Chapter 537: Tanabata, Wedding Period
On that day, red makeup could be seen everywhere inside and outside the capital, stretching for ten miles.
Because women from all over the capital wore red clothes to celebrate the wedding of their revered emperor.
The men in the capital were not jealous of Liang Xiao's wedding, after all, it was normal for the high-ranking officials and nobles of the Great Zhou Dynasty to have three wives and four concubines, and Liang Xiao was just marrying five princesses with the gift of marrying his wife after marrying the empress.
Previously, the empress announced to the world that Liang Xiao became the emperor for the sake of the country, and then he could marry a wife and take a concubine normally, or he could join the concubines.
It's just that the ministers still insist that the empress is the wife, but Zhuge Hui and other elders also know that in Liang Xiao's heart, they are all wives, and there is no such thing as a concubine.
In the eyes of the people, being able to marry such a character is the lifelong luck of the five princesses.
Today is the Qixi Festival, and now it is in time for Liang Xiao's wedding, and the people naturally celebrate with all their hearts.
With the abolition of the Ding tax alone, Liang Xiao has greatly reduced the burden on tens of millions of families across the country.
People don't know exactly what kind of population growth this policy will bring to Da Zhou in the future, but now they feel the benefits firsthand, and without exception, they are grateful.
Xigong Villa, this time Duan Yunyi, as the elder sister, personally dressed up the imperial sister Duan Yunsleeve, and her eyes were full of emotion and joy.
Finally, I am worthy of the trust of my father and mother!
Xiahou Tsing Yi and Diana's grooming was taken care of by the sisters, with Jiang Fuxue assisting by the side.
Later, Duan Yunyi began to dress up for his own sister.
This Nizi is always so humble, considers others everywhere, sets a good example for her sisters, and even her own marriage is fulfilled by her......
Duan Yunyi looked at her sister in the mirror with an expectant face, her eyes were gentle, and she couldn't help pinching her face that could be broken while she didn't apply powder on her face.
"When he sees you dressed like this, won't he be fascinated?"
The girl in the mirror just pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes rolling, and occasionally she couldn't help but peek at herself in a glass.
On the first night, she just dressed up in a hurry, wore a red dress, and made a ceremony with Liang Xiao as Duke Zhou.
This time, she can finally marry her lover like other brides, in a dignified and generous manner!
"Little Nuanbao, your mother is so beautiful~" Jiang Fuxue on the side couldn't help cheering.
"Mother's Drift Brewing ~ Drifting Brewing ~"
Xiao Nuanbao, who was held by Jiang Fuxue, couldn't help but dance with her hands, her voice was milky, and she learned to praise her "sister-in-law" and make everyone laugh.
On this day, the streets and alleys are full of joyful voices.
Countless soldiers and civilians stood at the gate of King Wu's Mansion, waiting happily.
These days, the candy distributed by the Wuwang Mansion and the promised charity have made the people of the city happy and convinced.
Because Liang Xiao married five brides at one time, the wedding was grand, and the sound of celebration on the scene lasted for a long time.
"The emperor welcomes you!"
This time, the general Lei Hong, as a concubine, rarely wore a Sven dress, and his voice was like a bell.
With his shout, the door of the Martial King's Mansion opened.
The much-anticipated groom, Liang Xiao, accompanied by Mu Lingxiao and Zhuge Cheng, rode on the white dragon shadow and went to the palace first.
At the gate of the palace, hundreds of officials have been waiting here for a long time, some people are happy and some are worried.
Naturally, the happy ones are the courtiers who support the imperial power, and the ones who are worried are the ministers of the family such as Ram Yun and Duanmu Jie.
The one who hates Liang Xiao the most is the Ram Te, and now he is just a fourth-grade false title, but he can only bear it.
Today, on the road, they have seen the horrors of the people's hearts.
The people of the capital, everyone is fanatical, bless Liang Xiao.
This is an unprecedented event.
They know very well that their three major families have been crushed by Liang Xiao in all directions in the capital, including public opinion.
Zhuge Hui and Mu Dingguo are waiting in their respective mansions because they are in-laws, and this time it was Yang Ling, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, who led the hundred officials to greet Liang Xiao at the gate of the palace, and there were also Dongye Hongji, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, and Zhuge Qi, the servant of the Ministry of Households, to assist the old minister.
"The Emperor has arrived! Welcome—bride—"
Lin Duan at the gate of the palace shouted loudly, and the palace gate was wide open.
Liang Xiao's convoy finally arrived at the gate of the palace.
After Yang Ling finished reading the congratulatory speech, the palace door was opened.
Three brides with covered heads came out after a long time.
Duan Yunyi led Duan Yun's sleeves, Xiahou Liuyi led Xiahou Qingyi, and Jiang Fuxue led Diana and came to Liang Xiao.
"That person, is it a Da Chu woman??"
The sharp-eyed Duanmujie saw Li Xinwen accompanying him in the rear, his expression changed and he was shocked.
He had never seen Li Xinwen's face, but there was a cinnabar mole on his eyebrows, which made him reminisce.
But Duanmu Festival was soon interrupted by the lively atmosphere of the scene, and was forced to congratulate, watching Liang Xiao pick up the three wedding cars one by one.
Because Duan Yunyi is also Liang Xiao's wife, the king of a country, and the bride's sister, her identity is too special, and there has never been such a precedent since ancient times, in order to avoid chaos, it is inconvenient to go to Wuwang's Mansion today, so she can only watch Liang Xiao leave with Duan Yunsleeve first, with tears in her beautiful eyes.
After leaving the palace, Liang Xiao's convoy went to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion again.
Mu Ping and his wife, who were guarding the door, had long been looking forward to it.
The second elder has calmed down, but his eyes are still a little red.
In addition to the joy, they are still a little worried that their daughter will "use too much force" one day and can't help but take her grandmother's route.
It wasn't until Liang Xiao's convoy arrived that the second elder finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him riding the White Dragon Shadow Instrument Yu Xuanang.
Oh, his governing talent and poetry are so remarkable that he almost forgot that this son-in-law is invincible in the world......
After Liang Xiao saluted Mu Dingguo and Mu Ping in public, his sister-in-law Ah Qi held the bride's hand, and it was the family who officially entrusted him with their favorite "Xiaoxue" and set off with him.
Liang Xiao went to the Prime Minister's Mansion again.
At this time, Zhuge Hui was like a spring breeze, watching Liang Xiao get off the horse and walk, stroking his beard and smiling, as if he was dozens of years younger.
The disaster of moving the capital and the death of Liang Xun have always been a knot in his heart.
Now, the granddaughter is in love with him, and the two families are also perfect.
"Grandpa, grandma."
Knowing that Liang Xiao called softly, Zhuge Hui and his wife Huang nodded with a smile and patted him lightly on the shoulder, looking relieved.
Changed his tune.
Looking at Mu Dingguo smiling in the carriage behind, the old prime minister couldn't help but blush.
Like him, he was drunk by his beloved wife back then, dragged into the cave room, thinking that the raw rice had been cooked and cooked, and only found out that the brides were all yellow flower girls on the night of the candles in the cave room......
For the marriage of Liang Xiao and Duan Yunyi, he tried unscrupulously to persuade him before, and even blew up his past to Duan Yunyi.
Prior to this, except for himself and his wife Huang, no third person knew this secret: Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng, who had no last resort, was actually eaten by his later wife, what is the difference between him and the Marquis of Dingguo in this regard.
Fortunately, the old boy in the carriage didn't know his black history, otherwise where would his old face go......
What's even more unexpected is that now his granddaughter and his granddaughter are married to Liang Xiao......
