Chapter 513: The waxing and waning of the moon, joys and sorrows (Part 2)
Finally.
Amid the worried yet relieved looks of Liang Zhen and others, Wei Changtian still appeared beside Liang Qin on time.
Then comes the more complicated wedding ceremony process.
Walking on the red carpet, burning incense to worship ancestors, kneeling three times, kowtow nine times, and bowing six times During the whole process, Wei Changtian had a smile on his face, but anyone could see that the smile was a bit forced.
Wei Changtian didn't know why he made that decision just now.
After all, if he considers it from an absolutely rational point of view, he should not let Li Wutong leave even if he had to watch him die in front of his eyes.
But Wei Changtian couldn't be so cold-blooded.
And he was really feeling very upset at that time.
He was annoyed by the difficulties Ning Yongnian created for him, and also by Li Wutong's "stupidity".
To be honest, Wei Changtian could understand Li Wutong.
But he really had no choice.
If Li Wutong is not allowed to try, the latter will never give up.
In that case, let her go. Maybe it's an impulse after feeling deeply exhausted, or maybe it's a compromise made out of helplessness.
When Wei Changtian and Liang Qin completed their last bow facing east, he still sighed softly.
He suddenly remembered the woman with long fluttering hair standing in the sunset when he left Fengyuan several months ago.
He still remembers the rosy glow that flowed into the sky that day, which was as bright and beautiful as it is today.
"Young Master!"
"When we meet again, marry me!"
"You promised me!"
“.”
He reached out to help the bride in front of him up, then turned his head to look at the red clouds in the sky.
The sky is full of rosy clouds, scorching the dusk.
It looks like the blushing face of a girl and also like the flowers blooming on the tree. At this sunset, it melts countless joys and loneliness, reunions and partings in the world.
The hour of Xu.
As the moon rose high in the sky, big red lanterns were hung all over Shuzhou City.
While Wei Changtian was toasting with his guests, Zhang San quietly ran over and reported in a low voice: "Sir, Princess Wuping just left the city."
"Um."
Wei Changtian nodded without changing his expression at all.
He poured himself another glass of wine, then smiled and clinked glasses with You Wenzon.
"You Xiang! I toast you a glass!"
"You are too polite, sir. It should be me who respects you."
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter who respects whom!"
"Yes, sir, drink slowly."
“.”
After paying respects to You Wenzong, I also pay respects to Chen Zhong.
Holding the wine glass, Wei Changtian toasted all the "bigwigs" of Shu Kingdom one by one, but did not say a word to Zhang San behind him.
At first, Zhang San thought that he had not yet made up his mind how to deal with Li Wutong, so he followed behind silently.
But just when Wei Changtian finished toasting at one table and ran straight to another table of "Outstanding Business Representatives of Shu Kingdom" with the wine jug, he suddenly stopped and finally understood Wei Changtian's attitude.
He turned and walked out of the bustling front yard, rounded the corner, and stopped in front of a man in black.
"Brother Zhang, what did the Master order?"
The man in black whispered to Zhang San: "If you still need to keep an eye on it, I will send more people."
"No."
Shaking his head, Zhang San calmly replied: "Let all the brothers come back."
"Ah? You don't want to follow me anymore?"
"Well, you don't have to follow."
“.”
The hour of Hai.
It was late at night, but the bustle of Shuzhou City did not diminish in the slightest.
Fire trees and silver flowers are blooming, and the iron locks of the star bridge are opened.
The orange-red fireworks with long tails rushed into the night sky, and also brought the joy of the world to the sky.
The sound of firecrackers could be heard everywhere in the streets and markets. Naughty children were chasing each other with lanterns in their hands. Girls had colorful flowers tied in their hair. People who met on the streets all smiled and bowed to congratulate each other.
Just as the lively scene in the city reached its peak, Wei Changtian slowly removed the red veil that Liang Qin had been wearing all day.
None of my concubines wear veils, so this is his first time.
Under the veil is a rosy little face, with a phoenix coronet and a bridal robe, and tassels and hanging tassels.
Liang Qin never wears makeup on weekdays, so Wei Changtian could hardly recognize her after she put on makeup today.
"Brother Changtian, why are you staring at me?"
Liang Qin only grasped the corner of the red skirt with her fingers and lowered her head shyly.
"It's not like you haven't seen me before."
"Well, this is the first time I've seen this."
Wei Changtian smiled and sat down beside the bed, exclaiming sincerely: "It's really beautiful."
“Is that so?”
Liang Qin lowered her head even more after being praised by Wei Changtian.
She hesitated for a long time, and then asked in a low voice: "Brother Changtian, should I call you husband from now on?"
"Hahaha, whatever you want to call me."
"Then, can I still call you Brother Changtian?"
"Of course."
"Chang, Chang Tian Ge"
"What's wrong?"
“It’s time for us to get married.”
"Hair knot? Oh, yes, yes."
Wei Changtian slapped his forehead, then he remembered the process after entering the bridal chamber that Comrade Xiao Xu had repeatedly reminded him of yesterday.
First they tie the knot, then they drink the wedding wine, then they throw the cups, and then they can do that thing Picking up the scissors tied with red silk that had been prepared beside him, Wei Changtian first cut off a lock of Liang Qin's long hair, and then handed the scissors to Liang Qin, who then cut off a lock of her own hair.
When two strands of hair are twisted together, it is called "knotting hair".
“Crash~”
Watching Liang Qin carefully put the two people's hair into a small silk bag and tie it up, Wei Changtian smiled and took the wine jug and poured two glasses of wine.
The transparent wine swirled in the glass, with a soft aroma.
The two of them raised their glasses and looked at each other.
But the next moment, Liang Qin suddenly hesitated and whispered:
"Brother Changtian, are you worried about something?"
"Um?"
Wei Changtian thought he had been pretending to be good, but he never expected that Liang Qin still saw through his abnormality.
"It's okay, don't think too much."
"oh"
Liang Qin nodded slightly and clinked her glass with Wei Changtian.
The wine in the cup goes down the throat, and the cup is thrown under the bed, which is said to be a good omen.
At this point, all the processes for today have finally been completed.
The red wedding curtain was closed, and Liang Qin trembled slightly as she took off her Xiuhe dress piece by piece.
It was not until then that Wei Changtian noticed that she was still wearing the wooden hairpin in her hair.
Just as he was staring at the wooden hairpin in a daze, an extremely gentle and happy voice suddenly rang out.
"Brother Changtian"
"I, I'm so happy."
Outside Shuzhou City, on the official road.
"Whoa!"
"Bang!"
When Li Wutong suddenly tightened the reins and the horse under him raised its front hooves high, a huge firework happened to explode in the sky above Shuzhou City behind him.
Then came the second and third flowers. The golden flames lit up and went out, passing in an instant, as brief and brilliant as a flash of lightning.
Staring at the brilliant fireworks, Li Wutong's body shook.
She tried hard to hold back her tears, but the next moment they burst out of her eyes uncontrollably.
“Woo woo woo!”
“Woo woo woo!”
"Why, why?"
"Why!!"
The heart-wrenching cry was hoarse, and seemed to be mixed with endless pain.
Li Wutong knew that after she left this time, she might never have the chance to see Wei Changtian again in this life.
But she had to go.
This crying that no one could hear was her final farewell to Wei Changtian.
Since ancient times, being affectionate has only brought empty regrets, and good dreams are the easiest to wake up from.
This was the poem Wei Changtian once used to persuade her.
But at this moment Li Wutong hoped very much that she would stay in the sweet dream forever and hoped very much that nothing had happened.
She would even rather have never met Wei Changtian than suffer such torture that is worse than death.
But, the beautiful dream will eventually end.
"Bang!!"
Another firework bloomed, and the remaining light fell, flickering and fading away.
Wiping away the last tear from the corner of her eyes, Li Wutong, who had no more tears to shed, never looked back.
A white moon is in the sky, casting silver light all over the ground.
Last night the west wind blew strongly at the Wutong tree, the moon was dim and bright, my good dreams were disturbed, and I heard the cry of wild geese from a tall building somewhere.
“Don’t worry.”
"Husband."
