Last night he heard that Princess Yu had prepared a terrifying dowry for her sister. Unexpectedly, the dowry even included five-treasure fabrics. Her sister-in-law was really generous.
He personally carried the bride to the wedding sedan chair, and arranged the person in the sedan chair, fearing that the sleeping person would fall down due to the shaking of the sedan chair, and specially asked Dongying to sit on the side to support her. When he got on the horse again, he looked back and couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling. Why did Feng Yuheng give so much dowry? My God, more than a hundred large boxes, each box was so heavy that it took four people to carry it together. There were more than five hundred people carrying the boxes alone, which was too scary.
He shuddered, thinking that his wife really couldn't be bullied in the future. Just because Feng Yuheng was so protective of her, if he bullied Fendai in the future, wouldn't he be whipped to pieces?
Finally, the wedding procession began to march slowly from the gate of the courtyard to Prince Li's mansion. There was music and dancing along the way, making it very lively. Prince Li's mansion was also generous in distributing rewards, which were distributed along the way, attracting countless people to follow and join in the fun.
At the end of Fendai's courtyard, the last box was finally carried away, and Feng Yuheng and Xiangrong were finally awakened by the servants. Huang Quan put his hands on his waist and said, "If you don't wake up, I will throw cold water on you!"
Feng Yuheng rubbed his eyes, his mind still fuzzy. Hearing Huang Quan bluffing over there, he couldn't remember why he had to get up so early. Was there something important?
It was Xiangrong who reacted first and exclaimed, "Ah!" "Today my fourth sister is getting married."
Oh my god! Feng Yuheng held her forehead with her hand. How could she have forgotten about this? "Where's Fendai? Is she awake?"
Wang Chuan shook his head and said helplessly, "She didn't wake up. The Fifth Prince carried her to the wedding sedan. When the Fifth Prince got there, you were all asleep. He thought the Fourth Miss had changed her mind again, so he rushed in and put on the wedding gown for her himself, and then took her away without saying a word."
Oh my! Feng Yuheng thought, the people in Lao Xuan's family are quite domineering!
"Hurry up, let's pack up and go to Prince Li's Mansion!" She finally came to her senses and took the initiative to drink the sobering soup prepared by the servants, then washed up, dressed... After a mess, she finally took Xiangrong Zirui and Xiaobao, followed by An, and took the imperial carriage to Prince Li's Mansion.
The wedding procession was moving slowly, and they had to tour the streets of Beijing. Feng Yuheng hurried over, but at least he arrived at the gate of Prince Li's mansion a little earlier than the wedding sedan. There were already many people gathered here, not only were there many people watching, but there were even more people queuing up to hand in wedding gifts and wait to enter the mansion. After all, it was the fifth prince's wedding, and all the prominent figures in Beijing came, and they brought their families with them. It was lively and in line with today's festive theme.
On Ren Xifeng's side, all the sisters had already arrived. When they saw Feng Yuheng coming, they hurried over. Ren Xifeng said, "We're waiting for you! Let's go in together."
After entering Prince Li's Mansion, Feng Yuheng discovered that the Yao family had also come. The three brothers Yao Jingjun brought their respective wives, and her five cousins in Beijing were also present. Everyone gathered around, and her youngest cousin Yao Xin immediately played with Zirui. Xu pulled her aside and whispered, "The Yao family also prepared a lot of dowry gifts for Fendai. Now that the Feng family is gone, the Yao family is at least her maiden family! Tell her later not to despise her."
Feng Yuheng smiled and said, "Why would I dislike it? How bad can the dowry from the Yao Mansion be? Even I want it!"
Xu rolled her eyes at her and said with a smile, "Your grandfather gave you so much at the beginning, but you refused to take it. Now it is still intact in the mansion. Your uncles said that whether you want it or not, it is all yours. There are not a few children in the Yao family, and we have to prepare enough for them all. Whether it is a marriage or a marriage, we can't let people look down on us." As she spoke, she pulled Feng Yuheng and whispered, "In fact, we prepared a dowry for Fendai, firstly because you two are back to square one, and secondly... Ah Heng, before you came back, that girl went to your grandfather's grave. Your third cousin saw it with his own eyes. Fendai set up an incense table with fruit candles in front of your grandfather's grave and kowtowed three times. Just for this love, we can't treat her badly."
Feng Yuheng smiled. That's what she said! Fendai is not a bad girl by nature. In her heart, she always remembers the things that happened when the sisters were little before they became enemies. Whenever she heard her talk about the past with Xiangrong, she was very envious, because the original owner had too few memories. At that time, Feng Yuheng was not close to her sisters, so she didn't remember much of the most beautiful and brilliant childhood in Fendai's heart.
More and more people gathered in the courtyard. Xuan Tianming came close to Feng Yuheng, pulled her ear and said, "If it wasn't for the bad influence of me running to the bride's courtyard, I would have gone there to fight you this morning. It's someone's wedding, but you got everyone in the courtyard drunk. Is there any sister like you?"
"Who gave you the wine?" She rolled her eyes. "You knew they were getting married today, but you gave them wine the night before. What was your intention?"
"Good intentions!" Xuan Tianming snorted, "That is fine wine that has been stored in the Xianyalou kiln for hundreds of years. Ordinary people can't drink it. Forget it, I won't bother with you. You can have fun by yourself. I will officiate the wedding today."
That's right, the Fifth Prince Feng Fendai got married, and Xuan Tianming was the master of ceremonies. This arrangement was very meaningful. On the one hand, it was for Feng Yuheng's sake, so that Feng Fendai could have a perfect wedding. On the other hand, Xuan Tianming was the representative, inviting the Fifth Prince Xuan Tianyan to form an alliance, hoping that this brother could stand on the same side with them, put aside their past grudges, and shake hands to make peace from now on.
Fendai had woken up halfway through the journey. Dongying quickly combed her hair in the bridal sedan. There was no time to put on makeup as she was covered with a veil, so outsiders could not see it. After entering the bridal chamber and the Fifth Prince went out to entertain the guests, they could touch up their makeup.
The officiant's voice rose, and Xuan Tianming followed the steps of the wedding ceremony, proceeding step by step. The woman covered her face with a wedding veil, and her face was already in tears.
She didn't expect that the master of ceremonies would be Xuan Tianming, the man she once loved so much. He also used harsh methods to deal with her. Unexpectedly, he would become the master of ceremonies at her wedding. She once thought that the hatred between her and Xuan Tianming would never be resolved in this lifetime!
Fendai moved her wrist, as if she could still feel the pain from Xuan Tianming's whip on her forearm. She could only sigh, how many past times had passed! All of them were passing clouds. From now on, there was only one Xuan Tianyan in her life. Her lifelong happiness, honor and disgrace would be closely linked to the fifth prince of Dashun. He was her heaven, the man she wanted to spend her life with.
Finally, the couple bowed to each other, and a tear from Fendai fell to the ground with a plop. Xuan Tianyan's voice came to her ears. He said, "Don't worry, I will love you and protect you for the rest of my life."
"The ceremony is over!" Xuan Tianming said loudly, announcing that the fifth prince of the Dashun Dynasty, Xuan Tianyan, and the fourth daughter of the Feng family, Feng Fendai, were officially married. Everyone clapped their hands, from the wedding hall to the courtyard, all the way to the open gate of Prince Li's Mansion, the applause continued, one after another. Xuan Tianming said: "From now on, you are husband and wife. As a younger brother, I hope that my brother can get a good wife, and I hope that my sister-in-law will treat her gently. As a brother-in-law, I only wish my sister a happy life, and I hope that my brother-in-law can take good care of her."
Xuan Tianyan nodded seriously. He was both his brother and his brother-in-law. Their relationship was really close! From now on, they had to stand together.
At this time, a loud shout was heard at the gate of the mansion: "The imperial edict has arrived!" Everyone was startled and turned around to look. Some people even speculated quietly: "Why did the imperial edict come at this time? The emperor has always disliked the fifth prince. With that incident many years ago standing in the way, how can the relationship between father and son be good? Could this imperial edict be here to disrupt the situation?"
Xuan Tianyan also frowned, and a hidden worry rose in his heart. Fendai's palms were cold, and she remembered that year when she danced the Snow Plum Dance in the palace without knowing the consequences... Today she and Xuan Tianyan were getting married, was the emperor angry again?
However, Xuan Tianyan's worries soon subsided. He felt that he was overthinking. If his father still had a grudge in his heart, how could his ninth brother give him such a big face? You know, the ninth brother and his father have always been of the same mind. No matter what, as long as his father is not happy, the ninth brother will not do it. On the other hand, once the ninth brother does this, then no matter how unhappy his father is, he will nod and agree.
What's more, today not only the ninth brother came, but all his brothers came, including the sixth brother who was supervising the country. So... He held Fendai's hand and gently told her: "Don't worry, this imperial decree is to bless us."
Fendai's heart calmed down as he spoke, and she realized that it couldn't be a bad thing. With her second sister around, how could it be a bad thing? She remembered that since her second sister returned to Beijing, the palace immediately became her world. From the emperor to the queen, they all held her in their hands and spoiled her.
The person who came to issue the imperial decree was Zhang Yuan. Zhang Yuan walked into the wedding hall, looked around, and then said to the fifth prince: "Don't be nervous, Your Highness. It's just an oral order, but you still have to kneel down to receive it."
Xuan Tianyan immediately pulled Fendai to kneel down, and at the same time, everyone present also knelt down, and heard Zhang Yuan say: "The emperor ordered, Fifth Brother, you have been indifferent to state affairs for so many years, and you have been too carefree. You must go back to court immediately after ten days of your wedding and assist your sixth brother in governing the country. If you don't do a good job, I will send you to guard the border and you will not see your wife for several years. I decree!"
People are in all kinds of mess in the wind!
However, it was the women and children who were in a mess. All the men present understood this extremely unreasonable oral order clearly. If the Fifth Prince was allowed to attend the court, it meant that the past grudges had been resolved and the emperor no longer cared about the past. If the Fifth Prince was allowed to assist the Sixth Prince in governing the country, it meant that the emperor recognized the Fifth Prince's political acumen. It also showed an attitude to the outside world. The next generation of the Dashun Dynasty would probably be handed over to the Sixth Prince. It seemed that they would have to worry more about the Sixth Prince's marriage in the future...
