Chapter 43: I'm Marrying, Not Learning

Pavilion Tao Princess Mansion.

Gongs and drums are noisy, and firecrackers are ringing in unison.

Today is a good day, it is the day when Liu Rong, the prince of the Han Dynasty, and Chen Ajiao, the daughter of Princess Guantao, are officially engaged.

Tangyi Hou Chen Wu was in a good mood.

Back then, his ancestor Chen Ying was also a great hero in the Chu and Han dynasties, and his strength was not weak, and others wanted to respect Chen Ying as the king.

But Chen Ying's mother strongly objected, saying that our family was poor and cheap, and now it is suddenly rich, which is not a good thing.

It's better to take refuge in others, so that you can make a steady profit without losing money. (If it is done, it will be less profitable; If it doesn't work, there will be a curse. )

Chen Ying agreed to his mother, first took refuge in Xiang Yu, and then in favor of Liu Bang, and killed the title of Marquis of Tangyi with one knife and one shot.

Who would have thought that the poor Chen family at the beginning is now the hottest family in the world.

Chen Wu, the marquis of the contemporary Tangyi, married the eldest princess of the Han court, and Chen Wu's daughter Chen Ajiao will marry the eldest prince of the Han Dynasty, and there is even a high probability of becoming the crown princess and queen of the Han Dynasty.

Just imagine, there are a few families in the world who can compete with the Chen family, but there are few!

Chen Wu held his chest high, he was proud!

。。。。。。

On the big day, everyone was happy, except for one person.

This person is Liu Rong.

It turned out that Liu De, the king of Hejian, and Liu Yan, the king of Linjiang, were reprimanded by Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty yesterday and ordered the two of them to return to China today.

Although today was a good day for Liu Rong to get married, the two of them did not dare to disobey the will of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, so they could only go out of the city early.

Liu Rong instructed the two to wait outside the city, and he wanted to rush to the suburbs to find them non-stop after mentioning his relatives.

After all, he is his own brother, and he always has to send a symbolic part.

He also prepared a small gift for the two of them.

What he didn't expect was that as soon as he arrived at Princess Guantao's mansion, it was as if he had come to a quagmire, trapped in, and couldn't get out.

He didn't understand, it was just a simple proposition, why the process was so complicated.

It's been more than half a day, and the process has only been going on for a small half time.

Liu Rong was unhappy.

He couldn't figure out what was the use of making the ritual so complicated?

It's useless.

The person who invented this ritual was definitely sick, seriously ill!

。。。。。。

According to the regulations, the wedding of the Han Dynasty is generally divided into six steps: Nacai, asking for names, Najib, Najib, soliciting, inviting and greeting.

When it comes to royalty, the process is even more cumbersome, much more than that.

Liu Rong's current progress is barely the first step, and there are still 108,000 miles away from entering the cave room.

But this first step is already extremely cumbersome.

The official in charge of presiding over the ceremony first read aloud an extremely awkward "confession."

What is "the best of the affection, happy Mo Weihu couple", what "guest bureaucrats, praying for cloud gathering", what "the group is auspicious, the two clans are happy", what is "sloppy, Mu Qiqi. ”

Liu Rong's culture is limited, so he doesn't understand what it means, anyway, it's just some auspicious words.

I read this bullshit article for a long time, and when I finished reading it, Liu Rong was very happy and said secretly: It's finally over.

He's still too young, so he's got there.

I just warmed up.

。。。。。。

The ceremony continued.

Accompanied by festive music, one gift after another was brought in.

These gifts are precious, the quantity is objective, and it can be said that they are priceless.

Each gift actually has an exclusive praise article dedicated to what the gift is, what are the benefits, and have such symbolic meaning.

For example, the sheep is a symbol of auspiciousness. "Sheep, auspicious. The group is not the party, kneeling is respectful, and the salute is considered to be good, and it is appropriate for auspicious things. ”

Sake, for example, is a sacrificial liquor that symbolizes the blessings of the ancestors, "sake brings blessings." ”

For example, baijiu is a ceremonial wine, symbolizing joy, "baijiu joy." ”

Other gifts include gold, coins, clothing, brocade, golden harvest, Lude vanilla, deer, relics, blessed beasts, glue, lacquer, phoenix, mandarin ducks, acacia bells, five-color silk, longevity, impotence and so on.

Each gift was accompanied by a stinky and long praise text, which made Liu Rong fall asleep.

He looked at the mountains of gifts outside, this Tamu must read the Year of the Monkey and the month of the horse.

Who knows what kind of moth will come after reading the gift praise.

Liu Rong suddenly regretted it, it's too troublesome to get married, if you don't get married, you won't get married.

You know, this is the first step, and there are still many steps waiting for him.

Under normal circumstances, it would take more than a year for the prince to marry from the beginning to the time he entered the cave house.

How many such etiquettes must be there this year, and it must not be as troublesome as ninety-nine eighty-one.

Liu Rong cried and sighed: God, spare me, I'm marrying a relative, not learning from experience!

。。。。。。

In the girl's room, the fragrance is thick and the color is abnormal.

Chen Ajiao sat in the room in a red dress, her delicate little face was full of anxiety: Why wait left and right, Brother Rong hasn't come in yet!

It was also the first time she had experienced this, and she had no experience.

How did she know that her brother Rong was going through many trials outside.

At this moment, Liu Rong was already bored, and he even wanted to sing a song: "I just captured a few demons, and I subdued a few demons, why is he so much!" ”

Looking at her daughter's anxious appearance, Princess Guantao sneered, "Silly girl, this matter is in a hurry, and the ceremony outside is only halfway through." ”

Chen Ajiao's eyes widened suddenly: "What? It's only half there! ”

Princess Guantao nodded and explained seriously:

"This is the royal majesty, the royal family is different from the people, the ceremony can not be sloppy, and there must be no one."

"These rituals can only be enjoyed by you, because you are his first wife, his first wife."

"If Rong'er marries another woman in the future, the ceremony will be much simpler. Those women are nothing more than slaves to your husband and wife. ”

Chen Ajiao nodded thoughtfully, and asked very innocently: "Mother, can Brother Rong marry me alone?" I don't want to share him with other women. ”

Princess Guantao shook her head: "Silly boy, how is it possible? She is a prince, she may be the crown prince or even the emperor in the future, how can she marry you alone? ”

Chen Ajiao asked puzzledly: "Then why did my father only marry one woman?" ”

Hearing this, Princess Guantao was speechless for a while.

She can't say, "Because I'm a princess, your father doesn't dare to marry another woman", and she can't say, "My mother actually has several faces besides your father."

"If you marry someone else, you may be able to, but marrying Rong'er is absolutely impossible." Princess Guantao didn't bother to explain, and said, "If you don't believe it, ask your grandmother to see if she agrees." ”

Hearing this, Chen Ajiao was slightly disappointed.

Immediately, she looked out the door with a wistful expression: why didn't he come yet.
