Since Tang Xiujing received the holy oracle, he rushed to Broken Leaf City in the starry night.
Shen Mu gave him great help in this matter, Tang Xiujing and his entourage were at least hundreds, if they traveled a long way by car, horse and camel, and it was cold and snowy, they didn't know how long it would take.
To send them to Shattered Leaf City in the fastest time, only Shen Mu, the head snake of Longyou, can do it.
Under Shen Mu's full deployment, the "Hidden Sect", in the name of the Western Regions, mobilized a sufficient number of climbing plows, and sent Tang Xiujing and his attachés to Broken Leaf City all the way at a speed several times faster than horses, but it is still unknown how the ten surnamed tribes reacted after receiving the edict and whether they sent troops.
The edicts to the countries of Nanzhao are faster than those of Broken Leaf City, from Chang'an to Nanzhao, although the straight line is not as far as to Broken Leaf City, but this road has to trek through mountains and mountains, and it is also difficult.
In order to get in touch with the Nanzhao departments as quickly as possible, Wu Zetian did not send envoys from Chang'an, but sent post guards to transmit the holy decree to Yaozhou on a fast horse of 800 miles.
After receiving the holy decree, Li Yan, the superintendent of Jiannan South Province, immediately went to Nanzhao to announce the decree together with the great leader of the White Barbarians, Xun Qi, and his son-in-law, the great leader of the Wuman, Meng Zhezhu.
Most of the Bai Man and Wu Man and the six royal families of Nanzhao are related to each other, and the relationship between them is very close.
In addition, the six tribes of the Southern Zhao have been increasingly brutally exploited by the Tibetans in recent years, and they have been in constant conflict with each other, and now they have been promised by the Great Zhou that they will provide them with a large number of weapons and grain and grass, and the kings of the Six Zhao immediately rose up, killed the Tubo people who were in their territory and demanded tribute, and launched an attack on the Tibetan mainland.
Wuman and Baiman also sent men and horses to mix in the ranks of the six departments of Nanzhao, taking advantage of the fire to invade Tibet, intending to make a fortune and make a small fortune.
The imperial court blocked the news of the six armies of Nanzhao, and the envoys of the Tubo and Turks still made a perfunctory trick to them.
After Chen Daci, the governor of Maozhou, defeated the enemy of Tubo, the arrogance of the Tibetan envoys on Misa ceased to be rampant, and soon, Misa received the news of the rebellion of the Six Edicts.
In recent years, the Six Edicts have often fought and made peace with Tibet, and Misa did not know that this time the Six Edicts Rebellion was simply provoked by the Great Zhou, so he hurriedly blocked the news, lest the Great Zhou know.
However, this time, the Misar is even more aggressive.
At the beginning, the Turkic envoys were an image of taking advantage of the fire to rob, and they also asked for friendly treatment after Tubo, but now Tubo suffered a defeat, and then the backyard caught fire.
At first, Mo Hegan thought that the attitude of the Misa was only changed because of the defeat of Maozhou, and when the news of the Six Edicts Rebellion was covered up and even the Great Zhou "knew", Mo Hegan understood the real reason for the Misa's condescension, but at this time he did not know that their Turkic backyard was also on fire.
Wu Zetian procrastinated again and again, tried his best, and finally dragged it out until the New Year.
In order to celebrate the New Year, Wu Zhou arranged a series of New Year's celebrations, and this time they could be dragged down justifiably.
The Turkic and Tibetan envoys also planned to quell the rebellion of the Six Edicts before continuing to put pressure on Wu Zhou.
The two sides have their own plans, but they coincide, and with the arrival of the New Year, the discussion about harmony has been left behind for the time being.
The first day of the first month, the yuan of the year, the yuan of the time, and the yuan of the month are the beginning of the three yuan.
Bright red peach charms were hung on both sides of the gate of the Yang family, and a spring couplet written by Anu was also pasted on the door: "The beginning of the three yangs and the beginning of the four prefaces."
Early in the morning of the first eve, the bursting rod in the courtyard of the high-rise mansion by the Longqing Pond crackles non-stop, which is called "Ting Liao", and the fire in the courtyard of the rich family will burn for at least one day and one night, and some people even have to keep going for three days and three nights.
Princess Anle Mansion pulled back the blasting rod several days in advance, and I don't know how many cars of blasting rods were bought, piled up in the courtyard, and on the morning of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the bursting rod of Princess Anle's Mansion shook the world and burned, and Princess Anle also ingeniously sprinkled precious spices into the blasting rod, and when it was burned, it made a strange fragrance.
Yang Fan's family background is actually much richer than Princess Anle, but he did not show off his wealth like Princess Anle.
The happiest are the two sisters and brothers, Yang Sirong and Yang Nianzu, the two sisters and brothers wear new clothes and hats, and they will be happy in the front yard and the backyard.
In the evening, Yang Fan's neighbors quieted down.
Wu Chongxun and An Le rushed to the Liang Wangfu to keep the New Year, and the five brothers of Shouchun King Li Chengqi also went to the Xiangwang Mansion, although their house was still brightly lit, but only the slaves guarded the house, and there was no such excitement, only the Yang family, the excitement was still there.
In the depths of the low hill next to the west wall, a small pavilion fenced with white jade, Yang Fan filled a few handfuls of new soil on Ning Ke's grave, opened the food box, put a few cold foods, a few plates of dry food in front of the tablet one by one, and finally lit the gold and silver bills and paper money he brought, the fire suddenly rose, and the dark red ashes were accompanied by a little firelight, and the butterflies escaped.
The crackling sound of firecrackers came from far and near, but it seemed even more empty.
Yang Fan worshiped Ning Ke and slowly walked out of the hills, the firecrackers in the courtyard burned warmly, and the crackling sound was like a cannon.
The family members who came and went were all wearing new clothes, with a beaming face, and the children of the Gu family also ran to the door from time to time, and when they saw Yang Fan, everyone greeted each other.
As soon as he entered the flower hall of the back house, Yang Fan saw Yang Nianzu carrying a goldfish lamp, as if he was drunk, he came out of the flower hall crookedly, and when he went out, he hit the door frame with his head.
Yang Fan held him up, only to see his son's sleepy eyes relaxed, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly, the family got up early today, Yang Nianzu, who usually had the habit of napping, was too excited, and he didn't sleep at noon, and he looked sleepy.
Yang Fan touched his head and said, "Look at you sleepy, go sleep for a while."
"Children are not sleepy, children must keep the New Year" Yang Nianzu shook his head, counting these few days in a year, how could he be willing to sleep, he carried the goldfish lamp and walked crookedly all the way, stubbornly fighting with the sleeping demon, waiting for the arrival of midnight.
Midnight finally arrived, first the bells and drums in Chang'an Palace City rang together, the melodious bells and drums just faintly came into the ears, the bells and drums of Suzaku Street and various squares, temples, and Taoist temples rang together, the sound was far and near, large and small, high and low, and the convergence was a very shocking feeling.
It's time to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new.
The housekeeper Ma Han said to Yang Fan with a smile: "Ah Lang, please take a seat" The original old housekeeper of the Yang Mansion was surnamed Niu, because of the westward migration, the Yang family also moved from Luoyang, the old Niu was old, and the family lived in Luoyang, so he did not come to Chang'an, resigned and went home to retire, this Ma Han is the newly hired steward of the Yang family after arriving in Chang'an, extremely shrewd and capable.
Yang Fan smiled with some surprise: "What kind of rule is this, do I still want to take a seat?"
Ma Han said with a smile: "This is natural, Ah Lang, you are the head of the Yang family, and your seniority and identity are the most valuable, so you naturally want to sit down and accept the visit of the whole family." ” Yang Fan's common sense in this area is really lacking, he is young and withered, floating in the South Seas, and the customs of the South Seas are different from those in Middle-earth.
When he became an adult, he returned to the Central Plains and laid down this family business with his bare hands, and he has never been serious about keeping the New Year in accordance with the habits of large families in the Central Plains.
Yang Fan sat in the middle of the hall according to the housekeeper's wishes, and saw that there was a seat next to him, half a step back, and there were two seats on the left and right.
Xiaoman, Anu and Gu Zhuting walked in with a smile and saluted Yang Fanfu in turn.
Immediately afterwards, the three daughters returned to their seats in turn, Yang Sirong and Yang Nianzu sisters and brothers were brought to Yang Fan, kneeling on the futon, and the sisters and brothers kowtowed to Daddy very sincerely, and said auspicious words such as "Fuyan Xin, celebrating life without borders".

Yang Fan was a little funny at first, but gradually he felt a strange feeling.
The little Yang Ji was also put on the futon by the nurse, learning from the appearance of his brothers and sisters, and kowtowing to his father and aunt very cutely, the little guy said a few words in a milky voice, but unfortunately his speech was slurred, the voice was too small, and the sound of bells and drums and bursting rods kept coming, except for himself, I am afraid that no one could hear what he was saying.
After Yang Ji finished saying the congratulatory message, he kowtowed very seriously, looking at what seemed to be the same, but the center of gravity was unstable, and he almost turned over with a heel, and he was clever, crooked, and fell to the side, and was caught by the nurse.
Yang Fan couldn't help laughing, smiling and laughing, but his eyes were a little bright.
Yang Dai'er is still young, and can only be held by the nurse to her father, even if she kowtows to the New Year, and then starts from the housekeeper Ma Han, and the mother-in-law kowtows to the master and the master mother, Xiaoman has already prepared a basket of red envelopes, and the basket is also wrapped with red silk, which is placed next to Yang Fan, Yang Fan sent out a red envelope, and sent everyone happy.
When the family finished the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, it was almost four days since Zhizheng was able to rest, and the family took a nap, and it was just over an hour before and after, and they were woken up again by the sound of bells and drums in the morning.
Today, Yang Fan has to get up early, and on the first day of the new year, he has to go to the court to pay New Year's greetings to the emperor.
The horse steward got up earlier than the master, and when Yang Fan got up, he saw that he was directing his family to erect a long bamboo pole in the yard, and the pole head was suspended with a long flag made of silk embroidered with various auspicious animal patterns.
When the whole family got up, breakfast was served, and there was a pot of "Tusu wine" on the table.
This liquor is made by a mixture of seven kinds of herbs: rhubarb, atractylodes, bellflower, Shu pepper, cinnamon, aconitum and sarsaparilla.
Yang Fan listened to Steward Ma's explanation, and was about to pick up the wine glass with a smile, but Steward Ma hurriedly stopped: "Ah Lang is slow, the whole family has to drink this wine, but it has to start with the youngest child." ” Yang Fanqi said: "What kind of rule is this?"
Steward Ma said with a smile: "The saying handed down by the elders is that the younger one has the age and the first wine to congratulate him."
The old man lost his old age and drank alcohol afterwards.
The old decay is also according to the gourd painting scoop. ” Yang Fan couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he heard this, he was in the prime of life, and he had nothing to do with the old man anyway, but his parents died, and there was no one older than him in the Yang Mansion, so he had to take the name of the old man.
He lived in a mountain village when he was a child, and the environment was poor, but he didn't remember whether there were such rules at home for the Chinese New Year when he was a child, just listen to people's arrangements.
Yang Fan stopped and said with a smile: "Then you have to start drinking from Dai'er, come, bring my baby daughter over." ” Yang Daier was held by the nurse, wearing a bright new dress, with a red dot on her eyebrows, and the pink ball was extremely cute.
She was sucking her fingers, staring at a pair of big black eyes, curiously looking at her brother Yang Nianzu wearing a tiger skin hat, and couldn't take her eyes off it.
When Yang Fan approached her with a spoon dipped in some Tusu wine, the little girl turned her eyes to look at her father, and as soon as she smelled the smell of medicine, the little girl immediately wrinkled her little face vigilantly, closed her eyes, pursed her mouth, and resolutely twisted to the side.
"Hey, this girl, you're smart."
Yang Fan moved the chopsticks with a grin, and as soon as she touched her lips, the little girl quickly twisted her head to the other side.
Yang Sirong watched it interestingly, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.
The father and daughter competed for a long time, and Yang Fan finally got his wish and dropped a drop of Tusu wine into the little girl's mouth.
As soon as she tasted the smell of Chinese medicine, the little girl immediately flattened her mouth aggrievedly, and then slowly grinned, and cried "wow".
"Wow whoa" Xiao Man smeared a drop of sugar on her mouth at the right time, Yang Dai'er, who was crying loudly, was obviously stunned, she stretched out the tip of her tongue and licked it tentatively, and then quickly rolled the drop of sugar on her lips into her mouth, tasted it, and saw Yang Fan laugh again.
After Yang Daier finished eating the candy, she licked her lips unsatisfied, opened her eyes wide to chase Xiaoman's fingers, and stretched her neck as soon as her fingers approached her, looking at the small appearance of her eyes, it was really distressing, Xiaoman's heart was soft, and she still ordered another drop of sugar to her, this time Yang Daier opened her mouth early, like a yellow-beaked little finch waiting to be fed.
"Hehe, the little guy is so hard, he's about to bite people."
Xiao Man withdrew his finger and laughed happily.
Yang Dai'er, who ate a drop of medicinal wine in exchange for two drops of sugar, saw the eldest lady smile, and also grinned, revealing a cute smile.
After waiting for the little one, the other children will be easy to do, as long as Yang Fan stares, even Yang Ji has to be obedient.
Yang Fan didn't believe that Tu Su wine had this effect, but the tradition still had to be observed, just like the family would get together at midnight to pay New Year's greetings to him, the head of the family, at first he didn't think so, but he gradually felt that some rituals and rules were the basis of family style and emotion.
The breakfast on the first day of the Lunar New Year is different from usual, the first thing that comes up is a green and green, spicy and spicy Wuxin plate, which contains garlic, garlic, leeks, brassica, coriander five kinds of vegetables, it is said that eating Wuxin plate can diffuse the five internal organs and depression, and prevent the epidemic from getting sick.
The children also had their favorite foods, and a plate of maltose made of "gum tooth dumplings" was quickly divided up by several children.
Taomei and the third sister came up with two steaming plates of "prison pills", which are dumplings, but they are not called this name in this era.
Yang Fan clipped a "prison pill", and said to Xiao Man while eating: "I will enter the court to worship the Son of Heaven in a while, and there will be a palace banquet after the ceremony, Lu Maofeng was on duty last night, and I will go for him for a while in the afternoon, because there is a dance in the palace at night, and I have to make some arrangements for the vigilance first, and I will not be able to come back until the evening." ” Yang Fan explained to Xiaoman, Yang Sirong looked at him with a pair of big eyes blinking, Yang Fan pinched her face affectionately, and said, "Wild girl, I want to go out for a while, and I will take you to the throne."
Daddy will come back in the evening and take you to Suzaku Street to watch the exorcism.
Remember, when you go to someone else's house, don't eat anything good, if you are full, you won't be able to eat at the next house. ” Yang Sirong suddenly became happy, made a grimace at him, and grinned.
On the first day of the first month of the first month of the Tang Dynasty, every household has a wine banquet, neighbors and friends want to greet each other for the New Year, and go to whose house to eat, this is called a seat, Yang Fan's left and right neighbors are not at home during the New Year, but Mrs.
Zheng's mansion is behind, which is a must to go.
Although Gu Zhuting is a concubine, Yang Fan has always respected her parents, so the Gu family is also going to go, and at the same time, Yang Fan also has some good friends and officialdom colleagues in Chang'an, including Maqiao's old lady and wife also moved from Luoyang, and they live in the side of the house, and they also want to visit the door.
Yang Fan said: "Today, the lady will take the child to the throne to ask for the New Year, Anu stayed in the house to receive others to visit the New Year, Xiaoting is pregnant, she didn't rest well yesterday, take a good rest today, let's go out together as a family when we go to the street to watch the play at night, remember to prepare a walking car." ” Yang Fan instructed them one by one, and his wife and concubines all nodded meekly, without the slightest doubt about his arrangement.
Yang Fan ate a plate of "prison pills", washed and cleaned again, and then changed into court clothes and entered the palace.
Hundreds of officials gathered outside the palace gate, and there were really a lot of officials who came today, including officials in Beijing, as well as relatives of the emperor and relatives, and honorable heroes.
Fortunately, every year on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Beijing officials have to pay New Year's greetings to the emperor, and everyone is familiar with this set of rules and etiquette, but they are also busy but not chaotic.
Soon, everyone stood in line with the ranks of civil ministers and military generals and royal relatives and nobles, and the same queue was arranged according to the level of official titles and titles, which seemed orderly.
When everyone meets each other, they naturally have to greet each other, which is chaotic in the team, and the usual strict supervision of the wind and imperial history is no longer with a stinky face at this time, but with the same smile as everyone, and when you see acquaintances and friends, you will also come forward to greet the New Year.

As soon as the auspicious time arrived, the prime minister led hundreds of officials into the palace, and Wu Zetian had already sat in the main hall to accept worship.
There were too many officials in Beijing, and those who usually did not go to court also came, so everyone took turns to go to the palace to congratulate the emperor, and the prime minister read to the emperor the obscure and obscure New Year's greeting text, and then the ministers thanked the emperor for answering.
After the Beijing officials finished their New Year's greetings, there were also congratulatory tables sent by the officials and vassals of foreign prefectures, and the representatives sent by the local officials preached in public, and this was tossed until the lunch break.
Even if the officials had eaten well in the morning, they were hungry at this time.
Fortunately, at this time, the worship finally ended, and the emperor announced that a palace banquet would be held, and the petty officials who were not qualified enough to pay homage to the emperor would withdraw from the palace, and only high-ranking civil and military officials would participate in the banquet.
Because the palace banquet was set in Daming Palace, everyone flocked to Daming Palace again.
The envoys of Tibet, Turk and Turkic countries in Beijing also participated in the pilgrimage, and at this moment of national celebration, no one would say something unpleasant without knowing each other, and neither the Tibetan nor the Turkic envoys said anything out of place, but as soon as they entered the table, the Tibetan and Turkic envoys gathered together and exchanged heads and ears, with heavy expressions.
Seeing that the Turkic envoy Mohegan was worried, the Tibetan envoy saw that the Turkic envoy Mohegan was worried, so he looked left and right, and lowered his voice and said: "Your envoy rest assured, my king has gone to the Six Edicts to quell the rebellion.
When my king goes, he will be able to put down the rebellion quickly, and when the time comes, he will take advantage of the victory and wave his army, and he and your country will still be able to form a two-sided attack. ” When Mo Hegan heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said: "It's good if that's the case, otherwise, I'm afraid that you and I will return in vain in this experience." ” On the side of the civil and military officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the two brothers Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong no longer tried to reconcile with Wei Yuanzhong, Song Jing and others, and everyone naturally formed different social circles, and they were happy to talk and laugh.
The inner servants of the palace are full of fish, "manna soup", "soul burning", "goose and duck burning", "deer tail sauce", "red incense", "camel hoof soup", "bright shrimp burning", "jade dew group", "phoenix fetus", "snow baby", "royal queen mother rice" and other palace banquet dishes are presented one after another.
The ingredients are precious, and the cooking is also first-class, but for such a big banquet, many dishes can only be prepared in advance, and by the time they are served, they are already half-lukewarm, and the taste is greatly affected.
Fortunately, no one who is qualified to participate in the imperial banquet is here for food, and the banquet is still very lively.
Wu Zetian supported the court for a morning, and met with the courtiers from all walks of life, and was already tired, so he just sat down for a while at the imperial banquet, accepted the toast of the hundred officials, and returned a glass to the hundred officials and drove back to the palace.
Yang Fan only sat in the palace for a while, as soon as the emperor left, he toasted a glass of wine to his familiar friends and fellow officials, and left Daming Palace on the grounds of inspecting the palace.
Yang Fan wandered around the palace for a while, and then sneaked into Wan'er's residence.
Wan'er left the imperial banquet with Wu Zetian, she didn't eat well at the imperial banquet, and when she came back, she asked someone to open a small stove and prepare a few exquisite side dishes, accompanied by Fu Qingqing, and the two were sitting opposite each other for a drink.
As soon as Yang Fan arrived, Fu Qingqing naturally retired, and Yang Fan accompanied Wan'er to eat, talking about the interesting story of letting Dai'er drink Tu Su wine this morning, which made Wan'er laugh.
"Tomorrow, the slave family will go back to Grandma."
As she spoke, Wan'er suddenly came out of nowhere.
In the Tang Dynasty, there was no lunar calendar and solar calendar, so New Year's Day and Spring Festival were the same day, New Year's Day had to be off for seven days, three days before the year, three days after the year, plus the first day of the New Year, a total of seven days off.
However, Wan'er is a female official in the inner court, and she has to arrange and deal with the details of various celebrations in the palace in the first three days, and she has to accompany the emperor to meet with hundreds of officials on the first day of the new year, so she can only save her relatives for three days of the annual meeting.
Yang Fan pinched her tender little hand, with a mysterious smile on her face: "Well, the door in the backyard of Yang's Mansion has a lock, and there is no lock, do you want someone to stand on the side of the door to welcome Fang Jia?"
Wan'er gently smacked him and said, "People are going to see their daughter, I haven't seen Dai'er for a long time, I miss it so much, where do you want to go." ” Yang Fan blinked and said with a smile: "I didn't say anything about it, I also think about it." ” Wan'er blushed, clenched her pink fist and gently slapped it on his shoulder, snuggled into his arms again, and said in a quiet tone: "I don't know when people will have to stay with Lang Jun for a long time." ” Yang Fan comforted: "Now that you are out of the palace is much more convenient than before, it is not bad to do this for the time being."
At home, Xiaoman usually takes care of the store, and he doesn't feel bored.
Anu felt a little bored when she stayed at home all day.
If you are told to be a canary now, you live in a deep house and occasionally go shopping on the street, and you have lost a lot of life style, but I am afraid that you may not feel happy, or you will be older, and you will be able to accept your surname. ” Wan'er said coquettishly: "If you have no conscience, you know that you don't want others." ” Yang Fan said: "How can there be, don't you want to relax your heart Hehe, now Erzhang is meddling everywhere in the palace and outside the palace, and the desire for power is much greater than before, so that you have more and more opportunities to get out of the palace, doesn't the Son of Heaven allow you to go out of the palace for three days every ten days, let's be a little biesheng newlywed." ” Wan'er took a sip of him, but she also agreed with his statement.
Yang Fan mentioned the two sheets, and Wan'er suddenly became alert, so she reminded: "Lang Jun should not be too close to them in the future." ” Yang Fan nodded and said: "Don't worry, I haven't moved around Erzhang for a long time, and I don't even go to King Liang's side.
Hehe, if you don't take a clear position now, I'm afraid that you will have to wash it out when the time comes. ” Wan'er nodded, and said softly: "Since Er Zhang was humiliated by Song Jing in front of him when he invited the Turkic envoys at the banquet last time, Er Zhang has frequently made appointments with his henchmen, and he seems to have a plan. ” Yang Fan sighed: "I know.
The ministers of the court and the central government thought that the position of the crown prince had been decided, and the Wu clan was no longer afraid, although it was still the Great Zhou Dynasty today, it was only waiting for the Son of Heaven to return to the west, and he would naturally return to Li Tang.
Only the two zhang, not only the authority is prosperous, but also they serve the king, it is easy to isolate the inside and outside, and the officials are very jealous, so they will want to get rid of them quickly.
But Erzhang is a lust for power, and he never understands that their power is just a tree without roots, and only without power can they avoid disaster, and seeking power is seeking trouble, but it has intensified.
This battle between the two of them is bound to happen sooner or later, I only hope that if Baiguan is defeated, don't implicate the crown prince or the prime minister, otherwise King Liang will definitely fish in troubled waters when he sees an opportunity. ” Wan'er shook her head: "Wei Xiang and other Geng Zhong's ministers can't wait to deal with Erzhang, in the eyes of the slave, it is very unwise, as long as the Son of Heaven is in the first place, he will never let anyone hurt them." ” Somehow, Yang Fan suddenly thought of Xue Huaiyi, who was living in Dayun Temple at the moment, he thought about it for a while, and said leisurely: "Maybe, but there are no absolutes in the world." : In the last update, there were two thousand eight, and some book friends asked me if I wanted to mix with the 2K Party, but there were more than seven in this chapter.
