Chapter Forty-Four: Poor Night Away Drunk and Crazy
Stu Cheng • Ying's Clan Temple.
The corridor leading to the temple has already laid out a grand ceremony, Yinghong and the ministers of civil and military affairs are dressed appropriately, with solemn expressions, come to witness the grand occasion of Princess Zixi's upcoming marriage and worship the temple.
Sure enough, not long after, Ao Hao and Princess Zixi came one after another, surrounded by all the maids.
The presiding elder holds a flat plate of water in his left hand, holds a cypress branch in his right hand, and greets him on the ground, dips the cypress branch in the water, sprinkles it on the newcomer three times, and then leads the two people slowly into the temple.
On the main hall of the temple, there are countless spirit cards of various sizes, stacked layer by layer as if a pagoda, surrounded by incense candles, flickering non-stop, sacrifices, fruits, flowers are placed on the sacrificial table, and the huge sandalwood is lit in the furnace of the next head, and the fireworks are swirling, and it is very solemn.
Under the auspices of the chief elders, Ao Hao and Princess Zixi completed various ceremonies such as lighting candles and incense, drinking divine water, and praying for blessings, and all the ministers of civil and military affairs rushed up to congratulate them.
The arrogance was happy, and the Kejing people were exempted from paying taxes for six years on the spot.
All the ministers of civil and military affairs were overjoyed and shouted long live Botuo.
According to the customs of the Kajing people, the man is not allowed to complete the grand ceremony at the woman's house. Arrogant and extravagant naturally already knew this taboo, and in order to hug the beauty, he could naturally degrade himself and be wronged for a while.
After the temple worship was completed, Ao Hao couldn't wait to pass the decree back to the Tiandu Holy Palace.
Yinghong couldn't bear to see his daughter leave, and under the pretext that the Stu City Rebellion was initially scheduled to be busy, he pushed his entourage to Tiandu to attend the wedding ceremony, and ordered Yu Gen to escort the princess into the palace.
At that time, at the end of the day, firecrackers were lit and the guard of honor was activated.
Yinghong led the large and small civil and military forces of Stu City to send out of the east city gate and said goodbye to Princess Zixi with tears.
I saw the festival fluttering, the axe stuffed into the air, and the traffic went straight to the Tiandu Holy Palace.
Ao Hao and Princess Zixi sat in the Huangluo umbrella treasure car, one was proud, and the other frowned.
Na Lijiao had already been arranged in a small incense car, and walked behind, unable to express the miserable feeling of being old, but she did not regret her intestines, and regretted that she should not have persuaded Botuo to come to the city in the first place.
But there is one more tragic person than Lihuan, and that is Yeli!
When he left the palace of Princess Xixi at night, he fainted. After waking up, he didn't say a word, he was as chaotic as a fool, he was placed in a carriage, and he was accompanied by the master of ceremonies.
The brigade traveled through the state and county, all the way to the mighty road, and the local officials all greeted and saw them off.
In just a few days, the royal car has already traveled to the south gate of the Tiandu Holy Palace.
But I have already heard several cannons, bells and drums rang out in unison, fireworks and cannons rose into the sky, it turned out that the eldest prince Yinguang had already received a report from the fast horse, led the civil and military officials out of the palace, set up a guard of honor, and greeted the holy car.
For a while, the people and horses slowly entered the city and walked straight to the front of the holy palace.
Ao Hao took Princess Zixi and slowly got off the Huangluo umbrella treasure car, picked up the steps and ascended to the Jinluan Palace.
Hundreds of civil and military officials came up to congratulate them. Standing arrogant and arrogant, accepting the praise of the ministers.
After the ministers finished the ceremony, they proudly proclaimed: 1. Canonized the princess of Kejing, Yingzixi, as Mrs. Xi and lived in Huining Palace; 2. His father Kejing Marquis Yinghong was crowned as the national abbot and gave him the axe and Yue Festival (later returned to Stu City on the Genzhi Festival); 3. The wedding ceremony was held that night, and a banquet was held in the palace, and the ministers rejoiced.
Tiandu Holy Palace, ribbons hanging, lights like the sea, a magnificent and festive image.
The wedding ceremony is over, and the banquet is set on the table.
Pride and luxury are entrenched in the middle of the main feast, and everyone is drunk if the wine is not drunk, so the spring breeze is proud!
Princess Zixi was radiant and shining, sitting on one side, but her smile was a little desolate.
Hundreds of civil and military officials went to the hall one after another to toast and congratulate.
Arrogant and arrogant, he swallowed wine like a cow, but Princess Zixi didn't like the smell of wine, and choked her throat several times, choking on her jade face and tears falling down.
Yeli sat on the side of the main feast, glancing at Princess Zixi's every move, the heart seemed to be grasped, cut one by one with a sharp knife, and the pain was so painful that it bleed, and he was dull for a few days on the way, and Yeli's spirit recovered slightly, so the sadness became more and more at this time.
He wanted to stop Princess Zixi from eating wine, but because of his father, he only buried his head in the whale and drank salamanders, gobbled them up, and he ate a lot of food in a few days, looking at those toasting courtiers, as if there were more and more, it was because he was drunk and dazzled at night, and he saw that everyone was caught in pairs.
At this time, the warlock Fan Sinu also came to His Royal Highness to toast the newlyweds and congratulate the jubilee, and praised the princess for not only being beautiful at a young age, but also with a slender waist and round hips, which is a wonderful product in the cultivation of Tan Cui's technique.
Yeli was drunk and confused, and he didn't know Tan Cui's skills, and when he heard Fan Xinu's words, he seemed to have the meaning of Princess Zixi, and he couldn't help but get angry. He stood up from the table, shook forward, snatched Fansinu's glass with his hand, and shouted:
"Eat wine, eat wine!Where is all this nonsense? Come on, come on...... Your wine glass is too small, if you want to eat, take a big jar, and the second prince will accompany you to drink enough today!" Ye Li said, smashed the wine glass to the ground, grabbed the wine jar on the table next to him, raised his neck, and drank wildly.
Fansinu felt abrupt, and he was so frightened that he tightened his neck and did not dare to squeak.
All the ministers of civil and military affairs looked at the night and left, and they were surprised and stunned one by one, and they were inexplicable.
Seeing that he suddenly went crazy during the night and left the banquet, his behavior was abnormal, and he was neither aware nor happy, he shouted: "Li'er, don't be rude!"
"Hahahaha...... Happy...... Come and eat a few bites, too!" Ye Li seemed to have heard of it, staggering and laughing, holding the wine jar in one hand and grabbing the collar of Fansinu with the other, wanting to pour wine.
Van Sinu was stunned with fright, his legs were weak, and he couldn't walk.
"Brother, don't make mistakes. Yinguang saw that Yeli was drunk, and was worried that he would disturb his father's wedding banquet, so he walked out of his seat and pulled Ye Lidao, "I see if my brother is drunk, let's go down and rest first." ”
Other princes, such as San Zhengjing and others, also came up to persuade them.
"Brother, where am I drunk! Where am I drunk...... I'm very sober!" Yeli shouted and shouted, and at the same time raised the jar of wine and drank wildly, his steps staggering, and his figure staggered.
Fansinu took this opportunity to hook his head and bend his waist, and slipped away.
Yeli swayed on the main hall, shouting, arrogant in his eyes, more and more unhappy, and said with a calm face: "Guang'er, quickly help Li'er down to sober up, don't let him mess around here, and disturb the ministers' excitement of eating and drinking." ”
"Yes, Father. Yinguang promised, and half-helped and half-pushed Yeli away from the banquet.
Princess Zixi drunkenly glanced at the night away from the staggering distance, tears suddenly dripping silently like pearls, she was afraid of being seen, raised her sleeves to cover her face, and wiped away her tears. Who can understand at this moment: every teardrop that Princess Zixi drops contains her unforgettable pain.
...... ...... ...... ......
Yeli was supported by Yinguang and staggered away from the banquet.
After only going down a dozen steps, Yeli was unstable and planted forward, Yinguang didn't pay attention for a while, and both of them fell on the steps.
Yeli wanted to get up, but his hands and feet couldn't find the north and south, and the wine jar had long been thrown away, so he simply lay on the ground and couldn't afford it, spread his hands and feet to his heart's content, and laughed and said, "Happy! happy...... It's so exciting!"
"Brother, it seems that you are really drunk, brother help you back to your room to rest. Yinguang had already climbed up and grabbed Yeli's arm.
"I'm not going anywhere tonight, I'm just going to sleep here......! It's so exciting!" Yeli continued to shout.
"Brother, get up...... Hurry up! This is going to be seen, what kind of system is it?" Yinguang tried to pull the night away.
"What kind of system?" Ye Li suddenly thought thoughtfully, looked at the blurred stars in the sky, and muttered, "I knew that there was today, why did I sneak down the mountain in the first place." ”
"What?, brother, did you come down the mountain secretly?" Yinguang was very surprised.
"Brother, I came down the mountain secretly...... Elder brother...... I shouldn't have sneaked down the mountain! You know...... I regret it so much now...... I really regret it!" The night left the wine, and gradually became incoherent, and the more he spoke, the more sad he became.
"Since you know that you regret it, you should go back to the mountain as soon as possible, so as not to worry about the master, and after my brother explains the government affairs here, he will also go back to the mountain. Yinguang said.
Yinguang's words, Ye Li didn't hear a word in his ears, he stared at Yinguang in a daze and said, "Brother...... DID YOU KNOW...... Why am I ......? Why do you regret going down the mountain?"
"How does my brother know?" Yinguang said gently.
"Because my heart hurts so much now! brother...... My heart really hurts. As he spoke, Yeli suddenly beat his chest and pulled his hair, and began to cry.
"Oh...... My brother knows, my brother knows...... Wake up with a good night's sleep. Yinguang only talked about wine, so he hugged Yeli in his arms, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted.
"How can it be all right...... We met at the mountain temple...... Ride an ox cart together to Tati Lake...... We watched the peach blossoms of Tati Lake together, experienced life and death together under the city of Stu, and we exchanged gifts together, mine was a fish intestine sword, and hers was an amber pendant...... We swear never to be separated...... Xi'er also said that she would wait for me to give her a golden platform......! But my father took away my Xi'er......" Yeli remembered the time when he met and fell in love with Princess Zixi, and he remembered it vividly, like a few family treasures, and his love was deep, and he resented his father very much.
When Yinguang heard this, he was stunned: it turned out that Mrs. Xi, who was newly sealed by his father, was actually the person loved by his brother, so it was no wonder that he was crazy between the wine and feast.
He was worried that Yeli would continue to talk nonsense, and that it would be heard and spread out, which would tarnish his father's arrogant majesty, so he advised: "It is expected that my father does not know the truth, but now that the matter is complete, my brother should not be sad." There are so many good women in the world, and my brother will find you a better one when the time comes. ”
"I don't want any good woman in the world, I don't want it! I just want Xi'er!" Yeli shouted like a madman.
