Chapter 198: Well Prepared
Mo Wen smiled and took out a piece of paper, which was Dongming Ziyu's handwriting.
The old man unfolded the paper and started reading.
Everyone started to cheer. Although it was the first time for King Xuan to marry, he was quite well prepared.
There was a young master from the Shangguan family who had fought with Guan Tianxiao on the battlefield once, so he rolled up his arms and sleeves and said, "It's not that easy to pick up my sister. Come on! Get through me first."
"
Someone reminded: "King Xuan is the God of War!"
"Ahem!" The young master hurriedly stepped aside and said with a silly smile: "I'm just kidding, I'm just kidding!"
"Oh~ I don't have the guts!" the people around him cheered.
Seeing his clear eyes and quirky spirit, Dongming Ziyu gestured to Mo Wen and rewarded him with a purse.
Then he walked into the Meixiang Garden, his deep eyes were frighteningly bright and full of joy.
The fiery red wedding dress warmed his brows and eyes, giving him a gentle and jade-like feeling.
"Oh my God! Your Highness Prince Xuan looks better when he's not cold!"
"She is so handsome that she looks like she stepped out of a painting."
"So handsome! His Royal Highness Prince Xuan is the most handsome man in the world!"
…
In the eyes of all the women, only Dongming Ziyu came in such a stride.
The various people watching the excitement and the surrounding green trees and red flowers all turned into a black and white background.
Shangguan Ruoxian's eyes were red, and her heart was as sharp as a knife when she saw such a handsome King Xuan approaching with a smile on his lips.
Shangguan Ruoli couldn't see this scene, as her sight was covered by the red hijab.
In her mind, she could see the scene of her getting married to Yuan Hao in the ecstasy, and she felt as if she was lost.
I don’t know if he is married or if he is playing the piano and playing the piano with his bride.
With this thought in mind, Dongming Ziyu entered the room.
But it was not so easy to pick up the bride, so a few bold little sisters made things difficult and made fun of her.
Mo Wen and Mo Xiang decisively took out their heavy purses and distributed them to everyone, asking them to let their master pick up the bride quickly.
Shangguan Ruoli only heard that the room was full of people, and could only see the toes of a pair of soap boots embroidered with cloud patterns in front of her.
Finally, her vision went dark, and a muscular body squatted in front of her.
"Li'er, come here, let me carry you to the sedan chair!" It was Shangguan Yu's voice.
Here, the bride's feet cannot touch the ground during the process of getting into the sedan chair. Brothers in the family have to carry the bride on their backs to get into the sedan chair, which means that the bride's family has brothers to help.
Shangguan Ruoli lay on Shangguan Yu's back, he stood up steadily and carried her out the door.
Zheng Shuyue's eyes suddenly turned red. When she got married, her brother, who was a concubine, carried her to the sedan chair. Her brother had already died on the battlefield with his father.
Shangguan Ruoli was carried onto the sedan chair by Shangguan Yu, and the sedan door was closed.
The eunuch in charge of the ceremony announced in a sharp voice: "The bride is getting married!"
The sound of suona, gongs and drums sounded, and firecrackers also crackled at the same time.
Shangguan Ruoli felt the sedan shudder and was lifted steadily.
Dongming Ziyu is riding on a tall horse, high-spirited and refreshed.
The queue for welcoming the bride and the queue for sending off the bride can be seen as far as the eye can see, and the dowry stretches for miles.
It’s true: ten miles of red makeup, unlimited scenery.
The people watching the fun laughed, danced and were all infected by the lively scene, but no one worried whether the new Princess Xuan would die on their wedding night like the five previous Princesses Xuan.
Shangguan Tianxiao came out of an alley, looked at the sedan chair going away from a distance, bit his fists and cried: "Li'er! Daddy's Li'er! Woo hoo..."
According to the rules of this era, the bride's parents were not allowed to appear at the wedding on the wedding day.
The day before the bride's wedding, the bride's family will hold a bride's wedding banquet, which is also the last meal the girl eats in her natal family, because after getting married, she becomes a member of the groom's family. All the close relatives and close friends of her natal family are invited.
Watching his daughter drift away and become someone else's family, Shangguan Tianxiao felt as if his treasure had been snatched away by life.
But he didn't feel sad for too long. There were still relatives to entertain at home, and they didn't leave. They wanted to continue having the banquet, because tomorrow is the day when Shangguan Ruoxian will leave the cabinet.
The procession of welcoming the bride from Prince Xuan's Mansion circled the city. The scene was very grand, with people watching the excitement surrounding them.
The older girls and younger wives looked at Dongming Ziyu with blue eyes, feeling that such a handsome and unparalleled person had been ruined by that blind man Shangguan Ruoli.
Some people even hoped that Shangguan Ruoli would be tortured and killed in the bridal chamber like the five predecessors, although they looked at Dongming Ziyu's expression and felt that Shangguan Ruoli would most likely not die this time.
But when a person goes crazy, who can say what he will do?
After all, for a man, especially a high-ranking prince, to be incompetent in that aspect is simply a great shame and humiliation.
It's a long journey around the city. Shangguan Ruoli didn't sleep all night last night. He sat in the sedan chair and was so dizzy that he dozed off.
She dozed off and almost fell down. She suddenly woke up, pinched her face, lifted her hijab, and opened a corner of the sedan curtain, trying to secretly see where she was.
Not far away from Zhiweizhai, Wei Jingyang and Xiao Fei stood there, smiling as they watched the wedding procession pass in front of them.
Bai Qingyan was wearing a headhunter's uniform, with his hand on the handle of the knife on his waist, leading a team of policemen, and vigilantly moved through the crowd of spectators.
In addition, there were some majestic and strong men in the crowd, one not far away, scanning the crowd warily, obviously guarding the wedding procession.
Suddenly, Shangguan Ruoli saw a familiar figure in front of a window on the second floor of the teahouse.
Qu Xiaohan!
He hasn't left yet?
Wearing a moon-white robe, he stood by the window, forgetting to swing the fan in his hand. His eyes were glued to the sedan chair, looking lonely and sad.
Shangguan Ruoli put down the curtain of the sedan chair and sighed softly. Unexpectedly, Qu Xiaohan was very affectionate towards the original owner.
The original owner couldn't see it and didn't expect that Qu Xiaohan's love for her was much deeper than her love for him.
Half an hour later, I heard the sound of firecrackers again and knew that Prince Xuan's Mansion had arrived.
Dongming Ziyu kicked the sedan door and shot the curtain at Xi Niang's prompting.
The sedan curtain was lifted, and a piece of bright red silk was stuffed into Shangguan Ruoli's hand.
Shangguan Ruoli yawned, and was led out of the sedan by Dongming Ziyu and crossed the saddle.
Rejoice reminded Shangguan Ruoli in her ear: "Miss, it's time to step over the brazier."
Shangguan Ruoli squeezed her hand gently to show that he understood.
The wedding dress was cumbersome, and the hem at the back only stretched one or two meters, and it was easy to set the dress on fire when stepping over the brazier.
Shangguan Ruoli is not really blind and has martial arts skills, so he will naturally not be afraid of the brazier.
Unexpectedly, she was suddenly picked up by someone. She let out a soft cry and grabbed the person's clothes.
"Ouch~" The crowd immediately burst into laughter.
