Dahanjiao Queen

There was a lot of noise in the mourning hall, Liu Che was listening outside, angry and anxious, but Zhang Tang let him take advantage of the time to see the faces of the people clearly, he wanted to go in, but he couldn't.

"Old Zhang, do you think Sister Gillian really believes it?" Liu Che felt like a cat scratching in his heart, "She and the queen mother cried so sadly, I really..."

"The Empress is really heartbroken, but Lord Weng knows the news that Brother Nine is still there. Brother Nine, don't worry, stay safe and don't be impatient."

"That's it again, you..." Liu Che glanced at the mourning hall, but saw that it was surrounded by people, Princess Guantao's anxious voice was particularly piercing, "A-Jiao, A-Jiao, wake up, don't scare me! People, quickly find the imperial doctor, my Gillian has fainted!"

Accompanied by the shouts of Princess Guantao and the screaming cries of Queen Wang, the mourning hall was in chaos. Liu Che looked at Zhang Tang: "Old Zhang, when is the time you said?"

"When it's quiet inside, brother Jiu goes in, the timing is just right."

"Can……"

"I promised Lord Weng that Brother Nine would not be allowed to act impulsively. Brother Nine, you have endured it for so many days, so what if you endure it a little longer?"

Hearing Zhang Tang mention Chen Jiao, Liu Che sighed and stood up again: "Ajiao really told you that?"

"Lord Weng asked me to keep it for Ninth Brother, and now I return it to Zhao." Zhang Tang handed the brocade box containing the will to Liu Che, "Guo Sheren, is Ninth Brother's dragon robe ready?"

Guo Sheren patted his chest: "My old Guo is doing business, are you still worried?"

Zhang Tang glanced at Guo Sheren, didn't answer any more, and listened attentively to the commotion in the mourning hall.A-Jiao's words had already planted seeds of doubt in the hearts of the ministers. At this moment, the princes and ministers were discussing a lot, and A-Jiao had already been carried into the inner room to rest.

"Ninth Brother, it's time for us to show up!"

Seeing that King Liang and Dou Yifang were going to mourn for Liu Qifa, Zhang Tang and his party followed Prince Liu Che into the mourning hall.

"What are you Yulin soldiers doing here?" Liang Wang looked at the five people who broke in, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart. When the leader took off his helmet, he was shocked, "You..."

"Che'er—" Queen Wang cried and stepped forward to hug her son, "You...are you really my Che'er?"

King Liang and Dou Yifang looked at each other, and both of them saw the astonishment in each other's eyes. No one expected what happened today.Liang Wang winked at Dou Pengzu and asked him to find the Yulin Army.

Seeing the prince's arrival, the ministers who had originally sided with King Liang began to hesitate, and Dou Yifang decided to cut through the mess quickly: "I am also very pleased that the prince is safe. Cheer, you are tired from the journey, go back and rest!"

"The prince is safe, he should ascend the throne immediately!" Pingyang had already offended Dou Yifang before, so she was naturally not afraid of offending Dou Yifang again. At this time, she was the first to jump out, "What's more, according to what Gillian said, the prince Obviously it has never been abolished!"

"A-Jiao is so sad that she can't even remember things clearly." Dou Yifang said, "The imperial doctor is still feeling her pulse. She has a deep relationship with your father. , better than your own daughter. She has always been filial, and she sheds tears every day, and it is normal to have hallucinations."

"But..." Ping Yang was a little anxious, she was putting all her eggs in one basket.

If Liu Che becomes the emperor, she, the imperial sister, will naturally have a backing, so she doesn't have to worry about the Dou family. If Liu Che becomes the abolished prince, based on what she has done today, the Dou family will definitely find a reason to dispose of their two siblings. Therefore, She has no capital to lose.In contrast, it doesn't make much difference to her whether she offends Dou Shi or not.

"It's an important matter, how can you make unreasonable comments here?" Dou Yifang gave Ping Yang a hard look, "Why do you, a princess, get involved in the affairs of the court?"

In a word, a daughter's family in Pingyang was so blocked that they could not speak.

The daughter was defeated in the first round, and the queen had no choice but to show weakness: "I am the queen of the first emperor, the mother of the prince, am I qualified?"

Dou Yifang was thinking about how to answer so as to shut Wang Zhi's mouth, but Sima Tan, the Taishi Ling, took the first step: "I must do my part, and it must be the king."

"Back then, when Li Che'er was the crown prince, all the ministers were there most of the time. Just now, the queen mother also acquiesced that Che'er had never been abolished. So, wouldn't it be logical for him to ascend the throne?"

Seeing that several ministers nodded unconsciously, Dou Yifang was in a hurry: "In the Han Dynasty, there was a crown prince, there was an elder, there was a young, and there was a son. Now, it's time to establish a virtuous. The last emperor's edict is here. Doesn’t the black and white words not count? The late emperor’s bones are not cold yet!”

The last sentence is alluding to the fact that in order to make Liu Che the emperor, the Queen Wang made a commotion about who came to the throne regardless of the death of the first emperor.

"The will?" Liu Che was still thinking about how to come up with the will, but now Dou Yifang mentioned it, hitting his arms, "What is the will, can I have a look?"

The King of Liang and the Dou family had no doubts about him, so they handed Liu Che the fake edict they had prepared long ago, but unexpectedly he took a look at it and said with certainty: "This edict is fake!"

"how is this possible?"

"Taishiling, most of my father's imperial pens are kept in your Taishi mansion! If anyone doesn't believe me about this edict, just take my father's imperial pens and compare them one by one to distinguish the true from the false. !"

"No need!" Dou changed her words, "This was dictated by the first emperor, and written by the king of Liang."

"Really?" Liu Che sneered in his heart, "Since Uncle Liang Wang said it, then I can only believe it. But... Taishi Ling, I have a will here, and I would like you to identify the authenticity."

With that said, Liu Che handed over the imperial edict in his hand to Taishi Ling.

Sima Tan read out the edict in public and affirmed, "This is indeed the late emperor's handwriting."

The king of Liang jumped over the wall in a hurry, and wanted to order Dou Pengzu to secretly lead troops to seize power by force. Unexpectedly, at this time, the Imperial Forest Army had already been controlled by old general Li Guang.Even if King Liang had the power to return to heaven, there was nothing he could do.Before Emperor Jing's death, Empress Dowager Dou and the prince's grandson whispered for a long time. Chen Jiao looked at the expressions of the two from behind the curtain, and knew that the overall situation was settled. Now... King Liang has become the one who was sacrificed by Dou Yifang, but... …

not enough.

How is it enough?

Regardless of whether Dou Yifang's "Han Qing" just now was tentative or determined, Chen Jiao knew that if she wanted to gain power in the palace, she had to get rid of Dou Yifang first, and Dou Yifang was just a woman.The rule of this era is that women are destined to rely on men and their families.

King Liang...

Now is not the time to act, but she can plant a seed of doubting her mother in King Liang's heart.

Dou Yi's room...

If you can't deal with Liang Wang, you can deal with the Dou family. This is a good time!The new emperor ascended the throne, and his relatives became powerful, which no emperor could tolerate.With old and new grudges added together, she doesn't have to rush to stand out, the emperor is standing in front of him to block him!

**********

Chen Jiao looked at the mourning hall, and Dou Yifang took Liu Che's hand, announcing him as the new emperor, seeing him enthroned immediately, and heaved a sigh of relief. 20 years, she spent 20 years, and finally she is going to become a queen, 20 years... In the future, she will no longer be so forbearing.

Putting down the curtain, Chen Jiao felt a gaze on her, as if she had a heart. She raised her eyes and met Liu Fei's staring eyes. She was as affectionate as ever, but this time, she hardly dared to look at him, and hurriedly let go. Curtain, hid in the inner room.

**********

When Liu Che became the emperor, the first thing he did was to visit Chen Jiao, who had passed out and was resting in the inner room.

"A-Jiao, are you alright?"

"I'm fine." Because she met Liu Fei before, Chen Jiao no longer had the feeling of fulfilling her wish when she saw Liu Che enthroned, "I saw it all, Cheer, no, it's Your Majesty, congratulations on your enthronement."

Hearing the word "Your Majesty", Liu Che's originally happy expression suddenly became sullen: "A-Jiao, you will be the same from now on, can you call me Cheer?"

"...Okay." Chen Jiao smiled, "By the way, what do you plan to do with Dou Pengzu?"

"I promised the imperial grandmother that everything will be business as usual, and no one in the Dou family can be moved. Gillian, am I particularly useless?" Liu Che lowered his head, "The imperial grandmother still has to listen to the government behind the curtain, so I can only agree... Gillian , will you look down on me?"

"Fool!" Looking at Liu Che helplessly, Chen Jiao said, "Don't be in a hurry, you are the emperor, the master of the world, no matter how powerful the emperor's grandmother is, she has reached the age to take care of her life, and then meddles in the government affairs. Can't be the second Empress Lu?"

"Then... Gillian, what do you think I should do?"

"You are the emperor, Che'er. No matter what I say, I'm just giving you advice. You must be the one who makes the decision. But... I have a candidate, and I think he can help you."

"Who?"

"Dongfang Shuo."

At the mention of this name, Liu Che suddenly realized: "Yes, why didn't I think of it! I will send someone to find him right away."

"It's not looking for, it's asking." Chen Jiao corrected, "Let Li Ling go, that kid...you should always be thinking about Qiu Chan in your heart! Just in time, he can also propose marriage by the way."

"no!"

"Huh?" Chen Jiao was puzzled, "Why not?"

"I'm not married yet, how can Xiaolingzi be one step ahead of me? Gillian, which palace do you like, Weiyang Palace? Ganquan Palace? Or Jianzhang Palace? I'll let them inlaid your house with gold, and then , I can hide you in the golden house."

Seeing Liu Che's joyful expression, Chen Jiao pursed her lips, but still refused: "I don't want to live in a golden house, as for which palace it is... It is the usual practice of big men that the queen lives in the Jiaofang Palace, so I naturally There will be no exception."

"No!" Liu Che refused, "The Jiaofang Palace is too far away, or...they said that I have to live in Weiyang Palace in the future, so Gillian, you can live in Weiyang Palace, and I will find you a room that is not inferior to Jiaofang." Fangdian's palace, so that when I want to see you, I don't have to go to Changle Palace."

"It is customary for the empress to live in the Jiaofang Hall of Changle Palace. There is no reason to live in Weiyang Palace. Cheer, don't be self-willed, lest your mother and the emperor's grandmother will talk about you again."

With a soft "hum", Liu Che whispered, "It's as if you didn't say anything about me!"

"Ok?"

"It's nothing, Gillian, if you want to live in the Jiaofang Palace, then live in the Jiaofang Palace! I'm going to the emperor's grandmother now, do you want to go with me?"

Chen Jiao thought for a while, then shook her head: "No, I'll go... I'm afraid that the imperial grandmother will be wary of me in the future. She has gone through three dynasties and is our imperial grandmother, so we can't make too much trouble. But... If you see the imperial grandmother, if you have a chance, ask me, what does history... mean? I remember... before I fainted, I heard her say something about history in my ear, but I was already I was delirious, and I didn't understand what she meant. Che'er, if you see her, if you have a chance, please help me ask her. The emperor's grandmother... I'm afraid she's annoyed me and ruined her. I'm talking to you now. Going together will only add fuel to the fire."

"History? Well, Gillian, I went to see the imperial grandmother, and then I will come to you. Let me tell you, I am at my sister's house..."

"Go!" Chen Jiao used her index finger to stop Liu Che from chattering, "I have a surprise for you in a while. Go!"

"What surprise?"

"Don't tell you!"

"Sister Ajiao...you tell me, otherwise I'm in a hurry."

"You'll know when you come back, let's go!"

"……All right."

**********

When Liu Che saw the Empress Dowager Dou, she was with the King of Liang, Dou Ying, and Dou Pengzu. Seeing him enter the palace, everyone smiled: "Your Majesty."

"The guilty minister pays his respects to His Majesty."

The one who claimed to be a guilty minister was naturally the King of Liang.

Liu Che glanced at the atmosphere in the hall. After these days, he has grown up a lot, and now he can naturally understand the true face of the Dou family members under the fake smile mask.

You can pretend, can't I pretend?

Liu Che looked at Dou Ying with a smile: "Dou Ying, you are the princess' consort and the emperor's grandmother's nephew. Do I call you uncle or uncle?"

"Your Majesty, whatever you want, Your Majesty..." He said a few words, realized something was wrong, and quickly changed his words, "Your Majesty should call me by my name!"

"Are you in charge of the Imperial Forest Army?"

"If Your Majesty thinks that the minister is not capable enough, the minister is willing to let the virtuous." Dou Ying knew that he had already been included in the camp of the Dou family at this moment, and he could not say anything in front of the Empress Dowager.

"No, I'm the first to become a great treasure, and I need to rely on the uncles of the Dou family, as well as the uncles and elder brothers of the Liu family! By the way, uncle, what did General Li Gan do? Is he still in the prison? General Li Gan and Uncle Peng Zu are in charge of the Imperial Forest Army together!"

Dou Yifang already understood Liu Che's plan, but still pretended to be stupid: "Li Gan? I don't know, Dou Ying, do you know?"

He easily kicked the ball to Dou Ying.

"General Li Gan..." Dou Ying thought about his words, "Isn't he implicated because Li Ling didn't serve His Majesty well? I...can't tell."

"Since this is the case, then I will ask Zhang Tang to check. If there is nothing wrong, then let him return to his original post and take charge of the Imperial Forest Army with Uncle Peng Zu!"

"Here."

"Uncle Dou Ying, I want to invite you to be my prime minister."

"Prime Minister?"

Not only Dou Yifang was surprised, but also Dou Ying herself.

"Uncle is the pillar of the great man, and the second brother was also taught by you back then. It is the best choice to ask you to be the prime minister."

"This……"

"Uncle, don't refuse. I don't worry about anyone else being the prime minister except you." Liu Che insisted, "Uncle, Gillian also said that among the members of the Dou family, you are the most talented and learned."

Dou Ying still wanted to refuse, but Dou Yifang interrupted: "Dou Ying, since His Majesty has already said so, you should agree!"

"Here."

After Liu Che settled the affairs of the court, he continued: "By the way, Grandmother, Gillian asked me to ask you something. She just woke up, and the imperial doctor told her to rest more, so I didn't dare to let her come over, lest she Fall again."

"Oh?" There was something in Dou Yi's room, "You really feel sorry for Gillian."

"That's natural. Gillian thought that I was dead, so she was so sad. It was my fault that made her sad. Grandmother, Gillian said that she vaguely heard what you said about history before she fainted. This history... what is it? mean?"

"History?" Dou Yifang looked at Liu Che, saw that his expression did not seem to be pretending, thought for a while, and said, "She got it wrong. Gillian is really sad these days, and she is a little dazed. I How can you say anything about the history of Han Qing? Cheer, tell Gillian what I said. By the way, ask the imperial physician to show Gillian carefully. You have already ascended the throne, and it is time to get married. Wait, Ah Jiao is in good health, pick an auspicious day, and you will get married."

Hearing about marrying Chen Jiao, Liu Che hurriedly knelt down: "Thank you, Grandmother."

"Thank me for what? The marriage between the two of you has been settled long ago, and A-Jiao is not young anymore, you just treat her well."

"Grandson must treat Gillian well!"

**********

In the first month of the third year of the Yuan Dynasty, Emperor Jing died.Jiazi, the crown prince Liu Che is the emperor, and the empress dowager Dou is called the empress dowager, and the empress Wang is called the empress dowager. The request period for a pair of live geese is Yichou in March.

Yi Chou in March is suitable for marriage and accepting lottery.Make an alliance, consecrate, travel, pray, enter the population.

This day is the day when the emperor married the new queen.

The eight Fu Mu waited on Chen Jiao to wear the newly made queen's dress. The top and bottom were blue, with deep collar and wide sleeves. Chen Jiao, who was 20 years old at the time, was exquisite and slim, which fit the dress very well.

Combing her hair, Fu Mu licked the white jade grate with clear water, and gathered her black hair: "The Lord's hair is really beautiful."

Chen Jiao smiled.

As usual, a fake haircut should be used for the queen's wedding, and Fu Mu tied up the queen's hair bun for her, gave her the crown, added a dragon and phoenix pearl crown, and put a golden step on it, and the hairpin swayed like pearls and jade.

"Master Weng never pierced his ears?"

"I'm afraid of pain." Chen Jiao casually found an excuse.

"Is there any bride who doesn't wear a hairpin?" Fu Mu laughed and persuaded, "It won't hurt very much, it will be fine soon."

"I don't want it if I say no." Chen Jiao's voice was flat, but her words were full of persistence and a touch of majesty.

"Here."

Fum fell silent.

She had a vague feeling that Director Weng of Princess Guantao's house was said to be savage, but maybe...she was not what the world thought.

"The bridegroom is coming soon, so you should make up quickly." Guan Tao lifted the curtain and came in, frowning, "Forget it, Gillian doesn't want to, so if you don't want to, then don't. The empress is not, who would dare?" Nonsense?"

Everyone was silent, so they hurriedly packed them up, brushed off the fine hairs on the girl's face with a thin thread soaked in water, applied a thin layer of peach blossom powder, then smeared rouge, and finally used the black pen to draw the most graceful long eyebrows .

Chen Jiao, who was dressed up, turned around, and the long dress of Queen Cyan Piao was dragging to the floor. Her face was heavily made up, elegant and luxurious, and the radiance was so dazzling that people dare not look directly at it.

"Princess," Su Xin hurriedly came to report, "Master Zhang Tang and General Li Ling greeted her personally on behalf of His Majesty, and the empress and legal family have arrived at the Marquis' residence."

Guantao came back to his senses and raised his voice to order, "Hurry up, send Gillian to the ancestral temple."

As usual, it was Chen Wu who was supposed to inform the ancestors at the ancestral temple. Now that Chen Wu is away, Chen Ji, who will inherit the throne, will take his place.Standing on the ancestral temple with a high crown and a tall belt, he looked at his younger sister standing in front of him, filled with emotion in his heart, and warned in a deep voice: "Respect her. Don't disobey your orders at night!"

Chen Jiao said: "Respect."

Liu prostitute went forward, tied Chen Jiao's clothes, tied her scarf, and warned: "Mian Zhi respects her, staying up all night is not against the palace affairs!"

Then he bowed and said, "Thank you."

Yi Chou in March, the ritual behind the book on the lobby.Prime Minister Dou Ying held the emperor's book and read it: "The honor of the empress is equal to the emperor. She worships the heaven and the earth, only inherits the ancestral temple, and her mother comes to the world. Therefore, Xin Xingyin, Jiang Renmu Zhou, the second generation's grand, Gai There are internal virtues. The Changqiu palace, the central palace and the empty seat, the noble lady of the Tangyi, the beauty of the courtesan, the beauty of the mountains and the rivers, the majesty and the glory, the crown of virtue. The counselor of the group, people call it Yizai. The yarrow of divination The tortoise, the hexagram is the successor to Qian. There is a suggestion from the secretary that it should be called the Fu group, and the mother is a sign of the people. Today, the Taiwei will inherit the envoy to hold the festival and enshrine the ribbon, Zongzhengzu will be the deputy, and Lijiao will be the queen. Ritual ceremony, give it in a solemn and prudent manner, there will be no substitute for my life and eternal reward.”

Ting Wei Zhang Tang awarded the queen's seal, and the servant of Zhongchang waited on his knees to accept it, and passed it on to the female officer.The female officer in white held the red jade seal and presented it to the queen, knelt down and tied it on the leather belt around Chen Jiao's waist.Back off.So Empress Liusu knelt down three times and worshiped three times, saying, "The ministers and concubines are honored to accept the order, congratulations to the emperor for ten thousand years." Xie Enwen, Huangmen advocated three links.After ascending the throne, he turned around and stretched out from the hall.

All the ministers and family members knelt down to pay homage to the queen, congratulating the queen on her new happiness for a long time.

Guantao held his daughter's hand, sent her to ride in a public transportation vehicle, and sent her blessings with a smile.Chen Jiao took one last look at her old home before boarding the car.The curtain of the car was lowered, and the ministers and relatives mounted their horses. Wei Weijun yelled "巸", the people avoided, and the long queen's honor guard was pulled up, and they went to the majestic Weiyang Palace.

As dusk fell, Prime Minister Dou Ying rode a red horse to clear the way, passing through Shangguanqian Street and turning to Zhangtai Street, and knocked on Weiyang Dongque, leading the way in a short [-] miles, the four-mile long street, guarded by soldiers of the Southern Army holding halberds , the tip of the halberd gleamed with cold light, and after the people of the forty palaces in the middle of the road cleared the way, the ink car was painted black and as spacious as a room.

In the first year of the Jianyuan period of the Great Han Dynasty, Chen Jiao married the emperor Liu Che with the gift of a queen.

Slightly opening the curtain of the car, Chen Jiao looked at Li Ling and the others who were walking in front, Dou Yifang, do you think you can damage my dignity by letting Li Ling and the others come to welcome the bride?I am the queen, a great man with thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, destined to be shared by me and Liu Che, and you... will soon lose your daughter.

One move away, you will be old after all.Do you think you are really the only queen in the palace for decades?Don't forget, in the past, you just won by being able to bear it, but now you can't bear it anymore.but I……

can bear.

**********

Tangyihou Mansion.

"Empress Dowager, what does this mean? If Lord Dou hadn't asked for orders, did he really intend to invite a group of people with no official positions to welcome her? Gillian is the empress, her own granddaughter, according to the ancestral system, this should be the Prime Minister What she did with the Taiwei, summoning and conferring seals, she is good enough to let a little court lieutenant..."

"Okay, don't talk about it!" Guan Tao was feeling melancholy about his daughter's marriage. Hearing the complaints of his two sons, even though he comforted himself repeatedly in his heart, he still couldn't help feeling resentful. She has reason, where is it your turn to make irresponsible remarks here?"

"Reason?" Chen Yu snorted, "A Niang is His Majesty's aunt and the Empress's mother, but she can't even enter the palace to observe the ceremony. What's the reason? It was Chen Li who entered the palace with King Jiangdu, A Niang , I think the imperial grandmother did it on purpose!"

"We are Gillian's natal family, so we don't enter the palace as a rule..."

"But Auntie, your surname is Liu!" Chen Yu complained, "We are just a younger sister, and you are just a daughter..."

Liu Xing glared at the two sons, stood up, and looked towards the palace: "As long as Ah Jiao lives happily, it doesn't matter. Both Liu Nian and Jinse followed Ah Jiao into the palace, and they all followed Ah Jiao. Now that the old people around Jiao are old, I can also relax. With them taking care of Gillian, I don't think I will wrong her. It's just that this silly child doesn't want to take any golden house. I don't know... I don't know if she did it. Woe!"

"My younger sister has been assertive since she was a child," Chen Ji comforted Liu Xing, "Mother doesn't have to worry."

"I hope... she is my daughter. No matter what, I'm always worried about her. Hey... I'm tired, Su Xin, help me go back and rest!"

With a long sigh, Guantao returned to the house.

"The villain pays respects to the princess."

"Dong Yan?" Liu Xun frowned, "Why did you come here?"

"It was Lord Weng who asked me to find the princess after she got married." Dong Yan also brought a box, "This is what Lord Weng asked me to give to the princess."

"A-Jiao?" Liu Xun opened the box suspiciously, but saw a box full of jewelry, "This is..."

"The Lord Weng asked the villain to do it, and the tricks in it are also the Lord Weng's idea." Dong Yan took out one of them, "Princess, do you want to try it?"

"No," Liu Xun hesitated for a while, but still did not close the box, "Come and talk with me!"

"Here."

**********

Candles were lit one after another in the main hall. Although the sky was dark, the hall seemed to be daylight.

"Empress," the palace people did not dare to speak loudly, "please go to the palace."

Chen Jiao took a deep breath, put on a bright smile, and Liu Nian and Jinse held up their long skirts and followed behind her.She stepped up the palace steps, passed the court officials, and walked towards Liu Che step by step: "My concubine Chen wishes Your Majesty a long and boundless life."

"Get up!" Liu Che's voice had long since lost its original immaturity, and was already three to four points calm.This was the first time that Chen Jiao saw Liu Che sitting in the middle. The boy he called Little Pig back then had grown up and became the emperor.

The officials stood up, took their seats and saluted, and paid homage to the queen one by one. After the yellow gate trumpeted three times, the queen ascended the throne and the ceremony was completed.

"A-Jiao," Liu Che stretched out his right hand, "I did it."

Chen Jiao stretched out her hand, shook hands with Liu Che, and walked into the Xuanshi Hall.

The Xuanshi Hall is spacious, with black curtains fluttering lightly, solemn and solemn, and 96 fat palace lanterns are burning fiercely, illuminating the whole hall as bright as day.Pepper is spicy and has a fragrant and dry taste.

The wedding of the empress of the Great Han Dynasty.It was held in this palace.

She once heard the palace people talk about Liu Ying and Zhang Yan's big marriage. When Liu Heng became emperor, Dou Yifang was already the queen. After becoming the queen, she sat in the back seat for more than ten years. scene.

The palace people came out to welcome them, holding copper gongs in their hands.Wash the newlyweds.

Dian Aozhi disposed of the couch, and there was also a food table painted with dragons and phoenixes to present auspiciousness.Liu Che stood in the west as usual, bowed to invite Chen Jiao to the table, and sat opposite each other.The two eat together.

A minister offered a brocade silk tray, and the freshly picked gourd was cut into two pieces, tied in the middle with a red silk thread, and placed on the tray.Liu Che and Chen Jiao each held a gourd and poured wine for each other.At the same time, the praiser wished from the side, "We are married, and we are like wings. Husband and wife are in prison together, and from now on the same dignity and inferiority, paw melon and melon together, husband and wife are one body, honor, disgrace, joys and sorrows will never be avoided. It will be a good fate forever." The voice is solemn, even in Chen Jiao's heart , I don't feel serious.

The same prison refers to the newly married couple eating the meat of the same livestock.Because in ancient times, before men and women were married, they sat on different seats and ate with different utensils. Now they become official couples, which means that they can sit at the same table and eat with the same utensils.

The original meaning of Heyao is to break the gourd (melon) into two, and to combine them into one vessel.Therefore, the husband and wife drink the wine together, which not only symbolizes the union of the husband and wife and the eternal love, but also has the deep meaning of letting the bride and groom share the joys and sorrows.

This is the most meaningful part of the wedding.It is an essential ceremony for every newlyweds to hold their wedding ceremony.

The praiser pours wine again, and puts the jue on the case to worship.The newlyweds drink three times, and the ceremony is completed.At this time, the groom got up and took off the tassels from the bride's head himself.One waiter served a plate and put the untied red tassels into the plate; another waiter served a plate, which contained a pair of scissors, and the groom took the scissors to remove a lock of the bride's hair; the groom put the scissors back; bit;

The waiter helps the bride to get up, goes to the groom and cuts off a lock of the groom's hair, and then sits back to her original position; the admirer sits in the middle and fastens the hair of the two couples with red ribbons, and puts them in the sachet together with the red tassels.

Finally, there is the bed ceremony.The maid takes off the bride's clothes, and the groom's clothes are accepted by the male waiter. The groom takes off the bride's hijab by himself, and the waiter comes out holding a candle.After the ceremony, the emperor and empress officially became husband and wife.The two went to meet the Liu family members together.

**********

The big wedding was completed, Chen Jiao was supported by Fleeting Nian, and met with several Liu clan relatives as a queen.

"Your Majesty Liu Fei congratulates the empress, and wishes your Majesty and the empress a happy marriage for a hundred years."

Chen Jiao was dressed in a queen's gown, looking at the King of Jiangdu who was kneeling in front of her, and 20 years passed without realizing it.

"Be flat!" Chen Jiao took a deep breath to calm herself down, "King Jiangdu and I grew up together and have a deep relationship, so there is no need to perform such a great gift."

"Courtesy cannot be broken." Liu Fei looked at the girl he had loved deeply for more than ten years. She was finally married, but unfortunately... this person is not himself, and has never been him.

"My lady..."

"Call me Gillian. Unless...you really only regard me as a queen."

"A-Jiao, are you happy?"

"I will be happy." Chen Jiao drank all the wine in the glass, "If...if..." She looked at the wrinkles in the corners of Liu Fei's eyes, "Do you know? There used to be a place where there was a custom that the bride's hands Will hold a bouquet of flowers, the bouquet is the guardian of the wedding, and can protect the people at the wedding from bad luck and disease. If an unmarried woman receives the bouquet thrown by the bride at the wedding, she will find her own happiness Partner, become the next happy bride. If I have such a bouquet of flowers in my hand, I want to give it to you, and I want you to be happy. This matter has never changed."

"If you wear Zan Er, you will be more beautiful."

Zan Er...

"...I haven't worn one for many years."

"why?"

"..." Chen Jiao didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Is it what I thought?"

"What are you thinking?" Chen Jiao forced a smile, "I don't know what you're thinking. I'm afraid of pain, so I haven't pierced my ears since I got them plugged. After so many years, I got used to it." Don't wear hairpins."

"A-Jiao, you can lie to me, but you can't lie to yourself."

"I never lied to myself."

I never lied to myself that I loved Liu Che, I always knew that I loved you.

I promised you that I would only wear the Zan Er you gave me, I remember, and I did it.It's a pity that I have more important things to do than feelings. Dou Yifang is still alive and well, and King Liang is also still alive. My revenge has not been avenged yet.

Liu Fei, I really want to ask you, if one day I get my wish, will you still be where you are?However, even I don't know whether it will take three years or five years until this day.How dare I extravagantly expect you to still guard the heart city for me?

"What are you talking about?" Liu Che's arrival interrupted the melancholy atmosphere between Liu Fei and Chen Jiao.

"You're talking about when you were a child!" Chen Jiao perfunctory.

Liu Che put a wristband on Chen Jiao's waist: "Ah Jiao, I'm so happy, you're finally married to me. Ever since I was a child, I've been thinking about when I can marry you. Look, I've become the emperor. It's done, you are my queen, you are my own."

"Che'er?" Chen Jiao smelled the smell of alcohol all over Liu Che's body, "You are drunk, let Guo Sheren help you to rest!"

"No, no, I'm not drunk!"

"Guo Sheren," Chen Jiao said, not in the habit of talking nonsense with drunks, "quickly help His Majesty back to the palace!"

"I don't!" Liu Che held A-Jiao tightly, stared at her for a while, and then began to giggle again, "Sister A-Jiao...Sister A-Jiao...Sister A-Jiao..."

"Just say that His Majesty is too strong to drink, so I will help him back to the palace." After Chen Jiao finished speaking, she hit Liu Che on the back of the head with a knife, causing Li Ling and Guo Sheren to hold him up when he fainted, and carried him into the Xuanshi Palace.

The author has something to say: There are many etiquettes in the Han Dynasty that are no longer testable. I refer to the Han Dynasty and some of the Song Dynasty. Let’s take a look.
