"My father-in-law and several high-ranking officials are here, but the governor is not here." Chunhe tied a peony hairpin with rice beads and golden silk on her hair for her.
Ming Lanruo lowered her bright eyes, helplessness flashed across her pretty face, and she murmured in a low voice: "It would be good if he doesn't come."
She also didn't want him to come and see her getting married.
Although this was a false political marriage, she was already his wife in name - he was the son of Concubine Mei and the legendary 'King of Mourning'.
But as his princess, she "remarried". How could he endure such a proud person?
Chunming hesitated for a moment, then turned around and brought over a gorgeous red sandalwood box: "Eunuch Qi sent this to me early this morning. He said it was for the eldest lady to add to her makeup."
Ming Lanruo felt inexplicably sour in her heart when she looked at the red sandalwood box inlaid with mother-of-pearl red emeralds.
When his wife wanted to "remarry", he had to give her a gift in front of others as a foster relative, so that people would know that she was protected by him as a "relative" and not be looked down upon.
She raised her hand and stroked the box gently, and asked softly: "Where is Xiaoxi? Have you sent him to Dongchang?"
Chunming nodded: "In accordance with the eldest lady's instructions, I have asked Eunuch Qi to take the young master to the East Factory. Jinghe will follow him and take care of him. Don't worry."
Ming Lanruo sighed softly: "That's good."
She actually expected that he would not come, but would definitely bring gifts, so she told him that if someone from Dongchang would send something, she would send Xiaoxi to Dongchang.
Let the little devil stay with the big devil for a few days. He has a child to look after and accompany, and he won't put so much thought into her and won't suffer so much.
I wonder what he gave her to add makeup...
She reached out and gently opened the expensive box.
There are three steps in the box, one is an emerald lotus with excellent water quality, one is a southern pearl phoenix, and the other is a palace fan wrapped with red gold and ruby silk.
Each one is exquisite, valuable, meticulously crafted, extremely gorgeous and heavy, and can only be matched with formal attire.
The shafts of each step-shaped hairpin are exactly the same as the one she dropped in Dongchang that day - a round and long hairpin body, about half a finger thick, and engraved with decorative patterns.
There is also a delicate thumb-knuckle-sized pearl nut on the sharp tail of Bu Wag.
This large and round pearl nut will be fastened to the sharp tail of Bu Yao after being inserted into bun.
It is not only a gorgeous and dazzling decoration, but also prevents a heavy step from easily slipping off the bun or stabbing the ladies and ladies wearing the step.
Chunming's keen eyes discovered that there was a light green bookmark under this box of priceless toys. She picked it up and said, "Miss, here is a souvenir from the governor!"
Ming Lanruo snatched it away. She instinctively felt that there was nothing good to say in it.
She opened it and saw a line of small characters with dragons and phoenixes dancing on it——
"I will give you three newly made lanterns to repay the palace lantern Bu Yao that the Concubine Ming Dynasty placed on my throne."
It's so exquisitely crafted and expensive, but a box of priceless jewelry still needs to be sold?
"But... Mr. Qiantose said that this is his wish. You must choose one when you get married today, otherwise he will come to dress you up personally." Chunming added cautiously.
Ming Lanruo froze, he was going to help her dress up?!
No, the big devil will never come just to do her makeup. Dongchang sent several people including his father-in-law to watch the ceremony today.
If she doesn't wear this step later, I'm afraid the big devil will kill her and cause trouble for her tonight!
Moreover, the wedding dress and hijab prepared by the palace for her was made of red gauze embroidered with peonies. It was translucent, so you could see whether she was wearing it or not!
She took a deep breath, endured it, and glanced at San Zhi Bu Yao: "Just the ruby palace fan."
Chunming smiled, took the step wave, and inserted it into Ming Lanruo's bun: "This step wave is really exquisite. The poles are made of red gold with phoenix patterns. The southern pearl on the tip is so big that it is not inferior to the previous ones.
The palace lantern you lost, Miss Second, is a lantern!"
The palace lantern from last time was the most beautiful and valuable one in the young lady's trousseau, and the thumb-sized southern pearl buckle was a treasure. The young lady took out the treasure from the storehouse specifically to welcome the thousand-year-old master out of seclusion.
It turned out that the lady lost her horse somewhere on the way to Dongchang on horseback, which was really a pity.
Ming Lanruo couldn't laugh at all, watching Chunming insert the huge Nanzhu into her and buckle it with her tail.
I scolded Cang Qiao's eighteen generations of ancestors a hundred times in my heart.
The step fell into his hands, and he refused to give it back to her.
Now I actually follow that thing and hit three shafts with exactly the same swing!
Chunming saw that his young lady had a cold, crimson face and looked extremely sulky. Although some monks were confused, she still wisely decided to change the topic——
"Miss, the eldest daughter of the Xu family and the second daughter of the Mo family are outside the yard. Why don't you ask them to come in and stay with you?"
The eldest lady told the emperor that the matter of King Qin marrying an equal wife was not something that should be done in such a grand manner, and that he could just invite some ladies from acquaintances to come. His Majesty was very satisfied with the lady's knowledge and taste, and agreed.
However, Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Mo must have received the instructions from the Minister of Dali Temple and the Imperial Censor, Prime Minister Mo. Except for the adults, Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Mo were not present this time, along with the ladies and ladies who were friends with them.
.
And there were many gifts given.
Although it was not as good as the marriage of Zhou Changle in Prince Qin's palace, where the whole courtyard was filled with banquets and he ate on flowing water banquets for three days.
But Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Mo and others filled the rather spacious main hall of Concubine Ming's Mansion, like a wedding banquet.
Xu Xiuyi and Mo Feiyan placed the gifts and went directly to see the bride.
Hearing this, Ming Lanruo finally showed a smile: "Call them in."
After a while, two girls, Xu Xiuyi and Mo Feiyan, came in with smiles. When they saw the gorgeous Ming Lanruo, who was covered in red makeup, their eyes were filled with surprise.
"No wonder Ming's family has a daughter who is famous in the capital. Sister Ming is really beautiful. How can Zhou Changle compare with her sister if she is a vulgar person!" Mo Feiyan couldn't help but sigh.
Her straightforward and simple compliment made both Ming Lanruo and Xu Xiuyi burst into laughter.
Mo Feiyan's eyes fell on Ming Lanruo's head, and she couldn't help but exclaimed: "This step is so beautiful, it must be extremely expensive. Such a large southern pearl is perfect for my sister!"
Ming Lanruo trembled for a moment and became depressed: "No...it's not good at all!"
It’s hard to get over the topic of this step!
It took a lot of effort for her to restrain herself from taking off the baby steps on her head and throwing them away! This chapter has been completed!
