Phoenix Fight: The First Concubine

Chapter 59 The Big Wedding
The woman in front of her is like a budding peony flower, her country is beautiful and heavenly, and she is unadorned in the world.

When the nuns who came back saw her re-makeup, they were a little bit critical at first, but it was obvious that her craftsmanship was better than theirs, so they were speechless.

Not long after, Murong Wei heard the noise of firecrackers, gongs and drums coming from outside, and heard the maid said that the procession to welcome the bride had already arrived.

At this moment, Murong Wei was led by her sister-in-law Yun Xia, and went to the main room to meet her grandparents. The parents and adults each said something for her to take care of her husband and raise her children, and then went back to the boudoir.

According to the rules, the groom was going to pay homage to his father-in-law and his mother-in-law. Xiao Mingrui had a high status, but he didn't take it too seriously.

Even though he was stopped by Master Murong in the middle, he didn't dare to let Xiao Mingrui kneel down on him, he turned sideways and said not dare, and then said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to do this, the old man understands your heart."

Xiao Mingrui said earnestly: "Although my son-in-law is in the royal family, he still understands the principles of human relations. Now that he is married to Ling's daughter, I should regard you as my father-in-law."

Seeing his sincere words, Master Murong also smiled and responded to his father-in-law.

After staying at Murong's house for a meal and a drink, Xiao Mingrui brought someone to pick up the bride.

Murong Wei was sitting in the boudoir, and Murong Lan and Murong Yue were also there. Murong Yue joked: "I found a chance to laugh today, and it won't be hard to do something for King Luo later."

Mrs. Liu said with a smile: "Why are you so bold? If the prince is in a hurry and comes in to ask for someone, it will be difficult."

Murong Wei blushed and said, "Sister, don't laugh at me, you're the one who made things difficult for King Luo, so what does it have to do with me?"

Everyone laughed when they heard it.

"It doesn't matter, listen, is the King Luo coming to welcome the bride outside?"

No, at this moment Xiao Mingrui had brought the Fifth Prince Xiao Mingchen to greet him in person, and when he arrived at the gate of Mo Garden, he was stumped.

The entrance of Mo Garden was already blocked by people, Murong Fu, Murong Guan, and even the little kid Murong Hao were hugged by the nanny and watched.There were still some relatives of the same family standing on the side, lively blocking the door to prevent people from entering.

Among them are Feng Yu who has a smile on his face but a gloomy expression, Murong Yue's husband-in-law Qin Yongning, and Murong Wei's eldest cousin Zhou Che.

These people are all newly promoted scholars of the Hanlin Academy, Zhou Che is still gentle and refined, and has a very good relationship with Qin Yongning, and the two became friends.

Today is the day when I, Murong Wei, get married, the Zhou family also came to attend the wedding, and Zhou Che wants to meet King Luo in person.

"My lord, if you want to welcome the bride, you have to answer our questions, or you have to stay and buy money. I don't know which one will the lord choose?"

Murong Guan laughed happily.

Seeing people blocking the door and refusing to let him go, Xiao Mingrui didn't care about it in a good mood. His face was full of spring breeze. Today, he was dressed in a bright red leather jacket and wearing a dragon crown. With a smile, he looked at the crowd, brushed off his robe, and said calmly: "The little king has no choice but to answer this difficult problem, and he must answer the princess quickly."

Xiao Mingchen yelled at the side: "Hurry up, don't miss the auspicious time, there is no problem in this world that can trouble the second brother."

Zhou Che's eyes flickered slightly, and he said calmly: "In this case, let the lower officials come up with the questions. There have been poems reminding makeup in ancient times. Why don't you compose a poem on the spot, Your Highness, how about making makeup?"

Xiao Mingrui looked at Zhou Che, and saw that this person's expression was calm and introverted, and he was not caught by his aura when he looked at him, and he still smiled slightly, revealing a somewhat elusive taste.

Xiao Mingrui thought in his heart, "If this king writes a poem, can he welcome his wife?"

Murong Fu said: "If Your Highness composes poems, it will be feasible."

Xiao Mingrui pondered for a moment, but lived up to everyone's expectations, and also wrote a makeup reminder poem.

Murong Wei was in the room listening to his clear voice chanting verses, and her heart burst into sweetness.

"Okay!" Zhou Che smiled slightly, and didn't say any more, "The auspicious time is not too early, and it's time to welcome the bride."

He just wanted to see, and everyone was very knowledgeable, so he didn't deliberately make things difficult for Xiao Mingrui so that he couldn't get a wife or catch up with the auspicious time.

"Thank you for my brother-in-laws, I will invite you all again in another day."

Everyone welcomed Xiao Mingrui into the yard with a smile, and shouted one after another: "The bride is going out!"

Someone from inside came out to welcome them, and refused to let them in. After a while, Murong Fu went in, carried Murong Wei on the back, and left the ink garden. When he got to the gate, he rode a soft chariot until he reached the gate of Murong Mansion, holding Ruyi and apples in his hands. , and Murong Fu carried it back into the sedan chair.

After entering the sedan chair, the family took a mirror and took a picture of the sedan chair, which meant that the evil spirits were cast away.

Xiao Mingrui was also led by others to bid farewell to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and then he rode a tall horse in front of the gate. In the sight of everyone in the Murong Mansion, the guards of honor were in full swing, gongs and drums cleared the way, and the government officials cleared the street, holding carts and carrying palace lanterns , spittoons, pots, dishes, bowls, dust whisks and other things, the maids and accompanying guards filled the entire street, ten miles of red makeup, the front is far away, the back has not yet left the street, many people are on the side of the road Onlookers.

The guard of honor spared several streets before turning to Luowang Mansion.

He entered the Luo Palace before the auspicious time.

At this moment, the Luowang Mansion is also very lively, full of guests, and the doors of the mansion are all open.

Xiao Mingrui shot three arrows and hit the curtain of the sedan chair, Murong Wei curled her lips in the sedan chair, thinking that it would be really annoying to get off the horse.

After getting out of the sedan chair, stepping over the saddle and the brazier, I was reminded by the mother to cross the threshold and stride, and then I arrived at the main hall for worship.

It took me a long time to write this chapter, and I edited it and then deleted it, hehe, for this life and this night, let’s cheer, everyone, let’s sprinkle flowers to celebrate Murong Wei’s formal marriage...

Because they were married in the royal family and there was no abbot of the emperor and queen, the two of them performed the worship ceremony under the auspices of the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the people of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. After the ceremony.

At this time, Murong Wei was sent to the bridal chamber by Xiao Mingrui.

After entering, Murong Wei was helped to sit down on the wedding bed.

There was a lot of noise around, and some lively laughter came, and then Murong Wei felt her eyes light up, and Xiao Mingrui picked Xipa away with a golden scale.

Murong Wei narrowed her eyes slightly, and only then did she see Xiao Mingrui in front of her, seeing a flash of surprise in his eyes, staring straight at her, she couldn't help but blushed, her pink neck was stained with a blush, and she looked more and more human. Huajiao, with pink face and peach cheeks, is charming.

The people on the side burst into laughter, and the invited mother Quanfu, Princess Qi and Princess Chu laughed again and again.

Concubine Chu laughed and said, "Oh, the second elder brother was so dumbfounded."

"With such a beauty, it's no wonder the second brother is tempted." Princess Qi said with a smile, "Second brother is really lucky."

Xiao Mingrui coughed lightly, and said in a disguised way: "Let's salute, and go to the front to toast."

Quan Fu's mother stepped forward and asked Xiao Mingrui to sit on Murong Wei's right, tied the skirts of their clothes together, then took a small red bucket filled with coins and fruits, and threw it on the tent and on the bed with a smile.

While throwing it, he sang the tent song.

To the east of the tent, the curtain is deep and the candle shadow is red.The auspicious atmosphere lasts forever, and the painting hall is full of spring breeze every day.

On the west side of the tent, brocade belts and tassels hang down from the four corners.When you uncover it, you can see Chang'e's face, but Xianlang catches the branch when you lose.

Spread the tent south, so happy and procrastinated.The cold moon is good and the wind is cool, and the house is cool, and both embroidered belts are worn by men.

In the tent, a pair of jade hibiscus in the moon.As if meeting a goddess tonight, Wufeng is surrounded by red clouds.

Under the tent, see the Golden Light Society.Jimeng will be with you tonight, and the price will be set for the birth of a boy next year.

Before spreading the tent, the mist is neither fog nor smoke.In the fragrance, the golden Qiu is hidden, and Wen Xiao meets the Cailuan fairy now.

After spreading the tent, the couple lived harmoniously and kept together.Husbands sing and wives accompany each other, don't be a lion roaring in the east of the river.

A lot of peanuts, longan, red dates, lotus seeds and other things fell on Murong Wei's hair, and suddenly the catkin hidden under the coat was grabbed by him.

Murong Wei glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, and saw that he was looking at her tenderly and intently, with all kinds of tenderness, all kinds of affection, her heart became sore and soft, as if her whole heart was soaked in a warm hot spring. Drifting, unaware.

The Quanfu mother went forward and cut off Xiao Mingrui's hair and tied it with hers. From then on, they will be a married couple forever, and they will spend the rest of their lives together.

There may be ups and downs on this road, and there may be contradictions, but since she has stepped on it, she does not regret it.

Yes, no regrets.

From the day she was on Ziwei Mountain, when he asked her if she regretted it, she said it.

not regret.

I have no regrets in this life, even if the love is broken in the future, I will not let down the beauty of this life, this night, and the beautiful day.

Murong Wei looked back at Xiao Mingrui tenderly, at this moment her heart was only sweet and warm, and the two hearts seemed to be infinitely close for a moment.

What she loves the most is never the love that burns on fire, which burns too fast and will easily dissipate.

As long as she has a steady stream of feelings, she will always make people feel pleasant.

This kind of love may not be so beautiful, and there may always be problems of one kind or another, but it is the most durable.

She is willing to go with him for the rest of her life.

On a beautiful day, with golden phoenixes and candles burning brightly, she joined hands with him, and they will never be apart again.

After Quan Fu's mother sang the song of spreading the tent, someone came over with her children and grandchildren's cakes. Murong Wei saw that they were dumplings, so she tasted them and spat them out raw.

Then someone asked, "Is it alive?"

She blushed and said in a low voice, "Health."

The people next to him laughed loudly, Murong Wei was quite embarrassed by the laughter, she raised her head to look at Xiao Mingrui, seeing his burning eyes, as if he wanted to swallow her, she couldn't help but tremble in her heart.

Quan Fu's mother stepped forward and untied her and his skirts.

For a moment Xiao Mingrui was a little reluctant to let go of her catkin, but in front of so many people, he had to temporarily rest his thoughts.

"I'm going to entertain the guests first."

Murong Wei nodded and ordered someone to change his clothes.

Xiao Mingrui took a deep look at her, then changed his clothes and went to the front yard to entertain guests.

Princess Qi stepped forward and said: "Siblings and sisters really look good, I like them both."

Murong Wei closed her eyes, Princess Qi's appearance belonged to a middle-aged person, but her body was not ordinary, her phoenix eyes shone brightly on her oval face, she looked at Murong Wei with a smile, the princess wearing a red phoenix pattern Luanniao's regular clothes are more and more dignified.

It's just that it sounds like Murong Wei has other thoughts.

It is impossible for her as a wife not to know about the conflict between King Qi and Xiao Mingrui.In this case, what do you mean by saying that she looks good, that she is a seductive person?
Murong Wei raised her head, and said a little shyly, "Sister-in-law, I'm just joking. I'm just a pussy willow, so I can't compare to sister-in-law, you are as noble as the Queen Mother. De Rong speaks meritorious deeds, and I can still see people with that word of virtue." .”

Princess Qi was naturally happy when she heard that she compared her to the queen mother. The queen mother is a queen, and she may have a chance in the future.

As for this Murong Wei, she is just a concubine daughter, so there is no need to pay too much attention to it.

But seeing her rebutting her words, she was quite smart.

Concubine Chu is gentle and elegant, with a bit of bookish air, but she is very suitable for the king of Chu.Seeing this situation now, he said with a smile: "Our lord has told me about the second sister-in-law. I've always been curious about it. In the future, we should have more contacts with the second sister-in-law."

"Don't dare, I look at my sister very kindly, if you don't think I'm annoying, let's hang out more in the future."

"How could it be? I saw the dowry you sent. The embroidery is very good. I'm going to ask you for advice in the future."

After a few people talked, someone came to invite the wives and concubines to the banquet, and only Murong Wei and two personal maids, Lu'er and Xiang Tao, were left in the room.

Seeing Miss's relieved look, Lu'er said with a smile: "Miss, please sit down first, the servant will bring you the things, you still have to sit on the bed."

Murong Wei rubbed her neck, only to feel that the things she was wearing on her head were too heavy, making it difficult for her to even breathe.Can't help but distressed: "This thing is too heavy, can I take it off?"

"No way, miss, this will damage your luck." Lu'er held the treasure vase filled with grains, Yu Ruyi, and asked her to hold it on the scale.

Murong Wei rolled her eyes, "Take it off for the time being, no one else will know if it's right, you guys just watch over it, and I'll take it easy, otherwise I'm afraid I'll faint from hunger when the banquet is over."

Lu'er had no choice but to do what she wanted, and took off the nine-zhai-four-phoenix crown from her head.

Murong Wei suddenly felt much more relaxed, and rubbed his neck, "Let me eat something first, I haven't eaten anything since morning, but I'm very hungry."

Xiangtao came over with some snacks: "Miss, let's eat something first, the prince's banquet guests will come back later."

Murong Wei agreed, it's already afternoon, she was so hungry that her chest was on her back.

Murong Wei ate some snacks, and waited for the whole afternoon, and then she fell asleep.

It was noisy outside all the time, and it was not until night that Xiao Mingrui came towards the new house surrounded by people from outside.

Lu'er quickly woke Murong Wei up, then put on the nine-zhai-four-phoenix crown for her, and adjusted her makeup. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, she was relieved.

When Murong Wei heard the commotion outside, she knew that they were coming to make trouble in the bridal chamber, and she was a little nervous for a while, wondering if these people would play some tricks.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw someone push open the door and come in, and entered the bridal chamber noisily.

Murong Wei was sitting upright, seeing Xiao Mingrui being helped in, reeking of alcohol, she wondered how much he had been drunk.

The fifth prince and the fourth prince helped him in, Xiao Mingrui seemed drunk, and said with a smile: "Brothers, continue to drink, if you don't get drunk today, you won't return!"

"Oh, the second brother is drunk, this is not acceptable, today is a day of great joy. You can't neglect sister-in-law." The fifth prince yelled.

King Qi glanced at Murong Wei and saw that she was dressed in bright red Fengguanxiapei.

Annoyed by his gaze, Murong Wei stepped forward and said, "What's the matter, is the prince drunk?"

"No, I'm not drunk." Xiao Mingrui took her hand and said, "Miss, hurry up and prepare the food and drink. I want to stay with my brothers until I'm drunk."

As he spoke, he shook his body and seemed to fall down.

The fifth prince hurriedly supported him, seeing that he couldn't wake up after pushing, he said in surprise: "Oh, second brother is drunk."

As he spoke, he said to Murong Wei apologetically: "Second brother, he drank too much today, so he has to trouble his sister-in-law to take care of him."

Murong Wei quickly turned sideways and said "Don't dare", then pointed to someone and stepped forward to help Xiao Mingrui lie down on the couch.

"Uncles, I am really sorry today, the prince is like this... I am not good at entertaining you all, please help my fifth brother to send it off."

The fifth prince smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, don't rush us away, I'm here to ask for a reward."

Murong Wei saw that besides King Qi, the fourth and fifth princes of King Chu, and the sixth and seventh princes whom she had never seen before also came.

The sixth prince is just an eleven or twelve-year-old kid, dressed like a prince, and the sixth prince is weak and seems to be in poor health. The seventh prince is seven or eight years old, and he is cute, pink and tender. like.

"That's right, Second Sister-in-law, Fifth Brother said you can make many beautiful things." The Seventh Prince blinked at Murong Wei with big black eyes.

The fourth prince yelled: "No, Second Sister-in-law, you have to give a meeting gift today."

Murong Wei smiled and said, "That's natural."

After finishing speaking, she asked Lu'er to bring a tray of gilt-painted crabapple flowers. Everyone just gave them purses, but the styles were different.

King Qi's is two poodles fighting, King Chu's is a cartoon villain reading a book, the fourth prince's is a villain riding a horse and archery, the fifth prince's is a hero with a sword, and the sixth prince's is a white eagle soaring In Tianji, the Seventh Prince's is a cartoon mushroom head with watery eyes, just looking at it makes people like it.

There are also different things in it, such as refreshing incense beads, heat-repelling beads, and soothing herbs.

"I like this, it's so interesting." The seventh prince held the mushroom head with a smile, and the sixth prince was also very happy. He liked eagles, and the white eagle on it made him fondle admiringly.

The fourth prince is a reckless man who likes horseback riding and archery, and the fifth prince also likes these things, and King Chu's is also very appetizing to him.

Only King Qi had a weird expression on his face, "My brother and sister really have a heart."

Murong Wei smiled and said, "I don't know what elder brother likes. I heard that you are a dog, so I prepared this."

Two poodles fighting, hehe, it's really interesting.

King Qi looked at Murong Wei with a calm smile, feeling a little unhappy in his heart.

He just returned to the capital from Nanjing with his father the day before yesterday.

The woman in front of him, only he can understand how special she is.

But Xiao Mingrui climbed up.

But this is not surprising, if this woman is smart, she will not choose to be a concubine.

Very well, he wants to see what happens to her in the future.

"I don't know what the eighth brother likes, please ask the fifth brother to bring it for him." Murong Wei also took a purse and handed it to the fifth prince.

The fifth prince took a look and saw it was a strange-looking rabbit, and said with a smile: "Second sister-in-law, this is really a fantastic idea, I have never seen such a fancy shape, and I have to bring some to Huimu Concubine later."

Murong Wei agreed, and all the brothers left without staying for a moment.

Murong Wei looked back at Xiao Mingrui, saw that he was still lying there without moving, stepped forward to push him, and said with a smile: "Okay, stop pretending."

Xiao Mingrui opened his eyes, his black pupils were smiling and bright: "How do you know I'm not drunk?"

Murong Wei blinked and smiled slyly: "I won't tell you."

Xiao Mingrui laughed and hugged her, Murong Wei exclaimed, "No, there are still people."

"There's no one else, it's gone long ago..." He turned over and hugged Murong Wei, his breath was suffocated by the smell of alcohol, and he pushed him with a red face: "No, I haven't bathed yet, Reeks of alcohol."

Xiao Mingrui buried his head in her hair, and murmured: "Wei'er, I'm so happy to finally marry you. You are mine now."

Murong Wei pushed away his heavy body and said angrily: "I'm going to take a bath, look at your smell of alcohol."

Xiao Mingrui sat up and smiled: "Let's wash together."

Murong Wei's face turned red immediately, she was so angry that she beat him, she broke away from his embrace in shame, and stomped her feet: "Who wants to be with you, I hate it!"

After finishing speaking, she called Lu'er and Xiangtao, and sat down in front of the vanity mirror. Seeing that he was still staring at her, she glared angrily.

A few maids came in outside, and Su De saw the prince supporting the bed with both hands, looking at the princess who was taking off the hairpin while being served by the maid with a smile, and asked, "Will the prince want to wash up?"

Xiao Mingrui got up and said: "Well, if not, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep."

Murong Wei knew that he was teasing her, seeing that he was being attended to and went to the clean room to take a shower, so she also took off her make-up, changed her clothes and went to take a shower.

After the bath was over, Murong Wei sent the maid to leave, changed into a nightgown she had someone make newly, and went back to the house.

Seeing Xiao Mingrui sitting at the table waiting for him, he had changed into a light Taoist robe, he was slightly startled when he saw her, staring at her nightgown non-stop.

This nightgown is made of Yunjin, light and comfortable, it is already hot this season, so it is the most suitable to wear.

It's just that after wearing a belt, it looks slender and more glamorous.

Murong Wei blushed when he saw him, "I'm hungry, eat something first, you can use some too."

Seeing some porridge and seven or eight dishes on the table, she knew that he must have ordered it, and thinking that he must have drunk a lot, she got up and went to the door and asked Lu'er to bring some honey water.

As soon as she arrived at the table and sat down, she was embraced by him. She let out a low cry, but his voice was hoarse: "You made this dress, huh?"

"Yeah, it's a nightgown, it's for sleeping at night."

"You are not allowed to wear it for others to see, do you know?"

Murong Wei laughed and said: "Whoever wears pajamas to go out, wears indoors..."

Xiao Mingrui smiled lowly: "Okay, just show me the clothes."

With a wave of Xiao Mingrui's hand, the gauze curtain lowered down.

The sea of ​​love is surging, the dragon and phoenix candles are burning high, and there is a crackling sound from time to time. The bright red Xiaying gauze in the new house blocks the windows, making the house more joyful.

The low-hanging twig lotus bright red soft smoke covers the rich aroma in the room, and the curtain hangs down, like a wave of water that sometimes shakes, sometimes stops, and sometimes is calm.

Lu'er, who was preparing honey water and wanted to enter, was stopped by Su De outside the door, "Don't go in now."

Lu'er was wondering, seeing Su De's strange eyes, suddenly thought of something, and blushed.

She was ashamed and turned away quickly.

How could I forget, this is the wedding night in the bridal chamber.

She thought of the pajamas Miss was wearing, if the prince saw it, he would have to immediately...

Lu'er blushed with embarrassment, and went to the ear room to be with Xiangtao.

Today they met with the maids and servants from the palace, and they had to discuss with Xiangtao what to do next.

I don't know how long it took before the tent seemed to calm down.

Xiao Mingrui laughed lowly, his voice shook his chest, he got up and asked, "Would you like to take a bath?"

Murong Wei's whole body was sore and limp, she had no strength left, she shook her head, "No more."

Xiao Mingrui went to clean the room.

With her eyes closed, Murong Wei suddenly felt a burst of warmth all over her body. Seeing that he was wiping her body with a western towel, she couldn't help but blushed.

She knows the men here, and after she's done with women, she still has to get up to serve them. Xiao Mingrui can take care of her emotions, which already makes her feel very comfortable.

She grabbed his wrist, "I'll do it myself."

He smiled and said, "It's the first time I've done this for a woman, you let me finish it."

He is a noble man in heaven, he has never served others before, but he is willing to do these things for her because of his heart.

Murong Wei was moved in her heart, thinking that women are really easily satisfied animals, as long as they have a little care, they can be moved for a long time, remembering the kindness of men.

Suddenly a cooing sound broke the beautiful scene, Murong Wei's face suddenly became embarrassed, she didn't dare to look at his smiling eyes, and muttered: "I haven't eaten today, I'm so hungry."
