Chapter 513: The Years Are Quiet, Everything Is Stable in the Present World
The wedding day was an unprecedented occasion of prosperity.
In Changning Palace, palace servants were busy shuttling back and forth, and the air was filled with joy.
Miaomiao sat upright in front of the diamond-shaped mirror, allowing the best dressing nanny in the palace to put the heavy phoenix crown on her head.
The crown is surrounded by pearls and jade, with a golden phoenix holding a precious pearl in its mouth in the middle.
It has hanging golden tassels, which are extremely gorgeous.
The girl in the mirror has eyebrows as dark as distant ink and eyes as clear as autumn water.
Although her cheeks are thinner than before, her skin looks more radiant and her features are more delicate.
Her cherry lips were dotted with bright rouge, and when they were slightly pursed, a smile mixed with shyness and sweetness appeared on her face.
The bright red wedding dress with gold embroidered phoenix made her look elegant and noble, with the air of a royal family.
"Your Highness is truly beautiful today."
Tang Bao couldn't help but admire her while adjusting the tassels on her skirt.
The eye circles were slightly red.
Tang Hua also sniffed and agreed with a smile.
"Yes, Master Cui will definitely be unable to take his eyes off it when he sees it."
When Miaomiao heard this, her cheeks turned even redder and she glanced at them in reproach.
But my heart is as sweet as if it were soaked in honey.
Thinking of her brother Huailin, she no longer felt aggrieved or uneasy.
There is only full of steadiness and expectation.
He had already told her with his actions that his love was not just a whim.
But it is the unwavering determination that comes after careful consideration.
Outside the palace, drums and music were beating loudly, and the wedding procession had arrived at the palace gate.
Cui Huailin, dressed in a bright red wedding dress, looks taller and more handsome than usual.
The coldness and aloofness between his brows had long been replaced by a warm smile.
Those deep eyes can only hold one person at this moment.
The little princess whom he had gone around in circles for, almost missed, and finally got back.
He kowtowed to the emperor and empress according to etiquette, and every step he took was extremely solemn.
Yan Shixu looked at the son-in-law who finally won his precious daughter.
Although there is still some bitterness in my heart because my daughter has grown up, I feel more relieved.
He solemnly reminded her to "be kind to Miaomiao".
Although his tone still carried the majesty of an emperor, his eyes were soft.
Wen Li'er even had tears in her eyes as she held Miaomiao's hand and gave her detailed instructions.
My endless reluctance and blessings are beyond words.
Miaomiao bid farewell to her parents and was carried on the back of her eldest brother.
Step by step, he walked towards the luxurious phoenix sedan chair carried by sixteen people outside the hall.
Lying on my brother's broad and stable back, I listened to the blessings from the sisters and brothers around me.
Miaomiao couldn't help but shed tears, but they were tears of happiness.
The curtain of the sedan chair fell and the ceremonial procession began.
The huge wedding procession was as winding as a dragon.
Walk through Suzaku Street and receive the admiration and blessings of all people.
The rain of petals fell, interweaving with the sounds of joy and cheers.
It weaves a prosperous picture of a grand wedding.
…
In front of Cui's mansion, the ground was covered with red carpet and the lights were bright.
The wedding ceremony was complicated and grand, and Cui Huailin held Miaomiao's hand tightly the whole time.
The warmth from his fingertips dispelled all her anxiety and tension.
Amid the chanting of the ceremonial officer, they bowed to heaven and earth, to their parents, and to each other as husband and wife.
When the words "Ceremony Completed" resounded throughout the courtyard.
Cui Huailin turned his head and whispered in Miaomiao's ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"Miaomiao, my wife."
Miaomiao's heart skipped a beat, and her face beneath the veil turned red as the morning glow.
The wedding night.
In the bridal chamber, red candles were burning brightly, and the room was filled with brocade quilts and embroidered couches, and the fragrance was sweet.
The bridesmaid said all the auspicious words.
After spreading the tent, he smiled and retreated, leaving the space to the newlyweds.
Cui Huailin picked up the wedding scale, his fingertips trembling slightly, and gently lifted the veil embroidered with auspicious dragons and phoenixes.
Under the candlelight, the bride looked up at him shyly, looking delicate and charming.
Those eyes were as clear as before, but with a thousand more charms.
"Brother Huai Lin..." she called softly, her voice soft and sticky.
"Yeah." Cui Huailin responded, his voice hoarse and gentle.
He sat down beside her and looked at her carefully, as if he could never get enough of her.
"Are you tired today?"
Miaomiao shook her head gently: "Not tired."
With him around, she felt filled with joy and didn't feel tired at all.
Cui Huailin took two cups of wedding wine from the side and handed one of them to her.
Their arms intertwined, they were slightly tipsy from the wine, their eyes met, and they were filled with affection.
Drinking up the wine in the cup means that they will be one as a couple from now on, sharing the joys and sorrows.
Putting down the wine glass, Cui Huailin held Miaomiao's hand with a serious look.
"Miaomiao, it was my fault in the past that I made you sad for a long time.
From today on, I, Cui Huailin, swear here that I will never let you down in this life."
"You will always be my only wife, my precious baby."
Tears glistened in Miaomiao's eyes, but she smiled and nodded.
"I believe in Brother Huailin. No, my husband..."
The last two words were as light as a mosquito, but they made Cui Huailin's heart surge.
He lowered his head and gently kissed away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Then, kiss her lips slowly and tenderly.
This kiss no longer carried the restraint and temptation of the previous one, but was full of confirmation and possession.
The red curtain slowly fell, covering up the spring scene in the room.
Only the crackling of red candles remains, witnessing the beauty and tenderness of lovers finally getting married.
…
Three years later.
The back garden of Cui Mansion is bright and beautiful in spring.
A chubby baby wearing a pink shirt and two little pigtails.
He was learning to walk wobbly on the grass covered with a thick velvet carpet, babbling "Mom".
Miaomiao is now dressed as a woman, with her hair tied up in a gentle bun.
A lilac-colored casual dress makes her skin look plump and fair.
The childishness of her girlhood faded from her eyes and eyebrows, and she gained the gentle charm of a wife and mother.
She smiled and opened her arms, encouraging her daughter who was not far away: "Yuanyuan, come, come to mother."
The little girl giggled, stretched out her short legs, and threw herself into her mother's soft arms.
Miaomiao picked up her daughter and kissed her on her pink cheek, her heart and eyes full of love.
At this time, a slender figure walked into the garden.
It was Cui Huailin who had just returned from court.
He had not yet changed out of his official robe, which made him look taller and more elegant.
When he saw his wife and daughter, his stern brows softened instantly and he walked over quickly.
“Daddy!”
When Xiao Yuanyuan saw her father, she immediately stretched out her chubby little hands for a hug.
Cui Huailin naturally took his daughter's hand and held her up high, making the little girl giggle.
While teasing his daughter, he looked at his wife with a gentle gaze.
"Are you tired today? Did Yuanyuan bother you?"
"Not tired, she doesn't know how well behaved she is."
Miaomiao smiled and shook her head, picked up the silk handkerchief, and naturally wiped the sweat from his forehead.
You can tell at a glance that he is in a hurry to get back.
"Did everything go well today?"
"Yeah, everything is fine."
Cui Huailin enjoyed his wife's thoughtfulness and felt warm in his heart.
His position in the court is now increasingly stable, and his talents can be fully utilized.
When I returned home, I was accompanied by my lovely wife and daughter.
Life is perfect, that’s all.
He looked at Miaomiao, who was a little plumper than before marriage, but more charming and attractive.
I recalled my ridiculous words about “not liking plump things” and it felt like a lifetime ago.
He already knew it.
The person in his arms, no matter how fat or thin, is the apple of his eye.
It is the most precious treasure in his life.
"Oh right." Miaomiao remembered something and smiled.
"Just now, Zhao Zhao sent someone to deliver an invitation, saying that her naughty boy's full moon celebration is coming up, and asked us to go there as soon as possible."
Su Yuchen finally got his wish and couldn't wait to formally propose to Zhao Zhao before she turned eighteen.
The two have been married for more than a year now, and Zhao Zhao gave birth to a son safely last month.
They still quarrel on weekdays, but they are very sweet to each other and have a great relationship.
"Okay." Cui Huailin nodded with a smile in his eyes.
Thinking back to the beginning, I regarded Su Yuchen as the biggest stumbling block.
He also felt that the world was wonderful.
And the eldest brother Yan Xingyi acted with lightning speed.
In the second year after Zhao Zhao's wedding, he quickly asked for an imperial decree and welcomed Chu Weiyi into the family.
After the bride got married, Yan Xingyi was named King Yi and moved out of the palace to build his own residence.
Chu Weiyi manages the palace in an orderly manner, and she and Yan Xingyi are very loving and affectionate. She is now pregnant.
…
Prince Yan Xingtian and Gu Qingran have not yet gotten married.
But the position of Crown Princess has been decided.
Just wait for the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to choose an auspicious day.
The two men shared similar interests and often drank tea and discussed painting together, and their feelings grew deeper in the ordinary life.
My father, the emperor, and my mother, the queen, are very happy to see this happen. I believe that the Eastern Palace will soon welcome its mistress.
Everything is moving in the best direction.
As for the fourth brother...
Miaomiao pursed her lips and smiled.
When father looks at fourth brother now, his eyes are not eyes and his nose is not a nose.
He felt that his fourth brother had become stupid from studying so much that he couldn't even find a wife.
Yan Xingchuan was also helpless.
He now deeply understands this.
If you don’t get married when you reach that age, you’ll be committing a sin!
But what could he do? He really couldn't find it.
He also wants to find a wife who shares his interests.
Like my two royal brothers and two royal sisters, find a good person who loves me and accompanies me sincerely.
After his father glared at him for the umpteenth time, Yan Xingchuan silently pleaded with his mother.
He said he also wanted to be crowned king and live outside the palace...
Wen Lier felt that if she didn't release him, the good-tempered Xing Chuan would have to fight with the emperor who was becoming more and more childish as he grew older.
So, at night.
She tried to persuade him with all her might.
Finally, Yan Shixu issued an imperial decree to make Xingchuan a king and to establish a palace outside the palace.
In this way, everyone is happy.
…
The years are quiet and good, and everything in the world is stable.
The palace is still deep, with fleeting lights and shadows.
What remains is the long-lasting warmth and fulfillment.
