The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

The Han people have a wedding custom. Three, six, seven, nine, ten days after marriage or the full moon, the son-in-law brings gifts, and as the bride repents of her natal family, pays respects to the wife’s parents and relatives, and personally welcomes the beginning of the ceremony of becoming a son-in-law. Even if it's all done.

Zhang Fanzheng was planning to take advantage of this opportunity to go to Liu Shan and ask him for the books he wanted. Wang Meng had no objection to this matter. After all, it was a good thing to say, but some people were Some disagree, the most important of which should be Zhang Fan's family, his uncle Zhang Yufang's family.

Thinking about it, the etiquette of returning to the door should be used for newlyweds, and Zhang Fan is just marrying a concubine now, so he shouldn't be so ostentatious, but he still has to perform those completely unnecessary etiquette. Can Zhang Yufang's family not feel strange and inappropriate.

It’s understandable to be strange, isn’t it wrong? Its meaning is deeper. First, they really feel wrong because of Zhang Fan. After all, things come first and then come first. Fan's favorite, but who told you to be a small person after entering the door? Since you are a small person, you must have the self-consciousness of being a small person, and you must not mess up your position.

The second thing is that they have some considerations for themselves. Zhang Fan came to Yangzhou this time and came here to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors. A wish of the ancestors of the family, to put it mildly, the arrival of Zhang Fan can be regarded as bringing endless reputation to the Zhang family, so that the joysticks of the members of the Zhang family can be strengthened by three points.

And Zhang Fan actually wants to do this, isn't it a shame, they know that with Zhang Fan's current status, no one will dare to laugh at him, and even for them, no one will laugh at him. In front of them, they were joking about this matter.

However, people live a lifetime, especially those who have some status, the most taboo gossip, no matter whether others will say it in front of you, as long as you have something that can make others gossip, then There will naturally be some discomfort in my heart.

Now, there was such a thing before them, and it was not easy for them to go up and persuade Zhang Fan.

Zhang Yufang's son and daughter have no opinion on this matter. Although Zhang Yan is not as knowledgeable as his father, he is young after all, and some thoughts in his heart are somewhat different from those of Zhang Yufang, who is considered to be an elderly person now. Yes, generally speaking, Zhang Yan is relatively easy to accept new things. Although there are many things in this world, they have been formed since the founding of Zhu Yuanzhang, and there has been no change until now. Although Zhang Yan is also obsessed with Zhang Fan Taking Luo Ling'er to Liu Shan's mansion to go back to the house was a bit of a criticism, but he also knew something. Things in the officialdom must not just look at the surface. Although he didn't know what Zhang Fan and Liu Shan were planning, but He knows that there must be many things that are inconvenient to say, so in Zhang Yan's view, what Zhang Fan has to do is much more important. After all, the rumors outside are not as good as what he can get. Even if he doesn't know what the actual benefits are, he is sure that Zhang Fan must have weighed them.

As for Zhang Yufang's daughter, Zhang Ting, it would be wrong to say that she has no objection to this matter, but Zhang Ting seems to have no time to object to this matter now. The woman who likes her completely cut off the beautiful thoughts in her girl's mind because of the blood relationship between the two. Originally, this matter is just a loss for Zhang Ting, although the degree of loss is a bit severe, But it's just a loss, she has a great youth, and now she is socially, the unmarried daughters in Yangzhou City can be regarded as Zhang Ting as the leader, and now there are even more young talents who don't know how to deal with her. She flocks to her, so maybe Zhang Ting will not be able to get rid of Zhang Fan's "shadow" for a while, but things will always pass, and time will gradually make people forget some things.

However, the current incident made Zhang Ting feel very upset. Naturally, it was the incident of Zhang Fanna Luo Linger being his concubine. Taking a concubine has nothing to do with her. Besides, the fantasy about Zhang Ting before was just a product of her wishful thinking. Zhang Fan didn't even know that he had a cousin who was secretly in love with him, and he never treated her like that. What Zhang Ting said, Zhang Ting's current displeasure is entirely her own wishful thinking.

This feeling of displeasure reached a peak today, the day after Zhang Fan married Luo Ling'er.

Since Zhang Fan came to Zhang's house, Zhang Ting would always get up early every day, and then dress herself up carefully, although this was no different from her previous life, and even other people in the family did not notice Zhang Ting's appearance at all. There have been some changes, but the little girl understands in her heart, understands why she is doing this, so naturally she can see her every day after Zhang Fan gets up, and this beautiful image of herself also hopes to be seen in Zhang Fan's eyes. Fan's heart left a good impression.

But today, Zhang Fan did not get up early to appear in front of people like before. Even Zhang Ting, who originally planned to go out, broke her appointment with others and stayed at home obediently, waiting for Zhang Fan to appear, even if it was just Say hello to him, and say a few plain words to him, Zhang Ting is very satisfied in her heart, but Zhang Ting, who is sitting withered and waiting for Zhang Fan, never sees the figure she wants to see in her heart, even until she arrives. At noon, when her mother asked her servants to call her to have dinner, Zhang Ting's wish today was still not fulfilled.

Speaking of it, it's not that Zhang Ting doesn't understand that such a scene will appear today, but this kind of waiting makes her feel upset. When the time reaches noon, this kind of waiting gradually changes its nature and becomes annoyed. Zhang Ting even She felt that Zhang Fan had betrayed her. Even though Zhang Fan had never said or done anything to her, such an idea was naturally born in her heart. It has to be said that it is also a unique feeling of human beings. Well, but even if Zhang Ting was angry, even if she felt that Zhang Fan was unfair to her, she couldn't blame Zhang Fan anyway, so all the anger in her heart was blamed on Luo Linger , thinking that all the reasons, including Zhang Fan no longer paying attention to herself (even before, Zhang Fan was very polite to her, treating her like a brother and sister, this is just Zhang Ting's wishful thinking), including Zhang Fan's Being a concubine like Luo Linger has delayed the good time of the day. She always feels that since Zhang Fan has a heavy responsibility, he should be busy with official duties every day. Care about other things.

Regarding Zhang Fan's plan to bring Luo Ling'er to the Liu Mansion tomorrow, Zhang Ting didn't have much reaction, mainly because she had already been filled with anger from before, and there was no more place to visit. angry.

There is also Zhang Yufang, Zhang Fan's uncle is very concerned about Zhang Fan, his nephew whom he has not known for a long time, and he is very considerate of Zhang Fan in many things, but recently, he is also a little bit dissatisfied. Satisfied.

I still remember that when Zhang Fan first came, at that time, officials of all sizes flocked to Yangzhou City and the surrounding state capitals. It is not good, and Zhang Yufang is not ignorant of some habits in the officialdom, and understands that some things cannot be refused, but these officials who came to Zhang's mansion seem to have exceeded the standard gifts in their hands, and Zhang Fan, However, he never refused, and he didn't even mean to refuse at all. This made Zhang Yufang somewhat unconvinced. After all, if this continues, he is very worried about Zhang Fan's future, even though Zhang Fan is deeply trusted by the current emperor and The respect of today's princes, but in the past, which of those corrupt and treacherous treacherous people did not gain the trust of the emperor, so they became complacent, broke the law wantonly, and finally went to jail, or even had their families ransacked.

But Zhang Yufang didn't know why, whether it was because of Zhang Fan's identity, or because he was not too familiar with Zhang Fan's uncle and nephew, but he never told Zhang Fan about it. Maybe he thought Zhang Fan was just young. This is what happens when you are full of energy, and it should be better after a while.

But this kind of thinking changed with Zhang Fan's marriage to Luo Ling'er. Yesterday, even without an invitation, the banquet was still overcrowded. Of course, those businessmen who came here because of him needn't say, but Those officials who came from all directions made Zhang Yufang feel that something was wrong, especially when Liu Shan sent Luo Linger, those things called dowry made Zhang Yufang frowned deeply, Liu Shan He also knows a little bit about the wind, although it is not a big treachery, but it is not a good thing for Zhang Fan, a court official, to be so close with an eunuch, and judging from yesterday's appearance, it is estimated that there must be a relationship between Zhang Fan and him. Some kind of incredible agreement was reached, and this was exactly what Zhang Yufang was worried about.

Today, Zhang Fan decided to go to Liu Shan's mansion tomorrow. Zhang Yufang didn't care about his reputation or the reputation of outsiders.
