Shi Min said, "Where is Yan Aiqing?"

"Chen Zai" is the way of saluting as one of the few straight Yan Yinuo standing above the court hall holding a wat.

"Tell me what you think." Shi Min didn't want to send troops, but she couldn't take the lead in this matter. After all, she should be the one who wanted revenge the most, so the ministers who stood up became the breakthrough point, and the one who dared to speak out the most If he wanted to belong to Yan Yinuo, he ordered her.

It wasn't that Shi Min had changed his temper and was afraid of these ministers, so he didn't dare to directly refute and deny it, but that the ministers asked for orders to go to war not only out of loyalty or anger, but also to give her, the emperor, an excuse to send troops. The emperor who suffered such great humiliation did not want to take revenge.

So everyone went to the shuffle to ask for a war, not only to give her a reason to retaliate aboveboard, but also to share the responsibility for sending troops, so even if she didn't want to send troops, she couldn't directly deny the minister's heart.

Yan Yinuo thought about it for a while and said: "The country despises the emperor's humiliation, and the emperor humiliates his ministers to death. I think that what your lords said is not unreasonable. However, the emperor's wedding is approaching, and the dispatch of troops cannot be decided overnight. Why not wait for the emperor Discuss after marriage."

So many honorable ministers asked for orders to send troops, but His Majesty didn't ask a question or two, but asked to hear her unspoken thoughts by name. Yan Yinuo instantly understood that His Majesty didn't want to send troops, at least at this time, so he put his heart on it. Having said that, she really thinks that the big marriage is more important, a gentleman, it's not too late to take revenge for ten years.

Shi Min clicked on the names of Chengting and Duan Yunjie, who stood straight and did not express their opinions. The two people's thoughts coincided with what Yan Yinuo said. I learned everything, but at least it was a good start.

"What's Zhu Aiqing thinking?" Qin Tianjian Zhu Da did not follow the crowd this time, he was quite conspicuous, and there were not many standing straight, so Shi Min specially named him.

The reason why a feudal society is called a feudal society is not all because of the word feudal. Zhu Da is the best candidate for the Qintian Supervisor.

Zhu Da, who originally thought he would not point to him, was stunned for a moment before he said: "Qizou the emperor, I have been watching the sky these days and nights, and the stars in the sky are dim, which may not be conducive to sending troops to conquer, so I suggest that the expedition be postponed."

One of the responsibilities of the Qin Tianjian is to divination in advance for major events such as expeditions and sacrifices in the country. Secretly report to the emperor.

This time Zhu Da did not go with the crowd, because the celestial phenomena he observed were indeed not suitable for sending troops to conquer, but they were not unusual, so he did not give a secret report in advance.

Shi Min ordered a few more officials who did not go along with sending troops. Apart from the reason of the big wedding, someone finally said what she wanted to hear. The sky is high and the road is far away. .

Only then did Shi Min look at Luo Bumin who was saluting Ren and the others and said, "Get up, you all heard what they said, what do you think?".

"Thank you, Your Majesty" everyone stood up straight, but Luo Bumin didn't give up, and said again: "Your Majesty, I think that the celestial phenomenon is false, and there is no basis for it...".

Shi Min took a look at Rob Min, if she remembered correctly, she had used this sentence to scold Zhu Da before, but she hadn't accepted his opinion yet.

Before Shi Min could open his mouth, someone stepped forward to refute, "Lord Luo's words are inappropriate. Going to war is a national priority. Heroes and warriors are like Emperor Taizong and Emperor Taizong. Whenever there is a major battle, you must first divination and ask about the ominous fortune. You pay attention to the right time, place and people. And, if it is beneficial, it will go out, if it is not good, it will be postponed. The Tianchong Star Lord will go out to fight, since it is gloomy, it may be unfavorable to send troops, please think twice, Your Majesty." Wen Yuan, who originally agreed to send troops, made a [-]-degree turn.

It's not that Wen Yuan has already guessed Shi Min's attitude, but that she firmly believes in the theory of celestial phenomena and her ancestors, and she doesn't want to take the risk of anything that is not conducive to the Hua Dynasty, after all, compared to the emperor's face , the stability of the country is the most important thing.

With Wen Yuan taking the lead, Yanjun Wang and others who were already a little shaken also changed their attitudes. They don't care if the sky is not the sky. The important thing is the attitude of the emperor and the fact that the wedding is coming soon.

So many of them invited to fight, His Majesty not only did not immediately agree, but asked the opinions of those who did not express their opinions one by one, but it is not difficult for anyone with a little brain to guess what His Majesty is thinking.

After all the ministers who had thoughts and wanted to talk had finished speaking, Shi Min finally opened his mouth and concluded: "Since the celestial phenomena indicate that it is unfavorable to go out to the war, I am about to get married again. I think that matters should be prioritized, and the matter of the big wedding is related to the country, so it cannot be called It's not serious, the matter of dispatching troops is not in a hurry, so let's postpone it and discuss it after the wedding, what do you think?".

The "Emperor Wise" ministers who disapproved of sending troops quickly agreed, and those who wanted to send troops had no choice but to agree because of the emperor's attitude. Fortunately, it was only a postponement, and there was no final denial.

The most important thing is the reason given by the emperor, which made them deeply agree, especially after this assassination, they all hoped that His Majesty would get married and give birth to an heir as soon as possible to consolidate the foundation of the country.

The things that Shi Min least wanted to deal with were all dealt with, and other things were nothing to worry about, but because she hadn't been in court for a long time, the ministers of various ministries and governments all reported in order to show their loyalty, and the reports were quite detailed, so this Busy until noon.

After the court, Shi Min went directly to the Wenxuan Hall, and after a short break for lunch, he started the next agenda - meeting the ministers, so busy that he didn't even have time to play with Qingying, let alone read idle books, okay? There is still time to think about Bu Qianxue.

Compared with Shi Min's busyness, Bu Qianxue was much more relaxed when she returned to Buhou's Mansion. The wedding was being prepared by her family, so she would at most be a helper. She had a lot of free time, which was just used to prepare gifts.

...one month later...

At the beginning of Maoshi on September [-]th in the eighth year of Tianfu, light rain suddenly fell in the still dark night sky, and the palace lanterns were burning like ink like needles. Lu Guanchu gently pushed open the main entrance of the main hall with a burning candlestick, and passed another road He walked to the front of the screen and stopped holding the candlestick and tentatively shouted: "Your Majesty, it's time to get up."

"Come in." Just when Lu Guanchu thought he was going to shout three or four times like in the past, he unexpectedly heard a familiar voice. He hurriedly answered "Yes" and went to light the lamp. When the lights turned on, I walked inside with the tray in order.

Lu Guanchu served Shi Min to wash and said happily, "Your Majesty's face is full of red today. It really is a happy event. I am here to congratulate Your Majesty in advance."

Shi Min, who had just finished brushing his teeth, washed his face before continuing: "I have good eyesight. I am really happy today. Although the wedding is tomorrow, it actually starts from today. How can anyone be unhappy? By the way, what is the weather like today?" ?”.

"It started to rain just before I came in, maybe it will stop after a while." Lu Guanchu said and handed over the wrung-out hot handkerchief, Shi Min took it and wiped his hands, and handed it to the side when he was done using it Waiting servant.

"I hope so." Shi Yan stood up and sat in front of the dressing table. The palace attendant in charge of combing his hair stepped forward and loosened his hair and combed it carefully. Looking at himself clearly in the polished mirror with continuous arcs and phoenix patterns, he suddenly remembered something. A modern thing to come.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or a coincidence, but as I grow older, my appearance becomes more and more like my modern self, but when I look closely, there are differences in the subtleties, which makes her happy, and sometimes she can't help but reflect on herself—— who I am?Am I still me?

Before meeting Bu Qianxue, she hardly looked in the mirror, because seeing her own face in the bronze mirror would make her think about it, especially thinking about modern things, such as that failed relationship.

It wasn't until she was with Bu Qianxue that she began to try to look in the bronze mirror, face herself, and warn herself not to make the same mistakes again!Now, she did it!

Today, she is finally going to hold a big wedding ceremony with her beloved, which is something she can't even imagine in modern times.

In modern times, she once imagined that there would be two people in one house, three meals a day for four seasons, and she wanted to work hard for it, but the other party didn't even give her a chance to say it.This is the pain she has never told anyone.

Now looking at herself in the bronze mirror, she can feel relieved, because her heart has been filled with a person named Bu Qianxue, and there is no gap to comfort others.Life is too short, only enough for her to love one person.

On such a big day like today, not only did Shi Min get up early, the palace was extremely busy, even the ministers didn't dare to take leave easily, they got up early and put on court clothes to prepare to enter the palace for the morning court.

The internal officials, palace servants, and imperial guards who had been arranged got up early, and when Shi Min got up, those who should be busy were already busy.

And the Buhou Mansion where the other protagonist lives has been preparing for tomorrow's big wedding since they got engaged. Even the two elders can't be idle, only Bu Qianxue, one of the protagonists, is a little idle.

From renovating the house, promoting environmental sanitation, to buying the three new outfits for the whole family, to preparing the wedding dowry, decorating the lanterns and festoons, making arrangements for the wedding banquet and sending out wedding invitations, the whole family is very busy.

Although they can't overstep the building system and make it as splendid as a palace, it must also be grand, clean, and dazzling.

Even during the few days when Shi Min's life and death were uncertain, the preparations for the big wedding in the palace did not stop, but the Hou Mansion was delayed for a few days because of the incident, so there was no shortage of work in the future.

The sky was bright, and there were lights and festoons everywhere in the palace.All major palaces are equipped with firecrackers and large red candles with the double happiness characters in gold.The word "happy" can be seen everywhere, and the Anren Palace, which is the wedding room, has been completely redecorated from the inside to the outside, and even the wooden couplets have been replaced with festive new couplets.

When Shi Min was wearing the sacrificial ceremony crown and sat on the imperial chariot to leave Fengde Palace, the light rain had turned into drizzle, and the ground in the palace was slightly wet, so the palace servants who carried the imperial chariot had to be cautious at every step.

The weather can't be said to be very good, but it's still acceptable compared to the weather she doesn't like. If it's like this, it's fine. into this?

The imperial chariot did not stop outside the emperor's special passage of Chengtian Palace as usual, but outside the main gate of Chengtian Palace. The Qintian Supervisor Zheng Zhu Da and the Minister of Rites were already waiting five steps away, and the rest of the ministers were waiting. Arranged on both sides in order, those with low positions have already stood on the square.

"The auspicious time has come, please enter the palace." Zhu Da stepped forward two steps and said loudly.

Shi Min tidied his clothes before getting off the chariot. Looking around, red can be seen everywhere, especially the colorful shed built on the gate of the main hall. There are many red hydrangeas. Even Zhu Da and other ministers wore red gauze clothes on the outside of the court clothes as usual. .

Although today is not the Great Court Meeting, the ministers participating in it are the same as the Great Court Meeting, or even more. On the square, there is an orderly standing guard of honor for the emperor going out to sacrifice and another wave of guards of honor carrying many salutes. The square takes up half of it.

As far as this is concerned, it is still the result of Shi Min's reduction. If it is according to Daozong's standards, almost all the squares are full of people, and all the royal roads will be covered with high-quality red carpets. Now there are only Anren Palace and Chengtian Palace has some red carpets.

Surrounded by internal officials, palace attendants, internal guards and other ministers, Shi Min walked into the hall. What was unusual was that the originally empty middle aisle was not only covered with a red carpet, but also had two planning tables.

The desks were all covered with purple tablecloths, and on one tablecloth were placed two red lacquer and gold boxes, which were exquisite and luxurious; on the other desk was a gold festival representing the identity of the emperor.

When he was about to reach the desk, Shi Min stopped, and the Minister of Rites took two steps forward and stopped in front of the right: "The emperor please review the gold festival, the queen's treasure, and the book."

The stones that had been inspected long ago were opened and inspected one by one. The queen’s treasure books are all made of gold. The treasure and the jade seal are a pair. The queen's is engraved with the four characters of Queen's Treasure.

The queen's gold book is custom-made, and each queen has a copy, and it does not need to be passed down, it can be used as a funeral object.

After checking and confirming that there is no problem, Shi Min said "yes", "The inspection ceremony is over, please take the emperor's seat." The Minister of Rites continued.

After Shi Min sat down on the phoenix chair, the civil and military ministers who followed in order in court clothes returned to their respective positions, stood in their positions in order, and began to salute under Lu Guanchu's singing.

The emperor's wedding was not only a happy event for Shi Min, but also a great event for the whole world to celebrate. In addition to the vassals and congresses sending missions to congratulate them, the congratulatory gifts from local officials and local dignitaries have also been registered and stored in the Ministry of Rites.

In order not to disturb the people, Shi Min deliberately issued a decree one year in advance to set the standard for gift giving to local nobles and local officials. The value of gifts given by all honorable nobles should not exceed 500 taels of silver, and the value of gifts given by officials of second rank and above No more than 1000 taels of silver, gradually decreasing, and the value of congratulatory gifts given by the lowest-ranking subordinates at the twelfth level should not exceed 30 taels of silver.

These standards were set by Shi Min with reference to their salaries after careful consideration, and they were all within the scope of his tolerance, and it was specifically stated that if the financial difficulties were particularly difficult, it would be sufficient to submit a memorial to congratulate.

As for the nobles and officials in Fandu, because of the convenience of occupying the terrain, congratulatory gifts will be sent tomorrow. Those with low ranks can only be sent outside Chengtian Hall, and those with high ranks will be sent directly outside Chengtian Hall.

The most expensive gifts of the vassal states will also be presented tomorrow.In the past month, Shi Min also received two batches of medicinal materials from the vassal states. He learned from the hint that the medicinal materials that Xuan Changle sent were the most and the earliest, but the distance was far and it would take some time to arrive. Shi Min was quite happy.

Although the big wedding is tomorrow, from today until the big wedding is completely over, the officials don't have to go to court, and the emperor doesn't have to make decisions at the court, but hold the corresponding ceremony according to the big wedding regulations.

But what should be done, officials who do not participate in the corresponding ceremony or the time period, still have to go back to the government office to work as usual, except for the next two days, because Shi Yan had ordered that the whole country should rest in the next two days to celebrate the wedding. ?
