The third day of October in the first year of the Great Mongol Kingdom (AD 1206).
Since Temujin unified Mongolia at the beginning of the year, it has been stipulated that Naadam (play fairs) of different sizes will be held on the grasslands every May, August, and October.
The nobles and herdsmen prepared various delicious dairy products, brewed kumiss, slaughtered cattle and sheep, and sewed new clothes. Take part in traditional competitions such as archery, wrestling, and horse racing, immersing the entire grassland in a joyful and peaceful atmosphere.
On this day this year, Temujin simply held a wedding for his favorite little princess and the golden sword consort.
For more than half a year, Guo Jing has gone through several processes including matchmaking, blind date, engagement, betrothal gift, and marriage promise. Today is the big day to welcome the bride.
To Huang Rong's surprise, Huang Yaoshi suddenly appeared not long ago and became the national preceptor of the Great Mongolia. Today, as an elder, I sit directly side by side with Temujin.
Under the golden tent, the sound of horses honking melodiously not far away.
In the distant mountains, the fragrance of Gesang flowers spread all over the mountains and fields. Under the green velvet lawn, the sunlight is steaming and water vapor is rising. In the mist, the mist is flowing, and the sunshine is warm.
Soon, a group of cavalry rushed over. The leader, Guo Jing, was wearing a gorgeous Mongolian robe, a ribbon around his waist, a round-top red tassel hat, high leather boots, and a bow and arrow. He rode in front.
The best man, Tuo Lei, also dressed gorgeously and followed behind with floats and gifts.
The golden bells sounded crisply in the wind, and there was a happy smile under the brim of the hat.
According to the rules, when Guo Jing arrived at the king's tent, he first walked around the yurt and presented a "door-touching sheep" and various other gifts to the girl's family.
A master of ceremonies at the main gate took the gift list and shouted loudly: "The golden sword is given to Genghis Khan as a gift to the Prince Consort, a door-stepping sheep, one thousand taels of gold, ten thousand taels of silver, one hundred war horses, and two Yuan-Building Pills... I want to marry Hua Zheng." Princess!"
"As a gift to the Mongolian National Guard, I will give you a goat... I want to marry Princess Changle!"
In the king's tent, Temujin smiled at Huang Yaoshi who was sitting next to him: "Master, Guo Jing has spent all his money this time. How about we let him get the money?"
Huang Yaoshi smiled and nodded. Originally, he just wanted to come over to support his daughter, but he didn't expect that this cheap son-in-law would actually come up with a magical medicine like Buyuan Dan.
More importantly, this puts the medicine in his name.
When Temujin asked him about it, he was immediately confused. Fortunately, he is an old Jianghu and is proficient in fortune-telling. He is good at deceiving and abducting people. He can find out the truth in just a few words, and then he becomes the national master.
"The prince-in-law enters the tent!" the master of ceremonies shouted.
Guo Jing and Tuo Lei had been waiting for a long time. After hearing the order, they held Hada (ceremonial silk fabric) in their hands, entered the tent, and bowed down.
"Meet my father Khan and my national master!"
Temujin laughed: "Today is a happy day, no need for too many etiquette, just get up."
Then he told the queen next to him: "Bring out the two brightest pearls on our grassland."
"yes!"
Originally, according to the rules of the grassland, Guo Jing was asked to welcome the bride home and then hold various ceremonies. But after all, they were two girls and both were wives, so they simply held the wedding in this royal tent.
They were also the first couple to hold a wedding in King Temujin's tent. When the news spread, many women became extremely jealous.
The Great Khan also liked Hua Zheng and the Consort too much!
After a while, Hua Zheng and Huang Rong were led by the Queen and Han Xiaoying and slowly walked into the tent.
Both girls are wearing phoenix crowns and elegant tassels, python robes with jade belts, flower-pleated skirts underneath, and bright red embroidered shoes. They are all festive.
Originally, the Huazheng was a traditional Mongolian bridal wear, but when she saw Huang Yaoshi bringing his daughter a phoenix crown harem designed by himself, she quickly invited the beautiful ladies from the Song Dynasty under Guo Jing to quickly come up with a set.
The two girls slowly walked towards Guo Jing. Under their nearly translucent red silk scarves, their red wedding dresses reflected their peach-like faces. Their longing eyes, red lips and white teeth, and their every move and gesture revealed a charming charm.
Her skin is as white as jade, her slender waist is like a tight silk belt, her fingers are like the tips of fresh onions, the phoenix crown on her head and the pearls on her body shine brightly in the candlelight
"Princess Huazheng, Princess Changle is here!" the master of ceremonies shouted.
After seeing the two brides, all the men in the king's tent were filled with envy. A flower was stuck on the cow dung!
The women's eyes sparkled when they looked at the gorgeous clothes, it's so pretty!
Guo Jing opened his mouth slightly. It was the first time that he felt that his beloved girl was so beautiful.
"Bride and groom, kneel down to your elders and toast!" the master of ceremonies shouted.
Guo Jing and his two daughters toasted to Temujin, Huang Yaoshi, the seven masters, and Li Ping respectively.
Except for Temujin, several others laughed and cried.
It’s really not easy to raise your children and apprentices to such a big age and finally have a family.
"Dad, thank you!" Huang Rong said to Huang Yaoshi with tears streaming down her face.
She knew how difficult it was for her father to do what he was doing for her because of his proud temperament.
Huang Yaoshi's eyes were red and he said seriously: "Jing'er, you are not allowed to bully Ronger in the future. If I know that she has been wronged, I will beat your cat!"
He thought that he might be a little inferior to Guo Jing now, but he knew that Guo Jing loved the little yellow cat, so he decided to change his target.
Install the latest version. 】
With his top five strength in the world, could he not even be able to defeat a cat?
The little yellow cat on the table next to him was eating and drinking:? ? ?
"I understand, father-in-law."
Temujin also smiled and said: "Guo Jing, I have watched you grow up since I was a child. I believe in you. I will hand Huazheng into your hands today. I hope you will be the best family in Changshengtian."
"I got it, Father Khan!"
When they arrived at the Jiangnan Seven Monsters, except for Ke Zhen E, the other five men were crying loudly and were speechless. Eighteen years of careful teaching is almost like raising a son.
Ke Zhen'e smiled and said: "Jing'er, speaking of being your master, we are actually reaching a high level. With your qualifications and talents, no matter who you choose as your master, you will be able to achieve something.
But I still have to rely on my old man and sell my old man to teach you one thing: A great chivalrous man is for the people. This is also the principle that we Seven Devils have practiced throughout our lives. "
"I will follow the teachings of my master!" Guo Jing said seriously.
When she came to Li Ping, Li Ping wiped her tears with a handkerchief. Looking at these two beautiful daughters-in-law, she couldn't be too satisfied.
When she gave birth to her child in the desert snow, she thought she was at the end of her rope. But it seemed that everything was different when I heard a soft meow.
Thinking about it, Li Ping took out two jade pendants from her arms. They were crystal clear. The key was that there was a thin golden line in the middle. Under the light, there seemed to be golden light flowing.
"This is a pair of jade pendants passed down from our Guo family. I will pass them on to you today. I hope you will have peace and success in your future life."
Huang Rong and Hua Zheng took the jade pendants. They had been preparing for the wedding for a long time and were already very exhausted. But the moment he took the jade pendant, it was like spring breeze turning into rain, his eyes suddenly became radiant, and his whole person became much brighter.
Huang Rong looked at the jade pendant. The golden thread in the middle seemed familiar, but the hair seemed a little brighter and yellower than the one given by Brother Jing.
"Thank you, mother!"
The little yellow cat below who was eating and drinking was no longer surprised.
It’s not his kitten’s fur anyway! He doesn't shed hair! And a lot!
...
When the elder worship was over, the master of ceremonies shouted: "Let the banquet begin!"
After a while, a group of maids served wine and food and entered the king's tent one by one. Many foreign women came in to sing and dance.
"Prince of the Jin Dynasty: Wan Yankang, wedding gift: two hundred maids, ten thousand taels of gold, and ten deep sea pearls, come and pay homage to Genghis Khan!"
"Prince of the Xia Dynasty: Li Chengzhen, wedding gift: two hundred maids, ten thousand taels of gold, and a pair of deep-sea purple corals. Come and pay homage to Genghis Khan!"
"The envoy of the Song Dynasty, Xin Qiji, gave a wedding gift: one hundred thousand taels of silver, one hundred craftsmen, and one hundred thousand dan of grain. Come and pay homage to Genghis Khan!"
Later, the elders of the Beggar Clan, the Cheng family of Yangzhou, the Lu family of Taihu, Qiu Chuji of the Quanzhen sect, and other famous sects and centuries-old families came to visit him one after another, bringing various rare treasures as congratulatory gifts, which amazed everyone present.
I didn't expect these poor guys to be really rich, and they would rob him in two years! Some princes thought to themselves.
Temujin was beaming with joy today, and his usually serious expression could no longer be tense. He never expected that in his lifetime there would be a scene where all nations would come to court.
Then in a few years, wouldn't he be comparable to Tang Taizong?
Feel comfortable!
"Give me a seat! Give me some wine! I'm happy today, drink to your heart's content!" Temujin shouted boldly.
…
That night, after Guo Jing got everyone in the room drunk, he came to the bridal chamber in high spirits, two of them.
Looking at the two large red tents in the east and west, Guo Jing was a little hesitant, which one should he go to?
"Sister Rong, we have collected a lot of gifts today. It will take a lot of time to count them." Suddenly Hua Zheng's happy voice came from the tent in the east.
Guo Jing walked in curiously and saw two brides happily counting the various gifts sent by the guests today. The list of these gifts alone is a thick stack.
It can be said that with these things, Brother Le will never cry hungry again. Looking at this list, Guo Jing suddenly felt very confident.
It’s just a kitten, how much can it eat?
Late at night, after ordering the gifts, Huang Rong seemed to think of something, suddenly blushed, stood up and wanted to leave: "You are busy, I will go back first."
Hua Zheng pulled her back: "Don't leave, come together, I'm scared!"
The girl's delicate face was slightly frightened.
Huang Rong's small figure was shaking even more violently: "Well, how can we do this together?"
Guo Jing hugged the two girls and said with concern: "Ladies, you have been busy today and you are tired. Go to bed first."
The two women were slightly relieved, but they felt inexplicably disappointed.
The three of them undressed and lay down.
"Ah, Ronger, don't touch your hands!"
soon.
The golden needle pierced the core of the peach blossom, and I didn't dare to frown loudly.
One day and one night.
When I was a child, I was ashamed of bedwetting, but when I grow up, I feel satisfied with bedwetting.
According to the rules of the Song Dynasty, the daughter-in-law had to serve tea to her parents-in-law on the second day of the wedding, but a maid came early in the morning to tell Hua Zheng that she did not need to follow this rule.
Li Ping knew her son's strength. After a night, the two daughters-in-law would not be able to get up unless they were ferocious beasts, and she did not want to embarrass them.
…
At noon, Temujin invited Qiu Chuji to dine alone.
"Taoist Master Qiu, is there immortality in this world?" Temujin asked directly.
Qiu Chuji shook off the dust and said: "Great Khan, there are ways to maintain health in this world, but there is no medicine for immortality. The emperors of Qin and Han, who worked hard for the people and lost money, weren't they also those who died in pursuit of immortality?"
After hearing this, Temujin sighed: "Everyone cherishes the memory of wealth and wealth in the world and hopes for eternal life, but I have never seen one since ancient times. I don't have much hope for immortality. I just feel that there are many things to do. But there is more than enough ambition but not enough strength.
It would be great if Taoist Master Qiu could teach me some health-preserving methods, I really need them! "
After hearing this, Qiu Chuji smiled and said, "That's okay. People regard food as their top priority. Grains, vegetables, fish and meat are all necessary for maintaining health. However, eating without seeking satiety is beneficial to health. Purifying desires and being at peace with the situation is the way to maintain health."
"In addition, sexual intercourse is the first of all evils, and you must not indulge in lust. Although sex cannot be completely abstained from, if you can control it, you will be very close to the Tao.
God is the son and Qi is the mother. When Qi is strong, you are strong; when Qi is weak, you are depressed. When qi is dispersed, spirit is dispersed, spirit and qi are in the same body, and the essence is from the same source. If you don't get close to women in January, go to bed early and get up early, you will feel refreshed and your muscles and bones will be strong. Instead of taking medicine to maintain your health, it is better to sleep well. As the saying goes: it is better to take medicine for a thousand days than to sleep alone for one night.
The most important thing in cultivating longevity is neutrality. With the balance of yin and yang, all things can grow and accumulate. Be careful not to be overjoyed or angry to harm the body. Worrying too much will harm the qi. If you are motivated by lust, you must understand the truth behind the false body and the true spirit. ..."
Temujin was thoughtful after hearing this. At his age, every time he went to the harem to pamper his concubines, he would only be happy at first, but then he would feel weak.
"Dahan, do you want to maintain your health?" Qiu Chuji asked.
Temujin smiled and said, "It's a lie to say you don't want to."
Qiu Chuji continued: "Then you need to do this: cultivate yourself internally and cultivate virtue externally. Respecting heaven and loving the people is the first priority. All things are born due to Tao and are nourished by virtue. You must not kill indiscriminately. Use great virtue to determine the world. This will be done. Prolong life.
In the past, Wan Yanyong, Emperor Shizong of the Jin Dynasty, indulged in excessive sexual activities. Pindao taught him this technique, and after he used it according to his instructions, his body recovered as before, and he died after reigning for 30 years.
Of course, this is where my health regimen lies. Whether I do it or not is up to the Khan to decide. "
After hearing this, Temujin remained silent for a long time before raising his hand and saying, "Thank you, Master, for clarifying my doubts."
Qiu Chuji laughed, stood up and left.
After Qiu Chuji left, Temujin took out a cloud pattern elixir from his arms and looked at it carefully.
"If there is no elixir of life in this world, what is it?"
"Father Khan, if we capture the Kingdom of Jin in the future, will we give preferential treatment to the Quanzhen Sect?" Tuo Lei asked.
"No need, he is telling lies!" Temujin said firmly.
The facts are right in front of you, there is nothing left to distinguish.
"yes!"
After thinking for a while, Temujin took out a book from the box next to his seat.
"Don't Guo Jing like to practice martial arts? Recently, Tantric Buddhism gave me a copy of "Dragon and Elephant Prajna Kung Fu". Go give it to him and tell him by the way, if he doesn't understand, just ask the monks directly."
"yes."
…
In the logistics camp, Guo Jing was pushing the two ladies through the blood. It was obvious that all three were unskilled, which led to some bad things happening.
"Prince-in-law, Mr. Xin, the envoy of the Song Dynasty, wants to see you." Someone announced outside.
Guo Jing quickly covered the ladies with clothes, and then asked the little yellow cat next to him who was grinning and laughing to help keep an eye on them before going out to receive the guests.
"Brother Guo, congratulations on your wedding, may you be together for a hundred years and be united forever." Xin Qiji clasped his fists and bowed.
Guo Jing smiled and thanked him.
On such a special day as a wedding, it is a touching thing to have friends come from all the way to congratulate you.
"Master Xin, aren't you in charge of the Northern Expedition? How come you have time to congratulate me?" Guo Jing then asked curiously.
Xin Qiji sighed and spoke eloquently.
When the Song Dynasty was defeated, they naturally thought of the old way: peace talks.
Xiaoshan County Magistrate Fang Xiru served as a negotiator sent by the Song Dynasty. Not only was he eloquent, but he was also unyielding in front of the Jin people. The Jin people threw him into prison, deprived him of food and drink, threatened him with beheading, and required him to agree to the five conditions proposed by the Jin Dynasty, including ceding land, paying compensation, and delivering the chief conspirator. , neither agreed.
In August of this year, when Han Kanwei heard Fang Xiru report the four conditions proposed by the Jin people, including cutting off the Huaihe River and increasing the age of coins, he saw that he was hesitant to speak.
Han Kanwei asked: "What else?"
Fang Xiru: "I dare not say."
Under Han Kanwei's questioning, Fang Xinyu had no choice but to tell the truth: "I want the Grand Master's head."
Han Kanwei was furious after hearing this. With a little more land and a little more money, Han Kanwei could retreat a little, but there was no way out in the last one.
Han Kanwei was angry with Fang Xiru, and deprived Fang Xiru of his third rank, and demoted him to live in the Linjiang Army. He, Xin Qiji, was also sent as an envoy for peace talks, hoping that Dameng would provide reinforcements.
Before coming, as far as he knew, someone in the court had already conspired to kill Han Kanwei and send his head to the Jin Dynasty. But Zhao Kuo's attitude was uncertain.
After hearing this reality, the two looked at each other and fell silent.
Is there any sense of loyalty to such a monarch?
"Reporting to the Prince Consort, Li Sheng, the elder of the Beggar Clan, Cheng Yaojia, the eldest daughter of the Cheng family, and the owner of the Lujiazhuang want to see you."
Guo Jing:......
Is this an appointment to have dinner?
…
