There are less than three days left before Tang Xiaohao marrying Princess Baomeng. To be precise, Princess Baomeng marrying Tang Xiaohao. After all, he is a princess or a royal girl, and he belongs to the marriage. After getting married, Tang Xiaohao not only has to move to Rouyuan Palace in Qinghe Hunting Ground, but also has a valuable bride price.

Those brides can be said to be dowry. In addition to the gold, silver and ritual vessels, silk and satin, there are also a large number of servants, who naturally include Xiaoling and Tang Dun.

Tang Dun is a personal servant, while Xiao Lingdang is a personal maid. As for her true identity, everyone knows it. Princess Baomeng naturally knows it, but she won’t care, because not to mention princes and nobles, even the princes of wealthy families are equipped with such a girl. However, this directly proves that this young man is a normal man and has no health problems.

However, this approach shows that Huayuan's female status is extremely high, and it is not as good as the Tarth tribe of Rouhara. You should know that in the Tarth tribe, there are even female kings, and the status of women there is generally higher than that of men.

The only thing that made Princess Baomeng happy was that she was nominally married at this wedding, but in fact she was the one who married. You should know that in the Tuols tribe, women marry men. Of course, this is also the emperor's intention. It seems that the rules are based on the rules of the royal family, but in fact they follow the customs of Rouyuan.

Late at night, Tang Xiaohao couldn't sleep. As soon as he opened the window and planned to take a breath of wind, he heard pleasant singing from the garden, and the person singing was a small bell.

"The doves are singing in the river island. A beautiful lady is a gentleman.

The uneven watercress is flowing on both sides. The beautiful lady is looking for it.

If you can't find it, you will be happy and relaxed, tossing and turning.

The japonica is mixed with watercress, and the beautiful lady is friendly to the piano and zither.

The uneven watercress is cooked on the left and right. The beautiful lady is played with bells and drums."

(Jusuijiujiu, wuwumeimei)

Tang Xiaohao walked into the garden and followed the song to find the little bell sitting by the pond, but did not come forward to disturb him, but stood on one side and listened quietly.

This song, called "Guan Sui", was originally a poem passed down from ancient times. The Guan Sui birds sing together, depend on each other, and love each other, which aroused the association between ladies and gentlemen, and the protagonist's lovesickness and pursuit of women with the act of talented people.

After the little bell was finished singing, Tang Xiaohao stepped forward and said, "You can still sing Guan Sui."

Little bell looked at the reflection of the moon in the pool: "Yes, but I forgot who taught me, maybe it was my favorite person?"

After saying that, Xiao Lingdang looked at Tang Xiaohao who had just sat down.

Tang Xiaohao naturally pointed the purpose of this word. He thought for a moment and smiled and said, "I will definitely help you find your favorite person."

When Xiao Lingling heard this, the forced smile on her face completely disappeared. She wanted to raise her hand and slapped Tang Xiaohao in the face.

Not far away, I was lying on the rockery looking at the moon. I sighed helplessly when I looked at Tang Xiaohao.

After a long time, Tang Xiaohao finally broke his silence: "I don't even know what the Baomeng Princess is like. This marriage was arranged by the emperor, and I have no choice. If I say I don't marry, it's just a matter of resistance. If I resist the order, I'll just be beheaded. I have to implicate everyone in the Tang Mansion. Maybe it will also trigger a war between the Tuolsi tribe and the court."

The little bell didn't say anything, just looked at the pond.

Tangdou sighed again when she heard this. Even the cat knew what the big reason was to talk about at this time, you should go up and hug her directly.

What's the most scumbag in the Shendu City? That's it?

Tang Xiaohao glanced at Xiaoling: "Anyway, before you find your memory, I will definitely protect you. When you remember who you are, maybe there is a person you really like. Then I will find a way to send you to find him, and everyone will be happy."

Xiao Lingdang said quietly: "At that time, you can be your prince consort with peace of mind."

Tang Xiaohao held it in for a long time before saying, "But, we have been having a meeting. What if your lover knows? Then we are no longer a dog-like man or a woman?"

Xiao Lingling clenched her fists and looked at Tang Xiaohao: "Shut up if you can't speak."

After Xiao Lingling finished speaking, she saw Tang Xiaohao staring at him: "Why are you looking at me?"

Tang Xiaohao got up at this time, and just as he was about to approach Xiao Lingling's face, Xiao Lingling directly raised his hand and slapped him.

Although he was slapped, Tang Xiaohao still put his mouth on.

When the two mouths were touching each other, Xiao Lingling felt that her heart was about to stop beating, but she still pushed Tang Xiaohao away and slapped him again. However, Tang Xiaohao, who had five finger marks on his cheek, hugged Xiao Lingling directly.

Xiao Lingling's originally clenched fist gradually loosened, and then slowly lifted up and hugged the man in front of her.

Tangdou looked at the reflection of the two embracing each other in the pond, and leaned toward the sleeping puppy next to him with satisfaction, entangling his fluffy tail with the dog's tail.

That night, the moon remembered all the silent oaths.

——

Originally, according to the rules passed down from ancient times, men should be "twenty and the crown is ranked as husbands", but after the Dachang Dynasty opened, the age limit was relaxed due to years of war and a large population decline. Men were allowed to marry after the age of seventeen, while women could get engaged at the age of fifteen, and must get married at the age of twenty at the latest.

If a man and a woman are over twenty and are not married, the tax rate is calculated by five. That is to say, if you don’t get married again at this age, you will have to pay five times the tax.

Therefore, it is just right for Tang Xiaohao to marry Princess Baomeng at the age of 18 or 17.

However, as a royal marriage, the first five steps in the "Six Rites of Shihun" are eliminated. The reason why it was first called the "Shihun" was because the wedding ceremony was held at dusk. The six rituals are divided into Nacai, Ask for Names, Naji, Nazheng, and invite a date to welcome him.

Nacai, also known as Nacai, means that the man's family invites a matchmaker to go to the woman's house to propose marriage. If the woman's house agrees, the man prepares a gift to propose marriage. This is why there is a saying "the matchmaker's orders and the matchmaker's words."

When asking for a name, the man asked the matchmaker to ask the woman's name and birth date.

Najib refers to the man who takes back the woman’s name and birth date and horoscope and goes to divination. If the divination result is auspicious, he will notify the woman to prepare for marriage.

To be awarded is to give a betrothal gift.

The request period refers to determining the wedding date, informing the woman and asking the other party for consent.

The last part is the wedding ceremony, which is the last part of the six rituals.

Because it was the emperor's marriage, the first five steps of the Six Rites were omitted, while the last step was completely the opposite. The reason for the contrary was that Tang Xiaohao should have brought the wedding team to welcome Princess Baomeng back to the Tang Mansion. However, in order to respect the original rules of the Tuolsi tribe for marrying a woman and a man, the Tang Mansion held a banquet to entertain guests while waiting for Princess Baomeng to come and marry Tang Xiaohao.

On the main hall of the Tang Mansion, Tang Xiaohao, wearing a lord wedding uniform, knelt in front of Tang Chen. Hearing Tang Chen say the words "Go to welcome you and inherit my clan affairs", Xiao Lingdang and Tang Dun were waiting outside the hall.

Tang Xiaohao, who was kneeling there, closed his eyes and dozed off because Tang Chen had been saying this for a quarter of an hour, and he didn't listen to a word.

Beside Tang Chen, Nan Rongwenjun, wearing a ceremonial garment, was full of smiles. She was very happy from the bottom of her heart, and it was the first time she could show her smile in front of Tang Xiaohao without any concealment.

For this seemingly sinister woman, she really hated Tang Xiaohao, the concubine son. No, it should be said that even the concubine son is not a question, but an illegitimate son.

She still remembers that on that snowy night more than ten years ago, Tang Chen, wearing iron armor, returned in the heavy snow, and was still holding a baby boy sleeping peacefully in his arms. At that time, just above the main hall, Tang Chen told Nan Rongwenjun that this was the son born to him by a woman outside, and that was also his first son. For the sake of the Tang family's inheritance, he had to bring the child back to raise him.

Tang Chen's words made Nan Rongwenjun almost fall down. Her first reaction was that she could not give birth to a son, so Tang Chen did this.

Nan Rongwenjun always thought that her husband was different from other men, but the fact that was in front of her stabbed her in the heart.

Nan Rongwenjun went up to snatch the child like crazy, trying to throw the child to death, but Tang Chen pushed him away and told him sternly that the child was his bloodline. He would rather break up with the Nan Rong family than keep him in good condition.

After that day, Nan Rongwenjun was depressed and cursed the child in his heart every day. He even wanted to poison and kill the innocent child many times. She was not worried that all the things that Tang Chen created would eventually fall into the hands of the child. She just hated Tang Chen's betrayal and hated her deep love for this man.

Yes, Nan Rongwenjun loved Tang Chen deeply. Although Nan Rongwenjun opposed her father Nan Rongqufeng and even threatened her by suicide, when she first saw Tang Chen, she was attracted by this man whose iron armor was still stained with the blood of the enemy.

Nan Rongwenjun began to think that Tang Chen was either a rough martial artist or a weak fan. He never expected that he was so tough and handsome. Although he was wearing iron armor, his eyebrows were filled with elegance.

With just a glance, Nan Rongwenjun was completely in trouble. After getting married, Nan Rongwenjun also found that this man was not as domineering as his father, and he was extremely respectful to him, and would not say anything like "abiding the morals of a woman".

The deeper you love, the more you hate it. Therefore, Nan Rongwenjun hated not Tang Xiaohao at the beginning, but Tang Chen.

However, Nan Rongwenjun soon discovered something was wrong. No matter how she looked, she could not see the similarity between Tang Xiaohao and Tang Chen. Logically speaking, there are always similarities between father and son. Although Tang Xiaohao was also beautiful, it was not the same as Tang Chen's handsomeness and toughness.

With some temptations in words, Nan Rongwenjun was almost sure that this child was not Tang Chen's illegitimate son at all, nor his biological son.

After discovering this, Nan Rongwenjun felt much better. Although she still didn't understand why Tang Chen wanted to bring back a child who was not his biological child, her attitude towards the child changed.

The most important thing is that this child is too smart and sensible.

Nan Rongwenjun still remembers that when Tang Xiaohao was eight years old, she was bedridden and she thought she might not be able to get through it. She even called Tang Chen and his two daughters to the bed to explain their last words.
