Chapter 38 The Wedding Banquet

On the day of Yinzhen's wedding, sixty tables of banquets were set up in Gandong No. [-] Institute.All the princes and royal families in Beijing, officials above the second rank, wives, guards who are not on duty, and relatives of the Ulanara family have come.

It was the beginning of July, the autumn tiger season, and the weather was still sultry.The flowers placed in the yard were originally intended to look festive, but they were a little wilted at this time.However, the excitement was real. The clans, ministers, and guards sat in separate seats, and hundreds of people gathered in a courtyard, chatting enthusiastically, and raising glasses to drink together from time to time.

Yinzhen was dressed in a red prince's auspicious attire, and also wore a court crown. On a midsummer night, it was unavoidably hot.The smell of food, wine, flowers and sweat in the air mixed together, under the fumigation of the warm air, Yinzhen wrinkled his nose and felt a little sick.Fortunately, I didn't eat anything, but my stomach felt tight and uncomfortable.At this moment, Yinzhen didn't have any joy and expectation in his heart, instead he was very irritable, and stood with a cold face, with a kind of unsmiling majesty.

Because Yinzhen is the same mother and brother, he helped greet the guests during the banquet.Yinhu and Yinrong and I were sitting together, chatting about the interesting things about Yinrong and me recently. The two of them looked at Yinxuan's busy appearance, and from time to time they raised their glasses and took a sip.

Yinhu can no longer remember the scene of Yinzhen's wedding in the previous life.It seemed to be so lively at that time. At that time, he chose a top-grade red sandalwood inlaid with jadeite as the officiant. The gift list was among the princes, but it was slightly worse than the crown prince. Thinking about it, it was true with the fourth child at that time. good friends.Thinking that among the few brothers who got married together, Yinzhen's wife's family was weaker, so he was extra careful when choosing gifts.Now, after all the grievances in the previous life, Yinhu has long since lost the feeling that she had at that time. The ceremony was done with Yinyu and I looking for a slave, and it was basically Yintang's hand. So people moved here.

Yinzhen barely supported the guests who came to toast one after another. He didn't drink very well, his face was already a little red, and he drank too much, and he felt that the figures around him were shaking a little.Yinzhen helped him to sit down and blocked him a bit, the crowd around the main seat gradually dispersed.Then Yinzhen saw Yinhu from the gap in the crowd.

He was wearing a normal suit, which looked a bit big and baggy, probably because he was tired from running errands these days.Between the brows and eyes, there was a smile overflowing, and her fair cheeks were slightly flushed. I don't know if it was because of the hot weather or drinking too much wine.But those eyes were sparkling.Yinhu was talking to the old fourteenth Yinzhen, as if to give some advice, but Yinzhen sat too far away, so she didn't understand clearly.He stared at the movement of Yinhu's lips motionlessly, and suddenly thought, if he kissed him at this moment, the taste should be wonderful, right?

drunk.

Yinzhen felt that he must be drunk.For more than a year, he had buried that feeling in the deepest part of his heart, and he had almost forgotten it. Now that he thought about it again, Yinzhen couldn't help being a little annoyed at himself.Shaking his head, trying to get rid of this tortured mood, he unexpectedly felt that Yinhu's appearance, Yinhu's smile, Yinhu's every move, seriousness when writing, heroic spirit when drinking, and the moment when he leaped and bent his bow and took an arrow The sassyness is deeply engraved in my mind.For a moment, various scenes of growing up together appeared alternately in front of my eyes, I seemed to feel the warmth of Yinhu's palm on my hands, and it seemed to vaguely recall the fishy and sweet taste between my lips and teeth.Yinzhen stretched out his hand and pinched his leg hard. The pain made him slightly clearer, but the expression on his face became more and more ugly.

"Fourth brother, if you really can't do it, ask Su Peisheng to help you go to the warm pavilion to rest for a while. There is me here, if I fail, there is also mynah." Seeing Yinzhen's complexion is not good, and his eyes are a little blurred, Yinzhen can't help feeling a little bit Worry.

"Ninth brother, fourth brother is very happy today, how can it be so easy to run away? Fourth brother, everyone else has drunk, and you have to drink up with me and fourteenth brother. Only after drinking this drink can you go away " Yinxiang held the wine glass and pulled Yinzhen, and the two came to toast together.

"Old Thirteen, why are you making fun of me? Fourth brother is drunk, so you have to slow down. Thirteenth brother and fourteenth brother, I drank this wine for fourth brother!" Yinzhen always talked about brotherly loyalty, at this time Standing in front of Yinzhen, a glass of wine was filled to the brim, and he was about to finish it, but Yinzhen stretched out his hand to block it.

"Brothers' wine, Xiao Jiu doesn't need to help you." Yinzhen took the wine glass and didn't say much. He raised the wine glass high, then covered it with his sleeve, raised his head, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Fourth brother, have fun!" Although Yinxiang was not big, he raised the cup and was not to be outdone, and poured it down with his neck up.

Seeing that his elder brothers had all drunk, Yinzhen also toasted, and said to Yinzhen: "Fourth brother, I will respect you on behalf of the eighth brother, and on behalf of the eighth brother, let me wish the fourth brother and the fourth sister-in-law a happy marriage for a hundred years!" dry.

"For Yinsi?" Yinzhen's eyes unconsciously drifted to Yinhu's direction again, "Well, fourteenth brother thanked him for me."

"The starling also said that if the fourth brother can't hold on anymore, let's take a rest first, here is the ninth brother to help take care of it, the thirteenth brother and I didn't drink too much, we can still handle the things on the scene. " Yinzhen continued.

"Fourth brother, go and have a rest. Since the mynah said so, he will naturally watch over it for you. You have nothing to worry about in this matter of human relations, with mynah supporting the scene." Yinxiang also answered with a smile.

Yinzhen glanced in Yinhu's direction again, and suddenly found that Yinhu was also looking at him.Yinhu raised his wine glass, gestured with a smile, nodded to Yinzhen, and said two words softly, looking at the shape of his mouth, it seemed to be "rest assured".Yinzhen's heart suddenly warmed up, mixed with the feeling of the wine burning in his belly, it seemed that a fire was ignited in his heart.Yinzhen looked at Yinhu's gaze, which instantly became hot.Yinhu was taken aback for a moment, and immediately came back to his senses, drank a glass with a smile, nodded again in Yinzhen's direction, and said softly, "Congratulations."

Yinzhen didn't understand the last two words.The hot weather made his heart hot as well, and the desire rising in his heart seemed to be irrepressible any longer.The change in body also made Yin Zhen feel ashamed, wishing to disappear in front of everyone immediately.This thought is terrible, it is unethical, and it should never come to mind.Yinzhen hypnotized himself over and over again, but it didn't work very well.The faint smell of blood that didn't exist spread out from the tip of his tongue, his lips seemed to be on fire, and his heart also seemed to be on fire.There was fire in July, but the fire in Yinzhen's heart seemed to never go away.

"I'm going to take a rest, Yinzhen will take care of it for me." Yinzhen finally said something.Frowning into a Sichuan character, Yinzhen hurriedly called Su Peisheng over, and before he could give an order, Su Peisheng came over to support Yinzhen, and asked, "Master Jiu, should we send him to lie down in the Nuan Pavilion, or send him directly to Fujin?"

"Let's take a rest first, the crown prince hasn't come yet, the starling said he has some important business to do today," Yinzhen said impatiently, "When the crown prince comes later, I still have to come out."

Su Peisheng agreed, and was walking back with Yinzhen's support, but a person came to meet him, it was Luanyi envoy Longkodo.

"The fourth elder brother was so happy, why did he run away?" Long Keduo joked.

"Uncle?" Yinzhen stopped in his tracks and nodded his head as a salute, "I drank too much, I really need to rest." Longkodo is the younger brother of the imperial concubine, and Yinzhen always calls him uncle in private.

"The fourth elder brother has retired, what should we do next? Leave it to the ninth elder brother?" Long Kedo smiled lightly, "That's fine, let's rest, the fourth elder brother. The guard who just changed shift said that the prince is still there As for Qing Palace, it will take at least half an hour to come here, Si elder brother wipes his face with hot water, drinks some decoction to relieve hangover, and rests for six or seven quarters before coming out, it will be all right."

"Thank you Uncle. Please ask Uncle to take care of you outside." Yinzhen cupped his hands and saluted.

Longkodo sideways avoided, and responded with a smile.

Yinzhen's wedding ended after the crown prince's grand congratulatory ceremony.After the banquet was over, Yinzhen had already been sent to the bridal chamber, and Yinhu was still outside to help Yinzhen see off the guests.The members of Tong's family, Yinzhen wanted to send them off in person, but Erlundai [1] was drunk and looked cursing.

"Eighth elder brother, it's best for you to come. There are so many elder brothers, I like you the most." Elundai put his hand on Yinhu's shoulder, half of the weight of his whole body was on Yinhu's body.Tong Guowei and Long Kedo watched from the sidelines and smiled helplessly. Long Kedo even stepped forward and said, "Brother Ba, my elder brother is drunk, don't take it for granted."

Yinhu was not unhappy at all. Erlundai was Tong Guogang's eldest son and Kangxi's cousin. He was always arrogant and self-willed. When he got angry, he dared to pat the table with Kangxi, and he dared to solve it on the spot in the Forbidden City after drinking too much alcohol and urinating urgently. host.Such a person, let alone talk to him about etiquette, even if you talk about it, you can't explain it clearly.Yinhu has never been a prince, and he regards himself as a junior to the Tong family. The reason why Erlundai firmly supported him in his previous life has something to do with Yinhu's attitude towards him.

"Where is it? It was at the wedding banquet just now, thanks to Mr. Tong for taking care of me. Yinhu thanked you on behalf of the fourth brother." After speaking, he nodded to Long Keduo, and then reached out to help Erlundai.

Long Kedo was not surprised either, he just stepped forward to meet Erlundai, wanting to take him over from Yinhu.But I didn't want Erlun Dai to wave his hand, push it away, and said in his mouth: "I will ask Ba Ye to help me, third brother don't worry too much. Thank you Ba Ye today. In a few days, I will invite Ba Ye to drink. The third younger brother also came together, haha." Elundai didn't have any concept of princes and foreign ministers in his heart, he just thought that he should drink a few more drinks with whoever was pleasing to the eye, and it was not good for Yinhu to refuse, nor was it good promise.Fortunately, Yinhu was able to handle it well, so he only said ambiguously: "Recently, the Lifan Academy is busy, and I have to go back to the palace at night. It's good for my cousin to treat guests. I'm afraid I have to report to Khan Ama first if I want to drink."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll talk to Long Live Lord tomorrow." Orondai responded quickly.Yinhu didn't talk much, but felt that Orondai was very drunk at this time, and he might forget about it tomorrow.

Tong Guowei watched from a few steps away, smiled, called Long Kedo to come over, nodded to Yinhu, and went first.Elundai also said vaguely: "Uncle, go slowly, my nephew will not see you off!" He stretched out his arms and waved vigorously, almost bringing Yinhu down.

Yinhu smiled wryly and supported Orondai, thinking in his heart, it would be fine if he wasn't so drunk.When going out next year, Orondai will be in charge of the Firearms Battalion, and before Yinhu sets off, he will try to entrust Dai Zi to him.Right now, I can only hope that Orondai can still remember that I owe him a drink.

Yinzhen didn't sleep well all night.This was his wedding night, and the bride was a gentle girl, shy but beautiful.This is his Fujin, the woman who will accompany him for the rest of his life.But what Yinzhen was thinking about was that Yinhu who greeted him with a faint smile and toasted him from a distance.Yinzhen imagined Yinhu's body, his fingers, his eyes, his lips.His kiss fell on the woman who would share honor and disgrace with him, but he couldn't help but kept thinking about his brother.

The thoughts of that time when he was young are once again flooding his mind, only Yinhu can understand him, only Yinhu can understand him, only Yinhu can stand side by side with him.Yinzhen tossed his Fujin like crazy, his self-control completely collapsed under the influence of alcohol, if it wasn't for the last sliver of reason left, maybe he would have thought about that in his heart countless times at the last moment Pronounce the name all over the place.

Yinzhen tossed and tossed until Yinshi, and then he woke up a little, let Fujin fall asleep, and drank a cup of refreshment tea by himself.This tea is Yunnan tribute tea sent by Yinhu.Yinzhen sighed, put on his clothes, and went back to the study lightly, staring at the four big characters "势急急运忍" for exactly an hour before resting in the study.

Yinzhen didn't know that in Ganxitou, Yinhu also had a sleepless night.

The author has something to say:

【1】Elundai children's shoes are a wonderful flower.He is the son of Tong Guogang, who succeeded Tong Tulai, the first-class duke of Kangxi's grandfather, and Kangxi's uncle.Rumor has it that he has a very bad temper, and he doesn't even buy Kangxi's account.This Erlundai has the same personality as his father, the two were incompatible, and Tong Guogang once asked Kangxi for an order to kill Erlundai.

This person is a staunch Eight Lord Party member, so he was persecuted by Yongzheng later. I like his character very much. He actually urinates anywhere in the Forbidden City! ! !

Another: Erlundai and Longkodo are cousins, so it should be okay to call them Big Brother or Third Brother.
