Double Ninth Festival, September 9th.

Red lanterns were hung in every street in Changdan City and colorful buildings were tied up.

According to the customs of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Northern Mongolian bride delegation needed to take Lu Nianwei to wait outside the city gate, and then the Lunyi wedding team from the Great Zhou Dynasty welcomed him in, and let Lu Nianwei sit in a phoenix carriage led by five horses.

Next, the Luanyi wedding party needs to circle the whole city and wait until noon before entering the Daqing Hall from the main entrance of the palace.

Zhao Yan waited in the Daqing Hall, and then the Ministry of Rites recited the marriage contract and informed the officials below.

After these rituals were completed, Lu Nianwei needed to go to the Ciyuan Hall where Empress Dowager Zhang lived alone to greet her. The etiquette in the harem was quite complicated. After Lu Nianwei's process, it was almost dusk.

Zhao Yan also had many tasks. He first had to go to the imperial temple to worship, then met with envoys from various countries and representatives of various states, accepted the gift lists they offered, and returned the gifts one by one.

If the Ministry of Rites had not arranged many things well, Zhao Yan would not have wanted to get married.

The fact of the royal marriage is too cumbersome.

Soon, the moon rises to the willows.

Lu Nianwei has been sent to the bridal chamber of the Ganqing Palace.

Zhao Yan was going to hold a dinner to entertain the ministers.

The dinner was also complicated, and a group of people greeted Zhao Yan, and Zhao Yan had to smile.

After all, today, Zhao Yan talked about the one-word catchphrase: Get out, it’s a bit inappropriate.

As for his specialty "defeating the dragon robe", he can only be performed in the bridal chamber tonight.

If you don’t drink alcohol normally, a group of ministers are all like this, and they are very polite.

But tonight, because I was too happy, a few ministers drank too much and even began to recite some poems from the romantic places.

Zhao Yan rarely saw everyone so happy, so he drank a lot of wine.

As the hour of Hai approached, Zhao Yancai, with the help of Xizi, returned to the bridal chamber of the Ganqing Palace.

After Xizi helped Zhao Yan in, he came out, but did not go far, because according to the regulations of the Great Zhou court, the emperor should not indulge in lust, and he should remind him at the appropriate time.

At this time, Empress Dowager Zhang came over and saw Xizi and said, "Xizi, you go back!"

Xizi was stunned and said, "Empress Dowager, according to the royal family's ancestral teachings, I shouldn't..."

Empress Dowager Zhang glared and said, "Get out quickly, it delays my grandson. The Ai family cuts your head!"

Xizi was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat and immediately stepped back.

Queen Mother Zhang lay at the door and listened for a while, and found that there was no movement, so she immediately left with a smile on her face.

Zhao Yan stumbled to the bridal chamber and saw Lu Nianwei with a red veil, and couldn't help but feel poetic.

Instead of lifting the red veil, he smiled and said, "Nianwei, I have a poem to give to you!"

Lu Nianwei was immediately overjoyed. What he liked the most was how Zhao Yan looked when he was reciting his poems.

Zhao Yan thought about it, found a poem that was certain that there was no in this era, and then read: There is a beautiful woman in Beimeng, who is peerless and independent, and she will be in full swing for the city and then in full swing for the city."

Lu Nianwei was so happy under the red veil that Zhao Yan had already regarded her as the most beautiful woman in the world.

"You... I feel a little embarrassed to praise you!" Lu Nianwei's face turned red, her heartbeats faster, and she was waiting for Zhao Yan to lift her red veil.

Three breaths, five breaths, ten breaths.

There is still no movement.

"Your Majesty? Your Majesty, Zhao Yan? Zhao Yan? Are you talking?"

Lu Nianwei lifted a corner of the veil and looked forward. Zhao Yan was tilted on the recliner and was already asleep.

"Zhao Yan, you..." Lu Nianwei was a little amused and cried, so she had to take off the red veil by herself.

The next day, Zhao Yan woke up in a daze and found that the weather was already slightly bright.

And beside him, it was Lu Nianwei who was asleep.

"Oh no, I drank too much yesterday and forgot about the serious matter!"

Just then, Lu Nianwei also opened her eyes.

Zhao Yan smiled and said, "My beloved, we should do the serious business!"

...

In the afternoon, Zhao Yan and Lu Nianwei walked out of the Ganqing Palace and then gave Empress Dowager Zhang tea to greet her.

Empress Dowager Zhang took Lu Nianwei's tea and said with a smile: "Young people can sleep for a while, you have to work hard!"

Zhao Yan felt it was very meaningful when he heard this sentence, and Lu Nianwei blushed in an instant.

At dusk, the palace is hanging.

Zhao Yan summoned Wen Prime Minister Xiao Jingye, Deputy Prime Minister Liu Chaotong, Pan Wenyue and Censor Shangguan Buyue at the same time.

The four of them all naturally developed a sense of respect for Zhao Yan.

The Chuigong Hall is the place to discuss politics. This was the second day after Zhao Yan got married. He thought about the major affairs of the court. This attitude of serving the country and the people made the four of them feel inferior.

Unfortunately, this is just their imagination.

Zhao Yan has never been a person who loves work very much.

When the four of them arrived, Zhao Yan smiled slightly and said, "Four dear friends, I have come to you to discuss something not too big. I have just gotten married and am going to go on my honeymoon. Can the government affairs of this month be completely represented by the four?"

Honeymoon?

The four of them were very confused about this new word.

Zhao Yan explained: "What a honeymoon means is that I am going to leave Changdan with Nianwei, but I will have a walk in other cities and play and come back in a month. What do you think?"

"Your Majesty, I have never had the etiquette of honeymooning in the Great Zhou Dynasty? Your Majesty left the palace and was very involved. Leaving Changdan City is even more taboo!" The old scholar Pan Wenyue immediately began to dissuade him.

Zhao Yan frowned slightly and said, "This etiquette can be adapted. I am very tired recently and want to take a break!"

"Your Majesty, I think Your Majesty can rest in the palace or find a house outside the palace to relax, but if you leave Changdan City, it may be inappropriate!" Shangguan Buyue was already a little unhappy.

"I agree with what the Censor said, Your Majesty's dragon body is precious, so there must be no accidents!" Xiao Jingye also frowned and said.

Deputy Prime Minister Liu Chaotong even bowed and said, "I recognize the words of the three great masters."

Zhao Yan knew that these four people would not agree to him leave Changdan City.

He had already come up with another solution.

Zhao Yan first sighed, then slowly stood up, not talking, but creating a sad and heavy atmosphere.

When the four ministers felt that Zhao Yan had something to hide, Zhao Yan spoke.

"Four dear friends, what I said about honeymoon is just an excuse. What I really need to do is to understand the sufferings of the people and then carry out reforms."

As soon as he heard about the reform and reform, the expressions of the four beloved ministers became solemn.

Zhao Yan has said more than once in Chuigong Hall.

Zhao Yan continued: "After defeating Northern Mongolia, my Dazhou seemed to be on the right track, but in fact it was still a quagmire inside. For example, our local tax and commercial tax have many unreasonable areas. The redundant officials and literati-official classes in the Dazhou controlled the government affairs, and several gentry distributors in the states did not have the same heart and virtue as the court at all..."

Zhao Yan talked about the problems existing in more than 30 Great Zhou courts in one breath, and then continued: "These are all things I want to solve. If I sit in the Chuigong Hall all day and correct these memorials, can the problem be solved?"

The four ministers, listening to Zhao Yan's high arguments, fell into deep thought.
