The Ascension of Ghosts

News related to the imperial palace always spread very quickly, but within three to five days, all the dignitaries in the imperial capital learned about Xie Rong's being granted the title of Marquis of An.

All of a sudden, a stone stirred up a thousand waves, and all the furniture pondered the meaning of it.In the Great Jin Dynasty, the title of Marquis with the character of Guo was extremely respected, surpassing the other Marquis titles. As the eldest son of Xie Yi, Marquis of Weinan, Xie Rong is now the Marquis of Anguo as soon as he was conferred, ranking above his father.What kind of virtue and ability is there for this Xie Rong to be so favored by the new emperor?

For a while, there were different opinions and mixed opinions, and even the old story that he was once declared by Master Zhaozhen to be the evil son of Rahu's evil star was also dug out.

Then there was a loyal minister Zhuang Jing who worshiped Dr. Zuo Guanglu worriedly: "Could it be that this scoundrel has even deceived His Majesty? No, I will write a memorial and report it to heaven, so don't let the new emperor be confused by traitors! "

Fortunately, this good minister has a virtuous and virtuous wife who knows the news. She also heard the news of the new title of Marquis An from the handkerchief. Tete told her husband. Seeing his worried expression, she got up and was about to go to the study, so she quickly grabbed his clothes. Xie Rong dissuaded him and said: "My husband doesn't know something..." Then he dismissed the servants who were serving around him, and told him about Xie Rong's life experience in a low voice.

Then he said with a smile: "Master, think about it carefully, Xie Rong was so well-behaved before, when Mrs. Marquis of Weinan gave birth to Xie Xuan, why did she suddenly become the caretaker of Luo Huxing?"

Zhuang Jing said movedly: "Master Zhaozhen has a high moral character, how could he assist Mrs. Hou in persecuting her youngest son, and not hesitate to deceive the people of the world..."

Zhuang Jing's wife, surnamed Tong, just shook her head when she heard the words, showing a playful look, and sighed with a smile: "Master Zhaozhen just approved a horoscope, as for whose horoscope it is, it has nothing to do with the master."

Zhuang Jing was startled, then closed his eyes and sighed: "Tiger poison doesn't eat its offspring, so the Marquis of Weinan just sit idly by and ignore it? If that's the case, then the Marquis of Anguo doesn't love his mother or his father, and now it's God who sees and guards When the clouds open and the moon shines, it is a joy to congratulate.”

Mrs. Tong smiled and said: "I heard that An Guohou's scenery is bright and bright, and he looks like a fairy. When he shows up outside, he will attract thousands of people to empty the alleys and throw fruit into the carts. He has the appearance of Pan Wei, and the talent of Cao Zuo. Wushuang, in her infancy, attracted countless hearts, and now she is so prosperous, I am afraid that the matchmaker who said that she is going to break through the threshold... Your husband!" She suddenly felt blessed, clapped her hands and said happily: "I think Qiniang is suitable, how about... Shall I go check on the wind?"

Zhuang Qiniang is seventeen this year, and the Jin dynasty is too early to marry because of the decline of the population. Usually, men at twenty and women at sixteen will marry, but the high-ranking gentry ignore this decree, and it will always take a few more years to get married. Willing to get married.

This is especially true for women. On the one hand, the parents are reluctant to leave their beloved daughter and leave home. On the other hand, due to the frequent changes in the situation in the court, they will marry the wrong relatives and stand in the wrong team if they are not careful, and the relatives will be ruined forever.

Therefore, we have to be cautious.

For example, this Zhuang Qiniang was carefully raised by Zhuang Jing's elder brother according to the pattern of the future empress, and she will be sent to the palace in the future.Fortunately, she was still young and was not in a hurry to enter the palace, but now she escaped a catastrophe and did not have to go back to hermit with the late emperor.

The Zhuang clan naturally cheered up and acted more cautiously.

Therefore, Zhuang Jing immediately sank his face and scolded: "Don't meddle in Qiniang's affairs. The Marquis of An Guo has only been sealed for a few days, and you want to post it. Why do you despise yourself so much? This new emperor, this How long will the upstart... let's wait and see."

Madam Tong shut her mouth aggrieved, but recalled that she had met Xie Rong's biological mother, Madam Bai, more than [-] years ago.

That Mrs. Bai's appearance, speech, upbringing and demeanor are all top choices. If she hadn't learned about her poor background from other people, Mrs. Tong would probably regard her as another Zhuang Qiniang.

That Mrs. Bai stood with Xie Yi, the beautiful young man who once fascinated half of the capital, and they really complemented each other like a couple of gods and immortals.Mrs. Tong was newly married at that time, and when she and her husband were deeply in love, she could see clearly. When the two looked at each other, there was so much affection in their eyes that it was so thick that it couldn't be hidden, as if even standing aside, they could The infection is somewhat joyful.

The offspring of such two people must be stunningly beautiful.

It's a pity that Xie Rong was stigmatized by a malevolent star, deprived of her position as the eldest son, lived in seclusion, and almost disappeared in Jianye. Mrs. Tong has been stingy for so many years.Occasionally there are rumors, but it is just that a young lady who met Xie Rong was immediately bewitched by the beauty and fascinated, but it was just rumors after all.

Only on the midsummer day of the 19th year of Jian'an, when Mrs. Tong returned home from her natal home, when the carriage passed through the Qihuan Bridge, she met an oncoming carriage.The Qihuan Bridge road is narrow, and she used a four-wheeled carriage made by Dr. Zuo Guanglu, which was extra wide and blocked the passage.The maid on the opposite side smiled and groaned, with a soft voice, she only said: "Madam Tong please first."

The carriage slowly turned to the wide place at the end of the bridge. Because the road was a bit narrow, it took a while for the groom to turn around. Mrs. Tong heard her servant whispering a few words to the servant on the opposite side. The maid announced that she was the Marquis of Weinan The eldest son's car.

Madam Tong couldn't help sitting up straight, but felt her hands and feet trembling slightly. When the carriages passed by, she lifted the curtains and took a look outside.

But only saw the bamboo curtain woven with green bamboo silk hanging on the opposite carriage, the light onion color was like a smear of green smoke on the Huai River in the early morning, and a figure was faintly revealed in the curtain.

This year Xie Rong just reached the crown, still wearing plain white clothes, never tied up her hair, and sitting in a relaxed posture.No matter how much she sees it, it still makes Madam Tong's heart pound like a deer. She just feels that even if there are thousands of beautiful things in the world, Dong Xian's rebirth, Wei Jie's rebirth, they can't compare to this elegant and glorious figure covered by the bamboo curtain.

After the carriage had gone far, Madam Tong stroked her throbbing chest, pressed the corners of her reddish eyes, and let out a long breath, feeling a little satisfied in her heart.Sure enough, the descendants of the two characters of Langyuan Xianpa should be so brilliant and inspiring.

If it were changed to later generations, Madam Tong's mood and behavior would be described as "chasing stars".

She was fascinated by this side of her mind, and she didn't come back to herself until Zhuang Jing called several times, she felt a little embarrassed, and explained: "I was just thinking, An Guohou, a character like Zhilan Yushu, I don't know if it will be cheaper in the end. family's daughter."

Zhuang Jing laughed coldly: "With that aunt here, he is afraid that no one else's daughter will be able to marry."

Naturally, Zhuang Jing didn't know, his words had already become a prophecy.

Because of the news of Marquis Feng An, the government and the opposition seem to be stable on the surface, but in private, there is an undercurrent.

The news of Xie Rong's title as Marquis naturally spread to Weinan Marquis Mansion. Because of Madam Hou's attitude towards the eldest son, the servants of the whole mansion did not dare to smile, but they were afraid of being spotted by outsiders, so they wanted to pretend to be happy. It's really hard to cry or laugh.

Madam Hou of Weinan broke two white jade tripods offering auspicious peaches, three green and white square bottles with thin bodies of pine, bamboo and plum, and a set of colorful pearls and jade Ruyi, and went to Wuyi Lane angrily.

She had just entered the gate of Wang's mansion, and she heard someone calling: "Sister-in-law Santang! I was planning to visit Weinanhou's mansion tomorrow, but it happened that I saw sister-in-law Santang today."

She turned her head, and saw a young man walking from the flower corridor with a smile on his face, with handsome eyebrows and picturesque eyes, a pink face with a smile, and peach blossom eyes full of romance.He was wearing a bright orange day lily-colored dark dress, cut in the most fashionable style in the capital, the cuffs of the dress were dyed rose purple, and embroidered with gorgeous flowers, birds, fish and insects with silver thread.Around the waist hangs the radiant purple jade moon huang, the wishful knot made of twisted gold and coral agate, and the tassels made of peacock feathers. The top card of the building will be full of flowers and ostentatiously.

The young man was tall and upright, with upright steps, his appearance was imposing but he showed a dandyism, and when he approached, he gave Mrs. Wang a respectful and deep salute, with a handsome face and a harmless smile. : "Little brother, congratulations to sister-in-law three, and congratulations to sister-in-law three."

This young man is Xie Yi's youngest brother Xie Xiao, the youngest son of Xie Liao, the prime minister who is in charge of the Xie family in Chenjun. He is only 25 years old this year, only four months older than Xie Rong.

Mrs. Xie, an old mussel who gave birth to a bead, even held this young son on the tip of her heart. She loved her like a treasure and obeyed everything. She used this little ancestor to become a devil in the world. , Destroy people's reputation, I don't know how many disasters and troubles they caused, they are stubborn and shameless, and their reputation spreads far and wide. They are called the Shuangsha of the capital. Everyone who hears about it shakes their heads and their teeth are cold. pain.

Mrs. Xie always persuaded that the youngest son was just a bit naughty, and he would be fine with starting a family, so when Xie Xiao was 20 years old, she decided to marry the noble daughter of the Yu family for him.Unexpectedly, Xie Xiao has never changed his sex after getting married, he still walks horses and dogs every day, bullies goodness, and neglects his wife every day.After half a year like this, the noble daughter of the Yu family was not easy to get along with, so she left a piece of paper and Li Shu and returned to Yu's house.

Even now, Prime Minister Xie is always embarrassing when he sees Yu Fengchang.

When he wanted to take family law to deal with this naughty boy, he was stopped by Mrs. Xie desperately.Prime Minister Xie was helpless, so he simply threw Xie Xiao to Xuanzhou to practice.

Naturally, the devil didn't restrain himself in Xuanzhou, disturbing the local people's life, and he just returned to Beijing before the Mid-Autumn Festival.Thinking that when the devil left Xuanzhou, the local people would run around telling each other and lighting firecrackers to celebrate.

Mrs. Wang also had a headache when she saw Xie Xiao, what's more, when everything went wrong today, she became more angry when she heard Xie Xiao's congratulations, she could only suppress the anger in her chest, brushed her sleeves, and said with a straight face: My uncle is here today, what can I do for you?"

Xie Xiao smiled again: "Sister-in-law Santang is joking, what can I do? Just come and drop by."

Wang Xieju is in Wuyi Lane, and he can walk from the end of the alley to the end of the alley without a car. The two families have always been good friends, and with Wang Zhen as the internal support, Xie Xiao is used to entering the house. Entering Xie's mansion is like visiting his own yard Generally at ease, I really just came to drop by today.

Mrs. Wang became more and more angry, but she heard Xie Xiao say: "My nephew in the lobby was born with a dragon and a phoenix when he was a child. He has an extraordinary appearance, and now he really has great achievements. It is worthy of being a tiger father without a dog. If you want to come to the third cousin I'm very happy, my younger brother will be the host another day, and I will invite my third cousin to have a drink and talk about the brotherhood."

Mrs. Wang secretly slandered that Xie Xiao was the youngest son of the first house, but Xie Yi was the eldest son of the second house. What's more, Xie Xiao was only born when Xie Yi was living in the countryside. There is a whole generation of age difference between the two, where is the brotherhood.When Xie Rong was young, this little ancestor was just as young and ignorant. How could he remember Xie Rong's appearance when he was young, but now he dares to speak up and pretend to be an elder.

Although she was slandering in her heart, she only curled the corners of her mouth slightly, and said with a light smile: "The little uncle has a heart, but now Lord Hou is concentrating on cultivating Taoism in Meishan, and the Sanqing Sanqing is on top, so I can't disturb Lord Hou casually." The purity of my heart..." The meaning behind the words is "Don't disturb my purity!"

However, Xie Xiao is used to carelessness, and never cared about the twists and turns in the conversation among the nobles. He just sighed: "The third cousin ran to Meishan again. Could it be that there are really beauties transformed from plum essence on Meishan? Go and see."

He was rambling on incoherently, Madam Wang had no choice but to interrupt: "Uncle Tang, I haven't greeted my mother yet."

Xie Xiao suddenly smiled and said: "Look at me, I'm so happy that I forgot, Mrs. Three makes atonement, Mrs. Three please."

Mrs. Wang hurriedly said goodbye and left, but just as soon as she took a step, she heard the devil grinning and said: "When will the third cousin bring the two nephews home? Daddy told me that the third cousin raised a Marquis of An Guo. You have done great service for me, Mrs. Xie, and you need to be rewarded as a good student!"

Madam Wang was so angry that she had a headache and chest tightness, and she almost vomited blood.

Seeing Mrs. Wang passing through the hanging flower gate and disappearing with a group of servants, the smile on Xie Xiao's face gradually faded. He stretched his arms and walked towards Wang Zhen's yard. Go, walk all the way and talk lazily: "I haven't seen you for many years, and I don't know what fun Xiao Rong's house has...Xiao Zhen, Xiao Zhen, get out of here!"

Xie Rong's mansion can't say that there is anything interesting now, but the uninteresting chores are piled up like a mountain.

Lu Sheng took a rest today, so Xie Rong didn't spare any energy. He worked hard all night and enjoyed it to his heart's content. The bed was soaked and water could be wrung out. Afterwards, he had to change the bedding and light some cold incense to disperse the fragrant smell in the room. .

如今陆升满身青紫，尽是欢爱留痕，四肢无力，酸软疼痛得好似被人重拳从头至尾揍过一遍。

He simply leaned lazily on Xie Rong's shoulders, the two were naked, their long hair was intertwined, it was indistinguishable from each other, they heard each other's breaths, their heartbeats matched each other, for a moment there was a feeling of tenderness, lingering between the two of them.

Xie Rongzheng inspected the famous posts one by one, all of which were delivered by people from all walks of life after being sealed, whether they were asking for a meeting or inviting them, they all wanted to get online with the upstart An Guohou.

Lu Sheng originally thought that with Xie Rong's defiant and arrogant personality, he should throw away all these famous postings.Unexpectedly, he read them one by one, pointed at Li Shilang for a while, and sneered: "This guy scolded me on the Shangsi Festival six years ago, saying that evil stars and evil sons go out in broad daylight and do harm to the people. Now they come to invite I went to his little grandson's full moon banquet, and I wasn't afraid that I would be a disaster for his descendants."

Pointing at Du Caolang again for a while: "This guy's youngest daughter is seduced by beauty, and has harassed me all day long. This guy doesn't blame himself for not being strict with his daughters and making people laugh, but blames me for seducing him." daughter."

For a moment, holding Han Pushe's name card again, Sen Leng said: "This guy once went to the late Emperor Shu, so we must take precautions and don't leave evil stars in the imperial capital. Even if he can't be killed, he will be exiled to the frontier fortress, and he will not be able to return home for life. "

Then he threw down the famous post, "It's just that it was entrusted by others. If Mrs. Wang can bribe it, I can also bribe it. This villain is very useful, so let's leave him alone."

Lu Sheng used to think that Xie Rong was fussy and would repay every detail, so it was too narrow-minded.After hearing about it, it became clearer that Xie Rong had a tormented childhood, and I don't know how many murders he had to avoid to get to where he is today. No wonder he has a surly temperament and is unreasonable.For a moment, there was distress and pity, so that the resentment accumulated in my heart also slightly faded.

Immediately the forehead became warm, but it was Xie Rong who read the name post, lowered her head and kissed him, and said softly, "But are you tired?"

Lu Sheng just shook his head, curled up his legs, and asked lazily: "After watching this for a long time, have you ever chosen which house to go to?"

Xie Rong kissed him tenderly, rubbing her fingertips against Wei Liang's shoulders, and said with a smile: "Guess."
