Poor children

Chapter 116 Getting Married
一
Although the time in the palace passed uncomfortably, it was fast. In a blink of an eye, it was time for the poor boy to get married.
In order not to delay the auspicious time of the trip, the poor girl got up to dress up before dawn. Needless to say, the wedding clothes prepared by the royal family were extremely luxurious.

It was probably the first time in Princess Zhihui's life that she had to accompany a poor child to dress up so early. Naturally, she cried and cried with great reluctance.

Seeing that Dongfang was a little confused, the adults from the Ministry of Rites went outside the palace gate to urge him to leave. So the eldest princess Zhihui took the poor boy with her and they walked into the courtyard. They saw a person standing in the courtyard, and it was no one else. It was Aunt Gui. She must have been standing in the yard for a long time. When she saw the poor boy coming out, she knelt down and kowtowed to the poor boy from a distance. When she got up, she turned around and left. The poor boy understood what he meant. She didn't say much. When she came outside Changle Palace, she just told the eldest princess not to give it away anymore. Zhihui was extremely reluctant to give it away, but it was inconvenient to give it away again. After all, it was against the rules.
So he said goodbye to the eldest princess Zhihui outside the gate of Changle Palace, and the poor boy walked out of the palace on foot.

Outside the palace gate, the wedding procession was already ready to go. The general Fang Shaoqin, who was bringing the wedding, had been waiting at the palace gate for a long time. Huang Mufeng, the general, was accompanying him. At this moment, he saw the poor man walking out of the palace, in front of Fang Shaoqin. stop

Fang Shaoqin and Huang Mufeng hurriedly knelt down to say hello
Lai Bao helped the poor boy step down and pushed him out. The poor boy quickly helped Fang Shaoqin up and said, "Uncle, get up quickly. Stop kneeling."

"You didn't even call me senior brother today," Fang Shaoqin whispered.

"Today the poor boy is getting married, and my uncle is giving me a gift. Naturally, I have to treat him as a family member," the poor boy said.

Fang Shaoqin smiled and patted Paoer's arm.
"Brother Tiedan'er" Pao'er helped Huang Mufeng stand up again
"Your Highness Princess," Tiedan'er called with cupped hands, "Today you are getting married, I will send you off to my brother, don't worry."

"That's it, thank you brother"

"I pay my respects to the Queen, and may my lord live forever, and may the Queen live a thousand years." At this time, an old man was kneeling under the stone steps to say hello. Although he looked quite old, his voice was loud and his face was full of energy.

"This!?" The poor man didn't know this person, so he was a little confused.

Fang Shaoqin hurriedly said, "This old man is an important minister in the northwest and a hero of three dynasties, Old Prime Minister Han. The old Prime Minister is here to welcome you to the court in person."

Hearing this, the poor man quickly walked down the stone steps and helped Old Prime Minister Han up. "Old Prime Minister, please get up quickly. You are so virtuous and respected, how can this poor man deserve to kneel down from you?"

"Your Majesty's words are serious. I have been greatly favored by the third generation of His Majesty, and I will do my best without any hesitation." Old Prime Minister Han said, "Please invite your Majesty to get in the car. Don't miss this good moment."

"Okay!" the poor man responded, "I wonder which carriage the old prime minister is taking?"

"Your Majesty, the veteran's chariot and horse are following closely behind."

"Then I will send Prime Minister Han to the carriage first..." After saying this, the poor man helped the old Prime Minister towards the carriage.
Prime Minister Han hurriedly said that he "dare not" but could not defeat the poor man, so he had no choice but to go with the poor man.
"Prime Minister Han is kind to me, and he is an elder. Both the king and I will respect you more. Prime Minister, please don't be afraid and just accept it with peace of mind." The poor man said to Prime Minister Han as he walked.
Old Prime Minister Han has gone through so many things, how can there be anyone he has never met?It's just that people today really make him a little confused, but the poor man's words are so pertinent, which really moves him very much.

Seeing that the old Prime Minister Han had settled down properly, the poor boy turned around and came back and told Fang Shaoqin to take good care of the old Prime Minister along the way, so he must not neglect

Seeing that Fang Shaoqin agreed, he and Laibao got into his car.
When the two wedding generals saw that everything was arranged, they walked to the front of the team and mounted their horses. The chief of ceremonies loudly said, "The auspicious time has come, let's set off! May the princess be safe!" The group then headed out of the city in a mighty manner...

The carriage is very spacious, even desks and beds are placed inside. Seasonal fruits and vegetables, food, tea and drinks are all available. In order to show the style of the Central Plains, naturally no one should be careless.

"It's a thousand-mile journey, people my age don't think it's right. I don't know why the Northwest sent such an old man to welcome the bride. How can his bones bear it?" Laibao helped the poor child off his head and body. while talking about the wedding dress

"Although the old prime minister looks old, his body is not weak. When I helped him, I felt worried and took his pulse. It was strong and powerful, and there seemed to be a looming inner energy. He was absolutely extraordinary, even compared to you and me. They are all better, so there is no need to worry so much," the poor man said as he took off the jade bracelet on his wrist.

"Is he a master?" Laibao's eyes lit up when he heard that the old prime minister was practicing martial arts.

"In my opinion, it is possible. It's just a little weird, but I can't say what's weird about it. Don't try it out and hurt yourself again," Pao'er warned.
"Is he that powerful?" Noble pondered, "Why did he come?"

"The old prime minister is highly respected. His coming here means that the entire northwest dynasty attaches great importance to me. I appreciate it very much." Paoer walked to the edge of the collapse and sat down. He motioned to Laibao to sit down and rest too.
"Sister said so. It seems that the Northwest King is indeed sincere, but I don't know what kind of person he is. According to rumors, he is a very cruel person."

"It doesn't matter who he is. Once he was an emperor, he had many wives and concubines. I just keep a low profile and don't provoke him. He may not necessarily want me. Wouldn't it be better to live a peaceful life?" Paoer smiled and leaned on the quilt.

"You said you can't see me if you can't see me? My sister is so beautiful, I'm afraid she will be jealous of her." Laibao also took advantage of the situation and lay down on the couch.
"You know a lot at your young age. If I don't fight, who will be jealous? As long as you live a peaceful life and don't cause trouble," the poor man sat up and stroked Laibao's hair. "Especially you, Don't be so impulsive when you go to the northwest, and actually go to war with the Queen Mother. If we cause trouble there again, how will we end it? After all, this is where we will live permanently, have you remembered it?"

"I've written it down, I've written it down..." Laibao responded repeatedly.
"Chengzhe will also go back to the northwest in a few days. When you have free time, go find him to relax and save you from causing trouble."
"Of course that's good..." Lai Bao said, "We can also go to Taixu Taoist Temple. The old Taoist Master will definitely be happy to see us."

"Well! You should be happy to see me, but not necessarily..."

"Why?"

"You're either trying to hurt him secretly, or you're robbing him of his money. It's true that he's a little frightened every time he sees you." Paoer laughed.

"Then the old Taoist priest wants to eat and drink, and his money is of no use if he keeps it with him. What if he can still take it to the coffin for a hundred years? If I rob it and use it, why don't I help him? Why don't you understand me? Where's the hard work?" Laibao complained.
"You are the only one who has many lies..." Pao'er said with a smile, "For lunch later, you go ask Old Prime Minister Han to come to our car and we can eat together."

"Oh!" Laibao responded. "What do you want to eat? I'll prepare it first."

"Prepare some soft and easy to digest. He doesn't intend to let people know that he has deep inner strength. Let's just treat him as an ordinary old man. You must not show any signs. This journey will take some time. I want to learn from this old man. The Prime Minister knows a lot about the Northwest Dynasty..."
