Chapter 308: The Gift of Peace
Time flies quickly, after the small year, the 29th day of the third month of the calendar lunar calendar is Yun Ruoyan's birthday, and it is also the day of Yun Ruoyan and Lu.
In leaving the country, it is very important for a girl, and it represents the girl's adulthood and can be married. In large families, women are valued as much as men are crowned.
Moreover, because of Yun Ruoyan's eldest lady of the Yun family, the student of the Void Academy and the fiancΓ©e of King Yu, Yun Ruoyan's ceremony was even more grand.
"Sister Ruoyan, this dress is so gorgeous!" Lin Qingxue's eyes widened, and she watched as Yun Ruoyan was wearing a set of flaming red dresses that tucked the ground. The skirt is embroidered with gold silk with phoenix flowers, which is gorgeous and a little dazzling.
The red shirt on the upper body has no stand-up collar, revealing Yun Ruoyan's slender neck. Because of the regular rest and good food during this time, Yun Ruoyan has grown a lot taller and her figure has plumped a lot. Although she was just fifteen years old, she looked like a woman of seventeen or eighteen.
Coupled with such a fiery red suit, the whole person is mature and bright that has never been seen before.
"Yes, Sister Ruoyan, wearing this set of clothes on you, I feel like you are a different person. Lin Qingchen also said.
In Tinglan Garden, Lin Qingchen and Lin Qingxue, two sisters, came early in the morning, and they wanted to be the girls who handed the flutes to Yun Ruoyan for a while, so the two of them, who don't often wear formal clothes, are also dressed quite dignified and solemn today.
"Isn't it pretty?" Yun Ruoyan stood up and turned around, the phoenix flower embroidered with gold silk flew in the air, shining brightly when it came into contact with the sunlight sprinkled outside the door.
"Of course it's pretty. Lin Qingchen and Lin Qingxue hurriedly said in unison: "It just feels different from before." β
"Why is it different?" Yun Ruoyan looked at herself in the mirror and frowned slightly.
In fact, she herself felt a little different from before, she used to wear such a fiery red skirt.
In her past and present lives, she has worn various styles of grand formal wear many times when attending some necessary occasions. But looking at herself in the mirror today, she also felt that the woman in the mirror was different from ever, but where the specific difference was, Yun Ruoyan couldn't tell herself.
"Our young lady has grown up. Peony said with a smile, with the pride of having a girl in my family in her eyes, and said slowly: "Our young lady is no longer a little girl and a girl, but a woman." β
Peony's words made everyone suddenly realize that Yun Ruoyan in front of her had unconsciously transformed from a girl to a woman.
......
Because Yun Ruoyan was born at noon, the auspicious time of the so-hu was also set at noon.
Just after about the time for breakfast, the road outside Yunfu was full of horse-drawn carriages on both sides, and guests from all walks of life were in an endless stream, and the liveliness was no less than that of Liu's birthday.
"I heard that the eldest lady of the Yun family will marry King Yu and become Princess Yu soon, is it true?"
"Yes, I also heard, it is said that the wedding date has been set, even three days later, why are you in such a hurry?"
Another guest in front heard the conversation behind him, and turned around and interjected: "You don't know this, what kind of training camp they are going to participate in the Void Underworld Academy soon, and after the training, they will go to a place where there is no danger to try, and I don't know when they will come back?"
"The training camp of the Void Academy?" The two people behind immediately became interested, stretched their necks and asked, "What training, what trial, where are you going to try, how do you know?"
"Shhhhh The young master of my family is now practicing harshly in the mansion every day, and the master is collecting treasures everywhere to prepare for the young master, and the two of them are not even free to come to Miss Yun's Ji Lu today, so I am asked to give gifts. β
"Oh, I recognize you. One of the two people who spoke first pointed to the person in front of him and said, "You are the second butler of Master Pei's family." β
It turned out that this person was the second housekeeper of Pei Yingxiong's family, and the young master in his mouth was none other than Pei Ziao.
"No wonder I know so much, it turned out to be the housekeeper of the Pei family. The two who spoke first suddenly realized.
"I'll tell you......" The second housekeeper of the Pei Mansion was even more interested when he saw that someone recognized him, and he leaned in front of the two of them and whispered: "You definitely don't know, this Prince Yu is a powerful instructor in the Void Underworld Academy, and this Miss Yun is the only official apprentice he has accepted." β
"What?" both of them widened their eyes and said in shock, "Then how can they still have a marriage contract, isn't that?"
"That is, the teacher is like the father, and this is * will be punished by heaven. β
The second housekeeper said with a smile: "My master also said so, so even if he is not busy and is not ready to come to the door, he will be punished by God!"
"Is what you said true? is it really a master and apprentice*?" Several people next to him heard the conversation between the three of them, and they also came over to ask.
"Oops, it's me, it's me. The second housekeeper didn't dare to make a big deal about it, so he quickly diverted the topic and hurriedly stepped forward to continue queuing.
But what he said quickly spread through the crowd.
This Miss Yun and King Yu are also about to get married, but the two have the status of master and apprentice. So soon, there will be a * wedding in the Imperial City, and so on......
Because there are many guests, the gate receives some less important guests, and some important guests naturally enter the house directly from the small door set up on the side.
For example, several ministers who Yun Lan made friends with in the court, as well as several princes, as well as the young ladies and sons in the big clan who came to join in the fun.
"Congratulations, congratulations, Master Yun, the Yun family has a female first-grown up!" An official of the same rank as Yun Lan stepped forward to congratulate Yun Lan.
"After that, you can get married. The official smiled at Yun Lan and said, "I don't know if Miss Yun is married, I want to ask for a dog!"
Yun Lan smiled quite embarrassedly: "Don't hide it from Lord Liu, the little girl is already married, and there will be a big wedding in the near future, and I hope that Lord Liu will come to enjoy the light and drink the wedding wine!"
"Ah!" Master Liu was obviously taken aback, and said, "Ling Ai is already married, such a big thing, I haven't heard such a rumor at all?
"Because the little girl has been in a hurry since she came back from the Void Academy, the time arrangement has been relatively urgent, so the engagement has not been done with much fanfare, and I will take this opportunity to inform everyone about the wedding today. Yun Lan said.
In fact, for the wedding, Limo was very concerned at first, and wanted to make a big deal, but Yun Ruoyan didn't like such fanfare, she felt that it was eye-catching enough. So just do it ordinarily, and Limo also depends on her.
Evian Ruoyan's idea didn't even have to be done in a big way, but this idea was immediately opposed by Yun Lan and Limo. The wedding can be small, because whether it is Yun Ruoyan or Limo, the reputation of the two is too loud in the imperial city, and it is better to be low-key. And it is a major event for a woman to become an adult, and it must be announced to the world.
The auspicious time is coming, and all the important guests have been arranged to sit in the Yunfu hall, and the rest of the people are also on the inner three floors, and the outer three floors are watching outside the hall.
On the main seat of the hall, the Liu family sat on the top in a dignified formal dress, she was the highest ranking and the most noble woman in the Yun family, so she gave Yun Ruoyan a haircut.
Yun Lan sat at the bottom of the Liu family, as Yun Ruoyan's father, he needed to accept Yun Ruoyan's bows.
Limo sat at the bottom of Yun Lan, he was the most honorable among the guests today, and Liqian Han sat next to Limo.
The crown prince is away from Qianxiao, and the second prince is away from Qianyuan, and he sits opposite.
"The auspicious time has come, and the ceremony of the Confession has begun. β
As soon as the chanter chanted, all the chatter in the hall disappeared.
Yun Ruoyan, with the support of the two sisters, Lin Qingchen and Lin Qingxue, walked into the hall from the back hall, and the dazzling fiery red shadow immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.
Limo's dark eyes were full of smiles, and he looked at Yun Ruoyan with a shallow but undisguised smile on the corner of his mouth. Yun Ruoyan received Limo's gaze, and mischievously raised her handsome chin slightly to face him, but her eyes were also full of laughter.
The crown prince Li Qianhan stretched his neck and stared at Yun Ruoyan without taking his eyes off it, and the second prince beside him stared at Yun Ruoyan's narrow eyes slightly narrowed.
This Yun Ruoyan, every time she appeared, seemed to be different from the last time, and every time she appeared, they were surprised by her changes. It's like a flower with magical powers, and every time it can bloom a different but dazzling flower.
"The one is in place, the salute is opened!" When Yun Ruoyan walked into the hall in the eyes of everyone, the chanter continued to chant: "The one who is on the flute bows, and the elder dips his hands." β
At this time, there were two dignifiedly dressed maids, one holding a futon in front of Yun Ruoyan, and the other walking in front of Liu with a golden basin in his hand, and Liu put his hand into the golden basin.
"Kneel down to heaven and earth, may the gods of heaven and earth bless you. The salute said.
The Lin sisters retreated to both sides, and Yun Ruoyan knelt down on the futon towards the outside of the hall and made three big salutes.
"Second kneeling guests, may relatives and friends take care of more. β
Yun Ruoyan gave three more big salutes to the surrounding guests. β
"Three kneels to parents and elders, may parents and elders be in good health. β
Yun Ruoyan finally bowed to Yun Lan and Liu.
"Kneel down, go up!"
Yun Ruoyan knelt up straight on the futon, and after Liu finished cleaning his hands, he stood up. The Lin sisters stepped forward to help the Liu family to Yun Ruoyan's side.
At this time, another maid stepped forward with a golden jade box in her hand. Lin Qingchen took the box and opened it and handed it to Liu, who reached out and took out a golden branch and a phoenix hairpin from the box, and slowly inserted it into Yun Ruoyan's black hair without a trace of accessories.
"The Rite of Grace, Dacheng!" the salute chanted at the end.
