Chapter 046: Wedding Day

Midsummer has passed, the cold winter has not arrived, Li Xuanba's wedding day, the Southern Sui celebrates together, the people are grateful to Li Xuanba for the merits of the Southern Sui, but also grateful because of Li Xuanba's wedding, the imperial court will reduce the tax of the autumn harvest by one percent.

Horse-drawn carriages and ox carts entered the Jiangdu City in an endless stream, they represented all forces, even Shen Faxing, who had been defeated by Li Xuanba, also sent some congratulatory gifts to try to ease the contradictions between the two sides.

The growing strength of the Southern Sui has made many people feel tremendous pressure.

Li Gou hugged Li Xiaoyu, looking at the countless gold and silver silk piles piled up, envious, and couldn't help but think of the oil and water he fished from the congratulatory gifts sent by the big households in Dongjun when he was in Luoyang.

Although the Thirteen Taibao have noble status, except for Yang Tong, everyone else can be said to be poor, except for the house, they really can't come up with anything that is worthwhile. Fortunately, Yang Tong was prepared, and sent someone to build a pair of double hammers made of meteorite as the main material and gilded on the surface, and sent them to the Zhou State Mansion in the name of the thirteen Taibao brothers.

Other rare treasures such as horses, armor, and pearls and jades were so numerous that they instantly became worthless, not to mention the golden, silver, and jewelry.

In the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan sent someone to send a pair of jade Ruyi, Li Jiancheng sent a painting, and Li Shimin sent a painting of Qianxian, for them, this is already a big deal, but in Li Xuanba's opinion, the pair of jade Ruyi is quite exquisite, and it happens that Yang Ling and Shizuka are one by one, so that he will not make difficulties.

How to distribute the gifts is a matter of later story, Li Xuanba rode a horse at this time, wearing a red wedding dress, and rushed to the eldest princess's mansion with a smile.

In order to reflect Li Xuanba's identity, the team of greeting relatives almost took the avenues of Jiangdu aside, and Li Xuanba's smile was already stiff, like a marionette, following the team.

"I said a long time ago that everything is simple in the big wedding, and Your Majesty is still so grand, isn't this torture?" When he was about to arrive at the eldest princess's mansion, Li Xuanba muttered, he knew that Yang Tong had good intentions, and he didn't really mean to blame in his heart.

"If it weren't for General Zhang's stopping, Your Majesty would still plan to use high-quality brocade silk to pave the way to welcome relatives!" It was rare to see Li Xuanba's appearance, Li Jiuzhi couldn't help laughing, and quipped: "I didn't expect that Gongzi would also have nervous times." ”

When Liang Xiao heard this, he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so he only held his face red.

Li Jiuzhi and Liang Xiao were separated on either side of Li Xuanba and led the horse for him.

Zhang Xutuo, Li Jing, Yuwen Chengdu, and Pei Yuanqing walked side by side, walking in the forefront, opening the way for the team to welcome relatives. The eldest grandson Wuji, Jia Yanfu and others rode horses and lived separately, and the last ones were Luo Shixin, Qin Qiong and Niu Jinda.

In the middle of the team, Fang Yizhi, Li Qifu, Li Qiping, Li Qijian and the girls who returned to Jiangdu from Chang'an exuded the atmosphere of youth.

They still haven't realized that Li Xuanba's big wedding is destined to leave a name for future generations, and their seemingly inconspicuous domestic servants will also follow the prosperity of the Southern Sui Dynasty and become famous for eternity.

Thinking of the smugness, Li Xuanba laughed unconsciously, ignoring Li Jiuzhi's jokes.

Li Jiuzhi was a little surprised, and said in his heart: According to the character of the son, how can he be willing to suffer in words? It's a terrible thing to get married, and it actually makes Childe a different person.

Li Xuanba's appearance is indeed a little silly, others think that he is about to marry two beautiful ladies and be happy, but they can't guess that Li Xuanba is thinking about other things.

"When His Majesty got married, Jiangdu was not so lively." The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the pomp and circumstance around him and said very casually.

"Xuanba heard that His Majesty's wedding didn't even alarm the people of Jiangdu." Li Xuanba put away his smile, nodded and said, "Because of this, the people will feel that he will be a good emperor even more. ”

The emperor is diligent and thrifty, and he is naturally a good emperor in the hearts of the people, but Li Xuanba, as the Duke of Zhou in the Southern Sui Dynasty, has such a standard in his wedding, which will undoubtedly damage his reputation.

The eldest grandson Wuji wanted to remind Li Xuanba of this, but Li Xuanba didn't care, for him, what if it was a little grander? After all, it's a lifetime event.

"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is Your Majesty's aunt after all, and Your Majesty should have no malice in doing this." With Jia Yanfu's intelligence and scheming, he could naturally hear the off-string sound in the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, he thought about it and said in a low voice.

The eldest grandson Wuji was silent for a moment, no longer entangled in the matter, and bowed his head and said nothing.

After noon, the group finally rushed to the outside of the eldest princess's mansion, only to see that the street outside the princess's mansion was surrounded by dense crowds, thousands of guards stopped the people on both sides of the road, and many guards wore civilian clothes, hiding in the crowd, paying attention to the every move of the people around.

The imperial court put on such a big show, not because it was worried that Li Xuanba would be in danger, but because it was worried that Yang Tong, who was blocking in front of the eldest princess's door, would be attacked.

The king of a kingdom himself sat in front of the door to stop the bridegroom, which has not happened since ancient times.

"Zhou Guogong, I have no relationship with you today, if you want to marry my aunt, you can only speak with your ability." After everyone worshiped Yang Tong, Yang Tong said with a smile: "But I believe that with Zhou Guogong's ability, the questions from the civil and military officials should not be difficult for you, right?" ”

"Your Majesty, please let me go!" Yang Tong was able to come in person, Li Xuanba was very moved in his heart, he looked bitter, and said pitifully: "Weichen is a martial artist, how can he compare to the knowledge of your colleagues." ”

"Hahaha." Yang Tong and Li Xuanba are very familiar with each other, of course they will not be deceived by his performance, so they laughed and said: "Zhou Guogong is born with divine power, bravely crowning the three armies, I believe that no one wants to compete with you, as for learning, I have hundreds of officials to help, and you can also ask the people in the palace to help." ”

Li Xuanba still wanted to say something, but when he saw Yang Tong pouting, a minister stepped forward, arched his hand towards Li Xuanba, and said with a smile: "Lord Zhou Guogong, I am offended." ”

Today is the day of Li Xuanba's wedding, no one dares to deliberately come up with a very difficult topic, besides, with the help of the eldest grandson Wuji and Jia Yanfu, who has the ability to stump them?

Everyone made trouble for a long time, and finally Yang Tong saw that it was not early, Li Xuanba had to rush to Cai's mansion, and secretly made a look, and a palace maid entered the mansion to report, under the arch guard of Yang Yuan and more than a dozen maidservants, Yang Ling took small steps and arrived.

Yang Ling was dressed in an emerald green dress, with a golden belt around her waist, a beaded curtain and a bun on her head, her face was blushing, and she looked down at her little feet.

Thinking of a commotion in the audience, Li Xuanba walked to the door, without saying a word, hugged Yang Ling, and then walked to the sedan chair, put her down, and let Yang Ling hide in the sedan chair.

Yang Ling accidentally touched his head when he entered the sedan chair, which caused a burst of laughter, and even Li Jiuzhi, Liang Xiao and others couldn't stop laughing, causing Li Xuanba to roll his eyes. (To be continued.) )
