After the unanimous decision of Wang Jia, Wang Yun, Huangfu Song, Ma Teng, and a group of strategists and generals, the wedding of Wang Li and Huangfu Ling'er was held at the same time as Zhao Yun.

And our two bridegrooms, except for marrying the bride, have nothing to do with them.

On the twenty-sixth day of the first year of Yong'an, it was sunny and it was appropriate to marry.

In the early morning, the sky is as blue as washing, and the warm winter sun shines down from the gaps in the tall national acacia in Chang'an City, forming a bundle of thick or thin golden pillars of light, shining on the light gauze mist floating in the shade of the trees, swirling, like a dream.

Such a bright morning, migratory birds do not want to be too noisy, lest they disturb the tranquility of winter, but the city of Chang'an is early to clean the street, outside the palace, behind the eaves of the Xiangguo Mansion are pasted with big happy words, a big red lantern swaying left and right, merchants, scholars, hawkers, officials, soldiers have taken to the streets, a commotion.

Today, former general Wang Li and Zhendong general Zhao Yun got married. The brides are Huangfu Ling'er, the daughter of Huangfu Song, the assassin of Yongzhou, and Ma Yunlu, the daughter of Ma Teng, the assassin of Liangzhou.

Xu Shen of the Eastern Han Dynasty recorded in "Shuowen Jie Zi": Marriage, the wife is also a family. Ceremony, marrying a woman to dusk. The woman is also yin, so it is said to be married.

Therefore, starting from the first wedding of the Zhou Dynasty, along the Tang, Song, Ming and Qing dynasties, the weddings were held at dusk.

However, the wedding of the Han Dynasty was a little different from that of the Tang Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty paid attention to "urging makeup but fan", and the costumes were also male red and female green, but the Ming Dynasty welcomed the bride in a big red robe and wore a phoenix crown.

At this time, the wedding is still in the weekly system, and the lottery, asking for names, Najib, Nazheng, invitation, welcome, ceremony, and merger are all indispensable.

Therefore, under the auspices of Wang Jia and Wang Yun, the Wang family quickly invited the most famous matchmaker Su and Ma matchmaker in Chang'an City to go to Huangfu's house and Ma's house respectively, and completed the steps of Nacai, asking for names, Najib, Nazheng, and asking for the date within a few days, just waiting for today's personal welcome.

It was still early, and the two generals greeted the guests and friends in the mansion, while the two brides-to-be were temporarily placed in the Jingzhao Mansion on Shangguan Front Street.

Ma Yunlu smiled, while Huangfu Ling'er stood aside, looking at the peach trees in the courtyard in a quiet daze.

It has been seven years since Guanghe met Hongfengdu for the first time in the sixth year of Guanghe, and Huangfu Ling'er has changed from a twenty-eight-year-old girl to a beautiful woman with the fragrance of peach and plum.

At this time, the pretty woman stood in the courtyard, quietly staring at a peach tree in the courtyard, there were no peach blossoms on the peach tree, not even flower bones, only some branches hanging horizontally or obliquely on the trunk.

It's a pity that these peach branches can't provoke the pretty woman's mind at all, even if she breaks the peach branches, she can't become a wangfu stone.

The pretty woman had no choice but to wander out of the world.

The first acquaintance of Hongfengdu, the Mingxin of Shilangfu, the golden knife under Yangzhai City, the wind and snow falling flowers and dances in Xindu, and the reunion of Mengjinguan and Yushan respectively, the scenes reappear in my mind one by one as if time flows.

During the period, the joy, sadness, parting and reunion constantly impacted Ling'er's thoughts, and Ruyu's face also frowned slightly with the change of the scene, sometimes the corners of the mouth rose, sometimes Qiong's nose wrinkled slightly, and sometimes her smiling face was like a flower.

Time always flies in contemplation, the time of the day passes quickly, and the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the eaves of Jingzhao Mansion, as if lightly draped in a layer of dark yellow tulle, and the red candles, happy characters, and red ribbons in the house are intertwined.

When Wang Li and Zhao Yun came to the courtyard, Zhang Han had already helped Ling'er and Ma Yunlu to get up.

Zhang Han is the Huangfu wife personally went to Chang'an City Zhangtai Street near the giant Jia Zhang's family to invite the "good wife", the Zhang family has been in business for generations, although the status is not high, but the food and clothing are abundant, four generations in the same house, the old lady of the Zhang family, sons and daughters-in-law, grandchildren, and even great-grandchildren, great-granddaughters are all there.

Even after the Liangzhou Rebellion and Dong Zhuo's relocation of the capital, the Zhang family never lost a single person. Although the Han family is nearly sixty years old, her muscles and bones are very tough, and her face is cute, and she is a real "good wife".

"It's coming, it's coming!"

With a shout, the gate of Jingzhao Mansion suddenly opened, and the helpers at the door had already rushed in, grinning and laughing. Outside the door, there was a beautiful sound of suona, gongs and drums, neighing horses, the sound of wheels, and the sound of everyone talking, mixed together, weaving a beautiful welcome song outside the door.

Wang Li and Zhao Yun were dressed in dark clothes, each holding a pair of copper geese in their hands, and accompanied the greeting group to the lobby under the leadership of Zhike, and respectfully handed over the copper goose in their hands to Zhike, and then Zhike handed it to Huangfu Song and Ma Teng respectively.

Zhike shook the long whip in his hand and shouted: "A whip sounds: the bride of Jiaoke stands in front of the hall,

With the old white head like a new look! ”

This is the whip ceremony, which is inherited from the Qin Jiao Zi ceremony, which is said to be only a ritual only in Yongzhou and Liangzhou.

Wang Li and Zhao Yun didn't care about the difference between whipping and kissing the child, they just looked at the side of the hall excitedly, Ling'er and Ma Yunlu were already dressed in Xuan clothes, wearing a hijab woven of black silk and satin, and under the support of Xi Po, the jade step shook gently, and walked gracefully to the front of the hall.

Although he didn't see his stunning face, the graceful figure under the dark hijab on that side was unique.

"Two whips: the great gift of achieving Jiaozi, in the arms of the boy in the coming year!" Zhike shouted again, and the long whip snapped.

Xi Po helped Ling'er and Ma Yunlu to Huangfu Song, Mrs. Huangfu and Ma Teng, Huangfu Song poured a glass of wine and handed it to Ling'er, and Mrs. Huangfu personally inserted a hairpin and tassel for Ling'er.

Ma's mother was still in Liangzhou, and Ma Teng was a big and rough man, so she had to learn from Huangfu Song and Huangfu's wife, and clumsily inserted hairpins into Ma Yunlu, which caused everyone to laugh.

Ling'er and the two looked at the bright wine, and the tears couldn't stop dripping, stirring up hops.

"Mother! Awn! The two brides could no longer suppress the joy and sadness in their hearts, and suddenly hugged Huangfu Song, Huangfu Lady and Ma Teng and cried bitterly.

Zhike flicked the whip again, and shouted three times: "Three whips: Now the surname is crowned as the king, don't forget to have a high hall when you get married!" Now the surname is Zhao, don't forget your father's old age when you get married! ”

……

"Worship heaven and earth!"

"Second worship high hall!"

"Husband and wife worship each other!"

At dusk, in a burst of noise, Huangfu Ling'er and Ma Yunlu finally walked into the Prime Minister's Mansion with the welcoming procession.

Under the witness of relatives and friends, the two couples completed the Wo Yu ceremony, the same prison ceremony, the untying of the knot ceremony, and the hair ceremony, after drinking the two halves of the gourd, and the two brides personally lost a strand of hair and the groom's hair tightly knotted together, and then walked into their respective cave rooms.

The bride is gone, and the two bridegrooms begin to be happy and miserable.

The prime minister's mansion has begun to be noisy, and today there is no lord and general Zhendong, only two groom officials. Therefore, whether it was the strategists Guo Jia, Xun You and others, or the generals Zhang Liao, Xu Huang and others, they all stepped forward with a bottle of wine the size of a fist.

There is a great tendency not to overturn the two of them and vow not to give up!

The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return once he is gone! Wang Li and Zhao Yun looked at each other and smiled bitterly, rolled up their sleeves and fought with everyone to guess and fight, throwing pots to make fu, so it was not lively.

"In the past, Yuan Ang admonished Emperor Xiaowen: respect and humility are orderly, then the upper and lower are harmonious. Wenhe, the lord mingles with everyone, this approach is obviously unreasonable, why is it easier to win the hearts of gentlemen and generals! Li on the side picked up his wine glass and greeted Jia Xu.

Jia Xu took a sip gently, his eyes closed slightly, and a light was fleeting: "If you treat me as a countryman, I will repay you as a countryman." If you treat me with sincerity, I will repay it with all my heart. The majesty of the past, the easy-going of today, one relaxation, and the way of civil and martial arts! Childish, if you want to fully integrate into the lord's command, I'm afraid you will have to learn from Gao Boxun! ”

Jia Xu looked at Li Nu, and Li looked in the hall, only to see Gao Shun, a person who is usually innocent and dignified, and is not good at drinking, is fighting with Wang Li. Hurriedly picked up the wine glass and walked towards Wang Li and Zhao Yun.

When I turned around halfway through, I saw Jia Xu closing his eyes and falling asleep!

Until three o'clock in the hour, the Prime Minister's Mansion was noisy for two or three hours in the congratulations, persuasion and fist swings of the guests who came and went, and finally the song ended, and all the guests who sent relatives, welcomed relatives and congratulated them had left the Prime Minister's Mansion with a full meal and drink.

The red lantern outside the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion is still floating in the night breeze, exuding a red light, laying a faint glow on the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Wang Li and Zhao Yun intuitively felt that they were exhausted after a wedding, but thinking that there was still the flower-like bride in the bedroom, their hearts were warm, and they didn't care about laughing at each other, so they immediately parted ways and hurriedly walked to their respective cave rooms.

Gently pushed open the door, and saw the red candles burning in the bedroom, happy words high, Ling'er sat quietly on the edge of the bed.

The waterfall-like green silk has been lightly gathered into a bun, with a peacock hosta and peony golden hairpin inserted on the left and right sides of the head, wearing a black robe, embroidered with a pair of pairs of mandarin ducks on the gold edge, the face is lightly smeared with rouge, the lips are red, the willow eyebrows and apricot eyes, the cheeks are slightly red, and it looks particularly quiet and beautiful under the candlelight.

Wang Li sighed for a while, from today onwards, he will be a family person, separated from here

In the time and space of thousands of years, there will finally be people who breathe and share the same fate with themselves.

Different from the deep blood relationship of my mother, this beautiful girl will grow old with her for a lifetime, and that feeling is full and happy, and it is also wonderful.

Walking into the room, seeing that Ling'er didn't dare to raise his head, Wang Li simply picked up a piece of pastry on the desk and walked slowly to the bed, suddenly felt that Ling'er's body was a little stiff, and couldn't help but smile in his heart, holding Ling'er's Qianqianyu hand and said softly: "Ling'er!" Are you hungry, do you want me to have some more snacks with you? ”

Ling'er raised her head at this time, and saw that Wang Li had already held a piece of dim sum and handed it to her mouth, and couldn't help but fly a red glow on her cheeks, and with a sigh, she took the dim sum in Wang Li's hand and put it in her mouth, chewing it slowly, like a kitten, cute and coquettish.

As if feeling Wang Li's scorching gaze, the red glow on Ling'er's face became more and more red, just like the delicate good spot on the table, Wang Li was salivating and his index finger moved.

Ling'er finally finished eating, and the night was finally deep, and the two figures gradually approached in front of the window lattice, blending into a single figure.

"Poof!"

I don't know which little wild cat stepped on the corner of the wall, or the lights in the wick exploded, and the window lattice was pitch black, only the lantern outside the window still continued to spread the red warm glow to the courtyard wall through the gap between the doors.

……

When the Tang Dynasty poet Zhu Qingyu was in the imperial examination, he once gave a poem to Zhang Ji of the Ministry of Water Langzhong "Recently Tested on the Water Department of Zhang", the poem cloud: "The red candle was stopped in the cave room last night, and I will worship my aunt in front of Xiaotang." Makeup asked her husband in a low voice, and the thrush was not deep or shallow. ”

In the poem, Zhu Qingyu portrayed the nervous and shy appearance of a new daughter-in-law when she wanted to visit her mother-in-law in the morning, in fact, Zhu Qingyu just wanted to ask Zhang Ji whether his work was in line with the examiner's mind through the way of the scroll, which was a special means of going through the back door at that time, and the real boudoir thrush could not be beaten.

I don't know if Zhu Qingyu finally painted his wife's eyebrows, and I don't know if Zhao Yun is painting thrushes to Ma Yunlu at this time.

However, Wang Li was giving Ling'er a thrush at this time.

The early morning breeze gently blew on the windowsill, Wang Li sat on the windowsill with a calm face, enjoying a rare peace, looking at Ling'er opposite, the eyebrow pencil in his hand fell on Ling'er's eyebrows as lightly as a paintbrush.

"Husband!" Ling'er glanced at Wang Li coquettishly and said, "Don't make trouble, Ling'er will go to serve her aunt later." ”

"It's not a fuss for my husband. Didn't Zhang Chang say it: the joy of the boudoir, there are those who are too thrushed. The corners of Wang Li's mouth were lightly raised, and he lightly tapped the eyebrow pencil again, and after looking at it carefully, he only felt that Ling'er's eyebrows were like a crescent moon, so he put the eyebrow pencil on the desk and smiled, "The joy of the boudoir, how can the gift of husband and wife be regarded as trouble?" ”

The Zhang Chang in Wang Li's mouth is Jing Zhaoyin during the Xuan Emperor period of the Western Han Dynasty.

It is said that Mrs. Zhang Chang had an injury to the corner of his eyebrows when he was young, so he had to give his wife a thrush every day before clocking in to work. Later, Emperor Xuan asked him about this and replied, "In the boudoir, there is no more private husband and wife than a thrush." ”

Later, the good deeds called Zhang Chang's thrush, Xiangru stealing jade, Han Shou's stealing incense and Shen Yue's slimming waist as the four great romantic events in ancient times.

Of course, Ling'er also knew this allusion, felt the strong love in Lang Jun's heart, glanced at Wang Li and said: "Ling'er knows the heart of the husband, but the husband is my Han Dynasty ruling Jinwu, a former general, and a world-famous hero, how can he indulge in the way of this daughter?" ”

Wang Li laughed, spread his hands, and was about to say another two words, when he suddenly heard a rush of broken footsteps outside the window, "General Yu, the four gentlemen Gongda, Fengxiao, Wen Yuan, and the generals are asking to see each other!" ”

All the advisors and generals came together? Wang Li pushed open the window and looked at the soldiers in the courtyard, frowned lightly and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Zhang Miao, Chen Gongying, Lu Bu and Liu Xie entered Yanzhou, and Liu Xie re-proclaimed himself emperor in Yanzhou, and the year name was renewed!"

A high-pitched voice sounded, shaking the branches and leaves in the courtyard, and a Chinese climbing bird was startled, spread its wings and flew in the courtyard for a long time.

ps: The whip ceremony is not made up for the eagle, I originally wanted to write about the Tang Dynasty's makeup but fanned, I always feel that it is the most flavorful wedding. But it doesn't make sense, so I simply changed it to a whip salute, which can be regarded as a big little easter egg for readers.

"Sword Pointing at Chang'an" has come to an end for the time being, and Changge will turn a new page. In the new chapter, Yingfei will focus more on the heroism, freedom, tenderness and loneliness of the children of the rivers and lakes.
