The sound of horns dancing and music, such as the flags of the forest and wedding clothes, is a dazzling crimson. This qiē has added a lot of festive atmosphere to the majestic ancient capital of Chang'an and the magnificent and gorgeous Daming Palace.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xue Shao walked up to Longwei Road step by step and arrived in front of the palace Daping. The drum horn stopped, the elegant chimes played an ancient song symbolizing auspiciousness and blessings, and the grand and solemn sacrifice ceremony began.

The Tang Dynasty men are inferior to women, and the etiquette at the time of marriage has always been that the woman admires the simplicity of the man. But after all, the emperor's marriage is different from ordinary ordinary people, and it is not so simple for Xue Shao to marry Princess Taiping. Just this ceremony of sacrificing to the gods of heaven and earth and the ancestors of the Li Tang royal family was quite grand.

Emperor Li Zhi and Empress Wu personally presided over this ceremony. After the three animals were sacrificed and incense were burned, a series of activities were carried out in accordance with the ancient system of "weekly rites", followed by a round of wonderful ancient dance performances. It lasted nearly an hour, and Princess Taiping did not appear during this period.

After all the ceremonies are over, it's the real highlight – the bride goes out!

At this time, the crown prince Li Xian took Princess Taiping's hand and slowly walked out of Penglai Hall accompanied by Linlang Yuyu.

The drums and horns were loud, and the cheers were shaking. The huge sound almost shook the entire imperial city, and the people of Chang'an heard it.

Xue Shao watched Princess Taiping slowly walk out and stared at her with a gentle smile on his face. Princess Taiping, Dai Feng, wore a Xia Qi, her face was shrouded in a layer of red veil, and her magnificent floor-sweeping wedding dress was glorious, and non-words could describe her beauty and luxury at the moment!

An exclamation of envy sounded in front of the Penglai Palace, "What a beautiful bride!" ”

Princess Taiping slowly approached, and when she was a few steps away from Xue Shao, she stopped.

Li Zhi and Wu Zetian said together: "Xue Shao, we will hand over our precious daughter to you!" ”

Let's say, Li Zhi took Princess Taiping from the crown prince Li Xian, took her hand, and then grabbed one of Xue Shao's hands, so that the two of them held their hands together.

Xue Shao felt that Princess Taiping's hands were a little cold and a little stiff. As soon as the two of them shook each other, Princess Taiping immediately grabbed it tightly and trembled slightly.

She was nervous and excited.

Li Zhi let the two of them shake hands, and his own hands were also tightly clenched, very hard.

Wu Zetian also stepped forward, the expression on his face was rare warmth and softness, and he said with a smile: "Virtuous son-in-law Jia'er, a hundred years of good together!" ”

Then, Wu Zetian's novice used a string of red rope to string the shining orb and wrapped it around the wrists of Xue Shao and Princess Taiping. The end of the string is stuffed in the palm of the two's hand. It means that the two of them are blessed with beads and curtains, and they will give birth to a noble son early.

The courtiers who were watching the ceremony hurriedly stepped forward and sent their blessings one after another.

Xue Shao held Princess Taiping's hand and held it high.

In front of the Penglai Palace, there were suddenly a mountain of cheers. Giant drums rumbled and horns soared into the sky, and the sound of wedding salutes shook the clouds.

"The princess and the horse, a hundred years together!"

Xue Shao didn't need to turn his head to look at it, he already knew that Princess Taiping must be in tears.

"Don't cry, baby." Xue Shao said in a low voice, "Otherwise, it will make your father and queen mother sad." ”

Princess Taiping shook Xue Shao back a little harder, as a response.

Li Zhi looked at Xue Shao and Princess Taiping with joy and loss, his eyes were already moist, and he was a little speechless. Wu Zetian walked up to the two of them and said with a smile: "Taiping my son, my father and mother have raised you for sixteen years, and from today on, you will become Xue Shao's wife." From now on, you must love Xue Shao deeply and love your home deeply. Be a virtuous and virtuous wife! ”

"I know, mother......" Princess Taiping choked.

"Xue Shao, from today onwards, Taiping will be taken care of by you." Wu Zetian turned his head to look at Xue Shao, still smiling softly, "You have to be a big husband who stands up to the sky, love your wife, love your home, more than your life!" ”

Xue Shao nodded solemnly, "I will!" ”

"Go ahead!" Wu Zetian stepped aside, let out a long sigh, and then smiled, "The groom takes the bride and goes to your home!" ”

The cheers rang out again.

"Enron, come home with me." Xue Shao said and was about to take Princess Taiping away. Unexpectedly, Princess Taiping's feet stood still, but she refused to move.

Xue Shao was slightly stunned, and saw Princess Taiping turn her head and look at Li Zhi.

Li Zhi wet his eyes, waved his hand with a smile, and motioned for Princess Taiping to go with Xue Shao.

"Father...... You...... Take care of yourself! After Princess Taiping said this, she cried out loud.

"Don't remember, go, go!" Li Zhi still waved his hand, and as he spoke, his eyes turned even redder.

Princess Taiping looked at Wu Zetian again, "Queen Mother, I'm going to ......"

"Go, my son." Wu Zetian nodded with a smile, "With Xue Lang taking care of you, your father and mother can rest assured." ”

"Then I'll go......" Princess Taiping choked up, "I'm really going!" ”

"Let's go, let's go!"

The daughter married three times, which is filial piety. Although it was a vulgar ceremony, Xue Shao clearly felt that Princess Taiping was not pretending. For her father and mother, Princess Taiping is indeed very affectionate.

Princess Taiping turned her face to look ahead, took a deep breath to calm down, and said, "Xue Lang, take me away!" ”

"Hmm." Xue Shao looked at her and nodded seriously and clenched her hand.

In the sound of drums and cheers, the two walked down the dragon tail road step by step.

"Xue Lang, in this life and this life, you have to hold my hand tightly, don't let go of me!" The two held hands and stood side by side, and Princess Taiping said in Xue Shao's ear.

Xue Shao smiled and looked resolute, and said word by word: "Unless life ends, no one can separate us!" ”

"You want to take me to travel all over the mountains and rivers and read the prosperity of the world!"

"Guanzhong is dangerous, and the mountains and rivers are majestic; The south of the Yangtze River is soft, and the small bridge is flowing water; The desert north is desolate, and the sun sets with long smoke; The East China Sea is majestic, and the sea is rippling; The Western Regions are magnificent, the wind sweeps thousands of countries - thousands of miles of rivers and mountains are picturesque, every inch of land in the Tang world, I will take you through them one by one! ”

"The hand of the son."

"Grow old with your son!"

Every step of the Longwei Road in Penglai Hall has witnessed the beautiful oath of Xue Shao and Princess Taiping. When he stepped into the wedding car holding hands, Xue Shao's mind suddenly felt a trance, remembering the scene he saw in his dream that night.

Reaching into his arms, Xue Shao took out the doll he had prepared, "An Ran, the wedding gift for you." ”

Princess Taiping stretched out her hand to take it and looked at Xue Shao in surprise, "You carved another one?" …… Show me your hands! ”

"Didn't I hold you tightly?" Xue Shao smiled.

"You...... What silly! Looking at the bloodstains on the puppet, Princess Taiping burst into tears and cried again.

"If you like it." Xue Shao said, "I had a dream, and after a thousand years, some people said that our love would become a legend. Do you believe it? ”

"I believe it. But I don't care about a thousand years from now. Princess Taiping said, "I only hope that every day of my life will be with you!" ”

"Definitely!"

"Xue Lang, you-you're my legend!"

The bride and bride are in the wedding car, and the important steps of the wedding ceremony now begin. The general Cheng Wuting led the Yulin army under his command to open the road before and after, a large number of ceremonial musicians began to play music, and thousands of porters carried the massive dowry of Princess Taiping, and the team started.

At the moment when the wedding car started, Princess Taiping let out a long breath, which Xue Shao heard.

"What's wrong?"

"I finally ...... Leave this palace! ”

Xue Shao couldn't help but be slightly stunned, just when he saw you say goodbye to your parents, you were so reluctant and sad, and now you are saying such things...... The palace is really a contradictory place that Princess Taiping loves and hates!

"Xue Lang, Xue Lang, I haven't seen you for a few days, do you miss me?" Princess Taiping's mood seemed to have taken a 180-degree turn in an instant, becoming relaxed and happy.

"Of course." Xue Shao gently hugged her waist and said, "I have never missed someone like this!" ”

"Really?"

"Really."

Through a layer of red veil, Princess Taiping smiled, laughing so much that her heart was drunk.

"Xue Lang, I really want it to be dark soon!"

"Why?"

“…… You tell me? Villain! ”

Xue Shao smiled, and at the same time, his scalp was a little tight...... Tonight's cave room is really a challenge!

A huge wedding procession of thousands of people walked out of the palace amid solemn music and cheers. On Suzaku Avenue, which is more than 100 meters wide, more Chang'an people watched. As soon as the wedding procession appeared, it was greeted by the sound of a huge wave of cheers like the roar of the sea and the mountains.

The imperial capital of Chang'an, with a population of one million. The imperial court ordered that all the farmers and businesses in the city should close down today, and they came to watch the ceremony together. In order to maintain the law and order of today's market, the imperial court dispatched tens of thousands of manpower.

The front and back of the wedding procession are guarded by the Yulin Army. On the periphery of the Yulin Army, a large number of palace people carried a large number of sugar snacks, fruits, snacks and copper coins, throwing gifts to the crowd.

From the moment they walked out of the Vermilion Bird Gate of the Imperial Palace, these small gifts were sprinkled like raindrops to the citizens of Chang'an, and they never stopped. This expense alone is not a luxury. But every tree in the street where the wedding passed was wrapped in colored silk. After the wedding, the silk was at the disposal of the people.

These expenses are all paid by the private ties of the two saints.

Datang is very wealthy, but Ersheng's life on weekdays has always been very frugal. As the mother of the country, Wu Zetian wears a skirt with fewer pleats than the skirt worn by an ordinary rich woman (pleated skirts are popular in the Tang Dynasty, and the more pleats there are, the more fabrics are costly). But for the precious daughter of Princess Taiping, they have never been stingy and very spoiled, and they can't wait to give all the wealth of the world to their daughter. Now, the dowry that followed the bride and groom behind the wedding carriage of the red robes was enough for the princess and the concubine to spend their lives on it.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the rich rival the country!

Seeing such a scene today, Xue Shao understood the meaning of an old saying - the emperor's daughter, don't worry about getting married!
