It began to rain drizzle in the second half of the night, and by the time it was light the next day, the entire Ruoshui was shrouded in mist. Looking up at the sky, dark clouds were so thick that they seemed to be able to touch them with just one hand.
Wei Zhen stepped back and stood alone in front of the Changle Hall. He wore a dragon robe, yellow boots and jade belts, showing his emperor's style. The palace servants beside him slightly arched their backs and stared at their toes. They had been holding on for half an hour.
The ceremony officer behind him muttered softly: "It was calculated that it would rain, but it shouldn't be like this. It's strange!"
Wei Zhen had excellent hearing, and heard all his words in his ears, like a needle pricking his chest.
The wind blew, and the white mist in front of Changle Hall became thicker and thicker. When it touched the embroidered dragon robe, it instantly turned into a layer of dew, making it wet. His cold eyes were gradually covered with a layer of white by the haze, and his body was like an icicle. It didn't move until the ceremony team arrived.
Su Yan sat in front of the mirror, looking at himself in the mirror, wrapped in heavy makeup. The rouge made from cold plums turned the originally pale face as pink as plum blossoms, making it so red. A touch of vermilion on the lips, lined with gold threads The flying bird's red robe and the gold and jade phoenix hairpin on his head look so perfect and so sad.
"What are you doing here?" Su Yan looked at Ge Yiyan in his glasses and asked coldly.
Ge Yiyan turned around and sat by the bed, patted the brocade quilt hard, and said with a chuckle: "My sister is getting married, how can I not come to congratulate my brother? Besides, the grudge between you and me should be settled!"
Su Yan stood up suddenly, and his voice became colder for a moment: "Now that I am the queen, you'd better keep your thoughts in your stomach, otherwise I will make you regret it!"
He fell back on the quilt: "Su Yan, Su Yan, you really think of yourself as the queen. In the past, you were just a nameless wild girl, and your mother was just a maid from the countryside. What do you have? The eldest lady who is qualified to be a singer? Now she is not qualified to be a queen! You ruined me, I will not let you go, I will let you lose what you care about bit by bit, I will let you stay in the palace Life here is worse than death!"
"Life is worse than death? Now that your official position is not guaranteed, you still dare to threaten me? Ge Yiyan, you'd better think clearly. From today on, I am the master, and I am the one who controls your life and death. You'd better keep to yourself!" "Su Yan smiled at him and said, "Today is a good day for me. Don't say anything about death or death. It's very unlucky."
Ge Yiyan stared at her with disgust: "Then enjoy this rare good day today. Maybe this will be your last enjoyment."
Su Yan didn't dare to look at his face. It wasn't until his footsteps disappeared outside the door that all the tears came to her eyes. She kept telling herself in her heart, she can't cry, she can't cry! Without Zuo Qing, without him by her side To protect yourself, you must be stronger! However, the more you think about it, the sadder you feel, and the wound in your heart becomes more and more open, like a bloody mouth swallowing up all hope, and sooner or later you will destroy yourself.
The ceremony team sent by the palace has already approached the palace. Starting from the east gate of the palace to the stone steps outside the palace gate, a seemingly endless bright red carpet was laid out. The etiquette officers on both sides blew the antelope horns, and festive music suddenly sounded. For four days, the long street was blocked by people who came to watch. They discussed with each other the protagonists of this national wedding. They all praised the queen's beauty and her majesty's talent. They all said that she was the emperor and empress, born to be a perfect match. They stood along the street. The Imperial Guards were densely guarding the area, numbering in the thousands. They were all wearing red cloaks and their feathers were replaced with red peacock feathers. Their weapons were tied with red silk and satin, which was blown by the wind in the thick clouds.
The imperial guards held their heads high, their faces were solemn, and their bodies were as solid as stone. They were all iron soldiers of Rongguo who fought through life and death. They were all participants and watchers in the rise and fall of Rongguo. They sincerely hoped that Rongguo could become the best in the world.
Therefore, I also hope that the future emperor of Rong Kingdom will be happy, and I also hope that the future queen will be a compassionate person who can also help His Majesty manage the country and benefit the people. Su Yan has deeply gained their trust and admiration, and Su Yan can become
The queen, in their minds, was undoubtedly the best choice. Her life experience and abilities far exceeded all the women in Rongguo. They were proud of this and full of hope for the future.
The good time has come, salutes sounded one after another outside the palace, and five-color smoke bloomed out of thin air, dyeing the haze in the air into five colors. With the support of Xi Niang, Su Yan bent down and walked into the phoenix chariot carried by sixteen people.
A total of thirty-six people in two rows, young men and women, were holding agarwood boxes carved with dragons and phoenixes, which contained ordinary items that the bride would bring with her. A pair of people stepped onto the red carpet in a mighty manner and walked slowly towards the palace.
go.
Along the way, flowers were flying, falling one after another, landing on everyone's heads, floating into the phoenix chariot and falling around Su Yan.
She sat quietly in the phoenix chariot, wearing a red phoenix embroidered wedding dress, which kept fluttering in the wind. She looked at the crowds of people on the roadside and faced the smiling people, but she couldn't smile at all, her face was pale
It was getting heavier now, so she just sighed and looked away.
But in the eyes of everyone, she is a queen who is as pure as ice, as sacred and aloof as a goddess. Her red lips are tightly closed, her eyes are lowered, her cheeks are rosy and faintly pale. Her neck is long and slender, and her delicate collarbone is slightly sunken.
Next, an exaggerated ruby beaded necklace hangs on the collarbone, making the slender neck look very charming.
She kept her head down, all this did not belong to her at all, it was like a nightmare, making herself suffer every moment.
The imperial guards bowed their heads respectfully, the people cheered, and the atmosphere was boiling.
The mist has not faded yet, gathering in the mid-air to form a giant gray-white net. At this moment, it is like water, half joyful and half depressing, half sweet dream and half cruel.
I don’t know how I survived the heavy wedding etiquette. The whole process felt like I had lost my memory. After the daytime worship and ancestor worship ceremonies were completed, it was already dusk.
Su Yan sat on the bed in the palace that was covered with dragons, phoenixes and auspicious clouds, and she suddenly woke up.
Everything seemed like a dream, but it was a complete nightmare.
She lifted up the beaded curtain on the phoenix crown and looked out. The whole room was elegantly and cleanly decorated, and all the furnishings were tied with silk ribbons with pictures of dragons and phoenixes. A pair of birds were placed on the head of the bed, which means flying together. Opposite there was a table with food.
On the table, there are six orchid glazed dishes, with wedding cakes and fruits stacked on top of each other.
The entire bedroom is divided into a main hall and two side halls, which are separated by a movable sandalwood hollow flower-carved door. The door is decorated with a picture of a roc spreading its wings, and a pair of lifelike sharp eyes staring directly at the bed.
She was a little frightened when she saw it.
All the doors in this dormitory are made of sandalwood, and there is a Buddhist fragrance lingering around. Unknowingly, the initial anxiety gradually calmed down, and I was able to think about what to do next!
Now that she and Wei Zhen have become a couple in name, it would be too late to regret it. What makes her even more panicked is how she will get through the next few nights. Wei Zhen really likes her, even though he repeatedly emphasizes that he does not want to be
Forced, but if Wei Zhen gets angry, she can't resist. Even if Wei Zhen is willing to let her go, the fact that the empress of a country is separated from the emperor will definitely attract gossip! But if the two of them sleep in the same bed, they will definitely get into trouble.
.
The more Su Yan thought about it, the more uneasy he became. He simply put down the bead curtain, and everything could only be blocked by soldiers and covered by water and earth.
There were stars outside the window, and everything was quiet and quiet. The garden outside the hall gradually began to hear the chirping of insects and the sound of water. The strong rhythm made Su Yan feel a little sleepy.
In a daze, he saw a figure coming in, and Su Yan suddenly woke up.
"What are you doing?" Su Yan hurriedly avoided Wei Zhen, who was getting closer and closer, and kept some distance away from him.
Wei Zhen was stunned for a moment, then said: "What do you think I am going to do? Belittle you? Ayan, I am not such a person, but I never forget to think that you can accept me! But why, I have paid so much
But I still can't get your heart? Why can Zuo Qing be forgiven by you even though he used you to hurt you over and over again?"
Every time he mentioned Zuo Qing, Wei Zhen always felt resentful, but Su Yan couldn't get angry with him this time. From beginning to end, it was all his fault!
Su Yan reached out and grabbed his broad sleeves. She only reached his shoulders, her petite face was raised, and she looked at him distressedly, "Wei Zhen, it was wrong from the beginning. You shouldn't like me, and neither should I."
Zuo Qing, the three of us should not be involved together."
He closed his eyes in pain and held back tears. His face looked very bad, as if he hadn't had a good rest for a long time.
"I am the emperor of the Rong Kingdom, and I will be the future lord of the six kingdoms. I can have more women, and there is no need to be sad for you. Your heart does not belong to me, but to Zuo Qing."
Hearing such words, Su Yan felt a sting in her heart. She wanted to comfort him, but he suddenly grabbed her shoulders fiercely, "I'm so good to you, but I can't get anything. Why? Why should I let Zuo Qing
Getting something for nothing? You are mine, and he does not deserve it! Ayan, he treats you as a chess piece, and you have always been just a chess piece! As my queen, I will give you the most extreme love in the world, and Zuo Qing cannot afford it!"
Su Yan was so frightened that she quickly broke away. She looked at the door. If she escaped at this time, it would definitely not be the best idea to be seen. However, if she continued to have a stalemate with him, it would be dangerous, so it was not the best idea either.
She warned Wei Zhen: "Don't forget what you said, you said you wouldn't force me!" Seeing that Wei Zhen calmed down and could listen to her quietly, Su Yan felt relieved and persuaded him earnestly: "
I know you're feeling bitter, but feelings need to be slowed down, there's no point in forcing it."
"Then you swear that you will forget him."
…
He smiled desperately, the pain in his heart intensifying, so painful that even the tip of his tongue tasted astringent.
"I won't force you, but I will never let you go!"
Su Yan hurriedly grabbed him, "I'm already married to you, will you agree to let all the singers leave Rong Guo, right?"
His eyelids trembled violently, and the pupils under his eyelids became extremely cold, "I will naturally fulfill my promise to you, but... what does this mean? If you don't consummate the marriage, who do you think I am? Su Yan, wait until you truly give yourself to me.
If you leave me, everyone in the singer family will naturally leave safely. I keep my word, but I also ask you to keep your promise." He finished speaking expressionlessly and staggered out of the palace. The palace lantern was knocked over and the wax oil rolled.
The floor was covered, and the remaining candlelight was finally extinguished at this moment, making the dormitory much darker.
Su Yan collapsed on the bed, breathing heavily.
She thought that as long as she entered the palace and gave him hope, the singer would be able to escape danger, but she did not expect that Wei Zhen would be so stubborn and would not give up until she got him.
Do you really want to consummate your marriage with him?
Su Yan covered his eyes in despair, turned sideways into the bed, and lay there all night with his eyes open without a quilt.
