Volume 1 The Three Worlds of Love: Tears Chapter 136 Susa's Wedding
Ren Jian carefully looked at every beautiful woman who passed by, and didn't know what the woman who was about to be assigned to Seleucus looked like.
"Dear Alexander the Great, are you sure that tomorrow's wedding will be carried out in the Persian way?"
Arestander walked from the blue-glazed palace walls, the soothsayer of Alexander's empire who had followed the fleet of Neakas back to Susa.
The wounds on his body healed inexplicably, and the crime he committed, at least in Ren Yan's opinion, he killed Ling'er, which is an unforgivable sin, but it was not unexpected, the emperor was just fine after talking to Arestander, he was still a soothsayer of the empire.
Tomorrow's wedding ceremony is in the sole responsibility of Arestander, and the Emperor is pulling the old thing to discuss the specifics.
Ren Juan looked at them indignantly, and happened to meet Seleucus's eyes, who glared at her angrily, if before, Ren Juan would have glared back, but now it is different, Ren Juan is not only not angry, but also smiled at Seleucus flatteringly.
Xuan Ye didn't understand such a Ren Juan, and whispered beside him, "Mo Jiu, do you have some handle in Seleucus's hands, or do you really like him?" ”
Ren Yan stepped on Xuanye's feet hard, "What do you think?" Can I take a fancy to him? ”
Xuan Ye touched the back of his head and replied in a low voice, "I think so, you only have the third prince in your heart, but why do you please General Seleucus, with your character, it is impossible to please others, you must have some handle in his hands." ”
Ren Juan didn't bother to pay attention to him, her mind returned to Arestander, this old thing didn't know what kind of lie he had deceived Alexander the Great, or for the Emperor, there was no reason to punish Arestand severely for killing a girl.
As a result, Ren Juan had already prepared to avenge Ling'er, and Queen Ren Juan had to take action personally, and when she recalled the White Tiger and left this life, it was the death of Arestander, but there was a "backer" behind this person, and she should try to find out before that, otherwise it would not be easy to deal with him.
"Great soothsayer, didn't you say you had something good for me?" Xuan Ye watched the great soothsayer and Alexander finish talking and leave, and hurriedly took a few steps from behind Ren Yan and stepped to the soothsayer's side.
Ren Yan looked at Xuan Ye directly, knowing that Xuan Ye had always regarded the old thing as a benefactor, but she didn't expect this kid to be so familiar with the old thing.
Secretly guessed in my heart: I don't know what ecstasy the old thing gave Xuan Ye, Xuan Ye is inexplicably close to him, what is the purpose of the old thing's this? Could it be that he wants to kill Xuan Ye, how can Xuan Ye have this ability, he is a harmless person who is nothing, and it is not worth any effort from Arestander.
Arestand was very good at disguise, and looked at Xuan Ye with a loving face, if he wasn't familiar with him, he would have thought that the soothsayer was really charitable.
"Come with me, I'll get everything ready for you." Aristan pulled Xuanye and turned to leave.
Ren Jian hurriedly stopped, "Xuanye, come back, you are not allowed to contact strangers." ”
Xuan Ye turned around and smiled with a smile on his face, "Sister, the great soothsayer is not a stranger, didn't I say it, thanks to the great soothsayer taking care of me during your absence, otherwise you may not find me now, the soothsayer has good things for me, and I will be back in a while." After saying that, he walked away without looking back.
"You won't listen to my sister's words, okay, then don't come back to me." Ren Juan shouted angrily.
Hearing the conversation between the two sisters, the Emperor laughed and walked over from the palace wall, "Our Nine Daughters of Moer, in the end, is still a woman, and must still be holding a grudge against Ling'er," the Emperor glanced at Seleucus, and the two smiled heartily, "The great soothsayer said, it was a pure misunderstanding that day, it was a demon girl who suddenly appeared in the cabin and killed your Ling'er, he came out to stop it, but I don't know what spell the demon girl used, so that Ling'er thought that the soothsayer killed her, you and Arestand are both soothsayers of the empire, It is up to you to ask for oracles from the gods of the empire, and this king hopes that you can put aside your old suspicions and reconcile for the sake of the empire. Alexander looked at Ren Yan gently, and his bright eyes made people look warm.
Ren Jian always looked at the emperor's gaze, and then she would smile and think silently in her heart, just pretend that she didn't care about everything, and settle accounts after the autumn.
Now as long as the emperor is happy, he doesn't have long.
The central hall of the palace of Susa accommodates nearly 1,000 people, plus other courtyards outside the colonnade, the whole Susa accommodates nearly 10,000 people, the huge wedding scene, surrounded by flowers, drums and pianos, the ground is covered with gorgeous Persian carpets, veiled Persian women walk along the colonnade to their respective grooms, sit opposite their respective grooms, and the grooms take the bride's hand and kiss it.
Alexander the Great wore the purple-robed royal uniform of the Persian collar and led his generals and soldiers to complete the established procedures according to the command of Arestander, and the joyful events of life were the first to be filled with flowers and candles, this sentence was not wrong at all, the entire palace hall was full of smiling faces, and the hall was filled with joyful laughter.
Ren Jian sat in the hall, eating the wine alone, looking at all kinds of joy in front of her, even Xuan Ye was drinking a glass of wine with his little liver, pitiful for her Chu Yuan God of War alone, and his prince was still guarding Kunlun Xu.
The deafening wedding joy shook her eardrums, drinking alone, a line of tears quietly falling, not sad or lonely, but happy, her first best friend finally had a partner in this life, Alexander for the "Prince of Zhedan" as a matchmaker, pointing out to him a lifetime of marriage.
Historical records record that after the death of the Emperor, there was only one couple who grew old - Seleucus and his wife, and Seleucus loved only one woman in his life was Apama, the daughter of the Bactrian nobleman Spitaminis, whom the Emperor pointed out to him at the wedding.
After the death of Alexander the Great, most of the Macedonian soldiers who married their Oriental wives at the Susa wedding had to abandon them and return to their Macedonian homes or continue to fight in their respective battlefields.
Even after Seleucus ascended to the throne, he did not remarry, and it was not until the death of Epama in his later years that he married his second wife, Stratonicole.
For the kings of that era, to be able to achieve such infatuation, their love is enough to last forever.
Ren Juan is happy, Prince Zhedan can marry a wife and have children in this life, how can she not be happy for Zhedan?
Queen Juan held the wine glass, staggered to Seleucus's side, raised the wine glass high, and looked at Seleucus with intoxicated eyes, "Zhedan, Ren Juan respects you!" Ren Jian wishes you the love of husband and wife in this life, and grow old together. Without waiting for Seleucus to respond, Ren Jian had already drunk it all, and her eyes were hazy with tears.
Seleucus glared at Ren Yan angrily, his face flushed, "How many best friends do you have?" Zhedan? Ren Jiao? Our pre-imperial maid is really experienced! ”
Ren Juan looked at Seleucus with a smile, like an elder looking at an angry child, not only was he not angry, but he loved it very much, "Look at you, you always keep a straight face with me, you are not like this." Sister-in-law," Ren Juan turned to the veiled Appama next to her, "Sister-in-law, I respect you, I wish you and General Sai a lifetime of hand in hand and love." ”
Apama smiled lightly and raised her glass in return, "I have long heard that the women in front of the royal palace are among the women, and when I see them today, I like them." "This Apama is even more bold than Ren Yan, and she toasts to the bottom.
"I also salute the former daughter, I wish you to find your own Langjun as soon as possible." Ren Jian shook her head, such a particle is not common, you must know that Ren Yan's identity is a royal female ritual, although women can have men in Greece, but they rarely get married.
Ren Jian stood up straight, looked directly into Apama's eyes, veiled, except for the fair skin, only these beautiful eyes could be seen, Ren Jian looked left and right, and even almost pasted to Apama's face, "You? Why do I see that your eyes seem to see yourself? ”
"Sister, you've drunk too much, I'll help you go back to the dormitory." Xuan Ye jumped out of nowhere and dragged Ren Yan away from the wedding scene.
Seleucus glared at Ren Juan angrily, but Apama looked at Seleucus with a smile and puzzled, "This person is very interesting!" ”
Seleucus was silent, and poured himself several glasses.
Apama sat beside Seleucus and looked at him lovingly, and the handsome and handsome lady did not love any bride, although it was the first time they met, it could be seen from her eyes that her eyes were full of him.
"Generals, take your beautiful bride back to your bedchamber."
As soon as Alexander gave the order, the hall of thousands of people immediately became in an uproar, and the groom, who had been waiting for a long time, strode towards his dwelling with his bride.
This unprecedented wedding, attended by nearly 10,000 people, more than 80 generals took the lead in marrying Persian women, of course, who the emperor had already arranged, Alexander himself married Darius's daughter Stantra and another nobleman's daughter Parisatis, as well as the first wife Roxana who had been married in Bactria before, Alexander married a total of three wives; Hephaestion married another daughter of Darius; It is worth mentioning that the Emperor married Mentor (Barcin's first Rhodes husband) and Balcin's daughter to the naval commander Niacas, and the other Guards officers Ptolemy, Cosimachus, and Perdix all married the daughters of the nobles.
The white-haired Chletus was not in Susa when he was escorting the veteran back to Macedonia, Cassander returned to the side of the regent Antipater, and the one-eyed general Antigonus was also out to quell the rebellion, and if he might be able to be the bridegroom again today.
At the wedding, Alexander bestowed a golden crown on the generals and his close associates, the highest honor the young king had given them.
Ten years of war, Alexander the Great did his best, everything that could be given to the soldiers did not hesitate to give them, of course, the generals, especially the friends he grew up with since childhood, have dedicated all their youth and pride to the empire for more than ten years, and have made great contributions to the empire. Defeat all opponents, no matter what they are.
