The earliest record of marriage in Japanese history was that in the Heian era, men went to a woman's residence for three nights, and if the woman accepted it, a marriage ceremony would be held.

However, when it comes to legends, it should be in mythological stories.

Legend has it that Izanaki and Izanami raised the jade pillar of heaven and agreed to walk in the opposite direction of the pillar. When they met, they got married.

Kondo's wedding also refers to this legend. The niche is hung with portraits of Izenaki and Izenami for worship.

Of course, I did not forget that the God of the Ming Dynasty, which is believed in by the martial arts family, was the mural of the God of the Ming Dynasty.

The bloated groom Kondo walked into the middle of the lobby with the bride following.

"This is Bai Wugui..."

The bride, Tomoko, who was wearing a white and rude beauty, made Tuya Sui San couldn't help but think of the lady of the Wu family she met yesterday.

"What is Bai Wugui?" Okita Soshi is already eighteen years old, but he is still like a child and knows nothing except Kendo.

Qin Ming pinched the bun face of Chongtian and said, "Bai Wugui is the wedding dress used by the Wu family women, symbolizing the purity of women. It was originally a "dead" outfit. Putting it in the wedding means that once you marry into the other person's family, you will not be able to come back alive."

He did a good job in preparation. After coming to Edo, he was constantly absorbing relevant knowledge. Only when he knew more than others would he be more likely to fool people.

"I see!"

Okina Toshiji likes to wear white clothes in the future, probably because he is influenced by today, and he fights to show that he always holds the awareness of death.

Qin Ming felt very sorry for the bride. Not only Bai Wugui, he was wearing a single dress under him, covered with multiple slings and Tang clothes, plus skirts and pants, and it was estimated that it was about 20 kilograms, which would last the entire wedding.

It was indeed a wedding that only the lady of the Wu family could afford. The ordinary woman probably fell down before the wedding was halfway through.

Participants were divided into the groom's side and the bride's side. First, they were parents, and then according to their closeness and alienation, the seven aunts and eight aunts were sitting in a row, and finally friends.

Qin Ming was ranked first among his friends, beside him are Kanekoro and Takeshi Banheita. If he had some blood relationship with Kondo, he would probably be ranked directly below his parents. In addition to being close and alienating, status and reputation are also important factors.

However, Qin Ming did not take the seat, and he also had to preside over the wedding ceremony.

That is, a ceremony to pray to the gods to avoid sins and stains, to eliminate mistakes that you have not made in daily life, and to hold a marriage ceremony after your mind and body are purified together.

Qin Ming only found it funny. He didn't even know what mistake he made, so he prayed for the forgiveness of his sins and cleansing his body. He really had the spirit of craftsmanship that said sorry in advance.

However, he did not express it. He followed the local customs. Anyway, the bride and groom bowed. Then he played the lyrics, holding the lyrics, swaying the left and right, which was a success in eliminating the sins.

Next is the blessing, the bride and groom report to the gods, prayers for eternal happiness, and everyone should be grateful and listen to the blessings.

Kondo and Tomoko recited the congratulations. Qin Ming listened carefully on the surface, but was actually looking at the portrait of the god behind the bride and groom.

As the guests became more and more involved, light spots gradually gathered on the portraits of Izhanami and Izhanaki on the niche.

Qin Ming's face changed. There are monsters in this world, so it is normal for gods to exist?

The boundary between Japanese gods and monsters is relatively blurred. For example, the most famous Tengu among monsters, the eight Tengus all live in the mountains, guarding the mountains, and are also known as the mountain god.

There are also some gods who were originally monsters from the beginning.

To put it simply, there are gods who are afraid of others in the gods, and there are monsters who are faithful or have contracts with shrines and worshipped to become gods.

"In this case, it's getting more and more complicated..."

Qin Ming continued to observe the movements of the murals. The bride and groom had already begun the cup swearing ceremony, that is, exchanges and exchanges to prove that the couple had a permanent contract, which is usually the "Three-Three-Nine Degree Cup" or the "Three Offering Ceremony".

Some of the light spots gathered on the murals were scattered on Kondo and Tomoko.

Qin Ming's eyes lit up.

Gods work?

So can we use gods to drive away ghosts and demons?

What should be the amulets in temples, shrines, Buddha statues, etc., do you have the most part of the work?

The next stage is the "Jade Chain Worship" ceremony.

Kondo took out his oath from his arms and read it aloud with the bride in front of the niche. The content was "The couple always united and encouraged each other to build a beautiful family together."

From Qin Ming's perspective, as Kondo recites the oath, the remaining light spots on the mural turn into something like chains, linking the bride and groom together.

At this time, a bunch of people broke in and interrupted the wedding.

"Where is Tufang Sui San?!"

"I've teased our lady and dare to run away?"

Tuoge in the crowd lowered his head and draped his hair. He made an appointment with the pretty lady of the Wu family yesterday to meet today, and he forgot about it after a night's sleep.

Mr. Kondo, who always looks kind on weekdays, turned to her face with a cold face: "This is the Dojo of the Trial Hall, no matter what, please go back."

Those servants refused to follow: "We know that Tufang is here, and it is related to the lady's reputation. If you hide it, it will be of no benefit to anyone."

The bride's parents were also dissatisfied: "Didn't you see that it's time for a wedding now, and you suddenly break in on this gratifying day. Don't you think it's inappropriate?"

The servants still had to argue with reason. Kei Kogoro, who was sitting quietly, suddenly spoke: "Let's stop here. There is no meaning to argue anymore, it will only ruin good days."

The servant looked at the cold-faced man and felt awe. He asked tentatively: "Who is your lord?"

Gui Xiaogoro's posture remained unchanged, and he spoke lightly: "Head of the Military Training House, the Chief Prosecutor of the Changzhou Vocational Division, Gui Xiaogoro."

The head of the military training center is equivalent to the kendo master, representing the status of the people. The Grand Priest of the Choshu vassal state is mainly in charge of the entry and exit of the Changshu vassal state in Edo, representing the status of the official family.

The Training Hall is one of the three major dojos, the Cheung Chau vassal is a majestic vassal in the southwest, and the Katsukoshi Kogoro is not an ordinary person.

Seeing this, the servants had to retreat first.

The wedding continued, but the Yu Chuan worship ceremony was not yet halfway through, and this group of people came in again.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Tu Fang. Tu Fang quickly lowered his head, and he couldn't remember which lady he had offended.

This group of people is not as simple as the previous servants. They are wearing swords on their waists and are all samurai: "After receiving information, there are traces of thieves who respect the king and expel the barbarians here. Please cooperate with our investigation."

Respecting the king and expelling the barbarians? Master Kondo looked surprised, but still turned to the front with a cold face: "This is the dojo of the Trial Hall. Today's wedding, please go back no matter what."

The warrior is not as easy to bully as the servants: "There are thieves here, so we must investigate them clearly!"

He pulled out his scabbard with a slash, and there were Ando family patterns on the scabbard.

Everyone felt a chill in their hearts. They all knew that the shogunate was searching for thieves who respected the king and expelled the barbarians recently. If they came to the throne or reform, they could deal with it.

But the Ando family of the Kishu clan belonged to the Kishu clan and was a member of the shogun.

Gui...Gui Xiaogoro!

The guests couldn't help but look for Kanekogoro in the crowd.

Not only did Kogoro have a high status, he also had to be valued by the Chagajuan lord Mori, and was almost adopted as a surname. Such an identity not only made the samurai servants leave in disappointment, but also could stop a few people from facing the Ando family's samurai.

But...

Where is Kogoro?
