Chapter 749: The Wedding Vow
"Congratulations to Brother Mo!"
Kong Huisuo bowed his hand, he was the representative sent by Confucianism, and bowed his hand to Merton to congratulate him.
"Brother Kong is polite, if there is no good hospitality, please Haihan." Merton returned the salute.
Kong Huisuo was not polite, but walked directly to Qin Huaiyu and the others.
"I thought you weren't coming?" Qin Huaiyu said dissatisfied.
Kong Huisuo smiled bitterly: "Brother Mo's wedding, how can I not be there." ”
Confucianism and Mojia are both hundreds of schools, although the two families have always contradicted, but the etiquette on the surface is naturally not less, no one in Confucianism is willing to come, only to send Kong Huisuo to the scene.
"The auspicious time has come!"
With a loud shout from Fubo, the audience was silent, and everyone knew that this grand wedding had finally reached the most critical moment, and they were married in the church.
At this moment, in the lobby, the space has already been vacated, leaving only Merton and Princess Changle, Merton held Princess Changle's hand in the center of the hall, and suddenly everyone's eyes were focused on the two.
"Below, there is the officiant Sun Simiao, the doctor, and Han Zheng, the witness." Fauber said loudly.
"The officiant, the witness?" Many guests were stunned.
This has never appeared in the Tang Dynasty wedding, but it does not hinder everyone's understanding, the officiant is the person who presides over the wedding, and the witness is the person who holds the marriage certificate for the married man and woman, and Sun Simiao is a doctor, Han Zheng is a legalist, and the status of the two is extremely respectful, highly respected, and it is not rude to preside over the marriage of Merton and Princess Changle.
"I'm used to seeing a lot of weddings, and it's the first time I've attended the Mo family's wedding, and it seems that I have a lot of new ideas." Many guests were surprised and couldn't help but look at it with interest.
Sun Simiao and Han Zheng jointly came to the stage and gestured around.
Han Zheng said loudly: "Old man Han Zheng, entrusted by the man, as the witness of this wedding, this is the marriage certificate of Merton and Princess Changle, but you all know that the new household marriage law has been added to the principle of mutual consent, which is promoted by the groom in front of him." ”
Suddenly, many people burst into good-natured laughter, after all, the incident at that time was known all over the city, and everyone naturally knew.
Han Zheng said solemnly: "Since this is the case, then I will personally ask for you, Groom Merton, are you willing to marry the woman in front of you?" Love her and be faithful to her, whether she is poor, sick or disabled, until she dies. ”
After Han Zheng finished speaking, everyone immediately fell silent, asking each other like this, it is no less than making an oath in it, if you violate it, you should be blamed by relatives and friends, and let the husband and wife admit whether they are willing or not, naturally they are not allowed to do things that both parties are unwilling to, everyone nodded secretly, and their hearts couldn't help but be a little more solemn about this wedding.
"I do!" Merton said without hesitation.
"Good!"
Immediately everyone applauded.
In fact, it stands to reason that what Merton advocates is a Chinese-style wedding, and he does not intend to add such a vow to the later generations, but when he found that even if the household marriage law has changed, the freedom of marriage in the Tang Dynasty is still very low and very low.
"Bride Li Lizhen, are you willing to marry this man? Love Him and be faithful to Him, whether he is poor, sick or disabled, until he dies. Han Zheng looked at Princess Changle again and asked.
"I do!" Under the red hijab, the firm voice of Princess Changle came.
"Oh!" Suddenly, the cheers of the guests resounded through the Mo Mansion.
Han Zheng nodded and said: "The wedding of the bride and groom has the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, the two parties voluntarily become husband and wife, hereby I announce that the wedding of Modon and Li Lizhen is in line with the marriage law of the Tang Dynasty, and the marriage is legal, I wish the two newlyweds a hundred years of happiness." ”
Immediately, the audience applauded, and this wedding gave them a lot of surprises.
Han Zheng bowed and retreated, but he couldn't calm down for a long time, and couldn't help but think of the previous theory of Merton's people's daily use, Merton's wedding invited him to be a witness to prove that their marriage was legal, this is not the use of the people's daily use!
After Han Zheng retired, Sun Simiao stepped forward to the stage and said loudly: "The old man Sun Simiao has seen all the guests, today is the wedding day of the centennial wedding between Modon and Changle Princess Li Lizhen, I am entrusted by the groom to preside over the wedding, first of all, congratulations to the two newlyweds on their 100th year of good union, and express a warm welcome to your presence. ”
Sun Simiao has already lived a long life, so he has naturally seen too many weddings, and just a few words made the atmosphere of the audience extremely hot.
".................., let us conclude by wishing the couple once again as I announce the official opening of the chapel." Sun Simiao said loudly.
Princess Changle on the side was suddenly extremely nervous, and couldn't help but pull Merton on the side.
Merton whispered, "Wait for what I do, you can do it." ”
Princess Changle under the hijab nodded reassuringly, the tension in her heart eased slightly, but she still couldn't help but feel uneasy in her heart, before getting married, she made up a lot of marriage processes to avoid panic, but all her preparations were in vain, and it was very different from today's wedding, which made her a little confused.
Seeing the two newcomers standing still, Sun Simiao took a deep breath and said, "Worship heaven and earth!" ”
"Worship heaven and earth?" Everyone couldn't help but be stunned, this is an unprecedented statement, before that, husband and wife were married by both parties, and never worshiped heaven and earth.
"Is it the unique etiquette of the Mo family?" Everyone was puzzled, but the world in this era is extremely mysterious, and worshipping heaven and earth does not make people feel inappropriate, but makes people's eyes shine.
Sun Simiao on the side couldn't help but sigh in his heart, when he saw the process of the main marriage for the first time, he couldn't help but be amazed by this process of worshipping heaven and earth!
Merton and Princess Changle solemnly bowed down, this worship, heaven and earth as evidence, and the two became husband and wife from then on.
"Second worship high hall!" Sun Simiao shouted again.
Although Merton's parents died young, there is a tablet of Morton's husband and wife in the center of the lobby.
Merton and the others bowed solemnly again.
"Husband and wife worship each other!" Sun Simiao drank again.
Everyone nodded slightly, most weddings in this era are husband and wife worshipping each other, but the Mo family's wedding has added one worship to heaven and earth, and two worship to the high hall, which is simply a stroke of genius, and it is even more grand out of thin air.
Merton and Princess Changle turned to face each other, and the two bowed down at the same time, and this worship, the friendship between husband and wife lasted a lifetime.
"Licheng! Send it to the cave room! ””
Sun Simiao said solemnly, and the audience immediately cheered.
As Merton led Princess Changle into the new house carefully prepared for Princess Changle, the entire Mofu banquet was opened, with exquisite food, rare out-of-season vegetables on the market, and crystal solutions of high value on the market, all of which were available at Merton's wedding banquet.
Everyone is tasting the food, and the topic of the mouth is not far from this refreshing wedding, Merton's wedding has changed too much, but every change makes people talk about it,
The sedan chair carriage welcomes relatives too slowly, and the disadvantages of extortion by the sedan chair driver; Worship heaven and earth, let heaven and earth be the witness, more grand; Wedding vows The newlyweds spend their lives together, and they are truly willing to do so, and I believe that it will not be long before this wedding model will be promoted in Datang, and the wedding customs of the entire Datang will be changed.
