Early the next morning, Sui Yan got up early and watched his elder brother load up the carriage with dowry gifts that filled the yard.
Horses and carts tied with red silk drove out of the Hou residence, heading towards South Street in a mighty manner.
And Suixun didn't know what to think, so he even let the carriage make a circle around the busy street, attracting countless people to stop and watch.
Sui Yan and Sui Xun sat in the carriage together, covering their faces and not wanting to listen to the noise outside.
Suixun usually wears black sturdy clothes, but today it is rare to see him change into a wide-sleeved ink-colored brocade shirt, his black hair is tied with a jade crown, and he is very handsome.
In the corner of the carriage, there were two longbows and a few feathered arrows, and I didn't know what they were doing.
Suixun frowned and said, "Why did you follow me?"
Sui Yan covered his face and said in a sullen voice, "I'm going to find Enhe and go to the street to play, don't worry about me, just take me for a ride."
Sui Xun's eyes and face were full of disgust, probably because he was afraid that Sui Yan would delay his own affairs.
Sui Yan burst into tears for himself, raised his head, and said, "Why don't you ride a horse today?"
Suixun was a little unhappy: "So many people are watching, is it a shame to ride a horse outside?"
Sui Yan: "…"
Sui Yan screamed in his heart: "You deliberately let people turn into this busy city, didn't you just let everyone in the capital know that you are going to marry Jiang Ning? What are you holding back now?!"
Hypocritical!
Sui Yan dared not to speak out. He sat in the carriage for a while, and the carriage stopped in Jiangfu.
Suixun: "You..."
Sui Yan immediately opened the curtain and jumped down: "I'll leave now, I'll leave right away, it doesn't get in your way!"
Suixun sneered: "It's good to know."
Sui Yan: "…"
He didn't even deny it
Not even a word of cover up!
Sui Yan cried and ran to the side gate of Jiang Mansion.
Gan Enhe had been waiting at the side door for a long time, when he saw Sui Yan running over, he hurriedly pulled him by the hand and dragged him to the door.
Gan Enhe looked at the boxes of betrothal gifts outside, and said in awe, "Did your second brother vacate the entire Hou Mansion? Didn't you leave any for you?"
Sui Yan's heart was ashes: "My bride-to-be and the old lady have left me alone, so you don't need to worry about it."
Gann said with a "Hi", "Then your Houfu is quite rich."
Sui Yan didn't want to talk about this, and said, "Where's your second sister? Are you coming out to see my brother today?"
Jiang Enhe said: "I don't know, according to the etiquette and customs, the second sister can't come out to meet the same-year-old general before she leaves the cabinet, but my second sister's bad temper, if she really intends to come to see the old general, who can stop it she?"
Sui Yan nodded: "That's right."
The two of them lay on the side door and watched for a long time, before the betrothal gifts finally moved into the mansion.
Gan Enhe was busy taking Sui Yan to the front yard, and when they were walking in the corridor, they saw Sui Xun chatting with Jiang Zhiyuan.
Suixun's face was still indifferent, and he was talking to Jiang Zhiyuan in a business-like manner. Those who didn't know it thought the two were discussing some major national affairs.
Jiang Zhiyuan had just passed his 50th birthday, but his body was still quite strong. He had a literati temperament that was immersed in books all year round, and he always treated people and things in a friendly manner.
Jiang Zhiyuan has been clean and honest all his life, but he was very frightened by Suixun's generous move. He exchanged a few words with Suixun, and was about to lead people to the main hall when he saw his second daughter briskly walking down the sidewalk of the side courtyard. come out.
Gan Enhe patted Sui Yan on the shoulder vigorously: "Look, look, I knew she had to come over!"
Jiang Zhiyuan hurried to stop her, puzzled: "Ninger, didn't you tell you not to leave the room today?"
Jiang Ning said, "I couldn't sit still, so I came to have a look."
Jiang Zhiyuan: "..."
Sui Yan whispered: "Second sister is really handsome and mighty."
Jiang Enhe scared him: "Anyway, you are careful, she always beats me at home, and beware of it to your home and beat you with your brother."
Sui Yan: "…"
Jiang Ning, who always beats people, didn't see Jiang Zhiyuan's speechlessness, and threw his hands at Suixun freely: "General Sui is fine."
Suixun nodded coldly, but the hand in the wide sleeve was lightly clenched.
Jiang Zhiyuan rubbed his brows, but there was nothing he could do about her, so he had to report the crime to Suixun: "The little girl is still young, and I hope that General Sui will forgive her for being rude."
Suixun said lightly, "I'm not rude, I think it's fine."
Jiang Zhiyuan: "..."
Seeing that the betrothal gifts had been delivered, Suixun stretched out his hand and took out from his sleeve the inquiring note that he brought from the ancestral temple the night before, made a junior salute and handed it to Jiang Zhiyuan, and said solemnly, "This is the latest divination from the ancestral temple. It is a good day and auspicious day, on the twenty-seventh day of January next year, it is appropriate to get married, and Lord Wangjiang will take a look."
Jiang Zhiyuan took the red post, opened it, and was about to speak, when Jiang Ning seemed to be impatient, and said, "Dad, if you send the dowry and the post, is it even if Najib passed?"
Jiang Zhiyuan was choked: "This..."
Suixun also said: "The gift and the letter have been delivered. If there is nothing else, the junior will leave first."
Jiang Zhiyuan: "... ah?"
I didn't even enter the main hall, I didn't drink a cup of tea, so I'm leaving now
Jiang Zhiyuan hesitated: "Does the general have something urgent to deal with?"
Suixun thought for a while and said, "Yes."
Jiang Zhiyuan hurriedly said: "General please."
Although the two married in more than a month, Jiang Zhiyuan still did not dare to get too close to this imposing and stern general, and he always spoke and did things politely.
Suixun nodded and glanced at Jiangning.
Jiang Ning raised his head slightly, and his narrow eyes glanced at him.
Suixun tried his best to keep his face sullen, and said, "Miss Jiang, will you have free time later?"
Jiang Ning said: "Yes."
Suixun said, "Can you take the liberty of inviting you to go outside the city with you?"
Snow and ice, go outside the city
Jiang Ning raised his eyebrows slightly: "What are you doing outside the city?"
Suixun said, "Fight the deer."
Sui Yan: "…"
Sui Yan almost rushed out uncontrollably. Gan Enhe, who was watching on the sidelines, stopped him and tried his best to stop him: "Brother! Brother! Calm down! They're fighting you and me now. If you go out to disrupt the situation, they will definitely beat them together. you?"
Suiyan: "Fighting the deer, why is he still thinking about this? He also invited your second sister to go with him? In the world of ice and snow, which girl would be willing to accompany this lunatic to go hunting outside the city?!"
Gan Enhe hugged his waist and dragged him back desperately: "Maybe my sister will!"
Sui Yan's movements froze.
Then, I heard Jiang Ning say with a soft tone, "Okay."
Sui Yan: "…"
Jiang Zhiyuan, who listened to the whole process, was a little messy: "Didn't the generals say that there is something important to do?"
Suixun said earnestly, "Accompanying Aning is the most important thing."
Jiang Zhiyuan: "..."
Suiyan: "Ah!"
It was a worthwhile trip. From childhood to adulthood, Sui Yan had never heard Sui Xun say such a fatal love story.
Sui Xun grew up in the army and has an extremely straightforward temperament, but it is the words that are said at will by such a straight-forward person, which are the most poignant.
Anyway, the corners of Jiang Ning's lips, who had always been indifferent, were slightly raised.
Gannhe was amazed: "I admire and admire."
Jiang Ning chuckled softly: "Then go?"
Suixun was about to turn around and lead the way, but after thinking about it, he turned back, stretched out his hand and held Jiang Ning's hand, and strode out.
Jiang Zhiyuan stayed silent for a long time in the front yard.
After a long while, in the private room on the second floor of Wanhua Building, the beaded curtain shields the actors in the inner room, and the sound of the guqin is like the gurgling of spring water, which is clear and beautiful.
Sui Yan and Gan En sat opposite each other and looked at each other for a long time.
Gann said: "Eat, eat vegetables."
Sui Yan's soul was restless, and he said, "I still think it's inconceivable that that kind of thing was said by my big old and rude brother. Am I still awake?"
Gan Enhe gave him a chopstick dish and said vaguely: "Eat it quickly, anyway, after my sister gets married, you can still see it, you will get used to it sooner or later."
Sui Yan: "…"
Sui Yan looked at him angrily, picked up chopsticks and ate a few bites and lost his appetite.
Gannhe was probably hungry and kept eating with chopsticks.
Sui Yan sat by the window, opened the curtain slightly and looked down. In the downtown street, a line of brightly dressed people surrounded a strange carriage passing by. The red wooden planks like lotus petals swayed gently, revealing a graceful woman inside. Dancing in.
The big drum and the small drum in the front are beating for a while, and there are strange bells playing wonderful music.
Sui Yan glanced at random and said, "Look below."
Gann He glanced at his busy schedule and immediately said in shock, "Oh my God!"
Sui Yan whispered: "You can see it too, that woman..."
Gan Enhe said, "Oh my God, that woman is so beautiful!"
Sui Yan: "…"
Gan Enhe looked at it and said again: "Oh, but I don't think it looks good yet."
Sui Yan couldn't hold back, kicked him under the table, and said angrily, "Fanbang woman!"
Gannhe: "Huh?"
Sui Yan nodded casually and said, "Not only the woman, but also the drummer, that, that, and the one next to him, who is also from Fanbang."
Gan Enhe didn't see it after looking at it for a long time, and said in surprise, "How did you know that?"
Sui Yan said, "I can see it."
Gannhe rubbed his eyes, wondering if he was blind.
Suiyan said: "The third prince was in the Jiangnan area a few days ago to suppress bandits, and some of them were from Fanbang. Do you think it's a coincidence that such a few people have suddenly appeared in the capital now?"
Gan Enhe said hesitantly: "It's almost the new year, and it's not uncommon for foreign countries to come to congratulate at this time every year. You don't want to be like a soldier, right?"
Sui Yan pursed his lips.
Jiang Enhe said again: "By the way, how did you know that there were people from Fanbang in the Jiangnan bandit den?"
Sui Yan chuckled: "Go out and ask, Bai Xiaosheng in Jianghu, it's me."
Gannhe: "Bah."
In the last life, Duan Ruwang went to Jiangnan to suppress the bandits, but he was different from Duan Zhisu. He beat the bandits to pieces, but he didn't use the same ruthless hand as Duan Zhisu and didn't save his life. A beautiful man from Fanbang was taken captive and dedicated to the emperor directly.
When Sui Yan heard it at the time, he was amazed. Duan Ruwang was truly a unique talent to be able to do such a thing.
And the beauty dedicated to the emperor was the woman on the wooden platform in a thin coat dancing in the ice and snow.
Sui Yan had a relationship with her once, and because of her too beautiful appearance, she still vaguely remembers it after so many years.
The most important thing is that this woman has made herself suffer once.
Because after Duan Ruwang came back from Jiangnan, he sent the beauty to Sui Yan first, and he didn't know what An's thoughts were.
That beauty probably came to this southern border, and she was covered in poison. As soon as Sui Yan approached her, she was almost fainted by the poisonous incense on her body. If it wasn't for Yue Jian who decided to send her back, Sui Yan might not have survived.
So it was the emperor who nearly died under the beauty's skirt.
Sui Yan said: "Anyway, don't touch that kind of woman. She looks bright and beautiful, but she is actually covered in poison."
Gann He sneered: "It's like you've touched it."
Suiyan: "I'm kind, you can memorize it for me."
Gan Enhe said, "Okay, I got it, Bai Xiaosheng."
Sui Yan kicked him again.
Sui Yan and Gan En had a meal with Cao Cao, and they went back to the house without staying any longer.
Waiting in the side courtyard with nothing to do, seeing Sui Yan coming over, he hurriedly greeted him and said a few words.
Sui Yan's face suddenly changed.
He looked at the sky outside, and after a long time he couldn't hold back, and said, "Get your car and drive, I want to enter the palace."
Left without a hitch.
After a long while, Sui Yan entered the palace with the token Duan Mingchong gave him, and trotted all the way towards the East Palace in a cloak.
There seems to be a palace servant outside the East Palace, Sui Yan glanced at it and frowned.
Did Duan Ruwang already come
If Duan Ruwang really offered that beauty to Duan Mingchong, and if Duan Mingchong couldn't refuse because of his affection, what would he do if he really accepted her
The more Sui Yan thought about his face, the more ugly his face became. He stopped the palace servant who wanted to go to the court, and he opened the warm curtain and rushed in like the wind.
"Your Highness! Your Highness think twice!"
He staggered and ran in, thinking twice, but when he took a closer look, he was stunned.
Duan Mingchong was sitting on a soft chair pouring tea, and across from him was a kind old man drinking tea from a cup, dressed in luxurious clothes.
Sui Yan Nana looked at them.
Duan Mingchong stood up and said in surprise, "Ayan, what's wrong?"
Sui Yan was taken aback, and hurriedly knelt down to salute: "I have seen the Queen Mother."
The Empress Dowager stayed in the deep palace all the year round. Sui Yan only met a few times when she was young, and she almost didn't recognize it at first sight.
The queen mother smiled gently, raised her hand, and said, "Okay, good boy, get up, it's cold."
Sui Yan stood up with his hands up, embarrassed and at a loss.
Duan Mingchong looked at him with a smile and said, "Sit down."
Sui Yan stirred his hands and carefully sat aside.
Duan Mingchong looked at him cautiously, smiled more gently, and said to the empress dowager, "Grandma, this is the Ayan that my grandson often mentions to you, the third son of General Sui, very cute and cute. ."
The queen mother smiled and said: "I see, it's really cute."
Sui Yan was frightened just now, and after drinking a sip of tea, he was overwhelmed, and suddenly he was a hero again.
He has a lotus-tongued and eloquent tongue, and he naturally spared no effort in coaxing his elders. Otherwise, he had been arrogant in the capital for so many years, and if he hadn't coaxed the old lady into favor, he would have been hanged up and beaten long ago.
Sui Yan showed a harmless smile to people and animals, and when he lied, his face was not blushing or he was out of breath: "His Royal Highness often mentioned the queen mother in front of Ayan, always saying that you love him very much, which makes me jealous."
Duan Mingchong tilted his head and chuckled. He rarely mentioned the queen mother in front of Sui Yan, and this person probably started talking nonsense again.
Fortunately, Sui Yan is well-behaved and speaks with great sincerity. Anyway, it was just a few words that coaxed the queen mother into ecstasy and couldn't stop laughing.
The queen mother loved the prince very much, and she was very happy with Sui Yan even with her, and when she left, she even rewarded him with a fine jade pendant.
Sui Yan hooked on the tassels of the jade pendant and smiled at Duan Ming Chong: "Look, the queen mother also likes me very much, do you have this?"
Duan Mingchong saw that he was happy, and he was happy too. In order to coax him, he said, "I don't."
Sui Yan tied the jade pendant given by the queen mother to his waist, raised his hand and untied the jade pendant that never left his body, holding it in both hands and handing it to Duan Mingchong.
Duan Mingchong: "Huh?"
Sui Yan blinked his left eye at him: "Then I will send you."
The author has something to say: Suixun: No one can stop me from hunting deer!
Jiang Ning's inner os: This man is really special and romantic.
Hiss... No wonder they say you two are a natural couple.
