Marquis of Shang

Chapter 82 Six Rituals (I came back late today, there are only two updates, sorry.)
At this time, the spring search field hunting in Qinghe Dayi was about to start preparations.

However, the spring search and field hunting in Qinghe Dayi was very different from that in Huangshi Xiaoyi.

It's not just about expelling and killing Qinghe Dayi, all kinds of beasts, mountain spirits and wild monsters in the surrounding area thousands of miles away.

They will also organize a large army to sort out the places where all kinds of powerful barren people and savages gather within the entire Qinghe fief.

Sort out all kinds of naturally born mountain demon spirits and so on.

To sum up, it is to sort out the entire Qinghe fiefdom, now and in the future, all people and things that may endanger Qinghe.

This spring search and field hunt usually lasts for two to three months, and it will slowly end after the spring festival and spring plowing are all completed.

And this time in Qinghe Dayi's Spring Search Field Hunting, Chen Qingxiang took the initiative to win the command of one of the three field hunting armies for Chen Xuling.

With him as the main general, Chen Yinshi and Yi Fengrou are the deputy generals, commanding a thousand soldiers from Qinghe.

Chen Qingxiang's purpose is also very simple, one is to train his own team.

The second is to take advantage of this opportunity of field hunting to completely surrender the middle-of-the-road place where the fierce tiger was sent out to kill the former father, and to kill the leader of the ominous realm who is a potential threat.

What are wild people and savages?

People who hide their origins, hide their lineage, and are in the territory of Dashang, but not ruled by Dashang, are desolate people.

People who have forgotten their origins and blood, and are in the territory of Dashang, but not ruled by Dashang, are savages.

……

And Chen Qingxiang asked Chen Xuling and the three of them to take charge of the Field Hunting Soldier, to sort out all kinds of hidden dangers in the Qinghe fiefdom, and conquer that lowly place by the way.

Itself began to prepare for his marriage event.

After such a long period of consideration, Chen Qingxiang carefully weighed the pros and cons in all aspects, and after weighing, he was still planning to eat a little softer.

Or choose the granddaughter of Doctor Qing's family, who is in her prime.

Chen Qingxiang made this choice mainly based on interests.

Anyway, they are all married, and there is no room for free love.

Definitely choose the one with the best conditions in all aspects.

With the marriage with the Yang family of the Qing doctor, the Qinghe Chen family will have an additional layer of deterrence in addition to the original relationship with Fang Guo's office.

Before officially sitting on the Qinghe scholar-official position, there is another layer of protection.

Can really be foolproof.

……

However, after Chen Qingxiang told his uncle Ren Choucheng and Gaozu Chen Weiyao about his decision, he calmed down and waited slowly.

In this world's mythical great merchants, the marriage system is not as barbaric as the ancient Shang Dynasty before Chen Qingxiang traveled, and has evolved to a certain extent.

Before Chen Qingxiang traveled, the ancient marriage system was similar.

Three books and six rituals are indispensable.

The three books are the letter of appointment, letter of ceremony, and letter of welcome used in the process of the six rituals.

The six rituals refer to the six etiquettes in the whole marriage process from proposal to marriage.

One, accept.

Second, ask the name.

Three, Najib.

Fourth, accept the levy.

Five, please period.

Six, welcome.

It is the complete six rituals.

……

And among these six rituals.

Only the final ceremony of welcoming in person required Chen Qingxiang to be dispatched, asking him, the bridegroom, to go to the woman's house to marry him in person.

For the previous five rituals, my uncle Ren Choucheng, and the great ancestor Chen Weiyao, the elders of the Chen clan were worried, and Chen Qingxiang only had to wait.

According to these six rituals, the various requirements and procedures of the first five rituals are based on the distance between the two parties.

If it is more detailed, slower, or there are any obstacles, it may take several years, or even nearly ten years to complete the five rituals.

Just at that time, the woman grows up.

……

However, in just three days, Chen Qingxiang got the news that his predecessor, Ren Choucheng, would start the Six Ceremonies in early March.

There are two main steps in accepting marriage, one is to propose marriage, and the other is to propose marriage.

He will travel more than ten thousand miles, and as a matchmaker, he will go to the bride's side, and the Baoti Yang clan will propose marriage.

……

Yi, capital, country.

At a distance of more than ten thousand miles from Qinghe, there is a home of nearly one hundred thousand people, a vast central capital with the totem Yuanjing sitting in the town, and the Totem God Realm background.

In the center of the capital is a pagoda like a mountain.

Around this mountain-like pagoda, there are countless palaces and pavilions.

In a garden near the mountain pagoda, outside the gorgeous and simple palace.

A handsome man in his thirties and a soft and beautiful woman in her twenties stood side by side, holding hands.

They looked at a few feet away with smiles on their faces, a cute girl who was only about five years old was playing happily among the flowers.

After a few breaths, the handsome man suddenly turned slightly to look at the woman.

There was a trace of qi and blood circulation, and it was said to the soft and beautiful woman who was close at hand:

"Yun, I have something to tell you."

The soft woman called Yun heard the man's voice transmission, looked sideways at the man, and nodded slightly.

Quietly listening to the man's voice transmission.

Seeing the gentle woman's reaction, the man breathed a sigh of relief, and said slowly through voice transmission:
"Yun, I found a marriage for Ling'er!"

Hearing this, the soft and beautiful woman was taken aback for a moment, and it took a while for her to react.

His complexion and temperament changed, from a soft and beautiful woman to an iceberg beauty, and he asked coldly with the voice of Qi and blood:
"Ling'er is only so old, so you will find a marriage for her?"

Hearing the female voice transmission, he shook his head slightly, and continued to explain through the voice transmission:

"Yun, you should know that five years from now, it's time for me to go to the pagoda of the town clan to conduct the inheritance test."

"If you pass the inheritance test and officially become one of Doctor Qing's heirs, that's okay."

"But if you fail the inheritance test, you will completely lose your qualifications as the heir of Doctor Qing, and you will be trapped for at least ten years."

"But at that time, without me, can the clan arrange Ling'er's marriage as a bargaining chip to arrange a marriage partner?"

……

Hearing the man's explanation, the iceberg-like aura around the woman dissipated without a trace, and she turned into a soft and beautiful woman again.

Looking at the daughter of the year of the chief role, she was silent for a while, and the woman asked through voice transmission:
"Five years later, Ling'er is still young, I'm afraid it's too late to get married."

"At that time, those rivals in the clan will probably also intervene in arranging Ling'er's marriage."

"I'm afraid they will intentionally interfere with it and ruin this marriage."

"Even if this marriage is not ruined, it is very likely that he deliberately made things difficult for the man and made him feel embarrassed. Under such circumstances, if Ling'er married into her husband's family, I am afraid that she will suffer a lot of grievances."

The soft and beautiful woman said with a sad face.

Seeing his wife's appearance like this, the man hugged the woman and said gently:
"Don't worry, ma'am, the husband-in-law I'm looking for for Ling'er this time is Fang Guogong, the son of the current Sheji Lord, and the eldest son of the remaining clan."

"As long as the two parties can complete the first three of the six rituals within five years."

"At the time of the three ceremonies, the man will take away Ling'er's name and birth date. After divination and telling the ancestors of the past generations, the marriage will be stable."

"At that time, unless the clan would rather take the risk of being resented by the Lord of the Land, destroy this marriage."

"Otherwise, within the clan, Ling'er will only be allowed to marry gracefully, and there is absolutely no possibility of intentional sabotage."

"In this way, Ling'er will have no worries about major events in his life, and I can also carry out the inheritance trial with peace of mind."

Hearing the man's words, the gentle woman thought about it carefully and felt satisfied. The sadness all over her body disappeared, and she also hugged the man with both hands, and said softly:

"My husband is very considerate."
