Chapter 219: Its inevitable to get married during the Chinese New Year

When the first snowfall came before winter, He Zhaojun entered the palace with his young brother wearing mourning clothes.

Emperor Wen sighed and said, "I feel sorry for your father and brother who sacrificed their lives for the country. If you have any requests, you might as well tell them and I will do my best to satisfy you."

What the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not expect was that He Zhaojun fell to his knees directly on the ground, kowtowed, then raised his head and said decisively.

"I have nothing to ask for. I beg your Majesty to kill the entire Xiao family to prove the law of the country!"

Qin Hao had already joined the company at this time, and he also saw the changes in He Zhaojun. He Zhaojun, who used to be able to do whatever he wanted, was dead. Now He Zhaojun is living for his dead father and brother, and for the rebirth of the He family.

Emperor Wen hesitated for a while. King Yong was already dead. If he was involved in the conspiracy, it would inevitably make the vassal kings everywhere feel sad, which would not be conducive to internal stability.

Soon there was a quarrel in the court. The civil servants rarely took He Zhaojun's side and advised Emperor Wen to kill King Yong's entire family in order to frighten other vassal kings.

Many of the military officers felt that after all, King Yong had made many military exploits in those years, and that they could outweigh his merits. They could only kill King Yong and his son, and the rest of the clan would be punished and exiled.

Just when everyone was arguing, Ling Buyi took the lead and stood up: "If having accomplished military exploits can be used to offset the crime of treason, wouldn't it encourage others to be disobedient? Your Majesty, please think again!"

Hearing what Ling Buyi said, the generals stopped talking. If they still spoke for King Yong at this time, there was no guarantee that the civil servants would not get caught.

"Your Majesty, please think twice." The civil servants also knelt down one after another.

Emperor Wen had no choice but to agree, but He Zhaojun made another request.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to personally execute Prince Xiao!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole court was shocked. Everyone looked at He Zhaojun in disbelief. After all, she was married to Prince Xiao.

Seeing the determination on He Zhaojun's face, Emperor Wen sighed secretly: "That's it, I'll leave it to you."

This incident quickly caused an uproar in the circle of famous ladies, and Cheng Shaoshang was also very surprised by He Zhaojun's behavior.

Qin Hao thought about it and roughly understood why He Zhaojun did this.

"Revenge is only one of them, the more important thing is self-protection."

Cheng Shaoshang looked at Qin Hao in surprise.

Qin Hao analyzed: "Those women from aristocratic families have nothing to do all day long, and they are just talking about the ill-mannered parents. When the He family was prosperous, He Zhaojun's wanton behavior inevitably offended many people. Now that the He family is in trouble, what will happen to those people?"

Will you miss this opportunity to ridicule her?"

"He Zhaojun just wants to use this incident to tell those famous ladies who are taking advantage of their food that she, He Zhaojun, is not someone to be trifled with."

Cheng Shaoshang suddenly realized: "It turns out there is still this meaning."

Then he held his head and said in distress: "Is it really true that I was pregnant for three years? Why didn't I notice it?"

Qin Hao was happy. After a woman gives birth to a child, all her thoughts will be devoted to the child. Naturally, her insight into other things will decrease. People's energy is limited, which is normal.

After listening to Qin Hao's explanation, Cheng Shaoshang felt some psychological comfort.

Turning around, amidst the flying snow, He Zhaojun came to the execution ground. Xiao Shizi was pressed on the Xingtai. When he saw He Zhaojun, he actually licked his face and begged her to intercede with Emperor Wen.

He Zhaojun directly spit on his face and gritted his teeth and said: "I wish I could eat your flesh and drink your blood. I blame myself for being blind and being deceived by you. I have asked Your Majesty to kill your entire clan. Today I will

Cut off your head to honor the spirits of my father and brother in heaven!"

Xiao Shizi struggled wildly and cursed, but He Zhaojun turned a deaf ear and just looked at him coldly, took the executioner's guillotine and slowly raised it.

I don’t know whether the woman was too weak or He Zhaojun did it on purpose. The first blow to Prince Xiao did not kill him, but the pain caused him to struggle crazily.

The second knife, the third knife, and until the fourth knife, Xiao Shizi was completely dead, and He Zhaojun chopped off his head with one knife.

Blood and snow mixed together, and a head riddled with holes rolled around on the ground several times before stopping.

He Zhaojun dropped the guillotine in confusion, knelt on the ground, looked up at the sky, and murmured to himself: "Father, brother, I have avenged you!"

With the beheading of the entire Xiao family, King Yong's rebellion has temporarily come to an end. As Zhengdan approaches, the people in the capital have begun to have a New Year atmosphere.

After Qin Hao became a doctor at Taiyuan University, his life became much more leisurely. His rank did not require him to go to court, and he had no specific position. His daily job was to help Emperor Wen organize some memorials and materials.

It may seem dispensable, but in fact, what Qin Hao came into contact with was first-hand information from the imperial court, which also allowed Qin Hao to better understand the specific situation of the country and benefited a lot.

Emperor Wen highly recognized Qin Hao's work performance, especially the induction method adopted by Qin Hao, which made Emperor Wen more comfortable in handling government affairs.

Every day, Qin Hao would summarize and classify the newly submitted memorials, dividing them into three categories: special urgent, urgent, and ordinary.

The particularly urgent ones are similar to the military situation in various places and natural disasters that occur in various places. The urgent ones are some local government affairs, such as official appointments, finance and taxation, sacrifices, etc. As for the ordinary ones, they are basically insignificant things, such as petty fights between officials.

A report, or a memorial praising Emperor Wen.

At first Emperor Wen and Prime Minister Deng Yu didn't quite believe that Qin Hao could classify all the memorials in a short time. After a week of testing, they found that Qin Hao's classification of memorials was extremely accurate and there had never been any omissions.

Both Emperor Wen and Prime Minister Deng Yu were amazed.

Although Emperor Wen still read the ordinary memorials after dealing with the more urgent memorials, he did not pay much attention to them as before. Those flattering memorials were basically just viewed by him as a pastime in his spare time.

As Zhengdan approaches, Qin Hao becomes more relaxed. Basically, he goes to the palace in the morning and hangs out until four o'clock in the afternoon, then he can go home to be with his wife and children.

Since the last time he went to Cheng's house and had a falling out with Xiao Yuanyi, Cheng Shaoshang did not go to Cheng's house again. Cheng Shi came to see his daughter and grandson from time to time.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Cheng Song and Cheng Shaogong would come over sometimes and secretly complained to Cheng Shaoshang, saying that Cheng Shi had been urging him since he met his grandson.

They get married soon.

In fact, it stands to reason that Cheng Song and Cheng Shaogong should be married at this age, but the two of them have followed Cheng Shi at the border since they were young, and have not interacted with young girls from aristocratic families in the capital. Those who are of the right age are basically married, and those who are not married

There are some problems with most people, either they don't have enough family background, or they don't have the right moral character. Xiao Yuanyi doesn't like them, so he has been delaying until now.

As a younger sister, Cheng Shaoshang got married early, so she naturally had to help her brothers. In the past, she didn't like to attend gatherings of famous families. During this period, she would basically go whenever she was invited.

Qin Hao couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Sure enough, this woman has the potential to be a matchmaker after she gets married."

Cheng Shaoshang was so angry that he punched him: "That's my brother, how can I not worry about it?"

"You are worrying so much. I see, your second brother already has his own heart, so you don't need to worry about it." Qin Hao pinched his son's face, but the little guy was so embarrassed that he burst into tears.

Cheng Shaoshang quickly picked up his son and coaxed him for a while before calming the little guy down. Qin Hao glared at the little guy angrily. After all, he had taken care of several children, and this was the first time that he was embarrassed by a child. Okay, this

I've just remembered it, and when I grow up, I'll look good on you.

After coaxing his son well, Cheng Shaoshang could no longer hold back his flames of gossip: "My heart belongs to someone? Who does my second brother like? How come I don't know?"

Qin Hao hit her on the head: "You still help match others with your eyes. Didn't you realize that your second brother attaches great importance to Wan Qi Qi?"

"What? Wife and my second brother?" Cheng Shaoshang covered his head, feeling that his three views were about to be subverted. In her opinion, Cheng Song was a quiet man, while Wan Qiu was steely.

Straight women, with completely different personalities, how come they see each other right?

"You may have seen it wrong, right?" Cheng Shaoshang asked doubtfully.

Qin Hao smiled: "If you don't believe me, let's wait and see."

Then, when Wan's wife came to the house during the Zhengdan period, Cheng Shaoshang kept staring at her, which made Wan's wife look gross.

But Cheng Shaoshang couldn't say it clearly yet. Wouldn't it be a bad thing if Wan Wives had no interest in Cheng Song?

Cheng Shaoshang could only take a roundabout route and ask Wan Qiu's wife insinuatingly what standards she had for her future husband.

Wan Qishuqiu slapped her chest: "My husband must not be one of those young men from aristocratic families who can only talk and talk. They are all incapable of restraining themselves. Those who talk all day long will give people a headache."

Cheng Shaoshang's heart suddenly dropped.

The urge to get married during the New Year seems to be an eternal topic. Yuan Shen will inevitably be asked this question when he comes to pay New Year greetings. After all, he is two years older than Qin Hao.

"I don't know what your mother is thinking. At such an age, she doesn't worry about your marriage at all. This well-known girl of the right age has already been seeing someone else. In two years, there will be too little room for choice.

.”

Yuan Shen also fell into silence for a while. In fact, as a child of an aristocratic family, Yuan Shen was lucky in the matter of marriage. Due to her mother Liang's own tragedy, she always maintained a laissez-faire attitude towards Yuan Shen's marriage and encouraged her.

Yuan Shen should find the woman he likes and get married, so as not to repeat her tragedy.

It's a pity that Yuan Shen has not met the woman who makes his heart beat to this day, so the matter has been postponed.

"Aunt, it's better to wait for this matter. My nephew has his own thoughts." Yuan Shen is an extremely rational person. He set a time for himself. If he does not meet the woman he is attracted to again within two years, he will find her.

A well-matched and well-matched girl spends the rest of her life together.

Qin Yuan still wanted to say something, but Qin Fang secretly pulled her sleeve. Qin Yuan had no choice but to sigh and give up persuasion.

On the first day of the new year, Nannan was the happiest. This was also her first New Year in the capital. The New Year's money alone was enough to collect a box, and there were many greeting gifts. Over the years, Qin Fang established herself in the capital.

At the same time, some relatives of the Qin family also began to come to the capital to develop. As Qin Hao's adopted daughter, Nannan naturally had a gift.

Not to mention the little guy, what kind of longevity lock, golden ring or the like can't be worn on his two fat arms. As the direct grandson of Qin's family, the little guy is still very popular, no matter where he goes

He was surrounded and coaxed by a group of people everywhere, and he was even more popular than Qin Hao.

Cheng Shaoshang is also a mother, and the Qin Yuan family always praises her wherever she goes. She has long helped to wash away her reputation as a naughty young man. Now Cheng Shaoshang is also a model among famous ladies, at least in the beginning.

No one can say anything to her about Zhi Sanye.

Of course, people like Lou Hang and Wang Jian, who have had a grudge against Cheng Shaoshang since childhood, are still trying their best to slander her. In addition to their old grudges from childhood, they also think that Cheng Shaoshang has taken her away.

A good marriage that "originally belonged to them".

Now Qin Fanggui has won Emperor Wen's trust for Jiuqing, and Qin Hao has also entered Taiyuan College, with a bright future. Coupled with the sales of porcelain, the Qin family's money is endless. Who wouldn't be jealous of such a family?

It is estimated that Lou Hang and Wang Jiao often used the villain as Cheng Shaoshangzha to vent their anger behind their backs. Unfortunately, this thing was just a psychological comfort and did not work at all. Cheng Shaoshang accompanied Qin Hao to Rong County for three years, not only

Nothing happened, but she gave birth to a boy, which further cemented her position as the future mistress of the Qin family.

This also made Lou Hang and Wang Jian very discouraged. Recently, the Lou family and the Wang family were negotiating for their marriage, and they would not be able to enjoy the blessing of the future mistress of the Qin family.

During this period, Qin Hao either went out to visit relatives or stayed at home with his wife and children, and he lived a comfortable life.

Winter turned to spring, and after the Lantern Festival, the imperial court resumed its previous work rhythm. Qin Hao also started commuting to and from get off work on time every day. The man-making plan with Cheng Shaoshang could finally be slowed down slightly, which made Qin Hao secretly relieved. tone.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Alas, we all know the fears of married men.

As March approached, the snow melted and everything revived. Emperor Wen consulted Taishi Ling and set the date for the first sacrificial event of the new year - the Tu Gaoshan Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony. Officials in the Ministry of Rites also began to get busy.

It was said to be a sacrifice, but in fact it was more like a spring outing for the emperor, officials, and aristocratic families, and Qin Hao and Cheng Shaoshang were naturally among them.

"Dad, can Nannan go?" Nannan asked with longing on her face.

Qin Hao smiled and pinched the little girl's cheek: "Of course."

"Then why don't you bring your brother with you? We're all going. My brother is crying all alone at home." Nannan happily clapped her hands while not forgetting the little guy who was lying in the nurse's arms and sucking milk.

Qin Hao was happy: "Okay, then let's go together as a family."

"Oh, great, thank you, Daddy." Nannan is so sensible that it makes people feel heartbroken.

On the day of the Tu Gaoshan Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, Cheng Shaoshang took his daughter and little guy out of the city in a carriage. However, after arriving at Tu Gaoshan, they could only walk up it. It was not because the mountain road was difficult, but mainly because the ancients were very particular about sacrifices.

Sincerely, everyone must climb up on foot, even Emperor Wen is no exception.

This was a hardship for the children of the aristocratic families who were usually pampered. They were as tired as dogs when they climbed halfway up the mountain. Yuan Shen also changed his previous chic image. The folding fan Qin Hao gave him in the hand was almost worn out.

He broke the fan and was still sweating profusely.

"Cousin, how are you? If it doesn't work, just stop and take a rest. It's not embarrassing." Qin Hao said.

Just when Yuan Sheng was about to agree, he saw Cheng Shaoshang holding his child and walking past him calmly.

"No, I can still do it." Yuan Shen gritted his teeth and followed.

On the other side, the teams of the Cheng family and the Wan family had already climbed halfway up the mountain. Wan's wife glanced at the two brothers Cheng Song and Cheng Shaogong with disgust, and walked in front leisurely with their hands behind their backs.

"Second brother, I can't survive anymore. Let's rest for a while. You see so many people can't walk. No one will laugh at us." Cheng Shaogong said and was about to find a place to stay.

But he was pulled up by Cheng Song and gritted his teeth and said: "Didn't you see the look in Wan's wife's eyes just now? How can we be compared with a little girl?"

Cheng Shaoshang complained: "Wanqiu Wife is just an ordinary little girl. Besides, second brother, why do you care about the look in her eyes? You don't want to marry her."

Cheng Song almost lost his breath and choked on his saliva, but still firmly pulled Cheng Shaogong up, gritted his teeth and continued climbing up the mountain.

Tu Gaoshan is not too steep. When Emperor Wen climbed up to the terrace on the top of the mountain, he glanced down and frowned.

"The world has only been at peace for a few years, and these children of aristocratic families are so weak. If the world changes in the future, how can I rely on them to restore peace to the world?"

The ministers and eunuchs on the side did not dare to say anything. Ling Buyi stood beside Emperor Wen with a calm expression, but his face was not red and he was not breathless after making a sound, allowing Emperor Wen to comfort him a little.

When Emperor Wen saw that Qin Hao and his family were the first to arrive at the terrace, he couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction. After all, there were still a few trustworthy people among the younger generation.

The heaven-sacrifice ceremony was very complicated and took several days to complete. After sacrificing three animals and five animals, there were basically no problems for officials like Qin Hao, who were not very high-ranking, and the children of the aristocratic families.

Emperor Wen did not restrain everyone. After setting up camp, they could move around freely. Of course, the premise was that they were not allowed to disturb the ceremony of worshiping the heaven.

The children of the aristocratic families who had come back after a long period of time naturally had no time to relax. It just so happened that Mr. Ben Laohou held a riding and shooting competition, which attracted the vast majority of the children of the aristocratic families to participate. The famous ladies also took the opportunity to compete for beauty, which was very lively.

Qin Hao was also invited, so Qin Hao still had to give him some face.

Yuan Shen secretly said to Qin Hao: "You dare to come out and embarrass yourself with such skill, why doesn't Zihan go up and show off your skills?"

Qin Hao smiled and shook his head: "This situation is obviously set up by Mr. Ben Laohou to choose his grandson's wife, so why should I bother others? What's more, I'm married now, so the opportunity to shine is still reserved for my cousins ​​and other unmarried families.

The younger ones are."

Ban Laohou Ye is an old and strong hero. His family was destroyed by the cruel emperor of the previous dynasty. His children died in infancy, leaving only five grandchildren. Each of them was brave and good at fighting. They were called Ban's Five Tigers. Later, they fought with Emperor Wen.

In the world, four of the five Ban clan tigers are dead and one is crippled. They can be said to be full of loyal men and women.

The only regret is that the population of Banshi is very small. The five tigers of Banshi have been fighting in the field all year round. The four who died did not even leave any heirs, and the disabled one cannot give birth to any more offspring. In the whole Banshi, there is only one seedling of Banjia.

He has grown up under the care of the Ban family since he was a child.

This time, Mr. Ban Laohou also thought that his grandson was about to come of age, so he planned to choose a wife for Ban Jia among these famous ladies to carry on the family line.

Cheng Shaoshang looked at it for a while and felt a little bored, so he suggested going out for a walk. Qin Hao thought that he had already shown his face anyway, and Ban Laohou had given him the respect, so he agreed and took Cheng Shaoshang with Nannan.

Take a walk around the back to relax.

When Qin Hao and his party came to the back mountain, Cheng Shaoshang suddenly blushed and secretly said to Qin Hao: "My chest is a little swollen. There is a tower over there. Let's go there and take shelter."

Qin Hao knew that her breasts were engorged. Although there was no one in the woods, there was no guarantee that someone might break in suddenly, so he nodded.

"The Romance of Fairy Wood"

"Then let's go."
