Chapter 435 4 Wedding
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is the day of Fourteenth Prince's wedding.
The fourteenth wife was still Wanyan, who had been chosen earlier.
After all, when Emperor Kangxi was planning to replace the Fourteenth Princess, the candidate he was considering, Princess Naren, had a big problem.
After that, Emperor Kangxi no longer considered this matter.
Fourteen can only marry Wanyan.
In her heart, Concubine De was extremely dissatisfied with Wanyan.
Wanyan jumped into the lake out of jealousy, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
But in the end, she was the one who was chosen. Even if Concubine De was reluctant, there was no way to change it.
Therefore, Concubine De could only suppress her dissatisfaction, try hard to put on a smile on her face, and do her best to arrange the marriage for the Fourteenth Prince.
She directed the palace maids and eunuchs to work hard, from the decoration of the bridal chamber to the arrangement of the wedding banquet, and personally took care of every detail, just hoping that the marriage would go smoothly.
Although he is not very satisfied with his daughter-in-law, he also hopes that the Fourteenth Prince can live a happy life in the future.
But behind that smile, there is still a trace of helplessness and unwillingness.
The Fourteenth Prince seemed indifferent to this, as if the matter of choosing a wife had nothing to do with him.
He had a pretty good relationship with Shushujueluo and they got along very well with each other on a daily basis.
Therefore, he really had no special expectations as to who the Fourteenth Concubine would be in the end.
In his opinion, no matter who became his wife, it would be difficult to replace Shushujueluo's position in his heart.
Whether it is the Wanyan family or anyone else, it is just a title.
His mind was still more focused on Shushujueluo, and he had no feelings about the upcoming wedding.
On the day of the wedding, the Fourth Master and Lin Mingyan went together to watch the ceremony and offer their blessings.
Thirteenth Concubine Zhaojia followed her closely, probably with the Thirteenth Concubine's instructions.
She accompanied Lin Mingyan into the bridal chamber and went to see the bride together.
Wanyan was sitting in the bridal chamber, her red veil already lifted.
She was neither tall nor thin, and her face could only be described as pretty.
Compared with the three princesses in the room, they are slightly inferior.
But after all, she came from a wealthy family, so she still had some style.
With the support of the red wedding dress and the phoenix crown, it naturally looks noble and imposing.
Zhao Jia said softly to Lin Mingyan: "Fourteenth brother's wife looks very pleasing..."
Everyone was observing the bride, and Wanyan was also observing others.
The focus, of course, is Lin Mingyan, her fourth sister-in-law. After all, this is the sister-in-law she will have the most contact with in the future.
However, as a new daughter-in-law, she could only take a quick look before lowering her eyes shyly.
Lin Mingyan stood in the bridal chamber, but her thoughts drifted away.
In the history she knew, the Fourteenth Master and his Fourteenth Lady were like a pair of enemies.
The relationship between the two was not harmonious and they often quarreled.
I don’t know what their relationship will be like in this time and space?
But she soon put it out of her mind. After all, these were not things she, as a sister-in-law, should worry about.
Anyway, as a sister-in-law, she would get along with Wanyan if she could, and just keep her distance from her if she couldn't.
Lin Mingyan attended the wedding with the intention of watching the fun, but the Fourteenth Master's concubines were not so relaxed.
After all, as a concubine, she will be affected to some extent after the wife enters the house, and it will be a bad influence.
Especially Shushujueluo, who was originally the most favored by the Fourteenth Master.
He even made an exception and allowed her to spend New Year's Eve at Defei's Yonghe Palace.
This was the treatment that a concubine should enjoy, but the Fourteenth Master made an exception for Shushujueluo, a princess.
Such an action, in the eyes of Wanyan, would probably become a thorn in her heart.
With a man like Fourteen who is so confused around, it is difficult for the two of them to live in harmony.
The excitement of the wedding has just passed, and the Dragon Boat Festival is about to come.
The Dragon Boat Festival has always been a major event, although the Manchus did not celebrate this festival at first after they entered the Pass.
But after two generations of emperors, life became better and better, and the Manchus wanted to join in every festival.
Especially since Emperor Kangxi is celebrating his 50th birthday this year, shouldn’t we celebrate all other festivals besides Qingming Festival?
Starting from New Year’s Eve, the Ministry of Rites has been celebrating all festivals on a grand scale.
This year during the Spring Festival, the number of fireworks and firecrackers set off was more than twice as much as before.
The children had a great time watching the fireworks in the palace.
The Dragon Boat Festival is particularly anticipated because the Ministry of Rites has already announced the exciting dragon boat race.
The streets and alleys were filled with a strong festive atmosphere early in the morning, and every household was busy hanging calamus and mugwort.
Especially the aroma of rice dumplings, which fills the streets.
The children were running around the streets excitedly, talking about going to the river to watch the dragon boat race.
And on the riverside, there are crowds of people every day.
People gather on the shore and can see dragon boats being trained in the river every day.
The Fourth Master's mansion was already bustling with activity. The beautiful maids had already hung mugwort sachets on their waists and tied colorful threads on their hands.
The servants were usually busy with various tasks in the mansion, so it was rare for something new to happen during the holidays, so they were naturally very happy.
Especially this year's dragon boat race, it's such an interesting thing that we get together and chat about it whenever we have time.
This is about which dragon boat is the fastest during the dragon boat race during training.
The next sentence goes on to say how powerful the dragon boat racers are when they shout slogans.
Some also said that they went to see it during their last vacation, and there was a man whose arms were as thick as her waist.
They described it vividly, as if the intense scene was right before their eyes, and that kind of fierce energy was exerted on them.
As for Honghui and a group of other children, they brought their luggage and ate rice dumplings, and of course they also wanted to celebrate the festival.
They had sharp ears and knew about the dragon boat race from what they heard from the servants.
Their faces flushed with excitement, their eyes sparkling with curiosity and anticipation.
Want to go out and play!
Go, go, go!
Especially Hongli, when he heard the news, he felt like he had grown legs in his heart.
I can't wait to leave the house so that I can feast my eyes.
But he also knew that his father had said last time that they were not allowed to fly kites outside the house and could only do so in the training grounds.
This time, I may not be able to agree to let him go out.
His little eyes rolled around and he even stopped playing on his favorite swing.
I stood in the scorching sun, waiting at the intersection leading from the front yard to the inner yard.
The wet nurse came to persuade him: "Oh, my Fifth Prince, it's so hot, you're going to wilt standing in the sun."
"Shall we go to the pavilion and eat loquats?"
"The loquats that Fu Jin sent me this morning are fresh, juicy, and big. They're so sweet when you take a bite~"
Hongli was so hot that he almost drooled when he heard the wet nurse's description.
But he still held back, "Go get it for me, I'll eat it here!"
