The wedding celebration of Queen Yuezhao and the Prince Regent did not allow guests to record or take photos, and it was held in a simple yet grand manner.
In terms of simplicity, the ceremony does not go beyond the All Saints Palace. In terms of grandness, any person who is allowed to watch the ceremony is a god in the eyes of ordinary people.
In front of the Hall of Harmony in the All Saints Palace, Lu Ming also put on traditional Japanese clothing and wore a black gauze top hat symbolizing the regent. The Queen wore a "Shirakama", which is a snow-white kimono, including all clothing accessories.
White symbolizes the purity of the bride. Outside of its "whiteness", it is an extremely colorful Japanese-style queen's dress. There are eighteen layers of clothing of different sizes inside and outside the layers. In addition to the tall queen's crown, the moon shines on the queen.
At this moment, it is majestic and beautiful.
The bride and groom worshiped heaven and earth in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony and drank cups of wine.
In this regard, the traditional customs of Japanese and Central Asian people are not much different.
Watching the ceremony in front of the hall were the main members of the royal family, including Queen Yuezhao's uncle and two aunts, as well as her cousins.
There is Ashikaga Prime Minister and all cabinet ministers.
Local lords or lord representatives.
There were fourteen Japanese generals standing straight, who were the division commanders of the fourteen divisions.
Riku Yoshimitsu, Minister of the Air Force Department of Japan's Central Defense Force, is Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the son of the old Prime Minister Ashikaga and the father of Ashikaga Erika.
Its Air Force Department has forty attack aircraft, and everything from pilot training to technical support comes from the Principality of Montenegro.
Several more big chaebols were invited. Their expressions were different, but they were naturally the heads of the richest families in southern Japan.
There are also Du Cunzhao, Consul General of the Principality of Montenegro in Japan, and Lieutenant General Gao Qingshan, commander of the Military Base of the Principality of Montenegro in Xianquan.
Xianquan Military Base is stationed with an infantry division of the Principality and the First Aviation Regiment of the Second Division of the Principality Air Force. This aviation regiment is a fighter regiment with forty air-to-air fighters that can cooperate with the Japanese Air Force in combat and escort it to deal with possible situations.
It can also easily shoot down Japan's attack aircraft fleet.
Amidst the extremely solemn music of the royal guard of honor, Lu Ming and Queen Yuezhao got into the carriage and embarked on the "Road of Sacred Oaths", which is actually a section of the road from the Hall of Supreme Harmony to Jiutian Oazhao Shrine, just before Halloween.
Inside the palace, the road is paved with white jade rocks, with white jade railings on both sides, and flowers scattered all the way.
Hundreds of flower girls, both male and female, sent neat blessings with their tender voices.
In front of the shrine, the owner of the shrine, the maid of the royal family who serves the Nine Heavens Oteru, is the aunt of Queen Tsutsuki by seniority, an old lady wearing snow-white clothes, whispering strange words for the Queen and the Regent.
Prayers, and then announced that the two were officially married under the sacred blessing of Jiutian Dazhao, and their children would inherit the blood of the gods.
In this way, the most important part of the ceremony is completed, and the rest is relatively relaxed. It is similar to the folk. The following ceremonies are carried out under the witness of relatives and friends, various traditional musical instruments, dance performances, etc. Finally, the Queen and the Regent entertain relatives and friends.
After making a brief appearance at the banquet, he returned to the Night Palace, which is also commonly known as the Living Hall.
…
In the Yeyu Palace, Queen Yuezhao, who was sitting on her knees in the palace, was wearing a phoenix crown and a red veil.
Obviously Yuezhao will finally use the Central Continent ceremony to complete the marriage seamlessly with the Prince of Black Mountain Castle.
Lu Ming was not notified beforehand, and it was also a surprise for "husband".
Beside Queen Tsukizhao, there was a beautiful female official in a dark purple kimono with a bun and a black gauze. Lu Ming knew them both, Jinguji Hyohime and Takeuchi Mie.
At this time, both women put their palms on the ground, their foreheads resting on their palms, and they said in clear voices: "Your Excellency, the Soldier Princess of Jinguji Temple (Mie Takeuchi), bows to His Highness the Regent!"
In order to marry Queen Yuezhao, Lu Ming had a certain understanding of the Japanese royal family.
The so-called minister is the highest-ranking female official in the palace. She can be regarded as the king's secretary-general. She mainly manages the affairs of the internal affairs department, the management of artifacts, petitions and rewards and punishments for harem affairs, the management of harem female officials and officials' wives, and the communication of king's edicts, etc.
Task.
The number of ministers is two, and they are usually filled by the unmarried daughters of important ministers or the wives of married ministers, but they also often become the king's concubines, which is a very high honorary position.
Originally, Yuezhao's father only married a queen and wanted to abolish the system of concubines and female officials, but he fell seriously ill and died before the official edict was issued.
Unexpectedly, Yuezhao appointed two ministers this month.
The soldier of Jinguji Temple whispered: "Your Highness, I only found out today, and I haven't had time to report it to Your Highness."
Lu Ming nodded slightly. It was obvious that Jinguji Soldier Princess was a cover, and the person Yuezhao really wanted to recruit into the palace to be her assistant was Takeuchi Mie.
Takeuchi Mie fits the status of the "married wife of a hero" in the selection of Shang Shi.
Her husband Takeuchi Yoichi is the mayor of Kyoto and a member of the cabinet.
I have to say that these two couples are amazing, they are my old acquaintances.
When he was leading the trip in Yoshida as a representative of the land, Takeuchi Yoichi was the mayor of the small Nayama City, and he recommended his wife Takeuchi Mie to him and served as his translator for a short period of time.
Of course, I definitely don’t need a translator now. Seeing that I often travel in Japan, I have worked hard to learn Japanese.
Takeuchi Yoichi was not promoted by himself, Du Cunzhao valued him very much, and for some reason, he became a close confidant of Prime Minister Ashikaga. This shows that he really has extraordinary talents.
It is remarkable that he joined the cabinet and served as the mayor of Kyoto at such a young age.
His wife did not hesitate to give in. She actually became Yuezhao's confidant and was appointed as one of the two ministers. Naturally, she was the contact Yuezhao needed for external contacts. She even needed this Takeuchi when doing something without telling her.
Benefits connect the inside and outside.
Lu Ming's mind was spinning, his face remained calm, and he smiled and said: "Very good."
"Husband, you two ministers, I am going to confer the rank of two ladies, what do you think, husband?" Yue Zhao asked softly.
Lu Ming smiled: "The bride wearing a red hijab is not allowed to speak before I take off the red hijab."
Yue Zhao was speechless.
Lu Ming looked at Jinguji Hyogei, then at Takeuchi Mie, and said with a smile: "From now on, the outside world will call you the second bureau-sama of Jinguji and the second bureau-sama of Takeuchi. According to the past, you are on the same level as the Prime Minister.
.”
Jinguji Hyoki and Takeuchi Miji knelt on the ground without saying a word.
Lu Ming thought, Yuezhao's father had stopped granting female officials the rank because under the cabinet system, such ranks were meaningless.
Now Yuezhao has restored it and has its own deeper thoughts.
Taking two steps forward, he gently lifted Yuezhao's red hijab, and immediately revealed a beautiful face that was as fierce as frost and snow.
"Your Majesty, please enter the Night Palace." Takeuchi Mie said softly from the side.
Lu Ming's east bedroom has been surrounded by yellow curtains.
Yuezhao entered the bridal chamber first. After Shang Shi undressed and took off his belt, Lu Ming was able to enter. He also took off his clothes and took off his belt, leaving only his underwear. The two of them lay down on their backs. An old woman came and covered them with a quilt.
quit.
The old woman chose a commoner with many children and grandchildren, and her husband is still alive. She has a lot of children and grandchildren, none of whom died in infancy. She is considered to be a particularly blessed person, and she covers the newlywed queen and her husband with hundreds of children and thousands of grandchildren. This pair
She is also a great honor.
After the old woman withdrew, the two ministers, Jinguji Hyohime and Takeuchi Mie, presented them with cakes that were about the same age as the queen and retreated. The queen and the regent would have to eat them for the next three days.
This night cake.
After the grille door was closed, I heard Jinguji Hyohime and Takeuchi Mie whispering their goodbyes, and the sound of soft footsteps disappeared.
There were dim red candles in the bedroom, but no one spoke.
Lu Ming glanced at Yuezhao beside him. Her shoulders were exposed by the velvet quilt. It was obvious that she was wearing a thin kimono underwear, that is, her snow-white ruffles made her pretty face even more charming.
She closed her eyes gently and blinked her long black eyelashes, looking very uneasy and ready to endure something.
Lu Ming turned his head, closed his eyes, and said, "I've been tired these past few days. Go to sleep." He went back to Shengjing to talk to his real family.
Yuezhao was startled instead, and turned around to see that Lu Ming seemed to have quickly fallen asleep.
