Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Great Wedding (I)
Yinshi, it should be the time when the night is the thickest, but the road from the Jin Wangfu to the Honglu Temple is brightly lit and bright as day. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Chen Guang had been sitting in front of the mirror for more than two hours, until this time, the jewelry on his body was completed, and when he put on the golden crown, he heard a gong and drum sound outside, and then someone shouted at the top of his voice: "The auspicious time has arrived." ”
Then, the suona sounded, the drums beat up, and the sound of firecrackers also came in. Chen Guang walked out of the room with Xiao Liang's support.
Countless lanterns illuminated the courtyard, and the light of the candles made people feel a little dazzling.
The servants in the house, as well as the people sent by the palace, were all in the courtyard, and as soon as Chen Guang appeared, everyone cheered.
The men below brought a pure white steed with shiny hair to the middle of the courtyard. Chen Guang's heart suddenly burst out, this is the rhythm of riding a horse?
The problem is, he hadn't even seen a real horse before the crossing, and he had never ridden a horse after the crossing, so why did he have to ride a horse after a kiss? Isn't it good to sit in a sedan chair, everyone? Why don't we walk.
But in the marriage process sent by Yang Rong, he had to ride a horse here, so he naturally didn't dare to ask for a change, so he could only get on the horse.
Fortunately, the posture of turning over and riding the horse is quite passable, and the horse is also well-trained, standing motionless, sitting in the saddle, Chen Guang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Yang Rong led the horse, and Chen Guang rode on the horse, holding the bulge in front of the saddle tightly with both hands, for fear that he would fall off if he was unstable.
He led out of the gate of the Jin Palace, and immediately followed by a red embroidered quilt carried by a green bamboo pole with leaves, and a box containing various gifts.
The last of them, the largest, was also the largest, and very noticeable, the large box was about a foot long, four feet high, and three feet wide, which was a behemoth compared to the others.
On both sides of the street, although it was still late at night, it was full of ordinary people watching the excitement, and in order to ensure safety, the palace had to dispatch the Imperial Forest Army to maintain order.
"Sure enough, it's the emperor's family who got married, this pomp is really big." Seeing this long queue of relatives, everyone was very emotional.
"Wow, that box is so big, guess what's in there?"
Along the way, everyone talked a lot.
It was the first time for Chen Guang to walk on the street at such a height, and as far as the eye could see, both sides of the road were covered with various shapes of heavenly spirit covers.
It was lively all the way, and finally came to Honglu Temple, the courtyard next to Honglu Temple, it was also brightly lit, and it was not lively to play and sing.
The pioneer at the front of the welcoming procession struggled to ring a big gong carried by the two of them, and shouted loudly: "Pick up the bride." ”
Gongs and drums are noisy, and firecrackers are ringing in unison.
Then, about a hundred well-dressed young men came out from behind Chen Guang, and when they arrived outside the gate of the courtyard, they shouted in a neat and loud voice, "The bride comes out." ”
They watched one by one, never stopping, and there was a famous hall called "hypnotic poetry", which did not stop until the bride went out. This is purely for the purpose of setting off the atmosphere.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Guang rode on a horse and began to chant the "Hypnotic Poem" loudly: "Princess Huanyan is expensive, marry the emperor's family." The mother of heaven mixes the powder, and the brother of the day gives flowers. Urge the shop of the hundred sub-tents, and wait for the obstacle of the seven-incense car. By asking if the makeup is not done, the East wants to Xiaoxia. ”
This poem was sent from the palace yesterday, and I heard that it was written by a certain scholar.
When Chen Guang finished reading the poem, the gate of the courtyard opened, and the bride walked slowly with the support of the two maids, and Motuo followed her.
When the bride came out, everyone was even more noisy, and there were two golden boys and girls, scattering fresh petals into the air.
"Min'er is so beautiful today, she is really beautiful." In the live broadcast room, a group of single dogs have already flowed into a river.
"That's natural, it is said that the wedding day is the most beautiful, Min'er was born beautiful, and today is even more beautiful."
"Envy the anchor, what a blessing."
"Anchor, my family wholesales Liuwei Dihuang Pills, do you want to mail you two boxes."
"Upstairs 666"
Not to mention that the live broadcast room was very lively, at this time, a large sedan chair was carried in from outside the crowd, and when it arrived at the gate, the maid helped the bride to sit in the sedan chair. The hypnotic poem stopped, and the suona gongs and drums continued to sound. The welcoming team received the bride, began to turn around, and went to the Jin Palace.
Someone asked, why don't you keep the gifts for your relatives? This is naturally not left, not only that, but the woman also has to bring a lot of things to dowry, which are also carried and sent to the new house.
As for the gift, it was decided a month ago, and the dowry was sent here directly from the palace. The reason why I brought so many things over today is just to show my mother's family and the generosity of the groom's family.
"Finally got the bride, I'll go, it feels different from the current marriage, isn't it to rob the bride, why is there no movement?" In the live broadcast room, someone asked.
Another person said: "They are the wedding of the emperor's family, do you think that it is like you ordinary people, a group of people go to rob the bride, that scene, do you dare to watch?" ”
"That's right."
Chen Guang said: "I think this ancient marriage is much more civilized, you see, what kind of hypnotic poem is this, and the force is suddenly high? It's like robbing the bride and throwing red envelopes, vulgar, vulgar and unbearable. ”
"yes, I don't like it either."
After receiving the bride, the team is even larger, the big sedan chair follows behind Chen Guang's white horse, the suona gongs and drums are lined up on both sides, blowing and blowing, behind the bride, is just carried out from the Jin Palace's dowry, the woman's send-off team with the dowry walks behind, and the whole team stretches for more than a mile.
returned to the Jin Palace, and now at the gate of the Jin Palace, there is a group of children guarding the gate, and these children are all kinds of royal relatives.
"Here comes the bride."
The children all smiled happily when they saw the palanquin coming, because it meant that they were able to get a gift from the bride.
This link tests the future hostess's generosity to her in-laws, which is of course a symbolic meaning. Min'er got down from the sedan chair, and there were already a few more delicate small sachets in her hand, which contained some loose gold nuggets and some longan peanuts and other food.
At this time, the bride wanted to write a "Barrier Article", Min'er had already prepared, and she opened her mouth to come: "Since ancient times, the world has been a good man." The court is a bell, and the family tradition is practiced. Erlang Wei'e, Bingling Biaoxiu. Lady Xianhe, Yuxiu Lanfang. The two are well together, a thousand years of glow. ”
This is the first time she has appeared here as a hostess, which has extraordinary significance, and this "Obstacle Text" is to show her cultivation as a hostess.
After reading the "Barrier Text", she distributed the sachets one by one, and the children got the gifts, and they happily retreated to play.
At this time, the groom Chen Guang had already entered the Jin Palace, dressed in a big red flower, and waited for the bride to enter the door.
Min'er finished reading the "Barrier Car Text" and got back on the sedan chair, which was carried in from the gate of the Jin Wang's Mansion and arrived in the hall. The sedan chair stopped, and immediately a maid brought a mat and put it under the sedan chair. Min'er got out of the sedan chair and had to stand on this mat, and then she took the second step, and someone immediately put the mat at her feet. This ritual is called "turning the table", which means that the bride must not be contaminated with the soil of her in-laws' house until she has completed the ceremony.
So she walked to the door step by step, and there was a delicate saddle on the threshold, and she stepped over from this saddle, and the transfer was over.
At this time, Chen Guang was already standing inside and waiting, but Min'er had an extra fan in his hand, covering his face, revealing only a pair of eyes, a pair of big watery eyes looking around, and finally fixed on Chen Guang's body.
Chen Guang was excited in his heart, and it was finally the last moment, and the dust was finally about to settle after this month.
Although I have seen it many times, but now Min'er is still covered with a fan, Chen Guang wants to see Min'er's true face, and he has to make another "Fan Poem".
And this is not difficult for him, he has already been prepared, he looked at Min'er's eyes, the two looked at each other affectionately, and then Chen Guang slowly spoke: "Don't fan out the painting to cover up the talent of Chunshan." If the reunion is a bright moon, osmanthus must be bloomed. ”
After hearing this poem, Min'er slowly took down the fan in front of her and handed it to the maid next to her. At this point, the bride and groom were finally able to meet, and the tedious kissing ceremony was officially over.
The guests applauded, and Chen Guang took Min'er's hand and bowed in thanks.
"Finally waiting for you, I almost missed you, I met you at the best age, so I didn't let myself down." Chen Guang said softly to Min'er.
Hearing his affectionate words, Min'er finally couldn't help it, tears slipped down instantly, tonight, her mood fluctuated a lot, she left her father, rejoined the arms of another man, and married in a foreign country, no matter which one it was, it seemed that her eleven-year-old little girl could not bear it.
At this last moment, how could she still bear hearing Chen Guang's affectionate confession again? It's just that these tears are tears of happiness, she finally didn't choose the wrong person, and finally met the best man at the best age.
The next thing should have been a hole in the house, but no one dared to make trouble in the prince's cave room, just like when she married the princess just now, there would be no such thing as robbing relatives. In this Jin Palace, those guests were served to drink tea and eat snacks, and when the sky was almost bright, they dispersed.
The courtyard still seemed to be filled with a lively atmosphere, Chen Guang put his arm around Min'er's shoulders, and sat quietly like that, and after a while, a team from the palace would come to pick them up and go to the palace to meet the emperor and empress.
