A year later, the new emperor got married and issued a general amnesty.
The red carpet laid out from the imperial city extends all the way to the Zhonghou Mansion. Oh, no, now it should be said that it stretches side by side to the gate of the prince's mansion.
The streets we passed were lined with bright red ribbons and beautiful red lanterns, especially the Jianghuo Street in front of Huaishang Jiangnan.
There are fireworks everywhere, as if waiting for a signal.
Countless betrothal gifts were continuously delivered to the palace gate.
The restaurants, tea houses and shops on both sides of the street, as well as the people behind the guards, were all crowded with people. They all came to see the stunning beauty of the new emperor and the eldest daughter of the Qi family.
Speaking of the new emperor, I could talk about him for three days and three nights.
Within just one year of ascending the throne, he had already won the applause of the people. He repaired rivers and personally supervised disaster relief.
Faced with the attack of foreign enemies, he put on armor and led the Qi family army to victory.
When it comes to punishing corrupt officials, they are also ruthless and are determined to root out all those parasites.
He can withstand everyone's doubts and deserves everyone's praise.
Now that such an emperor is going to marry a queen, and the queen is the eldest daughter of the Qi family, everyone feels that a hero should have such a beauty.
Although most of them had never seen what the beauty looked like, from the few words that were passed down, they could tell that she was stunningly beautiful.
Besides, she is not only beautiful, but also intelligent.
Just as the emperor's edict said, she is talented and virtuous, brave and resourceful, and can go to the battlefield and enter the court.
The Qi family army obeyed her orders, and even many generals and officials respected her highly.
Such a beautiful daughter is worthy of their wise and powerful Majesty.
Xunmi sat in front of a not-so-clear bronze mirror, letting Jiujiu put this and that on her hair, and smilingly put on the golden bead curtain for her.
Her wedding dress was not the usual bright red, but the bright yellow that only the emperor could wear.
The hairpins on her head are also made of pure gold. In a word, from head to toe, the whole person is golden.
When the clothes were delivered, she understood her husband's intention.
In this life, you are the only one who can stand shoulder to shoulder with me, stand at this highest position, and share this beautiful land with me.
In this way, he was telling her that she had never been his weakness, nor had she ever been his vassal; they were one and the same.
"Xunmi, you are so beautiful today. Ah, look at me, I can't call you Xunmi anymore. I have to change my words, Aunt Huang."
Jiujiu tidied the bead curtain in front of her, looked up and down, left and right to make sure there was no problem, then stopped and sighed.
The emperor's uncle finally got married to his lover. They had originally decided to get married after the emperor's aunt's mourning period was over, but then foreign enemies attacked.
This battle lasted for half a year, but it successfully made those people realize the power of the Sui Dynasty, and they all submitted letters of surrender.
As a result, the couple's marriage was delayed.
But it’s not too late, it’s great to see them happy.
Xunmi smiled, winked at Jiujiu who was looking at him, and teased.
"Jiujiu, you don't have to envy me. Your turn will come soon. When the time comes, as the imperial aunt, I will make sure you marry even more beautifully than me."
"By the way, your Luo Kai was so fascinated that he couldn't find his side. He didn't even go to the bridal chamber to worship. Hahaha~~~"
"Aunt Imperial!" Jiujiu said angrily, her fair cheeks flushed red, and her eyes flashed with shame and anger.
Xunmi immediately covered her mouth, "Okay, okay, I won't say anymore, I know our Jiujiu is shy, hehe."
The latest thing she has learned is that she teases Jiujiu and Luo Kai whenever she has time, which is very interesting.
Jiujiu glared helplessly at the smiling auntie, muttering, "Maybe the uncle didn't even bother to bow down in the hall and went straight to the bridal chamber."
The imperial aunt is so beautiful that any woman would like her when she sees her, let alone the imperial uncle who always values the imperial aunt more than his own life.
"Huh? Jiujiu, what did you say? I didn't hear you."
I just fiddled with the bead curtain blocking my view when I heard Jiujiu mumbling. I was too quiet to hear clearly.
"No, Aunt Huang, you will know tonight." Jiujiu smiled maliciously. After staying with Xunmi for a long time, even the shyest little white rabbit can become lively.
Xunmi raised her eyebrows. She was now certain that what Jiujiu said was definitely not good.
"Don't worry, Auntie! The uncle is here, he's here in person."
Jiujiu knew how deep the emperor's uncle's love for the emperor's aunt was, so she was not surprised to see the emperor's uncle appear here, but only gave him full blessings.
Xunmi looked towards the door. He was wearing the same bright yellow robe. It was not as solemn as the dragon robe he wore for court, nor as casual as when he was relaxing.
Instead, it has a solemn yet relaxed feel. The design of the clothes is the same as the groom's suit, with a layer of tulle on the outside, but all of it is golden.
What they are looking for is also the phoenix coronet and the golden cloak that drags on the ground, solemn and elegant.
They got married just like ordinary people. The husband went to the door to greet him. If the wife had brothers, the brothers would carry her out on their backs. If the wife didn't have brothers, the husband would carry her out on his back.
The burning sensation in Duanmu Yulin's eyes has never dissipated since he saw that man.
It was great that he could finally have her and show the world that she was his.
"Xun'er, I am lucky to marry you as my queen in this life."
Get down on one knee and offer your back to her.
Xunmi raised her head slightly, forced back the tears in her eyes, bent down and lay on his back, and put her arms around his neck.
"It is my great honor to marry you, my husband."
A ball of fire was burning in Duanmu Yulin's chest, like boiling magma, raging continuously.
Just for that sentence, that title.
The onlookers soon saw the emperor, who had just walked into the palace, coming out personally carrying a woman who was also dressed in bright yellow.
At that moment, they were shocked. Bright yellow was a color that only one person could use, and now the emperor had given it to the queen. What did this mean?
"Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor; long live the Empress, long live the Empress."
"Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor; long live the Empress, long live the Empress."
Shouts resounded through the sky, and people on the street knelt on the ground.
The two of them sat in the imperial carriage, and wherever they passed, they were met with the same shouts and full blessings.
Duanmu Yulin used his actions to show her position in his heart. Just because it was her, he wanted to give her all the best things in the world.
From then on, during every morning court session, the emperor sat high on the dragon throne while the empress listened to government affairs from behind the curtain.
Until they grew old, they never had a quarrel.
—————
"Speaking of the late emperor and his successor, we have to talk about the love between the two. They held each other hostage to reclaim the throne, to restore the reputation of the Marquisate, to fight the enemy together, and to cure plague and floods together."
"No matter how difficult the circumstances, the late emperor never separated from his wife. The only time was when they had princes."
"Hun Xian and his wife died early due to injuries sustained during the Qi family incident. The late emperor was still healthy and strong at the time, but he also passed away on the same night as Hu Xian and his wife."
"It is true love that lasts through life and death, and I don't want him to be alone." Only the storyteller's voice could be heard slowly in the restaurant.
