Chapter 118 The Second Year of the Earth Emperor

"It's going to be the twelfth month of winter, where can I go for you and other geese?"

Ma Yuan's request stumped Wan Xiu. At this time, migratory birds flew south to spend the winter, so how could they still chase geese? Wan Xiu could only mobilize his soldiers to look for them everywhere. In the end, in a farmer, he bought a male geese that was injured in his wings and was caught with the big geese.

The family geese are also geese. The first "approval" of the six marriage rituals was finally carried out smoothly. Wan Xiu was also begged by the fifth reunion and played a guest appearance as a matchmaker.

The conditions are limited, and there is too much red tape, so there is no need to pay attention to it. Ma Yuan took the geese who respectfully handed over the fifth reunion with a stern face and said, "If you give a gift, you will adopt the geese. You will take it at any time, and you will not lose your integrity. You will not take the woman when you are not snatched. You will also take the flying and the rows. You will be the ritual of marriage. You will be orderly and will not cross the line. Boyu, can you do it?"

"Which, Lun Jing accepts the promise!"

The fifth reunion understood in seconds. After that, he could no longer call Ma Yuan’s words. It’s a loss.

"Father-in-law walks." This is the name of the fifth reunion, but Ma Yuan did not agree, and always felt awkward.

Before this, Ma Yuan liked the fifth reunion, but today, he was angry.

Later, Ma Yuan and Wu Lun were in the fifth reunion. He wanted to go south before the fifth reunion.

Before leaving, he only told the fifth eunuch: "Boyu returned to Chang'an, pick a good day, and bring a geese to my house."

This is of course a second procedure for the wedding. Ask him for the name. However, there are five geese for the six marriage rituals, and geese cannot be eaten for five, so he must be given separately.

The reason why I was in a hurry to go back was that Ma Yuan, as the youngest in the family, was not the patriarch. He had to communicate with his two brothers about the family marriage. He would never dare to say the "big ambition" of the fifth relationship. As a new dynasty, the Ma family, the second and third brothers were all loyal people, at least now.

Secondly, Ma Yuan decided to do something else "going to the point of prosperity". He wanted to promote his eldest daughter's mother, that is, his concubine, to the main wife. In the future, Ma Yuan would be a wife, and the Ma lady transformed into the eldest daughter!

"The fifth reunion is very cunning, so I can't let my daughter be angry because of her identity."

...

The fifth reunion could not catch up with the horse aid alone, and he was stopped just after he left the barracks.

Last month, Lian County, which was the most severely damaged by the barbarians, learned that the fifth reunion was leaving, the three old masters took the lead, and thousands of people came outside the barriers to try to stay, but were reluctant to let him go.

For a moment, the old and weak cried with each other, stopped the carriage of the fifth reunion, and the old and the young climbed the carriage and knocked on horses, and followed each other, so that they could not walk for several miles a day.

Some people even were very arrogant, lying on the road without caring about the snow on the ground, so the team had to stop.

The elders bowed to the fifth reunion: "The barbarians are on the side, and the mediocre generals cannot resist. I wish the general to stay for a lifetime!"

Fifth Lun knew that the people of Lian County were worried that after they left, the barbarians would invade again. The officials were like Liang Qiuci and others who were greedy for life and feared death and refused to save them. He only bowed to the elders in the car: "The folk customs in the New Qin Dynasty have always been strong, and the folk customs are good at martial arts. There are many generals, and their children can ride horses and shoot arrows. In the Hanwu and Hanxuan periods, they often act as a forest, or follow the generals to attack Hu, which made the Shanyu escape far away and dare not look south."

"The previous Hu barbarians took advantage of the situation, but because the military preparations have been relaxed over the past few decades. With the people of the right part of the Hu barbarians, they are not as good as the four counties in the new Qin Dynasty, so why be afraid?"

"My subordinates will stay here, and the wait is smart. Once there is a policeman, the war will be ignited in advance, and the people can also learn the five soldiers with their soldiers. You not only defend the country, but also protect the family!"

Although the Huns recovered and restored their national strength, they were far less powerful than Maodun. They were as powerful as Maodun, and it was not easy for the whole country to invade. The small Hu bandits, as long as the locals regained their martial ethics and had ten thousand cultivations, the Seventh Biao organization could completely defeat them.

Seeing that the people of Lian County were unable to keep him, they had to let him go. However, the elders came over with a big bowl of rice wine that had been warmed up and said that it was cold and the road was cold. They asked the fifth reunion to drink warmly.

The fifth relationship came without any rejection, and picked up the bowl and drank it all.

After spending night in Shanghe City, I had a drink and chat with Dou Rong, who had just gone south next month. The next day, I arrived at the riverside and was stopped again.

This time, there were several newcomers who blocked the fifth reunion. It was said that since the Fifth Battalion led his troops across the river to attack Hu, the people in the New Qin Dynasty who were very cautious about the soldiers in the past gradually changed their attitude and believed that they were "armys protecting the people". In the past, farmers regarded Zhu Tufeng as bravely moving to the enemy soldiers and bandits, but now when they saw soldiers passing by, they could take the initiative to call them to drink water.

Some even single people were a hundred, and the officials solved the lifelong affairs. According to the promise, as long as there were people in the army who married local girls, the matchmakers would find the betrothal gifts and the fifth reunion were responsible for the betrothal gifts. Some chose to marry into the family because they were slaves in the past and did not even have a surname, while others claimed to be the "Fifth Reunion".

There are many women who lost their husbands after the Hu disaster in Shanghe County. The more bordered the border, the looser the etiquette. In order to make themselves and their children survive, there are many people who remarried more than a month after their ex-husband died. Following Wan Xiu to rescue the soldiers in Lilu became a hot commodity, and there is also a bit of the meaning of "repaying kindness".

As long as I have free time, I will marry the soldiers. Today, when I heard that he left, several couples who were about to get married soon took their days ahead of time and waited for the fifth couple by the frozen river. The newlyweds in a simple dress begged: "General, please drink a wedding wine for us!"

Can you not drink this wine? No, after leaving a few heavy gifts, I drank three more cups.

Although the rice wine is not high in appearance, it will be drunk hard but it will get over the head. When I walked slowly over the frozen Yellow River, the fifth reunion was already a little dazed.

Unexpectedly, after arriving on the other side, there was a bigger situation and more wine was waiting for me.

From afar, I saw that the white snow was covered with darkness. There were thousands of people, including residents from Lian County and Shanghe, and the residents of Texu County were spontaneously organized. The official took the lead. From the county magistrate to Wei and Cheng, the person who really called them was Zhang Chun.

As the representative of the county's elders, Zhang Chun led his tribesmen and fellow villagers from afar and sang: "There are no branches on the mulberry tree, and the ears of wheat are two different. The fish in power is so happy."

He also took the lead in singing: "I am not happy in the city, I miss my fifth place. When will I come back? I will rest assured to the people here!"

This is not the Book of Songs, but the song of harmony between the people. When it was approaching, Zhang Chun brought the T-wu people to greet him and said, "For more than half a year, the general has not only attacked the bandits outside, but also attacked the strong Hu in the west, but also was honest and kind, and was kind and virtuous. He has been resigned now. How can we all accept the benevolence and repay kindness without sharing the kindness?"

As he said that, he made a big deal. The local tyrants gathered together the donated cattle and horse utensils worth hundreds of thousands of yuan. I hope the general will accept it with a smile. Of course, I cannot ask for the fifth relationship, I just thanked each other politely and received nothing.

Since the valuable things are unwilling to be taken, Zhang Chun is priceless: "Yu Dingguo, the prime minister of the former Han Dynasty, was the chief of the county and county magistrate of Donghai. His father, Yu Gong, was the prison history of Donghai County and County, and the county was ruled by the prison, and the prison was fair and just. Even if the person who was punished, as long as the judgment was made by Yu Gong, he would not be hated. So the county was built for him, and the name was called Yu Gong Temple."

"We want to follow the affairs of the East China Sea, and we also built a temple for the general on the edge of the Zhongda River in the county so that the local people can remember the general's kindness for generations!"

The fifth reunion declined again, but Zhang Chun was very persistent, while the people behind him shouted: "The general is gone, we will stand up again!"

This situation made Di Wulun feel that his persistence was indeed in vain and he was deeply afraid of Zhang Chun.

First, he sings, then gave money, and finally a temple, which was a endless routine. Zhang Chun not only helped the fifth relationship make the reputation, but also used it to win the favor of the fifth song, so that the strong dragon and the local snake would continue to live in harmony.

The fifth reun only said in secret: "Wan Xiu, Xuan Biao, the seventh reunion, the three troikas I left in the New Qin Dynasty together are not Zhang Boren's opponents."

This made the Fifth Reun worry a little more about his subordinates. Within two years, they would still be the Fifth Reunion. After two years, they would not be sure what they would become.

Is the Zhang family's soldier or the successor general's soldier?

After all, people's hearts also have a shelf life, and the fifth relationship cannot leave everyone here for too long.

"In the future, I still have to find a way to tune the fifth tune back. What excuse should I use? For example... to go to Beijing to serve the king?"

Just as he was thinking, Zhang Chun handed over with wine: "In the past, Yu Dingguo could drink a stone without getting drunk. I wonder how much Boyu could drink?"

Another cup of warm soup of wine was filled with wine. After the fifth reunion was dried twice, the people all applauded, but he was a little confused. He only saw that the third one was really big and round, but he looked at it forcibly and poured it down forcibly.

On that day, I was drunk in the fifth reunion.

How did this farewell end? The fifth reunion was confused. I only remember that they sent it out for more than ten miles in the cold weather, and waved their hands several times and sang a song under the leadership of Zhang Chun.

"I suddenly couldn't see it when I looked far away, and I was wandering with melancholy. It was hard to see the kindness, and I always felt my heart!"

When Di Wulun woke up in the bumpy car, he found that it was still bright and he had been sleeping soundly all night. Because he had told him that he had to go on the road tomorrow, he was helped by his subordinates.

Wu Lun rubbed his messy head and asked what day it was today.

"The sect leader slept for a year!"

Zhang Yu, who handed the sobering warm soup to Diwulun, said: "Today is the first day of the twelfth lunar month, and it is the second year of the Dihuang!"

...

This is the first day in the second year of Dihuang (21 AD).

In Baishui Township, Caiyang County, the former team county, Liu Xiu knocked on the door in the big house of Liu's family as he did in previous years, wearing a red robe and reminded his brother: "Liu Bosheng, have you forgotten the hatred of Wang Mang usurping the Han Dynasty?"

After finishing, he sat in the yard and ate the food. The juice fell on his beard. When Liu Xiu went to clean it, he stroked his long beard that had grown, and couldn't help but sigh that time passed.

"In a blink of an eye, I have been home from Chang'an Imperial College for two years."

Liu Xiu has not been idle in the past two years. Among the Liu brothers, Liu Bo was promoted to be enterprising, recruiting heroes, and training clan soldiers. Liu Xiu was determined to be successful and focused on storing grain. Last year, Nanyang was hit by disaster, but Liu Xiu's family had a bumper harvest. Now, even the elder brother who had always mocked him for only focusing on farming could not help but praise him.

With food, everything is there. People who cannot survive in the desert may either enter the mountains to become bandits or join the Haoyou family. The control of the imperial court in front of the army is relaxed, and there are more and more bandits in the green forest in the south. The Liu family's clan guests have also slowly gathered together, and hundreds of people have been obtained. If the people are mobilized, two or three thousand people can respond.

The opportunity to take action that Liu Bosheng was looking forward to is getting closer.

But every time he couldn't help but want to raise the flag, Liu Xiu would persuade him.

"Uncle Wen, I said that the Earth Emperor will be the last year of the thief Wang Mang."

"Brother, the Earth Emperor has been six years, and it's only been a year, so wait first!"

Liu Xiu was so kind that he did things without any hurry or slow down, and he was steady and steady. Time stood by them, and let the world be in chaos first. But every time he went out and witnessed the refugees passing by and the harsh officials were entrusted to bribes, Liu Xiu was quite unbearable.

At this moment, the gate of the courtyard was pushed open, and a man rushed in, pulled Liu Xiu out.

But he was Liu Xiu's classmate and friend of Deng Yu when he was in the Imperial Academy.

Liu Xiu smiled and said, "Zhonghua came and Cai Yang didn't say anything. Where are you going? Let me change my clothes that I can go out properly."

"I've been burning my beards, and Uncle Wen is still able to change his clothes!" Deng Yu was anxious for him and stomped his feet and said:

"I came here to tell you that someone from Xinye County is coming to propose marriage to your lover, the lady of Yin!"
