Chapter 36 Moving the County (II)

Chengdu Songjia

Since the last conversation, both Song Han and Song Heng have paid attention to the war in Jishui County.

Therefore, Wenyang Mansion received the news, and it was only the afternoon of the next day, and the Song family in Chengdu also got the letter.

Responsible for collecting this news, it was Song Ziye, the eldest son of the Song family, who received the news, he was stunned for a while, and only then woke up suddenly after being reminded by his subordinates.

Immediately, he didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly walked towards his father's study.

knocked on the door a few times and said his identity, and Song Han's voice came from inside: "Come in." ”

After pushing the door in, he found that his second uncle Song Heng was also there.

Song Heng is naturally not an outsider, Song Ziye handed over the secret report directly to his father.

opened it and looked at the contents inside, and after taking a closer look, Song Han suddenly fell silent.

Song Ziye stood there, waiting for his father to ask.

Sure enough, after a while, Song Han handed over the secret report in his hand to the second brother on the side, and asked the eldest son in front of him: "Have you read the contents inside?"

"My son has seen it. Song Ziye nodded and responded.

"Tell me what you think. Song Han said lightly.

Song Ziye hesitated, as if he was a little reluctant, but he could only say: "From this battle, it can be seen that this son is very good!"

"Second brother, what do you think?" Song Han looked to the side again and asked.

Song Heng was sitting there looking at the information.

Soon, after reading the information, Song Heng did not have the same expressionless expression as the eldest brother, and when he raised his head, he was already surprised.

"This Wang Shoutian actually took Taisu County? It's really unimaginable!"

"Yes, this matter, I didn't expect it to be such a result before, I was still thinking that day, if this Wang Shoutian can really win, he will be a good man, but I didn't expect it, this son is so powerful. ”

Song Han stroked his long beard and couldn't help but sigh: "This son is really extraordinary!"

Seeing Song Han's words, he was quite amazed by this Wang Shoutian, Song Ziye had already heard something, but he was busy whispering: "Father, don't you still want to marry You'er to him?"

Although Wang Shoutian admired Song Ziye very much, Song Ziye was young and vigorous, and he cherished his sister very much, and he had always been angry about Wang Shoutian marrying a flat wife.

"What do you think?" Song Han asked the eldest son in turn.

"Father, although Wang Shoutian won a big victory this time, it was also because of Liu Siming's death, although his son Liu Chaoyi succeeded to the throne, it was difficult to control his arrogant generals, so he sent troops privately, and as a result, Wang Shoutian won, if Liu Siming did not die, then there was such a thing?"

Liu Siming is good at riding and shooting, wise and sensitive, and has a good way of managing troops.

"What you said is not wrong, if Liu Siming had not died, Wang Shoutian would indeed not be able to defeat Taisu County, and if he had been defeated, he would not be able to eat, so he had to quit. ”

"But there is no if, the luck represented by luck is also strength, and it is one of the largest pieces, no matter what Wang Shoutian relies on to succeed, at least now he has laid down Taisu County, and may occupy it for a long time, and Changding Town is declining, this is almost an iron fact. ”

"From this point of view, the time for the Wang family to unify the two towns will not be very long, and there will be another strong town in Shuzhong!" Song Han said with emotion.

"Big brother, you have to think about this matter, if you really respond to him, then I'm afraid my Song family's face will be ......" Song Heng on the side also reminded him.

can say it directly to his son, but Song Han doesn't answer directly to his younger brother, but only asks: "Second brother, do you remember what you and I talked about that day?"

"What did the eldest brother say?"

"It's the one who tells the truth, do you remember this?" Song Han said lightly.

"The little brother remembers himself, could it be that the eldest brother found something?"

"Why do you have to deliberately investigate this matter, do you know that during this period of time, there have been several incidents of extermination in Wenyang Mansion?" Song Han said rhetorically.

"This ...... The little brother didn't know. "Song Heng has been busy with business recently, how can he know about the trivial matters of other prefectures and counties?

Song Han didn't think that he would know about it, but he had to make it clear to his second brother and eldest son.

He continued: "One of the incidents is from Wang Shoutian Futian Village, he studied in the private school Mr. Natian, and overnight, he was destroyed, and his neighbors were also killed, it was ordered by Wang Zunzhi's relatives, and the secretary Lang Li Xian personally led the troops. You're just afraid you don't know about this, right?"

"How can such a thing?" Hearing this, the other two in the room gasped.

"This Mr. Tian is the one who spread the news of his wife, and what he has encountered now can already show Wang Zun's meaning. ”

Song Ziye thought of something else, and said angrily: "Father, what do you mean, if my Song family does not agree to this marriage, this Wang Zunzhi will attack my Song family? But my Song family is far away in Wenyang Mansion, and this is not the place under the jurisdiction of his Wang Zunzhi, does he have such ability?"

"What Zi Ye said is true, no matter how arrogant this Wang Zunzhi is, it is impossible to treat me to the Song family, right?" Song Heng also didn't believe it, and said.

Song Han smiled bitterly and said, "You think of other places, but what you said is also a possibility." ”

"Naturally, it won't happen now, Shu is not unified, he doesn't have the ability, but what about the future? This big battle shows Wang Shoutian's qualifications as the town marshal, and as the next heir, it is a sure thing, even if my Song family does not agree to marry, it will not shake Wang Shoutian's foundation. In this case, if Wang Shoutian gets this Shu land in the future, how should my Song clan deal with itself?"

"Even if we can't unify Shu and occupy a few more counties, it can have a huge impact on my Song family's business, if we don't negotiate with it, it's okay, and if we regret it, what will be the consequences?"

Song Ziye opened his mouth and wanted to refute, thinking of Wang Shoutian's talent, he closed it again.

This son, in the future, will really be the envoy of the festival, but I am afraid that even if he may not be able to unify Shu, he may also occupy two or three counties, at that time, how should the Song family deal with themselves?

Not to mention the unification of Shu, the unification of Shu, if you complain against the King of Shu, what is the difference between the Song family at that time and the Tian family today?

"What's more, this son is only married to a flat wife, and after Li Chengye, the son of the Li family, married the adopted daughter of Wang Zunzhi, didn't he also take a few concubines? When it comes to the family, which one is not higher than the commoner? If it seems like this, it is just the daughter of a commoner who has no clan to rely on, even if she has the position of a flat wife, it is only the honor of one person, and with my Song family, how can her son become the heir? If this matter is viewed from this point of view, it is not a bad thing. Song Han said lightly.

"Big brother, the ...... between the markets"

"The rumors in the market are just manpower-led, and after a while, it will really become a thing, who still has the leisure to say this? It's just to prevent the marriage between the two clans of the king and the Song dynasty, and someone with a heart is just adding fuel to the fire. Song Han thought about it and didn't care about it anymore.

But he was wronged by You'er. Song Heng said with a sigh on the side.

Knowing this matter, the eldest brother has already made up his mind, but the eldest daughter of the Song family is on an equal footing with a commoner daughter, calling her sisters, but she is really a little wronged by her niece.

Most of the daughters of big clans can tolerate their husbands having concubines, but they can't tolerate their husbands marrying a flat wife, which involves more self-interest and face problems, but has little to do with feelings.

Song Han sighed and said, "It's really bitter." ”

He didn't tell these two people clearly, but these truths were explained to him by his daughter, if not, how could he agree to this marriage?

If a woman is like this, what more can a husband ask for?

I only hope that this Wang Shoutian can treat his daughter well and achieve something, if this is the case, this clan will fully support this Wang Shoutian.

can hold the two counties, sit firmly in the big position, and have the financial resources and talent support of the Song family, this Shu may not be able to compete.

Since the elder brother has made a decision, Song Heng will not say more, but just remind: "Big brother, then Wang Yan has been living in Chengdu for a week, if he is willing to get married, he will complete the next employment. ”

There are generally six types of Chinese weddings, so they are called "six rites", namely Nacai, asking for names, Najib, Nazheng, inviting dates, and welcoming in person.

But now, the "Six Rites" have been simplified into three rituals: acceptance, hiring, and greeting.

Nacai, that is, the meaning of choice, that is, the man chooses his wife. The man wants to choose the daughter of a certain family as his wife, so he asks the matchmaker to transport the woman to test the woman's intentions, and this step has been completed.

The following is the key to the next engagement, the man will send the dowry, at this time, if you accept it, you must give a marriage contract, with the eight characters of men and women on it.

Once this step is determined, even if the marriage between the two families is established, it is the most important and distinctive part of ancient Chinese marriage customs, even the "Son of Heaven" is unavoidable, and it is difficult to regret it.

After the male family gets the marriage certificate, he should offer the marriage certificate to the ancestor in front of the god throne and report that the ancestor has married a certain family.

Regret in front is not a big deal, if you regret the marriage after the dowry, according to the ancient rites, it is a great shame, and hatred can be knocked into the marrow, even if Wang Shoutian kills the Song family in the future, public opinion will not feel brutal.

Of course, the Song family will not do this, even if it is against the husband, it will be disgraced.

At this time, Song Han listened, nodded and said, "That's true!"

At such a decisive moment, Wang Shoutian, who was far away in Taisu County, was receiving an order to prepare a horse and prepare to go to Fuzhong.

"My lord, this is up to us. Xue Yuan said: "I have made a preliminary inventory, and there are more than 1,000 households with or without land, all of which can be moved to Jishui County to enrich their household registration." ”

Wang Shoutian laughed: "If Mr. can fill 3,000 households, he will not hesitate to promote the officials." ”

"Why did the lord say this, the lord promoted me to the grass, don't say that there is an official, even if there is no official, the minister will do his best, and do the work of the dog and horse for the lord. Xue Yuan said.

Wang Shoutian couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, waved his hand and said, "It's me who is reckless...... Huh?"

Yesterday, on the top, there was a thick red gas, circling, but there was no device to hold, just now, there was another cloud on the top, although it was white, but it was extremely thick, almost above the white gas in the entire Jishui County.

The two parts of the cloud hanging on the top, and then separated, are not confused.

These qi numbers, I am afraid that the instrument of the seventh grade may not be accommodated, and for a while, Wang Shoutian was really happy and worried, and he was in the distress of happiness.

"Lord?" Xue Yuan couldn't help but wonder when he saw that the lord was suddenly stunned.

“...... It's okay, I'll go see Dashuai, and I'll leave all the things here to you. Wang Shouxin no longer hesitated, and was ready to go to the palace earlier, and get the big weapon a day earlier, so as not to waste some things.

It is a pity to know that although the number of qi will not dissipate quickly, there will always be a slight waste.
