind and kind, and he is always followed by his followers, who never leave him day and night.
Inside the palace pot, I always bow to myself; among the concubines and concubines, there is no chance to see her. I recognize the holy love, and every time I admire her, I will confer a couple with the Wu family, and I will work with the emperor, so I can make her the queen."
Just as the emperor's decree was read out, the sound of drum music suddenly started, and the emperor in full military uniform and Wu Mei in red clothes appeared in front of the palace gate one after another.
Li Zhi walks like a tiger and walks like a dragon, Wu Mei follows suit, a giant bear walks slowly, every step makes his fat body tremble like waves...
In the cotton field, Yun Chu, dressed as a farmer, took the wok off the stove and poured the fried cucumbers and eggs into a plate.
Liu Rengui, who was also dressed as an old farmer, carefully picked up the vegetables that fell off the plate with chopsticks and threw them into his mouth.
Yun Chu threw away the frying pan and said to Liu Ren: "The ceremony of conferring the queen should have started now. Empress Wu is now accepting the worship of hundreds of officials and female relatives. Has Madam-in-law gone?"
Liu Rengui opened a jar of wine and said, "You know how to send your wife? Am I really the fool you say you are?"
"Tell me, if historians record the two of us in the future, will they record us in "The Biography of Ni Xing"?"
Liu Rengui shook his head and said: "I don't know how. There is a high possibility that you will enter "The Biography of Ni Xing"."
Yun Chu smiled and said: "I think it is a good thing to be able to join Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.
It is better to have a good harvest if you work hard in farming. It is better to meet a king who appreciates you if you work well as an official.
This is what is said at the beginning of "The Biography of Ni Xing". It can be seen that when Tai Shigong wrote "The Biography of Ni Xing", he was also in a mood of envy, jealousy and hatred.
It’s written, right?”
Liu Rengui chuckled and said: "There is also Deng Tong, the richest man in the world. Without even saying a word, he ended up having his house confiscated. He still owes the court hundreds of millions. The money given to him by the eldest princess Liu Piao will be paid immediately.
He was searched and taken away by the officials, not even a hairpin was left for him, and he eventually starved to death.
So, I think you are not like Wei Qing or Huo Qubing, but more like Deng Tong..."
