The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 629 The Season of Harvesting Love

Although the twelfth lunar month in Beihai is relatively cold, people have already gotten used to it.

A large number of foreigners who came here from Daedeok brought their living habits and culture to Beihai, and continued to influence the original aborigines.

The most obvious one is the annual Spring Festival.

Entering the twelfth lunar month, the atmosphere of the New Year is getting stronger day by day.

People calculated the money in their hands and found that it was much more than last year.Compared to when I was in Daedeok before, it seems to be more.

This year, the Beihai Autonomous Army made an expedition to Dade and helped Dade put down the rebellion, which made the people of Beihai feel very proud.

In this proud atmosphere, good news came out again.

The imperial court of Beihai was established, and Beihai was officially established as a country.

Although the name is different from Dade, people are still used to call Jia Min the emperor, and the Government Affairs Council as the imperial court.

Of course, there are still many differences between Beihai and Dade.

First of all, Chief Min became the king, but Chief Min's father, who always helped repair rivers and build houses in various places, never wanted to pay Lord Jia Zheng, and instead of becoming the Supreme Emperor, he became a prince.

His uncle, Jia She, who sometimes went to Pingyuan Tower to find singing girls, also became a prince.

The king's three younger sisters, Jia Yingchun, Jia Tanchun and Jia Xichun became the eldest princess.

The king's wives, instead of becoming princesses, are called madams.Among them, Miss Xue, who was in charge of the tobacco business, became the first lady.

Jia Lian, the former commander of the Fourth Brigade of the Autonomous Army, became a duke.

Jia Qiang, Jia Yun, Jia Qin, Jia Ping, and Qin Zhong became counts.

Feng Ziying, Chen Yejun, Wei Ruolan, Yang Lin, Cong Xiucai, Fang Xiucai, Wei Song, Zach.Bogda and others became dukes.

There are also some people who have become earls, viscounts, barons, etc.

After the election, Feng Ziying became the prime minister of the State Council.People lined up according to the rules of the previous great virtues, and felt that this prime minister was similar to the previous prime ministers.

Yang Lin, the original canon historian, became the Secretary-General of the Government Affairs Council, that is, the chief steward of the Council of Government Affairs.

Chen Yejun became the Minister of Defense of Beihai, Wei Ruolan became the commander of the Beihai Defense Force, Feng Zijing was appointed as the commander of the Beihai Defense Force Navy, Chen Yeqing was appointed as the commander of the Beihai Southern Theater, and Jia Lian was appointed as the Commander of the Northern Theater.

Jiao Li served as Minister of Armaments, Liu Cheng served as Director of Weapons, and Dai Zhi served as Director of Military Technology.

Mr. Sevante is the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Sun Yuanfei is the Minister of Economy, Lameihua Xie Baochai is the Minister of Trade, Lin Dajiang is the Superintendent of Police, Cong Xiucai is the Minister of Education, Wei Song is the Dean of Lifan Academy, Toke is the Dean of Arbitrators, Bogda Served as the head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate....

At the same time that the government agencies were established, the entire territory of Beihai was divided into administrative regions, which were divided into [-] provinces in total.

Some officers of the Beihai Defense Force, some original chiefs of the Beihai natives, have become high-ranking officials.Even Ni Er became a senior official in Nijiabao Province.

After the establishment of the royal family, the Government Council, and the National Defense Forces, and the completion of administrative divisions, officials at all levels began to perform their duties.

However, the Chinese New Year is approaching, and they seem to have little time to do business, but are busy going to various houses to attend weddings and drink wedding wine every day.

Throughout the twelfth lunar month, Beihai Pingyuan City was busy setting off firecrackers, welcoming relatives, and holding wedding banquets almost every day.

The first marriage was the wedding ceremony where King Jia Min married the first lady Xue Baochai and his wife Miaoyu.

The king's wedding is naturally a big event, and the entire Pingyuan City is boiling.

Xu Mingtao, general Bukui of Dade, and Shaq, Wadagas, Xi Mairui, Temir, Luo Muge, and Kader, the leaders of the Wendula grassland, all came.

Master Juoneng, Master Baoyu and Master Tana of Dade County also came from Luoyan Lake Shuangfeng Temple in North Wendu.

Officials at all levels in Beihai and soldiers of the Laofu Corps will naturally not be left behind.

Due to too many guests, various restaurants in the Palace, Pingyuan Building, and Pingyuan City held a banquet together to entertain all guests.

After the king's wedding, it was the wedding of Prime Minister Feng Ziying and Princess Jia Tanchun, and then the wedding of Wei Ruolan, Commander of the National Defense Forces, and Shi Xiangyun.

After that, the Jinling Zhen family entrusted the Jia family to hold the engagement ceremony between Chen Yejun and the second miss of the Zhen family with the Defense Minister Chen Yejun's family, and then the engagement ceremony between Wei Ruoshui and Jia Xichun.

From then on came a series of dazzling weddings.

There are Liu Cheng and Yuanyang, Liu Xianglian and You Sanjie, Jiang Yuhan and Xiren, Jia Qin and Rose Xie Baoli, Xue Pan and Xiangling.

When the Beihai Volunteer Army went out to fight, King Jia Min promised the soldiers that if they won the battle in the future, if they had no wives, they could bring back a wives from Dade.

The soldiers were really good, and they lived up to the expectations of their Chief Min. When they came back this time, 700 of them brought back women. raise children.

The weddings of these people are also family after family.

This time, Jia Lian brought Second Sister You back. Seeing that every household was engaged in marriage, at Second Sister You's urging, she begged Wang Xifeng for three days.

Now that Jia Lian has a high position and authority, he is not afraid of Wang Xifeng plotting against Second Sister You.

It can be regarded as fishing in troubled waters, but also joined in the fun.

The elders of Wei's family entrusted a matchmaker to Xue's family to propose marriage between Wei Ruoyu and Ying'er. Xue's family redeemed Ying'er's body and promised to give Ying'er another dowry, and the marriage was finalized.

At the beginning, the old lady went to various houses to attend the wedding, but because there were too many weddings, the old lady couldn't run at all. After all, she was old and her energy was not as good as that of young people.

Because she is the king's grandmother, she is highly respected and has a high level of seniority, so everyone comes to invite anyone who gets married, and sometimes there are several families in a day.

In the end, I had no choice but to adopt a compromise method. The ancestors would not go to any house, just stay in the palace. etiquette.

These days, the ancestors gave out a lot of red envelopes, and the amber they gave screamed, even the ancestors felt a little bit distressed about the money.

However, I have to give, and if I give less, I will lose my position, so I can only bite the bullet and stand up.

However, the families are not confused, and they don't come empty-handed, and they have to bring some things like wine, vegetables and nuts by the way.

For a long time, there was no need to start a gang in the palace.

In the end it was Wang Xifeng who was clever, and finally checked with Mrs. Wang, converted some of the food expenses saved in the palace, and subsidized it to the ancestors.

The old ancestor was naturally happy, and praised Feng Ge'er for being considerate.

Jia Min, Feng Ziying and others have also been soaking in wine these days, sometimes going to several houses a day to accompany the ceremony and drink wedding wine.

If you drink too much, you will be a little confused. Sometimes you have already finished your drink at someone else's house, but you forget it and go back to drink again. There are many jokes like this.

This kind of thing was exposed by Daiyu's "Beihai Weekly", so that the common people in Beihai knew about it.

Although Jia Min and Feng Ziying's names were not mentioned directly, in the report of Concubine Xiaoxiang, the titles of "a certain king" and "a certain prime minister" were used.

There is only one king and one prime minister in Beihai, and everyone knows that it refers to Jia Min and Feng Ziying.

Baochai had no choice but to tell Jia Min's soldiers to remember which house they went to, and to drink once, and not to go a second time.

It wasn't until the 29th of the twelfth lunar month that the wedding drama was over.

Today, Jia Min had the time to come to the old ancestor and Mrs. Wang to discuss Li Wan's affairs.

Qiu Liang also came to Beihai this time. His original partner passed away two years ago. Because he had partnered with Li Wan in the orange business, he had a good impression of Li Wan, so he wanted to continue.

Jia Min felt that it was hard for Li Wan to be alone, and now that Jia Lan was grown up, he decided to make this happen.Baochai asked Li Wan quietly, and Li Wan agreed.

When Jia Min told the whole story, the ancestor and Mrs. Wang fell silent.

After a while, the old ancestor sighed.

"Brother Zhu has been away for so many years, and Brother Zhu's daughter-in-law has been guarding her all the time. It's really hard. It's so pitiful. She's worthy of our family."

"Now that she is still young, there is no need to just guard her so hard. Qiu Liang is not bad, and he promised not to marry the younger one. It will be good for Brother Zhu's daughter-in-law, so let them be fulfilled."

"Fourth Brother Min did a great job in this matter. His merits are immeasurable. Mother, you will help my sister-in-law."

Although Baoyu is a little godly now, he is not confused.

"You all think so, so naturally I won't stop it. I just want to say one thing, Brother Lang can't change his surname, he has to be surnamed Jia."

"Mother, Qiu Liang agreed to this one, don't worry."

"Since that's the case, let's celebrate the new year and choose a day to get things done."

Mrs. Wang also readily agreed.

"Oh, it's so busy now, that marriage, this marriage, only Yingchun is missing. Her old man doesn't know how to worry."

The old lady sighed.

"Mother, who said I'm not in a hurry?"

Jia Amnesty came in.

"Mother, don't I just announce the good news to you? The girl Ying is about to get married."

"Oh? Really, don't you want to lie to me?"

The old lady smiled immediately.

"Wei Song entrusted a matchmaker, saying that he has a crush on Yingchun and is coming to propose marriage to his son."

"Wei Song and his family are pretty good people, but I don't know how his boy is?"

"Old ancestor, that person is not bad, I think it will work."

Jia Min knew Wei Song's son quite well, and felt that Yingchun would be more suitable.

"If you think it's okay, you can ask Ying girl first, if she is willing, then make a decision, but you are not allowed to force her."

Seeing that things were almost done here, Jia Min went to the Government Affairs Council near the pier.

Feng Ziying, Chen Yejun, Wei Ruolan, Yang Lin, Cong Xiucai, Fang Xiucai, Saivante, Sun Yuanfei, Lameihua and others were all there.

"Lameihua, so many people are getting married, but you are the only one who hasn't heard anything yet. Who do you fancy, I'll go and propose marriage for you."

Jia Min was indeed a little anxious for Lameihua.

"Officer Min, I'm not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry? Anyway, whoever I like, I won't like you."

"Look, she still doesn't like me, what's wrong with me?"

Jia Min felt a little wronged.

Everyone just laughed.

While talking, Yinger came.

"Fourth Master, the first lady asked me to ask you where to sleep tonight?"

Before Jia Min could speak, the maids of Miaoyu, Tamara, Ping'er, Qingwen, and Shen Bingyi also came and asked Jia Min where to sleep tonight.

"This matter is a family matter. Let's talk about it when we go back. Let's talk about it when we go back. I'm leaving. You can talk."

Jia Min left as if fleeing.

"Look at how pitiful Chief Min is."

Lameihua looked at the crowd and said leisurely.

Everyone nodded in agreement.
