Chapter 111 Wedding Night

After nearly a month, Zheng Lianqing finally arrived in Chang'an from Jinzhou, Shannan Road, when the emperor's marriage deadline was about to expire.

When Tang Li heard that Zheng Lianqing had already been in Xinfeng County, he had no intention of engaging in this giant man anymore, so he immediately pulled his hand and stood up and walked out.

When Li Tengjiao saw Tang Li leave, he hurriedly took back the hand that was teasing the little tiger, stood up, and followed him out.

When Tang Li was about to reach the gate of the courtyard, he saw Li Tengjiao following him, stood still and patted her on the shoulder and said, "You wait at home, I'll go back soon."

"I want to go too", but this sentence made her close girl Baozhu sisters. Li Tengjiao pulled Tang Li's sleeve and said this, when Yuzhu whispered: "Miss, let the young master go, you can't go in this matter."

Hearing this, Li Tengjiao immediately turned around and asked, "Why can't I go?"

"You are the eldest lady in the mansion. How can the eldest lady go so far to welcome the new lady? It must be that she will go to your room to pay a visit when she arrives!"

Tang Li did not mean to bring Li Tengjiao to welcome Zheng Lianqing. Instead, he heard Yuzhu's words and was moved for a moment, "Since you want to go, let's go together."

Li Tengjiao was so concerned about it. When she was newlywed, she was the most attached to Tang Li. When she heard him say she would go together, she immediately agreed happily, ignored the Baozhu sisters, and walked out of the yard happily.

"Miss, Miss..." After shouting a few times, he saw Li Tengjiao go back without looking back. Yuzhu, who stomped his feet and sighed, turned around and saw Baozhu looking at her thoughtfully, then frowned and said, "Sister, why didn't you speak just now? This is not a trivial matter! If the lady loses her position, we sisters will not be able to fall in love with her."

"Sister, you really shouldn't say what you said just now in front of the young master today." Seeing Yuzhu's face with disapproval, Baozhu stepped forward and took her hand and said, "Although we are still following the lady, we are not here to go to the prime minister's house. No matter what, the young master is in charge of this mansion. There is no one in the mansion who likes the wife to compete for the favor! The young master is kind-hearted, but once he is a taboo, it will be very difficult to save him. Although you and my sister are maids, you should think more about everything for her, but you should pay attention to your words and actions, or you can get into a place without a place first! But what is it? Sister, you should pay more attention in the future."

....................................

The wind of willows is not cold. In early spring, February is the best time to ride a horse. Li Tengjiao's land was instigated, and Zheng Peng was anxious and angry. Tang Li ordered to abandon his carriage and horses, and a group of four horses came out of Jing'anfang Tang Mansion and Chang'an City to Xinfeng.

After ten miles away from the Pavilion. Not far from the Ba Bridge, Xiaopangqiuer shouted excitedly, whipping the horse and urging the horse to lean towards the seven or eight carriages on the road ahead.

When this small convoy saw Zheng Peng, someone immediately shouted loudly: "Young Master, it's Young Master!" After a moment of chaos, the convoy had gradually stopped and saw two girls walking off the old lady Zheng in the second large car.

Zheng Peng, who was planning to go to find his sister's car driver, saw that his grandmother had arrived, turned over and got off the horse and called out, "Grandma", and was ordered by Mrs. Zheng to kneel down. Although Xiaopang Qiuer was very domineering in the mansion, he finally did not go against the wishes of his ancestors. He knelt on the side of the road with aggrieved heart.

Seeing Xiaopang pouting and bulging, Tang Li, who was riding forward, laughed, turned over and got off the horse and bowed, "I left Jinzhou last year, and I didn't realize that it has been more than a year since the old lady is as healthy as ever, which is really gratifying."

Since Tang Li approached his horse just now, Mrs. Zheng's eyes have never left him. She has never seen him for more than a year. The poor young man in the Jinzhou envoy's mansion has now become frivolous and less arrogant than before. However, she has more wealth and grace. This external change is consistent with his reputation spread throughout the world.

"I'm still calling me an old lady?" After carefully examining Tang Li, Mrs. Zheng with a beautiful face smiled and said, "In the past year, Ali first received the honors from the Congratulations Department, and then "Tang Poetry Review" became famous all over the world until the top scorer in high school. These joys came, grandma was in a happy mood every day, and it was too late to be happy for you and Qing'er, so how could she grow old?"

When he was in Jinzhou, Tang Li knew very well about Mrs. Zheng, so it was not surprising that he was like this. After smiling and perfunctory, he directly asked to see Zheng Lianqing.

Tang Li's greetings with Mrs. Zheng just now made Li Tengjiao very upset. When she heard Tang Li say this, she immediately shouted excitedly: "That's right, look at the bride!"

Mrs. Zheng had already noticed Li Tengjiao, but Tang Li did not introduce her, so she was not inconvenient to ask. At this time, she saw her speak and smiled and said, "What is this?"

"This is the inner person Li Tengjiao, Tengjiao, I have come to see Mrs. Zheng." Tang Li smiled and waved his hand. Li Tengjiao immediately stepped forward and bowed to the old lady. He couldn't wait to say, "Old lady, let's meet the bride! I can't wait."

The husband cannot interrupt the wife when he speaks. This is the most basic requirement for women's education. Li Tengjiao rushed to interrupt. At this time, when he said such disagreements to her, Mrs. Zheng was very despised by this wild girl who was not a famous scholar, but due to her origin, she still said nothing. Although there was still a smile on her face, she could not help but say indifferently: "The marriage has not been completed. If we meet in this kind of manners, we will meet again after the wedding."

Seeing her bringing out the "ritual", Tang Li knew that this trip was a waste of time today. As expected, after Mrs. Zheng said this to Li Tengjiao, she turned her head and said to him: "'The relatives of scholars and commoners, prepare the six rituals. Even if the emperor gave the marriage, it would be unacceptable! We will stay in Chang'an Le's house for a while. This period of one month is approaching. A Li will return now and ask the church to organize the six rituals, so that we can achieve the wedding as soon as possible."

Knowing that Mrs. Zheng is hard to get in, Tang Li looked at the convoy carefully and threw a helpless look at the little fat ball that was still kneeling on the side of the road. He did not bother him and rode away again.

A few days later, the Tang Mansion repeated the old things again. Fortunately, everyone had just organized the marriage and were all familiar with it, so they were very skilled. During this period, Tang Li was indeed busy, and Li Tengjiao was heartless and kept talking nonstop.

Nacai asked for names, Najib, Nazheng, and asked for appointments. Although the time was rushed, the Zheng family was not careless about these matters. They delayed this for three days and finally completed the welcoming ceremony on the fourth day.

It was getting deeper at night, wearing the same style of auspicious clothes, Tang Li, who was wearing a faint moonlight, pushed open the door with a "creaking" sound. He stepped into the new house for the second time in one month.

The same program is still the same. The women in charge of laying the bed still have the same instructions. The difference is that the new man in the room is slim and has a big red wedding cloth covered on his head.

After three cups of wine, the mother and the boy who served the wine had already left. As the red candle jumped, Tang Li picked up the silver pickup on the table and gently picked up the big red veil.

I have known each other for a long time, but only tonight. Tang Li saw Zheng Lianqing's true face for the first time.

Like a weak willow with his hands and knees, Zheng Lianqing sat down on the edge of the couch with his eyebrows, with a standard sweet potato face. Tang Li looked at her for the first time and knew that Xiaopangqiu said that his sister was the most beautiful woman in the Zheng family that day, and this was true.

If she wants to describe her face, the best word is the word "exquisite". It is like this when she disassembles each part and combines it together. However, in this red room, on the red night, her upright body still exudes a faint alienation and resentment. The delicate face also has an unconcealable sorrow in the slight blush. The combination of this breath on her body, her slender figure and classical face, has a unique sense of sorrow for her.

With the warm light extinguishing candlelight, Tang Li looked at her carefully for a long time, and while walking towards her, he smiled and called out softly: "Liqing..."

It was this soft call, like a huge rock hitting Zheng Lianqing's heart. In the blink of an eyebrow, a drop of crystal tears had quietly slid down. The tears that reflected the colorful light of candlelight were like the first flow when a mountain torrent broke out. Almost instantly, a series of beads had rolled down, shattering the powder between the cheeks, diluting the cardamom vermilion between the lips, revealing the original paleness.

With both hands tightly pressing the big red gauze scarf in her hand, Zheng Lianqing, who bit her lips, made no sound. She kept shaking her body slightly sobbing silently and she burst into tears...

Seeing a scene, Tang Li, who quietly stopped himself, seemed to have returned to the shore of Yueer Lake in Jinzhou, and back to that night when the moon was hanging high...

The night wind suddenly came mischievously, blowing the curtains on the windows in the room, causing a shaking rustling sound. It was this sound that alarmed Tang Li in his contemplative manner.

Tang Li, who was walking quickly, sat side by side with Zheng Lianqing, did not hesitate at all, and suddenly hugged the woman beside him tightly into his arms.

"It's over! Everything is over. I will cherish you. I won't let you suffer any grievances. If you want to cry, you will cry out loud. After the rain, the sky will be clear." Tang Li's soft whisper was as if he was comforting Zheng Lianqing, and as if he was muttering to himself.

He hesitated, reached out his hand, and hesitated and slowly hugged Tang Li's waist. I wonder why Zheng Lianqing's thin body had such great strength, and her arms were tighter and tighter. Her face had been buried in Tang Li's chest. While biting her clothes, she could no longer control her crying.

The crying in the quiet night was blocked by Tang Li's body and changed into intermittent sobs, but it was this indescribable dull whimpering sound that had a unique sadness that hurts the heart. Tang Li, who was holding her tightly, patted her shoulders and back without saying a word.

After a long time, the crying gradually stopped. Zheng Lianqing raised a pear blossom-like face, looked at Tang Li silently with his blurred eyes with tears for a long time, and then said softly: "Ali, are you going out with me?"

The sound of "Ali" was so natural. I don't know how long she had practiced in her heart. Looking at the flames that were beating in Zheng Lianqing's stagnant eyes, Tang Li reached out to wipe her tears and said in a harmonious voice: "Okay!"

He got up and took out a red cloth package from the box cage of the new house. After a moment of dazed, Zheng Lianqing took Tang Li's hand and went out of the room to the outer yard.

Under the faint moonlight, Tang Li saw Zheng Lianqing wrapping it up layer by layer, but the last thing she showed was a white dress, and the white veil covered on the skirt was placed.

At the moment when Zheng Lianqing looked at the white dress and white gauze, Tang Li picked up the fire pleats that had been prepared in the package, and trembled in the wind, a small flame ignited slightly.

The fire pleat ignited the white skirt and ignited the veil. During this period, Tang Li never intervened, but just watched the white piece slowly burning in the fire and eventually turned into ashes.

When the last wisp of clear smoke was extinguished, the tears in Zheng Lianqing's eyes had stopped. She silently watched the ashes wandering in the night wind. After a long time, she grabbed Tang Li's hand tightly. She suddenly turned around and stared at Tang Li with her eyes shiny with endless fear and said, "Ali, promise me not to die. Before me, you must not die!"

"If I don't die, I will definitely not die. We won't die!" In Tang Li's arms, with this soft comfort, Zheng Lianqing's stiff body slowly softened, and the fear in his eyes slowly disappeared.

Just now, I suddenly heard footsteps outside the yard, accompanied by the sound of footsteps: "Madam, Madam".

"Cruff!" As the sound of the sound, Li Tengjiao ran in at the opening of the courtyard gate...
