Chapter 906 Queen Qin
There were no empty seats at the open-air feast.
The place was full of chatter and noise.
The status of those who can come here to attend the king's wedding banquet can be imagined. They are basically high-ranking officials and dignitaries.
Of course, there are also some big businessmen who have obtained invitations through connections. At this moment, they are walking among various officials, nodding and bowing from time to time, holding hands in compliments, and pulling in connections.
"Shopkeeper Zhou, I heard that your business is getting bigger and bigger..."
"Oh, everywhere, there are some small businesses. From now on, I have to rely on Mr. Fang to take care of me..."
"Sir Wang, I heard that the policy has changed recently. I wonder if you can tell me something..."
"Don't listen to hearsay. The Prime Minister once said that once the national policy is set, it will not be changed easily..."
Before the banquet started, there was a lot of chatter everywhere, and a large number of palace maids were also carrying wine and food to several tables one by one.
On Liu Yuzhi's side, he was standing with the Xuan Prime Minister Yao Tingyu. Seeing the latter's ugly face, he persuaded him nicely: "Brother Tingyu, the wedding of the two kings has been completed. On this special day, why do you have to worry so much."
Yao Tingyu smiled bitterly: "What Brother Liu said is absolutely true."
Not long after, Xiao Yuan walked from one side to the main seat directly above. When they saw him, everyone below them stopped talking for an instant, and then they all faced upwards, bowed their hands and said in unison: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations, Your Majesty——
"
"Haha! Okay! I'm happy today, so don't be restrained and have a drink." Xiao Yuan smiled heartily, stretched out his hand and said, "Everyone, please take a seat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty—" People shouted again, and then they all knelt down in front of their desks.
When the food and wine were served and the feast began, the spirit envoy Cheng Ping was the first to stand up, holding the wine glass and said:
"On behalf of my king, I wish Qin and Xuan a happy marriage and a long life together."
Xiao Yuan was very happy today. When he heard this, he immediately picked up the wine glass in front of him and said with a smile on his face: "I would like to thank Brother Ling Wang here. Come, Mr. Cheng, please, I must not be drunk today."
No return!”
"Your Highness, please." Cheng Ping quickly returned the greeting.
Afterwards, the envoy from Beidi presented a congratulatory message. Since the trade in the north, Beidi has benefited a lot and cherished the relationship with Qin even more. It was the wedding of the King of Qin, so there was no reason not to send an envoy.
Then, all the ministers of the Qin State came forward to toast one after another. The scene was extremely lively, and Xiao Yuan did not refuse anyone who came.
Ding Rong, in particular, trotted over and came to Xiao Yuan, holding a cup, bending down, smiling shyly, and couldn't help but flatter and say nice things.
At this time, Xiao Yuan was already a little drunk, and he couldn't help but joked with a smile: "Master Ding is still so good at talking, okay! Come and do it!"
"Oh, your Majesty is so powerful, I am so impressed by my humble ministers..."
This banquet lasted for a long time, and by the time it ended, it was already dark.
Xiao Yuan drank a lot and reluctantly walked to the wedding room with the help of the palace maid.
There were still red candles burning in the hall, and Lu Yunyan, dressed in a bright red wedding dress, was sitting quietly by the bed, still waiting for him.
At the gate of the palace, her personal maid's charm and flowery language are also waiting on both sides.
After arriving here, Xiao Yuan staggered and pushed away the palace maid who was supporting him, glanced at Feng Qing and the other two, "You guys should go down and rest too."
"No." The two of them responded, bowed and left.
Then, Xiao Yuan pushed open the door and closed it.
He took three steps and walked towards the bed in a drunken state. When she saw his drunken appearance and the smell of alcohol all over his body, Lu Yunyan suddenly said angrily: "On our wedding night, I have been drinking until now, why haven't I drunk you?
die."
"What!? I turned against you!" Xiao Yuan was not happy at that time. He put his arms around her shoulders and kissed her pretty face hard.
"Today, I don't want to teach you a lesson, little girl, to strengthen my husband..."
"You are pressuring me with etiquette again." Lu Yunyan felt aggrieved for a while, but when he turned around to look again, Xiao Yuan was drunk and had already fallen asleep on the bed.
Seeing this scene, she was angry and funny, so she couldn't help but push him hard, but the latter didn't react.
"You, you, you!" Lu Yun said angrily: "Like a pig! Like a pig! Humph!"
She sat on the edge of the bed, her face slightly red, but for the man she loved, she could only help him take off his clothes, push him into the bed with difficulty, and cover him with the quilt...
the next day.
When Xiao Yuan got up, Lu Yunyan was already dressed and sitting in front of the dressing table taking care of things.
Recalling how drunk he was yesterday, he couldn't help but laugh: "Sister Wang."
Sometimes, once you get used to shouting, it is difficult to change your tone.
"Huh." Lu Yunyan turned to the side and rolled her eyes at him, feeling very dissatisfied.
"Haha." Xiao Yuan smiled dryly again, then stood up and dressed. After washing up, he also sat next to Lu Yunyan and hugged her waist.
The latter had almost finished combing and said to him: "It's getting late. Isn't there any meeting today?"
"Nothing happened these two days." Xiao Yuan replied, and inadvertently found the eyebrow pencil on the dressing table, so he picked it up and said, "Let me help you draw your eyebrows."
"Ah?" Lu Yunyan was stunned at first, and then he felt happy and sweet. He nodded lightly and glanced at Xiao Yuan shyly.
He began to draw her eyebrows very carefully.
Her face was red, and her beautiful eyes moved slightly from time to time, secretly looking at the man she loved.
In that era, drawing one's wife's eyebrows was undoubtedly the most tender thing.
The wedding ceremony lasted for several days. A few days later, Xiao Yuan also issued a royal edict in the court hall, conferring Lu Yunyan the title of Queen of Qin.
The Qin State had never established a queen before. This position, whether it was virtuous, caring for the world, or the status of Xuanjun, belonged to Lu Yunyan.
None of the ministers objected to this appointment, and everyone agreed unanimously.
Once the queen is established, Lu Yunyan will be the master of the harem.
However, she handled the relationships with Xiao Yuan's women very well, or in other words, she was a bit calm.
Jealousy has always been inevitable in the harem of kings. This is simply unavoidable.
Lu Yunyan is definitely generous, but her calmness makes Huang Yunwei feel that this queen is not too strong and is therefore more testing.
Huang Yunwei is the niece of Huang Su, the governor of Zhenyang County. To put it bluntly, she is a somewhat cautious woman.
But compared with Queen Xuan, in terms of planning methods, it is simply imaginable.
Lu Yunyan could kill her in a minute, but considering Xiao Yuan's problem, he did not make things difficult for her. Instead, at noon one day, he was called over to have a meal with her.
In front of the round table, Lu Yunyan said with a smile: "If we talk about the family, I am the head wife, and if we talk about the country, I am the queen. Can you understand this?"
