Chapter 157: Marriage auspicious day
One month is a bit painful, but it is not long after all.
On the sixth day of the fifth month, the second day after the Dragon Boat Festival, it is a good day for Xie Yi and Zheng Liwan to have a happy day.
The first five rituals have been completed, and the six rituals have reached the last step to welcome them.
According to ancient wedding customs, weddings were held at dusk, so Xie Yi set out at noon and went to Zheng's house to marry the bride.
The distance between Fenglefang and Anyefang is not very far, and it is convenient to get around. Xie Yi rode a tall horse to greet the bride.
Idle people in Chang'an City could not be riding casually, but today Li Shimin's special order allowed Xie Yi to have this opportunity.
Zheng Liwan is a famous beauty in Chang'an. Although she is an "old girl", she has a reputation; Xie Yi is also a young talent who is in the limelight, and this marriage has attracted a lot of attention.
Not far away, it can be regarded as the focus of attention. Xie Yi rode a horse in front and took Zheng Liwan back to Huaiyang County Bo Mansion with a gorgeous and colorful carriage.
Xie Yi originally meant that if he wanted to use a sedan chair, he would only ask in detail that this thing was not popular these days. A sedan chair is basically exclusive to the royal family, and no matter whether the scholars and common people welcome their relatives, they use a carriage.
This exquisitely decorated carriage walked on the streets of Chang'an and immediately attracted the attention of countless people. Ordinary people praised and lamented that talented men and women are beautiful, talented men and beautiful women have been talked about since ancient times.
There are also many people who are envious and even jealous. There are many people who are moved by Zheng Liwan's stunning appearance, but unfortunately they all have no courage.
It would be fine if no one dared to marry Zheng Liwan in the past, but now Xie Yi has embraced the beauty, which makes many people feel envious and jealous.
Why aren’t you braver? If you are bolder, you might be the one who loves you tonight.
These young men did not consider their strengths and character at all, and even forgot about their past fears; they all thought it self-righteously or fantasized.
It seems that as long as you are bolder, the beauty will favor you, the emperor will agree, and you will be able to achieve beautiful things. I completely forgot about the risks that Xie Yi took when he tried his best.
So at this moment, they could only look at it and sigh jealously.
...
After the wedding, I returned to Bo Mansion in Huaiyang County and held the wedding under the auspices of Wei Zheng.
Cheng Zhijie, Yuchi Gong, Princess Changle and other few guests came to watch the ceremony, and Xie Yi and Zheng Liwan got married.
Zheng Liwan's request for not being a legitimate wife is somewhat surprising and regretful, but it is also a good thing to finally marry a good husband.
The "flat wife" of Yu Ci is not a good identity. It seems that the Xie family will not have a legitimate wife for the time being. With Xie Yi's character, he will definitely not treat Zheng Liwan badly. Princess Changle, who is her best friend, is sincerely happy.
Princess Changle knew that her father-in-law Changsun Wuji had the part to help in this matter, which was a reward for her entry into the palace to dissuade the governor from hereditary inheritance. But to put it carefully, this was originally Xie Yi's idea.
This is what Buddhism calls cause and effect. Xie Yi’s random idea in the past has led to his marriage to some extent.
Fortunately, my father was reasonable and no longer calmed down for the so-called "face". Finally, he agreed. According to the implication of his father-in-law Changsun Wuji, his father originally intended to give Zheng Liwan the identity of a wife.
However, he was incompetent to the court and had no resentment and no resentment. It was difficult to issue decrees rashly to avoid being rude to the court's decree. However, Princess Changle knew that with such a "love" attitude, Zheng Liwan's wife would have the imperial decree sooner or later.
It is not difficult for a wife to be noble because of her husband and Xie Yi's ability and ability. It is not difficult to make some contributions. It is reasonable to thank her wife at that time.
After the wedding, there was a sumptuous wedding banquet, which was organized by Du Xijun.
After receiving Xie Yi's personal guidance, Du Xijun and the chef at home greatly improved their cooking methods. A series of exquisite stir-fry and steamed dishes were served on the table, giving the guests a happy treat.
Cheng Zhijie even exclaimed: "It's really delicious. I didn't expect that the Xie family had delicious food in addition to fine wine... Today is really worth the trip!"
Yuchi Gong wiped his mouth and smiled and said, "Old Cheng, don't make a mistake. Today we are not coming to you for your desire, but to congratulate Xiaoyao and Mrs. Zheng on the marriage."
Seeing this, Cheng Zhijie smiled and said, "That's natural, I wish them a happy couple to live together and be harmonious and beautiful. The most important thing is to have a noble son early..."
"Yes, there was a fat baby earlier, and we will come to have a full moon wine again..." Although the words of the two old dukes were a little embarrassed, they were also the most sincere blessing.
In this way, the wedding banquet is naturally full of fun. Perhaps it is because it is attracted by food, or perhaps it is because it is unwilling to destroy the beautiful scene. The wine is ahead, and Cheng Zhijie did not drink too much for the first time.
Seeing the sun set and the lights were on, I said goodbye with many guests and left.
It was getting late, and it was time to rest. It was even more important for newlywed young couples. It was a great sin to delay their wedding wedding.
...
The guests left, and the newlywed young couple was sent to the west room of the main house of the inner courtyard.
The east house is Du Xijun's residence. Mrs. Cai Guo nominally lives in the east as the sister-in-law of the second wife of the Xie family, and her identity is a bit precious.
In fact, Du Xijun entered the door early, and it was reasonable to be slightly ahead. Zheng Liwan knew it clearly, so she did not feel dissatisfied at all and accepted it happily.
The west room has been cleaned up, with lights and decorations, which is very festive, especially the pair of high-lit red candles.
There is no hot kang here yet, and Xie Yi doesn't like a low bed, so he specially ordered a craftsman to make a bed and a wedding bed that praises the new one.
The furnishings everywhere are extremely sophisticated and well-arranged, which is obviously Du Xijun has taken care of. She has put a lot of effort into the details of Xie Yi and Zheng Liwan's marriage.
On the wedding day, night has arrived. Everyone knows what will be next.
Xie Yi is looking forward to it, while Zheng Liwan is a little shy and a little bit "embarrassing". However, when it comes to embarrassing, the more nervous person seems to be the maid Abi.
I send my wife to my future wife into the room and the groom comes in, so she should...
As the personal maid of his wife, he came here with a dowry. According to later generations, he was a maid who should stay with a good life to serve Alang and his wife, and it seemed that he should stay close to him when he was there.
However……
In the first time, Abi, a yellow-flower maid, had never seen anything. When he thought of those hearsays, he couldn't help but blush and feel a little embarrassed, not knowing how to deal with it.
"A Bi, I've been tired for a day, go and rest!" Xie Yi was very reasonable when he saw this.
"Okay, thank you, Ah Lang." Ah Biru received a general amnesty, but as soon as she left, she couldn't help but feel moved. She left like this. Is it really good that she was dereliction of duty?
But……
Just as she was about to turn around and go back to serve, Xie Yi had already covered the door of the new house and turned her out... (To be continued.)
