Chapter 88

The crown prince carried his wife, just a formality.

Zhao Ning'er's Crown Princess's phoenix sedan has been parked directly in the middle hall of the Zhao family.

Zhu Yunqi walked out with Zhao Ning'er on his back, walking cautiously. It was not that Zhao Ning'er was heavy, she was just slightly plump, but that Zhao Ning'er was timid, and Zhu Yunqi couldn't stand the strength on his back.

The ritual official led the two to the central hall.

To raise the sedan chair for the Grand Princess! Just after the ritual officer finished shouting, several palace servants kneeling beside the sedan chair and had already pulled the curtain open.

You go up! Zhu Yunxiu's arms were supported by his wife on his back.

Just after crossing a threshold, Zhu Yunyu looked up and happened to meet Zhao Sili and his wife, with concern.

It is pitiful to the parents in the world. Even if their daughter is the most noble woman in the world in the future, they still feel reluctant and unable to let go.

Zhao's mother's eyes were red when she cried, Zhao Sili's eyes were red and she forced a smile.

Don't worry, I will treat her well! Under the surprised gaze of the ritual officer and others, Zhu Yunxiu said something that seemed to be inconsistent with the law of etiquette. In the past, you treated him like a treasure, and in the future I would treat her like a treasure. She married me not to separate from you, but from now on, there is another person who loves her in this world!

As he said that, Zhu Yunxi nodded slightly to the Zhao family, father-in-law and mother-in-law, I will take her away first, and when I return to the door in a few days, I will take her back!

In an instant, Zhao's mother burst into tears, and Zhao Sili bowed and bowed.

Suddenly, Zhu Yunxiu felt a chill on his neck, and there seemed to be a teardrop falling on it.

Wife, go up, I can't bear it anymore! Zhu Yunsheng smiled.

He put his hands naturally around his neck, making his back less forceful.

Zhu Yunxiu held up his arm and smiled and said, "Old girl, it's quite heavy!"

Then, Zhao Ning'er fell into the sedan chair, and the ceremonial officer shouted, "Get up the sedan chair!"

Then a total of sixteen strong palace men in brocade uniforms lifted up the phoenix sedan chair and walked slowly. In order to get in the phoenix sedan chair, the Zhao family demolished the wall a few days ago and temporarily built a gate.

In front of the phoenix sedan, the two uncles, King Qin and King Jin, were holding the sedan bar.

Behind the sedan chair, there were Duke Xu Huizu of Wei and Duke Cao Li Jinglong accompanied him.

The bride-welcoming team set out from the Zhao family, walked around the Wumen Gate and passed through the East Chang'an Gate, then passed through the Chengtian Gate, which represents the will of Shuncheng, entered the Donghua Gate, passed through the three halls of the outer court, and passed through the Zuohou Gate and the East Palace, and reached the Jingren Hall of the East Palace.

The sedan chair stopped, and the palace servants came over with feather fans, curtains and other objects, protecting Zhao Ning'er's phoenix sedan, and preparing to invite the grandmother concubine to fall into the sedan chair.

The two of them walked slowly forward, and wherever they passed, all officials bowed and walked to the hall. At this time, the sky had dimmed slightly, and there were thousands of lights in the Forbidden City, and the colorful lights were intertwined into gorgeous lights, as if they were in a fairyland.

Zhu Yunxi and Zhao Ning'er stopped in front of the hall gate. After being bowed by the ministers, they slowly entered the hall to hold the last wedding ceremony and a ceremony. (jin)

The ritual of the ritual originated from the Zhou Dynasty and the ancient ritual of the Han people. The ritual is a bitter gourd, divided into two, and each couple holds one piece and holds a fine wine. The gourd originally means auspiciousness, and one piece is divided into two means the two bodies of the couple. The two gourds are wearing silk threads under it, which means that the couple is combined into one. Drinking a slightly bitter wine means that the couple share the same joys and sorrows.

In this ceremony, there were only the couple, no one else, and not even the old man.

Zhu Yunyu was the crown prince. On the day of the crown prince’s wedding, the emperor did not show up and could only enjoy his visit with the crown prince’s concubine the next day.

Not only the royal family, but also the same is true among the people. The Ming Dynasty inherited the Tang rituals, and the custom of bowing to parents in the lobby on the day of marriage was a ritual in the Northern Song Dynasty. Before the Tang Dynasty, traditional etiquette was the second day when we met our parents-in-law.

The incense in the hall is slightly scattered, and the magnificence brings a pleasant tranquility.

Zhu Yunxiu and Zhao Ning'er slowly entered the bright red palace, and under the guidance of the ritual officer, they knelt face to face under the red candle.

The palace servants were gentle, and the gourd, wine, food and other things were ready.

The ritual official sang, bow!

Zhao Ning'er bows first and four times.

Zhu Yunxi returned the gift and bowed twice.

This is a solemn gift, even the crown prince must treat his legitimate wife with courtesy. Although the two have different identities, the husband and wife are in the family.

After worshiping, the palace servant offered two pieces. The two of them took a slice on one side, and then drank the slightly bitter wine. After drinking, Zhu Yunyu turned his wrist and turned half of the gourd in his hand to reconcile the mind and yin and yang.

Later, the palace servant knelt down and ate the meat, and the name was the same as the priest. The three meats of pig, cattle and mutton were Tailao. The couple ate together, which means that the two will not be separated from each other in the future. Because in ancient times, except for their wives, men and anyone who had dinner were divided, and only those with their wives could eat the same dish together.

Together with one's dedication, be courteous.

On the side, the red candle burst out with dazzling sparks, and a jade hook was placed in Zhu Yunxi's hand.

Your Highness, you are hiding! After the palace maid finished speaking in a low voice, he slowly retreated, leaving only the turtle-shamed person.

The hall was quiet, with only the sound of sparks jumping. Even through the veil, Zhu Yunqi could feel the tension of the beauty opposite.

Lift your veil.........

Well, Zhu Yunyu was also nervous. Marriage events can only be once in his life, and these etiquettes can only be held with his legitimate wife. In the future, no matter whether he has other concubines or not, the girl in front of him is destined to be the one who will accompany him for the rest of his life.

His hands trembled slightly, and he gently hooked under the veil.

With a swish, the veil flew up like a red cloud, and under the candlelight, his face was like a flower.

Zhao Ning'er closed her eyes tightly, her round face was tense, but she was so nervous that the dimples on her cheeks moved slightly.

She had a light makeup, and although she didn't look so gorgeous, she was amiable. Under the candlelight, her fair skin was delicate and her narrow eyelashes moved.

Open your eyes! Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "How can you see me if you don't open your eyes?"

Zhao Ning'er obviously struggled inside, quietly opened one eye, closed her head lowered.

I still remember the first time I met you, you called me my little father-in-law! Zhu Yunsheng smiled and said, "What should I call me now?"

Your Highness! Zhao Ning'er moaned.

This name is not good, I will teach you a name. When there is no one in the future, you will just call me alone! As he said that, Zhu Yunqiu slowly moved forward.

Well! A faint strange noise suddenly came from the side.

Zhu Yunxi turned his head and frowned, why are you still here?

The turtle was kneeling down and prostrated to the ground. Your Highness, before he was born, I dared not go down!

Before the bridal chamber, there is another last step, the hair is thawed.

Zhu Yunyu took the silver scissors and gently cut off a strand of Zhao Ning'er's hair, and Zhao Ning'er also cut off a few Zhu Yunyu's hair.

Then, the two of them tangled the hair together, and formed a husband and wife.

~~~~~~

The palace was brightly lit and there was joy everywhere.

But the old man always feels that something seems to be missing in this joy.

It was getting late, and the old man walked in the gorgeous lights with his hands on his back. As he walked, he walked unconsciously to the harem of the Forbidden City, in front of Kunning Palace.

Although there are ribbons and red lanterns hanging on the palace gate, there is no popularity in the palace, and it is even quieter without a trace of sound.

Kunning Palace, the palace where Queen Ma lived during her lifetime.

(In the Forbidden City, the six palaces in the east and west are all living in concubines regardless of grade. The queen of the Ming Dynasty lives in Kunning Palace, so it is called the Central Palace. In the Ming Dynasty, there are also examples of concubines living in Kunning Palace, which comes from Zhujiaqing.)

The old man stopped in front of the palace for a long time, then raised his foot in.

When he arrived at the door, he seemed a little hesitant and wanted to push the door, but his arm stopped. Then he seemed to have made up a lot of determination and pushed open the palace door that had been covered with dust for a long time.

With a creaking sound, the hall door opened. Red candles were also lit inside, decorating them. However, no one had lived in the hall for a long time, and it seemed very deserted.

The old man walked inside, his fingers swiped across the stool, and after seeing that there was no dust, he nodded and sat down with satisfaction.

He is very familiar with the scene here. All the decorations are the same as before, still in the old place, still the same. On the west is Queen Ma’s bedroom during her lifetime, and on the east side is the outer hall. The palace where the queen lived was not particularly magnificent.

In the corner, there was a spinning wheel, and the linen clothes that Queen Ma wore during her lifetime were hanging on the wall.
