The Legend of Yuan Yao in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 49 You secretly changed your mind

Although Shouchun City is in the midst of cold winter, it is very lively, especially in the largest mansion in the city, which is already crowded with people.

According to the Zhou etiquette, when getting married, the righteousness of the couple and the kindness of marriage are emphasized. There is no hustle and bustle of later generations, and too many guests will not be entertained.It was only at the end of the Han Dynasty that wedding banquets began to rise gradually. During the marriage, the husband's family was congratulated by the guests, and the house was filled with wine and meat.

Marriage as the son of a vassal is naturally full of excitement, regardless of whether Yuan Shu is going to see it or not, on this day, it is always necessary to save face.

It's just that the wedding process of the couple will not be held in front of the guests, let alone stand at the door in a daze to accept congratulations from the guests.

The guests come here to express their congratulations and present a small gift.On the other hand, they also took advantage of the opportunity to contact each other, especially those who were reluctant to be left in Huainan. It was really exciting to meet some familiar faces.

For example, the two brothers Jian Yong and Sun Gan met some old acquaintances today.

"Brother Zizhong! But it's been a long time!"

Mi Zhu, who was the envoy to see off relatives, was naturally invited to Yuan Yao's wedding banquet. He didn't think this was entering the mansion, so he heard two familiar and earnest calls.

Looking back, it was Jian Yong and Sun Gan.

Seeing him as an old acquaintance, Mi Zhu was also very happy, and immediately asked with concern: "Brother Xianhe, brother Gongyou, how are you two spending this birthday?"

As soon as the words were out of the mouth, the expressions of the two of them changed several times, and they responded with some embarrassment: "It's okay, it's okay."

Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Mi Zhu's heart skipped a beat, thinking that it was Yuan Gonglu who made things difficult for them.

Immediately, his face changed, and he lowered his voice and asked, "But Yuan Gonglu made it difficult for you two? If that's the case, then Yuan Yao really can't be regarded as a wise man!"

If Yuan Yao listened to it, he would immediately jump out and point at Mi Zhu, the old fat man, and shout: "Hey, why is it my fault for the mistakes made by this old man?"

Fortunately, Mi Zhu's anger didn't last long, and Jian Yong replied with some embarrassment: "It's not embarrassing for the two of us, it's just"

Half of Jian Yong's words were in an unspeakable look.

Mi Zhu couldn't figure out the way for a while, and was about to ask again, but saw Yan Xiang walking over, and said with a smile while walking: "Jian Gongcao, Sun Gongcao, did you two meet someone you know?"

meritorious service?

Mi Zhu was startled when he heard that.

These two people did not have the official title of meritorious service in Liu Huangshu's place. Now that Yan Xiang is called so, it must be that Jian Yong and Sun Qian have already voted for Yuan Shu.

Should not be!

Jian Yong and Sun Gan are very famous, so how could they change families so easily?

All of a sudden, Mi Zhu couldn't help but start to wonder if it was wrong for him to value Uncle Liu so much, why all of them betrayed Uncle Liu!

Jian Yong and Sun Gan were speechless for a while, it wasn't that they wanted to become officials, it was that Yan Xiang was really bad!

Originally, the two of them were determined not to become officials for Yuan Shu, but Yan Xiang directly arranged the two of them in a remote and poor place regardless of their willingness or not.

Poverty is poverty, and the two of them are not people who can't bear it.It's just that Yan Xiang would let the two go so easily, not only put the two in that place, but also took most of the local bureaucrats away because of a disagreement.

This is great, the order in the local area is instantly disordered, not to mention the hardships of the people, and now that there are no people in charge, it is even more unbearable.

Seeing that the common people are like this, how can Jian Yongsun be hardened.

As a result, one or two trivial matters were dealt with, and immediately someone with good deeds declared in front of the people that the two of them were two heroes.This is great, one pass on ten to one hundred, and the common people all call themselves that.

Under the fait accompli, Jian Yong and Sun Qian suddenly felt that although they did not accept Yuan Shu's appointment and dismissal.

No, it should be said that Yuan Shu didn't appoint or dismiss the two of them at all, but simply left himself here, and actually worked for Yuan Shu.

With the appointment of Yuan Shu a few days later, I still refused to accept it. I didn't want to, and I didn't know where the local people got the news, so they went directly to the residence and asked the two to be officials here.

What it was like when Uncle Liu Huang gave Xuzhou three times back then, Jian Yong and Sun Qian felt it.

Looking at the earnest eyes of the people, how can it be so easy to let go.

Just so confused, he became Yuan Shu's meritorious service.It's just that the two are only in the local area and rarely come to Shouchun.

This time Yuan Yao's wedding banquet, the two had no interest at all, and it was Yuan Yao who forced them to "welcome" them back to Shouchun.

It's just that it's not easy to tell Mi Zhuming the details, and when he heard Yan Xiang's address, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Yan Xiang looked at the deflated expressions of the two of them, not to mention how much he admired his son in his heart.

Harness the power of the masses.

Arrange some of your own among the crowd.

Do things first, appoint and remove later.

These weird methods really opened my eyes and broadened my thinking a lot.

"It's rare for a few of you to get together, and I, Yan Xiang, are not likely to disturb you."

Yan Xiang greeted him, pointing out Jian Yong and Sun Gan's current status in Yuan Shu's army, and walked away leisurely.

Only Mi Zhu was left looking at the two sadly.

You agreed to accompany the uncle to grow old together, but you secretly changed your mind!

Yuan Yao didn't know that Mi Zhu's heart was being shocked one after another. He was wearing a black dress (the color of red in black), sitting opposite Lu Lingqi.

The position of the opposite table is male west and female east, which means the intersection of yin and yang.

There are two cups of wine and a plate of meat in front of them.

Lu Lingqi on the opposite side made up a little bit, which is not an exaggeration.But perhaps under the atmosphere of this kindness, Yuan Yao's heart beat violently unconsciously.

But seeing Lu Lingqi on the opposite side lowered her head and lowered her eyes, she didn't dare to look directly at her.

To be honest, Yuan Yao was not originally handsome and mighty, but after spending a long time in the army, he somewhat lost his sternness and became more bloody.

However, this is the temperament that makes Lu Lingqi most intoxicated.

Lu Lingqi already felt dizzy all over, but mechanically followed the instructions of her elders and completed the steps of the wedding step by step.As for Yuan Yao's face, I dare not even look at it.

But he heard Yuan Huan shouting loudly: "Eat together in the prison, drink together!"

It was Lu Lingqi who secretly glanced at Yuan Yao, but seeing that this guy was staring at her closely, her heart was agitated, and she hurriedly avoided it.

Lowering his eyes, he just looked at the wine glasses on the table, and put the one in front of him in front of Yuan Yao.

It was also seen that Yuan Yao brought over the wine glass in front of him.

This is the cross-cup wine, unlike the contemporary drinking around the neck, the Han-time cross-cup wine is just exchanging wine glasses and drinking the Hebei wine together, which symbolizes the meaning of husband and wife sharing joys and sorrows.

From then on, you will live up to me, and I will not live up to you.

Chapter 50

After drinking the cup of wine, it's time to worship heaven and earth.

Of course, the worship hall at this time is very different from the worship hall after Tang and Song Dynasties. There is no ritual of first worshiping heaven and earth, second worshiping high hall, and three times worshiping each other.

However, Yuan Yao always felt that this wedding could not have such a step, so he carefully mentioned it to Yuan Huan, an old stubborn.

Originally thinking that Yuan Huan would only follow the ancient etiquette, he probably couldn't agree.As soon as I didn't want to mention it, the old man Yuan looked at him with shining eyes, and he didn't refuse at all, he just agreed.

How did Yuan Yao know that the worship he proposed to heaven and earth, Gaotang, and husband and wife, in Yuan Huan's view, was deeply rooted in the thought of thanking God, thanking his parents, and paying for his life.

If it weren't for a virtuous person, how could he make such a suggestion!

They even intend to promote it extensively in the future, at least in Huainan, people who are about to get married will be allowed to perform this three-prayer ceremony on the wedding day.

To let Yuan Yao know that he worked so hard in Jiangdong and did not impress Yuan Huan, and casually propose a worship etiquette, but it will make Yuan Huan start to value himself, and I am afraid that he will spit out a mouthful of old blood.

I also don't understand what the ancients were thinking.

Yuan Yao and Lu Lingqi knelt side by side and bowed outwards to heaven and earth.He turned around again, looked at his father Yuan Shu who was full of joy in the high hall, and his mother who was beside him with a loving smile, and bowed again earnestly.

No matter how much my cheap father cheated on my son, in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, my biggest reliance was actually my status as the son of the later general, at least so far.

Yuan Shu was bowed by the newcomer, but he didn't say anything, just looked at Yuan Yao below and felt that his child had really grown up.Now that they are all married, they can share their father's worries.

The thought that Yuan Yao is inferior to Sun Ce will no longer appear in his mind.

After the second bow, Yuan Yao turned sideways again and looked at Lu Lingqi.

Since there was no such thing as a red hijab at this time, Lu Lingqi's charming face was fully displayed.

Yuan Yao suddenly felt a little nervous, and with a long sigh of relief, he heard Yuan Huan shouting "husband and wife worship each other", so he hurriedly knelt down and bowed.

Lu Lingqi watched Yuan Yao take the lead in bowing down, without any hesitation, she knelt down and bowed immediately.

The two worship each other deeply, and so far they are also of the same heart as husband and wife.

After the ceremony, Yuan Yao and Lu Lingqi took the small knife handed by Yuan Huan, each cut off a handful of each other's hair, rubbed them together and put them in the kit, indicating that the two had already tied their hair.

At this point, all the steps are completed, and the next step is to send it to the bridal chamber.

It's a pity that I can't applaud love yet.

This Han Dynasty also had the custom of making bridal chambers.

As the saying goes, on the night of marriage, there is no difference between men and women.There is no need to talk about traditional etiquette on the day of the bridal chamber, and men and women can play casually.There are even drunken outrageous behaviors.

In fact, it can be said that there have been accidents in the bridal chamber since ancient times. According to records, there was a man named Du Shi in Runan who married a wife. A friend of his named Zhang Miao joked about making a new house, tied up Du Shi and beat him twenty. He then hung Du's hands and feet high on the beam, and Du died.

In fact, Yuan Yao has always looked down upon the custom of building a new house, even a little disgusted.

This is a festive event, but some people don't know the importance and don't know the good and the bad, and use the etiquette as an excuse to do the dirty things in their hearts.

That's why Yuan Yao didn't care about tearing off his face, and ordered that only female relatives should have a bridal chamber, and drinkers were not allowed to enter.

However, the constraints that should be restrained should also be lively.

The most excited person in the bridal chamber was Yuan Jiao, holding a short sword and leading the little lolita trainer to run around, saying that she wanted to slay demons.

This has to start with the origin of the new house.

It is said that a long time ago, when Ziwei Xing went down to earth one day, he met a woman in sackcloth and filial piety, following a group of bridegrooms. He saw that the devil was waiting for an opportunity to do evil, so he followed the bridegroom's house, and saw the woman Arrived first, and hid in the bridal chamber.

When the bride and groom were about to enter the bridal chamber after worshiping heaven and earth, Ziweixing guarded the door and refused to let them in, saying that there was a devil hiding inside.

Everyone asked him to give advice on how to get rid of the devil, and he suggested: "The devil is most afraid of crowds. If there are many people, the devil will not dare to do evil."

So, the groom invited the guests to play and laugh in the bridal chamber, driving away evil spirits with laughter.Sure enough, at five o'clock, the devil finally escaped.

Yuan Jiao was waving the dagger there, and the foot trainer next to her was not to be outdone, and she didn't know where the girl got the small wooden dagger, and she followed Yuan Jiao's example and waved it all over the sky.

It's a pity that the little hands are too short, even if they are jumping and jumping, the radius of waving is no more than half a meter.

After staying in Shouchun for a long time, the girl Bu Lianshi has become much more cheerful.

The rest of the seven aunts and eight aunts also offered congratulations.

This woman doesn't know anything else, but she understands the dignified status of the son and grandson of the Yuan family, so she talks a lot of good things, boasting that Yuan Yao and Lu Lingqi are both talented and beautiful, and they are a good match.

The crowd frolicked for a while, Yuan Jiao and Bu Lianshi were already sweating in the cold weather before they stopped.

A few older mothers came in to disperse the tents, and a group of people gave up and left the new house one after another.

After a busy day, Yuan Yao was able to spend time alone with Lu Lingqi.

But Lu Lingqi in front of her was obviously very nervous, her hands were tightly twisted together, and her face was already bright red.

At this moment, Yuan Yao also knew that there was no need to be impatient. Naturally, the wedding night in the bridal chamber should not be in a hurry, but said softly: "Lingqi, I don't want you and me to have such a fate. In the future, please give me more advice."

I wanted to use this method of boiling frogs in warm water, step by step, and mention some common memories first.

I don't want to see Lu Lingqi roll her eyes as soon as the words are out of her mouth, and she resumes her stern look and responds: "What's more, I asked my husband... what are you doing here, my husband, and you still pretend to be good. You are here to propose marriage, but you are talking about alliances?" thing."

Yuan Yao was sweating profusely when he heard that, he didn't want Lu Lingqi to remember the first meeting so clearly.

Just as she was about to speak, she heard Lu Lingqi continue: "Speaking of which, since you were able to go down to Jiangdong, you even defeated Liu Yao, so brave and extraordinary, why didn't you want to compete with me at the beginning?"

Unexpectedly, Lu Lingqi was so obsessed with this matter, Yuan Yao just smiled wryly and said: "Madam and I have been together for so many days in Xuzhou, how can I not know the level of husband, really compared, but it is also in front of Madam It's just a shame."

But Lu Lingqi shook her head and said: "Now I know that my husband is very talented. Speaking of which, the title of Jiangdong Xiaolangjun did not appear for nothing. Lingqi really admires it."

To be honest, looking at Lu Lingqi, who used to despise her, now admires her so much, it is impossible for Yuan Yao not to be indifferent.But this wedding night in the bridal chamber cannot be spent in this gossip.

"Cough cough."

Yuan Yao also cleared his throat, and said solemnly: "Madam, it's getting late, let's go to bed earlier."

Lu Lingqi trembled all over when she heard the words, but she also knew that this was coming after all, so she responded forcefully: "I will undress your husband."

As he spoke, his hands trembled slightly, and they rested on Yuan Yao's waist.

Yuan Yao couldn't hold it back, and hugged Lu Lingqi directly, only to feel that the girl had lost all strength and seemed to be falling apart, and she just let herself move.

It was the powder sweat that wet Wu Ling, and the jade hairpin knocking on the edge of the pillow. I can't describe the atmosphere of this night in detail.
