Hongwu Daming: Why hasn't my son rebelled?

Chapter 111 Big Wedding: Anniversary
The welcoming team set off from the imperial city and headed towards Duke Wei's mansion in a bustling way.

The common people already knew that today is the day of His Royal Highness Liao's wedding, so they came out early in the morning to watch the excitement.

Especially the little daughters-in-law, who are looking forward to it the most. They all say that His Royal Highness Liao Wang is a descendant of the stars, and his appearance is unparalleled. Who doesn't like a handsome guy?
Seeing Zhu Qi riding a big horse and wearing red all over, the young daughters-in-law were all moistened. His Royal Highness King Liao must be too handsome.

Zhu Qina was proud of the spring, and with a smile on his face, he led the team to Duke Wei's mansion. Someone had already arranged firecrackers at the door, and they started crackling.

Although it is said that the restoration of the ancient style of the Han and Tang Dynasties was encouraged in the dynasty, since Zhu Xi redefined various etiquettes in the Song dynasty, folk marriages have gradually become more lively.

Coupled with the nearly 100-year rule of the Yuan Dynasty, under the integration of Mongolia and Han, liking for excitement has gradually become a popular custom.

As a modern person, Zhu Qi naturally didn't have the slightest resistance to excitement. After all, ordinary people who don't like excitement, especially things like marriage, in my impression, it should be lively.

In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang was born as a farmer, so he likes to be lively very much, and he will not pay too much attention to style like ordinary nobles.

This is called one, having fun with the people.

Zhu Qi came to the door and saw that the door was closed, wondering if he should stuff the red envelopes himself?

After all, it is the time of the Ming Dynasty, and the custom of stuffing red envelopes has long been mature.

Zhu Qi went to the gate and knocked, and heard a lot of talking and laughing inside, and then heard Xu Zengshou shouting:
"Your Highness, read a poem!"

Reading poetry?What poem do you read?This fucking people's representative hasn't elected me yet, so I'm going to have a dog right now?
Zhu Qizheng was confused, but an internal officer nearby came up and said in a low voice:
"Your Highness, have you prepared the reminder poem? Who does Your Highness want to congratulate?"

Zhu Qi was taken aback for a moment, and then he remembered that there was a saying that there is a poem that reminds makeup but fans poems.

The eldest brother of the prince mentioned it to himself before, saying that the third son has a brilliant literary talent, so let me prepare this poem, don't keep using the ancients, it is a bit new.

It is said that it was Zhu Yuanzhang's intention, my good fellow, do you want me to compose poems to pretend to be cowardly even after getting married?
As for who is congratulating, everyone can understand it as the host, the master of ceremonies.

But at this time, the master of ceremonies mainly reads a poem, and doesn't need to yell and say too many things, and usually finds someone who has a face.

Zhu Qi, the congratulator, had thought about it long ago, turned around and asked:
"Teacher, please be my disciple's congratulator."

Zhu Qi called out Liu Ji and Liu Bowen, of course.

Since Zhu Qi came to the Ming Dynasty, this history has changed a lot. For example, Wang Baobao is not dead now. In history, Wang Baobao should have died unexpectedly in the eighth year of Hongwu, but he is still alive and well now.

The fate of Liu Bowen was also rewritten by Zhu Qi. The original Liu Bowen in history died in the eighth year of Hongwu, and he was most likely poisoned to death by Hu Weiyong.

But throughout the eighth year of Hongwu, Liu Bowen followed Zhu Qi, and went to Beiping to dredge the sea.

Coupled with the credit for the development of antibiotics, Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude towards Liu Bowen has become much gentler.

Liu Bowen came out stroking his beard and said with a smile:
"It's better to be obedient than to be respectful, but I haven't prepared this reminder poem."

Once Zhu Qi heard Liu Bowen's words, if he, Liu Bowen, could not compose poetry, there would really be no one in the Ming Dynasty who could compose poetry.

To put it bluntly, Liu Bowen didn't want to steal his limelight, otherwise Zhu Yuanzhang would be unhappy.

Zhu Qi saw that Liu Bowen was much smoother than before. Although he didn't know why there was such a change, he was still very happy.

Only in this way can Zhu Yuanzhang live a long life if he makes Zhu Yuanzhang happy.

It will be fine if you realize it.

When the common people heard that His Royal Highness King Liao was about to start composing poems, they all started applauding.

The poetic talent of His Royal Highness King Liao is obvious to all. Although only two poems have been published so far, these two poems are the most popular and popular poems in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

Especially the song "Drinking Wine under the Flowers", which is also very popular among the people.

Knowing how to write poetry these days is the same as being able to sing in later generations. The better you write, the more famous you are, and you are no different from a star.

Zhu Qi's current position is the same as that of the traffic stars of later generations, with exposure wherever he goes.

Everyone was very happy to see the enthusiasm of the common people, and the internal officials raised their hands to signal the common people to calm down and give His Royal Highness Liao a little space.

With hands behind his back, Zhu Qi walked a few steps with a look of embarrassment, and read aloud:
"Back then I drew mandarin ducks with a smile, but now I am imitating a phoenix."

The first sentence of the opening article already has the flavor of a wedding celebration.

He took another two steps and continued to read:
"Don't let the immortals worship the queen mother, I have heard that the blue bird has reported to Liu Lang."

At the second sentence, the ethereal feeling of immortality came out immediately.

This is the group of immortals, the queen mother, and the blue bird of the beast. This one is getting married and putting on makeup, and all the gods and Buddhas are here to save face?

Moreover, this poem is very easy to understand, and the common people can understand it as soon as they hear it, it can be said to be catchy.

Needless to say, the rotten makeup reminder poems used in the past can be replaced. In the future, everyone can directly use the makeup reminder poems of His Royal Highness King Liao.

After the poem was finished, the door of Duke Wei's mansion in front of him was quickly opened.

A group of children rushed out of the door chattering, laughing and shouting loudly.

Everyone shouted differently, and Zhu Qi heard something:
"Auspicious days and good days are joyous, and the sons and grandchildren who make the bed."

"Fortune is always five, if you are happy, you will be in pairs."

"Give sugar, give sugar!"

Good guy, giving candy can be said to be very straightforward, but Zhu Qi was also happy when the children said it was festive.

Behind them, Li Jinglong, Li Qi, Zhu Di and others had already prepared sweets and snacks, and at this time they all started sending out one by one.

After passing the children's level, there are still a group of women waiting in the yard with sticks.

These are the famous killing power sticks.

Although Zhu Qi is a prince, there are still these customs and etiquette, but it is impossible to beat Zhu Qi. Most of these sticks are specially made, filled with cotton, and sewn with cloth.

Zhu Qi smiled and led a group of people into the house, and those women slammed Zhu Qi and Zhu Di and others behind him, and beat them down while laughing.

Of course, it's just a show, and it's a happy day, so you can't really beat people.

Xu Miaoyun, who was in the room, was already fully dressed and covered with a red hijab, and was supported by an aunt to the inner hall.

The internal officer led Zhu Qi into the house, and everyone hurried to follow.

I saw that the old father-in-law and mother-in-law were already waiting in the inner hall, sitting there with four cups of tea beside them.

This is of course the tea for parents.

Since Liu Bowen had already become the congratulator, he was also in charge of the host at this time, so he said some auspicious words and read a poem about honoring his parents.

Someone brought tea to Zhu Qi and the bride Xu Miaoyun who was next to him, and the two of them brought tea one by one. Xu Da and his wife also finished drinking with smiles on their faces, and said some scene words.

Then it was to pick up the bride and go home.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked Zhu Qi to use the imperial city as his new house, so he would naturally take him back to the imperial city when he returned home.

Leading Xu Miaoyun into the sedan chair, Zhu Qi also stepped onto the tall horse, and the team went all the way towards the imperial city, singing and singing.

Along the way, the common people jumped up and down, chanting a few lines of poetry for those who were knowledgeable, and some doggerel for those who were not.

The children followed along, touching the armor of the imperial guards if they were bolder, and naturally they would not be hurt.

Zhu Qina waved his hands all the way, his mouth almost stiffened with laughter, but he understood what it was like to parade in the streets.

Back in the imperial city, the man took the bride home, so naturally there were many rules.

First of all, there are several things placed at the door. The front row is full of saddles, and stepping over means safety.

The second is the brazier, which means that it is booming.

The third is a large pile of cloth bags, walking past means passing on the family line.

Anyway, on a happy day, you should celebrate everything you do.

When they arrived at the scene of the wedding ceremony, Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma had already dressed up and waited in their seats.

And just when Zhu Qi pulled Xu Miaoyun into the door and stepped through various things, Xu Da and his wife had already arrived at the scene, and they were sitting next to Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma.

Of course, although Zhu Yuanzhang likes the folk customs to be lively, the emperor and his courtiers still have to be distinguished. Xu Da and his wife sat sideways, so it is impossible to sit at the same position as the emperor and queen .

The part of the ceremony is not cumbersome, it is similar to the current retro wedding process.

There is no need to say more about the double cups of colored silk connecting the feet and the concentric knot.

The last step is to tie the hair, and the two put their hair in the sachet as a gift to each other.

Then an internal official shouted to send her to the bridal chamber, so Zhu Qi took Xu Miaoyun's hand and walked towards the bridal chamber.

In fact, it was the dormitory where Zhu Qi usually slept, and at this time, he was also dressed in a lively manner, full of festive atmosphere.

Just about to close the door, Zhu Di came over and grabbed Zhu Qi.

Zhu Qi was taken aback for a moment, then he heard Zhu Di say:

"Third brother, what are you doing in a daze, go drink!"

ah?God damn it, am I not a bridal chamber?
If it was placed in the Han and Tang Dynasties, naturally there would not be so many banquets, but this is the Ming Dynasty.

Wedding customs have changed a lot early on. The bride waits alone in the new house, and the groom has to go out to drink and reward guests.

Although Zhu Qi really wanted to hurry up with Xu Miaoyun, but Zhu Yuanzhang invited all the officials to congratulate him, so Zhu Qi squeezed Xu Miaoyun's hand and said in a low voice:

"Girl, wait for me to come back."

Xu Miaoyun hummed like a mosquito, then nodded.

Zhu Qi was about to leave when Xu Miaoyun snorted again from behind him:
"Drink less."

Zhu Qi chuckled, can you drink too much? Tonight is wedding night, how can you drink wedding candles when you are drunk?
Zhu Qina felt too uncomfortable about drinking. Although he was a cartoonist in his previous life, whether he was in college or came out to work after taking the postgraduate entrance examination, the drinking table was indispensable.

Especially those in Zhu Qi's age group, who have been inseparable from the wine table culture since childhood.

But before time travel, I heard that the new generation of young people no longer bothered to continue the wine table culture, so I don't know if it's true or not.

As soon as Zhu Qi came to the front, all the officials saw the groom coming, and one after another came to toast and congratulate.

Zhu Qi didn't refuse anyone who came, and drank cup by cup, small cups are not enough, don't drink from big bowls!
I saw His Highness Liao Wang holding the wine bowl, very bold, and poured the wine into his clothes as if he didn't want money.

That Zhu Qi's acting skills are absolutely superb, his mouth was full, and he vomited out. After drinking for a long time, he could only taste the taste of wine.

After toasting all the wine that should be toasted here, Zhu Qi made a trip to the wine table without saying a word.

Xu Zengshou immediately supported Zhu Qi and said:

"Oh, why are you so drunk, Your Highness, go back and rest quickly."

Zhu Qi blushed and said goodbye to Zhu Yuanzhang staggeringly. Zhu Yuanzhang also drank a lot. At this time, blushing and laughing, he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Empress Ma was still more sober, let Zhu Qi go back to the room to rest quickly, since he has been busy for a long time.

Only then did Zhu Qi hurriedly leave with Xu Zengshou's support, and Xu Zengshou let go of his hand when he reached the door, and said with a smile:

"Your Highness, go in and rest quickly."

He couldn't tell that His Royal Highness King Liao was pretending to be drunk, but after seeing through, he turned his head and left in a hurry.

Zhu Qi smelled the smell of alcohol all over his body, and knew that it was definitely not appropriate to go in like this.

Tell the internal officer to put some water to take a bath, and then go to the next room.

After some washing, I changed my clothes. This was probably the fastest bath ever.

In the hall next to it, the sound of ministers and workers drinking and talking could still be heard. It seemed that the wedding banquet was going to be very late this week.

But it has nothing to do with us, a moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold.

Zhu Qi walked to the door, first knocked on the door lightly, and then heard the rustling noises coming from inside, then Zhu Qi gently pushed the door open.

The candlelight of red lanterns is reflected in the hollow carved windows, and the delicate fragrance of bamboo fills the beautifully furnished houses.

A large bed with soft gauze was placed against the wall. Xu Miaoyun, who was dressed in a phoenix crown and xiabei, clasped her hands and sat on the bed wearing a hijab.

It's just that the hijab looks a little messy, obviously just put on in a hurry.

Although the bride had to wear a hijab and wait in the room, but if Xu Miaoyun could hold back and sit all the time, then Zhu Qicai would find it strange.

Zhu Qi gently walked to Xu Miaoyun's side, and slowly sat down next to Xu Miaoyun.

I felt Xu Miaoyun trembling slightly, looking very nervous.

Zhu Qi stretched out his hand to gently hold the back of Xu Miaoyun's hand, and when he heard Xu Miaoyun's breathing seemed to be a little heavy, Zhu Qi said softly:
"Don't be afraid, lady, it's me."

Xu Miaoyun nodded lightly, then hummed again like a mosquito.

Seeing that Xu Miaoyun was so nervous, Zhu Qi knew that he had to rely on himself.

He first opened Xu Miaoyun's red hijab with both hands, and saw a 16-year-old girl sitting next to him, with beautiful eyes, smiling cheeks, phoenix eyes, and cherry lips, which aroused infinite reverie.

Xu Miaoyun lowered her head even lower, her face was like the sunset glow that day.

Zhu Qi put down the tent and put it lightly on Xu Miaoyun's shoulder.

In the tent, two people lay down slowly.

As for the future, there is a poem that says:

"It's true, two love fish and water, neck and neck mandarin duck.

Dengke is unparalleled in humanity.Ask how a small bottom is stronger than a big bottom.

Fortunately, there are flowers and candles in the bridal chamber, and I get a companion who plays the flute.

To do hard work, to survive and be rich, you have to break off dandelion branches to make incense in the sky.

Come autumn also, look at Zai Ying'e's recommendation, Zai Nong Zhizhang. "
