The favorite wife of the black-bellied prime minister

Chapter 1
On the tenth day of March in the 17th year of Daxing Lijingyuan, every household in Shengjing was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and countless people waited in line.Countless dowries were carried out from the noon gate of the imperial palace, winding into a long dragon, and passing through the official road together with the gorgeous and luxurious wedding sedan chairs. Watch the lively heart.

A foreigner who didn't know why asked with bright eyes: "What a big show! Brother, which family's young lady is getting married?"

The people in Shengjing were a little arrogant, turned their heads and glanced at the foreigner, and hummed: "Which lady's marriage can have such a big momentum? This is our Princess Rongchang's big wedding! See? 18 people carry a big sedan chair, Besides Princess Rongchang, who would dare to be so extravagant?"

Emperor Jing Yuan had many daughters, but not every princess had a title. This Princess Rongchang was born of Empress Situ. Although she had a half-sister on her head, she was a well-deserved daughter of the emperor. Awarded the title "Rongchang", which is extremely honorable.

Of course, outsiders also know the name of Princess Rongchang, so they slapped their thighs and said cheerfully: "I just said, I have never seen so many people carrying sedan chairs, and I have never seen such a big sedan chair. Look at this dowry." Lifting and lifting, I don't know which husband-in-law Your Majesty has chosen for the princess?"

Hearing this question, the owner of the restaurant in Shengjing sighed, and shook his head helplessly: "Oh, the princess's marriage is unsatisfactory."

"Eh? Why?" The outsider was at a loss, "I saw that the blue-clothed young man in front of the wedding sedan chair who greeted his bride on a horse is very handsome, young and talented. Why don't you like it?"

The owner of the restaurant sighed again, but he still wanted to show his knowledgeable vision, and said sadly and regretfully: "Have you ever seen the bridegroom in blue clothes? Princess Rongchang married the eldest son of Zuoxiang's mansion. It is said that the The young master has been ill for a long time, unable to speak, and has not been out of the prime minister's house for ten years. Even this marriage cannot be greeted in person in the palace. It is conceivable that his illness is weak. Alas, it is a pity that the young master is a widower , I have married three wives before, and all of them... died of illness."

The last few words were whispered close to the ears of the stranger, and he kept sighing.

The outsider was very surprised: "If the eldest son of the Xiangfu is so unbearable, why is your majesty willing to marry Princess Rongchang to him? Didn't it make it clear that the princess would be widowed or be restrained?"

The owner of the restaurant hastily reached out his hand to cover his mouth: "You can't talk nonsense, be careful to kill your head!"

The foreigner was so frightened that his eyes widened, and when he wanted to ask again, he couldn't get out a word.

The welcoming team went straight to Guanguan Street in the east of the city, and stopped in front of the main gate of Zuoxiang Mansion. The sound of firecrackers, gongs and drums sounded one after another. The young man in blue who was riding on the horse to welcome the bride jumped off, and a servant took the reins immediately. The relatives of the Prime Minister's Mansion who were waiting at the bottom of the steps walked up and said to the middle-aged man in a first-grade civil official uniform: "Father, Princess Jing is welcome, where is the elder brother?"

Zuo Prime Minister Mo Song did not speak, but looked towards the main entrance, empty eyes, no one came out, he frowned and said: "Yu'er, don't miss the auspicious time, kick the sedan door for your eldest brother, and bring the princess in." house."

"How can this be done?!" The boy in the sky blue brocade robe was stunned.

"Heh, fourth brother, the elder brother can't do it. If this noble celestial girl touches his sickly body, she will die immediately. You are the youngest among the brothers, and you are not married. Why don't you let the second elder brother go with me? "Someone sneered while shaking a fan.

Someone immediately echoed, with a tone that was half ridiculed and half run on: "Second brother, I only blame you for marrying a wife too early, otherwise maybe this good thing of giving the marriage might have fallen on your head, Princess Jing's beauty is the world's best!" Wushuang, it would be a pity to follow big brother."

"Third brother!" The blue-clothed boy finally couldn't help but stop him, and raised his eyes to look at his father, the left minister Mo Song's expression was extremely ugly.The young man had no choice but to listen to his father's suggestion, and walked towards the big red wedding sedan chair. He had just taken two steps when he heard a slight and hoarse coughing sound. He looked back and saw a big red wedding sedan chair A slender man in uniform is crossing the high threshold with the help of a servant.

The young man was overjoyed, and jumped up the high steps in three steps at a time. He personally held the man's right arm and asked, "Brother, are you in good health?"

The man's face was very pale, his brows were light, his lips were drawn habitually, his expression was neither sad nor happy, it seemed that he hadn't spoken for a long time, he just nodded slightly.

The young man and his servant led him to the wedding sedan chair. Xi Niang knew that the eldest son of Zuo Xiang was weak, so she lifted the veil hanging in front of the sedan chair very understandingly, took the hand of the bride in the sedan chair, and helped her step by step. Walking out, when the bride stood up straight, she handed over her hand to the groom's.

The bride's hands are very beautiful, with slender fingers, and because the hands were pulled up, a part of the sleeves of the wedding dress fell down, and the wrists like frost and snow were exposed between the sleeves. Coupled with the red coral beads on the wrists, the vivid The color contrast is extraordinarily attractive.The groom officer didn't seem to pay attention, the young man beside him blushed slightly, and looked away unnaturally.

The man's palms were cold.

Bai Lijing, who had been in a trance since she got on the wedding sedan chair, finally regained her senses.

Because he was wearing a hipa, he couldn't see the face of the man in front of him. When he went up the steps, his hand kept holding hers. From the gap under the hipa, he could see his slender fingers with clear knuckles, but they were also extremely pale.

This man really had been ill for a long time as in the legend, and the chill in his palm made her want to break free. The difference between people is really great, the one with the warm palm is not Young Master Mo Wen, but... that person.

Ah.

Thinking of this, Bailijing sneered to herself.

Immediately, she felt that the palm of the man in front of her tightened, and she pulled her wandering mind back, just in time to hear Xi Niang say: "Princess, be careful of the threshold."

Bai Lijing held the hem of the wedding dress with her right hand, and crossed the high threshold without borrowing any strength from the man on the left.

Zuo Xiang's mansion is naturally not as luxurious as the imperial palace, but the wedding procedure is so cumbersome, and after passing all the obstacles, it is the ceremony of worship.Daxing Kingdom respects etiquette and law, even if you are a princess, who is different from the Zuoxiang family, you still need to respect uncles and aunts when paying homage, so the ritual of worshiping three times is no different from ordinary people's homes.

"Worship heaven and earth."

"Two thanks to the high hall."

"Happy husband and wife."

Hearing the ceremonial officer's loud chorus, Bai Lijing slowly bent down to salute.

With lowered eyes, there are only large patches of red in front of her eyes, beautiful mandarin ducks, colorful scarves, and the long legs and feet of the man who will become her husband from now on, but... no face can be seen.All of a sudden, all of this slowly became blurred in the rising water vapor, like a boundless nightmare.

how come?She never thought that there would be such a day when she was already married as a woman, but the groom...how could it not be Han Ye?
