Chapter 154: Du Shuyin's wedding
When Song Yi came out of the inner hall of Yonghe Palace, her clenched hands relaxed, and her back was already soaked.
It was still Youxi's father-in-law who sent her out.
"Princess Anle, as the saying goes, 'good birds choose trees to perch, and virtuous ministers choose the lord to serve', standing in the right team can have no worries."
"Thank you father-in-law for reminding me, I'm used to being lazy, and I never like to play a game of standing in line with others."
You Xi saw that Princess Anle didn't know what to do, so she turned around and left.
Song Yi left Yonghe Palace.
Just outside the door, the real king and Xiao Hei were waiting there.
Song Yi hurriedly stepped forward, looked at the real king, and laughed.
"Are you waiting for me?"
"Hmm," Zhu Xi nodded.
Song Yi was very moved in her heart, obviously the man was afraid that she would have an accident in Yonghe Palace, so he was waiting for her outside.
"Let's go" Song Yi naturally took the man's hand and walked towards the outside of the palace.
The two had a very tacit understanding and didn't have to make it clear.
After coming out of the palace, Song Yi told Zhu Xi about the threat of the imperial concubine Gao.
Zhu Xi naturally understood the ambition of Emperor Gao's concubine, and was not too surprised.
However, Zhu Xi did not tell Song Yi about King Liang letting him choose one of the two.
I didn't mention the incident of meeting King Liang in the palace.
After Song Yi returned to Huifangyuan, he had a period of happy life.
There are countless rumors in the capital, and there are a lot of fresh gossip every day, most of which are news about wealthy families, and there is no shortage of fragrant and exciting stories.
The people like the new and hate the old, and Song Yi's rumors of "treason" and "marriage escape" disappeared with the emperor's decree on the marriage period.
Originally, in order to survive for the true king, the emperor arranged for the true king and Princess Anle to marry on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. However, after Princess Anle attended the banquet, she was attacked on the way home, and then disappeared for more than three months, and the marriage between King Zhen and Princess Anle was delayed.
In order not to conflict with the marriage of the three princes, the marriage of the real king could only be postponed to the auspicious day of the zodiac on the sixth day of the sixth month of June.
As for the attack and disappearance of Princess Anle.
Soon the "official" version came out.
In the "official" version, Princess An Le was implicated by the real king and was attacked.
It turned out that someone didn't want the real king to live, and wanted to kidnap Princess Anle to prevent the real king from succeeding.
Princess Anle's carriage was frightened, rampaged, and ran all the way to the uninhabited mountain forest. In order to save his life, the vault fainted. Rescued by the medicine girl who collected medicine. Due to the severity of his injuries, he was in a coma for three months before waking up. That's why I didn't return to Beijing after more than three months.
When Song Yi first heard this rumor, he really admired these people who made up stories.
Each of these key pieces of information responds to previous rumors, but none of them are true.
It was not Princess Anle who "ran away from marriage", but someone wanted to harm the real king and kidnap Princess Anle; was not rescued by the Jurchens, nor did he leave the territory of the Qianchao, but was rescued by the "medicine girl" of the Qianchao; Even the person who saves people is required to be a "woman", which shows how rigorous this official "explanation" is!
As for the fact that in Youzhou City, the real king appeared with her, because not many people knew, it was not mentioned in the "explanation".
People like conspiracy theories, so this explanation deliberately throws out a "conspiracy".
Someone doesn't want the real king to live! This news is enough to satisfy the people who eat melons.
As for the bad rumors about Song Yi, no one has mentioned them.
Song Yi is also happy to relax, and he is at ease to be an idle person in Huifang Garden.
The new date of the marriage has been confirmed, and it is now the beginning of April, and the divorce period is still two months away.
The preliminary preparations have already been prepared, and besides, everything has been arranged, and Song Yi does not need to do it himself.
Song Yi eats, drinks and jokes all day long, which is very comfortable.
On the eighth day of the fourth month, King Zhen kept his promise and arranged for Song Yi to travel.
On that day, the capital was lit up with lights, and it was very lively.
Because it is a "Christmas party", a Buddhist event, everything is full of Buddhist elements.
Song Yi herself is not a Buddhist, but there are elders in the family who believe in Buddhism, and she has heard a lot.
In her opinion, this "Christmas party" is just a Buddhist holiday.
Devout Buddhists fast on that day, bathe, change clothes, burn incense and recite sutras.
The ordinary people who participate in the grand event will also be elegant and choose to eat vegetarian food.
Businesses with flexible minds will also hold lantern festivals, release lightboats, and pray that the deceased will ascend to Elysium as soon as possible, hoping that the living will be safe and prosperous.
All in all, it was a very lively day.
Song Yi rarely went out of the house with the real king, so he was naturally very happy.
In addition, accompanied by the true king, naturally there is no need to crowd people with others, and he will not only see his head, but not any excitement.
If it were someone else, he would naturally feel that the arrangement of the real king was very intimate.
Song Yi felt that he was "not in the WTO", but he did not have the feeling of being there.
It's just that the real king is afraid that there are too many people and Song Yi will be injured, so he insists very much.
Song Yi naturally understood, so he didn't object anymore.
It was the first time to participate in such a grand national gathering, even though Song Yi and his party hugged each other and were very restrained, she still felt that she was involved and very satisfied.
After the Christmas party, April 28, is the wedding day of the three princes.
Because Song Yi changed the wedding date, he decided to attend Du Shuyin's wedding in person, and first made psychological preparations for himself in advance.
On the day of Du Shuyin's wedding, Song Yi was sweating profusely in the crowd of spectators.
April has already begun to heat up, and royal weddings are full of pomp and circumstance.
The prince's wedding is a big marriage, and he is married to a concubine, which is naturally even more grand.
The third prince, Zhao Hongli, already has a mansion outside the palace, and on the day of the wedding, the entire greeting procession is ten miles long.
Honor guards, greeting relatives, flower bridges, and bride price, the people of Beijing stand on both sides of the road, all silently write down the number of bride price.
The crown prince and the second prince have already been married, and the third prince naturally has a precedent for comparison.
"Is the count clear? How much to lift? ”
"One Hundred and Twenty Lifts"
"I remember that the prince's wedding was one hundred and eighty, and the second prince was also one hundred and eighty. One hundred and twenty for the three princes, isn't it a bit ......?"
The man said vaguely and ominously.
"Is there any doubt about that? What kind of characters are the crown prince and the second prince, one is the prince of the middle palace, the other is the concubine of the high emperor, and the third prince is just born to an unfavored concubine"
"Shhhh
Two ordinary people can judge the three princes, which shows how embarrassing the status of the three princes is!
Song Yi was invited by Du Shuyin to participate in the send-off in Du Mansion.
Du Shuyin completely lost the resistance after the banquet today.
When I saw Song Yi, I was still as enthusiastic as usual and asked her how she was injured after falling from her horse.
However, it is not the turn of the two to catch up, and today is the wedding, Du Shuyin is very busy.
Song Yi saw that the other party didn't have the heart to talk to him, so he left from Du Shuyin's boudoir.
To be honest, before coming, Song Yi still had a problem in his heart. How much does Du Shuyin know about the affairs of the three princes?
But after seeing the other party, Du Shuyin did everything as usual, and his attitude towards Song Yi did not change, so Song Yi felt a little more at ease.
The three princes were heroic, sitting on a high-headed horse, and led the welcoming team to Du Mansion.
Du Shuyin's elders naturally didn't dare to take their identities and make things difficult for the third prince, and politely handed over their daughter to Zhao Hongli.
Zhao Hong's etiquette is dignified, although he is eight years older than Du Shuyin, but he is not too disobedient.
The people around him were happy, but Song Yi felt that this ancient marriage was too inhuman.
At such a young age, a woman must marry a wife.
If you don't do well, you will get pregnant immediately when you become a parent, and you will not have fully grown up at a young age, so you will have to take on the responsibility of husband and child.
Not to mention the three insurmountable "mountains" of "following the father at home, marrying from the husband, and the husband from the son".
For a lifetime, he was raised in a deep boudoir since he was a child, and he got married after he got married, and he gave birth to children after he got married, and he couldn't get out of that wall for the rest of his life. It's just a matter of moving from one wall to another.
Song Yi thought a lot, and his thoughts about watching the excitement slowly faded.
However, Du Shuyin's wedding was still completed very decently.
I heard that in order to compensate Du Shuyin, Du Fu almost did everything to marry Du Shuyin, the bride price of the three princes was 120 lifts, and the dowry of the Du family was 118 lifts, which was only two less than the bride price.
There are eight more than when the prince and the second prince got married, which shows the Du family's love for Du Shuyin.
And after Song Yi heard about it, he was even more puzzled, since the Du family attached so much importance to Du Shuyin, why would they let her marry the third prince?
