The wedding date was thus set, and Cheng Qianxun allowed Lagasi to enter the palace. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Seeing that after Lagaci came in, he sat there and stretched his face, Cheng Qianxun was really angry and funny.

She said softly: "Don't be like this, you're about to become a groom, are you still unhappy like this?" I saw that girl, she is very beautiful, she is docile and intelligent, and she will definitely take good care of you in the future. ”

Ragassi just didn't speak, like a child who was angry.

Looking at Lagassi, although people in this era get married very early, after all, in her eyes, this age is really young.

She sighed slightly: "You are already twenty years old, you look at the people around you for yourself, which one didn't have a wife and children before the age of seventeen or eighteen." In the past, there were no conditions, but now that you have everything, you should have a family. "I feel that my tone is like that of my parents and grandmother, and even the words she says are the same, but she still has to say it, otherwise it will hurt Lagassi.

"But I, but I..." Ragassi wanted to say goodbye, but in the end he didn't say anything, lowered his head and continued to sullen.

Cheng Qianxun smiled and shook his head: "Don't pursue the impossible, the ideal is one thing, the reality is another." I'm going to leave sooner or later, and it's impossible to find anyone around. Whether you live or die, you can't guarantee yourself. The only person I'm worried about here is you, and all I want to do is that you get married and have children. ”

Ragassi raised her head, her big eyes filled with excitement: "The only one worried? I thought the Queen was worried... ”

She was stunned for a moment, and it seemed that she had said the wrong thing, so she hurriedly remedied: "Other kings?" They are not the most worried, after all, they are all kings. ”

Lagassi's shining eyes suddenly dimmed, but he still raised his chest: "I didn't expect the queen to still have me in her heart, okay, as long as it's for the queen, I'm willing to die, don't talk about getting married!" He jerked to his feet.

Cheng Qianxun looked at him in astonishment: "Why are you going?" ”

Ragasi said with a full heart: "Ready to get married!" After saying that, he respectfully stepped back, and strode away at the door.

Cheng Qianxun was cold for a long time and smiled bitterly, what is this called. It's fine, as long as Ragassi agrees to get married.

Lagassi's wedding was approaching, when the maid walked in: "Queen! ”

The maid was specifically inquiring about the preparations for the wedding, so she asked, "How is it going?" ”

"Everything is being prepared, and the bride of the woman will go to the temple tonight and sit in front of the temple and wait for the blessing of the gods." The maid's words made Cheng Qianxun wake up suddenly, yes, the custom here is that the bride should sit in front of the temple and wait for the first man who is willing to take her back before getting married, and then get a silver coin and give it to the temple priest to be blessed.

That's not going to work! Cheng Qianxun jumped up suddenly, thought about it and asked a few times.

Cheng Qianxun stood on the big platform in front of the palace and looked down. The temple is not far from the royal palace and can be seen at a glance.

It's already sunset and torches. The whole of Ekashgar is still bustling with merchants, the markets outside the city are still doing business, and the taverns in the city are thriving.

Several brides who were about to be married, covered with linen, were brought to the temple by their families. One by one, they sat on the steps of the temple, waiting for the first man in their lives to appear. Their mothers or married sisters send them in and leave, and if they can't wait for a man, they have to sit all the time, but generally they wait, and few postpone the wedding and wait for the bride to bud. Now it was even easier, and there were many merchants who were willing to pay a silver coin to give these brides the "blessing of God."

The bride of Lagassi came, covered with a long linen cloth from the top of her head, but why did she recognize it, because the spies sent out by the palace followed her not far behind.

The bride sat on the steps, still draped in linen over her head, and if a man came to see what she looked like, she would uncover it.

After a while, the man came.

Cheng Qianxun looked straight at it, with a fat stomach and a big beard, he was already forty years old, how could he be worthy of this flower-like girl.

The man walked up to him, but immediately turned around and walked up to another waiting bride and asked the bride to remove the cloth covering her head. After one glance, a silver coin was still on the hem of her dress. The bride picked up the silver coin and stood up, and meekly followed the man.

Then another man came, younger than just now, but Cheng Qianxun still shook his head, half a head shorter than Lagassi, and he was not a good match for this little girl.

Before the man could get to him, he turned around in fright and left, and the other brides stopped looking.

The bride turned her head to see that the reason that scared all the men away was that there were four palace guards standing behind her. One by one held spears, and in order to reflect the effect, Cheng Qianxun also deliberately chose the tallest.

Look at the muscles on the arms and chests of the four guards, there will only be more than others, not less than others. Cheng Qianxun smiled proudly.

The bride asked the guards about it, and although Cheng Qianxun couldn't hear it, she knew that she would definitely ask why she was standing behind her. Naturally, the guards would also answer that it was to stand guard and protect the safety of the temple.

The bride was helpless, she stood up and moved to the other side. As soon as she sat down, the four guards followed with spears and stood not far behind her. The man was tall and big, and he looked at the man who didn't come.

God knows what this woman has done, so there are four guards standing behind her.

Look at the bride who seems to have come to wait for God's blessing and serve another man, but why is there still a person standing behind her? Forget it, let's take a detour, anyway, the bride has it every day, just look for others.

The merchants were away from home, and of course, with the attitude of not getting into trouble, naturally turned their attention to other brides.

The bride of Lagassi reluctantly stood up again, but she was like a plague god now, and the other brides avoided her wherever she went. And the four shadows behind her followed closely, and wherever she went, she stood. Then he held a spear in one hand and a bear in the other, and stood guard in a very stylish manner.

Cheng Qianxun's stomach was about to burst with laughter, when he heard someone behind him say that the high priest asked to see him.

"Nope!" Cheng Qianxun knew why the high priest came: "Take ten silver coins to him, and tell him, I dreamed at night, and I dreamed that a demon was going to invade the temple, and I could send a few guards to stop it." As for other things, let him rest assured that he will definitely receive the blessing fee of one silver coin, and leave the rest alone. ”

The high priest naturally came for this purpose, and sure enough, the high priest left after getting the money. was still saluting her below, and Cheng Qianxun naturally smiled and nodded to him.

In the middle of the night, the brides in front of the temple were taken away by men, and it is said that one of them had smallpox, and after healing, his face was full of pockmarks. Even if it is pockmarked, there are still no people who want the bride of Lagasi, or no one dares to ask for it.

The bride was really pitiful, holding herself tightly with her arms and hugging up on the steps, her thin clothes were not enough to resist the cold of the night in the Gobi Desert. If it weren't for the four guards with weapons in the back, no matter how ugly she looked, there would be men who pity her and take her away. Anyway, a silver coin is nothing to many big dealers who do business.

Cheng Qianxun, who was wearing sheepskin and waiting until now, was a little anxious, and with a wave, the maid came forward. She asked, "Did you tell Ragassi?" ”

"Got it!" The chief maid replied, "As soon as the queen commanded it, she sent for it." ”

But why don't you come, the bride is about to freeze if she goes down. Cheng Qianxun hurriedly said: "Let's talk again." Say as miserable as you can, and let him get dressed up and go immediately. ”

The bride must serve other men if she is to be blessed by God. So he took a fake beard and gave it to Ragassi, so that he could go over and lead the bride as a prostitute.

After about ten minutes, the chief maid came and whispered, "Lagassi refuses to go, saying that even if the queen commands it, it cannot be against the will of God." ”

Cheng Qianxun was so angry that he scolded softly: "Is he really not going to get married?" ”

"Seems to mean that... The chief maid added another word of relief: "Maybe he is also loyal to the rules." Queen, if you don't let the guards take down, the man should treat her well when he sees all this. ”

"Please, please, say to him..." Cheng Qianxun didn't do it, and after hesitating for a moment, he said: "Don't forget, even if I am the queen, I will have a day to sit in front of the temple." ”

That's enough weight, he should be willing to pick up his bride in front of the temple. To be honest, it was hard for the bride to follow a man she didn't know for the first night, and it might be nice for the bride to say that she would let Ragassi have her own woman completely. After all, the two of them still have a long life.

When the maid heard this, she smiled and withdrew.

This time, it was the chief maid who went out in person, watching the chief maid draped in linen, bowing her body slightly, and quietly going out. Cheng Qianxun only hopes that Ragassi can understand her hard work.

Ten minutes later, a figure was seen in front of the temple. It's Lagassi!

Cheng Qianxun's heart jumped, but he immediately scolded secretly. He didn't even wear makeup, what was he doing?

Ragassi stood in front of the bride and watched, and the bride looked at him shivering.

Ma's go, go! Cheng Qianxun was so anxious that she was about to burst into foul language, why the groom can't take the bride, after Lagassi takes the bride, tomorrow someone asks, she will pretend to be stupid. If it doesn't work, you will insist that others are wrong; In the end, if it really doesn't work, add another law, if you don't want to serve other men in front of the temple, you can directly hand over two silver coins to the temple, this temple is not just to collect money, and the king hopes to develop more population. Because a certain percentage of brides will give birth to other people's children, so that in the era of consanguineous marriage, the quality of the population may be better.

Lagassi looked at it for a long time, and finally moved. He walked over step by step, making Cheng Qianxun's heart rise to his throat.

Ragassi walked up to the bride, took off the sheepskin from her shoulders, and draped it over her shoulders, which were shivering with cold. Then he turned and walked away! (To be continued.) )
