Chapter 921 920 [Wedding Day]

The seventh year of Kaiping, the twenty-sixth day of the first lunar month.

The almanac says, peach blossoms begin.

Spring has returned to the earth, and everything is flourishing and full of vitality.

Kyoto seems to be waking up from a deep sleep, and the verdant green that can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys brings refreshing vitality.

For the people of Kyoto who always like to watch the excitement, a happy event has become the focus of everyone's attention today, that is, the 19-year-old Zhongshan Hou Pei Yue is about to get married.

What makes the world talk about it is that Pei Yue will marry two newcomers at the same time as a first-class prince. One of them is You Junji, the only daughter of Guliang, the Hou Guliang of Guangping. The other is said to be a martial arts genius with amazing talent.

genius girl.

This is a rare spectacle, and everyone is curious about how Pei Yue will carry out the ceremony and what kind of grand ceremony he will prepare for the two newlyweds. It is said that all the street restaurants in Yongrenfang have been booked in advance.

In particular, the facades near Qingfeng Street that are suitable for viewing have been sold at sky-high prices.

Naturally, ordinary people can only wait in the streets and alleys to watch the excitement. Those who can grab a street seat in a warm restaurant are all dignitaries. These people are not unexperienced. They want to see this city's attention.

What kind of heights will the wedding reach?

As we all know, Pei Yue had an unpleasant quarrel with the palace after the Battle of the Southern Territory. Although in the end he was saved from the danger of seizing power and was not forcibly promoted to the title of Duke by some people, this time he relied on Yigu

Wu Xun, headed by Liang, and the noble civil servants of the Qing Dynasty, headed by Luo Ting, instead of Emperor Kaiping, tried their best to defend it as before.

In other words, Pei Yue indeed had unimaginable strength in the court, but the dignitaries were more concerned about whether his holy family was still as stable and profound as before.

This is related to the situation of the Liang Dynasty seven years after Kaiping, and will also determine many people's subsequent attitude towards Pei Yue.

Their purpose of watching the ceremony at close range today was to see how Emperor Kaiping would treat his most valued young minister.

When ministers like this get married, it is common practice in the palace to give out rewards. Based on how much the emperor values ​​his ministers, the rewards are also divided into different grades. Just seeing that the wedding ceremony is about to take place, the palace still has not given any indication.

It will inevitably make the people below have wild imaginations.

Beicheng, in the palace of Prince Qi.

After listening to the report from the steward, the second prince Liu Yun sneered: "Pei Yue thought he could manipulate people's hearts, but he didn't think about what my father hated most when his ministers formed cliques to gain power. If he retreats bravely, my father will think of him because of his hard work and merits."

Maybe we can give him a proper ending, but I'm afraid it will be difficult now."

Liu Fei, the king of Weinan County, quickly echoed: "This person is so domineering and arrogant that he will lead to his own death sooner or later."

Liu Yun snorted, looked at him with a slightly suspicious look and said, "What exactly did you say in the Zhongshan Marquis Mansion? Although Pei Yue is arrogant, he is not the kind of fool who is blindly arrogant."

Liu Fei couldn't help but exclaimed: "Your Highness, did Yudi ever say anything strange? According to His Highness's instructions, Yudi approached Pei Yue to discuss the purchase of shares, but he naturally refused to agree. Yudi kindly gave him a few words to let him know what he was doing.

In this situation, I can only protect myself by relying on His Highness, but not only does he not appreciate it, he also openly humiliates me. If I were not afraid of affecting the overall situation of His Highness, I would definitely——"

Liu Yun waved his hand and said: "Forget it, now is not the time to settle accounts with him. Let him be proud for the time being. Judging from the current attitude of the father, his authority will be taken away sooner or later. It will not be too late to deal with him by then."

Liu Fei nodded in agreement, and then asked in confusion: "Since Your Majesty has no intention of rewarding Pei Yue at all, why is he still wandering around to make excuses for King Lu during this period?"

Liu Yun sarcastically said: "Because he is afraid."

"Fear?"

"He knew that showing off his power at the Shuo Wang Dynasty would arouse the jealousy of his father, so he desperately wanted to find some compensation. But at this time, he didn't even think about helping me, and only wanted to flatter the boss.

What a stupid person."

Liu Fei couldn't help lowering his head and eyebrows when he heard such heart-wrenching remarks, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Such comments were common in the Qi Prince's Mansion, but for the Zhongshan Marquis Mansion, they did not seem to have any impact.

The servants only slept for about two hours, and they began to decorate the palace in the middle of the night. The stewards in the front yard and the wives in the back house were even more busy.

At dawn, a carriage entered the back house of the Hou Mansion from the side door, and Pei Ning, wearing a bright red feather gauze, appeared in front of everyone.

Although the relationship between Pei Yue and the Pei family of Dingguo Mansion has long been in name only, and he has no intention of inviting Pei Rong and others to trouble him on this special day, there is no doubt about the importance of Pei Ning. This eldest sister almost represents him in

The only blood relative in this world.

The servants in the mansion were in awe of this young lady. Under the arrangements of her and Lin Shuyue, everything in the mansion was in order.

At three o'clock in the morning, the team to welcome the bride was ready.

According to the customs of Daliang, the final wedding ceremony of the Three Books and Six Rites does not require the groom's personal participation. He only needs to send a wedding team there and wait in the mansion.

Pei Yue was unwilling to follow ancient etiquette, but fortunately with his current position of power, some pedantic literati would not jump out to point fingers.

Before setting off, Pei Yue, dressed in bright red festive clothes, smiled and asked, "Are you all ready?"

The leader of the soldiers, Feng Yi, bowed and said: "Please rest assured, young master, I guarantee that nothing will go wrong."

As the music sounded, the wedding procession left the Zhongshan Marquis Mansion and meandered towards Xingye Square, attracting countless people from Kyoto to watch.

But seeing Pei Yue sitting on a tall horse, with a gentle smile on his handsome face, the wives and little girls cheered endlessly. Compared with the rigid and upright former Wei Dynasty, the atmosphere in Daliang was much more open, and women would not

If you don't leave the front door and don't take the second door, otherwise the eldest princess of Qiyang would not be able to enter the East Mansion to participate in politics.

Everyone loves young heroes, not to mention Pei Yue's high position and handsome appearance. If his eyes could melt people, I'm afraid he would have disappeared into the blazing eyes around him.

The young women on the side of the road looked at the two sedans in the middle of the wedding procession, and couldn't help but secretly sighed that this Lord Pei was really stingy. If he could prepare dozens or hundreds of sedans, maybe they would have a chance to sit in one...

Fortunately, Pei Yue doesn't have the ability to read minds, otherwise his legs would definitely become weak.

The wedding team threw festive candies along the way, entered Xingye Square and arrived at Guangping Marquis Mansion in an extremely festive and lively atmosphere.

Looking at the three young generals who had greeted them on the front steps of the house early, Pei Yue couldn't help but smile with emotion.

Except for Gu Jie, who was transferred to the guard of Hanyang City on the south bank of Tiancang River, Gu Zhen's three elder brothers, Gu Cang, Gu Mang and Gu Fan Jin were all here.

Pei Yue jumped off his horse, walked quickly to the steps, saluted politely and said, "Pei Yue has met three brothers."

Although national rites are greater than family rites, at such a special moment as today, he certainly would not act like a first-class prince.

As a representative, Gu Cang stepped forward, took Pei Yue's arm, and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, please forgive me."

Pei Yue didn't have much dealings with this second brother Gu, but he also knew that he had a calm temperament and was known as a general.

Sure enough, after the two sides exchanged greetings, Gu Cang said gently and carefully: "Fourth brother, you accompany your brother-in-law to the house to meet your parents, and my third brother and I will settle here."

Stepping slowly into Guangping Mansion, Pei Yue couldn't help but feel as if he was in another world when looking at the familiar scenes in front of him.

Gu Fan seemed to feel something in his heart, and said softly: "Do you still remember the first time you came to my house? How old were we at that time? In a blink of an eye, you are already the first-class prince of Jian in the emperor's heart, and you will become mine.

Brother-in-law, you can see how wonderful the encounters in life are."

Pei Yue raised his hand and patted his shoulder, smiling and saying, "This is called kissing plus kissing."

Gu Fan smiled, glanced around, and then said solemnly: "I heard that there has been a lot of trouble recently? Don't worry, I won't leave after I come back this time. If anyone dares to bully my brother-in-law in the future, I will come to find him personally.

Talk to him."

A warmth surged in Pei Yue's heart, and he chuckled: "I remember what Fourth Brother said. If you forget it in the future, I will definitely complain to Sister Zhen'er."

Gu Fan put his arms around his shoulders and said, "Remember, I said when we were at Green Willow Manor that I will protect you for the rest of my life."

When the guests and servants in the mansion saw this rare harmonious scene, they couldn't help showing friendly and bright smiles.

The two came to the main room of the back house and looked at Gu Liang and Zhao who were full of joy and a bit sad. Pei Yue performed the worship ceremony meticulously.

After he stood up, Gu Liangping stepped back, looked at Pei Yue's slightly excited face, smiled kindly and said, "Your self-restraint skills are better than I thought. It's not easy."

Pei Yue was stunned for a moment.
