knock knock --

Kong Xiangyu was awakened by a knock on the door.

The matchmaker outside the door asked: "Young Master Kong, are you awake?"

Kong Xiangyu was a little dazed for a moment, and looked around in trouble.In a square inch, there is a table and two chairs with a golden figure of one month old.

He remembered that last night on the Ghost Festival, he married General Wei, who had been dead for a hundred years, as the ancestor of Wenchang County.

It is in the Marriage Temple at this moment.

The vigil was agreed, but he slept on his stomach on the altar for the whole night.And the tributes that were originally placed on the table fell to the ground in a mess.The two wedding candles were also crookedly swept under the table and broke in two.

"Master Kong?" The matchmaker asked again uncertainly when she heard the movement.

This time Kong Xiangyu agreed.

"Wake up, wake up. Wait a moment, don't come in."

He hastily cleaned up the mess on the table, and when he got up, his back was sore and he had cramps, probably because he didn't sleep well last night.I don't know what's going on at the buttocks, it hurts inexplicably, could it be that he was still sleepwalking when he had a sexual dream last night?

After tidying up the altar, he went to pick up the red hijab on the ground.However, when the hijab was lifted, there was an extra jade fan on the ground.The whole body is pure white, the texture is warm and moist, and the material used is actually high-quality suet white jade.

Opening the fan, the white jade was still bloodshot.It's just that it's been a long time, and the blood is soaked in the white jade.Generally, most of the jades with this shape are burial jades, and they only form this shape when they are placed in the hands of the dead.

He didn't remember that there was such a jade fan when he came in, could it be something from this temple?

"Master Kong, are you okay? We still have to go to General Wei's mansion." The matchmaker guessed that she was in a hurry, and there was a hint of impatience in her words.

"Okay." While speaking, he stuffed the jade fan into his bosom, tidied up his clothes and put on the red hijab.

The matchmaker unlocked and came in, and Kong Xiangyu handed over the red envelopes he had prepared in advance.

The matchmaker immediately changed her countenance, and said to him, shaking the handkerchief, "Young Master Kong is so polite, the county magistrate already gave it to me in the morning, but I didn't expect you to give me another one."

Kong Xiangyu responded with a smile, his father usually doesn't care about him, but he is quite good at dealing with this kind of facade.

The matchmaker said she was polite, but she took the red envelope neatly, and said cheerfully: "Let's go, the sedan chair is waiting at the door."

Kong Xiangyu picked up the tablet of General Wei on the table and was helped into the sedan chair.

He was as tall as a man, and he kowtowed his forehead when he entered the petite sedan chair.

The matchmaker immediately smiled and said: "The bride is bumping and bumping, and the family is happy." Then she shook her hand at the bearer, "Get up the sedan chair, don't miss the auspicious time."

This bridal sedan chair was indeed too small, and Kong Xiangyu could only occupy half of his buttocks while sitting.When the road was bumpy, he felt a dull pain in his back.

After the sedan chair was lifted, there was a burst of beating of gongs and drums, just like a scene of a bride getting married.

According to the custom, he had to go to the ancestral hall of the Wei family to pay homage, and only after receiving the gift from the descendants of the Wei family could he take off his head and go back.

Sacrifice is still different from ordinary marriage. Although the form is the same as marriage, in the end it is just a formality.After the ceremony was over, he was the same as the unmarried man.You can marry a wife and have children, or you can have three wives and four concubines.

In previous years, the people who offered sacrifices were all girls who had not left the court, and I don’t know which fortune teller said that if the girl who sacrificed was married to a dead person, she could not remarry a living person, otherwise it would bring misfortune to her husband’s family.

At first, the common people thought it was alarmist talk. Who would have thought that after the first girl to offer sacrifices got married, her husband would really die within two months.

It was at the bottom of the Jinbao Pond in Wenchang County that he died. When he was fished out, he was so rotten that only a pile of bones remained.

Since then, the girl offering sacrifices has been replaced by a man. It is said that even if they get married, they will marry a wife and do not need to be married, so there will be countless sacrifices.

The sedan chair walked around Wenchang County and stopped at the gate of Wei Mansion.Along the way, many people prayed to the sedan chair, and some even threw a copper plate or two at the sedan chair for good luck.

As a result, after the sedan chair landed, a lot of copper plates fell from the top of the sedan chair.

The person who came to kick the sedan chair door was a man in his 30s, who was said to be the current head of the Wei Mansion, Wei Changqing.In Wenchang County, he can be regarded as a well-known handsome man, who was favored by many girls back then.

Later, I married a county head as my wife, and I became more stable.

He was originally the envy of everyone, but who would have thought that after giving birth to a son, he would be born stupid, and even had to be fed by others.It is useless to ask famous doctors all over the place, so I have to hide it at home so that no one can see it.

The sedan chair curtain was lifted, and with the beating of gongs and drums, Kong Xiangyu was brought into the ancestral hall of Wei Mansion holding General Wei's tablet.

Wei Changqing lifted his red hijab, finally feeling a lot better.

There are many portraits of the ancestors of the Wei family in the ancestral hall. Among them, General Wei, who was married to him, is hung in the center of the ancestral hall.It should be for the convenience of sacrifice, so it was brought up separately.

The man in the portrait is dressed in white clothes, with curly black hair, two braids behind the ears, and a safety button hanging on the earlobe.

Sword eyebrows are thick and sharp, a pair of peach blossom eyes are sharp and sharp, and the tails of the eyes are slightly raised, showing evil charm.Under the high bridge of the nose, the corners of the mouth are slightly raised.

It can be said that Qiushui is the god and white jade is the bone. He is such a magnificent young general.

Suddenly it reminded him of the dream he had in the Marriage Temple last night, the man in the dream was also so beautiful.It's just that the fruit wine is too strong, and I can't remember clearly after drinking half of it.

I just remember that beautiful thin lips are like a budding flower, drinking a glass of fruit wine with a happy cup in my mouth.

The wine stains on the lips were like the dewdrops on the flowers in the morning, crystal clear.Dewdrops slid over the corners of the mouth, standing tremblingly on the edge of the lips, ready to drip at any time.

The thin lips are gently parted, like petals in bud, soft and alluring.Probe the stamens slightly, and taste the sweetness of the dew with him.

Kong Xiangyu quickly pulled back his thoughts, how could he compare the general in front of him with the beauty in his dream.

Coughing dryly, trying to calm down, thinking about it, I'm afraid I'll be hot all over again.

Wei Changqing dug out a genealogy book from the back of the ancestral hall, this is to add Kong Xiangyu's name to the family tree.

The matchmaker kept saying auspicious words, which made him a little bored.I don't know how many years this matchmaker has been. From last night to now, the auspicious words are not repeated, and she really has some skills.

After Wei Changqing finished writing his name, he handed him the genealogy.In terms of seniority, that General Wei was from the grandparents of Wei Changqing's great-grandfather.

The single name is Zezi, who died at the age of nineteen and became famous at a young age.It has been buried in the earth for 500 years. Calculated according to Yangshou, he was a few years younger than Kong Xiangyu when he died.

The Wei family has been loyal and good for generations, and each generation will produce a general, but most of them don't live long and die young on the battlefield.

In Wei Changqing's generation, he rejected the post of general and abandoned martial arts for literature.It's a pity that I don't have enough literary talents, and I didn't get in the list after several exams.

And Wei Ze is the second generation loyal general of the Wei family. He was the eldest son of the family. He followed his father to fight the enemy at the age of 15, and made great achievements in battle.

Originally, a family of generals like theirs should get married in the year of the dancing elephant, but this Wei Ze refused the marriage and only wanted to lead troops to fight.He was the only general in the Wei family who died in battle without marrying a wife and having children.

That's why there was such a thing as sacrificing ancestors and making yin relatives.

Kong Xiangyu closed the family tree and returned it to Wei Changqing.

After leaving the door of Wei's house, I realized that there was a thick fog on the street at some point, and the fog was so thick that I couldn't see the road clearly.

And the streets were not as lively as before. Those people who asked for good luck should have left, and the quietness was not normal.

The porter waiting in front of the sedan chair had a pale face and dull eyes, like a sick child who had been ill for a long time, and looked lifeless.

The fog was so thick that even the sedan chair in front of him was buried in it, how could it be a good way to walk.

The matchmaker on the side smiled and welcomed him into the sedan chair, and everything was as usual.It seemed that other than him, no one else felt that there was anything wrong.

He shook his head, anyway, it wasn't him who was carrying the sedan chair, so he simply opened the curtain of the sedan chair and got in.

"The sedan chair is up, the suona is ringing, and the bride returns home to ask for good luck. The sedan chair is up—"

The sedan chair got up smoothly, much more securely than when it came here before.It's just that the tune of the suona playing behind him has changed. It was originally a festive and cheerful tune, but now it seems a bit sad and sad. Those who don't know think it's someone who is going to mourn.

Kong Xiangyu felt uncomfortable, so he opened the car curtain on one side and looked, only to see that the suona player was followed by two rows of boys and girls.

His face was pale, with two pieces of blush painted on both sides of his cheeks, which looked like paper dolls in letters, which looked strange.

He squinted his eyes to take a closer look, but found that there were many people kneeling shadowily on both sides of the foggy street.It's just that the thick fog is too thick to see the face clearly.

He hurriedly put down the sedan chair curtain and retreated into the sedan chair, trying to calm down, but a fine layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Amidst the mournful mourning, it was accompanied by a crisp bell from time to time, which sounded like it was just outside the door of his sedan chair.If they are throwing some paper money together, it will be no different from going to a funeral.

Tremblingly, he opened a corner of the curtain.

Looking around, I saw two rows of officers and soldiers standing in the white mist.Wearing heavy armor, he couldn't hear the slightest sound when walking.

Among the officers and soldiers was a man riding a steed, with a stalwart, generous back, and extraordinary elegance.

The black BMW that was being ridden had shiny hair, like a famous horse of thousands of miles.There is a bell hanging from the horse's tail, and the sound of the bell comes from there.

Xu knew that Kong Xiangyu was peeping, so the man turned half of his face, his long eyelashes drooping slightly, and smiled at him.The safety buckle hanging on the earlobe swayed with the bumps of the horse. His black hair was like ink, and the hair on the ear temples was broken and slightly curled.

Surrounded by the white mist, she looks so different from ordinary people.

He hurriedly lowered the door curtain, his heart beating as fast as a drum.If it wasn't for the dizziness, the man riding the horse just now was Wei Ze who was married to him!

It was exactly the same as the Banished Immortal in that painting.

There was also the spring dream last night, in a trance, it seemed that there was such a safety button on the earlobe of that person.

He raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat off his forehead, he was afraid that the fruit wine he drank last night hadn't woken up yet, and he was in the middle of the day!

There are quite a few men who sacrificed before, but I have never heard of anyone who has encountered such a thing. Could it be that his horoscope is really too light and easy to attract evil spirits?

It shouldn't be, it's his second brother who is light.His father's good wife specially went to Baoshan Temple to invite eminent monks to perform a ritual, and exchanged his frail second brother with his horoscope.

I thought it was just a legal matter to deceive people, is it true?
