The general's wife through time

Chapter 351 Wedding ()

On the other side, on the official road from southern Xinjiang to the capital, people and horses were galloping at lightning speed, and dust filled the sky wherever they passed.

"Great. Let's go faster so that the lychees will still be fresh when we arrive at the Saint's Mansion." Immediately, Qin Mingqi patted the two sacks on the saddle and smiled happily.

The matter in southern Xinjiang finally came to an end. Not only could he return to Beijing to see his eldest sister-in-law, but he could also watch her marry his eldest brother. He was so happy that he didn't sleep for several days.

On the horse behind him, Mu Xian was holding Si Fangyun's hand and talking incoherently with excitement. No one knew what he was saying.

On another horse, Qin Mingshu and Li Changle held each other's hands and could only smile foolishly. They had never imagined that they would be able to hold a wedding with their elder brother and sister-in-law, on such a meaningful day and with such a grand wedding.

On the two horses in front, Duan Jingchen and Wu An both had dark faces, and their expressions were as ugly as they could be.

Wu An: "It's not me who asked His Majesty to grant me the marriage, so what's the use of you being mean to me?"

Duan Jingchen: "If you hadn't been making trouble, why would I have anything to do with you?"

"Hey, you have to be responsible for what you say. If you hadn't followed me every day, would there have been any misunderstandings between us? If there hadn't been any misunderstandings, why would His Majesty have granted us the marriage? So, everything started with you!"

"I will ask Your Majesty to revoke your order when I return to the capital!"

"Thank you, but you'd better hurry up, otherwise it will be your wedding day when you arrive in the capital. Don't be too late and delay your pursuit of freedom."

……

On the 15th day of August, the weather is clear and cool, and the sweet osmanthus is fragrant.

Early in the morning, Emperor Jing Kang came to the imperial study, and finally did some calculations, overjoyed. "Haha, I collected the money from the five families and asked the Ministry of Rites to organize a collective wedding. This will save 50,000 taels of silver. When winter comes, this money will be taken to the northern border, which will be enough for the Qin family army there to have a few good meals and gain weight to survive the winter."

Li Chongyang entered the palace before dawn today. He originally wanted to talk to His Majesty before the collective wedding to cheer him up, but he suddenly discovered that his Majesty had found new fun.

He secretly thought: When I get married with Zhui Guang in the future, I must not let His Majesty know in advance, otherwise all the gifts from the families who come to the banquet will be confiscated by His Majesty.

Perhaps it was telepathy, but Emperor Jing Kang suddenly raised his head and instructed his old Li: "Everyone in the Ministry of Rites is busy today, remember to watch over those who come to congratulate you. Forget about the gifts, but if the gifts are silver notes, please help me keep them. If you work hard, maybe we can solve the problem of winter clothing for the Qin army in the north this year."

Li Chongyang: “…”

His dear Majesty, can you accept this money?

Early in the morning, when Li Changle and the others were called into the palace for rehearsal, the entire capital was decorated with lights and colors. From the beginning to the end of East Street, Qin Mingyuan and his men occupied the entire place.

Although it was a group wedding, it did not affect Qin Mingyuan's going to the Saint Maiden's Mansion to pick up his bride before the wedding.

Qin Mingyuan, dressed in wedding clothes, rode on a horse, feeling refreshed, and walked around the capital.

Qin Mingqi and his men followed behind him, holding a hundred large red sacks, and went door to door to scatter copper coins and distribute wedding candies.

Xiaobai had a big red bow made by Aunt Yu on her head, a gold ingot hanging around her neck, and a bright red cloak on her face, watching the fun from the side.

Anyway, Tang's father is a local tycoon, he is so rich that he can't walk away. Everyone must give a red envelope. Everyone knows that it is a sin for mom and dad to get married today.

There was a big red flower tied around the Teng Snake's neck, which contrasted sharply with its skin color. It coiled on top of the Wangong sedan chair, opened its eyes, and looked around quietly. On its forehead was written: "Exclusively for the owner, no strangers allowed."

Qingxin held the marriage certificate in his arms and refused to let anyone touch it. He had heard that it was carved bit by bit from black lipped oyster shells on the ocean-going ship when King Wuwei conquered South Vietnam and returned home. The gold base was used and it was hammered by hand. Every knock represented the promise between King Wuwei and the princess for three lifetimes. After returning, the princess almost found it. It was King Wuwei who was smart and put it in a box and said it was not finished, so it could be hidden until today.

Countless people were staring at the team, and under the leadership of Liu Gu and Wu Xie, they all made envious noises.

"The Wangong sedan chair, that was the most time-consuming. It is said that the carvings on it were made by King Wuwei himself, and the crabapple flower representing Xue Tang's name was specially carved. It can be seen that King Wuwei has long wanted to marry Xue Tang again." "Also, didn't you see the marriage certificate held by the little kid named Qingxin in front of the sedan chair?"

"Saint Xue Tang deserves to be treated so kindly by King Wuwei. It is King Wuwei's great fortune to marry such a legitimate wife."

"King Wuwei is so kind! If I could marry him, I would die without regrets."

I don't know who said this, but the crowd fell silent for a moment.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the little girl who was speaking.

Liu Gu was wearing a pink long-sleeved dress, waving a bunch of big red flowers in her hand and walked over. She smiled contemptuously, "You'd better give up this idea. The marriage between King Wuwei and the Princess was granted by the imperial decree. The imperial decree clearly states that they will be a couple for life. There will be no divorce in this life, only widowhood. Our princess is half a fairy, she will definitely live a hundred years, so even if she is widowed, it's... cough cough cough, I won't say anything unlucky, so, it's not suitable for you to appear in such a festive occasion today, go back and take a shower and go to bed, you may even have a good dream of getting married."

With Liu Gu, Wu Xie and others clearing the way, Qin Mingyuan quickly left the city and headed straight to the Saint Maiden's Palace smoothly.

The Saint's Palace.

Xue Tang finished washing up and changed into her bright red wedding dress.

The wedding dress was perfectly embellished with petals made of black pearls. Each pearl was sewn by Qin Mingyuan himself. There were not many of them, but they made the wedding dress even more eye-catching.

Xue Tang sat in front of the dressing table and let Nanny Wang do her makeup.

Although Nanny Wang was not of high status, she had many children and grandchildren, so Xue Tang asked Nanny Wang to be the perfect Nanny.

Nanny Wang picked up the hairpins and rings and put them on Xue Tang's bun one by one, making Xue Tang feel that her head was heavy.

Nanny Wang couldn't help but laugh and said, "Every pearl and flower jewelry is made by the prince. This is probably unprecedented and will never be seen again in Dajing. It's really enviable."

The old lady of the Si family sat on one side, smiling so hard that her teeth were showing. "It's Qin Xiao's job to marry such a good wife."

At the moment when the sound of firecrackers rang out outside the gate, the Saint's Mansion welcomed an uninvited guest.

"Duan Jingchen?" Seeing the man who suddenly appeared at the door, Xue Tang was surprised and asked, "Aren't you getting married today too? Why are you here?"

Nanny Wang, who was dressing Xue Tang, exclaimed. Oh my God, the head of the Duan family came in a bright red wedding dress. The princess is so nice that someone came to snatch the bride in broad daylight!
Qin Mingyue suddenly jumped out from nowhere and blocked Xue Tang's way, "Don't do anything bad to my sister-in-law!"

"Since Master Duan has chosen to come here at this time, he must have something urgent. Let's go out first and let Miss Xue Tang solve it herself." The old lady of the Si family was knowledgeable and led the maids and nannies in the room out.

Looking at Xue Tang's clothes, Duan Jingchen couldn't help but feel a lemon in his stomach. "Did Qin Mingyuan make all these? I can't believe that guy is really good at coaxing women."

Xue Tang raised his eyebrows and nodded calmly, "Qin Mingyuan, very good."

"You really don't want to consider me?"

Xue Tang's brows were stern, "Master Duan, I don't like to drag things out. I think I have made it very clear before. You should know that I have always been decisive and rarely change my plans. The same is true for getting married now. I will do it as soon as I think about it. You'd better not disturb me."

Duan Jingchen smiled bitterly, "Okay, then for the sake of our fate in this life and the past, let me carry you on my back to get married."

Duan Jingchen was her comrade-in-arms in her previous life. If he didn't always like to do some weird things in this life, he could be considered a brother. Xue Tang blinked and was about to agree when she heard a bang and the door was kicked open from the outside.

Qin Mingyuan stood at the door, glaring at Duan Jingchen, "If you want to carry my princess on your back, you have to get past me first!"

Seeing the two of them go to the backyard, Xue Tang knew that they would definitely compete with each other, so she let them do as they pleased and calmly said to the person outside the door, "Madame Wang, continue to dress up."
