Chapter 1352 Chu Xiang Gets Married
On May [-]th, the emperor of Chu got married, and all countries came to congratulate him. On this day, the city of Xijing was bustling like never before.

In order to celebrate the wedding of Emperor Chu, the people of Xijing City spontaneously hung festive red lanterns in front of their houses.

The queen is the concubine of Tongbohou's mansion, and the festive red carpet was spread from the palace to Tongbohou's mansion.

As the sky was getting brighter, Tong Bohou's wife, Mrs. Chen, led a large group of maidservants to Chu Xiang's room.

Chu Xiang had already gotten up and finished washing, and when she saw Mrs. Chen leading a large group of people to her boudoir, she was a little frightened by the battle.

"Sister-in-law, it's just for me to dress up. I don't need so many people."

Seeing that there were all human heads in front of her at this glance, Chu Xiang was moved in her heart, and at the same time, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

This sister-in-law probably transferred all the capable maids and mothers-in-law of Tongbohou's mansion to help her dress up.

Chen Shi walked up to Chu Xiang's side, and said with a serious face: "Xiang'er, you are the queen of Da Chu. Naturally, when you get married, you have to dress up more grandly, otherwise you will lose the face of the royal family."

Chu Xiang felt that what Chen said was very reasonable, especially in front of the envoys of various countries, she must not lose the face of the emperor and Da Chu as a queen.

"Sister-in-law is right, let sister-in-law arrange everything for Xiang'er."

Chen Shi first explained to Chu Xiang the process of the empress's wedding. Although the palace maid had taught Chu Xiang these common senses, as a sister-in-law, she was still worried and wanted to remind her.

"At noon, the emperor will send a guard to come to Tongbohou Mansion to pick you up and go to the Taimiao to worship your ancestors. The emperor will wait for you in the Taimiao. Traveling around the city for a week, the auspicious time for the wedding is the second quarter of the unitary hour, at least the dragon chariot can return to the palace at the end of the day."

Chu Xiang firmly remembered Chen's words in her heart.

"Xiang'er, thank you sister-in-law for reminding me."

Chen said: "Xiang'er, from noon to the end of Shen, you can't eat or drink. In order to have the strength to go through the whole wedding, you must eat more in the morning."

"Someone is here."

Chen Shi shouted, and the five maidservants standing outside bowed their heads and came forward, saluting Chen Shi respectfully.

"What are your orders, madam?"

The five maidservants belonged to the dining room. Mrs. Chen glanced at them, and ordered: "Miss is already awake, ready to serve the meal, and prepare more light and easy-to-digest food."

Mrs. Chen didn't dare to order the dining room to prepare heavy-tasting food for Chu Xiang, for the first time she was afraid that Chu Xiang would get upset at this time and ruin the wedding, and the second was that the taste in Chu Xiang's mouth would affect the wedding night in the empress' bridal chamber.

"Yes, ma'am."

Mrs. Chen gave an order, and fifteen minutes later, five servant girls came in with exquisite and light pastries, soup and steamed mandarin fish.

Chu Xiang was so nervous that she had no appetite at first, but after hearing what Chen said just now, she still tried her best to eat a bowl of white fungus and lotus seed soup, with a few pieces of pastries and steamed mandarin fish.

Chen's mother and daughter accompanied her for breakfast, seeing her put down the bowl and chopsticks, Chen said: "That's it."

"Ah."

Chu Xiang put down the bowls and chopsticks, and Chen Shi also put down the bowls and chopsticks.

"Now that we are full, let's start dressing up."

Mrs. Chen led Chu Xiang to the dressing table, and then instructed the servants behind her.

"Both of you, burn the incense to smoke the empress's wedding dress."

These could have been prepared the first day, but Mrs. Chen was afraid that the fragrance would dissipate, so she ordered the maids to make them on the same day. Fortunately, there was enough time in the morning to prepare these.

"You, go and get the osmanthus oil for combing your hair."

"You, go and get the rouge powder."

"Mrs. Chen, you are good at combing your hair. Come here and comb the empress's hair."

Chu Xiang was sitting in front of the dressing table, listening to Chen's orderly ordering the subordinates to do things behind her, Chen's gentle voice made her eyes a little sore.

"Auntie, today is your day of great joy, why are you crying?"

Gao Ning came to Chu Xiang's side at some point, and saw Chu Xiang's eyes were red, and the little girl was holding Chu Xiang's arm, looking at Chu Xiang nervously.

Chu Xiang quickly swallowed back the tears that were about to burst into her eyes, and touched the double ring bun on the little girl's head sideways.

"Auntie is happy, Ning'er, after Auntie gets married, you must accompany your mother well."

"Well, Ning'er will take good care of my mother."

While Chu Xiang was talking with Gao Ning, a wrinkled old woman walked up to Chu Xiang, and Mrs. Chen handed the old woman a beautiful grate.

"I've heard people say that blessings from elders will be very effective. Madam Chen, come and send blessings to Xiang'er."

Combing the bride's hair and sending blessings is usually the job of the elders in the family. Upon hearing Chen's words, Nanny Chen was terrified.

Even if Chu Xiang married an ordinary person, it would be inappropriate for her to comb Chu Xiang's hair and send blessings, not to mention that Chu Xiang married an emperor.

Mother Chen was so frightened that she knelt down in front of Mrs. Chen.

"Ma'am, this is impossible."

Chu Xiang turned around and took Chen's hand.

"Sister-in-law, elder sister-in-law is like a mother, Xiang'er's mother is no longer alive, so you can replace Xiang'er's mother to comb Xiang'er's hair and send blessings."

Chen said: "But I'm a widow, so I'm afraid it will be unlucky."

"No, sister-in-law, you are virtuous and virtuous, and you value love and righteousness. Xiang'er is very happy to be blessed by sister-in-law."

Chu Xiang's eyes were firm, so Chen had no choice but to untie her hairband, combed her black hair with a comb, and read: "One comb to the end, the white hair of the son is combed to the eyebrows, and the children and grandchildren are full of hair after three combs." land"

"Okay, Nanny Chen, start posting for Xiang'er."

After sending the blessings, Mrs. Chen handed the grate to Nanny Chen, and turned around with red eyes.

Although Chu Xiang has no blood relationship with the Gao family, Chu Xiang has lived in Tongbohou Mansion for so long, and the Chen family has already regarded her as her own sister. Now that she is married, she will be locked in the deep palace compound in the future. It would be difficult to meet again, and she couldn't help but feel a little bit reluctant when she thought about it.

"Mrs. Chen, please wait for me to serve you. I'll go out and entertain the guests who came to congratulate me."

Because of Chu Xiang's relationship, many people came to Tongbohou's mansion to congratulate him today. On the one hand, Mrs. Chen was afraid that Chu Xiang would find out her reluctance, and on the other hand, she was also worried that Gao Yang and Gao Huan brothers would not be able to handle it.

An hour later, when Mrs. Chen came back, Chu Xiang had already changed into a gorgeous phoenix robe and a phoenix crown, sitting on the bed dignifiedly and beautifully.

The phoenix embroidered with gold thread is lifelike, setting off Chu Xiang's extravagance.

Gao Ning followed Chen's side, staring blankly with wide-eyed eyes.

"Mother, my aunt is so beautiful today."

A satisfied smile appeared on the corner of Chen's mouth.

"That's right, she has the demeanor of a mother in the world."

While praising, Mrs. Chen led Gao Ning to Chu Xiang's side.

Chu Xiang raised her head with difficulty and took a look at Mrs. Chen.

"Sister-in-law, are you all done?"
