The red ceremonial banner and the bright wedding lanterns, like a bright red cloud slowly drifting from the end of the long street, Princess Taichang was excited when she saw Yanchi and her granddaughter-in-law again.
"It's coming, it's finally here!"
While talking, Princess Taichang held Yan Chi with one hand, and the eldest son Yue Jia with the other.
"Jia'er, let's go, grandma will go with you to meet..."
The original etiquette was for the princess to sit high above the auditorium, but everyone was waiting for the bride to wait, and it was really not easy for the bride to marry far away. If she could go out of the house to welcome her in person, it would show the enthusiasm and sincerity of the Anyang Marquis.
So Princess Taichang led Yue Jia and Yan Chi in front, Anyang Hou Yueqiong and Jiang Shi in the back, together with the little princess Yue Ning and the second young master of Anyang Houfu Yue Qing, went to the gate of the mansion together, saw the master walking out the door, The guests hurriedly followed, and soon, hundreds of guests were standing in front of the elegant and dignified Anyang Marquis Mansion with red silk, which was unprecedentedly grand.
"It's coming! It's finally here!"
"Look, this looks like a wedding procession. As expected of a well-known family in the capital, this kind of grandeur is rare in Jinzhou for a hundred years. Ah, I saw a wedding sedan chair..."
The guard of honor came slowly, and apart from the leader in the distance, only the shadow of the wedding sedan chair could be seen.
The wedding sedan chair was carried eight times, and the red lacquered tent was followed by a considerable amount of dowry from the Duke of Song's mansion. In the night, it looked like a long dragon with no tail in sight, bringing the nobles of the capital and the high dignified appearance.
"I heard that there are more than 20 carriages for the dowry this time, plus the servants for the dowry. Duke Song's mansion is not small."
"After all, I'm married to the Marquis of Anyang. The Marquis has made great military achievements, and there is also Princess Taichang..."
The guests kept talking, Qin Wan was squeezed to the far side, just stood still, Fu Ling squeezed out from the crowd, "Finally found Miss, you just disappeared when you came out of the auditorium..."
Qin Wan pulled her to stand still, "There are too many people, don't worry."
Fu Ling nodded, and suddenly said in a low voice, "Miss, the old lady is over there."
As Fu Ling spoke, she raised her hand and pointed, Qin Wan raised her eyebrows and looked over, as expected, after seven or eight people, Mrs. Jiang was standing with Mrs. Lin, and they had already discovered Qin Wan. At this moment, the face was complicated. look at her.
Qin Wan knew in his heart that he must have known about her saving the eldest princess.
Among them, Jiang Shi's gaze was particularly gloomy. If it was Qin Wan in the past, not only would he not dare to look at him, but even if Jiang Shi looked at him, he would be scared to death. But now, Qin Wan calmly and Jiang Shi They looked at each other, and then, neither humble nor overbearing looked away.
That calm look made Jiang narrow his eyes severely.
"Miss, what did the Taichang Princess say to you? Why did you stay with me for a whole day? The servant girl looked at the old lady with displeasure. Miss, I really didn't expect you to save the Taichang Princess."
Qin Wan was detained for a day, and although Fu Ling followed, she stayed outside and had no chance to speak to her.
Qin Wan gently bent her lips, "Princess Taichang said that my medical skills are very good, as for the old lady... she will not dislike it."
Fu Ling blinked her eyes, she was a little confused for a while, Jiang's eyes were obviously terrifying!
"Here we come, Jiaer, your bride is here—"
The wedding procession was getting closer and closer, and in an instant, firecrackers and fireworks rang out in front of the Hou Mansion, creating a lively and festive atmosphere. Almost at the same time, a fast horse came galloping, and immediately a handsome man in an indigo costume appeared.
When the horse arrived in front of the door, the man reined in his horse neatly and turned down, his robes lifted and he knelt down to salute.
"I pay my respects to Princess Taichang, Mrs. Hou Ye, my nephew Wei Yanzhi, I am here to give you a wedding at the order of the Duke!"
The Marquis of Anyang knew the identity of the person who was going to be married, he was Song Guogong's nephew. , I have worked hard all the way..."
Wei Yanzhi got up and said "Don't dare", when he turned his head, the wedding sedan chair was close in front of him.
As soon as the wedding sedan chair arrives, the wedding ceremony will begin, with the sound of firecrackers and fireworks, and the sound of joy. In the bustling and colorful scene, the eight-carrying wedding sedan chairs with golden pliers and embroidered with red phoenixes, unicorns and unicorns giving birth to their children are slowing down. Slowly stopped in front of the mansion gate.
Seeing the Anyang Marquis Mansion, the servants and servants who were sending off the wedding all the way were greatly relieved.
Everyone was infected by the liveliness of the wedding ceremony, and their faces were full of joy.
The official of the Hou Mansion stepped forward immediately, "The bride has arrived, and the auspicious time has arrived, please the son of the world to decide the universe—"
There are many wedding customs in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the setting of the heaven and earth in the sedan chair is one of them.
As soon as the official of ceremonies finished speaking, an attendant immediately brought up a bow and arrow tied with red silk. The Yue family was all generals, each with extraordinary military strength.
The ceremony official continued to sing and said, "One shot at the sky, a good match from heaven, the newlywed is happy at the door, two shots at the ground, the ground is paired with a pair, the newcomer will be happy for a hundred years, three arrows are shot at the sedan chair door, and the sweet wife's heart is fixed."
With a sound of "nail", the last arrow was firmly nailed to the sedan door.
There were applause and cheers all over the venue, accompanied by the uninterrupted fireworks and firecrackers, pushing the excitement to the peak.
Rao Qin Wan and other people who don't like the excitement are also affected by the atmosphere at this moment, their eyes are bright, and they look at the sedan door full of expectation.
"The universe has been fixed, forever, forever, please kick the sedan chair door—"
As the ceremonial officer sang, Yue Jia's expression lifted.
Princess Taichang smiled all over her face, "Go, go, but be gentle, don't scare granddaughter-in-law."
Yue Jia responded with a smile, and walked towards the sedan chair door. This was the second hurdle of picking up the sedan chair. After passing this hurdle, the bride would get out of the sedan chair to salute.
Under everyone's gaze, Yue Jia walked up to the sedan chair door. He flicked his sleeves, clasped his fists solemnly, and bowed politely to the sedan chair door, "Madam please get off the sedan chair—"
As he said that, he raised his foot and kicked lightly at the sedan door.
Kicking the sedan door means that men and women respect each other as equals after they get married. After the groom kicks the sedan door, he can only open the sedan curtain after the bride kicks back.
However, after Yue Jia finished kicking, there was no reaction in the sedan chair.
Yue Jia waited for a moment, then frowned and looked at the ceremony official.
The ceremonial officer didn't expect this to happen, so he coughed lightly and said, "I ask Shi Ziye to kick the sedan chair door again. In the future, the king will not be afraid of guilt, the wife will not show weakness, and the two will love each other until they grow old—"
Yue Jia followed the order and kicked the sedan chair door again, he was a military general, he kicked very gently and politely just now, this second time, it was a little heavier, the journey is far away, the bride fell asleep from exhaustion, could it be
After the second kick, there was still no movement in the sedan chair.
Yue Jia frowned, as a warrior, he subconsciously felt something was wrong.
Even if the bride is asleep, or unwilling to follow the etiquette, but there is only a car curtain, he should at least be able to hear the breath in the car, but at this moment, the voices of the people have quieted down, and the firecrackers and fireworks have stopped. There was a dead silence behind the car curtain, there was not a sound at all, where is the bride
Not only Yue Jia, but also the people around were also stunned when they saw that they didn't respond when they kicked the sedan door twice.
Not to mention marrying to the Anyang Marquis's Mansion, even ordinary people's marriage, this bride is not uncooperative, the wedding cares about a smooth and successful wedding, is it auspicious, is this lady from the Duke of Song's Mansion so unruly? !
Everyone's expression was fixed, and they all fixed their eyes on the sedan chair door.
The ceremonial officer was a little bit troubled, and he was even more resentful, this lady from the Duke of Song's mansion was too disrespectful to the Marquis of Anyang's mansion!
Thinking about it this way, the ceremony official simply said, "The auspicious time has come, please raise the curtain of the sedan chair—"
Yue Jia felt strange at first, after hearing this, he lifted the car curtain with almost no hesitation.
When the car curtain was lifted, Yue Jia's pupils trembled violently!
At the same time, the eyes of the expectant guests changed drastically after seeing the situation inside the sedan chair, and then, the horrifying and ear-piercing exclamations wiped out the festive excitement.
Yue Jia's bride is still in the sedan chair, she is sitting in a dignified and dignified manner wearing a bright red wedding gown with rich peonies and a hundred sons.
But outside the sedan chair door, Yue Jia, who had killed countless enemies on the battlefield, felt his hair stand on end.
He stared at the bride's bare and bloody broken neck, and the blood all over his body froze—
Her bride has a graceful figure and a fiery wedding dress, but she is alone and has no head.
