One hundred and seventy third chapter: put down three levels

It is said that Long Yan was so angry that everything turned upside down. The next morning, Emperor Zhao You directly ordered in front of all the civil and military officials that the marriage between Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, Prince Ling's Mansion, Prime Minister's Mansion, and Duke of Qin's Mansion would be postponed until later.

After the funeral of Zhao Wei, the Crown Prince of Yue, we will choose another auspicious day.

In addition, the body of Zhao Wei, the Crown Prince of Yue, was stored in the royal temple as a place to rest. Zhao Qian, the king of Yue, immediately went to Beijing to deal with the matter.

Not only that, the emperor also ordered the wild market in the West Street of the city to be closed and no longer allowed to open privately without an imperial order. He also announced to all parts of the country that anyone who encounters a tiger that harms the place can be caught and killed, and the government will also reward them with silver.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the emperor even rectified various shortcomings in previous imperial decrees. This time, facing the opposition of Dingyuan Marquis, his attitude was also very tough. With thunderous momentum, he began to carry out the Jin Dynasty

Drastic reforms were carried out, and Xu Junze and Long Jiawei became his most advantageous helpers and weapons, and the officials began to be truly wary of this young king.

Although the emperor was afraid of the officials when he showed his power, at least the officials no longer had to worry about which house to go to for the wedding banquet. For this reason, the day before the wedding, Wu'an Hou specially asked people to prepare extra banquets, and he was in a good mood.

My son's wedding was a great success.

On October 26th, in order to wash away the shock caused by various cases in the capital recently, everyone wanted to use happy events to wash it away, so the gate of Wu'an Hou Mansion was rarely crowded.

The crowd that came to attend the wedding banquet overwhelmed the threshold.

Lin Shuran got up early today and took the thirteen children of the Xu family to the Prince of Qing's Mansion first. She received a special invitation from the Princess of Qing. As a family member of Princess Xiqing's mother-in-law, she wanted to see off her bride first, and then attend the wedding banquet at the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion.

"Today's bride is so beautiful!" When Lin Shuran rushed to the Qing Palace, Princess Xiqing had already put on her wedding dress and was sitting quietly by the bed, waiting for the groom to come and marry her. It could be seen that Princess Xiqing was a little agitated.

Nervous and uneasy, the two delicate hands were tightly clasped together.

Princess Qing also looked at her daughter with emotion, as if she thought of another daughter through the daughter in front of her, and she couldn't help but shed tears.

When Lin Shuran saw her, she quickly stepped forward to comfort her and said: "I know that the princess sister is reluctant to let the princess get married, and her daughter is my mother's heart. Don't cry on the big day!"

Crying to marry is not popular in the capital. The more laughter there is during a wedding, the more the host family likes it. Princess Qing nodded, quickly wiped away the tears, and said with tears in her smile: "I am happy, my son will be in the future

You are a real adult!"

"Mother--" Princess Xiqing's voice was choked with sobs. She also had a lot of confusion and fear about the future in her heart. But the moment she put on her wedding dress, she vowed to let herself grow up. Only in this way can she become her parents and brothers.

dependence.

Not long after, the wedding sedan arrived in front of the Qing Palace. Although Jiang Jingxu, the prince of Wu'an Hou, was disabled, today he was not afraid of the world's eyes. He wore a bright red wedding dress with dragons and phoenixes, gold and silver threads, and came to marry his wife in person.

The bride, even the wheelchair he is sitting in today is made of fine rosewood, and is carefully carved with flowers, plants, insects and animals that represent auspiciousness.

Not only that, every gift given to the bride by the Marquis of Wu'an was carefully crafted, and even the small tray was carved with beautiful patterns by highly skilled craftsmen.

This is the first time for Lin Shuran to attend such a high-end and luxurious wedding banquet as a guest in ancient times. The last time such a large wedding banquet was held in the capital, she was the protagonist, but she could only imagine the lively scene outside under her hijab. This time she

But you can see the whole thing.

Lin Shuran stayed in the room with Princess Xiqing, and someone would inform them of the situation outside at any time. One moment, it was said that the sedan chair of Wu'an Marquis' Mansion was about to arrive, and the next, it was said that the new uncle had just arrived in front of the prince's palace and was killed by the young prince and the others.

Stopped. There was a custom in the Jin Dynasty for newlyweds, that is, the bride's brother could make things difficult for the groom. The purpose was to test the groom and also represent his reluctance to give up his sisters in the family to get married.

Today, the young prince Zhao Pei asked his friends Xu Mingchen, Lei Yan and others as helpers. They set up three levels at the gate of the palace and the princess's new house. The first level tested physical strength, the second level tested drinking power, and the third level tested intelligence.

"Who came up with all this?!" Princess Qing was worried that these things would displease her future uncle. After all, Jiang Jingxu had always been in poor health and was afraid that he would not be able to pass the first test. She was even more afraid that her daughter would be rejected by her husband after marrying her because of these things.

happiness.

Lin Shuran thought it was nothing, and said with a smile: "Sister Princess, don't worry, this must have been thought up by those naughty boys to deliberately embarrass Prince Wu'an, but despite their young age, they are very measured in their actions, but

I just want to take advantage of the festive day to have some fun, and I just want to take this opportunity to see the character of this new uncle."

After Lin Shuran said this, Princess Qing felt that it was very reasonable, so she just arranged for the maid to make two more trips to report the situation outside in time.

Soon a little maid came to report, saying that Prince Wu'an did not let anyone else take his place. He promised to fight on his own in all three levels. In the first level, there was a physical test of arm wrestling. The young prince sent Lei Yan, who had been learning martial arts since he was a child.

, has always maintained his own extraordinary physical strength, but he did not expect that when he and Jiang Jingxu, who looked sickly and thin, were competing in an arm wrestling match, they were evenly matched. At the last moment, Jiang Jingxu turned defeat into victory, causing everyone watching to scream in surprise.

"How is this possible!" Princess Qing, who had not seen it with her own eyes, didn't believe it. She thought that Lei Yan must have lost on purpose. Even others thought so, but Lin Shuran hesitated. It seemed that this Marquis of Wu'an

The prince is still very powerful.

The second level is a drinking test. As long as Jiang Jingxu can finish the ten glasses of wine in front of him, he will pass. If he drinks less than one glass, he will lose.

"Isn't this nonsense!" Princess Qing stood up and went out to stop her, "I heard that the prince is not in good health, and the sick and weak are most taboo on drinking. Isn't Pei Geer deliberately making things difficult for others? Don't let this child interfere with a happy event.

Got it!"

At this time, Princess Xiqing, who was sitting on the bed, was also worried. How could her brother come up with such a trick to embarrass the groom?!

Lin Shuran also felt strange, so he went out with the anxious Princess Qing to see what was going on. He saw that the people in the Marquis Wu'an Mansion were a little dissatisfied, saying that the people in the Prince Qing Mansion deliberately embarrassed their eldest son, knowing that his eldest son was drinking.

He was not allowed to drink and hoped that someone else would take his place, but the young prince Zhao Pei said that Jiang Jingxu had just promised to pass the test in person and could not be replaced unless he gave up.
