Chapter 438 Chinese Wedding



Just before dawn, Li Yun was woken up by a maid and had her hair combed by a nanny sent from the palace.

This nanny was a highly respected person. She was the nanny who served the empress dowager and also combed her hair when she got married.

She put on the phoenix robe, sat at the dressing table, and let the old nanny comb her hair.

The old nanny took the glass comb and said as she combed her hair: "Combing your hair thoroughly, your love will last till old age!"

"Comb your hair twice to the end, and you will live a life of wealth and glory!"

"Comb your hair three times to the end, and you will have many children, happiness and a long life!"

"Comb from beginning to end, and disasters and diseases will stay away forever!"

After the old nanny finished combing her hair, Qin Lanlan gave her fifty taels and sent her out.

The old nanny also returned to the palace to report to the Queen Mother.

At this time, in the palace.

After Shangguan Feiyun got up, the eunuch helped him put on the dragon robe and followed the emperor to the ancestral temple to worship.

After burning incense to the ancestors and kneeling down to pay homage, they followed the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel to the Fengtian Hall, where all the civil and military officials were already there.

The ceremonial officer came forward and led the emperor through the procedures, then read the imperial edict, and the ministers knelt below.

Shangguan Feiyun burned incense, worshipped heaven and earth, and then returned to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The civil and military officials followed him back to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Shangguan Feiyun sat on the throne, and Eunuch Shen said, "Kneel!"

All civil and military officials kneel before the emperor!

"Kneel again!"

Civil and military officials knelt again!

“Kneel three times!”

"All civil and military officials kneel and kowtow for the third time!"

"I ascend the throne today, and peace reigns supreme throughout the land, sharing joy with the people! I will exercise self-discipline and diligence, govern diligently and cherish the people, and strive for a prosperous and peaceful world. I will bring the hearts of all people together, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment. I will bring prosperity and prosperity to the country, and bring everyone a peaceful and prosperous era."

"Appoint Princess Jiahui as the Queen, and let her rule the country with me.

Chen Chaoyilang was made Duke of Anguo and was granted a Duke's Mansion.

Chen Wen is the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, and the title has been passed down from generation to generation.

Chen Wu was granted the title of Marquis of Wuyong and a mansion, which was passed down from generation to generation.

Chen Fang was named Princess Yifang and was given a princess mansion.

Chen Xiaohua was made the Princess of Wenning County and was granted a County Princess's Mansion.

Qin Lanlan was a first-rank imperial lady.

The Duke of Zhenguo was made the father-in-law of the emperor, and was given a thousand taels of gold and ten thousand taels of silver. Shangguan Feiyun bestowed titles on Li Yun's children, and also gave the third and fifth princes the titles of King of Wei and King of Liang.

The third prince, King Wei, was granted land in Jingzhou.

The fifth prince, Prince Liang, was granted fiefdom in Xuzhou.

"The Emperor is benevolent, filial, and virtuous, and he brings blessings to all the people!"

"Long live our emperor!"

All civil and military officials spoke in unison.

After the morning court session, Shangguan Feiyun led the wedding procession to pick up the queen.

The wedding procession set out from the imperial palace, consisting of 200 people, with 100 musicians playing music on both sides.

When more than 300 people were walking on the streets of the capital, people from both sides came out to watch the fun.

Today is the day of the Emperor and Empress’ wedding.

Shangguan Feiyun brought his team to the Princess's Mansion. The doorman heard the music and went in to inform Chen Mo and Qin Lanlan.

Qin Lanlan asked the maid to cover Li Yun with a veil and wait for the emperor to come and pick her up.

Normally, the emperor would not come to pick up the queen. Instead, the Ministry of Rites would bring people to greet her, and the emperor would wait in the palace.

But Shangguan Feiyun did not follow the rules. The queen was the apple of his eye, so how could he let her enter the palace alone?

The wedding procession stopped at the princess's mansion. Shangguan Feiyun dismounted, walked into the princess's mansion, and went directly to Li Yun's room.

The journey was smooth and no one dared to cause trouble.

This is the emperor. Who would think his life is too long and come out to seek death?

When I came into the room, I saw Yun'er wearing a phoenix crown and a red robe. She was so beautiful that I couldn't take my eyes off her.

After calming down, Shangguan Feiyun helped Li Yun put on her shoes and carried her out, leaving everyone in the room stunned.

After gently placing her in the bridal sedan, Shangguan Feiyun mounted his horse and took Li Yun on a tour of the capital.

Following behind were people from the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Observatory, guards, ceremonial guards, and Li Yun's dowry.

One hundred and thirty-two bearers of the trousseau, and two hundred and sixty-four men carried it.

It’s more than ten miles, maybe even twenty miles.

When the people saw such a spectacular procession and so much dowry, they couldn't help but stick out their tongues. It was really too luxurious!

This should be the largest and most spectacular wedding procession since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and also the one with the most dowry.

Twenty miles of red wedding dress, what does this mean? Traditionally, queens have had a ten-mile red wedding dress.

Shangguan Feiyun took Li Yun to follow the Imperial Observatory and the Ministry of Rites according to the procedures. When they reached the last step of the wedding ceremony, Li Yun was already exhausted.

"Bow to heaven and earth!" said the eulogy officer.

Shangguan Feiyun and Li Yun held each other's hands and knelt down towards the southeast.

"Bow to your parents twice!"

Shangguan Feiyun and Li Yun knelt down to pay homage to the Empress Dowager, the Retired Emperor, and the Empress Dowager who were sitting above.

"Husband and wife bow to each other!"

Shangguan Feiyun and Li Yun faced each other and bowed at the same time, almost bumping into each other.

"Send her to the bridal chamber!"

"The ceremony is over!"

After the eulogist finished speaking, Shangguan Feiyun helped Li Yun to the bridal chamber, and no one dared to follow.

The retired emperor asked people to go to Baohedian for the banquet, and he also took the empress dowager and the grand empress dowager to Baohedian.

Shangguan Feiyun took Li Yun to the Fengyi Hall of Kunyi Palace, where the bedroom belonged to Li Yun.

The Empress Dowager has moved out of Kunyi Palace and moved to Ningshou Palace to live with the Emperor.

He put Li Yun on the phoenix bed, used the wedding pole to lift the bridal veil, and looked at the beautiful Yun'er, and couldn't help but roll his Adam's apple.

"Your Majesty, please help me take off the crown. It is too heavy." Li Yun sat on the bed and took a deep breath. The crown on her head was too heavy and her neck was about to be crooked.

"Queen, wait a moment. After we finish drinking the wedding wine, I will help you get over it." The emperor said with heartache.

After that, he brought two glasses of wine on the stage, gave one to Li Yun, then walked around Li Yun's hands and hips and said to her, "Queen, you are pregnant, it is not appropriate to drink, just lick it gently!"

Li Yun of course agreed, and he and the emperor bent their heads together and licked a little of the wine gently, while the emperor drank it all in one glass.

After drinking the wedding wine, the emperor carefully helped Li Yun take off his headdress. Li Yun felt relaxed and twisted his neck to relieve the pain.

"Master, the heaven and the system have sent you a big gift, please accept it." Doraemon's voice suddenly sounded.

"Doraemon, what gift?" Li Yun asked curiously.

"Master, this is it!" Doraemon said, and took the phone out of the space.

"Isn't this my phone? Could it be that the system and the Heavenly Dao have sent some medicine or something is now on many websites?" Li Yun asked Doraemon while holding the phone.

If it was medicine or transportation, she didn't think it was a big gift at all.

“No, you can use WeChat.

"The Heavenly Dao and the system have rewarded you with the ability to use WeChat video to talk to your modern family for only 20 minutes, and only once," Doraemon said happily to Li Yun.

"What? Really? I can video chat with my family? Please thank the heaven and the system for me. I'm grateful for your kindness. I will do more good deeds in the future." Li Yun was so happy that she almost screamed. Fortunately, Shangguan Feiyun covered her mouth, otherwise it would attract the palace maids and nannies.

"The system also rewards you by giving these three antiques, one thousand taels of gold and one thousand taels of silver to your family far away in modern times. This is a reward for the good things you have done for the people of Dajin, allowing them to live and work in peace and contentment." Doraemon once again said a big surprise.
