The 21st day of the fifth lunar month is a good day and auspicious time for marriage.
Before dawn, the city of Yanjing was already brightly lit and busy.
Yan Yan was called up by her nanny early to dress up. After all, the wedding bun was different from ordinary ones, more complicated and cumbersome. Yan Shu's status was here, so she couldn't keep it simple, and she was married locally, so she had to follow the ancestral rules.
Yan Shu was originally a person who was very afraid of trouble, but this time, she didn't find it troublesome at all. Because the wedding is very sacred in her heart, no matter how troublesome it is, it should be done.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Yan Shu felt a little unreal. Although she experienced all the processes personally, she still had no sense of participation. I don’t know who is leading this wedding. Everything is so orderly. She is like a puppet, being guided by her grandma to do this and that. She has no thoughts and does not need to have any thoughts. It seems that she only needs to cooperate. .
"The prince-in-law has arrived, the prince-in-law has arrived." Cheers began outside the door.
Just as Yan Yan was about to look back, a red silk hijab embroidered with the word "happy" came over her face, blocking all sight in an instant. Yan Yan could only lower her head and see her own hands.
"The groom cannot be allowed to see the bride's face before the wedding is over. The groom will only listen to the bride after they are married." The nuns laughed and booed.
Yan Shu wanted to laugh after hearing this, what's the truth!
There was a lot of noise outside the door, and people around him gradually walked towards the door and started laughing. Yan Shu didn't know what they were talking about or what they were causing trouble. There was only her wearing a red hijab, sitting in front of the dressing table, waiting quietly, waiting for people to think of her, waiting to complete all the rituals.
After a while, maybe it wasn't too long, Yan Shu began to feel drowsy, and while she was in a trance, a pair of warm hands took hers. She wanted to look up, but she couldn't see anything. There was only a gentle call: "Little girl."
"Li Xiao, is that you?" Yan Shu asked through the hijab.
"It's me." Li Xiao replied, and gently squeezed Yan Shu's fingers.
Hearing Li Xiao's voice, Yan Shu finally calmed down, and her thoughts were instantly brought back to reality. She understood that all the uneasiness and panic were actually because Li Xiao was not around, and she had to face it alone. When Li Xiao came, she had someone to rely on.
According to the rules, after picking up Yan Yan, Li Xiao had to go to the Qinzheng Hall first to say goodbye to Emperor Yan Yun, the Queen and Concubine Liu. After the ceremony, Li Xiao's name was written on the royal jade plate and given the Prince Consort's seal.
After the rituals in the palace were completed, they were sent to the general's palace in a sedan with eight carriages. The rules of the General's Mansion are not as complicated as those of the palace, but the proper etiquette must be followed, and the Ninth Princess must not be neglected.
Because of their close proximity, Emperor Yanyun and Concubine Liu gave the wedding in person, which shows their love for the ninth princess.
After the ceremony was completed, Li Xiao did not wait long before returning to the new house and uncovering Yan Shu's head.
"Why are you back so soon? Don't you need to socialize?" Yan Shu asked. In her image, the grooms in the TV series always came back very late after being drunk.
"Today is our big day to get married. To me, you are the most important. As for the entertainment, I have left it to the imperial brother." Li Xiao said as he filled the cup with Hexin wine and handed it to Yan Shu.
"In this case, it is useful for the emperor brother to be present at the critical moment." Yan Shu couldn't help but laugh.
"Little mistress, come and drink this cup of Heyuan bar with me. After finishing the wine, it's time for the bridal chamber." On the night of the bridal chamber, Li Xiao didn't want to delay for a moment, he just wanted to become one with Yan Meng.
