Two days before Wen Heng's wedding ceremony, Ling Chen went to Yong'an Palace to see Wen Heng, Wen Heng casually asked Ling Chen, "Your Majesty, I want to find two people who are compatible with our zodiac signs. Is there any suitable candidate for the ceremony?" ?”
"For this kind of thing, you can look for it. If the zodiac sign is suitable, just call me over. You don't need to ask me," the emperor replied casually.
Wen Heng was secretly happy.
Lan Ling lived in the hot spring for ten days. On the morning of the eleventh day, Zhang Bing, the guard sent by the palace, took him back to the palace. Tian Ming stopped Zhang Bing and asked, "Is it the emperor's imperial decree?"
"Eunuch Sun, it is said that the emperor has agreed to let the concubine Ling be the empress of the emperor and Concubine Yi. Hurry up, it's too late."
"There are so many people in the palace, why did they find the Concubine Ling?" Tian Ming was still puzzled, he knew the reason why the emperor sent the Concubine Ling to Qiushan.
"It's not appropriate to mention the zodiac signs. Only the zodiac signs of the concubine Ling and the emperor and concubine Yi are compatible."
Tian Ming was dubious, but he dared not go against this kind of thing.
It was already noon when Lan Ling returned to the palace, and she was hastily changed into a wedding dress before returning to Changxin Palace.
Only now did she realize that Ling Chen and Wen Heng were going to hold a wedding ceremony.
Tian Ming came back and wanted to report to the emperor, the ceremony was in progress, but the girl and eunuch stopped him, Tian Ming didn't dare to disturb.
The wedding ceremony is very grand.
Lan Ling looked at it, and it was a hundred times more grand than when he married Guan Yue and himself.
When Ling Chen married herself, she was dormant, everything was very low-key, and she married him one day with Guan Yue. Guan Yue was the main concubine, and Lan Ling was just a side concubine. Although it was also very lively, it was incomparable to what it is now .
The glory of a woman is given by a man, and Lan Ling deeply felt it.
The girl next to her said that the emperor gave Concubine Yi the favor of Jiaofang, which hadn't happened for many years.
The favorite of the pepper room? Lan Ling smiled. After all, she became an outsider.
She was changed into a festive dress, purple in color, embroidered with dark red wishful flowers, and the other bride turned out to be Seventh Princess Ling Shuang.
Ling Shuang looked at Lan Ling and was taken aback. "Sister Ling, why is it you? Didn't you go to Qiushan?"
"I was picked up." Lan Ling said lightly.
Her face was pale and she had applied rouge, but she couldn't hide the sadness in her heart.
"Sister-in-law Ling, if you are sad, just say it, this Xi Niang told her to find someone else!" Ling Shuang understood Lan Ling's mood.
"No, it's fine to have a look. After reading, let yourself give up." Isn't that what Wen Heng meant
What she and Ling Shuang have to do is when the emperor picks up the bride into the room, take the bride's burden, commonly known as holding a blessing, put the burden on the bed in the new room, and then stand by the bed, assisting the ceremonial bride to complete the following ceremony, Pick up the hijab, drink Hejiu wine, sprinkle dates, peanuts and chestnuts... .
There was joy and joy outside, and the gongs and drums shook the sky.
Ling Chen welcomed Wen Heng into the gate of Yong'an Palace.
Lan Ling and Ling Shuang stood at the door of the room, and she reached out to take the burden from Wen Heng's arms.
She saw Ling Chen wearing a purple robe embroidered with golden dragons, her eyes were burning. He helped the bride, Wen Heng, into the room slowly.
The ceremony officer sang melodiously the ceremony of worshiping heaven and earth.
Ling Chen turned his eyes and saw Lan Ling. He thought he was delusional, but when he took a closer look, it was really her. She was wearing a dark red dress, her hair was tied in a red coral hairpin, her face was pale, with a smile on her face, her brows were slightly wrinkled, and her eyes were scattered.
She had been staring at him, and as soon as she met his gaze, Lan Ling felt a sudden pain in her heart, and a faint sweetness welled up in her chest.
Hold back, you must hold back, this is their wedding ceremony, I can't be rude. Lan Ling secretly warned himself.
"Husband and wife worship!" When the ritual officer called the husband and wife to worship, Ling Chen lost his mind.
The Ritual Xi Niang next to him reminded him softly, and then he came back to his senses.
With a smile on the corner of Lan Ling's mouth, he stared at Ling Chen.
"If you don't feel well, go back first." Huo Jingyun's voice came from next to his ear.
Lan Ling looked up, and it was really him. "Brother, I'm fine."
"You have a bad complexion." Huo Jingyun's gentle voice.
"The ceremony is not over yet, I can't go back." Lan Ling's stubborn voice.
After worshiping heaven and earth, Wen Heng was sent into the bridal chamber, followed by Lan Ling and Ling Shuang.
"Why are you back?" Ling Chen asked Lan Ling.
"Back to the emperor, didn't the emperor ask the concubine to come back to be your bride?" Lan Ling replied in a low voice.
"Why are you looking for her? I sent her to Qiushan to recuperate, and you asked her to come back?" Ling Chen asked Wen Heng who was covering his head.
"Your Majesty, the concubine asked the emperor, and the emperor said that the concubine could figure it out on his own, and if anyone was suitable, he could just call over. The concubine asked the ceremonial officer to check the affiliation. The emperor belongs to the big dragon, the concubine belongs to the small dragon, and the concubine Ling She is a rooster, her zodiac sign is compatible with both of us, so I found her... .."
"Your Majesty, the auspicious time has come. Please take off your hijab and have a drink with your concubine." Etiquette Xi Niang reminded the emperor.
The emperor picked up Wen Heng's hijab with a scale, and Lan Ling held up the wine glass and handed it to the emperor and Wen Heng, watching the emperor and Wen Heng drink the wine together.
"Your Majesty, my concubine hopes to grow old with the emperor and be united forever. Please give me a bunch of hair from the emperor." Wen Heng cut his own hair and looked at Ling Chen with a smile.
Ling Chen pondered for a moment, then lowered his head slightly.
Wen Heng cut off a lock of Ling Chen's hair, braided two concentric knots, and put them under the pillow.
Lan Ling kept smiling on her face, but her hands were trembling slightly. She restrained herself hard to prevent the tears from welling up in her eyes. There was a dull pain in the chest, and the smell of blood became stronger and stronger.
Lan Ling, let's go. If you still want to live. Her heart was going crazy with jealousy.
We always want to grab something that doesn't belong to us, so we are covered with bruises.
Lan Ling spread the chestnuts, jujubes and peanuts under the mattress.
A fresh fragrance wafted from the newly cleaned walls, Ling Shuang touched it with her hand, put it in her hand and smelled it.
Lian Qiao looked at it and quickly said to Ling Shuang: "This is the pepper wall bestowed by the emperor, which means many children and many blessings."
"The emperor is really eccentric. I remember when the emperor married his sister-in-law..."
Before Ling Shuang could finish speaking, Lan Ling tugged at Ling Shuang's arm: "It's different now and then. He's the emperor now."
On the night of her wedding, he even beat her girl.
"Okay, the ceremony is over, you two go back."
He saw the moisture in her eyes.
"Brother Huang, this time we have to make a big fuss in the bridal chamber. There is no size on the wedding day, so sister-in-law is not allowed to be upset. Just now, Lao Han thought of a wonderful way to play!" The fifth prince, Han Zhitao, Lei Ze and others came in laughing.
Lan Ling saluted, lowered his head and stumbled out of the gate of Yong'an Palace.
When Han Zhitao saw Lan Ling, he froze for a moment, wanting to say hello to her, but Lan Ling hurried out without looking at him.
As soon as he got out of the gate, Lan Ling spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Sister-in-law Ling!" Ling Shuang called out, Ling Shuang wanted to go back to her room to find Ling Chen, but Lan Ling held her back.
"Send me back, hurry up!" She couldn't hold on any longer.
There was a burst of laughter in the room.
"Sister-in-law, my wish has finally come true, and I will perform an apple-biting show with my brother!" The fifth prince was very excited. He has always liked Wen Heng. He also knew every detail of Wen Heng and his fourth brother Ling Chen together.
Lan Ling was picked up by someone, she looked up, it was Huo Jingyun.
"Brother." Lan Ling called out.
"Don't talk, I'll take you back to your Changxin Palace." Huo Jingyun's face was warm and moist, his eyes were like black jade, bottomless.
