Shen Nairong was also completely shocked by Huang Xiao's huge changes!
Because Huang Xiao was completely different from what she remembered, and became extremely handsome. Even if she only met him once, she still felt a rush of heartbeat every time she thought of Huang Xiao's appearance!
However, there was no time to talk about the engagement. In the words of his father, it had to be planned slowly. Huang Xiao was getting married soon, and he was marrying the sister of the current queen. Don’t say that Huang Xiao didn’t remember the engagement. Even if he did, he still remembered it. Can it be argued over?
Huang Nimian continued talking somewhere.
"People say that women change at age eighteen, but they didn't expect men to change at twenty! Now my cousin is really Yushu Linfengsai Pan An, he is so handsome! What a pity! Ronger, you think so!"
Shen Nairong glanced at Huang Nimian and said with a smile: "If you like her so much, just ask your father to propose marriage. This is also a kiss! In the future, if we sisters work together, it is not impossible for us to gain a foothold in the palace. "
Huang Nimian blushed and hummed: "Okay, I just took a look and found that our looks are no worse than Princess Shu's, so we don't have no chance!"
Shen Nairong sneered: "Haha, do you really think that I have never heard that cousins with the same surname can get married? You are not afraid of others' ridicule. If your cousin is a wise king, he will not care? Haha! You want to follow the dragon and the phoenix? , I’m afraid there’s no chance at all!”
Huang Niman was so angry that she was shaking all over!
Little did she know that what Shen Nairong just said was deliberately told to her, just to elicit her innermost thoughts and make her look embarrassed!
Huang Nimian is extremely jealous of Shen Nairong. Even if she doesn't even have a character, she still can't help but be jealous.
Of course, Shen Nairong knew this very well. In private, she ignored Huang Nimian's cynicism. But in this scene today, Shen Nairong couldn't help but retort.
"You!" Huang Niman was furious: "You humiliate me like this, be careful I expose you to my cousin."
Shen Nairong said coldly: "Okay, go ahead. Our two families are pretty much the same. Who should we expose? Your father?"
Huang Nimian stamped her feet and ignored Shen Nairong with a cold face.
At this moment, gongs and drums were roaring in the distance, and joy was playing. A luxurious phoenix chariot, surrounded by more than a thousand mighty Han generals and more than a hundred palace maids, approached.
In front of it are two luxurious soft sedan chairs.
The eunuch shouted: "Your Majesty is here!"
"Congratulations to your Majesty, Your Majesty Jin'an!"
The crowd knelt on the ground again.
A soft sedan chair fell in front of the phoenix chariot, and Zhang Yan stepped off the sedan chair with the support of Chen Xiujun and Huang Ling.
Today's Zhang Yan is also wearing a phoenix crown and a beautiful red dress. She is really gorgeous!
The three of them walked into the courtyard, followed by another soft sedan being carried by eight palace maids.
"My concubine Lin Yushu pays her respects to the empress."
Zhang Yan quickly helped her up.
"Princess Shu does not need to be polite. The King Xian cannot come in person, so I will welcome the bride on your behalf. Sister, please get on the sedan first. My phoenix chariot has also come. Go outside the courtyard and then change to the phoenix chariot to enter the palace to complete the ceremony!"
Lin Yue'er thanked her and said: "The phoenix chariot is for the exclusive use of the empress. It's not appropriate. I'd better sit in the sedan chair. Yu Shu is grateful to have the empress come to welcome the bride in person. She won't dare to overstep it! Yu Shu thanks the empress." So much love!”
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Sisters, what are you saying about these false gifts? Moreover, this matter was specially arranged by His Majesty. I will go to the phoenix chariot with you. Sister, please don't refuse! Don't delay the auspicious time because of this!"
Yueniang was a little surprised, but she nodded.
After getting on the sedan chair, she and Zhang Yan got on the phoenix chariot together, and headed towards the capital with a lot of music.
Originally there were many cumbersome etiquette, but due to time, they have been simplified a lot.
However, in the Zhang Mansion, it was a different process. Everything was done according to the rules of the Ministry of Etiquette. Therefore, Huang Xiao couldn't get out!
His situation is special. If it were an ordinary person, Yueniang could only be regarded as a concubine at most. She would only be able to carry a sedan chair and enter through a side door.
Of course, Yueniang's situation cannot be the same as ordinary people.
Zhu Youxiao's gift this time was really extraordinary. The gift to the Zhang family was as high as 188 dan, and its value was nearly twice that of Yueniang.
Along the way, the sound of firecrackers and cheers continued, and the group headed towards the palace. They would meet at the palace gate and finally enter the palace for the ceremony.
In this era that pays attention to etiquette, holding a wedding, or a wedding of Huang Xiao's level, is an extremely complicated matter.
Even if Huang Xiao's request was reduced a lot in order not to delay the business, it still took nearly two hours from the time he went to welcome the bride before eleven o'clock until the ceremony was completed and the banquet started.
When Zhang Yan and Lin Yue'er both walked out of the phoenix chariot wearing phoenix crowns and harems, Huang Xiao was extremely surprised.
He immediately understood that this must be Zhu Youxiao's special arrangement!
The emperor used this hidden meaning to express his determination to let Zhang Yan go, and also used actions to dispel Huang Xiao's concerns. Huang Xiao could only be secretly grateful for this unique arrangement.
The luncheon was very lively, and the liquor and wine purchased by Huang Xiao from Hyundai aroused the admiration and admiration of the guests, so that many people became drunk.
This includes the two princes Xu Yunzhen and Xu Hongji, as well as ministers such as Zhou Yanru and Shao Fuzhong.
Zhu Youxiao didn't drink any alcohol due to his health condition, so he replaced the wine with warm water.
Not to mention Huang Xiao's drinking capacity, even at such a festive moment, he did not drink.
The banquet dispersed.
Zhu Youxiao smiled and said: "My dear friends, today is a good day for the opening of the Beijing-Tianjin Wei railway, and it is also the first time that the Fuxing has set sail. I invite all my dear friends to come with me and take the Fuxing to Tianjin and return in the evening!" After that, drink to your heart’s content and you won’t come home until you’re drunk!”
The ministers applauded loudly.
Wei Zhongxian said: "Your Majesty, Duke Wei, Duke Ding, Shao Ge Lao, Yang Yushi, Zhou Yushi and more than ten people are too drunk, so I'm afraid they can't accompany us."
Xu Yunzhen, who was half-drunk and half-awake, and the others were all overjoyed, and they all thought the words "castrate the dog" were the most touching.
There were also ministers like Yang Lian who were drunk, but they disagreed.
Yang Lian said: "I must participate in such a grand event. If I just take a nap on the train, I will be sober on the way home! Governor, the sobering soup is arranged!"
Everyone laughed.
Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "Come here, bring me some soup to sober up the wine. Today, all our ministers will sit in the Fuxing Hao and create a great story. They are neat and tidy. No one is missing!"
The ministers cheered loudly.
Xu Yunzhen's face changed slightly, he secretly scolded Yang Lian for being troublesome, and felt quite anxious.
While several people were racking their brains to think of a solution, they saw that Wei Zhongxian had arranged for someone to bring sobering soup, and the eunuchs served the ministers to drink it.
Xu Yunzhen had no choice but to pretend to be fainted. No matter what the eunuch did, he couldn't drink the sobering soup and he wouldn't wake up.
Zhu Youxiao sighed, "It doesn't matter, someone will come and carry the two princes and several ministers onto the Fuxing in a moment!"
Xu Yunzhen and others were immediately dumbfounded. They did not expect that they had already pretended to be drunk to this point, and the emperor would not let them go. This operation would directly defeat them!
"What happened to the first assistant and Zhang Cifu?"
