On the Qingbai stone royal road from the Daqing Gate to the Kunning Palace, the red carpet is paved, and there are 400 pairs of street lamps on both sides of the royal road, and 30 pairs of various colored lanterns, just like the magpie bridge on the Tianhe. The emperor issued an edict to send public opinion to welcome the empress. The envoys of Fengying must be the two princes' Yufa Fujin and the young lady of the eight people. The ceremonies of Fengying are dominated by Manchurian customs. The two blessings of Jin and the eight women who greet their relatives must ride horses to the Qianqing Palace in accordance with the customs of the Manmian clan. After the welcoming team arrived at the back house, the two blessings and the eight women first went to the back hall to meet the queen Xingzhen, and then waited for the dressing. At the time of the wedding, the officials of the Qin Heavenly Prison carefully calculated the auspicious time, and reported it as soon as the auspicious time arrived. The chief eunuch invited the queen and asked the queen to take two apples, and the prince Fujin put a hijab on the queen, and then put the word "dragon" written by the emperor and a golden ruyi into the sedan chair, and respectfully sent the queen to the sedan chair. The queen's sedan chair is carried by 16 people, 300 pairs of flag fans, flat gold embroidered phoenixes, palace lights, held by the school captain wearing red satin embroidered gowns, go to the front, the imperial guards support the phoenix sedan chair to carry the guards left and right, the princes and ministers of the two blessings, the eight women and the ministers of the Hu followers, closely follow the back of Fengyu, stretch for several miles, go out from the Yuehua Gate of the Qianqing Palace, turn to the Shenwu Gate, bypass half of the Forbidden City, and enter the Daqing Gate vigorously.

When Fengyu entered the Daqing Gate, the bells and drums on the upper floor of the noon gate rang in unison, and the chief eunuch reported that the queen had entered the palace. After the emperor received the proclamation, he was guided by eight young nobles holding the palace lantern, and under the care of the imperial ministers and imperial guards and the palace of the Ministry of Rites, they came to the front hall of the Jiaotai Palace to wait for the wedding. Fengyu stopped in the direction of Tianxi in the south, and the queen stepped out of the sedan chair door under the escort of the two blessings, eight lives and palace maids, and the queen held an apple in one hand to express "peace". Then the prince Fujin took the apple, and then the Fujin will be filled with beads, treasure gold and silver small Ruyi and rice grain vase handed to the queen, the queen held the symbol of "auspicious Ruyi" after the vase, that is, along the royal road, through the passage between the Qianqing Palace and the Zhaoren Palace, into the Qian, Kun two palaces between the Jiaotai Palace. When the queen entered the palace, there was a vermilion lacquer saddle in front of the palace door, and under the saddle were the two apples that the queen had received, and a red carpet was laid on it. Under the guidance of six pairs of Tibetan incense burners, the queen stepped over the "peaceful" apple saddle and was guided to the west to stand, waiting to worship heaven and earth. The emperor calculated the time, and when the queen just stood in the right position, he came out of the Kunning Palace, stood opposite the queen at the east head, and bowed down together in the sound of celebratory drums. After worshipping heaven and earth, the emperor and the queen sit in the East Warm Pavilion of Kunning Palace, eat the dumplings called "descendants of the children" and cook them by the king of Li, Fujin, and take out the pot and present it to the emperor, the dumplings are still raw, can not be eaten, take a bite and spit it out, hide under the mattress, so that you can "give birth" to the prince as soon as possible. After this ceremony, the emperor temporarily went to the front hall to rest, waiting for the Fu Jin to order the woman to "open the face" for the queen's head, and then comb the hair again, comb the bun into a flat back, no hindrance to the pillow turned to the side of the "swallowtail", still insert the double happiness hairpin, and insert a red velvet "Fu" word happy flower. After dressing up, the palace is called the "reunion meal" of the banquet, at this time the Fujin, the eunuchs, the palace maids all kneel and exit, the doors and windows of the big wedding cave room are gently closed, and the couples in the emperor's guards are outside the cave room, hitting the sandalwood board and singing the "handover song" in Manchu. The bridegroom and bride sat opposite each other in a sound of blessings, drank a glass of wine, and completed the ceremony. The female official in the palace helped the bride to sit on the dragon and phoenix wedding bed, took off the phoenix for her, and changed into a dragon and phoenix robe. At night, the flowers and candles in the cave room are melting, a piece of warmth, the groom and the bride eat longevity noodles, both step into the red curtain, and spend a good night together. The big wedding ceremony is over.

Emperor Xianfeng wore a bright yellow auspicious dress and the original Yihuang concubine, the current queen of the middle palace Yehenala Xingzhen sat side by side on the happy bed, because it is the queen's dormitory Kunning Palace has now become a big pot of rice place to cook pork and pray for blessings, the emperor specially opened the Jiaotai Palace between the Qianqing Palace and the Kunning Palace as the palace for the wedding, and took the meaning of the Jiaotai Palace "Heaven and earth are combined, Kangtai is happy".

After drinking a glass of wine, Emperor Xianfeng looked at his empress's face flushed, with a spring color, and a smile appeared on the emperor's delicate face, and he said: "Now you and I are finally a real husband and wife." ”

Xingzhen said: "The concubine is afraid. ”

"Hey, now you don't need to call yourself a concubine, you are now the queen, don't be a concubine or concubine in the future, just say I'm fine."

"Your Majesty," Xingzhen was a little moved, anyone who gave his family so much glory and grace in such a grand wedding ceremony, and was so gentle and considerate, who would not be moved, who would not be moved.

"Lan'er," the emperor called Xingzhen by her nickname since she entered the palace, "Now that you have become the queen and gave birth to a prince to me, this inner palace will be handed over to you in the future, I can rest assured." ”

"Your Majesty, you treat your concubines so kindly, and the concubines have nothing to repay, so they can only take care of the six palaces, take care of the eldest brother and Da Gege, support the queen mother, and serve the emperor with the sisters in the palace."

"This, I am convinced, it's late at night, let's go to sleep." The emperor's gentleness almost indulged Xingzhen deeply, the dragon and phoenix red candle on the side burned for a long time, and the precious goose pear tent incense was lit indoors, sweet and delicate, and the fragrance came in bursts, Xingzhen looked at the emperor who smiled faintly, and in a trance, he wanted to indulge in it, no longer caring about **, the previous dynasty, the world's bad things, and the night and night, no need to go to the early dynasty.
