Chapter 152: The dragon and the phoenix are pretending to be sincere
Those who are married, they will be good with the two surnames, and the upper will be the temple, and the next will be the successor, so the gentleman is important.
One of the manifestations of a gentleman's emphasis on marriage is the solemnity of the form. There are six ceremonies for the wedding ceremony, and the six ceremonies: Nacai, asking for names, Najib, Najib, Nazheng, invitation, and personal welcome. The process of the Six Rites is a process in which the two families of the two gate valve families of the man and the woman go from strange to familiar, and then form a tacit understanding with each other by cooperating with each other to achieve the goal.
The entire marriage process of Gao Huan, the daughter of Gao Huan, the prince of Taiyuan County, Shizhong, Shangshu Zuo Servant Gao Yang, and Li Zu'e, the daughter of Li Shi of Zhao County and Li Xizong, the Taishou of Shangdang, completely complied with the six rites, reflecting the original intention of "gentlemen" to emphasize marriage. I just don't know who this "gentleman" should refer to. Although the process was a little hasty in terms of time arrangement, the details were basically complete.
Because of the completeness of the process and the exquisite details, after experiencing all this, the groom Gao Yang and the bride Li Zu'e have basically completed the concept that they are already married, and they have changed their roles psychologically. It's just that the process is just too cumbersome.
Until Gao Yang entered the cave room, it was a new round of various etiquette, and Gao Yang only felt that he was being picked up like a puppet. finally finished all the trivial things in the regulations, and all the idle people waited for them to retreat. At this time, there were only two people left, Gao Yang and Li Zu'e.
Everyone thought in their hearts that the second son of the prime minister was a bit stupid, far less than his eldest brother, the general and the prince Gao Cheng. Because no matter what you say to him, he will always stare at you with a blank face, and it will take a long time to seem to understand what you say. Although the general was moody, the second prince didn't know what was happy and what was angry.
Li Zu'e was thinking about these rumors, and was anxiously waiting for the moment when her husband would be alone with her. She only remembered seeing him once in the Manyun Pavilion of Tenglong Mountain in Jinyang. The memory has long been blurred, because that place, that time, belongs to another person in her heart.
Gao Yang was originally absent-minded, but after a few tosses, he was physically and mentally exhausted, and slowly gathered his mind. Hide Yuan Zhonghua's shadow and deliberately think about the person in front of him. Like Li Zu'e, he only remembered the meeting in Manyun Pavilion of Tenglong Mountain in Jinyang, and only remembered that she was beautiful. The only thing I remember is this.
In Gao Yang's heart, there is nothing wrong with the bride. Born in Zhao County, the Li family is a beautiful lady, and it is even rumored that she is a unique beauty in the world of Great Wei, and she is really nothing to make him picky anymore. It just made him feel very strange, and it felt like she was so far away from him.
Li Zu'e raised her head.
In Gao Yang's eyes, a room shines instantly. He couldn't even believe it, he suddenly thought it was a dream. He knew that the eldest brother was so beautiful, and when he saw her in Manyun Pavilion, were they unstained? Or was it because he said inappropriately in a hurry, so the eldest brother pushed her to him? What does the eldest brother think in his heart, will he hate him for taking away his beauty? Gao Yang's heart was upset.
Li Zu'e looked at Gao Yang puzzled. First look at his expressionless face, then surprised, flustered, frightened...... His breathing became short, heavy, as if he had suddenly fallen ill. Li Zu'e didn't know that Gao Yang's heart was already overturned in an instant, so he only called softly, "Husband, ......"
With this soft call, Gao Yang was suddenly stunned. It's like smelling the sound of heaven. Was she calling him? He's already a husband? Then I saw that Li Zu'e was indeed looking at him. She was so beautiful, she was more beautiful than he had ever seen. Looking at him quietly made him relax instantly, and all the pressure in his heart poured down. This glance made his heart settle, and he wanted to hold on to this feeling that gave him a sense of salvation.
Gao Yang trembled and stretched out his hand and found Li Zu'e's hand. Hold the soft and delicate hand in your own hand and hold it tightly in your hand. Looking at Li Zu'e, he froze and asked softly, "What's your name?" "It's a question of the girl's name.
Li Zu'e was in a trance in an instant. But the glimpse of the light soon faded away, and she replied softly, "Moonlight." ”
Gao Yang took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, still holding the moonlight's hand tightly, and nodded slightly.
Moonlight looked at Gao Yang, and everything about him made her incomprehensible. She only knew that he was not the man in her heart, but he was his younger brother, and the most important thing was that he would be her husband in the future.
In the study of the Bohai King's Prime Minister Gao Huan, the lights were completely sleepless.
On the surface, the wedding ceremony of Gao Yang, the second son of the prime minister, was huge, and there was a joyful and peaceful atmosphere. In the study inside, there was a night of fire. The second son of the protagonist of the wedding ceremony, Gao Huan, the father of Gao Yang, the prince of Taiyuan County, the prime minister, Gao Cheng, the eldest brother, the general, and Gao Aocao, the main general of the upcoming westward expedition, studied and argued carefully on the map all night. Mountains and rivers, where to attack and where to defend; With hundreds of thousands of armor, laborers attacked from afar, and fed thousands of miles of food, how to ensure that it is safe; Facing Yuwentai and Guanzhong, ask what you want to do in your heart, whether you can achieve your goal, how to arrange the long-range attack route, where you can defend and where you can abandon it...... There are so many questions to consider.
It was only after a night that the sky was slightly white and all three of them were exhausted, so they decided to pause first.
Gao Aocao followed the general Gao Cheng and said goodbye.
Gao Cheng was not in a hurry to leave, standing in the courtyard to see that it was early in the morning, and he had not returned all night, and suddenly remembered that he had not seen the princess Yuan Zhonghua for several days. But he also didn't see his mother Concubine Lou for many days, so he thought it would be better to go to see his mother first. There is no wind or snow on a winter morning, the sun has not yet risen, and the weather is dark and gloomy, which is the coldest time of the day.
Gao Aocao saw the general Gao Cheng standing in the court for a long time, looking at the back image and pondering something. He came over and asked, "The general has been thinking all night and has exhausted his tongue, and is he still not tired at this time?" There was a hint of sarcasm in his words.
If you talk about breaking the enemy for thousands of miles, no one is Gao Aocao's opponent, but he is not a strategist who hides mountains and rivers in his chest and has a city in his belly. Therefore, I can't get used to Gao Cheng's thoughts, and I think he is too worried. In any case, he still called him "general" and did not openly call out his "nephew" again. Although Gao Aocao is uninhibited, he still has a sense of proportion in his heart. Of course, he could see King Gao's attitude towards the general. Moreover, the young master is the person who will rule the world in the future, and the jokes are indispensable. is the second brother who is cautious, and he will also persuade him in the future, why bother to go against the young master?
"What Uncle Zu said is that when it's time to rest, you naturally have to rest." Gao Cheng only replied to him with a smile.
Gao Aocao was choked on the ground. I don't know what Gao Cheng meant by his words. He wasn't a scheming person in the first place. But this "uncle" made him feel a chill in his heart, and he always felt that something was wrong.
"The hussar general is a person who has been following King Gao for a long time, and I can't call my uncle too much, and the general doesn't need to take it too seriously. King Gao usually likes the general to be calm and happy, his heart is the same, and his frankness is very comparable. If King Gao knows that the general is like this, doesn't the general know King Gao's thoughts? This time the western expedition to Chang'an to quell the rebellion, presumably the generals did not want to bear the prestige of their own distant earthquake. The ancestor of the general's family first tested loyalty, and now he has a brother, Zhongmi I can protect him, but Ji Shi has not been promoted by King Gao, right? And not thinking about the family, the rise and fall of Wangsheji, and now the Great Wei Sheji is all in the general. ”
Gao Cheng's words were neither soft nor hard, and they were reasonable, which clearly made Gao Aocao feel that he was the Optimus Pillar of the Great Wei, and this battle would be due to Sheji. Moreover, Gao Cheng's words also implied many meanings. There are co-optations, warnings, and promises. Gao Aocao only knew the power of this world at this time.
Even the people in the Bohai Palace's palace saw the invincible General Gao Ao Cao retreat like this for the first time.
Gao Cheng was actually very tired, so he ordered people not to follow him, and went to the courtyard where his mother Concubine Lou lived. Thinking that he would be comforted by his mother's soft words and gentle words, this was the most comfortable time in his heart. His mother was also the place where he could rest most easily.
Because I talked to Gao Aocao for a long time, it was not too early, but the sky was still dark and gloomy, and the sky was thick with clouds. Gao Cheng walked to Concubine Lou alone, and when he walked to the door of Concubine Lou's courtyard, where he met his sister Gao Yuanjun last time, he saw his younger sister-in-law Li Zu'e followed by two slaves and maids who also came to Concubine Lou. Li Zu'e also saw him, not knowing whether to advance or retreat, he also stopped at the edge of the bamboo forest where Gao Yuanjun stopped last time, and looked at him from a distance.
Li Zu'e is a beauty who does not need to be decorated with gorgeous clothes, and the real glamorous light moves the world, not to mention that because of the identity of the bride, she came to see Concubine Lou, which is naturally indispensable, and it is the icing on the cake, which adds to her beauty. Gao Cheng, who was originally tired all night and had a splitting headache, was suddenly refreshed and refreshed. He didn't hesitate at all. This made Li Zu'e even more unsure whether to retreat or advance.
"The concubine meets the eldest brother." Although Li Zu'e was extremely flustered, she still calmly performed her salute as a younger brother-in-law.
"Why are there so many courtesies in the inner house, since it is a family, you might as well be frank." The meaning of Gao Cheng's words was too rich, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he approached step by step with an unconcealable smile.
Li Zu'e got up and watched him come step by step. The face that made her miss day and night had a wicked smile on it, full of evil spirit, and it seemed like the naughty young man who teased her when she caught fish in the Dragon Mountain had returned. Only she had never seen the word "serious" in his eyes. Moonlight only felt extremely cold in her heart, and almost burst into tears. She lowered her head and silently took a few steps back.
Gao Cheng refused to let her go. Step by step, he walked in front of her, very close to her. The two men were facing each other, and their bodies were almost close together. Moonlight's heart was beating like a drum, and she could clearly hear her own breathing. And the man's breath filled the tip of her nose, reminding her of his study in the Manyun Pavilion.
The two slaves and maids who originally followed the prince of Taiyuan turned out to be in this house, and they knew the temper of the prince well, and they were used to seeing such things. At this time, he didn't dare to speak, silently took a few steps back, lowered his head and didn't dare to look again.
Gao Cheng had the idea of teasing her again at this time, which made him think it was a very fun game. He looked at the moonlight black bun on his chest, and suddenly reached out and took off the golden step on her head, and said with a smile, "Is this a gift from the second brother?" ”
Moonlight also felt a movement in her head, which made her tremble in fright, not knowing what he was going to do. When he looked up, he had taken off her jewelry, and immediately blushed. This is indeed what her husband put on for her with his own hands, but at the moment he is in his hands, I don't know what he wants. I only saw Gao Cheng playing with the step shake with interest, and he didn't mean to return her at all.
Gao Cheng smiled, "I like it very much, can my brother and sister give it to me?" As he spoke, he put the step in the hem of his clothes.
How can such a close piece of jewelry be given to someone casually, the moonlight was angry and anxious, reached out to grab it, and said angrily, "How can the prince be so rude?" ”
He wasn't rude, he wasn't unintentional, or he wasn't intentional at all.
Gao Cheng didn't dodge at all, letting her hand reach out to his chest, and he looked at her with a wicked smile on his face. Moonlight caressed the hem of his shirt and felt that this was inappropriate, how could she reach into his arms to get something? Gao Cheng took advantage of the situation to hug her waist and let her escape. He smiled and asked, "What, are you reluctant to give it to me?" You go back to the General's Mansion with me, this thing is inexhaustible. ”
Moonlight was shocked by his hug, he didn't expect him to dare to be so bold in his mother's residence, and the two slaves and maids turned a blind eye and let her fall into an embarrassment.
"I am the bride of Taiyuan, eldest brother should not do this to me." Moonlight didn't know what to say to this extremely stubborn son, and she was embarrassed to scold him loudly, after all, it was not a face-saving thing. She could only sink her face and say such things that even she thought were pale and powerless.
"Why are you whispering like that?" Gao Cheng pretended not to hear her clearly, lowered his head, and still held her. But his lips were almost on her cheek.
Moonlight was so anxious that her breath was short, and she couldn't break free. Gao Cheng just remained motionless and looked at her anxiously with a smile on his face.
Moonlight said angrily to the two slaves behind him, "Why don't you go and invite the prince of Taiyuan County to come." ”
Gao Cheng burst out laughing, as if she was telling some big joke.
