Chapter 239 Getting married
The 22nd day of the sixth lunar month is a good day for getting married.
Before dawn, Yun Xi was pulled out of bed by Xi and Nanny Lin and started to wash and dress. Today, red silk was hung in every corner of the Yun family. The festive atmosphere filled the entire Yunjia Village, and everyone was in high spirits.
Yun Xi washed up and declined the offer to dress her up. She prepared to do it herself.
She has good skin. After applying skin care products, she only applies a thin layer of gouache, which makes her skin look delicate, smooth and tender.
The eyebrows are well-shaped and do not need much modification. Just a few light strokes will make them as curved as a crescent moon.
After applying a little more lip balm, her lips immediately became brighter, just like the first blooming cherry blossoms, delicate and attractive.
The corners of her mouth slightly turned up, revealing a faint smile, gentle and charming.
Ying Tianchen didn't sleep all night, but he was still full of energy.
Without the need for the servants in the palace to urge her, she had already washed and dressed in her wedding dress early, waiting for the servants to comb her hair and put on her wedding crown.
When everything was ready, I couldn't wait to wait at the gate of the palace.
If the auspicious time had not arrived, he would have ridden away on his horse long ago.
When Butler Hou reminded him that the auspicious time had arrived, Ying Tianchen could not wait to mount his horse and lead the wedding procession quickly towards Yunjia Village.
The wedding procession was filled with music and dance, and was extremely lively.
The people in the capital all knew that today was the day of the Southern King's wedding, and everyone ran out to the streets to watch the excitement.
To celebrate the marriage of the Southern King and his wife, all tea at Penglai Teahouse is free today. Qixinglou also set up a buffet outside the restaurant.
Yunji Bakery is also giving away cakes and wedding candies for free.
The people were so happy, and there was no such joy and excitement as during the Chinese New Year. Congratulations were heard everywhere.
Yunjia Village also set up a buffet, and many people from the city who followed the wedding procession unknowingly followed them to Yunjia Village. Seeing the buffet, they sat down to eat a feast with a smile, as they were also hungry.
Some of them just wiped their mouths after eating, said a few words of congratulations and left, while others were embarrassed and took out a few coins as gifts.
Finally, when the Yun family was looking at the gift book, many of the names looked unfamiliar, and the family members racked their brains but could not remember who those people were.
"Hurry, the prince is here."
Mu Hanling ran back to Yunxi's yard from the front yard, panting.
When the people in the room heard this, they hurriedly found a headscarf and covered Yunxi's head.
The one who carried Yunxi to the wedding sedan was Yunqi. Ying Tianchen looked at the red shadow and felt his heart swell.
With a shout of "lift the sedan chair", the wedding procession slowly moved towards the palace in the city.
Today, the Prince of the South is getting married, and the most interesting thing is the dowry of the Princess of the South.
Ten miles of red makeup is not an exaggeration at all.
I heard that the front of the dowry-carrying team had already entered the Southern Prince's Palace, while the back of the team had not yet entered the city. It was truly spectacular.
The people on the roadside watched with great interest and were all extremely envious.
In the crowd, a young lady with her hair tied up in a bun was watching all this with a hideous look on her face, not even noticing her long nails digging into her flesh.
"Auntie Zhou, let's go back."
A little maid beside her called her softly a few times, and Zhou Ling came back to her senses.
He restrained his emotions, nodded slightly, turned and left the crowd.
But she was so angry in her heart. She didn't expect that the man she thought had extraordinary temperament was actually the King of the South, and he married Yun Xi, a country girl.
It was clear that Yun Xi had hooked up with the Southern King when they were in Xiemu County, her hometown, and decided to follow the Southern King to the capital with her whole family. Yun Qi, who claimed to be in love with her, hid everything from her.
If he hadn't concealed such an important thing, how could I not agree to marry him.
If she could marry Yunqi, she would be Yunxi's sister-in-law, and the King of the South would have to call her sister-in-law. Their Zhou family would also become relatives with the King of the South.
This was such a glorious thing for the family, but it was ruined by Yunxi and Yunqi.
hateful! ! !
To put it bluntly, Yunqi was not sincere to her at all, otherwise he would not have hidden these things from her.
In the end, she would not really ignore him, there would be no conflict later, and she would not have stayed in the capital and become her cousin's concubine by accident.
All of this is due to Yunqi, the unfaithful man.
Yun Qi deserves to die, Yun Xi deserves to die, and all members of the Yun family deserve to die.
The more Zhou Ling thought about it, the angrier she became, and the handkerchief in her hand was almost torn to pieces.
Southern Palace.
Yunxi was welcomed into the wedding hall.
Inside the wedding hall, red candles were shining brightly and incense was curling around, creating a solemn and sacred scene.
Following the master of ceremonies’ chanting, Yun Xi and King Nan performed the ceremony of bowing three times.
"Worship heaven and earth."
The two bowed towards the gate and thanked God for giving them this wonderful marriage.
"Two thanks to the high hall."
Ying Tianchen's parents were no longer around, and no other elders were present. The tablets of the late emperor and empress were placed on the high seats.
"Husband and wife bow to each other."
The two of them turned slowly and bent towards each other with bated breath.
"The ceremony is completed and sent to the bridal chamber."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ying Tianchen stopped holding the red silk and directly held Yun Xi's arm to welcome her to the bridal chamber. Suddenly, laughter and teasing were heard all around.
Yun Xi's face turned slightly red under the red veil, but she couldn't help but feel a little amused at the same time.
Ying Tianchen ignored the jokes of others and supported Yun Xi as if she were his treasure. Every time they crossed a threshold or went up and down the stairs, he would gently remind her, "Princess, be careful."
In the bridal chamber, red candles flickered, the bed was covered with a brocade quilt embroidered with auspicious dragons and phoenixes, a variety of cakes and fruits were placed on the table, and a faint fragrance permeated the air.
Yun Xi sat on the edge of the bed, and Ying Tianchen walked slowly forward with the jade ruyi in his hand.
Lifting the red veil, Yun Xi slowly raised her eyes.
The beauty has a face like a peach, her eyes are sparkling, and her long eyelashes tremble slightly, as if a feather gently brushes across the tip of your heart, making you feel itchy and soft.
The wedding dress embroidered with golden phoenixes and the pearls and jades on her head sparkled in the flickering candlelight, and set off by her peerless beauty, she looked like a fairy in a painting, so beautiful that it was beyond description.
"Xier, you are so beautiful." Ying Tianchen couldn't help himself.
"Pfft..."
Inside the wedding room, the people watching the fun were all covering their mouths and laughing.
No matter how thick-skinned Yun Xi was, her face still felt hot.
Ying Tianchen came back to his senses, a blush creeping up his ears.
He coughed lightly, waved away everyone, and prepared to close the door.
"Hey, hey? Why are you chasing us away now? It's still early." Someone was pushing against the door and refused to leave.
Ying Tianchen said coldly, "Would you like to come in and let the prince and princess toast you a glass of wine before you leave?"
Those who still wanted to make trouble in the bridal chamber gave up and thought, forget it, this master is not to be trifled with.
He smiled awkwardly, "No, that's not necessary. I just want to say one more thing: I wish the Prince of Nan and the Princess of Nan a long and happy marriage and a son soon."
After saying that, he ran away. The others also left with laughter.
Ying Tianchen curled his lips: You guys are sensible.
I closed the door, turned back to the bed, and suddenly became nervous.
"Xi'er, it's time for us to...drink the wedding wine..."
