In the 26th year of the Zhenyuan period, he guarded the country.
The imperial capital, Yecheng.
Ten miles of brocade are red, and gongs and drums are noisy.
Today is the wedding day of Liu Pinting, the daughter of the Marquis of Jingguo, and Ji Chenxue, the eldest son of Prince Heng, and the streets are already crowded with people watching the excitement.
One is the niece of the current empress, and the other is the crown prince who is favored by thousands of people. Both of them are the proud sons of heaven, and they are the best among men.
This marriage is a perfect match, a match made in heaven.
Liu Pinting was sitting in the sedan chair, with a big red wedding handkerchief covering her sight. Her slender white fingers gently touched the scar that no longer existed on her wrist, the corners of her mouth were slowly raised, and her eyes were bright.
stars.
When the prince's palace and the prince's palace marry, betrothal gifts and dowries are not uncommon.
Looking at the huge procession and the amount of dowry, I don’t know how many people were envious.
After blowing and beating along the way, the sedan finally landed at the gate of Prince Heng's Mansion smoothly.
However, after waiting for a long time, the groom could not come to lift the sedan curtain.
The discussion outside was getting louder and louder, but Liu Pinting remained seated in the sedan chair, her expression unchanged.
She knew that her soon-to-be husband-in-law had not come to welcome him in person, but his good friend and cousin, the eldest son of Prince Chengjun, Mu Liuting, was the one to welcome her.
When she heard the news, although she was a little disappointed, it was within her expectations.
After all, the man had clearly stated that he did not want to marry her, so it was not too strange that he would act like this.
However, it made everyone in the Marquis of Jingguo's house so angry. Especially the old Marquis, when he found out, he became furious and threatened to cancel the marriage on the spot. But she asked the maid next to her to spread the word, saying that she was the only person she would not marry in this life.
Knowing that she had made up her mind, the old man was angry, but in order not to miss her auspicious moment, he still had someone help her onto the sedan chair.
Liu Pinting knew that her decision to marry that man had broken the old man's heart.
However, she has no regrets. She has always wanted to make the decision in her own life and not leave it to others.
Happiness, of course, must be achieved by oneself.
After waiting for about half a cup of tea, Prince Heng and his wife, newly dressed, came in a hurry. With Po Xi carrying the bride off the sedan, they personally welcomed her into the wedding hall.
This can be regarded as giving the bride enough face.
It's just that someone else can greet the bride on your behalf, and someone else can pick up the sedan chair on your behalf, but this time you have to come and pay your respects in person.
As the auspicious time approached, Prince Heng and his wife sent people to the inner courtyard to urge him many times, but they never saw the groom. Finally, they saw a servant in the groom's yard tremblingly carrying a rooster into the wedding hall.
There is also a big red silk hanging around the rooster's neck, which looks very funny.
When they saw the rooster in the servant's hand, the faces of the guests in the hall varied. Some were just looking forward to a good show, while others felt sorry for the bride.
In the hall, Prince Heng's face sank to the bottom of his face. He was as ugly as he could be. It's okay for the child to be disobedient at ordinary times, but he didn't expect that he would dare to mess around with this important event of marriage, especially in front of the whole hall of guests.
His old face was completely lost. Even Princess Heng, who had always doted on the prince, could not help but frown at this moment. She looked at the servants below in displeasure and said, "What's going on? I didn't ask you to invite me."
Prince? Why did you catch a chicken and come in?"
"The prince said, say..." The boy shrank back and replied tremblingly, fearing that if he said a wrong word, he would anger the two people in the hall.
But at this time, whether he said it or not, everyone in the hall would definitely be angry.
