Early in the morning on the auspicious day of the wedding, the concubines filled the bathtub with steaming hot water, served Le Lingzi to bathe and change clothes, and when everything was done, her dark hair was gently put on her back, and finally put on the auspicious clothes.

"The lady is very beautiful, ......" Even her concubine Kong Jiao couldn't help but let out a voice of admiration.

"Really?"

Le Lingzi sat in front of the dressing table, facing the polished bronze mirror, inside was a pretty face like a flower and jade, and behind him was Kong Jiao, who was full of envy.

Today, she has been carefully dressed, and she turned out to be the delicate daughter of a Dayi businessman, and now she looks even more decent. But her trimmed eyebrows frowned slightly, and she was still worried about the marriage that had come to her eyes.

Originally, there were not many twists and turns in this marriage, but this time when I came to the Jin Kingdom, the clouds of war shrouded along the way never dissipated, and in addition, there were all kinds of things that disturbed the fiancé's mood, and people.

However, she still had to set an example for the woman behind her, Le Lingzi raised a pair of wide sleeves, and gently swirled in front of the bronze jian, revealing a confident smile.

"It's beautiful."

In the past few days, their temporary residence is located in Waiguo, Wenxian County, on the bank of the big river. Here in the sun of the river, in the warmth of the river, in the afternoon, the bride in full costume walks out of the room. The river breeze blows, and the robe flies. Brightly dressed brides and wives hugged her, gathering her white clothes that were not stained with dust, like a pink butterfly flying among the flowers.

The place where the rut disappeared was the soup of the river, she looked back and looked at the other side of the river, the weather was excellent today, the river fog had dissipated, and she could see the situation on the other side, she knew. On the other side is Zheng Guo, Zheng Guo of the birthday star, Zheng Guo crossed the Yellow Pond and then went east. It is the mother country that divided the wilderness and raised himself - Song.

She looked forward again, and the grand welcoming procession approached with the festive sheng flute, and the envoys of both sides saluted each other, displaying the beautiful skins, jade bi, guigui, silk bundles, and lambs, and the atmosphere began to liven up.

However, the strict security of the personal welcome team is a bit excessive, and there is one post in five steps. Ten steps and one sentry.

The tiny mustard was quickly relieved, for the bridegroom had already come.

Walking from Shangqiu to here, although there are not many words along the way. Most of the time, they can only communicate through the car wall, but there are many fewer students who haven't seen each other for more than a year, and there is still some friendship between them, which is much better than those couples who have to share the same bed before they have never met.

That's what I thought. The two sides are getting closer. Le Lingzi saw his gaze again through the veil, inadvertently looking forward to it.

Zhao Wuxian had already come over generously, and according to etiquette, he wanted to serve her in the car.

"His king's robe is also good? Is it also good? ”

She suddenly glanced at the tall Kong Jiao behind her, whispered such a sentence to Zhao Wuxian, and then teased and looked into his eyes.

Zhao Wuxian hesitated for a moment, but still replied: "Although it is a scorpion, I think about it; Who calls my heart, plain clothes like clouds......"

He smiled calmly. However, Le Lingzi could see that he was quite a little delirious. Of course, it's not that I'm interested in Meidi behind me, but my mind isn't here at all.

"What's going on?" She asked inwardly.

"Nothing." Zhao Wuxian smiled and reassured her.

But the doubts did not dispel her heart, and if she looked closely, she could even see some blood stains on the corners of the guard's armor. It seems that this major life event has just begun, and it is facing all kinds of difficulties.

However, she still pedaled calmly, the car started slowly, and after three weeks of turning in place, he took the reins of the car in his hand and slowly drove forward.

……

"The ceremony of suing the temple is tomorrow, and today is the ceremony of returning to the dormitory to perform the joint bond......"

Zhao's etiquette has already informed Zhao Wuxian of the procedure, Zhao Wuxian can tolerate the attack of assassins when he is alone, but once the bride pedals, he is not allowed to make the slightest mistake along the way, the street is tightly guarded, and the road is safe and sound, until last year, when the waterfront palace room was built for the two, which is their new house.

The car came to a halt, and the wind blowing from the river lifted the curtains of her car, and people looked at her like a white flower in the wind, and everyone was amazed by the bride's elegance and calmness.

But Le Lingzi also faintly heard the whispers of the Jin guests.

"The one in the middle is the bride?"

"Isn't it? Although she can't see her face clearly, the woman that a gentleman can see must be as beautiful as she is! ”

"Do you need to ask? Didn't you see the stars holding the moon? ”

"Hey, but it's weird, why is the future lady's clothes not as exquisite as Congdi?"

"Hey, that's right, it's plain white, and I don't even have some color."

She was stunned for a moment, it seems that these Jin people who like black and red are not used to the customs of the remnants of Yin Shang. I remember that the Fu Mu of the Song Kingdom once fondly recalled a thousand years ago, Emperor Wuding married a good woman, "the white one, my clothes are also", white is the purest color, the bride wears!

However, only after Zhao Wuxian glanced around, the guests were all silent, at noon today, the general of the Lu State had just suffered an unknown number of assassinations in his life, but he was calm and let the ceremony go as usual.

Wuxian turned back to the bride, and the two could not join hands now, but were dragged by a piece of plain cloth and entered the bedroom together.

Although the Jin people like black and red, but Zhao specially expressed respect for the customs of the old country of Yin Shang, not only the bride's clothes used plain white, but also the inside and outside of the dormitory did not have the bright red of later marriages, it was dusk, but Zhao Wuxian had a feeling.

He walked frankly in front, but Le Lingzi walked cautiously, his eyes staring at his back. Because any detail is related to her status in this family, she must not make jokes.

There is such a story in Weiguo, a nobleman in Weiguo married the bride of the Song Kingdom, and after the bride got into the car, she asked: "Whose horse is the horse on both sides?" The Emperor said, "Borrowed." The bride said to her servant, "Whip the horses that pull the lass on both sides, and run the horses in the middle, so that you will not be scourged." When the car arrived at the door of the bridegroom's house, and when she helped the bride out of the car, she said to the old woman who was giving her the bride, "Put out the fire in case it catches." When he entered the new house, he saw Chungmi's left mortar, and said, "Move it under the window." so as not to disturb those who come and go indoors. ”

As a result, the host family thought she was ridiculous and took it lightly.

What the Song bride said these times. It's all to the point, but it's inevitable that people will laugh at it, because the bride has just passed the door, and she said these things too early.

Therefore, Le Lingzi followed his duty and his position, under the traction of Zhao Wuxian. tremblingly walked through the whole process, from a girl to a woman.

……

The wedding customs of the Spring and Autumn Period were very different from those of later generations, although the Zhao family had many guests at the banquet. But even if it is a loved one, they will not come to disturb a couple today. The night of the wedding is a matter for two people, and only after the things that need to be done will they go to the temple together to meet their father, brothers and sisters the next day. Represents the bride officially joining the clan.

So today's wedding. It's serious, it's relaxed, it's serious because of the cumbersome rituals, and it's easy because most of the night it's two people who get along in private.

When they entered the church, they saw that the praiser (the assistant prostrate) had already set up a feast, a tun, and a bean. Zhao Wuxian asked Lingzi to sit first, and the two sat opposite each other, and the groom was in the west. Facing east, the bride is in the east. Facing West. They looked at each other, and the concubine served on the side, not daring to set foot in the space of these two people.

They sat still, waiting for the sunset to darken, for the night to fall.

The groom is dressed in a heroic dress, and the bride is plain, her veil has been removed, and she wears a phoenix crown, but during this time, the two cannot speak, only communicate through eye contact.

It could be seen that Zhao Wuxian was a little worried, but he still tried to smile at her, raising his palms to signal her not to be nervous, and not to be impatient.

They want to eat together, they all sacrifice first and then eat, just like the Westerners in later generations prayed to God before dinner, and they also prayed to their own Haotian God, praying for a lifetime.

When the meal is full, he begins to prepare to drink the wine. The praiser washes the lord, first the groom, then the bride. The first two times are used for the knight, and the third time is used for the third time.

卺, that is, the gourd (gourd) is two, which means that the two people are divided into two, and the union is one, and the husband and wife are together. Later generations called it "Hehuan wine" and "handover wine".

By the third cup, they were so close that their limbs met, their eyes were so close that they gently brought their own to each other's lips. The color of the wine is clear, the taste is mellow, and after the nectar is entered, the bride's face suddenly turns red, but in the eyes of the man, it looks more and more beautiful and sultry.

Eat and withdraw food. The queen has a reclining seat for the bridegroom in the west, and a reclining seat for the bride in the east.

As the groom's official, Zhao Wuxian had to continue to deal with the guests, while Le Lingzi sat on the edge of the bed in the cave room, his head lowered.

Two arm-thick butter incense candles reflect the light in the cave room. The silk and utensils given by the Marquis of Jin and the Duke of Song were placed in front of the desk, and the plain wedding tent was hung on the edge of the six-legged bed by two gold hooks.

In the new house, in addition to Le Lingzi, there is also the married woman Kongjiao, who is a little more nervous than the bride, and she just stands in place like a wood sculpture and does not dare to speak.

Le Lingzi sat quietly on the edge of the bed, her breathing was soft and delicate, she seemed calm, but in fact, her hands were twisted together, showing that she was not calm at all.

It has been almost six years since Zhao Ying and Le Qi hit it off and signed a marriage contract for them. In the days when Song Guo silently kept filial piety for his father and waited for Zhao Wuxian's three-year appointment, Le Lingzi often worried about his safety so much that it was difficult to sleep at night, afraid that this marriage would finally fall to the point she was worried about.

During the Song Rebellion, she almost thought that the story was going to end in tragedy, but Zhao Wuxian surprised everyone, turned the tide of the Song war, and saved both her and Nanzi.

Now, the marriage contract that has been waiting for many years has finally reached the final step.

But what about in the future...... Le Lingzi didn't dare to think about it, but he couldn't help but think about it.

The future husband is ambitious, and his fierce life is destined to be a test for Le Lingzi and for his longevity. After a thousand years, the flowers bloom in a moment, the scenery and beauty are all left on the water side, behind the romance that the world admires, can only know the warmth and cold......

……

Waiting, afraid, she had no concept of time, and she didn't know how long it had been, maybe half a moment, maybe an hour.

"Squeak", it was the groom who entered the room, and Kong Jiao, who was like a sculpture, retreated with relief and closed the door lightly outside.

There were only two people in the room, and Le Lingzi felt that his heart was beating hard, and he didn't know if the person who came over heard it.

Zhao Wuxian saw Le Lingzi, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, stiff and stiff, feeling a little cute.

"How?" He walked over. I took her hand and found that they were cold to the touch and shivering. couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, "Isn't Shaojun Mo afraid?" “

Le Lingzi did not deny it, but nodded seriously.

"I'm really scared."

"When the gentleman came to the pavilion to welcome his relatives today, he seemed to encounter something?"

"Of course, I met a few daring little people......"

Zhao Wuxian didn't hide it from her, and briefly told her about the assassination at noon today, only omitting the fact that he deliberately gave the assassins a chance.

"Assassin...... There are always people who want to take people's lives in this way......" Le Lingzi bit his lower lip. There was not only worry in her eyes, but also hatred, her father Le Qi was assassinated by the assassins on the sheep intestine mountain!

"Don't worry. They can't hurt me, and I have never forgotten the grudge of the woman! ”

"Actually, it's not this ...... I'm most worried about," she shook her head. Said: "Because the gentleman is invincible." Everything has its own plans. ”

She raised her eyes and looked at Zhao Wuxian seriously: "After tonight, I am willing to accompany my husband through ups and downs, take care of your family, and give birth to an heir for you. Siqi" said, Tai Ji Hei Huiyin, then Bai Si male ......"

The white girl on the side of the deer garden in the lower palace glanced at it in shock. In the blink of an eye, she will become the wife and mother of the quiet and peaceful, Deyin Kong Zhao......

Listening to Le Lingzi's complaint, Zhao Wuxian was very moved. What he values for Le Lingzi is this tenacity and generosity. She has always been elegant and calm, whether it was the time when Le Qi was detained, or the time when Zhao Ying fainted, or the time when the Song Dynasty was in turmoil, and the time when she was surrounded by rebel regiments.

In addition to his feelings for this woman, it was precisely because of her that Zhao Wuxian accepted this political marriage calmly. It is very rare to meet a girl who is filial to her parents and has a good heart, and she can't let go when she meets her.

What's more, she is the best candidate to be the Zhao family's housewife in troubled times, and when the war is raging, it is not only men who need to be strong, but also women.

However, Le Lingzi's next sentence made him embarrassed.

"I'm only afraid of my husband's heart, so I'm not here ......"

Zhao Wuxian's forehead was in a cold sweat, his wife was very smart, this girl in the show, she seemed to understand everything.

He didn't want to explain too much, but sat down beside his wife and forced her hand over and held it in his palm. The other hand held her small chin strongly, turned to face him, looked deeply into the pair of intelligent eyes, and kissed it.

……

Her lips left and she was overwhelmed by the kiss, and Zhao Wuxian's hand reached into her waist again.

Le Lingzi didn't dare to move, and closed his eyes tightly.

She is no stranger to the affairs of men and women, not to mention that before she got married, she was taught men and women by the Fumu. It is said that in those old bamboo slips that describe ancient medical skills, there are some "plain women's techniques" that are also taboo for the master and doctor Bian Que, but she also blushed and recited them one by one as necessary knowledge.

But at this moment, she had to experience it herself, she was soft, and she could only endure her shyness, but she still let Zhao Wuxian untie her skirt for her and remove her clothes one by one.

"My heart is here tonight, and that's enough."

This sentence made her suddenly lose the desire to resist, the candlelight went out, and the wedding night began.

……

The newlyweds were alone in the dormitory, while in another place, the banquet was in full swing.

Night has fallen, the main hall is brightly lit, the torches outside the hall are all lit, and the candlelight in the hall can be seen everywhere. After the guests were at the desk, the guests who were entering the door left their swords and weapons outside, and the names and titles were notified in turn by the priest, and then escorted by the guards through the wide hall. The side seats were full of musicians, including bellsmiths, flutes and musicians.

Zhao Ying laughed at the flattery of the guests at the chief, and Handan Wu and Zhao Luo sat on Zhao Ying's left and right hands, which was supposed to be a kind of grace, but Handan Wu was just sullenly drinking.

When Zhao's Youji came to announce that the bride and groom had entered the cave room, the guests got up and chanted poems and praised:

"Mantis feather, stingy. Yier descendants, vibrate! May the Chinese military have a happy heir and grandson as soon as possible! ”

"Full!" After everyone finished singing, Zhao Ying announced with joy on his face.

The erectors hurriedly stepped forward to pour the sake into the wine cups of the guests, and Zhao Ying raised one hand: "Have fun with the second and third sons!" ”

Zhao Luo also clasped his hands with joy: "May the Zhao family have a hundred generations!" Everybody said that.

Hundreds of wine cups rang at the same time, announcing that the wedding banquet had entered a climax, and Handan Wu did the first one like the others, and when he sat down, he called people to fill it again.

But he only tasted the delicacies that were served, and then pushed the food away, and his face was slightly blue, as if he was sick.

"Bad taste?" Zhao Luo was gobbling it up on the side, the best thing in their Wen County was not the soldiers, but the cooks and seasoning Yongren, he was extremely confident in this.

"I don't have much appetite today, so I'd better drink more." Handan Wu smiled reluctantly and cautiously glanced at Zhao Ying, who was not far away.

He was worried that after this marriage, he had to be forced to go to Xintian to sue Fan and Bank of China.

Thinking of this, he got up tremblingly, planning to congratulate Zhao Ying again, so that he could feel more at ease.

However, as soon as he walked out of the feast, he felt that his legs and feet were weak, and he fell to his knees with a bang, and the wine was spilled on the ground.

"What's the matter, Dr. Handan?" The guests next to him hurriedly came out to help, and the guards in the hall also looked at this side vigilantly.

"It's nothing, it's nothing......" Handan Wu got up with the help of others, looked at the soaked floor with some annoyance, and planned to pick up the wine jug again and pour it again.

However, just as he bent over, he grabbed the hem of his shirt tightly, causing a violent cough!

He fell, and the whole feast was overturned, and the ritual utensils and dishes fell to the ground in a disorder, and the dancing concubines who danced beside him jumped away with a cry of surprise, and the tunes of the drummers were disrupted.

This time, even Zhao Ying's eagle-like gaze swept over, with a trace of unhappiness on his face.

Half of the people around them stood up, wondering what was going on, and the black-clad guards had already gathered around.

Handan Wu couldn't stand up anymore, his face became redder and redder, and his hands tried to touch the wine jug and wine cup, but his eyes were white, and he curled up like a hot prawn! There was a terrible wail, but at last it fell silent.

The people next to him began to exclaim, and Zhao Luo and the others gathered around him, looking at Handan Wu with fearful eyes.

In the end, it was Zheng Long who strode over, he turned Handan Wu over, but saw that his body was straight, it was as hard as a rock, and his face was red, the whites of his eyes were prominent, and his expression was terrifying.

Zheng Long put his finger in front of Handan Wu's nose and gently probed, and then waved his hand casually to let the guards step forward and lift Handan Wu down.

"Dr. Handan is drunk." He stood up with ease and declared with commonplace.

The faces of the guests who were friendly with the Zhao family were relieved, and the noise sounded again, and they all returned to their seats, only the uncle and nephew of the Zhi family looked over and over again.

But when Zheng Long walked to the ear of Zhao Ying, who stretched out his hand to summon him, he was silent for a while, but he said these words:

"Lord, he's dead......"
