Chapter 14: The Day of the Wedding

The first half of the makeup

In the thirty-sixth year of Taihe, on the eighth day of the fifth lunar month, it is advisable to marry. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

Just after the end of the day, it was dark.

The county capital station, the lights are swaying.

Mrs. Quanfu sat south and faced north to open Cai Cai's face, the colorful threads flicked on her face, and Mrs. smiled and read "Open Face Song". Hearing that he gave birth to a noble son, gave birth to a delicate man, gave birth to a unicorn or something, Qi Caicai's face turned red again and again.

The palm clothes sent by the palace depict the makeup of Huatian.

Qi Caicai looked at the woman in the bronze mirror with eyebrows like Yuandai, red lips and bright teeth, and peach cheeks and apricot face, and felt strange.

The black hair pouring down was grated by the palm clothes, and the jade fingers shuttled between a green silk bun, and took the royal gold inlaid treasure held by the palm ornament and the lotus crown for Cai Cai to wear, and the crown was decorated with a gold five-flower head bridge phoenix hairpin on both sides.

"Mrs. Qi, you can get up and put on your clothes. ”

Suddenly, the silk yarn-dyed golden phoenix embroidered clothes are added, and the wide sleeves are large.

Qingyuan vermilion belt girdles, Yingying grasps,

The black hair and phoenix crown are more beautiful than flowers.

"Hello, girl, so beautiful~" The more beautiful the beauty is seen under the lamp, the more beautiful it becomes, it seems to be obsessed.

Jin Zhu and Tian'er also looked at their girls with admiration, but Hai'er stayed in the dark, and her face was not real.

Today, Qi Sheng's family also came, Sheng'er's mother felt ugly and only stood in the corner and watched, sincerely blessing, but Meng Meng Xiaoni's newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, and she didn't care about her mother's obstruction, she kept jumping left and right. Mengmeng thinks that the sisters from the palace are so beautiful, but she thinks that no one in the world can be more beautiful than Sister Caicai, and her little head is tilted to look here and there, tangled.

But at this time, Cai Cai finished dressing up and stood there, Meng Meng Xiaoni's eyes widened, and her little mouth opened wide, "Wow~ Sister is like the fairy that Taoist grandpa said, Meng Meng is going to become like my sister~"

The first time that everyone made Qi Caicai ashamed, they endured the urge to flirt back because of the palm clothes and palm ornaments in the palace.

However, Mrs. Quanfu also echoed and said: "How unbelievable it is for Mrs. Qi to grow up again~"

The atmosphere in the room warmed up between you and me, and Qi Caicai also showed a smile on his face.

Halfway through the hour, Qi Caicai heard the sound of gongs and drums and suona, and knew that the welcoming team had arrived, so he was bored, and his palm clothes hung down the red hijab, covering Caicai's vision of looking out of the window.

Because the woman's parents are not here, a lot of etiquette was saved to welcome the relatives, and soon the prince came to the hall to "lay the geese", and then went to the north to pass the first ceremony.

At this time, Qi Caicai was helped from the room to the east steps, and Mrs. Quanfu warned Caicai's father: "Men are valued by strength, and women are beautiful by weakness, whether it is right or wrong, marry and obey their husbands." One is rigid and one is soft, so as to be able to help each other and always maintain the righteousness of husband and wife. Then Cai Cai and the prince Chen walked to the gate, Cai Cai boarded the sedan chair, the prince rode a high-headed horse, suona gongs and drums sounded in unison, one hundred and twelve dowry in the back, around the green dragon, white tiger, Vermilion Bird and Xuanwu four gates to the East Palace.

A water-red sedan chair in the Taifu Mansion also set off, followed by one hundred and six dowries, and arrived at the East Palace later than the crown prince's concubine.

The people of the county capital are already well-informed, but it is unheard of for the concubines to carry more than 100 dowries. But discerning people know that Shuo Fang's appeasement is so generous to his daughter, and the dowry of the people has already started from Shuo Fang when they don't know that there is a side concubine, and this Taifu Mansion has a side concubine dowry that is close to the main concubine.

There are always few smart people in the world, for example, now Jiang Luxian is entertained by the heavy dowry, until he later found that more than 100 people are mostly useless large pieces, although the clothes are fine, but they are all outdated patterns, and the gold and silver that are really needed are pitiful.

This is all a later story, and the ceremony of the concubines entering the East Palace one after another began.

The whole ceremony of the wedding is already cumbersome and detailed, and the saint is still at the scene, and the whole process is not slack. Cai Cai, who had never eaten, was so hungry that she was dizzy from hunger in the sedan chair with a red Luo Yin mattress and a soft screen and curtain, and if it wasn't for the maid to support her when she worshipped, she was afraid that she would have to look foreign after kneeling in heaven and earth and her parents were unable to get up.

Fortunately, although he was tired and hungry, he survived smoothly because of the maid's support and reminder, and when he was sent to Yan'an Palace, Qi Caicai almost cried with joy, but at this moment, the hijab was lifted, and the girl's misty eyes were facing the man's slightly narrow eyes.

Looking at the hateful half of the bronze mask under the red candle, Qi Caicai immediately retracted his expression, don't look away, the prince saw Caicai's dislike, lowered his eyes slightly, and cast a shadow on his eyelashes.

Because the prince has lived in a simple house for many years and is indifferent to communication, after the husband and wife have drunk the wine, there are few people who have the courage to come to the cave room, but the few people who come are bold, all kinds of jokes and teasing the prince, and no matter how the carbon-colored and sharp-eyed prince protests silently, he still talks about the prince's childhood troubles, which makes Qi Caicai can't help laughing.

The few people who came were Xiao Weiyu, the uncle of the crown prince, and the other two of the 'Four Talents of the Capital', the eldest princess Yuan Ke came in order to avoid suspicion and inconvenience, but these three people were full of meat words, quoting scriptures and talking eloquently. The prince was amused by a few people, and Cai Cai didn't want to deal with them, but the more they talked, the more shameless he became, he coughed a few times, and said that he would go to the front to help greet the guests if he had made enough trouble, and he dragged a few people out together and shut them out.

Xiao Weiyu shouted unhappily outside the door: "Xianyun, is it appropriate for you to treat your uncle like this? The elders are all going over to entertain, what are you still doing in the boudoir!"

The other two coaxed on the side: "'It is advisable to drink alcohol and grow old with your son.'" Qin Se is in the palace, and it is good to be quiet. "You are an uncle who has not yet married a wife, you know what kind of little couple is as sweet as lacquer~"

The prince ignored the nonsense outside the door, stuffed a red paper bag in Qi Caicai's hand, and instructed a little crampedly:

"Don't be restrained, eat the snacks in this bag when you're hungry, and let your maid help you unload it first if the phoenix crown on your head feels heavy, and I will come back as soon as possible." ”

I was a little moved by this care, but I thought that there had been another woman in the whole wedding, and now the woman in the Yuqi Palace was also waiting for the prince's heart, and it was a burst of relief, and the thoughts of gratitude immediately dissipated.

Suddenly, a desire to tease the prince was born, and Qi Caicai replied in a coquettish voice:

"Then I want to take a nap, please let His Highness tell you that there is no need to come and serve, I will wait for you to come back alone. ”

The prince knew that Cai Cai had the idea of a ghost again, but he felt that she was very smart at this time, and she went to the main hall to receive guests after allowing the word "good".

"Since you can accommodate two people in one heart, you are only worthy of half of my makeup. Qi Caicai grunted and wiped off half of his makeup with a silk handkerchief dipped in tea, removed the phoenix crown, put down half of his hair to block half of his makeup, and looked at his nondescript self in the mirror, Qi Caicai giggled.

Section 2 is yes and no

When the main hall was finished, when the two big maids, Chu'er and Jinzhu, entered the house to wait for Cai Cai to change their clothes, they saw that the crown princess, who was originally a bright and beautiful woman, was like a pink skeleton at this time. The two didn't know what the master was going to make trouble about, and they were stunned on the spot, but there was a eunuch who reported that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was back, and the two were so anxious that they wanted to cry and wanted to say something, but Qi Caicai had already taken them out.

Qi Caicai pretended to be calm and took off his wedding clothes and sat on the four-pillar bed of the phoenix wearing peony, thinking that he was wearing a thin single coat, and he had to be in the same room with the man, sharing the same bed, removing half of the pink and red dripping blood, and his fingers were uneasy under the sleeves to pull the quilt.

Anticipation and trepidation.

When he pushed open the door, the prince saw Cai Cai, who had taken off his wedding clothes, was only wearing a plain moon-colored shirt, half of his face was red lips and half of his face was covered by green silk, sitting quietly on the red bed, the red shark silk yarn was ethereal, the candlelight was flickering, and he looked like a ghost in the dim and dark.

……

All are silent,

The prince knew at a glance that Cai Cai was mocking him for winking, in order to express his dislike for himself?

Thinking of the hot and cold world in which the Manchu Dynasty's attitude towards the East Palace changed sharply after the prince glanced at him, the prince narrowed his eyes slightly, is she as superficial as the world? Thinking of this, the prince turned and firmly denied Cai Cai's criticism, she is not such a vulgar person, how can a woman who is gentle and kind to the people at the bottom be as unbearable as the jackals, tigers and leopards in the court! I must still be annoyed by the side concubine who suddenly appeared, and tomorrow I will find an opportunity to explain it well.

But no matter how the prince comforted himself, in the end he was still sad that his obsession was just unrequited love, and he was surprised to find that he and Cai Cai had two unpleasant encounters, but they actually understood it at all.

Faced with the obvious hatred, the prince was at a loss.

Consciously taking into account Cai Cai's feelings, the prince did not say anything, closed the door and left to the side hall to rest. The Xuan Xuan wedding dress was empty in the night, revealing coldness.

The bandit stone hiding behind the elm leaf plum tree outside the hall and the coerced Gu Xia were extremely obscene and squatting on the ground to peep, who wanted the drunken and slightly drunk prince to go in and come out.

Bandit Shi squeezed his eyebrows and dragged Gu Xia, at this time, how could Gu Xia continue to mess around, and after throwing off this weak literati, he rushed to the prince, he really couldn't bear to look at the back of his master Lingding, as if he had returned to the time of Empress Xiao's funeral, the prince's thin body walked in front of the coffin with the tablet......

After Gu Xia passed, the hiding place of the bandit stone had been exposed, and several of the stunned princess's maids greeted him with a smile, and also chased after the prince.

Today is the prince's sympathy for the princess's young age, so he left? Although the prince has no experience in love, he has read poetry, essays, and ancient books, and has read a lot of books, and has a deep theoretical foundation, and he faintly noticed that the little two seemed to be awkward, and sighed that the prince did not understand the mind of the little daughter.

Looking back at the elm leaves and plums in the garden, Bandit Shi sighed again, it seems that it is not that the prince is incomprehensible, but that the princess does not understand the feelings of men, right?

Qi Caicai thought about thousands of endings, but he didn't guess that the prince would turn around and leave without saying a word, in the end, it was his daughter's house, and he couldn't help but speculate at this time: He was not angry, why did he leave. Angry, right? So you ran to find the side concubine? Yes, definitely, yes!

At this time, Qi Caicai was in a very annoyed and depressed mood, and dealing with the prince was like trying his best to punch the cotton, yes, he is the master of the East Palace, without himself, Jiang Lu is idle, Wang Ou is busy, Li Niaofei is flying, how can he care about himself?

So he put his head under the quilt, frowned, pouted, and was extremely displeased.

Chu'er and Jin Zhu were waiting outside the door, and when they saw the prince hurriedly go out and left, they knew that their master had really made trouble, and they were frightened by Gu Xia's father-in-law and Lord Bandit Shi who jumped out of the courtyard, and after returning to their senses, they pushed the door into the house, and saw the quilt bulging high into a bag,

"Crown princess, are the slaves waiting for you to wash?" Jin Zhu was also mentioned by the Yunshang Palace in Shuofang, and there was no omission in speech and etiquette at this time.

Chu'er was anxious to see if Cai Cai was wronged, pulled the quilt, and said with a little crying:

"Girl, what's wrong with you, come out and let the slave see if you're okay, the slave is worried about you......"

Cai Cai had no choice but to lift the corner of the quilt to reveal her head, Chu'er and Jin Zhu wanted to laugh a little out of place, because they could see that Cai Cai was actually lying on the bed with her ass pouting, plus how she looked like an angry little daughter-in-law with her mouth and frowning, not like it, it was.

"You go out, I'm tired, I'm going to stay by myself. Qi Caicai looked at the two maids holding back a smile and drove people away angrily.

Jin Zhu adjusted quickly and replied calmly: "Crown Princess, you haven't removed your makeup and grate your hair." ”

Until Qi Caicai reluctantly got up to freshen up, Jin Zhu tried to persuade tactfully several times, but he didn't know where to start, accusing the master of not being stubborn and scaring the prince on the wedding night? Jin Zhu rejected, saying so, I was afraid that it would backfire. Glancing at Chu'er next to her, who was holding a handkerchief to wipe her master's face, Jin Zhu suddenly felt that there were some things that she couldn't say, but Chu'er could, she started and asked again, so she winked at Chu'er.

When Chu'er was washing the veil, she saw Jin Zhu looking at her and blinking at her and using her mouth to Nunu Master, she instantly understood Jin Zhu's intentions, and lowered her head and asked:

"Girl, are you hungry? I told the kitchen to keep snacks and porridge earlier, do you want to bring them?"

Jin Zhu's breath was almost uneven, but if the master had a good meal, he would have time to figure out how to speak, so he said: "Princess, you haven't eaten for a day, let Tian'er heat up the porridge on a small stove, how much can you eat?"

Speaking of eating, Qi Caicai clenched the red paper in her sleeve, she had already eaten the dim sum inside, each piece was her favorite taste, and she was still unsatisfied, but after the prince left, she suddenly lost her appetite.

"No need, I want to rest, you guys go out. ”

Jin Zhu and Chu'er saw that their master was indeed tired, and they were tired of tossing today, so they both withdrew after extinguishing the candle.

As soon as he went out, Jin Zhu stretched out his finger on Chu'er's head a little, and said angrily:

"You, you, when will you be able to grow a few more eyes. The master is worried about the prince at first glance, and we should just persuade it, otherwise Ming'er will not give the prince face according to the master's character. ”

"You just winked at me to ask the girl about her and the prince? Chu'er suddenly realized, slapped her head, said that the wind is rain, and turned to go into the house to ask.

Jin Zhu hurriedly stopped, "My good Chu'er, the master is resting, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to ask again." Tomorrow, when we are waiting for the wash, you and I will talk about it together, now let's go back to the room to rest, just call Tian'er to guard. ”

The whispering voice of the two people outside the door Qi Caicai also listened to it because of her martial arts skills, and the only feeling was that the defeat of the battle with the prince made her maids pity her, and it was only the first day, and her prestige would definitely be gone in the long run. Qi Caicai tugged at the quilt, forced the condemnation of his conscience, and decided to fight again tomorrow and move back to face!

As for the voice in my heart that said that you are looking for trouble today, it is already very sympathetic for people not to punish you. Qi Caicai shook her head, she didn't listen, she didn't listen! Obviously, it was the prince who ruined his life and caused him to leave his hometown, and at the same time he married a side concubine and should take her own first, so she Qi Caicai resisted slightly, and felt very guilty, she was the villain who would repay her.

Although he kept hinting that he was not wrong, Qi Caicai still couldn't sleep.
