"This...I don't know about this~!"
In fact, not only Li Jingchu was a little confused, but Wang Renbiao was also confused, because he didn't know much more than Li Jingchu. But suddenly, Wang Renbiao remembered that day when his father and mother were about to "beat the couple" completely. The letter to Li Zexuan arrived in time and completely changed Princess Tong'an's and Wang Yu's attitude towards the marriage. Combined with the fact that Li Zexuan now called Li Jingchu his adopted sister, Wang Renbiao suddenly seemed to realize something. He paused and looked at Li Jingchu whispered:
"I may know some secrets about this matter. I will tell you in detail tonight. It's better to pay your respects now!"
"okay!"
Li Jingchu nodded.
Today, the important guests of the Governor's Mansion were actually seated inside the house, the less important guests were seated in the front yard, and the "pure passers-by" were seated on the flowing seats outside the Governor's Mansion.
In the main hall of the Governor's Mansion, all the guests sitting here are very important to the Wang family and Wang Renbiao. There are people from the Lu family of Fan Yang, people from the Li family of Zhao County, representatives sent by the Xiangzhou Governor to attend the wedding banquet, and others. A member of the royal family on the fringes of the court, the future King of Chiang Li Yun was Li Er's seventh son.
After all, Princess Tong'an was born in the Li Tang royal family, and Wang Renbiao is her son, so he is naturally half of the royal family. Now that Wang Renbiao is getting married, the royal family will definitely send someone over, but none of the favored princes have come over, and Li Er only They sent Li Yun, a prince on the fringes of the court, because the national war was imminent and Li Chengqian, Li Ke, Li Tai and others all had important matters to attend to. How could they have time to come all the way to attend a wedding
But even so, this is already a great favor to Princess Tong'an and Wang Yu. If Li Er hadn't had a good relationship with Princess Tong'an, his aunt, he probably wouldn't have sent the prince to congratulate him in person!
"Uncle Shi, when did Renbiao's bride become the adopted sister of Marquis Yongan?"
In the main hall, Lu Chengqing couldn't help but was slightly startled when he heard the singing of the Governor Shi outside the room. Then he smiled and asked Wang Yu, holding his hands.
After he finished speaking, Li Jingxuan, Li Yun and other guests all turned their attention here. Obviously, they were also very interested in this matter!
The reason why the Lu family of Fan Yang and the Li family of Zhaojun sent their direct descendants to attend Wang Renbiao's wedding banquet this time was because, firstly, although they didn't know why Wang Renbiao married a commoner woman, now Wang Yu and Princess Tong'an are both in Qi. Zhouzhou, in a sense, this wedding banquet represents the Wang family, because Wang Yu is the contemporary head of the Wang family! The seven major families are connected by the same spirit. Now that there are three missing families from the seven major families, the other three families except the royal family should help each other, so they must come to this wedding banquet;
Secondly, they came here for Wang Renbiao this time. Anyone with a discerning eye knows why the three major families of the Cui family of Qinghe, the Cui family of Boling, and the Zheng family of Xingyang have become a passing thing. Is it not because of Li Zexuan? If it were not for Li Zexuan, it is very likely that these three major families would have occupied Henan Province and become kings, becoming the country within the country of the Tang Dynasty. They definitely have the strength! And Li Zexuan is now even more prosperous in the court. Not only was he awarded the title of Marquis at a young age, he was also named the governor of a state more than a month ago. He has completely become a high official in the border area. The Lu family has a profound background and numerous followers. , Li family, at this time, they can only avoid the edge for the time being!
As for revenge for the Cui family and the Zheng family? If you think too much, only a fool would do something like this that is not beneficial to you! The aristocratic families are united, but no family would risk their life and death for another family!
In this case, the Lu family and the Cui family not only will not deal with Li Zexuan, but they hope to get along with Li Zexuan and form a good relationship so that Li Zexuan will not become hostile to them. If you can't beat them, then join. This is a very simple reason. After all, they don't want to be like the Cui family and the Zheng family and just say no!
There are rumors among the people that Li Zexuan and Wang Renbiao have a good personal relationship. Big families like the Fanyang Lu family and the Zhaojun Li family have their own news channels. The information they know is undoubtedly more comprehensive. For example, Wang Renbiao bought a stake in the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce and sent troops privately. Going to Longmen Pass to support Li Zexuan, etc., they all know these things that are difficult for ordinary people to know! Because of this, they came to Wang Renbiao's wedding banquet. While establishing a good relationship with the Wang family, they also had the opportunity to use the Wang family to get in touch with Li Zexuan!
But now they actually heard the news that Li Jingchu was Li Zexuan's adopted sister. How could Lu Chengqing and Li Jingxuan not be surprised and surprised
Wang Renbiao is Li Zexuan's good brother, and the person Wang Renbiao married turned out to be Li Zexuan's adopted sister. Lu Chengqing and Li Jingxuan now have every reason to suspect that the Taiyuan Wang family and Li Zexuan have been completely tied to the same chariot. The relationship between the two is much stronger than they previously expected!
It turned out that a "traitor" had already appeared in the family, which made Lu Chengqing and Li Jingxuan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on their backs, because God knew that when the Boling Cui family and the Qinghe Cui family had been destroyed, and the Xingyang Zheng family had been destroyed, there were Without the Taiyuan Wang family secretly adding fuel to the flames
In just this moment, many thoughts flashed through the minds of Lu Chengqing and Li Jingxuan! It's not that they have delusions of being persecuted, but that with the gradual consolidation of Li Tang's imperial power, the family has really reached a precarious situation!
"Haha! This is Marquis Yong'an's family matter, I don't dare to ask any more questions! And to be honest with my nephew, I only found out about this news a few days ago!"
Wang Yu is an old man and probably knows the purpose of the Lu and Li families in sending their two eldest sons here this time. He chuckled and said vaguely.
Lu Chengqing was obviously not satisfied with this answer, but Wang Yu was so perfect at Tai Chi that he couldn't find any flaws. After a moment of pause, he could only laugh and said: "I see, that's it!"
Li Jingxuan on the side couldn't help but retorted:
"Uncle Shi is really good at joking. It's not easy for outsiders like me and others to interfere with Marquis Yong'an's family affairs. But as far as I know, Renbiao and Miss Li have known each other for a long time. How could Uncle Shi not know the details?"
The aristocratic family knew about the affairs of the aristocratic family. Wang Renbiao, as the eldest son of the Wang family, actually married the daughter of a merchant. This was unusual, but what was even more bizarre was that Wang Yu and Princess Tongan actually agreed to the marriage (Wang Yu and Princess Tongan They are all in Qizhou, and the wedding can still be held as usual. In the eyes of outsiders, doesn't this mean that they both agreed?) There is only one explanation for this, and that is that Wang Yu and Princess Tong'an knew about it a long time ago. Li Jingchu is Li Zexuan’s adopted sister!
Wang Yu stroked his beard and said: "My nephew has wronged me by saying this. I really only found out about this a few days ago. I have never cared much about the affairs between the juniors. Besides, Biao'er and Li Jingchu are If we truly love each other, what impact does it have if Li Jingchu is the adopted sister of Marquis Yongan?"
This old guy didn't mention at all how he and Princess Tong'an made things difficult for Li Jingchu and Wang Renbiao, the miserable couple. At this moment, he is simply a loving father who only has his son in his heart!
When Li Jingxuan and Lu Chengqing heard this, they both twitched their mouths. Even a ghost would not believe what Wang Yu said, so how could they believe it? The family values profits. If Li Jingchu does not have the status of "Li Zexuan's sworn sister", then this marriage will not be of any benefit to the Wang family. If Wang Yu and Princess Tong'an can agree, then the sun is really rising in the west!
"Haha! The newlyweds have finished crossing the rice bags, and now it's time to worship! Let's stop arguing about these unimportant matters, right?"
Li Yun, who was sitting first on Wang Yu's left and had been silent, now spoke.
But Wang Renbiao and Li Jingchu had already led each other into the main hall from outside!
"Sir, princess, do you want to start worshiping?"
At this time, the master of ceremonies also ran over and asked.
"let's start!"
Princess Tongan nodded and said calmly.
Before, Wang Yu instantly changed his attitude towards the marriage because of Li Zexuan's letter. In fact, Princess Tong'an had always criticized this, but now they see Li Jingxuan and Lu Chengqing reacting to Li Jingchu, Li Zexuan's adopted sister. After paying attention, Princess Tongan understood why Wang Yu changed his attitude so quickly!
It turns out that today's aristocratic family is really in decline. It turns out that Li Zexuan has really become an existence that the aristocratic family cannot shake and cannot be easily offended!
"Yes, princess!"
The master of ceremonies was a steward brought by Princess Tong'an from Suizhou. He naturally agreed with Princess Tong'an's words. He stood aside. After Wang Renbiao and Li Jingchu stood still, he shouted loudly:
"Please let the newlyweds bow to heaven and earth and give a big salute~! Bow to heaven, earth, sun, moon and stars~!"
Hearing this, Wang Renbiao and Li Jingchu turned around and faced the door, only to hear the master of ceremonies continue to shout: "Bless you for good weather, one bow; bow for a good harvest, bow again; bow for a prosperous family business, three bows~!" "
After the two people bowed to heaven and earth, the master of ceremonies continued to shout: "Please give the newlyweds two bows to the high hall~! I wish my parents good luck and longevity, bow once; I wish the high hall to be happy and healthy, bow again; I wish my parents to live longer than Nanshan, bow three times~! "
Under the guidance of the master of ceremonies, Li Jingchu and Wang Renbiao bowed three times to Wang Yu and Princess Tong'an. After paying homage to their parents, the next step was the most important moment in Wang Renbiao and Li Jingchu's lives. The master of ceremonies continued: "Please bow to the newlyweds~! I wish the husband and wife love, bow once; wish a hundred years of harmony, bow again. ; I wish you a precious son soon, bow three times~! The ceremony is complete~!"
After worshiping each other three times, the lovers who had gone through many hardships were finally truly together. The two stared at each other lovingly, and the fierce affection in their eyes almost melted the air between them!
"Please serve tea to the newlyweds~!"
After the worship, it was time for the newlyweds to serve tea to their elders. At this time, the maids on the side quickly brought the tea that had been prepared. Wang Renbiao and Li Jingchu took it on the left and right respectively, and followed their current positions. Wang Renbiao was serving tea to Wang Yu, while Li Jingchu was serving tea to Princess Tong'an!
This made Li Jingchu feel a little uneasy!
Since ancient times, there have been inevitable conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. To be precise, the identity of mother-in-law itself is full of contradictions. She hopes that there will be another woman who can give and love her son as unconditionally as she does, but she will also be "jealous" because her son has diverted some of her energy and affection.
So when her daughter-in-law doesn't pay as much as she does, she will be picky about her; when her son is nice to her, she will be secretly unhappy. Human nature dictates it.
So, when a daughter-in-law faces a person who has conflicts within herself, no matter how perfect she is, she cannot really satisfy her mother-in-law. Unless Sansheng is lucky enough to meet an open-minded mother-in-law (for example, Han Yuxi is very lucky when she meets Ye Yuzhu), as long as she thinks about it on her own, she can say anything. But human nature has its limitations after all, so conflicts are always inevitable.
Before getting married, Li Jingchu knew that Princess Tong'an had been blocking her marriage to Wang Renbiao. She didn't have much hatred in her heart at that time, but she felt sorry for Wang Renbiao who was seriously ill and bedridden because of it!
Now that she was going to be so close to Princess Tong'an, she would be lying if she said she wasn't nervous. After all, Princess Tong'an was not only the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, but also the mother of her beloved. This dual identity made her nervous at the moment. Somewhat out of breath!
"Dad, please use tea!"
On the other side, Wang Renbiao handed Wang Yu tea and said.
"Um!"
Wang Yu nodded, took the tea, and took a symbolic sip. Then his eyes inevitably fell on Li Jingchu and Princess Tong'an.
"Princess...Mom, please have some tea~!"
Li Jingchu took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. Then she handed the tea to Princess Tongan and said.
Princess Tong'an stared at Li Jingchu with her eyes motionless. She did not reach out to take it immediately. Instead, she looked at Li Jingchu for a while like this, then took the tea cup, tapped her head lightly, and said, "Yes!"
See this scene. Wang Renbiao, Li Jingchu and Wang Yu were all relieved, because as long as Princess Tongan accepted the tea, she would openly recognize Li Jingchu as their daughter-in-law!
After the couple served tea, according to etiquette, the bride should be sent to the bridal chamber next, but Princess Tong'an, who had just taken a sip of tea, said: "Come here, give me some wine~!"
Everyone was confused, but a maid seemed to have prepared it for a long time. She brought two glasses of wine, and Princess Tongan said to Li Jingchu: "Come forward!"
Li Jingchu hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes!"
After saying that, she moved and walked up to Princess Tong'an.
Princess Tong'an leaned into her ear and whispered: "You know, I have always disagreed with your marriage to your cousin, but my cousin has a deep love for you. Only if you die will he completely give up on you. ! Of these two glasses of wine, one is poisonous and the other is not. Guess which side I will put the non-poisonous glass of wine?"
After that, without waiting for Li Jingchu to react, she gently pushed Li Jingchu away, and then said with a smile as usual: "My cousin, Jingchu, this wine was transported from the ancestral land of the Wang family in Taiyuan, drink it! Just treat it as a gift." Wedding fun!"
