I always thought that Gongsun Yun was a very serious and serious person, but I didn't expect that when they met, he spoke so informally that it choked Long Chen.
After finally returning to the topic, Long Chen immediately talked about the business.
"I must have known that Lao Zhuguo already knew that the Holy Emperor granted me the marriage of the fourth princess, and I also agreed to propose marriage at court."
"But this proposal of marriage must be made by a person of high moral character and respect."
"After all, royal etiquette cannot be careless."
"But Lao Zhuguo, you know that I used to be an officer in the Long Family Army. Now my family has been killed by Li Chengdao. I am alone in this world. When it comes time to propose marriage, no elders come forward."
"So, I would like to ask Lao Zhuguo to propose marriage for me."
After Long Chen finished speaking, Gongsun Yun burst into laughter: "I heard about it just after the court ended yesterday. I will take care of this matter."
"Oh, you are the first prince and the first prince-in-law of the Zhou Dynasty. You must not be careless in etiquette. It must be grand."
"I still have to think carefully about how to arrange this marriage for you."
"But let's talk about the marriage proposal first and then talk about other things."
"This...this matter is important. I need to think about it carefully."
Gongsun Yun regarded Long Chen's marriage as very important.
This matter is not only the wedding of Long Chen and Di Luoxi, but also represents the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Long Chen was the first King Wu and the first prince-in-law of the Zhou Dynasty.
How well this wedding was held reflects Dazhou's strength.
"Old Zhuguo, there's no need to think so complicated, right?"
"When I was in Nanliang, I saw that when a princess gets married, she must follow the royal etiquette, which means accepting her, asking her name, accepting her name, accepting her invitation, asking for an appointment, and welcoming her in person."
When Long Chen was in Nanliang, his eldest brother married the princess of Nanliang, so he knew the general process of the princess's marriage.
Of course, as the youngest brother, Long Chen didn't know much about these matters. They were all handled by the elders in the family and the Ministry of Etiquette.
It stands to reason that the Empress should order Long Chen's wedding to be organized by the Ministry of Etiquette.
But because for hundreds of years in the Zhou Dynasty, there had never been a princess getting married, and the Ministry of Rites didn't understand.
Therefore, the empress did not appoint the Ministry of Etiquette to take care of it, and Long Chen could only ask Gongsun Yun for help.
"No, you can't say that. How can the prince-in-law of Nanliang compare with you?"
"But let's take it step by step. The first thing is to accept it. I will help you propose marriage first."
Gongsun Yun was thinking in his mind and kept talking.
The so-called adoption means paying the bride price.
Generally speaking, the consort first pays homage facing the direction of the palace to express his loyalty and gratitude. Then, led by the marriage holder, he brings the gifts and tokens prepared in advance into the palace, and then delivers them to the emperor through the emissary.
"Well, yes, let's propose marriage first. You have to go back and prepare a memorial to ask the Holy Lord to marry the fourth princess to you."
"Although the Holy Father announced it in court, it was verbal after all. You need to draw up another memorial."
Gongsun Yun lived a long time and knew many things. He could figure out the process of getting married to a princess.
In fact, Gongsun Yun also followed the marriage process of the princess of Nanliang.
Long Chen nodded and said: "Yes, there is such a thing. I want to express my loyalty to the Holy Lord and then ask the princess to marry me."
When the eldest brother married the princess, he also wrote such a memorial.
The eldest brother, a martial arts practitioner, couldn't write a memorial table, so he asked Yu Shinan's students to help draft one.
"Also, you have to prepare a betrothal gift. I know you are not short of money, so don't be stingy."
"Oh, but ordinary betrothal gifts won't do. You have to think of something you can come up with that can shock the world."
Whether in ancient times or modern times, betrothal gifts require money, and so does the emperor.
After all, the emperor's daughter is worth a thousand pieces of gold and is even more expensive.
Long Chen thought for a while and said: "The gift is easy to talk about. I have a big gift for the Holy Lord."
Gongsun Yun asked: "What kind of gift? I know you got something good from Li Chengdao."
Gongsun Yun heard about the theft of Li Chengdao's inner treasury.
It is said that Long Chen stole many priceless treasures.
Long Chen said: "Xixia!"
When he heard the word "Xixia", Gongsun Yun was stunned.
He originally thought that Long Chen would give out some valuable treasure as a betrothal gift, but he didn't expect that a country would be used as a betrothal gift.
"Good! As expected of me, the King Wu of Zhou Dynasty, my consort!"
"With this gift, I dare to be your matchmaker!"
Gongsun Yun was shocked by Long Chen's heroic and domineering attitude.
No one has ever dared to marry a princess with a country as a gift, but Long Chen did.
"Boy, listen carefully, this betrothal gift is going to be announced, and the Holy One will tell the world."
"If you say it but you can't do it, then the fourth princess won't be able to marry you."
Gongsun Yun checked with Long Chen again to see if Long Chen was serious or just talking nonsense on impulse.
Long Chen said very firmly: "I will use Xixia as a gift to marry the fourth princess, Emperor Luo Xi."
Gongsun Yun stared at Long Chen for a while, and then laughed loudly: "Okay, brat, hurry up and write the music table... There is no need to go back, just write it in my study. You have great literary talent and can finish it quickly.
.”
"After writing the memorial, I will go to the palace with you immediately to propose marriage."
Gongsun Yun was very happy.
Long Chen stood up and bowed: "Thank you, Lao Zhuguo."
The steward came over and said, "King Wu, please follow me."
Long Chen followed the housekeeper into Gongsun Yun's study, where there were all pens, inks, paper and inkstones.
Sitting in front of the desk, the housekeeper polished ink for Long Chen.
Spreading out the paper, Long Chen thought for a while and then began to write a table...
In half an hour, the table had been written.
After the ink was dry, Long Chen carefully put away the note and went to the living room.
Gongsun Yun had already changed into his court clothes and put on his crown.
"Let's go!"
Gongsun Yun's carriage was ready, and Zhao Heng held the riding whip.
Long Chen and Gongsun Yun took the same car and slowly headed to the palace.
The wheels of the carriage made a rumbling sound. Gongsun Yun was in a very good mood and said: "You are the first prince-in-law of Zhou Dynasty, and you will give birth to the first emperor grandson of Zhou Dynasty in the future. I hope it will be a boy who will be like you when he grows up."
.”
"Long Cheng'en, I have read through history and there is only one person who can compare to your martial arts skills."
Long Chen was a little curious and asked: "Old Zhuguo is overly praised, but I would like to know who is so powerful?"
Gongsun Yun said: "Martial Saint King Yukun, it is said that he was the Martial Saint hundreds of years ago."
"Originally, there were many small countries in the world, and foreigners were eyeing them. It was he who led the heroes of the world to pacify the foreigners and establish the three-part pattern of the world."
Long Chen had heard of the name of Martial Saint King Yukun.
When I read history books, I also knew about his deeds.
But there was something that Long Chen didn't understand.
Why doesn't such a powerful martial saint dominate the world?
Where are the descendants of Wu Sheng today?
History books say that the Martial Saint had descendants, but there is no record of the descendants at all, as if someone deliberately concealed them.
"Old Zhuguo, I am confused by something. If the Martial Saint is so powerful, why doesn't he rule the world?"
Long Chen expressed his doubts and wanted to hear Gongsun Yun's opinion.
