Chapter 639: Big Wedding Customs

Emperor Hong Zheng has already decreed that November 12 is the day of Princess Mingzhu's wedding.

Whether it is a prince or nobleman, a civil and military official, or an ordinary person in the capital, it is not allowed on this day, and there are any other red happy events colliding with each other.

This arrangement puts Gu Fanghua in the position of a real golden branch and jade leaf, giving her the greatest glory and highlighting her nobility.

Today's Tiangong is also beautiful, a rare sunny day.

There was a guard of honor to open the way, and the Imperial Forest Army guarded both sides, Feng Luan came out of the palace and carried it on the street, and everywhere was full of people who came to watch.

On the golden phoenix, the big red silk curtain hung around with a golden toad. Through the looming curtain, everyone looked at the princess Mingzhu sitting on the top of Fengluan.

That golden phoenix wedding dress, even if he is sitting on the phoenix, is still full of treasure. Let the people who come to watch look forward to what kind of style it will be when Princess Pearl comes down?

Coupled with the flying of happy money in the sky, as well as the joy candy that has been sprinkled, for the people of the capital, today's wedding is a rare grand occasion in a century.

Everyone wants to grab some happy money, and there is also happy candy to go back and be happy. Fortunately, all the Beijing Yamen were dispatched, and the Imperial Forest Army maintained order, so there was no looting or stampede.

The phoenix luan carried by sixteen people was steady, at least Gu Fanghua didn't feel the bumps.

She sat on Fengluan, imagining the excitement around her, listening to the various cheers in her ears, Gu Fanghua even remembered the scene of her marriage in her previous life.

At that time, the queen mother's grandmother was gone, she was just the county lord, and she was married to the prince, and the pomp was the same as today, not the same day.

She sat in a small sedan chair, which was thick and impermeable, and it was uncomfortable for people to be stuffy.

When I finally got out of the sedan chair, my legs were weak, and I almost vomited because I was supported by others. Dizzy turned to worship the church, until Yan Shaoxun lifted his hijab, his face was very ugly.

And now, this luxurious Fengluan and the grand pomp all show the seriousness of the Ministry of Rites, as well as Xiao Yao's proper arrangement.

It's a pity that I can't lift my hijab and take a look at Xiao Yao's appearance on a horse to welcome his relatives today.

However, after worshipping the hall and entering the cave room, when Xiao Yao took off his hijab, he could take a look at his demeanor in a red robe today.

How amazing it would be for a person who never usually wears red to wear a red coat!

Originally, Emperor Hong Zheng was going to build a princess mansion for Gu Fanghua, but Empress Dowager Zhong and Mingzhu both resigned. Anyway, in this Yingyi Marquis's mansion, there are no others, only Mingzhu and Xiao Yao.

Besides, Gu Fanghua's surname is Gu after all, and she is not the real princess of the royal family, so she doesn't want the princess's mansion, so as not to be impeached by the imperial history.

Originally, it was not far from the palace to the Yingyi Marquis's Mansion, but according to the rules, if you don't turn back and don't take the side streets, you have to bypass most of the capital.

There are special personnel of the Ministry of Rites, counting the time, or entering the door at an auspicious time sooner or later.

Gu Fanghua thought wildly, the hour passed quickly, and before he knew it, he arrived at the gate of the Yingyi Marquis's mansion. The door is draped in red and hung with colors, which is greatly opened, and the princess's phoenix can be carried directly to the main hall.

"Feng Luan stop!"

Sixteen Imperial Forest Soldiers who carried Fengluan knelt down on one knee in unison, Xiao Yao stepped forward and took out Gu Fanghua from Fengluan and put it on the ground, and Aunt Dongchun quickly tidied up her skirt.

The civil and military officials who had been waiting in the Hou Mansion saw the golden phoenix wedding dress on Gu Fanghua's body clearly.

As Gu Fanghua moved the lotus step lightly, the golden phoenix seemed to spread its wings and soar in the clouds. Such an elegant and luxurious wedding dress sparkled in the sun, making the ladies who came to watch the ceremony envious.

The two stepped on the red carpet and came to the heaven and earth table in the center of the main hall, with the voice of the person singing the salute in the rite department:

"Worship heaven and earth

Two worship high halls

Husbands and wives worship each other

Send it to the cave room! ”

Xiao Yaohong's silk led the pearl and was hugged into the new house.

Because Gu Fanghua is a princess, no one dares to come to the new house, and the new house is quiet. In addition to the green chrysanthemum and others who served, Mama Tongfang and Aunt Dongchun, there were only six bridesmaids.

Gu Fanghua sat upright on the edge of the bed, and the four brides were holding the wedding scales, the wine, the scissors and the dumplings.

The other two brides, one said the auspicious words "give birth to a noble son early", and the other gently sprinkled peanuts, red dates and longan around Gu Fanghua.

Xiao Yao, under the prompting of Xi Niang, held the wedding scale, and the hand that had always been able to hold a pen and a sword couldn't help but tremble. He felt that whether it was in the Jinluan Palace or on the battlefield, he was not as nervous as he was now.

Even he felt a trace of trance, did he really marry Mingzhu? How is it still a bit like in a dream?

"Master Hou, quickly pick up the hijab!"

Xiao Yao took a deep breath quickly, then stabilized his hand, and gently used the weighing rod in his hand to pick up the red hijab.

After the red head was lifted, the bright light stood out, making Gu Fanghua, who had been in the red light, unable to open his eyes for a while.

Gu Fanghua reflexively closed her eyes, and when she got used to the light, she slowly opened her eyes again. What caught his eye was Xiao Yao's red robe, the red belt around his waist was tightly bound, and his slender waist could be seen in his long posture.

When Gu Fanghua's gaze slowly went up, and when he raised his head, he saw Xiao Yao's smiling eyes.

The red wedding robe often looks very joyful, but when worn on Xiao Yao's body, it is very commensurate and beautiful. With a pair of bright eyes, he stared at Gu Fanghua tightly, and there was a fire burning under his eyes.

The hot eyes made Gu Fanghua's already red cheeks even more red.

Xi Niang said happily: "Hou Ye was stunned when he saw the princess, he was really satisfied!" ”

Subsequently, he reminded that according to the divination, today's god of happiness is located in the east window, and Xiao Yao picked the velvet flower from his head and inserted it on the east window.

The next step is to drink the wine, a gourd is divided into two scoops, filled with wine, and the middle is connected with a red thread. Xiao Yao and Mingzhu are half of them, the wine is sweet, and they are the best daughters.

The two drank the wine with affection, and the bride threw the two halves of the scoop on the bed, one scoop up and the other down.

Xi Niang said happily: "One up and one down, a match made in heaven!" ”

The bride with the dumplings knelt down and held the tray high. Gu Fanghua picked up the pastel bowl with flowers blooming and gently took a bite of the dumplings.

Xi Niang said loudly: "To be born or not to be born? ”

Gu Fanghua looked at Xiao Yao, who was smiling, shyly, and said softly: "Sheng!" ”

"Well, the princess said that she was born!"

The happy ladies cheered, and everyone else laughed kindly, and Mama Fang and Aunt Dongchun, who were watching the ceremony, were even more happy.

After eating happy dumplings, it is the last custom.

The bride used the wedding scissors to cut off a strand of Xiao Yao and Mingzhu's hair respectively, and then carefully knotted a concentric knot, put it in the Ruyi purse, and pressed it under the pillow.

"Marry husband and wife, and tie the knot forever!"
