Chapter 57: The Great Wedding
Mao Lingfeng was teased by the two, and her face was flushed with shame. But he refused to show weakness, bit his lip and said, "I dare to love the two of you to spend the next day in bed." Otherwise, how can you know so clearly. ”
Xie Linxi and Wang Jingyu both shook their heads, "We are different from you, the prince has endured it for seven years, and he has also missed you for seven years, so he finally looks forward to today, how can he let you go easily." ”
Mao Lingfeng was stunned by what the two said, pointed at Xie Linxi and said with a smile: "If my sister still says it, don't blame my sister for being unkind to you." ”
Xie Linxi laughed and said to Wang Jingyu: "Look at ......, she is putting up a princess to train people!" ”
Mao Lingfeng was afraid that she would make trouble again, so she had to beg for mercy in a low voice: "Two good sisters, just let me go!" ”
Chen sat outside and heard his daughter begging for mercy, so he walked in and said with a smile: "I haven't seen my grandmother and Mrs. Quanfu yet." ”
Mao Lingfeng pulled up her skirt and walked quickly to the outside room if she was amnesty. Salute to the old lady and all the ladies of Quanfu. The various Quanfu ladies hurriedly got up and returned a big gift. You must know that Mao Ling wears an eight-tailed phoenix hairpin, except for the queen and the queen mother, any lady and princess have to salute "her" when they see her. And she didn't have to salute anyone but the Queen Mother.
The old lady looked at her granddaughter dressed up, gently grabbed Mao Lingfeng and said: "Feng'er, although the prince spoils you, but you can't go too far, now you are glorious, but you can't press the prince, the husband is the wife, you have to remember that only if the prince is good to you, you will be happy." If the prince treats you badly, how can you be happy even if you have heavenly glory. ”
Mao Lingfeng nodded: "Granddaughter write it down, granddaughter knows." Grandmother, rest assured! ”
Chen's eyes were slightly red, and he tugged at his daughter's hands, looked at his daughter and smiled: "Mother has nothing else to say, as long as you are happy." It's nice to be like this now. ”
Mao Lingfeng looked at her mother's reddish eyes, knelt down and kowtowed to the old lady and the Chen family respectively, "Grandmother, mother, take care of your body, Feng'er can't be by her side for a long time." ”
The old lady and the Chen family picked up Mao Lingfeng. The palace grandmother saw that her dress was a little messy, and she touched up her makeup again. At this time, Zhiqi came over to report: "The prince has arrived at the gate of the mansion, please ask the young lady to go out." ”
The old lady took the beautifully embroidered red hijab and gently covered her granddaughter's phoenix crown, and said with a smile: "Let's go, don't miss the hour." Mrs. Quanfu helped Mao Lingfeng up, said some auspicious words and sent her out of the room.
The female officer took over the position of the personal maid and helped her out of the backyard to the front hall. Mao Xuqi, Mao Xuwen and Li Chengkun sat in the hall, Mao Lingfeng saluted his father and third uncle, and deeply blessed Li Chengkun, and said softly: "Thank you eldest brother for coming thousands of miles to send my little sister." ”
Li Chengkun smiled slightly, unfolded a holy decree and said with a smile: "This king will give you a dowry of one county and seven states, this is a map of the holy decree and a map of the state and county, you can accept it." ”
"What one county and seven states give me a dowry." Mao Lingfeng came back to his senses after hearing this, and hurriedly excused himself. "This is what you Xiyi soldiers exchanged for their lives, how can you give it to me so easily, I have a reward, it is enough. Brother Wang, you can't do this. In this county and seven states, the little sister can't bear it, so she asks Brother Wang to take back her life. ”
Li Chengkun said with a straight face: "The holy decree has been issued, how can it be changed." Otherwise, keep it first! ”
Mao Lingfeng resolutely refused. Li Chengkun said helplessly: "The holy decree will be left, and I will take it back with me, and I will help you take care of it first, and if anything happens in the future, you will go to your fiefdom." Remember, it's always yours. ”
"Thank you, Brother Wang." Mao Lingfeng's voice choked. "Princess, the time has come, please go out and get into the sedan chair." Suixi urged the female officer.
Li Chengkun bowed down and said, "Your eldest brother is not in the capital, so let my brother send you to marry, it's okay." Mao Lingfeng nodded lightly, lying on Li Chengkun's back, his eyes were red, and a tear rolled down and dripped on Li Chengkun's neck.
In the spring of October, frost and snow are blowing in the wind, and the Shun Wangfu is ready to stop after a month of overtime and intense preparations.
Sima Shun got up early in the morning, dressed neatly, went to the palace to worship the emperor, and traveled through a ceremony, and then he would join the welcoming team and come to the Zhenguo Mansion.
Along the way, the people crowded the water on both sides of the road, and this sensational marriage in the capital was a topic of discussion among the people of the capital after the emperor decreed the marriage a month ago. After a month of anticipation, I finally waited for this wedding comparable to the wedding of a royal princess. The people have been waiting for it for a long time. Along the way, the taverns and teahouses were already sold out.
Sima Shun wore a big red wedding robe, sat on a horse, and came to the door of the Guogong Mansion with half a sedan chair. stared at the gate, when he saw the bride being carried out of the palace after the palace official came out.
Sima Shun gasped, and Li Chengkun, the dignified king of Xiyi, actually carried Mao Lingfeng on his back and got on the sedan chair. You can see how deep this affection is. In a blink of an eye, I saw the figure of a woman with a big red hijab lying on Li Chengkun's back, as steady as Mount Tai. couldn't help but feel nervous, his heart beat wildly, and he stared closely at the woman on Li Chengkun's back.
Mao Lingfeng felt a hot gaze, stared at him tightly, knew it in his heart, and nodded almost invisibly through the thin hijab.
Li Chengkun carried Mao Lingfeng to the sedan car door, and as soon as Mao Lingfeng got off Li Chengkun's back, a neat voice sounded: "Please get on the sedan chair general." I saw sixteen generals standing neatly by the sedan chair.
Sima Shun saw Mao Lingfeng nodding, his nervous heart suddenly quieted down, and he immediately watched the slender figure enter the sedan chair.
Gao Yufei, the salute officer, shouted: "The auspicious time is here, start the sedan chair!" Sixteen generals lifted the sedan chair steadily. When the people of the capital saw the sixteen generals carrying the sedan chair, they exclaimed loudly, "With such pomp, even the royal family has no such honor." ”
With the shouting of the salute official, in front of the gate of Zhenguo Gong, firecrackers suddenly rang out, and gongs and drums were noisy.
King Wushun was in front and the sedan chair was behind, leaving the Zhenguo Mansion and heading to the Taimiao.
Taimiao's visit to the ancestors of the Dajin royal family is a royal honor to marry a concubine, and ordinary women don't say that they kneel and worship, and it is impossible to even step further.
Although the palace taught Mama to teach her to practice a few times, but at this moment, Mao Lingfeng was still a little nervous, her palms were sweating, and she followed behind King Wushun, following in her steps, cautious, and did not dare to make mistakes.
Walking into the main hall, the eunuch of the ceremonial ceremony led the second to stand in front of the tablet in the middle and sang: "Please lord, the princess salutes the emperor of the ancestors!" ”
Mao Lingfeng raised his head slightly, and saw that the hem of Sima Shun's python dragon big red suit stopped in front of a kneeling mat. As the celebrant eunuch shouted, "Kneel." The two knelt on the ground one after the other and kowtowed respectfully three times.
The chief celebrant shouted, "After kneeling, get up." Mao Lingfeng took a long breath and stood up with the outstretched hand of the celebrant eunuch.
Sima Shun heard Mao Lingfeng's breathing and knew that she was nervous. Stretched out her big palm to hold her little hand in her hand, felt the little hand wet, and couldn't help but smile lightly, I didn't think that the decisive killing on the battlefield, the woman with unparalleled wisdom would also have a nervous time. Gently led her to bow down to the other cards.
Mao Lingfeng was held in his hand, and he felt at ease inexplicably, and his originally nervous heart suddenly calmed down, and his face was flushed with shame on the face hidden under the big red hijab. Quietly bow your head. Worshiped the Taimiao. The chief eunuch of the celebrant sang: "After kneeling, the princess, the princess will return to the house." Add Ding Scattered Leaves to the Royal Family, and the blessings will be extended. ”
When Mao Lingfeng heard this, his body stiffened, and his steps froze. Sima Shun gently slapped her. Mao Lingfeng's heart was sweet, and he felt the strange gazes of the eunuchs on both sides, and couldn't help but panic, and called softly: "Wang ...... Father. ”
Sima Shun looked at Mao Lingfeng's embarrassment, couldn't help but laugh, leaned over, and asked in a low voice, "Feng'er, what do you command?" ”
Mao Lingfeng was embarrassed, and hurriedly pulled his hand out of his big palm, Sima Shun's palm was empty, the corners of his lips were hooked, and his mood became more and more happy. Shaking his head with a chuckle, he turned and walked down the stairs.
Mao Lingfeng was sent back to the sedan chair under the guardianship of Mrs. Si Li, and a large number of peanuts, copper wires, red dates and eggs were scattered to the side of the road all the way. The people cheered and scrambled. Along the way, gongs and drums were beaten until the Wushun Palace.
The Wushun Palace, which was already crowded with officials who had come to congratulate him, was lively. Hearing the sound of firecrackers outside the palace gate, the sound of gongs and drums, I knew that the newlyweds had returned to the palace after worshipping. Everyone walked out of the hall. King Wushun followed the guidance of the eunuch and kicked open the sedan door. handed over the red silk, led Mao Lingfeng to step on the red carpet, and came to the hall.
Gao Yufei watched a pair of beautiful people coming slowly, and felt a little lost inexplicably, Li Chengkun saw him in a daze, and hit him hard. Gao Yufei was startled and sang loudly: "Worship heaven and earth, kneel!" The words just fell. I heard a eunuch shouting outside the palace gate, "The emperor has arrived, and the queen has arrived." In the hall, the congratulatory ministers knelt down to greet them. Chanted: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live the queen." I saw the emperor and queen slowly entering.
King Wushun and Mao Lingfeng knelt down to greet each other, "See Long Live the Emperor and the Queen Mother." ”
Sima Yan and Wang Jingyu said with a smile: "No courtesy, flat body, the two of us also came to join in the fun and be happy." ”
Sima Shun greeted the two of them on the throne and said: "The emperor and the queen are here, it is a great honor for the ministers, please invite the emperor and the queen to come to the court to receive the ceremony, and the ministers and Feng'er are married." ”
Sima Yan and Wang Jingyu gladly accepted. Gao Yufei shouted: "Two kneel in the high hall, kneel!" Sima Shun took Mao Lingfeng and knelt down uprightly. Husband and wife worship each other, salute and send them to the cave room. ”
After Sima Shun took Mao Lingfeng and sent him into the cave room, he said softly: "Feng'er, you have some food, and I will go to the hall to support it, and I will come back soon." ”
"Hmm." Mao Lingfeng replied lightly. Sima Shun helped her sit on the bed, looked at the woman with her head covered, and was reluctant to quit the new house. Come to the antechamber and support.
After Sima Yan and Wang Jingwang drank a few glasses, they quickly got up. The ministers knelt to see the emperor and queen away.
As soon as the emperor and queen left, the generals suddenly made a fuss and grabbed Sima Shun. Zheng Jie and Tian Yuan even had to pull Sima Shun to have a good drink. Sima Shun glanced at the dark three and four dark, and the two of them immediately understood and stopped the generals. Sima Shun avoided Li Chengkun and quickly slipped into the cave room.
In the cave room, Mao Lingfeng, under the service of Zhiqi and Yahuan, took a sip of some snacks and tea, and felt better in his stomach. Sit upright on the bed. Thinking about what is going to happen tonight, I can't help but feel nervous and pounding. The two slender jade hands clenched into fists, full of desire to escape, but their bodies were stiff and unable to move. I heard the little maid outside the courtyard say, "I've seen the prince!" ”
Sima complied, walked into the main room, slowly approached Mao Lingfeng, and sat beside her with the guidance of the female official who sent her joy.
Mao Lingfeng suddenly felt a sense of oppression coming, sweat broke out on his head, his hands tightly grasped the hem of his skirt, and he couldn't help but get up and want to escape.
Seeing that she wanted to stand up, Sima Shun pressed her with a slight press of his right hand, pressed her on the bed, and said softly, "Feng'er, what else do you want to do." If you are commanded to be a husband, why should you get up! ”
Mao Lingfeng stammered, and the female official came over with two glasses of wine, "Please invite the prince and the princess to drink the wine together, and the husband and wife will be white." Congratulations to the prince and the princess for a hundred years of good union, growing old together, loving husband and wife, and full of children and grandchildren. ”
Sima Shun took the dragon cup, wrapped it around Mao Lingfeng's jade arm, and brought it to his mouth. Mao Lingfeng took the phoenix cup, knowing the meaning of this wine, he couldn't help but eat.
Seeing this scene, Sima Shun's heart beat wildly, and he asked softly, "Feng'er, what's wrong." ”
Mao Lingfeng hesitated slightly, slowly put the wine glass under the red cap, and drank it all in one gulp. Sima Shun took a long breath and drank the wine in his hand. The female official put away her glass and said a few words of congratulations. With a group of people, they exited the cave room.
