Chapter 95 Marriage
The whole Kyoto city was abuzz with excitement about the wedding between King Xuan and the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Guo.
Before dawn, the Shen family and his wife had been busy with the wedding banquet. Shen Yuanhe followed his parents to welcome the guests at the door.
But unlike this happy scene, Shen Yuanhe smiled very lightly, as if he was hiding something deep in his heart.
The Zhong family should be present at such an occasion. Zhong Mingqi followed behind with a gloomy and ugly expression. Ye Min even scolded him a few words, saying: "Who can show you your shameful face now? I don't know how to fight for my own Muyu head. You can't even get close to the water." At the end of the month, I asked someone to take it away."
Zhong Mingqi lowered his head and said in a low voice: "My cousin has no self in her heart, so what can I do?"
"Now that Ruan Ruan is married, it's time for you to think about your marriage. The four daughters of Uncle Linyuan's family are both talented and virtuous. You can go and see them when you have time."
Zhong Mingqi frowned and turned his head.
No one in this world can compare to my cousin. If it weren't for her, I would rather never marry in my life.
When he looked up, Ye Min saw that he and Ye Zhen were holding hands and talking to each other. He and Shen Yuanhe nodded and smiled slightly from a distance, treating it as hello.
At this moment, in Qingshui Residence, Zhong Mingyue, dressed in a decent palace dress, was combing Shen Xian's hair.
She has been locked up in the palace recently and learning the rules has been very effective. For example, she couldn't do things like combing her hair before, but now she is very good at it.
Xiang Nong came over holding a golden phoenix crown. Zhong Mingyue happened to pull up her bun, turned around, picked up the phoenix crown and fastened it tightly on her bun.
While tidying up Shen Xian, she sighed with emotion: "You and I always liked to dress up each other when we were young, but when I was a child, I was not good at crafts and was always rejected by you. I must not be able to do that today, right?"
Shen Xian looked at herself becoming more and more beautiful in the bronze mirror, her red lips raised and her eyebrows arched.
"Thank you cousin for holding my hair up."
Zhong Mingyue smiled, then touched the tassel on Shen Xian's crown and frowned slightly: "How fast, you and I are both married."
Shen Xian shifted her gaze from herself to Zhong Mingyue's face: "Cousin is unhappy?"
Zhong Mingyue shook his head: "I'm happy, I'm happy for you, but it will be even harder for me to see you in the future."
After saying that, she smiled helplessly and put down the tassel in her hand: "It would be nice if I wasn't the princess."
Shen Xian was startled.
They have been married for several months, but Zhong Mingyue still has not gotten used to life in the palace. Even if she learns the rules every day, she cannot learn how to behave in the palace.
Shen Xian didn't know how to persuade her, because she didn't want to see Zhong Mingyue blocked by a red wall, but in fact they couldn't do anything.
Just when Shen Xian was about to say something, Zhong Mingyue suddenly took out an oil paper bag from her sleeves and stuffed it into Shen Xian's hand. She also read: "This palace costume is ugly and difficult to walk. The only advantage is that it can Hiding something."
"Here, I asked people to line up to buy the mung bean cake in the south of the city early in the morning."
Zhong Mingyue said as if she had come before: "Getting married is simply torture for a woman. She can't eat or drink, so how can she have the strength to get married? You can hide it in your sleeves and eat some when you're hungry. Don't I'm so hungry."
Shen Xian chuckled, nodded and stuffed the oil paper bag into her sleeves.
As soon as she had hidden her fat body, Xi Po opened the door and came in. She smiled flatteringly and said to Shen Xian, "Second girl, hurry up and cover your head. The bride is coming."
Xiang Nong quickly took the tray and handed it to Zhong Mingyue, who picked up the hijab and unfolded it. There were two circling and flying phoenixes embroidered on the square red hijab, which means dragon and phoenix present good fortune.
"As soon as the hijab comes off, the bride bids farewell to her parents and goes out to parade."
Zhong Mingyue suddenly stood up: "How can it be so easy for them to pick up Ruan Ruan!"
"Cousin, what do you want to do?" Shen Xian covered her head and was confused.
Zhong Mingyue crossed her arms and smiled, dragging Xi Po and Xiang Nong out. She happened to meet Shi Ling who came to pick up the bride, accompanied by Shi Yanyuan and A Feng, and there was a gold guard at the back door.
When Shi Yanyuan saw her coming out, he said, "Mingyue, bring sister A-Xian out quickly."
Zhong Mingyue blocked the door and raised her chin and said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry, it's still early for the auspicious time."
"What do you mean?"
Shi Ling also frowned.
No one told him that he came to pick up his wife happily and was stopped outside the door?
Zhong Mingyue curled her lips and snorted: "I just want to test how well King Xuan knows Ruan Ruan, so as to avoid more quarrels after the marriage." After saying this, he glanced at Xiang Nong, who immediately reacted.
He cleared his throat and asked: "I, what is my lady's favorite fragrance?"
Shi Yanyuan originally asked Zhong Mingyue to stop messing around, but before he could say anything, his imperial uncle said: "Rose."
Zhong Mingyue raised her eyebrows and nodded.
Xiang Nong: "What is your favorite flower?"
Shi Ling added: "Wild cotton, green peony."
Shen Xian heard Shi Ling turning around in the room and couldn't help but lower her head and laugh.
It turns out he knew everything.
Zhong Mingyue nodded, but her expression was a little stiff. She turned around to stop Xiang Nong, put her hands on her hips and raised her head and asked: "Let me ask, if Ruan Ruan is sick and you happen to have something important to do and have to go to the palace, what would you do?"
Shi Yanyuan was the first to answer: "Of course you should find the imperial doctor first and then enter the palace."
Zhong Mingyue rolled her eyes, and Shi Yanyuan was stunned. Isn't it wrong?
"No way, I won't let her get sick."
Shi Yanyuan turned to look at him and took a breath. It turned out that there was a third answer to this question!
"Okay, then if Ruan Ruan soils your official robe, will you scold her or just let it go?"
Shi Ling: "I was punishing the servants who cleaned the official robes, but they placed such important clothes haphazardly."
Why is there a third answer?
Shi Yanyuan was confused and wanted to see Zhong Mingyue's reaction to know if he was right. Unexpectedly, Zhong Mingyue rolled her eyes at him and did not embarrass Shi Ling.
Zhong Mingyue said again: "Then if you are discussing something in a brothel and a woman insists on getting into your arms, what will you do?"
Shi Yanyuan learned this and immediately wanted to show off: "I will definitely push her away immediately and accuse her severely."
Shi Ling said calmly: "I don't want to go to a brothel."
Shi Yanyuan: "..."
Zhong Mingyue didn't remember what she was doing now. She rolled up her sleeves and rushed down, saying angrily: "You still dare to go to a brothel, right?"
"Didn't you say it was a hypothetical?"
"That's not possible! Tell me clearly. When did you go to the brothel? What girl did you order? If you don't tell me clearly today, don't even think about getting in!"
Shi Yanyuan was forced to retreat by Zhong Mingyue, but when he turned around, he found that his imperial uncle had actually taken the opportunity to push Xiang Nong and Xi Po away and rushed into the house.
Shen Xian was still listening carefully to the next question, but she was suddenly picked up by someone in the air. She subconsciously hugged the person's neck tightly. When she heard the familiar and powerful heartbeat, she immediately settled down and climbed onto his lap. Keep your shoulders close to his chest.
Xipo immediately shouted loudly: "The bride is going out!"
Only then did Zhong Mingyue react and turned around to save her again, but Shi Yanyuan hugged her around the waist and made her unable to move.
"I can sleep in the study tonight, but the emperor must marry his wife!"
Zhong Mingyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she could only watch as Shi Ling grinned and took Shen Xian away from her.
