Cry for Song

Chapter 123 Men wear flowers

"Come by, don't go."

"Tay it, what's going on."

As soon as they came out of the council chamber, Wang Zhennan and A Gu hit and grabbed Shi Qian's curious question.

"Oh, two masters, it hurts,~" Shi Qian grinned and quarreled, and Wanyan Agu's hand pinched his arm like pliers.

"You boy, go out and get a daughter-in-law. It's really yours."

"Hey hey, it's okay. This little lady looks good, doesn't she?" Shi Qian said proudly.

"It's good-looking. Why is it so plain, and she can't get married until the end of her filial piety." The three of them walked out to the inner courtyard and went back to Wang Zhennan's room together.

"Let me tell you, this little lady's surname is Sun, and she is the daughter of Sun Qian in Qinghe County."

"Who is Sun Qian?" Wang Zhennan and A Guda did not know Wang Bong's experience in Qinghe County and asked in one voice.

The family in the room added fire to the stove tripod, and some brought fruit tea to the two young masters. Shi Qian first talked about Qinghe County, explained the friendship between Sun Qian and the Wu family, and then said, "Ximen Qing dominates in Qinghe County. Sun Qian is also my father-in-law. Although he killed Liu Yishou for revenge, he died in prison. The wife had nowhere to go. Fortunately, she had also learned some martial arts since she was a child. In addition, some clerks in the house followed Sun Qian for many years, so she followed him to leave Qinghe County. It happened that we changed owners through that inn, and they temporarily took the place.

"Then why did you stay there again?"

"Oh, I'm just a joke. I wanted the little lady to pay attention to it, but I paid a lot of attention to it. I thought I was sent by Ximen Qing's men. It was also a coincidence that when Dai Zong Wuling went back, someone happened to find the trouble of Sun Er girl, and let Wu Ling and his people beat him away. Wu Ling saw that the shop was Sun Qian's descendants took her and her men to the capital. Doesn't the royal palace have to use people?

"Well, why did my father marry this girl to you again?" Wang Zhennan asked.

"That girl has a fancy to me." Shi Qian pinched a piece of fruit and threw it into his mouth.

"You don't tell the truth, right? How can a girl like you when she is so beautiful?" Wanyan Agu said that he pressed his shoulder with his hand.

"Of course, my martial arts are world-class. Ouch, it hurts." Shi Qian's teeth grinned and tears were about to come down. A Gu also felt something was wrong. Looking carefully, he found that the shoulder was a little thicker.

"How did you get this injury?" A Gu asked.

Shi Qian bypassed Aguda, raised his leg and squatted on the stool, and gently touched the injured shoulder with one hand: "Actually, the girl knew that day that I was not sent by Ximenqing, so she already wanted to let me go, but I think that since Brother Dai Zong has come back to report, if I go back to the capital, the people of the royal palace will go. It's easy to make a misunderstanding, so I waited for an extra day or two. As a result, Ximen Qing's men came to make trouble, and they also threatened that they didn't get the wife of Wu University, and it's not bad to ask Sun Erniang to go back. Do you think I can't stand up? It's inevitable that I will be a little injured in the melee. Fortunately, Wu Ling arrived in time.

Only then did the two little brothers understand that it must be the time-moving hero who saved the beauty and won the girl's heart.

"After Wu Ling came back, she also said that the girl's life was pitiful, but after all, the girl stayed in the royal palace for fear of being misunderstood by outsiders. The prince promised to wait for the girl to help the girl find a good marriage after she was depressed. In the future, she also had a support. Miss Sun said that she already had a favorite person. Hey hey, I didn't expect that the girl was quite angry, let alone expected it. The prince's mouth was full of acceptance, hey hey, hey hey." Speaking of this time, he giggled.

"Are you happy to see how happy you are?"

Shi Qian jumped off the chair and walked back and forth in the room: "Yes, if only my father were still there. Unfortunately, he couldn't see it. It would be better if Prince Liang was here, but he was busy with Xixia, and if only my master was here..."

"What are you muttering about?" Wang looked at Shi Qian and asked with a smile.

"I didn't feel anything just now. Now I suddenly feel that I'm going to be the groom. Do you think I can't be nervous?"

"It's still two years. What are you busy talking about? Are you in a hurry to enter the bridal chamber now?" A Gu said with a big laugh.

Wan Aguda is originally a real woman with a bold personality, and she is also a family. Naturally, she will not have scruples. However, Wang Zhennan listened to it, but he bowed his head and smiled. Shi Qian casually folded a flower from the plum bottle and put it in his temples: "

Well, that's not in a hurry, but when you think that you are about to have a family, you are an adult. If you are an adult, you can do adult things, so that Brother Dai Zong will always look at me like a child.

"Ding a flower is an adult." Wang Zhennan looked at Shi Qian and said with a smile.

Shi Qian touched the corners of his temples and said, "Well, by the way, have you noticed that many men wear flowers on the street? Isn't it beautiful?"

"You Song people are really strange. Wearing flowers is a woman's business, but now it's popular for men to wear flowers. Good mother." The topic was successfully transferred by time transfer. A Guda often went out with Wang Zhennan in the past two days, and it seems that he also found this question.

"This is not a mother. On the eve of Song Zhenzong's Dongfeng (to Taishan Feng Zen), Chen Yaosui and Ma Zhijie were appointed as the left-behind and trolaries of Tokyo (capital) respectively. After the title of official, Song Zhenzong left them in the palace for a banquet to celebrate. The three kings and ministers wore bright peonies and drank until they were happy. Song Zhenzong from his own head. He took off one of the most precious peonies and put them on Chen Yao in person, so that Chen Yao was grateful. After the banquet, a gust of wind came to his face and blew down a petal. Chen Yaos hurriedly called the servant to pick it up and carefully put it in his arms. He also said: This is a gift from the official, which cannot be abandoned. The solemnity is overflowing with words, and wear Flowers are Chinese etiquette. In all activities such as celebrating the birthday of the holy festival, celebrating the beginning of spring, giving gifts, and sacrificing the ancestors of heaven and earth, everyone wears palace flowers, and flowers are divided into raw flowers and like flowers. Fresh flowers immediately make flowers. Like flowers are fake flowers, made of silk fabrics. Palace flowers belong to the category of raw flowers and are special rewards of the court. What kind of status to wear, what kind of flowers, what kind of level to wear, are very fastidious and clearly stipulated.

I have never heard of Wang Zhennan's allusions, Shi Qian and Wanyan Aguda. I didn't expect that there were so many things that Song men wore flowers.

"The king of the red dust smiled, and no one knew that it was a peony." The voice next to the king came from outside the door, and the three teenagers hurriedly got up to meet each other.

"Dad."

"Father-in-law"

"Your Majesty."

"Hahaha, Zhennan said it well. I thought you only knew the strategy of military books, but I didn't expect to know more about allusions and etiquette." Wang walked into the room with a smile.

"Dad, why are you here? Just ask someone to call me if I have something to do."

"It doesn't matter. After finishing the things in the house, you can walk around casually. Listen to what you say about wearing flowers etiquette. That's good."

Three people followed the king, and the king sat down at the table. Originally, he also walked casually. Today, he thought it was interesting to think about it. He casually walked to the side courtyard of Wang Zhennan and thought that he was also in this courtyard when he first came to the Song Dynasty. Suddenly, he sighed in his heart, so he didn't let his subordinates spread the message. It has come in.

"Dad, you just said that the king of the red dust smiled. No one knew that the peony came, but the child didn't understand. I only knew that Tang Dumu's "The Unexpected Sentence of the Huaqing Palace" looked back at the embroidery into a pile. Thousands of doors on the top of the mountain opened one after another, and the red dust concubine smiled. No one knew that it was the lychee. Why did Dad changed the original poem?" Wang Zhennan thought about it for a long time, and now he blinked and asked curiously.

"I want to hear it."

Wang Zhennan nodded, and the king smiled and asked them to sit down. "In those years, there was a custom in the palace. A fishing banquet was held every year. At the banquet, the emperor would give flowers to the ministers. Moreover, the more noble the status of the ministers, the higher the official position, the more precious the flowers given. However, precious flowers are rare, and in the process of transporting the capital There were a series of questions such as preservation, which hurt people's brains at that time. In the era of Song Zhenzong, Luoyang peonies were very famous, and Yao Huang, Wei Zi and other peony treasures were even more than the best. However, Luoyang was more than 200 kilometers away from the capital. With the backward transportation conditions such as muons, horses and sails at that time, those peonies should be sent to the capital in perfect condition. It is an impossible task. For this reason, Luoyang's left-behind people tried their best. For example, in order to prevent the petals from falling and moisturizing, they placed the flowers in a bamboo cage and stuffed them with tender green vegetable leaves around the flowers. In order to ensure the stability of the stems, they invented the method of "wax sealing flower pedicles", that is, sealing the flowers with wax. Di, the flowers will not fall for a few days; in order to seize the time, they also asked to send the flower school to the capital by "special express mail" day and night, with a smile of the emperor. Although it is just a small flower, it is really a very difficult task.

Wang Zhennan suddenly realized, and his eyes smiled and said, "So Dad, you used Du Mu's unique sentence. As soon as he rode the red dust king smiled, no one knew that it was a peony. Dad, you are really awesome. I admire you."

"Of course, my father-in-law is better than you. He knows more than you, and I admire him very much, but I really don't understand the poems of the Song people, but I know how to speak well." Wanyan Agu also said with a smile.

"How's it going? Shi Qian, a flower on your head has led to so many allusions. Wang Zhennan said.

"Hey hey, I knew that when I rode the red dust, I smiled, and no one knew that it was Er Niang." After saying that, Shi Qian put out his tongue and made a grimace, which made everyone in the room laugh.

"You boy, why don't you hurry up and clean up? You'll be on your way tomorrow. Your injury..." Wang said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, it doesn't matter if you are injured, and didn't you say that? I just sit in the car and pretend to be you."

"Well, be careful on the way, don't show your real face." The king told him.

"Dad, we want to go too." Wang Zhennan took a look at A Guda.

"You also want to go."

"Yes, father-in-law, my father wants me to practice more with my father-in-law. You can take us with you."

Wang thought that not long after the two children came back, he had the intention to arrange for them to follow Jiao Deyou, who stayed in the capital, to arrange the migration to Yunzhou, but looking at them one by one with their expectant eyes, he smiled and said, "Okay, you follow me to Dali."

"All right." Wang Zhennan and Wanyan Agu had an excited high-five, and their wishes were finally fulfilled.
