On the day of the wedding, the man goes to the woman's house to marry the bride in the morning, and the wedding ceremony is held at dusk. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yao Xitong and Xiao Baoer were married by the Empress Dowager, and the etiquette in the palace was more cumbersome than that of the people. Before dawn, Yao Xitong was waited by the eunuch and dressed neatly, and met the Son of Heaven before the court meeting. With the blessing of the Son of Heaven, he waited at the gate of the palace, waiting for the bride's wedding procession. After waiting for two hours, the water and rice had never touched his teeth, and the moment he saw the procession, he almost burst into tears, he was hungry! I saw the officials of the Ministry of Rites walking at the front of the line with the will of the little emperor in hand, and this was the so-called Son of Heaven sending relatives.

The group returned to the post house, where there were more cumbersome worship ceremonies.

The two of them were tossed around like puppets, and they finally survived until dusk, and when the eunuch sang that the newcomer entered the cave room, Yao Xitong felt a little impatient. A row of boys and boys in front of him held dragon and phoenix candles to guide the way, and Yao Xitong held a colorful ball ribbon to lead Xiao Baoer into the cave room. According to the rules, this section of Ruth had to walk on a sack. There are five sacks, walk through one, and the bride is handed over to the front to spread in the road, which means "passing on the ancestry" and "meeting the five generations".

The newlyweds enter the cave room, and are led by the bride to sit side by side, and then a woman with good fortune and longevity knocks the bride's head slightly with a weighing rod, and then the groom picks off the "red hijab" to indicate "satisfactory".

Yao Xitong took the weighing rod and weighed it slightly, the things in the palace were really exquisite. The polished light of this brass rod is recognizable, and the scales on the scale rod are all delicately carved "Xi" characters. He picked off his hijab according to the rules, and saw Xiao Bao'er's eyes drooping and his cheeks crimson, which couldn't help but give him the illusion that he wanted to spend his life with Xiao Bao'er! He shook his head vigorously, but now he put on powder to cover his dark green eye sockets, wouldn't it be fatal to live with this kind of unruly woman for a lifetime!

The dazzling candlelight made Xiao Bao'er subconsciously close her eyes, and she regretted that rhino incense failed to make her dream of the wedding with Xuan Ze. In the dream of rhino incense, they were happily married, and she borrowed troops for Xuanze to return to Northern Liao after marriage. The smoke rises, the troubled times come, the two get together less and leave more, one battle after another is their life, and there is also red in the dream, dazzling scarlet, which is the color of flesh and blood!

The Quanfu woman brought a soup ball to Xiao Bao'er's mouth, and the latter swallowed the soup ball in one gulp, and insisted on holding back the pleasing words that the Quanfu woman wanted to say, "whether you are born or not". Seeing that the Quanfu woman took out another soup ball and planned to feed her, Xiao Bao'er waved her hand and motioned for the people in the house to leave.

Yao Xitong watched a bowl of cooked food being taken away, and became more and more hungry!

Xiao Bao'er saw Yao Xitong wearing red, and when she saw it again today, she was stunned for a moment for this person's indisputable appearance. She said sincerely, "You are beautiful, more beautiful than the prettiest maid by my side." ”

Yao Xitong would rather she not say anything, "Princess, the ceremonial official wants Xitong to go out to welcome guests and drink after changing clothes, I don't know ...... princess."

"You can do whatever they arrange, and I don't understand the rules of the Central Plains. You take this," Xiao Bao'er took out a pack of snacks from her sleeve pocket, "Eat some first, the food in the palace is already cold, and you can't eat anything when you go out." ”

Yao Xitong took the snack and ate it, and after a busy day, he finally had a stutter, "Thank you, princess!"

"Su Su prepared, I ate half of it in the sedan chair, these are leftovers, you can like it. Yao Xitong really wanted to cover her ears and not listen to Xiao Bao'er, "Princess, Xitong has gone out to welcome guests!"

"Drink less, and I will enter the palace tomorrow morning. Hearing Xiao Bao'er say this, Yao Xitong knew that there was nothing to do with the bride at the wedding banquet, and the rest belonged to the groom, whether it was eating and drinking and entertaining guests or spending candles in the cave room. As soon as he went out, Uncle He followed him dog-legged and asked, "Childe, do you want a cave room tonight?"

"What kind of person do you think I am?"

"Childe, you don't have a cave room?"

"Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

The two sentences were almost identical, and Uncle He was dizzy when he heard it, "Childe, the old slave doesn't understand!"

"If you want me to take the initiative, that's impossible. If the princess takes the initiative, I can reluctantly sacrifice it. ”

There were not many visitors, dozens of new science and technology scholars plus the officials of the Ministry of Rites who were in charge of the wedding banquet, and everyone went through the motions to complete this marriage. The banquet guests' royal meals looked sumptuous and delicious, and as Xiao Bao'er said, the things had already been cold on the way to the post house, and it was really hard to eat!

On the willow tops of the moon, the music faded away, the officials and internal supervisors returned to the palace one after another, and the lively wedding banquet was instantly full of red lanterns and a little heat.

Yao Xitong walked towards the cave room with heavy steps, for fear that Xiao Bao'er would change his taste, and suddenly felt that he looked more pleasing to the eye than Qingshanjun, although this was a fact.

The arm-thick dragon and phoenix candles were only lit for a short time, one was written with gold dust and Di Ronghua, and the other was also written with gold dust and the branches dependent. The room was illuminated by flickering candles. The room is arranged according to Xiao Bao'er's bedroom, with a red sandalwood carved step bed, an ice silk hank tent, and four golden incense balls exuding a sweet fragrance.

Xiao Baoer had just washed up and was sitting by the lamp drinking.

It is said that the upstairs looks at the mountains, the city looks at the snow, the lights see the flowers, and the moon looks at the beauties. At this moment, Yao Xitong felt that he could also see beauties in front of the lamp, and Xiao Bao'er's side face sitting and drinking was so beautiful that he was a little moved.

"Why are you looking at me like this, we won't cave the house. ”

"The princess is too worried, if she hadn't been selected as a colt, Xitong would definitely have to return to her hometown to marry the person she likes after high school. Hearing that Yao Xitong already had a favorite woman, Xiao Baoer asked, "You haven't shown your heart to her yet, have you?"

"How does the princess know?"

"I also knew she would reject you. ”

"Why?"

"I'm not going to marry a leather jacket anyway. Yao Xitong looked at Xiao Bao'er blankly, "Leather jacket?"

"You say that a beautiful woman is a fox, then a male fox must become a man. The sand fox on the grassland is very smart, my father once caught a gray-white sand fox and gave it to me to domesticate, but I killed it, and asked my mother to make me a short jacket with fur. ”

Xiao Bao'er began to laugh after speaking, Yao Xitong fully understood her words, and sighed secretly, what is this?

"Princess ......"

"Don't ...... Don't talk, a leather jacket that moves, haha...... Ha ha...... It's funny......"

Xiao Baoer smiled like this and got into the brocade quilt. Yao Xitong was waiting for her to stop laughing in the house, and finally lost her voice, and when she got closer, Xiao Baoer actually fell asleep, completely ignoring his existence, and forgetting that tonight was the night of candles in the cave room.

The candlelight flickered, and the cave room, which should have been full of charming style, only heard Xiao Bao'er's rhythmic snort. Yao Xitong sat by the window and drank a few glasses, and said in his heart: The palace jade brew is really good, and I knew that I should persuade the barbarian girl to drink less. When he undressed and lay down, he looked sideways at Xiao Bao'er, the fourteen-year-old girl had not yet grown, and her round face made her look a little delicate. The two have been together for a long time, and they have to let Xiao Baoer know as soon as possible that he is not a decent gentleman.

Xiao Bao'er slept until she woke up in the middle of the night, and she kicked Yao Xitong a few times until the latter opened her eyes. "How do you sleep here?"

"Princess, there's only one bed here, where can you sleep if you don't sleep here?"

"Yes, then you can sleep. ”

It's so easy to talk, why isn't there any reserve at all? Yao Xitong was still slandering, Xiao Bao'er then asked, "You will change your life, right?"

"Princess, that's not what you said...... Regarding the change of life, Yao Xitong already had a draft, and he opened his mouth to talk to Xiao Bao'er about the time of half a cup of tea. The two were very close, and before they finished speaking, Xiao Bao'er on the side was already drowsy, "Princess, do you still want to listen?"

"Speaking of human words, will you change your life?"

"Yes, yes, but ......" Xiao Bao'er interrupted him and asked, "How long?"

"Princess, changing your life is the same as practicing martial arts, and your qualifications determine time. If you can do everything I say, I'm sure you'll see results soon. ”

Xiao Bao'er stared at Yao Xitong carefully for a while, "I believe you!" After that, she turned around and hugged the quilt to sleep, still ignoring Yao Xitong's existence. The latter couldn't say what it would feel like at such a time, and looked up at the carved bed in a daze. The moment the sleepiness came, he gently closed his eyes, and the big red that disappeared under his eyes reminded him that this was the night of candles in the cave room, but it was a pity that Lang was ruthless, and the concubine had no intention, a good newlywed.

Early the next morning, the two went to the New Year's Hall to greet the Son of Heaven. The young Son of Heaven needed to add a few cushions to the wide dragon chair to let the courtiers kneeling under the nine-story jade steps see, and he used his immature voice to make the two "flat", and Princess Huanting, who was standing beside him, read the Empress Dowager's message to the two.

The oracle said that the Empress Dowager was not in good health, and the two did not need to go to Shouning Palace to ask for peace. Because Xiao Baoer will leave the palace with her husband, the Queen Mother gave her a set of cloth clothes and hairpins, hoping that she can guard against arrogance and rashness, remember that husband and wife are one, and assist her husband to become a generation of famous ministers.

Xiao Huiting's message corroborated what the crow said yesterday, a palace change has quietly begun and ended, but I don't know how long Princess Huanting can hide this matter. After the festival, the ancestors were worshipped, and the vassal states brought the New Year's tribute to the capital, and the empress dowager's stand-in could cope with this kind of scene? Princess Huanting had the ability to hide from the eyes of those lords? The next development of the matter Yao Xitong was uncontrollable, and the only thing he could do was to leave the capital with Xiao Bao'er.

In the prayer hall, the Son of Heaven said a word of admonition to Yao Xitong, who was about to take office, and gave him a sword. This sword is not a Shang Fang sword, and it does not have the privilege of cutting first and then playing, this is just a death-free talisman given to Yao Xitong by the Son of Heaven. Chen Di was a vassal state of Bactria and the imperial court had the right to appoint and dismiss Chen Di's officials. However, with the decline of the national strength of Great Xia, the imperial court's power to appoint and dismiss officials in Chen Di was only a formality, but any official who was dissatisfied with Chen either died in an accident or took the initiative to resign from the imperial court. In addition to Chendi, several other vassal states were also like this.

The Son of Heaven is young, but he is not confused, and he knows very well what Xiao Baoer means to the imperial court. Considering the princess's temperament of liking trouble, Yao Xitong had to be given this sword. Once Xiao Bao'er gets into trouble, unless Lord Chen intends to rebel, seeing the sword like the Son of Heaven coming in person, the words of the sword-wielder are equivalent to the words of the Son of Heaven. These privileges were given to Yao Xitong, but it proved that Princess Bao'er was still under the protection of the imperial power, and the alliance between Great Xia and Northern Liao remained unchanged.
