"Ms. Zhuge!" Yang Qing couldn't help but exclaimed after seeing the woman's appearance clearly.羠
At this time, Zhuge Qiao walked up to him and explained with a smile: "Guo'er missed you, so you came with us." After saying that, he looked at him deeply.
Yang Qing didn't notice Zhuge Qiao's meaningful eyes, nodded and said with a smile, "That's it." He stepped forward and said to Zhuge Guo, "Ms. Zhuge is here, the prime minister doesn't know how happy he should be."
Zhuge Guo smiled calmly and said, "Yang Junhou, long time no see."
"We haven't seen each other for several months. Madam Zhuge must be tired from the journey." Yang Qing turned to Zhuge Qiao and said, "Bosong, everyone must be tired. Let's go back to the city first."
"No, Guo'er and I will go to the camp to see you first, and then we won't go into the city."
Yang Qing nodded and said, "That's right, then I won't keep you."
After that, everyone dispersed. Zhuge Qiao, Zhuge Guo, Huo Yi, and Han Chong led the sergeants to the government camp, while Yang Qing and others entered Mianyang County.羠
Looking at Yang Qing's leaving figure, Zhuge Qiao shook his head and sighed softly: "Oh, Guo'er, now I regret telling you that Ming's brother is going to marry Madam Xiahou, and I didn't know to bring you here." Is Hanzhong right or wrong? Ming's brother's marriage is a foregone conclusion. I can only say that you and him are destined to have no connection in this life. "
It turned out that not long ago, Zhuge Qiao learned from Wu Gao that Yang Qing was going to marry Xia Houyue in Hanzhong. He knew his sister's affection for Yang Qing, so he thought about it for a long time and finally told Zhuge Guo about it.
Zhuge Guo was silent for a long time after hearing this. He didn't eat dinner and returned to his room to stay all night.
The next day, she told Zhuge Qiao that she would go to Hanzhong to meet Yang Qing and tell Yang Qing clearly what she had always wanted to say but never said, so that she would not regret it for the rest of her life.
Zhuge Qiao didn't know how to persuade her, so he had to say goodbye to Huang Yueying on the basis of her reason of going to Hanzhong to visit Zhuge Liang. Unexpectedly, he met Wu Que, Xia Houyue and the others on the road. Although he felt awkward, he had to go together.
"Brother, don't worry. Guo'er just came to see him. If I don't say some words, I'm afraid I will regret it for the rest of my life. But don't worry, brother, I won't disturb his marriage. After I finish saying what's in my heart, Guo'er will Return to Chengdu."
In fact, to avoid worrying Zhuge Qiao and her parents, she still had one thing she didn't say, that is, after returning to Chengdu, she would live in seclusion behind closed doors, devote herself to practicing Taoism, and would no longer be involved in matters involving men and women.羠
Zhuge Qiao sighed and said, "That's good. Let's get over it as soon as possible and go back and slowly forget about it. The world is so big and there are so many talented young people. We Yue'er will eventually find our perfect match."
After a pause, he added, "Let's go see the adults."
Yang Qing and Xia Houyue are not yet married, so it is difficult for them to live together, so Yang Qing is looking for a house next to his own mansion as a place for Xia Houyue and her aunt to stay.
After they settled down, Yang Qing left Mulan here to take care of her because of official duties. He left first and planned to come back to talk in the evening.
"Wei Zhonglang, who is this?" In the study, Yang Qing looked at the middle-aged scribe beside Wei Min who he seemed to have seen before and asked.
In the afternoon, he had just returned from inspecting the county army barracks when he saw Wei Min visiting, bringing an important person with him.
Wei Min replied: "So that the princes and princes will know that this is Guo Zifan, the secretary of the Prime Minister's Office. He is also the former deputy captain of my Youwei Mansion. He is responsible for special espionage matters."
Yang Qing secretly said that sure enough, he had already guessed that Guo Mo was a wandering guard, but he didn't expect that he was actually a deputy captain with an important position.
"Should that person be called Guo Jun, Guo Jiji, or should he be called Vice Principal Guo?" Yang Qing nodded and asked with a smile.
Guo Mo cupped his hands and said, "Just ask me, Guo Mo."
"Your identity as a wandering guard should remain a secret. Let's call it Guo Jishi." Yang Qing made an invitation gesture: "You two, please sit down and talk."
After the three of them were seated, Yang Qing asked, "Wei Zhonglang, do you and Guo Ji's office have any business today?"
"Your Majesty Mingjian, I came here this time to ask for something." Wei Min replied with cupped hands.
Yang Qingdao: "Zhonglang only cares about
He said, you and I are also old friends. If you can help, Yang will be obliged. "羠
"Your Majesty, I would like to thank you in advance." Wei Min stood up, bowed his hands, sat down and continued: "Your Majesty, Vice Colonel Guo is about to carry out an important task, but his current status in the Prime Minister's Office is a little strange. It’s appropriate, so Min wants to transfer Vice Colonel Guo to serve in the Hanzhong County of Junhou.”
"This matter is easy. The Prime Minister's Office will issue an order, and I, Hanzhong County, will handle it." Yang Qing agreed.
Wei Min smiled and said, "Not only that, Vice Captain Guo will be ordered to defect to Shen Yi, the prefect of Wei Xing in Cao Wei, so we have to trouble the prince to cooperate with us in putting on a show."
"I see, we are all loyal to the country, so why bother? Zhonglang, please tell me, what should I do with Yang?"
Wei Min said: "The king only needs to be like this..."
At night, after Yang Qing finished his official duties, he came to the house where Xia Houyue and the others lived to have dinner together.
"Are Madam and Yueniang still getting used to living together? If there is anything missing, just tell me and I will let them take care of it." Yang Qing put down the chopsticks in his hand and asked with concern.羠
He rented this house, hired a few maids and servants, and added some furniture and items. There should be no problem in housing a few people.
Mrs. Xiahou said: "Let the Lord worry about it. This house is elegant and quiet. We like it very much."
"Brother Yang, this place is already very good, nothing is missing." Xia Houyue also said quickly.
Yang Qing smiled and said: "That's good, but even though we are only staying temporarily for a period of time, we still have to live comfortably."
What he meant was that Xia Houyue could move to his mansion after marrying him. Xia Houyue and Mrs. Xiahou were both smart people, so they naturally understood the meaning of this. Suddenly a blush appeared on Xia Houyue's face, and Mrs. Xiahou also looked at the two of them and smiled.
After dinner, the three of them drank tea and talked in the pavilion again. Yang Qing said to Mrs. Xiahou: "By the way, madam, the eighth day of next month is a good day to get married. Qing wants to arrange his marriage to Yueniang on this day. What do you think of that day?"
"Ah." Xia Houyue whispered after hearing this, picked up the teapot and ran out with a blushing face: "Yueer, go and add some water."
Mrs. Xiahou said with a smile: "Although Yue'er has a strong side, she is a woman who has not left the court after all. She is shy after hearing about her marriage. You must not laugh at her."
"This...I understand."
Mrs. Xiahou continued: "The eighth day of the next lunar month will be very good. If you get married early, I, the aunt, will feel relieved."
It is now the twenty-fourth of July, and there are only fourteen days left before the eighth day of August. For court ministers like Yang Qing, the etiquette is quite rushed.
Yang Qing said: "Madam, don't worry. Although I have already told Yueniang to keep everything simple, the due etiquette will not be lacking. Qing will not wrong Yueniang."
"In this case, it all depends on your arrangement." Mrs. Xiahou said with satisfaction.
The next day, Yang Qing began to prepare for his marriage. Weddings in the Han Dynasty also had six rituals: nacai, name asking, naji, nazheng, asking for date, and welcoming in person. Although Yang Qing and Xia Houyue agreed to keep everything simple, these six rituals would not be omitted.羠
Since ancient times, marriage matters have required the help of a matchmaker. To complete the six rites, a matchmaker needs to be involved. Therefore, Yang Qing is going to go to Fuying and ask Ma Su to be the matchmaker. Ma Su is a good talker and is his good friend, so he is the most suitable matchmaker.
