The Myth of Daqin: The Soul of Yi Xiaochuan

Time flies, and three days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Meng Yi and Meng Yuan led a grand and lively wedding procession to Jiuyuan City.

This huge team, consisting of richly decorated carriages and numerous followers, drove into the city slowly and solemnly like a long, winding dragon.

Meng Yi brought Princess Yushu from Tuan State and her entourage to a mansion in the north of the city. This mansion was less than five miles away from the general's residence and was obviously a carefully selected residence.

The one who had been waiting at the gate of the mansion for a long time was none other than Meng Tian himself. Seeing his brother Meng Yi return, he was filled with joy.

Meng Yi and others did not dare to delay, and quickly dismounted and hurried towards Meng Tian.

At that moment, King Tuan, catching sight of the scene through the carriage window, immediately realized that the world-renowned General Meng Tian had been waiting for him. He hurriedly dismounted from the carriage, galloped briskly toward Meng Tian, ​​and respectfully bowed, saying, "Greetings, General!"

Meng Tian was quick to support King Tuan who was about to salute, and said with a smile: "There is no general here, only my father-in-law and son-in-law." As soon as he finished speaking, he bowed deeply to show his respect to King Tuan. King Tuan also hurriedly stretched out his hand, grabbed Meng Tian, ​​and responded with a smile on his face: "What a good son-in-law! Good son-in-law!" His joy was beyond words.

Yu Shuo stared silently at Meng Tian from within the carriage, her eyes filled with an indescribable emotion. He was tall and imposing, his features chiseled and handsome, his eyebrows raised like swords, his eyes gleaming with determination and resolve. His skin, tanned by the sun, exuded health and vitality. He wore a black battle robe, delicately embroidered with patterns that shimmered with light, giving him an air of majesty and mystery.

Yu Shu's eyes were involuntarily attracted by Meng Tian's temperament. He exuded an incomparable charm, with both the heroic spirit of a general and a restrained gentleness.

When Meng Tian turned to look at her, Yu Shu's heart raced like a fluttering deer. She quickly lowered her head, a shy blush spreading across her cheeks like the setting sun. She secretly thanked him for not noticing her gaffe, but at the same time, his face remained etched deeply into her heart.

Meng Tian's eyes were drawn to the beautiful woman in the carriage. He was captivated by Yu Shu at first sight. With her graceful figure, dressed in a pristine white dress, she looked like a fairy descending from the heavens. Her skin was as white as mutton fat, delicate as silk, and radiant with a captivating glow. Her features were exquisite, her eyebrows like a painting, her eyes as bright as stars, a look that shone with tenderness and determination. Beneath her high nose, her lips curved slightly upward, revealing a captivating smile. Her beauty, like a work of art, was captivating, captivating, and Meng Tian couldn't help but be captivated. An urge to protect her surged within Meng Tian.

Since the two were not allowed to see each other before they were officially married, they could only peek at each other from afar.

Then everyone entered the house. It was an exquisite ancient residence. It was nestled within high walls, with a deep courtyard, exuding a sense of tranquility and solemnity.

The exterior walls of the house are made of blue bricks, and the roof is covered with gray tiles, giving it a rustic feel. The gate is tall and solid, with exquisite carvings on it.

A stone path leads through the courtyard to the main house. The main house is the heart of the residence, spacious and bright. It is furnished with exquisite furniture, wooden tables and chairs, and carved screens, all of which embody the grandeur and stability of northern China.

In addition, there are a series of buildings such as wing rooms, study rooms, gardens, etc., which complement the main house and form a harmonious whole.

Meng Tian led a group of guards and left, leaving Meng Yi and Meng Yuan to continue handling the follow-up matters.

Meng Yi solemnly summoned a team of strong, well-trained guards. He clasped his hands together and addressed them sincerely, "In a few days, our General's wedding will take place. The safety of this mansion is entrusted to you, my brothers! I hope you will all be extremely vigilant and absolutely not allow any accidents to occur. We must ensure the smooth running of the wedding!"

Everyone said, "Don't worry, young general, we will protect the safety of the palace."

After everything was arranged, Meng Yi went to the palace's steward and gave him detailed instructions on the relevant matters. Finally, he and Meng Yuan bowed to King Tuan and said goodbye.

After Meng Yi and Meng Yuan left, King Tuan turned around, looked at Yu Shu tenderly, and said softly, "Yu'er, just stay here for the time being. If there's anything you need help with or arrangements for, just tell the servants directly. I believe that General Meng will be able to protect you in the future and keep you safe and happy."

After saying this, he gently patted Yu Shu's shoulder to express his comfort and encouragement.

Hearing her father's words, Yu Shu was deeply moved. She raised her head, eyes shy but firm as she nodded. At this moment, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks, as charming and beautiful as a blooming peach blossom. That touch of shyness made her look even more beautiful and lovely.

Over the next few days, the entire mansion was immersed in a busy and festive atmosphere as everyone worked together to make the final preparations for the upcoming grand wedding.

The palace was decorated with colorful lanterns and red silk fluttering in the wind, and was filled with an atmosphere of joy and peace. Every detail was meticulously arranged to perfection.

The servants were busy cleaning the courtyard, wiping the doors and windows, and arranging the tables and chairs; the chefs carefully prepared a variety of delicacies to ensure the richness and deliciousness of the wedding banquet; the tailors worked day and night to make gorgeous and exquisite wedding dresses and formal gowns... Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.

In this busy atmosphere, Yu Shu was not idle either. She often found opportunities to communicate with the maids in the mansion, learning about the living habits and customs here. She was extremely intelligent and quickly mastered a lot of knowledge.

At the same time, she also personally participated in some wedding preparations, such as selecting fabrics to make sachets, or drawing patterns to decorate the wedding room. Every small action was filled with her expectations and longings for her future life.

On the other hand, although Meng Tian was in the military camp, he was always thinking about Yu Shu.

As the days passed, the wedding date finally approached.

The wedding day.

The wedding procession of Meng Tian and Yu Shu marched through the bustling streets of Jiuyuan City. At the front were drummers, playing cheerful music, the thumping of drums radiating joy. Following behind were maids bearing flowers and ribbons, dancing gracefully, adding a touch of elegance and romance to the procession.

Meng Tian is riding a steed, looking handsome and majestic, with a happy smile on his face. He is wearing a gorgeous wedding dress embroidered with exquisite patterns, highlighting his noble status.

Yu Shu was sitting in an exquisitely decorated bridal sedan chair. She was beautiful and charming, wearing a gorgeous wedding dress with a skirt that flowed like clouds. The sedan chair was carried steadily by the bearers, who walked in a steady pace, looking solemn and serious.

The wedding procession included various ceremonial guards and escorts, bearing banners and weapons, awe-inspiring. On either side of the procession stood the onlookers, cheering and blessing the newlyweds. The entire city of Jiuyuan was filled with a joyous and festive atmosphere, excited for the wedding of Meng Tian and Yu Shu.

The team walked farther and farther away and disappeared at the end of the street, leaving behind laughter and beautiful memories along the way.

The wedding venue was festooned with lights and festive festivities, a sweet and joyful atmosphere permeating the air. Meng Tian, ​​clad in his wedding attire, looked majestic and imposing; Yu Shu, adorned with a phoenix coronet and bridal robe, was a breathtaking sight. Amidst the gazes and blessings of the crowd, they slowly entered the ceremony hall and performed the three bows: one to heaven and earth, two to their parents, and finally, husband and wife. From then on, the two were officially married.

King Tuan stood aside, watching his daughter's face filled with a happy smile, and the stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground. He knew that Meng Tian was a man worthy of entrusting his life to, and he believed that he would take good care of his daughter.

As night fell and the lights came on, the bridal chamber, lit with red candles, felt warm and romantic. Meng Tian carefully lifted Yu Shu's veil. In the candlelight, her delicate face was as pure and elegant as a lotus flower emerging from water, a beauty like a fairy.

Their eyes met, filled with deep affection. Then, they drank the wedding wine together, a symbol of eternal love.

After drinking, Meng Tian held Yu Shu's hands tightly and said firmly, "I will never let you down!" This sentence was like a vow, which moved Yu Shu deeply. Tears welled up in her eyes and she responded tenderly, "I hope you and I will stay together forever, never leaving each other and growing old together." After that, the two of them fell asleep in each other's arms...

On this beautiful night, they made an eternal promise to each other, willing to go through the ups and downs of life together.
