After the banquet, Zhu Xiongying supported Lao Zhu and returned directly to the palace, where Concubine Guo Ning was also taking care of her.
Zhu Xiongying watched for a while, and Concubine Guo Ning smiled and said,
"Why are you so envious, Xiongying?"
Zhu Xiongying was also stunned when he heard this, envious?
"Look at your grandpa, he's still being taken care of when he's drunk, even though he also has servants!"
"But after all, there is no one who knows how to feel hot and cold!"
"Although there are servants taking care of me, they are not considerate and cannot talk or quarrel!"
"Isn't that what it's like between our emperor and your sister, just like your grandma?"
"How many people are envious of their relationship!"
Unexpectedly, Concubine Guo Ning’s words changed.
"But don't be anxious, Xiongying, your marriage only lasts a few days!"
"Soon, Xiongying will also have a wife!"
"Haha!" Zhu Xiongying laughed,
"Yes, Grandma Guo is right. On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, I am also getting married!"
"I see you're happy. Okay, let's go back. It's getting late, and Xiongying, you drank a lot too!" Concubine Guo Ning said with a smile.
"Okay, grandpa will leave it to Grandma Guo. I'll leave first!" Zhu Xiongying said.
"go Go!"
With that said, Zhu Xiongying came towards the East Palace. Seeing this prosperous world, Zhu Xiongying's heart was filled with excitement.
He was also getting married, and it was Daming's twenty-fifth birthday.
In the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu's reign, he was twenty-five years old and a young man in his prime.
Not only did he want to give his wedding a ceremony, but he also wanted to give Daming a surprise.
"Two dogs!" Zhu Xiongying shouted suddenly.
"exist!"
"Go and see if Chang Sheng, Guo Zhen, Ping An, and Fu Rang have drunk too much?"
"If there's not much more, let them come over!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
After Ergou left, Zhu Xiongying drank sobering tea with Shunzi waiting on her.
Wait until the summoned men arrive.
After blocking the presence of other people, Zhu Xiongying began to discuss things with these people in the study.
They waited until it was almost dawn before they walked out of Zhu Xiongying's study excitedly.
Zhu Xiongying himself returned to rest.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and it came to the fourth day of the first lunar month, the day when Ming Dynasty was born twenty-five years ago.
Early in the morning, the palace was even more lively than the New Year celebrations in the previous few days.
They all knew what day it was.
The entire capital was decked out in a completely new look. It was as if Lao Zhu had really spent a lot of money on this wedding.
Of course, Zhu Xiongying himself also sponsored 800,000 taels of silver from his own small treasury.
The remaining two million yuan was taken out by Lao Zhu from the treasury for the wedding of his eldest grandson.
In the palace, all the rocks, vegetation, and trees were hung with red silk, and all the buildings were hung with red lanterns.
Red carpets were also spread throughout the main thoroughfares.
Zhu Xiongying, dressed in a red python robe, came to Fengtian Hall, waiting for the auspicious moment.
All the civil and military ministers arrived, and Lao Zhu faced them with a rare smile.
The Minister of Rites serves as the master of ceremonies, Qin Tianjian is responsible for the auspicious time, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Lan Yu, Chang Sheng, Fu Youde, Feng Sheng serve as witnesses, and Lao Zhu serves as the elder.
This scene is no different from when Zhu Biao got married.
"Your Majesty, the auspicious time has come, it's time to pick up the great grandson!" Qin Tianjian bowed his hands and said.
"Okay, Dasun, let's go!" Lao Zhu also said with a smile,
"We are waiting for you to bring our granddaughter-in-law back!"
"Haha, wait a minute, grandpa!" Zhu Xiongying smiled and walked out.
He was followed by Guo Ming, Fu Chun, Guo Zhen, Ping An and others.
When we walked to the gate of the palace, there were already five hundred "Forest Guards" waiting.
The person stands tall and straight, with his head held high and his chest held high, his body slightly leaning forward, his arms falling naturally and sticking to the edge of his trousers.
"Your Highness is here!"
"See Your Highness!" All the soldiers clenched their fists in unison and put them on their chests.
"Okay, follow me, let's go!" Zhu Xiongying waved his hand, got on his horse, and headed towards the mansion where his bride was.
The Mu family is not without space in the capital.
Outside the palace, Zhu Xiongying rode forward on horseback. The big trees on both sides of the street were all covered with red silk.
"One team, run, walk!"
"Team 2, run, walk!"
"Team Three..."
Each team has a hundred people and a captain, who leads them to trot off with Zhu Xiongying.
At this time, soldiers from the Royal Forest Army and the Beijing Camp were also standing on the streets three steps at a time, maintaining order and protecting Zhu Xiongying.
"Congratulations, Your Highness!" The people in the crowd were all familiar with His Highness, and sincerely wished him the best, hoping that he could live a better life and love the people more.
Similarly, on days like this, even those who usually quarrel or fight will never stumble others at this time. They will also send blessings.
Not to mention, common people like them sincerely hope that Zhu Xiongying can have a happy marriage.
"Haha, thank you, thank you all, everyone should be happy!"
As he spoke, Zhu Xiongying took out a handful of copper coins from his arms and sprinkled them towards everyone.
When Guo Zhen, Ping An and the others who were following him saw this, they also started to take action, taking out a lot of copper coins and throwing them out.
"Congratulations, Your Highness!"
Amidst the congratulations, Zhu Xiongying received his bride before returning to the palace.
Under the auspices of the Qin Tian Jianzheng, the Minister of Rites and others, Zhu Xiongying led the concubine to worship heaven and earth, pay homage to her grandfather, and the husband and wife bowed to each other.
After finally sending the bride and concubine back to the East Palace, they looked at the Minister of Etiquette who was presiding over the ceremony and was about to announce the completion of the ceremony.
Lao Zhu even stood up and was ready to drink with everyone. Zhu Xiongying spoke,
"Grandpa, everyone, when we came here before, we all sent congratulatory gifts to Gu Gu!"
"And here, I have prepared a congratulatory gift for myself. Likewise, it is also a congratulatory gift for me, Daming!"
"Today is not only Gu's wedding day, but also my great day, the 25th anniversary of the founding of the Ming Dynasty!"
“So, let’s take this opportunity to show it to everyone!”
"Oh?" Lao Zhu became interested and wanted to know what good things his grandson had come up with.
"Let's see!"
"Okay!" Zhu Xiongying smiled slightly and reached out to pat him.
"Yes, let's go!" A team immediately ran out of the distance, dressed in the same style as the people who played before. These were none other than Zhu Xiongying's band.
Following the command from the commander,
"start!"
Boom! Boom!
Buzz!
The sounds of bow strings and war drums sounded, Taisun's victory song, and their Ming Dynasty's exclusive BGM sounded again.
"Okay, okay, what a soul-stirring piece of music."
"Haha, if we weren't older now, we would still want to go into battle and charge!"
"Hahaha, superior, we will still be your pawns!"
"Ascend, so do I!"
And with the drumming, the same clicking sound came from the distance,
"Huh? What is this sound?"
"Look!"
As he said that, many noble generals all looked towards the small phalanx that was slowly moving towards them in the distance.
Everyone's eyes widened, their mouths opened wide, and a lot of saliva even flowed out.
But now everything is out of control, so I just quietly look at the people coming from a distance.
They have seen plenty of elite soldiers, and there will definitely be no shortage of strong generals at their disposal.
In fact, even those people under their command are like wild horses running loose on the battlefield and tigers descending from the mountain, invincible and fearless of life and death.
But what is presented now is a different sense of beauty.
All the people marched in neat rows, and they had experienced even more,
But like these people in front of me, they lift their legs at the same time, land at the same time, the same height, the same distance, this...
They looked the same when they were standing, and they still maintained the same formation when they walked, and they couldn't even see the slightest change. This was simply... shocking.
