Chapter 30: The Bride Enters the House
However, after saying such a sentence, he took a deep look at her and turned away.
He didn't give her an order, let alone a curse. He didn't say anything decisive, he didn't say anything about ties. It was only after knowing her choice that he followed the queen mother's decree, stopped pestering, and left......
If the last sentence can be regarded as a hidden word he gave her, then what does he imply......
Does that mean that this oath will not change, or does it mean that it ...... He has thrown away this oath today......
Rong Yunxi didn't know, she couldn't guess, and she couldn't guess......
During the whole process of Rong Yunxi's choice, King Chen always smiled at the corner of his mouth, stood with his hands in his hands, and looked at Rong Yunxi with interest. There was no expectation or worry in his eyes, and there was no surprise at the moment when she made her choice.
Because he knew it was the only choice she could make.
This little woman is also helpless......
Her endurance and forbearance are far beyond ordinary people.
King Chen helped Rong Yunxi and helped her to the sedan chair. As she got into the sedan chair, she heard the sound of him riding his horse and whipping, and the sound of the guards following him. The sound of such a war horse is so harsh and so shocking in this prosperous, rich, peaceful and peaceful Kyoto city......
Rong Yunxi's movements paused, but it was only this pause. Immediately, she calmly got on the sedan chair.
King Chen personally put down the sedan curtain for her, and didn't say anything. But he strode forward, took his horse, and turned over on it.
Father-in-law Jiang hurriedly said: "The prince took the princess to the palace...... Car ......"
With this voice, joy and sedan chair rise together. The sound of earth-shattering joy is so cheerful, and the sedan chair is so light and smooth, as if nothing had just happened.
Or maybe it's just a dream...... It was just a dream that she thought was going to happen, that she was looking forward to in the deepest part of her heart......
However, his painful voice still echoed in his ears clearly, completely overshadowing the noise of joy.
He said: "A couple for a lifetime, and I never get tired of seeing each other until I am white-headed......"
What does he mean by this...... Or did I just suddenly remember, so I just said it, just talking.
But Rong Yunxi couldn't figure out what she wanted him to mean, whether it was a promise or a throwaway.
Reason told her that it would be more pleasant to throw it away. But the heart told her that the affection in her heart was still there, and this marriage was just a transaction, and he shouldn't have thrown away the promise so early, they ......
Rong Yunxi didn't think about it anymore, because she wasn't sure if there was a chance between them......
She just knew that her heart for him was still there. Her mind has never changed.
All the way to Chenwang's Mansion, under the guidance of Hong official media, from entering the door, to the brazier, to entering the house, it was all completed smoothly.
At the time of worship, because it was a royal marriage, the high hall was in the palace, and the father of the royal daughter-in-law could not be sent to the in-law's house, so the worship of the high hall was only to worship the two high chairs placed in the direction of the palace. In the direction of the General's Palace, there are no chairs, because the prince does not have to bow down to his ministers, which is also to maintain the prestige of the royal family.
At last...... Husband and wife worship each other......
Rong Yunxi and King Chen stood opposite each other, and bowed down slowly at the same time.
Rong Yunxi didn't get up quickly, but ...... It stopped for a long time. She didn't know why she was pausing like that. Xu was because of the four words "husband and wife worship", which hit her heart heavily, and she was infected by this atmosphere for a while.
And King Chen, but he didn't get up immediately, and he also maintained this posture for a long time......
Father-in-law Jiang is very good at reading colors, and when he saw this, he also waited for a long time before he raised his voice and said: "Licheng ......"
When King Chen got up, he helped her.
Rong Yunxi bowed his knees slightly to show his gratitude.
King Chen wants to stay in this Shengping courtyard to accept the toast of the guests, and also to entertain the guests. Rong Yunxi was supported by Hong Guanmei, followed by the early summer and Zhiqiu who were married, and under the guidance of the head of the palace, Jin Mama, all the way to the Zhaode Courtyard where King Chen gave the princess.
On the way, I heard Mama Jin say: "This Zhaode Courtyard was specially given to Niang Niang by His Royal Highness." His Royal Highness lives in Zhaoxian Temple, Niangniang's Zhaode Temple, just in the name, is a perfect match with His Royal Highness, it can be seen that His Royal Highness loves Niangniang. ”
"Borrow Mama's auspicious words." Rong Yun Xi Road.
The Chenwang Mansion was built on the site of the former Prince's Mansion and covers a huge area. Although Rong Yunxi had been here twice before, what he saw was only the tip of the iceberg, and he did not see the whole picture of this Chenwang Mansion.
I walked a long way from Shengpei Temple, but I still didn't get to Shotokuin Temple, but this journey was not boring.
Every time she walked to a place with a good view, Mama Jin would tell her the name of this place, and vividly described the scenery of this place in words.
Listen to the rain pavilion, look for incense Xiaoxie, hibiscus, lotus pond, ask Liuzhai......
Everywhere, just listening to the name is extremely beautiful. So much so that Rong Yunxi was really interested in the scenery in the palace of King Chen, thinking that in addition to this hijab, he must take a good look in the mansion tomorrow.
When I came with Yunshang before, I found that there were many rockery streams in this palace, which was quite garden-like. And the rockery is located in order, which isolates each house group well, and there is no roof ridge elsewhere here, which is unique in the construction of the garden.
"Niangniang, we are now on a path between rockeries, out of this path, is a willow forest, among which there is an independent room, which is the place where His Royal Highness reads and learns on weekdays, called 'Ask Liu Zhai'. The willow forest is also mixed with plum trees, and it is planted in the order of one willow tree and one plum tree. His Royal Highness is here to ask Liu Zhai to read, you can enjoy the willows in summer and plum blossoms in winter, which is very pleasant. ”
"Mama, if that's the case, why don't you call it 'Ask Mei Zhai'? Listening to the meaning of asking Liu Zhai, it seems to be looking for flowers, where is it like a place to do learning? Hatsu asked.
"In early summer, don't talk nonsense." Rong Yunxi reminded.
"It's okay miss", but the little girl didn't think anything, "The slave looked at the grandmother very kindly, not like the person who picks and chooses." The slave just felt curious, so she asked, and Mama wouldn't mind. ”
Mama Jin hurriedly smiled: "Don't blame the girl, the slave girl looks at the early summer girl so innocent, and she likes it very much, how can she bear to find fault with her?" What's more, Niangniang's teaching on weekdays is excellent, and there is nothing wrong with the girl. ”
"Speaking of which, it may be that in the back house, in the courtyard where the concubines and wives live, there is a plum fragrance garden, and His Royal Highness feels that it is not appropriate to call the word 'plum' here. And His Royal Highness is known for his style, the word 'willow' is more in line with the meaning of a gentleman, not like the word 'plum', it is inevitable that there will be some daughters. ”
Mama Jin's voice is very gentle, not hurried, not half arrogant, and no sense of flattery.
Rong Yunxi listened to her words and liked it very much in her heart. So he also smiled: "Mama explained very well." ”
"Niangniang, be careful, we are about to cross the willow forest...... "Mama Jin reminded, and said, "Your Highness's Wenliuzhai is located in the willow forest, and there are willow and plum trees in front of and behind the house." After this question, after walking for a while, there is a small stream, the same as the hibiscus and the lotus pond, which are all living water drawn from the moat river outside the city. It is said that the prince's mansion and the courtyard of the East Palace also attract water from the moat river. ”
"The slave said that it is far away", Jin Mama said with a smile, "Let's talk about this stream, the name of this creek is 'Jing Wei', which means that the front house and the back house are 'Jing Wei distinct'." The concubines are not allowed to come to the front house through this stream. This willow forest, asking Liuzhai, is not a place where beauties and girls can come. If there is any beauty or girl who wants to go to the front house to see His Highness, he can only go to the garden. It can only be seen after the communication of the Yunshang girl or the little girl Zhuo wine. ”
Rong Yunxi listened to Mama Jin's tone and wording, and knew that this was not a person who loved to talk a lot on weekdays. So although she has a lot of words now, Rong Yunxi listens to it, but she doesn't feel disgusted.
This Mama Jin probably felt that the princess had just entered the palace and didn't know much about the palace, so she took advantage of the way to say everything she could think of. It can be seen that he is thoughtful.
Along the way, even if she has not officially met Mama Jin, Rong Yunxi has already admired her very much.
"Mama, now that we have walked through this willow forest, we have passed this Liuzhai and asked Liuzhai, and we are obviously going to cross Jingwei Creek later, so isn't it breaking the rules set by His Highness?"
"His Royal Highness is sympathetic to the mother, and specially instructed the slave and maid to lead the mother to the road. And worried that Niangniang would find it boring, she deliberately asked the slave to tell Niangniang some scenery and characters in the house, so that Niangniang could understand it at the beginning. ”
Rong Yunxi smiled, but she was afraid that King Chen would let Mama Jin tell her that the scenery was fake, and she wanted Mama Jin to open the conversation box first, so that she could ask Mama Jin about the characters in this mansion, which was true.
It's also considerate enough.
And I didn't expect that King Chen seemed to be bohemian, but the slaves and maids serving in the house were all very well-behaved. Could it be that these slaves and maids who know the rules just happened to get to King Chen's Mansion? It happened to be reused by King Chen?
Naturally, this is not the case, it can be seen that King Chen is still very thoughtful in knowing and employing people.
I just don't know if these considerations will be used to choose women. I don't know if the concubines in King Chen's Mansion are as sensible as the slaves and maids in King Chen's Mansion I saw.
Since King Chen paved the way for her, she couldn't help asking.
"Niangniang, after 'Jingwei', it is the land of the back house where the concubines and wives live. Niangniang's Zhaode Courtyard is different from the courtyard of the ladies, it is the largest and most gorgeous, and it is the first courtyard in this back house. After 'Jingwei' and a small willow forest, it is the Zhaode Courtyard of Niangniang. Mama Jin said.
Rong Yunxi asked through her words: "Now in the back house, counting the famous and unfamous, how many concubines are there?" ”
"Hui Niangniang, there are eight in total." Mama Jin said.
