After learning that Qin Sheng had come back in time and the wedding could be held normally, Lu Desheng felt relieved. He went out with his hands behind his back and strolled around the yard. Then he felt something was wrong. Are there too few guests? He sent out so many invitations!
Taking a closer look, I found that there were very few officials from the DPRK and Central Government. After counting, there were less than ten.
After discovering this phenomenon, Lu Desheng couldn't help but wonder, was his popularity in the court that bad? To make them lose face? Or is the news that he is about to fall out of favor known?
These bastards, none of them came to marry his daughter today, he was so angry!
Waiting, he went to get a small notebook and wrote down everyone who dared not give him face.
While the emperor was still here, he had to let this out. Otherwise, I will probably have to hold it in from now on. Lu Desheng felt uncomfortable thinking that the fourth prince would ascend the throne in the future. He was going from a favorite to a marginalized figure. The gap was so big that he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to adapt.
The steward in charge of registering the gifts saw that his master had a strange look on his face, and quickly told him that although many of the adults in the court did not come, they all sent congratulatory gifts.
Moreover, the housekeepers from various houses who came to give gifts pulled him and told him to tell Mr. Lu that their master was sick and could not come to the Lu family, but he could not go to the Xie family either.
After listening, Lu Desheng said:...
"What's wrong with them?"
Steward: "Diarrhea."
"Is it okay to not come if you have diarrhea? He just has diarrhea by himself. Doesn't he have a wife or son? Why don't they come?"
"The stewards said that the whole family had diarrhea and their legs were weak and they couldn't come."
Lu Desheng finally had nothing to say. Well, the Croton in Chang'an City is probably a few cents more expensive today.
After hearing these explanations, Lu Desheng decided to forget it because they didn't come to Lu's house or Xie's house. He was happy when he thought that the Xie family's wedding banquet was deserted and the guests were sparse.
In fact, these ministers did not come. In addition to not wanting to stand in line, there was another reason. The emperor had not been in court for a long time, and news of his serious illness was vaguely spread. They did not want to attract the emperor's attention at this moment. That is to say, Lu De was victorious, favored, and went to the palace every day to attend to the sick, bah, accompany him, so he dared to hold a wedding banquet in such an atmosphere!
Lu Desheng returned to the main hall with his hands behind his back.
Messenger: "Come, come, the groom is here, the groom has walked through the door."
Lu Songli came to say goodbye to her parents.
"Mom and Dad, my daughter is getting married today. You must take good care of yourselves when your daughter is no longer with you." Lu Songli knelt down to Lu Desheng and Jiang, and thanked them for their upbringing along with the original owner's share. Well, the feeling of maintenance.
"Get up, get up." Lu Desheng and Mrs. Jiang stepped forward to help her up at the same time. Mrs. Jiang's eyes were red. After Lu Desheng helped her up, she turned away and wiped away her tears.
"The groom has arrived at the second door!"
Official media urged them to hijab the bride.
Lu Desheng took the new red hijab that was stacked aside, and when he put it on her, he told her, "If you are unhappy in the Qin family from now on, just come back and live here. This will always be your home."
These words were heard by Qin Sheng who had just stepped into the courtyard. He exited and re-entered?
Next, Qin Sheng, the groom, needs to salute his father-in-law and mother-in-law before taking away the bride.
Qin Sheng took a deep breath, then lifted up his robe, knelt on the ground, and bowed down in the same way, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, please feel free to leave Ah Li to me. I will treat her well in the future, love her, and cherish her."
Lu Songli had a hijab on her head, and when he knelt down, she finally saw what he looked like now.
He couldn't hide the fatigue on his face. Fortunately, he had good looks and didn't look ugly.
Lu Songli calculated that he set off directly after returning from their Lu family on the day of his appointment, which was the sixth day of the lunar month. It can be said that he spent nine days on horses. He also fought fiercely for a day with a group of Qiang and Hu soldiers who had broken off the rear in Baihe Town, wiping out more than a hundred enemies.
She heard it and thought it was awesome. After all, there are not many Qiang and Hu soldiers entering Dali, they must all be elite. Only because Qin Sheng is young and in good health can he be able to bear the burden, otherwise many people will simply fall out of exhaustion.
Suffering makes you mature. He looks a little bit like a little man now. Before, he was a high-spirited young man who was favored by his family.
Lu Songli looked at it, feeling a little uncomfortable. Growing up was painful.
Everything that followed was led by Qin Sheng, and she could just follow Mo Bing's prompts.
Back at Qin's house, Qin Sheng took the bow and arrow handed over by the boy and shot three arrows in a row, towards the sky, the earth, and into the distance. After shooting three arrows, Qin Sheng took the bride off the sedan chair, stepped over the brazier, and worshiped in the hall...
Worship to heaven and earth, bow to the high hall, the husband and wife bow to each other, and finally the ceremony is completed!
When worshiping in the high hall, Mrs. Qin forced a smile. She had already learned about Qin Ming's death and had gone to the side hall to see his remains. She was currently hiding it from Nie Yunniang because she was about to give birth and was afraid that she would be frightened if she found out.
After completing all the procedures, you are sent to the bridal chamber.
Mrs. Qin found an opportunity to tell them, "You are still young. Wait until after the New Year, when you are sixteen, to consummate your marriage."
Qin Sheng:......
Lu Songli lowered his head.
"Anyway, you are obedient." Mrs. Qin and her youngest daughter-in-law and son were embarrassed to say this, and left quickly after saying this.
In fact, even if Mrs. Qin didn't tell him, they wouldn't do anything. Don't forget, their fourth brother's coffin is still in the side hall, and there is no funeral or burial.
Northern Territory, Zhuanglang
Qianghu Guanzhai was tightly surrounded by Qin Yue's army.
This area had obviously just gone through several battles. The corpses lying on the ground were those of Qiang and Hu people, as well as those of Dali soldiers. The snow was stained red with blood, and the smell of blood spread far and wide.
Bu Chang, the Qiang and Hu leader, hid in the official stronghold and shouted outside, "Qin Yue, let me tell you news. How about you withdraw your troops?" He was really scared. In the past, when several of their tribes collaborated, he didn't think Qin Yue was scary. Now that he was driving him to fight, it really hurt. After several battles, more than half of his Qiang and Hu warriors were killed.
Dali replied, "Unless you hand over the prince, we vow not to retreat!"
Bu Chang jumped to his feet, "I told you, we don't have your Dali prince in our clan!" He regretted that he shouldn't have sent people to kidnap and kill the prince for the food, salt and iron. Even if he did, he shouldn't have Take action right then and there. Now that it's fine, Qin Yue obviously won't withdraw his troops if he can't get the prince.
Every one of the soldiers of Beijing Army maintained an offensive posture.
"Hand over the prince!"
There was suddenly no movement in the official village.
Qin Yan was a little disappointed. After the fight, wouldn't Bu Chang hand over the prince?
"General, do you want to continue fighting?"
Qin Yue waved his sword, "Continue to attack!"
The horn of the attack sounded, and an angry voice suddenly sounded in the official village, "Qin Yue, I tell you the truth, the prince is dead, the prince has been dead a long time ago!"
When Qin Yan heard this, he looked at his father in horror.
Because of these words, the northern army also caused some commotion.
Only Qin Yue remained unmoved and said without even blinking, "Get ready to attack! Whoever kills Bu Chang will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins!"
Qin Yan: Has his father guessed it a long time ago?
As the attack horn sounded, Qin Yue took the lead and rushed over.
crazy! Bu Chang cursed in a low voice, and then his wild nature was aroused, and he led the tribal warriors to meet them.
A fight began.
More than an hour later, as night fell, the fighting was over. Bu Chang was killed, and all his generals were slaughtered. The people in the Qiang and Hu official strongholds died and fled...
It is conceivable that the Qiang and Hu people will not be able to recover in less than ten years. At least in these ten years, they will not be able to become a climate, and they will not be able to harm the cities on the border of Dali.
The Northern General also paid a very heavy price. Not to mention the soldiers who died in this battle, the general Qin Yue was seriously injured trying to kill Bu Chang.
The surviving northern generals, those who still had strength, were slowly cleaning up the battlefield.
Qin Yue lay on the ground simply paved with horse leather.
Qin Yan untied his father's scratched armor, tore open his blood-stained clothes, and sprinkled the hemostatic gold sore medicine in his hand onto the wound. His hands were shaking as he sprinkled the medicine.
"Dad, you can obviously dodge that knife. It's only a matter of time before you capture Bu Chang. There's no need to use such a life-for-life strategy!"
Qin Yue smiled and said, "Second brother, you are right, but how long will it take? How many soldiers will have to sacrifice?"
"General!"
"Master Hou!"
All the soldiers fell to their knees.
Only then did Qin Yan dare to believe that his father wanted to die. "Dad, why?"
"The prince died in Beijing, and someone must be responsible for it. This is what my Qin family told the emperor!" He is Qin Yue. As the commander-in-chief of the northern territory, he is the only one who has died and has made his merits unjust. Only by apologizing to death can we give an explanation to the Song royal family, the court, and the world. Only when he dies can he shoulder most of the responsibility, and then the rest of the Qin family can survive.
"Someone is responsible. It is obvious that the Qiang and Hu people who killed the prince are Qiang and Hu. We have taken the head of the Qiang and Hu leader Bu Chang. Isn't that enough to explain?" The real murderer of the prince is obviously someone else. Why should we let him? Is their Qin family responsible?
Qin Yan followed his father, and this time he attacked the Qiang and Hu tribes. He worked harder and harder than ever before, just to rescue the prince. Having just learned that the prince was dead, his only thought was to exterminate the Qiang and Hu clan and take Bu Chang's head to make up for his merits.
"Silly son, guarding the border is the duty of my Qin family." It is necessary to resist the invasion of foreign tribes and win the battle.
"It's not like this, it can't be like this."
"Second brother, dad will leave the rest to you. Do you know how to write a battle report?" The blood on Qin Yue's body kept flowing, and his voice gradually weakened. Well, it's a bit cold in the snow tonight.
Qin Yan shook his head, "Dad, I don't understand, I don't understand." So, don't die.
"Ayan is very smart, and dad believes in you. If you have a chance to meet Xiaoliu's wife, thank her for dad." Qin Yue finished speaking with a smile, and then looked into the distance, which is the direction of Chang'an City.
Today is the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, a good day for his youngest son to get married, but it's a pity that he can't see it. He didn't want to do this today, but he couldn't delay it any longer.
In the original work, Qin Yue, Qin Ming, and Qin Yan all died in this conspiracy. When Qin Ming led his team in the wild, they encountered Qiang and Hu elites who came to kidnap and kill the prince. Qin Ming wanted to save the prince, so he bit them and was killed. Qin Yan was defeated and sacrificed in the battle to capture Buchang, and was run away by Buchang. Qin Yue later realized the conspiracy of the fourth prince, and then personally led his troops to attack Bu Chang and the Qiang and Hu tribes, and finally died to apologize.
Lu Songli's reminder made Qin Yue first aware of the fourth prince's conspiracy. After weighing the pros and cons, he finally went into battle in person to encircle Bu Chang and avoid Qin Yan's sacrifice.
