Chapter 1014 Nobility
Things are finally going in a good direction, and Dong can breathe a sigh of relief, but the entire metropolis is busy with the empress getting married in three days.
In the women's school, Lu Baohua heard that the empress was going to get married within three days because Xiao Rongyan was seriously ill, and was quite astonished.
Listening to the female members on the side talking about the empress's emphasis on love and righteousness, Lu Baohua remembered how he and Liu Ruofu saw Bai Qingyan and Xiao Rongyan walking side by side on the long street. Xiao Rongyan was very right.
Later, when Bai Qingyan came to the throne, she also guessed whether Bai Qingyan would marry this businessman. After all, Xiao Rongyan was a businessman, and the emperor's husband was in the same position as a queen. North Korea, a bargaining chip to win the support of important officials in the DPRK... There is no need for any real feelings.
Unexpectedly, now that Xiao Rongyan is seriously ill, Bai Qingyan still wants to marry Xiao Rongyan, and to give Xiao Rongyan such an honorable imperial husband.
Lu Baohua once resented Bai Qingyan because of Liu Ruofu's relationship, but he changed his mind about Bai Qingyan after hearing this.
On August 13th of the first year of Yuanhe, Dong Laotaijun, the mother of Dong Qingyue, the governor of Dengzhou, and Cui Shi, Dong Qingyue's wife, arrived in the capital city.
Empress Dowager Dong was already teary-eyed when she saw Mrs. Dong, and she was even more shocked when she learned that Bai Qingyan was going to get married on August 15th. Regarding the matter of getting married, I didn't expect that the granddaughter who just arrived here would get married the day after tomorrow. If they were later, even the Empress' wedding would not be able to catch up.
After Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Dong explained the reason for Xiao Rongyan's serious illness, they helped Mrs. Dong enter the palace with Dong Situ. Mrs. Dong couldn't help but talk about Dong Changlan's one-and-a-half-year-old twins. Brother An and Sister You.
When mentioning the two children, Bai Qingyan's second aunt, Cui Shi, laughed from ear to ear. Little Cui Shi was worried about being pregnant before, but she didn't expect to have two children, and they were both children. How could this make her unhappy.
"If it weren't for the long journey, I really want to take those two sweethearts with me." Cui Shi and Dong Shi said with joy in their eyes.
Dong Changyuan followed Cui's side, looking at Bai Qingyan who was accompanying Mrs. Dong and Cui's all the way to the palace, feeling all kinds of feelings in his heart. He knew that his cousin was now the empress, and his status was very different from hers. It's not his turn to worry about things, but... Xiao Rongyan is seriously ill, and his cousin still insists on marrying Xiao Rongyan at this time, presumably Xiao Rongyan's illness has reached the point where even the imperial doctors are helpless.
It is true that my cousin is deeply affectionate, but in the future...if that Mr. Xiao is gone, I don't know how sad my cousin will be.
On August 15th of the first year of Yuanhe, the empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty married Xiao Rongyan, a wealthy businessman of Dayan, and made Xiao Rongyan the emperor's husband.
Because of Xiao Rongyan's frail body, in order to take care of Xiao Rongyan's body, Liu Rushi removed a lot of cumbersome procedures and kept everything simple for the wedding.
After Bai Qingyan and Xiao Rongyan received the congratulations from all the officials, the palace banquet followed.
This was the first time Xiao Rongyan met Bai Qingyan after entering the palace.
Empress Dowager Dong ordered Xiao Rongyan to take good care of her illness, and Bai Qingyan was not allowed to meet Xiao Rongyan before the wedding. Xiao Rongyan and Bai Qingyan made mistakes first, and they dared not make Dong unhappy again. While recuperating in the palace, Bai Qingyan was also concentrating on state affairs.
Xiao Rongyan's sick attire looks very similar, his face is so pale that there is no trace of blood, and he needs to be supported by Yue Shi to barely stand up, but... the power of the whole body has not been weakened by the disease, and it is like a god. People are average.
Bai Qingyan was dressed in imperial clothes, solemn and solemn. Xiao Rongyan was wearing a Jinxian crown for the emperor's husband, wearing a brocade robe with a golden phoenix dragon pattern, and a jade belt around his waist. After worshiping the emperor and offering incense, the two stood side by side on the red carpet In front of the fragrant tripod, he was bowed down by all officials.
In the western sky, the black gold is falling slowly, the clouds are falling, and the sunset is purple. The last trace of the warm setting sun is shining on the entire imperial palace in the capital city. The steps and the gold lacquered plinths turned into warm gold as far as the eye can see, outlining the pair of Bi people in formal dresses on the red carpet.
All the officials kowtowed and shouted long live three times.
The two stood side by side to accept the worship of the officials and their family members. Xiao Rongyan quietly grasped Bai Qingyan's jade-like fingertips and said in a low voice, "Are you tired?"
"Fortunately..." Bai Qingyan still had that solemn appearance, her voice was extremely low, "It's just a delay for this day, and I don't know how many memorials will be piled up."
Xiao Rongyan lowered his eyes and rubbed Bai Qingyan's fingertips distressedly. He wanted to say that he would help Bai Qingyan sort out the memorial after going back for a while. Thinking of the Queen Mother saying that he was not allowed to interfere in the government affairs, Xiao Rongyan didn't want to make the Queen Mother unhappy. He said: "Although I can't help A Bao share his worries this time, A Bao can let Lu Taiwei, Situ and Sikong come to handle the memorial together."
"Speaking of this..." Bai Qingyan slightly turned his body in Xiao Rongyan's direction, and said in a low voice, "Da Yan still has the books left by Empress Wu Ji? I still want to read them, and I feel like I've finished reading them." After sending the last book, it seems that Empress Ji has not finished writing."
"Yes, it's just...my mother once said that what she wrote later was too advanced for this era and would not be accepted by the royal family, so she sealed them all up. If you want to read... I will send them later. Yueshi will bring it to you."
Bai Qingyan nodded: "Okay!"
Some officials saw the heads of the empress and the emperor's husband slightly put together, whispering, feeling that the relationship between the empress and the emperor's husband is really good, but they couldn't help worrying about Xiao Rongyan's body, wondering if they could survive it.
There are also aristocratic ladies in the metropolitan city who secretly looked at the high-ranking empress and Xiao Rongyan. When Xiao Rongyan was a businessman, many noble ladies fell in love with him because of his elegant demeanor, profound knowledge, and handsome appearance. If it wasn't for being a lowly businessman... he would be a good husband.
Who would have thought that Xiao Rongyan, who once discouraged them in terms of status, has now become a high-ranking imperial concubine.
That night, dragons and phoenixes were shining brightly.
Bai Qingyan and Xiao Rongyan sat on the dragon and phoenix bed in an orderly manner. After finishing the etiquette, Mother Tong stepped forward to salute and said: "The eldest girl and uncle must be tired, so this old slave will take someone down to prepare water for the eldest girl and eldest uncle. ..."
Nanny Tong said saluting again, turned around and glanced at the maidservants standing in the hall, cleared her throat and walked out, the maidservants bowed knowingly and retreated one after another.
Chun Tao couldn't hide the smile between her eyebrows, she took Chun Zhi to put down the drapes hung on both sides of the hall by the golden hooks layer by layer, and gently exited the hall.
The first update, beg, beg, beg for a monthly pass...
