(Go to the net.) As soon as the bell and drum of the first watch fell, the carriage and horse slowly drove into Jingyang Palace. Go and see the net.
Jingyang Palace occupies an extremely important position in the process of royal marriage, and this will be the first stop of my wedding with Zhize.
"If you're sleepy, sleep for a while. Seeing that I was yawning, Zhize hugged me gently and considerately.
I'd love to sleep, but it's an uncomfortable position right now. I reluctantly pointed to the heavy crown above my head. There were so many gold and silver objects hanging in the area that my neck ached.
"This..."Zhi Ze looked at me at a loss, and smiled apologetically: "There's no way around this, Xiaoxiao, you can bear with it first, just get through this day." Test Text Watermark 6. β
I'm going to wear this thing for a day? When I heard this, I suddenly felt the urge to cry.
From time to time, the roar of firecrackers was heard outside the hall, and with the light brought by the fireworks blooming in the sky, staring at Zhize in front of him, a festive red dress made people feel dizzy, as hazy as the characters in the painting.
"Zhize, am I dreaming?" Feeling the warmth of the embrace behind him, a feeling of happiness arose. Test Text Watermark 9.
Zhi Ze held my hands tightly, looking at the colorful starry sky in the distance, his face was full of happiness: "Xiaoxiao, this is not a dream, this is our life, this is our life!"
"Bride and groom, drink the royal wineβ" The door was gently pushed open, and two groups of festive palace maids poured in, and the two leading ones, each holding a delicate jade box in their hands, came to us.
"Lord and Princess, this is the pre-wine specially given by the saint and the queen mother today, may the newlyweds drink this cup of wine, marry the same friends forever, and have many sons and blessings!" After the two palace maids finished smiling, they gently lifted the lid of the jade box, and two wine glasses filled with elixir appeared in front of them. Test text watermark 7.
These palace maids are really smart, and when they say something, Zhi Ze and I look at each other and smile a little shyly.
This is the imperial wine given by the emperor, I carefully observed, the one in front of me was given by the emperor, so the cup is golden, and the cup of Zhize is given by the queen, and the cup is silver. Test Text Watermark 9.
Drink, drink this cup, and I will be the princess of the right name!
"Wrong, wrong!" was about to reach out and take the glasses when there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the hall. The two palace maids reacted quickly and retracted their outstretched arms, allowing the two of us to pounce. Zhize and I glanced at each other, apparently he didn't know what was going on.
At this moment, an elderly palace maid suddenly appeared outside the door of the store, and said with a panicked expression: "Wrong, the boxes of the two families were sent by the wrong one, and this wine is His Royal Highness the King of Chengdu." Test Text Watermark 1. "Since we got married on the same day, we are in the east hall of Jingyang Palace, and Shiyu and Wanyun live in the west hall.
As she spoke, the palace maid stepped forward and bowed to Zhi Ze and said, "Lord Wang, you will wait a while, and the slaves and maids will change the wine." β
"It's okay!" After understanding the truth of the matter, Zhi Ze shook his head with a smile: "It's okay, there is no difference between this imperial wine, and the third brother is not someone else." So saying, he got up and took his glass.
"Hey, the prince's words are wrong. The palace maid in front of Zhi Ze was quick-eyed, and suddenly turned sideways to protect the jade box behind her, and said with a smile on her face: "The prince doesn't know, this imperial wine can't be messed around casually, the imperial wine given by the emperor to the king of Chengdu is just hoping that the king of Chengdu can be a good vassal king, but the wine given to His Royal Highness is different." Test Text Watermark 1. After that, a pair of beautiful eyes looked at Zhize with a smile, and there was something in his eyes.
The emperor's expectations for each prince will naturally be different, but as for what the difference is, there is no need to point it out. Zhi Ze was stunned for a moment, but still hesitantly took his hand back.
While he was talking, the palace maids had already changed the wine. Test text watermark 8. With the newly brought in imperial wine, the two palace maids walked in front of us again.
"As the saying goes, good things are grinding, the prince and princess will be able to grow old together in the future, and the two newcomers are invited to drink this cup. β
"You people in Xiaoming Palace, are they all as eloquent as you?" Zhi Ze tilted his head and looked at the palace maid holding the jade box in front of him with interest, as if he was still angry about her obstruction just now.
The surprised expression disappeared from her face in a blink of an eye, and she said with a smile: "The prince said that he laughed, the slave maid is a subordinate who serves the masters, where can he dare to rap in front of His Royal Highness and Niangniang." Test Text Watermark 5. β
After listening to her words, Zhi Ze didn't speak, just stood up, came to the palace maid who was kneeling in front of me, and said provocatively to the palace maid: "You didn't let me drink that cup of wine just now, and now this king wants to drink this cup, how about it?"
"I can't help it!" Zhi Ze suddenly had an extra hand on his sleeve, and when he raised his eyes, he found that it was the old woman who had just entered the door who stopped Zhi Ze, and it was really suspicious to see her frightened expression, but it was just a joke, could she be so serious?
The old woman saw Zhi Ze staring at her angrily, and then fell to her knees, but the hand still did not take away from Zhi Ze's cuffs: "Lord, please forgive the old slave for saying bluntly, this is not the time to frolic, please also ask the prince and Niangniang to drink the imperial wine as soon as possible, don't miss the auspicious time."

"Okay, Zhize, don't make trouble, let's drink it quickly. Seeing that the atmosphere was a little tense, I hurriedly got up to play a round and said a few words of relief, Zhize's face slowly eased, and he drank the imperial wine in front of me according to etiquette. Test text watermark 7.
Putting down the wine glass in my hand, a palace maid immediately came to me with a piece of red satin. The old woman smiled and said, "Mother, you must put on your head, and you must wear it from now until evening, and you must not uncover it yourself, lest you lose your blessing." β
"Zhize, where are you?" Looking out from the inside of the hijab, he could only dimly see the flickering candle flame on the candlestick, and he didn't know anything else.
"I'm here. Suddenly, I felt that my hand that was groping in the air was being held tightly by the other hand, and my panicked heart gradually calmed down.
"Have they all gone down, why is it so quiet?" listened carefully with his ears, as if all the noise was coming from a distant place.
"Well, they're all down. Zhi Ze's tone sank slightly, and he didn't seem to be very happy.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry, it's a good day, be happy. "I know he's still haunted by what happened.
"I'm just trying to make a joke, everyone is lively together, look at them..."
"Alright," I shook his arm to stop him from complaining, "I know you're just trying to make a joke, maybe you're usually too serious, and they think you're serious when you make a joke once in a while." β
"Probably. Zhi Ze said with a smile, as if he had been relieved.
