Under the night, the entire palace is brightly lit.
Not only the street lights, palaces, and trees are also covered with red lanterns, I don't know how long these lanterns at the bottom of the box have been placed.
Silks of various colors are wrapped around the tree like gorgeous flowers.
At this time, people inside and outside the Zichen Palace were full of voices, laughter, and shouts resounded throughout.
Inside the hall are all the ministers from the court of the ancient clan, and outside the hall are people from the land of Izumo and Tianjing!
Ren Baqian sat beside the empress, holding a piece of red silk, and resting his chin with one hand to watch Xuanhua, Minister of Rites perform a striptease below.
The other end of the red silk is in the hands of the empress.
With the wild laughter of many burly men and enchanting women, Xuan Hua only had a loincloth left!
"I didn't realize that the Minister of Rites is not an ordinary person!" Ren Baqian admired in a low voice.
This is the first time to sit on it and look at the civil and military officials below. To be honest, it is not very comfortable. After all, at the top, every move is watched by others, and many small actions can't be done.
At the beginning, he still had the attitude of an old Buddha sitting still, but as the atmosphere in the hall became more and more enthusiastic, Ren Baqian seemed to have nails under his buttocks, and he was about to be unable to sit still.
Then she was pinched on the arm by the empress, and immediately sat up straight again!
"Look at my last dance, let you see the old man's big baby!" Xuan Hua is a few years younger than Tong Zhenye and Qin Chuan, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looks like a serious person, but at this time His face was flushed, and he couldn't help showing off his muscles while wearing a loincloth, and his hands were all on the loincloth!
"What a mess! Did anyone stop him?" Ren Baqian's expression was wonderful, you must know that you are the Minister of Rites! She usually looks silent, but today is she showing her true nature
"Okay!" Many people below applauded!
Ren Baqian found that no one was stopping him, and immediately considered whether to cover the Empress' eyes.
"Wow!" Before Ren Baqian could think about it, Xuanhua let out a weird cry, and the loincloth was thrown into the sky.
Ren Baqian couldn't laugh or cry when he saw the empress next to her with her head bowed and drinking to cover up her expression, and Tu Wan and the many household officials who were applauding and whistling there!
Apparently this isn't the first time this has happened!
Since I came here, except for fighting, I have been running here and there. I haven't held a few banquets. Every time the finale is Tong Zhenye and Qin Chuan performing Mortal Kombat!
It's the first time I've seen such a grand finale!
Wrong, not the finale, after Xuanhua jumped down, several officials jumped up again...
After Tong Zhenye and Qin Chuan experienced the whole afternoon and half night of being depressed because of His Majesty's injustice, they started gearing up for the grand finale again!
"Sure enough, it's a barbarian, and it's really worthy of the name!" Outside the Zichen Hall, part of the situation in the hall could be seen, and a man on one of the tables laughed softly, consciously keeping his voice so low that no one could hear it except his companions.
"I'm not afraid of staining my eyes!" The companion also whispered.
Although the Izumo has been destroyed now, most of the Izumo people still treat the ancient people as barbarians and despise them from the bottom of their hearts.
Especially when he saw the scene in the main hall, he couldn't help but sneer.
Although he didn't dare to let other people hear it, his companions were not worried about it.
At a table not far away, a man with a broad forehead and slightly deep eye sockets turned his head and took a look, his hands tightly grasping the chopsticks.
"Pingtang! What's the matter?" Someone immediately noticed his strange behavior.
Most of the people who came this time were members of Jinyiwei. Although there were not enough positions, it was still an exception to allow them to participate in the banquet, just like those Izumo people.
However, the people of the Jing clan are not as angry as the people of the Izumo. On the one hand, most of the masters of the Jing clan died, and the rest entered the Jinyiwei; Realized, did not deceive them, which made them quite grateful, willing to serve.
The Jing clan has been tossing in the land of Tianjing for so many years, isn't it just to get out? As for the country, it doesn't matter, Hao country has been dead for more than 70 years, and they have been ruled by the ancient clan for more than 70 years in name!
What's more, these members of Jinyiwei have points for every task they do. As long as the points are enough to redeem, the herbs or other items required in the declaration can be received within two to three months.
Points are now more valuable than gold and silver in Jinyiwei!
The man named Pingtang snorted coldly and said the few words he just heard.
The expressions of the others also changed!
"Did you hear me right?"
"My kung fu is all about my ears, and I can hear the wings of mosquitoes and flies a hundred meters away clearly!" Pingtang said.
"Oh, these Izumo people really don't know how to live and die, and dare to speak out lies in this place! Don't say anything, after all, today is a day of great joy. If there is any trouble, the adults will definitely be angry! Then it will not be bad. us!
Follow them after a while, find out their identities, and report to your lord, it will be a credit! "A mature person said immediately.
…
"Your Majesty, the time has come."
At this time, the hall is full of demons dancing wildly, and finally there is a dedicated official of the Ministry of Rites.
Hearing this, the Empress and Ren Baqian stood up.
"You can do whatever you want!" the empress said calmly, and then she went out through the side door first, and Ren Baqian naturally followed behind.
Outside the main hall, Ren Baqian called a guard: "Send in the water of life I prepared!"
"yes!"
"Tell them it's the blood of courage!"
"What water of life? What blood of courage?" the empress stopped and turned her head to ask. The name seemed very powerful!
"96% vodka!" Ren Baqian said with a straight face!
If it was given to them before, they really might not drink it!
But now, it's hard to say...
From the very beginning, I was prepared for any danger, but that old guy Tong Zhenye must not let it go! You can't just give him one person, can you? That's because everyone knew there was a problem, let alone Tong Zhenye's cunning old man!
Just send them all up, there is not a single good thing anyway! I didn't force them to drink it myself! Just tell them it's the blood of courage!
"96%? I remember you said that the Erguotou I drink is 38% and 40%, what's the difference?" the empress asked casually.
"It's just a little too vigorous!" Ren Baqian replied honestly.
"Do you have bad intentions?" The Empress looked at him brightly.
Ren Baqian understood the empress, and the empress also understood him!
It's usually fine, but some bad ideas will pop up from time to time!
"Your Majesty is thinking too much, this kind is just a little higher concentration. Erguotou drinks two catties, and this one is about one catty!" Ren Baqian had a serious face and was frank.
The empress stood there pondering for a while, and immediately understood! "What they drank just now was fruit wine, two to three catties is equivalent to a catty of Erguotou! If they drink it according to fruit wine..."
"They're not fools..." Ren Baqian said no, but he thought so in his heart! Especially now that everyone is drinking too much!
"Add your words..." The empress shook her head slightly, and gave him a blank look: "You are too bad!"
When Ren Baqian saw the empress's charming white eyes, his heart felt hot.
Fortunately, at this moment, the ceremony official urged: "Your Majesty, the time is up, there is no further delay!"
According to the royal families of other countries, the emperor has his own bedroom, as do the queens and concubines.
However, the women of the ancient tribe are fierce, and the desires of the ancient tribe are low. They have been monogamous since the founding of the country.
So not even the palace was changed.
It was still the same couch, two meters long and three meters wide!
It was covered with red cloth and hung with a hundred tents.
Not far from the couch is a table. A gourd is cut in half and hollowed out and placed on top of it. The handles of the two gourds are still connected with a red thread.
In addition, a pair of huge red candles with golden dragon and phoenix patterns stand on the table.
There are also Qingyuan Hongluan and several female officials waiting on the side.
The entire bedroom is full of ambiguous atmosphere!
The empress walked back to the bedroom, her steps slowed down, and her breathing became faint, as if she was adjusting her mood!
Ren Baqian turned to look at her: "Nervous?"
"A little bit!" The empress said honestly, which is rare!
"Your Majesty and Prince Zhao, please pay homage to the ancestors of heaven and earth!" said the ceremonial officer from behind.
The two twirled the incense and worshiped the ancestor spirits of heaven and earth again in the palace.
"Your Majesty and Prince Zhao are celebrating together!"
The Empress and Ren Baqian took half a paw melon, while Hong Luan and Qing Yuan poured wine for each.
Holding the paw melon in her hand, the empress looked at Ren Baqian, her heart turned, after the marriage ceremony, the two were officially husband and wife!
The seemingly simplest etiquette has the most solemn meaning!
Willing, naturally willing!
It's just that I still have some feelings in my heart!
The man I met on the side of the road a few years ago has now become my husband-in-law.
The world is really unpredictable!
The same thought still appeared in Ren Baqian's mind. A few years ago, he almost lost his life, and then he saw the heroic woman in Luanjia, and now she became his wife.
"Please drink up, both of you!" The ceremony official said when he saw that the two were motionless.
The empress put the paw melon to her mouth, closed her eyes slightly, raised her head and drank the wine into her stomach.
bitter!
Pao melon is bitter!
It means sharing weal and woe!
After the two drank, they opened their eyes and looked at each other. The Empress's eyes were full of tenderness. Such a gaze appeared in the eyes of the Empress, which was very touching. Ren Baqian squeezed his eyes: "Your Majesty, drink again tomorrow, and I will put sugar for you!"
The empress suddenly smiled brightly: "Nonsense!"
After the wedding ceremony, the ceremony official bowed his hands towards the two and retreated, and he was not involved in the next thing.
