Chapter 794: Young Master will not go to court tomorrow
Liu Mingzhi turned over and dismounted and nodded towards Liu Zhi'an.
Liu Zhi'an glanced at the eight-carriage sedan behind Mr. Liu and showed a relieved smile.
"Master Hou, congratulations!"
Liu Mingzhi returned the gift one by one, nodding to everyone he knew or didn't know.
Although I am a powerful person, I am still a guest, so I must observe the proper etiquette.
Fu Shan waved his sleeves: "Fire the cannon, let the bride get off the sedan!"
When the firecrackers sounded, Liu Mingzhi walked to the third princess's sedan, opened the red lotus seeds, and grabbed the other end of the string: "Princess, it's time to come down!"
The third princess, who was wearing a red hijab, nodded slightly, grabbed a string, and slowly got off the sedan and followed Liu Mingzhi's footsteps toward the palace.
"The newlyweds come in and play music!"
When the music started to play, the Liu Mansion became completely lively. Not many dignitaries came, because most of the officials sent someone to deliver a gift, but they went to the Prince's Mansion to have a banquet.
In the hall, Mrs. Liu Zhi'an and Liu sat high in the main seat, while Liu Ying and Qi Yun also sat down according to their positions.
The old butler Fu Shan's smile was as bright as a chrysanthemum.
"Worship heaven and earth!"
"Two thanks to Gaotang!"
"Best greetings to the newlyweds!"
"The ceremony is completed and sent to the bridal chamber!"
Ping'er and Yan Rong hurried over and helped the third princess towards the bridal chamber in the inner courtyard under Liu Song's guidance.
Young Master Liu looked at Song Qing, Zhu Run and others who were looking at him eagerly and swallowed his saliva: "Brothers, show mercy when drinking!"
Song Qing swung his arms around Mr. Liu's neck and walked towards the lively courtyard: "Be merciful, I will be merciful, I will never delay your spring night! Don't worry!"
"Commander!"
"Du Yu, why are you guys here too?"
"My father and others went to the Prince's Mansion and of course our brothers came to the Marshal's house. Marshal, you won't welcome them, right?"
"Commander, it's too late even if you don't welcome me. You've already accepted the gifts. We brothers are sure to have this meal!"
Several people burst into laughter immediately.
Because Qi Ya was unhappy and had gone through the Jiangnan bandit suppression incident, it had long since disappeared.
Liu Mingzhi greeted several people to sit down: "Welcome, of course you are welcome, no one can get down without drinking today!"
"Brother, brother is back late!"
"Jiang He, you're so lucky to have arrived! Hurry and take a seat!"
"Brother!"
"An Xin, you are back too. Come and take a seat at your sister-in-law's place. Big brother will lend you flowers to offer to the Buddha. The wedding banquet will be treated as a blessing for you!"
"Brother!"
"Wori, Jiuniu, you are back too. Let me tell you earlier. Brother will get you a separate table in advance to sit down."
Jiuniu laughed honestly, touched the back of his head and looked around: "I'll just sit there!"
"Everyone is sitting down, we brothers are fighting each other, and we won't come home until we're drunk!"
"Okay, I won't come back until I'm drunk, I'll come first!"
"Brothers, okay, okay, no matter how good it is, three... you lose, drink!"
Young Master Liu looked at the big bowl in front of him, gritted his teeth, picked it up and drank it all in a few sips. There was no chance to add water this time. Young Master Liu's face turned red after just one bowl of wine.
"Come again, brothers, there are eight horses...you lose, drink!"
As the sun sets, almost all the guests at the table except Mr. Liu have left, and the big bowls have been replaced by small wine glasses.
Mr. Liu drunkenly ate watermelon seeds and looked happily at Song Qing and others who were so drunk that they almost fell under the table.
Fortunately, these guys were quite sensible and knew that they were going to have a wedding night, so they didn't drink too much. They only made themselves 70% drunk.
In the new room in the inner courtyard, although it was not completely dark yet, two red candles were still lit in the new room, burning and crackling.
Qi Yun and the other girls looked at the third princess who was grabbing the pastry and devouring it, poured a cup of tea and handed it over: "Eat slowly, don't choke. Have a cup of tea to wash it down."
The third princess wiped off the pastry crumbs from the corner of her mouth and burped, then looked at Qi Yun and the girls in embarrassment.
"Sister Yun, Sister Lian'er, Sister Qingshi have made you laugh. My aunt in the palace hasn't let me drink a sip of water since this morning. I'm thirsty and hungry and I can't bear it anymore!"
The girls looked at the charming third princess and burst into laughter: "The rules in the palace are too strict! At least prepare something to put your belly in!"
The third princess's complexion was originally flushed by the candlelight of the wine glass, but now her complexion became even hotter: "The aunt in the palace said that eating too much makes it easier to get up at night, and delays... delays...
Wedding night with flowers and candles!”
When Qi Yun and the other girls heard this, their expressions became strange. They didn't expect that the reason why the third princess hadn't had a drop of water for a long time was because of this.
I have to lament that the rules in the palace are indeed a bit strict.
Fortunately, Qi Yun is someone who has been here before and knows how lonely it is to wait alone in a new house. She also gets hungry. When she first walked in, her stomach was growling for half a day.
What's more, he didn't eat for a whole day. If he didn't come, I'm afraid the third princess would really be hungry all day and all night.
"Just eat and drink enough. My husband won't care about this. Just wait for your husband with peace of mind! My sisters won't delay you here!"
"Sisters, walk slowly!"
Qi Yun and the other girls nodded and took their things out of the room, leaving the third princess alone to continue sitting in the room waiting.
Young Master Liu stood up with somewhat messy steps and pointed at Song Qing and others who were already lying on the ground: "Liu Song, throw these wine barrels into the wing room!"
"yes!"
"Jianghe!"
"Brother!"
"Drink too much?"
An Gouer shook his head: "Brother, I'm fine, I've been controlling it!"
"Come to the study with me! Let's talk!"
"Hey, brother, please come first!"
Liu Mingzhi sat on the chair and looked at An Gouer opposite him, whose expression was calm and his eyes perfectly inherited Liu Yi's gloomy aura.
"How is the artillery issue going?"
"There is still a problem of exploding the barrel, but the probability is so small that it can be ignored. After casting the copper cannon, I am now trying to use an iron cannon. The effect is pretty good, but the problem of exploding bullets cannot be solved yet!"
Liu Mingzhi frowned: "What's going on?"
An Gouer thought for a while and his face became a little downcast: "Maybe the shell of the shell is too thick, and there is also a problem with the fuse. At least five out of ten shells will not explode after they hit the ground. This problem has stumped many people, everyone.
I’m thinking of a solution!”
"Take your time. Artillery is not a small thing. Once something goes wrong, it will be a big problem. Since the formula was improved, there has been no problem of hurting people, right?"
"Don't worry, brother, there is no problem of a gunner being injured, it's just..."
"What's wrong?"
"Brother, I'm sorry. The sound of the artillery has attracted the attention of the local government. If my grandfather hadn't come forward to intercede, the secret of the artillery would probably have been made public. But I have no choice but to cover up the sound of the artillery!"
Liu Mingzhi sighed and stood up and wandered around: "It is indeed a problem. You go back to your room to rest first, and I will think about this matter!"
"Okay, little brother, step back!"
After An Gouer left, Liu Mingzhi locked the door of the study. The artillery matter was important, and the bridal chamber flowers and candles were equally important. It would not be a good thing to let the princess go out in the cold.
I don’t know how many of the maids who are accompanying the bride are the queen’s spies, so there’s no time to delay!
Gently pushing open the door to the study room, the third princess sitting beside the bed suddenly became nervous.
"Three... Madam, have a glass of Hexin wine and rest!"
.............
The hibiscus tent is a warm spring night, but it will be difficult for the young master to go to court tomorrow.
"My little friend, my sister is optimistic about you and is here to cheer you up!"
