The wedding day arrived in a blink of an eye, and Qiantang City was filled with unprecedented grandeur! People of all ages came out to see the new prefect's wedding.
You know, when the new prefect first took office as Tongpan, many people found out that he was not married yet. How exciting it was! Those who have a little bit of wealth are looking for matchmakers to persuade them, and some people even bluntly say: they don’t want the main wife, but only the position of concubine!
Because in everyone's perception, no matter how prosperous Lu Mingyu is now, at heart he is still the dandy who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and he is still the libertine with a room of concubines at home.
I thought that after those who sought the position of head wives failed, those who only sought concubines would be successful, but I didn't expect that they were all rejected!
This makes no sense at all!
Later I learned that Lu Mingyu’s heart had long been trapped by a concubine in his yard!
It is said that in order to prove to the matchmaker that he was getting married, Lu Mingyu personally wrote the concubine release letter, just to marry her back as his wife!
What a touching love story this is~
Ever since, when someone expressed doubts about today's grand wedding, someone would be there to explain.
Therefore, when Zhao Changsu was among the crowd and heard the three or five people next to him talking about the steadfast love story of Lu Mingyu and Lin Wanyu, his face was unpredictable.
It was black for a while, green for a while, and thin smoke was faintly rising from the top of the head.
Aman also had a solemn look on his face after listening to it. He knew that Lu Mingyu was the wealthy businessman who provided them with food, grass and weapons that General Di often talked about. But he didn't expect that this great benefactor who helped them achieve success. , actually want to marry the master’s woman!
God, what kind of fun is this?
"Your Majesty...Master, why don't we go and take a look first? Maybe they have the same name?" Aman didn't even believe what he said!
He knew very well his master's feelings for the Lin family girl!
After finishing speaking, Amandu felt that he could hear the sound of his master grinding his teeth! Whenever he is worried about something that cannot be solved, he will grind his teeth, and the louder the teeth, the more serious it is!
If his inner world could be seen, Zhao Changsu felt that he would have gone crazy!
The woman he has longed for is getting married today?
No! He doesn't allow it!
But having just arrived in Qiantang, he didn't know where the Ming Mansion was. Asking pedestrians, they just said to follow this carriage, and they would have to circle the city three times in a while!
Circle the city three times! That is the proper etiquette that only princes and nobles of this dynasty can have when marrying their wives!
Does Lu Mingyu really think of himself as the local emperor of Qiantang?
Zhao Changsu's teeth grinding sound became louder!
But I had no choice but to silently follow the wedding team.
On the other side of Gaofuzhong, Lin Wanyu was dressing up.
In order for Lin Wanyu to have her natal family to rely on, Lu Mingyu made the Gao family her support, but he did not expect that it would be self-defeating. According to custom, it is best for the couple not to see each other three days before the wedding.
Therefore, Lu Mingyu only stayed with Lin Wanyu for seven days, and then had to watch Lin Wanyu move into the palace to get married.
This morning, Mrs. Gao personally combed Lin Wanyu's hair.
"One comb to the end, two combs to the level of the eyebrows, three combs to cover all the children and grandchildren."
Touching Lin Wanyu's black and smooth hair, Mrs. Gao couldn't help but blushing: "I have always dreamed of combing my daughter's hair to get married. Today, my dream finally came true."
Lin Wanyu later learned that Mrs. Gao's daughter had died shortly after birth and had never been pregnant again. This became an indelible regret in her heart.
She turned around, held Mrs. Gao's hand in her palm, pondered for a while, and called out: "Mother."
The sweet voice made Mrs. Gao feel dazed for a moment, as if the girl in front of her was her former child.
Lin Wanyu threw herself into Mrs. Gao's arms, feeling the sincere love of a mother for her child.
Today was a good day. She didn't mind satisfying Mrs. Gao in this way. She believed that her mother would also approve of her doing so.
Finally, with Mrs. Gao full of tears, she covered Lin Wanyu with the mandarin duck red hijab.
Lu Mingyu came on horseback and was stopped by relatives and friends at the gate of Gaofu.
The first person to take the lead was Gao Tong, that thief boy. He winked at Lu Mingyu with his panda eyes after being beaten by Li Peirou: "Call me brother-in-law to come and listen?"
Lu Mingyu always ignored Gao Tong as he was unreasonable. He stretched out a big palm and slapped the boy away: "Be careful, I will make you completely wifeless!"
Oops, this won't work.
Gao Tong felt aggrieved and had to give way.
Next came the many business partners, who were much more polite to Lu Mingyu, pouring out kind words and auspicious words in a steady stream as if they wanted no money.
finally! After passing all these tests, Lu Mingyu came to the front hall and bid farewell to his parents with Lin Wanyu.
Although the two parents were temporary, the Gao couple still said a few auspicious words, and Mrs. Gao even put a green jade bracelet on Lin Wanyu's hand from her wrist.
Lin Wanyu was very grateful and was about to refuse, but Mrs. Gao seemed to be able to foresee it and pressed Lin Wanyu's hand: "Good child, just treat it as a child given to me as a mother."
In this way, Lin Wanyu couldn't refuse, so she thanked her and walked out of Gao's house with Lu Mingyu holding the red silk.
"Get in the sedan chair——"
Lin Wanyu was supported by Bai Lu and carefully climbed into the eight-carrying sedan.
"Girl, please circle the city three times in a moment. If you are hungry or thirsty, just tell me. I will wait by the sedan chair." Bai Lu whispered.
Lin Wanyu nodded.
After sitting down, the sedan chair was lifted, and the sound of festive musical instruments came, which relieved Lin Wanyu's nervousness this morning.
Thinking that she would soon become Lu Mingyu's bride, she felt that her heart was filled to the brim.
But just as the week around the city ended and the second week began, Lin Yunyu, who was sitting in the sedan chair, and Lu Mingyu, who was riding horses outside, felt a chill at the same time.
It was as if someone was looking at them with an indescribable look.
Lin Wanyu covered her chest and kept taking deep breaths, while Lu Mingyu, who was outside, called Shi Shi to follow him: "Go and check the surrounding area, don't let go of any suspicious person."
It's not that he is overly nervous, it's that over the years, Lu Mingyu has made more and more enemies. In addition, Lu Zhang is barefoot and is not afraid of wearing shoes, so he must be cautious and cautious.
As a result, Zhao Changsu, who was just about to rob people directly, couldn't find a breakthrough.
"I didn't expect him to be so cautious." Aman put away the newly unsheathed sword, "Master, seeing that there are experts protecting this team, we don't have enough manpower, I'm afraid..."
Zhao Changsu nodded: "You go find the two posts, we sneak into the Ming Mansion, wait until they finish worshiping, and then start the robbery at night."
Aman breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, the master is still calm.
But he didn't see Zhao Changsu Yin's fists clenched in his sleeves until veins bulged.
After three rounds of the city, the wedding procession arrived at the Ming Mansion happily, followed by a long line of people who came to join in the fun, waiting for people from the Ming Mansion to scatter wedding candies and copper coins.
Amidst the showers of wedding candies and copper coins, Xiniang shouted: "The bride gets off the sedan -"
Lu Mingyu got off the horse, came to the sedan with a smile, stretched out his hand to pick up Lin Wanyu, and then picked her up in his arms amidst everyone's exclamations, and strode into the gate of the Ming Mansion.
Not to mention that Lin Wanyu's heart was about to jump out of her chest, even Zhao Changsu, who had just received the post not far away, was also speechless!
How dare he!
Zhao Changsu felt like his heart was being hurt!
The etiquette of worshiping in the church is complicated, but fortunately, Xiniang is there to remind them that there are rules for when and what steps to take, and a few auspicious words must be said every time they walk, which means a happy yearning for a happy married life for the rest of their lives.
Lu Mingyu and Lin Wanyu held one end of the red silk in each hand, and with the blessings of everyone, they moved forward slowly, and finally bowed to Gaotang Heaven and Earth three times.
But just when he was about to bend down for the third prayer, a "Wait a minute!" broke this beautiful and harmonious scene.
Lu Zhang didn't know how he rushed in. He pointed at Lin Wanyu and said loudly and quickly: "She is not a daughter of the Lin family at all, let alone a daughter of the Gao family. Her name is Lin Wanyu, and she is a traitor..."
Lu Zhang appeared suddenly. He rushed in almost unprepared and shouted loudly. By the time Lu Mingyu reacted, it was already too late. Besides, he was the groom. According to etiquette, he was not allowed to leave the red silk during the ceremony. This was all he could do. Lu Zhang watched helplessly as his saliva flew everywhere.
But just after Lu Zhang said the words "Queen of the traitors", his voice suddenly stopped, and then a mouthful of blood spurted out.
It turned out that someone gave Lu Zhang a sword behind his back and stopped him from talking, but just like that, the happy event was stained with blood.
Lu Zhang fell down softly, blood gushing out from his body, and he died almost painlessly.
The guests who were originally happy were immediately frightened and backed away, fearing that this man would suddenly become animalistic and accidentally hurt themselves.
With the crowd gone, Lu Mingyu could clearly see the person who had drawn the sword.
He was a stranger, but he had a violent aura that could not be acquired by having never killed anyone.
Although people helped him, it was not auspicious for him to be stained with blood after all, plus the frosty look on his face and the hand holding the sword hilt tightly...
Lu Mingyu felt something was wrong.
Lin Wanyu heard Lu Zhang's words and everyone's exclamations. She instinctively lifted the red hijab and saw the person she thought she would never see again in this life.
Time seems to have stood still.
In the space that was vacated for them when everyone retreated, there were only three of them looking at each other.
One looked at the newlyweds indifferently, as if looking at enemies.
One inquiry makes it impossible to tell whether the person coming is an enemy or a friend.
Shocked, memories of the past swept through her face.
Finally...is it here?
Why today?
Lu Mingyu noticed that the visitor's eyes seemed to be focused on his side, and Lin Wanyu was also looking back at him steadily. The complexity, entanglement and despair in his eyes were something he had never seen before.
No, I've seen it before.
He thought he knew who it was.
Almost instinctively, Lu Mingyu protected Lin Wanyu behind him, pretending not to recognize him and said politely: "Brother, you are a guest from afar, but this..."
"What, do you want to arrest me?"
