In recent days, no one has noticed the strange, depressing and thrilling atmosphere in the ruling and opposition parties.

As the mouthpiece of the emperor and the sharp sword on the heads of all officials, Yushitai was silent for an entire seven days, and finally handed over a joint memorial on the eighth day, saying that the prince's wedding is actually a state affair. Naturally, there is no delay, and the wedding should be held as soon as possible.Ning Shangshu is the humerus in the imperial court, a virtuous minister who is rare in a hundred years, even though he married into the East Palace, he does not have to resign...

Listening to this tone, it really doesn't look like the handwriting of those upright censors.

"No... not good!"

After the palace banquet, the government office of the Ministry of Rites finally moved out from the Hou's mansion. A small clerk who was running errands still held a stack of official documents in his hands and couldn't bear to put them down. The adults who are ironing are gasping for breath and shouting intermittently:

"Mrs. Mrs....His Royal Highness has arrived!"

Prince?

When the few people heard these two words, they looked at each other with some doubts and doubts, and their hearts were all stunned——

Today... is it finally the turn of the Ministry of Rites?

Over the years, Li Pei's image in the hearts of courtiers and common people has undergone several drastic changes, and now it is on the verge of collapse.

Five years ago, the prince was gentle and respectful, filial to the emperor, and treated others even more leniently; the young masters in the Hongwen Museum praised "the prince has great talent", and the court ministers' union praised "he will be a benevolent emperor in the future".

Therefore, the courtiers have longings for the court and the Central Plains in the future.

It's a pity that after Li Pei returned to the palace, he really did too many absurd things--repeatedly touched the face of the emperor, continued to have romantic affairs, and the previous absurd peace talks in the Battle of Mobei... Those dreams were cruelly shattered one after another.

Even though it seems that everything is on the right track again now, the Tian family father and son broke the ice, and Mobei entered the territory of the Central Plains, and Li Pei took the military exploits to secure the reserve position as a rock.However, in the eyes of all the ministers, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is increasingly derailed.

Especially since the rumors that Ning Shangshu didn't want to get married came out from some kid in the court, the prince almost tossed all 24 divisions in three provinces and nine temples. He thought that the Ministry of Rites would be spared, but today, His Royal Highness It's really raining and dew evenly, and a bowl of water is flat...

Li Pei didn't put on his Wuli Street Donggong Yijia, his legs seemed to be caught in the wind, and he walked very fast, so not long after the yamen heard the wind, everyone saw the prince wearing a plain and cheerful snow-blue python robe. He stepped into the lobby, holding a book in his hand, followed by several servants carefully carrying a wooden box.

The pupils of the officials of the Ministry of Rites were shocked, and they shouted in their hearts: This is exactly the same as described by colleagues from the other five ministries of Shangshu Province.

Thinking about it, this living Buddha will have to...

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also came to ask me today for a 'new wedding blessing from the heart'?"

Just when everyone fell into a terrifying reverie, a clear and warm voice came.

Ning Shangshu and Ke Shilang happened to come in one after the other from the inner hall of the Yamen, thinking that they had just finished talking about some serious business.The former also held the filial Touhua Ci from his subordinates, and when he saw the scene in front of him, his originally serious face suddenly became a little loose.

Everyone in the Ministry of Rites also came back to their senses after hearing the words.

Yup!

Isn't their Ning Shangshu the crown princess?

Even if the crown prince really wanted to select all 24 divisions of the three provinces and nine temples in one go, he should keep the crown princess's natal family, right?The Crown Princess's natal family looks at the whole of Chang'an, isn't it in their government office of the Ministry of Rites?

Wonderful!

Thinking about it this way, they looked at Li Pei with a bit of confidence in their eyes; once they had confidence, some details that had been ignored just now stood out——

For example, the color of the prince's purple robe today is very similar to Ning Shangshu's official robe.

For example, when the wooden box was opened, it seemed to be a scroll painted and mounted by a court painter.

Another example……

"It's hard work, everyone. I'll be there soon." Although Li Pei was speaking to everyone in the hall, his gaze was always on Fu Nanyin, and he counted them carefully from the door to him. Fifteen steps, the prince walked at a leisurely pace, with a smile on his face like the March spring breeze blowing at the door, which made people's hearts itch - naturally this "person" was just Shangshu Ning.

Li Pei looked at the half-eaten Touhua Ci on Funanyin's disc, bent his mouth, and leaned into his ear and said, "Are you hungry? All you like are what you ordered."

Funanyin didn't expect that Li Pei would stick so close to him in broad daylight under the eyes of everyone. Fortunately, the pinnae of the ears, which were blown red by the warm breath, were hidden behind her hair.He pursed his lips for a long while before saying, "You came... just to deliver a meal?"

"Of course not."

Li Pei smiled, turned back and pointed to the wooden box on the ground, asked the servant to bring it closer, took out a scroll of scrolls and unfolded them, and the color immediately came into Funanyin's eyes.

"The royal wedding dresses of the past dynasties, you can see what you like and what you want to change. In the past few days, I will let the Shangyi Bureau rush to work."

Before Fu Nanyin could respond, he threw the booklet in his hand to Ke Shilang, and told the "mothers" in the yamen hall who were bowing their heads and not to look at evil:

"Gu has some ideas for big weddings in the past few days, please take a look at them, if they can be used, it's good to make preparations."

Although there was some leeway in the words, the involuntary tone clearly told everyone present: The prince's idea must be used!If this big wedding is done well, you are the family members of your natal family. If it is not done as you wish, then today's table at the Wanxianglou will be regarded as a beheaded meal sent by the East Palace in the future.

Everyone naturally knew that the prince's "idea" and etiquette must not coexist, so their hearts tightened, and they all looked at Ning Shangshu for help.

At the same time, Li Pei also cast a sincere and flattering look at his princess.

Funanyin: "..."

Thinking of Li Pei saying pitifully in front of her a few days ago that he secretly planned their wedding a year ago when he was still Pei Tianren, and what he had always thought of was a unique wedding, Fu Nanyin's heart softened and she felt relieved breath out.

So after a while, he raised a pair of extremely unkind eyes and glanced at the colleagues in the etiquette department lined up, and said in a cold and stern tone very eccentrically:

"They're all rebelling? You still don't listen to His Highness' orders!"

Everyone was stunned and couldn't help but be speechless: Sure enough, the Ning Shangshu was thrown out, and the water that got married.

……

Li Pei, who was both kind and powerful, frightened Yushitai away by intimidation, and after bribing the Ministry of Rites with a meal, his wedding with Fu Nanyin was finally put on the agenda in the attention of the world.

According to Li Pei's wish of "the sooner the better", the wedding date was finally set on Shuangqilan Night four months later.

In the first few days, the rewards carried out from the Daming Palace and the betrothal gifts selected by the Ministry of Rites were bound with red silk and were guarded by the Jin Wu Guards. The ritual officers and internal servants led a box and carried it into the gate of the Marquis of Anping.It's a pity that it is the last section of Zhuque Street that connects Daming Palace and Hou's Mansion. It is hidden in an alley full of dignitaries and dignitaries. Those who watched proudly still couldn't help but marvel, and turned around and relayed it to others.

"I can't count how many things there are. The street is full of bright red. Can you guess how long the servants have been transporting back and forth? It's a full two and a half hours! From noon to curfew, it didn't stop for a moment!"

In the next few months, the entire city of Chang'an was immersed in joy.

The common people didn't care that the prospective princess was a man, they would only use it as a topic of conversation.In order to attract people's attention, many teahouses and libraries made Longyang Books all the rage, and even men's houses became popular.Everyone was looking forward to the day of the crown prince's wedding, and wanted to see what shocking tricks these two men who disregarded the secular confinement and eyes together could do.

They really can't guess.

Because Funanyin doesn't like turquoise wedding dresses.

In fact, there were early signs of this incident. In the two years that Li Pei had been in contact with him, he had never seen Fu Nanyin wearing any clothes with turquoise touches; He also frowned extremely forbearingly, and only said that he would think about it again, but thinking about it now, his expression of rejection at that time was already very obvious.

The Bureau of Shangyi in the palace was urging carefully every day, and Li Pei was also coaxing carefully every day: "It's always not good for two people to get married..."

Funanyin looked up at him, and asked, "Isn't it okay?"

So on the day when the crown prince wore a butterfly red dress and drove to Anping Marquis Mansion to welcome the bride, the crown prince who was greeted by the same crimson wedding gown was holding a dough fan in her hand.

The sound of drums and music in the team seemed to have stopped for a moment, and the ceremony official who followed the prince was also stunned for a moment.

In the Marquis of Anping's mansion, there is no high hall for the crown princess, no brothers to see off her relatives, except for a few servants, there are only a few colleagues from the Ministry of Rites standing behind their Ning Shangshu, Ke Shunzhe unnaturally turned his head away, but that Zhao Shuncai recovered today With a bit of old air, he still smiled at Li Pei in such an embarrassing atmosphere and said:

"Groom officer, it's time for you to write a reminder poem! According to the rules, if you don't write the last ten or eight poems, I will not let the minister go with you..."

Naturally, there are no reminder poems.

Because their Ning Shangshu did not wear makeup.

Because the prince's "newly married woman" ate a plate of golden balls and touhua cizi at the time when it was supposed to "reduce the red powder on the candle, don't make spring in front of the mirror", and flipped through the book on the desk while eating. The newly bought Longyang script in the West Street Library, I read it with great interest for an hour...

At that time, Chang'an was already hot in July, and Fu Nanyin was a little dry from the layers of wedding gowns on her body. She thought that the big wedding that he had personally prepared was just a formality, but now the battle was in front of him. On the contrary, he dullly felt a trace of tension and uneasiness.

"Don't delay."

Bird's eyes quickly glanced at the float behind Li Pei, and then looked at the horse that Li Pei was riding when he came, with a red saddle and a red silk flower around his neck. Jia Che, "Let's go..."

"A Yin," but Li Pei gently held his hand.He glanced at the round fan in Fu Nanyin's hand, then set his eyes on the face that was reflected in the crimson wedding dress like peaches and plums, and smiled dotingly and helplessly: "This round fan can't be taken off now."

Funanyin was taken aback, "Huh?"

"It's all seen by others."

Li Pei insisted on covering his eyes with the round fan again, and led him by the hand to the float.

Fu Nanyin was even more confused: "Aren't there colleagues and internal servants around? It's not like I don't recognize..."

Across the bead curtain on the float, the two of them, one tall and the other low, Fu Nanyin leaned over, and Li Pei looked up, within a short distance, an inexplicable and persistent brilliance flashed in the latter's eyes.

"No, today the princess can only let a lonely person see it."

That's undisguised love and possession—even if he could be the Marquis of Anping who fulfilled his wish, and the undeniable Ning Shangshu in the court; but Fu Nanyin, his crown princess only belongs to Li Pei, and he will be completely, completely, for the rest of his life. forever.

The welcoming procession was mighty, from the Marquis' Mansion to the Hanyuan Palace, after paying homage to the emperor, and being worshiped by all the officials, they returned to the East Palace.

At that time, the crescent moon was already hanging on the willow branches, the Hanyuan Palace held a banquet for the ministers, and the East Palace held a family banquet again.After three cups and two cups, Li Pei left the table and walked to the front of the house facing the bright light in the courtyard.

"Your highness came back so early?"

The ceremonial officer waiting at the door hurriedly opened the door for Li Pei, but the person standing at the door suddenly hesitated facing this room that the two of them had been familiar with for a long time.

The door of the room was opened wide, and the candlelight in the room was spilled out, clearly taking a picture of Li Pei secretly wiping the sweat on his palms with a wedding dress.

"..."

According to the rules of big weddings, the ceremony officials in the palace will accompany them to complete the five ceremonies.Then the wedding ceremony is completed, which is Licheng.

When the candles in the room turned red, there were only two people left, and the round fan that had been held warm for a long time was finally thrown aside.Fu Nanyin propped her hands on the couch, looking up at Li Pei slightly.

"is it okay now?"

The latter was also looking at him—looking at his slightly flushed cheeks and the corners of his eyes after drinking, at his face that was so delicate that no flaw could be found no matter how many times, at his eyes that were obviously happy, shy, and nervous Forced to look calm; watching his lips open and close, asked him if it was all right.

Li Pei's reaction was momentarily slow, "What's the matter?"

"The fan has been withdrawn, now only you can see your princess."

Li Pei was taken aback for another moment, then laughed.What he was thinking was...

"After being tired for a long time, I'll ask someone to prepare some supper for you."

Just as he finished speaking, he saw Fu Nanyin half propped up, raised a hand and gently tugged at the skirt of his clothes, and tilted his head with a half-smile.

"I've eaten in the afternoon..." With a force on his hand, Li Pei, who was in a daze and unprepared, was pulled closer by him. Hearing Fu Nanyin whispering: "Husband, I have already eaten, so... can I do it now?"

In this situation, Li Pei would never ask again: What is okay.

He looked into those beautiful eyes, and what was reflected in them was his unexpected but pleasant appearance.

Anything is fine.

At this moment, many images suddenly flashed through Li Pei's mind, including his peaceful childhood, his young youth, his first sight of Fu Nanyin, his helpless parting and resentment, his reunion with hardships and dilemmas... In the end, these images all Turn into the face of the person in front of you, full of shy invitations and shallow smiles.

Is the bright moon in Fangcai courtyard the first quarter moon?Why did he remember the full moon?

"Ayin..."

Li Pei called out unconsciously, and then kissed his forehead, his brows and eyes, and the tip of his nose, all of which melted between his lips and teeth.
