Ruolan, who had finished washing herself, had a completely different beauty than yesterday. The moisture from the rain and dew made her face radiant and charming, and a woman's unique charm came to her face, like a delicate peach, before and after.
The changes were so big that everyone was stunned.
Ling'er on the side couldn't help but murmured in praise: "Miss, you are so beautiful today. Are all brides like this?"
Hearing Ling'er's cute and naive words, Ruolan couldn't help but stretched out her delicate hand and scratched Ling'er's straight little nose, and said with a blushing face: "Little girl, what do you know? I want to know.
If so, let me teach you in person."
"Ah, let my uncle teach me, I don't want it. Even if I want to teach others, I want my lady to teach me personally." Ling'er, who was still a little confused and ignorant, touched his little nose in confusion and stared at the big curious eyes above.
.
"Pfft!" Ling'er's words made everyone in the room laugh. Ruolan couldn't help but laugh again, and scratched Ling'er's nose with her slender index finger, "Little girl, this kind of thing miss
But I can’t teach you, so I’d better wait for your uncle to teach you in person, and from now on you can’t call me miss, you’ll have to call me madam.”
Ling'er protested in a low voice, somewhat unconvinced: "Miss scratched my nose again. My nose was almost broken by you, so I just want to call you miss."
When he said this, Ling'er seemed to suddenly think of something, and suddenly his face turned red, like a piece of freshly dyed red cloth, and his originally charming and innocent face also showed a twisted look.
"Okay, it's up to you. You can call me whatever you like." Ruolan also had great affection for this little girl who had grown up with her as a sister. After hearing this, she just smiled and shook her head.
He shook his head and ignored the thoughts of this charming little girl and started dressing himself.
After a while, Ruolan and Pang Gang, who had finished dressing up, went to the front hall to pay a visit to their parents. Kong Wen, his wife and Kong Lin's family were all there. After the visit, tea was served and everyone sat down.
Kong Wen looked at the son-in-law sitting in front of him, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became. Although his appearance could not be said to be handsome, he also had good features, especially with the heroic spirit, he looked very majestic and solemn. Now he was even more important to the imperial court.
There are thousands of households in the fifth rank, and they are even more prominent figures in the area of dozens of miles around Lingshan Guard. Moreover, when my daughter looked at Pang Gang today, the tenderness that was so happy that it almost oozed out of her face, even a blind man could see it.
How could he be dissatisfied?
After taking a sip of the tea served by Pang Gang, Kong Wenba smacked his lips and after savoring the fragrance of the tea, he said to Pang Gang: "Xianxiang, from now on we are a real family. From now on, you two
You have to live a good life, if Ruo Lanruo does something that is not to your liking, I hope you will bear with it for my sake."
Pang Gang said hurriedly: "My father-in-law is serious. Ruo Lanlan has a good heart. It is a blessing to marry Ruo Lan. How can the son-in-law criticize her harshly?"
"Well!" Kong Wen nodded and then turned to Ruolan and said: "Ruolan, Chaodong's parents died early and he has no brothers or sisters. Since you married into the Pang family, you are a member of the Pang family. As the saying goes, the male protagonist
Mistress of the house, as the eldest wife of the Pang family, the trivial affairs of the family will depend on you from now on. You are always well-behaved and clever, and a father can rest assured of this, but you must remember that a woman’s first priority is her virtue.
You must keep in mind the steps of motherhood, filial piety, chastity, kindness, propriety, diligence and thrift. If any sisters come into the house in the future, remember to live in harmony and not to be pampered or coquettish."
Kong Wen started to lecture like his father, and Ruolan lowered her head and obediently agreed. However, Pang Qianhu on the side felt a little cold sweat. Damn it, the father-in-law encouraged his son-in-law to accept it in front of his daughter.
Concubine, is this true? Are you being sarcastic? But Pang Gang looked at the father and daughter. The old man's expression was serious, and the woman's attitude was serious. It seemed that she was not joking. Are people in this era all polygamous?
Do you support the system so much?
In fact, this is quite strange for our thousands of families. Since the slave period of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, polygamy has been gradually stipulated in the form of an institution in China. In the feudal period, this system reached its peak. After a period of
After more than a thousand years of evolution and development, this system has been deeply imprinted in people's bones. The "Female Commandments", "Internal Training", "The Analects of Women" and "Nv Fan Jie Lu" used by feudal society to educate women are
For this purpose, among the Ming Dynasty's teachings on women's feudal moral character are virtue, self-cultivation, caution in speech, prudence in action, diligence, thrift, vigilance, accumulation of good deeds, practicing good deeds, respecting holy precepts, respecting virtuous people, and serving parents.
, serve the king, serve the aunt, offer sacrifices, motherly rituals, be harmonious to relatives, sell children, arrest, treat relatives, etc. Twenty chapters.
Of course, such a thing is unbelievable to Pang Gang, a person from later generations, but it is already a very common thing to people of this period. As Pang Gang's head wife, Ruolan has the responsibility to
The husband chooses concubines and reproduces offspring. If she fails to do so, it will be her fault. This crime is very serious for women in this period, and it already falls within the scope of "seven outings".
After finally listening to my cheap father-in-law finish training his daughter, and then it was the mother-in-law's turn, the whole morning passed like this. Just when Pang Gang finished lunch and wanted to inspect the training of new recruits, a man
Xiaoqi, who came from Qingzhou, rode a fast horse to the Lingshan Guard Qianhu Mansion. He stopped at the door and took out his waistband to check with the sergeant guarding the gate. The sergeant guarding the gate nodded after checking and hurried towards the hall.
Just when Pang Gang was saying goodbye to everyone and going to the military camp to inspect the new recruits, this little flag ran into the hall.
Although this Xiaoqi had never seen Qianhu from Lingshan Guards, after seeing Pang Gang who was wearing a fifth-grade flying bear uniform, he immediately understood that this was the rightful owner he was looking for, and he quickly knelt down on one knee and shouted loudly:
Report: "Report, urgent military information forwarded by the commander's yamen!"
Pang Gang took the envelope, tore off the red lacquer seal, took out the letter and looked at it, his expression immediately changed.
Everyone in the living room saw Pang Gang's expression on his face after reading the letter, but they didn't dare to ask. They all looked at each other. Finally, Ruolan, a newlywed wife, asked, "Husband, what happened? Why?"
Did you look so ugly after reading the letter?"
Pang Gang pondered for a moment before saying with a serious face: "The Tatars have entered the border!"
As soon as Pang Gang said this, everyone was shocked!
On the sixteenth day of the first month of the ninth year of Chongzhen, the Qing Wuying princes Azige, Beile Abatai, and Yangguli led the Qing troops and more than 50,000 Mongolian soldiers. After conquering Dushikou, Diaoyabao, and the Chang'anling forts, Hao Hao
They came in force, and soon after capturing Kaiping Guard, they divided into two groups. One group was led by Azige, the king of Wuying County in the Qing Dynasty. Yangguli led 40,000 troops to attack Datong Mansion, and the other group was led by Beile Abatai.
Ten thousand troops were led to attack Baoding Prefecture.
For a time, Datong in Xuanfu Town was surrounded by flames, like hell.
The 10,000 Qing troops led by Abatai rushed all the way to Baoding Prefecture with overwhelming force. The Ming troops along the way collapsed at the first touch, and the Central Plains was filled with mourners.
On January 20th, martial law was imposed in the capital. Emperor Chongzhen urgently ordered his ministers Li Guofu to guard Zijing Pass, Xu Jinzhong to guard Maguan, and Zhang Yuanheng to guard Longquan Pass. Cui Liangyong guarded the passes. At the same time, the Ministry of War of the Ming Dynasty also urgently ordered the general soldiers from various places to quickly lead the troops.
Entering the border and rushing to rescue.
On January 22, the Ministry of War urgently ordered the governor of Shandong: "According to the decree, today's thieves and slaves are going crazy. The emperor has decreed to select elite troops to rush to the aid of the capital, and he also encourages all the soldiers. Hurry!"
On January 25th, the order from the Ministry of War was even more urgent: "Yang Sichang, the Minister of the Ministry of War, ordered the governor of Datong. The slave thieves have become rampant since announcing their entry into the customs. They quickly dispatched officers and soldiers to rush in to help. The date of the arrival of the document in the town is the 29th day of the month."
When you arrive in Beijing on the same day, if you violate the restrictions and do not come to Fuzhen, you will be punished by requesting an order!"
On January 27th, Shandong Commander Liu Zeqing, Datong Commander Wang Pu, Baoding Commander Dong Yongwen, and Shanhaiguan Commander Zu Dashou. In addition, the commanders of the Guan, Ning, Ji, and Mige commanders, Zu Dale, Li Chongzhen, and Ma Rulong all led the troops in
aid.
On the first day of February, a total of 100,000 troops from the Ming Dynasty arrived in the capital one after another, and faced off with 40,000 Qing troops led by Prince Azige of Wuying County outside the capital. The two sides fought several tentative battles with each other, causing casualties on each other.
The 150,000-strong army guarded the area, and everything was safe for the time being. However, because all the elite soldiers from Shanxi and Shandong had been mobilized, there was no heavy protection in these two places. The 10,000 Qing troops led by Beil Abatai immediately occupied the river.
Jianfu made a posture of commanding troops in Shandong, and for a time, the Central Plains was filled with smoke.
Cao Huachun, the eunuch in charge of the Seal of the Supervisor of Ceremonies and the Seal of the Royal Horse Supervisor, suggested to Emperor Chongzhen: "The evil of slaves is widespread, but there are no generals everywhere. We should order the guards from all over Shandong to select capable soldiers and appoint a brave general to lead them.
Rush into the aid of Hejian Mansion and kill the rebel slaves."
At this time, Chongzhen had no idea, so he had to issue an order to the governor of Shandong and the military garrison through the Ministry of War, ordering all the guards in Shandong to immediately send troops to march towards Hejian and intercept the Qing army in the Hejian Mansion area.
Shandong Governor Meng Bozhen and the military garrison Feng Wenlv immediately scolded them after receiving the order from the Ministry of War. They had just transferred all our soldiers, and now they want us to remove the soldiers from the guard station.
We were sent out, but don’t you know how rotten the guard station is now? Do you think it was during the Hongwu and Yongle years? If the soldiers of the current guard station still had the combat effectiveness of that time, let alone Abatai’s 10,000
The Qing soldiers are not afraid even if there are 100,000 Qing soldiers. But now the more than two million guards and garrison troops in the country are more like more than two million farmers than the army. Let our garrison garrison in Shandong
If the army goes to fight those Qing soldiers, you might as well let them die. Besides, the current guard station must have soldiers. Those garrison troops are running away, so where can we find people?
Meng Bozhen and Feng Wenlu, who were finally sick and rushed to the hospital, suddenly remembered that not long ago, a gentry from Qingzhou sued a Lingshan guard named Pang Gang there for killing thousands of good people and taking credit for it? At that time, we brothers were
Having saved you, now it's time for you to repay us. Just like this, a transfer order was sent to the Qingzhou Commander's Office.
