Gu Changqing's lineup is very large. In addition to the majestic Gu family army, there are three younger brothers - Gu Chengfeng, Gu Chenglin, Gu Yan, and one Gu Xiaoshun who is also regarded as a younger brother.
The four of them are all wearing the same royal blue brocade clothes, with a straight posture and a handsome face, a proper ancient best man group.
The reason why Xiao Heng's best man did not win this honor is mainly because Xiao Qingkong alone is not enough to form a group, that is a solo.
The last time the capital was so lively was when the young marquis of Zhaodu married the daughter of An Guogong.
The best man group is too good-looking and attracts a lot of attention, but the most eye-catching groom is the one who wants to scream the most.
As long as Gu Changqing can remember, he was either training in the military camp or fighting on the battlefield. The silver armor was the clothes he wore the most, and it was as cold as his nickname of Yama.
Today, he changed into the bridegroom's wedding dress that he wears only once in his life, and he instantly became alluring and gorgeous, like a peach and plum.
After Lord Shoufu got married, the girls' hearts were broken again. Such a stunning man was finally someone else's.
Yuan family.
In Yuan Baolin's boudoir, Mrs. Yuan burst into tears.
Her daughter was frail since childhood and had to be raised in a Taoist temple. She finally took off her Taoist robe and put on a woman's wedding dress.
Yuan Baolin wore a phoenix crown and a robe, without the coldness of a female Taoist priest, her lips were rosy, bright and moving.
Yuan Baolin comforted her mother: "Mother, don't cry, Zuo is just marrying someone, and it's not that he will never come back."
Mrs. Yuan clapped her daughter's hand, glared at her and choked up: "Of course you can't come back casually! You are married and you are a bride. You must obey the rules in your in-law's house!"
Yuan Baolin pouted. It's not a real husband and wife. The agreement between her and Gu Changqing clearly states that she can go back to her parents' house at any time, and Gu Changqing must not stop her.
As for the rules, Gu Changqing gave her convenience, she naturally wouldn't make it difficult for him, and she could still do her best on the surface.
Yuan Baolin sighed helplessly: "I know, I know, you have nagged it eight hundred times, and I can recite it."
Mrs. Yuan wiped her tears with a veil: "That's not because you grew up in a Taoist temple. I'm worried that you don't understand the rules of the common people."
Yuan Baolin said: "I understand, I understand."
It's all written in the book, and she's learning!
"Sister..." Yuan Tong also came over crying, hugged her sister and said, "I can't bear you..."
"Alright, alright." Yuan Baolin comforted her mother and sister while comforting her.
The Shiquan woman on the side was stunned for a moment. She had seen the bride and her mother hug each other and cry, but she had not seen the bride calmly comforting the family.
When the auspicious time arrived, Yuan Baolin's brother carried her out of the boudoir.
Yuan Tong trotted all the way behind and cried, "Sister...Sister..."
Gu Changqing received the bride and said goodbye to his father-in-law and mother-in-law: "Father and mother, please rest assured, I will take care of Paulin well."
Madam Yuan burst into tears.
Father Yuan's eyes were red, and he patted Gu Changqing's shoulder heavily: "Remember what you said, go ahead, Paulin will leave it to you."
As soon as Gu Changqing left, Yuan's father couldn't hold back any longer. He turned around, covered his face with a big hand, and burst into tears: "Wow... Paulin is married..."
Madam Yuan, who was crying sadly, shook her body and looked at her man as if she had seen a ghost.
- Suddenly she met someone who could cry more than herself, and she was so shocked that she couldn't cry.
The welcoming team came to the Ding'an Marquis Mansion in a lively manner.
Gu Changqing rolled over and dismounted, came to the sedan chair, and stretched out his slender knuckles.
Yuan Baolin originally planned to walk down by herself, but suddenly caught a glimpse of the outstretched hand from under her hijab.
She was stunned.
She understands the truth of acting as a whole, and it shouldn't matter if she just holds hands.
She put her weak and boneless hand gently on Gu Changqing's palm.
Gu Changqing lacked experience in dealing with women. The only woman she had been close to when she grew up was her younger sister. Her younger sister's hands had calluses and wounds from labor and fighting, but Yuan Baolin's hands were a little different.
This is a delicate hand.
He was very worried that he would accidentally break her hand.
He led the bride off the sedan chair.
Madam Xi came late with the red silk, and something went wrong. Fortunately, the groom had already taken the bride off the sedan chair, otherwise it would be embarrassing.
She smiled and handed the red silk to the hands of the newlyweds.
The two grabbed the red silk and walked into the house.
The bride needs to straddle the saddle and step on the tiles.
It went very smoothly when straddling the saddle, but when it came time to step on the tiles, Gu Xiaoshun, who was beside him, gasped and patted Gu Yan in a low voice, "That's my cement tile! Whoever took it wrong!"
"What kind of cement tile?" Gu Yan took the tile, and he took the thinnest piece just to crush it.
Gu Xiaoshun grabbed his head in desperation: "It's over, it's over, this kind of tile was taught to me by my sister, and I used it to repair the roof for my wife... I can't even step on it!"
In the custom of Zhao Kingdom, if the bride cannot step on the tiles, it will be regarded as an ominous and unchaste omen.
Yuan Baolin didn't know anything about it, she raised one foot and stepped on it.
Gu Changqing's eyes swept across the tile, and at a glance he noticed something was wrong. Almost as soon as Yuan Baolin's foot fell, he put his fingers together and exerted an internal force, shattering the cement tile under her feet.
Yuan Baolin looked at the tile that had been trampled into powder by herself, and said dumbfounded: "Huh? Am I so good?"
Gu Xiaoshun gave a thumbs up: "Sister-in-law... You have good legs..."
Gu Changqing calmly led Yuan Baolin into the lobby.
Lord Gu and Mrs. Yao were sitting on the high chairs of the Grand Master, Mr. Gu was smiling so hard that he could not see his eyes, and Mrs. Yao was also very happy.
"Worship heaven and earth."
"Two thanks to the high hall!"
"Happy husband and wife—"
Yuan Baolin and Gu Changqing didn't have a good distance, and they were very sincere, and their heads collided.
"Ouch!" Yuan Baolin cried out in pain.
Gu Changqing's expression froze, and she whispered, "I'm sorry."
The onlookers laughed.
The bride was sent to the bridal chamber first. She sat on the wedding bed that Gu Xiaobao rolled over. Gu Changqing glanced at her and said to her, "I'm going outside to entertain guests. If you're hungry, eat something first."
Yuan Baolin said: "Then you help me take off the hijab first."
The two were fake marriages, and the hijab would be the same for anyone, but since Yuan Baolin made this request, Gu Changqing still picked up Yu Ruyi on the table and picked up her hijab.
What caught my eye was an unfamiliar yet familiar face.
Familiar because he knew him after all, unfamiliar because she had never seen her like this.
Her daughter's petite, soft and radiant beauty was perfectly complemented by her outfit.
It was also the first time that Yuan Baolin saw Gu Changqing so happy: "You look good in a wedding dress."
The one who topped Zhaodu was not only the little Marquis, but also this young master of the Gu family.
"You too." Gu Changqing responded politely.
Yuan Baolin smiled, thinking of something, looked at him and asked, "Tonight..."
"I'll sleep on the floor tonight." Gu Changqing finished speaking, seeing her look of astonishment, thinking that she thought it was inappropriate, and explained, "If I wasn't there on the night of the bridal chamber, someone would say that I dislike you."
Yuan Baolin smiled embarrassingly: "I didn't mean that, I was asking if I could sleep first without waiting for you?"
Gu Changqing: "..."
"Yes," he said.
Yuan Baolin asked again: "Then, will someone come to the bridal chamber? Should I prepare?"
Gu Changqing said calmly, "No."
At present, no one in the whole capital dared to make trouble for his bridal chamber.
Xiao Heng and Shangguan Qing dared, but the former was not so wicked, and the latter was not in Zhao.
Yuan Baolin was relieved: "Go ahead, don't worry about me!"
"Okay." Gu Changqing turned and walked out of the room.
He instructed the dark guard to throw all those who came to the bridal chamber out.
After a while, Gu Xiaobao came over.
Yuan Baolin looked at Xiao Xiaodouding who suddenly appeared and asked curiously, "Who are you?"
"Xiaobao." Gu Xiaobao reported to his family, "are you my sister-in-law?"
Yuan Baolin remembered that Gu Changqing had a little brother, who seemed to be called Xiaobao.
She smiled and said, "Yes, I'm your sister-in-law."
"Oh, then this is for you." Gu Xiaobao handed her the miniature snack box in his hand.
The snack box looks the same as the large food box. It has several layers of drawers and a handle, like a house toy for children.
This family is really caring and takes care of their children to the extreme.
Yuan Baolin took it, and after opening it, there was a fragrant smell, and she took it out layer by layer, only to find that it was all eaten.
There are meat, vegetables and steamed buns, all of which are small and exquisite.
"Your elder brother asked you to send it?" Yuan Baolin asked.
"Well." Gu Xiaobao nodded.
Gu Xiaobao expressed dissatisfaction with not being able to pick up his relatives. In order to make him feel involved, Gu Changqing entrusted him with this important task.
But Gu Changqing never expected that he would be so particular about letting the kitchen make his own small dishes and delivering them in his own special snack box.
—As expected of a child who grew up with Qingkong.
Yuan Baolin thought Gu Xiaobao was too funny, so she couldn't help pinching his face.
Gu Xiaobao: Okay, you are the elder sister-in-law. The elder brother asked me to be nice to you, so I let you pinch.
The uncle and sister-in-law shared the food brought by Gu Xiaobao.
At night, Gu Changqing, who had been poured several rounds of wine by the guests, returned to the new room.
Gu Xiaobao had already left, and Yuan Baolin's maids stayed outside.
He stepped into the room, Yuan Baolin really fell asleep, and the thin red curtain fell down, reflecting the light of the dragon and phoenix incense candles, which was full of joy.
Her graceful figure is looming in the curtain, with the beauty that is unique to a girl, and inadvertently exudes a hint of spring.
Gu Changqing looked away, went to the closet, took a mattress and spread it on the ground, took out another quilt, and then he closed his clothes and lay down.
"Gu Changqing."
Inside the tent, Yuan Baolin suddenly spoke.
Gu Changqing looked at the tent subconsciously, and soon withdrew his gaze in a gentlemanly manner: "You haven't slept yet?"
Yuan Baolin said: "I recognize the bed a little bit and can't sleep."
Gu Changqing paused: "Then you..."
"Mother Zhang!"
Suddenly, a maid's voice came from outside the door.
"I'm here to give the prince sober soup!"
Mammy Zhang is Madam Gu's confidant. If he finds out that Gu Changqing is sleeping on the floor, things will be bad.
Yuan Baolin sat up, opened the curtain, and said to Gu Changqing, "Come up quickly!"
If someone else came, Gu Changqing could block it back, but it was someone sent by his grandmother. If he blocked Mammy Zhang, he would have to come over because of her grandmother's temper.
Gu Changqing frowned, neatly rolled up the bed cover and stuffed it into the cabinet.
Yuan Baolin jumped out of bed numbly and raised her hand to untie his belt.
Gu Changqing's eyes trembled: "What are you doing?"
Yuan Baolin said: "Today is the night of the bridal chamber. Isn't it strange that you are dressed so neatly?"
"I'll do it myself." Gu Changqing said.
Yuan Baolin gestured to the window with her eyes, and the shadows of the two were reflected on it.
"Prince." Mammy Zhang called from outside the door with a smile.
Gu Changqing let go and let Yuan Baolin take off his belt.
The two were too close to each other, and he could clearly feel her breath and the faint feminine fragrance on her body.
Yuan Baolin spread out his clothes and took off his hair crown, and then said with satisfaction: "Okay, it looks a little messy."
Gu Changqing straightened her expression and walked over to open the door for Mammy Zhang: "Mammy, it's so late, why are you here?"
Mammy Zhang was overjoyed when she saw his disheveled appearance. The eldest son didn't even touch a maid in the house. What did the old lady say to worry that the eldest son was not good at that
Look at this monkey's anxious appearance, the old lady is thinking too much!
She glanced at the room again, Yuan Baolin was already lying back in the tent, only showing a crystal white jade foot.
Oh, is Shizi so fierce
Just go back to the room and put people-
Mammy Zhang's heart blossomed with joy: "The hangover soup, drink it while it's hot!"
Gu Changqing took it over, drank it in one breath, and said to Mammy Zhang: "Then I'll go to bed first, please tell Mammy to tell her grandmother to rest earlier, and I'll go to greet her tomorrow morning."
"Good, good, good!"
Mammy Zhang held the empty bowl and walked away with a smile.
What is the old lady worrying about? I was worried that the prince would not be able to, so she had to send her a bowl of that kind of soup. In her opinion, Mrs. Shizi might not be able to get up tomorrow morning!
Gu Changqing took a long breath, took a step back, closed the door, and inserted the latch.
Yuan Baolin quickly retracted her foot.
That foot was for Mammy Zhang, not for Gu Changqing.
However, Gu Changqing is a martial artist. He turns around quickly and has good eyesight, so he saw it all at once.
The nails are smooth, crystal-like and jade-like, small and delicate, making people want to hold them in the palm of their hands to play.
It's not something he can see.
He hurriedly looked at it, calmed down, walked to the cabinet, opened the cabinet door and took out the bedding again.
He got dressed again and lay down.
But for some reason, he suddenly felt a little hot in his heart.
