Princess is stubborn

Chapter 26, Big Wedding

The only daughter of the current emperor of Daqi, and the most favored princess in the history of Daqi, Princess Yuyao is finally married!

On the wedding day, before dawn, Xu Yuyao was woken up by a bell.

"Your Highness, it's time to get up and take a shower."

Xu Yuyao was erected in a daze, then took off her clothes, and changed into the wedding dress from inside to outside.

Xu Yuyao, who was still a little awake, got dressed and was supported and sat in front of the dressing table.

The inspector of rituals was combing Xu Yuyao's hair in a bun, when Xu Yuyao half-closed her eyes and said, "I'm hungry."

"Your Highness, this..." the supervisor of ceremonies said humanely, "You can't eat on the wedding day."

"No matter, Ling Dang, go to the imperial dining room to get something to eat." Xu Yuyao opened her eyes with displeasure on her face.

There was no other way, the person in charge of rituals chose to shut up.

After all, today was Xu Yuyao's big wedding, if they made Xu Yuyao unhappy, or something happened, they might lose their lives.

"Here." Ling Dang hurried away.

There was nothing to eat in the imperial dining room at the moment, Ling Dang called the imperial cook to get up, cooked a bowl of noodles and brought them back to Xu Yuyao.

After eating the noodles, Xu Yuyao was in a much better mood, and let the supervisor of ceremonies paint her face as if she had rolled out of the noodles, and after she came out, she was stained with cinnabar ink.

"Not yet?" Xu Yuyao only felt that the phoenix crown they just put on her head was about to break her neck.

"It's alright, it's alright." The person in charge of rituals could only coax, "Cover your head."

The red hijab embroidered with exquisite patterns covered the phoenix crown, but it became the last straw that overwhelmed the camel.

"Why is this so heavy? Take it away!"

Seeing that Xu Yuyao was about to take off the hijab while talking.

Seeing this, the inspector of ceremonies rushed over immediately and held her hand: "Your Highness must not, this is unlucky!"

Xu Yuyao shook off them, took off the hijab, and threw it aside: "Isn't this Palace doing too many unlucky things? It's not bad."

"This..." The supervisor of ceremonies hesitated.

As long as they didn't tell about things like eating before Li Cheng, no one else would know, so the princess was playing tricks, and they followed her.Things like flipping the hijab...

"Here and here, is it not auspicious if you delay the time?"

The supervisor of ceremonies had no choice but to help Xu Yuyao out of the bedroom.

The bright red sedan chair was waiting at the entrance of the bedroom, Xu Yuyao got on the sedan chair, bumped all the way to the palace gate, and then transferred from the palace gate to the carriage that was decorated in festive red from the roof to the wheels.

In front of the carriage, Xie Bai was already wearing that red wedding dress, riding a tall horse, waiting there.

Xu Yuyao couldn't help but take a second look.

In the twilight of the morning, Xie Bai, wearing a jade crown, sat on the horseback, against the light, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off.

"Your Highness, Your Highness?" The supervisor of ceremonies called out twice, and after seeing her come back to his senses, he said, "Your Highness, face the palace and bow three times."

"No. It's not like you won't come to see your father, queen and queen after you get married. How can you worship today with such a thing that weighs several kilograms?"

The person in charge of ceremonies had no choice but to say: "Later, Your Highness will still worship the heaven and the earth with the son-in-law, won't you?"

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Yuyao said: "If you remove this crown, I will worship you."

There was no other way, the supervisor of ceremonies had no choice but to temporarily remove the phoenix crown, and put it back on for Xu Yuyao after she finished worshiping.

Xu Yuyao's carriage drove at the front, followed by a convoy carrying dowry, like a long dragon, winding slowly from the gate of the imperial palace to every street in Beijing.

Hearing that Princess Yuyao and Lord Xie Xiaohou were getting married today, the people in central Beijing rushed to the streets early in the morning to watch the excitement.

The carriages carrying the dowry were all hung with red ribbon flowers, and the large boxes under the flowers were stacked up one by one, as tall as half a person.

"Could the emperor take half of the treasury's treasures as a dowry?"

"Before those young masters said they didn't want to be Princess Shang, now seeing these dowry, I don't know if those people regret it?"

Xie Bai rode his horse and walked slowly at the front of the convoy, so he could hear it clearly.

She doesn't know if those people regret it or not, but she is very happy now.Fortunately, Xu Yuyao chose her and pulled herself out of the muddy mud.

"Didn't you hear that Xie Xiaohou pretended to be sick and escaped marriage?"

"How could it be possible to escape marriage? With this imperial decree, if he escapes marriage, what will the Marquis of Changping do?"

"I don't think the handsome young master Xie looks like he's pretending to be sick and running away from marriage."

"Who would be unhappy to see so many dowries? So what if the princess is savage, the treasures are real!"

Gradually, the topic became a bit off topic, and Xie Bai turned a deaf ear to it.

Xu Yuyao was sitting in the carriage, and could only hear the noise outside, but couldn't hear what they were talking about.

The carriage was moving very slowly, so slow that Xu Yuyao even wanted to open the door to remind her.But this morning, the person in charge of ceremonies warned that the streets are full of fish and dragons, so you must not open the door of the car.

After getting up early in the morning, Xu Yuyao yawned and leaned her heavy head to the side, and fell asleep slowly after being tormented by such a lot.

When the carriage stopped, Xu Yuyao didn't notice either - she was walking too slowly before, as if she wasn't walking.

Xie Bai got off the horse according to the etiquette procedure, got into the carriage, opened the door, and saw Xu Yuyao leaning against the wall of the carriage, sleeping soundly, with a face full of pink.

The corners of his mouth turned up unconsciously, Xie Bai said softly: "Your Highness, it's time to get off the carriage."

Hearing Xie Bai's voice, Xu Yuyao rubbed her eyes and ended up rubbing her hands with powder.

Xie Bai retreated outside the carriage door, and handed the other end of the red silk to her.

Xu Yuyao looked at the piece of red silk, and after reaching out to take the end, he pulled the piece from Xie Bai's hand with all his strength, threw it into the carriage, and handed over his powder-stained right hand by the way.

Looking at the slender and graceful but powdered hand in front of him, and at the piece of red silk that Xu Yuyao had thrown into the corner of the carriage, Xie Bai directly held Xu Yuyao's hand.

Xu Yuyao's palms were slightly sweaty, probably because the wedding dress was too thick.

Being led by Xie Bai out of the carriage, Xu Yuyao felt that her neck was about to break when she woke up from sleep—is this for marriage, or for punishment?

When the inspector of ceremonies saw the two people's hands directly intertwined, their eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

However, at this time the prince, princess, four princes and concubines, all the court ministers and noble wives who were watching the ceremony arrived, so they could only pretend not to see them and continue with the following process.

"Across the brazier—"

There was a brazier at the entrance of the Princess Mansion, Xie Bai stepped over first, and then stepped over cautiously with Xu Yuyao.

From entering the gate of the princess mansion to the two sides of the road leading to the front hall, there were many people who came to watch the ceremony.

Seeing the two of them coming in hand in hand like this, everyone was dumbfounded: This seems...incompatible with etiquette?

However, Xu Yuyao had followed Xie Bai all the way to the main hall.

"The auspicious time has come—a prayer to heaven and earth—"

Xu Yuyao originally wanted to remove the phoenix crown, but Xie Bai took her hand, scratched her palm with his fingers, and whispered: "Your Highness, please bear with me a little."

The irritable mood was inexplicably calmed down, Xu Yuyao still did not let go of the hands they held together, and bowed outside.

"Husband and wife greet each other—"

The two stood facing each other, and could only let go of their hands.

The phoenix crown was really too heavy, Xu Yuyao almost couldn't stand up straight after praying.Seeing this, Xie Bai hurriedly stepped forward and held her by the arm.

"Licheng, send it to the bridal chamber—"

The bedroom that I lived in just a few days ago has also been rearranged, with red silk and satin ribbons everywhere, festive double happiness characters are pasted on the doors and windows, and dragon and phoenix candles are also placed in the room.

Xu Yuyao was helped into the room by the supervisor of ceremonies, and sat on the side of the bed.

"It's time for the son-in-law to toast outside."

Xie Bai glanced at Xu Yuyao and said, "Your Highness, that minister will go out first."

"Drink less." Xu Yuyao said, "If anyone persuades you to drink too much, bring me out of the palace to scare him."

"Yes."

For some reason, since waking up this morning, Xie Bai felt that he was in a particularly good mood.

Back in the front hall, everyone who came to watch the ceremony had already taken their seats.The crown prince, four princes and their families sat at a table, and Xie Bai respected from this table first.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for taking the time to come here, and I respect you all."

Holding the wine glass, the crown prince said: "Since it's a gift, it's time to change your mouth."

"Thank you, brothers." Xie Bai said after a pause.

The prince smiled, and finally drank the glass of wine, and said after drinking, "I know you have a good temper, but Yao'er has been used to being arrogant and indulgent since she was a child. If there is something wrong in the future, you should be more tolerant."

"I save it."

Leaving from this table, Xie Bai went to toast with several guests from the Hou Mansion.

The people sitting at this table are basically the same as her father Xie Houye, whose ancestors have made meritorious service in founding the country and have been inherited from generation to generation.

"Ziqing respects all uncles."

"I didn't expect that, as the youngest child in our family, you would start a family earlier than your unsatisfactory brothers."

"Xie Bai is handsome and handsome, how can we brats compare with him?"

Although it was a joke, Xie Bai could hear the sourness in their words.But what does that have to do with me?

Smiling at several people, Xie Bai picked up the wine glass, raised his head and drank it down.

Except for these two tables that need Xie Bai to toast, the guests at the other tables can just toast together.Xie Bai drank three glasses of wine, but felt nothing.

Seeing that Xie Bai finished his toast, some familiar young people called him over.

"Young Master, the journey has been smooth since then."

Xie Bai thought he was talking about official career, so he explained: "The son-in-law of this dynasty is not allowed to be an official."

"Hey, I didn't mean that." The man smiled and said, "All of a sudden, there are five more arrogant uncles, and a wife who is less than one person and more than ten thousand. In the future, you can thank the young master for being in the capital, can't you?" Walked sideways?"

Xie Bai smiled, noncommittal.

Seeing that Xie Bai was together with that group of dudes, Ding Wang frowned and said, "Why is this kid still hanging out with that group of people?"

They also heard about Xie Bai's going to the brothel, but they didn't know who took Xie Bai there, they just saw this group of young dudes, and they regarded it as a group.

Duke Huai looked at the crown prince: "Brother Sanhuang, should we call Xie Bai over and beat him hard?"

The prince thought for a while, then called the servant behind him, and called Xie Bai over.

"Come on." King Ding asked someone to fill Xie Bai's glass with wine, "From today onwards, we are a family. A family does not talk about two different things."

Knowing that there was something in the other party's words, Xie Bai only felt that the wine in the glass was a bit heavy.

"Yao'er is our only younger sister. She has been likable since she was a child. Although she has a little naughty personality, it's just that little." Wang Ding said, "He is our precious sister, you can't let her Take a little grievance!"

Xie Bai nodded.

If it was before, she must have thought that Xu Yuyao's stubbornness was more than just a little bit, but now she feels that what King Ding said makes sense.

Duke Huai said: "Yao'er has never tolerated sand in her eyes since she was a child. If you do something wrong to her, don't wait for her to deal with you. This king will never let you go lightly."

Princess Huai on the side listened, lowered her eyelids, thoughtful.

Xie Bai smiled awkwardly.

King Rui said: "Yao'er never knows how to accommodate others. If there is anything wrong with the Hou family in the future, I will wrong you to accommodate her more."

Only King Xuan smiled and looked kindly: "Treat Yaoer well, this king can tell that she likes you very much, don't let her down."

The prince was in charge of the conclusion: "Yao'er is still young, you have to take care of her more in the future."

Xie Bai, who was two years younger than Xu Yuyao, could only nod his head.

Bearing the crime of bullying and being looked down upon by all the royal family, Xie Bai could only be obedient until Xu Yuyao helped her solve the crime of bullying.

When Xie Bai and the five of them finished drinking and left, Duke Huai couldn't help saying, "He can really bear it."

"If he can't bear even this little thing and we get married in the future, just Yao'er's temper can make him mad." Ding Wang said.

However, the prince didn't think so.

He had seen how Xu Yuyao treated Xie Bai.

But he felt that rather than saying that Xie Bai could bear it, it would be better to say that Xie Bai was smart, perhaps he had already guessed their intentions.

Xu Yuyao asked the supervisor of ceremonies to remove the phoenix crown from his head, and then he was about to change into the wedding clothes on his body.

The person in charge of ceremonies hurriedly stopped him: "Even if Your Highness doesn't care about auspiciousness, you should also pay attention to how your son-in-law will feel when he sees His Highness changing clothes when he comes to the bridal chamber later."

"What does clothes have to do with your mood?" Xu Yuyao felt that the group of supervisors was simply too annoying, and when the wedding was over, they must go back to where they came from.

"Every man hopes in his heart that he can take off the wedding dress of the woman he likes with his own hands."

"Is that so?" Xu Yuyao thought for a while and said, "What does it matter to me?"

Xie Bai is not a man.

Seeing that it didn't make sense, the supervisor of ceremonies shut up.

Xu Yuyao looked at them with displeasure: "If you don't go out, how can I change clothes?"

"Yes."

After driving people out, Xu Yuyao can finally take off the cumbersome wedding dress.If it wasn't for getting married with Xie Bai, she wouldn't be wronged like this!

Putting on a flimsy dress, Xu Yuyao also washed her face covered with three catties of powder.

Ling Dang couldn't help but said: "Your Highness doesn't take the rules so seriously, aren't you afraid that God will blame you?"

"Is there really a God?" Xu Yuyao didn't believe it. "If there is a God, then there are still sinners in this world?"

In the past, Ling Dang firmly believed that there was a God, but now that Xu Yuyao said so, she also doubted it.

"Forget it, whether there is a god or not is none of my business. Bell, I'm hungry."

"Slaves, let's go to the kitchen to have a look."

Ling Dang soon returned with a food box, which contained meat and vegetables, and a bowl of noodles.

Xu Yuyao took the chopsticks and started to gobble it up—the wedding convoy circled the city for a long time, watching the sun outside, it was almost midnight now.Except for eating the bowl of noodles in the morning, Xu Yuyao has been hungry until now.

"Ling Dang, you eat a piece too."

"Here." In the past, Ling Dang accompanied her out to play and forgot the time, and Xu Yuyao asked her to eat together after a day of hunger.

After Hesse had a meal, Xu Yuyao was finally full and couldn't sit still anymore.

"Bing Ding, why haven't they finished outside?"

"Your Highness, the outside will continue until Xushi."

That's too long!Xu Yuyao began to worry about Xie Bai.

There are so many visitors today, one cup after another, Xie Bai is afraid that he will get drunk again.

"No, I have to go and see."

When I opened the bedroom door, I saw the supervisor of ceremonies guarding the door, one on each side.

"Where is Your Highness going?"

"Do you care about me?" Signaling Bell to open the hand they blocked, Xu Yuyao went straight to the front hall.

The supervisor of ceremonies couldn't stop him, so he gave up.

Xu Yuyao walked quickly all the way to the front hall, and before she arrived, she heard the lively sound from afar.

Seeing someone coming out from behind, everyone didn't react at first, after all Xu Yuyao had already changed the wedding dress.

After seeing who was coming, someone stood up and said, "Why is the princess running out now? It's unlucky!"

Xu Yuyao saw Xie Bai being dragged to drink, and suddenly his face darkened: "It's not up to you to take care of what I do!"

Then he strode towards Xie Bai.

Seeing Xu Yuyao approaching, Xie Bai felt relieved: "Your Highness."

"Didn't Ben Gong say that? If someone pulls you to persuade you non-stop, will you report Ben Gong's name to persuade you to quit?"

Xie Bai lowered his head.All the people here are serving in the court, Xu Yuyao can not care about offending them, but Xie Bai can't.

At this time, these dandies also drank too much, and became more courageous: "Your Highness is so domineering, but just drank a few more glasses with brothers, and His Highness feels sorry for the wine in the house?"

"Bengong loves wine?" Xu Yuyao raised his eyebrows, "Okay, then you can drink it. You can't drink all the wine in my wine cellar, and you are not allowed to leave."

Knowing that Xu Yuyao was angry again, Xie Bai stretched out his hand to hold her hand, and shook it lightly: "Your Highness, today is a day of great joy, so don't be angry. Brother Liu also drank too much to speak freely, it was not his intention .”

"For the sake of your son-in-law's pleading, I will forgive you this time. But I hope that everyone present here will remember this." Xu Yuyao looked around and said, "If you call me again in the future When the palace sees anyone who dares to persuade her son-in-law to drink and force her to drink when she doesn't want to drink, this palace will never forgive him!"

The bustle around immediately dissipated, and everyone fell silent.

The crown prince did not expect that Xu Yuyao would be so angry that he would not let go of his own wedding banquet, and sighed: Forget it, I should have known that in Xu Yuyao's eyes, all the rules are fake.

But with the release of Xu Yuyao, the banquet ended early.

What other people think, Xu Yuyao doesn't care, she only knows that it's great that everyone is gone!

Next, it will be her and Xie Bai's time - Xu Yuyao thought so until she saw the inspector of ceremonies standing there like a pole at the door of the bedroom.
