Chapter 191: The Big Wedding Affair Flower Candles in the Cave Room

The book continues from the above, and the last book said that after Chu Mofeng returned to Chang'an, he solved the matter of peace and disarmament for Li Yuan in the court, who knew that in the imperial study, under Li Yuan's repeated urging, Chu Mofeng told the matter between him and Dou Jingyan.

Li Yuan, who pretended to be angry, immediately ordered Chu Mofeng to accept his marriage and marry Dou Jingyan to Chu Mofeng. Then Chu Mofeng and Li Shimin returned to Yiningfang, purchased the empty houses on both sides of the mansion, and merged with the original Guogong Mansion.

As the will of the imperial court reached Niangzi Pass, after General Dou Jingyan handed over all affairs with Yang Lin, he quickly returned to Chang'an to prepare for the wedding, and then the rewards and seals of the imperial court were also issued.

On March 20, the eighth year of Wude, the youngest and most prestigious Guogong Chu Mofeng since the founding of the Tang Dynasty --- the fifth wedding, and for a time Chang'an City was full of people, and at this time, the carriage of the bride Dou Jingyan was slowly heading towards the Guogong Mansion located in Yiningfang.

Chu Mofeng, who was at the forefront of the greeting procession, was riding his own night jade lion at the moment, it seemed that because today was a festive day, the night jade lion under Chu Mofeng's crotch was also very excited.

The carriage full of red silk slowly came to the gate of the Guogong Mansion under the leadership of Chu Mofeng, and Chu Mofeng, who was the groom today, was dressed in a neat Liang Guan dress, reflecting the handsome face that looked extraordinarily beautiful, and many women present who came to congratulate couldn't help but be moved, and secretly envied Dou Jingyan in their hearts.

The greeting team just stopped, only to see a group of young and handsome women holding red silk in a section of 'Sons are handsome, the lady is virtuous, the door is Changji, and a hundred years are together. Seeing this, Chu Mofeng turned his head to Li Shimin, the accompanying greeting envoy, and asked, "What is this?"

Today's Qin King Li Shimin and Huai'an King Li Shentong are Chu Mofeng's greeting envoys, and they have worked hard to dress up, the two were originally military generals, and they have been fighting and killing for many years to develop a tall and majestic figure, and at this moment the two are also dressed in auspicious clothes, and the two of them are even more handsome and extraordinary.

Seeing Chu Mofeng's sudden question, Li Shimin said with a smile: "Big brother, this is called giving a car, mainly to please a good fortune, hurry up and send money." ”

Chu Mofeng nodded when he heard this, and stuffed the sealed happy money in his arms into the hands of these women one by one, while Li Shentong on the side whispered to Li Shimin: "What's the matter, none of these women I am looking for are ugly." ”

And Li Shimin was also surprised, if he said that he could find three or five young and handsome women, he could find them, and there were nearly thirty of them at the scene, so he couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Where did you recruit your kid?"

"I said His Royal Highness King Qin, I don't dare if you give me ten dares, these are all personally selected by me from each prefecture one by one, I heard that this kid is married, and all the mansions are trying their best to cooperate, how about it? Brother, I did a good job, right?" Hearing the words 'Pingkangfang', Li Shentong hurriedly opened his mouth to explain, and showed his merits by the way.

At this time, Chu Mofeng had already finished sending the happy money, turned over and dismounted and came to the carriage, only to hear the officiant sing: "The bride is down, step by step." Immediately several servants quickly brought five round stools of different heights and placed them in front of the carriage in turn.

Seeing this, Chu Mofeng smiled and stepped forward and knocked lightly on the carriage board, only to see that the red cloth curtain on the carriage was gently lifted by a slender jade hand, and Dou Jingyan, who was holding a fan and wearing a hairpin gown, walked out with a hunched waist, Chu Mofeng picked it up when he saw this, slowly put it on the first round stool, and then took Dou Jingyan's hand and walked down slowly.

At this time, a servant had already spread out a few big red bands on the ground, which were passed down from generation to generation along with the officiant's ancestral belt. The two slowly walked to the door of the mansion, and then a servant brought a bright red saddle and put it on the ground, and the officiant sang loudly: "Cross the saddle, be safe." This means that a good horse is not worthy of a second saddle, and a daughter does not marry a second husband.

After stepping into the saddle, the two slowly walked into the mansion, and in the renovated main hall, Chu Mofeng's mother, Mrs. Heba, was sitting precariously looking at the oncoming couple at this time, and couldn't help but feel emotional.

Since the death of Gao Xi, because of the deliberate suppression of Emperor Yang of Sui, the Gao family can only survive in the hometown of Beixian County, but fortunately, the sky has eyes, and the Gao family has produced Gao Wencheng, a genius, which makes the Gao family return to its former glory.

And Gao Hongde and Gao Biaoren, who were smiling in the room, didn't know that tears had already welled up in their eyes, although they had never cared too much about this young brother, but he had single-handedly helped the family up again.

Thinking of the current life of the Gao family, the two brothers are happy for him from the bottom of their hearts.

Chu Mofeng pulled Dou Jingyan and slowly walked to Mrs. Heba, saluted respectfully, and then the officiant sang with a smile on her eyebrows: "The boudoir is as red as Shunhua, and the rain falls on the people in the morning, and it has its own cloud clothes and five colors, and there is no need to cover it with a hundred fans." ”

After the officiant sang, Dou Jingyan slowly handed the fan in her hand to the servant on the side, and the fan instantly revealed her original delicate face, and everyone present was amazed, if you talk about Dou Jingyan's appearance, it is still slightly inferior to Shi Hanshuang and others, but on today's happy day, under the embroidered eyebrows, the originally somewhat heroic face is like a porcelain doll at the moment.

Then the officiant continued to sing: "The auspicious time has come, the little lady and the little Langjun bow down." Hearing this, the two hurriedly knelt down with a bow of equal hands.

In a string of 'one worship two surnames and harmony, and then worship the temple has a long, three worship couples with one heart, four worship the descendants of the full hall. In the midst of the singing harmony, the two bowed four times in succession and then straightened up.

The officiant continued to sing: "Feng Qi Wo Xuan." The servant hurriedly brought two copper basins filled with water for them to clean their hands.

Then the officiant sang again: "Together in the same prison." Then a servant brought a low table on which the food was placed, and placed it in front of them, and in a section of the table, 'Eating millet, drinking vessels, and smacking sauce.' After that, the officiant smiled and sang, "Together." ”

Then I saw Yang Zhaoyi walking over with a tray with a wine jug and a wine glass, and Gao Liangdi, who was the eldest sister, picked up the wine jug and slowly filled the two wine glasses, Chu Mofeng and Dou Jingyan immediately picked up the wine glasses and slowly drank the wine in the glass.

Later, Dou Jingyan, who was the bride, was brought back to the wedding room by Gao Liangdi and Yang Zhaoyi, and Chu Mofeng, who was the groom, had one of the biggest tasks at the moment: to entertain guests.

Due to the renovations of the Guogong Mansion, the area of the mansion has tripled in size, and for this wedding, Chu Mofeng specially renovated a place in the courtyard specifically for drinking and feasting.

At this moment, Chu Mofeng stood at the door of the mansion, accompanied by Li Shimin and Li Shentong, waiting for the guests from all parties to come to the door, among the guests who came to congratulate, the military generals did not need Chu Mofeng to greet them, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chi Jingde arranged for them, and there were also Shi Wanshou, Shi Danai and others during the period, which also saved Chu Mofeng a lot of heart.

As for the Wenchen, as a group of die-hard loyalists of the Qin Palace, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others also arrived early to greet the Wenchen who came for Chu Mofeng, while the two brothers Yan Liben, the treasurer of the Qin Wangfu, and Yan Lide, the Qin Wangfu Yifeng Yu, personally painted for today's wedding.

Standing at the door of his mansion, Chu Mofeng asked Li Shimin in a low voice: "How do I remember that when I married Feng'er and Ling'er before, there were not so many cumbersome ceremonies?

"There's no way, this time these ceremonies were ordered by my father to be added, and for this matter, those people in the Ministry of Rites haven't had a good rest for several days, so you kid should be content. Listening to Chu Mofeng's words, Li Shimin said angrily: "When I married Guanyin before, it was also such a set of rituals. ”

And Li Shentong on the side said with a smile: "So those of you who live in the capital for a long time are troubles, you look at me, Daoli and Xiaogong, how can there be so many troubles." ”

Who knew that Li Shimin pretended to be mysterious and said: "Don't be complacent, you kid, I heard that my father intends to marry the princess of the Western Regions next time he makes peace with the countries of the Western Regions, and he will send you there at that time, and you will know if you look at those ceremonies in the Western Regions." ”

When the three of them were chatting, they only heard the greeting envoy sing loudly: "There is a guest here, Chang'an Wencheng firm congratulates the wedding of the Duke of Qiguo, and specially presents a thousand gold, a box of jade jewelry, a set of glass cups in the Western Regions, ten horses, and 100 batches of silk." ”

When the audience outside the mansion heard the congratulatory gift of Wencheng Firm, they couldn't help but gasp, they all knew that Wencheng Firm's business in Chang'an City was all over the world, and they never thought that the wedding of a grandfather of the country would be so generous.

I saw Song Xin, dressed in auspicious clothes, walking up with a gift slip in his hand, and said to Chu Mofeng: "The villain wishes Grandpa Guo and his wife a hundred years of good together, good luck, and a mere courtesy is not a respect, and I hope that Grandpa Guo will not dislike it." ”

Looking at the whole carriage behind Song Xin, Li Shentong on the side hurriedly took the gift list, and Gao Hongyi happened to walk out at this time, and saw Song Xin hurriedly took his hand and led him in.

Looking at the gift list presented by Song Xin, Li Shentong couldn't help but smack his tongue and said: "Okay, this Wencheng firm is big enough, and it will take several lifetimes for these things to be exchanged for ordinary people's homes." ”

Who knew that Li Shimin on the side glanced at him and said: "You haven't seen that when this kid married Feng'er and Ling'er, the Wencheng firm was only called big, and he had to move out of almost a county's wealth." ”

Chu Mofeng was about to say something when he heard this, but the guest envoy suddenly shouted again: "There is a guest arriving, Zhangye Yanyulou congratulates the wedding of the Duke of Qiguo, and specially presents two war horses from the Western Regions, one Lingbao bow, one overlord bow, and one hundred thousand yuan." ”

As soon as he heard the words 'Zhangye Yanyulou', Chu Mofeng was stunned at first, thinking that someone was joking with him today, but when he looked closely, he saw three men and three women riding horses slowly towards the door of the mansion, Chu Mofeng turned to Li Shimin and said, "Hurry up and call Shuang'er and Ziyao, there are distinguished guests." After saying that, he jumped down the steps in three steps and two steps, and one of them came to the six people in a flash, knelt down respectfully and said, "The master is above, please accept the apprentice's worship." ”

I saw one of the women covered in black gauze whispering: "Stinky boy, I haven't seen you for so many years and you are going to marry the fifth lady, you have really grown up." ”

When Chu Mofeng heard this, he hurriedly got up and helped a few people off the horse, and said with a smile: "Sister Rakshasa is still so fond of laughing, hurry up and enter the house, my mother is also inside." At this time, Shi Hanshuang and Mo Ziyao had already come to the gate of the mansion, and when they saw the six people, they hurriedly ran up, and immediately led the six people to the mansion.

Then Chu Mofeng returned to the door and stood still, while Li Shimin looked at him with a puzzled look on his face and said, "Who are these people?"

"My tutor, they taught me all my kung fu. Seeing this, Chu Mofeng avoided the serious, and said lightly, and then stopped speaking.

Later, some sect families on the rivers and lakes also came with congratulatory gifts, Chu Mofeng hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and at this time, the guest envoy suddenly sang: "There is a guest arriving, Master Shaolin Tanzong, Master Emei Qinglian and his disciples congratulate." ”

As soon as the people in the rivers and lakes present heard the arrival of the two major sects of Shaolin and Emei, they hurriedly turned around to greet them together, only to see Tanzong and Qinglian leading their disciples to come slowly, Chu Mofeng hurriedly stepped forward to salute when he saw this, and then Shi Hanshuang came out to greet him in person, leading a group of people from the rivers and lakes into the mansion.

Just after everyone entered the mansion, the welcoming envoy sang again: "There are guests arriving, Pingkangfang Ma Weiping celebrates the wedding of Qi Guogong, and specially presents 100 maids and servants, and five carts of various ingredients in the house." ”

I saw Ma San, or it should be called Ma Weiping, changed the image of the old hanger, walked in front of Chu Mofeng in a proper manner, first saluted Chu Mofeng, and then saluted Li Shimin and Li Shentong, and then said with a smile: "Congratulations to Grandpa Guo, congratulations to Grandpa Guo, the villain learned of Grandpa Guo's wedding today, and came to ask for a cup of wine, and I hope that Grandpa Guo will not dislike it with a small gift." ”

Seeing this, Chu Mofeng couldn't help but smile and said: "I said that the hemp shopkeeper, I still like the way you usually look, today you are dressed like this, I am still a little uncomfortable, thank you for me, master, hurry up and invite inside." ”

Seeing this, Ma San made a gesture to Chu Mofeng and the three of them, and walked in without anyone saying hello, looking at Ma San's back, Li Shimin, who was Jing Zhaoyin, was a clear man about the origin of this person, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "I said that you kid knows everyone, this Ma San is from Pingkangfang, I heard that the south of Chang'an was occupied a few days ago." ”

"I let him do it, because the underground forces in the south are supported by your eldest brother, and I don't like it. Chu Mofeng whispered a few words when he heard this, and then turned around and continued to greet the guests.

At this time, the guest envoy suddenly sang in a worried voice: "There is a guest arriving, Wang De and the prince have arrived." Hearing Wang De's arrival, Chu Mofeng and the three of them breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the old man would not send someone, but they didn't expect to really send Wang De.

I saw Wang De personally pulling a carriage to come, followed by dozens of servants, and when Wang De walked to the front of the mansion, he suddenly shouted: "Your Majesty the Tang Dynasty has arrived, and everyone knelt down to greet him." ”

As Wang De shouted 'Your Majesty of the Tang Dynasty', Chu Mofeng and the others hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, while everyone present hurriedly knelt down regardless of inside and outside the house.

I saw Wang De lift the curtain of the car, and sure enough, it was Li Yuan himself, and everyone shouted in unison when they saw this: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." Immediately, Li Yuan motioned for everyone to get up, and Chu Mofeng said in surprise: "Your Majesty, why are you here in person?"

"It's not you kid, I heard that you got married today, and I stopped this afternoon, and everyone who has a relationship with you in the court is in your house, I wanted to take this opportunity to go out of the palace to find some delicious food, but I knew that half of the restaurant masters in Chang'an City were hired by you, so I had to look for some food here. Hearing this, Li Yuan glanced at Chu Mofeng, expressing his dissatisfaction in his heart angrily.

Seeing this, Chu Mofeng hurriedly led Li Yuan towards the mansion, and after Li Yuan entered the mansion, the gate of the Guogong Mansion slowly closed, and all the joy and hustle and bustle remained in the mansion, and there was no longer anything to do with the outside world.

The banquet had already been set up in the Guogong Mansion at this moment, and Li Yuan was welcomed into the main hall as today's honored guest, accompanied by Mrs. Heba and the elders of the Dou family with Dou Zhaoxian as the main body, while the rest of the people were seated in order according to their rank, status, etc., and with a long 'opening ceremony' from the officiant, the sumptuous dishes were served in turn like flowing water.

At this time, Chu Mofeng, accompanied by Li Shimin and Li Shentong, began the toasting work from table to table, while Mo Ziyao and others, who were the duchesses, accompanied the daughters of those royal relatives and relatives, as for Shi Hanshuang, she had already turned into a little sister of Emei and got to the table of Qinglian Shitai and Rakshasa.

Looking at the female apprentice who she hadn't seen for many years, Mrs. Qinglian said with tears in her eyes: "Silly child, you have a child here, it seems that you are really old as a teacher." ”

Seeing that Master Qinglian said this, Shi Hanshuang's eyes were also a little red, who knew that Chu Ninghan, who was beside him, suddenly said to Master Qinglian in a milky voice: "Grandmother Qinglian, Ning Han heard from her mother, you have all kinds of swords there, right?"

Master Qinglian nodded when she heard this, and said with a smile: "What? Xiao Ninghan wants a sword of his own?"

I saw Chu Ninghan nodding his head like a chicken pecking rice, and he couldn't stop saying, "I want to want it, but how can I have my own sword?"

"Now I have to ask your mother if she is willing to send you to your grandmother to learn art?" Master Qinglian looked at Chu Ninghan carefully when she heard this, after all, learning art is not something that can be achieved overnight, and if you have a weak foundation, you will not be able to practice it, unless you can have an adventure against the sky.

Shi Hanshuang's face changed slightly when he heard this, and then he said with a smile: "Master, in fact, Ning Han is this child, the disciple doesn't want her to follow the old path of the disciple." ”

Who knew that as soon as Shi Hanshuang's voice fell, a voice suddenly came to mind on the side and said: "At the moment of foreign enemies, my children in the Central Plains should study hard to protect their families and defend the country, my father taught us this since childhood, why do my children now want to be a person who does not ask about the world?"

As soon as Shi Hanshuang heard it, he knew that the person who was stirring up the situation was coming, and saw Chu Mofeng walking to this table with a wine glass, and said to everyone: "All of you here are my elders, I respect you for this cup, if my aunt is willing to bring Ning Han to Emei, I will not be ambiguous, boy." After saying that, he drank all the wine in his glass and turned to the next table.

After Chu Mofeng left, Master Qinglian said with a smile: "This child has always been like a child, but as for whether Ning Han wants to go up the mountain to learn art, you and your husband have decided to do it, and it is not good to be too demanding as a teacher." ”

Shi Hanshuang nodded when he saw this, and then accompanied everyone to eat and drink, and just when everyone was eating heartily, Dou Jingyan, who was in the new house, was sitting in the house boredly waiting for Chu Mofeng's arrival, accompanied by her personal maid Qianqian.

Shaking the golden flower crown on the top of her head, Dou Jingyan, who had been busy since the beginning of Yin, couldn't help but feel a little tired, and the maid Qianqian on the side hurriedly stepped forward to pinch Dou Jingyan's shoulders when she saw this, because Dou Jingyan had been killing on the battlefield for many years, she was not used to this kind of being served for a while, and she couldn't help but feel a little stiff, so she had no choice but to whisper: "Qianqian, don't pinch it, I can still hold it." ”

Qianqian, who was behind her, hurriedly let go of her hand when she heard this, bowed to Dou Jingyan and said, "Madame, if you need anything, just tell Qianqian." ”

I saw Dou Jingyan tilt her head and think for a while and said, "Otherwise, you can help me go and see if the banquet in the front yard is over?"

Qianqian nodded when she heard this, tiptoed to the door, slowly opened the door and walked out, walking along the corridor towards the front yard.

After entering the house and closing the door, Qianqian adjusted her breathing evenly, and then ran to Dou Jingyan and whispered: "Madam, the front yard is estimated to be over for a while and a half, if you feel hungry, the slave will bring you some food?"

I saw Dou Jingyan stretch out her hand and rubbed her somewhat shriveled belly, and whispered: "Okay, you go and see if there is anything delicious, it's best to find a pot of wine." ”

Qianqian nodded when she heard this, and then quietly went out of the new house, all the way to the back kitchen with small steps, only to see a busy scene in the back kitchen, a guy saw a person wearing the clothes of a maid of the Guogong Mansion standing at the door, thinking that he was coming to urge the food, and hurriedly asked: "What is the matter with the girl coming?"

"I'm tired of taking a tray and putting some wine and food in it, and I'm going to take it away. Seeing someone asking, Qianqian hurriedly pretended to be calm and said, "The fatigue is a little faster, and the front yard is urgent." ”

Seeing this, the man hurriedly took a tray, put a pot of wine, a plate of sauce and meat, and a small dish, and then handed it to Qianqian and said, "The girl will take these first, and the rest of the dishes will be served later." ”

Seeing this, Qianqian nodded, then turned around and left with the tray, trotting all the way back to the new house, Dou Jingyan saw that there was wine and meat, and immediately got up and sat on the chair, eating and drinking with a mouthful of wine and meat.

Qianqian on the side couldn't help but snicker when she saw this, her housewife seemed to be different from the young ladies of other big families, listening to her sisters who worked in other big families, those young ladies could eat slowly and leisurely for an hour, and her own housewife, seeing that she had swept away the contents of the tray when she saw that she had swept away the contents of the tray when she saw that she had divided five by two, which made Qianqian a little surprised, and she didn't know how long she thought it had been since she had eaten.

Seeing Qianqian looking at herself, Dou Jingyan blushed and whispered: "I got up at the beginning of Yin today, and I haven't eaten anything yet, so I'm a little hungry, but tell me quickly, who is here today?"

I saw Qianqian counting with her fingers: "What Emei, Shaolin, Zhangye, Wencheng firm, Yanyulou, oh yes, I heard outsiders say that it seems that His Majesty is also here, because this noon dynasty has stopped." Speaking of this, Qianqian scratched her head and asked, "Madam, what is the Wu Dynasty?"

"The noon dynasty is when the ministers discuss matters with His Majesty the Emperor at noon. Hearing that even His Majesty the Emperor was here today, Dou Jingyan was overjoyed in her heart, and said happily at the moment: "I originally thought that Your Majesty would marry you, but I never thought that Your Majesty really came in person, it seems that Your Majesty still values him very much." ”

After listening to the words of the mistress, Qianqian was not easy to interject, and at this moment, there was a slight knock on the door......

As the saying goes, the spring supper on the night of the candle night in the cave room is worth a thousand gold, and look at the two of them for the second spring breeze, and then look at the Turks attacking again, I want to know what will happen next, and listen to the next decomposition......
