Chapter 4: A night of flowers and candles in the bridal chamber, a moment of good night
Winter has entered, and the snow in Beijing this year seems to have never stopped.
After several more heavy snowfalls, it was the day when the third, fourth, and fifth princes of the Forbidden City married their direct descendants, Fujin.
In order, the wedding dates of the three people were arranged very close to each other.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Rites made arrangements in an orderly manner according to the previous regulations.
The third son of the emperor, Yinzhi, married Dong E, the daughter of Dutong and Yongqin Gong Pengchun.
After the ceremony, it was the day when Uranala Zhiyi got married.
Then the fifth son of the emperor, Yinqi, married Tatala, the daughter of Yuanwailang Zhang Bao.
Although Lu Zhi's wedding in his previous life was not sloppy, it was far less grand than this time.
On the day of the wedding, Luan Yiwei prepared an eight-carriage sedan chair surrounded by red satin. The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, whose years and birthdays coincided with each other, led 20 subordinate officers, and the military escort officer led 40 military guards, responsible for marrying the newlyweds.
When the auspicious time comes, the eunuch will place the colorful sedan in the middle hall.
Uranala Zhiwen came out of the pavilion in a formal dress, and followed the maid to wait on the sedan chair and under the curtain.
Eight eunuchs lifted up, led by sixteen lanterns and twenty torches, followed by female officials, and rode out of the gate. In the front line of the honor guard, the General Manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Staff Officer of the Guards respectively led their subordinate officers and guards to guide and protect the people.
When he arrived at the fourth elder brother's courtyard where his elder brother was staying, the female officials waited on Fujin to get out of the sedan chair and led him into the palace.
My elder brother raised the curtain and decorated the ceremony. As usual, the Ministry of Internal Affairs prepared fifty tables of banquets, thirty-six sheep, fifty tables of pastries, and fifty bottles of rice wine for the celebration.
All the princes, princes, ministers, bodyguards, second-rank and above officials and wives who were not on duty gathered together to attend the banquet that day. Honglu Temple sent officials to lead the ceremony, and Qintian Supervisor sent officials to tell the time.
At the banquet, tea, fruit, wine, and delicacies were served in sequence, with a band playing in the middle to add to the fun.
At the end of the banquet, all the officials knelt three times and kowtowed nine times at the palace gate.
Lu Zhi woke up before dawn and worked hard for most of the day. She thought to herself that today's trip was finally half over, and she would have to "kneel down" for another day tomorrow.
No, she should find a good "boss" for herself, and she should have a good rest.
When no one was around, he asked the maid Pin'er to take off her phoenix crown and harem. Looking at the wedding bed covered with hard fruits, she found the imperial concubine's couch outside which was equally festive, fell down and slept.
The civil and military officials quickly dispersed, but the princes stayed behind. Fourth elder brother Yinzhen was too drunk, so after the drinks dispersed, he stopped the brothers from planning to have a wedding ceremony, and only entered the wedding room when it was dark.
The maid and her mother-in-law saluted outside the house: "Fourth Master."
Seeing the fourth master waving his hand, they closed the door of the wedding room, and had no choice but to take a worried look inside the room and retreat to the penthouse.
There is no one on the wedding bed.
Yinzhen frowned and found a small group of bright red people on the imperial concubine's couch.
On their wedding night, his Fujin... fell asleep by himself?
Yinzhen was stunned for a moment, feeling a little confused for a moment.
Ulanara is three years younger than him, and is said to be the most gentle and disciplined among the three blessings.
Dehene had no objection to the person chosen by Khan Amma herself, but she always had no objection to her own affairs.
Yinzhen also asked his uncle Tong's family to help check it, and it was probably good.
I took a look at it tonight. Is the news wrong?
The man in red clothes turned over and turned his face.
Yinzhen took a look and saw that they had never met before, so why did they look familiar.
Lu Fei was hungry from sleep, so she opened her eyes. Under the light of the red candle, she saw a fair and stern face in front of her. Even shaving half of his head could not block his nobility and elegance. He was as clean and cold as a snow lotus, and as graceful and elegant as a bamboo.
According to the quotations from later generations, she seemed to have seen this little brother before.
Is there anyone in the world who looks like her imagination? The lover in front of her happened to have every feature on her heart, no more and no less.
He looked at her intently, his eyes unflinching, his dark eyes as dark as the night, dotted with cold stars.
Lu Fei woke up. This was Mr. Qingjun that day, the junior whom she had stamped to confirm that she liked him.
Unexpectedly, they actually still have such a fate.
Ulanara woke up.
His hair-tied wife has a casual posture, with a few strands of hair falling from the temples, adding a bit of charm to this gorgeous face carved with pink and jade.
Lu Pheasant was stared at by the handsome young master, but she didn't panic at all. She got up, put on the phoenix crown and harem again on the small kang table, walked back to the wedding bed, put on herself a red hijab with flowers blooming, wealth, and dragons and phoenixes in auspiciousness, and sat down proudly. Your rules and regulations seem to have never left.
Yinzhen just looked at his wife and turned a blind eye.
He was a little surprised. He knew it was so disrespectful, but he didn't feel angry at all. He even found it a bit amusing.
He stood for a while.
Lu Pheasant waited for a while and then spoke softly: "Master..."
It sounds like the sound of broken Kunshan jade.
Yinzhen froze, he had heard this voice before...it was actually her.
The little girl who talked about "emphasis on agriculture" helped him capture Mr. Wu.
As if being bewitched, Yinzhen obediently picked up Yu Ruyi and lifted the hijab he had just covered.
Lu Pheasant lowered his head in a shy manner.
Of the other three little sisters in Fengdu, Empress Dowager Xuan later gave birth to another child with King Yiqu, not to mention Empress Wu, who had a harem of not only three thousand but also a thousand. Empress Dowager Xiao was the most dedicated and had semi-public lovers.
Only she has been a ruthless old man all her life.
Empress Wu's fellow had laughed at her countless times for being so wasteful of natural resources and ignorant of the pleasures of the world.
Lu Pheasant never argued, nor was he moved.
Just now, she wavered for a moment.
Such a young and handsome boy who descended from heaven is also known as righteousness.
After returning to the human world, I would be sorry for myself if I didn't eat him up and wipe him clean.
It's a pity that although she is thousands of years old in her heart, her little body is only thirteen years old, so she has to sigh that she is getting married too early.
The couple successfully completed the union ceremony.
Yinzhen said calmly: "Fu Jin, wash up."
The beloved's voice was still as pleasant as that day, and it was even more magnetic and beguiling when he got closer. Lu Pheasant nodded blankly.
She went to the bathroom and let Piner take off her clothes and clean her hair. After a while, I held a white embroidered cotton cloth and dried my waist-length hair section by section before arriving outside.
Seeing the fourth master sitting at the Eight Immortals table in the main hall, he raised his eyes to look at her, his eyes deep and starry.
After a second look, it turned out that it was not an illusion. Yongzheng, a young man, is really good-looking.
He changed out of his bright red groom's robe and put on his navy blue embroidered red-edged gold bat pattern uniform. He sat down casually, elegantly and leisurely, with an open book in his hand.
Are you waiting for her?
The prince who is said to be cruel and cruel by the world has such a gentle side in private?
"Are you hungry?" Yinzhen said calmly.
Lu Pheasant nodded obediently.
"Come and eat." Yinzhen had already arranged a table of dishes. Both of them had been tired for a long day, and what was served was all delicious food.
Red date, longan and millet porridge, green vegetable and egg porridge, shredded chicken noodles with oil and green onion, sliced white chicken with juicy sauce, mixed with green vegetables, a pot of dried bamboo shoots and squab soup that had been simmered for a long time and skimmed with oil, and two bowls of hawthorn and chopped peanuts. of warm milk.
Lu Pheasant doesn't attach much importance to the desire for food and drink, but in Fengdu, his mouth has almost faded away, and now he doesn't refuse anyone who comes.
Whoever arranged the dishes for this table showed their care and attention. It seemed that the dishes prepared by this brother were less difficult than she had expected.
Lu Pheasant pulled out a big red silk ribbon from the dressing table and tied 70% of his feathered hair back. He was dressed in a red dark patterned silver silk pajamas and a blouse with a diagonal collar embroidered with mandarin ducks and branches. He was standing at the Eight Immortals Table. Sit down opposite.
Yinzhen started to drink the soup by himself.
Lu Pheasant also scooped up millet porridge and drank it.
If Grandma Er, who was following me, would have been frightened when she saw her, she didn't serve Fourth Master for dinner on the first night after Fujin got married. How could this happen?
Lu Zhi naturally knew the rules of serving the original body, but in the last life, the original body had served her all her life. Did she get what she wanted in the end?
After living for thousands of years, Lu Pheasant has long understood that while you can work hard in your career, it is better to "just let it happen" between people.
Wouldn't it be nice to spend more time with delicious food with a beautiful and delicious husband?
This is a good moment.
