On August 15, the moonlight was melting.

Under the orange candlelight, the kind voice of the courtesy official was like the chanting of the bell: "Worship heaven and earth." ”

Chen Jieqi and Li Yue, who were wearing the bride and groom dresses, slowly worshipped heaven and earth.

"Two worship high halls. ”

Chen Jieqi said that his parents were both dead, and Mrs. Li was in Kunming. Xi Niang picked Li Yue up and faced southwest. The rich flowers embroidered with gold silk hung down, and Li Yue, who was wearing a prosperous and beautiful dress, looked graceful and quiet, with a pair of jade hands with skin like condensed fat, and slightly bent her knees to show her graceful figure.

Chen Jieqi's body is like a jade tree, his eyebrows are like ink paintings, and his eyes are like paint. After bowing solemnly to the southwest, he slowly straightened up, facing the almost empty central hall with only a dozen people, Chen Jieqi's handsome face had a dizzying smile.

"Husband and wife worship each other. ”

Chen Jieqi's gaze rested on the red head cover that shimmered with golden light. Today is the wedding that he has in mind, according to the custom of the wedding, Li Yue sat in the wedding sedan chair carried by four people, he knew that the wedding of the Han people was said to be eight sedan chairs; according to the custom of the second marriage, this wedding was also held at night; it was specially chosen on August 15, and the families were all reunited, and only the young couple of Le Xi and Li Jiang, Song Duofu and the Song family of three, and several brothers who took care of each other that he met in Longheling.

This is not the wedding he wants to give to Li Yue.

The robe was lifted up, Chen Jieqi lowered his eyelids, a pair of eyes shining with a sharp light when no one was looking, and a haughty and uninhibited smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

In the future, he must hold a new wedding and give Li Yue a grand wedding. In the splendid palace, in front of the majestic Buddha statue, he had to feast all the monks, his subordinates and the common people. He wanted the whole Ayutthaya to greet their queen with the most solemn ceremony and the most jubilant enthusiasm.

At the same moment, Li Fei was in the sheng song and swallow dance, and the palace banquet was staggered several times, and the beautiful dance in front of him and the light music in his ears were all blank.

Under the wide sleeves, Zhao Yanheng held Li Fei's hand hard, and when he turned his head, he showed a clean and handsome smile.

Li Fei came back to his senses, saw that the position in front of him was empty, and he missed something in a trance, so he hurriedly asked, "Where did the third sister and the concubine go?"

"They went to entertain themselves. Zhao Yanheng and Li Fei exchanged their heads and said.

Li Fei looked up at the bright full moon, and listened to Princess Shouchun and the concubine Liutan play a gentle and sorrowful movement with a gong hou and a long flute. That sorrow, Li Fei was not the only one who heard it, Princess Shouchun's adoptive mother, Concubine Zhen, smiled to the emperor and said: "It sounds very good, but how can the concubine be a little sad when she hears it, under the big festival, the two children are not sensible." ”

The emperor was easy-going, smiled gently, and said, "You don't understand, this is a good song." ”

Princess Shouchun and Liu Tan walked to the front of the palace, the emperor and his daughter and son-in-law talked for a while, Liu Tan returned to the seat, and Princess Shouchun took Concubine Zhen to the banquet of Jing Concubine and the Nine Emperor Princes.

Concubine Jing wore a ginger palace dress, the moonlight was bright, and her heavy makeup could not see her true complexion, and there was still a pleasant color between talking with the concubine's mother and daughter. At the Mid-Autumn Festival Night Banquet, everyone showed their best side.

The four-year-old Nine Emperor Prince raised his head and looked up for a while, perhaps too bored to listen, and ran to Concubine De's seat, where Concubine De peeled grapes for him to eat.

There are too many concubines and heirs in the royal family, and they gather together like a string of relatives.

Zhao Yanheng pulled up Li Fei and toasted to the emperor.

The sweet chrysanthemum wine was held at the root of his tongue, and the emperor suddenly said to Li Fei: "Today is your mother's marriage?"

"Yes, Father. Li Feitian laughed and said: "The fifth brother and the third sister have sent congratulatory gifts, as well as dozens of old friends such as the Qianguo Mansion and the Qingping Bo Mansion, and Mrs. Liao in Yangzhou also sent a statue of Guanyin...... "There is no congratulatory gift from the Xuanguo Mansion."

The second marriage is a redundant marriage, and all the prefectures are tacit gifts to people, and they are not bad for a gift money.

"The stepfather also has a place. "The emperor said that the boss was not happy. He is also awkward when he is old, and he feels that Chen Jieqi, as a descendant of the declining Annan royal family and a former bandit, has lost the title of captain of Yiwei after he has entered the army, and his status is too low.

With such a low status, according to family etiquette, it can be counted as half a son-in-law.

Zhao Yanheng played with the silver-gilded chisel flower seven-sided cup in his hand, and smiled lightly, looking indifferent.

Li Fei looked slightly embarrassed, and then smiled with relief: "Erchen feels that the dignity of the royal family cannot be damaged in the slightest. Father, sons, and only two fathers, the father and the emperor, and the one who met in the future, saluted the uncle. ”

Zhao Yanheng turned his back to everyone, and even Li Fei was left behind, standing tightly next to the emperor's royal table, the big red prince's dress and the emperor's bright yellow dragon robe were combined, Zhao Yanheng lowered his head and said in a low voice: "When you leave, you don't say that you will be separated from each other, and everyone will be happy." Xuanguo Gong was happy in a month, Mrs. Li raised my princess alone, the years are like a shuttle, only to find joy, you are relieved. ”

The emperor was amused and angry, and said, "I don't think about your decency. ”

"That's even more inadmissible. Zhao Yanheng deliberately glanced meaningfully at the emperor's concubine.

In addition to the queen, Concubine De, Concubine Zhen, and Concubine Zhuang, the four wives and concubines of the emperor are from the concubines of the official eunuchs of the third grade or above, and the others are either concubines, or from the families of minor officials of the sixth or seventh grades, and there are several concubines such as Concubine Li, Jing Concubine, and Xiang Concubine. Then these women were admitted to the harem, and there were more relatives of the emperor, and many of them were poor relatives who became rich overnight.

Zhao Yanheng's tone was particularly disdainful, and said: "Concubine Xiang's mother's family, don't smash your mouth when you eat now." ”

Xiang Concubine was a concubine when Zhao Yanheng was nine years old, and after the canonization of the concubine, according to the system, Xiang Concubine's mother's family entered the palace to give food, obviously learned Yu Yue's rules is to teach people well, maybe they entered the palace to see the royal majesty, and they were so stunned that they forgot it all.

As soon as the palace people who served the meal said outside, there were a group of people who were jealous of the concubine's holy family, and no one knew about it, and the concubine gradually fell out of favor after half a year's scenery.

Now this concubine, who has lost her favor for a long time, can only show her face in front of the emperor during the festival every year, and appears there in full makeup, and the emperor may not look at her properly.

The emperor was ridiculed by his son in person, saying that he was annoyed, but what kind of family his concubine and concubine were behind him, he himself also knew, when he looked at women, he did what he wanted, and then threw them aside, and his own inner house supported them for a lifetime, the emperor didn't need to worry about it, and he didn't care much, but he just feigned anger and said: "It's getting more and more unruly, it's all arranged on your Lao Tzu's head, who your Lao Tzu is, you can see it clearly." ”

Zhao Yanheng hung his head and obediently received the training, and after listening to the training, he raised his head and smiled, without fear at all, and said: "You are the emperor, you are the emperor's old son, you have to be the best temper of the old man, the court is a trivial matter every day, and the father's self-cultivation is good." ”

"What?" The emperor smiled with a hint of sharpness, and said, "Do you think the things that go up are trivial?"

Zhao Yanheng scratched the back of his neck, and said with a smile: "Governing the country is like governing the family, that is, thinking about the people's daily firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, the people have too many areas, and the areas are too wide, and things are piled up on the imperial case, and every official also takes out a fiery posture, so many things are piled together, and everyone is shouting and hurrying to do it, this is a matter of vision." When a man falls into a well, his vision is as big as the mouth of the well. The father is rich all over the world, overlooking all living beings, and those things that are urgent and difficult to do are trivial in the eyes of the father. ”

"There are a lot of crooked reasons in your mouth!" The emperor actually liked the arrogance of his seventh son, his eyebrows jumped, and the corners of his eyes were full of wrinkles when he smiled: "Don't let the ministers hear these words, otherwise the people will be the second king of your society and the second king will be a lot of lighter truths, and those imperial history rotten Confucians will have to chase King Xiang to discuss it well." ”

Zhao Yanheng had already closed his mouth like a river mussel, and just blinked his eyes to indicate that he was taught.

At the palace banquet, even Li Fei couldn't hear what the father and son were saying, and the people in the future couldn't hear it even more clearly, so they could only see the father and son of the heavenly family talking happily.

King Jing stared intently at the emperor and Zhao Yanheng, pinching the thin wine handle, raising his neck, the wine glass was empty, and only two drops of wine fell.

Fang Peiyi saw King Jing's gaffe, and picked up the Yue kiln blue glaze flower banquet character pattern injection pot, but said to King Jing with a smile: "Come, Your Highness, the concubine will have a drink with you." ”

At this time, Concubine Shu wore a smoky willow-colored palace skirt, hugged Princess Taihe to the front of the palace, and smiled happily: "Your Majesty, listen, our daughter will shout 'Father'." ”

"Oh, Sirou can't speak yet, Taihe is the first to speak. The emperor's eyes were immediately attracted by the youngest child.

Taihe was very much cared for by the emperor's father, and the little child was only dependent on a lamb, and the silver bell shaking her hands rushed towards her father.

The emperor also hugged him very naturally, and let Taihe sit on his lap face to face, weighed his weight and said, "It's only been a few days and it's been a lot more solid." ”

The two nurses carried her in the imperial garden every day, and their legs were thin. Concubine Shu touched Taihe's double chin and urged: "You shout again, Father Huangqing is waiting." ”

Concubine Shu deliberately said the word 'father' heavily and slowly, waiting for Taihe to parrot it, but Taihe ignored it, and suddenly became interested in the gorgeous twelve chapters on the emperor's dragon robe, stretched out her two hands and wanted to touch it, but her hands were too short to touch, and her upper body pounced on her.

The emperor lovingly hugged his little daughter to his chest.

Taihe's face was close to the emperor, his pink lips squirmed twice, and he opened his mouth and said: "Father......" The emperor couldn't say the word, but sprayed the emperor's face.
