    The capital was very lively. Nacai's team moved forward step by step in the capital, and the people on both sides followed them with smiles. They had only one destination, and that was Zhang Guoji's mansion.  At this time, Zhang Mansion was already busy, cleaning the yard and preparing for the dinner.  Although it is not necessary to entertain all the incoming guests, the envoys, deputy envoys, etiquette department, and accompanying officials must all be entertained.  With the sound of drums, Nacai¡¯s team got closer and closer to Zhang¡¯s house. Under the leadership of Zhang Guoji, the Zhang family came to the gate of Zhang¡¯s house to greet the angel.  At this time, the incense table had already been set up at the entrance of the Zhang family, and everything was ready.  The officials from the Ministry of Personnel who arrived here early had already arranged everything for the Zhang family. No one was willing to let go of this opportunity to curry favor with the father-in-law.  When the team came to the front, they slowly separated. The first person to step out was Liu Yijing, the cabinet scholar holding the imperial edict in his hand.  After glancing at Zhang Guoji, Liu Yijing said loudly: "Zhang Guoji, take the order!" With Liu Yijing's shout, everyone around him knelt down, and Zhang Guoji said loudly: "The common people take the order!  " Slowly unfolding the imperial edict, Liu Yijing said loudly: "The emperor is destined to be blessed by heaven. The edict says: Zha Zhang's daughter, a virtuous and virtuous woman, gentle and virtuous, is to be established as the empress. Special envoy Liu Yi, a bachelor of the cabinet, is appointed.  Jing, please accept and ask for your name." After Liu Yijing finished reading, he handed the imperial edict in his hand to Zhang Guoji.  After Zhang Guoji received the imperial edict, he naturally shouted long live and thanked the Lord for his kindness.  Liu Yijing did not step forward to help Zhang Guoji, and the expression on his face was very serious, as if he was waiting for Zhang Guoji to do something.  After placing the imperial edict on the incense table, Zhang Guoji picked up a piece of paper on the table, handed it to Liu Yijing respectfully with both hands, and said loudly: "This is the birth date of my little girl, please keep it away!" This Zhang Guoji is  I was a little worried that once the Qintian Prison figured out that my daughter was at odds with the emperor, it would be a mistake.  But he is just worried. There is probably no one who is blind and dares to say that they are incompatible with each other.  Taking the watch handed over by Zhang Guoji, Liu Yijing handed it to the person behind him and said with a serious face: "Go back and calculate the auspicious day, and your Majesty will choose a day to get married!" Liu Yijing naturally understood this well and calculated the horoscopes.  Without saying anything at all, it just became a matter of choosing a good time and auspicious day.  After waving to the people behind him, Liu Yijing said loudly: "Present!" Following his words, the royal guards behind him carrying gifts walked into the Zhang Mansion one by one.  Under the guidance of Zhang's housekeeper, the gifts were placed one by one in the Zhang family's courtyard.  When the etiquette of nacai was first formed, nacai simply asked a matchmaker to find out what the girl's family meant.  At that time, people believed that wild geese were a symbol of single-mindedness, so they always gave a wild goose when accepting a gift.  If the girl's family doesn't agree, they will refuse at this time, and it will be a meeting. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? However, as time goes by, the Chinese people's love of comparison was not absent at that time, so the greeting gifts became more and more important, and only heavy gifts can reflect sincerity.  If the etiquette is too light, the woman will think you are disrespecting them, and the marriage will probably not happen.  Of course, when the emperor gets married, even if he doesn't give anything, no one dares to refuse.  But the royal family couldn¡¯t afford to lose that person, so this gift was extremely numerous and very precious.  The original wild goose was replaced by a jade goose, but it was no smaller than the real wild goose. At first glance, it was not ordinary.  Gold and silver jewelry, silk and satin are all specially provided by the inner palace, and most people have never seen them in their lives.  Porcelain from official kilns and calligraphy and paintings by famous artists are all extremely precious and there are many of them.  People standing in the crowd can only be envious. How many people hate themselves for not having this blessing!  Needless to say about titles, fiefs and other rewards, this meeting gift alone is enough for a large family to live for several lifetimes.  When all the gifts came into Zhang's house and Zhang Guoji thanked him again, Liu Yijing's face showed a smile. She quickly walked to Zhang Guoji's side, took Zhang Guoji's hand and said affectionately: "Guardian, thank you for your hard work."  "Congratulations! I'm so shameless in asking for a glass of wine today!" "Looking at what you said, you are a bachelor of the cabinet. This is a distinguished guest that I can't even invite. The food and drinks have already been prepared!"  !" He called everyone in and told the housekeeper outside to take good care of the people coming outside.  Everyone who comes has a reward, which is absolutely indispensable. Even Liu Yijing and Sun Ruyou have them.  This is already a rule. The person who gives it feels at ease, and the person who receives it also feels at ease.  However, the amount given to people with different positions was different, but if it was too little, the Zhang family would not be happy with it, and all the drummers would be rewarded with two taels.  In short, the Zhang family spent almost two thousand taels on the reward money alone. Fortunately, the Zhang family had considerable wealth, otherwise they would not be able to afford this money.  On this day, the Zhang family was very lively, the capital was also very lively, and the Forbidden City was no exception.?The place of celebration is Cining Palace.  Seeing the extremely happy Empress Dowager and several of Emperor Taichang's concubines, who were now concubines, Emperor Tianqi pondered for a moment and said to the Empress Dowager: "Mother, I still have some things ahead of me, so let's go first  Let's go!" Looking at Emperor Tianqi lovingly, the Empress Dowager smiled and said: "Go! Be a good emperor." Without hesitation, Emperor Tianqi stood up and saluted everyone, and then walked quickly with Chen Hong.  's left.  When Emperor Tianqi returned to Qianqing Palace, there was already someone waiting here.  Looking at Luo Sigong, Emperor Tianqi asked seriously: "Luo Aiqing, is there any news from Liaodong?" After giving a salute to Emperor Tianqi, Luo Sigong said respectfully: "Go back to your majesty, Jin Yiwei and the people sent by Dongchang Hou.  We've arrived, I have the message that was just sent back here!" Sitting on the dragon chair, rubbing his swollen forehead, Emperor Tianqi said calmly: "I don't have the intention to read, please talk to me about the important things!" "Yes,  Your Majesty. Mr. Sun and Mr. Yang have arrived in Liaodong a long time ago, and the batch of supplies they transported has also arrived in Shenyang. Mr. Sun has kept the seeds for the generals, and Mr. Sun has sent people to the governors of Liaodong, Jinyiwei and Dongchang.  All the people have arrived in Liaodong, and the spy investigation has not yet started, so there is nothing to gain." Luo Sigong simply told Emperor Tianqi what was in the memorial.  "The most important thing is those seeds. I have told Yang Lian to keep it a secret. You are sending a secret order to ask the Jin Yiwei of Liaodong to take good care of them." Emperor Tianqi looked at Luo Sigong with burning eyes. Obviously, he was still worried about Liaodong.  He did not relax his vigilance at all because of the big wedding.
