[Comprehensive] The days when I pretended to be a meow in the Forbidden City

"Worship the heavens and the earth-"

The sun was setting and the white candle was flickering faintly. One person held a tablet, facing the sky outside the house, slowly knelt down and worshiped.

"Second worship high hall-"

The man stood up, held the memorial tablet and knelt down to the woman in plain clothes, followed the singing of the praisers, and bowed down.

"Husband and wife salute—"

The man put the memorial tablet in front of the altar, flipped up his robe, and prostrated himself firmly.

"Licheng-"

The woman finally couldn't hold it back, choked up, and saw the man stand up and called her "Mom."

"...Hey." She suppressed her grief, took out the red envelope, and stuffed it into his hand as a change of payment.

There are four spiritual tablets on the altar.

The latest one is engraved with the title of Xi Lian, the first husband Xia Jun An Ran.

He stepped aside slowly, and a young man also in plain clothes came in and knelt down in front of the spirit tablet.

This is a happy event, but it is a yin marriage.

The guests who come and go are all dressed in plain clothes, and they come to worship one after another after the young man has finished worshiping.

Mother Xia was in a trance, looking at the stream of people coming to pay their respects, and then at the young man with a solemn expression. She was sitting in the high hall seat, attending her child's wedding banquet, but she couldn't pull out a smile.

What happened this month, she didn't dare to think about it at all, she could feel the pain that tore her heart apart as soon as she thought about it.

Her son, gone.

Her An Ran will never come back.

The royal family came to reward and comfort, the magistrate of Jiangsu came to express condolences, and the county magistrate of Suzhou also came to express condolences.

The most powerful writer in this dynasty wrote a memorial essay for his son.

The son's friends are older than the other, and they all come to worship in plain clothes.

The emperor gave her a posthumous title and made an exception to allow her son to enter the Martyr's Shrine and enjoy the sacrifice for all ages.

He also gave her orders.

But she doesn't want it, she only knows that her son died in a place she doesn't know, and will never come back.

Not even a corpse.

There was only one official robe, which was said to be the official uniform her son took off before the battle, was sent back and buried beside her husband.

What's the use for her to want these, what's the use...

But she can't cry, because her son is a hero, countless scholars write articles for her son, countless soldiers ask for conscripts for her son, and the Wanmin Umbrella is sacrificed in front of her son's spiritual throne.

She can't cry.

She is the mother of a hero, she can only say that my son should be like this, as an official, he should protect the peace.

She, can't cry.

An Ran, my son, mom will hold on, mom will hold on.

My son protects the common people, and I will protect my son.

Fortunately, fortunately, my son still has a caring person.

Shen Qi, the person who became attached to his son, came from southern Fujian to protect the spirit, and rang the spirit bell for her son along the way, leading her home.

When I came to find her, the wound on her body had been cracked, blood was leaking, her face was tired, her eyes were black and blue, and she was in a mess.

He said that he had already formed a contract with Xia Anran, but he begged her to sign the marriage certificate before the ceremony was completed.

There is no marriage ceremony for a man in this dynasty, so he said that he was willing to join Xia's family and marry An Ran with his wife's ceremony. He only asked for the same acupuncture point after death.

He said that this was an appointment made by An Ran with him.

How could Mother Xia refuse him.

Shen Qi asked to submit an imperial edict today, acknowledging that their marriage certificate is valid.

After today's evening ceremony, they are the only legal couple in this dynasty.

Since then, the same quilt and the same hole.

The reason why he signed this marriage contract today is because he owes something.

The danger of Yongchun could have been resolved early, but because of the civil uprising in Wangyurou Township of Nan'an County, the elite Fujian army was mobilized to suppress the chaos in Nan'an first. When they received the message from Yongchun, it was too late to turn back.

Even though he was running fast in every possible way, in the end he only saw broken walls and ruins, and corpses strewn all over the field.

The danger of Yongchun was solved by Yongchun people themselves.

There were two shocking explosions in Yongchun City, and Xia Duoduo flew to ask for help, which made the villagers in the village unconscious. When they rushed over, they saw Yongchun City collapsed. The villagers thought their wives and children were dead. Shout out to join the fray.

The Japanese were frightened by the desperate attack of the Yongchun people, and they encountered a new force, and they were all beheaded in the end.

Only then did the villagers know that there was nothing serious about their wife and children fleeing under the arrangement of Xia County Magistrate.

"Then, what about County Magistrate Xia?"

Yes, magistrate Xia.

The county magistrate is gone.

Their little Xia magistrate, such a good Xia magistrate, no longer exists.

When Shen Qi arrived in a hurry, he saw An Ran's corpse pieced together by Yongchun people.

He got off his horse, barely daring to recognize it.

He failed to shield him.

He thought that if he invited him to be stationed in Nantai, he would be able to protect him even if there was Japanese insurrection.

He thought that his death would be two years away.

He thought he would be ahead of him.

He failed to protect his safety.

Shen Qi stood on the wife's seat with a calm expression.

If he failed to fulfill his vow, then the covenant with An Ran must not be broken.

So he invited Shang to sign the marriage certificate, and he gave up his status as the son of Shen's eldest son to join Xia's family.

He will honor Xia's mother for him, take good care of Xia Duoduo, and finally be buried with him.

They have bowed their heads and signed the marriage certificate. Even if Xia Anran takes the first step, the red thread has already been drawn. They will be inseparable in this life, the next life, and life after life.

Xia Anran's friends came to express their condolences.

They put incense on the coffin, greeted Xia's mother Shen Qi, then retreated first, and sat in the garden of Xia Anran's house.

Several people looked at each other silently.

It was the three of them again, when they sat like this last time, they were still in the capital waiting for Xia Anran and Chunwei to produce results.

At that time, the weather was cold, just because of a hot pot and some small dishes, it was lively and my heart was hot.

I don't want to think that a year later, when they sit together again, there is only one person missing.

Although the weather is hot, my heart is cold.

After a long silence, Baoyu suddenly said, "I want to be an official."

Feng Yuan and Xue Pan Qiqi looked at him, and saw the youngest young man among them with firm eyebrows, "I want to be an official, and I want to go to Yongchun. If brother Xia failed to do it, I will do it for him."

"Baoyu!" After Xue Pan was stunned, he suddenly laughed out loud, tears streaming down his face while smiling, he wiped away the two lines of tears that inadvertently slipped down, and boasted, "I didn't expect that the most beautiful girl among us You are the one who is brave."

"I didn't want to step into that field before." He choked up again as he spoke, Xue Pan took a deep breath to suppress the thousands of thoughts in his heart, and patted the table "Okay, since you want to Go, brother, I will take the lead for you."

"Agreed?"

"It's hard to chase a horse."

"Since that's the case, it's better to add me two."

It was Feng Ziying and Liu Xianglian who entered the backyard one after another. They were also dressed in plain clothes, obviously they had just paid condolences.

Xue Pan showed some surprised expressions. The two had never been on good terms, but they actually walked together one day?

Seeing his expression, the two of them stood beside the three of them without explaining, Liu Xianglian said, "Today I want to build a naval army, and I will recruit troops from each army. I have signed up."

"Shen Tongzhi has experience in naval warfare, and he will be responsible for training the navy." Feng Ziying said, "I was also promoted along with him."

"We will go to southern Fujian with Shen Tongzhi next month, so we should arrive before you," Liu Xianglian said with a smile, "Baoyu, you should move faster. Don't make us wait too long."

"Brother Baoyu is going to end too?" A young man walked in from the door, Lin Jue bowed to everyone, after everyone met each other, Lin Jue continued, "I'm going to end this year too."

"Since that's the case, it's better to encourage each other." Jia Baoyu said to his cousin with a smile.

"Together." Lin Jue agreed.

In the next month, the decree will be issued today to build sea-going ships and train the navy.

Shen Qi is appointed as the commander and will take office immediately.

I heard that all the officials in the court were not optimistic about the navy, and thought that the Japanese pirates were nothing more than mosses attached to the skin, and now they have a militaristic attitude, so when they were dispatched to join the army, they all refused. On the contrary, a Hanlin official surnamed Xu took the initiative to sign up and asked Come join the army.

Zhu Tanhua also signed up like him, but Xu Hanlin persuaded the Shangguan to choose him on the grounds that Zhu Tanhua was engaged and it was inconvenient to travel far away. Qian Liang, you come and go with Xu Canjun.

After the navy returned with a big victory, the two stood on the same front because of the war indemnity, and they have turned enemies into friends since then.

In the next few years, Lin Jue won the number one prize, and Jia Baoyu won the Tanhua prize. The two went to the Imperial Academy and then went to Fujian successively. After that, due to the rise of the navy in this dynasty, Jinshang gradually tried to open the sea. Trade, Fujian is more prosperous than ever.

Wherever Xue's caravan traveled, Sanhe soil roads were paved. Nantai Port took advantage of its geographical advantages to become a trade center for land and sea transportation, which benefited surrounding counties.

Xu Hanlin...ah, no, Xu Canjun has been fighting in the front line of the Fujian Southern Navy for a long time, and he is still unmarried after his thirties. After Zhu Tanhua gave birth to two children, he was persuaded by his friends to get married In fact, the hair was blown up in the letters from the baby, and he began to focus on the people around him.

However, in the army he was in, there were all bachelors, and the only married person was Shen Qi, so there was no reference at all.

Xu Canjun was in a bad mood, so he took a leave of absence and wandered the streets.

He was holding some snacks in his hand, and when he stuffed them into his mouth, he happened to see a graceful woman stepping down from the sedan chair. He hastily turned his back to avoid the girl's appearance, but that glimpse remained in his heart.

The girl didn't make up, she was very clean, but her lips were red and her eyebrows were green, her face was like a silver plate, and her apricot-like eyes glanced at him as if aware of it, just this one glance made Xu Canjun's heart soar like a spring on a dead tree. It was full of flowers.

Later, after he was severely beaten by Xue Pan, he married Xue Baochai who had just been released from the palace and came to find his brother to relax in order to avoid his mother's nagging.

After marriage, the husband and wife followed each other, and Baochai was good at managing the family. She had been in the palace for many years. Although she served the princess, she also studied along with her.

She also knows some economic principles, and can often give some suggestions when Xu Canjun is in distress. Xu Canjun often finds his way out of his wits, and the relationship between husband and wife is extremely harmonious.

They were both quite old when they got married, but Baochai gave birth to a pair of twins in the second year, Xu Canjun immediately felt elated, and felt that this is called efficiency, which is much better than Zhu Tanhua's five-year hug. up.

When the twins grew up, neither of them inherited their parents' literary talents, but because they grew up in the military camp, they were better at wielding knives and guns.

Their childhood training partner was Xia Duoduo, and after a long time, they fell into Shen Qi's eyes. Shen Qi took the two of them as apprentices, taught them carefully, and trained two Confucian generals for the Southern Fujian Navy.

Relying on the tacit understanding of the twins, they are each other's arms when commanding battles, and often beat the enemy by surprise.

After 14 years, the problem of Japanese pirates was finally solved.

At this time, the former emperor has passed away, and the current government is governed by the Qing Dynasty. Ten years ago, the Yellow River has been rectified.

Su Qiming has been promoted all the way, and he has been worshiped as a first-rank official. He has lived up to his wish in the past. He has never engaged in dog hunting or formed a party for personal gain in his life, and he has not become the person he hates until the end of his life.

Later, when he was old, he consciously made way for the younger generation, and made a statement, bluntly saying that he would change the age for officials to serve.

He spoke earnestly in the form, and talked about his many changes since his sixtieth year. He was conservative, afraid of change, and stagnant in thinking. He said bluntly that if all officials in the court were like this, it would not be beneficial to the dynasty.

Nowadays, the age of becoming an official in the dynasty is very rare. However, most officials change their age in order to protect their positions. This is a big bad thing.

As soon as this form was put on the table, the entire court was shocked, and after more than a year of debate, the emperor made a final decision, and the age of official appointment was brought forward to 65 years old.And until the death of the official, the imperial court will issue a pension every year to ensure the retirement of the official.

Such an astonishing act caused the court to be in turmoil for nearly three years, and then successively, with the new official evaluation criteria of the Ministry of Officials, young people took the lead one after another, leading the road to revival of the dynasty.

And this generation, most of them were Jinshi in Chunwei in the Jiashu year.

Shen Qi, courtesy name Hongrui, posthumous title Zhongwu.

It is impossible to test why he made a fortune. This person is quite legendary. He built a navy and swept the oceans, but he never married. After his death, he entered other people's ancestral graves. The big goose is good.

In the wild history, Zhongwu Hou is very good at handicrafts, especially the clay figurines. The rabbits he made are even more lifelike. He was asked to go to Shandong for military training, but he also refused, and now Shangqi issued several imperial edicts, but he refused.

After begging for bones, he lived in Yongchun for a long time. When he was 65 years old, he suddenly moved back to Xia's house in Gusu, and has settled down since then.

Until the spring of the following year, he died at home without any illness.

Lord Zhongwu has no sons, only one younger brother, who guarded his spirit with his two apprentices, and was buried in the Xia family's ancestral grave according to his wishes during his lifetime.

On the day of seeing off the spirit, there were road sacrifices all over Gusu City to see him off, but the funeral objects brought by Lord Wu Zhong were only two camphor wooden boxes, and the queue was extremely short.On the contrary, there is a huge and mighty team to see him off.

For a while, Gusu City was almost empty, and there were people who admired him, who came from thousands of miles away to see him off for the last time.

Shen Qi's two camphorwood boxes are very light.

There was no gold or silver, nor jewels.

Put Xia Duoduo in one bite.

There are 43 clay sculpture rabbits, big and small, in one bite.

Perhaps only the two young men of the Xu family know that what Shen Qi is best at pinching is not rabbits, but cats, big and small, cats with various postures and movements.

It's just that those clay cats never appeared again after they were squeezed out.

The two Mr. Xu Xiaolang have only seen Shen Qi's cat once.

The cat they had seen was in Shen Qi's coffin at this time, and was held in Shen Qi's hands.

The white cat is small and looks like a cub. It is lying on the big black rabbit, sleeping on its back and without heart.

The little white belly was exposed, and the four little paws were facing the sky, pink and tender. One of the black rabbit's paws rested on the kitten's body, and the expression on his face was extremely satisfied.

Mr. Shen pinched out with his own hands, and there are only two cats left in the world.

One when he was 22 years old.

One when he was 66 years old.

Both cats are now together in their black rabbits.

==

Hundreds of years later, the dynasties changed, and when the main force of the new dynasty broke through the imperial capital, someone lit a fire and burned down the houses. Most of the houses of the people were made of wood. Unluckily, he rushed to put out the fire, but as soon as the fire spread, a thunderstorm suddenly fell and put it out.It was the end of spring and the beginning of summer at this time, and it was normal to say that a sudden thunderstorm fell, which could have proved that the new dynasty was entrusted with heaven.

It's just that some people suddenly shouted, "It's the Shrine of Martyrs!"

The rebel army took a closer look, and sure enough, the fire was extinguished when it was about to burn to the Martyr's Shrine, and a soldier told Shangfeng about it, saying that the shrine was very strange.At this moment, most people kneel in front of the martyrs' shrine, asking for the protection of the martyrs.

He also asked if they should be expelled and how to treat the Martyrs' Shrine.

This matter reached the ears of the founding emperor, but the emperor laughed and didn't take it seriously. He said bluntly, "Most of the martyrs in the martyrs' temple of the previous dynasty were to protect the common people. Our uprising was also to protect the people of this dynasty. In this case, we What's the point of offering them together."

Since then, even though dynasties have changed, each dynasty has enshrined the incense of the Martyr's Shrine until finally, the Martyr's Shrine became a monument and stood on the central axis of the imperial capital.

Enjoy the eternal incense forever.
