Chapter 1205: The Prince's Wedding
Time passed quickly, and it was all of a sudden that Liu Xuan's wedding day was set by Liu Yu.
During this time, the entire Luoyang City was busy with the prince's wedding.
The busiest department is Shaofu. The person in charge of Shaofu is Li Gui's father, Li Xuesong. Originally, he was going to retire, but this time he was going to go out in person and handle Liu Yu's son's marriage beautifully. Li Gui and Liu Yuke were worried that Li Xuesong would be tired of his body bones, after all, he was nearly eighty years old and couldn't stand the toss. It's just that Li Xuesong insists on doing this, and if he doesn't let him do it, he won't live.
When people get older, they become more and more like children. Liu Yu saw that Li Xuesong insisted, so he gave Li Xuesong this task, but the same three chapters of the law, command and dispatch are good, and you don't have to do it yourself.
Li Xuesong also patted his chest to reassure.
The preparation and purchase of various items were carried out smoothly under the auspices of Li Xuesong. Due to the time constraints, some things are not bought just as you want. The whole Shaofu was distressed, and they were all worried that they had missed Liu Xuan's big event, and they would be blamed by Liu Yu and beheaded all over the house.
There is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure. This kind of problem is a problem in the eyes of others, but it is not a problem at all in Li Xuesong, who is old and sophisticated. Li Xuesong asked the people in Shaofu to make a list of things that could not be purchased, and he had a way to solve it. The Shaofu was overjoyed, and a detailed list that could not be purchased soon appeared in Lao Li's hands.
Lao Li took a look, and left with a very chic movement.
And in the end, this list fell into the hands of Huang Chong, the queen's elder brother, the current uncle, and the richest merchant in the Shenwu court. This was naturally handed over to Huang Chong by Lao Li.
Huang Chong's financial resources are abundant, and the gold and silver treasures at home are almost full, so he naturally has no problem with the list of items handed over by Lao Li. It's my nephew, and as an uncle, I must be on duty.
It only took a few days of hard work, and all the items that Shaofu couldn't get through it were all sent to Shaofu's warehouse. The mouths of everyone in Shaofu were wide open.
Lao Li leaned on the recliner and watched all this lightly, thinking leisurely in his heart: Uncle Guo is still powerful enough, otherwise there will be no place for our old face.
There is no problem in the preparation of items.
The person who coordinated the wedding ceremony and steps of the crown prince was the great Honglu Tian Toyoda-sama of the current dynasty.
One of Da Honglu's responsibilities is to be responsible for the great ceremony, and the prince's wedding is of course a great etiquette for the entire Han world. Tian Feng was extremely serious, so Liu Yu appointed him as the person in charge of the wedding.
As one of the great Confucians of the time, Tian Feng has indeed perfected these etiquettes.
When Nacai was collecting, Tian Feng arranged a large team of people and prepared a large number of gifts to go to Ma Teng's home to propose. Originally, there was a proposal before the proposal. It's just that Liu Xuan and Ma Yunlu have long had a marriage contract, and this link can be ignored.
The prince's wedding, the person who proposes the marriage is naturally to represent the face of the royal family, and the Liu family's Zongzheng, the famous Han family relatives, Confucians, and generals are all complete. The appearance must be upright, and every move must be polite, and rude people like Dian Wei, Lu Bu, and Zhang Fei will not be able to enter this team at all.
There are more gifts, everything has to come in pairs, not to mention gold, silver and jewelry. The most important thing in it is a bunch of geese. And still have to live.
Why use geese? The goose is a migratory bird, taking the symbol of yin and yang, and later developing a new idea, saying that the goose loses its mate, and will no longer be a pair for life, and takes its loyalty.
Other gifts can be less, but in time, this wild goose is indispensable.
Ma Teng naturally smiled, he was waiting for such a day. Ma Teng immediately wrote Ma Yunlu's birth date and name on a splendid silk cloth and brought it back by the people who came to propose marriage. This is the completion of the second link, the name is asked.
In fact, it will take a while for this question to be asked. However, Tian Feng could only try to maintain the integrity of etiquette.
Tian Feng still felt that time was a little tight, so he just did a good job in one link, and he was going to do the next link immediately.
Then the dowry gift passed.
That's the big deal. Even the people of Luoyang are looking forward to seeing how many dowries the royal family will give.
On the day of the dowry gift, the entire Luoyang can be said to be empty. All the people stood on both sides of the road between the palace and Ma Teng's house, waiting for the grand occasion. There are very few princes in the Han Dynasty, and they usually have concubines before they become princes. If this opportunity is missed, the people will hate them to death. Moreover, the royal family is the most noble and wealthy in the world, and how much this dowry has become what the people want to see the most.
As soon as the auspicious time arrived, the gates of the palace were opened, and it was Cao Cao's son Cao Zhang, who was responsible for going to the Ma Teng Mansion to give the dowry.
After Cao Zhang arrived in Luoyang, he joined the Prince's East Palace and became Liu Xuan's attendant. Cao Zhang thought that Liu Yu was so domineering, so Liu Xuan must be similar. But the facts surprised Cao Zhang, Liu Xuan's personality is very easy-going, and there is not much coercion from superiors. Cao Zhang didn't need much to get along with Liu Xuan and them.
There are other attendants in Liu Xuan's East Palace, for example, Ma Jian is one of them.
What Cao Zhang didn't know was that he had been subdued by Liu Xuan invisibly, and he was still very well-behaved. This is also a means for Liu Xuan to subdue his subordinates.
This dowry gift was finally handed over to Cao Zhang.
Cao Zhang rode a war horse and walked in the front, to be honest, he was very shocked by the dowry given by the royal family. Not only is there many, but also rich in variety, Cao Zhang himself can be regarded as having seen the wealth of the royal family.
The bridal procession strode towards Ma Teng's mansion.
The eyes of the people on both sides of the road widened as they noticed that the procession of dowry gifts had not been broken for a long time since they had come out of the palace.
"Oh my God! What a dowry this is! ”
"Such a long team, such a dowry, worthy of heaven!"
The people were naturally shocked, and it took them almost half of their lives to get a dowry.
Ma Teng's family is very busy, his mansion is so big, so the dowry gift is sent over, there must be a place to put it.
Ma Chao looked at so many dowries, and his eyes showed a gleam. Ma Chao, who was originally patriarchal, found out for the first time that giving birth to a daughter was a huge good thing. Ma Chao calculated that he has several daughters, and it seems that he will not be able to receive this dowry in the future.
So much so that in the future, Ma Chao was very good to his daughter, and changed his original preference for sons. Everyone in the Ma family was puzzled.
Ma Chao may have forgotten that the dowry is much, but the dowry cannot be less. Ma Teng has been preparing for Ma Yunlu's dowry for many years, and now it can finally come in handy.
In any case, the entire Luoyang, and even the entire Han world, know that Ma Teng's family is now showing their faces.
Liu Yu felt that Liu Xuan was the crown prince, and now he was married to a wife, of course he couldn't be stingy. If you are stingy as an emperor, then how can others live?
After the dowry is accepted, just wait for the arrival of the auspicious day of the zodiac, and wait for the wedding.
Tian Feng, who had been busy for a while, breathed a sigh of relief, the work of welcoming relatives had enough time to prepare, and it was not as hurried as before.
The rest is the preparation of the palace.
The prince's east palace has been hung with red colors, and Liu Xuan is ready for the groom, both physically and psychologically.
Liu Hua, the demon king of the mixed world, jumped up and down on the prince's east palace, blindly commanding everywhere, and was in a hurry to arrange the eunuchs and palace maids. In desperation, Liu Xuan used his majesty as an elder brother to directly blast Liu Hua out.
Liu Yu sent all the invitations out, and the Chinese martial arts were all shared. It's just that even some of the more famous Confucians have been invited, and it's up to them to see if they come or not. Give them a hundred guts, and they will not fail to come.
When his son got married, Liu Yu was like a parent in later generations, striving for perfection. If there are too many state affairs, Liu Yu wants to be the leader of the marriage and give his son a perfect wedding.
On the sixth day of the first month, it is a good day, and it is appropriate to get married.
Liu Xuan, dressed in a specially made prince's costume, rode on a big horse with no miscellaneous hair on his body, and headed towards Ma Teng's mansion. The guard of honor around him is second only to the Son of Heaven, slightly higher than the Prince's specifications. All the guards in the Prince's East Palace were by Liu Xuan's side, showing the world that they were Liu Xuan's henchmen.
Today is the day when Liu Xuan marries Ma Yunlu, and the entire palace has been busy for so long, just for such a day.
This day is also a day of empty alleys. Although Liu Xuan often walks around Luoyang in micro-clothes, the people rarely see Liu Xuan's true face. And now Liu Xuan is completely exposed in front of the people and admired by the people.
Liu Xuan, who had been carefully dressed, appeared in front of the people, and the people were a sensation.
"Wow! The prince is so handsome! A middle-aged woman said nymphomaniacly.
An old man held his beard and said, "When Your Majesty was young today, the old man saw that the prince was too much like His Majesty back then. ”
"Really?" The middle-aged woman asked.
"Of course, the old man can see His Majesty back then I don't know how many times." The old man affirmed.
The middle-aged woman sighed and said, "It's a pity, why didn't the old lady meet Your Majesty back then?" Otherwise, such a handsome prince would be our son. ”
These words aroused the sideways glances of others, it is really a toad who wants to eat swan meat, how can such a rouge vulgar powder be worthy of Your Majesty.
The people are all talking, and the topic is all about Liu Xuan.
Liu Xuan has long been accustomed to being watched, so he has no adverse reactions and maintains a charming smile.
Suddenly, a young woman began to cry.
The middle-aged woman who was sighing just now hurriedly came over and said, "Girl, what's wrong with you?" ”
The young woman cried, "It turns out that he is the prince." Once upon a time, I met him a few times. I'm so stupid! ”
As soon as they heard this, everyone sighed, and it was indeed very stupid. There is fate to meet the prince, and I didn't grasp the opportunity well, what's the use of crying now. If you had worked hard at that time, it would have flown up the branches and become a phoenix, a 100% phoenix. Although I don't know the true identity of the prince, the prince is handsome and a good husband. She was to blame for missing the opportunity.
It's not just this young woman. There were also many women who recognized Liu Xuan and cried on the spot. Some of them are crying very sadly.
When Liu Xuan saw such a woman crying, he was stunned, today is his good day, what is it to have so many women crying.
"Youchang, why do you say that so many women cry when they see His Highness." Cao Zhang's relationship with Ma Jian during this time was good.
Ma Jian chuckled and said: "Your Highness sometimes goes out of the palace in micro-suits, and often observes the people's feelings in Luoyang. It is estimated that these women have met His Royal Highness, and they recognize the prince at this time. Seeing the prince's wedding today, I must be inexplicably sad in my heart. ”
Cao Zhang felt sorry for these crying women, and thought suspiciously: The prince is not just marrying one. Now that you know the true face of the prince, the next time you see it, won't you just try to be a small one?
Women like Cao Zhang's strong psychological ideas really have them, and many strong young women have already remembered Liu Xuan's appearance, and some women from families have even ordered someone to draw Liu Xuan's appearance, waiting for the opportunity to have an unexpected encounter with Liu Xuan in the future to create a beautiful one.
Well, there will be a prince in every woman's heart. What's more, Liu Xuan is still the crown prince, and the attraction is even stronger.
Liu Xuan didn't feel anything himself.
Slowly, the greeting procession has arrived at Ma Teng's mansion.
As the future uncle of the country, Ma Chao was already waiting at the gate with a smile. At the beginning, Ma Chao and Ma Dai and the younger generation of the Ma family all felt that Liu Xuan wanted to marry his own sister-in-law, and he had to show some real skills no matter what. So Ma Chao and the others set up several checkpoints for Liu Xuan to break through. When Ma Teng found out, he immediately scolded Ma Chao and them.
If someone else marries Ma Yunlu, just make a fuss. Liu Xuan is the crown prince, today's prince, this kind of identity is not something they can mess around. To put it more seriously, it is bullying the royal family. The problem is as serious as it gets. Ma Teng felt that his neck was cold.
Don't look at Ma Teng's lack of weight in the court, but in the Ma family, even Ma Chao didn't dare to say a word out loud to Ma Teng.
All the nonsense has been removed, and Ma Chao feels a little pity in his heart.
In fact, it is exactly as Marten said. The prince's wedding will be recorded in the history books. If something goes wrong, Ma Teng's family will be stinking for 10,000 years. And Ma Yunlu doesn't know if he can secure the position of the crown princess in the future.
Liu Xuan married Ma Yunlu very smoothly.
Ma Yunlu is a strange woman, and others are sad when they get married, and they don't know when they can go home to visit in the future. She's good, she's smiling all day, and she doesn't see any sadness at all.
Ma Teng himself lamented that the woman was not staying.
