Time passed by, and it was the ninth day of May in a blink of an eye.

On the ninth day of May, it is appropriate to get married.

Today is a great day for King Zhao to marry his concubine.

The palace was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the sound of drums and music played the song of harmony between dragon and phoenix.

The sky was bright, and the two vermilion front gates of King Zhao's mansion opened to the east, accompanied by the sound of firecrackers piercing the sky, welcoming the mistress who was about to enter in a high-profile way.

The brass ring on the main gate shines brightly in the sun, and even the two majestic stone lions at the gate have been cleaned and refreshed by the servants of the mansion, and there are two red silk happy flowers on their chests. , looking beaming.

It is said that people are in high spirits on happy occasions, and Wanyan Honglie almost never closed his eyes all night.

Just after the third watch, he changed into the fiery red wedding dress early, and waited for the auspicious time calculated by Qin Tianjian to go to greet his relatives.

The closer it was to the auspicious time to meet the relatives, the more nervous he seemed, circling around like a headless chicken, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Seeing this, the chief envoy couldn't help raising the importance of the princess again and again in his heart.

Firecrackers rang nine times, and the master of ceremonies outside the door shouted loudly: "The auspicious time has come to welcome the bride!"

Wanyan Honglie suddenly stopped his wandering steps and turned around. Without paying attention, he kicked his foot heavily on the threshold, causing him to grin his teeth in pain, but as soon as the pain showed on his face, he was wiped away by the joy from the corners of his eyes and brows. .

"My lord, please get on the horse." The master of ceremonies led a jujube horse with red flowers on its chest.

Wanyan Honglie quickly got on his horse and looked down at the passing crowd, his face flushed with pride.

"drive."

He tugged at the reins and kicked the horse lightly on the belly.The red date started to walk slowly with its hooves clattering.

The long wedding reception team behind them meanders around the city like a dragon.Along the way, gongs and drums were beaten, and suona blew the phoenix song of welcoming relatives, and the people on both sides of the road were full of onlookers.

At three o'clock in the morning, the welcoming team finally stopped at the gate of a three-entry house at the entrance of Wuyi Lane.

"The groom knocks on the door to receive the kiss!"

Wanyan Honglie jumped off the horse, straightened the skirt of the wedding dress, and with Gao Sheng sung by the master of ceremonies, stretched out his foot and gently kicked the door.

After kicking three times in a row, the courtyard door was closed like a clamshell.

The cold wind blew past, and the two lanterns hanging by the door flew high, swaying in the wind, and the courtyard was dead silent, and there was no sound.

The master of ceremonies looked slightly stunned, and sang again: "The groom has arrived! Knock on the door to welcome the bride!"

Quiet.

It was so quiet that you could almost hear the sound of a needle falling to the ground.

"My lord, this..." The emcee showed some astonishment, he looked at Wanyan Honglie in embarrassment.

Sing again: "The bridegroom has arrived! Knock on the door to welcome the bride!"

Wanyan Honglie suddenly felt strong and uneasy, he didn't care about other things, and kicked the door eagerly.

"Knock down."

After three beeps, there is still no one answering in the courtyard gate.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

The onlookers whispered to each other, faint whispers could be heard, even though they couldn't hear what they were saying clearly, Wanyan Honglie felt extremely embarrassed, his heart seemed to have fallen to the bottom of the valley, and the coldness came over him.

What about the weak?How could she not respond?

Do you want to regret your marriage?

He endured and endured, but thinking of this, he couldn't bear it anymore.Anxiously, he mobilized his inner strength with his hands and lowered his strength slightly.There was only a "click", and the latch on the back of the door loosened and fell to the ground, Wanyan Honglie pushed the door open and entered.

"See Your Majesty!"

The trembling servant woman guarding the door immediately knelt down and saluted, fearing that she would be punished.

Wanyan Honglie looked around for a week, and shouted sharply, "Where's Xiwei?"

"Princess...Princess is in the courtyard."

The servant woman replied tremblingly, and her intermittent words showed that she was quite frightened.

Wanyan Honglie immediately hurried through the arches of the outer courtyard.

Before entering the main courtyard, she could hear the servant girl slapping on the door and hastily persuading her from a distance. There was a hint of sobbing in her anxious tone, and she almost cried on the spot.

"Princess, the auspicious time has come, it's time to get on the sedan chair!"

"Princess, the prince is here to greet the bride, come out quickly! It will be bad if you miss the auspicious time!"

"Princess...Princess...servants, please..."

There was no movement at all inside the door, and the servant girl was circling around like ants on a hot pot.

"My lord!"

Seeing Wanyan Honglie's hasty figure, the sharp-eyed servant girl was immediately frightened and collapsed to the ground.

Wanyan Honglie didn't dwell on this, and walked to the door in three steps at a time, patted on the door and shouted: "Xi Wei! Open the door quickly! This king is here!"

A gentle voice came from inside the door for a long time.

"My lord, good girls don't marry second husbands. I can't thank you enough for your kindness. I can only repay you as a cow or a horse in the next life. I don't dare to climb up to the king's house because of my weak widow. I also ask the lord to find another lover."

Wanyan Honglie's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he said angrily: "Why find another lover and just say it? You are the king's lover!"

On the day they got married, they said they would not get married, which really gave him a lot of embarrassment.But in the end it was the person he fell in love with, Wanyan Honglie tried his best not to attack, he glanced at the shivering servant girl with scruples, and sternly shouted: "Get out!"

"Yes." The maids saluted as if they were being pardoned, and retreated quickly.

Wanyan Honglie turned back to the door and coaxed in a low voice: "Xi Wei, didn't we agree? The world is chaotic. If you are a penniless and weak woman without a man to rely on, how can you give birth to a child safely? What will you do?" Raise the children in the mansion to grow up?"

"This king swears that after marrying you as his wife, he will treat you like pearls and treasures, and he will treat you like a treasure in this life. He will also treat your children as his own. Isn't that enough? Think about your future life, think about your belly Unborn flesh and blood..."

There was a moment of silence in the room, and Bao Xiruo's hesitant voice sounded again: "But, how can I betray my husband and marry someone else? Wouldn't that be against the virtue of being a nun?"

Bao Xiruo was born in a scholarly family and was trained since she was a child. Women do not marry second husbands, and husbands stick to chastity. Although she agreed to marry Wanyan Honglie, it was an expedient measure for the sake of her children, but the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. guilt.

She has been in love with Yang Tiexin for several years, and the relationship between husband and wife is extraordinary, but she can't even keep the chastity. Yang Tiexin will marry someone else within a few months after his death, and after thinking about it, she can't help but have the idea of ​​regretting the marriage.

She also knows that it is not a good thing to regret the marriage at this time, but the heart of love has never been controlled by others.

"What's more, my ex-husband and I have a deep affection, and it is hard to forget in my weak heart. How can I marry my lord with my love for my ex-husband? I will not only lose my loyalty to my ex-husband, but also feel ashamed of my filial piety towards my lord. Heart. This marriage, why not let it go. "

"It's a pity that you are weak..."

Wanyan Honglie's anger came from it, although he was quite annoyed with Bao Xiruo, but he hated Yang Tiexin even more when he was dead. Back to solution hate!

"Now that the arrow is on the string, you want to regret your marriage? Pity, how do you let this king deal with himself? This king treats you with sincerity, can't he be compared to a mountain villager?"

"Xi Wei, you have always been kind-hearted and soft-hearted, and even if you can't bear to see rabbits get hurt, how can you be so cruel as to trample under your feet the piece of sincerity that this king personally held in your hands? How cruel are you to this king?"

"This..." Bao Xi said weakly.

There was a long silence.

"Marry, I will marry."

After a long time, Bao Xiruo spoke again.

"However, I have a request."

Wanyan Honglie's ecstatic expression hadn't surfaced yet, but he was stiffened and resentful by what she said next.

"My lord, this marriage between you and me is a matter of rights and interests. For the sake of Kang'er, I will marry. It's just that the dead husband is the only one in my weak heart, and I can't tolerate anyone anymore. Please let the lord know about this."

"Also, I want the lord to rebuild my husband and I's residence in the royal mansion, so that Xi Ruo can always cherish the memory of my husband. After marriage, the lord and I respect each other as guests, only in the name of husband and wife, but not in reality. If the prince agrees to this matter, Xi Ruo will step into the sedan chair with you to enter the palace today. Otherwise, Xi Ruo will die without marrying!"

"..."

Wanyan Honglie's eyes were full of violent storms. Such conditions almost put his dignity down and stomped back and forth, causing his heart to ache, and his emotions were on the verge of losing control several times.

What a Bao Xiwei!

How dare she?

How dare she step on his bottom line and extinguish his enthusiasm time and time again, leaving his sincerity like a shoe!

Hatred to the extreme, annoyed to the extreme, Wanyan Honglie finally held back the emotion of provoking the teacher.

What a proud man he was, but the wife he wanted to marry only wanted to have a title with him and was ruthless, clinging to him to miss her husband and support her posthumous child.

"Okay. This king agrees to this matter!"

But in the end he choked back the humiliation.

Is it the love that goes deep into the bone marrow?Or is he not reconciled to the fact that he is not as popular with women as a nobleman?Or, from the moment Bao Xiruo saved his life, the idea of ​​wanting to spend the rest of his life with her became an indelible obsession in his life?

Even Wanyan Honglie didn't know how he could bear this shame.

"Squeak-"

The door was opened from the inside, and Bao Xiruo stood at the door, dressed in snow white, with a white flower in her hair.The breeze was blowing head-on, and the sleeves of her clothes were fluttering, Bao Xiruo was as beautiful as a delicate flower crumbling in the cold wind, it was heart-wrenching.

On the big day, but in a new funeral attire, whose face is this slapping?

If it was normal, Wanyan Honglie would feel so distressed that he would have to take off his clothes and cover her up.However, at this moment, his eyes hurt from the stimulation of Bao Xiruo's filial piety.

Wanyan Honglie's enthusiasm was extinguished, his whole body seemed to have sunk into a millennium cold pool, and the blood in his whole body froze into ice in an instant, but the raging and hot anger welled up in his heart like magma.Ice and fire met, repeatedly roasted and frozen, Wanyan Honglie was in pain so much that his whole heart was clenched into a ball.

Hatred and annoyance filled his heart, his heart was full of coldness, Wanyan Honglie didn't have time to care about whether Bao Xiruo was cold, he just shouted: "Come on! Hurry up and change the princess's clothes! If you miss the auspicious time , this king has peeled off your skins!"

Immediately, a servant girl shivered and rushed forward, surrounded Bao Xiruo and entered the door to change her clothes.
