84_84041The old lady's first reaction was that something was going to happen. Seeing Feng Jinyuan and Kang Yi stopped and looked over there, she couldn't sit still anymore. She raised her buttocks and was about to stand up, but was pushed back by Zhao Mama: "Old lady, you must not move. You must stay calm today."
The old lady sat back down helplessly, but her heart was already in turmoil. She secretly glanced at Xuan Tianqi, the master of ceremonies, standing next to her, and saw that he was standing there as before, looking straight ahead, with a festive smile on his face, as if he hadn't seen her. She comforted herself and kept saying to herself: Learn more from him, learn more from him.
At this time, the reaction of the crowd outside finally developed further, and a young lady from an unknown family shouted, "Is that the Princess of Ji'an County? What is she wearing?"
When the old lady heard that Feng Yuheng had arrived, she couldn't help but feel anxious. Feng Yuheng hadn't shown up this morning, and she always felt that something was wrong. Sure enough, it finally happened.
Following the old lady's speculation and the discussion of the people outside, a little girl dressed in pink came in and stopped at the right door. Everyone stared at her clothes, and felt that the pink color was like summer petals covering the clothes, realistic and eye-catching but not too bright. There was not a single wrinkle on the material, not only no wrinkles, even if heavy snow fell, it would not leave the slightest trace, but it made people feel that there were always floating clouds on the clothes, like smoke and fog, as if in a fairyland.
Such a dazzling scene almost stole all the limelight from the bride. All eyes that were originally focused on Kang Yi's Guanghan silk veil instantly shifted over here.
Everyone was stunned. After a while, someone was heard saying, "This dress... is it Shuiyunduan? Shuiyunduan from Gumo Country?"
Someone who knows the business analyzed: "Not only that, look at the flowers embroidered on the material, they are not embroidered at all, they are clearly like real flowers blooming on it, and they are even more beautiful under the snow. To achieve this effect, this is... this is to destroy the Guanghan silk and use the ice silk inside as embroidery thread!"
hiss!
People gasped in shock. To destroy the Guanghan silk to make embroidery thread was such a grand undertaking that even the empress in the palace would not be able to do it.
"Did you see the small piece of gauze around her waist? If I'm not mistaken, it should be the ancient Shu Kingdom's treasure Ruoye gauze."
"Shuiyun forged the clothes, Guanghan silk for embroidery, and Ruoye yarn for decoration. So, the only thing missing is Liangrenjin?"
"Silly boy, although there are many colors of Lover's Brocade, the most beautiful and most valuable one is bright red, which is the material for wedding dresses. It is said that it takes ten years for the ancient Shu Kingdom to dye a piece of bright red Lover's Brocade. Once the finished product is made into wedding dresses, when it is exposed to the sun, a phoenix pattern will appear, which looks like it is reborn from the ashes, which is enough to amaze people all over the world."
People were talking about it one after another, all their attention was focused on the robe, completely forgetting that they were originally there to watch the ceremony. Not to mention the women were amazed, even the men had to look at it with a little surprise at such a grand gesture.
Feng Jinyuan stared at the owner of the dress, his second daughter Feng Yuheng, with a cold and hateful look in his eyes. He had never expected that Feng Yuheng would wear such a dress. Where would he put his face?
A moment ago, the eldest prince Xuan Tianqi suddenly shouted in the front hall: "The auspicious time has arrived, please invite the newlyweds into the hall!"
Only then did people realize the topic of the day, and they all turned their attention away from Feng Yuheng and continued to cheer for Feng Jinyuan.
Feng Yuheng also bowed to her father and watched the two of them walk hand in hand into the front hall.
Soon, the singing of worshiping heaven and earth arose, and after three bows and nine kowtows, Feng Jinyuan and Kang Yi finally became an official couple. The heavy snow also stopped abruptly after a sound of "sending into the cave".
The snow stopped, the banquet began, and the children of the Feng family gathered together and stood in the yard. It was indeed a charming sight.
The Fifth Prince's eyes had never left Fendai. Because of the incident on the first day of the new year, he had not had a good year, and he had not been able to visit Fendai at Feng Mansion. He wanted to talk to Fendai, but the Second Prince kept talking to him, so he could not leave no matter how anxious he was.
Soon, Feng Jinyuan returned to the front yard to greet the guests. All the guests who came to the mansion today were distinguished guests, not only the five princes, but also several vassal states had sent generous gifts, but only the envoy from Gumo came in person.
The other countries were not included because Kang Yi of Qian Zhou was the heroine. Li Kun of Zong Sui had some estrangement with Feng Jinyuan, so they simply left the capital before the wedding. The prince of Gu Shu had proposed marriage to Kang Yi, so he was sent away the day before to avoid suspicion.
Once the feast started, many rules were abandoned. Some ladies thought Feng Yuheng's clothes were really beautiful, so they couldn't help but come forward to get close to her and take a closer look. While Feng Yuheng was talking to them, he said to Xiangrong, "Didn't my sister also give you a Yunshui Forged dress? Why don't you wear it?"
Xiangrong twisted the handkerchief and said, "I can't bear to part with it. I want to... I want to keep it for later."
Feng Yuheng laughed at her stupidity: "You are still growing up. In two years, you will grow taller and you won't be able to wear it. Isn't it a waste?"
Rong thought about it and said with a smile: "Then my sister will wear it often in the future."
When everyone heard that the Ji'an County Lady could give away such precious fabric, they thought that the third daughter of the Feng family must be taken care of by her, so they hurriedly tried to get close to Xiangrong. Such flattery was like a silver needle in the eyes of Fandai, and she was stabbed at the sight, not to mention the jealousy.
On the contrary, Chenyu was calmer. She had placed all her wealth and stakes on Kang Yi. If someone said that a princess who could help her younger brother ascend the throne could not beat a thirteen-year-old girl, Feng Chenyu would never believe it.
Since only Gumo was present among the four small countries, he would naturally take the initiative to greet the princes of Dashun. Feng Yuheng had noticed that man a long time ago. He was a strong man in his thirties, tall and strong, with dark skin. He walked with great strength, and he must be a military commander.
The man started toasting the eldest prince Xuan Tianqi, and then toasted the other princes one by one. However, he was slightly stunned when he toasted Xuan Tianye. Feng Yuheng was standing right in front of the man's face, and saw him glance at Xuan Tianye's side. Although the process was very fast, she still caught him. After toasting Xuan Tianye, the man also glanced at her, and then continued to talk to others.
Feng Yuheng talked to the ladies around her for a while, then found an excuse to leave the front yard and walked along the path. Not long after, she heard heavy footsteps coming from behind her. She stopped and turned around, and sure enough, she saw the Gumo envoy walking towards her.
"If you know how to regulate your energy, you won't feel the ground falling so heavily even if you walk fast," she reminded helplessly.
The Gumo envoy felt a little embarrassed and quickly bowed to her: "This humble general greets the county lady."
Feng Yuheng also returned the greeting and said, "General Zhou is polite." Xuan Tianming had sent Bai Ze to tell her before that the envoy of Gumo was a military general. When he suppressed the rebellion in the northwest, he saved a prince of Gumo. Unexpectedly, half a year later, the prince actually ascended the throne, and the ordinary soldier named Luo Chou who had defended the prince and fought against the enemy was also promoted to general. This time he came to Dashun to pay tribute in person, so naturally he had to stand with Xuan Tianming.
When Xuan Tianming first told him about Feng Yuheng, Zhou Chou knew that this Ji'an County Lady must be different from ordinary people, otherwise she would never have caught Xuan Tianming's eye. He also listened to Xuan Tianming's words, no matter what happened, looking for Feng Yuheng was the same as looking for him.
He looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he quickly said, "I'll make it short, County Lord. When I toasted the Third Prince just now, I saw an attendant beside him who looked very familiar. After thinking about it carefully, I remembered that I had seen him in the northwest. At that time, the Ninth Prince was trapped in the mountains, and I had met that person several times when I led people to rescue him from the periphery. At that time, I heard him speak with a Dashun accent, so I thought he was someone around the Ninth Emperor, and didn't think much about it. But when I saw him today, he was standing next to the Third Prince. Isn't the Third Prince... Isn't he on a different path from the Ninth Prince?"
Feng Yuheng nodded, "We took a different route." Then he asked, "Did that person recognize you?"
Zhou Chou shook his head: "It should be impossible to recognize him. At that time, there was only one Dashun person, but there were tens of thousands of Gumo people. It is not difficult for us to remember him, but it is unlikely for him to remember us."
Feng Yuheng felt a chill in his heart. He had long suspected that the removal of Qian Zhou Shenshe played a key role in the Northwest Rebellion. There couldn't be other factors. Otherwise, how could Xuan Tianming be trapped in the mountains with his tactics and martial arts? Now that he thought about it, there could only be one reason - there was a traitor.
As a prince, it is understandable that Xuan Tianye has a little understanding of the situation in the northwest. In those years, the old Emperor Gumo was still alive, and there were constant wars on the northwest border. Even if the army won every battle, there would inevitably be casualties, and recruiting soldiers was commonplace. If Xuan Tianye was determined, it was not impossible to plant one or two people in the military camp.
There was a flash of coldness in her eyes, but she calmed down happily and said to Zhou Chou, "I know, and I will convey it to His Royal Highness. General Zhou has worked hard, so enjoy the banquet today and leave the rest to me."
Zhou Chou quickly bowed again, then turned around and hurried back to the banquet. On the way back, he felt a chill on his back. He had only heard about how great the Ji'an County Lord was before, and knew that anyone who was favored by Xuan Tianming must not be underestimated. He did not expect that Feng Yuheng could be so powerful at such a young age. Sometimes she was the petite and lovely second daughter of the Feng family, and sometimes she was the fierce county lady with a cold light in her eyes. This change of mood made people feel incredible just by looking at it, not to mention that this girl could make something called steel, which could break the iron essence of the Sui Dynasty.
Zhou Chou returned to the banquet in amazement, and soon Feng Yuheng also returned.
Just after both of them sat down, the bride Kang Yi came out with her veil removed, surrounded by servants.
According to national regulations, if a princess from a foreign country marries an official of the second rank or above in the Dashun Dynasty, it means that the diplomatic relations between the two countries have taken a step forward. Her identity is no longer just a bride, but an important hub for the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, and she has to come out to greet the guests.
Kang Yi was very good at diplomacy. Although she was a new bride, she did not show any shyness. She spoke a few polite words in a graceful and generous manner, which made all the princes applaud and praise her.
After the bride has met the guests, according to the rules, the children of the Feng family must kowtow to their new mother.
Several children stood up and walked to the center of the field with Kang Yi's dignified smile. No one noticed that Feng Yuheng gently raised her hand and inserted a golden hairpin into her bun.
