Chapter 508: Forced Marriage and Marriage Giving After the Crowning Ceremony
When it is strong, old and strong, the sword is not old...... This is Li Xian's only feeling in Guanli Jinzong.
It is a very honorable thing to serve as the guest of honor of the crown of the prince, but the whole process of glory is also a huge amount of energy. Although people in this year have grown up under the influence of etiquette almost from childhood to adulthood, it is one thing to say that it is another thing to do, not to mention that this is a grand deed carried out in the Tang Dynasty Temple, just that heavy dress is enough to make it difficult for Xu Jingzong to move.
It stands to reason that after the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, the weather should have cooled down, but this season still reveals a sense of sultry and undeserved. Burning incense everywhere, surrounded by people, coupled with the thick dress, Li Xian, who was in the center, was certainly very hot, but seeing Xu Jingzong also wearing such a big coat there without a trace, he didn't feel a little embarrassed, and this original deep-rooted impression was even more changed.
On such a big occasion, even if Emperor Li had been sick before and left the government alone, this time he was in service of the crown of the Son of Heaven and came to attend in good spirits, standing on the steps at this moment. Probably thinking that now that his two sons have become talents, these right and right arms can help, and the prince's body seems to be gradually getting stronger, and his face is filled with a happy smile, and the oil and sweat on his head and the heat on his body are all ignored by him.
"The prince Yongwang will be crowned, and he will obey his orders."
With the announcement of the guest of honor, Xu Jingzong, this has entered the formal stage. Under the blazing gaze of the ministers, Li Xian dizzily followed the guidance of the praiser Li Jingye. Follow all the prompts. Although he had been training for several days, there were a lot of hot people on this day, and after a few big turns, he almost fainted, kneeling and worshipping, and he was at the mercy of him like a wooden man.
However, this Xu Jingzong knelt down twice as many times as he did! And this crown is not the end of adding once, first the cloth crown, and then the Jinxian crown. Then there is the crown. Every time, a hairpin should be set up. Wait until after the last addition of the knightly offering wine. Li Xian already felt that the clothes on his back were all soaked and stuck to his body, and then he saw that Xu Jingzong was also sweating profusely and just holding on, he squirmed his lips and wanted to speak, but finally stopped stiffly.
Hold on, just stick to the end!
Take the word, worship the family, ascend and sit, bow again, and give the coin...... All the procedures were carried out for about two and a half hours in total, and it was said that Li Xian and the others were hungry, that is, the people watching the ceremony were not hungry. Even His Majesty the Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty, who had the best spirit at the beginning. At this time, although there was a canopy on his head, his face was also slightly red from the sun, thanks to the support from side to side. Compared with the hundreds of officials who beat the spirit, the martial queen still stood straight, and the appearance of the spirit was enough to make the man ashamed.
Although this crown ceremony is complicated, it is still much simpler than her silkworm ceremony, what is such hard work?
Finally, when Xu Jingzong couldn't hold on. The whole ceremony came to an end. It proclaimed the liberation of all people from top to bottom. Although there were not too many guests invited this time, there were forty or fifty of them, ranging from the emperor's relatives to the ministers of civil and military affairs. Everybody was so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs. So, Li Zhi, who also felt his suffering, waved his hand, and then gave a banquet in the Lin De Palace, which was a lively time.
As the protagonist, Li Xian inevitably wanted to come out to thank him, but when he turned around, he didn't see Xu Jingzong, who should be sitting on the top seat, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange. When he was transferred to the emperor and empress, he learned that Xu Jingzong couldn't bear it anymore because of this rare hard time, and now he was resting in the side hall.
Li Xian's surprise was not trivial, and he hurriedly volunteered to thank him, and after getting tacit consent, he personally brought the wine and moved to the side hall. Since there are not many guests on this day, the main hall is full, so there is no need to use the side hall. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Xu Jingzong half-crooked on a palace maid, another palace person helped beat his legs, a palace person beat his back diligently, and someone served him to eat fruit.
Xu Jingzong glanced at Li Xian with squinted eyes, and when he saw that he was dumbfounded, he lazily moved his body, waved his hand at the three palace people and signaled them to retreat, and then he barely sat up straight: "Cough, this is used to enjoying happiness at home, and now sitting on the ground is a little unbearable, not to mention that this time I tossed for most of the day!" King Yong, my old bones are about to fall apart today, how can you thank me? β
Li Xian unceremoniously sat down in front of Xu Jingzong, and threw a grape into his mouth: "Wrapped in such a big dress for a long time, I'm still worried about whether you can afford to eat, it's okay to see you like this." Okay, what's the requirement to say it bluntly, don't beat around the bush, what kind of friendship do I have with you? β
As soon as he heard this, Xu Jingzong suddenly came to his senses, and his small eyes that had just narrowed up suddenly widened: "My request is very simple, you marry Ah Yan, let's clear the two!" Don't be busy just yet
People can be ruthless, you dare to say that I don't have a good impression of my granddaughter at all, it is not a lack of love between men and women, and it can be cultivated slowly, she said that she will become a monk after you get married, do you watch her go to be a female crown? β
Xu Jingzong's words were not too convincing, but seeing that Lao Xu had been busy for so long at such an age, Li Xian's refusal was a little unspeakable - if he really didn't care about others at all, why did he still hide that red bean earring? But thinking that he was married this time, and he added another one, he began to rub his chin in embarrassment.
The first voice in his heart was desperately pleading him to agree, and the other voice was desperately mocking him as he ate in the bowl and looked into the pot. Finally, he was about to say something when he heard the sound of a heavy slap on the table.
"Don't fool me with your two fiancΓ©es, I don't know yet, Xiao Helan is obedient to you at all, as for Qu Tushenruo, don't look at her as a thorny flower in front of others, but after getting married, I still have to listen to you! Manly man, if you like it, you like it, if you don't like it, you don't like it, you can give me a letter now, yes, or don't agree? β
Xu Jingzong rarely blows his beard and glares at the ground, generally speaking, this person has always shown a smiling face in the past. Although it is not as good as Li Yifu's hidden knife in his smile, as long as people who know him know him, they will be vigilant when they see that smiling face. And at this moment, facing the pair of eyes that suddenly radiated endless fierce light, Li Xian almost had some doubts, is this old man Xu Jingzong?
Xu Jingzong said all the excuses he should use, what else could he say?
"I really like Ah Yan's temperament, but she is your granddaughter, if she marries me as a child, this minister will ...... among them."
", if those ministers have flower-like daughters in their families, and they can make your kid take a fancy to them, and it's too late for them to hurry to your house to send people, who would dare to laugh at me? Small...... Even if you marry you to be small, it is better than marrying those straw bales who are not worthy of the name! β
Xu Jingzong scoffed at Li Xian's worries, and then showed a happy expression: "You said this, you said it yourself, you said it yourself!" Okay, I'll go and plead to the queen now, you have to marry three, and it's not a big deal to add one! Ah Yan, your grandfather has found you a good husband, hahahaha! β
Li Xian was dumbfounded and looked at Xu Jingzong, who was still lazy and motionless just now, got up and stood up straight, patted his body, and walked towards the main hall like a fly, where was the slightest old man's faltering? After sitting in place for a long time, he patted his head vigorously, and suddenly thought of another question.
Wasn't the original plan for him to marry the two, why did he suddenly become a couple, and now he has to become four?
For the social interaction at the highest level in Chang'an, the crown ceremony of Yongwang Li Xian seems to have turned into a grand engagement ceremony. After the Lin Dedian was full of wine and food, Emperor Li Da, the son of the Tang Dynasty, released more than a dozen marriages in one go, involving both men and women from royal relatives to the children of civil and military officials. If the marriage after the horse race at the Hibiscus Garden had left many people scrambling, this time, many more people fell into a short-term brain freeze.
However, the exciting news seemed to be one after another, and when people had not yet accepted Emperor Li's strong interest in marriage, the Tang Dynasty prince followed up with the announcement of the prince's wedding in October. This was something that everyone knew, so there was not much surprise, but the next news made everyone's mouth open and not close for a long time.
"After the prince's wedding, the beginning of November was the wedding of King Yong, marrying Helan, Qutu, Xu, and Gao."
Who are Helan and Qu Tu, this person knows very well, but who are Xu and Gao? People who were at a loss saw Xu Jingzong's smiling face, and gradually tasted it - needless to say, this so-called Xu family must be Xu Jingzong's granddaughter, but who is the last person?
At this time, Empress Wu stood up in time to answer people's doubts: "Sikong Li Ji is invincible in Liaodong, and the king of Goguryeo, Gaozang, expressed his feelings, saying that he was coerced by Quan Nanjian to produce Quan Nanjian, so he had to resist my Tang Tianwei and offer the princess Gao Desheng. His Majesty thought that the king of Goguryeo was coerced and could not bear to add to the crime, so he hereby married the Goguryeo princess Gao Desheng to King Yong and gave him the title of Lady of Andong County. β
In an instant, the audience was filled with countless inexplicable eyes, and the vast majority of people didn't figure out where such a Goguryeo princess jumped out. And Shangguan Yi and Li Jingxuan glanced at each other, and at the same time made a blank look. As for Li Xian, who should know this matter the most, he is completely petrified - he was forced to give him a woman without prior notice, and there is no reason for this!
