After Qi Yuning returned to the palace, he went to Chun Equinox to invite a matchmaker without resting for a moment, and inquired about the marriage. She almost married Lu Yun half a year ago, and she knew a little bit about the etiquette of getting married. After asking, she learned that the etiquette of welcoming a bride was more complicated than that of getting married. The most urgent thing was A Ping’s new wedding dress. Qi Yuning found the most outstanding tailor in Yunyi Pavilion to sew a wedding dress for A Ping to use as a gift. As for Qi Yuan’s clothes, Qi Yuning felt that It doesn't matter if it's a little less refined, as long as the bride looks good. After a busy afternoon, Qi Yuning was still planning to hold a banquet. Time was tight and many of the Qi family's old subordinates in Beicheng couldn't make it. Qi Yuning thought it would be better for Qi Yuan and A Ping to go to Beicheng to hold another wedding banquet. into the night. Lu Zecai came back from Dali Temple. He had taken a rest for the past two days, but Dali Temple had accumulated a lot of work today. He was busy working until dark, and there was still a lot of unfinished work. Seeing Lu Ze enter the room, Lingling stepped forward and said to Lu Ze, "Dad, my uncle and aunt are getting married!" Lu Ze looked at Qi Yuning who was busy on the side in surprise. After Qi Yuning handed over everything to the maid, he wrote down who was responsible for what on the paper, and looked carefully to see if there was anything missing.
After all, this is the biggest happy event in the Qi Mansion in the past fourteen years. "Your Majesty actually agreed to give A Ping the title of Princess Qi?" Qi Yuning nodded and said, "Yes." Lu Ze said: "I heard your Majesty mention this morning that A Ping has a low status. Why did you agree?" Qi Yuning smiled and said, "I mentioned that A Ping is of low status, but it would be great if His Majesty recognized A Ping as his adopted daughter. I just said it casually, but I didn't expect His Majesty to really agree." Lu Ze said: "Your Majesty recognizes A Ping as your adopted daughter?" Qi Yuning nodded and said: "Your Majesty agreed without much thought. It would be better this way. Ah Ping is his daughter, but now that Ah Ping is pregnant, it is not suitable to use her body to expose her. Prince. Being able to marry as His Majesty's daughter is what A Ping deserves. No, now she should not be called A Ping, but Princess Nianxia. " "Princess Nianxia..." Lu Ze said slowly, "The word Nianxia is somewhat familiar." Qi Yuning said: "It's a good thing that Your Majesty can agree. In this way, cousin Lingling will be the legitimate eldest son of my Qi family. The wedding is scheduled for ten days. I will be very busy these days, and you will be busy too. Lingling can only worry about it." The princess will help us a lot." "My mother asked for it," Lu Ze said, "But in these ten days, will it be enough to arrange the happy event?" Qi Yuning said: "If you have time, the maids under me are also capable." Lu Ze said: "If there is anything you need my mother's help with, feel free to ask. After all, she has just arranged Yun'er's marriage." Qi Yuning nodded lightly and said, "Yes." …… After a busy few days, Qi Yuning managed to stay busy with the help of Princess Pingrou. On the night of February [-]th, Qi Yuning took stock of the tea, wine, wedding cakes, and hard dishes required for the wedding banquet. However, he still felt uneasy, so he found a matchmaker and two aunties to confirm the process for Qi Yuan and A Ping. Wait until three quarters of Hai hour. Qi Yuning had already laid down and then stood up. He walked to the window lattice and looked at the stars in the sky. It should be a sunny day tomorrow.
Lu Ze walked to Qi Yuning and said, "You'd better go to bed quickly. You'll be busy early tomorrow morning." Qi Yuning said: "I can't sleep." Qi Yuning looked up at the half-moon in the sky and said, "My parents can see it in the sky, right?" Qi Yuning lowered his head again and said: "When other families pay homage to the high hall, my parents are full of joy. In our Qi family, we only have the memorial tablets of our ancestors..." Lu Ze held Qi Yuning in his arms and said, "General Qi and General Liu will watch in heaven that their children can marry happily, and they will be happy for this. Go to sleep." Qi Yuning returned to the bedside. She really couldn't sleep. Lingling beside her rubbed her eyes and woke up. Lingling half cried and ran into Qi Yuning's arms. "Dear mother! Daddy and mother can't find Lingling." "Ooooooo, mother is crying so sadly." Qi Yuning touched Lingling's head and said, "Did Lingling have a nightmare? You are in mother's arms. Mother will not let Lingling get separated." Qi Yuning looked at Lu Ze and said, "By the way, there will be many people in Prince Qi's palace tomorrow. I will be busy receiving guests, so I will leave this Lingling to you." Qi Yuning whispered to Lingling: "You can't leave daddy even half a step tomorrow." Lu Ze replied, "Yes." Since Lingling had this nightmare, Lu Ze would definitely stay with Lingling. Qi Yuning didn't sleep well all night. When the auspicious time came, it was time to tell the ancestors of the Qi family's great happiness, and to worship various Bodhisattvas. Fireworks bloomed over Prince Qi's mansion early in the morning. Lingling rarely got up early today. She was held in Lu Ze's arms and said: "Huahua, fireworks." Qi Yuning said to Lingling: "Lingling, come to the Eight Immortals Table to pay homage to the ancestors of the Qi family." Lingling got off Lu Ze's arms, walked to the Eight Immortals table, put her hands together and worshiped respectfully: "Grandpa, grandma, come and enjoy the wedding wine of uncle and aunt." Qi Yuning listened to Lingling's words and touched Lingling's little head, "You're so good." Qi Yu'an listened to Lingling's words and looked at the candles burning in the dark night, which seemed to be more prosperous. After everyone paid their respects, the ritual and music team from the church entered. Although A Ping was in the Qi family, she did not avoid the custom of getting married. Marrying a concubine was a big event for King Qi, and he had to walk around Shengjing City. Go out from the side door of Qi's house, and then go through the main door when you come back from welcoming the bride. The guests from Prince Qi's Mansion had all arrived early, and Qi Yuning went to entertain them. After half a day, Qi Yuning was so busy that her feet hurt. After the luncheon, I had some free time to wait for the afternoon worship service. Qi Yuning was resting in the room. Lingling tapped Qi Yuning's legs discerningly, "Mother, are you feeling well?" Qi Yuning nodded and said: "It's comfortable. Thank you Lingling. I didn't expect getting married to be so tiring. I didn't want to..." Lu Ze said from the side: "You are tired because of the wedding. You won't be so tired when you become a bride." Qi Yuning leaned on Lu Ze's shoulder and closed her eyes to take a nap. "Brother, when he comes back from circling the city, you wake me up. I'm too tired. I'll take a nap first." Qi Yuning didn't sleep much last night. She was busy working from morning to noon, so she wanted to take advantage of her free time to rest for half an hour to recuperate.
Lu Ze put Qi Yuning, who had fallen asleep on his shoulder, on the bed, and carried Lingling outside, hoping that Qi Yuning could sleep peacefully for half an hour. "Zer." As soon as Lu Ze carried Lingling out of the backyard of the palace, he met Zhao Chong and Song Heqing. After Lu Ze saw Zhao Chong, he saluted and said, "Your Highness, Miss Song." When Lingling saw Zhao Chong, her little head shrank into Lu Ze's arms, and she only dared to look at Zhao Chong secretly. Zhao Chong looked at Lu Ze and said, "You and the princess are not engaged yet. There are so many people today. It will not be good for the reputation of both of you if you come in and out of the princess's courtyard openly and openly." "Your Highness is right." Lu Ze agreed. Seeing that Lingling in his arms was afraid of Zhao Chong, he said, "Lingling is going to see her grandmother. Your Highness, I will leave first." After Zhao Chong saw Lu Ze leaving, he said to Song Heqing: "This is the backyard of the palace. I can't stay long. I won't disturb you to talk to the princess. I'll leave first." Song Heqing said to Zhao Chongfu, "Yes." As soon as Song Heqing entered the courtyard, he heard Li Chun saying that Qi Yuning was catching up on his sleep, so he did not disturb him and had to leave Chunjiang Courtyard. She originally wanted to find Zhao Chong, but she never expected that Zhao Chong's footsteps were faster. Zhao Chong's shadow was no longer visible here. After Zhao Chong watched Song Heqing leave, he came out from a corner and arrived in front of Chunjiang Courtyard in a grand manner. Seeing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at the beginning of spring, he hurriedly saluted and said: "Your Highness." Zhao Chong said: "I'm thirsty. Go get a cup of Liu'an tea." Li Chun saw that there was no one following Zhao Chong, so he had to accept the order and said: "Your Highness, please sit outside the courtyard and wait for a moment." Neither the princess nor Prince Lu liked Lu'an tea. There was no Lu'an tea in Chunjiang Courtyard, so Li Chun had to go to the front yard to get some Lu'an tea. Zhao Chong did not wait outside the courtyard, but entered the courtyard. When he saw that the door of the main room was not closed, there was a small gap left. When he pushed the door open and entered, he smelled a faint fragrance of stacks. Walking further into the house, the crimson official robe hanging on the hanger stung his eyes deeply. There were many men's things in Qi Yuning's boudoir, including men's shoes and socks, leather belts, and jade pendants. … This place does not look like an unmarried woman's boudoir, but more like a newlywed couple's room. Zhao Chong approached the bed, slowly opened the bed curtain, and saw a beautiful sleeping face. In terms of beauty, Princess Qi has always been recognized as a great beauty in Shengjing. Zhao Chong lightly touched Qi Yuning's face with his hand. It was this face that made his eighth brother willing to fight for the throne.
