The straight man who wears bright clothes is also afraid of messing with him

On the eighth day of July in the 23rd year of Hongwu, Cui Miao invited Li Cuilan's tablet out, and returned to the Marquis Mansion together with Shen Qing. Tablets are tied.

Cui Miao pulled Shen Qing to kneel in front of the memorial tablet, took out a brocade box from her sleeve, handed it to Shen Qing, and said with a smile: "I have been busy for five days and nights to make this, Ah Qing opened it and have a look."

Shen Qing opened the brocade box, and there were two gold rings inside. The style was very simple, with simple auspicious cloud patterns engraved on them, and even some places were not round enough, but for Cui Miao, who had never been in contact with it, this was enough to prove that His sincerity.

"The two characters 'Qing' and 'Miao' are engraved on the inner side of this ring, referring to you and me." Cui Miao said with some embarrassment: "My craftsmanship is not as good as Ah Qing, so don't dislike Ah Qing."

Shen Qing quickly shook his head and said, "How could I dislike it as a gift from Da Lang? Qing must cherish it!"

Cui Miao took out the ring engraved with the word 'Qing', put it on Shen Qing's ring finger, and said softly: "I had a dream two days ago, and I dreamed of a wonderful world. It is called a ring, but the meaning is different from ours here, it is only worn when two people get married, and it must be worn on the ring finger, as long as the two are still in love, they will never take it off. Can you understand why Ah Qing?"

Shen Qing's eyes flickered, and he asked, "Why?"

"Because there is a blood vessel on the ring finger that leads directly to the heart. If I put a ring on your finger, it is equivalent to trapping your heart. From then on, you are only allowed to have me in your heart. Ah Qing, put on the ring, you will be the only one in your life. You can only be with me, are you willing?"

Shen Qing's eyes were filled with emotion, he nodded heavily, and said: "Da Lang, I am willing."

Cui Miao stretched out her finger and said softly, "Then Ah Qing will put it on for me too."

Shen Qing took out the ring, put it on Cui Miao's ring finger, looked at Cui Miao, and said happily: "Your heart is also caught."

"It has long been trapped."

Cui Miao opened the package she brought with her, and two bright red wedding dresses appeared in front of the three of them. Cui Miao said, "Ah Qing, I can't marry you openly..."

"Dalang, you don't need to say anything, you will have no regrets in this life!"

The two changed into red wedding clothes, looked at each other speechlessly, but their eyes were red.Cui Miao calmed down, looked at Wang Hua, and said, "Hua'er, I will trouble you to be the singer today."

Wang Hua's nose was sore, he nodded and said, "Yes, brother."

Cui Miao straightened her body, looked at the memorial tablet on the altar, and said solemnly: "Uncle, aunt, mother, Cui Miao and Shen Qing share the same heart, and wish to be husband and wife today, and hope that the three elders will bless us in heaven. Ah Qing, See you with me."

The two kowtowed three times respectfully, Cui Miao glanced at Wang Hua again, Wang Hua understood, and sang loudly: "Bow to heaven and earth!"

Cui Miao and Shen Qing looked at each other, then both knelt down on the ground and bowed respectfully.

"Two thanks to the high hall!"

The two knelt down in front of the spirit tablet again and bowed respectfully.

"Mother, Qing wishes to grow old with Dalang forever and never be separated!"

"Father, mother, Da Lang wishes to grow old with Ah Qing forever and never be separated."

"Bye husband and wife!"

Cui Miao and Shen Qing stood face to face, looked at each other affectionately, and bowed slowly.

"Licheng, send it to the bridal chamber!" Wang Hua's voice trembled slightly, and he was so sad that he almost shed tears.

"Ah Qing, we're married!"

"Well, we're married!"

In the blink of an eye, another three years have passed. In these three years, Cui Miao and Shen Qing have not indulged in their love for their children. Because of Shen Qing's relationship, Cui Miao has a sense of belonging to this era, and has truly begun to face up to the development and shortcomings of this era. I want to do my best to contribute to this country.Such as military training, such as firearms, such as making King Yan gradually pay attention to the role of merchants, so as to pay attention to economic development.Of course, his experimental field has not fallen, and it is still booming. He also bought nearby barren hills, planted grain for those who could reclaim the terraced fields, and planted trees for those who could not. And hire someone to look after it.The money poured out like running water, and even Cui Miao, who never cared about money, felt a pain in the flesh.Everyone didn't understand why Cui Miao did this. From their point of view, it was clearly a thankless task. Although it didn't cost much money to buy these barren hills, it was a lot of money to hire people to cultivate and plant trees. Where is the benefit.

Shen Qing was also surprised by Cui Miao's intentions, so he simply asked him why, and Cui Miao explained to Cui Miao in detail what is soil erosion, how to prevent land desertification, etc.Shen Qing was silent for a while, digesting Cui Miao's words, and then took Cui Miao back to the Hou's Mansion, all the way to the warehouse of the Hou's Mansion.Cui Miao looked at the overcrowded warehouse and suddenly felt envious and jealous.

Shen Qing took off the key of the warehouse from his body, stuffed it into Cui Miao's hand, and said: "Da Lang, take whatever you need here, don't worry about money."

Cui Miao was startled, and then said, "Ah Qing, aren't you afraid that I will squander it on you?"

"Dalang, we are a family, we don't distinguish between you and me. I wanted to give it to you before, but I'm afraid you misunderstood it and refused to accept it."

Cui Miao suddenly felt a sense of being taken care of, stepped forward and put her arms around Shen Qing's waist, and said with a sigh: "I, Cui Miao, am so lucky to meet Ah Qing, it must be a blessing from three lifetimes of cultivation!"

"Dalang said the opposite. I should be so lucky! If it weren't for Dalang, I would have died long ago. How could I be here today? What's more, Dalang's actions are all for the sake of his family and country. Your vision is clear. Ashamed of myself, that’s all I can do.”

Naturally, what Cui Miao did could not be hidden from the King of Yan. The King of Yan asked Dao Yan to guess the reason for Cui Miao's actions.Dao Yan said inscrutablely: "Amitabha, my lord, do you still remember that the poor monk once said that this son will be my minister?"

King Yan said angrily: "Monk, don't try to cheat with me, just speak up."

"Amitabha, lord, although the poor monk doesn't understand what he means, but looking at what this son has done in the past, he knows that it must be a good thing for the country and the people!"

King Yan said with a smile: "You monk, if you don't know, you don't know. Is it because I don't dare to punish you for being so mysterious?"

"Amitabha, how can the prince have the same knowledge as the poor monk? However, what the poor monk said is not a lie. He built a test field with his own money, and shared his experience with the farmers for free, which made the farmland in Beiping Prefecture more productive every year. There are several mansions, no one can compare. There is also a new method of training soldiers that he promotes in the army, the poor monk thinks the effect is very good, and the method of firearms training, all of them are very useful!"

"Speaking of that new method of training soldiers, is it really as effective as you said?"

Dao Yan clasped his hands together and said: "Amitabha, my lord, if you want to see if it will have a miraculous effect, just follow Cui Miao's example and let them fight in the ring to see how it goes."

Yan Wang said with a smile: "The monk is right."

King Yan summoned Cui Miao, told him to make his decision, and asked Cui Miao the reason for reclaiming and planting trees. Cui Miao explained the reason in detail as much as possible, and King Yan listened carefully. If he didn't understand, he asked in detail. After talking for two hours, King Yan finally digested Cui Miao's words.

"You mean that afforestation can prevent good land from turning into desert, and it can also change the soil quality of dry land to prevent floods, right?"

Cui Miao bowed and said: "Return to the lord, these are all shallow knowledge and humble opinions under the mark."

"Cui Qianhu, how did you know these things?"

Cui Miao lowered her eyes and replied: "My lord, this is a summary of the farmers' decades of experience, and I have seen it in an ancient book. It is like an experimental field and is being tested. .”

"Just because of a possibility, don't you feel bad about throwing a lot of money?"

Cui Miao smiled shyly, and said: "To be honest, the bidding is also painful, but after thinking about it, if it is true, this move will definitely benefit future generations and let our Ming Dynasty last for thousands of generations, so I am relieved. Anyway, money is something outside of the body, and if you don’t bring it with you when you die, it’s better to do something good for your children and grandchildren than to pile it up in the warehouse.”

"Cui Qianhu, how old is this year? Why haven't you married a wife yet?"

Cui Miao replied truthfully: "Go back to the lord, this year is twenty-seven. To tell you the truth, I have someone I love, and I swear to love him only for the rest of my life, but due to various reasons, I can't marry him." , I have no intention of getting married anymore."

King Yan had a complex expression, sighed softly, and said, "It's a seed of infatuation."

"My lord, life is only a few short decades, and I can't help myself. All I can do is to live up to my heart. I will always remember it, and dare not forget it lightly!"

King Yan patted Cui Miao on the shoulder, and said with emotion: "What a sentence is worthy of your heart! Good! Cui Qianhu, do it with confidence and boldness. As long as you keep your heart forever, this king will guarantee your prosperity and wealth for the rest of your life!"

Cui Miao said gratefully: "Thank you, Lord, for your kindness!"

In February of the 25th year of Hongwu, when King Yan was planning to hold a full-body martial arts contest, news came from the capital that the crown prince was seriously ill, so he was criticized by others. long.

Jin Wang Zhu Xi was detained in Nanjing by Emperor Hongwu, and he was not allowed to return to the vassal, and ordered people to secretly investigate the truth about the prince's serious illness.At the same time, the vassal kings from all over the country sent their confidants to Nanjing to investigate the news, and Nanjing was in a state of turmoil for a while.

King Yan went the opposite way, ordered everyone in King Yan's Mansion in Nanjing to be cautious in words and deeds, and transferred back the spies stationed in Nanjing.Yan Wang's move clearly told Emperor Hongwu that he had nothing to do with the prince's serious illness, and fully demonstrated that he had no intention of the throne.After Cui Miao learned about it from Shen Qing, she had no choice but to give a thumbs up. King Yan deserves to be the King of Yan. In such a sensitive moment, whoever jumps around will be unlucky. The best way is to be like King Yan and stay honest. with.

As expected, except for King Yan, other vassal kings were reprimanded by Emperor Hongwu one after another, with harsh words and a strong sense of warning.All the spies in the city were also invited by Jin Yiwei to drink tea at Fusi in Beizhen. For a while, people in Nanjing were panicked.
