218 Married
This day is the twenty-fourth day of the first month, there is an excellent sun in the morning, and thousands of people are empty to see the queen's makeup in the rising sun, a total of two hundred lifts, divided into two days into the palace. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
From the Dongcheng Fang homeland, enter the Donghua Gate, Xiehe Gate, the back left gate, and carry into the Qianqing Palace. At the same time, Jin Concubine and Zhen Concubine also have dowries, the number is not as much as the queen, and they cannot enter the palace from the front, so they are carried from the Shenwu Gate to the East Sixth Palace for placement.
The two families began at eight o'clock in the morning and finished at two o'clock in the afternoon, when the weather suddenly changed, and the clouds were thick, and it was snowing in the evening.
This is a thing that kills the scenery, not to mention the 27th wedding day, at least the second batch of makeup will be issued the next day, and there will be many inconveniences in the rain and snow. The deacons of the two families prepared tarpaulins overnight and covered the bride tightly with the dowry to be issued.
This is like a "brocade night walk", there is nothing to be seen, and there are not necessarily many people who come out to see the excitement in the wind and snow. How many days of hard work, looking forward to the glory of these two days, as compensation, I don't want to be half disappointed, Gui Xiang is very disappointed.
"It's boring!" He said to his wife, "I saw that there was a queen, and she prepared a dowry, and she dumped my house." That's not to mention, it's okay to spend your family to earn face, but it's like this weather again! ā
"What are you afraid of?" Mrs. Gui Xiang said, "There are many good things, but this is good." ā
"Okay?" Gui Xiang sneered, "What's good? Seeing that he is about to return to power, how much grace do you think the emperor will have to our family? ā
"No matter what, you always accept the grace of the father, and two days ago there was a decree to wait for the waiter. There is the queen mother in the palace, and there is the seventh master outside, and I am afraid that you will be missing your official work. I'm afraid that you won't be able to drop this smoking gun, no matter how good the errand is, it will be in vain. ā
"Forget it, forget it! I really don't want to be a Cheng'en Gong. Look at the ...... of Chongwen Mountain. "'Phew!' Mrs. Gui Xiang hurriedly interrupted, "The more you talk, the better, how can you compare yourself to this unlucky ghost?" It's not a taboo! ā
Gui Xiang shrank his head, smoked the gun in his mouth, swallowed the clouds and spitted out the fog, and did not ask about everything.
Mrs. Guixiang saw her husband like this, she was really a little sad, and she was also a little worried: on the fifth day of the first month of February, the emperor gave the family after the banquet, and hundreds of officials accompanied her, Guixiang did not do a big official, nor did he go through a big scene.
Looking at his trivial description, will he lose his honor and make bizarre jokes at that time? It's hard to say.
The snow fell overnight, and the ground was full of grain. In the afternoon, the snow melts completely, and the roads are muddy, so it is not easy to walk under the snow. Some people say that this is called "heavenly laughter", and some people say that it is "heavenly eyes". I don't know what the Lord is?
The next day, the twenty-sixth day of the first lunar month, is the day when the queen is announced.
Before noon, hundreds of officials gathered, three o'clock at noon, the emperor ascended to the throne in the Taihe Palace, in the loud and crisp sound of the net whip "brush, brush", the prince and the hundred officials, performed three kneeling and nine kowtows, and then the officials of the Ministry of Rites announced the system.
Read out the edict of the canonization of the empress, and welcome the envoy Wuyingdian University scholar Erle Hebu, the deputy envoy Shangshu Kuirun, and the special envoy Fengying ten ministers and ten members, kneeling to listen, waiting for the emperor to return to the palace.
Immediately hold the festival by the Dan Majesty in the middle of the lower hall, escort the queen's gold book and jade treasure, and put a royal pen in the word "dragon" Jin Ruyi Fengyu, out of the Taihe Gate, across the Jinshui Bridge, through the noon gate, the Qing Gate, turn to the east, slowly go to the back of the house.
As soon as the queen was not immediately welcomed into the palace, according to the time chosen by the Qin Tianjian, until midnight when the twenty-seventh son was handed in, the queen began to accept the treasure.
At that time, the west wind was blowing, like a galloping horse. Fortunately, the Luan Yiwei will run errands, hundreds of pairs of painted phoenix lanterns, and use glass as lampshades, which are very delicate and dexterous.
Therefore, the honor guard of Fengying went slowly.
Zizheng out of the back house, from the Fangjiayuan through Shijia Hutong, East Street, Chang'an Archway, Bingbu Street, Dongjiang Rice Lane, into the Daqing Gate, has been Yinshi. The Jingyang bell at the noon gate slammed, and the sound shook the nine cities, and the people at the feet of the Son of Heaven knew that the queen had entered the palace.
The cave room for the big wedding is usually located in the East Warm Pavilion of Kunning Palace.
When the emperor and queen both went to the dragon and phoenix happy bed, the palace from the Empress Dowager Cixi to the palace maids and eunuchs had already gotten up, and some people, such as Li Lianying, had never slept at all this night.
The queen sat on the edge of the dragon bed with her head bowed, just waiting for the emperor to come and sleep with her. The emperor just stood by the window, staring blankly at the dark night outside, without saying a word, as if there was an infinite amount of unspeakable hidden.
The queen just lowered her head and waited, but after waiting for a long time and not hearing any movement from the emperor, she couldn't help but look up and secretly glanced at the emperor.
Seeing that the emperor was just staring out the window, an indescribable melancholy rose in his heart.
"I am not the emperor's favorite person, can I live well with the emperor in the future?" The queen couldn't help but ask herself, but she couldn't answer herself, and no one could answer now.
The queen quietly walked down the dragon bed, walked over and plugged in the plug of the cave room, and then sat quietly on the dragon bed, and when she saw that the emperor was still staring out of the window, she couldn't help but call out in a low voice: "Your Majesty!" ā
Emperor Guangxu did not answer, nor did he move, as if he had not heard the queen's cry at all.
"Your Majesty!" The queen couldn't help but scream again.
"Hmm." The emperor agreed softly, but remained motionless, with an indifferent expression.
"It's not too early, so let's rest early."
"Got it, you go to sleep first, and let me stand alone for a while, maybe it's better."
If the emperor doesn't sleep first, how can he sleep first? Thinking like this, the empress gently walked down the dragon bed again, came to the emperor's side, gently took his hand and said, "Is there anything you can't think about tomorrow?" Rest early today! ā
When the emperor heard this, he shook his whole body, and suddenly a warm current surged through his body, and he immediately returned to his original state.
But no matter what, Emperor Guangxu still followed the queen to the edge of the dragon bed. He didn't care what the queen thought, so he lay down with his clothes.
The queen ignored all this, took off her clothes herself, lay down beside the emperor, stroked his face, and whispered: "Does the emperor know what day it is for us?" ā
Emperor Guangxu just nodded and didn't say anything.
"Then what are you doing in a daze?" As the queen spoke, she hugged Emperor Guangxu's head and pasted it.
Emperor Guangxu pulled out his hands, blocked the empress, and then broke his head out of the empress's dead hand and said, "I'm too tired, let's rest well." After saying that, regardless of how the queen felt, she turned over and twisted her head to the side.
The queen lay there in a daze, unable to tell whether she was regretful, hateful, sad, or angry in her heart, but felt two tears flow silently from her eyes.
Concubine Jin and Concubine Zhen lived together in Yikun Palace by Yi's order, which can be seen as the Empress Dowager Cixi's love for these two sisters, but it may also be said that they are placed under the elbows and armpits, which are easy to monitor. Yikun Palace was called Wan'an Palace in the Ming Dynasty, and it was lived by concubines, and when the Empress Dowager Cixi was a concubine, she lived here and gave birth to Mu Zong.
Concubine Jin is fifteen years old, and Concubine Zhen is even younger, only thirteen years old, although they are very sensible, in the end, when they first enter the deep palace, they only have a heavy system and have no relatives, it can be imagined that their hearts are not only lonely and desolate, but also afraid and confused, longing for someone to guide and comfort.
"What are we supposed to do?"
Concubine Jin couldn't answer her sister's words because she didn't know what to do.
Don't even know who you really are? Whose day is it?
"Shall we just sit like this?" Concubine Zhen asked, "But what are you waiting for?" ā
Are you waiting to meet the Queen Mother? No! Even the queen could not visit Cining Palace until the second day of the second month of February.
I don't know who set the rules? The big wedding is not like marrying a daughter-in-law in the people, and the first thing to do is to worship Aunt Weng, and it takes six days before the queen can see the "mother-in-law". The concubines in the West Palace are naturally even further behind.
Is it waiting for the emperor's luck? I'm afraid not. On the first day, of course, you have to let the queen.
However, on the first day of the lifelong event, there is no night of "Flower Candles in the Cave Room" that girls don't pay attention to, and it passes in such a daze? Concubine Jin sighed silently, got up and went back to her room.
Concubine Zhen didn't think as much as her sister thought, she only felt restrained and panicked.
With nowhere to go, nothing to do, and no one to talk to, fidgeting and not being able to pretend to be dignified, sitting there upright. If this continues, don't you drive people crazy?
No way! She said to herself, she had to think of a way to get rid of it. At the very least, you can find someone to ask for questions. Thinking like this, he waved to the palace maid standing outside the window with a smile.
Two palace maids came in, both of them said goodbye, stood up and stood solemnly, waiting for her to ask.
"What's your name?" She asked the older one.
"The minion's name is Zhen'er."
"What about you?"
"The minion's name is Fukusan." The young maid replied.
"How many years have you been in the palace?"
"The slave has been in the palace for six years." Zhen'er pointed at Fuzo, "She was only picked in last year." ā
"I've been in the palace for six years, and I've learned a lot of things." Concubine Zhen asked, "Do you also see the emperor?" ā
"No!" Zhen'er replied, "No, you are not allowed to go to the Lord Banzai." ā
"I don't know much about the rules of the palace, you have to teach me."
At this time, Concubine Zhen found that the people in the courtyard were chaotic, running in a hurry, as if she was on guard, her heart moved, thinking that the emperor was coming, and suddenly her heart was raised, and she was a little uncomfortable.
She only guessed half correctly, someone came, but it was not the emperor, but Li Lianying.
"Please come out of the hall to listen to the announcement, Lafayette has a reward."
Concubine Zhen's heart was settled, and she was thinking in her heart: It is said that Li Lianying is arrogant, and even King Li calls him a brother and sister in private. It's a big deal to be a eunuch's head, what's the big deal!
Under this childlike thought, she ignored him, slowly stepped out of the moral hall, walked into the main hall, and found that the scene had changed, under the steps to the east, her sister Jin Concubine led the solemn standing, and below was the palace maid and eunuch, standing in a row, silent.
