Chapter 503 Guests and friends come to congratulate
As the couple arrived, so did the guests.
All the ministers and soldiers who were good friends with the Qi family in the court, and the surrounding neighbors all arrived.
At this time, Princess Daya and the eldest prince came together.
When the old general and his wife heard this, they hurried to meet them.
"I have seen His Royal Highness the Great Prince, it is really an honor for my Qi family to come and congratulate me today, hurry up, please inside."
"This is Princess Daya, thank you for coming in today."
The servant behind the eldest prince handed over a box.
"This is my little heart, I wish the little general and the little general's wife can grow old together and give birth to a noble son early!" The eldest prince said with a smile.
"This is my gift."
Daya motioned for her maid to bring a long box, wrapped in a red wedding cloth.
"Thank you, thank you."
The old general and his wife thanked them again and again, and invited them in.
Not long after entering, there was another announcement outside.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come down!"
The voice was full of excitement.
Everyone looked at it curiously, and the old general Qi naturally didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly went to the front hall to greet the prince.
"I've met His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can come to congratulate my son, it's really a blessing for Sansheng, hurry up and go inside, the wine and food are ready!"
The eldest prince waved his hand again and again, and said sincerely: "Old general, you have galloped on the battlefield all your life, all for the court, for the people, and the army under his feet is like you, he has killed the enemy in all directions at a young age, guarding the frontier, guarding the people, he is married, how can I not come?"
"By the way, I also specially brought a pair of particularly precious pearls that I want to give to General Xiao Qi and his wife, hoping that the two of them can become a pair and be a couple."
"Thank you so much, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has bothered!"
With smiles on their faces, the couple slowly sent the prince in before they came out and continued to greet the other guests.
Some other people looked at the different attitudes of the eldest prince and the crown prince when they came, and they all secretly thought in their hearts.
The eldest prince seems to be a little too perfunctory, but His Royal Highness the crown prince seems to really respect General Qi's family.
There was a commotion in the wedding hall, and the guests gradually arrived.
Look, this person is almost here, and the time is approaching, the old general and his wife and Shen Yuzhong and his wife have come to the center of the happy hall to prepare for the ceremony.
At this time, a figure outside the door looked inside and walked in with some excitement.
The maid guarding at the door knew this young man, and said with a pleasant smile: "Brother Chang, you are also free today, come in, the ceremony is about to begin, Miss Ruyue is also inside, you go to him, today is a good day, remember to ask for a few more red envelopes, and be a little more happy."
The person lives on the opposite side and has a good relationship with Ruyue.
The people of the Shen family can basically see that this Brother Chang is very special to Ruyue, and the two of them are childhood sweethearts, maybe they will be able to achieve a beautiful marriage in the future, so that there are still people who occasionally make fun of them.
However, for the sake of Ruyue's reputation, Mo would always stop these people from joking.
And during this time, Brother Chang didn't know where to go, and rarely came to Ruyue to play, or teach him poetry, and bring him good food, so Ruyue was sad and worried for several days.
"Thank you."
Brother Chang said with a smile, and then ran happily into the house, and there was no trace of Ruyue in the front hall, it was he who ran to the backyard, and sure enough, he saw a few girls playing and eating in the backyard.
"Like the moon!"
His eyes lit up and he screamed quickly.
Ruyue, who heard the voice, also showed surprise on her face, and turned her head to see that it was him who immediately ran forward with his skirt and said in surprise: "It's considered to be here, I thought you wouldn't be here today, but the candy I just grabbed is delicious, you can taste it too."
As he spoke, he divided half of the candy in his hand and gave it to Brother Chang.
"Sister Ruyue is so nice."
Brother Chang took one of the candies and tore the candy wrapper, then slowly put the candy into his mouth, feeling the sweet taste, and smiled, "Why do you keep playing here? Why don't we go to the wedding hall to see the bride and groom, the hour is almost up, and the ceremony will begin soon."
"No."
Ruyue shook her head a little disappointed, "They said that the girl's family can't go to the front hall, there are too many people there, and it's not polite."
"Then we'll secretly watch it."
As he spoke, he grabbed Ruyue's wrist and ran in the direction of the front hall.
At this time, a strange person appeared at the gate again.
The man looked a little old, his face was a little pale, although the corners of his mouth were smiling, but there was fatigue in his eyes that could not be hidden, but there was an indescribable nobility in his words and deeds.
The man was followed by a middle-aged man with a white face and beard, who held the hand of his master, his back was always slightly bent, and he stood there like a crooked neck tree firmly rooted in the mud.
"Who are you?"
The maid asked with some confusion.
"Naturally, I'm here to congratulate General Qi Xiao, this is the wedding card we received, take a look."
It was not the old man with a noble body who spoke, or the tree-like man with a crooked neck, his voice was a little unusually sharp, and the little girl who listened was a little scared in her heart.
He took the post and looked at it carefully, although he was illiterate, but he also recognized that it was indeed a wedding card sent by the general, so he hurriedly took the two of them in, and prepared to pass it on, but was stopped by the man with a noble face.
"There is no need to let the master's family come out to greet us, we are too late, if we let him come out, won't it delay the auspicious time of the newcomer, we ourselves will go over."
As soon as he finished saying what the little maid wanted to say, the guy who was holding the man frowned and whispered.
"Stand down!"
Although it was only a small sentence, the little maid was subconsciously afraid and didn't think much about it, so she nodded, and then returned to the door.
For some reason, she looked at the two of them and felt a little scared.
The beginning has arrived, and the ceremony has begun.
"Worship heaven and earth!"
The loud voice of the group sounded in the happy hall, and Shen Yueqiu and his hand bowed together to face the heaven and earth.
"Two worship the high church!"
The two turned around and continued, and above the high hall, it was not only Qi Jingxing's parents who were sitting, but also Shen Yueqiu's parents.
It's a little bit of a spectacle for most people who come here.
And most of these people are still pedantic and rigid Wenchen, seeing this unruly scene, their brows immediately furrowed like twisted hemp rope, and their faces were even more twisted and tangled, like eating.
