When Gao pragmatic came out of Dongchang and rushed to the palace to watch the ceremony, it was already a little late. ℃八 ℃八 ℃Read ℃书,.■.o↑
It was Zhu Yijun's request that he come to watch the ceremony today. The reason was unknown. Gao Wuzhen felt unhappy on his forehead and didn't bother to think about it.
When he came, part of the ceremony had already been carried out. Princess Yongning had already been demoted. The queen had asked her concubine to send her to the door of the inner hall, and the princess immediately ascended the chariot.
A large group of ministers watching the ceremony followed the princess's phoenix chariot to the inner east gate, and the princess descended the chariot.
For the first time, Gao pragmatic saw Liang Banggrui, who was actually a dead man in his eyes.
This guy seemed to be well-groomed, if not for his obviously pale complexion. But now, even if you can tell at a glance that you have put powder on your face, you still can't hide your illness.
Liang Bangrui seemed to have some discomfort in his throat, so he coughed a few times, stepped forward to lift the curtain, and the princess was led into the sedan chair by her concubine. Liang Bangrui stood aside and stood in awe.
Because she was wearing a phoenix crown and scarlet hijab, Gao Jingshi couldn't see Princess Yongning's expression, but her movements were obviously very stiff. Only a blind person wouldn't be able to tell.
However, Gao pragmatically looked around and saw that all the ministers and dignitaries watching the ceremony had normal expressions and even smiles on their faces. They seemed to be okay with it. They must have just thought that the princess was nervous about her wedding.
At this time, the person holding the goose knelt down to teach Liang Bangrui the goose. Liang Bangrui accepted the goose and then knelt down to the inner envoy. The inner messenger kneels down to receive it, and then gives it to the left and right.
Liang Bangrui bowed again, and sweat actually appeared on his forehead. Gao Pingshi stared at his expression carefully and couldn't help but snorted when he saw that he seemed to be forcibly enduring something.
According to the rules of the ceremony, Liang Bangrui should ride back on his own horse at this time. However, he walked to the horse, grabbed the reins with one hand, and stepped on the stirrup with one foot. He tried his best twice in a row, but he was stunned and couldn't get up. ⊙√八⊙√八⊙√Read ⊙√ books, .2●≥
Chengguo Gong Zhu Yingzhen, who was standing next to Gao Pangshi, frowned and said: "What's going on with this consort? He doesn't have any strength at such a young age?"
That is, even Zhu Yingzhen, the Duke of the country, can easily mount a horse, and even mount a war horse. Not to mention whether his riding skills are good enough for fighting, at least the action of mounting a horse will not be a problem. He thinks that he has every reason to question Liang Bangrui.
Zhang Yuangong made a sound on the side and said with some disdain: "Maybe he thought he had finally jumped over the dragon's gate, so he was too excited. It's really superficial."
Hey, you two really don't have the slightest fondness for the prince-in-law. Why? Don't the children of the aristocratic family look down upon this kind of people who climb up to the dragon and follow the phoenix?
Liang Bangrui couldn't get on the horse, and the eunuchs nearby had no choice but to step forward and give him a hand - not a hand, after all, this action cannot be done by hand, but actually a hand, but there are also troubles with the hand, and he can only hold his buttocks. This... is a bit indecent.
But there's no way, the ceremony can't be stuck here. If he doesn't leave, he won't be able to follow the procedure.
So Liang Bangrui, the consort Liang, with the help of two eunuchs holding his buttocks hard, finally got on the horse out of breath. He spent a while to calm down his breath before riding off.
Originally, he was supposed to ride the horse and go by himself, but after what happened just now, the eunuchs were a little worried that this guy would fall to death on the road, so they simply sent someone to hold the horse for him - in fact, the main purpose was to see that he didn't fall off. Dismounted.
Gao Pingshi sighed and looked towards the princess's phoenix chariot. Unfortunately, the princess was already in the phoenix chariot and he couldn't see anything. A lingering regret wandered in his empty heart.
After Liang Bangrui left, the princess set off in the carriage. The princes and officials who were watching the ceremony and the queen's chosen wife traveled together to send the princess to the princess mansion.
Liang Bangrui was already waiting in front of the mansion. When the princess arrived, Liang Bangrui stepped forward to lift the curtain again.
The princess descended into the chariot, and the two of them went to the ancestral hall together. Liang Bangrui is in the east, and the princess is in the west. They all pay homage again.
The next step is to enter the title, read the blessing, and then worship again.
After that, they went out and went to the dormitory together, but this time it was not to consummate the marriage, but to salute. There is a princess's seat in the room. Liang Bangrui must first salute the princess, then face each other and bow again. They each sit down, with Liang Bangrui sitting in the east and the princess sitting in the west. The waiter entered the meal and joined Ning Ruyi, and the two of them faced each other and bowed again.
The ceremony is basically completed here. According to the rules, you should see your uncle tomorrow. Roughly speaking, my uncle is sitting in the east, facing west. At that time, the princess stood in the west, facing east, and bowed four times. My uncle bowed twice. Then ten days later, it was time for the prince-in-law to go to court to thank him, and he had to perform five salutes at that time.
In fact, this set of rituals was not established like this from the early Ming Dynasty. In the ninth year of Hongwu, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang took Li Qi, the son of Taishi Li Shanchang, as his consort, Princess Shang Lin'an.
The ritual note at that time was to inform the first palace in advance, and two days before the wedding, the princess was ordered to be registered. The next day after the registration, he visited the Xian Palace again, and ordered the prince-in-law to receive the imperial edict. The officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs received the imperial edict and ordered him to set up a dragon pavilion. He went to the Taishi Mansion and the emperor-in-law paid homage to him. The next day, Shanchang and his consort thanked him. Ten days later, the wedding date begins.
In the 26th year of Hongwu, this ritual note was slightly changed. However, although the etiquette notes existed, the ceremony of worshiping the uncle and the princess's consort was not practiced in the Ming Dynasty. After another year, the titles of the princess and princess, the wedding, and the rankings of the consort and guests will be updated.
In the second year of Hongzhi, Princess Renhe was conferred and the wedding ceremony was re-arranged. The situation at that time was "When entering the palace, the princess and her consort worshiped the heaven and the earth together, and performed eight salutes. In the hall, the princess's seat was placed in the east, facing west, and the consort's seat faced east, as before."
In the second year of Jiajing's reign, Gong Ke told An Pan and others about the matter: "The prince-in-law met the princess and bowed four times, and the princess sat down to receive two bows. Although noble and humble are different people, the husband and wife are separated, so they are uneasy about etiquette."
Jiajing was not a man of words, so he naturally refused to listen, so the prince-in-law still had to bow to the princess when he saw her.
However, later there was a "Benevolent Lord" who was very good at speaking out on this kind of matter, and that was Emperor Chongzhen.
In the first year of Chongzhen, Chen Zhongsheng, the person in charge of teaching the Prince Consort, said: "All the ministers were studying the Prince Consort Gong Yonggu. The Prince Consort bowed four times on the platform outside the mansion gate at dawn. After three months, he went to the hall, to the door, and to the screen wall, and saluted as before. Then he started to look at it. The meal was served in front of the princess, with the princess eating and drinking on top, and the consort standing by. After passing by, the marriage was discussed. The consort gave fruit and food to the courtiers, and the princess responded with gifts and gave them in writing. It was very rude. When the husband married, they looked like a couple, and they knelt down and worshiped several times. In the month of the month, you serve as a minister and then get married? According to the "Hui Dian", four bows are made before the He's Day, and there is no bow after the He's Day. If you are a nephew of the emperor's palace, you will be serving as a servant, how can you respect the imperial court? "
The result was "The emperor kept his word and ordered Yonggu to choose a day to get married." - This system has been in place for more than two hundred years. When the sage Chongzhen came to him, he changed it as soon as he said it. He was very good at listening to the advice of civil servants. The only problem is that the civil servants don't seem to appreciate it and try to trick him into trying to support him.
Originally, the ceremony could be completed smoothly, and the eunuchs who knew what was going on last night were relieved. Who knew that a change would happen at this moment.
The dignitaries and officials who were watching the ceremony were originally planning to disperse. Liang Bangrui finished the salute with sweat on his forehead. He just got up and turned around to say a few polite words to the dignitaries who were watching the ceremony. Unexpectedly, his expression suddenly changed drastically. , his face twisted twice, he coughed suddenly, and a mouthful of blood spurted out!
The whole court was in an uproar! 11
