In the sixteenth year of Yongping, on the ninth day of September, the Chongyang Festival of fruitful harvest, the autumn is high and refreshing, and the sun is shining.
The second son of the emperor, Xiao Mufeng, Prince Ning, married the daughter of Lin Chengde, the general of the protector of the country and the left minister of Zaifu, and the lord of Zhaoning, who was beautiful and unparalleled in beauty, became a sensation in Luoyang City.
The people all say that one is a handsome and chic prince, the other is a beautiful woman with the appearance of a fallen city, and a match made in heaven is a good match, and everyone praises and envies it.
The emperor's grace is vast, and the wedding is held according to the etiquette of the princess's marriage, and she gets up in the middle of the night to wash and dress up, and the people from the palace put on makeup and change clothes.
The red wedding dress, the phoenix crown and the jade cover, the aunt in the palace said that even the prince's wedding was not so gorgeous, which shows the emperor's love for the second prince and the county lord.
Looking at the phoenix crown in the mirror, Lin Qingzhi's eyes were as bright as stars, her smile bloomed, and with the makeup on her face, she was captivating, moving, and beautiful.
Xiao Mufeng rode a white horse and came to greet his relatives according to the auspicious time, and on his handsome face, which was usually as cold as ice, there was a rare warm smile in his eyes.
They had all been waiting for this moment for a long time.
When he saw the petite figure in front of him with a phoenix crown, a gentle smile bloomed on his cold and handsome face, and there was only the red shadow in front of him in those eyes, and nothing else.
Under the traction of the bride, Lin Qingzhi was wearing a bright red brocade with gold silk, a phoenix crown on her high bun, and under the light gauze translucent tassel hijab, her bright eyes looked at Xiao Mufeng, whom she had liked since childhood, and today he is even more handsome and graceful.
With the support of the bride, a couple said goodbye to their parents, and Lin Chengde sat on the mahogany chair in the hall with the rank of the eldest princess of Hechang, smiling and reluctant. Lin Qingji stood beside him in a brocade robe, and his eyes were full of hazy smiles.
Looking at her father, who had gray temples, Lin Qingzhi's heart churned, now that she was leaving the home where she had lived for seventeen years, how could she be willing to give up, she would have her own new home in the future, that was Ning Wangfu.
"Mother, you watched your daughter get married today in heaven, aren't you very happy for your daughter, your daughter is now grown up, and she will have her own home and children in the future, and she will finally live like you." Lin Qingzhi looked at the tablet in her father's arms and said silently in her heart.
On the sedan chair, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers sounded, and the people of Luoyang City were also full of curiosity, crowded on both sides of the road to see the excitement, and there were crowds of people everywhere.
The luxurious sixteen-person sedan chair sits today's protagonist, the red makeup stretches for ten miles, more than 20 cars, hundreds of escorts, the streets and alleys, all of them are staggering and envious, these royal gifts, golden and brilliant, I am afraid they will never have the fate to see in person.
In the deafening sound of firecrackers, the sedan chair and the procession to welcome relatives stopped in front of Prince Ning's mansion.
Under the traction of Xi Niang, Lin Qingzhi's hand was held by a cold and powerful hand, from now on, she is no longer the lord of Zhaoning, but the princess of Ning, and will be with the man beside her from now on, whether poor or rich.
Following the traction of those hands, step by step into Prince Ning's mansion, the red brocade carpet was spread to the main hall, and the petals of the big red moon season in the sky were sprinkled and fell, falling on the shoulders of the two people, and the fragrance of flowers filled the house.
As the bride shouted "Worship heaven and earth...... the two bowed down.
"Second worship high hall ......" Looking at the bright yellow smiling figure sitting in front of him, Xiao Mufeng's face flashed with joy, at this moment, even the old emperor who was good at calculations had a sincere smile in his eyes, which made Xiao Mufeng feel a strong sense of happiness, after all, he never wanted much, and his requirements were not high.
Looking at the newlywed beauties in front of him, the old emperor's eyes rarely showed a kind and soft look, and what he recalled in his mind was the beauty of the former queen more than 30 years ago.
"Husband and wife worship ......" turned around and bent over, looking at the pair of black boots in front of her, Lin Qingzhi finally felt a trace of reality, and now it is really a dream come true.
At this moment, outside the gate of King Ning's mansion, a ragged, tear-stained, haggard old woman cried and shouted to rush in, but how could she be able to defeat those powerful guards, and she couldn't enter the gate with all her strength.
was driven to the side of the road dozens of zhang away from King Ning's mansion, sitting on the side of the road and weeping, but the scene just now happened to be seen by Zhang Fu, who was going out.
After worshipping heaven and earth, surrounded by everyone, Lin Qingzhi was sent to the cave room.
Kira's red tent, red candles shining, tonight, she will be his wife.
Xiao Mufeng had to accompany the guests in the front hall to drink, and the wedding banquet was held for thirty seats, and now with the emperor's grace, plus the promotion to the prince's throne, and with the command of the military department and the camp outside the city, Xiao Mufeng is incomparable with the past, and some officials in the court can take this opportunity to climb. Even Xiao Mufeng, who is no longer good at dealing with things and doesn't want to deal with them, has to hold on to the energy to deal with it on the occasion of the wedding.
After experiencing so much to be able to marry his beloved, Xiao Mufeng was naturally extremely happy in his heart, and the guests who came were also surprised that the second prince, who was usually silent and had a face as pale as ice, smiled so good-looking.
When the guests dispersed, Xiao Mufeng had already been a little drunk, walked to the room with a red face, lifted his hijab, and the moment he saw Lin Qingzhi, he hugged Lin Qingzhi into his arms like a treasure, and murmured: "Ah Zhi, I finally waited for this day, I have been waiting for a long, long time......"
"Tell me, this is not a dream, are you really ......" Xiao Mufeng's misty eyes were full of joy, and there was deep uneasiness in joy.
"Brother Mu, it's true, at this moment, Ah Zhi has also waited for a long time, we can be together forever in the future, and there will never be anyone or anything to separate us." Lin Qingzhi looked at Xiao Mufeng's gains and losses like a child, buried her face in Xiao Mufeng's neck and said softly, feeling the heat in the other party's neck, Lin Qingzhi had a kind of happiness that she had never had.
"Really, I finally married you, Ah Zhi......" Lin Qingzhi only felt a tightness around her waist, and a soft lip covered her delicate lips, only to feel her heart fluttering as if she was about to break through her chest and jump out, she had never felt this way Lin Qingzhi subconsciously wanted to escape, but was hugged tighter by Xiao Mufeng, the wide and complicated red dress was pressed under Xiao Mufeng, and she struggled for a long time and failed to push him away.
Xi Niang and Rong Yue both covered their mouths and snickered and exited the house, leaving only the two of them.
Since he couldn't push it away, he didn't dodge anymore, the handsome face was just a stone's throw away, looking at the affection in his eyes, Lin Qingzhi closed his eyes and greeted him, her lips and teeth were intertwined, and a thick sweetness made the two of them intoxicated, and they didn't want to let go anymore.
She has never been through the affairs of men and women, her face is red, she strokes the sideburns, eyebrows, eyes, bridge of nose, lips of the person in front of her, and her heart is stable like a floating boat that has finally found a warm harbor where it can anchor.
The clothes are all gone, the ties are lingering, and the hands are clasped.
Lin Qingzhi looked at the handsome face in front of her, her eyes lingered, and her whole body was numb, but she didn't have any strength at all, only the tearing pain in her mind, and there was a murmur in her ears, "Ah Zhi...... Ah Zhi ......"
Long hair covered Xiao Mufeng's arms like silk satin, Lin Qingzhi only remembered the lingering several times that night, and remembered the deep affection and affection.
This is the flower candle in the cave room, this charming cloud and rain, remember the hearts of the two, the sound of the hanging red candle "fluttering" broke the quiet night, the two embraced each other, and since then they have shared the bed and pillow, cut the window candles together, and have helped each other through a lifetime.
