Chapter 337 Wedding
The bright red brocade dress was embroidered with a lot of gold thread, and the phoenix embroidered on it was shining with golden light, as if it was about to spread its wings and fly...
The crown on her head is made of pure gold inlaid with pearls, gems and kingfisher feathers, and it sparkles under the light.
In order to make it less heavy, the craftsmen worked hard on the filigree and linework techniques... just to make it beautiful and light.
But even so, it still weighs more than three kilograms, which makes people's necks sore.
The makeup is much heavier than Xiao Yingchun's daily makeup, and it adds a bit of solemnity!
Thinking of the famous queen coronation scene in the movie, Xiao Yingchun stood in front of the floor-length mirror and slowly folded her hands in front of her.
He has an upright posture and a dignified look.
The maids and palace maids nearby knelt down on their own initiative: "Greetings to the Crown Princess!"
Xiao Yingchun felt a numbness on the back of his head, and he tried to keep his voice steady as he shouted, "Get up..."
When the nanny led Xiao Yingchun to the front hall, Fu Chenan was already waiting there.
He was wearing a bright red suit embroidered with golden dragons, and his golden crown and jade belt sparkled. When he saw Xiao Yingchun, a look of amazement flashed across his eyes.
Fu Chenan took a few quick steps, came over, took Xiao Yingchun's hand, and whispered in her ear.
"Yingying, you look so beautiful today!"
Xiao Yingchun looked at him with a smile: "You look very good today too."
Fu Chenan chuckled: "Does it match you?"
With this smile, the prince's dignity was gone, and he became Fu Chenan again, with a simple and honest face and a little bit of complacency.
Xiao Yingchun laughed and pulled his hand, then turned around and asked the official from the Ministry of Rites who was following him: "What should we do next?"
Official from the Ministry of Rites: "The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess must first pay respect to the Emperor, then pay homage to their ancestors, and then meet the civil and military officials..."
Fu Chenan pulled Xiao Yingchun: "Let's go!"
Today, Fu Zhonghai was also wearing a bright red emperor's dragon robe, which made him look more solemn than usual.
When he saw Fu Chenan and Xiao Yingchun coming over, a smile flashed across his eyes.
Kneel down, kowtow, serve tea, change your words...
Emperor Tianwu placed two gold-inlaid jade ruyi in the hands of Xiao Yingchun and Fu Chenan: "Good son and good wife, may you have a son soon!"
After a pause, he couldn't help but add: "Give birth to more children!"
Fu Chenan:!!!
He looked at Xiao Yingchun cautiously, and saw that Xiao Yingchun didn't react at all, but instead kowtowed and said "OK", which made him feel relieved.
I hope Yingying is not angry.
But he didn't know that Xiao Yingchun was not serious at all.
How many children to have is your own business. How can your father-in-law interfere?
In my time, it was very easy to use contraceptive methods. There were many physical and chemical methods.
Let’s first see whether these two are easy to lead or not.
If it’s difficult to raise a child, I’d never have a second child!
After paying homage to Emperor Tianwu, Emperor Tianwu led the Crown Prince and Crown Princess to pay homage to the ancestral tablets.
The founding emperors of every dynasty, once they gained control of the world, would often confer the title of emperor on their deceased father, grandfather, and several generations before them.
But Emperor Tianwu Fu Zhonghai didn't dare.
He was afraid that his loyal and patriotic father and grandfather would crawl out from underground and beat him up.
So his father and grandfather are still listed as the Grand Marshal of the Army...
Kneeling in front of the ancestral tablet, Fu Zhonghai kowtowed to apologize: "Dad, I brought your grandson and granddaughter-in-law to see you..."
After mumbling for a while, all of it was about family matters, Xiao Yingchun once again felt Fu Zhonghai's inner guilt and helplessness.
Faced with the suspicion and embarrassment of the previous emperor, he had no choice but to rise up in rebellion and proclaim himself emperor.
However, he threw away half of the ancestral motto "loyalty to the emperor and patriotism" that had been passed down by his ancestors.
He was willing to devote his heart and soul to the people of this country, but he was unwilling to be tortured by that tyrant.
Recently, he also listened to the teacher's interpretation of scriptures on the tablet computer prepared for him by Fu Chenan, and his interpretation was very thought-provoking.
"The people are the most important, the country is second, and the king is the least important."
"Dad, Grandpa, the late emperor was a tyrant who treated the people of the world as pigs and sheep, exploiting and slaughtering them at will. I can't stand it!"
"I can suffer, but I don't want my son to suffer for the rest of his life."
"I also don't want the people of Stone Lane and the millions of people in the world to be unable to live..."
“I want to give people a better life.”
"Dad! Grandpa! You must forgive me..."
Fu Chenan couldn't help but cough in the back: Dad, I'm getting married! Are you off topic?
Emperor Tianwu knelt motionlessly and continued to chatter: "Dad, Grandpa, this is An'er's daughter-in-law. An'er is getting married today."
"She is also the one who brings good life to the people of Tianwu Dynasty. She is the lucky star of our Tianwu Dynasty and also the lucky star of An'er and me..."
"From now on, you must protect her and her offspring, and keep them safe and healthy, free from illness and disaster..."
"You must also protect her and An'er to live in harmony for a hundred years without quarreling or arguing!"
"An'er said that he only has one daughter-in-law in this life, so you must protect them well..."
Now Fu Chenan was no longer embarrassed to urge his father.
Emperor Tianwu finally stood up. The newlyweds burned incense and kowtowed to their ancestors. Then they joined hands and followed their father out to accept the worship of civil and military officials!
As the future crown prince of Tianwu Kingdom, the wedding represents the beginning of the stage of expanding the family.
All officials congratulate.
When Xiao Yingchun and Fu Chenan walked out of the Golden Palace hand in hand, all the civil and military officials and imperial guards who had been waiting in the square knelt down in unison.
The uniform voices of congratulations rose to the sky: "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! Greetings to the Crown Princess!"
"I wish His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess a happy marriage! May you have a son soon..."
This slogan was specifically requested by the emperor.
With so many people shouting out in unison, the effect was astonishing!
On the side, a drone soared into the sky, flew over the square, and captured the entire scene...
Fu Chenan looked at the people who were prostrating themselves on the ground in the square with excitement. Feeling the warmth in his hands, he suppressed his excitement and said loudly, "Everyone, please stand up!"
…
After meeting all the officials, Fu Chenan and Xiao Yingchun returned to the East Palace. The new room had already been decorated and was a warm red.
The wedding wine, auspicious words... After the whole set of ceremonies, Xiao Yingchun was helped to change into light clothes, and the bridesmaids, maids and palace maids all left.
Fu Chenan also had to go to the front court to offer a glass of wine to all the civil and military officials, and specifically instructed the palace servants to prepare a full table of food for Xiao Yingchun.
"Yingying, you take a rest first. I'll be back when I'm done with my work." Fu Chenan's eyes were strained as he looked at his newly-wed wife. He was reluctant to leave!
However, the banquet from the previous dynasty had already begun, and as the crown prince, he had to attend.
Xiao Yingchun was not reluctant to leave: "You go, I will take good care of myself."
She ate with chopsticks and relished the meal. The palace servants beside her had all served Xiao Yingchun and the prince before, and their eyes were full of good humor!
They stood by and served Xiao Yingchun dishes without saying a word. Wherever Xiao Yingchun looked, their chopsticks would land precisely on that dish and pick up a piece for Xiao Yingchun...
When Fu Chenan came back after toasting, Xiao Yingchun had already eaten and drunk his fill, washed up, and was sleeping like a pig.
The palace maid guarding the door indicated that Xiao Yingchun had gone to bed. Fu Chenan waved his hand for them to leave and tiptoed into the bedroom.
The palace servants suppressed their shock and quietly retreated.
From ancient times to the present, I have never heard of any princess who dares to take a nap on the wedding day without waiting for the prince to come back!
But the prince didn't mind at all. Not only did he tell them not to wait outside the door, he even tiptoed into the room himself.
Fu Chenan first took off his cold coat at the door, washed his hands and rinsed his mouth before going in.
