On the seventh day of the tenth lunar month, there are no clouds and autumn is crisp. The scorching sun of noon, like a mischievous child. Keep winking at pedestrians!

On the wall of the imperial capital, there is a big red gilded gilded word "Xi" on the wall of the imperial capital; There is also the "good news" emperor list of big red bronzing and gold rim. Under the scorching sun, it looks even more dazzling. It attracts pedestrians to come and see the surprise!

Some literate masters couldn't help but clear their throats and read: Fengtian carrier, the emperor said. On the eighth day of the first month of this month, it is the big day of Li Yunlong, a jinshi of the Hanlin Academy, Wang Jinhua, the princess of Zhongyi, and Leping, the eldest princess of the East Palace. At that time, miscellaneous taxes, hard labor, and capital crimes will be exempted. ——Yongxi Yu gave the people of the whole world to celebrate eight days together!

Hearing this, the illiterate old people and children shouted with joy: Haha, this is a good thing. That's great!

Immediately, there was a cheer by the wall of the imperial capital.

In those days, after all, there was a lot of war. The imperial court has not requisitioned middle-aged men to fill the front line for several years, and now it is a festive day for the master and the two princesses. The emperor lavishly rewarded the world as his people. Of course, it's worth rejoicing!

Of course, some people said sourly: This little plum was taken by the eldest princess, queen, and emperor of the East Palace. It is equivalent to prosperous official luck and rolling financial resources! I don't know what kind of life this kid has done good deeds and accumulated virtues. In exchange for such a wonderful "rich life" in this life?

In the courtyards of the palace, in the trees, in the flower beds, and on the corridors and fences, under the eaves, on the window edges, on the walls----。 All conspicuous places have been pasted with the word "Xi" with a bright red gilt edge. Colorful flags flutter everywhere, streamers fly, and red lanterns hang high. It has cast a wedding atmosphere on the deep courtyard of the palace!

In the quiet and solemn palace of Qinzheng in the past, at this moment, there are lights everywhere and flowers are full of brocades. On the glass windows of the north and south walls, there are red paper-cut paintings: there are "Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang", "Mandarin Ducks Playing in the Water", "Happy Door", "White-headed Old Age", as well as "Qilin Sending Children", "More Than Every Year", "Early Birth of a Precious Son", "Five Blessings".

On the top of the splendid Jinluan Palace, Emperor Yongxi and Empress Hua Yuling are sitting in danger. The Jinluan Palace was full, and the eyes of the civil and military ministers seemed to glance at them all without hesitation: Li Yunlong, the master of the horse, who was standing in front, and Wang Jinhua, the princess of Zhongyi, and Yong Leping, the eldest princess of the East Palace.

Prime Minister Yu and Liang Shangshu stood on both sides, acting as the duties of "attracting praise" and "praise": the groom and the bride worship heaven and earth.

Hearing this, Li Yunlong and the two princesses turned around and knelt down three times facing the outside.

Seeing them supporting each other and standing up, Prime Minister Yu and Liang Shangshu shouted in unison: The groom, the bride, the second worship the high hall.

Hearing this, Li Yunlong hurriedly pulled the two princesses to turn around, and knelt down three times in the face of the two old men in the Jinluan Palace. Then he raised his head and shouted: Father, Emperor, Mother, and Son. I wish you all a long life!

When Emperor Yongxi and Empress Hua Yuling heard this, they walked to the Jinluan Hall and came to them and pulled up the three of them. Folded the three hands together and happily said, "Children, tomorrow you will be husband and wife." Since you are husband and wife, you are a bird of the same fate under the eaves. We also hope that you will always know how to cherish each other's hearts and always care for your happiness!

Hearing this, Li Yunlong, Wang Jinhua, and Yong Leping nodded their heads like "chickens pecking rice". shouted at the two old men in front of them with their hands clasped into fists: Father, mother, and sons will follow the teachings!

At this time, Prime Minister Yu and Liang Shangshu shouted. And it drifted into the ears of the three people: the bridegroom, the bride, and the husband and wife worshipped each other.

As soon as their words landed, Li Yunlong and the two princesses turned to each other and bowed down three times.

Then, Prime Minister Yu and Liang Shangshu came over and helped the three of them. Then, in unison, they chanted: "Groom, bride, rite completed."

Emperor Yongxi, the day when he turned to the ministers of civil and military affairs. Today, I have organized this simple wedding for the children in advance. I will set up a banquet in the imperial dining room to entertain the horses, and you can bring your family to the banquet when you go home!

Immediately, the civil and military ministers in the Qinzheng Hall left their seats as if they had made an appointment. They all turned to Emperor Yongxi and Empress Hua Yuling and bowed down three times, and then there was a cheer: The emperor is long, and the ministers obey the order. Long live the Emperor and the Queen!

Emperor Yongxi turned to the ministers of civil and military affairs, and said with a pleasant face: Everyone, please be even!

Then he turned to the woman beside him and said, "Queen, I will take the horse to see the things that have been given to him." You can take all the emperors to the imperial dining room!

As he spoke, Emperor Yongxi pulled Li Yunlong out of the Qinzheng Palace. Quickly came to the side hall of Donghua Gate, pointed to the golden boxes and turned to Li Yunlong and said in a solemn tone: Virtuous son-in-law, the items in these boxes. It is what I have rewarded you, and I hope that you will be more faithful to our court from now on. Not provoked by foreigners and gangsters, I will concentrate on consolidating my Chaoshan society and offer advice!

Hearing this, Li Yunlong blurted out: Father, the son is your people, and the death is your ghost. Even if you don't reward me with these items, your sons will never "fornicate with foreigners and gangsters" to ruin my dynasty. Do something that is not good for you and my people! On the contrary, the sons and daughters must be "conscientious" to assist the court. Bow down and die!

When Emperor Yongxi heard this, he smiled with satisfaction. Next, he pulled Li Yunlong to the golden boxes. He lifted the lid of their box and said, "Virtuous son-in-law, these are jade belts, boots, dust wats, and saddles; There were also a hundred horses of red luo, a hundred pairs of silverware, and a hundred bodies of clothing; plus a dowry of 10,000 taels of silver and 10,000 taels of gold.

Hearing this, Li Yunlong secretly sighed: As the current Son of Heaven, Emperor Yongxi's move is really broad!

At this time, the voice of Emperor Yongxi greeted him warmly. And with the breeze drifting into his ears: Virtuous son-in-law, I am still holding a banquet in the imperial dining room to entertain you. The ministers of civil and military affairs have already gone, so let's hurry over!

Li Yunlong immediately took a step back, bent down and bowed deeply, and said, "Father, please go ahead."

Emperor Yongxi gave a thumbs up and praised with satisfaction: Virtuous son-in-law, he is really a "knowledgeable" descendant. Worthy of being my concubine!

As he spoke, he took Li Yunlong's hand and walked out of the side hall happily. Stepping up the corridor covered with the red carpet, his mouth was not idle: Virtuous son-in-law, I ordered the ruling prime minister a month ago to wear civilian clothes and shoes with straps, and go to the west corridor of the apse to inspect the dowry of the two princesses.

Speaking of this, Emperor Yongxi couldn't help but put up two fingers and said: One copy of each of the two princesses, a phoenix crown decorated with pearls, nine colorful brocade chickens, and four phoenixes, a gorgeous dress embroidered with pheasants, a pair of pearl jade pendants, a gold leather belt, a jade dragon crown, a jade ring, a comb ring of the North Pearl Crown Flower, a comb ring of the Seven Treasures Crown Flower, a pearl coat, a half-sleeved blouse, a pearl emerald collar four times of clothes, and a gold applicator with beads inlaid with treasure gold, gold coating, and gold pasting.

Of course, he did not forget to tell Li Yunlong: There are also items such as gold-pasted sedan chairs when traveling, as well as splendid silk and gold curtains, furnishings, mattresses, carpets, screens and other objects.

Li Yunlong's eyes widened when he heard this, and his mouth opened wide and he couldn't close it. I thought: The emperor married his daughter, and he made a big show. Ordinary people really don't even dare to think about it!

While speaking, Emperor Yongxi and Li Yunlong walked into the imperial dining room more than four meters away. I saw: the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, Empress Hua Yuling, the two princesses to be married, and all the descendants of the royal family. All of them sat at round tables with turntables, their eyes looking like they were taking pictures. All of them were thrown to the door without blinking!

Nine plates, nine bowls of meat and vegetarian dishes, brand-name candy, wine have been placed on the table. The royal band played festive music on the side, and the palace master led the dancers in the center of the feast. The beautiful, melodious music stretches and swirls in the air flow above the imperial dining room, setting off the graceful dance of the dancers. It's so beautiful!

Li Yunlong hurriedly walked in front of Empress Hua Yuling, opened the hem of the robe with both hands and knelt down and said: Queen Mother, the son is so polite!

Empress Hua Yuling pulled up Li Yunlong with a smile, and said with a smile: "Virtuous son-in-law, after tomorrow." We're all in the family! In the future, except for greeting in the morning and evening, there is no need to be so heavy in normal times. The boy has "gold under his knees"!

Hearing this, Li Yunlong hurriedly helped her to sit down first. Then, I walked to the middle of Wang Jinhua and Leping and sat down!

Immediately, everyone smiled and said: The emperor and the concubine are here, we can finally have a banquet. Drink wine and eat candy!

When the emperor heard this, he immediately walked to Empress Hua Yuling and sat down. Then he waved his hand at the big guy and shouted: Okay, I will do what you want. It's time to eat!

Next, the sound of alternating cups and laughter. It will be a luxurious, harmonious and festive scene!

The men were resounding with each other's cups. After the loud sound, their cheeks were smeared with a layer of red excitement. There are a lot of words; There are some men who are still guessing and drinking while drinking!

The women and the children were eating and drinking with drinks and vegetables, and seeing the men drinking with wine and vegetables, the children all shouted to their fathers: Daddy, stop drinking. Don't drink it anymore!

When the men heard this, they laughed and said: If we like to drink wine, our waist will not hurt. How can you not drink it? We don't just have to drink, we have to get drunk. Don't get drunk or disperse!

The women present here are all prominent Fujin, countesses, marquises, and duchesses. They all understand that a man has great self-esteem, and if he insists on rejecting his wishes in such a public place. He'll feel like he's been "chilled"!

Therefore, these women are simply pulling their children by their side. He smiled and said, "Hello, today is a day worth celebrating. Let your daddy drink to his heart's content!

Hearing this, the children all agreed understandingly: Mother, it's good.

Promised in their mouths, and one by one they all snuggled up in their mother's arms and swallowed their meals. Say no more!

After about a stick of incense, the wedding banquet finally ended "with a mess of cups and plates".

Li Yunlong stood up and left his seat, turned to Emperor Yongxi, bent down and knelt on his knees. Bow three times and chant loudly: Father, son, thank the lord Longen.

Seeing this, Emperor Yongxi hurriedly left his seat and came to his side, stretched out his hand to pull him up. While walking to the door of the imperial dining room, he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Virtuous son-in-law, I will stay in the Horse Mansion this afternoon to rest quietly." At four o'clock in the morning tomorrow, come to the palace to pick up the two princesses and go back to their hometown to complete the marriage!

Hearing this, Li Yunlong hurriedly clasped his hands into fists and said: Father, the son obeys the order.

While the group was talking, they had already walked outside the door of the imperial dining room.

The eunuch Xiao Dezi was already waiting outside the door, holding a horse draped with a saddle bridle painted with a golden lychee flower pattern and a mattress made of golden monkey fur.

Li Yunlong stepped forward, climbed on the back of the horse, held a whip woven of silk thread, and held a three-eaves umbrella on his head. The royal band, which consisted of fifty members, immediately walked ahead to play music to open the way. So the group left the palace and walked towards the Horse Mansion, which was to return to their future home in the capital.

At the same time, Emperor Yongxi turned to the chief eunuch beside him and said solemnly: Gonggong Li, the dowry items of the two princesses are all in accordance with the provisions of the "Hui Yao" of this dynasty. The relevant departments of the "Taichang Temple" will purchase and purchase well. By the evening of this day, I will send it to the Pony Mansion along with the items I have given to the Pony. No delays!

The chief eunuch and his husband agreed, and immediately turned around and ran to the "Taichang Temple".

The ministers of civil and military affairs, with their families and children, also bid farewell to Emperor Yongxi and Empress Hua Yuling. Leave the palace courtyard and go back to their respective mansions!

Looking at their backs, Emperor Yongxi turned to his heirs and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, you should also go back and rest for half a day." In the early morning of tomorrow morning, go to Li Mansion in Xiangma Town, Huai'an County, Northern Jiangsu!

Hearing this, all the royal heirs seemed to have made an appointment. They all turned to Emperor Yongxi and bent down to give a deep salute and said: Father, son, obey the order.

Then, they turned to Empress Hua Yuling and bent down to give a deep salute and said: Queen Mother, ten thousand blessings.

Then they turned and left, and ran to their palace in groups of three or five, giggling.

At this time, Gonggong Li, the chief eunuch, hurried over. shouted from afar: Your Majesty, the "Taichang Temple" has sent your reward to the princess, and all the dowry items of the two princesses have been sent to the concubine mansion!

Hearing this, Emperor Yongxi said with a smile: Gonggong Li, doing things is decisive and neat. I'm sorry for you, so let's go back and rest today!

When Gonggong Li, the chief eunuch, heard this, he turned around and ran to the backyard with great excitement: the house where he lived. Looking at the sun gradually setting westward, Emperor Yongxi turned to the woman beside him and said with a smile: Empress, it's not too early. Let's go to Changle Palace to rest!

As he spoke, he ran into Changle Palace with Empress Hua Yuling in his arms. As the palace door "creaked" shut, a debauched laughter sounded inside!

At four o'clock in the morning of the next day, Li Yunlong dressed in civilian clothes and wore a jade belt, and rode to the Hening Gate. There put on the wedding robe of the horse and made a hat to the side hall of Donghua Gate, and used wild geese, coins and silks as a dowry. In person, he went to the residence of the two princesses, "Shufang Building", to marry the bride.

At this time, the two princesses wore a crown of nine feathers and four phoenixes, a wedding dress embroidered with long-tailed pheasants and light red sleeves, sat in a sedan chair without barriers, and under the guidance of Li Yunlong, they left the palace and set off towards Li Mansion in Xiangma Town, Huai'an County, northern Jiangsu.

In front of the two bridesmaids' palanquins are: astronomical officials, servants who should be equipped according to the status of princesses, twenty pairs of candles and lanterns, corresponding envoys, eight boys with hairpins on their heads, four square fans, four round fans, ten pots of barrier flowers, twenty lanterns, obstacles, and obstacles.

Emperor Yongxi and Empress Hua Yuling rode in a Kowloon sedan chair, and the other royal heirs all rode horses. To the left and right of them and the two princesses, they are the two encircled sons of the Imperial Forest Army and the Jinyi Guard. All of them have spears and shields in their hands, ready to keep their masters safe!

followed by Li Yunlong's two "Bole" Yu Prime Minister and Liang Shangshu. At the back of the ride were: eight "guards with swords in front of the king". They all pricked up their ears and listened attentively, watching closely what was going on around them!

After all, it is thousands of miles away from the capital to the Li Mansion in Xiangma Town, Huai'an County, northern Jiangsu. The emperor is the Ninety-Five, and his safety is on his shoulders. Where do they dare to be negligent?
