The marriage between Cao and Liu was in a sensation in Wei State and the formation was spectacular, but it was also lively in Chang'an. When the carriage of the wedding carriage drove into the city, it caused a sensation all over the city. More than 100,000 people welcomed the daughter of Cao on both sides of the street.

Although the entire wedding ceremony was very grand and lively, the wedding was simple and simple, without a luxurious show, nor a big banquet, and the official gift was rejected.

Amidst the sound of drums and music, Cao Xian was married into the Han Palace and married Liu Jing. Some important officials were invited to watch the ceremony. The whole wedding ceremony was simple and lively. Just after the wedding ceremony, Cao Xian officially became the second concubine of the Han Palace.

In marriages in the Han Dynasty, most high-ranking officials, kings and princes had wives and concubines. Except for the regular wives, not every woman had the same status. Generally speaking, if you are married, you will be a wife, and if you are running, you will be a concubine. In other words, if you are married according to the six rituals, you will be called a wife. However, the concubine has no rituals and can be quietly introduced.

But for high-ranking officials and princes, many people also have grand ceremonies to marry concubines, such as Dong Zhuo marries Huangfu Gui's widow, which is grand in scale and the wedding caused a sensation in Luoyang.

Therefore, there are differences between concubines. The officials who formulate etiquettes have a relatively high status among concubines, called mothers. In addition to the wife, they marry and mothers who run away.

Before Liu Jing was named King of Han, Sun Shangxiang was the mother and Xiao Baoniang was the concubine. However, Liu Jing was named King of Han, and Yi was the same as the Eastern Palace. In this way, Liu Jing's wife and concubine were different from ordinary people.

According to the Han system, only Tao Zhan could be called the princess, and the other concubines could only be called Liangdi and Ru. But in fact, the Han Dynasty called Sun Shangxiang the second concubine. This time, Cao Xian got married, and according to the consensus reached between the two parties, Cao Xian was also the second concubine.

However, Cao Cao still felt that it was not formal enough, so he ordered the world to issue an edict to list the second concubine as an internal official, with a rank of two thousand stones. He conferred his daughters Cao Xian and Sun Shangxiang as the second concubine of the Han Dynasty, and Qiao and Bao as the good wife. In this way, Cao Xian's status was higher than Sun Shangxiang, the second concubine of the left, and Sun Shangxiang as the second concubine of the right, which was also Cao Cao's good intention.

However, in the inner house of the Han Palace, these official positions are not considered. The Han Palace has its own rules. According to the number of seats at dinner, Tao Zhanju and Sun Shangxiang followed, Cao Xian ranked first, Xiao Qiao ranked fourth, and Bao Niang ranked fifth.

As for children, except for Shi Liu Zhi who must sit in a seat, the rest of them can sit at will without any intentional order.

This is a consensus within the Han Palace. Sun Shangxiang is indeed one level higher than Cao Xian. Of course, Cao Xian would not be dissatisfied. Not only did she respect Tao Zhan, she also respected other sisters, and all called them sisters.

Cao Xian's intelligence and well-behaved also won the love of everyone, and they soon got along well.

Cao Xian has a good relationship with Sun Shangxiang, especially. The Mingyue Tower where she lives is close to the Wanghu Pavilion where Sun Shangxiang lives, and is only a few dozen steps apart. They will come and go every day.

In the end of June, Cao Xian had been married into the Han Palace for almost twenty days. She had gradually become familiar with the people in the palace. However, Chang'an is very hot in summer, which is much hotter than Yedu, which makes her a little uncomfortable with the weather in Chang'an.

Fortunately, there was an ice cellar in the mansion. Ice cubes were placed in the walls of the small building where she lived, which made the room much cooler. Cao Xian refused to go downstairs and stayed in the room most of the time.

That morning, the hot sun was hanging in the sky. The weather was hot, and whenever I moved, I felt sweaty. Cao Xian stayed in his living room as usual, sitting in front of the window reading, holding a round fan in his hand, gently slapping the wind.

When she was a wife for the first time, Cao Xian was deeply loved by her husband. Her shortness made her satisfied with her marriage life. Her initial anxiety and worries gradually disappeared. She focused her whole thought on her husband and had a thought that if her husband really unified the world, she could accept it.

As her marriage life gradually got on track, her husband could not be with her alone every night, just like Bao Niang was obsessed with food, Xiao Qiao was intoxicated with music, Shang Xiang loved collecting weapons, and the mistress Tao Zhan wanted to manage the entire mansion. Everyone had their own affairs, and Cao Xian also began to find his own interests and hobbies.

Cao Xian loves reading books and also collects bamboo slips and scroll books from two rooms. Most of the big boxes she dowed was filled with her books, which is just a book she often reads.

Fortunately, there were enough empty rooms in Mingyue Tower, and she had already written a letter to go home and asked her father to transport all her books.

At this time, the maid outside the door smiled and said, "The second lady is here!"

Shangxiang is here. Cao Xian quickly put down the book and greeted him. When he happened to meet Sun Shangxiang, she walked in. She quickly smiled and took Sun Shangxiang's arm, "It's such a hot day, how can my second sister go out?"

"My sex is different from you. I can't stay in the room. For example, when you came to Chang'an, you stayed in the carriage for several days and nights. If it were me, I would have been driven crazy long ago."

Sun Shangxiang took out the handkerchief and wiped the sweat, looked at Cao Xian for a while, and smiled and said, "It's more beautiful and delicate than when I first came. It seems that that person moisturizes you well."

Cao Xian never made such a bold joke. She suddenly turned red with shame. She pinched Sun Shangxiang's hand and said embarrassedly: "What are the second sister talking about?"

Sun Shangxiang sat down and smiled, "When I first married her, I was as shy as you. After waiting for a long time, my skin became thicker, and you will be the same in the future."

Cao Xian sat down opposite Sun Shangxiang and asked in a low voice: "I will not be angry if I write to my father!"

"No! He doesn't care about these things. As long as you don't talk about state affairs, it doesn't matter if you write one a day."

Cao Xian nodded and said quietly: "I always thought that I was a political marriage and was destined to be a tragedy, but after getting married, I found that it was very different from what I thought. I can only say that I thought it was childish in the past."

Sun Shangxiang held her hand and sighed: "You don't think naively, but I am the same. I am not a political marriage, but we are lucky. When we meet a unique husband, he doesn't care about our parents' family, but he sincerely treats us as relatives, so that we can get rid of the misfortune of political marriage and have a real marriage. Xianmei, this marriage is hard-won, and you and I will cherish it."

Cao Xian nodded silently, "I understand!"

"Okay, let's not talk about these heavy topics. I'm here to tell you good news. We'll set out to go to the manor to escape the summer heat tomorrow. You can pack up your things today!"

Cao Xian screamed in shock and said anxiously: "But I have so many books, how can I deal with it? My father is going to deliver my books in the next few days. What should I do if I am not here?"

"Don't worry about these. The housekeeper will send you a dozen large boxes later. Put the things you have to bring into the box, and bring a few less volumes of the book. Then you can come back to pick up whatever you want. Anyway, try to streamline them as much as possible, and they will move the box away."

Cao Xian then breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "How long will we go and where are we?"

"It's less than two months! I just came back before Bai Lu. I heard that in Yong County, it turned out to be a royal village with mountains and waters, beautiful scenery, and very cool. I couldn't wait."

Not long after the Fei family handed over the land, the Han Dynasty carried out its first land enfeoffment. Ordinary civilians had Yongye land, with male and female 80 mu each, and those who joined the army added 50 mu of military land. It has been implemented in the Han Dynasty for many years.

Of course, officials and generals should also have their own Yongyetian. For military generals, Yongyetian is divided into feudals according to titles and military positions, while officials are obtained by official qualifications and official positions.

Generally speaking, there are five sources of land for officials. One is the ancestral property. The Han Dynasty recognizes the ancestral property, but there are also restrictions, that is, it cannot exceed the Yongye Field Standard, and the extra part must be paid.

The second is Yongyetian. This standard is fixed once it is formulated and is strictly prohibited for trading. It can be inherited from generation to generation. If the heirs disappear and there is no designated heir, Yongyetian will be confiscated and returned to the government.

The first source is purchase. The land that can be traded is called production land. In addition to Yongye land, it is usually newly reclaimed land or new land obtained by expanding territory. For example, the land in Lingzhou and Hexi belongs to production land.

The fourth source is that they receive special rewards for their achievements. The rewarded land was allocated from the official fields. Generals such as Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, and others were rewarded from different courses.

The fifth source is quite special, that is, the division of land. Each official position has a corresponding division of land. The land output belongs to the officials. In fact, it is a kind of job subsidy. Once an official resigns, the division of land must be returned.

The land system is very complicated, so I just want to say a few words here. As the King of Han, Liu Jing obtained a thousand hectares of land, and another five hectares of land.

Liu Jing’s Yongye Field is located in Shenyou Mountain in Yong County. It turned out to be the summer resort of the Western Han Dynasty and the location of the imperial patio of emperors of all dynasties.

A thousand hectares of land cover a large area, only half of the arable land, and the other half is a lonely mountain with beautiful scenery. A jade belt-like clear water swirls around the mountain. There are waterfalls, strange rocks and towering trees on the mountain. There was originally a palace on the mountain. After years of wind and rain, it has been disrepair and collapsed.

However, this place was chosen by Liu Jing as early as last year. The palace on the mountain was rebuilt, and troops were stationed around the foot of the mountain, and there were tenant farmers responsible for cultivating nearly five hectares of fertile land.

After a long journey for a day, King Liu Jing of Han brought his family to the farm with his family under the escort of thousands of soldiers.

Liu Jing rode on the horse and pointed to the beautiful mountains and clear waters in the distance and smiled at his wife and children: "That kind of mountain is called Shenyou Mountain. Legend has it that a god passed by here and fell a jade pendant from his pocket, turning into this mountain. The small river at the foot of the mountain is the silk ribbon on the jade pendant."

Everyone was crowding in the car window and looking up the mountain, they saw clouds and mist on the hillside, and the mountain was incredibly beautiful and full of spiritual energy. White cranes were flying in the mountains, as if they were truly a place for gods.

Everyone was amazed together, but they didn't expect the mountain to be so beautiful. Tao Zhan sighed: "This is really a place of immortals!"

Seeing that his family liked it, Liu Jing couldn't help but feel proud and smiled, "This is the place I have been looking for for a long time. Now it is my Yongye Field and our other home. I hope everyone can like it."

At this moment, Tao Zhan suddenly remembered something and smiled at Liu Jing and said, "Da Qiao said she was feeling uncomfortable today and could not walk with us. I will pick her up tomorrow or the next day."
