In the garden, Shen Wan, accompanied by Yunmo Yunrui, rested in the pavilion for a long time. After she had rested enough, she went out from the pavilion and watched the ladies playing a blindfolded game of catch. Shen Wan was pregnant, so she couldn't No one dared to take her along even if she dared to play.
All the ladies were having fun one by one, and their silver bell-like laughter spread far away. At this moment, a little maid came quickly, walked up to Shen Wei and said, "Fourth girl, the sedan chair will be here in a quarter of an hour." , you can go to the front yard."
When everyone arrived in the front yard, the crackling firecrackers exploded, the gongs and drums were noisy, and it was so lively.
Shen Du was riding on horseback, with big red silk flowers tied on his chest, his face was like a crown jade, and he looked majestic.
The sedan chair slowly stopped, and Shen Du jumped off the horse. Amid a crowd of people cheering, he took the bow and shot three arrows at the sedan chair.
After throwing the bow to the young man, Shen Du walked towards the sedan, lifted the curtain and asked Princess Huai'an to get out of the sedan.
Shen Du only raised the curtain of the sedan chair and did not reach out to lead Princess Huai'an out of the sedan chair. Princess Huai'an came out of the sedan chair by herself. Then the maid helped her to walk to Shen Du, took the bright red silk satin handed over by Xi Niang, and watched. The people made way, and Shen Du and Princess Huai'an stepped up the steps and entered the mansion.
Across the brazier.
Saddle up.
The etiquette of getting married is pretty much the same, nothing special.
Entering the main hall, the two of them worshiped——
A worship of heaven and earth.
Two worship the high hall.
Three couples bowed to each other.
"The ceremony is completed and sent to the bridal chamber——"
Listening to the MC's shouts, Shen Wan felt extremely relaxed and happy.
Shen Du and Princess Huai'an were sent to their new house by Xiniang. Shen Jing, the fourth master and the fourth wife invited everyone to sit down.
Today, there is a wedding banquet held in the Marquis Mansion, and almost all the civil and military officials are here. Even the eldest princess Huyang's mansion, the eldest princess Huyang is ill, and the eldest son-in-law has just lost a son, so he sent someone to send a congratulatory gift.
The Marquis of Pingyang held a large number of troops and won the emperor's trust. Two princesses were born from one marquis' mansion, and one was the wife of the future prince. Shen Du married Princess Huai'an of Prince An's palace. The two were still married by the emperor, even if they were not given to the Marquis of Pingyang. If you want to save face for both the Mansion and Prince An’s Mansion, you have to give face to the Emperor as well.
More than a hundred tables were prepared for the wedding banquet in the Marquis Mansion, and almost all of them were occupied. It was so lively that it was so lively that it was difficult to hear people clearly even if they spoke softly when they were face to face.
Shen Wan, Shen Ying, Shen Wei, Princess Danyang and other ladies were at the table. Everyone was chatting and laughing while eating.
Halfway through the meal, the little maid Dong'er came over and whispered to Shen Wan, "Princess, the prince drank himself to death."
Shen Wei was sitting next to Shen Wan. She heard what Dong'er said in a low voice and said in a low voice, "Why did you vomit after drinking? My mother asked the servant to prepare water for my elder brother."
Dong'er said, "The fourth wife prepared cold boiled water for the prince, but the prince asked the servant to replace it with wine."
After a pause, Dong'er said again, "The prince wants to stop drinking from the prince, but the prince won't let him."
Shen Wan frowned.
What happened to the eldest brother? The fourth aunt was afraid that he would get drunk on his wedding day, so she changed the wine to water, but the eldest brother insisted on changing the wine back. She would rather drink herself until she vomited. Did the eldest brother want to be drunk and unconscious in his bridal chamber? ?
Shen Wei had told Shen Wan before that Shen Du had often drunk himself recently, and she suspected that Shen Du did not want to marry the princess of Huai'an. Shen Wan had never thought so, but now, she also had this suspicion.
The eldest brother drank himself to death and was clearly not in a hurry to consummate the marriage. He even... seemed to be using drunkenness to avoid consummating the marriage.
Shen Wan's good mood was cast into a shadow.
She told Dong'er, "Go and see Princess Huai'an."
After Dong'er left, Shen Wan was distracted while eating vegetables. She thought about the day when the imperial edict was given to get married. Her eldest brother didn't look very happy when he received the edict. Later, Xie Jingyan called his eldest brother aside to talk. On the same day, Xie Jingyan entered the palace and was beaten with a paperweight by the emperor. Hurt, she asked Xie Jingyan how on earth he annoyed the emperor, but Xie Jingyan was vague. She still doesn't know why he was beaten that day.
Xie Jingyan forged a gold medal for immunity from death and intercepted the imperial edict. The emperor was so angry that he didn't do anything to him...
The more she thought about Shen Wan, the more uneasy she felt. She couldn't wait to ask Xie Jingyan, but at the moment she could only sit there patiently and wait for the wedding banquet to end.
In the first half of the wedding banquet, Shen Wan ate happily, but in the second half, the food was like a thorn in the back or a lump in the throat.
The wedding banquet lasted for more than an hour before the guests left one after another. After everyone was almost gone, Shen Wan went to find Xie Jingyan.
At that time, Xie Jingyan was helping to see off the guests. When he saw Shen Wan passing by, Xie Jingyan said, "Why didn't you stay a little longer? Are you tired?"
Shen Wan shook his head. Over there, Shen Jing escorted the right minister out of the house. He came over and said to Xie Jingyan, "It's getting late. You should send Wan'er back first."
The guests had almost left, and there was no need for so many people to see them off. Xie Jingyan and Shen Yuan saluted Shen Jing, then greeted Prince Yanping, Yun Qi and the others before leaving first.
Xie Jingyan helped Shen Wan get into the carriage, and then got in. After he sat down, he was about to hold Shen Wan and sit on his lap. Shen Wan said, "I have something to ask you."
Xie Jingyan stopped, looked at Shen Wan and said, "What's the matter?"
Shen Wan said, "Are you and my eldest brother hiding something from me?"
Xie Jingyan said, "Why do you ask that?"
Shen Wan said, "My eldest brother drank and vomited himself three times on his wedding day and refused to go back to his new house. I am his biological sister. How can I not realize that there is something wrong with my eldest brother?"
Xie Jingyan said nothing.
Shen Wan said anxiously, "Don't hide it from me!"
Xie Jingyan looked at Shen Wan and said, "Your elder brother didn't let me tell you."
Does this guy listen to her elder brother so much? !
Shen Wan said, "If you don't tell me, then I'll go back and ask my eldest brother now."
Shen Wan was impatient and directly ordered the boy, "Turn around and go back to Pingyang Hou Mansion."
Can Xie Jingyan let Shen Wan go back? He sighed, "It's useless even if you know."
It’s no use and she needs to know.
Shen Wan looked at Xie Jingyan with a knowing expression on his face.
Xie Jingyan didn't hide anything from Shen Wan anymore. He said, "Your eldest brother has someone in mind, but he is not the Princess of Huai'an."
Shen Wan, "...!!!"
"How is this possible?!" Shen Wan raised her voice in disbelief.
She looked at Xie Jingyan, "So that day when you entered the palace and was beaten by the emperor, did you want to ask the emperor to withdraw the imperial decree of marriage?"
Xie Jingyan nodded.
Shen Wan's face turned pale, "My eldest brother made a special trip to Huaizhou to meet Princess Huai'an. How could he not fall in love with Princess Huai'an?!"
Xie Jingyan said, "No one can say for sure about fate."
but!
In the previous life, the eldest brother fell in love with the Princess of Huai'an at first sight and would not marry her unless she was there. In this life, he made a special trip to Huaizhou and did not fall in love with the Princess of Huai'an. Is the difference between the two lives of the eldest brother so big?
It's okay if he doesn't like Princess Huai'an. Once they get married, they can slowly develop a relationship. However, the eldest brother left Beijing and fell in love with someone else. Shen Wan almost suffered a myocardial infarction.
Shen Wan was so angry that she couldn't speak. She was angry with herself and her eldest brother. Xie Jingyan said, "Your eldest brother had the opportunity to break off the engagement, but he refused to do so."
Shen Wan looked at him, "Why?"
Xie Jingyan said, "Your eldest brother is late in returning to Beijing. The girl he likes has been promised to someone else and will leave the court this month."
...No wonder her eldest brother would be distracted looking at other people's wedding sedans on the street.
No wonder her eldest brother is always drunk these days.
The more Shen Wan thought about it, the more depressed she became.
In the previous life, the eldest brother could not marry the princess of Huai'an, so he drank all his time to drown his sorrows.
In this life, the emperor gave him the princess of Huai'an, and he was depressed because he could not marry the girl he wanted.
Prince Yanping liked the same girl in both his lifetimes, and he couldn't hide from killing the son of the eldest prince consort of Huyang for the same girl. How come everything changed when he came to her eldest brother? !
