Chapter 16 The Rite of Harmony
Zhuge Jinyun saw that Zhuge Ruoyu was really angry, withdrew his hand and sat down side by side with her, and said flatteringly: "The second brother didn't mean it, so don't be angry." It's not good to be angry, you'll get old! ”
Zhuge Ruoyu was silent, how could she be so stingy. It's too late to worry about it.
Seeing her sad expression, Zhuge Jinyun took her hand and asked, "What's wrong with my little sister lately, I always feel that you have something on your mind." "My little sister is getting more and more different from before, from the innocent and lovely she has become a person who now has something on her mind and bears it alone.
"Second brother, I'm ......" Zhuge Ruoyu bit her lip tightly, not knowing whether to tell Zhuge Jinyun that she was leaving the Houfu.
Zhuge Jinyun saw her embarrassed, and knew that she didn't want to open her mouth and let them worry about her. That's it, don't say it, don't say it, if the little sister really wants to tell him, she will naturally say it, maybe the time has not come!
"Don't talk about this, the second brother will take you to my study to read the books!" Zhuge Jinyun pulled Zhuge Ruoyu up and walked out of the pavilion.
Zhuge Ruoyu followed behind with a smile on her face, she knew that the second brother wanted to divert her attention and didn't want to worry so much, sure enough, the relatives in the Houfu were really good to her.
Today's Stable Waiting House is bustling. The king and queen arrived at the palace first, and brought a large number of guards to help the palace maintain order. All kinds of high-ranking officials dressed in brocade clothes brought their wives and Miss Gongzi to participate in Zhuge Ruoyu's ceremony.
Valuable gifts were put into the hands of the porter and recorded in the books, and the porter servants were very busy. An Dinghou and his two sons were busy greeting guests, and although the people had not slept all night, they were still in good spirits and kept their busy feet on the ground. Even though it was late autumn, I was still sweating profusely.
Ziyun also came to the Hou Mansion, and was listening to the rain pavilion at the moment, watching Xu and Nalan Ling comb Zhuge Ruoyu's clothes.
She was dressed in a delicate dress made by a ready-to-wear store, with a bun combed on her head, a hairpin that Xu had carefully selected and purchased for her, and the rest of the three thousand hairpins were draped behind her like ink. On her face is the light makeup that Nalan Ling carefully painted for her, and with that beautiful face, she is really a beautiful woman in the country.
Zhuge Ruoyu stood up, spun around, the skirt of the dress bloomed like a flower, and she had to praise herself in the bronze mirror, it was really beautiful.
Xi'er and Ziyun looked at Zhuge Ruoyu with the same envy, their eyes full of amazement. Their daughter and sister-in-law are so beautiful, Xu and Nalan Ling are naturally proud in their hearts, and they all think that they will strictly control Zhuge Ruoyu's future husband in the future.
Situ Chenyi floated in the air, looking at Zhuge Ruoyu below, and felt satisfied. Although her appearance is different from her previous life, her rain is still so beautiful. After today, they will soon set foot on the road to Penglai, and when they wash away the mortal qi on Yu'er's body, it will not be far to retrieve their memories for Yu'er.
Thinking that Yu'er could have the memories of his previous life and that they could continue the relationship of his previous life, his heart was happy. Even after waiting for a thousand years, he was willing to eat.
At the beginning of the ceremony, Zhuge Ruoyu and Xu and others came to the hall and saw all the guests taken to the ancestral hall by An Dinghou and Xu, and the guests were watching outside the ancestral hall.
Zhuge Ruoyu was guided by the Xu family, knelt on the futon and worshiped the ancestors, and then the queen put a jade crown on Zhuge Ruoyu's head, indicating Zhuge Ruoyu and Xu.
Zhuge Ruoyu bowed to the ancestors again, and then bowed to Xu and An Dinghou, thanking them for their sixteen years of nurturing and teaching, and then bowed to the queen, thanking her for presiding over the ceremony for her today, and finally bowing to the guests who watched the ceremony.
An Dinghou announced the ceremony, and then took all the guests to sit, and the people served the carefully prepared meals to the table in an orderly manner, and settled Hou stood at the main table and drank a glass of wine to thank the guests for coming, and then announced the beginning of the banquet.
The banquet lasted for two hours, and the guests slowly dispersed when they were full of wine and food, and the lively waiting house was instantly quiet because of the departure of the guests.
Xu Shi and An Dinghou went to the tent to count the gifts and gifts they received today, and Zhuge Qingyun and Zhuge Jinyun followed to help. Xu asked the housekeeper to carefully prepare the return gift for the guests according to the roster recorded by the porter, so as to show the thoughtfulness of the courtesy.
Zhuge Ruoyu returned to Tingyu Pavilion tiredly with the support of Xi'er, changed into a grand dress, put on the autumn clothes he wore on weekdays, and then took off the jade crown, put it in the jewelry box for safekeeping, lay on his back on the bed sleepily, and fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.
Xi'er saw Zhuge Ruoyu asleep and knew that she was tired. Miss has to sleep until she wakes up naturally on weekdays, but today Mrs. called her up before dawn for Miss's ceremony, so it's no wonder that Miss is not sleepy.
Xi'er covered Zhuge Ruoyu with a thin quilt, cleaned up the room lightly, took the dirty clothes in her hands, and walked out of the room to cover the door. told the other maids to keep it well, and went to do their own business.
As soon as Xi'er left, Situ Chenyi came out of the jade, looking at Zhuge Ruoyu's sleeping face on the bed, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he wanted to reach out to touch it, but he gave up because he was a ghost.
He sat on the edge of the bed, staring fixedly at the sleeping person, guarding her bedside.
The palace of the demon clan, in the palace of Ji Yingling. Ji Yingling swept the meal brought by the maid to the ground, pointed at the maid who was trembling because of fear, and yelled angrily: "Get out, get out, get out of me." ”
The maid fled, and the demon queen came in from outside, saw the embarrassment all over the ground, and asked, "Ling'er, what's wrong?" "Since the demon feast, Ling'er's temper has become much more irritable, which is really a bad phenomenon.
Ji Yingling saw that it was the demon queen, walked to the demon queen's side, grabbed the demon queen's hand and said coquettishly: "Mother, can you help me tell my father to let me go to the demon world?" I really want to see the Demon Lord! ”
She really wanted to go to the Demon Realm to see the Demon Lord who made her fascinated, but just now she went to her father's bedroom and said this, but her father refused, and she was so angry in her heart.
"A girl takes the initiative to find a man, can your father not refuse? Even the queen mother thinks this is inappropriate! The demon queen did not agree to Ji Yingling's proposal. Ling'er is the princess of the demon clan, where can she take the initiative to find the other party, not to mention that the demon lord is ruthless to Ling'er at all......
Ji Yingling listened to the words of the demon queen, pouted, withdrew her hand, and looked unhappy. Why is even the queen mother like this?
The demon queen took Ji Yingling and sat down, and said earnestly: "Ling'er, you are the princess of the demon clan, and your appearance is so outstanding, I don't know how many demon clan children like you in the demon clan!" Why do you want to be like this for a demon lord who is ruthless to you? ”
Ji Yingling felt aggrieved for a while, "But Ling'er has only been moved by the Demon Lord for a hundred years!" Queen Mother, will you let my father help me marry the Demon Lord? "With the help of the father and queen mother, the chances of the demon lord agreeing must be very high.
"Do you love the Demon Lord so much? Don't forget, he loved the human woman beside him that day, maybe the Demon Lord's sweetheart was her! The demon queen continued to remind.
When Ji Yingling heard this, she thought of Zhuge Ruoyu beside Mo Ling that day, and there was a burst of jealousy in her eyes, "Since that's the case, then I'll go and kill that human woman, and see how the Demon Lord still likes her!" ”
She is the princess of the demon clan, and it is easy to kill a human! As long as that woman is dead, she will go to the Demon Lord's side and treat him well, and the Demon Lord will definitely fall in love with her!
