Lin Mansion is full of joy today, everything is red, the beams are hung with red satin, the windows are embroidered with double happiness, and people who come to congratulate are constantly coming in with gifts wrapped in red silk.
At the wine banquet, Gao Chongguang raised his head and took a sip of wine: "Damn it, seeing Lin Qingti become the minister, marrying a high-ranking female official, and getting married to the Ministry of War, it would be more uncomfortable to cut off one's head than to kill me!"
Gao Dexiang on the side heard this and immediately slapped him on the head: "You bastard! Be careful what you say on this big day!"
Gao Chongguang was beaten, and Gao Chongguang was angry. He was about to show off his ventriloquism skills, but out of the corner of his eye he saw two familiar figures approaching slowly not far away.
The Qian'er Qian'er's expression immediately became aggrieved, and there seemed to be an invisible tail behind his butt that shook like a propeller: "Your Majesty, you are here!"
Yun Yaoyao and Tu Shanjin sat on the main seats, indicating that you don't need to be polite.
The two little ones behind them sat next to them, one on the left and the other on the right. They looked young and mature, which made the ministers feel strange.
Estimating the time, the groom should still be on his way to welcome the bride, and everyone continued drinking and chatting.
Qi Jian, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, was the first to couldn't help but sigh: "In the past few years, the Ministry of Industry has been busy with various construction matters. As a minister, I am also very busy, but I haven't been so comfortable for a long time."
Gao Dexiang raised his glass and answered: "Master Qi is busy with the real matters of people's livelihood and the country. Over the years, whether it is the glass for windows, the exquisite spinning wheel, or the cement that has brought about earth-shaking changes in building construction, as well as the protective The cotton that people all over the world use to survive the cold winter is all thanks to adults!”
Hearing the achievements in the past few years, Qi Jian couldn't help but smile with relief: "Everywhere, everything depends on Your Majesty and Your Majesty!"
"In terms of contribution, Mr. Gao is still very powerful. He selects talents and appoints capable people. He assists His Majesty in rectifying the government and the public so that corruption is eliminated. Only when the government is clean and harmonious can everything run smoothly!"
Gao Dexiang waved his hand quickly: "I don't dare, I say, it is Mr. Zhou who is so powerful and so sharp that Yan Chi's treasury is so rich, otherwise how could the people enjoy the benefit of being exempted from taxes for three consecutive years!"
Zhou Siren was very pleased with the praise, and while pushing the fruit plate in front of the tiger wife beside him, he said modestly: "You sirs are joking, the treasury is rich, in the final analysis, your majesty is courageous, I just play the role of appropriating funds and saving money! "
"Master Yan and Master Di are still amazing. One Ministry of Punishment and one Dali Temple have managed the social atmosphere so well. Those who commit crimes are becoming rarer and rarer. People don't pick up things on the street. The administration is simple and the punishment is clean!"
Yan Qinghong raised his head and smiled sadly: "Jie, Jie, Jie, Master Ning is still the best..."
"No, Master Gao is awesome..."
"General Long is awesome..."
"Commander Fang is amazing..."
"Yu Shi Ni is amazing..."
Everyone was just pushing and shoving each other around. During the banquet, it was nothing more than people gathering in a group and flattering each other, commonly known as bragging.
After blowing to the back, the courtiers came to a conclusion.
When it comes to being powerful, no one can compare to Your Majesty and Your Majesty!
That's the most amazing thing!
In six years, Yan Chi has been led into the prosperous age he is today!
It's true that they are working hard as courtiers, but Your Majesty and Your Majesty are the ones who really put in the hard work!
You see, even if they took time out of their busy schedules to attend the wedding banquet of their ministers, your majesty and your empress would get together seriously, with serious faces, discussing important matters of the country!
Yun Yaoyao and Tu Shanjin were indeed discussing national affairs, discussing who would get up early to go to court next month.
In fact, Tu Shanjin didn't think it was difficult to get up early to go to court. He was willing to go to court early every day, three hundred and sixty-five days a year, but he was more willing to fool around with Yao'er at this moment.
"Okay, how to bet?" Tu Shanjin asked with a smile.
Yun Yaoyao's eyes fell on a certain courtier who was drinking alone not far away, and said softly: "Bet on how many gulps he could finish the glass of wine in his hand. I lost the morning court last month."
Tu Shanjin: "Okay, I'll bet on even numbers."
Yun Yaoyao: "Then I'll bet on the odd number."
Two pairs of eyes were fixed on the minister. The minister looked over as if sensing something, and suddenly met the eyes of the two men above him. He was so frightened that he trembled and quickly lowered his head, sipping the wine in his glass to cover it up. Awkward and cramped.
Yun Yaoyao chuckled: "I won."
Tu Shanjin pretended to be disappointed: "I lost, but Yao'er is still better."
The two continued to look for their next bet target.
Tushan Suimin and Tushan Tokiwa on the side have long been accustomed to this kind of scene.
In the eyes of others, the father and mother are: powerful, majestic and noble, working hard for the people!
The father and mother in the two little eyes: not too sensible, a little naive, working hard just for early retirement!
Forget it, the father, the emperor, and the empress want to retire as soon as possible. What else can the two of them do as children? Pamper me.
Work hard quietly, and then surprise your father, queen and mother.
Thinking of this, the two little ones looked at Niu Xiuer and Xiao Wuzi who were waiting beside them.
The two understood immediately.
Niu Xiuer held a child's spear in her left hand and a history book in her right hand. She smiled innocently: "What do you want, princess?"
Xiao Wuzi held a child's bow and arrow in his left hand, a military book in his right hand, and a sword hanging on his waist. He smiled fondly: "Which one do you want, Your Highness?"
The two little ones took the book in unison, held it and started reading.
Without him, wouldn’t those who wield swords and guns at other people’s weddings be here to cause trouble?
The banquet was still a joyful one.
Next to the important ministers in the court is where the female officials are.
The camp of female officials is now a force that cannot be underestimated in the court. A group of people sit at several tables. The former seductress has now transformed into a pioneer of female officials, and is ranked as the first female official alongside Ning Ying.
Guan Wanyu chatted and laughed happily with the female officials, and acted calmly. Faced with the banter of several ministers, she had the confidence to laugh and talk back.
Further away, there are merchants sitting at a table.
Today's merchants are not the lowest status among scholars, farmers, industry and merchants many years ago, but people who can make people give thumbs up and envy.
Not long after the new emperor came to power, he encouraged the development of commerce. Later, the construction of the North-South Grand Canal ushered in a great prosperity and explosion of commerce along the road.
Emperor Zheming and Queen Furui actively carried out trade with neighboring countries, developed ports to the sea, and encouraged overseas trade. Yanchi's commercial prosperity reached its peak.
Two of the emperor's generals, Pei Qianhuo, the best businessman in the world, and Hua Buqing, the best ship merchant in the world, played an immeasurable role!
At the wine banquet, Pei Qianhuo raised his glass to the flowers and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Brother Hua, how are you doing lately? I wanted to visit you several times, but was told that you were sailing to the sea again. This time I finally returned to the capital. Will you stay a little longer?"
"Brother Pei is also a busy man, isn't he? Now I'm afraid only Your Majesty and the Empress can have an appointment with you." Hua Bufang smiled, raised his glass to touch him, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp, the spicy wine flowing down his throat. Next, my chest felt hot.
"In addition to attending Lin Shangshu's wedding banquet, I returned to the capital this time to hand over all matters within Yan Chi to the people below."
Hua Bufang looked far away: "From now on, I will officially set sail, sailing on the ship with the surname Hua, to see the splendid and prosperous countries in the distance. I hope that I can have the pleasure of seeing the whole world in my lifetime." "
Pei Qianhuo laughed: "Okay, I will prepare a banquet then and welcome you back after Brother Hua becomes the first person to see the world with his eyes open!
Hearty and wanton laughter spread from every table, and everyone present was in high spirits and enjoying themselves.
Either they are infected by the joy of others' weddings, or they are satisfied with the current situation and have hope for the future, or they feel confident and happy because of the country's strength and prosperity.
At this time, the festive music sounded, adding a touch of enthusiasm and joy to the atmosphere at this moment.
Everyone looked towards the source of the sound.
I saw the bride in her wedding dress, who was as beautiful as fire, and the groom in his red robe, his youth and splendor, slowly walking towards this direction.
When they arrived at the worship hall, all the ministers and guests gathered around, unable to suppress the smiles on their lips. How should I put it, in addition to sincere blessings and congratulations, there was also a sense of humor in watching an acquaintance go through the process.
Ning Shouli, who was sitting in the seat, couldn't help but get wet when he saw his daughter getting married. But thinking that his colleagues at the same level would have to respectfully call him father-in-law from now on, he held back the tears that were about to fall.
Don't tell me, it's so happy.
When the auspicious moment arrived, the best man began to shout.
"Worship heaven and earth!"
"Two thanks to Gaotang!"
"Couple greetings!"
"Send it in..." the best man's voice lengthened, and a smile bloomed at the corner of his mouth, "Bridal chamber!!"
