Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 441 The Great Day
The Chinese have always believed in the auspicious days of the zodiac. Don't say that a king's marriage is a happy event among the people, and a good day must be chosen.Lu Qian's big marriage is naturally like this.From entering Yunlong Gongsun wins the horse, there is nothing wrong with Gai.

Such things, such as avoiding evil, praying for good luck and seeking safety, and folk customs cannot be simply attributed to feudal superstition.In Lu Qian's view, this is more of a culture.Although it is indeed cumbersome for the younger generation in later generations.

Before the wedding day arrives, the streets and alleys in Yidu city are already full of colorful flowers, decorated with lanterns and colorful flowers, very lively.

Misty and auspicious clouds envelop the purple pavilion, and a harmonious and auspicious atmosphere covers the tower.This is Yidu City.

It was the first time for Fang Tianding to come to Yidu. Since the farewell that year, and the rest of the year, things have changed.He Fang Tianding is no longer just Fang La's son, but also the prince of the Southern Kingdom, who was granted the title of King of Nan'an.

Fang La, a "Holy Duke", crowned his son king, and this "Holy Duke" is indeed very powerful.

More than a year has passed, and the relationship between the North and the South is still close.For example, right now, Liangshan continues to import iron and leather to Fang Lajun from the two routes of the outer sea and the inner river.Since then, in exchange for silk grains and rice from Jiangnan.

Who said that although the land in the south of the Yangtze River is rich, it lacks iron and iron in its territory.The iron mines in the south of the river are more distributed in the south of Lingnan, that is, in Guangdong.In the Song Dynasty, it only produced more than 300 jin of iron. By the time of Zhezong, the iron production was close to 500 million jin.That is to say, the amount of iron produced on the ground in Nanguang is nearly [-] million catties.Then there is Fujian Road, then Jinghu, and finally Jiangnan West Road.

In this case, there is an innate complementarity between the two sides.

Lu Qian controlled the second of the four major iron prisons in the Northern Song Dynasty, and also traded with the Jurchens in the Liao region. The iron materials and leather were naturally rich, while the south controlled the south of the Yangtze River, and the silk, silk, rice and grain were abundant. Only Lu Qi.

And Lu Qian bartered things, and earned silk, grain and rice from the south, one of which was used to support the army, and the other was used to support the people.

When the temperature turned cold after the autumn harvest, the land of Qilu used grain, rice and silk as a lure to mobilize the enthusiasm of the peasants to repair roads and dig water canals.At the end of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Ji was slack in government, and most of the officials under him did nothing.Even though the Liangshan army used prisoners to repair roads and embankments, how could it be so easy for the huge Qilu?

And in a county, the roads are put aside first, and the matter of water canals is also the top priority.The common people may not walk, but they must eat.

Look at how many acres there are in the land of Qilu, how much irrigated land is there, and how much dry land is there?The latter can only eat with the face of God every year.

And if the canal is built, it will be another look.

Waterwheels, rollovers, and windmills are mostly means of drawing water.

But the people are disorganized and clueless, and together they are a powerful force, but without a clear guide.That was a mess.

Lu Qianru used silk and grain as a lure to guide others to work hard.

This is because the Song Dynasty was not as good as the Han and Tang Dynasties. At that time, the laborers were not given food, so the corvee was heavy and put great pressure on the people.However, Zhao Kuangyin went against the ancient system of depriving the laborers of food and instituted a food system in which "one man was given two liters of rice per day".From then on, the law of husband service became the ancestor law of Zhao and Song Dynasties.

If Zhao Da can give up, how can Lu Qian not?Then set the amount of labor for the old, the weak and the strong, with punishment for less work and rewards for more work. Silk, silk, food and rice can lure the common people to work hard.

Moreover, Lu Qian asked to "choose on the spot" and ask the people to work in the local area as much as possible, instead of transferring farmers from Yizhou to the Yellow River.

In this way, both the north and the south can get what they need.Fang La got the armor and leather for soldiers to prepare with strong weapons, and the Liangshan army got silk, money and food to support the army and the people.

Although there are quite a lot of slander among Shandong scholars, they think that Lu Qian governed the people, blindly driving them for profit, and being harsh on skills, without moral education.But a group of powerless scumbags can't even stir up public opinion, so they can only be used to make noise.And it must be someone with longer ears like Lu Qian.

Fang Tianding and Gao Yu entered the city first. They did not go to the empty shell of Honglu Temple of the Ministry of Rites. Instead, they walked around Yidu City first, looking back and forth.Turning around the city gate, I saw countless wine shops and teahouses, and people in rich clothes and hats were coming and going.

The city also specially marked out a galley for carriages and horses, still left and right, a team of horses was walking on it, and every healthy horse was heavily burdened.

Yidu is located on land, and there are no rivers passing through it. You can't see the arch bridges everywhere in Hangzhou, and you can't see a single boat.Only chariots and horses can be seen.

The city is much busier than Hangzhou City, with row upon row of hotels and teahouses, countless shops of all kinds, and all kinds of cars, sedans, mules and horses are constantly busy.There is an oil shop on the left, bustling with customers in front of the door, and there are also many customers inside.Seeing the word "whale" hanging on the shop front, Fang Tianding knew it was whale oil.

He also got it in Jiangnan, and there are also a batch of high-quality candles, all from the body of a whale.When I heard it for the first time, I felt that the Liangshan Army had acted recklessly and provoked such a huge monster on the sea.I heard that there were many people who capsized and fell into the sea during the period, but the hunting trip still did not stop.

With Fang Tianding's insight, how do you know how much benefit a whale can contribute?As long as you eat well once, even if you stop teaching, there may be people who will complain.

"It's so prosperous that people are enviable. I don't know when Hangzhou will have the prosperity there." This is because the Manichaeans denied the theory of "holy treasury" before they raised their troops, so that Hangzhou's economy has not been completely ruined.However, the Manichaeans entered Hangzhou and killed them so fiercely that all the rich merchants in the market were wiped out, and the families of officials and eunuchs were eradicated.

In this way, the two of them only wandered around in the city until dusk, and then went to meet up with their relatives outside the south gate, where the little Xuanfeng Chai Jin had been waiting for a long time.

After so many makeup arrangements, makeup deliveries, and making a house, Lu Qian's wedding day finally arrived.

Early in the morning, Lu Qian, who was dressed in red, went to greet him in person in a jade chariot.

Personal greeting is one of the six ancient rituals.During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the crown prince's wedding was not invited, but after the Tang Dynasty, the crown prince began to invite, and the prince's wedding will follow the six rituals.

The rituals of urging makeup, sending makeup, and making a house are all etiquette evolved in the Song Dynasty, and Lu Qian also accepted them.According to the etiquette at this time, three days before the wedding, the man's family will send gifts such as makeup buns, gold hijabs, flower fans, etc. to the woman's family, and the woman's family will reply with gold and silver Shuangsheng Royal, Luohua Putou, green robes, boots and other things.And a few days before the personal welcome, send someone to deliver the dowry to the man's home.The same is true for the shop house. The day before the wedding, the bride's family sends people to the new house to lay curtains, bedding and other utensils in the house, and prepares gifts to warm the house.Then the house is guarded by trusted women or envoys from the married woman, and outsiders are not allowed to enter to treat the newcomers.The owner of the shop must be a "good life woman" with good fortune and longevity, and a wealthy family, in order to get auspicious.This custom is still popular in some places in later generations.Although in Lu Qian's case, this is not possible.Coke and his generation can't review the dowry in an open and aboveboard manner, and they have to carry the people of the southern country behind their backs, and the latter also knows it well.

A burly man in a red suit came out to 'show off'. The fault was that Lu Qian had already cultivated a thick skin, and he really felt a little ashamed in his heart.

Therefore, it was better for a man to get married in the Qin and Han Dynasties. He was dressed in black, and he still greeted his relatives at dusk.There are no such complicated things as the cumbersome hijab picking and bridal chambers of later generations.

But the rules have changed long ago. Li Tang's time has become the morning wedding, and it is still the classic color scheme of male green female red.In this way, a red suit in the Song Dynasty is better than a green suit.

The firecrackers crackled loudly.Amidst the sound of firecrackers, real firecrackers, and high-pitched joy, the Hongluan sedan chair slowly walked towards Prince Qi's Mansion in a boiling and festive atmosphere.From today on, this palace finally has a true mistress.

Fang Jinzhi, wearing a wedding dress and a bright red hijab, looked shy, full of expectations and a little nervous.The man he married was no ordinary person, but a hero who would bring chaos to the world.

Just looking at the achievements, even the father who has the backing of Manichaeism's century-old management is far inferior.

Moreover, Liangshan's army is brave and brave to fight, and King Qi has a long-term vision and great plans. He doesn't know how many times he has heard it from his brothers.

Not to mention the future of the north and the south, if the Zhao family is really overthrown, I am afraid that there will be a big war between the north and the south in the future.Fang Jinzhi holds the vase in his hand, which has been enshrined by Manichaeism for many years.This means that one is peace, and the other is peace.

Although she is a weak woman, she bears heavy responsibilities.

The reason for this is that the Manichaeists have no confidence in defeating the Liangshan Army.And they are already satisfied with this southern land.

The treasure vase in his hand was replaced by a piece of red silk before it was warm.Although he couldn't see it, Fang Jinzhi knew that Lu Qian was on the other end of the red silk.From then on, the fate of the two was tied together. Unfortunately, their internal affairs were complicated, but it was difficult to say that they would share weal and woe and depend on each other for life and death.

His eyes were hot, and tears flowed down, but he forced himself to hold back.

Before she could calm down, the voice of the singing officer had already sounded.This is not a folk worship to heaven and earth, but a marriage ceremony in the same prison.During the etiquette process, the two sides had already made an agreement, and Fang Jinzhi also memorized it by heart.

Then, enter the inner room and stand in the courtyard, facing the north.Take the jade treasure in the palm of the hand, and go south.That is to say, be canonized as a queen and take the queen's seal.Ascension to the throne, all the officials of the court came, and the four wives also came, and they all descended to stand in the court, and walked north again to salute.If it is lowered, enter the inner room.Wash and eat.Her business is over.

As for Lu Qian, he was naturally drinking heavily. On such a good occasion, wouldn't it be unsatisfactory not to drink to the fullest?
Moreover, because of the Liangshan Army's reason, Lu Qian was born with a sense of majesty and more family affection in the eyes of the generals.Just like the Ruan brothers, like Li Kui and Liu Tang, they would dare to take the opportunity to pour Lu Qian hard.Can Lu Qian still pretend to be majestic to frighten them?
"That Hei Si is so vulgar, and the king has indulged him too much." Wen Huanzhang said with frowned eyebrows.

With the establishment of the Qi State and the improvement of various rules and regulations, the people of the old days are somewhat divided.Lin Chong was one, and so was Wen Huanzhang.It's just that Lin Chong is more concerned about his heart. On the bright side, Lu Qian calls him brother in private, and he can feel at ease; while Wen Huanzhang returns more to the traditional civil servants and scholar-bureaucrats.

Zhao Mingcheng smiled inwardly when he heard the words, this Wen Huanzhang felt more and more like his deceased father to him.

"Your Prime Minister, please stop. Today is the day of great joy for the king." Zhao Mingcheng couldn't help saying that today he is a ceremonial official.

Wen Huanzhang frowned, "Defu is also a well-read poet, why do you say such a fallacy? Don't you hear the word "Gangchang"?"

Zhao Mingcheng was immediately annoyed, could it be that he didn't understand Gangchang? "Go and rest, go and rest." Such people are naturally disliked.What's wrong with the king being like this?Don't you hear that when the fake is the real, the real is also the fake. The word "love" has been carried for a long time, but it will be riding on the back of a tiger, and it is rare to get off.But isn't this great for the civil and military officials below?

Don’t you hear that Fan Zhongyan’s holy heart interprets the meaning of the Dharma?
How vulgar is Li Kui?In the eyes of the king, this preservation is true temperament.He, Zhao Mingcheng, does not have that kind of affection, otherwise he would also go to get drunk with the king.
