Chapter 165: A Sour Feeling
"We've prepared a mansion for you, let's move there when we get married."
Zhu Yuanzhang gossiped with him like an ordinary elder, talking about some arrangements after marriage.
Li Wei showed his loyalty, and he was also very generous, the horse mansion prepared for Li Wei this time was the same as the one given to Li Qi at the beginning, it was the specification of the first product, and the other treatment was also better.
In addition to these, he will also seal the horse Duwei, and he will pay 1,500 stones, which is higher than the one he was at the beginning.
In addition, there are 2,000 bills per year.
It can be said that marrying a princess is equivalent to falling in love with a rich woman, even if he doesn't do anything in the future, he can eat soft rice for a lifetime without worries.
However, he is a successful person with an annual income of tens of thousands, and it is impossible to eat soft rice, but this is always a gift from the emperor, and the meaning is different.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, and he was relieved in his heart, after spending such a big expense, he finally brought this stinky boy into the house, and he will not have to work for us in the future?
Li Wei really planned to give him a good job, but the purpose of doing a good job was a little different from what he thought, and the process was very similar, but there would be a slight difference in the result.
After Li Wei finished entering the table, the follow-up process was much faster, and the Ministry of Rites had already prepared it.
As soon as the auspicious day arrived, the little princess of Anqing happily went to Fengxian Hall to say goodbye to her ancestors, and then said goodbye to Zhu Yuanzhang, Queen Ma, Zhu Biao and others one by one.
Looking at her joyful appearance, Zhu Yuanzhang always felt a sour feeling in his heart.
Although getting married is a happy event, you should be a little sad when you say goodbye to your parents!
However, An Qingcai doesn't care much, the father and the queen mother who have a straight face all day long, how can they be as interesting as Li Wei?
Li Wei was also very busy this day, according to the etiquette system, he should first worship the ancestral hall to pay tribute to his ancestors, then worship his parents, and then go to the palace to pick up his relatives.
But his parents are in the afterlife, and the ancestors he can count can not be traced for at least 500 years, and he has nowhere to worship.
The official in charge of the Ministry of Rites was embarrassed for a while, and finally felt that Xue Xiang had a good relationship with him and was considered an elder, so he let Xue Xiang fill the position.
Xue Xiang ignored Li Wei's eyes and happily accepted the salute.
Although the etiquette process on his side has been simplified a lot due to the simple family relationship, it still makes him a little unbearable.
In later generations, ordinary people were still busy getting married, and this kind of royal wedding in ancient times was even more cumbersome.
I was busy at my own house for half a day, and I didn't go out until the afternoon.
Before leaving, Li Wei glanced at Xiaoqing in the crowd, and Xiaoqing only smiled softly.
"Xiaoqing, give me some time, I will give you an equally grand wedding in the future!" Li Wei said silently in his heart.
Li Wei left the house and waited in the room outside the noon gate.
Princess Anqing is not easy here, there is no way, there are too many little aunts, and they all have to worship, and it will not end until the afternoon.
Li Wei entered through the corner gate under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, and waited for Anqing to come out to unveil the curtain for her and get into the sedan chair.
Looking at the petite body wearing a phoenix crown and a wedding dress, Li Wei couldn't help but shake his head secretly, what a sin!
After the Anqing sedan chair, accompanied by the drum music honor guard, the greeting team left the palace, and Zhu Biao, the eldest brother, personally saw him off.
Then he took Anqing to the house to repeat the previous process, and then returned to his new home, the Horse Mansion.
The Horse Mansion is more than twice as large as the house he lives in, and there are many more people, in addition to him and An Qing, Xiaoqing Xiaoyue and others who will move over in the future, as well as the domestic servants and female officials who are matched by the royal family, some of them also have official bodies, but there are only eight or nine grades.
In addition to these, Zhu Yuanzhang also sent him a team of guards, not more than ten people, the leader of the team was Wu Yong's stupid big man, and there was another person he didn't expect, it turned out to be the cowardly bag of Tuo Yanchi, Li Wei was surprised to see him, and couldn't help worrying about his future safety.
After being captured and escorted back to Beijing, Zhu Yuanzhang did not kill him, and he arranged an idle position in the personal guard.
At the beginning, Li Wei left a deep impression on him in the battle of Nailu, and after settling in the personal guard, he inquired about Li Wei's deeds everywhere, and the more he inquired, the more he felt that this was a man of God, and he worshiped more and more, and later became acquainted with Wu Yong, and heard that he was going to choose a guard for Li Wei, so he asked for a demotion and transferred over.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it and agreed, because sometimes prisoners are more credible than cronies, although this is ironic.
After returning to the Horse Mansion, Li Wei and An Qing still had to perform a joint ceremony, that is, to drink a glass of wine, but it was not a simple drink and it was over, but also under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, they had to eat a bite of food and drink a sip of wine, and it was over and over again.
At the end of the day, it was the first meal the newlyweds ate, and they were not full.
By the time all the processes were completed, it was already dark.
After all the deacons and ceremonies had withdrawn, the room finally fell silent, Li Weichang breathed a sigh of relief, and sat quietly at the table, thinking about tomorrow's things, some things he couldn't wait.
An Qing sat on the bed and blinked with big eyes, looking at this man who had become her husband, feeling that this man today was very different from the past, Li Wei used to speak humorously and could tell her some interesting stories, but today he sat there with a cold face and was silent.
"Li Wei, it's not early, let's rest early."
An Qing said crisply, waking up Li Wei, who was thinking about things.
Li Wei turned his head, looked at her, showed a smile and said softly, "Let's go to sleep first." ”
When An Qing heard this, her little face was immediately a little unhappy, she had learned everything when she left the palace, and the wedding had not ended yet, or the next thing was the right thing.
Although she was a little shy, she still mustered up the courage to say, "I already know how to grow seeds!" ”
Li Wei was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then sweated profusely, how could this young man say such words of a tiger and a wolf!
"You're still young, let's talk about it when you're older." Li Wei said with some embarrassment.
"I'm not small! I've grown up! ”
Anqing frowned unhappily, stood up, crossed her small waist and raised her head, looking like a big lady.
Li Wei glanced at the two flower bones with buds on her chest, and couldn't help laughing.
After thinking about it, he opened his mouth and frightened: "You forgot what I told you about the crown princess, it's not good for your health so early!" ”
He really doesn't want to touch this little princess, with his current relationship with Zhu Yuanzhang, although Zhu Yuanzhang looks like a family who loves each other, but the knots in his heart can't be solved, although he was forced to become a colt, but he doesn't really want to have any skin to skin relationship with this little princess.
Of course, being too young is also one of the reasons.
However, the little princess was not frightened by him this time, and said coquettishly: "The queen mother said, it was all your lie!" ”
Li Wei rolled his eyes, although what he said was a bit exaggerated, it was not completely deceitful, but unfortunately these ancients didn't believe it.
"Obedient, go to sleep!"
Li Wei's face turned pale, and he took out the majesty of being a husband.
An Qing pouted, sat down angrily, kicked off his shoes, took off his coat, and lay down under Li Wei's obscene gaze.
Li Wei saw that she had finally quieted down, so he turned around and continued to plan tomorrow's actions in his mind.
However, Anqing didn't have much peace and life, so he shouted crisply: "I want to listen to the story!" ”
Li Wei: "......"
He is really in no mood to coax the child now, but Anqing is not an ordinary little girl, and he can't ignore it.
had no choice but to move a stool and sit down on the edge of the bed, An Qing immediately blinked excitedly with big eyes and looked at him expectantly.
Li Wei thought about it, Journey to the West is basically finished, the Three Kingdoms is not interesting, Dream of Red Mansions, he really hasn't watched it, and he hasn't watched the TV series.
Others, he likes it, I guess this kind of little girl won't like it either, and he can only tell some Western fairy tales.
"I'll tell you a story about Snow White."
Li Wei said softly, An Qing heard the story of the princess, and immediately became interested, and nodded again and again.
Li Wei modified and adapted what he knew, and slowly spoke it.
However, before he could say a few words, An Qing frowned and protested: "Don't speak ill of my mother!" ”
"Uh......"
Li Wei's voice paused, and after thinking about it, if this story is really involved, it is really like that.
Helpless, he could only change the story of a prince and a mermaid......
As the night deepened, Anqing slowly fell asleep, Li Wei stopped talking and covered her with a quilt.
When I came to the window and looked at the night outside, my eyes became deeper.
Zhu Yuanzhang forced him onto a road he hadn't thought of, this road can only move forward bravely, and there is no turning back!
……
The dawn of dawn illuminated the earth, and Li Wei lay on the table all night, waking up before dawn, and then got up and prepared to go out.
walked to the door and stopped, groaned for a while, returned to the bed, looked at Anqing, who was still asleep, and then stretched out his fingers to bite it, gently lifted the quilt, found a place, and squeezed out two drops of blood.
Cover her with the quilt again, and then Li Wei turned around and opened the door and went out.
At this time, although the sky was just dawning, there were already domestic servants in the courtyard sprinkling and sweeping.
The royal rules are very strict, and these domestic servants and slaves can't be as casual as Xiaoyue Xiaocui and them, and they all salute respectfully when they see him come out.
Li Wei walked quickly with an expressionless face, and these people raised their heads and continued to do their work.
When he walked to the door of the house and was about to go out, Wu Yong saw him with the guards and also stepped forward to meet him.
"Master Pony!"
"I've seen the pony!"
"I've seen the magic machine...... Horse Master! ”
“……”
Wu Yong, Dehuo Chi and several guards saluted one after another, and Li Wei waved his hand casually.
"Where are you going? Do you want us to follow? ”
Dehuo asked earnestly.
In fact, these guards still belong to the princess in name, but the princess is a family, and they have to do the work if they are asked.
Li Wei glanced at him, thought about it, and then bowed his head and said, "Okay, you can take someone out with me!" ”
