Chapter 45: Surrender
Are you sure? Yulin didn't speak, just looked at King Wu, these eyes subconsciously reminded King Wu of that woman, suppressed the thoughts in his heart before smiling and said, "Of course it's true!" ”
"Even if my father lied to me, I believed it." The smile on Yulin's lips made King Wu both relieved and sad: "Daddy won't lie to you, my Yulin is the most haode daughter in the world!" Yulin's smile became brighter and brighter, King Wu didn't speak, just looked at his daughter, and the sun shone on Yulin's face, making her smile brighter.
On the eighteenth day of March, an auspicious day, a few days ago, the streets to be used were surrounded by curtains, and the water was sprinkled with pure water, so that the heavenly family would descend on the women today.
Just after the fifth watch, Yulin was woken up by everyone, and only after bathing did she freshen up and put on makeup, and today she was married to Princess Li and Mrs. Cheng of Chu County, both of whom are husband and wife who love their children and grandchildren. The two of them also arrived early, and the room was crowded with people, but there was no noise, and Mrs. Cheng and Li occasionally said a word or two.
The calmer she was, the more nervous Yulin became, even if she was a noble princess, she was afraid of some things. A hand was pressed on Yu Lin's shoulder, Yu Lin looked at Li's face, and Li had already said kindly: "When my daughter's family gets married, it is inevitable that she will be nervous, but being a princess is always different from others." ”
"You don't need to serve your in-laws, your sister-in-law and sister-in-law also respect you. It is different from our folk women marrying. Since Li spoke, Mrs. Cheng also said with a smile.
Li also smiled, the royal daughter who married and the girl who married into the royal family, the mood is actually different. Yulin tried to calm the smile on her face, but she couldn't make it smile. This kind of thing, others can't persuade it, Li can understand what Yulin is thinking, and he can only smile faintly.
"The Queen Mother has arrived!" Today, the emperor and queen will come to the palace of King Wu in person to send Yulin to marry, and the queen came to tell Yulin to marry, which is also a common thing, Li held Yulin down and asked her to wait in the house, and then took everyone out to greet her.
Yulin was the only one left in the room, and Yulin looked at herself in the mirror and always felt a little different from usual. After getting married, will the days be the same as imagined in the boudoir, or will they be different?
The queen had already led everyone into the house, and when she saw Yulin looking in the mirror, the queen was a little unhappy in her heart, originally, this woman should be her nephew and daughter-in-law, not marry someone else. However, the queen still suppressed the displeasure in her heart, smiled as usual on her face, and took a quick step to press Yulin, who wanted to get up and salute: "Today you are the bride, and you are the biggest in the big place." ”
The queen's words made everyone chuckle, and Yulin lowered her head and raised her eyebrows: "Thank you for your kindness!" The smile on the queen's face became more loving, as if she was really happy that Yulin was married, according to the custom, the queen told Yulin two sentences, and the maid had come to report, and the horse came to greet her.
Marrying a princess is still a little different from marrying someone else, Liu Jinsong was invited all the way to the palace, and the emperor and King Wu were already waiting there. Liu Jinsong paid a big salute first, and asked the heavenly family to descend to the girl.
The emperor said yes, and then the inner servant passed the decree and invited the princess.
When the will arrived, everyone gathered around Yulin to go to the palace, and when she arrived at the palace, Yulin first visited the emperor and King Wu, and after getting up, she stood up and listened to the emperor's will again, and the heavenly family descended as a princess. When the will arrived, Liu Jinsong bowed to Yulin, and Yulin replied. After worshipping, the emperor and queen each admonished, and then got into the sedan chair and left.
Liu Jinsong rode a horse and followed behind the princess's sedan chair, and the princess's full guard of honor lined up on the street, and walked towards the house.
To the house, Mrs. Liu led the whole family to welcome the princess, there was already a female official to report the exemption, then into the house, please the princess got off the sedan chair, entered the hall and the horse both worshipped, is the horse and the princess sat together, the horse family came forward to pay homage to the horse and the princess, after worshipping, then please sit in the high hall, the princess and the horse both stepped forward to worship, all the family ceremony.
After the ceremony of the princess's surrender, it was sent to the cave room, and according to folk customs, there was a banquet after the end, but in the cave room, there was no female dependents of the Liu family to accompany this layer.
At this time, Yulin could only take a breath, and the Li family had already signaled the maid to take off Yulin's crown, and said with a smile: "This crown is only worn a few times a year." If you wear it every day, it is called a headache. ”
Yulin felt a little more relaxed on her head, so she said to Li: "Thank you aunt today!" ”
"Thank you, Hugh said that it is such a great honor to be able to send the princess to marry, just say that I am related to this side!" Yulin took the tea brought by the maid and took a sip before asking, "Aunt and, and," the mother-in-law Yulin still couldn't scream, so she simply vaguely said: "Or cousin?" ”
"Mrs. Liu is my aunt, and those on the Liu family's side are naturally my cousins." Li Shi did not shy away from it, and then said: "My aunt and my cousins are both loving people. This is the Li family saying good things for the Liu family, Yulin hummed and said: "I heard Sister Yurong say that the Liu family is extremely harmonious. ”
Although the princess does not have to serve her in-laws and does not need to deal with her sisters-in-law, it is beneficial for both parties to have a harmonious relationship with her in-laws. Li's smile deepened: "It is indeed very harmonious, don't talk about the far, just say the ...... if you are close."
The Li family was still talking, and Mrs. Cheng had already walked in and said with a smile: "It's a loss that the princess of the county is here today, otherwise, I don't know what to say to the princess." Mrs. Cheng is the wife of Shoufu, and Yulin also wants to return her respect, so she got up and said with a smile: "I'm tired of Mrs. Cheng today, speaking of which, I am about the same age as your granddaughter, and what you and your granddaughter usually say, just say the same to me." ”
Mrs. Cheng smiled happily: "Princess, please sit down, although my granddaughter is about the same age as you, but in terms of knowledge, she can't compare with you." If you don't dislike it, I can let my granddaughter come over and accompany you often in the future. ”
Li couldn't help but glance at Mrs. Cheng and said, "I have met Miss Cheng several times, she is really a rare girl, Mrs. Cheng is too humble." Mrs. Cheng smiled again, and said a few words of gossip in Beijing with the Li family, these gossips are rarely heard by Yulin, seeing Yulin listening carefully, Mrs. Cheng smiled at Yulin: "It's just a few gossip, the princess is now out and down, it is not much the same as the original in the boudoir, it is inevitable that there will be some exchanges in etiquette." ”
Although the Liu family has been offended, there are many relatives in this Beijing, and now that Liu Jinsong has become a colt, the original old relatives must also start moving around again. Although Yulin already knew this fact, it was still a little novel, after all, when she was in Wu Wangfu, she didn't have to worry about these things.
Seeing that Yulin was interested, Li and Mrs. Cheng talked more. Yulin listened and thought, it turns out that the life of a folk woman and the royal daughter is so different? Talking and laughing, the maid had already come to report that the banquet outside had dispersed, and the horse was about to enter the door.
As she spoke, she heard footsteps outside, Yulin remembered what the grandmothers had said, her face couldn't help but turn red, and the footsteps stopped outside the door, this is the pony waiting for the princess's summons. Yulin tried to suppress all kinds of thoughts in her heart, and tried to calm her voice: "Pass! ”
Both Li and Madame Cheng showed relief on their faces, after all, it was not unheard of for the princess to refuse to pass on the horse on her wedding night. Whatever the reason, this kind of thing is always unpleasant.
The maid lifted the curtain and invited the horse in, Liu Jinsong walked in the door, and saw Yulin sitting there, which seemed to be different from those times. Li and Mrs. Cheng have already invited Liu Jinsong and Yulin to sit together, and they have to drink Hejiu before the two of them are finished.
The maid took the wine, looking at the pair of wine glasses tied with red silk threads, Yulin didn't go to get the wine glasses for a long time, and the Li family didn't urge, the bride was always shy. Liu Jinsong's hand had already held the wine glass, but he didn't see Yulin make a move, Liu Jinsong couldn't help but hesitate, could it be that she had other thoughts in her heart, but Liu Jinsong didn't urge.
The red candle with a high fever seemed to be a little impatient, and burst a big candle flower, this sound made Yulin pluck up her courage, stretched out her hand to pick up the wine glass, and saw her holding the wine glass, Li and Mrs. Cheng looked at each other and smiled, Liu Jinsong only felt that his heart was as happy as a flower.
After drinking Heyu wine and saying auspicious words, Li and Mrs. Cheng retreated. The remaining newlyweds and a few maids in the cave room, Yulin didn't speak, the maids didn't dare to retreat, even if Liu Jinsong was anxious and wanted to talk to Yulin, he had to wait for the maids to retreat.
Looking at Yulin's delicate face, Liu Jinsong's hands couldn't help clenching, wanting to speak but afraid of bumping into her, but if he didn't speak, could he just sit all night, you look at me and I look at you?
Yulin also knew that she should send the maid away at this time, but in this way, she had to be alone with Liu Jinsong, husband, this word Yulin is still very unfamiliar, even if she has seen him, she has not spoken well, she will be with him for the rest of her life, and sometimes she has to think about what he thinks, why does Yulin feel a little awkward?
"Princess, it's been three watches!" You can't really sit all night like this, can you? Liu Jinsong finally mustered up the courage and spoke, Yulin raised his head with a hum, this is the first time that the two look at each other, Liu Jinsong looked at his wife in front of him, and only felt that he had never seen such a beautiful woman, such a woman, an intoxicating woman.
Yulin was also a little surprised, the look in these eyes had never been seen before, so calm, so enthusiastic, so reassuring. Yulin didn't want to look away from her, and Liu Jinsong didn't want to, so the two sat opposite each other, and there was a bangzi sound outside, and the fourth watch arrived.
Hearing the sound of bangzi, Yulin remembered that it was weishenme who looked up just now, and said in a panicked voice: "It's late at night, you go down first." ”
The author has something to say: the royal marriage of a daughter is called surrender, so this is not a typo.
The wedding ceremony of the princess has been slightly different in the past dynasties, but it is more common for the horse's family to receive the national ceremony after the family ceremony. In some dynasties, the princess was honored on the wedding day, and some were the next day, so I wrote it as the day here.
These chapters are a bit boring, but I have to write them. Mask your face.
