I'm a big dick

Chapter 38

After roughly estimating the distance, Ma Chengfei shook his head slightly.It's too far away, even if he thinks he is superb at archery, he can only feel helpless.

At this moment, a cavalryman suddenly rushed out of the Jiannu formation, carrying a white flag, and came straight to the city.

This is not to surrender. Anyone with battle experience can tell at a glance that this is to deliver a letter.

Jiannu's messenger rushed to the city, planted the pole of the white flag on the ground, and shouted: "King Khan has a letter to Governor Wang."

As he spoke, he picked up his bow and set up an arrow, and shot towards the city.This is called the arrow book, and it is also a commonly used method.

After shooting the arrow book, the messenger stretched out his hand and pulled out the white flag stuck on the ground, and then he wanted to pull his horse back to the team.

Just when the messenger turned his horse's head and turned around, whoosh!Suddenly an arrow was shot from the city and hit the horse in the neck.

The war horse howled, knelt on its front legs, and fell down.

The Jiannu messenger was caught off guard, fell off his horse, rolled on the ground, turned around with his head covered, picked up the white flag, and ran towards his team.

Whoosh!Another arrow was shot quickly and nailed to the back of the Jiannu messenger.

Staggering forward, the Jiannu messenger was seriously injured, and he staggered forward, dripping with blood, leaving a thick red mark on the ground.

The Ming army on the city turned their heads in astonishment, and saw Jinyiwei's hundreds of horses Chengfei gnashing their teeth, drawing their bows and arrows again.

There was an uproar in the slave building team, cursing and roaring, expressing their anger at this despicable behavior that broke the rules.Two riders rushed out, obviously wanting to rescue their companions.

Where the bowstring sounds, the arrow is like a shooting star.This time the shot was really accurate, and it pierced the Jiannu messenger's neck from behind. Blood gushed out, and the corpse fell to the ground, kicking up a cloud of snow and dust.

"Good archery."

"Master Ma is an amazing arrow!"

The two Jin Yiwei cheered loudly, half from the heart, and half as a compliment.

Ma Chengfei blushed a little, originally thinking of killing the enemy with one arrow.But this bow is not very smooth, and it takes three arrows in a row before it can be regarded as mastered.

The Jiannu cavalry who rushed out to rescue their companions reined in their horses, pointed at the city and cursed loudly, but did not dare to continue to come forward to take away the corpse.

Xiong Tingbi shook his head, but was also speechless about this behavior that broke the rules.He stretched out his hand to take the arrow book handed by the soldiers, unfolded it and read it.

………………

In the ancient times of polygamy, even ordinary people, whoever had the financial conditions, had to marry a regular wife with a clear matchmaker and arrange it grandly.

As for a concubine, the word "marry" cannot even be used, it must be called "na".It probably means acceptance, which sounds very casual.

When the emperor gets married, he is married to the queen, the young one is said to be the lord of the harem, and the old one is said to be the mother of the country. The ceremony and ostentation are naturally beyond the description of the word grand.

It was quite grand, so grand that even Zhu Youxiao found it troublesome.

Accepting Cai, asking for names, Najib, enlisting, asking for a date, and welcoming in person, the six rituals are indispensable, and the emperor is no exception.

Even though the emperor didn't have to go in person, he still had to dress like a group of people, and then the officials of the Ministry of Rites rushed to hit the back of the head.

For example, accepting Cai and asking names, according to "normal rituals", it is necessary to display a guard of honor outside the gate of the Qing Dynasty, and set up women to be happy with the Majesty Dan in the Palace of the Qing Dynasty.

In the main hall of the Qing Palace, two tables were temporarily set up, covered with apricot-yellow satin tablecloths, with "Jie" placed on one table, and an imperial edict "Ask for Names" placed on the other table.The bride price that was going to be sent to the queen's house was also displayed in broad daylight.

Hey, ha, this is a new thing, and it may not be possible to catch up in a lifetime!
Even members of the royal family and court officials are rare to see the big wedding scene.The officials of the Ministry of Rites looked at it and bluffed, but it was also according to the records and regulations of the classics, and they had never practiced it at all.

The officials watching the ceremony listened to the instructions and looked around, just to watch the excitement.The emperor marries a daughter-in-law, we can watch the ceremony, and we can brag about it for a lifetime.

It's a pity that I don't have a mobile phone or anything, or I would just take pictures and post them on Moments.

It was almost the end of the wait, and the officials of the Qin Tianjian reported with a high air that the auspicious time had come!

Surrounded by ministers, guards, and eunuchs, Zhu Youxiao, who was dressed as five people and six people, made a grand appearance, stepped into the main hall of Qianqing Palace to the sound of music, and ascended to his seat.

Princes and ministers kowtowed to the ground, shouting long live.

The Xuanzhi official received the edict, stood on the east side of the Danbi, announced the edict loudly, and appointed two angels, the chief and the deputy, to go to the queen's house to ask for her name.In the sound of the music, the two angels honored the festival and the edict.After Licheng, Zhu Youxiao retired from the court.

Well, Zhu Youxiao also appeared on stage like a puppet, showing his face, without even saying a word, and there was nothing wrong with him.

Then the chief envoy and the deputy envoy asked about the imperial edict, the guard of honor and the drum band led the way, and the gift-giving officials followed behind the second envoy, starting from the Qianqing Palace, blowing and beating, and rushed to the Guozhang's mansion in a mighty manner.

The future head of state knelt at the gate to meet the angel, received the gift, and thanked the angel according to the decree.Then submit the "form" with the daughter's name, resume, birth date, etc. to the angel.

When the ceremony was over, a banquet was held in honor of the angels.Satisfied with wine and food, Angel led the team back to the Forbidden City.Enter the Meridian Gate, stop outside the Supreme Harmony Gate, and hand over the "section" and "watch" to the eunuch, the supervisor of ceremonies, and the task will be considered as a successful completion.

The eunuch, the supervisor of ceremonies, held the festival and watch again, and went to the Qianqing Palace to restore the "emperor's order".Zhu Youxiao then "declared" to the princes and ministers to accept and ask about the situation.

After tossing around like this, the last item of the six rituals, "welcome in person", is finally coming.

Tomorrow is the "welcome in person", and the folks are the bridegroom officials wearing red and hanging flowers, and go to pick up the bride.After receiving home, there is a lot of eating and drinking, and then it is the night of "Bridal Anniversary".

Naturally, the emperor didn't have to condescend to go, but there was also a set of very cumbersome etiquette procedures for bringing the empress to the Kunning Palace, which he had to personally experience and operate.

As the saying goes: People are happy and happy, and spirits are refreshing.But tomorrow will be a "personal welcome" and "bridal chamber flowers and candles", but the emperor himself is not very happy, on the contrary, he is a little anxious and worried.

Could it be that the emperor is in a hurry and can't even wait for this day?
After Zhang Yu'er combed the white lady's hair, she carefully glanced at the young emperor.Finding that the emperor was frowning slightly, he circled the sand table again.

Regardless of Zhu Youxiao's blessing, Zhang Yu'er didn't improve her status.

A palace lady is still a palace lady, and she can only be given a title if she is pregnant with a dragon seed. This is a customary rule in the palace.

If Xiong Tingbi can act according to his secret order, he will have a relatively high chance of keeping Guangning.

Zhu Youxiao touched his beardless chin, analyzed and judged again, and also encouraged and comforted himself.

Judging from the historical battles, if the Ming army defended the city with all its strength and there were no internal traitors to make trouble, it would still be very difficult for the Later Jin army to capture the strong fortress.

Ningyuan is an example, the city is strong and moats, and there are Hongyi cannons to help out; Jinzhou is not as strong as Ningyuan, and the later Jin army is still unable to attack, and it took a year of siege to force Zu Dashou to surrender.
