Rebirth of the Great Power

Chapter 114 New Year's Eve

The emperor's imperial decree to bestow marriage has overwhelmed all the people in the Ministry of Rites.During this period of time, Yu Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was the one who was most in distress.Yu Shangshu's name is Dan, his character is Wenli, and he is only [-] years old. He is already one of the six Shangshu, and his future is limitless.Yu Wenli is familiar with all kinds of etiquette. Since joining the Ministry of Rites, he has done everything with ease, but now he is so worried that he has grown a few more gray hairs.

Ever since he took up the post of Secretary of the Ministry of Rites, the princess has never had time to marry a prince, but now she is going to marry a prince first. This is unprecedented, and there is no precedent.It would be fine if he was an idle and powerless prince. Anyway, if he was to marry, he would marry according to the etiquette of marrying a princess; ", how dare you follow the general royal wedding etiquette.

Yu Wenli hinted to His Majesty several times about his embarrassment and wanted to get a letter, but he didn't know if His Majesty didn't understand or for some other reason, but he was taken back every time.Later, taking advantage of King Xin's presence, Yu Wenli asked for instructions again, this time Xue Chang was no longer ambiguous, but asked directly: "What do you think?"

Ji Jin smiled: "You don't have to embarrass Shangshu Yu, just deal with it according to the etiquette. If there is anything that needs my cooperation, it's okay to say."

Xue Chang also said: "Since Shenzhi said so, Yu Qing can do it with confidence. The ancient rituals must be followed, and the actual situation must also be considered. Yu Qing has always done things safely, and Shenzhi and I are very relieved."

Putting on the tall hat, Yu Wenli had to pick it up, wiped away the sweat that didn't exist in his heart, bowed and said: "I will do my best to handle this matter well."

Once there is a direction, things will be easy to handle. If there are no mistakes in general, the details will be handled accordingly.

Although there is an imperial decree to grant marriage, three letters and six ceremonies are naturally indispensable, but Najib is just going through the motions to accept the lottery.It's just that both parties in the marriage are men, and it always feels a little inappropriate for the female relatives to take care of it. After much deliberation, Yu Wenli found the elders of both parties.

Mu Yuan has both parents, so naturally his father Mu Qian is in charge.Ji Jin's parents died early, so he could only come out from the clan. The patriarch San Shugong is old, so he appointed uncle Ji Hexi to come out.Although members of the Ji clan enjoy the supreme honor and the treatment of the royal family, except for the Xinwang Palace, everyone in the clan is basically keeping a low profile and living a life of seclusion in the city. During the period, they are rarely seen, which can be called mysterious.Many times, people tend to ignore his existence.

This time, King Xin's wedding seemed to have opened some kind of seal overnight. The Ji family, who was so low-key that there was almost no such family, suddenly appeared in front of people, showing the demeanor and background of a wealthy and noble family.Arranging Xinwang's marriage is the first step for them to step into the center of power again.

It is unknown how the noble family in Beijing will react, but Mu Qianzheng has been in close contact with Ji Hexi because of the eldest son's wedding.Ordinarily, this marriage is a high priority for the Mu family. Even if they marry a princess who lives in the deep palace and does not care about political affairs, they will be called "Shangzhu", not to mention that the one who is going to marry now is the high-ranking and powerful prince at that time.For the royal family, there are no serious in-laws. Thunder, rain and dew are all the favor of the king.Although the Ji family is not an imperial family, they are also first-class among the many dignitaries in Daqi. Marrying with the Mu family, who is not even considered an aristocratic family, does not know how many discounts their status has.However, Ji Hexi treats Mu Qianzheng with the same attitude as his in-laws, not to mention the slightest shame and anger of wanting to marry off the best nephew in the family.The other nephews and nephews of the Ji clan that I met occasionally treated Mu Qianzheng respectfully and treated him like an elder.

After several contacts, Mu Qianzheng was both gratified and grateful.

Finally got everything settled before the end of the year, and then waited for the Qin Tianjian to calculate a suitable date before preparing for the big wedding.

Because of the leap in October of the previous year, the new year came late this year, and the weather had already warmed up on New Year's Eve.

Mu Yuan went back to Mu Mansion the day before Hugh Mu.In the court where the imperial edict is located, it is still considered a leisurely place. From New Year's Eve to the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, there are six days of holidays.As for the other important ministers in the court, it is said that they will resume court affairs from the third day of junior high school, including King Xin, of course, it is really hard work!

This is Mu Yuan's first New Year since he arrived here. Thinking about it, it has only been a whole year since he woke up at the beginning of the year. So many things have happened. From an unknown chess player to a famous player in the world today, he even solved a lifelong event that was nowhere in sight in the previous life, which is really incredible.

Mu Yuan originally wanted to invite Ji Jin to spend New Year's Eve at Mu's residence, but unfortunately every year on this day, Ji Jin has to participate in the palace banquet in the palace like other royal relatives.The palace banquet can bring family members, but although Mu Yuan and Ji Jin are already engaged, they are not married yet.But the days to come are long, and from now on, they still have countless New Years.

During the day, the whole family worshiped the ancestors and gods together, and at night they ate a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner. The master and wife of the Mu family prepared lucky money for the three brothers and sisters.When Mu Yuan received it, it was a bit of a novelty. After he became an adult, he never received lucky money again. He was the one who gave the lucky money to the juniors. Naturally, he didn't forget to prepare it for his younger brother and younger sister this year.

The brother and sister happily accepted it, and Mu Yushang said playfully, "Will I be able to receive double copies next year?"

Mu Hong was puzzled: "Where did you get the double copy?"

Mu Yushang pursed her lips and smiled, "Of course it's Brother Ji's share."

Mu Yuan smiled, noncommittal.

Mu Hong became excited: "Hey, yes, yes, brother Ji is so generous, maybe he will give you a gold ingot."

Mu Qian was making a serious face on purpose, and said: "Is the pocket money given every month not enough? You look like a money fan."

Mu Hong secretly stuck out his tongue, and Mu Yushang giggled.

Madam Mu said, "Does the prince have to enter the palace every New Year's Eve? After you get married, will Yuan Er also enter the palace next year's New Year's Eve?"

Mu Yuan nodded: "It should be."

Mrs. Mu sighed softly: "Perhaps the palace banquet is not comfortable at home. I heard that the child has long since lost his parents. After all these years, it is not easy to abduct him alone."

Mu Yushang gently tugged at the corner of his mother's clothes: "Mother, Brother Ji is a prince, there is no one around him, how could he be lonely."

However, Mu Yuan softened his brows and eyes, and said softly: "What mother said is that Shenzhi has had a hard time these years, so please ask mother to cherish him more in the future."

Mrs. Mu smiled lovingly, and patted the back of Mu Yuan's hand: "That's what it should be. If you get married, the child will become your own family. Naturally, a family should cherish each other."

Madam Mu asked again: "There are so many royal relatives, so there should be no need to stay overnight for the palace banquet, right?"

Mu Yuan nodded: "You don't have to."

Mrs. Mu said: "Since that's the case, why don't you go to the palace gate and wait for him to bring him back? It's Chinese New Year, he returns from the bustling palace to the deserted palace alone, how can he bear it?" .”

In the end, it was her mother who was careful, Mu Yuan thought about Ji Jin's life every year in those years, and his heart ached a little.

Mu Yuan still smiled and said to his mother: "This year is different. Your Majesty said that Shenzhi will get married soon, and he will stay in the palace for a whole year this year."

Only then did Madam Mu nodded: "Your Majesty treats that child very well, and this is also his blessing."

Mu Qianzheng coughed lightly, and reminded: "How can we talk about Tianjia's affairs indiscriminately. If this is the case, don't say it again, especially don't say it in front of outsiders."

Mrs. Mu smiled shyly: "Isn't this, they are all from my own family, so why are you so outspoken. What did Yuan'er say?"

Mu Yuan immediately bowed his head and said, "What mother said is true." Looking up at Mu Qianzheng, he said again, "But what father said also makes sense."

"You child, when did you learn to be like this, like this..." Mu Qian pointed his finger, and couldn't help laughing, "You can talk like this."

Mu Yuan bowed and said, "How dare you. What you say in your mouth is what you think in your heart."

Mrs. Mu lightly thumped Master Mu, and said angrily, "Okay, don't make things difficult for the child."

Mu Qianzheng was a little innocent, and stared: Why was it difficult?

Madam's eyes slanted, and she immediately bowed her head to admit her mistake.

The three brothers and sisters couldn't help laughing softly, and the children whose parents love each other can always feel that kind of happiness.

Mu Yuan couldn't help but think of Ji Jin, they can do the same, from the love of youth to the love of each other, it may not be vigorous, but it will last forever.

Mu Yuan's thoughts wandered for a while, and when he came back again, he heard his father expressing his feelings: "Ji's family education is really good, and the aristocratic family is really extraordinary. It's no wonder that the kings of faith in the past are beyond the reach of others. Being able to compete with It is really an honor for such a family to become a relative."

It turned out that Mu Qian was talking about the details of his contact with the Ji family during this period, and he also used this to beat his two sons and daughters.As for Mu Yuan, he has the ability to marry the most outstanding person in the family, even if he is a father, what else can he say.

Mu Yuan couldn't help but think of Ji Jin's proud, helpless, and lonely expression when he mentioned the clan.It was a relief for Ji Jin to mention his clansmen again after they got engaged.Mu Yuan thought that from now on, Shen Zhi would no longer have to deliberately avoid his clansmen and deliberately isolate himself from the secular world.I hope that from now on, I can make up for his past loneliness with the warmth of the rest of my life.

I don't know when it started, the more joyful and happy the moment, the more I miss that person, and I hope he is by my side to share this feeling together.I have never felt lonely in a crowd before, probably because there is no one who makes me want to share everything.

While talking, Mu Qian suddenly said: "Shangshu Yu said a few days ago that His Majesty has selected the end of March as your wedding date, does Yuan'er know?"

Mu Yuan came back to his senses and nodded. The days must be good, so Shen Zhi wrote to him.They didn't see each other very much during this time, and they actually started to tease each other.Mu Yuan couldn't help laughing silently when he thought of the neatly arranged letterheads, the beautiful handwriting on the letterheads, and the words "see the words as if they are face to face".

Mu Qian said to himself: "Time is a bit tight, but you two are both men, so you don't need to prepare for marriage like ordinary girls, and it's not too late."

Mu Yuan said: "Let father worry about it."

Mu Qianzheng said with a smile: "I am worried about my son, Yu. Xi. He. Jia. Isn't it natural and right. It's just that the person who married you is special, and your mother can't interfere, so it makes her feel easier. However, Yu Chang's marriage has also been settled, although it was agreed that we will get married in two years, now it's time to get ready."

Lu Zijun finally asked someone to come to the door years ago, when Mu Qian saw his little daughter blushing and shy, he already knew the answer without asking, naturally there was no reason not to agree.

Mu Yushang really became shy, and said in disbelief, "Daddy, aren't you talking about elder brother? Why did you suddenly mention your daughter again?"

Mu Hong suddenly slapped his thigh, pointed to his nose and said, "So, now I'm the only one left in this family?"

Mu Qianzheng laughed and said: "That's not true! If Hong'er has someone he likes, he would have told Weifu earlier that Weifu will come to ask for marriage for you."

Mu Hong quickly waved his hand: "No, no, my son is not in a hurry. I still have to learn kung fu from Master Chen for a few more years, so I don't need to be distracted."

Mu Qian was patting him on the shoulder: "Having ambition, Hong'er is promising."

"Of course." Mu Hong doesn't refrain from boasting, and he is a little proud when he praises, "Why don't a man have a wife? Naturally, he must first establish a career and then start a family."

In the next few days, Mu Yuan will not be idle.Taking advantage of the New Year's Eve, colleagues who usually only meet in the waiting room have set up bureaus one after another, and they also need to move around in private. Mu Yuan, the newly promoted chief, is naturally among the first to be invited.The kindness was hard to give up, so Mu Yuan chose those who were close to him and went to a few rounds with his knowledge.

As for Ji Jin, needless to say, Mu Yuan also knows that he is very busy, and there are many things that need to be discussed at the beginning of the new year. It is said that since New Year's Eve, King Xin has never returned to the palace, and has been staying in the palace every day. in the palace.

During this period of time, only Chi Su communicated with each other to comfort lovesickness.

It wasn't until the Lantern Festival that the two finally had a chance to meet.
