Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

A day later, Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua's marriage day. This wedding can be called grand in Wancheng, and the Liu clan, the ministers of the court and even the scholars of Wancheng, but all the people with heads and faces have come to attend.

Liu Xiu's mansion, since the morning, has been in an endless stream of guests, and the gifts received alone cannot be placed in one room, so they need to be placed in several rooms.

Liu Liang came to Liu Xiu's house early. Liu Xiu's father has long since died, and Liu Liang, as an uncle, single-handedly pulled him up, and Liu Xiu is called uncle and nephew, but he is actually father and son.

Liu Xiu wore a red brocade robe, came to the lobby, knelt in front of Liu Liang in a regular manner, and listened to the admonitions and encouragement of the elders. This is Jiaozi ceremony.

Liu Liang looked at Liu Xiu, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart, he had always regarded Liu Xiu as his youngest son. At the beginning, when he had just passed under his knees, he was just a little doll, and in the blink of an eye, he was about to start a family.

"Ah Xiu, after getting married, you will really grow up, no matter what you do in the future, you must think twice, and you must put your family first."

"My nephew remembers his uncle's teachings." Liu Xiu bowed forward.

Liu Liang stepped forward, pulled Liu Xiu up, and said, "Hurry up!" ”

Liu Xiu got up and saluted Liu Liang again, then turned around and walked out.

Zhu You, Feng Yi, Wang Ba and others were all waiting in the courtyard outside, and when they saw Liu Xiu coming out, everyone stepped forward together, smiling happily and said, "The lord is in good spirits today!" ”

Liu Xiu also smiled, looked at Zhu You and the others, all of them were wearing new clothes, dressed up slick and slippery.

They are giving Liu Xiu a secretary today. In the Han Dynasty, there was no such thing as a groomsman, and the so-called best man was named Qing, and the bridesmaids were named 媵 (ying).

The group of them left the mansion and went outside, and the honor guards, floats, and drum bands for receiving relatives were all ready, beating and beating along the way, and went to Zhuangzi outside the city.

There was nothing to say all the way, and when he arrived at the door of Zhuangzi, Feng Yi turned around and beckoned to Long Yuan behind.

Long Yuan was stunned for a moment before he showed a sudden realization, patted his head, and then hurriedly turned around, took out a golden goose from the bag tied to the saddle, and handed it to Liu Xiu.

This is a gift, and one of the customs of the wedding is to give the bridegroom a gift to the woman's family when he comes to the door.

In the customs of the Han Dynasty, the rite was fixed, that is, the goose, and the farewell thing, no matter how good and noble, would be regarded as bad luck and cause dissatisfaction in the woman's family.

Of course, the material of this goose can be changed. Ordinary people, small households, usually send copper geese, and wealthy families will choose to send golden geese.

At present, Liu Xiu's size is also a partial general, and Tong Yan naturally can't take it, and the golden goose he sent is not gold-plated, but pure gold.

Liu Xiu dismounted, took the golden goose handed over by Long Yuan, held it in both hands, and walked to the gate of Zhuangzi.

Yin Zhi and Yin Xing had been waiting outside the gate of Zhuangzi for a long time, and with them, there were many relatives of the Yin family, as well as guests who came to congratulate them.

Seeing Liu Xiu walking over with a golden goose in his hand, the faces of the two brothers, Yin Zhi and Yin Xing, suddenly showed joy, and happily welcomed Liu Xiu into the Zhuangzi.

Entering the lobby of the vestibule of Zhuangzi, Liu Xiu greeted Yin Lu, and at the same time sent the salute to Yin Lu in front of him.

Yin Lu nodded with satisfaction and asked Yin Zhi to accept Liu Xiu's gift. On the other side, Yin Lihua, who was dressed in a wedding dress, also walked out of the boudoir. The girls who gave her bridesmaids today are all daughters of big families, and they look more delicate than the other, but when they came together, Liu Xiu

The first thing he saw was Yin Lihua, and after that, there was no one else in his eyes.

At that time, the bride did not have the custom of hijab, and when she raised her eyes, she saw that Yin Lihua was wearing a golden corolla on her head, made of pure gold, with gold leaves and buds of gold silk, and golden glass hanging on both sides. Looking at the face, the eyebrows are slender, the beautiful eyes are bright, the nose is high, the lips are delicate, and the center of the eyebrows, a little bright red Huadian, which plays the role of the eyebrow finishing touch, making her whole person look beautiful, like a fairy who has just fallen from the sky

Child.

She wore a bright red robe with a red robe inside. The tight-fitting curved skirt outlines the concave and convex figure of Yin Lihua, and the loose robe makes her look dignified and elegant, noble and atmospheric.

Seeing such a beautiful and beautiful Yin Lihua, not to mention Liu Xiu, Zhu You, Feng Yi, Wang Ba and others were also stunned. Yin Zhi leaned in towards Liu Xiu and secretly pulled down his sleeve.

Liu Xiu finally came back to his senses, he coughed dryly, covered the embarrassment on his face, and then walked up to Yin Lihua and stretched out his hand. Liu Xiu was staring at Yin Lihua just now, and Yin Lihua was also looking at Liu Xiu.

I haven't seen it for a while, Liu Xiu's skin is a little darker and her person is thinner than before, but she is a lot stronger, and her figure is more slender and majestic.

At the same time, he has a little more vicissitudes in him, and he also has a little more maturity and stability.

If Liu Xiu seemed like a big boy before, now he has grown into a real man. Tenacity, forbearance, and the ability to bend and stretch, these good traits can be found in him.

Looking at Liu Xiu's outstretched hand, Yin Lihua slowly held it, and then was pulled by Liu Xiu, walked to Yin Lu's approach, and the two knelt on their knees together, kowtowing to Yin Lu forward.

Yin Lu's eyes were wet and red, and he flicked the wetness of the corners of his eyes with his cuffs, and when Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua stood up, the old man choked up and said, "Ah Xiu, I'll take Lihua ...... I'll leave it to you. ”

Liu Xiu's face was straight, and he said: "Uncle don't worry, Uncle Wen will live up to Lihua in this life!" ”

Seeing Yin Lu nodding, Liu Xiu re-held Yin Lihua's Rouyi and walked out.

Out of the gate of Zhuangzi, Yin Lihua sat in the float, and Liu Xiu was still riding a horse. Relatives and friends on the Yin family's side went to see off their relatives, and relatives and friends of the Liu family came to pick up relatives, and the two sides met halfway, and then carried out the roadblock.

The so-called obstacle car is to stop the float and not let it go, and the groom and bride must send enough red envelopes before they are allowed to go.

China's red envelope tradition has a long history, and it has been gone since the Han Dynasty, but at that time it was not called red envelopes, but directly asked for money.

Along the way, the team of sending off and receiving relatives was also cheerful, and they entered Wancheng and arrived at Liu Xiu's mansion.

Enter the lobby and celebrate your wedding. Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua first worshiped the gods and the earth, the ancestors and the ancestors, then worshiped the elder Liu Liang, and finally worshiped the husband and wife.

After the ceremony is completed, the best man and the bridesmaids bring a copper basin filled with water, and Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua wash their hands in the same basin, which is the Wo Yu ceremony.

During the Han Dynasty, great importance was attached to cleanliness, not to mention whether it was poor or not, every household was cleaned up, and as long as conditions permitted, almost every house was spotless.

After washing their hands, Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua sat opposite each other, Liu Xiu sat in the west and Yin Lihua sat in the east. This way of sitting has the meaning of the intersection of yin and yang.

After that, the servants in the house brought up wine and meat dishes, Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua wanted to drink a kind of wine and eat a dish together, and the emphasis here was on the unity of husband and wife, and they loved each other.

Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua each drank half a glass of wine first, and then the two exchanged cups and drank the remaining half of the wine in each other's cups.

This is a conjunctive ceremony, which means that husband and wife are of the same heart. Later, the ceremony evolved into a glass of wine.

After the ceremony, the best man and bridesmaid stepped forward again, cut a strand of hair on each of Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua's heads with small scissors, exchanged them with each other, and then put each other's hair in their own personal bags.

This process, called hair tieing, is the so-called hair couple, which is from which it comes from.

After the knot, Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua became officially husband and wife. After that, Yin Lihua was sent to the cave room, while Liu Xiu stayed in the vestibule to entertain the guests.

Due to the large number of guests today, not only the lobby was full, but even the courtyard was already full of guests.

Just when Liu Xiu took Zhu You and other groomsmen to push the cups and change the lamps with the guests, a sharp chant came from outside the courtyard gate: "The holy decree has arrived-"

The guests present were taken aback, and people froze in place, not coming back to their senses for a long time.

When the eunuch held high the holy decree and walked in from the outside, Liu Xiu took the lead in kneeling on the ground, and then the surrounding guests woke up like a dream, and people knelt on the ground.

The eunuch glanced around at everyone present, and then opened the holy decree and sang Liu Xuan's will aloud.

Liu Xuan's holy decree, first of all, praised Liu Xiu greatly, what 'benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith, gentleness, courtesy, frugality', anyway, if there are any good words, use any good words, and in the end, the holy decree mentions that Liu Xiu is named the Marquis of Wuxin.

When the eunuch finished reading the decree, people's faces showed surprise.

They thought that Liu Xiu was no longer powerful in the court, but they didn't expect His Majesty to give him the title of Hou on Liu Xiu's wedding day, so that he could be happy, which shows that he is still very fond of Liu Xiu.

At this time, people's eyes when they looked at Liu Xiu changed a little, and the guests who were still arrogant in front of Liu Xiu just now instantly became humble. Holding high and stepping on low, human nature, especially at this time, is unusually obvious.

After the eunuch read out the decree, Liu Xiu had to hurry up to accept it, but Liu Xiu knelt there and remained motionless for a long time. The eunuch looked puzzled, couldn't help but lean forward, and reminded in a low voice: "Marquis Wu Xin, quickly accept the order!" ”

It can't be that I'm happy in my heart, I'm stupid, right?

Liu Xiu raised his head, there was no expression on his face, he couldn't see that he was happy or unhappy, he raised his hands, took the holy decree, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty Longen!" ”

After getting up, Liu Xiu asked Liu Quan to reward the eunuch, who shook the bulging money bag and said to Liu Xiu with a smile on his face: "Oh, Marquis Wuxin is too polite, how can this make the slave and maid embarrassed!" ”

That being said, his hands were not idle, and he tucked the money bag directly into his cuff.

After sending away the eunuchs, Liu Xiu continued to entertain the guests, and at this time, Wang Feng, who was drunk and red-faced, came over and said with a smile: "Uncle Wen, how about it, I'll just say, Your Majesty is going to give you a marquis, am I right?" ”

Liu Xiu looked up and smiled, arched his hand and said: "If there is no Chengguo Gong to speak well for me in front of His Majesty, I am afraid that I will not get this title." ”

As he spoke, he asked Zhu You on the side to pour two glasses of wine and said, "Cheng Guogong, I toast you!" ”

"Good, good, good!" Seeing Liu Xiu's favor, Wang Feng was in a better mood, and he toasted each other with Liu Xiu, and drank all the wine in the cup.

In the eyes of the guests, Liu Xiu is a double happiness today, proud of the spring breeze, not only married Yin Lihua, who is known as the first beauty in the world, but also was named Wuxin Hou by the Son of Heaven. However, only Liu Xiu understood in his heart that Liu Xuan had given himself a martial letter marquis, which was pure to disgust himself, and he was determined to add bad luck to himself.
