Waiting for Xu You and them to arrive, the ox cart to welcome the relatives has stopped at the gate of the yard, a line of fifty times, all are four oxen to pull the soap wheel car, the silk rope, the white copper for the decoration, the entourage of nearly 1,000 people, the flag flying, endless, it can really be described as a flourishing moment, magnificent.

In fact, according to Gu Yun's position of being too guarded, such specifications are slightly excessive. However, marriage events, from ancient times to the present, have been like this, Zheng Xuan explained this phenomenon as "regent", which means that on special occasions such as weddings, a slight offside behavior can be allowed, and no one will really pursue it.

After the newcomer got out of the car, he saw Gu Yun wearing a jue ben, wearing a black suit, wearing a silk dress, naked shoes, wearing jade, and a saber, and he was handsome and unmatched, but unfortunately the corners of his lips were swollen and the eyebrows were black, which slightly affected the view.

Fang Sinian was curious: "What's the matter?" Does anyone in Yangzhou dare to bully Gu Taishou? ”

Xu You smiled: "This is not bullying, this is the so-called 'Lang Lang'!" ”

"Lang?"

"Getting married has always been cumbersome. In addition to the three books and six rituals stipulated in the canonical system, there are many conventions and rules. For example, the new son-in-law welcomes the relatives to the door, and after the relatives and women of the woman's family gather at the door, they all hold bamboo sticks to beat the new son-in-law for fun, and some people are killed because of this......"

"Huh?" The ugly slave covered his mouth in shock, his cute blue eyes were full of fear, and said, "So cruel? Isn't it a happy event to get married? Why do you want to beat your new son-in-law with a rod? ”

Dong Solstice hugged her and said with disdain: "Happy event? Not necessarily! Married as desired, husband and wife love, that is joy. I'm afraid that I'm only afraid of the non-person I trust, and I wash my face with tears all day long, how can I be happy? The woman's family used a cane to play the new son-in-law, which was nothing more than giving him a dismount, telling him that the woman also had to rely on, so as not to be angry, humiliated and bullied after marrying into the Lang family! But this is just an itch in the boots, it doesn't help, back to Lang's house, the courtyard is deep, even if you are really angry, what can you do except endure it silently? ”

The orientation of the winter solstice in the affairs of men and women has always been a problem, so it is very resistant to marriage. Xu You sighed: "The marriage in the Spring and Autumn Period, the house of the married woman, the candle is not extinguished for three days, and the thoughts are separated; Marry and return to the house, three days without fun, thinking of heirs. The scene is solemn and restrained, and the guests are polite, lest they behave inappropriately, and they laugh generously. And after the Eastern Han Dynasty, on the eve of marriage, there is no difference between men and women, first play the new son-in-law, and then play the bride, the new son-in-law has a rod to death, the bride has a humiliating suicide, all kinds of ugly things, the history is endless, it is indeed too much! ”

There are a lot of elites in national culture, but there are also a lot of dross, until later generations, marriage trouble is still a headache, the root cause is the Wei and Jin dynasties, the Northern and Southern Dynasties were opened, and the bad consequences caused by the collapse of etiquette and law.

However, Gu Yun only had a blue nose and swollen face, and it seemed that the girls of the women's family were merciful. It can be seen that being handsome will take advantage of it in any era.

Lu Weiyang wore a silk white skirt with purple knots, a covered bun on his head, that is, a wig, a golden emerald flower, his eyebrows were green, and his lips were dotted, and the whole person looked similar to the white wedding dress that was popular when he got married in later generations. This is also the characteristic of the wedding dress at this time, called the "white wedding dress", from the ox cart decoration to the bridal dress, almost all white. This kind of marriage custom is mainly influenced by the prosperity of metaphysics, and the people of the time pay attention to nothing, back to the basics, so the marriage in white clothes began to be popular.

Xu You thought to himself, the popularity of this thing is really a reincarnation, how many years later, young people are fashioned to Western white wedding dresses, but they don't know that thousands of years ago, this is the rest of the old ancestors' routine.

Lu Weiyang held a fan in his hand and covered his face, he didn't really see it, but he had a good figure and a beautiful body, he should be a beauty. As soon as I entered the hospital, someone immediately held a flower bucket in his hand, and scattered grains, beans, copper coins, colored fruits, grass festivals, etc., and the children cheered and scrambled for grabbing, and the onlookers shouted and tsunami, and the atmosphere became warm.

From the courtyard gate to the main hall, the ground is covered with thick felt, and it was replaced with a mat in the Song Dynasty, which is the auspicious meaning of taking the bride's feet without falling to the ground. Under the leadership of the two prime ministers, Gu Yun and Lu Weiyang walked slowly to the front of the main hall, and a small servant had already set up the incense case, and behind the case was the ancestral shrine of the Gu family. Then there are various processes such as worshipping heaven and earth, and in the end, it is the husband and wife who worship.

The worship of husband and wife originated in the middle and late Wei Dynasty and extended to Chu, but there is no conclusive conclusion. There are always people who feel that women have a low status and are not qualified to worship men, so it has caused a lot of controversy.

According to the guidance of the prime minister, Gu Yun stood in the west and Lu Weiyang stood in the east, with the women kneeling first and then rising, and the men kneeling first and getting up first. "Kneel!" The prime minister shouted.

Lu Weiyang knelt down.

"Prostrate!"

The head of the mantis is lowered, and the hands are folded on the ground.

"Kneel!"

Gu Yun lifted the hem of his robe and was about to kneel, when someone in the crowd of onlookers suddenly shouted: "Sorry!" ”

Sure enough, someone is making trouble!

A large reason for the existence of the prime minister is to deal with such an unexpected situation, and one of them asked, "Why can't you worship?" ”

"Gu Taishou is an official and has a high position, although the Lu family is from the gate valve, but after all, she is a woman, how can He De worship Gu Taishou on an equal footing?"

"When the wedding is completed, the husband and wife are of the same heart, although the woman is inferior and the man is respectful, but it does not hinder the general. Worship today, worship the case and raise eyebrows, worship each other as a guest, worship the harmony of the qinse, why can't you worship? ”

"Woman, bow down to men! Men take women as their room, women take men as their home, women have the righteousness of three subordination, and there is no special way, so the heaven of the father and the son, the day of the husband and the wife, if the sky is level with the earth, the world has long been in chaos? ”

"This ......"

The prime minister was incomprehensible, and everyone coaxed, anyway, it was not a big deal to see the excitement, and they shouted in unison: "Sorry, sorry!" ”

Seeing that it was at an impasse, the prime minister had no choice but to say to Gu Yun: "The year before last, Li Hun, the assassin of Yuezhou, married the Yan family, but also due to the obstruction of the guests, Li Hun wanted to worship but did not worship, and Lang Jun could decide for himself. ”

Gu Yun didn't care about these in his heart, he could worship or not, just to show his love for the bride and respect for the Lu family, this worship was still required. It's just that hundreds of people are on the side, and Bai has to find enough reasons to refute the other party, he is a newcomer, it is inconvenient to come forward, his eyes searched slightly, and when he saw Xu You in the crowd, the corners of his eyebrows were slightly raised, and his meaning was self-evident.

Xu You rolled his eyes, reluctantly took three steps forward, hugged his fists, and said with a smile: ""Release" said: husband and wife, the meaning of matching! Zheng Xuan's note on "The Book of Rites" also said: Qi, eat together in prison, and respect and humility together! Women and Lang Qi, so called wives, how to distinguish between respect and inferiority? "Zhou Yi" also said: Family, women are inside, men are outside, men and women are righteous, the righteousness of heaven and earth. If the bride worships today, and the Taishou does not worship......" He deliberately distorted the meaning of the word "zheng", pointed to the ups and downs of Gu Yun and Lu Weiyang's height at this time, and said: "Gentlemen, please see, isn't it that women are upright and men are not right, crooked, beautiful?" ”

Everyone laughed and shouted in unison again, "It's not beautiful! ”

Xu You bowed and stepped back.

The prime minister took the opportunity to shout: "Kneel! ”

"Prostrate!"

"Licheng!"

"Into the cave room!"

After the newlyweds enter the cave room, they have to perform the same prison ceremony, and then drink the wine of the joint house, and there is still a set of complicated rituals. But those are the secrets of the boudoir, and they have nothing to do with the guests, everyone returns to their seats, and discusses the affairs of the party with great interest, just waiting for the feast to be eaten. Xu You was still a little uneasy in his heart, so he didn't let the three of them separate, and followed him back to the house. Zhang Tong came over at the risk of being reprimanded by his eldest brother, and said to Xu You: "Weizhi, if it weren't for your eloquence, Feiqing would have lost Lu Weiyang's face today, and under the anger of other girls, I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to make a hole in the cave!" ”

Xu You sneered: "You, don't you dare to talk about Gu Taishou behind your back, beware of your tongue!" ”

Zhang Tong snorted and said: "My tongue is useless, Feiqing can take it if he wants to, anyway, there is a slight tongue, after all, we can't suffer!" ”

When Gu Xi came back from outside, Zhang Tong left with interest, Gu Xi walked to Xu You and sat down, and said in a low voice: "The plaque has been checked, and the bottom is inlaid with Xiao's unique green jade, the carving is wonderful, some years old, not a new imitation." There are also people from Lanling, although they don't recognize Xiao Ling, it can be confirmed that the Xiao family does have this person, and there are two attendants beside him. ”

He was transfigured...... Does Shuangyu know? ”

Gu Xi laughed and said, "Xiao Ling said, when I went out, in order to avoid trouble, I deliberately changed my makeup, and when I saw the head of the family, I had already washed it off by myself." In fact, there is not much difference in appearance, only slightly different, you also know that the Xiao family has too many enemies, and most of the children in the door are cautious, and it is reasonable......"

"That's my fault, why hasn't Xiao Ling come back yet, I apologize in person."

The head of the house left him to sit with him in the lobby...... Weizhi, I don't think that person is easy to get along with, you better stop provoking him! ”

Xu You nodded, his brows furrowed more and more, and he changed his words and said, "Shuangyu, can you arrange for me and Duke Lu to meet in private?" Don't alarm anyone. ”

Gu Xi was stunned for a while, didn't ask why, and said, "Yes!" Wait! ”

Gu Xi left in a hurry, and Dong Solstice asked, "Xiaolang still thinks it's inappropriate?" Xiao Ling's cards are true, and so are his followers, and the explanation of the disguise is also reasonable......"

"Makes a lot of sense!"

Xu You's eyes are deep, like an unpredictable sea. If it was not certain that Xiao Ling had a problem before, then now it is almost certain that this person has ill intentions and must have a big plan.

"The cards are real, the retinue is real, but who knows...... Is this person real? ”

Dong Zhi's body shook slightly, almost discolored, and said, "What does Xiaolang mean...... It was he who killed the real Xiao Ling, and then obtained the card, and used means to control the two followers...... He, what does he want to do? ”

"No matter what you do, it's definitely not as simple as eating and drinking!" Xu You said in a deep voice: "Qingming, if Xiao Ling harbors evil intentions, where do you think his plan will start?" ”

"It depends on how much evil he has ......"

"For example, all the nobles who will attend the wedding today ...... Clean sweep! ”
