Chapter Seventy-Five: The Red Wedding
Pei Yutian was a little dazed, looking at Qianqiu innocently with a pair of bright eyes, and didn't understand where to provoke this master. The person in front of him pointed to his eyes, nose and eyebrows very seriously: "I'm ugly? β
Speaking of which, although this lady is not as heavy as other mothers, but if you look closely, her eyebrows are quite delicate, with a pair of willow eyebrows, her eyes are also big round, the bridge of her nose is straight, and her cherry mouth is small.
After looking at it for a long time, Pei Yutian suddenly felt that Qianqiu was quite good-looking, the so-called clear water out of hibiscus, and it was natural to carve and decorate.
"The mother is very beautiful." After the observation, he gave the identification results.
Seeing that this person really looked at it so carefully, and then said so seriously, Qianqiu was embarrassed to worry about others anymore. He simply waved his hand and said, "It's not ugly, let's go in." β
"Yes."
As soon as the two of them turned their heads, they just took a step towards the inner courtyard, and when they looked up, they saw a bright yellow dragon robe flashing at the door of the main house.
Qianqiu paused, pulled Pei Yutian's sleeve and asked, "Did I get dazzled just now?" Do you see there's anyone at the door? β
Pei Yutian rubbed his eyes: "The minister didn't pay much attention, it seems that someone has gone in." β
"That's right." Chiaki shrugged and continued walking.
Han Ziji sat quietly on the chair, while Qin Yang, who was wearing a wedding dress, looked at the emperor, and then looked at the two people who had just entered the door, hey, which one is this singing?
"Minister Pei Yutian greets the emperor."
When Qianqiu saw Han Ziji, she remembered his recent snub, and she didn't want to deal with him very much. Because there were many people, they still knelt down and didn't say a word.
"Get up, Aiqing hard work." The emperor said softly: "Chu Aiqing's wedding, today's etiquette can be put aside, and it is okay not to get drunk at night." β
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Pei Yutian got up, and Qianqiu next to him also got up.
In addition to Chu Yue and Pei Yutian, all she knows about is the emperor and Concubine Hui. But looking at it like this, Han Shishi doesn't plan to recognize her, let her play by herself? That's better.
With Pei Yutian retreating to the side and standing, the important ministers in the hall were still making fun of Qin Yang, it was very lively, and no one paid attention to her.
"Master......" Pei Yutian looked at her strangely: "Do you want to follow the minister all the time?" β
Qianqiu nodded solemnly and said pitifully: "You see, since ancient times, the emperor has been so kind, and now that the emperor has Concubine Hui, I am free-range, so follow you, so as not to get lost." β
Pei Yutian smiled, how could the emperor let her go, if he really didn't care at all, he wouldn't ask him to pick it up in person.
But...
The emperor on the seat was expressionless, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he really didn't open his mouth to reveal the identity of Concubine Jing, so he should act as a guard for the time being.
Before the banquet began, Concubine Hui had already come in with a decanting soup, put it beside the emperor and said: "The concubine thinks, if the emperor gets drunk later, it will definitely be uncomfortable, so the concubine has prepared the decanting soup in advance, and the emperor can drink it with confidence." β
The emperor's cool face finally brought a smile: "Love concubine is hard." β
Concubine Hui covered her mouth and chuckled, and when others looked at it, they all felt that the two emperors and concubines were really affectionate.
Pei Yutian frowned slightly, glanced at Qianqiu next to him, Qianqiu received his eye signal, shrugged his shoulders and whispered: "Don't worry about me, I've long been used to it." β
"The minister thinks that the garden of Chufu is well repaired, does the master want to go and see it?" Pei Yutian asked.
"Wow." Chiaki nodded, and jumped up and down to follow him out.
Out of the corner of his eye, he watched the girl leave with Pei Yutian, Han Ziji gritted his teeth, the teacup in his hand was pinched tightly, and he wanted to open his mouth to stop it, but he couldn't.
He didn't specify her identity, and now he naturally has no qualifications to stop her.
Pei Yutian's temperament he knows, in the end, he has also grown up together, that is, a nerd who abides by etiquette, but he doesn't have to worry about what he and Qianqiu have. But the little thief's temper is also too big, and he hasn't punished her enough to threaten him, so she doesn't want to stay with him for a moment?
It's just... It just doesn't make sense!
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Chu Yue on the side saw some doorways, and gloated and approached the emperor to ask.
Han Ziji glanced at him: "I can give marriage or divorce, don't make fun for me." β
Chu Yue was stunned and sat back in the chair obediently. Niangniang, it's not that the minister doesn't help you, the minister still wants to hug the beauty and return, and he is powerless.
The garden of Chu Mansion is very good, but it is dark, and there is nothing to see. Qianqiu looked at the crowd left and right, pointed to the top of the corridor opposite, and said, "How about going and sitting on there?" β
Pei Yutian coughed lightly: "Master, there is a loss of decency." β
"What are you afraid of, the emperor has been turned on the roof by me and sat on it." Qianqiu moved his hands and feet, and suddenly remembered that there was something in his stomach, but the time was still short, and the bulge was not very obvious.
"You'd better pull me up." Chiaki Road.
Pei Yutian was embarrassed for a while, but he still took Qianqiu around to the back of the firewood room, and then climbed to the roof with the help of a ladder, and stepped on the tiles all the way to the top of the corridor.
There are no people in the corridor here, Qianqiu sits, and when you look up, you can see the sky full of stars, and where there are the fewest stars, a bright moon is in the sky.
Neither of them spoke, Pei Yutian abides by etiquette on weekdays, and in normal times, he will not do such a ridiculous thing as climbing the roof with the imperial concubine.
But today, somehow, seeing Concubine Jing lowering her eyes and not saying anything, he felt a little sympathetic to her. He didn't guess the emperor's thoughts, but it was rumored that the palace only saw the newcomers laughing and didn't hear the old people crying. Climbing the roof will make the person next to you feel better, so let's climb it.
"It's time to worship." Concubine Hui looked at the hour and reminded Chu Yue with a smile: "Lord Chu, don't miss the auspicious time. β
Chu Yue didn't have a good look at Concubine Hui, and he didn't have to look too good when he lowered his head, he only saluted the curtain on her side, and then said, "Please move the emperor to the front hall." β
Han Ziji nodded, stood up, glanced around, and frowned slightly: "What about Pei Yutian?" β
Chu Yue also looked for it and shook his head: "Probably haven't come back yet." β
"Send someone to find it." The emperor's face was slightly gloomy: "Since I came to watch the ceremony, it would be too bad to miss the time." β
"Yes." Chu Yue laughed sullenly and went out to order someone to look for it.
Concubine Hui could only wait in the curtain in the back hall, and she couldn't show up with the emperor, so Han Ziji went to the front hall alone.
"The bride looks like the moon, and the general is so blessed." The matchmaker shook the fan and smiled so much that her face bloomed: "Come on, come on, hurry up and get ready, the auspicious time is coming." β
The firecrackers were all set off, and the two people on the roof were naturally alarmed. Pei Yutian glanced at the family who was looking for people below, and patted his head gently: "It's broken, master, it's time to worship the church." β
Qianqiu came back to his senses: "Worship the church? Let's go down and see. β
Pei Yutian nodded, helped her up the way she came, and hurried to the front hall.
"Worship heaven and earthβ"
When they arrived, the greetings had passed, and the bride and groom had already dressed in their wedding garments and bowed down to the door.
Qianqiu hurriedly pulled Pei Yutian to the side and blended in with the crowd.
The sharp-eyed emperor saw the two of them, so good, they didn't see each other for a while, they were all close to each other, and they were still pulling their sleeves? Ji Qianqiu doesn't understand the rules, and Pei Yutian doesn't understand the rules, right?
Han Ziji took a deep breath, and the bride and groom had already knelt down towards him again: "Second worship high hall-"
He shouldn't have let her out alone today, or he was willing to suppress his temper at that time and pick her up himself. It's not like now, when she stands with other men, tugging at other people's sleeves, but he can't do anything.
"Husband and wife worship each otherβ"
"Reesungβ"
Chu Yue's face was full of smiles, and he pulled the bride and refused to let go: "Married as a husband and wife, there is no doubt about love." Lady, it's polite for your husband. β
The bride with the hijab shyly stepped on him, and the matchmaker next to him smiled from ear to ear: "The groom is really affectionate, come, send the bride into the cave room first!" β
Qianqiu looked at the red wedding hall with envy, looked at the red wedding dress on the bride's body, and whispered: "It's better to be outside, you can wear such clothes when you get married." I married Han Shishi, and I didn't even have a pair of wedding candles. β
The concubines in the palace are naturally unable to wear red wedding dresses, let alone have any candle nights in the cave room, so they can only be announced by the palace people and say that the emperor is lucky. But the other women were very happy about such a thing.
Pei Yutian tilted his head and said, "If the master is the queen, there can also be such a thing." β
Qianqiu was stunned for a moment, looked up and glanced at Pei Yutian in surprise, who knew that he had lost his words, and arched his hand: "Master forgive your sins." β
"It's okay, I forgot if you didn't remind me." Qianqiu pursed her lips: "It is said that the queen is already on the way, but it seems that Han Shishi doesn't want to accept her, so he didn't let people clean up the Furong Palace." If you talk about this posteriority, it is now Concubine Hui's turn, and it will not be my turn. β
Pei Yutian didn't understand the harem dispute, and he could only comfort: "In the emperor's heart, after all, there is still your place." β
Qianqiu nodded, she knew that if she didn't even have the last trace of it, she wouldn't be so stupid to stay, what is the picture? How nice it was to walk with Daddy.
The two of them had been whispering, and in the eyes of the emperor, it was quite dazzling. The banquet opened, and the ministers looked at the emperor's face, and they didn't dare to come forward to toast.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chu Yue, who was in the best mood today, sat next to the emperor, his face was already red, and he said with a big tongue: "Without the emperor, the minister can't marry Panpan, and the minister respects you." β
This is a spring breeze, and the emperor's mood is not very good, and he said with a dark face: "Congratulations to Aiqing." β
"Rejoice and rejoice." Chu Yue was drunk, and he didn't know what Tongxi was about, so he shook his head and said: "It's not easy to get someone you like in your life, and if you can become a dependent, you naturally have to cherish it." β
Han Ziji was stunned for a moment, looked up at the person in front of him, but Chu Yue was not sober at all, after drinking a glass of wine in his hand, he reached out and grabbed the chicken leg on his plate.
