Chapter 468: Prince Helai
"Princess Ann and Princess have arrived!"
Mama Zhang helped Mu Yunyi slowly walk down the chariot and stood on the white jade brick road in the middle of the Xuanhui Palace.
Although there were many people guiding and supporting Mu Yunyi along the way, and Bi Ying and Luoshuang were always standing behind her, this feeling of not being able to see her surroundings for a long time still made her very insecure, and she could only use her hearing to perceive as much as possible, and lowered her head to look at the only floor tiles at her feet that she could see.
On the stone steps, the prince's voice came: "I brought you the bride." ”
Then, a series of steady footsteps slowly walked down the steps, approaching her, and soon the pair of purple gold auspicious cloud pattern dragon boots stood in front of her, paused for a moment and then walked to her left-hand side, standing side by side with her.
Mu Yunyi lowered her eyes and looked at the boots on the left and the crimson robe corner of the slightly exposed robe, and suddenly felt a little guilty, everything about this big wedding, from her phoenix crown to the decoration of the two mansions and the list of guests, everything was prepared by Su Yan, she seemed to pay attention, to put it mildly, Mu Yunyi followed the local customs, and the Su family was in charge, but in fact, she was unwilling to care, so that Su Yan's wedding dress and accessories, she saw it for the first time.
"The newcomer enters the temple!"
After the two ministers sang in harmony, Mama Zhang on the side stepped forward, and then before Mama Zhang supported Mu Yunyi, Mu Yunyi's left hand was held by a cold and wide palm.
Mama Zhang had her own eyes, seeing this situation, she hurriedly withdrew her hand and took a step back, widening the distance between the two of them, although Mu Yunyi was stunned for a moment, she did not refuse, and walked towards the palace gate with his steps.
Walking to the bottom of the stairs, the hand holding Mu Yunyi suddenly increased some strength, and helped her to step up the first stone step steadily.
The wedding ceremony in the palace is not as many tricks and folk customs as the folk marriage, the newlyweds do not need to cross the saddle or brazier, the stone steps in front of the Xuanhui Hall in front of the Xuanhui Palace, the middle and the upper are nine and a total of 27 steps, each step is five inches high, and the long stone steps that go together represent the husband and wife with one heart and one mind, hand in hand.
Mu Yunyi's wedding dress has no luxurious pendants, only uses effort in materials and dark embroidery, but the wedding dress made entirely in accordance with the princess dress in the palace is heavily worked, and the cuff skirt is even more dragged to show solemnity. To maintain a dignified face with a hippa cover, it really takes a lot of effort to walk up layer by layer.
However, it is this not easy sense of reality that makes Mu Yunyi's memory of entering the hall with Su Yan, crossing the saddle, and crossing the brazier more and more blurred.
"It's okay, it's just a dream."
After "ascending", Mu Yunyi subconsciously let go of his hand, but fortunately, the other party did not hesitate to entangle, and naturally took his hand back. The two stood in the middle of the front of the Xuanhui Palace, the two maids stood on the left and right, the male maid held the festival, the female maid held the book, and at this time the hall came loudly: "The auspicious time has come!" ”
After the words, the ceremony and music started, the performance of the wedding ceremony in the palace is not like the joy of folk wedding customs, and it is mostly played by bells, drums, sheng chimes, noisy but not noisy, and extremely majestic and solemn.
Accompanied by the music, Mu Yunyi followed the footsteps of her to step into the Xuanhui Palace, although the sound of sonature was endless, but Mu Yunyi's sensitivity to space made her immediately perceive that the left and right rows of the hall were full of people, when they were the nobles and princes of the imperial court, it seemed that they also got the news and entered the palace directly, and the royal family attached great importance to this marriage, which was even more extraordinary.
Walking to the jade steps at the front of the main hall, the prime minister stopped and stepped back, while the salute officer and the general praise officer stepped forward.
"Stand!" The celebrant was the first to sing.
After the two stopped, the music was also tentative, and the praise official opened his mouth and sang: "Kneel! Worship the Holy One! ”
"Prostrate! Knock again! Three prostrations! Litre! ”
In front of him, the jade steps came from the joy of Tanglin Xun instead of the majestic voice: "A match made in heaven, very good, very good!" ”
The salute officer sang again: "Worship heaven and earth!"
The maid behind her took the hem of her robe, led her to turn around, and bowed to the heavens and the earth beyond the temple gate.
"Prostrate! Knock again! Three prostrations! Litre! ”
After turning back, the hands of the bride and groom were respectively lit with incense and then chanted, "Bow down to the ancestors!" ”
Mu Yunyi knelt down steadily with three incense sticks in his hands, and secretly thought to himself: The so-called two worship halls of the people, but here they have changed the rules, although Mu Yunyi's high hall is not there, and Su Yan's father has already died of martyrdom, but his mother Jiang is still there, and she must be in the palace at this time, why not worship her but directly bow down to the ancestors?
However, Mu Yunyi didn't have much time to think deeply, and the voice of the Tongzan official had already sounded: "Kowtow!" Knock again! Three prostrations! ”
After getting up, the salute took the incense from the hands of the two of them, inserted it into the previous plan, and continued to sing: "Husband and wife bow to each other! ”
After the two stood opposite each other, the Tongzan official sang: "Kowtow!" Knock again! Three prostrations! ”
"Drink together!"
At this time, the salute officer brought a cut gourd, and the two scoops were connected with the handles by threads, and the praise officer stepped forward to divide the two scoops into the hands of the two.
Mu Yunyi slightly lifted Xipa to his nose with his left hand, raised the gourd to his mouth with his right hand, and drank the wine in the scoop.
Then the scoops in the hands of the two of them merged again and wrapped them in red thread.
"Licheng! Read the decree! ”
Then the prince's voice came: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said: Xiqiong'an and the eldest princess Mu Shi Yunyi, with a noble identity, natural appearance, pure temperament, perseverance and prudence, the beauty of peace and integrity, the virtue of courtesy, and the festival of respecting the sky, are really a model of the royal family and a good choice for Zi's wife......"
Mu Yunyi didn't have the heart to listen carefully to what the content of this marriage decree was, it was just some words of praise, not to mention that he had already heard these in the canonization decree when he married the prince a year ago, even if the content was different, it was a change of soup and not a change of medicine.
At the beginning, Mu Yunyi's heart was unwavering, just because the person he married was the prince Dongling Yi, and the two of them were just for interests and commitments, but now that they are married to Su Yan, they are still so calm in their hearts, as if their souls have left their bodies and are watching other people's weddings.
The prince's reading continued: "Today, Prince Shu attaches equal importance to civil and military affairs, is honest and dignified, respectful, diligent, meticulous and calm, and philosophical." The two of them have a good relationship made in heaven, it is really the great luck of Dongzhao and Xiqiong, I bow and hear it very happily, it is good luck today, the two of them are married, I hope to be of one heart and one mind, do not live up to my hope! Chin this ......"
Mu Yunyi didn't listen to the words next to him, only the words "Prince Shu" suddenly slashed into the top of his skull like thunder.
Prince! Where did the prince come from?
The highest honor of the courtiers is only a national prince, even if the Su family has always enjoyed the encounter of the prince and the respect of the relatives, it is just a tacit favor between the monarch and the ministers, and there is absolutely no reason to make a clear edict to crown the prince, and the title......
Prince Shu?
