The Jin army besieged the city, and the Song emperor’s daughter died

Chapter 92 Purple Matchmaker
Seeing the word "haha" in Zhao Fujin's imperial review, Zhao Gou felt that the fourth sister was quite happy with his record of suppressing bandits in Erlong Mountain.

In a good mood, Zhao Gou did not object to Zhang Youcai's request. He only said that they should leave matters of marriage and the relationship between men and women alone.

So Zhang Youcai found someone to write a letter of peace and departure and gave it to Mrs. Liu. Mrs. Liu was overjoyed and immediately found Yue Fei and handed over the letter of peace and departure.

"Gai heard that the couple has a deep love, and the couple has a lot of meaning. They cherish the joy of being together (three sounds of jin), and think about the joy of being in the same cell... Eight years of love are now here. One parting and two widths, I hope that we will be together forever and have a bright future. Like a brocade. On March [-], the first year of Jingkang, Mrs. Liu, the wife of Xiangzhou."

With more than a hundred words written eloquently, it looks like a brilliant literary talent, but it is actually a template document.

In the Song Dynasty, the documents for divorce and wife release were all like this. They focused on feelings of friendship and never used harsh words.

As for the Song Dynasty's reconciliation, later generations often find it incredible. How could a woman write a document?In particular, Cheng Yi, a Neo-Confucian scholar in the Northern Song Dynasty, said: "It is a small matter to starve to death, but it is a big matter to lose one's integrity." Some people in later generations thought that Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism was suppressing women's right to remarry, but this is not the case.Cheng Yi himself was not only not annoyed by the woman's remarriage, but also very happy, as evidenced by the "Henan Cheng Family's Suicide Notes".

In addition, the father and son of Su Zhe and the Su family believe that Neo-Confucianism is dregs. Human beings are born to focus on free humanity. How can they be deceived by some demonic words?

Comparing the fans of the Cheng Yi brothers with Sansu is the comparison between the L3 author and the Twelve Heavenly Kings of Dianniang.

Therefore, the influence of Neo-Confucianism in the Northern Song Dynasty was extremely limited.

If you don't believe it, just look at how Li Gefei, a member of the Su family, raised his daughter.

After Yue Fei read the letter of He Li, signed his name with his pen, he stood up and saluted. This was the end of a bad relationship!

What has an end must have a beginning, and Yue Fei begins to worry about another major issue - the method of marriage requires a matchmaker.

Although this is a law of the Tang Dynasty and there is no explicit law in the Song Dynasty, in the secular concept, a marriage without a matchmaker does not count.

So Yue Fei spent the past few days digging holes with the mighty army at night, and had to look for matchmakers in Taiyuan City during the day.

Although there was no matchmaker who was familiar with him and had some status, fortunately there were official matchmakers in the Song Dynasty. However, when the official media in Taiyuan City heard that Yue Fei was a soldier in the army, they were too lazy to pay attention to him.

To act as a matchmaker for a soldier in the army is not to lower one's status!

No!

Helpless, Yue Fei could only find a private matchmaker. Private matchmakers only value profits and seek wealth. They are no different from Lily and Jiayuan in later generations. They just need to give money.

It's a pity that Yue Fei is penniless and hasn't even received the first month's salary. Fortunately, Li Wa asked Yang Zaixing to secretly stuff Yue Fei with some money. Yue Fei then found a cheaper one and explained the marriage in detail. .

Unexpectedly, within a day, the matchmaker regretted it: "This matchmaker can't talk about it, you'd better find someone else."

Yue Fei didn't ask the reason, so he took the money and went to find several matchmakers, but they all got the same answer. When he asked carefully about the reason, no one was willing to tell.

After two days of this, Yue Fei was exhausted.

Yang Zaixing had a bad temper. Seeing that his brother was in trouble at every turn, he knew there must be something hidden, so he sneaked into a matchmaker's house at night, picked her up, and plucked out the old hens that laid eggs in front of her: "You old woman, why don't you tell me?"

Seeing Yang Zaixing's ferocious look and taut muscles, the old matchmaker was so frightened that she lost control: "Team Zhang... Team Zhang..."

How could a small escort team be so capable?

After Yang Zaixing inquired, he found out that this talented ancestor was engaged in business in Taiyuan City and was considered a wealthy family.

There is no power in relying on power, but there is money.

Hearing that Yue Fei had divorced on the same day, he went to find a matchmaker to make another marriage appointment. Mrs. Liu was displeased. She had the mentality that it was okay for her to cheat, but the other party's seamless connection was unforgivable!

In order to please the Liu family, Zhang Youcai secretly followed Yue Fei. As long as he looked for a matchmaker, Zhang Youcai would be there. Yue Fei would give him ten guans, and Zhang Youcai would give him [-] guans. Yue Fei, who was causing trouble, would not be at peace.

Yang Zaixing was furious. If sister Li Wa hadn't persuaded him, Yang Zaixing would have wanted to shoot him.

"You have joined the army, so you can't be so reckless. Mr. Yue hates it the most. You should abide by the law." Yang Zaixing spat: "What should I do? Isn't it okay to go to the Yamen and sue others?"

Li Wa has also been anxious these days. She just went out to inquire and learned a piece of news: "I heard that a matchmaker recently came to Tongfu Restaurant. She is not from Taiyuan City. Why don't you ask Mr. Yue to try again?"

After Yang Zaixing heard this, he looked for Yue Fei and went together.

"Brother Yue, we have agreed in a moment that we will have the matchmaker sign a document directly. Don't let Zhang Youcai come to cause trouble again."

Not long after, the two of them arrived at Tongfu Restaurant. After asking for the guest room where the matchmaker from out of town lived, they went upstairs and knocked on the door.

As soon as the door opened, Yue Fei was stunned!

I saw a little girl of fifteen or sixteen years old with some baby fat sitting in the room, staring at me with a pair of big watery eyes.

Yang Zaixing clasped his fists: "Little girl, we are here to find a matchmaker. Is your master here?"

The little girl stood up, put her hands behind her back, and came to Yang Zaixing while hiding her steps. She looked Yang Zaixing up and down and said, "Are you Yue Fei?"

Yang Zaixing was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Girl, do you know Yue Fei?"

The little girl shook her head: "I've heard of it!"

Yang Zaixing patted Yue Fei beside him and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Brother Yue, a small soldier, would be so famous."

Yue Fei looked embarrassed and bowed: "Please ask your master to come out and see me."

The little girl turned her head again and looked at it carefully: "So you are Yue Fei?"

Yue Fei smiled and said: "Exactly."

The little girl circled around Yue Fei again: "Well, yes, but you are not lucky enough to see my master. If you have anything to say, just tell me."

Yue Fei was stunned: "I heard that your master can be a matchmaker for others. I wonder if it is an official matchmaker or a private matchmaker?"

The little girl pursed her lips and smiled: "Oh, let's hire someone to be a matchmaker. Then there's no need to bother my master, I can do it!"

Yang Zaixing chuckled and laughed again: "You kid, you haven't even been married yet, are you acting as a matchmaker for others?"

The little girl blushed, reached out and untied her shawl, then turned around, put her hands on her hips, and said angrily: "Open your eyes and take a good look. Who are you looking down on?"

Yang Zaixing and Yue Fei were stunned at the same time: "Purple-clothed matchmaker?"

Matchmakers in the Song Dynasty were divided into different levels. The highest-level matchmakers wore purple backs and were called purple-clad matchmakers. These matchmakers did not accept marriages from ordinary people at all, but only acted as matchmakers for the royal family and officials of third rank or above.

The two of them never expected that this half-grown girl would turn out to be the matchmaker in purple!

Yue Fei squeezed the money in his pocket and Nuonuo asked, "How much money do you need?"

The little girl turned around and asked, "How many do you have?"

Yue Fei obediently took out a dozen coins from his pocket: "That's it!"

The little girl took one look and smiled: "Okay, I'll take these from you. Come on, write down the woman's name and birthday."

Yue Fei was overjoyed, he didn't expect that he would agree?

Just as he was about to step forward, Yang Zaixing grabbed him, winked and whispered, "Is this a liar?"
