According to the regular etiquette system of the Great Zhou, the crown prince's canonization ceremony is usually held in the early morning, and the big wedding is usually held at dusk.

If this is the case, Chu Yan will first accept the crown prince, and then marry Shen Lingxi into the East Palace with the gift of the prince.

Chu Yan was not willing to do this.

He wanted to go through this ritual with Shen Lingxi.

Therefore, the queen mother was asked to come forward to say something, and the emperor agreed, and the Ministry of Rites revised the etiquette system, and then asked Qin Tianjian to re-deduce the auspicious time, which set the entire ceremony of the wedding and canonization.

In this way, early in the morning, Shen Lingxi, accompanied by Dou Shiyao, the Duke of Dingguo, the Cai family, and the patriarch of the Shen family, worshiped the spiritual seat of the Shen family's grandmother, Mrs. Wang, and Shen Laoweng.

When it arrived, the jade chariot of the imperial grandson Chu Yan arrived, Chu Yan went to the door to perform the Dian Yan ceremony, and the Duke of Dingguo and the Duchess of the Kingdom acted as Shen Lingxi's biological father and mother, and after the etiquette and discipline, Chu Yan personally led Shen Lingxi to board the phoenix chariot and go to the Fengtian Temple to be sealed.

Shen Lingxi hadn't participated in such a grand ceremony under the attention of thousands of people for a long time.

She was wearing a crown of eighteen hairpins, and under the makeup, her already beautiful and dusty face was bright and beautiful.

I don't know if it's an illusion, after dressing up in the morning, Shen Lingxi looked at his eyebrows and eyes in the bronze mirror, and felt a sense of déjà vu.

It's like her in the previous life, and she in this life, there seems to be a strange connection in the dark.

Especially under this makeup, her innate noble and Tsinghua aura can no longer be hidden, and her facial features are gradually somewhat similar to the "saintess" in her previous life.

Not only Shen Lingxi has this feeling-

When she was riding, the phoenix chariot slowly stopped in front of the noon gate.

Her hand was lightly held by Chu Yan and she walked down from the phoenix.

Yun Chong, the first prince of Yun Kingdom, who pretended to be a small servant, hid in the team of Great Zhou officials, and when he saw Shen Lingxi wearing the crown dress of the crown concubine of the Great Zhou, he couldn't hide his surprise on his face.

"How can it be so similar......" he rubbed his eyes in disbelief, "It's so similar." ”

"Like what?" In front of him, a handsome man in a scarlet python robe, sitting in a wooden wheelchair, leaned back and asked in a low voice.

Yun Chong leaned down and said in a low voice: "Lord Huirui, this concubine looks a lot like my poor sister who died early. ”

The man he called Rui Wang Ye was the ninth son of the first emperor, Chu Xun.

Because he was born with a leg disease and was not good at walking, King Rui has always lived in a simple place and rarely appears in front of people.

Today's prince's wedding is the crown prince's canonization gift, and it is difficult for him to leave the house.

Yun Chong is pretending to be his personal servant this time, so that he can blend in with the officials.

King Rui sighed, "Your sister is really pitiful, it seems that my imperial nephew is really deeply in love with your sister, so he married such a woman who looks like her." ”

"Yes." Yun Chong smiled flatteringly, "That's why this time, I want you to come forward and introduce him in front of His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson, and I have a big gift here to congratulate him on his new marriage." ”

King Rui nodded, "Don't worry, you have found a divine doctor to treat my legs, such a great favor, I will definitely survive your favor." ”

Yun Chong smiled and said a few more polite words to him, and suddenly heard a big drum sounding mightily "knock, knock, knock".

Hundreds of officials followed Yu Linwei into Fengtianmen.

Yun Chong also personally pushed King Rui's wooden wheelchair and walked towards Fengtianmen.

Although the ceremony of canonizing the crown prince and the crown princess was grand, it was very complicated and lengthy.

The flags inside and outside the Fengtian Hall are displayed, solemn and solemn.

Shen Lingxi's hand was tightly held in the palm of Chu Yan from beginning to end, and under the guidance of the ceremonial officials, from Fengtianmen to Fengtian Palace, bowed to the emperor, bowed to the queen, bowed to the queen mother, and accepted hundreds of officials to bow down, and the dynasties congratulated and so on.

As Neizan Guan sang and harmonized, she and Chu Yan kept holding each other:

"Bow, worship."

"Kneel."

"Prostrate and flat."

"Bow, salute."

"Chu Yan, the nephew of the chief of the book, is the crown prince, and the Shen family is the crown princess."

"Conferring."

Reset ......

In the majestic hall, purple smoke is filled, and drums outside the hall are ringing.

This was a completely unfamiliar experience for Shen Lingxi.

In her previous life, she was in Yunguo, and she had always been alone, facing the worship of civil and military officials and the people.

It was the first time that someone stood beside her at such a moment, holding her hand firmly.

It made her feel a little less lonely and lonely in her previous life.

At the beginning of the ceremony, it was the rising sun in the east, until the canonization ceremony was completely over, the two of them received the people's congratulations on the city tower, and then entered the East Palace, and accepted the hundred officials to bow down again, and the sky was close to dusk.

If it weren't for Shen Lingxi's skills, he would have been accustomed to such a scene in his previous life.

Otherwise, just take the hairpin crown on your head, after tossing it all day, your neck is about to break.

Finally, when the night fell, the wedding was auspicious, and when they entered the cave room of the inner hall, Qiao Xing and the female officials served Shen Lingxi to take off the crown and change clothes.

Without the heavy shackles of clothes, Shen Lingxi's whole person finally loosened, and his eyelids were fighting with his tiredness.

"Crown Princess, there is also the cave room ceremony, you hold on a little longer." The female officer reminded in a low voice.

Shen Lingxi barely bothered to muster up at this time, "Well, okay." ”

Although it should be down, the head has already begun to peck at the rice like a chicken.

Chu Yan changed his clothes and walked into the inner hall, and saw his bride, who was already tired and staggered, looking crumbling.

A faint smile tugged at the corner of his lips and waved his hand at everyone, "Okay, you all stand down." ”

The female officials glanced at each other, but they didn't dare to disobey the prince's words, and they all withdrew.

Chu Yan walked up to Shen Lingxi, and his slender hand supported her chin at the right time.

Xu was freshly washed, and his slightly calloused fingertips exuded a coolness.

The unfamiliar touch made Shen Lingxi shudder, and finally opened his eyes.

Chu Yan was leaning down towards her, and his handsome and deep face was magnified in front of her eyes.

He changed into a crimson bedrobe, with wide sleeves and a narrow waist, his dark hair was loosely curled with a white hosta, and his slightly open neckline inadvertently revealed a clear and elegant collarbone.

"Tired?" He asked, looking down.

Shen Lingxi hurriedly looked sideways, sat up straight, and kept a safe distance from him, "Not tired, not tired, is there still a ritual that has not been completed?" ”

As she spoke, she saw a pair of water ladles tied with red thread in front of the dragon and phoenix candlesticks, and her eyes showed curiosity, "Why is there this in the room?" ”

It's no wonder that Shen Lingxi has never seen this kind of thing, it's really that what she has done for people is all white things, the wedding banquet can be avoided, and the cave room is absolutely not going, for fear of being taboo.

Shen Lingxi had only entered the Li family's cave room.

At that time, I was busy doing "business", and I didn't have the heart to observe these things.

Seeing this, Chu Yan walked to the pair of water ladles and poured the wine in the white jade pot into the scoops.

"This is the wine vessel used for the sake of wine. One is broken into two halves, and each holds wine in the middle, and on the night of the cave room, you and I each drink one. The gourd is divided into two, symbolizing that you and I are husband and wife, and the handle is connected by a line, which symbolizes the wedding to connect you and me into one, so it is divided into two first, and then combined into one, which is called a combination. ”

"The taste is bitter and the wine is also bitter, and drinking the bitter wine indicates that after marriage, you and I will share weal and woe. At the same time, it also symbolizes that the two of us are like this, one and tightly tied together. ”

Shen Lingxi was told by this "you, mine", what "husband and wife", what "two people", and what "unity", and his heart was pounding for no reason.

Seeing that Chu Yan personally handed the ladle filled with wine to her.

Shen Lingxi's eyes flickered, raised his eyes and smiled at him, and discussed with him in a good voice, "Now that there is no one around, not even a ghost, this kind of 'real' etiquette, we don't have to do this fake show anymore......"

The source of Heyu wine is Baidu, and some ceremonial costumes are in the Ming Dynasty.
