Chapter 628: Giving Makeup
readx; In a blink of an eye, it was the end of July, which was the day when the Ministry of Rites selected Gao Zhen, the prince of Guangping, and issued a book to the princess. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhao Xiu is about to marry the prince of Guangping as a concubine, according to the laws of this dynasty, the royal family is going to give her a gold book. The emperor appointed two imperial court officials as envoys, one was one and one pair, and very solemnly followed the etiquette norms, and sent the golden book to the Jiannan Marquis Mansion.
Zhao Xiu's gold album is actually silver-gilded, with a total of four pages, each page weighing fifteen taels, holding it in his hand, heavy. With this golden book, Zhao Xiu can be regarded as an official royal daughter-in-law. She changed into the Zhai clothes sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, sat upright, and accepted the female officials and the female relatives who came to congratulate her.
Zhang looked at his granddaughter wearing a big red Zhai dress and a Qizhai crown, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red. Although she has been looking forward to this day for a long time, her granddaughter, who has grown up since she was a child, has become someone else's daughter-in-law, and she can no longer be happy under her knees, and she is still a little uncomfortable in her heart. Fortunately, Zhao Xiu was married in the capital, and the father and son of the king of Guangping did not have a fief, so they did not have to be in the domain, let alone in Jiading, as long as she lived in the capital, she could see her granddaughter from time to time, and she did not have to be too uncomfortable. It's just that it's different from now when the family is reunited and living together.
Zhao Xiu didn't know what her grandmother was sad about, she was excited at the moment. Although she had long known from the teachings of Mama Gong and Mama Zuo that she would act according to what kind of etiquette she would follow when she married into the Guangping Palace, she felt quite fresh after the real experience. The wedding of the clan palace is really different from the folk. Of course, in addition to being fresh, it is also quite cumbersome. Fang Cai is just a golden book, and all kinds of rules are so trivial that they are a headache, and a dress is also heavy and tight. The crown of her head made her forehead ache. This is just a book, it will take a short time, and on the day of the wedding, she will wear such a dress for at least half a day, can she really hold on?
After sending off the people who came to congratulate, Zhao Xiu couldn't help but be coquettish to his grandmother.
After listening to her complaints, Zhang couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "How decent is this?" Who doesn't envy you? You're going to have to worry about the weight of your clothes and your crown - you go and ask the brides of other houses. Would you like to make your crown heavier? ”
Zhao Xiu pursed his lips: "I don't understand anyway." Why would a person like Emperor Taizu be willing to let himself suffer and have to stipulate the dress like this? Wouldn't it be lighter? Not only dresses. Even regular use is very cumbersome. This kind of crown dress is to make the person wearing it look better, or to make people unable to move. Then it looks solemn? "The most important thing is that Emperor Taizu has crossed over! How could he have the same idea as the ancients?
Where did Zhang hear such words? Immediately glared at his granddaughter angrily: "I was too serious, so I quickly went back to the house to change!" How many people in the world are blessed like you? People can't wear it if they want to. You don't cherish it! So he sent his granddaughter away, but the sadness in his heart had long since disappeared. She deeply felt that her granddaughter was still the innocent and ignorant child in her mind, even if she became a royal daughter-in-law. It's not going to change.
Zhao Xiu shrunk his neck, and hurriedly rushed back to his yard to change into homely clothes, before returning to his grandmother.
Mi Yingzhi was sitting next to Zhang. Holding the golden book, he read the words on it to Zhang. After reading it, he began to read the gift list that came with the golden book.
At the top of the gift list are the golden book and Zhao Xiu's just changed Zhai clothes, seven Zhai crowns, etc., in addition to several dresses, regular clothes and matching accessories, as well as a full set of ceremonial guards for the prince and princess, and even the clothes, shoes and socks of the female sedan chair man. This is to prepare the honor guard for the Zhao family on the day Zhao Xiu leaves the pavilion. Zhang discussed with Mi Yingzhi which maids should be selected to be the sedan chair man. Strength is certain, and the age should not be too large, it is best to have a good appearance and a similar body, so that it looks neat. This is also a rare decency, the daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law under the Hou Mansion are only afraid that they will go crazy, Mi Yingzhi plans to discuss with the Zhang family first to come up with a rough list in order to save the family from being uneasy.
Zhao Xiu was in the palm of his hand for a long time, and he also knew the personnel at home very clearly, so he helped a few people, Mi Yingzhi felt very good, and quickly wrote it down. Zhang also ordered two, and the rest was all picked by Mi Yingzhi. After waiting for the people to choose, he ordered the Wulai Xing family to bring someone to explain the matter, and then admonished him, and then ordered everyone to practice. These daughters-in-law are not sedan chair bearers on weekdays, they always have to train for a few days first, get used to the movements, adjust the rhythm, and get to the wedding day, so that they will not make mistakes.
Zhao Xiu looked at Mi Yingzhi and lectured, but Zhang urged her to go back to the room: "Leave the rest to your sister-in-law and me, I will never ask you to worry about it more." This is your wedding, you just need to take care of your health and condition, and listen to the arrangements with peace of mind. Zhao Xiu's face flushed slightly when he heard this, and he responded in a low voice.
The Guangping Royal Mansion soon sent the Inner Palace to send a gift of makeup, and the Ministry of Rites also sent a notice to the Jiannan Hou Mansion, stating that the day of the shop was two days before the wedding. Xiao Wang, the wife of Zhao Min in the third room of the Zhang family, took the lead, and Zhao Qixuan's wife Ma was the assistant, and Zhao Xiu's dowry was sent to the Guangping Palace.
Zhao Xiu got married, and Zhang and Zhao Wei accompanied her with one hundred and twenty-eight dowries, which can be called extremely rich. Among the female dependents of the clan, there are not many such specifications, and the princess of Fenyang, who only got married at the end of last year, only has sixty-four dowries, only half of Zhao Xiu's. But the onlookers secretly admired, but they would not say how expensive Zhao Xiu's dowry was, or how rich the Jiannanhou Mansion was, because books accounted for 30% of her dowry. Looking at those tomes of books stuffed in dozens of large boxes, as well as all kinds of study toys, calligraphy and painting antiques, anyone has to say that Zhao Xiu's dowry book is full of fragrance and is very expensive, who will use such a mundane thing as money to estimate the value of it?
However, many civil officials and scholars privately praised: "The scholarly heirloom of Jiannanhou Mansion is really good!" "I have long forgotten the grassroots birth and rough habits of the old county prince.
Bihan and Liu Lu were sent by Zhao Xiu to escort the box, and when they heard the discussion of the onlookers along the way, they couldn't mention how proud they were, and they couldn't wait to go back to the Hou Mansion immediately to tell the eldest girl, so that she could be happy.
When they arrived at the Guangping Palace, the middle door of the palace was wide open, and the officials of the palace and the chief manager of the palace were already waiting in the front yard. Zhao Xiu did not enter the door, and the highest-ranking female in the palace was the concubine Xiao. For most of the past half a year, he has been serving as the role of the housekeeper, but today it is Yanxia, the girl who is the henchman of King Guangping, and Yanyu, who is waiting by Gao Zhen's side. Concubine Xiao Shu was only responsible for the apparent etiquette, but she did not set foot in the Shizi Courtyard, not because she didn't want to, but Gao Zhen had already spoken. She didn't dare to disobey.
Shiziin is the territory of Takajeong. The housewife here is Zhao Xiu, and Concubine Xiao Shu only needs to be responsible for the management of the backyard of the palace and take care of the life of King Guangping. She didn't need to pay attention to the people on the side.
Gao Zhen had already sent Zhao Xiu the newly renovated topographic map of the Shizi Courtyard, so although Zhao Xiu had never seen this courtyard, he knew it in his heart, and he had already based on the size on the map. The furniture placement plan is arranged. When the people of the Zhao family came over, they only needed to follow the schematic diagram drawn by Zhao Xiu in advance. Place the corresponding furniture in the places marked on the diagram. In just two quarters of an hour, the new house was all furnished, and then slightly adjusted according to the actual situation, and put on the furnishings. All is well.
Xiao Wang and Ma looked at the furnishings in the new house, and they were very satisfied, and they also felt that Zhao Xiu, the sister-in-law, was really as capable as rumored. However, the style of the furniture for these dowries is exquisite and novel. There seem to be many that have never been seen before, and the carved patterns on the top are also interesting. It seems like there's a story......
They didn't think much about it, and they were sent by Concubine Xiao Shu to invite them out for tea. As usual, the dowry was to be spread out in the courtyard of the prince for half a day before it was put away. The new house was furnished so quickly, and it was better to invite someone to come over and talk. Concubine Xiao didn't dare to slack off, and she didn't have any unsavory thoughts. She's still worried about herself. Once Zhao Xiu marries in, she will be the rightful mistress of the palace, what will she do as the housekeeper when the time comes? It's not that there is no real housekeeper in the palace, could it be that she is useless at all? The father and son of King Guangping were very cold to her, and the emperor in the palace forgot about her, and never mentioned any errands. But she has no way to turn back, in order to live peacefully in the palace, she has to talk to the future princess. First of all, I have a good relationship with the cousins and sisters-in-law of the princess, maybe it can have some effect......
Bihan and Liu Lu continued to stay in the new house to decorate, they had served by Zhao Xiu's side for a long time, and they knew her preferences, and everything was arranged just right. Liu Lu is still a heart, and specially talked to Yanyu and a few of their big girls, openly and secretly wanting to find out how many girls there are in this world's courtyard, and whether any of them are particularly favored, and it is possible or has made a room for the prince......
Bihan was familiar with Yanyu and them, and quietly pulled Liu Lu and said, "You don't have to ask this, the prince is the most reliable." Before the girl made a marriage, she often came here, and if there was such a person, she would have known it a long time ago. She still doesn't ask, just to trust the meaning of the world's son. I'm not afraid to say more, if there is such a person, I'm afraid that the prince would have been sent away a long time ago, and he can still let those of us who are on errands beside the girl know? Liu Lu suddenly asked.
But Yanyu came up to them with a smile and asked: "I heard that the shelf bed for the princess's marriage, even the tent is matched, and it was sent over together?" We have a good bedding here, and the prince has repeatedly instructed that if you want to use it in the new house, why don't you replace it with ours first? When you want to change the cover in the future, you will change it to the one that was sent by you. ”
Liu Lu was puzzled: "What is the truth of this?" Isn't the cover of the new house prepared by the woman's family? Bihan was also puzzled.
Yanyu pursed her lips and smiled: "You will know when you see it." ”
Bihan and Liu Lu looked at it in the past, only to find that the cover was not a common red quilt, but it was carefully woven and embroidered, and the pattern on it was also very interesting. There are many carved or painted patterns on the shelf bed where Zhao Xiu married, which is actually about the bits and pieces she and Gao Zhen have experienced since they met since childhood. The covers and tents prepared by Gao Zhen are also embroidered or painted in the way of weaving and embroidery, drawing the pattern of boating on the blue waves, and the tall building boat is clearly the appearance of the lucky boat that the two of them sat on when they went down to the south of the Yangtze River, and even the two villains on the bow of the boat, a man and a woman, are also embroidered according to the appearance of Gao Zhen and Zhao Xiu.
Yanyu also pursed his lips and smiled: "The prince also said that he would prepare such a cover, and give the princess a surprise when she gets married." I didn't expect the princess to think of it a long time ago, it's really heartfelt! ”
Bihan and Liu Lu looked at each other, and their faces were a little red.
They returned to Jiannanhou Mansion and whispered to Zhao Xiu, Zhao Xiu suddenly became a little celebrity, but her heart was full of joy. (To be continued)
ps: I didn't find the regulations for the wedding of the prince and princess, so I wrote it according to the princess, and reduced it a little.
