Xiangsheng prosperous

In June of 632, the eldest princess of the Tang Empire, Tang Emperor Li Shimin and Princess Changle Li Lizhi, the direct daughter of the eldest grandson empress, officially descended to the eldest grandson's family and married Zongzheng Shaoqing and eldest grandson Chong.

On the day the princess got married, the sky was cloudless, the sun was shining, and the wind was beautiful.The common people gathered on both sides of Zhuque Street, eagerly waiting to watch the grand scene of the princess getting married.

According to the marriage process of the royal princess, after noon today, the princess's chariot will come out from the Zhuque Gate, and will go to the middle of the Zhuque Tianjie before turning into the imperial princess mansion.Although the itinerary is not long, it is also a rare opportunity for the people of Chang'an City to pay their respects to the royal majesty.

When Qin Tianjian's water-carrying armillary sphere reached the auspicious time predicted in advance, the gate of Suzaku City was rumbled open.A guard of honor consisting of 32 court ladies and eunuchs slowly walked out of the palace city carrying a pure golden princess chariot.With the movement of the guard of honor, cheers and blessings came from all around, and the crowd in the whole street almost boiled.

A woman in a dark wedding dress was sitting on a royal chariot.Her face was covered by a happy fan, but from the exposed neck skin, it can be seen that the princess's complexion is clean, delicate and fair, as smooth and noble as Tianshan white jade.Her black hair was combed neatly and tall, and she was wearing a phoenix crown inlaid with various gemstones. The phoenix crown was covered with tassels and swayed with the movement of the chariot, making her even more graceful, luxurious and elegant.

This is Li Lizhi, the eldest princess of Tang Emperor Li Shimin, Princess of Changle who just turned 13 this year.

The chariot that the princess rides on is also carefully arranged.The bottom of the chariot is laid with a thick carpet, and the walls of the chariot are carved with patterns like flying dragons and phoenixes.A spherical metal sachet hangs from the four corners of the chariot. Every time it is shaken, the sachet will make a pleasant ding-dong sound, and a fragrant fragrance like a hundred flowers blooming always permeates the entire chariot. It makes people feel happy.

The walking chariot moved very slowly, followed by six court ladies, each holding a bamboo cage covered with golden silk.Just when everyone was curious about what was contained in the bamboo cage, the ladies of the court suddenly lifted the yellow silk that covered it, which immediately aroused everyone's amazement.

Countless colorful butterflies fluttered out of the bamboo cages, circling in front, back, left, and right of the chariot.The colorful butterflies kept flying around the princess's chariot, and some of them even landed on the princess, as if waiting for the princess to call, and they refused to leave.

A quiet and elegant smile appeared on the corner of the princess's mouth. She reached out to stroke the colorful butterflies and let them surround her.

This is a very shocking and beautiful scene.

The princess's chariot walked on Suzaku Avenue surrounded by colorful butterflies. The people of Chang'an City who were standing on both sides of Tianjie and still cheering were shocked by the scene in front of them. The originally noisy and lively Tianjie , It was extremely silent for an instant.

After a long time, a voice suddenly shouted in the crowd: "This is heavenly auspiciousness! Bless me Tang!"

These words seemed to be a signal. In an instant, the crowd boiled, and the people fell to their knees and shouted loudly: "Long live my emperor, long live long live, long live Princess Changle!"

The voice of shouting long live resounded through the sky, and even Tang Emperor Li Shimin and Empress Changsun could hear it in the inner garden of the imperial city. The prestige of the Li Dynasty in the Tang Dynasty reached an unprecedented peak on this day.

"Under the door!...Pengyun Fragrance Shop has made great contributions to Jinxiang, and was promoted to a merchant specially provided by the court, and was rewarded with silver taels..."

"Under the door!...Qiu, the wife of Wen Bingde, the third son of the Wen family, is modest, honest, respectful, intelligent and virtuous, and is specially conferred the title of imperial incense maker. Fragrance shop assists Gyeonggi spice collection and co-production of new incense..."

"My concubine, thank you Lord Long En!"

Qiu Mo knelt on the ground in front of the main hall of the Wen Mansion, took the imperial decree handed to her by the eunuch Xuanzhi with both hands, and tears welled up in her eyes.

How many years of hard work, and how many years of waiting.Qiu Mo finally reached the state she dreamed of with her dedication and hard work.

She no longer needs to be controlled by others; she no longer needs to make incense secretly; most importantly, she no longer needs to hide her relationship with Pengyun Fragrance Shop from others.She can finally step into the door of the incense shop openly, and introduce her own works to the customers who taste and choose incense in the incense shop.

For this day, she has endured for eight years.

"Miss Qiu, please get up!" As soon as the eunuch Xuanzhi finished reading the content of the imperial edict, he immediately took a step forward and stretched out his hand to help Qiu Moxu up.Her husband Wen Weixing has been watching her nervously since she knelt down to listen to the announcement.As soon as she was about to get up, he had already stood beside her one step ahead, helping her to get up slowly by holding her waist.

At this time, Qiu Mo was seven months pregnant. Although she had a big belly, she was still slender, with fair cheeks, and she still looked like a girl.

She took a deep breath, calmed down her turbulent emotions, and solemnly bowed to the Xuanzhi eunuch to thank again: "Xie Aweng has worked so hard." She looked back at Shuanghan, who immediately understood and took out the A heavy purse was stuffed into the hands of the Xuanzhi eunuch.

"What's the matter, our family just did what it was supposed to do." The eunuch smiled, "Then our family will stay here soon, and we have to go back to the palace to report to the Holy One. Mrs. Qiu is very healthy, and our family is still waiting to drink warm water." What about San Lang Zhier's full moon wine, haha."

Wen Weixing looked at Qiu Mo's blushing little face lovingly, and said happily to the eunuch Xuanzhi. "At that time, we must invite Ah Weng to have a drink!"

The eunuch Xuanzhi smiled and nodded, without saying anything, he bowed his hands to everyone in the Wen residence, then turned his head and left.

After watching the eunuch go away, Wen Weixing supported Qiu Mo and walked carefully into the main hall of Wen's residence.

In the main hall of Wen's mansion, all members of Wen's family gathered together, smiling at this Saburo's daughter-in-law who had just been conferred by the royal family.

"Mo'er, why don't you ask Bingde to accompany you back to your room for a while. You kneel together, your stomach is so sharp and big, it makes my heart ache..." Mrs. Qiao walked up quickly Qian took Qiu Mo's other arm and said distressedly.

Mrs. Wei, the eldest brother Wen Zhen's wife, smiled and said: "Mother-in-law, I think the third sibling's baby is probably a big fat boy. This belly shape is not exactly what I had when I gave birth. Our Wen family is going to have another baby." Now, with the reward from Mo'er, it's double happiness!"

Everyone laughed loudly after hearing this.Qiu Mo gently stroked her big belly and laughed too.

Wen Weixing couldn't bear it anymore, and finally interjected: "Ms. Aye, brother and sister-in-law, I will accompany Mo'er back to the room first. Now she will have a back pain after standing for a long time, and then she will probably be overwhelmed after a while."

"Okay, then hurry up and take Mo'er back to your room to rest. If Mo'er wants to eat, you can tell the housekeeper right away, and let the kitchen be ready and sent to your yard." Mrs. Qiao urged.

Wen Weixing nodded, and helped Qiu Mo back to his room.

※※※※※

On the way back to their own house, Qiu Mo and Wen Weixing talked a lot while walking.Recently, Wen Weixing's father's health has been getting worse and worse. Although his sleep condition has improved under the conditioning of Qiu Qianqing, Qiu Shirong and Qiu Mo, Wen Yanbo still feels physically and mentally uncomfortable due to the heavy government affairs and the confrontation with Wei Xuancheng in the court. Exhausted, some of the roots of the disease that had been tortured by the captives in the past began to flare up again.

Wen Weixing also felt very helpless about Aye's physical condition, but he had no choice but to trust the Qiu family's medical skills and try his best to help his father with his elder brother in government affairs.

Qiu Mo saw that Wen Weixing's expression was downcast, so she held his hand and said softly, "I'll make some lily mung bean soup tonight, you can bring some to Madam Aye."

"If you let the empress know that I still let you cook, I'm afraid you will give me a slap in the face." Wen Weixing shook his head and said with a smile.

Qiu Mo also laughed when she heard that, now Mrs. Qiao regards her as the most precious treasure of the Wen family, she is really holding her in her hand for fear of falling, and holding her in her mouth for fear of melting.If Wen Weixing really brought a bowl of soup to his father and said that Qiu Mo cooked it himself, Mrs. Qiao might really do such a thing as giving him a slap in the face.

He held Qiu Mo's hand and continued to walk forward: "Mo'er, Uncle He came to look for me yesterday and said that Yan's Trading Company came to discuss with him about the renewal of the franchise after the expiration of the franchise next year. He said that he has not responded yet, Also want to see your thoughts. What do you think?"

Qiu Mo frowned and thought for a while and said, "Yan's Trading Company is unscrupulous in their actions. If I hadn't been forced to help them, how could I have been willing to cooperate with them? Now Pengyun Fragrance Shop is an imperial merchant, and is on an equal footing with them in terms of status. I was appointed as the eighth-rank imperial incense maker again, and I no longer have to worry about others criticizing my profession. Now that I have taken the lead, I naturally don't want to continue to cooperate with them. It's just..."

She paused, raised her eyes to stare at Wen Weixing, and said softly, "Yan Zhengchang is cunning, I'm afraid something will happen after he refuses to renew the contract..."

"You can raise your baby with peace of mind. Uncle He and I will discuss it." Wen Weixing patted his chest and said, "I just want you to feel at ease, and I will take care of other troublesome matters."

Qiu Mo nodded, leaned in his arms, and closed her eyes happily.
