Chapter two hundred and forty-eight wedding candles
Hou Xuanyan became more and more speculative as he talked, and he left the two of them at the mansion and spent supper.
When leaving the Marquis' Mansion, Jiang Jianxun was confused, as if in the clouds.
Wu Shouyu was complacent and flattered, "Uncle, what I said, just by your talent and demeanor, you will be valued by the Duke."
The Wu family and Hou Xuanyan in Jinling are becoming more and more deeply involved. The Wu family and Gu family hope to get the powerful Hou Xuanyan to protect their own industries. Hou Xuanyan is also happy to support these enlightened gentry, so that the Ming Dynasty's business will become more developed and free from the shackles of the small peasant economy.
In the Age of Discovery, the role of merchants is of great importance, and they will shine in the future with a focus on the overall situation.
Hou Xuan promoted him to the Left Minister of War Office, and then Jiang Jianxun understood why Wu Jikun kept saying that he was unconventional. He straightened his back and smiled humbly: "Haha, it's all about the Duke's love."
Jiang Jianxun’s years of experience, after his own narration, did not sound fabricated. The power and wit in it show that this person is very talented and short of people in the court, so Hou Xuanyan Gan Gang was arbitrary and casually appointed.
Hou Xuanyan's approach of appointing northerners has already aroused the dissatisfaction of local Wu and Chu officials. Some people even said: The court only knew how to use a person who shaved his hair and was awarded the new work order, and was ashamed to say that his temples were finished.
He was forced to shave his hair during his flight to the south, but he was always regarded as a loss of integrity. As long as he had no braids in his heart, Hou Xuanyan would dare to boldly appoint him unless he was a person with too itchy scalp.
-----------------
The next morning, in Suzhou City, Xia Yunyi took the lead in marriage, and the Duke of Yue married the princess Huang Ying'er.
Marrying a wife in the family is a big deal for any family, let alone a regent like Hou Xuanyan, who has attracted millions of people.
There was no such thing as a wife in the Ming Dynasty. Generally, there was only one official family, but Hou Xuan played the battle between Jingxiang and made a great contribution than the sky. In order to avoid disaster, he took such a privilege that only one case was left in the world.
Hou Xuanyan became the boss here and left everything to others in the house to do. He was leisurely and felt guilty every day.
As the preparatory party for this wedding, the Gu family made some effort and not only made all kinds of preparations, but also sent relatives who had married to teach the matters between beds in person.
The relatives of the Gu family came to think that Huang Ying'er was still a yellow girl, and they spoke in hiding their mouths, for fear of scaring the bride who was about to marry.
Unexpectedly, Huang Ying'er had been swallowed up by Hou Xuanyan for a long time, and I don't know how many shameful positions I tried. Listening to these ordinary ones, I was bored and drowsy.
At dusk, the auspicious time has arrived, and the welcome team of the Hou family officially set off.
Xia Yunyi was familiar with the etiquette system. This time he took over the power and commanded the entire wedding. On a whim, he was ready to have a retro ancient ceremony. The wedding was a ritual. According to the etiquette system, he would only marry at dusk.
Along the way, the music and music sounded, and came to the Gu family's mansion. Huang Ying'er waited for a day, and finally waited for the welcome outside and shouted happily: "Is it my little brother Hou here?"
The Gu family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law laughed together, but Huang Ying'er didn't realize it, but she turned her two dowry maids so embarrassed that they blushed.
The two maids had a huge force, so they secretly pulled her back and held it down, saving them from being embarrassed.
Fan Xiong led Hou Xuanyan into the hall, kowtowed to Duke Jingguo's spiritual position, and then came to the inner courtyard of the group of female porridge porridge under the guidance of everyone.
The third daughter-in-law of the Gu family in the inner courtyard gently pushed her lips and slapped her lips. Miao'er knew that they could go out. She held Huang Ying'er's arm and took her out.
After walking through the threshold, Xia Yunyi stood on the steps and delivered a happy speech. Although he was familiar with ancient etiquette, this time it was the first time he had tried it himself, which was a pleasure.
Hou Xuanyan stepped forward and led his bride. He took three steps and stopped and stopped for half an hour before he sent his little wife to the wedding car. He sat in the groom's position without whipping, but only shook the reins. The four flat horses slowly took a step forward, and the wheels turned three times. Hou Xuanyan then tied the reins, dismounted the horse, handed the reins to the real groom. He stepped on the red horse, rode his horse back home, and welcomed the bride at the door of the house. The bride sent to the bride and walked onto the bluestone road in Suzhou City.
Xia Yunyi only focused on experimenting with ancient etiquette himself, and made Hou Xuanyan, who had been raising his energy for seven or eight days, making his waist and legs hurt.
Finally, the tedious wedding ended. Xia Yunyi took Suzhou officials and gentry with satisfaction, and the guests in the hall left with a smile.
Hou Xuanyan cursed inwardly: In the future, this kind of thing will never be used again.
Hou Xuanyan, who was drunk, walked to the newly packed inner courtyard of the Hou Mansion and pushed the door open.
There was a man in red sitting on the front of the wedding bed. Although he covered his head, Hou Xuanyan could tell at a glance that it was his Huang Yinger.
The wedding girl greeted her with a smile. She was an old woman specially found by Hou Qizeng. Her family was prosperous and she had many children and grandchildren.
He directed two people to take off the tassels. "Qu Li" says: "A woman promises to marry, and a tassel." "Taste" is a kind of silk rope. After a woman betroths, she uses it to tie her hair to indicate that she has a partner: "It shows that she is following the end of others." It was not until she got married that the silk rope was untied from her hair by the groom himself. This is what "the master (son-in-law) enters and takes off the tassels of the wife" in "The Legend of the Etiquette of the Literary of the Qi Li Shi" says, "the master (son-in-law) enters, and the wife takes off the tassels of the wife."
Then there was a bun, that is, Hou Xuanyan and Huang Ying'er, each cut a lock of hair and wrapped it in one place. After that, the queen left a meaningful smile and quietly retreated.
Hou Xuanyan looked at his bride with the drunkenness, and the red candle flashed.
As the saying goes, one thing defeats another, and there is a disaster in the Duke of Jingguo's mansion. Huang Ying'er, who was domineering in the domineering world, was as if she had met a nemesis when she glared at her and became weak all over.
But tonight is a wedding night, so Hou Xuanyan is naturally reluctant to stare at her. He is so pityful that he is so gentle and spends the middle of the night in sweet words. Huang Ying'er's satisfaction is indescribable, and she finally married a wife and became the wife of her favorite person.
Soon Hou Xuanyan discovered that under his gentleness and considerate care, although Huang Ying'er's cheeks were red and she was gasping for a while, she was not as emotional as usual. At that time, it was mostly an affair, and there were two maids beside him. He could feel that Huang Ying'er was as soft as spring. But tonight, she always felt that she was not very satisfied.
Hou Xuanyan's heart moved, and he was already clear. He curled his lips and smiled, and suddenly stood up.
Huang Ying'er was startled and then found that her husband's movements gradually became rough. Hou Xuan slapped her. With a crisp sound, Huang Ying'er cried sweetly, and her eyes gradually covered with a layer of mist, and she became nervous, longing and excited.
