Chapter 547: The Big Wedding (1)
According to the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, the Son of Heaven got married, and did not go out to greet the relatives in person, but the eunuchs of the Jinyi Guard and the Master of Ceremonies went to greet the relatives and took the people back to the palace.
Now Cheng Xiaolian is not the emperor, he can only come according to the scale of the prince, of course, even if he comes according to the scale of the Son of Heaven, no one will say anything, but it is better to follow the steps, and Cheng Xiaolian also hopes that he will take his woman home, instead of waiting for others to send it over.
This time Cheng Xiaolian got married, the officiant was Confucius, the main envoy was Qin Yue, the commander of the Shanhe Army who rushed back from Kuimen, and the deputy envoy was Yang Youcai, the commander of Jinyiwei.
Because of the rush of time, there was not so much time, seven days ago, Qin Yue and Yang Youcai went to the three mansions, Qin Yue held the festival, Yang Youcai held the book, completed the ceremony, the book and other ceremonies, and the phoenix crown dress was also distributed at that time.
To this day, the guard of honor is in front, Confucius is behind, and Cheng Xiaolian is sitting in the float, which can be regarded as letting the people of Chengdu have a glimpse of the Ming Dynasty.
Yang Youcai's palms have begun to sweat at this time, Cheng Xiaolian is sitting in the float, but he has still become a live target, at this time, if there is a strong man who assassinated Qin Shi Huang in Bolangsha, a big hammer wheel comes, he Yang Youcai can't stop even if he has a thousand kinds of abilities.
Therefore, the guards around the float are all brocade guards, and Yang Youcai has already instructed him to come over, if he encounters danger, even if these people are all dead, he cannot let His Royal Highness be harmed. On both sides of the wall, there are brocade guards, almost five steps and one post, to coordinate with each other, as long as there are no firearms or heavy lethal weapons, Cheng Xiaolian's life will not be in danger.
Although some of the disasters were cleared a few days ago, Yang Youcai still had a doubt in his heart, on the day His Highness was assassinated, how did those people know that His Highness would appear there, and they had prepared bows and arrows in advance, and how did they know what His Highness looked like. This era is not as good as later generations, at most there is a portrait of a person, and it is impossible for everyone to recognize His Highness.
It's just a pity that after the people who were caught, they all said that they were acting on orders, that is, their immediate boss had not been arrested, so Yang Youcai was so worried.
However, the welcoming team successfully arrived at Yuan Zonghao's mansion, Wen Duruo's father was just a doctor, and there was no mansion to build before he became the national abbot, and the family affairs were in such a hurry, and it was too late to build the mansion gate, so he borrowed Yuan Zonghao's mansion gate, and there was no one living in his family anyway.
Confucius led Cheng Xiaolian to the main hall to meet the old man Wen, and then the deacon led Wen Duruo to Fengjiao, because she didn't have too many greetings when she wanted to catch up with the auspicious, so she left here.
At this moment, a fast horse galloped from outside the city: "Eight hundred miles in a hurry!" ”
Qu Songjin immediately stopped the soldier above the city gate: "On the day of your highness's great joy, you must not make noise, and hand over the military information." ”
The information was handed to Qu Songtin in his hand, Qu Songtin opened it and looked at it twice, and immediately changed his face: "Immediately notify the four gates, close the city gates, and prepare for defense." Then he walked quickly to the city, and when he saw a brocade guard on the side of the street, he asked, "Where has Your Highness gone now?" ”
"I heard that I just arrived in Mao's mansion."
Qu Songtin rode on a fast horse and rushed over, less than thirty battles away from Mao's mansion, he was stopped by Jinyiwei: "General Qu, why is this the case on the day of His Royal Highness's great joy?" ”
Qu Songtin stretched out his hand and waved: "Eight hundred miles is urgent, I want to meet His Highness, there is an urgent military situation." ”
Jin Yiwei knew that Qu Songtin was guarding Chengdu, and there must have been something in a hurry, so he immediately let him go, and Qu Songtin blocked Cheng Xiaolian at the door of Mao's mansion.
At this time, the people of the Mao family were sending Cheng Xiaolian out, and they were all startled when they saw Qu Songjin's appearance: "General Qu, what happened?" ”
Qu Songtin stretched out his hand and handed over the intelligence box: "Eight hundred miles to expedite the military situation, Daniel Zhang suddenly went south from Hanzhong, and now he has passed the Baoning Mansion." ”
Yang Youcai stood up suddenly: "Impossible, why didn't Jinyiwei have any news at all?" ”
"The intelligence said that Daniel Zhang was alone and two horses, day and night, but I was afraid that Jinyiwei's intelligence could not outrun them."
Cheng Xiaolian was stunned for a moment: "Sichuan has high mountains and dangerous roads, and it is not a plain land, even if he brings cavalry, how can he run?" ”
"Successive imperial courts have built official roads, there is absolutely no problem with running horses on official roads, and Daniel Zhang does not want to die, our guards and pawns fight with him, he is running in front of him, and now it is not far from Chengdu Mansion."
Cheng Xiaolian frowned: "Is this Daniel Zhang crazy?" Wouldn't he have folded all the people in Sichuan in vain by doing so, and it was meaningless. ”
Confucius sighed: "How can it be meaningless, on the day of His Royal Highness's great joy, Daniel Zhang led the troops to knock on the pass, this time the world is shaken, everyone will think that we are just paper paste, Sichuan will no longer be a paradise, and those who are ready to move will have other thoughts." ”
Cheng Xiaolian waved his hand: "General Qu, for the time being, you have worked hard to defend the city, this family matter must not be delayed, and now that it has reached this point, even if he really starts to attack the city, he has to finish the family matter." ”
Qu Songtin arched his hand: "Your Highness, rest assured, even if it is a thousand troops, I will never let him disturb His Highness's wedding." Then he turned and got on his horse, and went straight to the city.
At this time, the people around him had already known the news, and suddenly became uneasy, Cheng Xiaolian shouted: "Play music!" ”
Since this is the way of playing, Cheng Xiaolian is not worried at all that he can break through Chengdu, presumably Daniel Zhang may not be in the army, but just sent a general to disrupt the wedding.
Presumably Yuan Zonghao has also gotten the news, Shaanxi must have sent someone to pursue him, plus the defenders of these state capitals in Sichuan, they must be allowed to come and go.
Seeing that Cheng Xiaolian was full of confidence, the people around him seemed to be inspired and began to concentrate on doing this family affair.
At the moment when carrying Mao Ruoling's sedan chair set off, the brocade guard at the head of the wall suddenly shouted: "There are assassins!" ”
Yang Youcai and Lu Li were tightly guarding Cheng Xiaolian's side, and the surrounding Jinyi guards suddenly took action, and at this time, Lu Li pulled out the sword in his waist and pointed at a Jinyi guard beside Cheng Xiaolian and fiercely: "You'd better not move, otherwise you'll lose your life." ”
Yang Youcai looked at it at this time: "It turned out to be you." ”
"That's right, that's me. Lord Yang, are you surprised? ”
"Impossible, you have been following me since before entering Burma, how could it be you?"
"People will always become, you have become the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and we people don't seem to have much hope, to be honest, I haven't felt anything unbearable to share hardships with you for so many years, but once I get rich, I feel uncomfortable in my heart."
