Daming heir

Chapter 329

As the fireworks exploded in front of the palace, Ying Tiancheng boiled.

Starting from West Chang'an Street, to Zhongzheng Street and Shengping Bridge, the main road for welcoming relatives, countless people gathered on both sides of the road.

On both sides of the main road, the streets and alleys convey the festive atmosphere wave after wave like the tide.

It can be said that the whole city is moving, and all people celebrate together.

There were too many people on the road to welcome the bride, so much so that the welcome team, which had set off very early, finally entered the streets and alleys where the Xin Guogong Mansion and Xipinghou Mansion were located until noon.

A while ago, in order not to damage the dignity of the Xipinghou Mansion, before Muying arrived in Yingtian City, the palace finally bought a large house next to the Xinguo Mansion, demolished the courtyard walls and put them together. , it can be regarded as opening the door of the mansion.

Finally, there is no need to open a separate door in Xin Guo Gongfu.

When the welcoming team entered Gonghou's alley, Mu Sheng and Mu Ang led a group of third-generation young men from the Tang family of Xinguo's mansion to stop the entire street.

This is not in line with the usual steps of welcoming relatives.

There is no reason why the groom will be stopped before he reaches the door of the bride's house.

Ren Hengtai and Fang Xiaoru looked at each other, shook their red robes and stepped forward hand in hand.

"I'm very happy today. There are no strict rules in the palace, but you can't be so rude."

Mu Sheng kept his mouth shut, his eyes searching for something in the welcoming team.

Mu Ang opened the mouth and said: "The two are married, the boys are young and energetic, although they are used to messing around in the past, they also know the rules. I am not targeting His Highness today, but that there is someone in His Royal Highness's welcoming guests. It was said before that it was a stick that could fight us women's families alone."

Mu Ang didn't say anything later.

He has already found Zhu Shangbing, who is hiding in the wedding party and wearing a bulging bag.

This guy even knows how to put himself in a bastard shell.

Ren Hengtai and Fang Xiaoru looked at each other, full of helplessness, they smiled wryly.

This is a battle of spirits among the juniors. Today is a day of great joy, and the two of them can't really pretend to be elders or officials in the court.

Turning around and looking back, the two looked at the emperor's grandson riding on a black Western Region BMW carefully selected by the Imperial Horse Supervisor in the palace.

Zhu Yunxi was also very helpless. According to the rules, he didn't have to come to welcome his relatives like the folks.In the past dynasties, the clan marriages were always carried by the bride's family on their own initiative.All the ceremonies are held in the palace or in the palace.

Even the prince's father's big wedding was done according to such rules.

But when it came to me, it was probably the old man's whimsical idea that he wanted to be an example to the people and follow the procedures of the people when they get married.

Zhu Yunxi held the rein in his hand, looked sideways and lowered his head, but because there were too many people in the team, where could he find the shadow of that bastard Zhu Shangbing at once.

in the crowd.

Zhu Gaochi pulled Zhu Shangbing, who shrank his head because he was not well-informed, and moved his mouth: "I am waiting for you. Now that there are so many people, you don't want our family to make a joke."

Zhu Shangbing shook his head again and again: "I didn't do anything, it's brother Xie who got married, why should I still take the blame?"

Zhu Gaochi glanced at the brother, joined hands silently, lowered his eyelids, and said nothing.

Zhu Shangbing was very annoyed at the moment.

What do you have to do if you have to show off?

The two brothers of Renmu's family are reckless men who are capable of overturning war elephants. Can I, with thin arms and legs, resist being beaten?

It's fine to take the blame, but now it's obviously the sledgehammer.

Those two people are not human beings, but two sledgehammers!
Gritting his teeth, Zhu Shangbing's heart broke, and he rushed out of the crowd in order not to let himself regret it.

When the eyes suddenly opened up, only the human wall in front of him remained.

"what!"

Zhu Shangbing yelled, and rushed straight to where the two brothers Mu Sheng and Mu Ang were.

"In the south there is the eucalyptus tree, and Geli is tired of it."

"Let's be a gentleman, and be happy."

"In the south, there is the eucalyptus tree, and Geli is desolate."

"..."

"Happiness is only a gentleman, and happiness is fulfilled."

Xin Guogong's mansion is full of flowers and decorations everywhere.

In the boudoir with double-happiness window grilles, a gracefully made-up woman is holding a rhinoceros horn comb, combing the hair of Tang Queqing who is wearing a summer scarf today and has just had a meeting.

The boudoir was full of the female relatives and maids of Xin Guogong's mansion, and everyone's faces were filled with joyful smiles.

From today onwards, the Duke's mansion will change from the family of the noble generals of the Ming Dynasty, and will have the identity of a foreign relative.If everything goes well in the future, the government will be the uncle of the country and will be honored for several dynasties.

At this time, it was none other than her second aunt who was dressing Tang Queqing.As for why her mother didn't dress up for her, it was because Madam Tang was already sitting aside with a smile on her face, but her face was full of tears.

These are tears of joy, and no one will say anything.

Seeing that the second master's wife was about to comb the little lady's hair, the female family members chanted softly in unison.

"After combing to the end, the husband and wife raised their eyebrows."

"From the second comb to the end, the husband and wife fly together."

"Three combs combed to the end, tied together forever, never separated from the white head."

Mrs. Tang's Second Master put down her comb, looked at Tang Queqing who was wearing heavy makeup and hair in the mirror, and said with a smile on her face, "The makeup is done."

The two maids immediately fetched the phoenix crowns that had been prepared earlier from the table beside them.

Surrounded by pearls and emerald greens, the wall beams shine brightly.

Huang En Nine Dragons and Nine Phoenix Crowns are adorned with countless pearls, precious stones, and bright jade. The beam crowns are forged from gold and adorned with red stones and orbs.

Two maids carefully lifted the phoenix crown and placed it gently on Tang Queqing's head.

In an instant, the room is full of jewels, wrapped in gold and jade, beautiful and magnificent.

"The grandson is here!"

"The grandson is here to marry the young lady!"

Just at this time, there was a burst of cheers from the servants and maids outside the house.

At the same time, congratulations sounded from the whole house.

"One yang is moving at the beginning, the two surnames are harmonious, the celebration is more than three, with four beauties, and the fifth generation is prosperous and the phoenix is ​​divined."

"The six rites are completed, the seven sages are assembled, the eight notes are assembled, the nine harmony is sung, and the harmony is perfect."

In the Xiping Hou Mansion next to the Xin Guo Gong Mansion, a scene similar to this happened at the same time.

"Ouch... Ouch..."

"Hey Yo Yo Yo..."

"Oh oh oh..."

In front of the Duke's Mansion, Zhu Shangbing, who finally showed his invincible power by himself, broke through the encirclement and opened a way for Zhu Yunxi.

It's just that before he had a chance to show off, his whole body was in pain like a separation of flesh and blood, so Zhu Shangbing had to reach out and hold Zhu Gaochi tightly beside him, so that he could barely stand firm.

Zhu Shangbing looked resentfully at Mu Sheng, Mu Ang, and the boys from the Tang family who were standing on the steps.

These people are assholes!
Specially pick out thick skin and rough flesh, and hit places that will not cause accidents.

Zhu Shangbing felt that his butt was as thick as a thigh now than yesterday.

Avoiding acupuncture points and tendons and bones, there are pieces of flesh, as if countless villains are hammering and hammering at the same time.

"This matter, no general can't get through it!"

Zhu Shangbing was indignant, but he gasped again and again as soon as he opened his mouth, and it took him a while to finish his words, and then stared at Zhu Yunxi who was nervously waiting for the brides to come out like a watchman on a mountain top with extremely resentful eyes.

Zhu Gaochi snorted twice: "Do you think Brother Xi can hear what you are saying now?"

Zhu Shangbing opened his mouth and let out a long, silent sigh.

"He can't do anything tonight!"

Zhu Gaochi frowned, lowered his head and looked sideways at Zhu Shangbing whose whole face was tangled up in confusion, wondering where this guy was wrong again.

……

night.

Ying Tiancheng has already fallen into the carnival.

The common people inside and outside Yingtian City not only received a tael of silver from the palace, but also set up running water seats outside Xinguogong Mansion and Xipinghou Mansion.And because there were so many people who came to the banquet to congratulate, more and more banquets were set up. From noon to evening, a large block of streets and alleys were filled with banquets of the Duke's Mansion.

Later, without knowing why, Zhongshan Wuning Prince's Mansion also opened a banquet, saying that it was congratulations for the grandson's wedding and congratulations for Daming.

In the end, all the honored and noble families in the city put up banquets.

When night fell, the entire Yingtian City was soaked in the aroma of wine.

Today, the emperor's favor has a decree, and Jin Wu can't help it.

in the palace.

Perhaps Zhu Yuanzhang felt that his favorite grandson finally got married and drank with his ministers from noon to night.

The concubine Hui, who was in charge of the concubines in the palace, nobles in the imperial court, and the wives of officials, sent people out five or six times, but they were never able to stop the emperor who was already flushed from drinking.

As for the rightful owner, Zhu Yunxi, he has already reached the point where laser lights appear in front of his eyes.

"Brother Xi!"

"The Lord Ying's family has made a toast to you!"

Enduring the pain in his body, Zhu Shangbing supported Zhu Yunxi, who smelled of alcohol, with one hand, and waited in front of the boy of Ying Guogong Fu Youde's family.

Before Zhu Yunxi could open his mouth, Zhu Shangbing stuffed the jug in his other hand into Zhu Yunxi's hand.

"Ying Guogong?"

"Fu Gong... Gong Zhong Tiguo..."

"drink!"

Without Zhu Shangbing's hands on it, Zhu Yunxie was already holding the jug to stuff his mouth.

Zhu Gaochi, who was following behind, frowned, feeling that things were getting more and more wrong.

Why is the aroma of this wine getting stronger and stronger?

Clang.

The wine jug, which still contained more than half of the jug of wine, fell to the ground, and the aroma of the wine filled the hall instantly.

Finally, Zhu Yunxi couldn't bear it anymore and pulled Zhu Shangbing, and they both slumped on the ground.

"What did you feed him?"

Zhu Gaochi rushed up with a stride, led a group of cousins ​​to set up Zhu Yunxi, and then stared at Zhu Shangbing who was still calm and calm with his eyes wide open.

Zhu Shangbing shrugged his shoulders and curled his lips: "Don't worry, it's nothing serious, Brother Xi just passed out from too much alcohol."

When Zhu Gaochi heard this, he still didn't understand.

There is something wrong with this wine!
Glancing at the old man and uncle who were still surrounded by many courtiers, Zhu Gaochi gritted his teeth and stomped fiercely.

"You call me brother, why are you getting along tonight!"

Ren Hengtai and Fang Xiaoru, as today's big wedding envoys, did not participate in the toast to the emperor and prince.

The two of them looked at the prosperous wedding that they had organized with pride on their faces.

Only in a blink of an eye, he saw that the grandson was held up by a group of clan princes, and hurried over.

"What's going on here?"

Fang Xiaoru looked worriedly at Zhu Yunxi who lowered his head and muttered something.

Ren Hengtai glanced at the scene, the assortment of jugs on the ground, and then at the grandson's discolored chest that had been washed by the wine, and waved his hand with a sullen face: "Hurry up and send it back to the East Palace, Your Highness, and ask someone to prepare the hangover soup! "

Ren Hengtai no longer expects the grandson to complete all the procedures of the big wedding tonight, he only hopes that tomorrow, the grandson who was obviously drunk can complete the final etiquette.

……

night.

Thoroughly deep.

Although the carnival in Yingtian City was not over yet, the fireworks never ended in the night sky as if they were free of money.But the banquet in the palace slowly came to an end.

The Daming Palace, which is thrifty on weekdays, lit up all the candles and red lanterns on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival in the 27th year of Hongwu.

The already getting colder night wind blew in gusts, blowing away the excitement and the smell of wine in the palace.

The southeast corner of Fengtian Hall.

Zhu Yuanzhang, with his body whose smell of alcohol was blown away by the night wind, put his hands on his hips, silently staring at the distant Shenlie Mountain for a long time, then his eyes moved down silently, and landed in the direction of Ciqing Palace (East Palace).

Prince Zhu Biao jumped over the tables, chairs and stools in the Fengtian Hall, as well as countless drunken officials' servants and maids, and came behind the old man wearing an indigo mink fur cloak and a black cloak on his arm.

Zhu Biao raised the cloak with both hands, shook it in the air, and then carefully put it on the old man's shoulders.

"It's late at night, father should be careful not to catch the wind and see the cold."

"I'm so happy, I just feel a fire in my heart, even worse than when my family entered this stone city."

Zhu Yuanzhang kept his eyes on and spoke softly.

With a thoughtful face, Zhu Biao smiled slightly: "In the 27 years of the Guo Dynasty, even the children of the children have married."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked back at the boss in the family, stretched out his hand to grab the palm of the boss, pulled him to stand side by side with him, and then raised his head to look at Shenlie Mountain again.

"Your mother should be very happy today, she likes to see such lively scenes the most."

"When we were still in Haozhou, she always had to go to the banquet in person. Let's say, we are different now, and everyone feels uncomfortable when we go. She just doesn't listen, just say we Only when the family is gone can she be wholehearted, and she will be happy for several days after drinking a glass of wedding wine."

Zhu Biao had a look of nostalgia on his face, and said in a low voice: "My mother will definitely enjoy the blessings in Jiutian now."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and said seriously: "She is the one who deserves to be blessed! The children and grandchildren have grown up, and we are getting old. We won't be able to walk your way for you for long. Let's walk, walk again.

After a few more years, you will be the masters of this world.We have nothing to ask for in our life. At the beginning of the first day of junior high school, we just wanted to have a full stomach. Later, we wanted to feed the people of the world. Now we still want my family to be harmonious.

We are also thinking about one of our own things now. "

Zhu Biao was a little moved, turned his head to look at the old man, and said in a low voice, "Father, tell me."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the boss and smiled: "When we die, you will bury us and your mother together. Just go to the mountain every year and tell us how our family and Daming are doing. If we can have another bowl Pickled vegetable rice and a pot of shochu are the best."

Zhu Biao couldn't help feeling that his eyes were blurred, and his eye sockets were hot, but he kept nodding his head.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang laughed loudly, shaking his head and waving his hands, cursing himself: "I'm really a fool! Why are you talking about these things on such a happy day!"

"Our Great Ming Dynasty will only live more and more prosperously, more and more fiery!"

…………

"It's a little bit colder than usual this year."

"It's not even the cold month (November of the lunar calendar), and Yingtian Mansion has already had such a heavy snowfall."

In Yingtian City, the newly built back garden of the Emperor Taisun's Mansion next to the Jiuqu of Qingxi River.

The desulfurization and denitrification charcoal is burning in the greenhouse, which is steaming like a sunny day in spring.

Outside the greenhouse, three consecutive days of heavy snow had piled up a foot-thick white padded jacket on the roof, and many of the newly planted trees transplanted from various places had not yet taken root.

The servants of Taisun's Mansion are digging out more passages around the stone road with shovels, and some people are using hacksaws to cut off the crushed forest trees so that they can be easily transported out. The mansion arranged for people to come and replant them.

It's just that outside the warm room, the wind and snow are still there. No one knows what will happen tomorrow after cleaning up these things.

And now there are more than two months before the Mid-Autumn Festival wedding on August [-]th.

Tang Queqing, the new grandson concubine of the Ming Dynasty, had already put on a woman's temples, and was wearing a thick coat at the moment, looking worriedly at the busy palace people outside.

Tang Queqing continued: "I don't know how many houses collapsed and the people suffered from hunger and cold."

After chanting, Tang Queqing turned his head to look at Zhu Yunxi who was reading the recent memorials from the south of the Yangtze River in the greenhouse.

The grandson's side concubine Mu Caiyun sat kneeling aside, not only grinding ink, filling tea, and delivering memorials.

"Ying Tianfu's memorial has already been presented. Shangyuan, Jiangning, Liuhe, Jiangpu, Jurong, Lishui, Liyang, and Gaochun have a total of eight counties. Residential houses have collapsed inside and outside the city. Fortunately, there are not many casualties. Yingtianfu has already dispatched food and grass for disaster relief. The tax office is also adapting measures to local conditions and resettling the people nearby, and the post station is also sending more people to smooth the official roads, so that the disaster situation can be quelled before the end of the year."

Zhu Yunxi didn't raise his head, but just explained softly.

Tang Queqing pursed his lips and nodded.

Just as she was about to speak, she heard a snap.

I saw that Zhu Yunxi had already slapped a memorial on the table with a gloomy expression.

"Jintan County is incompetent!"

Zhu Yunxi's face was gloomy, and he looked at another greenhouse connected to the Nuan Pavilion: "Sun Cheng."

Sun Chengli, who had been waiting in another greenhouse, rushed over: "Your Highness."

"Send a message to the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Punishment, and Dali Temple. Jintan County is incapable of disaster relief. What should the six departments of the imperial court do?"

After speaking, Zhu Yunxi threw the memorial to Sun Cheng that he had urgently delivered to Beijing from Jintan County.

Sun Cheng picked up the memorial, his expression darkened: "This subordinate takes orders."

After finishing speaking, he turned and went back to the greenhouse next door, took out the red cloak that he carried with him, wrapped it around his body, and got into the wind and snow.

Tang Queqing frowned slightly, but Taisun didn't say how incompetent Jintan County is, so she didn't ask, but took a sweet orange from the side that had been roasted on the stove for a long time and sent it to Zhu Yunxi.

The oranges roasted over charcoal fire will remove all the sourness and fully stimulate the sweetness of the whole body, and most of them will not make people angry, leaving only the sweet, greasy and warm taste to wrap the taste buds.

But Zhu Yunxi, who ate four roasted oranges in a row, couldn't relax his frown at all.

In the past two years, Daming seems to be booming and flourishing.

Probably also blinded by this situation, Zhu Yunxi even forgot about Daming's greatest enemy.

Little Ice Age.

When will Jiangnan have a foot-thick snowfall?

He has never seen it!

"Yutian."

Another call came from the conservatory.

Yu Tian, ​​who was waiting next door, walked in quickly.

Now Yu Tian, ​​who has become the chief eunuch of the Taisun Mansion, has a more heroic look on his brows, and also a little more calm and firm.

When he arrived in front of the grandson, he bowed immediately: "Your Highness, the servant is here."

Without raising his head, Zhu Yunxi said in a deep voice, "Tell the six departments, three law departments, and five temple departments' department offices that we must decide on the local winter situation this year."

"Tell them, whether it's Da Jiuqing or Xiao Jiuqing."

"Anyone will see it!"
