Chapter 545: Faint Bow, Welcome Kiss
Between the quiet pavilions, you can still hear the noise coming from the front yard.
In the backyard, there are only Li Xuan and Li Xian.
In the flower pond in the courtyard, lotus flowers are still blooming.
By the pool, Li Xian's expression was a little lonely, his footsteps stopped, and he looked sideways at Li Xuan: "Uncle Wang, Xian really envy you!"
"Your Highness said and laughed, it should be that the minister envies you, at least your parents are complete, blessed and healthy, unlike the minister, you have to rush to kill the battlefield at a young age, everyone says that the minister is a nobleman and should not charge ahead, but no one knows, if you don't do this, how can you get the favor of the two saints." Li Xuan's expression was very calm, but Li Xian knew that what Li Xuan said was the truest thoughts in his heart.
Rushing to kill is the easiest to achieve, and rushing to kill is also the easiest to die.
In this way, it is the most reassuring.
Li Xian smiled bitterly and said, "Xian has something to tell Uncle Wang, in mid-June, the queen mother accepted two side ladies for Xian."
"Huh?" Li Xuan's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Li Xian in disbelief.
In mid-June, the news of the death of Princess Zhao had just come out in a low-key manner, and Empress Wu had already taken a concubine for Li Xianxin.
Li Xuan had never heard anyone talk about this matter, and if Li Xian hadn't told him today, he wouldn't have known about it at all.
Even Li Xuan can be sure that there are not many people in the entire Chang'an who know about this matter now.
After all, the Empress Wu is only two side ladies for Li Xian, and there is no need to alarm the government and the opposition.
In the Tang system, the prince can have one concubine, two widows, ten concubines, princesses, one product, one person, and five products; Mei, depending on the six products.
Li Xian had a few intercourse girls before Zhao Qi, but since he married Princess Zhao Qi, he only loved Zhao Qi alone.
Young couples always have to love each other for a few years, not to mention that they have not been married for a year in total.
But now, as soon as Zhao Qi died, Empress Wu immediately returned to Li Xian to recruit newcomers, at least the resentment in Li Xian's heart was not so big.
The relationship between Li Xian and the Zhao family was also completely broken at this moment.
Good means, good intentions!
"One of them is the daughter of the Cui family of Qinghe, and she is a relative of Dr. Chaosan; There is another one, who is the daughter of Cheng Wei Xuanzhen of Wannian County." Li Xian looked at Li Xuan with a hint of amusement in his sadness.
Li Xuan's cousin, Zhao Gong, a doctor in Chaosan, and his aunt Cui were born in the Cui family of Qinghe.
Li Xuan's teacher, Wei Xuanzang, was born in Jingzhao Webster.
I can't hide from it!
Li Xuan's mind calmed down, and then his expression narrowed, and he said softly: "That's why His Royal Highness will 'meet the son of the official department Shangshu and the member of the household department' at the gate of the palace."
"It's just a coincidence, it's obvious that I'm here to celebrate Uncle Wang's wedding today." Li Xian's bitter gaze concealed a hint of eagerness.
Li Xuan patted Li Xian's shoulder and motioned him to move forward, Li Xian was slightly surprised and continued to walk.
"The minister went to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince a few days ago." Li Xuan opened his mouth to say a word, which made Li Xian's mind concentrate, and then he heard Li Xuan say: "Then I saw that His Royal Highness looked a little tired, and after asking the next person, I learned that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Queen of Heaven had a lot of trouble for a while because of a few twists and turns, just like when I was filial to the emperor."
Li Xian was slightly stunned, and subconsciously followed Li Xuan's footsteps, and after just a moment, he couldn't help but stop, and looked at Li Xuan with a shocked face: "Uncle Wang means Brother Wang......
"The minister didn't say anything." Li Xuan waved his hand directly, but his footsteps stopped: "Your Highness, there are no parents in this world who are not, everything is the fault of their children, Your Highness should remember this. Filial piety comes first, and the rest is left to its own devices, and sometimes it is more wrong to do more."
After a slight pause, Li Xuan then instructed: "His Royal Highness loves to play, and the ministers do not object, but this play needs to be orderly, moderate, moderate, and powerful.
When Li Xuan said this, it was already a little explicit, but Li Xian had already heard it very clearly, he nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Xian understands."
"I have
system, the person who is recommended is guilty, and the person who recommends is also guilty, and Your Highness should carefully distinguish between them." Li Xuan stood by the lotus pond and said softly: "Your Highness should do things like spring breeze and rain, and you should be calm and selfless, or you can joke about it, there are light and heavy ones, and Your Highness should control the scale yourself."
"It's written." Li Xian is very smart, and he can understand the meaning of Li Xuan's words.
"Your Highness must remember to be steady, do things for others, and don't be in the slightest hurry, the most important thing is that Your Highness should also carefully observe the court situation, and most importantly, you must see clearly how the Queen of Heaven will deal with the Prince when the relationship between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Queen of Heaven is tense." Li Xuan's last sentence was extremely serious, and Li Xian's face was suddenly stunned.
Li Xiandu is already a prince, but when Li Xuan mentioned Empress Wu, it was very clear that Empress Wu had the ability to dispose of the prince at will.
Thinking of the death of his wife, Li Xian sighed deeply, nodded and said, "Xian has written it down."
Li Xuan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Let's go, today, Uncle Han, Aunt Huainan, as well as all the royal brothers, all the cousins, and even the martial family have people here, Your Highness should see them one by one."
Li Xian's footsteps just took pause, and he asked in surprise, "Martial artist, who is it?"
"Secretary and supervisor, Wu Chenghe." Li Xuan walked forward.
It's not Wu Sansi.
At noon, most of the people who had arrived at Peng Wang's Mansion were relatives inside and outside the royal family, relatives of the Ouyang family, Li Xuan was in Dianzhong Province, Dali Temple, and some friends, colleagues and subordinates who knew Qianniuwei and Jin Wuwei.
In the afternoon, most of the guests who came to the door were the nobles of Lord Chang'an, and there were more and more people after many years of personal contacts.
Before Li Xuan set off, officials from the capital water supervisor, Honglu Temple, and Zongzheng Temple came one after another, and even Liu Yicong, the son of Liu Xianli, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, also came on behalf of his father, after all, at the funeral in Yanzhuang, the two had a private conversation.
After that, although Yan Zhuang died in Muzhou, the news of his death again was covered up by Li Xuan, and even some of the hard work was cleverly taken away by Li Xuan, which made the two saints feel more guilty about the Yan family, and Yan Tai had been ordered to be recalled.
The people's hearts and minds in the middle of this are incomprehensible to ordinary people, but Liu Xianli is very clear, so he sent a son to celebrate.
Tang bowed.
"Rite": The wedding must be faint, and the yang will come and the yin will come.
"The Book of Rites: Duyi": Those who faint will combine the two surnames, and the upper and lower will be inherited by future generations, so the gentleman is important.
"White Tiger Pass" says: The married person is said to salute at dusk, so it is called marriage.
According to the rules of the hexagram, the auspicious time of Li Xuan's worship hall is set at the third quarter of the first month, and the time to set off to welcome relatives is at the moment of Shenzheng.
Shen Zheng, three gongs sounded, and a large heaven and earth table was placed in the front yard.
It enshrines the gods of Haotian, Yaochi Jinmu and other heavenly gods, Li Xuan's aunt Huainan eldest princess, and Li Xuan's mentor Xuanzang Zhenren stand on both sides.
Li Xuan wore a bright red groom's robe, hung a big red flower on his chest, and wore a black three-colored seven-beam crown, standing in front of the heaven and earth table and prostrating three times.
The auspicious sedan chair was carried from the courtyard to the door, and Li Xuan, surrounded by a group of guards in red and red clothes and gold armor, went out of the Peng Wangfu together, and rode on a white high-headed horse, the cross was draped in red, which was extremely eye-catching.
Behind him, a group of Qianniu guards rode on black horses, protecting both sides of the sedan chair.
Many of Li Xuan's relatives and friends also followed behind the sedan chair.
More people from the palace were dressed in new clothes, holding lanterns, holding incense burners, blowing drums, and sending each other off in a noisy manner.
But more people still stayed in Peng Wangfu.
is like Wu Chenghe, his eyes are lowered, and he counts silently in his heart.
The nephew of the right minister Dai Zhide, the youngest son of Zhao Renben in the subordinate servant, the nephew of the Huangmen servant Laiheng, the eldest son of Li Jingxuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, the son of Liu Xianli, the Lang Zhong of the Ministry of Rites, the Wailang of the Ministry of War, and the Wailang of the Household Department. Look at the book
Dali Temple Shaoqing Huang Rensu, will be the general Yang, the palace Wang Dezhen, the water supervisor Li Sui,
There are also congratulatory guests from Yangzhou, Muzhou, Hangzhou, Yuezhou, Wuzhou, Hongzhou, and Pengzhou.
Counting the royal family, the noble family, the general of Qianniuwei, medium
Lang will wait and so on.
There is also the crown prince Li Xian, who has not yet arrived, and the connections of the king of Nanchang are all shown at this moment.
Wu Chengsi finally understood that it was not for nothing that the Queen of Heaven made him befriend the King of Nanchang.
The king of Nanchang is not the kind of person who is good at having fun and socializing in the clan, so aside from those old people in the Peng Wangfu, most of the others are the personal connections of the king of Nanchang, and they are all people in key positions in the three provinces, six departments, nine temples and five prisons.
The most important thing is that he will marry the granddaughter of Zuo Xiang Liu Renliang today, and the senior officials of the three provinces, six departments, nine temples and five prisons have all gone there.
After today, the king of Nanchang's connections don't know how far to spread.
He has already established himself in the middle of the DPRK.
This is just a king of Nanchang, others like King Han, King Huo, King Teng and the like, the connections between the government and the opposition are even more extensive to the point that I don't know how much.
Just as Wu Chengsi was thinking, a shout suddenly came from outside: "His Royal Highness King Xiang has arrived, Her Royal Highness Princess Taiping has arrived!"
Wu Chengsi was surprised, why did he come so early.
Yongxingfang is not far from Kaihuafang, but it still took more than half an hour to arrive at the Lecheng County Mansion.
When I arrived outside the gate of the Lecheng County Mansion, it was already sunset.
"Bang Bang" In the sound of firecrackers, Li Xuan slowly pulled the horse rope in front of the door.
With a slight sweep of his eyes, all around him were neighbors who came to see the bustle, and officials from the government and the opposition.
Yongxingfang was originally on the east side of the imperial city, and it was the granddaughter of the left minister, and the officials of all the ministries arrived.
After the officials of the court were on duty, everyone who had nothing to do rushed here to eat the flowing water feast.
As soon as the welcoming team arrived, for a while, I don't know how many curious eyes fell on Li Xuan.
Sitting on the tall horse, Li Xuan bowed slightly to everyone, then turned over and dismounted directly.
In front of the Lecheng County Mansion, red lanterns were hung on both sides, and red silk peach branches were hung all over.
In front of the gate of the house, there are a large number of relatives blocking the door at this moment.
Most of them are young men and women, and there are also several children, playing and funny.
A lot of red envelopes of happy money were sprinkled, laughing and everyone gave way, and the big red sedan chair was carried into the house, and then was led to the bride's boudoir.
Li Xuan was introduced to the main hall.
In the main hall, there are many elders and relatives of the Liu family, and only Li Xuan's father-in-law Liu Yuanlang and mother-in-law Zhou are sitting under the middle hall.
Li Xuan was led to her father-in-law and mother-in-law, and then held Mu Yan with both hands.
Liu Yuanlang took it with both hands and put it on the table.
Li Xuan bowed down and bowed three times: "The little son-in-law knocks to see the father-in-law and mother-in-law."
"Son-in-law, please." Liu Yuanlang handed a red purse to Li Xuan and helped him up.
"Thank you, father-in-law, and mother-in-law." Li Xuan bowed to Liu Yuanlang and his wife again.
At this point, Li Xuan bowed heavily to the many relatives around him, and then he was introduced to the back hall.
There are not many people in the back hall, only the uncle of the Liu Mansion, some older elders of the uncle, sitting in the middle of the back hall, is the left minister Liu Renliang, behind Liu Renliang, there is a row of Liu ancestor tablets.
Li Xuan was led to Liu Renliang, first solemnly bowed his hands, then knelt on the futon, and finally bowed three times.
At this time, Liu Renliang sighed softly, reached out and patted Li Xuan's shoulder, and said, "Treat Sanniang well."
"The son-in-law will not live up to the trust of his father-in-law." Li Xuan bowed his hand again.
When he came out of the back hall, there was immediately another commotion of laughter all around.
In the courtyard on both sides, you can see many shadows in the middle of the court.
Li Xuan bowed slightly, and then walked quickly to the bridal boudoir in the backyard.
