Chapter 181: She's going to get married, aren't you awake yet? (18th Update)
If it weren't for the ubiquity of the festive red, she would have almost thought she had been escorted into Yaocheng.
Is this Yi Ming discovering that she is wrong, or is there a variable in this marriage? Or did Yi Ming have other plans?
The imperial court has experienced several major families, and in addition to the official contacts on the surface, various actions are naturally inevitable in private. Just as the crown prince and even the emperor were frequently assassinated, and the prince rebelled and there were also family troublemakers, the imperial court also carried out some things such as assassination and lurking, and the affairs of this place, according to her observation, were handed over to Yan Sui.
Yan Sui is not only a knife to the family, but also the operator of the family behind the scenes, he doesn't say this, but Wen Zhen heard a single order say that if it weren't for Yan Sui having been using various internal and external problems of the three major families to contain them, Dongtang might have started civil strife a few years earlier.
Wen Zhen only heard Shan Ling say one thing, saying that Tang Xianzhi actually has a brother, who is very amazing and brilliant, and he is the heir who was once determined. When he was a teenager, he had a close relationship with a young lady of the Changchuan Yi family, and the Tang family and the Yi family were also considered to be a good match, and the Tang family originally didn't like the Changchuan Yi family very much, and felt that the family was too crazy, but Tang Xiaocheng insisted, so he talked about marriage, but in the end he found out that the young lady used Tang Gongzi as a springboard to gain benefits for herself and the Yi family, which angered the elders of the Tang family, and asked the impromptu teacher to ask for the guilt. Who knew that on the Yi family's side, what he got from the Tang family was a harmful thing and suffered heavy losses, so the Yi family thought that Tang Gongzi had long known the inside story and deceived Miss Yi with a knife and killed people with a knife; The Tang family thought that the Yi family wanted to seize the benefits of the Tang family through marriage, and the matter collapsed here, Tang Gongzi and the Yi family lady were separated, and the Tang Yi family was also completely evil, and the Tang family was therefore quite questioned by the Elders, thinking that he was too lazy to fall in love and difficult to become a big deal.
For this reason, the Tang Gongzi was disappointed in his love career, psychologically unbalanced, and made some trouble, Tang Xiaocheng took over the family not long ago, and his strength was not enough, and the elders who enjoyed great power within the Tang family were quite restrained, and for this son, it was very troublesome for a while, which indirectly led to him being trapped in these affairs for a long time, and he had no time to think about the hegemony.
When Shan Ling said it at the time, he kept shaking his head. Dao's strategy is really vicious, separating the family, the family, the father and son, the husband and wife, making Tang Xiaocheng tired of coping, distracted, and has no time to look east, it is easy to say, but after counting everyone's reactions, it is a big game of chess.
He asked Wen Zhen, "Guess who did it?" ”
Wen Zhen guessed a large number of courtiers who were famous for their treacherous and cunning in the court, and even the emperor himself had guessed it, and Shan Ling shook his head, and finally said: "Don't you guess the person in front of you?" ”
Wen Zhen: "How old was Yan Sui then?!" ”
"Thirteen or fourteen, just returned from the island."
At that time, Wen Zhen was silent for a long time, and intuitively felt that he was lucky, and all he saw was someone's harmless and greedy side.
At this moment, she suddenly remembered this matter, and then thought of the previous debate with Yan Sui about undercover Zeng Huai, and Yi Yanran's sudden serious illness at this moment, behind this, there is Yan Sui's handwriting, right?
It turns out that the war has already begun, on the territory without gunpowder.
She was suddenly very curious, did Yan Sui know that Yi Ming was a woman? What would he do if he knew?
The sedan chair was upside down, crossing the high threshold, there is no procedure for this happy event to receive relatives from her mother's house, the bride is directly invited into the mansion, and then Yi Yanran will attend the ceremony and accept the newlyweds.
Yi Ming smiled sharply that he was already engaged, and all the three media and six dowry ceremonies for marriage have been completed, and at this moment, the huge courtyard open-air banquet is out of sight, the guests are like clouds, and the long red carpet extends to the happy hall, the red candle on the happy hall is hot, and the golden light can be seen from afar in the dragon and phoenix.
Wen Zhen parked the sedan chair in front of the gate of the Sanjin courtyard, an old woman covered in red came over, and used a bright bronze mirror to shine back and forth on the sedan chair, Wen Zhen had heard the process of the wedding in advance, and knew that this was the wedding custom of Xichuan. But just look at the strength of the woman looking up and down in the mirror, and the lightness of the family between actions, I don't know if it is really auspicious, or check whether there is a problem with the sedan chair along the way.
When Wen Zhen got off the sedan chair, another mother-in-law came over, grabbing a dustpan, which contained some beans and wheat and other things, which is also one of the customs, sprinkling beans and raising wheat, praying for a bumper harvest of grains, food and clothing. But look at the woman's hands when she sprinkled beans into eagle claws, and the strong wind and tiger when she was in Yanggu, if there was someone hidden in the sedan chair, this beans and grains were sprinkled, and what killer became a sieve.
After these two levels, Wen Zhen got off the sedan chair. On a brazier in front of him, Wen Zhen stepped over with her skirt, feeling that the smoke of the fire seemed to be a little strange, and she didn't know what tricks were hidden.
walked along the red carpet, before the wedding hall, at the end of the red carpet, Yi Ming red brocade and gold crown, smiling.
Through the red hijab of the shadow veil, she saw Yi Ming standing beside her, Fang Sleeve Ke is a very magical person, when she is a girl, her appearance will never make you think that she is masculine, and when she is a man, she will not make you feel a little feminine, and she really switches perfectly between the two genders.
At this moment, her outstretched hand was slender and lush, and it was larger than the palm of an ordinary woman's hand.
Wen Zhen affectionately put his hand in her palm, while thinking that fortunately she had changed someone, if Li Xiao really came to be this bride, with her current mentality, it is estimated that she will have to poke out a knife now.
Li Xiao should hide in the dowry room at this moment to give Yan Sui an injection, it is the time for treatment.
After entering Yaocheng, it was no better than on the road, and the whole was shrouded in the power of the Yi family, so Wen Zhen and Li Xiao vacated the two largest boxes on the road for hiding. When the bride arrives, she must move the dowry into a fixed room and lock it for temporary storage, so that it is safe for a while.
After entering the house, Wen Zhen felt that the atmosphere was depressing, because there were too many people in this small wedding hall.
But it's not a guest, but the whole happy hall, there is a circle of people standing against the wall, all of them are full of energy, and their expressions are fierce, although they are dressed like a greeting guest, but they are masters at a glance.
The atmosphere in the room was also very tense, there was a row of old people sitting on a row of Taishi chairs, and the people on the other side were a little younger, but they all looked dignified, obviously their status was not low, Yi Ming took Wen Zhen all the way over, and also nodded to these people along the way, it can be seen that the people who came are all high-level figures of the Xichuan Yi family.
Wen Zhen's gaze fell on the old man sitting in the main hall.
That is one of the thorn histories of the four major feudal divisions of Dongtang, Yi Yanran, the uncrowned king of Xichuan.
Unlike what he imagined, Yi Yanran was thin and small, wearing a brocade robe wrapped around him empty, and his face was also very delicate, looking like an old scholar from the three villages who had read poetry and books. At this moment, he was leaning on the Taishi chair, not pretending to be a posture, obviously because of his physical exhaustion, Wen Zhen saw that his eyes were dark under his eyes, and the eyebrows on his forehead were blue, and his heart couldn't help jumping.
Sure enough, it was poisoning!
Looking at the withered appearance, it should have been poisoned for a long time, and it must have taken a lot of thought, after all, the medicine stone was ineffective.
At this moment, he looked ahead with a vague gaze, his chest rose and fell weakly and quickly, all the guests were anxious, and when someone coughed, the master of ceremonies hurriedly said: "Worship heaven and earth......"
Wen Zhen and Yi Ming bowed.
When she worshipped, she was thinking, the last time she worshipped heaven and earth, Yan Sui crashed into Tang Xianzhi's boat and interrupted the chapel, what about this time?
You're thousands, thousands, so angry that you can interrupt!
……
Li Xiao listened to the sound of suona drums outside, climbed out of the box, opened another box, and Yan Sui lay down peacefully inside.
The futon was placed in the box in advance, and he grunted jealously with a sharp smile and took a needle to treat him.
It was festive and lively outside, but the room where the dowry was placed was deserted, and she didn't know if the contrast between the lively and lonely was unsettling, she was a little flustered, so she chattered and talked to Yan Sui.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, you have slept so well these days, I see, you are still sleeping fat."
"People are also clean, Miss Wen is not afraid of trouble, in this situation, she has to scrub you every day, saying that if you don't clean it, you will be uncomfortable. What a joke, I don't know anything when I'm unconscious, what's comfortable or uncomfortable? She's just used to you! This man, where can he get used to it? spoils you so much, how will she live in the future? ”
"Hey, I'm really salty and don't worry about eating turnips, how she lives is better than me, I have made my life a joke. Your Highness, don't be like Yi Ming, who is full of flowers, and can't tell the truth with three sticks. A woman, who uses my youth as a fight, wants the soldiers of the Li family, and wants the power of the Yi family, why, God is also blind, why don't you come down and kill her! ”
"But you men, especially you, you are higher than Yi Ming, and your situation is still complicated, if Lord Wen marries you, I'm afraid that life will not be easy. I heard that she has always been reluctant to marry you, and my father and uncle all said that she was a smart person. But I look at it this time, smart people are very stupid, how much suffering you have suffered along the way. A woman can't be careful, she is the one who really puts you on the tip of her heart, she is almost exhausted, and she is very worthy of working with enemies from all sides to protect you and keep you safe until now, and she has to care if you are comfortable or not. What a stupidity! ”
"Your Highness, we women are stupid, it's really dead. Your stupid girl went to the tiger's den in Longtan again for you, are you really not going to wake up? ”
……
Yan Sui felt that he was walking in a dark tunnel, with sticky blood mud under his feet, scorching flames above his head, and in the wall made of white bones around him, he stretched out his bloody hands from time to time, trying to pull him, behind these arms were a puffy face, some people looked kind, and suddenly tore off their masks but their faces were empty and had no facial features; Some people looked cold, but after the mask fell off it was a face with blood and tears, some wept in his ear, telling of the ruthlessness of the battle and the pain of death, some knelt at his feet, begging him to help free him from the daily treacherous panic, his ears buzzed, countless voices drifted near and far, in this humming like a magic sound, some things were fading, some things were distinct, he vaguely felt that he had something very important, but his memory was vague and confused, he easily trudged out of the hellish tunnel, The white clouds under his feet in front of him were soft, coming and going, he was very tired, and he wanted to lie down in the white clouds and sleep for a long time, but he was pulled forward by a force, and at the same time he heard people babbling: "...... That stupid girl is going to get married, she's going to get married, you won't be able to cook raw rice and cook rice, aren't you awake yet......"
Silly girl? Who?
He opened his eyes.
Li Xiao was chattering at this time, turned to look at the fireworks that suddenly jumped outside, and turned back while watching the fireworks and said: "The fireworks have been released, maybe you have already started to worship, I said you ......"
Her voice stopped suddenly.
His gaze met a pair of dark eyes.
These eyes closed the world and quietly, and the chickens and dogs jumped when they opened their eyes.
Li Xiao was seriously frightened, a fierce man jumped up, slammed into the box on the top pile, covered his forehead and tears fell from his eyes, and couldn't help but sob: "Your Highness, you ......"
Yan Sui suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand.
Li Xiao was stunned, feeling like a second thunderbolt today.
Then she heard Yan Sui say happily: "Cake, have you been guarding me?" Thank you so hard! ”
Laughing: "......!! ”
------Off topic------
The eighteenth watch, more than 50,000 words, is a New Year's greeting to everyone in advance.
Tsk, it almost killed me.
Originally, I didn't want to participate in this kind of explosion, because I didn't think it was very suitable for me, and it might not be useful, and it also consumed my precious manuscripts.
What is a deposit? It takes months to boil out word by word, and it is the ultimate weapon to ensure continuous improvement, and it is my electricity, my light, and my only one.
Later, I thought about it, forget it, just take it as a benefit for everyone, this book can't be changed, and it's rare to be happy.
If none of this is a monthly pass...... Well, I can't bite you either, at most you'll lose my baby's enthusiasm......
