Concubine Xian's eyebrows were covered with a layer of gloom: "Aren't Yi An and Ah Xing very close to each other on weekdays?"
"It is said that Third Young Master Xu was close to Master Zhou, and Prince Wang was dragged to the next door by Third Young Master Xu." Grandma Dai did not dare to speak too loudly.
The attitude of Cao Guogong's mansion is ambiguous, but the crown prince of Cao Guogong went to the next door. Even if he was dragged there by Xu Yanqing, it might only be half-assed.
After all, this is not a good sign.
Concubine Xian sneered: "If Yi An doesn't want to go, who can pull him away?! It's just because he thought that that person had a better chance of winning than Ah Xing, so Yi An went to the wedding banquet next door."
Not only Wang Yian, but also other dignitaries in the capital. In the past, who didn’t look after Ah Xing? Now they are all next door, and they are all just wallflowers who follow the wind.
Aunt Dai didn't know how to answer the question for a while, and after a while she said: "Hasn't the Queen Mother expressed her position yet? The Queen Mother's attitude is the true attitude of the Duke Cao's government. In the past, the Queen Mother doted on the Queen Mother the most, and she would never let it go.
The empress is disappointed."
"Then the Queen Mother is here today?" Concubine Xian sarcastically retorted.
Aunt Dai shook her head silently: "The Queen Mother has been disobedient since yesterday and refused to see anyone."
Therefore, it is impossible to go out of the palace to eat anyone's wedding wine today. In other words, the Queen Mother also has a wait-and-see attitude.
As soon as Zhou Mu gets married, the next step is to recognize his ancestors and return to the clan. By then, the matter of establishing a crown prince will be put on the agenda. His Highness the King of Qin's chances of winning are really slim.
At this time, Zhou Xingju, who was wearing a wedding robe, walked in. His face was gloomy, and there was no trace of the joy that he should have when he got married.
"I know that Liu Chaoyan has a tough life, so you should cancel her marriage!" Concubine Xian naturally shifted the responsibility to Liu Chaoyan.
"Didn't my mother think Chao Yan was good that day?!" Zhou Xing raised his lips sarcastically.
"Didn't I see that you liked her, so I allowed you to propose marriage to her? If she hadn't seduced you, how could you have fallen into her trap? If not, you wouldn't be in such an embarrassing situation today!"
Concubine Xian clenched her fists and hit the table hard with her palm: "It's too late to regret it now."
Zhou Xing pinched his eyebrows lightly and looked at the deserted mansion: "Wait a minute, the wedding banquet will be held in the evening, maybe the guests will only come in the afternoon."
If all the guests go to the house next door, then he will really become the laughing stock of the capital.
Compared with the deserted Qin Prince's Mansion, the Zhou Mansion is full of guests.
A large number of officials have never been to the Zhou Mansion. In the previous dynasty, only a handful of officials were lucky enough to enter Prince An's Mansion. Later, with the change of dynasties, this most luxurious mansion in the capital naturally became a grand place that everyone yearned for.
.
After Emperor Chengde ascended the throne, he did not reward this mansion, but now it has become Zhou Mu's new residence, which shows that Emperor Chengde valued Zhou Mu.
The moment Wang Yian and Xu Yanqing walked into the Zhou Mansion, they were also shocked by its magnificent and gorgeous architectural style.
The Zhou Mansion covers a total area of about ninety acres. The buildings are well-proportioned, solemn and solemn, with bright corridors leading to the ridge.
The forest and garden on the residence are surrounded by water and surrounded by mountains, with winding corridors, pavilions and pavilions, and everything you need. Even compared with the imperial palace, it is not necessarily inferior.
"Sure enough, being famous is not as good as seeing him. Your Majesty is really fond of Mr. Zhou." Wang Yian said in a low voice.
He looked around, eager to see the butterfly girl from last time.
It was strange to say that even though he had only met Hu Die once, he had been dreaming of Hu Die making coquettish gestures to him recently, which made him lose interest in looking at all the concubines in his house.
"Shall we go to the wedding ceremony in the evening?" Wang Yian lightly bumped Xu Yanqing's shoulder.
Xu Yanqing stayed away from him in disgust: "Don't think that I don't know what your intentions are."
Just before coming to the Zhou Mansion, Wang Yian never left Hu Die, making it clear that he was still thinking about Hu Die.
"Don't you want to meet the bride?" Wang Yian laughed.
Of course Xu Yanqing wanted to see him, but so what if he did? It would only cause trouble. He came to enjoy Xiyan's wedding wine today, not to cause trouble for her.
"I advise you not to provoke Hu Die. Xiyan is a protector of shortcomings and will never allow you to provoke Hu Die." Xu Yanqing persuaded again.
Wang Yian's eyes flashed slightly: "If I discuss with Miss Gu, ask her for Hu Die, and accept her, I wonder if Miss Gu will agree?"
"Stop dreaming. Do you think someone with Hu Die's temperament will fall in love with you? Xi Yan regards Hu Die as a friend, how could she push her friend into your fire pit?" Xu Yanqing became more and more angry.
Wang Yian felt confused: "Hu Die is not yours, why are you so angry?"
After all, he is the eldest son of the Duke of Guo, right? Doesn't being his concubine flatter Hu Die? It's impossible for Hu Die to want to be his eldest son's wife with her life experience.
"I just don't like your frivolous attitude towards women. Not every woman is willing to be your concubine. Don't always look down on women, or you may capsize in the gutter." Xu Yanqing didn't want to talk nonsense to Wang Yian anymore and walked away quickly.<
/p>
Wang Yi'an liked to hang out with Xu Yanqing, so he quickly followed him, but Xu Yanqing couldn't get rid of him even if he wanted to.
Emperor Chengde came to Zhou Mansion half an hour before the wedding ceremony.
At first, Emperor Cheng De didn't show up for a long time. The guests thought that Emperor Cheng De had gone to the Qin Prince's Mansion next door. They thought they had mistakenly guessed the holy intention.
But the Qin Prince's Mansion was always quiet and empty, which meant that Emperor Chengde did not go to the Qin Prince's Mansion.
While waiting anxiously, Emperor Chengde finally arrived at the Zhou Mansion, but did not go to the Qin Prince's Mansion for a wedding banquet. This only meant one thing: Zhou Mu's holy family was in full swing.
When the auspicious time came, Hu Die helped Gu Xiyan cross the saddle, walk through the brazier and other procedures. Finally, Zhou Mu and Gu Xiyan, the newlyweds, each held one end of the red chip and came to the confessional.
As a matter of course, Emperor Chengde sat in the first place and spoke before worshiping heaven and earth.
"Wei Qing asked me on the Lantern Festival where my eldest son was." Emperor Chengde's eyes fell on Taishi Wei.
Grand Master Wei came out and cooperated with Emperor Cheng De: "Not only the veteran wants to know, but other colleagues also want to know where His Highness is."
"Back then, Zi Mo was dying when he was born. It was Master Mingjue who saved Zi Mo's life. That year, Master Ming Jue told me that Zi Mo was destined to be a Buddha, so I let Zi Mo temporarily live in Fallen Immortal Temple. Twenty years ago in the blink of an eye.
Years have passed and Zimo has grown up. I am most gratified to see him get married and start a business in my lifetime." Emperor Cheng De said, with tears flashing in his eyes.
Everyone, headed by Grand Master Wei, immediately congratulated in unison: "Congratulations to Your Majesty and His Highness, father and son, on their reunion, and congratulations to His Highness on their happy wedding!!"
After that, Emperor Chengde personally presided over the wedding of Zhou Mu and Gu Xiyan until the ceremony was completed.
Gu Xiyan could only see the toes of many guests through her red hijab. She had rested in Qi Shiyuan for a few hours before, and now she was very energetic.
After the ceremony, the bride and groom bow to the elders of the groom's family one by one, and then to the guests and friends.
