Chapter 172: Cumbersome etiquette

Views:

On the way back to welcome the relatives, the fires along the way were lit one after another, like the day, the dark night was instantly illuminated by the fire. The welcoming team will go out after passing a fire in the rear, avoiding the water. The team welcoming the relatives along the way did not have the hustle and bustle of the gongs and drums as imagined, but rather calm.

The people who watched the excitement talked a lot, until the sedan chair was about to arrive at the palace, the discussion was much less. At the same time, the main gate of the palace had already been opened, and there were lights and colorful waiting for a long time, and the music rang to welcome the arrival of the sedan chair.

Li Kuan got out of the carriage, held up his chest, and looked at the sedan chair with a smile on his face. There was his beloved woman there, naturally in a good mood, with happiness on his face. Immediately after the sedan chair stopped, a five or six-year-old girl dressed up came to the front of the sedan chair, and her delicate hand pulled Wu Jue's sleeve three times from the curtain.

Wu Jue got out of the sedan chair, and the girl was Li Dale's youngest daughter named Li Sixiang. It was not the first time Wu Hui and her met. The two were very familiar with each other. It can be said that Wu Hui completely treated Li Sixiang as a younger sister.

When Li Dal was bought by Li Kuan, she was only one year old. After that, Ai Nuer has been raising it on her behalf. It can be said that after her birth, except for the year before that, the rest of the time was in the palace. After spending time, I am very familiar with Wu Hui.

In addition, her name was also taken by Li Kuan himself, because her mother died of a dystocia. Li Dalle was still a slave at the time and was not eligible to have a name. Later, due to chance, he was bought by Li Kuan, and now Li Sixiang was born.

Li Kuan also spent a lot of time in her education. In addition to reading and writing, she also had to teach her etiquette. It can also be said that everything Li Sixiang gave was given by Li Kuan. When the news of Li Kuan's marriage spread throughout the palace, Li Sixiang volunteered to take on the role of the sedan chair girl "Sedan chair girl" and fulfilled the task perfectly.

Li Sixiang supported Wu Jue, and placed a vermilion lacquered wooden saddle in front of them. Neither of them moved, quietly waiting for Li Kuan to appear. At this time, Li Kuan was being invited back by Li Dale's eldest son, Li Qixiang. According to etiquette, the two pretended to avoid it. In fact, Li Kuan would actually do it, but just acting. When Li Qixiang was about to look for it, Li Kuan came to the door by himself. The fastest full text of 噺⒏⑴祌 んττρs:/м.χ八㈠zщ.còм/

After a while, Li Kuan and Wu Hui stood together holding hands. Wu Hui's face was blocked by the red scarf, only a pair of charming eyes were exposed, which made Li Kuan feel itchy. Li Qixiang and Li Sixiang, a man and a woman, stood behind Li Kuan and Wu Hui, one on the left and the other on the right.

"Across the saddle" is their first hurdle, which means "a lifetime is safe." When the two of them crossed the saddles, the person standing in front was Wei Zheng, the praising person, who was appointed by the emperor to be the praising person for Li Kuan's wedding.

As for the main incense holder, the sixth brother of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuanjing, the king of Jing, because Li Kuan had inherited the title of Li Zhiyun as the king of Chu, and Jingzhou is in the land of Chu, so it can be said that the title of the king of Chu is much greater than that of King Jing. When Li Kuan served as the governor of Jingzhou, Li Yuanjing was the governor of Jingzhou, replacing the samurai Xun who died of illness.

Because Li Kuan went to the fief, Li Shimin transferred him to Juanzhou as the governor, which was more attractive than the governor. The main incense holder was originally held by the elders. Taking into account the relationship between the two, Li Shimin naturally asked Li Yuanjing to return to Beijing to attend Li Kuan's wedding and attend as the main incense holder.

Wei Zheng nodded with a smile, and Li Yuanjing did the same. Immediately afterwards, Li Kuan and Wu Hui entered through the main gate together, which represented the intention of the Ming media to get married. There was a brazier behind the gate, and they had to cross it hand in hand, implying that bad luck would be eliminated and good luck would come.

After stepping over the brazier, we stepped over the rice bag, which means abundant food and clothing. As for Li Sixiang and Li Qixiang, the two siblings followed Li Kuan and Wu Shuo and scattered all the grains, which are equivalent to flowers for later generations, but the difference is that they are now behind instead of in front of them.

This time, the wedding hall of the two people was placed in the main hall of the palace, and above the high hall were the current emperor Li Shimin and empress Changsun. Originally, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun didn't plan to come, but in the end they couldn't rest assured and put down everything in their hands and came.

Wei Zheng shouted: "See you at the temple!"

As the master of incense, Li Yuanjing knelt on the ground with the groom Li Kuan and the bride Wu Jue. As the music played, Wei Zheng went on to say: "Incense!" Li Yuanjing quickly took a pair of incense, lit them and handed them to Li Kuan and Li Kuan. Wu Hui and the other two knelt directly on the ground and put incense on the ground.

"Kow!" Li Kuan and Wu Hui knelt and bowed, and Wei Zheng continued: "Second Shangxiang!"

Three times of incense, three first salutes, this is not over yet. Wei Zheng went on to say: "Rise, flat, reset! Kneel, everything is crisp!"

Li Kuan and Wu Suo had to stand up, obey Wei Zheng's command, do as he said, stand up, bow and bow, and then kneel to salute. Then Wei Zheng asked the two of them to get up again. This time, instead of kneeling on the ground, they just bowed and bowed.

In the end, Wei Zheng asked them to kneel and worship again. After the three-kneel and nine-kowtow ceremony, the six-century ceremony is the end, and this is the big ceremony for marriage in the chapel. Of course, the objects of their husband and wife kneeling were naturally Li Shimin and Empress Changsun.

The first time to worship the incense is to worship the sky; the second time to worship the earth, and the last time it is Li Shimin and Empress Changsun. As for the six-rise worship service after the three-kneel and nine-knee ceremony, it is the ceremony of worship of the couple of Li Kuan and Wu Hui. This is much more complicated than the well-known worship of the world, the second worship of the high hall, and the worship of the husband and wife.

Because there were many people in feudal rituals, it is no wonder that marriage is a major event in life, and rituals cannot be abandoned, so they are more important and cumbersome. Today's big wedding, Li Kuan did not compete with Li Shimin, and did not hesitate when he bowed for the third time. The wedding ceremony of the two men came to an end.

Wei Zheng shouted: "After the ceremony, send it to the bridal chamber!"

Li Kuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. The ceremony was too complicated and made him a little impatient. Hearing what Wei Zheng said at first glance, he suddenly became energetic and wanted to be sent to the bridal chamber immediately. However, the etiquette of marrying in the worship hall is over, and there will be etiquette to be sent to the bridal chamber.

In front of them were two 13-year-old girls who were holding dragon and phoenix candles in their hands to lead the way, and the bridegroom officer had to lead the bride into the wedding room with colored ribbons. In addition, the two people's feet must not fall to the ground, and they must walk on sacks, usually five sacks, but also ten sacks, which means "passing on from generation to generation."

When the two walked to Qinglu’s wedding room, they were not surprised at all, but then there was another etiquette, which made both of them a little tired. In short, the etiquette for being a relative is too much and complicated. And there can be no mistakes, this is definitely a test. (End of this chapter)
