Chapter 655 Yao Shu’s Wedding



The date of August 6 was decided by the Lu family. According to the Left Prime Minister Lu Song, this date was carefully calculated by someone and it was found to be a very auspicious day. ( . . )

Yao Xian has never been particular about these things, so Chuliu thought it was reasonable and nodded in agreement.

Unexpectedly, it rained heavily that day, starting at 3:15 a.m. and continuing until the auspicious time when Yao Shu was going to pick up the bride. The Yao family had no choice but to prepare a raincoat for Yao Shu to ride out quickly, and also covered the wedding sedan with several layers of rain cloth to prevent it from getting wet.

Yao Shu hurried and finally entered the gate of the Lu family at an auspicious time. The Lu family had no complaints about this, after all, they chose the day, and it rained heavily on such a good day, and they had no place to complain. It was a pity that Lu Yao's beautiful clothes would get wet no matter how careful she was.

Under the big red wedding veil, Lu Yao was so angry that her face turned blue. In her heart, she secretly blamed Ge for choosing this day. It was not an auspicious day at all, but an unlucky day.

Fortunately, the Yao family arranged the wedding sedan very well. She bent down and entered the sedan, immediately blocking out the heavy rain. A smile appeared on the corners of Lu Yao's lips, but there was always a trace of worry and anxiety in her heart. She thought about it, but she could not find the source of this anxiety.

At this time, many people gathered at the gate of Yao's house. Although it was raining, people were still very enthusiastic. After all, this was the first happy event of the Yao family after returning to the capital, and the one they married was the daughter of the current left prime minister. This was a major event in the capital.

Some people started to speculate in groups of three or four, "It can be said that the Yao family is really predestined with the current Left Prime Minister. Back then, their only daughter married into the Left Prime Minister's mansion, and now their eldest grandson is marrying a woman from the Left Prime Minister's mansion."

"But this left prime minister is not the same as the previous one. Feng Jinyuan has absolutely no chance of turning things around, but the Lu family is in its heyday and is being relied on by the emperor."

"Hey! It's hard to say. Who can predict what will happen in the future? The post of left prime minister in our dynasty has never had a good ending since ancient times. I don't know how long the Lu family can last."

Such whispers, under the cover of heavy rain, successfully concealed all sounds. At the gate of Yao's house, the elders did not need to go out to greet them, but the younger generations were all dressed in gorgeous clothes and looking forward to it. These younger brothers were very new to their eldest brother's marriage.

As Feng Yuheng's cousin, she was naturally also in the welcoming team, including Feng Zirui who also stood with her, waiting for the bride's arrival.

Soon, Yao Shu's wedding procession became visible. The drummers and musicians who had been waiting at the gate of Yao's mansion immediately started playing, and firecrackers also went off a few times with difficulty in the rain.

Finally, Yao Shu rode his tall horse and stopped in front of the mansion gate. After the wedding sedan chair was stable, he dismounted, walked to the front of the sedan chair, stretched out his arms and waited for the bride to get up and come out.

There were no arrangements for kicking the sedan door or shooting the sedan curtain. For the Yao family, once a daughter-in-law is married into the family, there is no such thing as giving a show of power to the new daughter-in-law.

In fact, everyone knows that it is a great fortune for a daughter to marry into the Yao family. Not to mention that the Yao family has such a powerful niece like Feng Yuheng sitting in the family, it is certain that the family will prosper for at least three generations. The Yao family's rule that men are not allowed to take concubines is already enviable. One person for one lifetime, how rare is this in this era!

When Lu Yao got out of the sedan chair, Yao Shu supported her and held up a red oil-paper umbrella himself. Although her wedding gown still got wet, at least Lu Yao was well taken care of, as Yao Shu held most of the umbrella for her.

At the same time, the official in charge of the wedding threw the copper coins that had been prepared long ago to the crowd of onlookers. The people said "Congratulations" while picking up the reward money.

I vaguely heard someone say, "Marrying a wife on a rainy day, this wife is very powerful, I wonder if the young master of the Yao family can subdue her."

As they were talking, the two newlyweds had already walked up the stairs. Lu Yao was not in any trouble. When she passed by Feng Yuheng, she suddenly slipped and fell straight to Feng Yuheng's feet.

Feng Yuheng calmly gave a helping hand, which seemed to be just a fake one, but in fact he used a lot of strength to lift Lu Yao up.

"The ground is slippery today, so please be careful, cousin." She smiled, but her voice was flat.

Under the veil, Lu Yao snorted lightly, and turned away awkwardly without saying thank you. Yao Shu hurriedly thanked Feng Yuheng, and the two of them stood up again and walked into the mansion gate.

At this time, a sharp-eyed guest saw the gold bracelet on Lu Yao's wrist and couldn't help but exclaimed: "That bracelet is so beautiful!"

Someone who knew the situation said quickly, "How could it not look good? It was Princess Ji'an who asked Bai Qiaojiang to do it herself."

"Bai Qiaojiang? My God, only someone of Princess Ji'an's stature can hire a craftsman like him."

"Yes, the Lu family married into the Yao family. Although it seems that the Prime Minister's daughter is marrying down, everyone knows that the Lu family got a great bargain."

People were talking about it, but they all followed the newlyweds into the mansion. Because of the heavy rain, a rain tent had been set up in the front yard of the Yao family, and people were not afraid of getting wet when walking under the rain tent.

Feng Yuheng dragged Zirui along with several of his cousins. Zirui was small and always wanted to watch the fun, so his second cousin Yao Sen simply picked him up and let him watch enough.

The main hall in the main courtyard is the wedding hall. At this time, Yao Xian was sitting on the left side of the wedding hall, Yao Shu's father Yao Jingjun was sitting on the right side, and the person standing next to Yao Duanqing was his wife Xu.

Yao Xian's face did not show much joy, but he looked a little serious. However, Yao Jingjun and Xu's faces were full of joy, and they could not be stopped.

After all, the Yao family was essentially kindhearted. In their opinion, there were no bad people in the world, except for Feng Jinyuan, who was misjudged at the beginning. But at least, no matter what, as long as someone entered the Yao family's gate, they would first treat him with sincerity, and if that person really didn't know what was good for him, they would deal with him appropriately.

Today's wedding master is the Right Prime Minister Feng Qing, who was specially appointed by Emperor Tianwu. Firstly, the Right Prime Minister is close to the Ninth Prince and Feng Yuheng, and secondly, he is here to echo the Left Prime Minister, making the Dashun court seem like a family.

First they bowed to heaven and earth, then to their parents, then the couple bowed to each other and were escorted to the bridal chamber. Everything went surprisingly smoothly. Except for the fact that Lu Yao almost fell when entering the mansion, this wedding was truly a smooth one. Even that near fall was considered normal by others in such a heavy rain today.

Feng Yuheng didn't think there was anything wrong with Lu Yao's fall. She saw with her own eyes that Lu Yao accidentally stepped on her skirt when she was climbing the stairs. In addition, the stairs were slippery, so it was normal for her to be unstable. But the angle at which she fell was a bit tricky, coming straight towards her. Was she trying to put some eye drops on her as soon as she entered the door? She smiled bitterly and said, "Lu Yao, Lu Yao, you are marrying into the Yao family, not my Princess Mansion. What's more, the people you Lu family want to curry favor with are me and Xuan Tianming. You are acting in this way, which is contrary to your father's wishes!"

After the newlyweds were escorted to the bridal chamber, the guests who had come to watch the ceremony returned to the courtyard and took their seats under the tent.

Because of the emperor's emphasis on this marriage, coupled with the emperor's relationship with Yao Xian, and of course, the face of the left prime minister Lu Song, all the princes in Beijing attended the wedding, and they all brought their concubines. Even the fifth prince Xuan Tianyi brought his concubines.

However, the seats were arranged according to rank. The princes sat together, the concubines sat together. Naturally, those who had not yet married into the family were not included, but were squeezed into the group of ordinary guests and sat with the young ladies of official families below the fourth rank.

As for Feng Yuheng, she was a princess and should have taken the seat of honor, but she was also a cousin of the Yao family, so naturally she sat with the Yao family.

But the look that Fendai gave him was full of resentment. Feng Yuheng naturally couldn't ignore the hatred that pierced through her eyes, but he didn't take it too seriously. He just responded with a faint smile, looking at her as if she was looking at a stranger. Fendai was so angry that she almost twisted the handkerchief in her hand.

The eldest prince's concubine brought the children over. The two children were very cute, and Feng Yuheng liked them very much. He immediately took out two cans of milk powder from the maternal and child counter in the space and sent them over.

Everyone knew that the gift Feng Yuheng sent must be good, especially after hearing her talk about how to drink the milk powder and its nutritional value, the two concubines stood up and thanked Feng Yuheng.

Xuan Feiyu and Zirui also started playing together at this time. The two children were running all over the field, bumping into people from time to time. However, everyone knew the identities of these two children, and each of them was eager to be bumped into a few more times. Wouldn't it be better if they could say a few words to each other?

While playing, the two children, without knowing who suggested it, ran out of the front yard and went around to the garden at the back.

Feng Yuheng saw it, but she didn't rush to intervene. This Yao Mansion was originally the Feng Mansion in the past. Zirui was very familiar with this mansion. Moreover, the Yao family lived there now. Everyone in the Yao family, from the master to the servants, had the same temperament. She knew this, so she was relieved to let the two children play freely, knowing that nothing dangerous would happen.

Not long after, Yao Shu also came out from the backyard, still wearing the groom's clothes, and began to toast the guests at each table.

Everything was so orderly, everything was so normal, Feng Yuheng thought, all of this could almost be described as joyful.

Of course, this is the atmosphere that should be in the Yao family, but she doesn't mind. She always feels that today's calmness seems to hide a hint of uneasiness, but she doesn't know where this strangeness will erupt.

After a while, Xuan Feiyu and Feng Zirui came back one after the other. This time, they were no longer laughing and joking around, but they both pounced on Feng Yuheng.

Feng Yuheng hugged the two children, wiped the sweat off their foreheads, and asked Zirui: "It must be you who took the little prince around."

Zirui frowned and said nothing.

Feng Yuheng's heart skipped a beat, and seeing Xuan Feiyu also looked like he wanted to talk, he asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with you guys?"

Xuan Feiyu nodded, leaned close to Feng Yuheng's ear, and whispered to her: "Fairy sister, Zirui and I just ran to the backyard to play, and saw a strange man outside the bride's yard..."
