Li Jingyao slowly stood up from the ground with the support of her personal maid Xin'er, and finally gave her mother He Shufu an elegant bow.
"Mother, the child will go out first."
He Shu hurriedly blinked his beautiful eyes several times, forced back the water mist in his eyes, nodded to Li Jingyao, who was already covered with a red hijab, turned and walked towards the door of the boudoir.
He Shu casually wiped the corners of his eyes first, then gently opened the closed door of the boudoir, nodded to the maid Xin'er who was supporting Li Jingyao, and silently stepped aside.
"Princess, the door is open, it's time for us to go out."
Li Jingyao's delicate body trembled, and she responded softly, letting the maid hold her arm and slowly walk toward the door.
"Oh oh oh, the bride finally comes out."
"The bride is coming out, playing music."
Amid the shouts of Liu Chengzhi's friends, the band standing on one side immediately played music to welcome the bride. The cheerful music gradually dispersed Li Jingyao's sadness about leaving his mother and concubine He Shu.
A group of Liu Chengzhi's friends looked at Li Jingyao who was staring at Li Jingyao who was walking out of the boudoir. Liu Chengzhi shook his head helplessly and hurriedly pushed him forward to meet him.
"Pick up the bride."
"Pick up the bride."
Liu Chengzhi reacted from his sluggishness, hurriedly tidied up his clothes and greeted Li Jingyao elegantly.
"When the bride comes out of the palace, she goes to the bride's house."
The servant who followed immediately handed the already prepared Qianhong into Liu Chengzhi's hands.
After Liu Chengzhi took the lead, he silently walked to Li Jingyao and handed the other end of the lead to Li Jingyao.
"Jingyao, I'm here to marry you."
Under the red hijab, Li Jingyao's pretty face nodded with anger and joy, and gently held the Qianhong handed over by Liu Chengzhi in the palm of her hand.
"A newlywed couple leaves the hospital and bids farewell to Yang En in the hall."
Liu Chengzhi and the two listened to the shouts of the old housekeeper of the Princess Mansion on one side, held each other's hands and walked towards the main hall of the Princess Mansion without haste.
He Shu, who had already detoured from a side door to the main hall, listened to the sound of music getting closer and closer to his ears, exhaled softly with red lips, sat on the chair and waited silently.
After about half a cup of tea, Liu Chengzhi and his wife finally entered the main hall.
The old housekeeper of the Princess Mansion glanced at Li Jingyao, who was covered with a dragon and phoenix hijab, and waved gently to the servants on the side.
"The newlyweds bid farewell to their parents. Let's have some farewell tea."
The servant on the side immediately walked up to the two of them carrying a tray with two warm tea cups.
"Uncle, Your Royal Highness, please."
The two of them picked up their teacups and walked towards He Shu, who was sitting at the head of the table.
"Aunt...mother-in-law, please have tea."
"Concubine, please have tea."
He Shu picked up the tea from the two of them, took a sip and put it aside.
"You two must respect each other as guests from now on and live a good life like a couple of gods and immortals."
With just these words of explanation, He Shu said no more.
"Don't worry, mother-in-law, my son-in-law will treat Jingyao well in the future and will never let her suffer the slightest injustice."
He Shu pursed her lips and nodded slightly, then raised her hand and waved it gently.
"It's getting late, hurry up and enter the palace, don't waste the auspicious time."
"Hey, my son-in-law bids farewell to my mother-in-law."
"The child is unfilial, bid farewell to mother and concubine."
After Liu Chengzhi saluted one after another, they stood up and walked slowly towards the door.
Outside the gate of the princess's mansion, when He Shu poured the water from the copper basin under Li Jingyao's lotus feet, Li Jingyao got into the impressive sixteen-carriage sedan with the help of the maid.
"When the bride enters the sedan door, she will be blessed with many descendants. Get up the sedan."
The group of about a thousand people when they arrived and about two thousand when they left gradually disappeared around the corner in front of the Princess Mansion Street under the watch of He Shu.
"Mother Princess, it's time to go back and change into palace clothes. The carriage is ready. It's time for us to enter the palace for the banquet."
"Yes. I know."
About half an hour later, Liu Chengzhi rode a tall horse and slowly entered the palace gate under the gaze of thousands of people.
The moment the wedding procession entered the palace square, the entire palace instantly became silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on Liu Chengzhi riding the horse.
"Xu."
Liu Chengzhi felt the pressure of everyone's attention, took a gentle breath, turned around, dismounted, and walked towards the sixteenth sedan behind him.
"Press the sedan chair."
"yes!"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the pressed sedan and moved to the side and said softly: "Jingyao, now we have arrived at the Dragon Bridge in the palace. It's time for you to step out of the sedan door."
"Um!"
Li Jingyao responded softly in the sedan chair, supported the body of the sedan and silently stepped out of the sedan chair, and her personal maid Xin'er, who was holding a red hand next to her, hurriedly came up to help her.
After Li Jingyao got off the sedan chair, she glanced at where Liu Chengzhi was standing on his toes and silently aligned their bodies. Each of them took the red hand from the maid's hand and walked steadily towards Young Master Liu and their positions.
"When the newlyweds cross the Dragon Bridge, the sound of dragons and phoenixes is played."
Compared with the previous music of dragons and phoenixes in auspiciousness, the current music of dragons and phoenixes in harmony is equally festive, but it is not as majestic as before, and has a more gentle and gentle meaning.
Liu Song, who was standing behind Mr. Liu, looked at the newlyweds who had already passed the Dragon Bridge. He took a deep breath, took out a piece of bright red silk from his sleeves, ran to the high platform in front and stopped.
Liu Song looked at the newlyweds who were getting closer and closer, and quickly pulled away the silk and sang in a loud voice.
"The dragon asks for the phoenix and the phoenix comes and follows the dragon. The dragon and the phoenix harmoniously sing a new chapter to welcome the bridegroom.
On a good day, beautiful scenery welcomes guests from all over the world. Flowers are in bloom, the moon is full, phoenixes and dragons. Welcoming the bride.
Walking like lotus flowers into the palace corridor, the red carpet reflects the red makeup. May the bride and groom live forever.
Wearing the clothes of my Han family, I married a wife with red makeup for ten miles.
Enter the palace of my Han family and show off my virtues in etiquette.
They became good friends of Qin and Jin, and established a relationship that would last for a hundred years.
Guests from all over the world are arriving, and the first one is my emperor.
We are all guests at the banquet, and sincerely congratulate you.
The groom and the bride bow to heaven and earth. "
When Liu Song's last words of harmony fell, Liu Chengzhi and Li Jingyao stopped about ten steps in front of Young Master Liu's desk.
The two of them turned to face the sky and knelt down to salute, holding Qianhong in hand, and bowed to heaven and earth.
"The ceremony is complete, please invite the bride and groom to bow down to the high hall."
After the two stood up, they kowtowed again to Mr. Liu and his wife and others.
"After the ceremony is completed, the couple bows to each other and is sent to the bridal chamber."
The two turned to face each other and completed the last salute of husband and wife.
"After the ceremony, we entertained guests and played music, dragons and phoenixes to bring good luck."
Liu Chengzhi was about to accompany Li Jingyao to the room that had been arranged in the harem. The group of good brothers around him immediately looked at Young Master Liu who was sitting in the front seat with a slight smile on his face.
Young Master Liu felt the gazes of a group of people and glanced at Liu Chengzhi, who had walked out more than ten steps, with a faint smile and nodded.
He was no stranger to the group of young men standing next to Liu Chengzhi. Seeing their eagerness to try, he naturally did not want to dampen their interest in drinking.
After all, it is indeed early to enter the bridal chamber.
After receiving Master Liu's consent, a group of young men looked excited and pounced on Liu Chengzhi like a tiger.
"Want to run? It's getting dark so early, boss, where are you going?"
"Yes, it's early in the morning, and you're thinking about getting into the bridal chamber without drinking. How can there be such a good thing?"
"Boss, as someone who has been through this, I sincerely tell you that it may not be a good thing for you to enter the bridal chamber too anxiously. From now on, you will understand that the brothers are here for you."
"Stand up and go have a drink."
Liu Chengzhi struggled for a few times in panic, but found that he couldn't break free from the shackles of these animals, so he had to accept his fate and watch his bride being supported by the maids and sent towards the harem.
After receiving the order, the imperial dining room, which had been prepared for a long time, sent the banquet that had been prepared to the palace square in a row.
In about one stick of incense, all the guests' tables were covered with a banquet that was full of color, aroma and taste, and that would whet your appetite at a glance.
"Dear dear friends and distinguished guests, I would like to offer you a drink. I will do it first as a token of my respect."
"I don't dare, I respect your Majesty."
"We don't dare. We respect Your Majesty."
Liu Mingzhi put down his wine glass and nodded to little Chengzi beside him with a faint smile.
"Your Majesty's words are spoken, and there are songs and dances."
Hundreds of young, beautiful, and all-powerful dancers stretched their graceful and enchanting bodies and flew towards the center of the square the moment Xiao Chengzi finished speaking.
Dance gracefully to festive music.
A palace wedding banquet began.
The golden crow fell in the west, and the setting sun was like blood. Liu Chengzhi, who was a little tipsy by his brothers and guests, rushed to the harem with the help of the palace maid.
Liu Song and Xiao Chengzi also began to happily wander around the square and slowly see off guests.
After the last guest left the palace gate, it was already dark.
Young Master Liu looked back at the eunuchs and maids in the square who were cleaning up the mess of the banquet. He shook the folding fan in his hand and left the palace with all his family members.
After Young Master Liu and the others returned to their home, when the moonlight began to rise, the harem was already filled with intoxicating spring scenery.
