September, fruitful.

A tough battle against locusts and drought has finally come to an end temporarily. The harvesting brigade of Zhongshan Kingdom is pushing the threshing machine from south to north to help harvest.This employment-based harvesting method gradually became popular with the emergence of large-scale agricultural equipment.

Moreover, these "Mikes" have also changed from farmers in Zhongshan to farmers in Dai County.

That's right, the Daijun people who bought the first batch of threshing machines in Zhongshan country are now very clever with these machines to earn money from the people of Zhongshan country.

But Zhongshan people don't care about these.Changes in the labor force structure have made them gradually tend to develop towards light agriculture and light industry. As for some unskilled and labor-intensive jobs, more and more citizens choose to spend money to hire others to complete them.

This has also formed a kind of competition. The adjacent Dai County and Zhuo County of Zhongshan State are all targeting this market, and the people of Zhongshan are generally more inclined to Dai County, which is quicker and more generous, because Dai County’s farm tools To be more advanced, after all, they were all bought from Zhongshan Country.

Farm work is paid according to the time. Daijun "Maike" who brought tools to the battle works quickly. Although there are a lot of sequelae and the daily labor cost is relatively high, the overall calculation is still calculated, and everyone can do it. accept.

The "Maike" in Zhuojun is more careful and harvested by hand, but the construction period is longer, and the damage to the grains caused by manual threshing is less, and the rice tastes more delicious.

Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. This is a purely commercial competition, and the government will not interfere.

Xia Anran, a small official in Zhuo County who came to discuss labor issues, said so, but he took advantage of the situation and rolled out a form to tell the other party how much labor and time can be saved by using Zhongshan's agricultural equipment.

In the case of the same unit time, the agricultural equipment in Zhongshan Country is definitely more economical than manual work. You can see which harvesting method our farmers in Zhongshan Country prefer.

Dear, do you want to buy a set of agricultural equipment?Now when you buy equipment, you will also get a gift package of high-quality forage seeds and livestock medicine.

The Zhuojun official looked at him with a wry smile, "Your Highness, we are so familiar."

Xia Anran was shocked, "This king and his brothers have to settle accounts clearly, we are not familiar enough to get a discount!"

"Besides, this king is about to get married. It's fine if you didn't bring a gift. How dare you ask me to give you a discount at this time?"

The little official was speechless, he never said there would be a discount!Obviously you said it all.I always feel that King Zhongshan is more difficult to deal with than before after he ignored the government, and it is specifically manifested in his face.In the past, the little highness was more restrained, but now... he completely let himself go.

He coughed dryly, "This is my act..."

Xia Anran blinked, "Then do you want to stay and watch the ceremony? It will be very lively then."

"Uh……"

"There will be surprises then."

Xia Anran smiled brightly.

When Zhidu entered, he saw the bewildered little official, and saw that Xia Anran had already started beckoning someone to take him to the hotel, so he immediately gave him a sympathetic look.

Another one was left by His Highness to boost the economy of Zhongshan Kingdom. There is still half a decade before the evening ceremony. During this period of time, living in Zhongshan Kingdom is just to spend here. I don’t know if this person has enough money.

His Highness is about to get married, and the overall results of the autumn harvest this time are better than expected, plus it was too tense a while ago, and everyone wants to take this opportunity to relax, so the little Highness’s evening ceremony was quite big this time, not at all. No longer the low-key of the normal evening ceremony.

His Highness also said that this time to share with the people, the curfew will be extended until Zishi in Lunu County, Zhongshan Kingdom.The reason why it was not possible to pass the night as before was also to reduce the pressure on the managers.At the same time, people are also allowed to place shops on the street during the day, but there must be a space for a car to travel.

And in order to congratulate His Royal Highness on his wedding, the merchants in Zhongshan Kingdom spontaneously offered a wave of promotions during the first ten days of His Highness's wedding, which immediately ignited the enthusiasm of the people.This move also attracted many speculators purely for the purpose of purchasing and hoarding goods, so the streets were already bustling before the time came.

Street guards in Zhongshan country lead police dogs on patrol several times a day to maintain law and order. If there is an argument on the street, they will immediately surround them.

It doesn't matter if you can accept the mediation, if there is a tendency to intensify, please go back to drink tea immediately. This time, His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, and the Lord Weng are also in Zhongshan Kingdom, and they are absolutely not allowed to make mistakes.

That's right, Liu Che will attend the little king's evening ceremony as the prince this time.This was not invited by Xia Anran, but in exchange for His Royal Highness acting coquettishly in front of Emperor Jing.

At this time, the Hun Li has not yet broken away from the shackles of Zhou Li, and the whole process is very low-key and ignored. Even the Hun Li ceremony of the vassal king is extremely simple, and there is no such thing as sending out invitation letters widely, so after Xia Anran decides on the date of marriage Just to report to the capital, who would have thought that Liu Che would immediately express his willingness to participate as soon as he heard the news.

Xia Anran was shocked when she received the news one day. When she saw her somewhat proud and excited brother, her first reaction was to kiss him first and then spank his ass.

Liu Che's position as prince was not secure. After Xia Anran returned to the country, Liu Che supervised the country alone several times intermittently. After Zhou Yafu resigned, the new prime minister was Wei Wan. This prime minister and Zhou Yafu had completely different personalities, extremely low-key and tactful. Liu Che got along very well with him.

The little prince performed very well during the period of independent supervision of the country, but this excellence undoubtedly poked the eyes of those who are interested.

Not long after Xia Anran left Beijing, a series of assassinations occurred in Chang'an City. Many courtiers who had praised the crown prince were stabbed, the most seriously injured was Yuan An.

This Taichang who once had a relationship with Xia Anran was stabbed four or five steps away from the door of his house.On this day, Yuan Ang happened to have an appointment, and he went home at the curfew point. At this time, it was already dead of night, his mouth was sealed with cloth strips and his hands were tied, unable to call for help.

If it wasn't for his wife who sent someone out to check, then Yuan An would have been discovered during the night watch or the next morning. According to the amount of blood he bleeds, it would not have been that long.

The assassin wanted him to watch his hope disappear before his eyes, and the method was really cruel.

Emperor Jing was furious about Yuan An's accident. He first sent the imperial physician to treat him with all his strength, and then sealed off Chang'an City and searched the whole city.This is the advantage of reorganizing house numbers, street names, and household registrations. The petty official took the street guards and the head of the house to look for them, but all the families who were not relatives were detained, and then checked one by one, and all the assassins were arrested within a few days.

Those assassins kept saying that one person should do the work and the other should be responsible, but the blades were all aimed at King Liang.

And Yuan Ang had never praised Liu Che before, but he had advised Emperor Jing and Queen Dowager Dou more than once before that the King of Liang should not be the prince, which was also a reasonable reason for being assassinated.

Because of this incident, there was a big earthquake in the harem. Empress Dowager Dou did not believe that this incident was done by King Liang anyway. She insisted that it was a frame-up, and later forced him to die several times to prevent Emperor Jing from investigating the matter thoroughly. In the end, King Liang himself took the initiative to go to the capital to cooperate with the investigation, and the matter ended.

The Lieutenant's Mansion still lived in a vassal king just like in history, but this vassal king was much luckier than the deposed prince Liu Rong in history.Liu Wu is the heart of Empress Dowager Dou, so she almost sent someone three times a day to ask him if he was doing well.

Although Emperor Jing detained Liu Wu, he did not send anyone to judge him. On the contrary, he could be said to be responsive to his younger brother. Apart from not being free, his small life was quite beautiful.

Originally, the trial of this kind of case was quite fast. After all, there were all the witnesses and material evidence. However, there was a severe drought last year, and Emperor Jing was so busy that he didn't have time to deal with his brother for a while, so the delay dragged on until this year.

Liu Che had a different view on this matter, "I don't think it's the emperor's uncle who sent someone to assassinate the minister."

He said this not because he was blinded by emotional factors, but because he had a factual basis.Liu Che explained to his elder brother: "These people are the emperor's uncle's retainers, but since the emperor's uncle was frequently busy with the Huns, he seldom stayed with them, and they were not very close to each other. The emperor said that he once He did complain, but he doesn’t remember telling these people, and it was several years ago, so there’s no reason why he didn’t come to repay his favor then and come now.”

"The most important thing is that Yuan Taichang's remonstrance was many years ago. We also know the character of the emperor's uncle. He is quick-tempered, but he forgets things quickly. He told Che'er before that he would not want to go to the Xiongnu next time but wanted to We are going to fight against the Xiongnu." Liu Che pondered for a while, and said, "I don't think Uncle Huang is a person who can endure Yuan An at that time and take revenge later."

To put it simply, Liu Che felt that his uncle was simple-minded and straight-line thinking, and that after ten years of revenge for a gentleman, he was simply not capable of doing it.

If he did this thing back then, he wouldn't have the slightest doubt, but now it's obviously not in line with Liu Wu's character.

Xia Anran was also thinking when she heard the words. At this moment, Chen Jiao said: "I also feel a little strange. When my mother came back and said...she said that these people kept saying that they were benevolent by the emperor's uncle, not ordered by the emperor, but by themselves. Return the favor. But I think . . . they confessed too quickly."

The two brothers looked at her suspiciously sideways, with the words "I don't know why" clearly written on their expressions.Chen Jiao pursed her lips: "Ah Tang said that if he really wanted to repay his kindness, he should commit suicide or try to commit suicide when he was caught. Even if he couldn't do it at the time, he wouldn't confess his benefactor so easily. He looked at these people The traces are just light punishments."

"That is to say, he suspects that these people were ordered to frame King Liang?"

Xia Anran quickly realized, Chen Jiao nodded to confirm his speculation, but then she sighed, "It's just that my mother told His Majesty, and His Majesty doesn't believe it."

...It may not be unbelief.

Xia Anran pondered for a while, and asked: "How is grandma, how's the mood these days?"

"Shang Ke, knowing that we came to congratulate elder brother's wedding, and asked us to bring gifts..." Chen Jiao was stunned, she covered her mouth and whispered, "Your Majesty knows?"

"...Grandmother should know about it too." Liu Che muttered, "So we are the only ones kept in the dark?"

I'm so pissed!

"Not necessarily!" Xia Anran shook her head, "It's the people behind the scenes that Father wants to deceive, he just didn't tell you. It's just that Father didn't expect you to be so smart."

The little king smiled slightly, "But no matter what, Your Majesty, Your Highness, it is an indisputable fact that your safety is being threatened."

Now that he guessed that someone was going to plot against King Liang, don't he know who the other party is targeting?The child clearly had a clear mind, but he still ran out at this time.

The more Xia Anran laughed, the smaller Liu Che shrunk. He gave a dry cough, and looked at Chen Jiao vaguely, warning her to hurry up and fulfill the gentleman's agreement between the two.

The little girl who received the hint from her eyes immediately said shyly: "Brother, His Royal Highness is actually here with me. I want to see how brother's funeral ceremony will be done, so as to serve as a reference for my future funeral ceremony."

"……real?"

Liu Che nodded sincerely, showing his brother his sincere eyes.Xia Anran and his younger brother looked at each other for a moment, and couldn't help poking his forehead with his hand, but they didn't pursue it further, they just asked people to increase the patrol of Zhongshan Kingdom.

Liu Che's departure probably caught others by surprise, and it was probably because of this old father that he let go.

Zhongshan Country is his territory, Xia Anran is quite confident about the safety here.And to be honest, the little king was actually quite happy that his younger siblings could come.

He got married for the first time, but according to the rules here, the brothers who are close to him cannot come because they cannot leave the fief, and the matter of inviting courtiers is somewhat taboo, let alone the parents. The only ones who are accompanying me are my companions, Li Danghu and his wife, and Empress Bo.

Even Dou Ying... Dou Ying is not easy to come here because of some sensitive factors, and Dou Wan's brothers, friends and relatives are not easy to invite because of well-known reasons... And for the convenience of Dou Wan in the future, this time he even has one and Uninformed people related to the military camp were not invited, and the total number of guests invited would not exceed two hands. Xia Anran also felt that this was too deserted.

Fortunately, his younger brother and sister are here now, and frankly speaking, he is quite happy.

but……

He looked at his younger brother and sister with some regret. These two grew up a little too fast. If it was the first time they met, they could be like a little flower girl spreading flowers or something.Liu Xiaozhu and Chen Jiaojiao were really too cute when they were young, but now they are a little... It's not that they look crooked, but they are not as cute as when they were young.

Liu Che shivered silently under his elder brother's gaze, for some reason he wanted to stay away from his elder brother very much at this moment.Chen Jiao was very calm. She was quite familiar with her brother's eyes. Sometimes her mother looked at her like this, and she could easily interpret the stern words.

Especially after Liu Xing brought her the same dress as "Zhu Yingtai" and asked her to wear it, but she refused, that was the look in his eyes.But my brother actually looks at Liu Che with this look... Well, are you really nervous?

Chen Jiao really doesn't appreciate Liu Che's appearance, she prefers the more handsome and beautiful ones, such as Han Yan's looks, or the gentle and handsome ones, such as Wei Qing's.Liu Che's personal appearance is a bit thick-headed and thick-headed, and he looks like a child at first glance.

Not to mention, the men around the prince are all good-looking.If she didn't know that there was a certain amount of karma in it, she would have thought that the prince was chosen by his face to accompany him.

The cousins ​​and brothers are still very similar in aesthetics to some extent.

Chen Jiao interrupted her brother's dangerous thoughts, "Brother, how does it feel to be married?"

Xia Anran was slightly taken aback, he thought for a while, and then slowly smiled, "I'm looking forward to it."

"I want time to go faster, but I also want time to go slower."

Why?

The two children tilted their heads together, Xia Anran pursed her lips and smiled without explaining.

I hope time will be faster, so that he can see Dou Wan sooner.

I hope that time will slow down so that he can make a more perfect arrangement.

This kind of complicated mood will not be understood unless the parties involved.

The speed of time will naturally not change due to personal wishes. The wedding date Xia Anran set is a sunny day with clear skies, and the blue sky in autumn is always more beautiful than other seasons. The clouds are rolling and the clouds are relaxing, and the autumn wind is gentle A piece of brilliant gold fell on the street.

The twilight ceremony starts at dusk, but this day begins to be lively as soon as you open your eyes in the morning.

Many people from Zhongshan Kingdom ran to the edge of the palace and shouted to send blessings to their little Highness, even though they knew that His Highness couldn't hear them, they were satisfied.How many of them were jokingly asking the guards what the future Queen would look like?Are you handsome?

Today's soldiers also have faint smiles on their faces. The prime minister has already ordered that the people's celebrations should not be stopped as long as they are not excessive. But when faced with the question about the queen... ahem, they don't know duck.

I have never seen it before.

The queen seems to be a particularly introverted lady from the official family, and she hasn't stepped out of the mansion since arriving in Zhongshan, so they haven't seen anyone at all.

That's it~ Just when the people were a little disappointed, several young people came out with a basket, and when they saw the villagers at the door, each of them stuffed a red envelope with two or three candies inside.

"This is wedding candy, His Highness said, thank you for your blessings, he heard."

Ju, did you hear that?The citizens of Zhongshan Kingdom looked at each other, and then they shouted in unison, as if they had agreed, "I wish Your Highness good luck." After shouting, everyone laughed and ran away.

Guaguan Mianmian is taken from the "Book of Songs", which means the same as giving birth to a precious son early, but it has a little more meaning of family continuity and prosperous descendants than giving birth to a precious son early.Xia Anran smiled lightly upon hearing these people's blessings, Mianmian is impossible, but eating melons together is still possible.

At this moment, he and Zhidu are conducting the final process confirmation.The guest of this wedding is naturally the prime minister, Zhidu. Regarding the few items that his highness added in the whole evening ceremony on a whim, as an insider, Zhidu's expression is very complicated. He watched Xia Anran finish the final check and got up. When he wanted to go out, he suddenly called out to him.

Zhi Du looked at this little highness with a bit of surprise, but his brows were full of joy, hesitated for a moment, and said, "May your highness grow old together."

"Thank you, Prime Minister." Xia Anran was only slightly surprised, but immediately laughed.He took out his sleeve and took out a red envelope and stuffed it into Zhidu's hand, "Happy candy. Congratulations! Prime Minister."

Zhi Du pinched the red seal with an indescribable expression on his face.It was not until a long time after Xia Anran left that he lowered his head to look at the red seal, squeezed the inside, it was really hard, opened it and saw that there were two flat pieces of caramel inside, Zhi Du's expression became even weirder.

Why is Your Highness stuffing sugar with you?It's all melted into the sleeves, is His Highness really still awake?

Strictly speaking, it's really not sober.

Xia Anran only felt that her feet were deep and shallow, and she felt a little dizzy after being drunk.He squeezed the palm of his hand, feeling a little numb in his hand, and could hear his own heartbeat even when he squinted his eyes.

Nervous, even more nervous than when he faced Emperor Jing directly as soon as he came to this world.

He picked the little red dot on his arm with his nails, "System, would you like to chat with me?"

[... What are you talking about? 】

"Let's just talk... how many people like me met someone they liked the first time they did a mission?"

The system was silent for a long time, as if it was brewing thousands of words, and finally did not answer his question [... The system kindly reminds that this is the mission world, and after the host mission is completed, it will stay at most until the end of the character's life. 】

"Liu Sheng has a long life," Xia Anran naturally had already prepared, "There are still three to forty years, enough."

【…】The system was silent for a moment, 【Then the system wishes the host good luck. 】

"Thank you."

While chatting with one person and one machine, Xia Anran suddenly heard the sound of flapping wings. He looked up and saw that it was Duoduo Goose arrogantly descending from the sky.

He didn't choose to fall into Xia Anran's arms this time, but stopped on the ground, and then Duoduo raised his long neck, signaling Xia Anran to look at his neck.

Duoduo has a concentric knot hanging under his collar today, and two bells are hanging under it, but it seems that in order to prevent someone from discovering it, the middle of the concentric bells is plugged with silk cloth.

Xia Anran untied the concentric bell from Duoduo's collar lightly, and pulled out the silk cloth, the bell immediately jingled.

Xia Anran was happy, of course he knew who sent it, he swayed the concentric knot twice in joy, he squeezed the goose's flat mouth, "Duo Duo, can you answer a letter for me?"

"Huh?"

At the end of the hour, the sky was getting dark and the auspicious time was approaching. Xia Anran took a carriage to the Zhongshan Kingdom's ancestral temple and waited quietly.

At three o'clock in Shenshi, which was an auspicious time, the bride arrived at the gate of the ancestral temple in a four-horse carriage. At the right time, Xia Anran saw his partner walking towards him step by step from a distance.

Dou Wan is wearing black clothes, and her black hair is loose.The layers of post-made dresses are extremely complicated, which set off his slender and tall figure. The young man has picturesque eyebrows and deep and quiet black eyes.He took a good look at him, and then walked towards him step by step with firm steps, every step seemed to be stepping on Xia Anran's heart.

At this moment, there is only one person in the eyes of the two.

He didn't realize it at all, but those who knew the ceremony couldn't help but feel a subtle sense of confusion.

Compared with the bride's clothes, which are all black, which symbolizes one's wholeheartedness, the prince's groom's wedding dress is black, and the lower part is brown, with embroidered piping on the sleeves and lower part, which looks very... er ,fancy.

Although such clothes imply that a man should be the top of the world, but when Xia Anran puts on the clothes, there is still a sense of gender confusion. when together...

Chen Jiao muttered to herself, "I thought the painting was perfect before, but now we are together... As expected, I shouldn't have listened to brother, I should have painted Dou Wan red cheeks!"

Liu Che immediately looked sideways, his eyes full of hatred that iron can't be made into steel.

Dou Wan married Liu Sheng as the daughter of the Dou family, so naturally she had to appear at the ceremony as a woman.If it had been two years earlier, Dou Wan's stature had fully grown at this time, and after the time when male and female were indistinguishable, he had been on the frontier for a long time, with military exploits in hand, he was naturally imposing.

In order to soften this too obvious masculinity, Chen Jiao and Empress Bo had a hard time.Although Dou Wan has always been very cooperative, and has no sense of embarrassment in changing into women's clothes, but this person is too powerful, as long as someone looks at him, he will not think that she is a delicate official lady , the momentum pouring out is simply unstoppable.

Fortunately, Empress Bo also has some experience now. She uses thrushes to cover her overly heroic eyes, and applies powder and rouge to increase its softness. It's just that Mouth Cream and Dan Kou didn't apply it because of Xia Anran's personal preference.

At first, she thought it was okay, but now the way this person stared at her brother was really... Chen Jiao silently opened the folding fan and covered her face, feeling a little ashamed to watch.

Ouch, this look...

As Dou Wan approached, Xia Anran's cheeks turned crimson little by little.Dou Wan's eyes were too enthusiastic, and the joy, anticipation and focus in it poured out even more. I could only see that the little king's fingertips were a little stiff, and his feet moved involuntarily. Your Highness's actions.

Xia Anran squeezed her hands, knowing that the expeller was reminding him not to move, that a married woman is not inferior.

However, he is not marrying a wife. What he is marrying is a life partner, a partner who spends his life supporting each other and is absolutely equal.

Xia Anran walked down the stairs step by step amidst the attention of everyone and the sound of breathing in. Halfway through, he stretched out his hand to the person who was walking quickly, and then his hand was tightly held by Dou Wan.

Dou Wan's palms were very hot, he stood side by side with the little king, his pupils looking sideways were so bright that they absorbed the rays of the sky, "Your Highness needn't be like this."

Xia Anran smiled lightly, "Jun Xu, you are different."

Junxu is the word Dou Ying gave Dou Wan to him before he "married".He has not yet reached the age of crowning, but a woman must have characters before she gets married, so Dou Ying crowned and bestowed characters on his nephew in advance.

You must remember that monarchs and ministers are different, you must know that self-reliance is strong, and you must understand that people's hearts are changeable.

Simple two words, but actually carry endless warnings and exhortations, Dou Wan understood it, but Xia Anran did not.

After knowing that Dou Wan has characters, the little king chewed them repeatedly. At first, he made a mistake in the word Xu, thinking it meant need, but thought these two characters sounded sweet.

With red cheeks, he leaned into Dou Wan's ear behind the crown and whispered, "Do you need me?"

That teasing naturally caused Dou Wan to prove to His Royal Highness how much he needed him, and later he knew it and thought it was okay, the word "need" means "need" and fake characters.

If Dou Ying knew that his warning, which was full of connotation and philosophy, had become a hobby of the husband and wife, he might not know what to think, but at this time, no one would care about his thoughts.

Xia Anran led Dou Wan, and he wrote Dou Wan's name next to his own at the auspicious time calculated by the Tai Shiguan.

Taichang put away the bamboo scroll written by the little king himself, and sealed it.Unexpectedly, at this moment, the little king suddenly took a scroll from the praiser next to him, and spread it out in front of Taichang.

Taichang opened it in a daze, and saw the words "marriage letter" in front of his eyes.

The first line is the line written by His Royal Highness:

Congratulations, today is the first ceremony, and a good relationship is established.

The poem chants Guanju, and the song Linzhi.

The fifth generation of Ruiye was prosperous, and the transformation of Ernan was opened auspiciously.With one heart and one mind, we respect each other as guests, and we will always be in harmony with each other.

Mutual assistance and sincerity, the oath of the mandarin ducks.

This card.

The author has something to say:

Xia Miaomiao: Obtain the certificate first, then get married!nothing wrong.

==

The last paragraph is the marriage letter of the Republic of China, which has been deleted, and the number of words is not counted in the points.

I think the congratulations in the marriage book of the Republic of China are really beautiful, there are several versions

Marriage certificates have been issued since the Tang Dynasty. In fact, in ancient times, it was a ritual to go to the ancestral temple to pay homage, and it was not registered on the household registration...well...not very important, otherwise how could there be such an operation as elopement.

To make a digression, there is a saying in the Western Han Dynasty that if you run, you will be a concubine.

The official dusk dresses of the Han Dynasty were much more fancy for men than for women.The color is the orange-red color of the sunset, so Xia Miao's clothes are black and red on the top and orange-red on the bottom, and she also wears red shoes.

Dou Wan's clothes are black and red, only the sleeves are piping...

Although I'd love for him to dress up as a woman...that's it. (It's a pity in my heart but I can't say it!)
