Chapter 167: On the eve of the wedding
A bright red wedding dress is draped over the body, and gilt jewelry adorns the phoenix crown.
Xiao Cong sat in front of the mirror, and Lao Jingdi sat behind her, after many years of vicissitudes, he was no longer as radiant as he once was, but in three or four years, he was dragged from a middle-aged man to his twilight years.
Emperor Jing said: "Lady Cong, when the widow sees you getting married, he will think of it, thinking that the widow married her to Tu Shansong's kid, she didn't even wear a wedding dress properly, and now the two of them are getting together less and leaving more, you say, did the widow really do something wrong?" ”
In the past few days, whenever Emperor Jing wanted to visit his daughter, he was blocked by Yaming and King Yi, and he had no choice but to come to see Xiao Cong - a close friend of the boudoir who was the same age as his daughter and had been with him for many years, there was always a more or less curling shadow in her.
Xiao Cong put on earrings, and she knew in her heart that King Yi's family did not let Emperor Jing and Yuan Yuan see each other because Yuan Xuan got a divine power from nowhere, and this matter came strangely, if it wasn't for Liu Zhang letting down his vigilance against her, she wouldn't have been able to know.
Xiao Cong has had no father since she was a child, so at the wedding banquet she finally waited, she specially invited Emperor Jing to witness her marriage, and Emperor Jing readily agreed.
She was silent for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I think you are right. I have followed the princess for many years and have never seen her so happy. Although the colt and the princess did not spend much time together, all I knew was that as long as the colt was around, the princess could sleep peacefully. ”
When Emperor Jing heard this, his eyes flashed with hope: "Is that really the case?" The widow was also worried that the boy had no intention of curling, after all, he was stubborn and unruly, and it was common for him to be scolded and bullied. ”
Xiao Cong smiled and said a few words of relief.
I could only hear the commotion outside, and the girls were about to go out to see, Lu Xinyi opened the curtain and walked in generously, holding a large flower basket in his hand, which was full of red flowers.
Lu Xinyi said happily as he walked in:
"I didn't know that you were his bride now, so good, Liuzhang is a person worthy of trust......"
Before she finished speaking, she saw Emperor Jing sitting on the side, she put down the flower basket and stepped forward to help Emperor Jing: "Father, why are you here!" ”
After speaking, she glanced at Xiao Cong, and said angrily: "You have this idle time, you don't go to see your own daughter, but you are here to disturb other people's brides!" ”
Emperor Jing was about to say something, but Xiao Cong preemptively said, "Princess." You want to come and see the scene when you got married, you had this regret at the beginning, and today, you want to make up for this regret. ”
When Lu Xinyi heard this, his face turned red, and Emperor Jing also said: "Hello, I didn't give you such a decent wedding at the beginning, after all, my father couldn't stand you......"
Lu Xinyi hurriedly said: "Where did my father say, my father chose a good person in the world for me, and it was enough." These forms are not important, there is a lover who eventually becomes a family, it is the most rare, when the father can put aside the prejudice of the door, and strive to overcome public opinion, promote me and Song, my daughter is already grateful.
Not to mention ......"
Speaking of this, she turned her head to look at Xiao Cong, lowered her head, and her face turned red: "What's more, we also made up for the etiquette later." Although there is no testimony from everyone, in the heart of my daughter, there are no regrets. In the face of great calamity, how dare you ask for anything else if you can have such a corner of peace and happiness? ”
Hearing that the two of them made up the etiquette, Xiao Cong couldn't help but be surprised and delighted: "Princess, donkey him, is he safe?" ”
Xin Yi nodded: "I came to Huanchu Mountain this time, and he sent me here." It's just that he went elsewhere on the way, so he changed Zijing to escort me over. ”
Seeing that the two of them were puzzled, Xin Yi said again: "Zijing is, it is Yu Jingmo, the third son of the Yiwang family. After the war, he changed his name and surname, and worked as an errand boy in the Guogong Mansion of the Moon Kingdom. ”
Hearing this, Emperor Jing couldn't help but feel sad in his heart: "That's a good boy, how is he now, why didn't you see him come in?" ”
Lu Xinyi's face was sad, and Xiao Cong said: "Back to the king, the prince of Jingmo, he was unfortunately killed on the way to escort the princess up the mountain. ”
Hearing this, Emperor Jing couldn't help but take two steps back, although he had been used to hearing about the death of his cronies over the years, but the sudden pain still caught him off guard, he was silent for a long time, patted Lu Xinyi's shoulder, and said:
"That boy is good, make a good grave for him. He knows you and always defends you, but in the end he didn't achieve a good relationship, and he is also a confidant. ”
Lu Xinyi nodded, pretending to be strong, raised his head, picked up the pot of red plums, held it with both hands, and said with a smile:
"Well, the Si people are gone, and we don't have to talk about these unhappy things! Today my best sister, and my most beloved brother Wang married, I now have nothing, there is nothing to give to the gift, only this pot of red plum, I used spiritual power yesterday to urge, now to the two of you, I wish you a long time, forever together! ”
With that, she offered the red plum. Xiao Cong had tears in his eyes, and was about to kneel to accept it, but she pulled him up with one hand.
"The country is dead, there is no princess here, you and Liuzhang and the brothers protect me and my father, we owe you a lot of kindness!"
The two exchanged a few more words, Xiao Cong secretly felt that the wall had ears, she pulled Xin Yi and said, "Tomorrow, the slave and maid will be the courtier." I am afraid that I will not be able to serve the princess as before, so I have a few thoughtful words that I want to tell the princess alone. Princess, the scenery around Chushan Mountain is extremely beautiful, I wonder if you can enjoy it? ”
Xin Yi glanced at Emperor Jing, Emperor Jing smiled and bowed, and the two immediately went out hand in arm.
Sitting quietly on the top of the mountain, the scenery in front of you is vast and vast. Mountains loom in the distance among the white clouds, shrouded in a mysterious halo. The forest below the mountain is covered in silver frost and seems to be the most peaceful existence of all things in the world. The breeze blows, carrying the faint fragrance of pine trees, surrounding the ears, as if to bring people into a state of comprehension of life.
From time to time, the cry of a falcon can be heard in the distance, soaring into the sky, crisscrossing and shutting horizontally, pointing out the country. At this moment, the sun is shining, the morning glow is full of sky, and the sun shines through the clouds, illuminating the grass in a corner of the meadow on the top of the mountain, making people feel as if they have entered a fairyland.
Lu Xinyi and Xiao Cong sat side by side on the top of the mountain, far away from the military tent, where the view was vast, and only the sound of the wind blowing in their ears was the only way to hear it.
Xiao Cong took Xin Yi's hand and took the lead in opening his mouth:
"Princess ......"
"From now on, you and I will be called sisters, just call me Xinyi! The country is no longer a country, where is there a princess! ”
Xiao Cong still wanted to shirk it, but seeing her insistence, he also smiled and nodded.
