Matrilocal Marriage

King Ning Gaohuai, whose father King Jing was the same mother and brother of His Majesty in the dynasty. King Jing passed away and inherited his father's throne. His Majesty pity and loneliness, and special exception rewards are still used as princes. The title is changed to Ning, and the fief is from Jing. The Huaizhou area in the king's period should be called "Long". In the territory of the Yan Kingdom, "Long" is the collective name of Liangzhou, Yongzhou, the two prefectures and parts of their surrounding areas...

It is said that the old master Jing died of the word "above", and some versions say that the old master did not want to implicate his wife, son, and chose to sever himself.

There is also a version of legend that the old prince was loyal and loyal but was unprovoked by the villain. His Majesty mistakenly believed that the slander wanted to imprison the palace for a thorough investigation. As a result, the old prince was sturdy and smashed to death at the trial held by his majesty himself. Under the imperial rank, His Majesty was shocked and regretted that he ordered the release of the royal family line. In the years that followed, His Majesty had a lot of love and love for King Ning Gaohuai, a relative.

But this is related to the royal secrets, people dare to take it on the table to say, but the honor that King Ning has received since the death of Lao Jing Wang Xie is indeed obvious to all people in the world.

Although King Ning's fief was changed from the original prosperous place to the border, the size of the fief was nearly ten times larger than before, and Gao Huai also had a right that no other prince had: the power of Jiedu.

Perhaps it was the baptism of wind and frost. It is said that King Ning Gaohuai was not arrogant. He was very cautious and cautious. For all festivals, King Ning would send envoys to Beijing with his letters and gifts to his majesty. The emperor will also ask for peace after a long time. He became more and more affectionate for this child, and occasionally called him to stay in Beijing by exception. When King Jing was the prince, the mansion in Beijing was also given to King Ning as a place to stay in Beijing.

King Ning’s grace was the same for a while, and even the princes of the inner court had to be polite to three points when they saw King Ning.

Going southwest from Liangzhou, it is the land of the West Sea and the land junction between Yan Kingdom and Fanbang people. It is guarded by Princess Yongle's husband and wife, General Zhou Da.

I want to have only Longdi from the Central Plains to the West Sea, and vice versa, the fief to which King Ning belongs, invisibly, has become a pass separating the imperial court and the West Sea...

Although his Majesty was able to win the big treasure in the past, King Jing, and Princess Yongle's family contributed a lot, but now the situation...seems to be a little more subtle.

The former Luocheng Mansion Li Qingshan was the uncle of King Gaohuai of Ning. He served as the mansion in Los Angeles for more than ten years. After the second prince sat in the East Palace, the first few things he did was to transfer Li Qingshan in accordance with the regulations, and Li Qingshan’s place of office... …It is the fief of King Ning Gaohuai——Yongzhou.

On the second day when Lin Buxian and Yun'an and his party arrived in Yongzhou, Yun'an asked Lin Buxian to ghostwrite and write a greeting note, sealed the wax and gave it to Saturday along with the small token given by Ning Wang Gaohuai, and ordered him to The invitation was submitted to the Ning Prince's Mansion.

Not everyone can see the nobles of the heavenly family. Even if you send a greeting note, you must have a token bestowed by King Ning, or you must have an official rank or noble rank that can meet King Ning.

When I returned after sending the greeting card on Saturday, I saw Yun'an handing back the token, but he stopped talking several times.

Yunan saw that there was something to say on Saturday, and laughed: "Just say what you want to say, look at you, scratching your head."

On Saturday, I moved to Yun'an, seemingly still immersed in a certain shock and excitement, and "licked" his lips, and asked: "Master, how did you ever hear you say...you and His Royal Highness Ning There is also the old age?"

Yun'an leaned his chin, and replied indifferently: "We have had a few fate, my marriage to the lady is still that of King Ning. Later, I went to the capital and had some intersections for some reason. This token It was also formed at that time. At that time, you guys still became me and the guards. It’s not a big deal. I can’t just talk to everyone, right?” Yun’an remembered that being Lin Bu ?@芭痘比サNa 褰 5 涞擮 Lan Pu miserably exchanged, poke, poke, poke, poke, poke, poke, forgive br/>

Hearing Yun'an said this, the well-informed Saturday couldn’t bear to be surprised: “That’s the favored Royal Highness King Ning among the feudal kings. You can't "touch" the soles of your boots. You have a token from his old man in your hand. How do you feel that you don't care?"

Yun'an grabbed the token in his hand and laughed: "It's just a dead thing, what can be proud of? The affection between people is accumulated through getting along, maybe people Ningwang rewards When this brand was in a good mood, I just threw it out? I want to really use it as an arrow...but it's easy to get into trouble, just treat it with a normal heart. However, since I came to King Ning’s fief, I would naturally go to pay respects. Yun An held up a token and warned him not to reveal the matter when he went out on Saturday. At the end, he said in a joke: "Maybe these big people are used to seeing them respectfully on weekdays, and occasionally encounter something. It's different, but you think it's quite new?"

Saturday seemed to have caught something from Yun'an's words, and what he felt in detail, but his instinct told him: The young man in front of him who is several years younger than himself is not as simple as he saw.

...

The lower-to-up greetings, especially those that span many classes, cannot be measured by ordinary greetings. The day of meeting is still up to King Ning, even if the other party sent a person to pass the message that morning, Yun'an You must also dress neatly immediately and go quickly with gifts.

While waiting for King Ning to be summoned, Yunan turned to visit Li Qingshan's eldest son: Li Kui.

The Yun'an faction asked on Saturday that Li Qingshan continued to report illness after arriving in Yongzhou, so his two sons, Li Kui and Li Yue, were still on sick leave and had been returning to Beijing.

Yan State pays attention to filial piety. In addition to Ding You’s three-year rule, if Gaotang’s parents are ill, they can take time off to serve. There are even specific holiday standards. According to legend, a Beijing official in the past took eight years of sick leave. Although the imperial court asked someone to temporarily replace his position, the payment did not stop until the father of the Beijing official passed away eight years later. This person kept Ding You for three more years. He became sick after suffering and died. Ding You period.

This person’s deeds are also recorded in the "Book of Filial Piety" of the Kingdom of Yan..., so Li Qingshan’s two sons only took a few months of leave. Not only is it not a long time, they might get it when they return to Beijing. Recognition...

Li Kui went to the appointment happily. Although he was dressed plainly, Yun An concluded that Li Qingshan's so-called "illness" contained hidden feelings from his lightheartedness.

However, Yunan was a little wondering, why did Li Qingshan continue to pretend to be sick after he has come to King Ning's fief? What on earth is he "careful" about?

"Brother Li, haven't seen you for a long time, don't come here unharmed, Brother?"

"Brother Lao Xian is concerned, Brother Yu is all well."

Yun An took out a red post from his arms and handed it to Li Kui, saying, "This is a gift list. The gift has been sent to the house..."

"Jin, why should the virtuous brother see things like this?"

"Big brother misunderstood. This was brought by my mother before leaving and passed on to Lingtang. This is also the wish of my mother."

"Since it is the life of the elders, Huaiguwan dare not give up. I thanked my mother here."

...

This Li Kui was good at going in circles and playing dumb riddles. Yun An had already seen it before. Fortunately, he was watching the Yun'an palace fighting drama. When he came here, he was trained by Lin Buxian. His patience improved, and he sat there with Li. When Kui plays Tai Chi, there is not only a bit of impatience, but also timidity.

After talking for half an hour, Li Kui turned his head and asked, "Can Brother Xian have contact with Kong Gu?"

"I just passed a letter with Kong Gu a few days ago. Kong Gu is very confident about Enke this time, and I believe he will return to his hometown soon."

Li Kui sighed, feeling surprised: "Most of the youngest classmates are in Los Angeles. If he can really get in the middle of a time, but such a happy event is like a friend for no reason, hey...Isn't it okay to be friends in my hometown?"

Yun An blinked and didn't change his "color", but he called "good guy" in his heart, dark: As expected, he is an official from the capital, but he is different from ordinary people. If you say you want to inquire about the city of Los Angeles, you just go straight. Asked, "It's okay for the elders in my hometown".

Yunan wanted to laugh a little. It seems that this "gossip" can only do it by himself, but don't blame me for carrying private goods...

"Before I left, something big happened in Los Angeles."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"I heard... that the newly appointed Master Zhong was beaten up in the street by a beggar. The beggar seemed to call "dog official" and "corrupt official" all the time, and ran away after he was done."

Li Kui didn't change his face and said, "If there is an injustice, you can beat the drum and complain. It is a felony to assault the imperial court official in the street. In my opinion... it's just a spoiler."

"Why is this?"

"Master Zhong's status is different now. He must be full of ambitions and want to make some achievements. How can he be trapped by such petty gains? Are you right?"

Li Kui smiled kindly, seeming to be defending Zhong Xiaoting, but Yun An heard his overtones, which was to remind her of Zhong Xiaoting's status as a relative of the emperor.

But... I am just a low-class merchant, and a son-in-law who has entered the mansion, that is, the wealthy aunt of Lin Mansion. What is it to put in front of the gentry?

What kind of value is there in his own body, is it worth Li Kui's so much trouble?

Yun'an is puzzled. He will count on "sex" to see what kind of "medicine" Li Kui actually sells in the gourd, and Shun also gives him some vents.

"Who said no? The second prince sits in the East Palace, and Master Zhong has become a relative of the emperor. How can these petty little profits be worthy of him? Like the little brother, this is not influential... even the head I dare not stretch it anymore."

"Listening to Brother Xian's words, is there something unspeakable?"

"I really don't want to tell you... Tell me, and hope that the eldest brother will keep the younger brother secret?"

"This is natural."

"Actually... the little brother brought his wife and Xiruan to Yongzhou for a long distance this time to avoid the limelight, because the little brother had a misunderstanding with Master Zhong before. He is now the Qingtian parent official. The little brother is afraid of being accounted for by the autumn queen and ran away. If you come to Yongzhou to hide for a while, if...the situation is not good, you will have to ask Brother Li to help you find a place to stay." Anyway, Li Kui can’t go to check, let’s talk first, in case Aunt Liu gives birth to a son. Fortunately, there is an unobtrusive retreat.
