The auspicious clouds surround the city, the sky is full of red, the shade of the acacia is even branched, and the lotus is open and pedicle. Qi has not been so full of joy for a long time, as soon as the day dawns, the people of the capital have taken to the streets, guarding both sides of the road early, even if it is just a glance from a distance, it can be regarded as a few years of joy.

In the palace of King Ming, everyone stayed awake all night, still busy inside and out, for fear that something would go wrong.

"Your Highness, Your Highness." Han Tian shouted softly in front of King Ming's bedroom, "It's time to get up." ”

There was no movement in the house.

"Your Highness!" Hantian's voice was louder.

There was still no movement in the house, "Hey, it's unreliable." Hantian muttered quietly.

was about to push open the door with one palm, only to hear King Ming's voice coming from behind him, "Who is unreliable?" ”

Han Tian was stunned for a while, and then looked at King Ming who was in the corridor behind him in surprise, neatly dressed and refreshed, and it seemed that he had been up for a long time. The muttering just now seemed to have been heard by His Highness, so he had to reply: "I, I am the most unreliable." Why did Your Highness get up so early today? ”

"On this king's big day, I'm in a good mood and get up early." King Ming hasn't been so hearty for a long time, and he shook his arms as he spoke, like a child waiting for candy.

"Since His Highness has already gotten up, he will retire in the cold weather." Suddenly seeing such a Ming King, I was still a little uncomfortable in the cold weather.

"Well, that's right, this king is going to see how he's prepared."

...

[At this time, Princess Heqin's Mansion]

A mansion with a temporary plaque is now also lit up and filled with bright atmosphere.

Dongfang Mu's personal maid Qing'er was carefully painting thrushes for her, looking at the appearance of the princess in the bronze mirror, which made people incomprehensible expression, as if the fat powder covered the smile, and as if the eyes were hiding the rain, snow, wind and frost.

"Princess, this day has finally arrived." Qing'er and Dongfang Mu looked at each other in the bronze mirror.

"Yes, I finally lived up to my father's trust. I'm sorry for the east. Before the ceremony was completed, Dongfang Mu still didn't dare to relax and said, "I just hope that King Ming will not be in chaos today." ”

Qing'er knows that Dongfang Mu is not easy, and for this marriage, there are like tight strings in her mind, ready to deal with the uncertainty of King Ming at any time. The eyebrows have been drawn, and Qing'er said: "This Ming Wang, he doesn't look like a prince at all, his personality is uncertain, and the princess will have to be more careful in the future." ”

"As long as I can get through this day smoothly, even if he does something out of the ordinary in the future, I can ignore it." In Dongfang Mu's heart, as long as the gift is completed, she doesn't need to compromise anymore, after all, what she asks for is just a marriage.

"Even so, princess, be prepared. After today, King Ming is the person who accompanies you all your life, I haven't heard of marriage and separation, and the relationship is better not to be stiff. Qing'er said that she had already begun to comb Dongfang's hair.

"I understand this, I will do what a princess should do." Dongfang Mu silently added another sentence in his heart: he will also keep his promise and let him be with his sweetheart.

"If one day, you can treat each other with sincerity... Hey, it's Qing'er who is too talkative, presumably the princess has her own opinions. Qing'er wants to persuade Dongfang Mu to accept King Ming as a husband from the bottom of his heart, so that he can have happiness in the future.

Dongfang Mu doesn't want to be in harmony with the Ming King and his wife, although he has no love for each other, but this is a person who stays with him all his life, as a woman, Dongfang Mu is naturally willing to try to have a deep relationship with the Ming Wang.

However, this marriage was unfair from the beginning, King Ming already had a sweetheart, how could Dongfang Mu dare to entrust his heart to him? In her heart, since this is a marriage, let's solve it in the way of political affairs.

...

【Auspicious time, Ming Wangfu】

"Your Highness, this is a letter of greeting. Everything is ready to go. Han Tian said and handed the letter of welcome to King Ming.

"Okay, let's go." After King Ming got on the horse, he gave an order, and the royal honor guard of Qi was already in place.

The royal family of Qi welcomes relatives, there are no gongs, drums and firecrackers, no matchmaker to guide the way, and no sedan chair. Instead, there is the red tent, the four horses go hand in hand, and the red tent is like an embroidered curtain. The people who led the way were King Chen and General Wei Chi, followed by King Ming. And the dowry followed the red tent with the mighty army.

The group soon walked into the main road of the capital, and saw that the people on both sides of the road were excited.

Even though Feng Ling'er covered her face with a light veil, Han Tian still recognized her at a glance in the crowd, and she was immediately at a loss, only to see Feng Ling'er looking at Han Tian firmly, and quickly shook her head, for fear that Han Tian would inform King Ming about seeing him at this time. She just wanted to take a look at King Ming, that's all, the marriage was too important, how could she interfere.

Although Han Tian knew in his heart that this matter should be reported, for the sake of the overall situation, it was better to pretend not to see it at this time.

Feng Ling'er saw that King Ming was dressed in red satin, and the only phoenix-patterned jade pendant was tied around his waist, and he had heard King Ming mention it before, which was given by Emperor Qi when his mother was crowned, and nine jade craftsmen were used to make it with the cold jade of Kyaukhu Lake, but he had never seen it. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: 'In the past, you regarded this jade as a treasure, even when you were crowned king, you were reluctant to wear it, it seems that today is indeed your happy day.' While thinking about it but feeling a faint pain, Ling'er noticed that in a vague way, the affection for King Ming seemed to be more than just a confidant.

"Cold day" King Ming leaned slightly sideways and called softly.

Hantian drove his horse two steps faster, approached King Ming without a trace, and responded in a low voice: "Your Highness." ”

"Do you smell orchid?" King Ming asked while smiling at the people on both sides, moving his lips slightly.

Orchid? Isn't this exactly the fragrance that Feng Ling'er left everywhere she went, and she must not let His Highness find out at this time.

"Your Highness, it's early summer, where is there any Chunlan Molan in this season." Han Tian whispered, and his palms were really sweaty.

"You know what this king is asking!" King Ming's volume was slightly raised, and General Wei Chi immediately sensed it, and glanced back at King Ming, only to see King Ming continue to laugh on both sides instantly.

Han Tian originally planned to take the initiative to ask for guilt after the big gift, telling King Ming that he saw Ling'er and didn't want to deceive. But King Ming actually asked at this time, and the cold sky fell into a situation where he didn't know what to do.

After a moment, Han Tian pretended to be calm and replied loudly: "Your Highness, my subordinates have not been able to hear the order clearly, can you..."

This 'Your Highness', it attracted the dissatisfaction of General Wei Chi, the last time the princess was welcomed into the city, although the Emperor Qi knew the personality of the King of Ming, but he still punished him for three days and was not allowed to go to the court, and his reputation could no longer be disgraced by the King of Ming, this time he would never allow the King of Ming to make mistakes again.

General Wei Chi looked at Han Tian, his eyes were full of thunder, and Han Tian took advantage of the situation and retreated to the side, and King Ming naturally did not dare to ask any more questions.

In this way, the mighty welcoming team came to the door of Princess Heqin's mansion.

General Wei Chi took the lead in dismounting and preached: "The minister Wei Chi Zong, who was ordered to heaven and the Emperor of Qi, is willing to tie the good of the two countries of Qin and Jin, and specially enshrines the letter of alliance." Sure enough, this rich sound can set off the grandeur of the marriage.

Lin You immediately responded: "Minister Lin You, on the order of the Emperor of the East, I am willing to tie the friendship of the two countries of Qin and Jin, and I hereby present a letter of alliance, and I wish the two countries eternal prosperity." ”

The letters of alliance have been exchanged, and King Chen rode forward and preached: "This king, as the uncle of King Ming, has come to preside over this ceremony on behalf of His Majesty. ”

"I've seen King Chen." After Lin You saluted, he nodded to the relying officer, signaling that the ceremony could begin.

The honor guard immediately called out in a long voice: "Hand over the letter of greeting the princess ——, welcome the princess-"

As soon as the words fell, the door of the house was wide open, and the beauty was beautiful, dressed in brocade, with a neck like a grub, teeth like a gourd, and plump foreheads and slender eyebrows. King Ming saw the person in front of him walking towards him, and forgot to hand over the letter of greeting for a while, the original face of the unwavering Dongfang wood, seeing that the king of Ming did not hand over the letter of greeting, while smiling and stretching out his hand, King Ming then reacted, handed over the book of greeting, out of nervousness, he let go and turned to go, forgetting to hold the Dongfang wood.

"What? Your Highness still wants to ride a horse with me again? Dongfang Mu stopped him.

King Ming found that he didn't hold Dongfang Mu at this time, his heart was like numbness, and he couldn't hide his embarrassment, but he could only say without changing his face: "No need, this king will go to meet you." ”

For the rest of the way, King Ming just thought about not letting Dongfang misunderstand that he deliberately snubbed her.
