When everyone saw Azhen's appearance, they all looked at Master Zhao Huai. No matter who was right or wrong, human life was the most important thing.
"Master Zhao! Thank you for your help! Although I know that you have worked hard all night to welcome Zhao Cheng, please persist and prescribe some powerful intravenous medicine for Zhen to calm her down first!"
Guan Ya bowed to Master Zhao for help, and now he was the only one who could temporarily stabilize the situation.
"Don't worry, I'll leave you to prescribe the medicine!" Zhao Huai is not someone who loses his fighting power just because he hasn't slept all night. He is always full of energy when he is needed.
"Everyone, please disperse and go back quickly to prepare for the 'crowning' ceremony of the two young masters. We are about to leave for the ancestral temple, and we need to walk a long way, so we have to pack up first! I'll leave it to the servants this time!"
Guan Ya opens his mouth and everyone steps down. This embarrassing scene is really not suitable to stay for a long time.
The jade pendant was lost and recovered, and was finally found before the "Guan Ceremony". Guan Ya quickly ordered someone to put it away, put it together with another jade pendant with the word "武" in the brocade box, fastened the lock, and told the servant carrying the box: Be sure to keep an eye on it, make sure nothing goes wrong, and don't let any accidents happen again!
Doctor Xiang also learned that the jade pendant had been recovered, and he finally felt a little more relaxed. The crowning ceremony of the two sons, which has been planned for a long time, has finally entered the countdown to the official ceremony.
Xiang Mansion is less than half a mile away from the Xiang Family Ancestral Temple. All the clansmen who are qualified to participate in this ceremony put on their formal clothes early and gathered towards the Ancestral Temple from all directions. For a time, this section of the road became the exclusive avenue of the Xiang family, and it also attracted many passers-by to stop and watch. People stretched their necks and talked a lot. Seeing this grandeur and pomp, they all knew that this was a major event for the Xiang family: two people. Prince Xiang was crowned on the same day, and Hua Yuan's right division was present in person. The officers and soldiers sent to protect him blocked the road for half a mile and entered a state of "martial law".
For this ceremony, not only Master Guan Ya and Master Zhao Huai were very busy, Master Guangkang was also busy over there, taking on all the ritual and music parts. He also spent all his energy in rehearsing all the ritual music. After working hard for more than half a month, I finally trained a group of hired musicians to be able to perform on the stage. The other three masters did not have specific jobs. They were all asked to come to the ceremony wearing formal attire to witness and participate in the ceremony.
From this seemingly complicated process and steps, how to enter the ancestral temple and how to "crown" after entering, Guan Ya, as the host, has already performed the deduction for the two disciples no less than five times, so that they are familiar with it: Routes, postures, expressions, movements, speeches, gift-giving... a series of "prescribed actions" are all strictly followed in accordance with the relevant requirements of "Zhou Rites".
Just for the crowning costumes, each of the brothers prepared five sets! They are divided into five gift boxes and stacked according to the process, and a dedicated person is responsible for assisting in changing clothes.
"Haha, I have never tried to change clothes five times in less than one day!" Xiang Zheng was not very interested in changing clothes, but he was still a little concerned about the number of clothes. But when he put them on and looked in the mirror, he saw that they were not bad, "Have a look. Myself, wow, I am truly a very heroic 'handsome boy' today!"
"Life requires a sense of ritual."
Suddenly, a line of lyrics sounded in Xiang Zhong's mind, wasn't it? When he and brother Xiang Zheng were in their own rooms, with their mothers helping them, and putting on the first set of formal attire for the ceremony, a very solemn feeling naturally arose.
The first set of dresses worn by Xiang Zheng and Xiang Zhong were both made of ramie cloth and were completely snow-white. The only difference was that the fabric pattern of the trim was different: Xiang Zheng's was made of red phoenix pattern. Decoration; while the heavy one is pure cyan.
Mrs. Xiang knew clearly that this was because Mrs. Xiang's grandparents were still alive, but she had no parents on her side. When she was arranging the belt of this dark coat for Xiang Zhong, she saw her son's waistline that had just begun to grow, showing his graceful and elegant adult appearance. Thinking of the years since childhood, she couldn't help but cry with joy. Xiang Zhong comforted her for a long time:
"Mom, today is my coming of age, you should be happy! Stop crying!"
Man is such a strange animal! What kind of clothes you wear, what kind of mood you have.
When they put on their first suits and came together, they looked at each other from a distance, just like a pair of beauties appearing for the first time, so elegant and suave, people couldn't help but admire them!
"Brother, you look so beautiful today!"
Xiang Zhong spoke first. The small reserve brought by this dress was broken by the two brothers' glances at each other, and he couldn't help but smile.
In fact, what he "praises" is the "double bun" ceremonial hairstyle - for him, it is acceptable; but when this hairstyle is placed on the head of 20-year-old Xiang Zheng, it is really a bit - —I want to laugh!
Although he himself has the same hair style, he can take advantage of being five years younger to act "laughing at fifty steps and laughing at a hundred steps" here.
"Zhong'er, you are also a pretty--a handsome boy! Hahahaha!"
Similarly, Xiang Zheng couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw Xiang Zhong walking towards him with his "double bun", and he tried to hold it back. If Master Guan Ya hadn't performed the simulation no less than five times in advance and had enough mental preparation, if it were normal, Seeing Xiang Zhong's hair style often, he had already drawn his bow and arrows, and used the two "small rings" as targets to practice archery.
"Brother, congratulations on your beauty!"
Xiang Zhong said "like flowers and jade" because the pattern of Xiang Zheng's clothes, the two ribbons tied with the "double bun", and the trim of the sleeves are all made of the same material.
"You, Chong'er, will surely excel!"
Similarly, the two tie ties on Xiang Zhong's bun are of the same style and material as the cyan on the edge of the dark coat, but the overall look is much more stable and fresh than the "flowery and red" Xiang Zheng .
According to the order of the process of going to the ancestral temple, Master Guan Ya led Doctor Xiang and Right Master Yuanhua to arrive at the ancestral temple in the first group; then the two Mrs. Xiang took Xiang Yi and Xiang Ning, accompanied Zhao Cheng, and the second group arrived. Brothers Xiang Zheng and Xiang Zhong were the third and last group to arrive. The rest of the people had already arrived at the ancestral temple crowning ceremony in advance and stood in the prescribed area led by Master Guan Ya, just waiting for the ceremony. has officially begun.
At this time, the people who had arrived early took their positions, and the crowd was not yet quiet. The slight commotion caused by everyone's social whispers merged into a "buzzing" white noise, mixed with the magpies flying in the sky to watch the excitement. The sound of "chirping" created a sense of sight in a busy city.
Until I saw from a distance that the first convoy was coming, Master Guangkang directed the musicians to start playing chimes, drums and harps, playing piano, harmonizing, and singing "Xuanmo", and these "buzzing" sounds started I was overwhelmed by the sound of the music and stopped suddenly, only to see the musicians playing and singing:
