Chapter 689: Final Preparations Before Marriage
"Apple, there are many people in this world who are stronger than you, but there are more people who are not as good as you, and we don't think you are at a bad level. The things in the Pen & Fun www.biquge.info are affected by many factors, such as the fact that I was only 10th in the state race, so you don't have to worry too much. Ding Kui persuaded Lu Ying.
"Obviously talking about you, why did you pull it on my head again?" Lu Ying originally meant to say that Ding Kui's achievements had limitations.
"It's been a long time since I've checked your practice, come, let's go to the martial arts arena, senior brother, and see what you've learned in state affairs. Ding Kui said with a choke.
Lu Ying jumped up and hurriedly said, "Oops, my stomach is uncomfortable, I want to go to the thatched house, and I'll tell you later." "Running out of the living room with his stomach covered, this trick is the most effective way to deal with the senior brother's inspection and practice.
"Judging from the news from all over the world, many talented young people have emerged, not only knights but also samurai, archers and magicians. Liu Yu saw different problems in the discussion between the two brothers and sisters.
"Is that a good thing or a bad thing?" In Ding Kui's memory, most of the heroic years were accompanied by war.
Liu Yu thought about it seriously and said, "I can't answer this question, judging from the strength of the young master, it is more likely to be a good thing." ”
"I hope it's going to be a good thing, a good thing for everybody. A trace of inexplicable worry appeared in Ding Kui's heart.
If there are too many strong people, the most likely thing is to fight, no one will accept anyone, and the result is to speak with strength, and they will not be willing to compete without a fight.
"Young master, the new clothes sent by the clan mansion have been changed, do you want to try it?" Ding Xiao rushed to the living room to report.
"No need, I can trust your craftsmanship, don't forget to leave me an extra frame for my belly, eating and drinking too much will inevitably cause my stomach to swell. Ding Kui put his mind back on the marriage ceremony.
There are many people in the royal family, and there are indispensable people who pour wine at the banquet, and Ding Kui, who has experienced a storm, knows it in his heart.
The clan government set the eldest princess's marriage ceremony on October 12, because it was only a marriage ceremony, so the ceremony was not public, and the people and merchants in the city could only bless the eldest princess and the concubine outside the palace, even the nobles could only participate by invitation.
What should you do if you want to join in the excitement and have not been invited? You can go to the Protector's Mansion before the ceremony to give gifts, and if you are lucky, you can say a few words to the prospective horse.
Beginning on 8 October, Ding Kui had to receive a flood of guests all day long, those he knew and those he didn't know, those he had heard of and those he hadn't heard, and those he wanted to see and those he didn't want to see.
No way, the last time the royal family married a princess was almost thirty years ago, which means that a whole generation has not seen a princess get married.
When they returned to the room at night, Ding Kui and Long Yan faced each other with tired expressions.
"Brother Kui, they praise the eldest princess in front of me, and it doesn't matter if I like to hear it or not, can you not let me come out to receive this kind of guest?" Long Yan complained.
"People come to the door to congratulate and bless you, don't you praise Shaodianluan? Bear with me, you are a member of the Ding family, who will I go if I don't ask you to come out to receive me? I can't see them at all, and there is no reason to keep them out. At this time, you will know the benefits of the big family, at least someone can help share it. Ding Kui rubbed the stiff muscles on his face.
"Were you so busy when you married me?" Long Yan's tone was sour.
"Haha, don't compare these things, there was no marriage ceremony at that time, but in order to marry you, I renovated Xiaxi Town and Laowu Town, and the eldest princess didn't have this treatment. Ding Kui's vanity was satisfied.
"Hmph, you're not for yourself, what am I trying to do now? Can I help you find someone to take care of me?" Long Yan was wronged, all she did was to help her husband marry a wife and come back, can she feel comfortable as a concubine.
"I've worked hard for you, I'll remember it, and I'll send you a good thing next time as compensation. Ding Kui was also unwilling to grieve Long Yan, but the Ding family could be the master, Ding Qi, Long Yan and him.
The Ding family is tired, but the harvest is not small, the gift is soft, and the popularity has also accumulated a lot, and those who can come in handy at a critical time may be those inconspicuous little people. At this time, the people who came to the door basically came with good intentions, and Ding Kui could not completely rely on his own family if he wanted to develop a little in the future, and there may be someone among the people who came in recent days who could help a lot.
Those who have a little friendship with Ding Kui don't come to the door at this time, they don't need to join in this excitement and have a relationship with Ding Kui, but there are exceptions.
"Brother Nangong, isn't this here to make trouble for me? I won't leave the capital immediately after the marriage ceremony, you can find me later. Ding Kui complained as soon as he saw Nangong Hire's face.
"Brother Ding doesn't know, you didn't leave the capital so quickly, but I'm leaving soon. Nangong Ping said with a wry smile.
"Oh, don't you even attend the marriage ceremony between me and the eldest princess?" Ding Kui didn't expect Nangong to answer like this.
"Yes, I will return to my family fiefdom early the day after tomorrow, and I heard that the experience arranged for me by my family is about to begin, so I am here to bid you farewell today. "Nangong hired himself and didn't figure out the actual situation yet.
"How could it be so sudden? I haven't heard you say it before. Ding Kui inevitably wondered, he had seen Nangong Hire more times recently than Kong Ren, and not participating in his marriage ceremony was a big deal, so it stands to reason that Nangong Hire would have made it clear a long time ago.
"My father told me yesterday, why don't I tell you today? ”
"Ah, what about those ones?" Ding Kui didn't say clearly, but he knew that Nangong knew about it.
"I'm afraid, like me, that you will have to leave the capital before the twelfth. This is Nangong Ping's speculation.
Yo, the indigenous dukes are only now realizing that their juniors are acting voluntarily against me? If they are really "native", their thoughts are incomprehensible.
Ding Kui felt that things were not in line with common sense, but it was not easy to tell Nangong Hire clearly, "It's a pity, I originally planned to use your friendship with the eldest princess to walk around with the eldest princess more, but I never thought that you would not even participate in the marriage ceremony, I am very sorry in my heart." ”
"Brother Ding doesn't have to be like this, we will definitely be present at the eldest princess's wedding in the future, just ask you to remember me." ”
"Remember, since it's the family's meaning, I can't persuade you, experience is also a very important thing, it is an indispensable part of the growth stage, I hope you will become a hero as soon as possible. Ding Kui took out the official rhetoric.
This kind of programmed language has been very slippery lately, and he can say it without thinking, and speaking is also a matter of practice makes perfect.
"Brother Ding, don't laugh at me, the heroes who stand up to the sky are killed on the battlefield, and I really want to learn from you when I have the chance. I wish you and the eldest princess a harmonious relationship, eternal marriage, and many children and grandchildren!" Nangong said with his fists cupped.
"Accept your good words. Ding Kui returned the favor.
"I know you're busy, so I won't bother you when I'm done. You stay, I'll go by myself. Nangong Ping left after speaking, this time he came over to say hello.
Well, this kid is very interesting, he has done everything he should do, and he will never drag the mud and water, and he will be a promising person in the future.
Ding Kui admires people like Nangong Ping, whether they are friends or enemies.
The preparation for the marriage ceremony was in charge of the clan government, and Ding Kui was not only responsible for arranging the people the man was going to attend, but all that was left was to appear at the ceremony on time.
The most nervous person in the Protectorate Mansion is Ding Xiao, to ensure that Ding Kui attends the ceremony in the best condition, she also has to wait for Long Yan, not only that, but she is responsible for the dress of all the people who participate in the ceremony.
Even Ding Qi was full of praise for Ding Xiao, "In the past, my mother was taking care of these things at home, but now there are only a few people in our family, and only Ding Xiao understands and can do it." Uncle Kun is old and unfamiliar with women's dresses; Long Yan is young and knows little about the rules of the royal family, so it is really difficult to do without Ding Xiao. ”
"That's why I said that when Ding Xiao got married, he had to follow the specifications of Miss Ding's family, and this matter was decided. Ding Kui took the opportunity to seek benefits for his personal maid, and in his eyes, Ding Xiao was like a big sister.
In the early morning of October 12, the road from Xichaomen Street to the palace was filled with guards from the Imperial Palace, who were responsible for the safety of the guests who came out of the Guardian Palace.
Last night, Long Yan deliberately went to sleep in the rain return room, so as to prevent Ding Kui from being able to help but mess around all night, resulting in no energy to participate in the marriage ceremony today, and she got up before dawn and personally dressed Ding Kui.
"How's Xiaoxiao?" Ding Kui sat honestly at the table at the mercy of Long Yan.
"She has gone to the master's side, and she will go to Baron Luchi in a while, Miss Lu Ying is the only one who can wait for her. Long Yan applied Ding Kui's makeup very carefully.
"You've been melting on my face for half an hour, so I'll do it myself. "Ding Kui is a master of disguise, and makeup is not a layman.
"What, aren't you satisfied?" Long Yan twitched her nose.
"Don't dare, don't dare, you're free, time is in time. Ding Kui gradually got acquainted with Long Yan's temper and wanted to follow his hair.
It took more than ten minutes before Long Yan stopped, "Okay, this will definitely fascinate the eldest princess." She admires her work with satisfaction.
Ding Kui shook it in front of the mirror and said, "Isn't it too white?" ”
"What do you know? I specially inquired, this is the most popular costume in the royal family, white, it must be white! The people of the Shaodian family are all red-haired, and your face is white enough to stand out with them. Long Yan smoothed out the wrinkles on Ding Kui's clothes.
"What about you? Are you going to attend the ceremony like this?"
"That's right, today's protagonist is the eldest princess, and my current outfit is the most suitable. Long Yan only put a light layer of makeup on her face.
"What a sensible daughter-in-law. Ding Kui picked up Long Yan's face and wanted to kiss it.
Long Yan hurriedly pushed him away and said, "Don't, so that both of us have to get our makeup done, and we have to go out immediately, we have to arrive before the palace gate opens." ”
