Chapter 209: Two sedan chairs
No matter what, the wedding day of Xie Yuanyu and Princess Yilan, Cheng Hanbai and Lord Qingyao has finally arrived.
They didn't discuss it at the time, they chose the same date, and later because of the Northern Expedition, the two of them changed the date at the same time, and it was the same day. This can make Prince De and the princess busy in the dark.
Xie Yuanyu's two younger brothers also came to the capital from Chengdu Mansion to watch the ceremony, and the carriages they brought over had eight carriages, all of which were for the makeup of the sister-in-law and sister-in-law. For a while, Prince De's Mansion was about to burst.
Xie Yuanyu and Xie Qingyao are brothers and sisters, in the same lane, one marries and the other marries. This sedan chair is in and out, and it's not squeezed out? The key is that the dowry boxes produced in the capital are all the same vermilion lacquer camphor wood boxes, and it will be troublesome if you are not careful to carry the wrong one.
Qing Yao didn't want to change the marriage date anymore, she came up with an idea: "The people who carry the boxes wear different colors of clothes, and the people who pick up and send off relatives also wear different colors of clothes. ”
The prince and his wife thought about it, this is a good idea, it is better to make more clothes than to be ugly, so they hurriedly invited Sun Yanxi and the eleventh prince of Tatar, and the three mansions gave the color of the clothes. Sun Yanxi went to the prince's mansion, and the prince laughed: "How can they get married, how can it be the same as singing a big opera?" ”
Cheng was delayed because of the resignation and handover, and when he returned to the capital, it was not long before Cheng Hanbai was about to get married, and it was all up to Sun Yanxi and the prince to arrange the material banquet, and the father and son also sent a wedding post, happily waiting for the bride to enter the door.
This time, Cheng was transferred back to be the chief general of the rear army, and the original Jiumen Admiral Kang Jian was transferred to Xuanfu Town as the chief soldier. The crown prince also took advantage of the opportunity to seek a little personal gain when he was selling his official position, and at the same time made arrangements for Kang Jian, who was forced out by the king.
Is there anything Kang Jian doesn't understand in his heart? Although he went to the border of Beidi to be a town general, there is also an advantage, that is, the level of the town general in Beidi does not matter, there are four or five grades, and there are also those who are high to the first grade, and they are promoted according to military merit. This is more hopeful than the nine-door admiral of the third grade. He also received the prince's love.
At the wedding, as soon as the palace door opened, Haitang took the two girls out of the palace and returned to Cheng's mansion, helping to check the decorations in the house and the objects in the wedding room for the last time.
Shuang'er and Ji'er, who had been helping in the house for a long time, said with a smile: "Niangniang, we have checked it a hundred times, so you can rest assured." ”
Because the bride is the county lord, the prince also specially asked people to repair and decorate the Cheng Mansion and add a lot of furniture. The housekeeper carefully selected a few girls and mothers-in-law for the new master to call. Cheng Mansion has a new atmosphere, and even the old lady is in good spirits.
Several princes of Warat came to the capital to send their sister to marry, the ninth brother and the eleventh brother are the best with Yilan, seeing that the sister was in a good mood, pulling them to chatter, eyebrows flying and dancing, I guessed that my sister came to Beijing in advance, and she must have gotten along well with the prince, and she was also relieved a lot.
The East Palace added makeup to Princess Yilan and the county lord of Qingyao, and although the dowries of the two girls were not as good as the crown princess at that time, they were also very considerable.
After noon, Begonia went out with his brother.
Cheng Hanbai rode a red snow to chase the wind, took Cheng Dan, Cheng Shuang, Cheng Wen (Dark Seven), Cheng Wu (Dark Eight), Cheng Fei, Yu Lang and a gang, with a sedan chair, blowing and blowing, and walked towards Prince De's Mansion.
At the same time, Yu Shizi also rode his snow cone, dressed in a red wedding suit, followed by the first year of junior high school, ruthless, worry-free, dust-free, and windless, all handsome and chic, attracting the admiration of the onlookers.
Prince De's Mansion had the most people, and several princesses and princes came, so the prince took King Cheng and his wife to Cheng's Mansion together. Most of the military generals from Cheng's mansion came from the princelings. The commanders of the five armies were all present, and the Cheng Mansion was full of masculinity, as if it was a military meeting.
From Prince De's Mansion to Cheng's Mansion, you have to pass through a stone bridge, and it just so happens that from Wara Wang's Mansion to Prince De's Mansion, you also have to pass through this stone bridge. Coincidentally, there is no book, the auspicious time is the same, the distance is about the same, and the bride's two sedan chairs were picked up, and they were met on this stone bridge gorgeously. Pick up and send relatives, several colors of flowers and greens are squeezed together, which is really good-looking.
Shizi and Hanbai felt that it was a coincidence, and the two horses crossed their shoulders, and the two groom officials slapped their hands with a smile. But to carry the bride today, there are eight large sedan chairs, the sedan chairs are wide, and the two sedan chairs can't pass by. Squeezed around, simply stopped on the bridge and couldn't walk.
The bride on both sides is anxious, if you miss the time, your reputation will stink, who wants to invite her to pick up the bride in the future? Won't the job be smashed? Both of them waved red handkerchiefs and stepped forward to theorize:
"You let us pass first, the sedan chair can't land, it's the county lord on our sedan chair!"
"We're still princesses in the sedan chair! The sedan chair can't turn back, so you have to get out of the way quickly! ”
The two grooms were also dumbfounded, they were married for the first time, and they couldn't figure out the rules of carrying the sedan chair, and they couldn't turn back, they couldn't land, and they couldn't pass side by side, so what should I do?
The bride on the two sedan chairs was even more anxious. They got up early in the morning to dress up, and when they were hungry, they thought it would be over quickly, and they went into the cave room to find something to eat.
The emperors on both sides are happy to see the situation clearly, this is not a confrontation between the two armies, and those who are finished fighting are all friendly forces, and they must be protected. Yu Lang shouted loudly to the other side: "What's so difficult about this? On the first day of the new year, you find four people in the front, and we find four people in the back, and together we will lift the county lord's sedan chair with light skills, one high and one low, won't it pass? ”
That's right, these are not ordinary masters, all of them are martial arts masters. Can't get left and right, can't go up and down? Shizi smiled and said to General Cheng Shao: "I think it's okay, just do it." Yu Lang is really a clever ghost, brother-in-law, you have to remember to promote him. ”
The two groom officials agreed, and they did it. Yu Lang gave an order, and the eight handsome guys worked together to lift the county lord's palanquin to fly, just like that, one high and one low, and the princess's palanquin brushed over.
The sedan chair crossed the bridge handsomely, and the people around the melon seeds watched a good show, and they all clapped their hands and shouted loudly: good! One more! Can this come again? The two bridesmaids both sweated, but fortunately they didn't miss anything, and they both urged the sedan chair to their respective houses.
After worshipping the ground, it's troublesome again when drinking, both sides are brothers, and you have to drink wine! The crown prince, King Cheng, and Marquis Zhao were six or seven, and they drank Cheng Hanbai's wine first, and then rushed to Prince De's mansion to drink the second one.
When he returned to the East Palace, the prince felt more tired than his wedding.
"You count, how many people are not married? We must not let them do this again, and get married in the same place. Xie Ruijiao was lying on the bed on all fours, his eyes couldn't open: "You can't run at both ends, you have to drink double ...... wine."
Just then, Xie Ruizhu suddenly felt that his arm was sinking, and he quickly opened his eyes and turned his head to look, only to see Cheng Haitang, who was lying in the crook of his arm, already asleep.
