On the New Year's Eve of the 17th year of Wanchang, Yun Lan, who was far away in Yanjing, was appointing deputy generals and supervisors for Yunzheng. However, Yunzheng and Yun Yuer went to his uncle Yun Dai's house to celebrate the New Year.
Originally, according to the habits of the Yun family, the generals of the Yun family in Kyoto, including those who had been promoted to higher military positions, were older, and were in the state of "retirement", etc., were supposed to go to the Yun Kingdom on New Year's Eve.
Yun Lan was not in the capital this year to celebrate the New Year. Yun Zheng felt that there were too many ancient etiquettes and were too complicated. He was afraid that something would happen to him and make him laugh, so he pestered his uncle to discuss it. Finally, Yun Zheng
Dai had no choice but to agree that he would host this year's New Year in his own house, but he still insisted on two requirements. The first was that Yunzheng and he must report the matter to Yun Lan together; the second was that the 'Commander's New Year's Speech' must be given by
Yun Zheng said on Yun Lan's behalf that he would never go beyond
Yunzheng thought that if he only said a few words, it would still be acceptable, so he agreed.
But when it came time for him to deliver his speech, he hesitated again. It wasn't a question of whether it was easy to say or not. The key was that he was not sure whether he should say a few words in a formal manner: "The New Year is coming, the weather is refreshing, and you will be determined this year."
But no matter what, our Yun family can do what we can do." He still said proudly, "Come on, uncles and uncles, pick up the wine and do it! Eat big chunks of meat and drink from big bowls!" Okay?
Yun Yu'er saw Yun Zheng sitting there twisting left and right, looking restless, and asked curiously: "Brother, what are you doing? You are moving around, as if you have lice on your body."
Yunzheng was choked by his sister and said angrily: "Tell me, what does my father usually say when he gives his New Year's speech? No matter how much I think about it, I don't have anything good to say..."
"New Year's speech?... Well, dad didn't know what to say when he said this. Just say whatever comes to mind. What's the problem? It doesn't matter if you just say, 'It's the New Year, and Happy New Year to everyone.'
Handsome... Oh, you are the young marshal. They will listen to whatever you say. As long as you don't say depressing words, who cares about this?" Yun Yu'er shook his head, looking like a brat who cannot be taught.
Yunzheng was amused by her, and smiled in his heart: Although I am a young commander, it is good, but after all, these people are elders, and I am not the father, how dare I be so casual? Besides, the sons and grandchildren of these people
But they are all the main generals of the Yun family now and in the future. How can I, the reserve commander, not be more concerned?
Yun Zheng was about to speak, but Yun Yu'er smiled and said: "But, my brother is not only the young marshal of our Yun family, but also the father of the bride, so we can't be so careless." She saw Yun Zheng raise his eyebrows, but
He didn't give him a chance to speak, and rushed to say: "But don't write such a big essay again. We uncles, except for uncles, everyone else will fall asleep listening to it."
"
Yun Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "That's right, but what exactly are you going to say, my Miss Yu'er?"
Yun Yu'er chuckled: "Isn't this easy? How did you, the Tanhua Lang, get it in the first place?"
"What do you mean by cheating?" Yun Zheng said righteously: "It's obviously...forget it, let's not argue with you like a little girl - you mean I write a Spring Festival couplet?"
"Don't always be a little girl, little girl, I'm going to have a wedding ceremony soon! - Why, shouldn't it be difficult for you to write Spring Festival couplets? You are a 'condescending corporal, leaving only Nishan alone' Yun Cheng
Where is Fengyun Tanhua!"
Yun Zheng smiled and scolded: "You girl, you are born with such a sharp tongue. I don't know which young master will suffer in the future."
Yun Yu'er's eyes widened: "I want you to take care of it! - Huh, I'm going to play with the little bell."
The little bell is Yun Ling'er. Yun Dai's only daughter is about the same age as Yun Yu'er. The two little girls have a good relationship.
Yun Zheng saw that Yun Yu'er was like a proud little peacock, turning around and walking away with her head held high. Then he thought about it and it seemed that this idea was not bad, so he called a servant over and asked: "Spring Festival couplets."
Are you done yet?"
The servant said: "I haven't replied to the Third Young Master yet, but the boss is making preparations."
"Oh, there's no need to prepare, just write down what I said and let them write it down and hang it up." Yunzheng said, "The first couplet is: Celebrate this day, the sea and the river are clear, the wind is calm, and the Holy Lord is here to guide you.
The second line of our generation's work of prospering China for thousands of years is: I am happy for this day, the people will be prosperous, the life will be prosperous, the court will be full of virtuous ministers, and the Mingjun will assist you to draw a map of thousands of miles of the country - well, that's it, go and die soon."
The servant turned out to be a clever man. Yun Zheng only repeated it once and he remembered it clearly. Then he hurried to the library to find the masters to write couplets.
As soon as Yun Zheng turned around, he heard Yun Dai's voice: "This couplet is good, it's worth hanging on."
Yunzheng was very surprised. His uncle made no sound when he walked. Suddenly he said such a sentence. Isn't this scary? It's strange that my ears don't work.
Although he had some doubts in his heart, he didn't dare not reply when his uncle spoke. He looked at Yun Dai who was walking over and said with a smile: "This couplet, in fact, the level is nothing, it's just a gesture."
Of course Yunzheng's words are completely true. Look at his first couplet "Celebrating this present day, the sea is clear and the river is clear, the wind is calm, and the Holy Lord is here to lead our generation to prosper China's future." It is clear that he is filming Wanchang.
The emperor's flattering couplet "I am glad that today, the people will be prosperous, the life will be prosperous, the court will be full of virtuous ministers, and the Mingjun will assist the Ming Dynasty to paint a picture of the country." It is a tribute to all the civil and military personnel of the Manchu Dynasty, and no one was left behind.
It can be said that the flattery is so grand.
Yun Dai smiled and said: "This gesture is very necessary. Zheng'er has made great progress this year, and my uncle is very pleased. Well, if you hang this one at the door, will you also give one to our family members who are here today?"
?”
Yun Zheng smiled and said: "That's natural. Well, I also have a couplet for my family. I don't need those formal words, just say some happy words: As time goes by, people live longer, spring fills the universe and brings happiness to the family - uncle, you
What do you think?"
Yun Dai laughed and said, "I think it's great! As time goes by, people live longer, and spring fills the universe with blessings. Well, good, good haha..." Maybe it's the New Year, or maybe he's happy to see Yun Zheng's progress,
Yun Dai smiled very happily today
Seeing that his uncle was happy, Yun Zheng also laughed. However, Yun Dai quickly stopped laughing, thought for a while, and said: "I will leave for Jiangning on the third day of junior high school. Since you plan to do business in partnership with the Thirteenth Princess, wait for her to
After the ceremony, when you go to Huai'an to declare vassal status for the first time, if you are free, you might as well go there with her, firstly to familiarize yourself with the operation below, and secondly...if the emperor agrees to your marriage to her, you are also necessary
I went to Huai’an to have a look.”
When Yun Zheng saw that his uncle was talking about business, he straightened his face and nodded solemnly.
