Little Detective of the Tang Dynasty: What to do if you are beheaded at the beginning?

Cui Mengzhu wears Ming Dynasty Hanfu, which is obviously different from the Tang Dynasty clothing style.

Influenced by film and television dramas, later generations believe that Tang people wear a hezi to cover their chest, and the chest-length skirt looks more exposed. In fact, the folks wear it conservatively, and only court ladies will half-expose their breasts.

The Ming Dynasty Hanfu is basically a combination of a horse-faced skirt + a vertical collar and a large-collared shirt, and a cloak is put on the outside, which is tightly wrapped and looks more conservative.

Compared with the Tang Dynasty, the difference between the Ming Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty is that the Ming Dynasty dress is short on the top and long on the bottom, gradually lengthening the top and shortening the length of the exposed skirt.

The difference in clothing between the two dynasties is mainly affected by the climate of the times.

The climate in the Tang Dynasty was extremely hot, and it is said to be hotter than today. Bai Juyi once wrote a poem "The feet are steaming with hot earth, and the back is burning with scorching sunlight."

In the Ming Dynasty, the climate entered a cold period, so if people did not wrap themselves tightly, they would be frozen to death when they went out.

The fundamental reason why Cui Mengzhu chose Ming Dynasty Hanfu is that her figure is really too explosive.

Ming Dynasty Hanfu can well cover her graceful figure, and the overall look is dignified and virtuous.

Another point is that the Ming Dynasty had already created a tie-up bra, which is a small vest with a front button.

The shoulders and the front are connected by laces, and there are laces or pearl buttons on the chest. The eyes can see the hand movements, which is convenient for wearing.

It’s not hot, and the clothes she wears are made of relatively breathable silk.

Cui Mengzhu’s clothes look a bit strange to people in this era, but surprisingly, they have received a lot of praise.

Sure enough, the aesthetics of the Han people are all common.

The women of the Wang family came up and asked her where she bought this dress.

When they learned that Song Zhen spent a lot of money to find someone to customize it for her, many women showed envious eyes.

Song Zhen’s behavior of pampering his wife made the women of the Wang family soar in favor of him.

Surprisingly, the Wang family of Qi County actually arranged representatives to attend the banquet.

The Wang family of Jinyang and the Wang family of Qi County rarely interacted with each other. Because of the establishment of the Wang Family Academy, the two big families have become more closely connected than before.

Wang He first congratulated Song Zhen on his promotion to the head of the Nine Ministers on behalf of the Wang family of Jinyang, and then the representative of the Wang family of Qi County also toasted him.

Song Zhen became the most handsome guy in the whole banquet, and everyone was around him.

His fiancée Cui Mengzhu attracted much attention because of this, and the wives showed their affection to her and asked her for advice on how to control her husband.

After taking a sip of wine, Wang He sighed: "Sir, I really didn't expect that you would sit in such a high position after half a year of absence."

Song Zhen laughed and said: "It's all thanks to your majesty's appreciation that I can have this opportunity."

"The favor of the saint is one aspect, and the most important thing is that you have real talent and knowledge."

"You are too kind."

The style of the whole banquet highlights the worldly wisdom of a person.

Originally, little Wang Bo planned to follow his elders to Chang'an to learn medicine in a few years.

But Wang He changed his mind immediately when he received the news that Song Zhen had become the Minister of the Ministry of Rites at a young age.

He told little Wang Bo not to wait for a few years and to go and hang out with the teacher.

Because the Ministry of Rites governed eight major departments in the Tang Dynasty, including the Imperial Medical Department.

First, it could enhance the relationship between the Wang family of Taiyuan and Song Zhen, and second, it could allow little Wang Bo to get better education conditions.

Why not?

The Wang family of Qi County also wanted to arrange for their clansmen, but they were embarrassed to bring it up.

After the banquet, the elders of the two major families of the Wang family of Taiyuan expressed their loyalty to Song Zhen, and expressed in both open and covert ways that they wanted Song Zhen to arrange some positions for them.

Song Zhen just smiled faintly, neither agreeing nor refusing.

Di Renjie came with an old man and introduced him: "Shouzheng, this is my father."

Song Zhen hurriedly bowed and said: "Hello, Mr. Di."

Di Zhixun hunched over, and his old eyes looked at Song Zhen, then smiled and said: "I often heard Huaiying mention you in his letters."

"Oh? Really?" Song Zhen glanced at Di Renjie.

"I was curious before, and today I see that you are indeed extraordinary and promising at a young age."

Song Zhen is now one of the nine ministers, and it is not an exaggeration to call him "Your Excellency".

"You are too kind, Mr. Di." Song Zhen said modestly.

"In the future, Huaiying will need your care in the court."

"No need for Master Di to tell me, I will do it myself."

After Song Zhen left, Di Zhixun sighed: "Huaiying, your friend is not an ordinary person."

"Father, Shouzheng is among the nine ministers at a young age, so he must be capable."

"No, no, no, I'm not talking about his ability, but about him as a person."

Di Renjie was puzzled.

"I see three shadows between his eyebrows, do you know what this means?"

"You don't know,Please explain, Master."

Di Zhixun did not answer. He solemnly told Di Renjie, "Huaiying, you must remember this. You must not do what he did in the future."

"Why?" Di Renjie was stunned, indicating that he did not understand.

"It is useless to say more. You will know in the future. If you follow his example, he will be fine, but you will be killed. ”

......

The next day, the clan members of the Fenzhou Song family could not wait to send people and cars to take Song Zhen and others home.

It can be seen that they are very anxious.

The clan of the Fenzhou Song family is not large, only one-tenth of the Jinyang Wang family.

It can be seen that they are indeed a poor family.

If Song Zhen is not included in the Fenzhou Song family, there is only Song Lingwen in the court, which is miserable.

And Song Lingwen, who was the left guard general at the time, is currently guarding the city gate in Luoyang.

He learned that there was a nine minister in the clan, so he quickly asked for leave to go home.

Later, I learned that Song Zhen was not a member of the Fenzhou Song family. He was just a nominal member and had not yet recognized his ancestors.

However, just being a nominal member is also a great honor for the Fenzhou Song family.

And today, Song Zhen plans to take Tian Qi and Song Ruoshui to "recognize their ancestors".

"Shouzheng, I finally waited for you to come. "Song Zhang, the elder of the Fenzhou Song clan, was as enthusiastic as if he had seen his long-lost family.

Other Fenzhou Song clan members stretched their necks to see the appearance of the legendary Nine Ministers.

When they saw that Song Zhen was so young, they were amazed.

At the same time, a sense of pride rose in their hearts. Look, this is the darling of our Fenzhou Song clan, who has been ranked among the Nine Ministers at the age of coming of age!

It is really a feat that has never been done before and probably will never be done again.

When they learned that Song Zhen and Cui Mengzhu, the legitimate daughter of the Qinghe Cui clan, had secretly decided to spend their lives together, they were even more amazed.

The Qinghe Cui clan was one of the Five Surnames and Seven Famous Clan. Although it was ruined by Song Zhen, the family foundation was there, which was not something that the Fenzhou Song clan could look up to.

In addition, Song Zhen was on good terms with the Taiyuan Wang clan and the Fanyang Lu clan. As long as he was included in the genealogy of the Fenzhou Song clan, it would be a huge boost for the clan.

In ancient times, the family Clan and genealogy are of great significance to a person.

Not only is it the inheritance and carrier of family history and culture, but it is also the evidence of a person's status.

Influenced by the deep-rooted "filial piety culture", acknowledging one's ancestors is to be grateful to one's ancestors, to bring honor to one's family, and to bring honor to one's family.

However, it is not appropriate for Song Zhen.

He is in a strong position. He can completely set up his own family. However, it takes too much time and energy to establish a family and make it famous all over the world. Song Zhen does not want to do this.

The ancestor worship ceremony will be held the next day, so tonight, the two sides will meet and exchange interests.

The Fenzhou Song family put forward their conditions.

Song Zhen crossed his legs and tapped the table with his fingers. After listening to the other party's words, he said expressionlessly.

"I don't think you put yourself in the right position."

"We have nothing to talk about."

"Goodbye."
