06 Big Wedding
They dressed up for Jielan, and then put on the sewn wedding robe, exquisite makeup with the luxurious red robe, Jielan was extremely beautiful at this time, these palace maids were ashamed of themselves when they saw her so bright and incompatible, and they didn't dare to look up.
Jielan was accompanied by eight palace maids on the phoenix sedan chair that had already stopped outside the palace gate, and the eight guards lifted the sedan chair and walked towards the main hall, and the eight palace maids stood on the side of the sedan chair, escorting the future queen of the city to the happy hall and receiving the ceremony!
Sitting in the sedan chair, Jielan's hands were clasped tightly, nervousness and despair had made her a little out of will, perhaps few people were like her, distressed about becoming the queen of the city, and afraid, there was still a trace of thought in her heart, and she thought that the person who was far away in the royal city would come to save her immediately when he heard that he became the queen of the city, but why didn't he hear his message until now, nor did he hear any signs that he was coming to this Qingzhou City, maybe he really forgot about him, so when he knew that he was about to marry the lord of this Yuqing City, There is no opinion, maybe a generous gift will be given as a congratulatory gift to the royal city.
Thinking of this, Jielan's heart hurt terribly, and she wanted to shed tears, but she was forced back by Jielan, because she didn't want to let others see her crying at such a time, let alone let the city lord see her crying.
The sedan chair stopped at the door of the main hall, the palace maid opened the sedan curtain, and helped Jielan out of it, the lord of Yuqing City greeted her and stretched out her right hand, Jielan put her hand in her hand, and walked to the front of the soothsayer, the soothsayer saluted the two, and then recited words in his mouth, and threw the hexagram in his hand to the ground, forming a hexagram of devouring, the soothsayer was shocked, because he knew that this hexagram was a fierce hexagram, which meant that the husband and wife would hate each other, but if the meaning of the hexagram was said here, he himself would inevitably cast a shadow on the wedding, It will make the city lord unhappy, so he said: "This hexagram is a good fortune hexagram, symbolizing that the Qing Zhou city will be wind and rain, the city lord and the queen husband and wife will be harmonious, and the people will be born, which is an auspicious omen." ”
After the divination ceremony was completed, the city lord walked into the main hall with Jielan, and when he walked into the main hall, he heard a familiar call, "Blue, blue!" ”
Jielan hurriedly turned her head sideways and looked at the place where the voice came from, but saw that behind the officials in the main hall, there were Qi Xue and Long Yi standing, both of them were watched by the guards, so they wanted to rush to Jielan's side, but they were pulled by the guards and couldn't get out.
"Lan, how did it become like this, how did you agree to become the queen of the city?" Qi Xue didn't care that this was at the wedding ceremony, all she thought of was Jielan's grievances, and she also knew that Jielan must be to save Chengfeng, so she agreed to Yu Qing's request, otherwise, how could Jielan be willing to become the queen of the city.
Jielan was afraid that Qi Xue would be punished for this, so she shook her head and signaled her not to shout anymore, and not to say something that should not be said in this hall.
Yu Qing said: "I didn't expect your friend to be so reluctant for you to marry me, it seems that I, the city lord, will love you more in the future, so that your friend can rest assured." ”
Jielan under the red veil sneered: "As long as I agree to marry the city lord, why bother with them?" If the lord of the city cares about their opinions, I am afraid that he will not be able to marry me in this life. ”
Yu Qingdun felt that there was a faint hatred in Jielan's words, although he wanted to know why this was so, but he couldn't ask.
The next thing is to meet the envoys from all the cities and counties who came to congratulate, the city lord took Jielan's hand and thanked these envoys one by one, but when the envoys from Chiyan City came to congratulate, Jielan was shocked in her heart, she didn't know who came to congratulate her? However, when that familiar figure appeared in front of her, Jielan was really almost about to cry.
And that person is Luomo, he has a tough appearance as before, and he has an indifferent face as before, he walked to Jielan, looking at the person he hadn't seen for more than a month but now he had become the queen of his city, he couldn't believe what he said, he looked at Jielan in a daze, and said for a long time: "Xuanming City Lord asked me to say hello to you on his behalf, and he asked me to convey a word to you, saying that you remember where you were going when you first met?" ”
Jielan's words made her feel as if she was struck by thunder, she stood stunned, holding the messenger's hand and trembling, maybe others didn't know the meaning of this sentence, but Jielan knew that the Xuanming City Lord conveyed this sentence to tell her that in the past, she could give up her life to complete what she wanted to accomplish and never retreat, but now why should she stay in this Qing Zhou City and become the queen of the city, and abandon what she should do.
But why didn't Jielan want to leave, but she was helpless, she only said: "Please convey it to the Xuanming City Lord, just say that he still remembers those people who were trapped in the Northern Flame Land, and has he treated them well?" ”
When Luo Mo heard this, she immediately understood, Jielan mentioned those prisoners in the Northern Flame Land, and knew that what she meant was helpless, and she was powerless to fight, so she had to accept her fate, she hoped that someone would come to her rescue, but she didn't know if she could hope for it.
Luo Mo glared angrily at the Yuqing City Lord beside Jielan, and said, "Yuqing City Lord really has a good vision, and he actually chose Miss Jielan, who is loved by our subjects in Chiyan City. ”
"I believe that this is the fate between the master and Jielan, and thank you for the people of Chiyan City who also love the lord's city so much, the lord is bound to treat her well, and will not disappoint the people of Chiyan City." Although the language was mild, both Jielan and Luo Mo could hear it, and there was a sense of competition in the words, but also some anger.
Luomo looked at Jielan, but he was helpless to help, even if he wanted to save Jielan, but he couldn't snatch Jielan away from the main hall of this city, and Jielan said that she couldn't help herself, which means that there was something that bound her so that she couldn't get out, so she had to agree to the city lord's request, if she acted recklessly, I was afraid it would only make her embarrassed.
"Then I hope this is the blessing of the city lord of Yuqing." There were words in Luomo's words, as if to warn Yu Qing that insisting on forcing Jielan to join him would only bring disaster to him.
Jielan looked at the hard and cold man in front of her who had experienced life and death with her, and suddenly felt that the past years were still vivid, but unfortunately those days were gone.
Yu Qing held Jielan's hand tightly, because it was too tight, Jielan only felt some pain in her wrist, it seemed that the man next to her still cared about what Luomo said, otherwise why was he so angry?
The arrival of Romo did not change anything, and the wedding went on as usual. After receiving the envoys, the formal marriage ceremony was to begin, and the decree was unfurled and read out, only to hear it read:
In the prosperous world, all the people celebrate together, magpie joy spring, peony competition, the king's order is called, give Qing red lotus, and then Jielan is the daughter of the sky, benevolent and heroic, smart and beautiful, win the hearts of the people, can mother the world, the Lord named it the Qing Zhou City, respect the Holy Grace, bless the Qing Zhou!
After Gonggong Li finished reading, Jielan should have accepted the decree, but she hesitated for a long time and did not accept the decree, which surprised the ministers on the spot and muttered to each other.
Jielan knew that as long as she received the order, she would become the queen of the city and could not change it, and she also knew that as long as she received the order, even if the second thing was completed, then saving Chengfeng would be one step closer, but at this time, what flashed in Jielan's mind was the figure of the woman named Mingqi last night, and her screams couldn't help but echo in her ears.
If what she said is true, then is she really going to marry such a hypocritical and cruel person?
Just when she was having a hard time, she heard a burst of laughter from the main hall, the laughter was so familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere, everyone's eyes looked at the place where the voice came from, but saw a handsome man in a purple and gold robe striding in from outside the hall, and this person was Yu Qing's younger brother Yu Ning.
He walked up to Jielan and said to the city lord of Yuqing, who was a little displeased: "I didn't expect Brother Cheng to have a happy day, but he didn't let the attendants inform Brother Cheng, what does Brother Cheng mean?" ”
Yu Qing smiled slightly: "Brother Cheng is greedy for fun every day, and the master is afraid of disturbing your interest, so he didn't report it, but since Brother Cheng is here now, Brother Cheng is also quite happy, so please wait for a few more drinks before returning to your 'Yonghe Palace'." ”
Yu Ning didn't have much interest in drinking, just looked at Jielan with interest, and sighed: "I didn't expect that a few days ago, I looked at an ordinary woman who was dressed up today, but she also has a bit of a posture, it seems that Brother Cheng's vision is still a little clumsy, and I don't have such a foresight as Brother Cheng." ”
Yu Qing and Jielan were both displeased when they heard this, Yu Qing was a little angry, and said: "Brother Cheng must be drunk, let's go down first, and wait for Jielan to take over the decree, and then talk about it." ”
Yu Ning didn't have the slightest intention of leaving, he looked at Jielan intently, and finally showed a strange smile, and said: "Brother Cheng must have been deceived by her, do you know that she is an extremely frivolous woman, you also want to take this kind of woman?" ”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Yu Qing was really a little unbearable.
"Don't Brother Cheng believe me? If you don't believe her, ask her, where did she go last night? Yu Ning asked with a big drink.
The ministers were in an uproar, and they all looked at Jielan in amazement, full of questions.
And Jielan herself was also shocked, thinking to herself that if she broke into the forbidden land and was seen by this world, would he reveal it to his city brother now? Shall not he and the woman suffer because of this, and all will be in vain?
When he was worried about himself, he heard Yu Qing say angrily: "You won't believe what you say, the master won't believe it, you better go!" His face was flushed with anger, but this anger was obviously not only because of Yu Ning's nonsense, but also because he also had doubts in his heart, after all, Jielan suddenly disappeared last night, and returned to the 'Jiaolan Palace' after an hour, during which she went and what she did, everyone must want to know.
