The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1063 Wedding (1)

After all, the relatives and friends who came to congratulate Xi wanted to attend weddings, banquets, and watch singing and dancing in Qinglu, and the venue was not big enough, so how could it be possible?

The green house is connected to the front yard. Not only is the venue large and magnificent, but also a high platform specially used for performances is built. The high platform is built in the center, and seats will be arranged around it.

The mansion of the Hou Mansion in Dongshan County is busy, and the palace is also busy, especially preparing the dowry.

Princess Jinyang got married, and from the palace to Zhuangzishang, Li Ke led the Xuanjia Army along the way, guarding at three steps, one post, five steps and one post, and the Imperial Forest Army was responsible for opening the way and laying behind.

In the middle are people from the Ministry of Rites, and a group of maids and women who will all enter the princess' mansion in the future.

In front of the bride's chariot is the maid, and behind it is the dowry.

November [-]th, such a long time of preparation is all for this day. Although Master Xuanzang is a dazzling existence in Chang'an City, he is very smart to avoid this day. The temple brought a group of monks to translate scriptures.

On the night before the wedding, both men and women should read the "sacrifice to the ancestors" in their respective temples, and tell their ancestors about their children's marriage, in order to bless them. , the son will reply: "We dare not resign."

It's just that Xuan Shijing's father is no longer here, so Wang Shi naturally informed him of this.

And in the Xuan family's ancestral temple, there is only Xuan Mingde.

Things in the palace were much more complicated. Long after Jinyang and Xuan Shijing got engaged, the Ministry of Rites planned on a good day. His Majesty Li Er and Empress Changsun chose an auspicious day to go to the ancestral temple to offer sacrifices. .

After all, it is the nobles of the Tian family, the more complicated it is, the more high-end it looks, isn't it.

Early the next morning, Xuan Shijing was dragged out of the warm bed by the mother-in-law, and pressed in front of the vanity mirror like a puppet, to do most of Xuan Shijing's makeup.

She was dressed in a bright red wedding dress, and she was covered with a red fur coat. After all, it was winter and the weather was cold, so she wore thick clothes.

"Master Hou, you have to cheer up, today is your day of great joy." The woman said while dressing up Xuan Shijing.

"Enen." Xuan Shijing replied twice.

The lack of energy is really not because I have any opinions on the wedding, but because I am too tired to prepare for a wedding!

The mother-in-law who followed God was about to poke Xuan Shijing on the head with a big red flower that he didn't know where to get, but Xuan Shijing hurriedly stopped it.

"There's no need for this thing." She smiled awkwardly and dismissed the old woman's thoughts.

After eating a few mouthfuls of cakes in a hurry, Xuan Shijing rode on the horse and led the people to Chang'an.

Last night, I was so excited about getting married, I fell asleep almost at dawn, but I was woken up by my mother-in-law just after I fell asleep.
Qin Huaiyu, Li Chongji, Li Tai and others, as Xuan Shijing's best man, lived in Zhuangzi the night before, but they didn't live in the house, but found an inn in Fangshi, and picked a Live in a luxuriously decorated room, anyway, Xuan Shijing will be reimbursed, live in such an inn, and go out for a stroll at night, how nice
The main reason is that their minds are not on the inn, but on those pretty girls.

It’s not easy to come out, right? It must be fun and experience.

Early in the morning, the brothers also got up early, packed up, and followed Xuan Shijing towards Chang'an City.

The welcoming team also brought a lot of money, all of which were brand new copper coins. count.

Some people scattered more copper coins than the gift of the car, but the money was scattered, and wherever it went, there were singing and dancing, which was not helpful.

It can be seen that "welcome in person" is very extravagant.

Today, Xuan Shijing was a money-spreading boy, and the wedding team pulled two big carts with only copper coins. It is estimated that there are more than 6 to [-] yuan. After all, people still have to sit in the cart.

Before the betrothal gifts were so ostentatious, how could they be stingy when it came time to welcome the bride.

"Brothers, when you arrive at Chang'an City, don't be too polite, open the door and throw money. The money is in the carriage behind. When you arrive at Zhuque Street, take the carriage and throw money vigorously. It's not bad!" Xuan Shijing laughed. road.

"Come on, don't worry, the brothers have no other skills, but the ability to throw money is definitely one of the best in Chang'an City." Li Chongyi laughed.

Apart from the three brothers, Cheng Chubi from the Cheng family also arrived, plus Fang Yiai and Marshal Zhao, there are six people in total, and there is a prince among them, it must be enough.

When I left Zhuangzi's archway early in the morning, I saw the Xuanjia army on both sides of the road, and Li Ke rode a tall horse in front.

"His Royal Highness King Wu." Xuan Shijing cupped his hands.

"Today is Xiao Jing's big day, so my brother will defend Xiao Jing." Li Ke said boldly.

"Okay, thank you, Your Highness, when we get back to Zhuangzi, His Highness will also accept the team, just come over for a drink." Xuan Shijing cupped his hands and said in return.

"I'm going to bother you."

After the greetings, Xuan Shijing led the team and left Zhuangzi's territory slowly.

Calculated from this, the older princes like Li Tai and Li Ke can still be regarded as Xuan Shijing's righteous brothers.

The welcoming team walked for an hour and a half before arriving at Chang'an. Entering through Mingde Gate, the straight and wide Zhuque Avenue was already full of people watching the excitement.

Before Dongshan Hou sent a betrothal gift so flamboyantly, many people were naturally full of curiosity about his marriage.

"Brothers, it's up to you." Xuan Shijing turned around with a smile on his face.

"Okay." Li Chongyi shouted, and the six bridesmaids jumped off their horses, got on the two carts behind, and in groups of three, opened the boxes on the carts, revealing the shining copper coins.

It's all new money!

Seeing the battle, the people on both sides of the road naturally guessed what they were going to do, and they all cheered. The mountains roared and the tsunami could be heard throughout Chang'an City.

"Young Master Hou will live a hundred years, and you will live forever!"

"I wish Lord Hou and His Royal Highness the Princess a happy life together! Many sons, many blessings!"

"To grow old together, to have a precious son early!"

Who doesn't like to hear a good word?Especially on this happy day.

"Well said!" Xuan Shijing shouted: "Reward!"

Immediately afterwards, the team drove forward slowly, and the two carriages kept throwing copper coins at the people on both sides.

The three bridesmaids stood on the cart, grabbed a handful of copper coins from the box, and threw them out.

Feeling that Yang was not enough, he picked up a handful with both hands and threw them out. Some of the people on both sides of Zhuque Street stretched out their hands to catch the copper coins, some wrapped them in their robes, and most of them squatted down and scattered them on the ground. Pick up the copper coins.
