Sacrifice in ancient China was very important. Of course, unlike the West, China mainly worshiped ancestors. Whenever important events happened, they had to offer sacrifices to heaven and tell their ancestors.

In the early morning of this day, in the palace, sacrifices were made to the ancestral temple, heaven and earth.

The king of Jin marries a wife.

The wedding convoy came slowly from Zhuque Gate. Since Xiao Menglan was not from the capital, everything started at the city gate. Both sides of the main street were lined with heavily armed guards, as well as those watching the fun at the back.

In order to show her care, the queen removed her chariot in advance and re-decorated it for Xiao Menglan to use today.

Countless women looked at the huge chariot passing through the main street, surrounded by hundreds of guards, and felt envious. Is this the treatment of marrying into the royal family?

The motorcade slowly arrived at the palace gate, where Yang Guang was already waiting.

The curtain slowly opened, and Yang Guang looked at Xiao Menglan who walked out. Today she was wearing a red dress and a golden crown, with a faint smile in her bright eyes. They didn't even say a word formally. They didn't expect that this would happen.

Married.

She got out of the carriage and came to Yang Guang's side. She felt a little embarrassed at this time. Xiao Menglan was much taller than Yang Guang. After all, she was three years older.

Seeing this, Xiao Menglan bent her knees slightly and tried to maintain her posture as much as possible, lowering her height.

The ceremony officer loudly said: "The Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, the daughter of the Xiao family of the Western Liang Dynasty, who is good-looking, honest and good-natured, and benevolent and respectful. Today, she is presented to the ancestors of heaven and earth and canonized as the royal concubine of the Jin Dynasty. She is the main branch of Maoyan and the husband and wife are harmonious."

Xiao Menglan accepted the booklet and gold seal given by the ceremony officer.

With the gold seal in the book, you are the concubine officially canonized by the royal family. If not, the royal family will not recognize it, and your name is not on the family tree. Because of this, even if Yang Yong does not like his concubine, she is the concubine that Ming Media is marrying.

, it’s difficult to change the genealogy even if you don’t like it.

"Please, King Jin and Princess Jin come to the palace to pay homage."

The two of them walked into the palace in formal attire. Fortunately, Weiyang Palace was not far from the palace gate.

As the two walked, ritual music played. Yang Guang saw that Xiao Menglan had difficulty walking and said, "Stand up straight and walk."

"Your Highness, I'm fine."

"I'm afraid you'll be very tired when you walk up to your father, the emperor, and your queen like this. There are still many gifts behind you, so you have to save some energy."

"Your Highness, I can do it."

"Stand up straight, I'm not afraid of what others say."

Xiao Menglan glanced at Yang Guang gratefully: "Thank you, Your Highness."

Xiao Menglan is indeed taller than ordinary women when she stands straight, and she looks even more slender when she is thin.

Yang Guang said softly: "Mother, you are so proud." Xiao Menglan blushed again.

The emperor wore a formal dragon robe, the queen wore a crown of nine dragons and four phoenixes, and her clothes were extremely long.

"My son, I pay my respects to my father, the emperor, and my queen."

The two of them knelt down and worshiped their parents. The emperor smiled and said, "Get straight." The queen even smiled happily, and it was obvious that she was very satisfied with her daughter-in-law.

During this period of time, Xiao Menglan lived in the palace. She was a smart person and could learn etiquette without feeling cumbersome. Of all the people Empress Dugu had met, Xiao Menglan was the only young woman who really couldn't fault her.

"Your Majesty, please pray to the ancestral temple."

As the etiquette officer's voice sounded, the emperor and the empress took the young couple to offer sacrifices to the ancestral temple. This was an extremely cumbersome process, slow and regular.

The royal family, nobles, elders and some high-ranking ministers lined up on both sides, watching the ceremony from a distance.

Yang Jun complained: "The sun is so hot. I'm sweating in these clothes. My second brother's clothes are probably soaked. If I get married, I must choose it in early spring or autumn. In this weather

I really can’t stand it.”

"Third brother, it's not up to us to decide." Xiu'er continued.

Yang Yong glared at his two younger brothers: "Why do you think so much at such a young age? It's not your turn yet."

Yang Jun replied: "Brother, why don't you see the Crown Princess? Did we have another quarrel?"

Yang Yong was too lazy to pay attention to him and did not reply. Instead, he said slightly mockingly: "What does a little brat know about the relationship between husband and wife?"

Yang Liang, the youngest, said: "Yes, you really don't understand the second and third brothers."

Yang Jun and Yang Xiu looked at Yang Liang with doubts on their faces. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he was indeed qualified to say this.

"The second sister-in-law seems to be much taller than the second brother. I'm afraid the second brother can't hold her up." Yang Xiu said to herself.

Yang Liang nodded: "I also have experience in this, I can let my wife hug me."

For a moment, Yang Yong, Yang Jun, and Yang Xiu were speechless and speechless.

It took more than an hour to pay homage to the ancestral temple. After all the rituals were completed, Yang Guang was so hot that he almost suffered from heatstroke. Looking at Xiao Menglan, her little face was flushed from the sun.

The ritual music was played, and the ceremony officer shouted: "Let's set off for the Jin Palace."

The emperor and the empress did not leave the palace. Empress Dugu took Xiao Menglan's hand and said: "The ceremony is over. Your name is recorded in the Yang family's genealogy. From today on, you are a member of the Yang family. From now on, you and your wife will

Harmony, respect and love will be passed down to future generations as soon as possible."

"Thank you, Queen."

"It's time to change your tune."

"Thank you~Mother."

Queen Dugu smiled heartily: "Go and live a good life."

The wedding procession moved from the palace to the Jin Palace. Yang Guang and Xiao Menglan had completed the ceremony at this time, so they could ride in the chariot together.

After entering the car, with the sound of gongs and drums playing ceremonial music outside, Yang Guang could finally relax a little, and then he half-lyed down, while Xiao Menglan was still restrained, sitting upright.

Seeing this situation, Yang Guang had no choice but to sit up straight.

Accompanied by the sound of rituals and music outside, the two of them were speechless for a moment, and neither of them knew how to speak first.

Meeting on a blind date, marrying first and falling in love later, this is simply the standard beginning of an unhappy marriage in modern times.

Yang Guang thought for a while and spoke first: "You were ready early this morning. I heard that you got up in the middle of the night to dress up and eat something."

"I am not hungry."

I said this but my body was very honest, and my stomach growled unsatisfactorily at this moment.

Following the cooing sound, Xiao Menglan, who often blushes, turned red this time.

Yang Guang smiled and took out the pastries he had hidden in his sleeves: "Mama Li told me to hide something. I didn't know it at first, but I didn't expect it would be useful."

Two small and exquisite pastries appeared in Yang Guang's hand and handed them to Xiao Menglan.

"Your Highness, I am really not hungry."

"Although Aunt Li in my residence is sarcastic, she is very familiar with these things and has taken them into consideration. When we get to the palace later, I will have to greet the guests outside, and you will have to meet with the elder women from various residences, and

Sometimes when you are busy and you don’t know when you will get something to eat, you should take care of yourself first.”

Hearing what Yang Guang said, Xiao Menglan took the fruit, ate it in small bites, and smiled lightly.

"Your Highness, it's so sweet."

Bang

Bang

Suddenly there was an explosion outside. Xiao Menglan was so frightened that her face turned pale. The sound was like thunder on the ground. She reacted and hurriedly pulled Yang Guang to squat down: "Your Highness, be careful."

These two explosions shocked everyone accompanying them.

Yang Guang stopped the panicked man and smiled happily: "Don't be afraid, this is not a thunder, these are called fireworks. They are the gifts I prepared for our wedding, made by the King of Medicine Sun Simiao."

"Fireworks?"

Yang Guang opened the curtain of the carriage, exposed a crack and looked towards the sky. The white smoke that gradually dispersed was actually just two kicks. Then suddenly there was an explosion, which scared Xiao Menglan and she hid back again.

"Your Highness, this is too scary."
