Blissful Days After Widowhood Chapter 156: King Yu’s wedding

&nbThe people of Beijing love to watch the fun, especially the happy events of the royal family and aristocrats. After a grand happy event, the dowry and betrothal gifts are enough for them to talk about it for a long time after a meal.

&nb It has been a long time since the dynasty had had any big weddings, so the emperor conferred the marriage, and the news that the Princess of Dayue was about to marry General Xiao soon spread from the palace and became the latest topic of discussion in the teahouses and taverns , even in the city wall and the old beggars squatting in the sun to catch the lice to meet and greet each other, but also to mention such a sentence.

&nb Just when everyone was looking forward to this big happy event, another big happy event was quietly but intensively prepared, and then suddenly poured into a pot of boiling oil like a ladle of cold water. There was a sound of thunder in the peaceful capital.

&nbIt was a day when all the officials were resting. It was rare to have to get up and go to court before dawn. Many people were still immersed in their beautiful dreams. The gates of most dignitaries in the capital were blocked. The hurried knock on the door opened, and red invitations flowed like flowing water from Prince Yu's Mansion to the hands of the dignitaries.

&nb"What, the wedding of King Yu, just, just, just today?"

&nbIt is said that all the treasures shops in the city were suddenly sold out this morning. It is said that they all came to buy gifts for the wedding of King Yu.

&nb The emperor in the palace heard the news early in the morning and knew that he did it on purpose.

&nbBut he thought about it, and scolded "This stinky boy!" That's all.

&nb The Empress Dowager clutched her chest and cried out that her heart was aching. She made all the imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital turn around. The Empress and concubines were busy around the Empress Dowager in order to show their filial piety. What's going on outside.

&nbJun Qianyu has the intention to make this marriage a decent affair. Although the time is too tight and some procedures are not so compliant, there are still not a single custom that should be left behind. He also has the intention to let everyone Everyone knew that he married the owner of Shuangxi Tower, and he sent the dowry gift to Shuangxi Tower early in the morning.

&nb The backyard where Ning Xi and Meng Shuangshuang lived was small and could not fit it, so the entire lobby on the first floor of Shuangxi Building was vacated to place the dowry gifts, which filled the entire lobby with blinding eyes. The silk satin and treasures of various colors were placed like this, for everyone to watch, but there was a circle of guards with big knives hanging around their waists.

&nbNingxi couldn't feel the liveliness outside the house. She was sent back by Jun Qianyu last night. She slept for less than two or three hours, and was pulled up in the early morning to start bathing. Make up.

&nbJun Qianyu originally arranged a lot of maids and maids to serve her, but this place is small, so many people can't squeeze it, and in the end only Ziyun and two people who used to comb the bride's hair and make up were left. Hi Niang.

&nbJun Qianyu left Ziyun to Ning Xi, one is because Ningxi had seen Ziyun when he left Guangzhou at the beginning, he was an acquaintance, and he was more comfortable with him, and the other was because Ziyun Yun has a kung fu in his body, so he can protect Ningxi if something happens.

&nb Now, Ning Xi is soaking in a bucket of water with some spices and herbs added, with her eyes closed, her head resting lazily on the edge of the tub, and a lady behind her is rubbing her hair with egg whites. The other stood by and rubbed her fingers while trimming her nails.

&nb The temperature of the potion was just right, with a pleasant fragrance, and the kneading force behind her was so comfortable that Ning Xi almost fell asleep again.

&nbZiyun and Meng Shuangshuang were outside helping Ning Xi prepare the clothes to wear later. Meng Shuangshuang arranged her wedding clothes one by one and placed them in a convenient position, while still sighing "tsk tsk" : "The craftsmanship of Yunxiangfang is really good. The material is also good. It is like water when you hold it in your hand. If you are not careful, it will slide down!"

&nb Ziyun's heart is a little sour. Could there be something wrong with what Yu Wang prepared?

&nbShe didn't want to look at the wedding dress anymore, she turned around to pack the clothes that Ning Xi had changed, and just bent over to pick up a piece of clothes, a small white porcelain bottle suddenly rolled out from inside.

&nb Ziyun looked back at Meng Shuangshuang subconsciously. Seeing that the latter was still admiring the embroidered patterns on her wedding dress, she gently picked up the small porcelain bottle, took off the cork and took a sniff. I was stunned, she is an ordinary woman, how could she have such a thing on her body?

&nb In fact, Ziyun has never had a good impression of Ning Xi. For her, everyone who is close to King Yu has bad intentions. Although she never dared to think that King Yu would like her, he likes her. The person who was there should never be Ning Xi.

&nb In her imagination, the future Princess Yu should be a noble lady, a great beauty, a noble lady who will make everyone feel ashamed at a glance, and will always be high above. It's not that this ordinary woman who is nothing, just throws it into the crowd and disappears without a trace.

&nb Therefore, Ziyun has always been suspicious that Ningxi must have used some shady means to obtain King Yu. The small porcelain bottle she just found in Ningxi's underwear added to her suspicions. Strong evidence, look, how can ordinary women carry any drugs with them?

&nb When she opened it, it was not the potion she suspected, but..., even Ziyun couldn't tell what it was.

&nb Ziyun has been with King Yu for a long time, and she can be regarded as well-informed. She has seen a lot of drugs on the market, whether they are high or low, and what is it for her? Basically, she could tell at a glance, but she didn't know what Ning Xi was in this bottle, but she knew that it was definitely not something that could be bought with a little money in the black market.

&nb Maybe it was out of the intuition of ups and downs in the rivers and lakes for many years. As soon as Ziyun opened the bottle and saw the colorless, transparent and tasteless pill inside, a fear suddenly rose in his heart, even if he didn't know it at all. What that is, and I know it's never a good thing.

&nbUnexpectedly, Ziyun stuffed the small porcelain bottle into his sleeve.

&nb Meng Shuangshuang, who was behind&nb, was still fiddling with the pile of jewelry for the bride.

&nbNing Xi finally came out of the potion bath and wiped her body with a soft muslin cloth. She felt that her whole body was slippery and her hands were still emitting a faint fragrance. She felt that, for the first time in her life, she looked like a woman. , the soft underwear slipped on her body and slipped down without hindrance, like a lover's hands brushing her body lightly. Thinking of what was about to happen at night, Ning Xi blushed and her ears warmed. After so long, finally Are you going to wait until this day?

&nb In fact, she doesn't really care about this formal wedding, but since he wants it, let him be happy. Besides, to experience such a grand ancient wedding before leaving, It is a worthwhile trip!

&nbThe complex and gorgeous wedding dresses were put on one by one, and the hair was twisted with a dry cloth and spread out to dry. Xi Niang began to open her face to Ning Xi, and long thin lines were on her face. Passing by, rolling up the fine fluff on his face, there is a kind of fine and fine pain, which spreads into fine joy in his heart, if you really want to be a bride, it is like a dream.

&nbPowder and makeup, the powder is a little thick, and the rouge is a little too thick, but that's alright, since getting married, it's always a bit more grand.

&nb The makeup on his face was done, and his hair was almost dry, so he began to comb his hair. The long black hair was tightly coiled with shavings and combed into a complicated woman's hairstyle. , Ning Xi only felt that his head was getting heavier and heavier, and gradually he had to struggle to raise his head. The bride really wasn't that easy.

&nbMeng Shuang came in with a plate of cakes cut into very small pieces: "Ningxi, come and eat something to fill your stomach, you don't know how long you'll be hungry at night, come, open your mouth, be careful Don't get the makeup on your mouth."

&nbNing Xi took the cakes she brought over and ate them one by one, and then carefully drank a little water with a reed tube. He didn't dare to drink too much. , The waist of the wedding dress is very close to the body, and it will not look good if it is stretched.

&nbMeng Shuangshuang put the rest of the pastry aside: "Tell me if you're hungry, and I'll bring it to you."

&nbNing Xi nodded and suddenly remembered an important thing: "Where are the clothes I changed?"

&nbMeng Shuangshuang's eyes swept around: "He was still here just now, hey, where did he go?"

&nbZiyun said calmly: "I put it away."

&nbNing Xi stood up anxiously: "Where is it?" Immediately, he saw a basket of dirty clothes behind the screen, and regardless of the cumbersome wedding dress, he stumbled over to look for it, "Do you have any Don't you see a porcelain vase inside? It's white, less than half the size of your palm?"

&nb Ziyun didn't speak, Ning Xi was so anxious that her tears were about to fall. The medicine in this jar was of great importance. She kept it close to her body all the time. Except when she was bathing, she never left her body. I take a bath by myself, put the changed clothes on the side, take it out immediately after washing and hide it, except today...

&nbNing Xi was so annoyed that she wanted to punch herself hard, but it was just a wedding, how could she be so complacent?

&nb Xi Niang, who was dressing up, was a little anxious: "Miss Ning, the time is coming, and the makeup hasn't been done yet."

&nbNing Xi turned a deaf ear, turned over all the clothes in the dirty clothes basket, and hurriedly looked for them one by one: "What's the matter, why are you gone, where did you go? Obviously just now It's still there." There was a trembling voice in his voice, and his hands were shaking slightly.

&nbMeng Shuangshuang came over with no clue: "What are you looking for?"

&nb"A white porcelain vase, I saw it just now when I was taking off my clothes. It's here, why did it suddenly disappear?"

&nb "Why don't you look for it first, it's always in this room, and you won't run to other places with long legs, or you'd better go and get your makeup done first, I'll stay here for details. Can you find it for you?" Meng Shuangshuang advised.

&nb"No!" Ning Xi said loudly, "This thing is very, very important, I must find it."

&nb Ziyun, who had been silent for a while, suddenly said, "Is it more important than the wedding?"
