"We see the Queen, and we see all the noble concubines. Your Majesty will live a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand years."
"We meet your highnesses the princes, we meet your highnesses the princesses, thousands of years old, thousand years old."
Liu Mingzhi glanced softly at the thousands of relatives and friends who were saluting in front of him, smiled slightly and waved to the thousands of tables on the left and right sides of the square.
"Today is the wedding day of my Lin'er. On behalf of Lin'er, I thank all the distinguished guests who came all the way to Beijing to congratulate them.
Many distinguished guests were seated free of charge. "
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor, and long live."
After all the guests got up, they walked towards the neatly arranged tables and chairs on the left and right sides. After spending some time, they finally found a position that suited their status.
The guests exchanged greetings and compliments with their nearby companions for a moment, and then stood upright in front of the tables and chairs, looking at Liu Mingzhi and waiting.
Liu Mingzhi smiled calmly when he felt the gazes of the guests. He turned around and walked to the highest position where the dragon chair was placed. He lifted up the hem of his dragon robe and sat on the dragon chair at the center of the steps.
"Queen, dearest concubines, dearest ministers, dear friends and guests, please take your seats."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the seat."
After listening to their husband's words, Qi Yun, the third princess and the two sisters, one on the left and the other on the right, sat down dignifiedly on Liu Mingzhi's slightly lowered chair with a phoenix pattern carved on it.
Then the Queen, Huyan Yunyao, Qi Ya... sisters and others took their seats one after another on the luxurious chairs arranged in a half-moon shape.
The places where everyone present sits are divided in a strict order, and no overstepping is allowed.
Today is such a big day with so many friends and guests gathering, even Young Master Liu, who has never cared much about red tape, is rarely formal.
After everyone in the square took their seats, Liu Mingzhi raised his hand to Xiao Chengzi beside him and pointed to the musicians on both sides.
Xiao Chengzi immediately understood and shouted at the top of his voice.
"Your Majesty has ordered us to play music."
After hearing this, the musician team once again played cheerful music that could linger in the ears. The guests and hosts present listened to the beautiful notes lingering in their ears and waited leisurely and contentedly for the newlyweds Liu Chengzhi and Li Jingyao to enter the palace to worship heaven and earth.
As for having something to eat or drink right now, it's simply not possible, it's not that they don't want to, it's just that there's nothing to eat or drink on the table yet.
According to the rules, the banquet cannot be served until a group of newcomers enter the palace to receive the ceremony.
We can't let them chew on the bare table in front of them!
During the music performance, Liu Song came back behind Young Master Liu from nowhere and handed an elegant and exquisite gift box and an exquisite gift list to Young Master Liu.
Young Master Liu looked stunned. He lowered his head and glanced at the gift box in front of him and looked up at Liu Song. The confusion in his eyes was self-evident.
"Liu Song, what is this?"
"Back to the young master, this is the wedding gift that Miss Ren Qingrui sent from Shu to Young Master Chengzhi and Princess Jingyao. It contains a hundred taels of silver notes, a pair of mandarin duck rings, and a congratulatory message written by Miss Ren herself. , the content of the congratulatory messages is a good match for a century."
Young Master Liu's eyes narrowed, and he looked down at the gift box in Liu Song's hand with a hint of sadness in his eyes. Due to some special reasons, he didn't seem to send anyone to send an invitation to Ren Qingrui, right?
Could it be that this girl herself heard about the happy wedding of Chengzhi and Jingyao in Shu?
Although it is not impossible, it will take a long time for the news to spread spontaneously to Shu!
Based on the calculation based on the time of Chengzhi's wedding and the distance from the capital to Shu, it seems that after Ren Yatou heard about Chengzhi's wedding, it was too late to send someone to send congratulatory gifts, right?
Unless someone notified Yatou Ren separately, Yatou Ren could send someone to deliver the congratulatory gifts to the palace in time after hearing the news.
"Liu Song, the young master didn't remember that I told you to send an invitation to Miss Ren! Did you make your own decision without telling the young master from me?"
Liu Song shook his head with a wry smile and gently gestured to Qi Yun on Young Master Liu's left side. The meaning he wanted to express was self-evident.
Liu Mingzhi nodded clearly, picked up the gift list in Liu Song's hand, looked through it casually, and handed it to Qi Yun with a faint sigh.
"Good Yun'er, what a good deed you did for your husband behind your back!"
Qi Yun was stunned for a moment just like Mr. Liu before. She watched the gift list handed over by her husband and put it quietly into her sleeves. She opened the gift list under the cover of the table and took a look.
Looking at the three words "Ren Qingrui" written in beautiful and powerful handwriting at the bottom of the gift list, Qi Yun pursed her red lips and chuckled. She quietly put the gift list into her sleeves and Qi Yun gave Young Master Liu a subtle wink.
"Can you care if I like it? Is there any law in the imperial court that clearly stipulates that I am not allowed to send invitations to my good sisters?"
"That's not true. It's just that Ren Yatou was a little stingy, so she gave her a gift of a hundred taels of silver. What's that enough for?
Fortunately, this girl didn't come to the capital to attend the banquet in person, otherwise I would have to pay for a banquet for my husband.
Then I would really be at a huge loss as a husband. "
"Bah, you're content with that. Isn't a hundred taels of silver still little? You can't earn so much money by setting up a stall outside a restaurant for three months.
Compared with other famous families, the gift list of wealthy gentry is a little smaller, but the gifts must at least depend on the family's background!
Anyway, I am very satisfied with the gift sent by little sister Qingrui.
Sending congratulatory gifts from thousands of miles away is light on gifts but heavy on affection! No matter what the gift is or how much it is, as long as it comes to your heart.
I, Chengzhi, and Jingyao are not such short-sighted and careless people!
Besides, this is a wedding gift from little sister Qingrui to our son and girl Jingyao. Do you have anything to do with your husband?
Why do you dislike it here?
Little sister Qingrui, at least they gave it to you. If they pretend not to have received the invitation and just throw it out the door like worn-out shoes, what can you do to them? "
"A woman's opinion, a woman's opinion! Yes, yes, my husband is too lazy to argue with you. Anyway, the gifts have been delivered to you. You like to receive them, so why don't you just ignore them?"
Qi Yun snorted and looked away towards the palace gate: "You can't control it even if you want to."
Listening to Qi Yun's retort, Young Master Liu smiled bitterly, shook his head and stopped answering. Damn it, it was simply unreasonable.
Looking around the capital, I don't see any ladies who are eager to give their husband a house of young and beautiful sisters to come back and serve him together!
Even if you have to abide by women's ethics and have to give your husband a room of young and beautiful concubines when you reach a certain age, you are happy to say so, but unwilling to do so in your heart.
It's nice to be on my side. I have never mentioned these things. Instead, their sisters and others are eager to drag Ren Qingrui in and stuff her into her arms.
Sensible is very sensible, but is this a little too sensible?
Being sensible makes me feel a little overwhelmed, and I even wonder if there is any conspiracy here.
But I am their loving husband, and as a good lady who loves me in every possible way, what bad thoughts can these beautiful women have towards me?
hiss--
Could it be that because their abilities are too strong, the sisters feel that they cannot bear the kindness of their own rain and dew, and they have no choice but to find another young and beautiful little sister to share the burden?
Um! That’s it, it must be that way!
Thinking of this, Liu Da felt a sense of pride in his heart, and he couldn't help but puff up his chest and sit up straight.
When Young Master Liu was arrogant, Liu Chengzhi in Princess Yunchang's mansion rushed to the boudoir where Li Jingyao was getting married after passing the three levels with a happy face.
