At the end of the day, all the procedures have been gone through, and the rest are the guests of the banquet.
Chu Qingyan returned to the palace to change her wedding dress and put on a phoenix robe and a phoenix crown.
At the beginning of the banquet, the emperor and the empress sat together on the main seat, and the civil and military officials and their families sat on both sides, congratulating and presenting gifts to the most distinguished couple in Xixuan.
Xiao Yao and Xiao Hou were the first to present congratulatory gifts, one was a painting of Guanyin to send children, and the other was a pot of jade and lotus, the meaning of which is self-evident.
After the two of them stepped back, they suddenly sang outside.
"The envoy of the State of Shang presents a congratulatory gift."
Everyone was astonished, Xixuan and Shangguo couldn't get to one side, how could they give gifts
At this time, an elegant civil official came in and saluted, "Xiaguan has come to congratulate His Majesty Xixuan and the Queen on their 100-year marriage on the orders of Princess Qing and Consort Yi of our country."
Speaking of the elegant civil servant, he waved his hand, and the subordinate who followed behind him stepped forward with a gift box.
There are precious jade Ruyi, the rare pearl of the East China Sea, exquisite gold tea sets and silver tea sets, so small that there are even rattles.
"My concubine said that they should have come in person, but they couldn't get away because of something temporarily, so we can only meet next time. In order to make up for not being able to be present in person this time, the concubine said that he would give 10,000 dans of rice. As long as your majesty and the queen keep his little nephew fat and plump."
The officer withdrew after speaking.
Chu Qingyan twitched the corners of her mouth. With so much food, do you want Ankang to eat into a ball
"Why didn't Lingfeng and Qingqing come over?" she asked the person beside her in a low voice.
Xiao Xu coughed lightly, "He's going to be a father again."
puff-
This is too survivable, right
Don't blame the big ice cube's expression of hesitating words just now, Chu Qingyan really wanted to give Yi Lingfeng a compliment.
She couldn't bear to think too much, and someone else came in.
"The envoy of the Jiang state presents a congratulatory gift."
An old man dressed in Jiang Guo's surrender walked in, followed by a man holding a gift box.
"The old minister was ordered by the lord to come to congratulate His Majesty Xixuan and the Empress on their marriage, and at the same time thank the Empress for her wholehearted help, so I present a congratulatory gift and wish the two of you happiness."
Said that the people in the first row behind them opened the gift boxes one by one, all of which were precious and priceless gifts.
"Because Princess Yao just gave birth to the little princess, she couldn't come to congratulate in person, so the old minister also entrusted Princess Yao and Tang's concubine to congratulate them."
When the words fell, the rest of the gift boxes were opened, from the silk and satin to the children's dolls, all of which were exquisite and careful.
Although Chu Qingyan regretted that none of these friends could be present to witness her happiness in person, she was also very happy to learn that they were living so happily now.
After thanking the envoys of the two countries one by one, the smile on Chu Qingyan's face lingered for a long time.
The gifts from these two countries surprised everyone present. They did not expect that their empress and empress had such a wide network of contacts. To be more precise, everyone thought that this Empress Chu had no wealth background. okay? Friends are all over the country, and they are all powerful lords. Their majesty really married a golden treasure! Who dares to break ground on the queen's head in the future, is it just courting death
However, just when everyone thought it was over, someone sang.
"The Jiangnan Huajia sent a congratulatory gift."
Jiangnan flower home? Could it be the family of the richest man in Xixuan
A gorgeous men's outfit in the flower sleeves appeared in front of everyone, which was different from the women's clothes for marriage today. This can't be discounted.
Now that Xixuan is in vain, it is precisely when silver taels are needed. As soon as the flower sleeves make a move, they will directly send real gold and silver, three million taels of silver, and the entire hall trembles three times in an instant.
In the flower sleeve is the young owner of the Hua family, the future heir, and her words and deeds represent the entire Hua family. She directly stated that it was a congratulatory gift to the queen. It goes without saying that her position was to stand on the queen's side. Who dares to say that the queen has no money and no power? Slap in the face for a minute, okay
Chu Qingyan was surprised that her friend would make such a big deal. At this time, her friend winked at her, as if to say, this is your money!
In the past few years, the business of continuing the product has been getting better and better, and it has expanded to neighboring countries. It is a lot of money, so it can be said that it is all her money.
Turn around and sit at the table without delaying the flower sleeves, and don't delay the gift-giving session of others.
"The Moon Palace Gate presents a gift."
"A gift from Lanzhuang."
The next two were completely beyond Chu Qingyan's expectations, and the people beside her sat like a bell, as if not surprised at all. It seemed that he already knew it.
Lanzhuang came from Shanguang, and he sent 10,000 horses.
This gift is simply too thoughtful. After the wars last year, the troops and horses suffered heavy losses, and now they can be replenished.
And Xuanxi Zimo came to the Moon Palace Gate. After he also said the blessing, he presented a gift box, but the gift box was not opened.
Chu Qingyan wanted to ask where his master was, but because of the occasion, he could only keep it in his heart.
In just a short while, the congratulations received by the empress were enough to match Xixuan's ten years of treasury income. Everyone present looked at the superior Chu Qingyan, as if they were looking at Brin Brin's cash cow. Jinbao!
No wonder Master Xujian gave such a high evaluation. It turns out that this new post's connections are not only spread across other countries, but also among the people and all corners of the world!
Empress Dowager, are you still missing leg hangers? The kind that will be cute!
Chu Qingyan looked at everyone's sparkling eyes, tilted her head and asked the people around her, "Will no one stop me from walking sideways in the future?"
Xiao Xu smiled and looked at her dotingly, "Who dares to stop you when I am there?"
She seemed to have taken a mouthful of honey, her mouth full of sweetness, but she still raised her eyebrows and laughed, "What if you bullied me?"
"How could I bully you? It's too late to pamper you and love you! Besides, you have so many backings, that's what I should be worried about." Xiao Xu held her hand and rubbed his fingers lightly, showing his love and pity. .
Chu Qingyan snickered, "Don't worry, I won't bully you casually!"
Xiao Xu's eyes brightened, and he squinted at her with a sly smile, "I don't mind your bullying, such as tonight's wedding night."
Chu Qingyan's face suddenly turned red, how could this person say such a serious thing in such a serious way!
"There are so many people here, calm down!"
"So you mean, when we go back and no one else, I can do whatever I want?"
"… "
shameless!
"Can I go back? Can I return it?"
"This item has been sold and will not be returned!"
"… "
shameless!
**It was unbearable, the red candle was burned out, and the red waves were turned over. This feeling lasted until dawn.
Life and death are bound together, talk to Zicheng. Holding the hand of the son, grow old together with the son.
As long as you are willing to wait with your heart, the happiness you want will come.
