Prepare dowry

Everyone can't help but be surprised. Yufu is the female gentleman of Beili. Isn't her dowry prepared by the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs

Does Gu Huaijiang have to prepare another copy

Yu Fuyi said: "General, the dowry is not necessary. Would you like to prepare it or send it to the mansion?"

"The dowry I prepared for you is naturally for you, and will not be sent back to the mansion again."

Gu Huaijiang slowly said: "Your current status, naturally you cannot marry according to the usual etiquette. After you get married, you must still live in the palace, and you can't count the marriage. It's a confession that you must live in the palace after you get married. Fu's dowry was also sent to the palace."

"There is also a betrothal gift, which is naturally prepared to be sent to the palace."

Everyone was stunned, not knowing that Gu Huaijiang was playing an idea.

Every marriage and marriage are counted as people in the Guhou Mansion. Gu Huaijiang has to prepare the wedding gift and dowry, but all of them are sent to the palace. Doesn't this mean that all the Gu family's property is sent to the palace

In the past, there was a saying of ten miles of red makeup in the city of Lin'an to marry a daughter, saying that people in a wealthy country regarded half of the family's wealth as their daughter's dowry.

With Gu Huaijiang's love for Yufu, I'm afraid that half of the family wealth for the dowry will be considered less.

Yufu glanced at Gu Shubai, making him wince to dissuade Gu Huaijiang, Gu Shubai just smiled and did not speak.

Yufu looks after Gu Hanmo again. Gu Hanmo has not yet married his wife, and now he is using all of the Gu family wealth for their marriage. What will happen when Gu Hanmo, Gu Wenqing and Gu Xiang get their wives

Gu Hanmo didn't move, and even Gu Wenqing and Gu Xiang didn't even mean to object.

Yufu was anxious, "General, how can there be a reason to prepare a dowry and a betrothal gift? When the family moved to Beili last year, many of the properties in Dongling were not taken away, and the family was not rich. You are like this now. In the future, the third, fourth, and fifth brothers will get married. What if they don’t have money?"

Gu Huaijiang glanced at Gu Hanmo and the others in a bit of surprise.

Gu Hanmo: "..."

When Yufu came, they were no longer their biological sons.

Yufu took advantage of the situation and said: "What's more, the marriage between Ji Yu and Yun Yan was simple at the time, and the bride price and dowry were not discussed in detail. Now I and my big brother are the only ones who are taking advantage of everyone?"

Yin Jiyu hurriedly got up and said, "Yufu, don't say that. My father didn't treat us badly. I came here alone. Not only did my father give me a lot of money and don't dislike it, I never feel uneasy."

Su Yunyan also said: "My second wife and I are almost the same, Yufu, don't refuse. The eldest brother is the father's eldest son, and you are the father's most beloved daughter, so you should be so."

It's all right now. Not only did Gu Hanmo and others have no objection, even Yin Jiqi and others had no objection. Yufu had no choice but to persuade Gu Huaijiang.

Gu Shubai embraced her lightly, "Father, please don't refuse."

Gu Huaijiang’s intentions are always irresistible. One shot is either bird's nest and shark fin precious tonics, or a rare piece of art such as Qibao Yingluo, or simply a house on the edge of the West Lake...

Yufu pursed his lips and smiled, feeling inexplicably, "Thank you General."

For Yufu's marriage, the DPRK and China had a heated discussion for a long time.

Knowing that Gu Huaijiang also came here specially for Yufu's wedding, a minister in the DPRK suggested that Gu Huaijiang should be appointed a military commander. If the former East Spirit War God can stay in Beili, wouldn't it be easier to unify the great cause of Kyushu

Yufu directly rejected the proposal. She knew that it was not easy for Gu Huaijiang to come to Beili to come to the capital, so how could she grant him a court position again

In his heart, he will always be a Dongling, and will not accept foreign officials to be appointed as a nobleman, no matter how high the glory is.

The DPRK again discussed the official position of Gu Shubai. It is said that he had just been named a general after coming back from this big victory. He was a military commander in the DPRK second only to General Ouyang.

He was so young that he couldn't get past General Ouyang, who was a soldier of Bei Li, right

But as Wang Fu, if there is no reward, it can't be justified.

At the moment of embarrassment, Ouyang Qi voluntarily requested a demotion, intending to cede the post of general to Gu Shubai.

"Your Majesty, the minister is not young, and he was forced to fight in the past and suffered injuries. Nowadays, there are talents to come out. Everyone sees the ability of General Gu, and the minister is willing to surrender to this post."

Without waiting for the courtiers to discuss it, Yufu still directly refused, "General Ouyang need not say any more, I will not agree to this matter. You will be a soldier of Beili for life, if you say that I can title you a knight and go home for peace. But I know that you still have a heart to serve the court, and you are still reluctant to leave the battlefield. In that case, how can I bear to strip your position?"

Ouyang Qiyuan just wanted to give Yu a step down, and instead of making her embarrassingly remove her position, it was better to take the initiative to resign.

He didn't want Yufu to refuse without even thinking about it, which was far beyond his expectation.

Above the golden palace, Yu stood up and cut the railway: "I said when I just returned to Beili, I will repay the courtiers who made sacrifices and contributions to Beili. General Gu's talents are indeed outstanding, but he can't get past Ouyang. The contributions of the generals in the past. If I let you live under others and others don’t talk about it, I will feel ungrateful! Like General Ouyang, Taifu Bao, and Master Tiantai, who would dare to argue against them from now on I will never tolerate this matter!"

With her words, Ouyang Qi put his heart back in his stomach, and those veterans who worked for the central government saw Yufu's determination.

The cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys cook, the birds die, the good bow hides.

She has stabilized Bei Li's situation now, but she is not suspicious of the old ministers in the past, on the contrary, she is extremely honored, and no one doubts her Mingjun virtue.

Standing in the queue of courtiers, Gu Shubai raised his head and smiled at Yufu.

After leaving the dynasty, Ouyang Qi walked with Gu Shubai and subconsciously looked at his expressions. Seeing that Gu Shubai didn't look unhappy at all, I couldn't help being curious.

"I know that you are not a fame and fortune person, but you and your majesty are about to get married. The wedding didn't mention your promotion, so don't you care at all?"

"I don't care, but I'm very happy."

Ouyang Qi sighed helplessly, "No wonder your Guhou family was squeezed out by Emperor Ning in Dongling. Look at you, are there any similarities with those courtiers of Dongling? To be honest, I have worked hard for half a lifetime before I came here. I can’t do it if you ask me to put it down for a while. But your father used to be the Great General Dongling, but now he’s here in Beili, but he would rather be a white robe. I really admire and wonder."

Gu Shubai smiled and said: "My father has his father's persistence. As for my happiness, it is because I don't want to be promoted to the title through your majesty, and I don't want others to say that Gu Shubai is where I am today by a woman. I love her. I want to marry her, not because of her identity, and not because of what official position or power she can give me."

Ouyang Qi thought about it, too. When he had just been supporting Yu to Bei Li, many people were talking about his good face.

On the contrary, his appearance has become a burden. He must use his best to show his talents to others in order to get rid of the suspicion of "little white face".

Ouyang Qi said: "I knew you were thinking this way, so I didn't want to say those things at once. I thought I was a year-long friendship with you in military affairs, a confidant, and I don't want to know you enough. Fortunately, your Majesty. I just didn’t agree, otherwise, didn’t I kindly do something bad?"

Gu Shubai folded his hands and said with a smile: "It is an honor for Shubai to be cited as a confidant by General Ouyang. But the general can rest assured, I know your Majesty will not agree."

"Why is this again?"

He looked at the hall behind him. After the dynasty had been scattered, the people had already disappeared, and Yufu had already left, leaving only the golden dragon seat at the top.

His eyes were far away, and the corners of his mouth curled up with a smile, "Because she knows my heart, understands my meaning, and understands what I want."

Ouyang Qi was so old that he couldn't help but think back to his childhood, the beautiful love of youth.

Gu Shubai came back to his senses and smiled apologetically, "By the way, if General Ouyang is free, would he be willing to come to the house for a comment? My father heard about General Ouyang's name and wanted to learn together."

Ouyang Qi suddenly lit up, "I can't ask for it, please!"

The promotion was no longer discussed, but Ouyang Qi always wanted to do something for them in his own heart. After much deliberation, he finally came up with a good way.

"I invite you to stay in the city of Xinde, Beili, and exchange Gu Jiuge. After all, he is your majesty's elder brother, and if he is not in such a grand ceremony as the wedding, it would be really unsatisfactory."

Yufu was overjoyed when he heard Ouyang Qi's words. In fact, she had ordered someone to temporarily exchange Gu Jiuge back for a long time, but it was not easy to delay the country's affairs for personal affair.

Not wanting Ouyang Qi to speak up, Yufu thought for a moment and said: "How is the wound that General Ouyang opened up last year?"

"Very good, your Majesty need not worry."

Ouyang Qi smiled and said: "The minor disease of the minister's lungs has also been cured, thanks to your majesty's inviting the two medical immortals of the Immortal Valley to treat me carefully. The minister has long yearned for the land of Dongling for a long time, please allow your majesty to allow the minister to guard it. "

As he said so, Yufu had to answer.

The decree to change the main general was passed to Gu Jiuge singer, Gu Jiuge was naturally happy, and he was busy ordering people to handover matters, and packing up and returning to Beijing.

For a while, the news spread, and even within Dongling's territory, the news of Yufu's wedding was known.

In the city of Lin'an, Ning Chengzhi watched the song and dance drunkly. He was taken aback when he heard the message from the palace man. The wine glass touched his lips, but the liquor flowed from his chin to his neck.

Li Fei sat beside him, feeling distressed when she saw this, "Your Majesty, you should think of today when she leaves, don't be sad."

She took out the veil from her arms and wiped it for Ning Chengzhi, but found that not only the wine but also tears were falling down his chin.

Li Fei's hand trembled, and she was in a dilemma.

Ning Chengzhi could not be considered a good emperor, but he was the first emperor of a noble background. Even when the rebel army was about to hit Lin'an, Li Fei did not see him shed tears like this.

Today, in response to the news of Yufu's wedding, he shed tears without warning.

"Your Majesty..."

Li Fei looked sad, and couldn't help but flushed her eyes. The veil that was supposed to wipe off the wine for him in her hand turned to tears for herself.

Seeing his abnormal appearance, the palace man hurriedly waved his hand, the music stopped abruptly, and the maiko's posture also stopped turning.

"Your Majesty..." Does this dance continue

Ning Chengzhi squeezed the wine glass and stood up unsteadily, with tears in his eyes and a smile at the corners of his mouth.

The palace man hurriedly stepped forward and tried to support him, Li Fei also got up from her seat and stood behind him to protect her.

"I did something wrong, I really did something wrong. If I knew that this was the end from the beginning, it would be better to marry the two of them personally. How come it is now..."

He staggered down the steps, his voice was faint, "I was really wrong, really wrong..."

Dang Cang.

The bronze wine glass fell on the steps, turned it grunting twice, and finally fell silent and motionless. The wine in the glass has already been spilled aside, and the fragrance is overflowing—

But he can't put it back in the cup anymore.

The rebel army that retreated to the south also received news that the female monarch of Beili was married, and even the main general guarding the northern city was changed, which seemed to be an excellent opportunity.

But after careful investigation, I found out that the chief in exchange was Ouyang Qi, the most respected general in Bei Li, who was not only a veteran with many battles, but also the one who had suppressed Bei Li's internal strife with iron and blood.

Compared with such an experienced general, the rebel army became more and more like a mob, with no chance of winning.

Yin Shuo didn't care who Bei Li changed as the main general. Whether it was Gu Jiuge or Ouyang Qi, he didn't mean to enter a sneak attack.

The last time he was outside Lin'an City, Gu Shubai easily smashed all the forwards he had sent for a sneak attack. From that moment on, he knew that the rebels had no chance of winning.

Now it's just a day out.

What he cares more about is that she is getting married, and she is still Gu Shubai as expected.

He used to think that Yufu rarely saw strangers, and Gu Shubai among the only young talents around him was a top-notch. Coupled with the two people living together in the Guhou Mansion, she would be firm to him.

He had hoped that after Yufu returned to Beili, he changed his status and changed his environment, and could fall in love with other people—

Even if that person is not his Yin Shuo, as long as it is not Gu Shubai, he will be happy in his heart.

But to this day, Gu Shubai is still.

He is destined to win no more than Gu Shubai in his life, whether he was in Dongling in the past, or he is now a battalion of swordsmen...

In a trance, he saw Princess Danyang walking towards him.

She wore a red wedding dress, a nine-phoenix golden hairpin on her head, and a festive rouge on her face. "My husband is not sad. She is married to someone else, and I will marry you."

Yin Shuo didn't know if he was dreaming or whether the spirit of Princess Danyang really came back.

After he deceived and left Lin'an, he often saw Princess Danyang. Since he went back to the valley to see her tomb, she appeared more frequently.

Is this a dream or a reality

Yin Shuo didn't believe in ghosts and gods before, but now he prefers to believe that it is true, "Danyang, you are already dead, do you still want to marry me?"

"Think, if I marry you in this life, I will marry you again in my next life. But when I marry you again in my next life, you must remind me of one thing."

She took off the phoenix hairpin from her head, brought a comb from nowhere, and combed it along the waterfall-like jet black hair.

"One comb to the end, two with white hair and eyebrows, three with children and grandchildren all over the floor, four with silver bamboo shoots as well..."

She sang the song of combing her hair with a faint voice like a ghost—no, she was a ghost now, and she was no longer Princess Danyang.

She didn't know how many times she combed it, how many times she sang it, and when she looked up she smiled and said to him: "My husband must remind me in the next life, don't forget to sing the combing song, okay?"

Yin Shuo did not answer her.

The song for combing the hair was sung by Xi Niang at home on the day of the woman's wedding while combing her hair. Even if she could still marry herself in the next life, she would not be able to remind her.

Besides...he doesn't want to marry her in the next life.

Even if he couldn't marry Yufu, he didn't want to marry Danyang again.

Before she was alive, he had said too much about such cruel words, and now he only said: "Sing or not to sing the song of combing hair, it is no hindrance. You didn't mean that Kun Yuyang sang the song of combing his hair when she was married to Does Ning Xuan love love? Now Ning Xuan is dead, you don't need to envy them anymore."

The most jealous of Princess Danyang was Yufu and Kun Yuyang.

Yin Shuo thought that saying this would make her a little more happy, but Princess Danyang's face was pale, and two lines of blood and tears were in her eyes. How about loving you until you grow old?"

She rushed towards Yin Shuo, he was startled, and immediately opened his eyes.

It turned out to be a dream.

He looked around the room, and only felt that the room was dark, and every dark corner might hide the ghost of Princess Danyang.

There was footsteps outside the house, pattering, pattering.

He immediately grabbed the bedding under him, and his veins violently became nervous, but he saw that his trusted subordinates came in.

"My son, there is news from Xi Kun."
