On the third day after the end of the flower viewing party, the eunuch in the palace came to Nan'an Hou's Mansion to announce the decree, and the emperor and queen had chosen Nan'an Hou's daughter Lu Niantao as the prince's concubine. Also selected at the same time as her is the daughter of a military commander.
The eunuch who came to the mansion to announce the good news said that the prince and Lu Niantao met in the garden before the flower viewing party began. Lu Niantao lost a sachet, and when he was looking for it, he met the prince. He was indifferent and quiet.
"His Royal Highness's eyes can be picky. Miss Lu Er is really a blessing, and she will surely dominate the East Palace in the future."
Lin Qingyu was amused. This kind of blessing turned out to be really eager for some people.
However, although the side concubine is respected in status, she is only a noble concubine in the final analysis. The queen asked the Qintian Supervisor to choose a lucky day, and that was when he would use two sedan chairs to take people into the East Palace.
Lu Niantao's entry into the East Palace was set in January, and time was in a hurry. The Liang family, who had been idle for a long time, finally got busy, arranging the dowry for his daughter up and down. Because of her daughter, Nan'an Hou’s attitude towards the Liang family has also eased a lot, and other people in the Hou Mansion are rushing to please the main house—the second lady will soon become the prince’s side concubine, and when the prince becomes a concubine, she will be at least a concubine. , If the prince is born in the future, the future will be unlimited. Now who dares to neglect.
As soon as Liang gained confidence, the good stuff in the warehouse was to move box by box to the main house. It was painful to see Huantong. He also thought that the young master could divide the family property when he left the Hou Mansion. "Master, I just heard the treasury manager say that the lady even took away the Jiangnan silk that the queen rewarded Xiaohou!"
Lin Qingyu didn't care: "Let them take it." He hoped that Lu Niantao could cut a few more clothes to win Xiao Teng's favor. It was best to have fun with her every night, and finally die on her.
He knew his thoughts were too sinister, but Xiao Wei was worth it.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day when Lu Niantao got married.
In auspicious hour, Nan'anhou and Liang were sitting in the upper seat of the main hall, and the elders of the Lu clan were on both sides. Among Lu Niantao's generation, only Lu Wancheng was in a wheelchair, and the others were standing.
Not long after, Feng Guanxia's Lu Niantao walked with Xi Niang's support. The wedding dress of the crown prince's side concubine came from the court of the palace, graceful and elegant, and Bi Lin Qingyu's wedding dress was more than a little bit gorgeous. Lu Niantao wears a golden hairpin and phoenix crown, a bead curtain falls on her head, and a flower tin is painted between her eyebrows.
Lu Wancheng thought of a big event, and said to Lin Qingyu: "Qingyu, did you have a flower tint on your forehead on the wedding night?"
"It's more than Huatian," Lin Qingyu said blankly, "I also put on makeup."
Lu Wancheng slapped the armrest of the wheelchair: "Damn it, how could I sleep at the time."
Lu Niantao walked to his parents and knelt down and prostrated: "Daughters are not filial and can't serve their parents. Please father and mother receive me three prayers in return for nurturing."
Liang helped her daughter up in tears, and was about to speak, when a steward hurriedly said: "Master, the prince is here, saying that she is here to meet her!"
When the words fell, the hall immediately became chaotic.
Just take a side concubine, according to the etiquette, the prince only needs to wait for someone to arrive in the East Palace. He came to pick him up in person, and he really gave enough face to the Nan'an Houfu.
The Lu clan expressed joy to Nan'an Hou: "His Royal Highness is so fond of the side concubine, this is the blessing of my Lu clan!"
"In this battle, it's nothing more than a nap concubine or a big wedding."
At this time, Nan'anhou did not forget to speak and act carefully: "Don't talk nonsense. A wife is a wife, and a concubine is a concubine. How can the two be compared. Wait and let me welcome your Highness."
Lu Nian's face under the peach beads changed, and Xi Niang blocked her with a hijab.
Lin Qingyu said, "Shall we go."
Lu Wancheng smiled coldly: "Go. Anyway, it's my cousin, who has taken in my sister, so please go and say hi anyway."
Lin Qingyu pushed Lu Wancheng and followed everyone to the gate of the Hou Mansion. Xiao Wei did not ride on horseback like an ordinary bridegroom to welcome his relatives. He sat in the sedan chair of the prince. Nan'an Hou did not see him get up when he arrived. It was not so much to welcome the relatives, but to show his status. In Lu Wancheng's words, it was: I started to pretend again.
Nan'anhou led a large family to salute him. Xiao Wei said "free of gifts" slowly, and found Lin Qingyu and Lu Wancheng next to him accurately in the crowd, and then he walked out of the sedan chair with an interesting smile at the corner of his mouth.
Xi Niang helped Lu Niantao step out the threshold, sending Lu Niantao to Xiao Teng like a normal marriage. Xiao Teng only paused for a while, and said, "That's how I helped my concubine get on the sedan chair."
Xi Niang was startled, not daring to ask more, and took Lu Niantao onto Xi Sedan chair. Xiao Yan walked straight to Lu Wancheng and said, "The cousin has been ill for a long time, and both the queen mother and the lonely are worried. I don't know if my cousin is getting better recently."
Lu Wancheng smiled and said, "Nothing gets better, I'm afraid I will make His Royal Highness continue to worry."
Xiao Yan leaned down, speaking to Lu Wancheng, but looked at Lin Qingyu: "Cousin don't worry, after you go, Lonely will take good care of Xiao Qingyu for you."
"'Xiao Qingyu'." Lu Wancheng laughed softly, "I'm a little curious, what would your Royal Highness call that Gangna concubine-Xiao Taotao?"
Xiao Teng squinted his eyes displeasedly: "Cousin has the strength to talk and laugh, so it's better to save and raise your body. After all, when a person dies, everything is over."
Lu Wancheng smiled slightly: "Your Highness can rest assured. As long as I don't say the end, nothing will end."
Xiao Wei straightened up, took a deep look at Lin Qingyu, then turned and said, "Go back to the palace."
The family sending off the family gradually moved away, Nan'anhou and Liang clan were busy greeting the Lu clan, Lin Qingyu and Lu Wancheng did not join in the excitement and returned to the Blue Wind Pavilion.
Lin Qingyu frowned and said, "Xiao Wei already has Lu Niantao, why..."
"Why look at you with that disgusting look?" Lu Wancheng sold Guanzi, "Do you know what people who like to find substitutes have in common."
"Say."
Lu Wancheng said contemptuously: "They like to ignore what they have already obtained, and are always eager to get what they can't get. If you had followed him early in the morning, he would not have such a great interest in you. But now, you have become. The first person who dared to reject him, of course he will treat you differently."
Lin Qingyu's brows furrowed tighter: "Isn't this a bad idea."
Lu Wancheng smiled and said, "That's right, it's guilty-cough."
Lu Wancheng coughed again and couldn't stop it. Lin Qingyu patted him on the back and said, "Go to sleep for a while."
After drinking the medicine, Lu Wancheng fell asleep. Hualu walked in from the outside and looked around and said, "Young Master, where is Young Master?"
"Just fell asleep. What?"
Hualu lowered her voice: "The fierce buddy is here."
Xiuchang is a shop that sells funeral materials. Lin Qingyu chose the oldest house in Beijing. This house has been inherited for a hundred years before the establishment of the dynasty. In addition to the sale of goods, the gangster can also arrange funeral ceremonies for the guests. As long as they have the money, they can have a great funeral.
Lin Qingyu glanced towards the inner room and asked, "Where is the person."
"Waiting at the gate of the mansion." Hualu said, "he said, today the Hou Mansion is holding a wedding, it is inconvenient for him to enter the mansion, so as not to bring bad luck."
Lin Qingyu met the fierce man at the entrance of the Hou Mansion. Although he was doing funeral business, he was a lively and cheerful man: "You can ask for anything from Young Master. I will do my best to do this funeral for the Hou Mansion. ."
Lin Qingyu had never done a funeral before, so she couldn't help but feel a little at a loss. He looked at the "Happy" on the gate of the Hou Mansion and the red silk ribbon hanging under the eaves. He thought for a long time and said, "Just do what he likes."
During this period, Lu Wancheng slept a lot and woke up a lot, coughing and waking up every time he slept for less than an hour. Wake up and sleep, the day will pass.
This time he woke up in the evening. He saw Lin Qingyu sitting by his bed, guarding him quietly, and the setting sun coated him with a warm afterglow.
A ghost appeared in front of Lu Wancheng, and he subconsciously called: "Qingyu..."
Lin Qingyu said, "I am."
Lu Wancheng asked in a daze, "Is there any news from the East Palace?"
Lin Qingyu was silent.
The spice comes in from the nose, and it is a day's work to achieve the desired effect. Without three to five months, it is difficult to see results.
"Don't talk about this first." Lin Qingyu said warmly, "Wan Cheng, what color do you like?"
Lu Wancheng was stunned, as if he had realized something, and smiled and said, "If it was me before, I would wear more black, white and gray. But if it was in Dayu, I would like to wear red and look good with long hair."
Lin Qingyu nodded: "Okay."
"By the way, is Doctor Lin preparing for me?" Lu Wancheng smiled and said, "It doesn't matter anything else, but can I pick the coffin by myself."
"...Why."
Lu Wancheng joked: "I want to pick one that is comfortable to sleep."
