The cannon fodder just wants to survive until the end

Yang Xiuyuan's words made Ming Huaixi feel not only his sincerity, but also his expectations for the future, his expectations for the future of both of them.

Wedding Day

This time, three princes got married at the same time, which was even more grand than the wedding of two princes a month ago. This is rare at any time.

The most dazzling one among them was the princess Ming Huaixi. At that time, Ming Huaixi asked for marriage of her own accord. Emperor Sheng Yuan showed great love for his Princess Mingyue and gave her a dowry which was twice as much as that of an ordinary princess.

On the wedding day, Ming Huaixi's dowry was carried into Prince Xian's palace in a grand manner, and the dowry attendants also went to Prince Xian's palace, filling up an entire street.

The people watching the ceremony had to wait until the procession passed before picking up the wedding money. They had never seen a wedding like this before, and for a moment they all followed the procession, making the entire procession seem to have been extended for a long time.

If someone looked from a high place, they would definitely see a long street full of people. If someone didn't know, they would think it was a parade.

Finally they arrived at Prince Xian's Palace. The attendants who came with the dowry also entered the palace and led the team into the palace. Only then did the people who were watching outside disperse. This was the festive day of the wedding. Normally, no common people would dare to come to a wealthy area like Prince Cheng's Palace.

Because Yang Xiuyuan was a prince and Emperor Zhaoming had never attended any prince's wedding, there was no need for him to pay homage to his parents. He only needed to pay homage to heaven and earth and then pay homage to each other before being sent to the bridal chamber.

With a shout of "send to the bridal chamber", Yang Xiuyuan took the red rope and took Ming Huaixi, who was holding the other end of the red rope, to the bridal chamber together.

The palace was so big and their new home was far away, so they walked for a long time before getting there. Ming Huaixi, with a veil on his head, kept muttering in his heart that the palace was so big and he was exhausted, hungry and tired before he even got there.

She came to the bridal chamber while mumbling, and sat on the bed under the guidance of Yang Xiuyuan and the maid.

Yang Xiuyuan was a prince, so naturally no one dared to disturb him in the bridal chamber. Therefore, after completing some rituals, Yang Xiuyuan went to the front yard to toast. Although it was called a toast, it was actually just two symbolic drinks.

No one would be so tactless as to force the prince to drink at this time. Most of those who came to attend Yang Xiuyuan's wedding were loyal ministers, members of the Wang family, and people who were on good terms with the Wang family.

In the new house,

Ming Huaixi was exhausted after a whole day. She was called up early in the morning to dress up and was not allowed to eat. It was really too hard to bear. Fortunately, Yang Xiuyuan and Ming Huaixi were both of noble status, so no one made trouble in the bridal chamber, otherwise it would have been even more tiring.

"Princess, no, Princess, the prince specifically asked someone to send this over when he left just now." Caiyun brought in a food box from outside the door and took out four dishes and a soup from it.

"He has a heart."

The portions of these four dishes and one soup were not big, just enough for Ming Huaixi to feel 70% full. After eating, Ming Huaixi finally had the energy to take a look at the new house.

Ming Huaixi walked around the room and was quite satisfied. He thought of lying on the bed for a while while Yang Xiuyuan was entertaining the guests.

As soon as I lay down on the bed, I felt something under the sheets hitting me. "What is that? How could I have forgotten about this?"

Ming Huaixi forgot about all the auspicious foods that she had packed under the bed sheets on her wedding day, such as red dates, peanuts, and longans. When she lay down on them, she was caught by surprise.

He quickly got up and with the help of Caiyun, lifted the bed sheet, picked out all the things and put them aside, then put the bed sheet back on, restoring everything to its original state.

This time, Ming Huaixi was about to lie down when the attendant outside called out, "The prince is here."

Ming Huaixi had no choice but to cover her head with the veil again, then sat upright on the edge of the bed, wondering why he came so soon.

With a creak, the door was pushed open.

"You go down first." Yang Xiuyuan ordered the maid to go down first.

After everyone left, Yang Xiuyuan took the next step as instructed by the etiquette officer. He first picked up the wine jug from the table and poured two glasses of wine. Then he picked up the pole beside him and walked towards Ming Huaixi.

Ming Huaixi's head was covered with a veil, so he couldn't see clearly what was going on outside. When Yang Xiuyuan asked people to leave, the surroundings were very quiet. People's hearing will be more sensitive when they can't see, and Ming Huaixi was in this situation.

Ming Huaixi heard clearly the sound of Yang Xiuyuan pouring wine, and she also heard clearly the sound of Yang Xiuyuan's footsteps as he walked towards her. Suddenly, she felt a little nervous, and her hands clenched unconsciously.

Then Yang Xiuyuan walked up to Ming Huaixi and lifted the veil on Ming Huaixi's head with a pole.

Ming Huaixi's eyes suddenly lit up, and then Yang Xiuyuan's face appeared in front of her. Yang Xiuyuan was also wearing a red dress, which made him look more gorgeous than usual.

One of them is sitting on the bed, and the other is standing beside the bed. If a photo is taken at this time, it will probably be used as a template by the photographer.

"Xi'er is so beautiful." Yang Xiuyuan was amazed by Ming Huaixi's appearance today.

Yang Xiuyuan felt that Ming Huaixi's previous gorgeous attire was not as beautiful as she looked today. The fiery red color seemed to be branded in his heart. Yang Xiuyuan stared at Ming Huaixi without blinking.

"Hey, stop staring at me. It's embarrassing. Why are you here so early? Have you settled the guests in the front yard?"

Ming Huaixi couldn't stand this and spoke decisively to break the somewhat ambiguous atmosphere.

"Xi'er is beautiful, why can't I stare at her? My wife is so beautiful, of course I have to stare at her."

Yang Xiuyuan's sudden love words caught Ming Huaixi off guard. Ming Huaixi glared at Yang Xiuyuan and said unhappily, "Speak again."

Ming Huaixi's glare had no intimidation at all, rather it sounded like she was acting coquettishly.

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything. It's because my wife is shy.

The guests in the front yard will be entertained by other people. As a prince, they will feel uncomfortable if I stay there, so I will come to accompany you as soon as possible."

Yang Xiuyuan explained to Ming Huaixi why he came back so early, then he took Ming Huaixi's hand, stood up, walked to the table, and handed Ming Huaixi a glass of wine that he had just poured.

"Now it is time for us to complete our unfinished ritual."

After saying that, he pulled Ming Huaixi to drink together, each of them drinking a glass of wine in their hands.

That's right, each person drank one cup, without any delay, in one gulp. Ming Huaixi thought it was the custom in Zhao State. Seeing Yang Xiuyuan drink it in one gulp, he hesitated for a moment, then drank it too.

The etiquette officer taught all the wedding ceremonies except for Yang Xiuyuan.

As luck would have it, the etiquette officer happened to be out for some business when he was teaching the princes etiquette. When he came back, the princes were a little impatient and said they already knew the rest of the content, so it was just drinking together.

The etiquette officer thought that the mothers of several princes had already had people teach them the procedures, so he did not continue to teach them and let them go. The mothers of other princes did arrange for people to teach them, but who would have thought that Yang Xiuyuan's mother thought that the etiquette officer would teach her, so she did not arrange anyone.
