Chapter 197: Song Li Qingtian

The village witch blows the horns and is about to dawn, and I am eager to pay New Year's greetings in the alleys. I am so surprised that I am lazy to get out of bed, and I am worried when I see Tu Su. I can't escape from the world, and I am so rude and have no choice. The spring breeze is ignorant and ignores people, and I am going toward the pond. Who knows that this time is not firm, and I am old every time.

There is also a poem that says, "I don't want to meet but only visit me." The famous paper comes to my house. I also throw papers with people, and the world is not as simple as it is.

On the fourth day of Chongning, Quanzhou Prefecture

"We congratulate the old lady on her lucky stars and her family's happiness!"

"I wish my husband to be proud of his honor and to be the minister as soon as possible!"

"Congratulations to my wife for her good luck!"

Sure enough, early in the morning, a group of civil and military officials, wealthy businessmen, Kunshen, relatives and close friends gathered in Quanzhou to pay New Year's greetings with Li Sanjian, the governor of the Song Dynasty who was about to take office as Fuzhou.

For a moment, the people in front of the prefect's palace were flowing endlessly, cars were like flowing water, horses were like dragons, and doors were crowded.

This is the last New Year that Li Sanjian celebrated in Quanzhou. After the New Year's official break, he will go to Fuzhou to take office with his family.

At the same time, this is also the last chance for a group of officials in Quanzhou to respect the Shangguan. In the future, the entire Fujian road will rely on Li Sanjian's breath. Therefore, how can the officials not come to the prefect's mansion to pay New Year's greetings early?

The person was not in Quanzhou, and the officials who worked outside the country also wished Li Sanjian and his family a happy new year by "submitting posts".

The so-called "posting" is also called "flying posts", which means that it is difficult to visit the New Year holiday, so family members or servants are sent to the name of the people to assassinate on behalf of others. This is the custom of the scholars and officials of the Song Dynasty who like to congratulate each other.

The scholars and officials of Song Dynasty had a wide range of friendships. If they came to visit the New Year everywhere, it would take time and energy. Therefore, some people who were not very close would pay New Year greetings in the form of "flying letters".

However, in most cases, "Flying Tie" is invested under a friend who has no power or power, so that he will not offend this person, but also preserves a little friendship.

For those who have no power or lose power, of course, are missing the door in front of the door. It is also an unexpected surprise to be able to get a "flying post"...

"Flying Tie" is made of plum blossom paper, two inches wide and three inches long, the name of the person who was congratulated, the words of congratulations, etc.

Each house must paste a red paper bag in front of the door, and write the word "receive blessing" to carry out the "flying post" and specially set up a "door sheet" to copy the guests or flying tablets.

It can even be compared with the "goods" bag or the "thin door" thickness, which is the head of the family is powerful or has a desperate journey.

The thicker the "receive blessing" bag or the "thin door", the thicker the people in the family are of course raising their chests and raising their heads, and proudly. In this way, a group of servants and servants of the prefect of Quanzhou were like this.

Of course, the one who came with the New Year greetings was a large number of gifts of various colors, but there was a small plaque hanging on the side of the "Good Receive" bag in front of the Quanzhou Prefect's Mansion.

The plaque is made of red characters on black and the words "refusing gifts" are written on it.

When people come, Li Sanjian and his family welcomed him and welcomed him to the mansion, but the gifts of various colors were rejected by Li Sanjian because Li Sanjian did not want to accept bribes for New Year greetings.

However, despite this, there were some officials, wealthy businessmen, especially those who met the old lady of the prefect's palace. The wealthy businessmen walked through the old lady and walked through the side door... such as Chen Yide, a great master of Quanzhou, and Li Dejun.

Li Sanjian's family was short of men, so he used Yao Yu, Zhang Kan, Shankui, Xu Biao, Yan Si, Wu Miaoshan, Li Gang, Fei Jingyang and others as guest envoys to welcome guests to greet the New Year.

There were also officials who came with their female relatives, wealthy merchant Kunshen and others, and their female relatives were Cai.

Rong Xue was welcomed by the women.

"Dong...Dong...Dong..."

"Dongdongqiang...Dongdongqiang..."

At this moment, outside the prefect's mansion, many people from Quanzhou suddenly came, which were so dark that they could not see the end at first sight.

At the same time, the gongs and drums are loud, and the sounds of gongs and drums resounded throughout the entire prefect's mansion, and could be heard within a radius of five miles.

There are many lion dancers among the people, such as "picking green", "drinking water on the high platform", "little spitting balls", and "stepping on plum blossom stakes". The lion dancers are dancing happily, and the people watching around cheer in unison, which is extremely lively.

The people also set off countless fireworks and firecrackers, crackling, adding a lot of festive atmosphere.

"What happened?" The movement outside the prefect's mansion had already alarmed Li Sanjian and other officials in Quanzhou and wealthy businessmen, so Li Sanjian led the people in the prefect's mansion to the outside of the prefect's mansion to see.

Many people not only alarmed Li Sanjian and others, but also the female family members in the family were alarmed. Like Fu Erniang, Cai Rongxue and others, they also walked out of the prefect's mansion and came to watch.

"I don't know, are the people celebrating the New Year?"

"No, this is the prefect's house? How could the people come here to celebrate the New Year?"

"Here, come, come here!"

Amid the discussion of the people in the prefect's house, the crowd gradually walked towards the prefect's house.

The people of Quanzhou were carrying several plaques. After the crowd approached, Li Sanjian and others could see clearly the words written on the plaque.

"Stamping with troubles, calming the pirates, and having a thousand years of merit!" These ten large black-backed white characters were written on a plaque.

"Light labor service, low taxes, and care for the people!" There are ten large black and white characters written on the other plaque.

"Eliminate old customs, change new faces, and be equal in etiquette!" These ten large white characters on the third plaque were written on it.

"Build roads and bridges, promote water conservancy, and benefit the people!" These ten large black-backed white characters are written on the plaque on the fourth side.

"The great public is selfless, honest and dedicated, Li Qingtian of the Song Dynasty!" The thirteen large black background and white characters are written on the fifth plaque.

Five huge plaques were carried to the prefect's mansion, and then the crowd became quiet. More than twenty white-haired elders came out and walked to Li Sanjian to salute together.

"Caomin is here to wish Li Qingtian a happy new year!"

"Caomin and others heard that Li Qingtian was about to go to Fuzhou to promote his career, and they specially received five merit cards!"

More than 20 white-haired elders then cried and said, "Don't leave me!"

"Don't leave me!" Countless people cried together.

Seeing this, Li Sanjian burst into tears. He took a few steps, walked to the people, held his fists and pushed them forward, bent down, bowed heavily, and said, "What kind of virtue is Li? How can you be so kind to be the kindness of all the fellows? Li is really ashamed! He is really speechless! Li is also unwilling to abandon Quanzhou and leave. However, Li dare not refuse to obey his orders. However, Li is from Shaowu, Fujian Road, so Quanzhou, Fujian is also the hometown of Li. No matter where Li goes, he should pay attention to Quanzhou and all the people of Quanzhou..."

Li Sanjian was sobbing that he couldn't continue to say anything.

Li Sanjian felt that he had not done anything for Quanzhou and the people of Quanzhou, or that he had not done enough, but the people of Quanzhou were like this, which moved Li Sanjian very much.

Even Li Sanjian was a little lustful and had a new beautiful concubine. Maybe there will be some in the future... Is there any honest official, is there such a official?

Selfless, honest and dedicated

Is lustful inseparable? Li Sanjian puzzled in his heart.

Fu Erniang, Cai Rongxue and others felt a little wet when they saw Li Sanjian like this.

The officials in Quanzhou were also secretly envious of them.

Fame and fortune, fame and fortune, fame comes first and profit comes later, fame exceeds profit. This is a well-known thing and is also something that officials pursue throughout their lives.

Li Sanjian was only over twenty years old and gained the greatest reputation in the world.

................

"Sir, Mother? Are you tired?"

The people, officials, and wealthy merchants Kunshen made New Year greetings for most of Li Sanjian, and it was not until after Chen Hou that he had some free time, so he hurried to visit his mother Fu Erniang's residence.

With so many people, don’t get tired of me, Li Sanjian thought in his heart.

"I...I don't know either..." Cai Yingxue, who followed Li Sanjian, replied quickly towards Fu Erniang's residence.

"You are not serving me, why are you following me?" Li Sanjian turned his head and looked at Cai Yingxueqi and said.

Since Li Sanjian received the New Year's greeting guests, Cai Yingxue has been following Li Sanjian evasively. At that time, Li Sanjian did not pay attention. Seeing that Cai Yingxue was still following him, he asked.

"I... my... my sister made me call myself my... I'm afraid." Cai Yingxue stammered.

"Haha, what are you afraid of? I'm afraid that I will eat you?" Li Sanjian was even more curious when he heard this and asked with a laugh.

A person who is not afraid of heaven or earth is actually scared to the point of being like a little quail at this time, which makes Li Sanjian secretly amused.

"No, I'm afraid..." Cai Yingxue gave Li Sanjian a white look, pinched her again and replied: "I...I'm not...I'm just afraid."

"Haha, don't be afraid, mom is a kind person, Yingxue." Li Sanjian said with a smile.

"Hmm?" Cai Yingxue responded.

"Let me tell you a secret. As long as you can give birth to a man and a half woman for my Li family, I'm grateful for it, it's too late." Li Sanjian dragged Cai Yingxue and whispered in her ear.

Li Sanjian's only regret at present is that Fu Erniang is anxious, that is, she has never had any children. Others of the same age as Li Sanjian, as long as they get married early, their sons and daughters are all in large groups. For example, Li Sanjian's friend Liu Anjie has already given birth to a son and a daughter...

Fu Erniang, including Li Sanjian, is anxious and resentful, but helpless.

If you can’t be born, you can’t be born. This is God’s will!

"Ah?!!! Come on, please don't come..." Cai Yingxue gave Li Sanjian a white look and then said, "You can't give birth to me, let me give birth to me, either."

"Haha!" Li Sanjian was even more happy when he heard this, and laughed loudly: "Yingxue, come over, you official, I have thought of another way. Those postures will definitely get a baby."

"Ah? Really?" Cai Yingxue opened her beautiful eyes wide and looked at Li Sanjian and asked in confusion.

"Of course it's true, why not give it a try?"

"Just try it, let's go!"

"Hey, why are you panic? You have to talk about it after visiting me, and then...

"What? Are you lying to me?!! Little thief, look for a fight, see what you want!"
