Hee Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 175
In the early morning of the next day, when New Year's Eve came, in front of Yuan Xi, several servant girls were holding a long gown with patterns of seven chapters of Chinese insects, mountains, and axe, in colorful and extremely vivid colors, with red shoes and shoes on them. , the demeanor is very good, just look at it, and you will feel extravagant.

"It's not necessary!" Yuan Xi looked at it for a while, then turned to look at Zhen Mi, who was a little excited, with a wry smile on his lips.

Zhen Mi was also wearing a bright red fairy dress, and said softly: "Today is the New Year's Eve feast, and my husband will meet all levels of civil and military officials. Since he has been canonized by the emperor as a marquis, of course he must wear a crown dress, so as not to lose his status. It is also more awe-inspiring to the courtiers."

"But it's too troublesome to wear this. You can see that the sleeves are almost dragging to the floor. You also know the habit of being a husband. I prefer something more comfortable and casual." Yuan Xi pointed to the huge cuff of Hou Fu, and said with some displeasure .

"Husband, don't worry, you don't need to wear it every day, just wear it on festivals, ceremonies, and grand ceremonies." Zhen Mi personally took the Hou clothes over, and gestured to Yuan Xi, with a trace of anticipation on her beautiful face.

Yuan Xi shook his head helplessly, so he could only put on this gorgeous Hou clothes slowly. Several maids quickly hung up various accessories on it, and Zhen Mi personally put on the crown for Yuan Xi.

As the saying goes, people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. When Yuan Xi put on everything and waved his sleeves slightly, several servant girls were stunned.

With a slender and strong figure, Hou Fu was completely propped up, and the whole person was full of honor and luxury. His jet-black hair was gathered in a red crown, and a long Zhuyu hairpin was inserted straight through. His eyes were as bright as stars. , with a cold majesty, and a kind of mystery that makes people intoxicated, especially when the nobility of Hou Fu is matched with Yuan Xi's own calm temperament, it has the prestige and charm of a king coming.

"How?" Yuan Xi asked with a smile.

The servant girl immediately lowered her head shyly, not daring to look any further, Zhen Mi took a step forward and exclaimed, "Husband, it turns out that the crown suit is the most suitable for you."

"Haha, that's good. The military advisers are still waiting for me. I will go to the army to work in the morning. You should rest as much as possible and give it to Yi Zhen as much as possible." Yuan Xi softly ordered, and the women's family will also have a banquet for the women's family. It stands to reason It should be hosted by the wife Zhen Mi, but now that she is pregnant, it is not as convenient as before.

"Husband, rest assured," Zhen Mi replied with a smile.

"Okay" Yuan Xi turned around and slowly stepped out of the bedroom door, only to see Hu Niuer and Liu Quan waiting.

"Greetings to Lord Hou," Hu Niu'er and Liu Quan shouted excitedly as they looked at Yuan Xi, who was dressed in Houfu, extremely majestic and extravagant.

Yuan Xi nodded, "Let's go"

"promise!"

. . . . .

The New Year's Eve banquet is divided into two parts. The first part is the labor army. All the major armies under Yuan Xi brought a group of elites to compete in riding and archery, martial arts, and the now popular Cuju sport. Winners will be rewarded. Those who win will also be comforted.

The second part is the dinner party, where Yuan Xihui invites civil and military officials from all levels to enter the new year together in the main hall of the Governor's Mansion.

Lao Jun's location is located in a barracks outside the city of Jixian County, where a huge circular test field has been built, and more than 3000 soldiers can be seated in two rows. The position in front is naturally where Yuan Xi and the civil and military ministers watched.

When it was almost noon, Yuan Xing's competition field was already full of soldiers, shouting one after another, and a dazzling banner was flying in each area, "Iron Guard", "Raging Wave", "Wind Rider", "Blood Tiger", "Shanggu" and so on.

Below the viewing platform, the competition field is a square surrounded by a huge runway. In addition to the arena, target shooting, etc., it is a large Cuju field. At this time, many soldiers have come here, or They were moving their bodies, checking the weapons, or comforting the restless horses. Besides them, there were also some scribes arranging the order of appearance.

This competition field was built by Yuan Xi personally instructing the Government Affairs Hall. It borrowed some settings from later generations. It feels a bit like a sports meeting, but of course it is much rougher.

On the viewing platform in the center, military generals, civil servants, and some nobles, wealthy businessmen, seniors, etc. were all present. Only Yuan Xi, Li Ru, Han Yan, and Pang Tong, the four top officials of Youzhou, had not come yet. , Wenwu Jingwei divided into two sides, and a long table covered with a red soft carpet in the center separated them. This is naturally where Yuan Xi will sit.

"Zilong, how many people from your Wind Cavalry Army participated?" Jiao Touch looked at Zhao Yun who was beside him, and asked curiously.

Zhao Yun smiled, "It's incomparable with Brother Jiao, there are only 16 people."

"The 16 people are quite a lot. You Beiping just established the Zhongbei Army, and Ming didn't expect such a big scene. Only nine people participated." Li Ming said with a wry smile. In a few days, the generals also became familiar with each other. Li Ming got along best with Zhao Yun because of the Battle of Guangping Plain, but it was also mainly because of Zhao Yun's character, which was relatively easy-going.

On the other side, Zhen Shu, who had just arrived, was sitting among the civil servants, looking at the huge square in front of him and the crowds of soldiers on both sides, and exclaimed, "What a big scene!"

"It costs more than 1000 gold just to decorate here. Lord Hou just wants to have fun with the soldiers." Zhen Yan said with a smile. The news that Yuan Xi canonized as Marquis of Anyou has spread rapidly, and their titles have naturally changed.

"No wonder you keep saying in your letter how noble Xian Yi is in Youzhou. Just this move will make the soldiers love him so much." Zhen Shu looked at the excited soldiers and said with a sigh.

"Hou Yexiong is very talented, loves the people, and is considerate of the soldiers. In the future, he will fly nine times and command everything. It's just a matter of time," Zhen Yan said with a look of reverence.

Zhen Shu glanced at it unexpectedly, and after seeing the unparalleled loyalty in his eyes, he immediately smiled. It seems that the fortune-teller for Mi'er really has some skills. He originally thought that after marrying Yuan Xi, it would be impossible for him to be married to a queen. It's just nonsense, now it seems that the once mediocre Second Young Master, the current governor of Youzhou, Anyouhou is hiding too deeply.

"This daughter is from our Zhen family," Zhen Shu said suddenly and firmly.

Zhen Yan was taken aback for a moment, and then praised: "Uncle is wise, my Zhen family has been completely united with Lord Hou, and everyone is hurt, and everyone is prosperous."

After Zhen Shu nodded, he said solemnly: "We need to send a few more maids to serve your sister in the inner mansion. We need those who are absolutely loyal, and nothing will happen to Mi Er's child."

"Uncle, don't worry, Xiu'er will visit my sister every day," Zhen Yan said.

Hearing the name Xiu'er, Zhen Shu immediately frowned, his face quite dissatisfied.

Zhen Yan smiled wryly, and said in a low voice: "Uncle, actually Xiu'er is really kind to me, you can see that too"

"Hmph, if you hadn't told me that she is General Zilong's sister, and the promise made by Lord Hou, I would never have allowed her to enter the gate of my Zhen family." Zhen Shu said angrily, the best next generation of the Zhen family , unexpectedly went to a widow as the main wife, and she laughed generously when she said it.

Zhen Yan sighed suddenly, it seems that it will take some time for the uncle to accept it.

At this time, after a high-pitched horn sounded, at the gate of the competition field, suddenly a group of guards with bright armors rushed out on big horses, and then four carriages entered slowly. The three vehicles were much larger and more luxurious. General Hu Niuer and Deputy General Yu Rui of the Guards Battalion just followed on both sides.

Now it became quiet in an instant, and the soldiers looked over adoringly one by one, and everyone knew that Yuan Xi had arrived.
