Today is the wedding day of the princess set by the Empress Dowager, which adds a bit of brilliant color to the already lively Jinling City in the jubilant New Year.

The eldest princess's marriage was already huge, and now that the princess of Liao is also going to hold a wedding at the same time, this gesture is even more sufficient.

What is ten miles of red makeup, that is less, Jinling City from the east gate to the west gate is twenty miles long, the main road through the east and west cities is arranged with various colors of ribbons early, and the winter is decorated into a colorful appearance.

The person sitting in the Jiaozi today should have been Jin Ling'er, but she had already given up the once-in-a-lifetime gorgeous ceremony to Qiaoqiao.

She first dragged Song Beiyun up from the quilt and began to dress him up.

"Wait a while, you have to be more energetic, but don't let people see the flaws." While helping Song Beiyun sort out today's wedding dress, her meticulous appearance was funny.

"Who's going to put on your makeup?"

"Do you need someone else for such a thing?" Pretty eyebrows raised slightly: "I have prepared it a long time ago." ”

Song Beiyun was a little sour in this sentence, because it was reasonable that this wedding should belong to the pretty one, not let her go through the motions with other people's names.

But even so, she still treats it with twelve points of enthusiasm, the more she is like this, the more Xiao Song is wronged for her, but the root of this grievance comes from herself.

He couldn't even say a word of comfort.

"Pretty guys."

"Huh?" Quietly helped Xiao Song comb his hair while replying, "You don't have to move." ”

"This wedding belongs to the princess during the day, and I will give you a fire tree silver flower at night!"

"What's that?"

"Don't ask, you'll know then." Xiao Song laughed: "I promise that Jin Ling'er can talk to you for the rest of your life." ”

Although Qiaoqiao listened to it, although her mouth was disgusted, but from between her eyebrows, there was great joy, seeing such a pretty, Xiao Song always had some conscience comfort.

The makeup for Xiao Song lasted until the fourth watch, and then it was time to dress up, her dress was very complicated, because the eldest princess was married, so just a set of clothes weighed nearly 20 kilograms, a set of phoenix crowns had a weight of more than ten catties, and there were gold collars, hanging ornaments, bracelets, etc., which was almost ten catties.

There is also an exaggerated red wedding dress, which can be said to be the product of the peak of the ancient handicraft industry, all the embroidery on the outside of the clothes is embroidered with gold silk, the value of this wedding dress alone is enough to buy a house in the capital, and it is not a layer, the pattern on each layer of the three-layer wedding dress is not the same.

It's tedious, complicated, expensive, and tiring to look at. But even so, when Pretty put on this set and began to be sorted out by the princess's maid, even if she couldn't even move for half an hour, she didn't complain at all, but looked happy.

After the clothes are sorted out, the next step is makeup, which is also very strange, because many of the customs of the Great Song Dynasty today are following the pre-Tang Dynasty, especially at weddings.

As far as Xiao Song's aesthetics are concerned, this thing looks like **, which looks very weird, but he doesn't dare to talk nonsense on this happy day, and he will really scold. After all, Qiaoqiao is a native of this era, and there is nothing wrong with accepting the customs of this era logically.

Just like before Miao Yan didn't leave, when the two of them chatted, Xiao Song asked Miao Yan why his behavior and thoughts would be closer and closer to the scholars of this era, and the answer given by Miao Yan was very interesting and meaningful, she said at the time, "If you go to a traditional state-owned enterprise after graduating from university, you will also change from a high-spirited teenager to a bastard who is a monk for a day and hits the clock for a day after ten years, not to mention that you have lived in this specific era for more than ten years."

Now that I think about it, it seems that this is indeed the case, many things in this era are contrary to Song Beiyun's original cognition, but cognition is cognition, logic is logic, and the two are not in conflict, and he feels that extremely bizarre things are exactly what people are accustomed to in this era, just as he feels that the things he is accustomed to happen to are also unreasonable things for people in this era.

As a person under the great waves of the times, he can become a trendsetter but it is difficult to become the great wave itself, which he still has a very clear understanding of himself.

By the time Qiaoqiao finished her makeup, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and the car that picked up people outside the princess's mansion had arrived, and the people specially arranged by the Ministry of Rites all looked energetic, blowing and playing gongs and drums. Scholarly

The surrounding area has long been full of people who watch the excitement, and the royal etiquette will never be stingy, all kinds of small gifts wrapped in silk and satin have been thrown out, which may be filled with some food and some change, all of which are a good fortune, many people will snatch this small gift bag home to the child to try to have an auspicious fortune.

When she walked out, the people around her knelt together, and then the official of the Ministry of Rites gave a high "reward", and many boys and girls began to distribute the gifts in the basket to the crowd of onlookers.

Most of the things here are more valuable, but no one can guess what they are, anyway, anyone who can touch the hard guy will poke and poke and poke and smile, and the children are even more happy to open the cloth bag to show off what they have gotten.

Anyway, everyone is happy.

The sound of firecrackers sounded, and the ceremonial driver slowly began to march down the street, followed by three horse-drawn carriages, loaded with valuable candy wrapped in oiled paper, and next to them stood two small men who kept throwing "joy candy" into the crowd on both sides of the road.

This one was conceived by Xiao Song, these sugars are rare objects in the Great Song Dynasty, and in terms of current output, the value of these three cars of candy can be exchanged for a princess from Da Liao.

But he doesn't care, these sugars and the three carts of candy of the princess of Liao are all in Xiao Song's pocket, after all, on this kind of happy day, it is only right that everyone is happy together, what kind of money is not money, vulgar!

The sweet sugar cubes were in their mouths, and the whole street was filled with the sweet taste, and the happiest were the children who were bouncing around, chasing the princess's joy while singing their own smooth words in a crisp children's voice, and clapping their hands at the joy of the ride.

"It's coming, it's coming! Hurry up! ”

When the princess arrives at the door of her house, whether it is a house or a store, she will pour wine into the rice, and then throw the sweet wine rice in front of the frame with her hands.

It is said that this is the most noble blessing for the bride in some places in the south, because neither rice nor wine is something that can be wasted casually, but now it is used on the body of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the Great Song Dynasty, but no one will say the first half of the sentence.

Not to mention anything else, the "princess fund" alone has benefited more than 100,000 million, and there are many people here who were displaced to Luzhou at that time, if these people did not have a princess, I am afraid they would have turned into dry bones.

This life-saving grace can be compared to a mere bowl of wine and rice.

Compared with the excitement of the marriage of the princess of the larger Song Kingdom, the princess of Liao is a little deserted, but fortunately, Xiao Song is a kind person, he does not favor one over the other, the posture of the two sides is equal, but the princess of Liao lacks this noble spontaneous etiquette.

From east to west, the city is full of laughter, and in the laughter is filled with the intoxicating aroma of sweet wine, Jinling City today is like the second year, many large restaurants with rows of noodles even take advantage of this celebration today for some specific groups of people for free.

For example, the drunken immortal building in the east of the city, as long as it is an ancient old man, it is free today. For example, the Piaoxiang Pavilion in the south of the city announced that today's babies in the family for 100 days will eat for free. For example, Tianshangfang in the west of the city, such a high-end place, today as long as you enter the door and say two auspicious words, you can get a dish home for free.

The whole city celebrates, and the smell of saltpeter from firecrackers permeates the sky over Jinling, making it look like a veil of light.

"My wedding isn't that magnificent, is it?"

Zhao Xing stood on the palace wall and looked at the carnival of Jinling City today, he spoke a little sourly, after all, his wedding day was hasty, and there was no such prosperity at all.

Doesn't this show that under the rule of the government, the country and the people are strong, prosperous and healthy? The old slave still remembers that when the official family succeeded to the throne, all kinds of wastes were waiting to be revived, and my Great Song Dynasty was in a downswing, but now it is the lights of thousands of homes, singing and dancing. The old Wang next to him hurriedly stepped forward and flattered: "It's a good thing, official." ”

Lao Wang is here to top Xiaoyu today, because Xiaoyu has to be ordered to guard the safety duty of the princess's wedding ceremony, so Lao Wang came here in a temporary shift, but according to the rules, he can't enter the harem anymore, and can only accompany Zhao Xing in the front hall.

"You old thing has lived in Song Gou's house for a few days, and you haven't learned anything else, but you have learned to run around with your mouth." Zhao Xing sneered: "But I didn't expect my sister to have such a reputation among the people." ”

Lao Wang didn't know how to answer this, he just lowered his head and smiled, but Zhao Xing waved his hand indifferently: "Is the dog thing ready?" Don't show me my feet. ”

"Back to the official's house, he is ready, he has boarded the horse and is ready to meet Her Royal Highness the princess in the middle street."

"Well, but my eyelids are jumping, so I don't have to have some accidents."
