Chapter 406 Ten Miles of Red Makeup
In front of the bronze mirror, Yang Ehuang was sitting quietly on the dressing table, her long hair was scattered over her shoulders and down to her waist like a waterfall.

From the time when Jiangdu was in trouble to today, her heart is full of twists and turns. How can she use words such as joy and excitement, bitterness and sweetness to describe her current mood. Sorry.

Fuyi stood behind the bronze mirror, helping her comb her hair carefully.Fu Yi said: "Your Highness, you are so beautiful today."

Yang Ehuang said with a slight smile: "When married since ancient times, is there any bride who is not beautiful?"

Fu Yi said: "Those are all ordinary women, you are the majestic Princess Changle now."

Yang Ehuang smiled, but remained silent. Apart from brushing his clothes, there were five or six servant girls serving him.

They put phoenix hairpins on Yang Ehuang, tied up the blue silk, put on white powder putty, painted plain eyebrows, put flower yellow on the forehead, smeared rouge, and finally put on the phoenix coronet and Xiapei solemnly.

After finishing these things with great difficulty, Yang Ehuang glanced at the bronze mirror, nodded slightly, indicating that it was ok.

"Tonight, the weaver girl came down to the world, she evened her makeup in front of the mirror, and thought about her own leisure; she has a beautiful face with peach blossoms, and she doesn't need makeup and powder to stain her face."

It turned out that the bridegroom's welcoming team had already arrived, and they sang makeup poems outside the mansion.

The maids in the room were all giggling, listening to the reminder poem outside the door, they said: "His Royal Highness, the son-in-law has already arrived outside the door, so let's not start the reminder."
Yang Ehuang lowered his head.

Fu Yi raised his eyebrows and said loudly: "Why is there such a hurry, Her Royal Highness is a golden branch and a jade leaf, so precious, so what if the son-in-law waits, what are you making fun of?"

When all the servant girls saw Fuyi open his mouth, they all shut up. Yang Ehuang laughed and said, "Fuyi, are you trying to scare people?"

Fu Yi said: "Princess, I'm doing this for your own good, and let the son-in-law wait a little longer, lest that kid think it's too easy to marry a daughter-in-law, and look down on you in the future."

"You!" Princess Changle blamed slightly.The maids laughed together again.
The make-up reminder poem outside the window was read over and over again. At first, there were only a few people, and then dozens, hundreds of people sang together.

Gongs and drums blare outside the courtyard.

A servant girl here heard Fu Yi's whisper, opened the door and went out, shouting in the courtyard: "Come and go, this is the song. Is the son-in-law exhausted?"

At this time, someone outside said: "You girl, you are so talkative, the son-in-law is so talented, and you are afraid of you, but I am afraid that the auspicious time will be missed, so I urged you."

"You can marry someone with talent, why come in if you don't have talent, do you marry casually as princesses?"

"I really can't do anything about you, listen up," another person sang at this time: "It is rumored that the red powder is lowered by the candle, and there will be no spring in front of the mirror stand; there is no need to wear makeup on the face, and keep the eyebrows for painting."

"it is good!"

Everyone inside and outside the yard applauded, even Yang Ehuang smiled.

"It is rumored that the red powder is lowered by the candle, so that you will not be in front of the mirror stand; you don't need to be full of makeup, but keep your eyebrows ready for painting."

Hundreds of people outside the house sang in unison, their voices were resounding, so lively and festive.

Outside the courtyard door, there were knocks on the door one after another, and the maids all looked at Fu Yi.

Fu Yi waved his hand at the crowd, walked out of the room, went to the outside of the courtyard, and said loudly: "Just now it was done by someone else, son-in-law, you claim to be talented, why don't you sing a long song for our princess to listen to?" listen?"

"The princess has a life, respect is worse than obedience." Li Chongjiu replied loudly outside the room.

When everyone heard that Li Chongjiu wanted to show off his poetic talent, everyone fell silent, even the gongs and drums stopped.

Yang Ehuang couldn't help listening in the room.

"The night is long and the moon is about to slant, and the embroidered barrier is exquisite and beautiful. In order to repay the servant girl, I see Qing'e from his son-in-law."
"it is good!"

There was another series of applause, and then the gongs and drums were beaten together, and everyone said together: "New wife, hurry up!"
Fu Yi went back to the house and closed the door. At this moment, the courtyard door outside the house opened, and the sound of beating gongs and drums from outside broke into the courtyard at once, and everyone felt their ears buzzing.

The maids on the side covered their ears with their hands, and the sound of gongs and drums was accompanied by the shouts of the crowd, which made people feel very festive amidst the noise.

Afterwards, the groom began to salute outside, and Yang Ehuang sat quietly, with a red handkerchief covering his face, all he could see was a bright red, and he could only vaguely see the scenery outside, hazy.

I just heard the long voice of the master of ceremonies outside saying: "Remove the obstacles!"
"Dian Yan!"
"Throw!"

"Worship the family temple!"

Yang Ehuang didn't know that Li Chongjiu was very busy outside. In fact, like every groom, on the wedding day, the biggest feeling was not joy, but tiredness and fear of something going wrong.

After a ceremony, Yang Ehuang saw Li Chongjiu finally enter the house.The maids on the side all laughed happily, and said congratulatory words together: "My slaves, I wish the princess consort a happy life and good health, and a happy marriage for a hundred years."

Li Chongjiu, who was wearing crimson red clothes, also laughed heartily, and scattered the red envelopes casually.

After the maids got the red envelopes, Yingying Yanyan whispered, everyone was very happy.

Yang Ehuang saw the other party walking in front of him, and said in a familiar voice: "Princess, please come with your husband."

Yang Ehuang was a little ignorant, sitting in a chair, at a loss, but saw Li Chongjiu bent down with his back to him.At that moment, Yang Ehuang only felt light on his body, it turned out that he had carried himself on his back.
The hairpin around her ear was swaying, and Yang Ehuang only felt that the phoenix crown was a little heavy. In a blink of an eye, she seemed to see her elder brother Yang Hao standing quietly by the door and looking at him. It was cold, and the tears fell without warning.

Li Chongjiu carried Yang Ehuang on his back and stepped out of the room door, the courtyard door, the hanging flower door, and passed through the door one after another. From then on, he couldn't help but change his surname to his husband's surname.

In the end, Yang Ehuang got into the sedan chair after Li Chongjiu carried it for a while.

"Get up the sedan chair!"

The gongs and drums sounded again, this time it was the most enthusiastic, bringing the joy of welcoming the bride back to her husband's house.

Eight sedan chairs were lifted up, Li Chongjiu straddled the horse and marched after the sedan chair circled three times, and behind them was a long welcoming team.

A load of loads and levers are red lacquered and gold-painted cages, which are carried by people in auspicious clothes, with the bride's dowry jewelry, quilts, female reds, beds, pails, fruit buckets, porcelain vases, Cheng jars and so on. One foot and one foot, the team carrying these alley cages walked on the street, walked around the city, and spread out for ten miles.

The horns were blown to open the way, and the two sides of the sedan chair were crowded with Youzhou people who watched the excitement.It was the first time in Youzhou that the princess got married. Just these ten miles of red makeup made many women in Youzhou who were waiting to be married envied for a lifetime.
The street outside the square was full of spectators, everyone was pushing and shoving, and the Youzhou soldiers on both sides of the street lined up like a wall, and it took a lot of effort to block and arch.

On the other hand, the entourage of the husband's family distributed fruits, wedding cakes, and copper coins to the common people along the road, enjoying the happiness together.

The common people were all overjoyed when they got something, and when the sedan chair passed by, they shouted together.

"His Royal Highness is a thousand years old, and blessings are endless."

"The princess son-in-law harps and sings, and has a precious son early."

"Princess Consort, Duke and Marquis, we have been together for a hundred years."

Someone shouted: "Duke Shanggu has favored Youzhou to avoid war, and the old people have nothing to repay. We can only present this picture of a hundred sons and a hundred lives to Duke Shanggu. May the princess consort's family have a hundred sons and a hundred lives!"

Li Chongjiu received the picture riding on a horse, and said, "Thank you, folks in Youzhou!"

Yang Ehuang sat quietly in the sedan chair, feeling peace and joy never before in his heart. Turning his head and looking aside, Li Chongjiu clasped his fists in all directions and said, "Thank you, thank you."

"Li is not very grateful!"

The cheers from all sides, like waves one after another, immersed Li Chongjiu and Yang Ehuang in this joy.

Under the shouting and embracing, the welcoming team just arrived at the Youzhou Governor's Mansion at dusk.

Emperor Yang E got off the sedan chair, stepped on the felt mat and slowly stepped into the gate of the mansion, with every step someone would put away the felt mat behind him and spread it to the front.

After stepping over the saddle, he entered the gate of the mansion, passed the gate, and passed through the corner gate. In front of the ceremony hall, the Qinglu and Baizi tents had already been set up.

It was bustling outside, Wang Junkuo had already arrived outside the mansion to receive the Youzhou officials who came to congratulate him, and moved to the side hall to receive them. In the evening, there will be a grand banquet.

Yang Ehuang stood still, and someone from the side came forward and said: "Please, Your Highness, please get off the red handkerchief."

Yang Ehuang immediately took off the red handkerchief, but saw countless people watching him with smiles.

Many people said: "It's really beautiful!"

"You can tell at a glance that you are a blessed person."

"Mr. Shanggu is really blessed!"

Yang Ehuang listened to the sweet head in his heart, turned his head slightly and saw Li Chongjiu standing beside him, looking at him with a smile on his face.

The four eyes met, and I couldn't help but have mixed feelings.

Surrounded by the crowd, Li Chongjiu and Yang Ehuang joined the tent of Baizi.

The Baizi tent was set up very large, which could accommodate dozens of people, and then someone who served served them with the same prison plate.The two each took three mouthfuls of pork rice from the same prison plate, and then removed the plate.

Immediately afterwards, a pair of boys and girls held a small ladle each, Yang Ehuang knew that this was a gift of wine for the two of them.

The crowd chanted: "One is for the husband-in-law, and the other is for the bride."

Li Chongjiu and Yang Ehuang followed the ancient etiquette and took a sip of the wine from the boys and girls together.

At this time, a person on the side came forward and said: "My lord is in Huaihuang Town, so I can't come here. I will send you all the best, rich and noble flowers, and more than every year. Four horses of palace satin each with baby plays and pictures. I hope the new husband and wife will have more children." Sun."

When Yang Ehuang heard that Li Hu hadn't come, he couldn't help being slightly disappointed. Li Chongjiu knew what she meant, and said: "Recently there have been changes in Turkic, so although my father has long wanted to come, but he is sitting in Huaihuang Town and cannot withdraw. People give you presents."

After hearing this, Yang Ehuang was relieved, and said to the other party: "Thank you for the gift, father-in-law, I am very grateful."

"Su Junshou can't come here either, so I'll send you two screens and two pairs of birthday bottles."

"Thank you, Uncle Su."

"Sun Tongjun, also send Bu Yao, a pair of precious flowers."

"Thank you Fifth Aunt."
