It's daybreak, the showers have stopped, there are no clouds in the sky, and the sky is clear and blue.
Outside the Chu Mansion, gongs and drums shook the sky, firecrackers resounded throughout the world, and the sedan chair to welcome the bride arrived as scheduled.
After a while, Chu Yueyin, who was wearing a bright red wedding dress, a phoenix crown on her head, and a Xipa, was carried out of the Chu Mansion by Xipo and put on a sedan chair. The sedan was escorted by the guards led by Leng Feng and walked through the city.
Fang returned to the imperial city and carried him in from the Qianyuan Gate until he stopped in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
The wedding team and the escort team left the sedan chair and knelt on both sides of the white marble avenue. Together with the civil and military officials who had been waiting early in the morning, they lowered their heads and frowned, waiting for the arrival of Yu Wenhua. The rich and handsome emperor.
Wearing a bright red wedding dress, she slowly walked down the stone steps down the hall and walked towards the sedan chair parked on the avenue.
There was silence all around. Chu Yueyin was sitting in the sedan chair, nervously twisting the silk handkerchief in her hands. Suddenly, the sedan made a loud noise, and she was startled. She felt the sedan shake, and then heard a familiar voice.
A voice sounded from the front: "Zitong, please get off the sedan!"
Yu Wenhua! It turned out that the sound was caused by him kicking the sedan door. Chu Yueyin stood up, bent down and got out of the sedan. Before she could stand still, Rou Ni was held by a big hand, and then she was led forward by Yu Wenhua.
Go. Because his head was covered with a hijab and he couldn't lower his head to look at the road, Chu Yueyin walked very carefully, which made it difficult to keep up with Yu Wenhua's pace.
"What's wrong?" Yu Wenhua asked in a low voice as he walked away.
"No, it's okay!" Chu Yueyin was concentrating on supporting the heavy phoenix crown when she suddenly heard Yu Wenhua's question and was surprised, "I... I can't see the road."
Yu Wenhua instantly understood her embarrassment and stopped.
Chu Yueyin felt the people around her stop and was feeling strange. Suddenly, Liu's waist was wrapped by an iron arm, and then her whole body was lightened and she was picked up by Yu Wenhua.
"Hold me." Yu Wenhua's whisper came to her ears. Chu Yueyin's face heated up, and she obediently wrapped her arms around his neck. In this way, her head rested on his chest.
"Yeah." Yu Wenhua hummed.
Chu Yueyin couldn't see Yu Wenhua's expression through Xipa. She didn't know what happened to him, so she asked uneasily: "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, don't move." Yu Wenhua said as he took big steps and walked up the high steps to the main hall step by step. Behind him, a large number of civil and military officials knelt, all with their heads lowered.
Last night, I heard Aunt Xinyue talk about the wedding ceremony. The stone steps of the Hall of Supreme Harmony were for the emperor and the queen to walk up together. Was it considered a "foul" if Yu Wenhua hugged her and walked up?
Waves of heat came from Yu Wenhua's body. Chu Yueyin felt that her face was getting hotter and hotter. It was probably red and about to bleed. Fortunately, it was covered by a silk scarf. She felt a little uncomfortable.
Yu Wenhua's chest moved a little.
"Didn't I tell you not to move?" Yu Wenhua's low roar came to his ears. Chu Yueyin was startled, wondering where she had offended him. Suddenly, as if a flash of inspiration occurred, Chu Yueyin seemed to know that Yu Wenhua
Why was she angry? She moved her head again tentatively.
Sure enough, Yu Wenhua exploded again: "Chu Yueyin! If you move again, I will throw you down!"
The threat of nakedness! Chu Yueyin secretly snickered. The jewels on the phoenix crown really hurt him. But Yu Wenhua threatened her, so she didn’t dare to move anymore. If she angered him, she would really throw herself away.
It would be so embarrassing to go to the ground, in full view of the public. How could she be the master of the harem in the future?
Time seemed to have passed for a long time, and Yu Wenhua finally stopped, put Chu Yueyin down, helped her stand firm, and then let go of his hand. The two stood side by side quietly.
There was a faint smell of incense floating in the air. It seemed that a wedding hall had been set up in this hall, and red candles for worship were lit. The phoenix crown on the head seemed to be getting heavier and heavier. Chu Yueyin tried his best to straighten his waist, and began to
Sweat breaks out.
At this time, a clear shout came from outside the hall: The auspicious time has come!
Someone in the hall shouted loudly: "The auspicious time has come! The wedding ceremony has begun!"
"Worship heaven and earth!"
Yu Wenhua touched Chu Yueyin's catkin and motioned for her to turn around with him. At this time, there was a splashing sound outside the hall, like the sound of many people lifting up their robes. Chu Yueyin felt a little puzzled and didn't have time to think about it carefully.
Hua knelt on the ground together.
If it weren't for the hikerchief covering her head, Chu Yueyin would have seen that the civil and military officials who were originally kneeling towards the main hall had all turned around before she and Yu Wenhua knelt down, towards the direction of Qianyuan Gate, which is the south.
Kneel down and worship, even the attendants in the palace
The officials, including the chief attendant who presided over the ceremony, all knelt on the ground. The reason was very simple. The Nine-Fifth Emperor was kneeling. Who dared not to kneel, and who dared to let the emperor kneel to him? So without exception, they all came to court.
Kneel down and bow in the same direction.
There was only one exception in the main hall. This person was the emperor's biological mother, the current Queen Mother---Zhao Muqin! When everyone was kneeling, she was the only one sitting on the chair, waiting. When everyone lowered their heads,
As she knitted her eyebrows, she was the only one looking at the newlyweds in their wedding clothes.
Therefore, the Queen Mother Zhao clearly saw the interaction between Yu Wenhua and Chu Yueyin. The Queen Mother Zhao was very curious about what kind of woman was kneeling next to Yu Wenhua, who could make the emperor insist on marrying her despite the objections of the courtiers.
For later.
"Two thanks to Gaotang!"
Yu Wenhua and Chu Yueyin turned around and knelt down to Queen Mother Zhao. Once again, a large crowd knelt outside the hall.
"Couple greetings!"
Chu Yueyin turned around again and knelt down facing Yu Wenhua. This time, Yu Wenhua did not kneel, he just bowed slightly and helped Chu Yueyin up.
"It's done!"
Chu Yueyin breathed a sigh of relief. It was finally over, and she would be sent to the bridal chamber later. She secretly planned to take off the phoenix crown as soon as she arrived at the bridal chamber, and if she continued to wear it, her neck would break. However,
Yu Wenhua took her by the hand again and took her outside the main hall, where she stood facing the civil and military officials.
"All the ministers are safe!" Yu Wenhua deliberately gathered his energy, and his majestic voice spread far and wide.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" All the officials said in unison, and then stood up.
Yu Wenhua turned Chu Yueyin's body towards him, took off her wedding scarf, pushed back the tassels hanging on her phoenix crown, and looked at her charming face and slightly surprised expression, revealing a meaningful smile.
The bright red silk handkerchief fell to the ground. Yu Wenhua took Chu Yueyin's hand and turned her body towards the civil and military officials again.
"Everyone, please raise your heads! She--Chu Yueyin, from this moment on is my queen, the queen of Zangyuan Kingdom! You must be loyal to her as you are to me!"
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Queen! Thousands of years live the Queen! I swear allegiance to the Emperor to the death, and I swear allegiance to the Queen to the death!" Everyone said in unison, and the voice resounded throughout the entire Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Chu Yueyin looked at the dense crowd below, dumbfounded, and pretended to be calm.
