I am the carpenter king

141 The Big Wedding 3

()Where is the busiest place in Beijing?Some people say Dongcheng, some people say Nancheng, but at this moment, the most lively place is the gate of Zhang's house.

The welcoming team had already arrived, and everyone in the Zhang family was waiting at the door, kneeling on the ground to welcome the welcoming team.The team slowly came to the door of Zhang's house, and lined up on both sides along the street, revealing the emissary Liu Yijing holding the imperial edict in the middle.

Without exchanging too many pleasantries, Liu Yijing read the sealed edict again. Amidst the sound of drums, the bearers of Jinyiwei carried the Empress Liyu and the Dragon Pavilion into the front yard, and then the eunuchs carried them to the "embroidered building" in the backyard. Before parking, park according to the "auspicious orientation" designated by the officials of the Qin Tianjian.The eldest lady of the Zhang family, wearing a queen's dress and a phoenix coronet, made a shining appearance, knelt down to receive the gold book and gold treasure, and went back to the "lounge" to wait for the auspicious time.

As soon as the auspicious time comes, the bride Zhang Yansheng will drive away.The troops of the brigade pass through the front gate, walk along the imperial road, pass through the Daming gate, enter the **, Duan gate, and arrive at the Meridian gate.The team entered the Forbidden City from the central opening of the Meridian Gate, passed through the Taihe Gate, and arrived at the Qianqing Gate.The queen entered the gate of Qianqing with a guard of honor, and the eunuchs and court ladies lined up and knelt down to welcome the queen.Under His Majesty Dan, the envoys who greeted relatives returned to their orders immediately.Amidst the sound of drum music, the officials of the Ministry of Rites presented the Queen's gold books and gold treasures to relevant people for display in the Jiaotai Hall behind the Qianqing Palace.The ceremony where the bride sits is sent to Kunning Palace to worship the heaven and the earth by the imperial lady, female officials, and maids to lead, lift, support, or follow.

Busy outside was in full swing, but Emperor Tianqi was meditating quietly in the palace, while Chen Hong, who was standing by the side, had a sad face and looked out from time to time.Since talking about the topic just now, Emperor Tianqi has become like this, and he doesn't know what he is thinking.

Although Chen Hong was worried, he didn't dare to disturb Emperor Tianqi. This young emperor was usually very kind, and he didn't beat or scold court ladies and eunuchs, but if he really did, he would definitely not soften his heart.

Just when Chen Hong had nothing to do, a young eunuch walked in and respectfully said to Chen Hong: "Godfather, the time has come!"

Waving to the little eunuch, Chen Hong breathed a sigh of relief, walked quickly to the side of Emperor Tianqi, and whispered: "Your Majesty, the auspicious time has come, and it is time to go out." Seeing that Emperor Tianqi did not move, Chen Hong stretched out his hand and slowly shook Emperor Tianqi's arm.

"Understood!" Sighing lightly, Emperor Tianqi said flatly.

When Emperor Tianqi came out, the real ceremony began.Liu Yijing and officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs followed the emperor and went to Kunning Palace to pay homage to their marriage.After worshiping, there is a very important etiquette, that is, the wedding feast.

卺 means "ladle".In ancient times, a gourd was cut into two scoops, and the bride and groom each held one of them and drank a cup of wine, which meant "two into one".However, as the saying goes: press the gourd and get a ladle.This thing seems to be unlucky, and later people often use cups to drink wine.By the time of Emperor Apocalypse, the emperor and the empress already had special drinking utensils, such as the sapphire goblet cup, two conjoined cylinder cups, about two inches high, with embossed and hollowed out dragons and phoenixes on the outside, and two festive poems. verse.

Send Emperor Tianqi and Zhang Yan to Kunning Palace, and then they all leave, leaving the husband and wife behind, and the wedding feast begins.Before that, Emperor Tianqi had to do one more thing, which was to remove the hijab for Zhang Yan.

Picking up the wooden stick with unknown material and unknown name on the bedside, he sank into his dantian, and then gently lifted the red hijab.Just the next moment, Emperor Tianqi's hand shook violently, and the wooden stick fell to the ground.Emperor Tianqi himself also jumped back abruptly, kicking a chair down.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you?" Seeing that Emperor Tianqi was about to fall, Zhang Yan hurriedly stood up, wanting to go to help Emperor Tianqi.

"Don't come here, sit back, sit back!" At this time, Emperor Tianqi shook his head and smiled wryly, with beads of sweat on his forehead.

Zhang Yan was stunned, although he never thought that Emperor Tianqi would fall in love with him just by looking at him, but he couldn't have this attitude, and immediately stood there in a daze.

Gently lifted the chair, then walked slowly to the table to pick up a mirror, handed the mirror to Zhang Yan, and said with a wry smile, "Look for yourself!"

Subconsciously took the mirror, the doubt in Zhang Yan's eyes disappeared, and she quickly picked up the mirror and took a look.

When Zhang Yan looked at her, Emperor Tianqi was also looking at her up and down, but her figure was invisible because she was covered by the phoenix robe.I can't tell what the face looks like!His pale face was rubbed with something, like a layer of flour.Blood red lips, painted very small, with a big bun, looks like a porcelain doll from a horror movie.If it is a later life, seeing this appearance at night will definitely scare people to death.

Putting down the mirror with some doubts, Zhang Yan looked at Emperor Tianqi for no reason, what's wrong?Although I don't like to dress up like this, isn't it said that this is a ritual?

Emperor Tianqi smiled sheepishly, and said awkwardly, "I'm not used to this. I was shocked when I saw it for the first time. You must know that I'm relatively timid!"

Gently covering her mouth, Zhang Yan was afraid that she would laugh, but she looked at Emperor Tianqi with a much more kind gaze.The big bright boy in front of him is not as scary as imagined, he is more like a naughty younger brother!

Touching his nose embarrassingly, Emperor Tianqi smiled and said, "Well, what should we do next?"

"Your Majesty, it's time for the Hebei wine!" Zhang Yan walked slowly to the edge of the table, picked up the sapphire Hebei cup on the table, poured a glass of wine, and handed it to Emperor Tianqi.

Smiling embarrassedly, Emperor Tianqi took the wine glass lightly, and drank it down in one gulp!Then he tasted it and said with a smile: "This wine is not bad, it is better than what I drank before!"

Looking at Emperor Tianqi's expression, Zhang Yan was stunned. The expression on his face was complicated, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

"This, isn't it?" Emperor Tianqi also seemed to have noticed something was wrong, and he couldn't help but blame Chen Hong in his heart. He didn't teach himself, and he had to make a fool of himself. After returning, he must teach him a good lesson.It's just that Emperor Tianqi didn't know that these were the tasks of the Marriage Deputy Envoy, but Sun Ruyou, Minister of Rites, obviously forgot!

Picking up the jug, Zhang Yan poured another glass. Zhang Yan handed the wine glass to the Celestial Emperor with a smile, and said softly, "Your Majesty, just take a sip!"

Since you don't understand, don't pretend to understand. Emperor Tianqi took the wine glass with a smile, and took a sip.Then Zhang Yan took the wine glass and drank the rest of the wine in one gulp.Seeing this scene, Emperor Tianqi nodded thoughtfully.He picked up the wine glass on the table and poured a glass into another glass, then handed it to Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan took a big sip, and then Emperor Tianqi drank it down in one gulp!
