The wedding was held the next day as scheduled, the whole Liucheng was decorated with lights, the four city gates were hung with red lanterns and red silk tie flowers, the original potholed streets in the city were also repaved with sand, and the pedestrians were also increased, and from time to time there were children playing on the roadside, which seemed to be very lively.

Especially in the northern part of the city, the residents of every household have free time, so they stand in front of the door, watching the busy crowd in and out of the government office are busy hanging lanterns, decorating door decorations, draped silk and hanging colors, laughing and talking with each other.

"Did you hear that...... This new army envoy is very young, but he is amazing, he is in his twenties, younger than my eldest man, do you guess whose daughter is the bride he married? ”

"I don't know! But yesterday I saw that the girl's family brought a lot of dowry, but it was terrifying......"

"That's right! The bride is the princess of King Xi, can the dowry not be much? ”

"That's that...... It is said that the new military envoy drove away the Bohai people and married Princess Xiwang, and this Liucheng will be peaceful in the future. Recently, the fang has been asking us to reclaim more wasteland, and I see that this time it will work, and there will be no Shanbei Hu people to rob it. ”

"Come on! How profitable can you be from farming, now the residents in the city are opening shops, and it must be more than what you can earn by planting those acres of land......"

"Oops...... That's right! Tell me about it...... What kind of store is this......"

The common people are not ignorant, Zhuang Yi's series of actions to clean up the households and manage the people after taking Yingzhou, and then today's wedding, let them see new hope, more will care about their own lives, Zhuang Yi's wedding is just a conversation after dinner.

At dusk, the streets were crowded with people, and the only three or four liquor stores in the city were full, because today, except for the soldiers who took turns on duty, all had a day off, and the curfew was lifted, allowing the whole city to party all night long.

Zhuang Yi has been busy with the resettlement of the Murowei people all day, more than 20,000 people can only live in tents at present, but they bring very few cattle and sheep, and they need a lot of food every day.

These are all official affairs, his wedding, the most important thing is to arrange a banquet for guests, to congratulate all his subordinate civil and military officials, as well as the new township commanders and other small officials in the neighboring townships, as well as some gentry in the city, there are not too many worries, these things are also done, the old people from the cottage and the White Wolf Mountain have lived in the city, and at this time they all took the initiative to come to the door and come to the back house of the government to help Zhang Luo. And with Zhao Qiuling presiding, it is also well organized.

According to the customs of the Central Plains, there are six steps in the wedding, namely Nacai, asking for names, Najib, Nazheng, inviting dates, and welcoming in person, which is called the "six rites", but Zhuang Yi obviously will not do it according to the usual etiquette, and he will also accommodate the etiquette of Xi people. Even if it's a gift!

Even if it is a pro-worship church, it is also cumbersome and complicated, according to the weekly ceremony, the woman is invited from home to the man's house to worship the church, which is called marriage, and in the case of the woman, it is called marrying a woman; If the man marries in the woman's house, he is the son-in-law.

If it is a concubine, it is very pitiful, there is no etiquette procedure, usually a carriage is quietly sent to the door at night, and then the wife decides whether to accept the house, of course, this kind of concubine is also discussed and decided in advance. Therefore, the status of wives and concubines is high, and it depends on how they come to the door.

The auspicious time is almost over, after Zhuang Yi bathed in the orchid soup, Mei Xiang took the maids to comb their hair, tie their hair in a bun, insert a boxwood hairpin, wear a white middle coat inside, and wear a crimson groom Ji dress, which is of course not the kind of round neck and narrow sleeves of the daily day, but a formal wedding dress, that is, a crimson wide robe with a slanted collar and a large sleeve, wearing a five-beam Jinxian crown, a leather belt at the waist, and black black leather boots, this is the Liangguan wedding dress in the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, the wedding of the small people can not afford this outfit, and they can generally only wear black saros, but the color of the clothes is also crimson. And Zhuang Yi is now an official, this is Duan Zhongzhong who let Zhao Qiuling rush out. The number of beams on the Liang-style Jinxian crown, in the Qin and Han dynasties before the Tang Dynasty, was a symbol of the difference in the status and rank of officials, and it was no longer used in the Tang Dynasty, but it was still an important ceremonial dress.

Under the urging of Mrs. Zhang of Duan Zhongzhong's family and each of Zhang Zhen's princes and aunts, Zhuang Yi dressed neatly and went out. At this time, Mrs. Zhang was also going back, and her son Duan Renzhen was also at tonight's wedding, so she could only help here, so she said goodbye to Zhuang Yi and went back.

Zhuang Yi stepped on a big black horse and led a drum band, honor guard and float of more than 20 people, from the side gate of the Chengbei Mansion to the temporary mansion of Princess Ailan in the west of the city, waiting for the bride to go out.

Generally, at this time, the female family should fill the mortar with three liters of millet, which is also the nest mortar of the husk of the millet for the family, a covered well, three catties of the window plugged, and three arrows pinned to the window to drive away ghosts and evil spirits. Then the bride dresses up in the boudoir, dresses neatly, and the groom sings a hypnotic poem before going out, of course, the hypnotic poem can also be done by the guests who come to congratulate him, and then he has to read a car barrier text.

But Princess Ailan is a Xi person, although she also understands some Central Plains customs, Elder Yuda did not mean to follow this etiquette, Zhuang Yi did not wait long, Princess Ailan was dressed in a bright red dress and accompanied by a middle-aged servant woman with six servants.

According to the Tang Dynasty, the wedding dress is a cyan middle coat on the inside and a green skirt on the outside. But Ailan was married according to the etiquette of Princess Xiren, she was dressed in a red peach-shaped crown with rolled eaves, and the black double-layer sideburns with carved gold carved gold hairpins with moire patterns were fixed, and some phoenix-patterned gold ornaments hung down on the golden hairpins, shining under the lights. The fiery red tight-fitting wedding dress with a gold ribbon at the waist makes the body slender and fit, noble and elegant. Under the fair and smooth forehead, the eyebrows are delicate and slender, and the round face is more beautiful and moving through the thin grease powder.

At this time, Zhuang Yi hurriedly stepped forward, bowed down according to the etiquette of the Xi people, and saluted the wedding giver Elder Yuda with his hands on his chest, and saluted Princess Ailan, and then Ailan also returned the salute, in the blessing of Elder Mida, took Princess Ailan's hand, helped her onto the float, and then escorted by Elder Yuda to the Central Plains Han-style worship hall in the Yahou Mansion in the north of the city.

When they arrived at a crossroads, it happened that Sha Gu and Duan Renzhen also welcomed the bride passing by, and they were being stopped by street residents to beg for money, drink and make fun of each other, and make a gift of obstacles. As a result, the three groups of people who greeted and sent off relatives were blocked, and more and more street residents and passers-by and soldiers also boldly joined in, saying auspicious words and laughing and coaxing, and suddenly copper coins strung with red ropes flew all over the sky, and the noisy streets were flooded.

"Lang Jun! Lang Jun ......" Princess Alan in the float was alarmed, and couldn't help lifting the curtain, poking her head out and shouting.

"I'm here......" Zhuang Yi hurriedly approached and said with a smile: "It looks very lively, it's very good......"

"Is this the gift of your Han people? It's so joyful, and I love it too! Alan pursed her lips and smiled.
