Chapter 743 The army returns (Thanks to Lalan Xixi for the monthly ticket~)
The fourth day of July is the beginning of autumn.
Li Sanniang got up early. Two days ago, she heard from people at the drug rehabilitation center that a large army returning from the border town was stationed only ten miles away.
Why did you stay outside the city after arriving in Chang'an?
First, in order to manage this group of tens of thousands of returning soldiers, it is natural to manage them well before receiving rewards, so as to avoid causing trouble to the public security in Chang'an City.
Second, before Emperor Wu gave out rewards for meritorious service, Emperor Wu would take the lead in honoring the loyal souls who died fighting for the Tang Dynasty in the Martyrs' Shrine outside the city.
This is a ceremony that all soldiers must participate in. Even the auxiliary soldiers, such as the fire-headed soldiers who cook, also have to participate in this memorial ceremony.
So this army is now stationed outside the city, waiting for today's arrival.
Li Sanniang and other doctors were also notified early, of course by the Imperial Medical Office. This time, Director Wang of the Imperial Medical Office will bring dozens of doctors from the Chang'an Medical Alliance to watch the ceremony.
After all, military doctors also played a great role in this war. Emperor Wu would definitely reward the doctors of the Imperial Medical Office when he reviewed their merits.
As for why these doctors from the Chang'an Medical Alliance, not the Imperial Medical Office, were brought to the ceremony?
In Wang Shuzheng’s words: “We have to let them see that the doctors in our Imperial Medical Office also have good reputations and are meritorious officials.
In this way, they can control our Imperial Medical Office. It’s a good place, and I’m trying my best to get in.
Besides, I’m afraid this drug rehabilitation center will have people all year round, so I have to give them a taste of it, right?” br>
Li Sanniang put on the dark blue clothes that Li's mother had made for her today. Linglan carefully inserted a wooden hairpin into Li Sanniang's bun.
"Master, isn't it too plain? Even if you are going to attend a memorial ceremony, this is too..."
Li Sanniang looked at the bronze mirror. She was so skillful with lily of the valley that she was able to comb her hair without losing hair. She was really impressed by her bun. She shook her head slightly and responded to Suzuran's words: "What I want is simplicity. I am going to attend the memorial ceremony, so this is good. There is no need to wear hair accessories."
According to the agreed time, Li Sanniang and Qiuxiang, who was also wearing dark blue clothes, stood in the open space outside the drug rehabilitation center and waited.
On this day, no one is missing, and soon everyone will be there.
Ning Yizheng said a few words, and everyone went to look for carriages.
When Li Sanniang and Qiuxiang were about to find the carriage arranged by the Imperial Medical Office, Grandma Yan came over and said, "The princess knows that Dr. Li is also going to the Martyrs' Shrine, so she asked me to ask if Dr. Li is willing to come to our county." Let’s go together with the Lord’s carriage.”
Li Sanniang didn’t expect that Princess Qingyang was still thinking of her, so she quickly bowed to Aunt Yan, “Thank you very much, Princess, for still thinking of me. Then Qiuxiang and I would like to thank each other very much.”
In this way, Li Sanniang and Qiuxiang walked forward and followed Grandma Yan onto Princess Qingyang’s carriage.
Not to mention, the carriage of the princess is much larger than that of an ordinary carriage. It is really spacious. There are only the princess and a maidservant sitting inside, plus Li Sanniang, Qiuxiang and Yan Yan. Mom, there is still room in this carriage.
In addition to the carriages of their group, there were also many horse-drawn carriages on the official road.
Everyone in Chang'an City knew that Emperor Wu would pay homage to the soldiers who died in this battle at the Martyrs' Shrine outside Chang'an City with the army returning to Chang'an.
Not to mention, today is the Beginning of Autumn, which is already a ten-day holiday. Someone in the family who is an official will leave the city a day or two early to live in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city. Then he will go directly from Zhuangzi to the Martyrs' Shrine.
As for the rest of the people who wanted to see this memorial ceremony, they could only go to the Martyrs' Shrine along the official road as soon as the city gate opened early in the morning. In this way, the official road is somewhat congested at the moment.
Earlier, when Li Sanniang returned to the Li family, she asked Li’s father and Li’s mother whether they should go to the Martyrs’ Shrine on the outskirts of the city to pay homage. Li’s father and Li’s mother thought about it but refused.
Although there will be Jinwu guards and street patrols to maintain order, there will definitely be a lot of people, and it will be bad if something happens.
Li Sanniang thought about it and felt that it was indeed inappropriate.
However, the three fathers and sons of the Li family will be there. Brother Li, as the Jinwu Guard, must guard the carriage of Emperor Wu. Li Dalang was originally a soldier when the army returned this time. Li Erlang It's Lang Guan from the Assistant Director's Department of the Ministry of War who must be going.
There were many people, many cars and horses. Fortunately, this was all planned, and the genius came out the door just after dawn.
In the carriage, Princess Qingyang also treated Li Sanniang to some cakes, "I guess Dr. Li won't have time to have breakfast if he leaves so early. I'm afraid he will have to wait for more than an hour when he arrives. That's it.
Dr. Li, please take some to relieve your stomach. "
As Princess Qingyang said, Li Sanniang got up early and thought she and Qiuxiang had nothing to eat, but Li Sanniang did have candy cubes specially placed by Sungling in her sleeve pocket.
"What the princess said is that Qiuxiang and I really haven't had any water, so I won't be polite to the princess. "
Li Sanniang took the plate of four cakes handed over by Granny Yan and Qiuxiang shared two pieces each.
After nearly an hour of traveling, the carriage stopped and listened. The groom of the princess carriage explained outside that it turned out that this place had been controlled for a long time, and there were soldiers in front. This meant that the carriage could no longer move forward. If you wanted to get in, you had to get off the car and walk.
Li Sanniang was a little surprised by this, because she was sitting on the princess frame at this time.
The last time Li Sanniang came here to pay homage to Dr. Guo of Yuande Hall who died on the front line during the epidemic, she came as a citizen and got off the carriage when she arrived at the door. Walked all the way in.
Unexpectedly, as a royal princess, she would have to dismount and walk when she arrived here.
Princess Qingyang saw Li Sanniang’s surprise. Dressed in dark clothes with only a silver hairpin on her head, Princess Qingyang explained to Li Sanniang: “It is prescribed by the saint.< br>
The saint once said that the loyal souls in the Zhonglie Temple and the Zhonglie Mausoleum all died for the Tang Dynasty and the people of the Tang Dynasty. As a living person, even the princes and nobles had to dismount their horses and walk over in person.
< br>
This is the respect that the living should do for them. "
Li Sanniang raised her head and looked at Princess Qingyang steadily. Li Sanniang could hear the seriousness and agreement in Princess Qingyang's words.
"Yes, it is precisely because of them. , Only then can we live a stable and peaceful life. "
After Li Sanniang and Qiuxiang got off the carriage, they said goodbye to Princess Qingyang. After all, Li Sanniang came with the Imperial Medical Office, so her position was naturally different from that of the royal princess.
But after getting off the carriage, Li Sanniang looked at the crowd of Wuyang Wuyang people around her and had some real feelings about this memorial ceremony
Li Sanniang and Qiuxiang spent a while trying to figure out the direction before they found where the person from the Imperial Medical Office was. It took them another quarter of an hour to walk over.
Thank you Lalan Xixi for voting 4 monthly votes. Thank you very much for your continued support and encouragement to me!
====================
There are so many new TV series released recently!
I feel that domestic dramas have been very popular in recent years, but why are they not released on the same APP? It is really expensive to open a membership here and a membership there.
