Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Day of the Wedding

The ninth day of the fourth month is the auspicious day of the zodiac established by the Qin Tianjian. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info is full of the sun, and the meaning of perfection is that it is appropriate for all things that are perfect, including marriage. It is said that on this day, the six gods of Qinglong, Tiande, Yutang, Siming, Mingtang, and Jinkui are located, and they can protect the auspiciousness of Pepsi and all the best.

"Miss, Miss, it's time to get up."

Moyu woke up in a daze, covered with a thin blanket, the room was still holding the lamp, it was still dark outside the window, there was no table or wine glass on the couch, and there was no one who drank with her in the past.

The jade soup was ready, and Moyu got up, bathed, and washed. Then she sat down and let a bunch of mothers-in-law pound on her head.

The hair was coiled around and around, the wig was added layer after layer, Zhu Hai inserted one after another, the clothes were worn layer after layer, the socks were put on one pair after another, and finally the shoes were put on, and it was done. Mo Yu wondered if she would cover her prickly heat when she looked like this.

First come to the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors, then go to the hall to say goodbye to your parents, and then, out of the house, on the palace to pick up the relatives. At this time, it was just dawn.

The sound of firecrackers is in my ears, and all eyes are red. Marrying a daughter is not to marry a daughter-in-law, naturally there is no banquet, but the family sends her to the door, watches her leave, and finally when she turns around, she pours a basin of cold water on the ground, meaning the daughter who marries out.

Before getting into the car, Mo Yu turned to look at the gate of Ji Mansion, it seemed that it was the first time she looked at the gate of her house so seriously, and her eyes fell on the old lady in front of everyone. This woman, who has been in the Ji family for most of her life, has a wrinkled face and white hair, but her eyes that seem to be able to see everything are still sharp, and she has a Jinteng staff in her hand, standing in the crowd of juniors, she is actually the most dazzling person.

Mo Yu walked up to the old lady with a slight pleading in her tone. "Old lady, can Moyu ask you one last thing?" Perhaps only the old lady would do it for her.

The old lady said in a deep voice: "After entering the palace, all you can ask for is yourself, and if you are smart, you can ask for your husband." ”

"In this matter, maybe only the old lady in the world will help Moyu."

"I'm a man who has one foot in the coffin, how can I help you? Let's talk about it! ”

"Moyu knows that he is going, and he is afraid that he will never leave the palace again. If one day, Moyu returns, I hope that the old lady can bury Moyu's body on Wuyan Mountain, so that Moyu's soul can return to her former home. ”

The old lady looked at the slowly rising sun in the sky, and said faintly: "Today is your big day, you shouldn't say this." But since this is the only thing you ask me for, I answer you. ”

Moyu knelt on his knees, put his hands on his chest, bowed three times, and made a big bow. "Moyu has no regrets in this life."

"Good boy, go ahead!"

The old lady looked at the fading frame, the red clothes, and the festive drums, just like when she was first married. But at that time, she would only cry, and she would not be like this granddaughter, who was so resolute, helpless, and desperate. She is old, but she is not blind, this granddaughter is definitely the best person in this Ji Mansion, she is smarter than the Yuan family and even Ji Gangyang. She knew what she was going back to the house for, she knew what she was entering the palace for, she knew the Ji family's plan, she knew that she would die, but she was helpless and willing to choose this path.

Everyone in the Ji family, including herself, finally misjudged her.

Royal weddings are different from ordinary people's weddings, and the etiquette is much more cumbersome.

The ceremony of awarding rewards in the palace is generally held in the Zichen Palace, where the emperor is canonized and worshiped by hundreds of officials. Then enter the royal ancestral hall, worship the ancestors, enter the jade butterfly, and finally enter the cave room. This is just a concubine-level wedding, if it is a queen, she has to go to the city tower, accept the worship of all the people, and finally return to the Daqing Hall to enjoy singing and dancing.

After Moyu stepped into the Zichen Palace, he could only walk forward with his head down, stop in front of the steps, first three long live prostrations, perform national salutes, and then bow three times and call three thousand years old, and perform palace salutes. After listening to the inner servant reciting the canonization will, as for what the eunuchs who read the will, Moyu couldn't really hear it. This bun was so heavy that it made her head dizzy, and she only heard that in the end, it seemed that she was named Concubine Li, and she was given the position of a second-grade concubine in the Jade Immortal Palace.

After the will is recited, it is time for Moyu to receive the seal and the treasure. As a result, after the seal and the treasure award, she can be regarded as a real imperial concubine. With the permission of the emperor, you can get up, and then you can climb the stairs and walk to the emperor's side.

"Concubine Li, Niangniang, Chitose Chitose, Chitose." Standing on the steps, side by side with the emperor, he is the master, and he is naturally worshiped by hundreds of officials.

Mo Yu still lowered her head and looked at the hand stretched out under her eyes, Mo Yu knew whose hand it was, it was her husband's hand. After a moment's hesitation, he reached over and placed it on that hand. The palm of his hand was surrounded by the heat of the heat, and she was uncomfortable for a while, and the thick calluses on his palms made her very uncomfortable. Is this the hand of her future husband? To be honest, she doesn't reject it, but she doesn't like it either.

With her head slightly raised, she couldn't keep her head down, and she was curious about what her husband looked like. However, when her gaze touched the majestic and familiar face, she instinctively broke free of his hand and took a step back.

How could it be him, Bi Shufan?

But seeing him smile and pull her hand again, he felt her struggle slightly, and simply held it tighter, so as not to let her have any chance to break free, and then turned to the civil and military officials, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "The hundred officials are still waiting for you to shout flat!" ”

Mo Yu then thought that there was still a group of people kneeling in the hall, it was the first time that so many people knelt on her when she was so big, and she couldn't say the word "flat" after thinking about it for a long time.

There was a "cough" sound from the Queen Mother in my ears, probably because I had been waiting too long. Mo Yu became even more nervous, and cold sweat kept breaking out in her palms. She was so frightened today that she still couldn't react. There was the sound of Gangyang's breathing in her ears, and she habitually ducked to the side, but heard him laugh lowly: "If you don't call them up, they will have to join you tomorrow." ”

Join her? She is not an official of the imperial court to participate in what she does. The queen mother's "cough" sound behind her sounded again, Moyu knew that she couldn't delay it any longer, she had to shout if she couldn't shout, everything has a first time! Take a deep breath and exhale.

"Ping...... Flat...... Flat. ”

After hearing these two words, Baiguan finally stood up with a sigh of relief, and looked up at Concubine Li, who was beautiful, how could she be a dumb person! This Ji Gangyang's daughter is mute, and the emperor canonized her as a concubine, where is this singing? The courtiers turned their heads to look at Ji Gangyang, who was bowing his head, and saw that he was bending over, and he was about to touch the ground.

A masculine voice came from beside him, "Guess what they thought of you just now?" ”

Mo Yu didn't know what these people thought of her, probably because she thought she was arrogant and coquettish, and dared to let hundreds of officials kneel for so long. This is the first day of being a concubine, and it will probably be even more so in the future. "What else can you think, it's just arrogant and rude."

"Haha, I guess they must have thought you were dumb."

No way! These ministers really think about which emperor would marry a mute concubine! Mo Yu cast an "impossible" look, in exchange for his "wait and see" look.

"Zhong Aiqing, Concubine Li is just new to the palace, and she is a little nervous, not as you think, there is any language barrier."

"Oh......"

Mo Yu almost vomited blood, and really treated her as a mute!

After the ceremony, the emperor naturally wanted to move to the Daqing Hall to participate in the court meeting and discuss state affairs with the courtiers. Mo Yu returned to the harem with the Queen Mother, accepted the worship of the noblewomen, and did not return to her palace - Jade Immortal Palace until the evening.

Jade is the jade of black jade. As for the fairy word, I don't know whether to understand it as praising her for being beautiful and beautiful, or praising this palace for being beautiful and beautiful, and it is where the fairy lives. In short, the name is very flamboyant.

The red candle on the table is half lit, so it must be late at night! However, her husband, the current emperor, has not yet come.

In front of the statue of Guanyin, red dates, peanuts, longan, and lotus seeds are enshrined, implying that a noble son is born early. On the table, the walls are covered with big red happy characters, and the red silk sways in the wind. In this hall, it is very festive, but it is very big, so big that it is lonely.

Mo Yu saw Xiang Rong's unrelenting look, and hurriedly asked, "Xiang Rong, what's wrong?" ”

"I don't know, I always feel that this palace is not the first time I have been here, and I always feel a sense of familiarity. I don't know why this is happening, but it's the first time I've been here. Xiang Rong said what she felt in her heart, every rockery and every corridor here, she seemed to have been here.

Mo Yu explained: "Have you dreamed of it before? ”

"Probably! Miss, it's late, the emperor ......"

"It's late, go to sleep!" It's late at night outside, so he probably won't come! It's okay if you don't come.

Yunshang and Xiangrong glanced at each other, but they were also helpless. Xiang Rong said: "Niangniang, tonight is the night of candles in your cave room, the emperor ...... He's too much, if he doesn't come at this time, what does he mean......"

Mo Yu interrupted Xiang Rong's words at the right time. "In the future, try not to talk when you can't speak, just let Yunshang speak, even if it's only the three of us, you have to talk less." When she entered the palace, she only brought these two maids, originally she only wanted to bring Yunsheng, and she wanted to follow her if she wanted to die or live, but she had no choice but to take her. But her temperament is too easy to find trouble.

"Niangniang......" Xiang Rong was very unconvinced, why didn't she speak?

Mo Yu's voice couldn't help but get a little worse, and said, "What is the reason for you to ask Yunshang later, I will say it one last time, if you don't listen, I can only send you back to Ji Mansion." Remember? Seeing her nodding aggrievedly, Mo Yu let her go, "Go down!" ”

This was the first time she had said such heavy words to them, although she couldn't bear it in her heart. But I can't bear to do this, the emperor hasn't come yet, and what will others think of her when she goes out tomorrow. In this palace, without the emperor's grace, she can't even protect herself, let alone two girls.

Thinking about what to say, Yunshang pushed her, "Niangniang, then you have a good rest." ”

The night was long, so long that you could know exactly what to fight.

Take out the jade flute brought back from Wuyan Mountain, this jade flute was given to him by the night sky. Think of how relaxing it was when they drank together on the mountain! Perhaps, he never noticed, and only when he was there, she would play this flute. Now that you have entered the palace, you will change this habit in the future!

Zhu lips opened slightly, the transverse flute was in his hand, and between the fingers turned over the clouds, a light music came out, floating into the air, bringing more loneliness to this silent night.

At the end of the song, Mo Yu felt much more relaxed. When I heard the footsteps behind me, I thought it was Yunshang coming back. "Yunshang, you go to sleep, don't ......"

When Mo Yu turned around, the person in front of him was not Yunsheng, and a bright yellow sign proved who this person was. She hurriedly knelt on her knees, kowtowed, and said: "Moyu saw the emperor, I didn't know that the emperor had arrived, and I didn't welcome him from afar, and I hope that the emperor will forgive me." ”

The emperor walked up to her, bent down to help her, and said with a smile: "When did you know how to count etiquette so well?" ”

"Your Majesty." Mo Yu got up, lowered her head and looked at her toes, secretly saying that she had always been very polite.

"Look up."

Mo Yu raised his head to eye level with him, and saw his blazing eyes staring at her, and said a little uncomfortably: "Can the emperor not stare at me like this?" ”

"Haha, you have times when you are afraid. Forget it, the song just now is very good, let's blow another song! ”

She is like this song, elegant and dusty, I feel that she is standing there but it seems that she can't catch a woman. She wasn't the most beautiful woman he'd ever seen, but she was the most comfortable looking.

Mo Yu blew another song according to the order, and after the song was finished, he bowed his head slightly, waiting for the emperor to speak.

The emperor watched her stand there quietly, if he insisted on seeing her in Wuyan Mountain, what would be the result now? But it's not too late, such a smart woman is by her side, and taking advantage of it is also a big help. He patted the position next to him and said, "Your husband teaches the flute well." Come and sit! ”

Mo Yu stepped forward and sat down, feeling the temperature from the man next to him, a little uncomfortable, and moved to the side without a trace. "If you go back to the emperor, in fact, this flute was not taught by Mr. When Moyu lived in his hometown, he kept a lot of books at home, and Moyu learned from books. This is the truth, she wanted to learn the flute but because she didn't have one, so she gave her this one at night.

The corners of the emperor's mouth turned up slightly, she was honest, how could there be a gentleman on that mountain, he had already been investigated clearly. When she was eight years old, Ji Gangyang picked her up from Beishan Street, and later threw her in the deep mountains and old forests and ignored her, if it weren't for Ji Feicui's chickenpox, I'm afraid Ji Gangyang wouldn't have thought of her!

"When you stood there just now, I thought you were some kind of fairy who came down to earth, surrounded by colorful and gorgeous rhododendrons, and you stood among the flowers, and smiled back at me, and there was nothing." He praised heartily.

"Is the emperor telling the truth? I can't think I'm saying I'm a wild girl! ”

"How can the eldest lady of the Ji family be a wild girl, but the jade return on Wuyan Mountain is a complete wild girl."

Moyu looked up at him in disbelief, didn't she? This first night's identity was revealed, and it was too fast! Now that you know it, you can admit it generously. "The concubine's parents worked hard to arrange a very noble identity for the concubine, but I didn't expect the emperor to know about it a long time ago, and we were still going around like a clown. When did the emperor know that the jade was black jade? ”

"To be exact, I knew Moyu first, and then I knew about Yugui."

Mo Yu probably understood that one of the two people who went up the mountain a month ago was the emperor. Then she entered the palace to play the flute for the Queen Mother, and the emperor probably felt that the flute was familiar to check her, and she knew everything when she checked. Or maybe the emperor didn't know anything, but he routinely checked the details of every woman who entered the palace, and didn't want to find out so many things at once.

"Then why did the emperor tell his concubine about this?"

The Emperor frowned slightly. "In the future, when there are only the two of us, you don't have to call yourself a concubine, just like when we first met, it's good." As at the beginning, they were friends and acquaintances. He took her into his arms and said, "I am telling you this to tell you that no matter what your identity is, it is all in the past, and from now on, you have only one identity, you are my woman." ”

My woman, this identity, is as beautiful as it is heavy, and as happy as it is lonely. Maybe soon, she will become a woman with no memory for him, buried in his mausoleum, and see each other again in a hundred years.

The night outside the window is silent, the red candles in the window are swaying, and a few families are happy and a few are sad.
