In the eighth year of Zhenguan, on the first day of winter, there was heavy snow.
An edict was issued from the imperial palace.
The content of the edict is quite simple: Du He, the Duke of Hu State, has made many contributions to the Tang Dynasty. He is in love with Princess Runan and Princess Changle. Master Yuan Tiangang and Master Li Chunfeng observe the celestial phenomena at night and discover that Du He's destiny is in conjunction with the civil and military stars.
The two princesses were made for each other, so the Supreme Emperor made the decision to marry Princess Runan and Princess Changle to Du He... At the same time, he removed Du Hehu's status as a duke, demoted him to a commoner, and deposed Du Hehu as the county magistrate.
As a consort, he must serve the two princesses for the rest of his life and is not allowed to obtain a title or serve as an official in the court.
This is an edict that is wrong in every aspect!
In particular, this edict is not from His Majesty Li Er, but from His Majesty the Supreme Emperor.
And this also depends on the news that Changsun Wuji and others brought back that day. Although Li Er had made up his mind, he was worried that issuing such an edict would cause other problems. Who knew that he was still in Chang'an?
When Li Yuan of the International Shopping Center learned about it, he sent someone directly to tell Li Er that if you are hesitant and worried about damaging the majesty of the emperor, let me make the final decision on this matter.
Li Er couldn't get what he asked for.
Therefore, this edict was issued in the name of the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan.
As for Du He's marriage to Li Yuanshu and Li Lizhi, it was also arranged by the Supreme Emperor.
At this time, Zhao Yang came back.
Li Er raised his head and asked: "Has the edict been issued? What is the reaction of the ministers in the DPRK?"
Zhao Yang whispered: "Your Majesty, the edict has been issued and will be announced to the world soon. The ministers all say that your Majesty is wise!"
"Wise? Huh, these guys who cherish their reputation are worried that if I personally issue this edict, I will be called a coward by future generations. By then, they will also be called incompetent ministers." Li Er said helplessly,
"Although I am an emperor now, my courage and courage are far inferior to that of my father!"
Zhao Yang said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
"By the way, has the Supreme Emperor said when Du He, Yuanshu and Lizhi will get married? This matter is related to the royal family's reputation, so it needs to be handled well!" Li Er said.
Zhao Yang said with a strange expression: "Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor has made arrangements. Master Li Chunfeng has personally calculated the date, and the wedding day will be the day after tomorrow!"
The day after tomorrow?
Li Er was dumbfounded immediately.
When other princesses get married, it takes three to five months to prepare.
This time the two princesses got married, but they only had one day to prepare.
Isn't it too hasty?
"What is the Supreme Emperor doing at this moment?" Li Er asked with a twitching corner of his mouth.
"The Supreme Emperor is busy with astronomical matters. He said that he is very busy. Du He will get married as soon as possible and put an end to his worries. Don't bother him with such matters in the future!" Zhao Yang said cautiously, and then
Looking at Li Er in fear.
Li Er: "..."
He didn't even know what to say.
the other side.
But the Ministry of Rites is going crazy with its work.
There is only one day to prepare everything for the wedding of the two princesses and Du He.
It was fine for the Supreme Emperor not to show up, but Du He and the Duke of Lai didn't even care. This made Chen Shuda, the Minister of Rites, very angry.
He kept cursing Du He in his heart.
On the contrary, it was Du He's student Li Ke who kept busy with him and even secretly brought potato stew to Chen Shuda, following Chen Shuda like a follower.
After a lot of work, Chen Shuda's impression of Li Ke changed a lot.
He sighed: "Outsiders say that His Highness the King of Shu does not understand etiquette and is vulgar. But now it seems that the rumors are untrue. His Highness the King of Shu is still a good person!"
What made him a little strange was that the King of Shu actually cared very much about his family, and especially praised his two daughters for their beauty. This did not seem to be what a prince should do.
However, Chen Shuda didn't think much about it, and he was still very grateful to Li Ke for his concern.
The third day of the winter lunar month.
Early in the morning, Du He was forcibly arrested by a group of officials from the Ministry of Etiquette who rushed to Hu County. He put on a wedding dress and was stuffed into a carriage.
Feeling dizzy, Du He was taken to Princess Runan's Mansion near the imperial city. He held a worship ceremony with Princess Runan first, and then Li Er personally handed Li Yuanshu over to Du He.
Before Du He could react, he was hurriedly taken away from Princess Runan's Mansion and came to Princess Changle's Mansion to marry Princess Li Lizhi of Changle. Here, Li Er did not appear, but Queen Changsun handed Li Lizhi over.
Gave it to Du He.
Both princess mansions were cleaned up in one day yesterday. Although the time was short, there were still a lot of things that should be included.
As a person who traveled from later generations, Du He was immediately confused by various wedding etiquette. He could only act like a puppet, following the instructions of the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette.
…
Dream Group.
laboratory.
A little maid quickly ran into the yard and shouted to Mo Yifei in the room: "Miss, the Duke is getting married, and the entire Dream Group has gone to the cafeteria. Today, the cafeteria cooked delicious food for the Duke.
It’s a celebration, miss, won’t you go?”
Mo Yifei, who was fiddling with a machine, didn't seem to hear it.
She sat blankly.
Suddenly, her hand touched somewhere.
Wow.
The machine fell apart instantly.
Mo Yifei's thoughts returned to reality.
"I...I won't go. I still have a lot of things to do, so I won't join in the fun!"
"At this time, the worship service has been completed, and he is the consort!"
With that said, Mo Yifei turned around and two tears fell from the corners of her eyes.
When the little maid saw this, she turned around and went out silently, closing the door behind her. After a while, soft sobs could be heard in the room.
Outside the window, heavy snow fell like goose feathers, and the snowflakes fell on the roof, making a rustling sound.
…
In the sky full of snowflakes.
In the open space, a figure was flying in the wind.
It was Cheng Yiyue holding the sword.
Swish.
With one swing of his sword, he cut off more than a dozen snowflakes.
The snow on the ground also started to dance with her jumping body.
last night.
Xu Zhengdao ran to her door and said: "Miss Yiyue, Du He is getting married tomorrow. I'm afraid there will be trouble. The entire Venomous Fang manpower has been sent out. Why don't you go and help?"
Cheng Yiyue only remembered slamming the door shut and saying, "It's none of my business!"
Du He's marriage, what does it have to do with me?
But why is my heart so sad?
…
All etiquette is in place.
All the etiquette has been done.
Du He finally breathed a sigh of relief.
When other people become a consort and get married, it takes half their life, but he had to do all the etiquette twice and lost a life.
However, as he was about to enter his favorite part of the bridal chamber, he suddenly became energetic.
In his sleeve, there are a few pills.
This was something Sun Simiao secretly slipped into the car when he was rushing to Chang'an this morning.
Lao Sun only said one sentence: "Du He, marrying two princesses is not an easy task. You have to take care of yourself. This thing can help you!"
Du He understood everything!
Ugh... I, Du He, can pee three feet high in the wind, do I need this kind of thing? It is simply an insult to my character.
Du He gave the medicine directly to Chen Shuda who had been busy all day!
