This is a festive Mid-Autumn Festival, and the smooth operation of the war and the return of the prince undoubtedly make the whole world full of expectations for Daming.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhou Huchen and the princess's faint ceremony is undoubtedly also a huge attraction, according to the regulations, the horse and the horse's relatives cannot be officials. Therefore, the horses are generally selected from the families of commoners or low-ranking officials, and the families whose children are selected can no longer be officials among their close relatives, and even those who are already officials have to retire home.

The reason why the horses and their relatives cannot serve as officials is to prevent the princes, nobles, and ministers from doing evil and endangering the regime by taking advantage of the status of royal in-laws. Therefore, the horse generally does not come from an official family, and he himself will not be a talent who can be a man of literature and peace and martial arts, and even a little talent, hope to be an official, or a family member who wants to be an official does not want to marry a princess.

The current situation is actually equivalent to returning to the situation in the early Ming Dynasty, where the princess married to a powerful noble family. The reason is very simple, Zhou Huchen's colt is very unusual, and it is very unusual. Zhou Huchen and his son held the strongest army of the Ming Dynasty, and this army was too important to the royal family at this moment, and Zhou Huchen became a special case.

The royal marriage ceremonies and procedures were not fundamentally different from those of the common people, except for being slightly complicated and solemn.

Zhou Huchen, who has always been unrestrained, has now become a puppet, and all kinds of etiquette and procedures are accompanied by people, and Zhou Huchen needs to take the princess over and welcome him into the Horse Mansion.

Under normal circumstances, princesses favored by the emperor generally have their own princess mansions, and the concubines are nothing more than vassals in the palace. The princess has her own fiefdom, which is equivalent to the state treatment, in addition, the emperor will also give slaves when the princess marries, and the number of these slaves is not limited, so the princess marries a lot of servants and goods to dowry. In addition, when the princess marries, the emperor will definitely build a new mansion for the princess. Some of these new mansions were newly built on land, and some of them were completely demolished and rebuilt, so the princess married and the dowry was very rich. That is to say, the princess married with a large amount of property and entered the door with the officials, officials, and servants, so the house where the horse was lived lived in the princess's mansion, and all the wealth of the princess's mansion, the officials, and the slaves, belonged to the princess and were directly commanded by the princess. Therefore, the status of the horse in the princess's mansion is similar to that of a vassal, and there is no sovereignty at all.

And the princess generally does not live in the princess's mansion, and if the concubine wants to see the princess, he must bribe the princess's female official. The Ming Dynasty stipulated that after the princess got married, she must send a female official to her to manage the affairs of the princess. And the princess, who is nominally married, actually only spends one wedding night in the princess's mansion, and has to move back to the palace specially designed for the harem to live. The empty princess's house was the only one who lived, and if the princess and the princess were to meet and have a relationship, the princess had to rush into the palace to meet her. However, such an old female officer. The most unaccustomed thing is, of course, the scene between the princess and the colt. Therefore, if the concubine wants to enter the palace to meet the princess and enjoy the love of husband and wife. is bound to be harassed by this "housekeeper's wife" old female official. If the princess and the colt did not come out with a lot of real money and bribes, they would not have been able to pass their pass at all, and they would not have seen their husbands (wives). As a matter of fact. Even if you bribe the housekeeper's mother-in-law, the concubine and the princess can't meet often, Cheng Zhu Lixue, which is prevalent in this era, "save the principles of heaven and destroy people's desires", and the concubine and the princess are often talked about when they meet.

Zhou Huchen is still a special case, although there is still a palace of Princess Zhu Shuhuan in the palace, but Princess Zhu Shuhuan does not have her own princess mansion, according to the wishes of the queen mother and the emperor, Zhu Shuhuan must go to live in the palace of the concubine.

The scene of welcoming relatives is not grand, the lively and festive has been continuing, and there are thousands of empty alleys in Nanjing. Calling and hugging, Zhou Huchen ran to the noon gate of the Forbidden City under the guidance of a group of people and horses, and then offered the ninety-nine gifts, this procedure is called a gift.

After the people of the Zongren Mansion received it, they entered the palace, and then presented gifts such as wild geese at the east gate and waited in the east gate. This process is very long, in addition to various etiquette, the princess also has to go to the queen mother, the emperor, the queen and the biological mother to say goodbye, accept the admonition, and then the princess must cry, there is no difference from the people, this is the most conventional program - crying marriage.

The princess bid farewell to the queen mother and the emperor, and then sat in the palace instead of a sedan chair; Color. When the princess leaves the palace, she must go through the east gate, descend at the east gate, and then change to a sedan chair. In this process, Zhou Huchen only needs to do one thing, lift the sedan curtain and let the princess enter the sedan chair. This transfer ritual has a deep meaning; It means that Zhu Shuhuan is not a princess today, but a bride.

Soon after, the eunuch and the deacon school guard carried them out of the palace. The princess relied on the lead, the school guard held eight pairs of lights, ten pairs of torches, paved the road with red felt, and the royal nobles, wives, officials, and wives who accompanied the escort were accompanied by chariots and horses, and the guards wearing auspicious clothes rode horses to keep a certain distance from the send-off brigade in front of the guide, and the escort rode horses to escort in the rear.

The people along the road were crowded with people, cheering one after another. These people are enthusiastic, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see the princess get married, and you can also witness the true face of this world-famous concubine Zhou Huchen, which makes everyone who watches the excitement fall into a semi-crazy state.

The road was still slow, and the ceremony was held rather than the wedding, which meant that the bride needed to arrive at the same time as dusk.

In the sound of firecrackers, the sedan chair and the huge send-off team arrived at the Horse Mansion, which was very close to Zhou Yuji's mansion, and the streets of Nanjing were not wide.

According to the regulations to get off the sedan chair, the bride entered the horse house, today's biggest attraction is actually the worship hall, countless officials and people are waiting in the bar to wait to see the excitement.

Because according to the system of the guild, the marriage of the princess is the same as the folk etiquette, and the bride and groom have to perform eight prostrations, which include worshipping the parents and the husband and wife, and then waiting for the auspicious time to perform the joint ceremony. The princess is noble, and the princess is the lord of the princes with the same surname, so she is called the princess. This rule exists, but in fact it is often not enforced, especially when husband and wife worship each other and the second day of worship to the aunt, which is just a statement, and the princess generally does not worship back and forth.

Today's focus is whether the princess Zhu Shuhuan really wants to worship, or simply use the Wanfu ceremony.

This suspense did not last long, when Yizan announced that he would worship heaven and earth, this process was a must-worship, and the princess knelt down. The most critical moment came, worshiping Gaotang, Zhou Huchen's father Zhou Yuji was not there, and Gaotang had only one, his mother Liu.

When Zhu Shuhuan worships down, all the suspense is gone, this princess is a halfway princess after all, not the emperor's own child, she doesn't have that kind of confidence, maybe this is the royal family has arranged haode, Zhu Shuhuan must worship, and worship decently.

Husband and wife also have to worship, the princess Zhu Shuhuan obviously accepted the full set of etiquette, she knelt down first, and then Zhou Huchen knelt down, the princess did not violate the rules at all, Zhou Huchen got up first, and then the bride got up. This process has revealed a message, the princess is very low-key, and the royal family has already arranged it, which can be regarded as giving the Zhou family enough face.

The following is the cave room, and after tossing for a long time, Zhou Huchen finally asked the beauty to hug him. (To be continued......)
