These big guys have high status. Chang Yu came to the house to greet him personally, but he couldn't arrange a place with those eunuchs, otherwise it would be a mess. They are natural enemies. No one would look at each other. It's impossible.
Fortunately, we still have to trash talk each other in a weird way.
The big guys have just been arranged here, and the nobles over there have also come to the door. Dukes and uncles are coming one after another, which makes the people who are watching the excitement outside surprised. How come there are so many distinguished guests coming to congratulate them? These two personal attendants are so proud.
It's also too big.
"Are you stupid? This is the face of the two servants, and the face of the eunuch!" Someone sighed and shook his head: "It seems that the servants are getting married, but in fact it is the eunuch who is getting married."
"What you mean is that the eunuch actually married two wives, and the two personal attendants are just used to cover up others' eyes?"
"Damn it, your brain is really... not afraid of being chopped off."
Chang Yu didn't hear this, but he had a big head.
Too many unexpected people came to congratulate me, and too many people came, so I called Mr. Wu and Song Luoshu aside and said: "The Yamen will take half of the gifts I received today!"
The deal was done, and the two of them happily agreed, because the more people who came, the more gifts they would receive! Not to mention other things, the gifts from the nobles were twenty taels per person, so nearly a hundred people came!
Oddly enough, a lot of big-name officials came, but few of those low-level officials from the capital came. Except for the officials from the Thirteenth Law Division who came out of the capital with Chang Yu, there were those who held a housewarming party a while ago.
Almost no officials below the fifth rank came to enjoy free meals.
However, if you think about it carefully, it is understandable that in addition to registering for the wedding banquet this time, you also need to give gifts. In fact, it is okay to send some gifts, but after all, it is two guards who are getting married. They have no friendship or even know each other.
Bringing gifts and drinking wedding wine is too deliberate and doesn't lead to any success. Instead, it makes both parties very embarrassed. Moreover, this kind of occasion cannot be as comfortable and social as a housewarming banquet. If you go around in other people's wedding banquets, the guests will hate you.
The master hates you too.
Simply not coming!
But there are quite a lot of soldiers, and anyone with some friendship is here.
So one courtyard arranged the guests who were soldiers, another courtyard arranged the officials, and VIP seats were set up in two lobbies. In one place were the eunuchs, Wu Mengming, who was responsible for accompanying the guests, and in the other were the chief assistant Li Banghua, the British Duke Zhang Shize and others.
It's finally dark, and the guests are finally here. People sitting in the two large courtyards are slowly chatting and chatting, waiting for the banquet to begin. But before the banquet begins, there is still the most important step, worship!
I pray to heaven and earth to my parents.
Although Emperor Chongzhen was the officiant, there was still a need for an officiant during the ceremony. Unsurprisingly, Chang Yu, who was both a matchmaker and his immediate boss, was promoted to be the officiant. Sitting in the main hall, the two newlyweds entered the hall according to the instructions of the host Li Muxian.
It is required to go through the process one by one.
One is to worship the heaven and the earth, the other is to worship in the high hall, and the husband and wife bow to each other.
What is coincidental and deplorable is that the parents of three of the two newlyweds are not alive, so they can only live in the air.
"After we bow, we are husband and wife. We will be together forever and grow old together," Li Muxian said. The guests watching the excitement outside the door began to boo: "Let the bride rest first. We will drink wine later and have a wedding ceremony."
of……"
"Everyone, please don't worry if you are making wedding arrangements." Li Muchian smiled and said to the two newlyweds, "First kowtow to the Governor and serve tea."
Wu Zhong and Song Luoshu quickly kowtowed to Chang Yu three times, then took the tea cup handed by the maid next to him and offered tea to Chang Yu? Chang Yu drank four cups of tea in one gulp? "Congratulations, I won't say any more."
They are all the governor’s most trusted people. I just hope that I will not let down the people around me in the future.”
"Don't forget the Du Gong's admonishment," the four people said quickly.
"This isn't a warning, it's just what's in your heart. That's all. It's better to say something happy on this special day. The emperor has rewarded you with the jade as you wish, and I will also give you a generous gift." Then he shouted to the door: "Old Jiu, give me a gift."
Get the gift from the Lord".
There was a commotion outside the door. Onlookers, including Chief Assistant Li Banghua and others, were curious about what gifts Chang Yu would give to the two newlyweds. After all, they all knew that Chang Yu was very generous to his subordinates, and he was not short of money.
The gift was covered with red cloth and placed on a long plate. Lao Jiu brought it up and placed it in front of the two newlyweds. Everyone couldn't see what it was for a while, and they all guessed in a low voice.
"Open it for everyone to see what gift the Governor has sent," Wu Mengming shouted from the side.
Chang Yu chuckled: "Since everyone wants to see it, let's open it and take a look." Wu Zhong and Song Luoshu stretched out their hands to uncover the red and white pieces, and the scene was suddenly silent and silent.
Board, the dignified eunuch actually gave them a board each!
"Hey, no, it's a washboard, it's two washboards," some sharp-eyed people couldn't help but blurt out. The crowd immediately became agitated, but they were very confused as to why the washboards were given. After all, they didn't understand the meaning.
"These two washboards are given to Luo Yu and the princess. If they are treated badly after the marriage, they will be punished by kneeling on the washboard to admit their mistake. If they are dissatisfied, they can come to the governor.
Make the decision, in this capital the governor is your mother-in-law, not just the two of you, no matter who dares to bully you, please ask me first, Chang Yu, if I agree!" Chang Yu's aura changed as he spoke, and everyone in the courtyard was shocked.
I couldn't help being surprised, the aura was so powerful that I almost suffocated.
Mr. Wu and Song Luoshu didn't dare to talk to each other, but Zhu Yan and Song Luoyu were so excited that they couldn't control themselves and cried like pear blossoms with raindrops.
Although Zhu Yan is a princess, she is married thousands of miles away. If she suffers any grievances, she can't count on her mother's family. As for Song Luoyu's parents are gone, let alone her mother's family. At this time, Chang Yu's words,
It just hit the two of them at their most vulnerable point.
The same words also made the onlookers think deeply, especially Li Banghua and others who had a great change in their hearts towards this little eunuch.
Chang Yu stood up and helped Zhu Yan and Song Luoyu up, but Luo Yu was so emotional that she couldn't stand upright because she was crying. Chang Yu supported her and said, "You once protected the safety of my governor, and you also went into battle with me to kill him."
The enemy has never seen you shed a tear, but now you are crying like a girl."
One sentence made Song Luoyu burst into tears and laugh: "Duke, I am a woman even though I am in a humble position."
"Humph, now I know that I am a woman." Chang Yu pretended to be angry and said, "Think more about the fact that I am a girl in the future." Song Luoyu whispered quietly, and Wu Zhong giggled: "Don't worry, Governor, I will never do anything in the future."
I won’t let Luo Yu be bullied. I will listen to him in everything, and I will give her all my salary from now on..."
Unexpectedly, Chang Yu just rolled his eyes at him: "Please, when you get your salary, can you pay back what you lent me first..." Everyone burst into laughter. Li Banghua and other cabinet ministers looked at each other and shook their heads with a bitter smile. This eunuch is really...
Unfathomable.
"Eunuch Chang, we are having such a great time today. Can you leave a masterpiece about this scene for us to appreciate?" At this moment, Wu Xuan, the second assistant, stood up and said with a smile on his face, which immediately caused everyone to boo.
Li Banghua also nodded: "Eunuch Chang's recent masterpieces have been released one after another, including the heart-warming service to the country, the majestic Spring Snow in Qinyuan, and the soul-stirring Smiling Proud Jianghu. They are all top-notch works. Eunuch Chang is also the best.
It is said to be a masterpiece of literature in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and today, on this special day, it will open our eyes again."
Unexpectedly, Chang Yu raised his eyebrows: "Not good at this!"
Everyone was shocked!
What does it mean to be not good at this, not good at poems and songs? Doesn’t that mean that the previous ones are plagiarism?
Of course Chang Yu would not admit that he was just not good at loving children.
Everyone then suddenly realized that after careful consideration, most of what this little eunuch did was related to the military or expressing his feelings through scenery, and it really had nothing to do with the love between his children.
The reason why Chang Yu refused was actually because he was out of stock. He could not plagiarize what he had done before the Ming Dynasty. After the Ming Dynasty, only Nalan and Yuan Mei were famous. Moreover, his works had little to do with love or anything like that, at least they were not relevant to today.
of this scene.
But Wu Xuan did not give up: "Eunuch Chang is not good at affection between children, so I will do what you are good at."
Chang Yu secretly cursed this old man, knowing that he had been pretending too much recently, leaving these civil servants with nowhere to show their faces. At the same time, he also wanted to see if he had such knowledge and talent.
"My family is not good at drinking and cannot learn Li Taibai's hundreds of poems about drinking wine, let alone Cao Zijian's ability to compose a poem in seven steps. Even if we were killed on the spot, we would not be able to come up with a sentence for you. The sages once said that articles are made by nature.
A skillful hand accidentally picked it up, and what came out when he opened his mouth were words, not articles." Chang Yu's words were neither soft nor hard, but they were just right. Let alone writing poems and songs, even a normal person who poops and urinates cannot poop or pee at any time.
from.
Although Wu Xuan still wanted to resist, you can't force people to compose poems for you on this occasion. It was a wedding, so he left with a haha, and Li Muchian shouted to start the party.
"You guys won't come home until you're drunk, so go ahead and drink!" The straight man from Wuzhong, a steely man who couldn't say anything, was already in the wine. He told everyone to drink hard, but the guests asked him not to drink too much.
I can’t have a bridal chamber at night!
The wedding wine gets to your head as soon as you drink it, and you can't stop drinking it. Hundreds of guests in the courtyard are drinking and laughing, and the pleasant people watching the excitement outside the courtyard linger for a long time. The night is getting darker and darker, and the wine is getting sweeter and fragrant. The bright moon in the sky
It's also getting brighter and brighter.
Wuzhong and Song Luoshu toasted back and forth across the four courtyards of the two houses. Even if the two of them were huge, they could not help but stumble around. Chang Yu was responsible for entertaining the distinguished guests. He would go to the eunuchs to chat for a while, and then go to the nobles to have a drink.
When he moved to the table of cabinet ministers, he was already top-heavy as he had a low drinking capacity. Fang followed him step by step for fear that he would fall over.
The topics at the banquet table among cabinet ministers are always heavy. These veterans almost always talk about government affairs. They inevitably ask about Chang Yu's trip to Jizhou and his next step. Although Chang Yu is drunk, he also knows what to say and what not to say.
After talking for a while, he got up to go elsewhere, but suddenly he leaned at the door and looked at the bright moon in the sky, and softly chanted: "The moon in the sky is the most pitiful for hard work."
Ah, the big guys were startled and glanced at each other. Wu Xuan stood up and walked to Chang Yu's side at the door: "Eunuch Chang, are you pitying the moon that day?"
Chang Yu ignored him, looked at the bright moon in the sky and softly chanted: "Toil is the most pity for the moon in the sky, it is like a ring overnight, and it becomes a knot every night."
Just like the moon, it will always be bright and clear, and the ice and snow will keep you warm.
It is not easy to cut off the fate of the mortal world, but the swallow remains the same, softly stepping on the curtain hook.
After singing, the sorrow in the autumn graves has not stopped, and the spring bushes recognize the two-dwelling butterflies."
Damn it! All the big guys present were shocked inside and out. None of them were well-educated people. This is a song about butterfly love. The opening chapter is clear and poignant, and the second part is about seeing things and thinking about people. This should be a song of mourning.
Poem: This little eunuch is young but has a lot of stories to tell. On his subordinate's happy day, he saw the bright moon and missed his old friend.
But no matter what, this is an excellent song.
Until Chang Yu left, no one here could recover. Wu Xuan smiled bitterly and shook his head before returning to his seat and sitting down. He raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp. Hard work and diligence are nothing compared to talent!
The invisible 13 is the most deadly, and Chang Yu is the best at it now!
