A beautiful daughter came to the Xiangfu
Chapter 50: Prince An's Wedding
On the wedding day, the Lin Mansion was decorated with red inside and out, big red lanterns were hung high, happy characters were posted everywhere, red carpets were laid out on the street, and the whole street was filled with joy.
The flowers on the trees of the Lin Mansion had just bloomed, and the entire garden looked like a fairyland in a painting. The magpies on the branches kept chirping early in the morning.
Lin Qingyang got up early in the morning to burn incense and take a bath. While no one was around, he quickly ate a few bites of food, after all, he could barely eat anything today.
Usually, the elders in the family are responsible for combing one's hair, but Lin Qingyang hired a professional hairdresser, firstly to save trouble, and secondly because she did not want to trouble Princess Qi or her aunt.
The bride's headdress is also very particular. From today on, she has bid farewell to her identity as a girl. The hairdresser slowly combed Lin Qingyang's long hair like a waterfall, and then slowly divided the long hair into strands and tied it up into a bridal style.
After putting the hair up, they began to put various hair accessories on their heads. The gold and silver hair accessories on the head symbolize wealth and good fortune.
Lin Qingyang looked at her hair and felt that her head suddenly became several pounds heavier. She really didn't know if her neck could support this head for a whole day.
The color of today's rouge and powder is also particularly strong. Lin Qingyang has never worn such heavy makeup before.
"Isn't this a little too red?" Lin Qingyang asked worriedly.
"It should be a little red, so that I won't look dull when I put on my wedding dress later. Weddings are all like this, full of joy and prosperity."
After putting on makeup, several people helped Lin Qingyang put on the bright red wedding dress. Lin Qingyang turned around gently and smiled. The bridesmaids and makeup artists around her all exclaimed: "Wow, this is the most beautiful bride I have ever seen."
"Our girl is so beautiful!" Zisu and Juer couldn't help but praise her.
After all, clothes make the man. Lin Qingyang, who is already very outstanding, now has put on careful makeup. No one can dislike her.
"When the groom sees our girl, he will be so confused that he won't know east from west." Everyone joked.
"Oh, no wonder my adopted daughter has been called the most beautiful woman in the capital since she came to Beijing. Not to mention the men, even an old woman likes her. Prince An is so lucky to marry a fairy like you."
"Yes, our bride is even more beautiful after putting on makeup!"
Princess Qi and everyone else couldn't help but marvel at Lin Qingyang's beauty after she put on makeup.
Lin Qingyang already had an extraordinary temperament, and now she was wearing a bright red wedding dress, which reflected her divine nobility. No one looked better than the peony on her clothes.
This is the real "national beauty and natural fragrance".
"The fairies in the sky are here, and when they see our little Princess An, they feel ashamed and have to avoid her."
A group of women, it was a joke, but also sincere.
Lin Qingyang felt embarrassed, but the rouge on her face hid her red face. She wanted to lower her head, but her head felt a little heavy.
"Go and carry the dowry to the front hall and place it there. The groom will need to see the dowry when he comes to pick up the bride." Princess Qi ordered the servants to carry the packed dowry.
Looking at the dowry is also a part of the wedding. It is not only seen at the bride's house, but also displayed in the yard at the groom's house for people to see. If the dowry is large, the in-laws will pay more attention to it, and it also shows that the bride's family is powerful. Fortunately, Lin Qingyang has no parents-in-law, and Liang Jingsui and himself have both lost their parents.
However, Lin Qingyang's marriage was arranged by the Emperor, with the help of Princess Qi. Her dowry was one of the best among the many noble ladies in the capital. After all, there are different standards for marrying people of different identities, and except for businessmen, others cannot break the rules.
The dowry was placed outside, and Lin Qingyang followed the matchmaker's arrangements in everything. The time for picking up the bride was approaching, and the sound of firecrackers rang out outside, making the place lively. No need to guess, one knew that it was Prince An who came to pick up the bride.
Everyone told Lin Qingyang to cover her face with a wedding fan.
When Little Prince An came in, Lin Qingyang couldn't see his appearance clearly, but she thought he should be as vigorous and energetic as usual.
After all, Prince Xiao An's face was considered to be the best among all the princes in the palace, but he looked cynical, which made others dislike him. Instead, the prince, who was not as good-looking as him, was sought after for his "wisdom".
"Miss, the bridesmaid will come to urge you to get dressed soon. Remember to do it three times before agreeing." The nanny next to her reminded again and again.
Lin Qingyang nodded.
I was thinking: A wedding that is already complicated and requires so many procedures, it is really troublesome!
Lin Qingyang sat in his seat, not daring to move. The head was really heavy, and he was afraid that it would crush his neck.
She no longer cared about what was happening outside. All her attention was now focused on the following procedures. As long as it was not her turn, she would silently recite the procedures in her mind.
She told herself countless times, "Don't make any mistakes!"
Lin Qingyang followed the bridesmaid in a daze. When the groom came, she felt like she was going to get numb from sitting. She almost made a mistake when she was urging him to put on his makeup. The groom was by her side during the rest of the process. Xiao An Wang said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Don't be nervous. Don't be afraid of making mistakes. I'll remind you."
Lin Qingyang felt much more awake and relaxed. She nodded in response, but she forgot the heavy weight on her head, and the nodding action took a lot of effort.
Little King An couldn't help laughing at his expression, "Don't move, I know you heard it."
Lin Qingyang felt helpless.
The following process goes smoothly. During the tea-serving session, the newlyweds kneel down and serve tea to their elders to repay their kindness in raising them.
Although Lin Qingyang's parents are gone, there are still elders in the Lin family.
The most senior person in the Lin residence was Prime Minister Lin. The two of them served tea to him first, and then to the Grand Tutor and his wife. Because Prince Xiao An's parents were not at home, Prince Qi and his wife were arranged by the emperor to drink tea for him at his in-laws' house.
At Prince Xiaoan's wedding, Prince Qi and his wife had to play the roles of the bride's godfather and godmother, as well as the groom's temporary parents, but they both enjoyed it.
After the ceremony at the bride's house was over, it was time to get on the bridal sedan. Fortunately, the two families lived not far from each other, but there were many rules when getting married. You couldn't take the same route when coming and when leaving. If you walked along the east side of the city when coming, you had to walk along the west side when leaving, so the wedding procession went around half of the city.
Fortunately, a detour was made, otherwise the first part of the dowry would have entered Prince An’s Mansion, and the rest would not have left Lin’s Mansion.
People in the capital also love to come and watch the fun.
"Whose daughter is getting married? The dowry is so huge!"
"She is the granddaughter of Prime Minister Lin. It seems that she is the newly adopted daughter of Princess Qi. The emperor has granted her marriage."
"The wedding of the royal palace is naturally not something we common people can imagine. Look at how long the procession is."
"Bride, bride." The children were running and chasing behind the procession. It was not a happy event at all, but the children were happier than the wedding parties.
......
Lin Qingyang felt like she had been in the sedan chair for a very long time. The sedan chair was shaking up and down, and she felt like a ball going up and down in the air.
I never felt that there were so many places in the capital before, so why did it take so long to ride in the sedan chair today?
Lin Qingyang had a lot of thoughts in her mind, but she didn’t know that these were also part of the wedding process.
The sedan finally stopped. Lin Qingyang secretly looked out from the curtain and found that they had indeed arrived at the main gate of Prince An's Mansion.
The bridesmaid next to her saw Lin Qingyang's little action and hurried over to stop her, fearing that she would make a fool of herself.
Lin Qingyang sat inside waiting. The firecrackers outside rang for a long time, and Lin Qingyang felt like his ears were damaged.
"Why won't you let me get out of the sedan?" Lin Qingyang was getting anxious.
"The bride is getting off the sedan!"
Finally, Lin Qingyang heard that the process outside had reached his stage.
