Chapter 249: The Wedding Ceremony
The sun is shining all over the sky, the red makeup is paved on the floor, the fragrance is heavy, and the snow is fluttering.
Step by step, step by step, to the highest hall of red bricks and gold tiles, under the gaze of everyone, every gesture is beautiful and impeccable, this is a wonderful sacred and intoxicating wedding.
He took her hand, and for the first time felt that she was no longer ethereal and distant. There are bursts of emotion in my heart, and I am engraved with the happiness of every moment bit by bit, as if I want to remember this happy time deeply.
Once you have held it, it is hard to forget.
The clothes are fluttering, the skirt is clear, and the cold wind brings up several layers of light yarn, like the light mist on the riverside, like the changing clouds on the horizon, a unique and exquisite elegant warmth is swayed out, giving people a sense of falling English and haze.
Silk satin, silk snow hair, the purity of the material, the smoothness of the color, the gentleness of the appearance, the color of the rendering is red and gorgeous, and the color contains some deep meaning. A river is red, one day sunset, heaven, earth and man are one, the fragrance is far away, the music is endless, the people are anxious, and everything is blooming for the happy event on the day of heavy snow.
The first snow of the year came late, but it was also very ingenious, and it came with a strange fragrance.
Xue Ze smiled slightly, the tip of his heart seemed to have ice water melting, condensing in the heat, like a fluttering wind, the first fragrance of flowers, the lightness of catkins, and the whiteness of snow-capped mountains.
"How do I perceive the snowflakes?" Yukisawa was a little surprised, and before he could think about it, he felt a little colder.
As soon as the salute team arrived in Tangzhou, they were greeted by Gao Hai, which surprised everyone. Looking at the red colors paved all over the ground and the sail flags swaggering everywhere, Yu Qianye and Lianzi were very relieved and satisfied, and Yu Qixian also let down some guards.
Running all the way, suffering many shocks, and finally reaching Tangzhou. The gate of the imperial capital is even more solemn, changing the noise of the past, only waiting for the salute team to come, all the joyful voices continue to sound.
Liu Lihou was in the middle of the city gate, watching the salute team slowly approach with anticipation, everything became dreamy and beautiful, and only the moment he saw her did he settle down.
It's coming, it's near......
"You're finally here!" Liu Li smiled softly, stunned for a long time, and finally was pushed out, looking at the red salute team and suddenly panicking.
"The auspicious time has come, please the emperor kick the happy door and blow the red curtain!" said the father-in-law of the ceremony, and said the identity of the woman loudly to the onlookers, such as "the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenning".
Liu Li didn't listen too much, only vaguely remembered the rules that he had practiced many times, he kicked the door and whisked the curtain with an antique method, and then gently took Xue Ze out and stepped on the brazier.
"Yukizawa!"
"Huh?"
There was so much noise around that the voices of the two could only be heard from each other.
"Are you ready?"
"Hmm!"
Facing the onlookers and laughter of everyone, Liu Li took Xue Ze to the palace, and the laughter of the subjects proved that everyone supported the emperor's behavior, which made Xue Ze feel a lot more relieved.
The laughter and praise of everyone, the envy and sigh of others, and this fiery and gorgeous scene made Xue Ze nervous, and mixed emotions continued to emerge in his heart, as if he was happy, cold, moved, and afraid... of aggregates, they compete for the main position, divided into high and low order.
"I'm here!" he grabbed Yukizawa's hand and walked forward step by step.
Xue Ze's heart suddenly jumped with joy, and then he was pressed down by a cold air, and at this moment he suddenly saw the snow in his heart.
"Why do I have snowflakes in my heart?" Yukisawa touched his heart and asked secretly, "Are you looking forward to snow at this moment?"
Suddenly, snowflakes fell from the sky, and this was the first snow of the year.
Falling snow, clouds and clouds, all at this moment. People are around, holding hands and hearts.
"The Ice Heart Pill doesn't work!"
Liu Li squeezed her hand very tightly, and he whispered softly in her ear: "It's snowing, I'll accompany you to see the clouds in the snow later!"
"Clouds on a snowy day?"
"Well, the snowy day, the cloudy scenery, the beauty is beautiful, but it is far inferior to you!"
Yukisawa didn't have time to care about anything else, just followed him forward. The road could be vaguely seen under the red hijab, and Xue Ze's head was blank, and she would only take steps in a daze, and the scene at this moment made her lose her mind.
The sound of the phoenix crown, step shake, and pearl hairpin is crisp, with the tone of gold and silver, and the sense of jade, and the sound of collision is like a unique rhythm.
The snowflakes fell on her shoulders and skirts, staining her red clothes with some white tones, and the scene of the first snow outside was beautiful and beautiful, and the fluttering figure and the elegant fragrance of flowers calmed her heart.
Yukisawa looked left and right, and when he looked at him, he smiled at her. "Yunxia also came out, do you like it?"
The hand-holding of the first snow, the faint laughter, all this seems to have been encountered.
At the height of the steps, the frost and snow are shining, and the agarwood is bursting. Liu Li lifted Xue Ze's red hijab and said gently, "Okay, you can take a good look at the snow!"
Yukisawa lowered his head, a little embarrassed. "It's not etiquette, is it?!"
Liu Li smiled, grabbed Xue Ze's shoulder, and turned her aside. "The scenery here is very good, wouldn't it be a pity not to see it? You are my Ming Media is marrying, everyone in the world knows it, why do you need to care about any etiquette?"
Yukisawa looked up, the scenery was beautiful, and his heart was shaken. The clouds are dreamy like an illusory spell, and the fluttering snow reflects a little color, different snowfall, and different moods.
"Nice, beautiful!"
Liu Li smiled slightly and stared at Xue Ze dotingly. "It's not as beautiful as you!"
The glow of the sky had changed its color, and it seemed to be about to dissipate, leaving a faint reddish and orange color.
Reflecting the clouds, the figure of the snowflake is gentle and lovely, like the petals scattered by a fairy. If you look closely, this snowflake is really different, it does smell the fragrance when it falls on your hands, and the color is not the face of ordinary frost and snow.
"Your Majesty, let's go over first!" Xue Ze put his hand in his sleeve and looked at the dignitaries waiting in the hall.
"Okay!" Liu Li nodded and smiled, pulled Xue Ze to the hall, and led her to the center in front of everyone's eyes.
Everyone in the main hall stood up, and everyone looked at Yukizawa. Although in their eyes, Xue Ze is just the appearance of Qingling, but it is enough to be amazing and enviable.
"Miss Nangong is really stunning in the country and the city!"
Except for Liu Yi and Lianghua and other people who stood on Liu Li's side, everyone was reluctant and unhappy, especially the concubines, He Yu and Liu Zhong.
After saluting, giving words, and greeting you one by one, everything has settled.
"Miss Nangong is really stunning, elegant and polite in the world, and she is worthy of the emperor's talent, handsome and elegant. This auspicious day and the first snow, but also the flowers are blooming, it is really an auspicious sign, I hope that the two of you love and harmony, and give birth to a dragon son early. Everyone has given gifts, and the mourning family still has a jade ruyi to give to Qingling, your ice clean and elegant appearance is just right for it!"
Xue Ze saluted and thanked him, but was about to accept the gift box but was stopped by Liu Li. Liu Li took the box, looked at the jade Ruyi in the box, and immediately understood the queen mother's intentions.
"Queen Mother, if the sons are not mistaken, this jade Ruyi was originally a pair, divided into two large and small. The big one symbolizes the sky and the big one, and the small one symbolizes the earth and rivers, which is not distinguished from dignity or inferiority, but there is also a difference. As soon as Qingling came, the clouds shone colorfully, and the first snow finally fell.
The Queen Mother smiled softly and turned to Concubine Xian in the banquet. "It's a pity that the big jade Ruyi has been given away! Looking up to the heaven and the earth, wishful thinking, this big one is only given to the virtuous concubine. After all, Concubine Xian came first, and she was the lord of the high position in the harem, and everyone looked up to her, this-"
Liu Li turned his eyes, and immediately understood the deep meaning of the Queen Mother, and said unhappily: "In this case, the Queen Mother might as well take back this jade Ruyi, so as not to make Qingling and Concubine Xian suspicious." It was originally a good thing, but there were really gaps, if Concubine Xian thought that she was holding a big one and Qingling was storing a small one, wouldn't it be difficult to get along in the future?"
Xue Ze grabbed Liu Li's sleeve and whispered: "The concubine feels that the heavens, the earth and the rivers are as colorful, and it is already happiness to be able to stand on the earth and the rivers. Besides, the sister of the virtuous concubine should take the big one in her high position, and the concubine is lucky enough to get the other one, which is already a blessing, how can she be suspicious? This jade Ruyi Qingling has accepted it!"
The Queen Mother smiled proudly, "It is worthy of being the daughter trained by the Marquis of Zhenning, but she is much more obedient and polite than the son of the mourning family." This jade ruyi is just a kind intention of mourning the family, and has no other meaning, and I hope not to ruin the mood of the two of you! The emperor has been working day and night on the marriage recently, and he has been sleepless for you, but he has not even decided on a name. If the mourning family's gift is light, then give you a title, how about it?"
Liu Li held Xue Ze's hand and said gently: "I have already thought about the name, everything is just waiting for you to come over and make a decision." The names proposed by the Ministry of Rites are a little confusing, I personally selected a few, and you can see which one you like!"
Everyone was amazed, and Liu Yi and Lianghua also felt that Liu Li was a little too spoiled. The queen mother's dissatisfaction has long been irrepressible, remembering that she has repeatedly blocked and murdered unsuccessfully, her heart is full of anger, and she can't wait to scold the lance well.
"That's it!" Yukisawa quickly settled, knowing that the atmosphere here was not harmonious.
Liu Li nodded and said to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, Qingling is the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenning, and she has been kind to me many times, and the sons want to make her the Snow Concubine." What does the Queen Mother think?"
"The heavy snow welcomes the wedding day, the frost flower is the beginning, this snow word is good, it is not only the scene of today, but also the person who has to set off Qingling. The Queen Mother smiled deeply and said slowly: "However, I am afraid it is not appropriate to enter the concubine position as soon as I enter the palace!"
"Why is it not appropriate? We have already discussed this matter before!" Liu Li frowned, holding back his emotions and not being angry on a happy day, but he was very dissatisfied with the Queen Mother's reversal.
"Entering the position of concubine, this is already the greatest blessing, and the queen mother has tolerated your presumptuous many times. If the daughter of the prince becomes a concubine as soon as she comes, how will the people of the world view the royal family? How will the prince gain a foothold in the future? Not to mention you, I am afraid that Qingling will not be able to bear such honors in the future! The virtuous concubine is the daughter of a first-class official, and she is also a noble person when she first enters the palace, and she is promoted to the position of concubine after three years, has the emperor forgotten it?"
Liu Li didn't expect the Queen Mother to fight back in front of everyone, and the two people, who had always swallowed their anger and seemed to be harmonious, almost couldn't control themselves.
Xue Ze didn't wait for everyone's comfort, pretended to be panicked and cowardly, and knelt down directly.
Qingling knew that she had a lot of honors, and she didn't dare to try anything else, let alone hurt the mother and son of the emperor and the queen mother. Please let the queen mother and the emperor relax their minds on happy events, Qingling just wants to stay in the harem peacefully, and is not greedy for glory and wealth, it is not important to be titled, please make a decision for the queen mother and the emperor!"
The Queen Mother looked at Xue Ze and was very happy in her heart: It seems that this Qingling is just an empty skin, so don't you let me play with it in the future? Forget it, why care about the position, it can't threaten me anyway, it's better to sell personal favors! If I can control her, then wouldn't I have an extra little sheep?
"Qingling is very smart, no wonder the emperor likes it, then follow the emperor's wishes!"
The emperor helped Xue Ze up and held her hand distressedly. "In that case, then seal Qingling as a snow concubine!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, knelt down and bowed: "Congratulations to the Queen Mother and the Emperor for welcoming the Snow Concubine!"
