Chapter 114: Getting married

Today, Li Lin's Sining Palace was covered with red colors, with joyful lanterns and colorful ribbons tied into flowers and dotted on the green trees and grass. A bunch of firecrackers exploded in front of the door, and the fragrance of gunpowder was spreading in the air, as if the entire mansion was the Jinshi who had won the first place in the lottery and praised the streets. The idle people who came to watch the fun blocked the corners of the streets, but there were only a few carriages in the parking lot, just like a cheerful artist's hat was covered with only a thin layer of copper money.

In the back house of Sining Prince's Mansion, more than a dozen women were all dressed brightly, with pink, eyebrows, and fittings all busy for the bride. The curtain was already putting on makeup for the third time. She looked carefully in the mirror for a long time, but the effect was still not ideal. She sighed softly and turned around and said, "Sister Jingyan, is it because my face is too small?"

Li Jingyan wore a goose yellow shiro silver mud skirt today, and stood behind the curtain with the green light rain, which made the bride's shyness even more. She took the eyebrow pencil and carefully added a touch of her eyebrows. The corners of her mouth with a contour contained a rare tenderness. "No! It's because of the cold weather, you look bad. When you walk around in the sedan, you will feel bloody and light up the candles, and the effect will come out!"

When Xiaoyu heard about riding in a sedan chair, she said with a grudge: "Go out of the back door and come in from the front door. Can the complexion of this cold and the eyes of those people be better?"

Seeing her talking nonsense, Lian'er winked at her. Xiaoyu was so scared that she covered her mouth. Her big eyes secretly looked at everyone, as if the words she said would disappear from the air, which was quite a bit concealed.

Li Jingyan like to explain to Xiaoyu and to everyone: "Actually, these are all my father's ideas. He only seeks good feng shui, but does not think about our women's feelings."

As soon as this said, more than a dozen pairs of surprised eyes slowly eased, praising the streets for being small, and it was a big deal to ruin Feng Shui. So the street jokes that were about to be formed gradually disappeared. Lian'er was grateful in her heart and secretly pinched Li Jingyan's hand. However, Li Qing didn't want to show off and came up with such a bad idea. She wanted to do it secretly, but Xiaoyu was quick to speak out.

Li Jingyan looked at the curtain gently, held her hand, feeling her gratitude and joy, but she felt a little sad. She forced a smile and said, "It's getting late, hurry up and try out the fitting!"

At this time, Princess Sining walked in quietly. She was Li Jingyan's stepmother. She was about her early thirties and was born beautifully and a famous family in the Cui family. She drove all the others in the room out, then walked up to grab Li Jingyan and Xiaoyu and smiled and said, "I want to say some private words to the bride, the two girls should avoid it!"

Li Jingyan and Xiaoyu's faces turned red at the same time, as if they had heard something that should not have heard the least. They slipped away shyly, and the curtain was so embarrassed that even his neck was red. There was a light of joy in her eyes. She could no longer sit still, and she broke away from Princess Si Ning's hand and ran into the inner room.

In contrast to the erotic and pleasant woman's room, Li Qing was surrounded by smoke and roaring. Dozens of uninvited East Palace guards were crowded in the room, making today's male protagonist dizzy. They were all experienced and each had their own unique skills. They did not hesitate to teach Li Qing their own insights and experiences. Together, they became a complete thirty-six strategies for bridal chambers. The one who danced the most fiercely was Li Huqiu. He was Li Qing's bodyguard, but at this time he became the leader of the rebels.

After finally finding an excuse, Li Qing rushed out of the room and uncovered it from the air that was about to suffocate him. The air outside was fresh, as if he had returned to the free world and sent two families away. He looked up at the sky. It was still early, so he walked quickly along the path in the bamboo forest behind the house to the back house. Although he knew he couldn't see anything, his subconscious still made him want to go and see it. He didn't sleep well last night, but he became even more excited, nervous and expectant. He felt that the strings in his body were about to break, but his feet seemed to have an unstoppable pulley, which made him unable to calm down for a moment.

The back house and the front yard were separated by a long white wall. The gap between the flower wall was green, red and thin, green, revealing the breath of spring. Li Qing walked along the narrow flower path aimlessly. At this time, a familiar laugh came from the fork in front, haha! It was Xiaoyu. Li Qing heard her sweet and glutinous laughter, and a naughty smile appeared on her face. Seeing that there was no one in front and behind, she quickly squatted behind a rock, held her breath, and the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and a yellow skirt floated in front of her. Li Qing shouted

With a loud voice, he stood up suddenly, his hands dressed as corners and trembled on his head, his mouth was tilted, his blood-red tongue spitting out long, his eyes turned pale, and a scream was heard. The girl in the yellow skirt in front of him jumped up in shock, and the green skirt behind him took two steps back, pressed his chest with his hands, and stared at him blankly. Li Qing suddenly realized something was wrong. Less than half a foot in front of his face was a clear and beautiful face. His eyes were supposed to be cold, but there was a bit of human breath because of fear. The two faces were very close, and he could even smell the other person's breath.

"Damn it, it's not Xiaoyu!"

Xiaoyu, who had always been wearing a yellow dress, changed into a green dress today, standing ten feet away, blinking her big eyes and carefully identifying the familiar evil ghost. She shouted in surprise, "Young Master, why are you here?"

"I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person!" Li Qing quickly took a step back, touched the back of his head embarrassedly, and laughed. Seeing that the other party's fear had passed away, a hint of shy blush appeared on his white porcelain-like face, but it seemed like he was doing magic. In the blink of an eye, the shyness disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, several wedding girls came to see you. They saw Li Qing from afar and shouted loudly, "Where are you!" Before he could speak, the wedding girls surrounded him and complained: "We are looking for you everywhere, and if we don't change clothes, it's too late. Come with us quickly!"

Li Qing took the opportunity to step down, and he laughed dryly at the two of them, "You guys are busy, I have something to do! I have something to do!" After that, he followed Xiong Niang in a panic.

Time is getting closer and closer, and a few guests are already here. They are sitting bored in the living room. Wang Bingge has arrived early and competes with his strength in a group of guards in the East Palace. The gate registration office is filled with housekeepers from various prefectures to give gifts.

"I'm so sorry. My master has something to do and can't come. I'll give you a gift."

The reasons are different, but the result is the same. The master cannot come if he has something to do.

Although expected, the deserted lobby still made Li Qing depressed. There were less than ten guests, and they were all for Li Lin's face. No one of the invitations he sent came.

"Congratulations, Li Sheren!"

Just as he was thinking, a guest finally came to the door, but Cui Qiao was full of spring breeze. While congratulating, his eyes were around Li Qing's shoulder and looking inside, as if he was looking for something.

Li Qing knew his thoughts and replied with a smile: "It's still early now, and it's not time for a wedding. Lord Cui came a little early. Please invite him to sit in the guest hall!"

But after Cui Qiao passed, no one came. Time passed slowly, and the sky gradually darkened. The sedan chair for the wedding was already out and would come back soon. However, most of the guests who were watching the ceremony were empty. Except for Cui Qiao, most of the people sitting in the living room were low-ranking officials of the fifth and sixth ranks. Li Lin was talking to the guests, but her eyes were occasionally turned to the door, hoping that a few more heavyweight guests would come to support the scene. This was the first time he had met such a wedding scene, which was really embarrassing.

So, a scene appeared in front of Li Lin's mansion. The gate was deserted and there was no one on the two long registration tables. More than a dozen family members were standing stupidly. The groom Li Qing and Li Zhao, who accompanied him, stretched their necks and looked at the streets on both sides. The people who were watching the fun had already dispersed their joy money. Only a group of children were looking for the fun money that had leaked the net. A gust of wind blew, making everyone's clothes rush, rolled up firecrackers and paper scraps on the ground, and drifted to the empty streets.

At this time, the dense sound of horse hooves broke through the coldness. A wide carriage slowly stopped at the door of the mansion under the tight escort of the hundreds of horsemen. Before Li Qing could step forward, Li Linfu's smile had already heard from the carriage, "This is the wrong thing about Li Sheren. How can I not invite me like this kind of wedding?" As he said, Li Linfu's huge body walked out of the car with the support of the guards. Seeing that the door was neglected, he frowned and said, "How could this happen? The human relationship is so cold."

When he turned around, Li Linfu filled with sincere smiles again, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and a slight light was slightly emitted from the slit. He bowed to Li Qing and congratulated him: "The four great joys in life, the wedding candles are the first priority. I congratulate Li Sheren."

Li Qing stepped forward and bowed to the ground, "Li Qing did not dare to disturb the prime minister, so he did not send an invitation. Unexpectedly, the prime minister actually came in person, which really moved his subordinates."

"Where! Where!" Li Linfu took Li Qing's hand, looked him up and down, and said apologetically: "I didn't know that Li Sheren was newly married, so I actually organized Li Sheren into the mission to Nanzhao. The emperor has already approved it and will set off the next day. I'm so sorry!"

Li Qing couldn't help but become confused. Even if he went to Nanzhao, it should be the arrangement of the prince. According to the principle, the prince lost the dominance of Nanzhao and would not push him out. Why has it become Li Linfu's intention now? Which part of the matter is wrong?

When Li Lin and a group of guests heard that the Prime Minister had come in person, they all rushed out to greet him. Soon, Yang Shenjin, the Minister of Personnel, and Ji Wen, the Censor, came with their wives and daughters one after another. These were Li Linfu's hard-core confidants and they all came uninvited. Li Linfu said softly and everyone wanted to cater to him. The atmosphere in the lobby suddenly became lively. Li Qing smiled bitterly. Although he had face, he was labeled with the mark of the Prime Minister and the charge of betrayal was confirmed in Li Heng's heart.

At this time, the drums and music were faintly loud. It was probably because the new sedan chair was back. The political faction was no longer important. The groom was surrounded by ministers and returned to the lobby. The Sining Prince's Mansion mobilized together, packed up the tables and chairs at the door, lit up the lanterns, and 108 big red lanterns lined up from the door to the main hall. It was auspicious and festive, and spectacular. The firecrackers on the street were loudly sounding, and the drummers lined up all the eight characters, and they all held their strength. Suddenly, the door of the mansion opened wide. A sedan chair came in from the door. More than a dozen slight music from the mansion came out. Twelve pairs of palace lanterns came in. The wedding girl helped the newcomer out of the sedan chair. Li Jingyan and Xiaoyu stood on the left and right, with a big red veil on their heads, behind the curtains in bright red wedding uniforms, and the sound of firecrackers exploded happily in front of the bride. The master announced loudly: "The auspicious time is here!"

Li Lin and Cui Qiao temporarily acted as parents on both sides of the lobby, waiting for the newlyweds to celebrate the house with a smile, but at this moment, many strange faces appeared in the crowd in the yard. Looking at the situation in the venue, a person with an eunuch looked quietly in front of Li Lin and whispered a few words to him. Li Lin stood up suddenly, rushed out of the hall to find the butler, and ordered him to clear all the servants and servants away immediately, and whispered a few words to Li Linfu and others. Everyone stood up at the same time, looking at the gate, and thought to himself, "What kind of person is Li Qing? He has such a great face."

Li Zhao, who was responsible for arranging guests, found many strange faces in the yard, and didn't know where they came in. He was about to come forward to ask, but at this time, a large group of men in black surrounded a guest and strode in. Li Zhao quickly came forward and saw the visitor in his early sixties, wearing a brocade satin robe, with a jade belt on his waist, tall, fair skin, thin eyes and long eyebrows, and an extremely majestic demeanor in his peaceful face. Li Zhao was shocked when he saw it, and quickly knelt down and kowtowed. Before he could kneel down, the two of them immediately flashed across the left and right, extremely fast and held him in a hand. Li Zhao immediately reacted, so he turned to bow to the ground and whispered: "My father of Hongwenguan, Li Zhao, see Your Majesty!"

The visitor was Li Longji, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He had come in contempt and had notified Li Lin in advance. However, time was in a hurry and Li Zhao didn't know it. Fortunately, the guards acted quickly and stopped him, which avoided the embarrassment. Li Linfu, Li Lin, Cui Qiao and others rushed forward to see him. Li Longji nodded with a smile. He walked slowly to Li Qing with his hands behind his back and smiled slightly, "I heard that you got married today. On behalf of Princess Yuzhen, I will congratulate you."

After saying that, he turned around and turned his eyes, and immediately a team of guards carried dozens of large cages into the corner, piled up in the corner of the wall, like a hill.

"This is the congratulations that Princess Yuzhen and I gave you. They are all common items, and you should use them."

Li Longji took out a small gold box from his arms and handed it to Li Qing, and smiled and said, "This is my gift to you, you have to pack it."

Li Qing never dreamed that Li Longji would come to attend his wedding in person. He was moved, but he could not reveal his identity, so he had to take the gold box and whisper: "I remember the holy grace!"

Li Longji smiled, glanced at the guests, and then turned to Li Lin and Li Linfu and said, "I won't be staying for a long time. I have to go back, you guys continue."

After saying that, he quietly left Li Lin's mansion under the escort of a group of guards. Those mysterious faces disappeared like bubbles, as if nothing had happened.

As soon as Li Longji left, the lobby became festive again. The host announced loudly, "The auspicious time has come! Please invite new people to the hall."

The mom helped the bride and handed the other end of the red knot to Li Qing. The emcee led them to slowly walk to the joy table. In front of the bright joy candle, a mom cut off a bunch of hair on the heads of the two newlyweds, tied it into knots, placed it in the red plate, and placed it under the big "moe" character, symbolizing the two of them.

I don’t know how long it took, Li Qing was dizzy and quilted into the bridal chamber. The red candles in the bridal chamber were shining brightly, and the joy was filled with joy. The newlyweds sat slightly in front of the bed, and Li Hu Gun and the others appeared from beginning to end. This seemed a bit unreasonable.

Li Qing lay on the ground and saw more than a dozen ambiguous smiling faces crowded under the bed. Two squatted behind the door, under the table and even behind the curtains.

"Get out of here!"

Everyone laughed and said, pushing me and walking out the door.

"Stop! Where is Li Huqiu? Where is it?"

Everyone looked at Li Qing and said in unison: "Congratulations! Congratulations!" and rushed to run away.

There was no in the wardrobe, and there was no behind the corner curtain. Li Qing looked around and didn't find him hiding where he was hiding. However, he saw the curtain's hand slightly pointing to the bed. Li Qing stepped forward and opened the tent. Sure enough, he saw a silk quilt that was not as high as that. He kicked him hard through the quilt, and said angrily and funny: "Will you go?"

Li Hugen slowly crawled out and pretended to be surprised and said, "It turns out that this is a bridal chamber. I drank a few more drinks and went to the wrong place. You guys are busy! You guys are busy!"

As soon as the door opened, the people squeezed into the door ran away. Li Qing threw Li Hu's spear out, then closed the door, stepped forward and gently lifted the bride's veil. The curtain was full of makeup and clothes, with soft shoulders, soft eyes, gentle as pink lotus hanging, shy as apricot flowers and smoke. Li Qing sat next to her and was about to speak, but with a 'ah' sound, jumping up like a needle prick, scaring the curtain, and turning his head slightly, "Li Lang, what's wrong?"

Li Qing took out a gold box from his underwear and smiled and said, "This is what His Majesty gave me just now, I don't know what it is inside."

Li Qing was curious and wanted to open it, but found that the gold box had been welded to death. It was a whole and could not be opened at all. When he was hesitating, he felt that the curtain was soundless. When he looked up, he saw her head hanging down and waiting for him without saying a word.
