Chapter 86 The Big Wedding
"Seeing that the night had been fine, Ran Xiang Tho stood up and said to the generals on the left and right: 'Although there was nothing wrong last night, you can't let your guard down during the day. General Mu followed me to the palace to meet the driver and play the military situation at night. The rest of the generals can take shifts to rest. At the beginning of the day, we are still here to plan for tonight's defense. ’
"The generals shouted in unison: 'Order!'
"Ran Shang Tho led me and Ran Sheng Mu to the ant mound hill.
Before he reached the gate of the post, a palace attendant hurriedly ran to him.
"When the chamberlain saw us, he saluted and said, 'Your Majesty asks your son-in-law and Lord Shoufu to come to the palace to attend the ceremony as soon as possible. ’
"I looked left and right, and there was no one else in our group except Lord Shoufu and General Mu. I thought to myself, who is this son-in-law talking about? As for the word ceremony, I didn't care at all.
"Ran Xiang tilted his head and frowned and asked, 'What is the ceremony today, why didn't I know anything beforehand!'
"The chamberlain said, 'This was ordered by His Majesty this morning. ’
"Ran Xiang muttered to himself: "As usual, His Majesty will convene his ministers to discuss all the major ceremonies and festivals, so why make his own decisions this time. ’
"Then he looked at the chamberlain and asked, 'Tell me, what kind of celebration is it?'
The chamberlain replied, 'It's the princess's wedding.' ’
"Ran Shang Tho and Ran Shang Mu exclaimed in unison: 'The princess's wedding?!'
"I was so startled that I opened my mouth and cried out, 'Ah!'
"I thought to myself, last night Yuhua said that she was going to marry me today, but she just said that I and her quietly worshiped in the house. According to Yuhua's character, she would never ask her mother to hold a wedding ceremony for her.
"But after thinking about it, there will not be only such a princess as Yuhua in this Drought Clan, maybe it will be the wedding of other princesses.
"When I think of this, I laugh at myself for being amorous.
"Out of the barracks, to the market, the street and two rows are hung with colorful flags and ribbons, and the people of the drought are all with happy smiles on their faces, and they are talking about the princess's wedding.
"The whole Tianyi City is full of festive atmosphere.
"When I came to the palace, from the main gate to the inside, I entered the courtyard several times, and the inside and outside were decorated in festive red, and there were lights everywhere. Strangely, there are few people here, and it seems deserted.
In the main hall, Ran Xiangtu stood and chatted with several ministers, but there was no monarch on the main seat.
"Seeing us enter, Ran Xiangtu saluted Lord Shoufu and General Mou, turned to me and bowed to me and said, 'Congratulations to my son-in-law, Jun Qinse!'
"I was at a loss for a moment, stunned on the spot, and then asked Ran Sheng Tu softly: 'General Tu, what the hell is going on?'
When she heard this, she burst out laughing.
"I'm even more confused.
"Ran Xiangtu looked at me blankly, and said with a smile: 'When I entered the palace last night, I heard the conversation between you and the princess. The princess wants to marry you right away, why are you still hesitating. Later, I heard from the princess that she had prepared her own red candles, and that she was going to secretly visit the church with you in the side room early this morning. As soon as I heard it, this is worth it, how can I get married so hastily as a princess of the Drought Clan.
"'When His Majesty woke up in the evening, I told His Majesty about it, and when His Majesty heard it, he was also astonished, and said that if I hadn't heard it, you would have been married secretly, and you would have been too wronged princess.
"Then His Majesty immediately summoned Sima Ji, the superintendent of internal affairs, and instructed her to prepare for the wedding ceremony overnight.
"'I also ordered someone to clean up the West Garden overnight as the temporary residence of the son-in-law, and the big wedding ceremony will be held there in a while.
"'Now the officials, merchants, hunters, and others in Tianyi City have all rushed to Xiyuan, waiting to congratulate the princess and the princess. ’
"I said, 'No wonder I felt deserted when I first came in, it turned out that everyone had gone to the West Garden. Where is the West Garden?'
"Ran Xiangtu said: 'The West Garden is nearby, go out of the gate of the palace, and go two miles to the west. ’
"After hearing this, he smiled and said to me, 'It seems that Your Majesty is very kind to you and the princess. The West Garden is His Majesty's favorite among all the gardens in Eighty-One Mountain, and she usually does not worry about the plants and trees in the garden being taken care of by the gardener, and she personally maintains them. Today, I took it out to make a mansion for you and the princess, which shows Your Majesty's deep affection for you and the two. ’
"It was only at this time that I realized that this ceremony was for me and Yuhua, and I couldn't help but be overjoyed, but it felt like it was real and illusory, as if in a dream.
"At this time, I was anxious to see Yuhua, and said, 'I'll go see the princess.' Then he will go to the side room.
"Ran Xiangtu grabbed me and said, 'Son-in-law, today is a big day, and you can't meet the princess until you visit the church. What's more, the monarch is now grooming the princess inside. It is not convenient for you to go in. ’
After speaking, he shouted to the side: 'Come on, first accompany your son-in-law to change clothes.' ’
"A man who looked like an attendant stepped forward, stooped down and pointed to the back of the main hall, and said, 'Please go to the apse to change your clothes. ’
"I followed the chamberlain behind the screen, out of the back door of the main hall, and came to the back and entered the courtyard, and entered the west wing.
"The wedding dress is already in the room. After the attendants had washed me, they changed into their robes and went out of the apse to the main hall.
"Everyone in the hall praised me in unison for being a talent, and I thanked them one by one.
At this time, the monarch mother walked out of the side room.
"As soon as I bowed with the people, the Queen came up to me and said, 'Today is a day of great joy for you and Di'er, and it is also a time for my people to celebrate, and I feel great joy in my heart, and I feel happiness that I have never felt before, and I want to bless you and thank you even more. You are the great benefactor of our Drought Fish, and you have sent back my daughter, and you have also returned the only princess and future mother of the Drought Fish. Today, I trust you to be able to hand over my daughter to her beloved person as a mother, and I hope you can always be kind to her, and I am 100% confident that you will always be good to her. ’
"I said, 'Thank you for your trust in me, I will definitely treat Yuhua well and take care of her for the rest of my life. ’
The Mother nodded, and walked over to the main seat, but did not take her seat.
"She turned her head to look at Ran Xiangdi, and Ran Xiangtu shouted, 'Send your family!'
The two guards outside the main hall immediately followed the big red carpet in the hall and rolled the red carpet all the way to the palace gate.
At the same time, two attendants dressed in red helped Yuhua out of the side room.
Yuhua was wearing a red auspicious suit embroidered with a dragon and phoenix, covered with a xia veil, and a colorful cloud head brocade shoes. The head is crowned with a phoenix, covered with a big red and gold-rimmed hijab. Walk slowly to the center of the main hall.
"Jun's mother took two steps forward, took Yuhua's hand, and handed it to me.
The two attendants walked out of the door and led the way, and I took Yuhua's hand and was about to follow out.
At this time, Yuhua paused, suddenly turned his head, knelt on the ground and said, "Mother, thank you for fulfilling us. ’
With that, he stood up, took my hand, and walked out the door.
I peeked at my mother, and she wept with joy, but she didn't cry. ”
