The rooster is about to dawn. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoToday is the wedding day of Prince Xiao Qingran and Princess Yu Zimo of Xinguo. The palace of the king of Shang is draped in red and gold, the bells and drums are ringing, and everyone is dressed up.
The hour has come.
Princess Yu Zimo of Xinguo wore a red dress, wore a golden hairpin, and her temples were curly, and she walked out. The people waiting outside the door were stunned when they saw the princess dressed up. What Pianhong, delicate flowers, alluring country, and alluring city are not enough to describe the beauty of the princess.
The ceremonial officer of the Shang Kingdom came over and reported to the princess that the Shang sacrifice had chosen the time, and the king and the others were already waiting for the princess in the main hall.
Yu Zimo held his head high. The ceremonial officer led the way in front, and Qing Yao and the others accompanied the princess to the main hall.
Yu Zimo walked slowly, the swaying wedding dress, the slender posture, beautiful and solemn. She was surrounded by guards and maids and walked into the Shang Kingdom Hall.
When the king of the palace and everyone saw Yu Zimo coming in, they couldn't help but lose their minds for a moment, and they were all shocked by the beauty of Princess Xinguo. I have long heard that the princess of Xin is the first beauty of Xin country, beautiful and unparalleled, and now when I see it, she is like a celestial, not to mention Xin country, I am afraid that it is difficult to find a more beautiful woman than her in the seven countries.
In the surprised eyes of everyone, Princess Yu Zimo had already walked to the center of the main hall, and she gave a gift to the king of Shang in accordance with the rules of the Shang Kingdom. The king of Shang smiled and nodded, it was a blessing for him to be able to marry such a princess of Xinguo.
At this time, Xiao Qingran was wearing a new red robe, standing in the center of the crowd, with a tall figure, a heroic posture, and deep eyes. He was also stunned the moment he saw Yu Zimo. Every time he saw Princess Xinguo, her appearance was very different, and this time was the most shocking.
It is really a talented woman, and the people who watch the ceremony congratulate the king. The wedding was held in an orderly manner under the auspices of the high priest. Yu Zimo and Xiao Qingran's expressions were very serious. Everyone else was smiling on their faces, but they had their own tastes in their hearts.
To say that among the people present, the most uncomfortable in his heart was Xiao Changyu. From the moment Yu Zimo entered the main hall, his gaze never left Yu Zimo, the princess of Xinguo, his gaze was sometimes shining, sometimes gloomy.
After the ceremony was completed, the maid accompanied Yu Zimo to the new mansion, and Xiao Qingran and the others stayed. The wedding banquet began, Xiao Changyu sat next to his eldest brother Xiao Bogong, drinking a cup of stuffy wine.
"What are you doing?" Bo Gong glanced at Chang Yu.
"I'm angry. Chang Yu took a sip of wine and said with a flushed face, "That princess of Xinguo should obviously be your eldest brother, but now it is actually cheaper Xiao Qingran." …… Wait, I'll help you sooner or later and force this princess back. Chang Yu gritted his teeth and said fiercely.
Bo Gong's eyes trembled in the firelight, he slowly took a sip of wine, and said in a voice that others were not aware of: "I have told you more than once that people who do great things must be calm, and no matter what they think in their hearts, they can't show it on their faces. ”
"However, such a beautiful princess, give Xiao Qingran ?......" Chang Yu was unwilling.
Xiao Bogong didn't speak, still drinking and eating unhurriedly. He looked at the king and Xiao Qingran with the rest of his eyes, his eyes became deeper and deeper, although this wedding allowed Xiao Qingran to get the power of the princess of Xin and Xin Guo, but one day, these will belong to him again, especially this princess of Xin - it will definitely become his.
……
When the full moon is in the sky, the banquet is dispersed at the end of the song. The people who attended the banquet left one after another. Xiao Qingran waited until all the people at the banquet had left, and then took heavy steps and walked into his new mansion and his new house.
Yu Zimo was already sitting in the room. He stood in the doorway, a little embarrassed.
"Come in. Yu Zimo saw Xiao Qingran standing stiffly at the door, and said lightly.
Xiao Qingran didn't move, he looked down at the red clothes on his body that matched Yu Zimo, and looked uncomfortable.
"The way you look now, you don't look like you. Yu Zimo said.
Thinking of the scene where he met Yu Zimo before, it really didn't match the current scene.
"Come in, close the door. Yu Zimo said in a commanding tone.
Qingran shook his head, took two awkward steps forward, put his hand to the door, and paused for a moment before closing the door behind him.
"Are you going to stand here all the time?" said Yu Zimo to Xiao Qingran, who was at a loss.
"No, I-I'm just-" Qingran said a little unpleasantly.
"I'm not used to-" Yu Zimo said for him.
Qingran walked to the bedside far away from Yu Zimo. "I'm not used to it. You think it's weird, right?"
"What's strange, it was your Shang Kingdom who proposed to our Xin Kingdom. ”
"yes. "He was the biological son of the Shang king, and of course Xin Guo took this into account. But himself.
"But I didn't expect you to listen to your father and agree to this marriage. Yu Zimo grew up in the palace since he was a child, and he was used to seeing this kind of political marriage, and he also knew that he would eventually enter this kind of political marriage. This is her responsibility as the princess of Xinguo. But it's a little strange that this Xiao Qingran would be so obedient.
"I have my reasons. Qingran turned his face away and said stiffly.
"Oh?" Yu Zimo stood up, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and stared at Xiao Qingran, who was ashamed and stiff with apricot eyes, "Let me guess what the reason is." She said.
Yu Zimo's expression seemed to be very serious, but Xiao Qingran didn't care.
How could she know. Qingran looked at the princess of Xinguo, who was well-dressed and bright-eyed. He had heard about the princess's background and temper. She lost her mother since she was a child, was pampered by her father and brother since she was a child, arrogant and willful, and her temper was used to lawlessness. He also saw her mysterious and unpredictable behavior. How could such a princess guess that he was a vulgar person in the mountains, but he was doing useless work. ……
"Your mother. Yu Zimo's eyes were no longer searching, he smiled slightly, and said affirmatively.
Xiao Qingran was stunned. She was right. The incredulity on his face could not be concealed.
"I was right. Yu Zimo said proudly, "If you don't speak, you will acquiesce." ”
Qingran agreed to the king of Shang and married the princess of Xinguo, indeed out of consideration for his mother's safety. Mother is in the deep palace, and her only reliance is herself. He has no intention of being a prince or fighting for a throne. However, he needs to have the strength to protect his mother and the princess of the Xin Kingdom. Isn't he too selfish? Qingran felt a little sorry for this princess.
"Why would you say yes. Xiao Qingran asked Yu Zimo rhetorically. Whether in Shang or Xin, he was very incompetent, especially at the border of Shang, and he had to rely on her to save him. Knowing that she was a mediocre person, why would this beautiful and proud princess agree? Unexpectedly, she had the same doubts as her.
Yu Zimo's lips moved slightly, the corners of her mouth smiled, she blinked, and said, "Guess?" Yu Zimo walked to the side of the bed and sat opposite Qingran. A pair of beautiful eyes flashed.
