On May 20th, Yu Tanqi and Jiang Shi got married.
It is no exaggeration to say that the entire capital was shocked. From civil and military officials to ordinary people, everyone was watching the wedding of the two.
Yu Tanqi's red wedding dress was as gorgeous as a princess's wedding.
Yu Tanqi got up early in the morning to dress up and put on a gorgeous and heavy phoenix crown and bridal gown.
Looking at the gorgeous self in the mirror, Yu Tanqi was a little dazed.
Today is her wedding day and she is the bride.
"The groom is here to pick up the bride."
Jiang Shi came very quickly.
Yu Tanqi was helped out of the house by Linlang and Taohua. When he arrived at the main hall, he immediately saw a handsome young man in a red groom's robe.
Different from the red top scholar's robe during the parade, the groom's robe is more festive crimson. The red background makes the young man's pale face look more rosy and his appearance more gorgeous and eye-catching.
Yu Tanqi took a look and then lowered his eyes, walked to Yu Shangheng, and performed the ceremony of thanking and crying farewell.
"My daughter thanks you, parents, for raising me for so many years..."
Yu Shangheng held Xie Lin's tablet in his hand, on which were engraved the four words "My beloved wife Xie Lin" written by him personally.
Facing his mother's tablet, Yu Tanqi did not feel fear, only endless nostalgia in his heart.
She thought to herself, Mother, you finally see me get married.
A crystal tear rolled down from the corner of her eye.
Jiang Shi's heart tightened when he saw this, and he subconsciously wanted to go forward, but his reason stopped him in time.
Today is their wedding day, and crying at the wedding is a wedding custom.
Xie Jing stood aside and silently looked at the bride who was particularly beautiful today, his hands clenched into fists.
This day came unexpectedly, but it was also reasonable.
However, no matter how unwilling he felt, he could only offer his blessings at this moment.
After crying at her wedding ceremony, Yu Tanqi was covered with a red veil and carried on the bridal sedan chair by Xie Jing.
Just as Xie Jing walked in front of Yu Tanqi, Jiang Shi got in front of him.
"Let me carry the bride."
Xie Jing paused, "It has never been customary for the groom to carry the bride into the bridal sedan."
Jiang Shi said gently: "Just because there isn't one doesn't mean it can't be done."
Xie Jing frowned, not wanting him to do so. "We should still follow the rules."
Yu Shangheng said, "Let the groom carry it."
He saw Jiang Shi's unique possessiveness towards Yu Tanqi.
Yu Shangheng held the tablet tightly in his hand with a faint smile on his face.
Qingqing, did you see it?
The son-in-law you chose is very good and loves our daughter very much.
Our daughter will be very happy.
Yu Shangheng spoke, and although Xie Jing was unwilling, he had to watch Jiang Shi take his place, carrying the bride covered with a red veil on his back and walking out the door.
He couldn't help but follow quickly.
The guests watched in amazement as the groom carried the bride towards the sedan chair.
"Is it against etiquette for the groom to carry the bride into the bridal sedan?"
Some people whispered.
"If the bride doesn't have any biological brothers, it's not impossible for the groom to carry her to the bridal sedan chair."
"But doesn't the bride have several cousins? Couldn't the cousins also carry her to the sedan chair?"
"After all, a cousin is not as close as a biological brother. He is an outsider, and the groom certainly doesn't want other men to touch his bride."
"The groom walked quickly and steadily carrying the bride on his back. It seemed like he really wanted to take her home as soon as possible."
Most of the guests in the mansion were Yu Shangheng's relatives, and the Xie family accounted for the majority of them.
They watched with a smile as Jiang Shi carried Yu Tanqi into the bridal sedan. Most of them felt that Jiang Shi was a very good husband, gentle and considerate, and that Yu Tanqi would definitely have a good life in the future.
Until Jiang Shi got on his horse and the sedan chair was carried away, Xie Jing stood there, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
Seeing this, Mrs. Xie thought that he was simply reluctant to leave his poor cousin who had been sickly since childhood, so she walked over to his side.
"Okay, don't stand here anymore. Help your uncle entertain the guests. Your cousin Tan Qi will be back in three days."
Xie Jing lowered his eyes and responded softly.
On this day, almost everyone in the capital had the opportunity to witness this grand wedding reception.
The young and handsome groom sat high on his horse, with an uncontrollable smile on his face. From time to time, he looked back at the bridal sedan, and his expression was even happier than when the top scholar was paraded through the streets.
He looked like a general who had won a battle, full of energy and triumph.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the groom was very happy to marry his beloved girl.
The groom and the sedan chair were surrounded by guards to protect their safety.
Behind them was the bride's dowry, one load after another, as if it would never be finished until dark.
Many people couldn't help but envy and jealousy when they saw the endless dowry.
"This dowry is too much! It must have drained all the family savings, right?"
"I heard that the father of Crown Prince Jiang's fiancée, Lord Yu, the Second Rank Governor of the River, only has one daughter. I guess he gave away most of his wealth as a dowry for his daughter."
"Why does Lord Yu only have one daughter? As such a high-ranking official with so much wealth, it would be great if he had more sons to look after. Now he's giving them all away for nothing. How will he live in his old age?"
"It's not your property, why are you worrying about it? Besides, they have a big family and a lot of wealth, and even in their old age, they still have servants to take care of them. Do you think everyone is as poor as you, barely able to make ends meet, and yet they're trying so hard to have sons? Tsk."
"you!"
The streets are crowded with people and trouble can easily happen if you are not careful.
However, the guards escorting Jiang Shi and Yu Tanqi were well-trained and they blocked the people around them, preventing anyone from getting within six feet of them.
Even if someone started a fight over a disagreement and went towards the wedding procession, they would be stopped immediately by the guards.
Jiang Shi has waited for this day for three years and will never let anyone ruin his wedding with Yu Tanqi.
In the restaurant, Yun Xuan looked coldly at Jiang Shi who was sitting on the horse, with his lips pressed into a straight line.
The boy next to him, wearing a half-mask, laughed and said, "He's almost home, and your people can't even get close to him. You're such a loser."
Yun Xuan didn't say anything.
Cheng Su nonchalantly played with the porcelain bottle in his hand, "Do you want me to help you?"
His help was to throw a few poisonous insects into the crowd to cause panic.
Yun Xuan said coldly: "No, I have other plans."
His eyes fell on the gorgeous and beautiful sedan chair, his black eyes were deep and gloomy.
One can imagine that the bride sitting inside is wearing a phoenix crown and a red bridal veil, and under the festive red veil is a face with exquisite and gorgeous makeup.
She must look good with heavy makeup.
But he had never seen it with his own eyes.
Yun Xuan moved her fingers slightly and stared closely at the bridal sedan as it went away.
But it doesn't matter, he will be able to see it soon.
Only when the sounds of gongs and drums gradually faded away did he look away and turn away.
Cheng Su followed behind him, his eyes sparkling with excitement.
The fun is finally about to begin.
