Thirty-seven, wedding night with flowers and candles (Part 2)
Morning clouds and dusk rain linger all night long. The fragrance is so beautiful and the love is so rich and moist that it is difficult to describe it in detail.
The dozen or so maids of the Lu family and the Xie family who were waiting downstairs in the library were a little nervous at first, fearing that the phoenix and phoenix upstairs would cause trouble again, but unexpectedly, it was calm, the autumn sound was soft, and the moonlight was deep.
The short hoe looked at the hairpin flowers, and then at the catkins on Xie's side. Everyone was smiling, and the originally tense mood suddenly relaxed. Well, it's great. The crisis has been resolved. However, if you want to think more deeply,
I felt blushing again——
Short hoe and Hairpin flower agreed that one would sleep half the night and the other half the night, waiting for summons from upstairs at any time. Xie's Liuxu and Yinfeng also had the same division of labor, and there were two maids on duty. By about nine o'clock in the morning
, rays of light shone in the eastern sky, and it was almost dawn. A servant girl rushed to the kitchen and ordered water to be prepared for the newlyweds to bathe. Another experienced servant girl asked a short hoe and catkins to use a fine lacquer plate to clean the land and thank the two girls for their underwear.
The obscene skirts were sent up. The two girls wore last night obviously needed to be changed——
Short hoe asked: "What about Chen Langjun? Doesn't Chen Langjun need to be replaced?"
The servant woman was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Mr. Chen, don't care about him, we only care about our own wives."
The short hoe gave a "chi" smile and held it with the catkins. Xie and the two girls went upstairs to put on their clothes and tiptoed to the bedroom. The door was already locked from the inside. I remembered that last night they waited on the newlyweds and gave them a glass of wine.
Later, when he went out, the door was ajar. It must have been Chen Langjun who got up and closed the door——
The short hoe and the catkin looked at each other and snickered, waiting outside the door.
…
When Xie Daoyun woke up, she felt exhausted and her crotch was a little sore, as if she had been jolted too much when she first entered Xifu when she learned to ride a horse. She let out a moan deep in her throat. When she opened her eyes, she saw two big eyes separated from each other.
Looking at her very closely, he couldn't help being startled. He threw his head back. When he looked again, the two big eyes had been closed. It was Lu Weirui——
After a while, Lu Weirui's eyelashes trembled, and she slowly opened her eyes again. Seeing Xie Daoyun still looking at her, she couldn't help but flushed. She was embarrassed to close her eyes again, so she lowered her eyelashes and called out in a low voice: "
Sister Daoyun——"
Xie Daoyun responded, turned around and looked around, and saw Chen Caozhi sleeping on one side with his head raised to the sky, his hair disheveled, his clothes messy, and there was no trace of the gentle and elegant demeanor of a celebrity!
Xie Daoyun turned around and met Lu Weirui's eyes. Both women's faces turned red. They turned their heads to avoid looking at each other. Their hearts were pounding. Thinking about the indulgence last night, I really couldn't believe it.
How could you let your husband do such nonsense? It’s so ridiculous, I won’t do it again!
It was already dawn. Since it was not good to lie down like this after waking up, Xie Daoyun and Lu Weirui quietly sat up and tried not to disturb Chen Caozhi. They each took some obscene clothes to cover their bodies, but they felt a little unclean and wanted to call the maid to bring some clothes.
Come on, I feel like this is very indecent——
Suddenly he saw Chen Caozhi kicking his legs, and suddenly he sat up, looked at Xie Daoyun, then at Lu Weirui, his eyes were clear, and he said with a smile: "You two ladies, please be polite to your husband." After saying that, he knelt down and saluted solemnly.
Although Lu Weirui and Xie Daoyun knew that it was a joke to salute their husband when he was disheveled, they had no choice but to return the salute. The two of them had no choice but to return the salute in half-clothed clothes, and they treated each other with respect as if they were guests——
Xie Daoyun secretly laughed in his heart: "Chen Zizhong, I still haven't seen through you. It turns out you have such an absurd and lazy side!"
Chen Caozhi stood up, shook his clothes and said, "I'm going to call someone to serve you." He lifted the curtains, walked to the door and opened the door. He saw two people, Hoe and Catkin, holding lacquer plates in their hands. Their faces were red and they bowed and said, "See you, maid."
Pass Chen Langjun."
Chen Cao said: "You go in and wait for the two ladies to get up."
Short hoe, Catkin responded and stepped sideways.
Chen Caozhi came downstairs and saw Xiaochan coming. He was asking his maid to prepare water for him to bathe——
…
At midnight, Chen Caozhi, who was clean and tidy, Lu Weirui and Xie Daoyun, who were dressed in auspicious clothes, went to the main hall to say hello to the two elders Chen Xian and Chen Man. However, they saw that their sixth uncle, Chen Man, looked sleepy. Chen Caozhi hurriedly asked
Is Uncle Six not in good health? Chen Man laughed and said, "My uncle is in good health, but he is just a little tired. It doesn't matter."
Chen Caozhi was very grateful, but he didn't know that his sixth uncle barely slept last night. He was counting the guests' gifts. It took him half of the night and he still couldn't count them all. There were so many gifts!
Chen Caozhi and Lu and Xie went back to the inner courtyard to pay their respects to their two aunts, and finally went to the "Shuixiang Pavilion" to pay their respects to their sister-in-law Ding Youwei. Lu Weirui and Xie Daoyun knelt down holding bamboo vessels filled with dates, chestnuts, chestnuts, etc.
Sister-in-law Ding Youwei ate it. This gift was originally intended for Chen Cao's parents, but both Chen Cao's parents died. The Chen family in the West Building took Ding Youwei as their eldest son, so the two daughters of Lu and Xie discussed with Chen Cao and decided to give this gift to Ding Youwei.
, Ding Youwei was very relieved to see Xiao Lang and his two wives coming in harmony. He symbolically took the dates and chestnuts presented by the two women and ate a few, then invited the newlyweds to have a meal at the "Water Champs" -
—
Now there is another problem. According to the etiquette, the bride and groom are required to go back to the bride’s house to visit the bride’s parents on the day after the wedding. But now there are two brides and only one groom. What should we do? Xie An’s clever trick is to make no distinction between the two brides.
So far, everyone is happy, what should we do now?
Ding Youwei suggested: "Is it okay for Xiaolang, Wei Rui and Dao Yun to go to the Lu Mansion together, meet with Lu Shijun and his wife, and then go to the Xie Mansion to meet the elders of the Xie family together?"
Lu Weirui and Xie Daoyun both thought this was very good. Chen Caozhi immediately ordered people to prepare a car and go first to Lu Mansion and then to Xie Mansion. Fortunately, they were not far apart and did not have to travel too much. The three of them were in Lu Mansion and Xie Mansion.
After eating some fruits, preserved fruits, etc., it was already midnight when we returned to the east garden of Chen's house. That night, Chen Caozhi rested in Xishuanglanglou, and it goes without saying that he and Lu Weirui were affectionate.
If Weng Gu is not in the hall, the bride must go to her husband's ancestral hall within three months to pay homage to her ancestors. Only after bowing, can the bride be truly recognized by her husband's clan and become a member of her husband's family.
Chen Caozhi was busy with military affairs and only had two months of wedding leave, and Qian Tang was thousands of miles away, so three days after the wedding, Chen Caozhi took Lu Weirui and Xie Daoyun back to his hometown——
The day before, Chen Caozhi visited Xi Bao, the guest of Qin, and Murong Ling, a native of Yan respectively. Chen Caozhi said to Murong Ling: "Your Highness, I have been thinking hard about the illness of King Taiyuan for the past two days, but there is no good solution. Moreover, doctors pay attention to the principle of observation, hearing, inquiry and diagnosis.
I met King Taiyuan last year and gave him the improved Five Stone Powder. But now, King Taiyuan’s old disease has relapsed due to overwork and improper diet. I don’t know what his condition is, so I dare not prescribe the medicine.
!”
Murong Ling frowned. His idea was of course to take Chen Caozhi to Yecheng to treat Murong Ke. However, Chen Caozhi was a minister of the Jin State, and the Jin State's reconstruction of the Beifu Army was obviously aimed at their Yan State. Chen Caozhi
As Sima of Sizhou and General of Beifu, even if he is not newly married and wants to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors, there is absolutely no reason to go to Yan State to practice medicine——
Chen Caozhi said again: "Please tell King Taiyuan that you don't need to take Wu Shi Powder for the time being. Your condition has changed and it is no longer appropriate to take Wu Shi Powder anymore. You should follow the advice of the imperial physician of Yan State for medicine. As for diet, the first thing is not to take it."
Sweets, nothing else to avoid.”
Murong Ling kept it in mind and thanked Chen Caozhi. Chen Caozhi also expressed his kindness to Murong Chui's son. According to historical records, after Murong Ke's death, Taifu Murong Ping wanted to kill Murong Chui. It was Murong Ling who persuaded his father to defect to Di Qin.
, now Chen Caozhi is on good terms with Murong Ling. Once the Yan Kingdom is in chaos, Murong Chui and his son will not be able to find a place in the Yan Kingdom. And Qin Fu Jian hates the Xianbei people very much because the Xianbei people slandered him as not being the son of Fu Xiong. Murong Chui once led an army.
To attack the Qin Dynasty, Murong Ling most likely persuaded his father to flee south to the Jin Dynasty——
Chen Caozhi was planning everything all the time, just for the Northern Expedition!
The day after Chen Caozhi left Beijing to return to his hometown, Murong Ling and Murong Chong and a group of 200 people also left Jiankang and returned to the north. Murong Chong was very depressed. Chen Caozhi's two wives did not see them.
He was intimidated by Chen Caozhi's clan brothers. He angrily beat and scolded the soldiers all the way, and scolded Chen Caozhi. He imitated the tone of his sister, Princess Qinghe, and said that when the Yan army's cavalry swept Jiangdong, Chen Cao would be killed.
Together with his two wives, the Lu family and the Xie family, they were kidnapped to the Yan State as slaves. They were humiliated and humiliated in order to vent their hatred——
Murong Ling and his entourage left early and stayed overnight. In mid-September, they arrived at Gong County on the south bank of the Yellow River. This was where Murong Chui, King of Wu, stationed his troops. Murong Chui was not there. Two days earlier, he received an urgent report from Yecheng that Murong Ke, King of Taiyuan, was critically ill.
, Murong Chui rushed back to Yecheng to visit——
Murong Ling was shocked when he heard this, and without rest, he crossed the river and headed north. He returned to Yecheng on September 26th and rushed to Taiyuan Palace. However, the guards were tight. It turned out that Murong Ke was terminally ill and bedridden. Today, Yan
Lord Murong Wei visited the palace in person and asked Murong Ke about his future affairs——
Murong Ke cheered up and said to Murong Wei, the sixteen-year-old Lord of Yan: "I heard that I can repay my kindness by recommending scholars. It is still possible to build a brick building, and Kuang Guo's Yifan! The King of Wu valued both civil and military talents and took charge of Xiao Zhiya. If your Majesty is allowed to do so,
If you use political power, the country will be safe, otherwise, I will be afraid of Guanlong, and the two bandits from Jiangdong will definitely have a plan to covet him." After saying this, Murong Wei also cried sadly.
——Murong Ke felt that his illness was getting worse after he came to Yecheng from Pu Ban, and he began to make arrangements for his death. What Murong Ke was most worried about was that the young master of Yan, Murong Wei, could use the Queen Mother to control the Hun family's affairs, and the Taifu Murong Ping
He had many suspicions by nature, so he recommended Murong Chui as the Grand Sima twice, saying: "——The King of Wu is talented and talented, and his strategy is overtime. The Sima position is to control the army and cannot lose people. After the minister dies, he will be awarded.
, the national security is really at risk here.”
The Grand Sima is the most important position that controls the military power of the Yan State. It has always been held by the Grand Prime Minister Murong Ke. Now that Murong Ke is dead, the Queen Mother can ask the Hun family and the Grand Tutor Murong Ping to discuss how they are willing to let Murong Chui take over this important position.
Next, the imperial edict was issued to worship Murong Zang, king of Le'an, as Grand Sima. Murong Chui, king of Wu, commanded the military affairs of Jing, Yang, Luo, Xu, Yan, Yu, Yong, Yi, Liang, and the ten states of Qin. He was the general who conquered the south, the governor of Jingzhou, and the town.
Luyang——
On the surface, Murong Chui seemed to be in charge of the military affairs of ten states, but most of the states were Xu states, which were the territories of Qin and Jin.
Murong Chui failed to be reused and returned disappointed. The crisis of the Murong clan in Xianbei came.
