On the eighth day of February in the 13th year of Xuanxi, Zhongchun, Shangshangji, everything is suitable and there are no taboos.

South Korea’s government office and Zhongpinghou’s residence are full of guests and friends today, red silk is fluttering and beaming with joy. Yuyang’s son Han Chengmiao married Chu Xin, a girl from the Chu family.

In Zhongpinghou's mansion, the nuns of Shiquan were twisting and dressing Chu Xin, and the sisters and close friends of the Chu family were sitting beside her, joking and joking with her.

Dayin's daughter came out of the pavilion late, and the more particular family will stay for another year or two after they get married. One is to teach the daughter the principles of human relationships after marriage, and the other is to see people's hearts for a long time, so as to test and see if the son is real. It is worth entrusting.

People often say that getting married is like reincarnating for the second time. The cost of correcting mistakes is too high. If you make a mistake, it may even affect your whole life. How can you not be cautious?

The person Chu Xin was going to marry today had obviously passed more than two years of "examination and observation", and her brother who was "picky" on this matter finally nodded.

As the elder brother, Chu Heng felt that he had not fulfilled his responsibilities as a brother in Lishan in the past 16 years, and gave Chu Xin an incomparably generous dowry—including the share from her "sister-in-law" , from gold and silver treasures to property shops to manned servants... everything is included.

Mu Xiyun was ill, and Ye Jianwei and Ye Jianwei couldn't come here, but Ye Shuli and Ye Xinghui represented their mother's Lishan Ye family, and they also added a lot of dowry to Chu Xin.

Years ago, the South Korean government’s collection of dowry gifts was already huge. Yesterday, Chu Xin’s dowry went out, and it was even more red makeup. Come out and envy others.

Three or four years ago, who would have thought that a concubine in Zhongpinghou's mansion would have such good luck.Thinking back to when Han Chengmiao and Chu Xin were engaged, everyone said that the son of South Korea was at a loss, but later on, everyone who didn't admire his insightful eyes and knowledge changed their words to say "the right family".

Just looking at the people blocking the door in front of Zhong Pinghou's mansion, it's hard to say whether Han Chengmiao will be able to receive a bride today!

——The girls sitting around Chu Xin were chatting and making fun of her, while adding powder and makeup for her.

Chu Xin held the fan in her hand, and pursed her lips with a blushing smile, feeling shy and looking forward to it, as well as a little worried.

Brother, Ah Yan and the others shouldn't be too embarrassing for Ah Miao today...

At that time, in front of the main gate of Zhong Pinghou's Mansion, gongs and drums sounded, and the procession to welcome the bride had already arrived. Han Chengmiao was dressed in a red wedding dress with auspicious clouds and concentric patterns with gold edging, and he looked dignified, handsome and handsome.Su Lang, Xiao Gaomin, Yun Fei, Lu Ji, and brothers from the Han family included in the welcoming team, and they surrounded the bridegroom as he got off his horse and went to the door with arrogance.

And the people who stopped the sedan chairs at the Zhongpinghou's mansion were not idlers. Apart from Chu Chen and Chu Yan, the brothers of the Chu family, there were also people from the two mother clans, Ye Shuli and Ye Xinghui.Of course, the most important thing is Dong Jun, the eldest uncle. It is really stressful to stop there.

But fortunately, the groom official "prescribed the right medicine" and came prepared.In front of the main entrance, let alone other things, I must write two makeup poems. Yuyang Han's poems and books are heirs, and Han Shizi can easily write them.He is very good at poetry and prose, and the art of war is not difficult. He is talented and both civil and military. Unless he is really showing off, no one can stop the bridegroom from asking for a bride.

There were a few boisterous guests in front of the door, and the atmosphere was extremely cheerful. People from the welcoming team stepped forward to help the bridegroom and defeated them one by one.The brothers of the Han family went to pester Chu Chen, Chu Yan and the others, Su Lang walked up to Xing Hun and said with a smile: "It's agreed, don't make trouble."

Xinghui stretched out a hand: "Then you give the money."

Ye Shuli, who was next to him, was even more "obsessed with money". He put his fan back on his waist, spread his hands and handed it to Xiao Gaomin, with four big characters shining brightly on his face - "buy road with money".

The Shizi was very cooperative, and without blinking an eye, he grabbed several handfuls of golden scorpions from the money basket and stuffed them to Ye Shuli.

The bridegroom put his mind to it, and decided on the strategy of "dividing and transforming" early on, and invited several brothers-in-law individually a few days in advance, and gave them enough "bribes" one by one. on the road.

Only one uncle who was the most difficult to deal with could not be helped by others, so the groom had to do it himself.

Chu Heng squinted at Han Chengmiao, who bowed his hands and saluted in front of him. This kid has been courting him from time to time since the dowry was given years ago. A few days ago, he even quietly begged His Majesty to ask Ling Ye to give him some kind words.

In fact, looking at it for several years, Han Chengmiao is indeed a good match, his character, talent and appearance are all valuable, the most rare thing is——

Chu Heng glanced at him, but still bent his lips, pretending to be serious: "Ah Xin likes you, I won't stop you today, if you treat her badly in the future..."

"Second brother has plenty of ways to cure me." Han Chengmiao said.

Chu Heng gave a "hmm", turned sideways to get out of the way, and smiled slightly, "The auspicious time has come, let's go."

Crackling whips sounded, and the bridegroom was surrounded by the crowd, and he went to the embroidery pavilion with a happy smile.

Chu Xin is dressed in a happy dress today, wearing a phoenix crown and pearl hairpins on her head, wearing cloud brocade shoes on her feet, painting flowers on her eyebrows, and red lips painted with red lipstick. The girl who has always been beautiful and beautiful is now dressed up, which amazes everyone's eyes.

But she covered her face and sat on the embroidered couch. When Han Chengmiao walked in, he hadn't seen the face of his sweetheart, he just looked at the wedding dress, and couldn't hide the smile in his brows and eyes.

After laying the geese, the bride's close friends and sisters gathered around, and the groom's official wrote reminder poems. In this way, the bride was finally urged out, and the beauty returned with her.

The newlyweds bid farewell to their natal parents, boarded the bridal sedan chair, and the welcoming team returned triumphantly, with gongs and drums beating together, and they headed for the Korean government in a mighty way.

The mandarin ducks fly together, the phoenix sings in harmony, the man is talented and the woman looks good, and the couple is made by nature.

On the third day when the newlyweds returned home, Chu Heng made another trip to Zhongpinghou's mansion.

As a newlywed, everything is fine for Chu Xin in the Korean government.

Yuyang Han's family has a clean and upright family style, and the couple treat her like their own daughter, especially Mrs. Guogong, who is kind and forthright. On the second day after entering the door, she handed over all the affairs in the Shiziyuan and taught her to take care of the family gifts; They are also amiable and easy to get along with.Of course, the most important thing is who she marries.

The young girl's youthfulness faded away, Chu Xin changed into a bride's attire, her brows were green and frowning, her lotus face was full of spring, with the shyness of a newly-married face on her face, her starry eyes slightly lowered, and she answered Zhong Pinghou's question with a smile. Cheng Miao sat beside her, and the hands of the two were faintly visible where the sleeves of the robes met.

Holding the teacup, Chu Heng's eyes happened to pass by, and the corners of his lips were lightly drawn, as if he was relieved.

……

After finishing Chu Xin's marriage, half of February passed in a blink of an eye.

Chu Heng went to Zhong Pinghou's mansion again, this time, he took away from Zhong Pinghou Chuhong's hand the letter to Ji Wusu to release his wife.

The first day of April is Lishan Mountain's opening ceremony once every ten years. Before that, Chu Heng picked an auspicious day for moving the tomb and opening the grave.

After the Shangsi Festival, the seventh day of March is very suitable, and it happens to celebrate Qing Yan's birthday.

Recently, Kyushu has been peaceful and prosperous, and there is no trouble in the court. The only important thing is the emperor's wedding.Half a year later, civil and military officials objected uselessly, persuading them to no avail, until finally they gradually accepted the matter.

Although the date has not been fixed, the big wedding is a matter of time. The six departments and nine temples of the outer court and the six ministers and two divisions of the inner court have made preparations early.So from the presentation of the memorial to the imperial court to the grand court meeting in the Xuanzheng Hall, the ministers argued about the wedding system every day, ranging from the procedures of various ceremonies to the color of the jade pendant.

Ling Ye ordered a few loyal and important ministers to join Jian Guo and Bai Long Yu to accompany Chu Heng to Mount Li.

Not only to visit the place where Ah Yue grew up, but also to meet Ye Jianwei and Mu Xiyun.Marriage is the work of God, and the marriage of the earth should follow the wishes of the parents. I haven't met my master and wife, so how can I set a special date for the wedding.

This time, Chu Xin, Chu Yan, and son-in-law Han Chengmiao went together to help the deceased mother's coffin back home. However, Princess Yangjia, who heard that the emperor was going to Lishan Mountain, couldn't hold back immediately, and ran to the palace to beg Ling Ye and Chu Heng took her along and promised to be obedient and not cause any trouble on the way.She has wanted to visit Ningzhou for a long time, but the turmoil inside and outside Kyushu two years ago made it impossible to make the trip. Now a great opportunity is in front of her eyes, and she can't miss it no matter what.After a round of entanglement, Ling Ye was finally annoyed enough to nod his head in agreement.

On the seventh day of March, Spring Mountain is like a smile.

Ji Wusu was buried in the northern suburbs of the imperial capital. She was only a concubine back then, and once entered the Yeyou court. Although she met Empress Chengde who gave birth to a son-in-law to amnesty the world, she was lucky to escape from slavery and return to good citizenship.But in the eyes of the world, he was still looked down upon. After his death, he failed to enter the Zhongli Chu family's ancestral grave, and was buried in the imperial capital on the spot.

But it's not worth it.Fallen leaves return to their roots. For Yu Jiwu, the world is so big that nowhere is her "root" except Lishan Mountain.

It was a great joy to go home, and the spirit of Tai Zaitian must be very happy, so their journey was sunny and smooth.

On the [-]th of March, Chu Heng carried the coffin to the ancestral tomb in Lishan Mountain. He stayed in the ancestral hall, talked with the ancestors, and then chose an auspicious day for burial.

From the first year of Jianning to the 13th year of Xuanxi, for a total of 30 years, the years passed, and the sun and the moon passed away. Ji Wuju finally returned home 15 years after his death.

Before leaving the imperial capital, Chu Heng had sent a letter to his master and wife. The emperor's visit in Weifu did not want to make any noise. Ye Jianwei counted the days and sent Ye Shuli and Ye Xinghui, who came back earlier, to take turns at the gate of Yiye Gucheng Welcome to drive forward.

It happened that Ye Shuli was waiting at the door that day.

Seeing Chu Heng and his party from a distance, Gui Jianchou went up to meet him, bowed his hands to the emperor, and led them to Lishan Mountain.

Chu Heng wanted to go to Liyuanhou's Mansion in the city, so he asked Ye Shuli to lead Yangjia Princess, Chu Xin, Chu Yan and Han Chengmiao up first, and take them to enjoy the spring day of Lishan Mountain Great view.

In a few days, it will be the day of the celebration. There are visitors from all over Lishan Mountain. Ye Jianwei is not in the city lord's mansion at this time. Chu Heng finished his work and took Ling Ye to Lishan leisurely.

In March, the spring was bright and beautiful, and all the way up the stone steps, Chu Heng hadn't been back to Lishan for a long time, and while walking with Ling Ye, they chatted about some past events in the teacher's gate.

Speaking of which, since the news that Chu Shanhua was Dongjun came back to Lishan, Chu Heng hadn't seen his juniors yet.

This group of teenagers used to be most attached to their Senior Brother Shanhua Chu, wishing they could cling to him all the time.On the contrary, they respect and fear Elder Brother Dongjun, whom they seldom see on weekdays. In their hearts, Elder Brother Dong is the most untouchable existence in Lishan Mountain. Seeing small things should make people respectful.

——It's just helping the young master to do a few scenes where the senior brother disciplines the younger generation, and Dongjun's image has evolved into this, Chu Heng is also very helpless about it.

Walking across the floating suspension bridge and arriving at the mountain gate, as expected, the juniors and brothers turned their backs. When they saw him, they didn't know whether the fear of Dongjun prevailed in their hearts, or their closeness to Shanhua was better. They stood one by one. I was at a loss there.

Chu Heng looked amused, greeted them, and waved his hands to signal them what to do.

This was just the beginning, from the mountain gate to the square in front of the hall, no matter who saw the senior brother, they were in a hurry, and then stood there like quails.

Ling Ye was amazed to see it, and chuckled lightly and whispered to Chu Heng: "What did Dongjun do in Lishan, why is he so afraid of you all the way here?"

Chu Heng was helpless: "I have to ask Xinghui..."

"When he was young, he didn't go to Fangjiewa for three days. He was so skinny that he had to violate the precepts of Lishan every three days. Although he was the young master, he didn't have any privileges. If he made a mistake, he would be punished. Huihui was in the water. Copying the gate rules of Jingtai was miserable, and my master ignored him, so he had no choice but to complain to me and Shuli."

"Later, when I arrived at Guiyi Realm, I always used Ji Wuyue's name to go to Shuijingtai to scoop him up. I am Quan Lishan's senior brother and his direct senior brother, so it's only natural for me to teach him. But after all, it's a crime. Wrong, even if I don’t beat him, I still have to pretend to take him home and scold him, so every time I take him out of the water mirror, he follows me with teary eyes and a face full of fear, Stay in Wangshu Palace for a while before going out. The outsiders thought he was beaten in Wangshu Palace, and he was being punished and recovering from his injuries."

Chu Heng continued: "When I enter the Mahayana and become the Lord of Lishan Mountain, it will be even better to bring him out of the Shuijingtai. He has been 'beaten' a lot in Wangshu Palace. That’s how the reputation of human affection spread.”

Ling Ye chuckled: "Doesn't your master care?"

"My master? As long as Xinghui doesn't go too far and makes him angry, he will turn a blind eye. Anyway, I will take Xinghui back to Shudian and I won't let him play around. I just want to read with him in another place." Just practicing martial arts. But if Xinghui really offends his father, then no one can save him."

Chu Heng remembered the scene where Xinghui was chased by Manli Mountain, the lord of the Eastern Capital, and couldn't help laughing, and said a little puzzled: "But when this kid is scolded by my master, there is always a way to get me and Shuli together In the end, I don’t know what happened, but the three of us always knelt down in the Changji Hall.”

All three of them returned to Lishan for this celebration, and they all brought people with them.Xinghui came from Changzhou together with Su Lang, Ye Shuli appeared to be alone, but in reality Lishan celebration, the academy would also come to congratulate and give gifts, and the leader was their family's eldest son.

They were still looking for the right time for the matter of Ye Shuli and Xiao Gaomin, and they didn't dare to confess to the owner of the Eastern Capital, for fear of becoming the last firewood that ignited the volcano. The three brothers and sisters trembled when they talked about this matter, and they were very worried .

There are too many rebellious sons, let's just muddle along, Chu Heng is thinking that for His Majesty's sake, he should be able to save two beatings by then...

Passing through the square in front of the hall, you will arrive at the Changji Hall where Ye Jianwei and Mu Xiyun are.Having met Master and Mistress, and finished what he wanted to say, Chu Heng arranged for Chu Xin, Chu Yan, Yangjia and the others to live, and took Ling Ye back to Wangshu Palace to rest.

After a long farewell, Dongjun's Wangshu Hall is magnificent and quiet. Even though the celebration has added a bit of joy, compared with other places, there are still few people here.

Stepping into the gate of the hall, Chu Heng first went to a corner of the back hall.The ever-burning lamp in the room is burning quietly, and the sandalwood is curling up. There is a memorial tablet enshrined here, which is Ji Wuju.

"Your Majesty, wait for me for a while." Chu Heng whispered to Ling Ye.

He stepped forward and knelt on the futon in front of the tablet. Today, he finally fulfilled his late mother's long-cherished wish. Chu Heng stared at the tablet with some ecstasy.

No matter in the shallow and thin childhood memories or in the past that Mu Xiyun talked about, Ji Wuyu has always been a demure and tough woman. Suffering and years can never erase her gentle and resolute heart. .

From the age of four to 20, Chu Heng lived in Lishan for 16 years, and later returned to the imperial capital. Every time he thought of this name, he always felt that there was a pair of gentle and loving eyes watching him grow up.

He also always remembered that one day, he would bring his mother home.

Chu Heng saluted, and when he came back to his senses, Ling Ye came to him, raised his robe and knelt down.

"Hey--"

Ling Ye leaned over and bowed down, "I've seen that master and wife have made a big decision, and now I'm going to pay my respects to the high hall to repay the Chunhui, it should be."

Chu Heng didn't stop him any more, and said with a light smile: "The big deal is to open the ancestral hall on an auspicious day, and add your wife's name to the Lishan family tree?"

"Of course." Ling Ye nodded earnestly, "It's just passed the Ming Road." He suddenly remembered something, spread his palm and handed it in front of Chu Heng, "Where is the dowry gift for me?"

"I want a betrothal gift..." Chu Heng's lips curved even more, he tilted his head and thought for a while, then pondered for a moment, "Then this is it."

He held Ling Ye's hand and pressed it to his heart, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is surrounded by mountains and rivers, gold, jade and common things are not worth mentioning. I will take this as a betrothal gift after much deliberation."

Ling Ye clasped his hand instead, "My husband offered me as an offer, I am very happy and accept it."

Chu Heng frowned, and asked back: "What about the betrothal gift His Majesty gave me? When we came, the imperial capital was preparing for the emperor's wedding."

Ling Ye smiled and said: "Gao Tang is above, and Jiang Shanhe swears, this life is my employment."

Chu Heng laughed and replied, "I want to be a queen."

Side by side bowed twice more, offering new incense in front of the memorial tablet, Chu Heng took Ling Ye to the front hall to rest, and later went to the family banquet hosted by the master and wife.

The sandalwood in the furnace fluttered like a lotus flower, circling the memorial tablet for a circle, and went straight to the sky.

The names on the tablets watched their backs quietly, just like she stood in front of the side door of Zhongpinghou's mansion back then, watching Xiao Chuheng go to Lishan.

——I want him to grow up safely and happily, and let him live for himself.It would be the best if he could meet someone he likes in the future, who also loves him and loves him, and live a good life.

……

After the celebration, on the eighth day of the fourth lunar month, which is an auspicious day, Ye Jianwei opened the Lishan ancestral hall and repaired the family tree.

They buried Ji Wusuxi in the ancestral tomb of Xingyu Liyun, and the moment the last pile of soil was covered, a misty spring rain fell from a lonely city.

On the tenth day of April, Chu Heng and Ling Ye bid farewell to their teachers and set off from Lishan Mountain.

Back to the imperial capital, ready to get married.

--------------------

Ye Jianwei knew that there were three rebels in the family, so he should have written about it in Shuli Xiaoxiao's episode.
