Northern Dynasties

Chapter 433
Because the lady in the family got married today, the Hongnong Yang family's settlement in the city was very lively. People from the Jingzhong tribe gathered together to plan the marriage with all their heart.

The mansion of Yang Fu’s family was brightly lit and overcrowded, but there was a strange atmosphere in the festive and bustling atmosphere, especially in the bridesmaids who greeted their relatives. The joyful color does not go well with this festive atmosphere.

"How to do?"

The bridesmaids looked at the cross-court entrance that was tightly blocked by the servants holding sticks, and then turned their heads to look at their companions, each of them was full of helplessness: "Why don't you just rush in? If you continue to wait here, the wedding auspiciousness will be delayed." Then we will have failed Li Xiaoxie's entrustment..."

"Wouldn't it be rude if you did that?"

Some people couldn't help showing embarrassment when they heard this, worrying that making the scene too ugly would offend Hongnong Yang.

But as soon as he finished speaking, the hesitant companion next to him couldn't help but snorted coldly: "Isn't it impolite for the Yang family to force us out? Even if the other family blocked the door, it was just to add to the fun. Enough is enough, but today they really don't allow us to enter!"

Hearing this, the bridesmaids all showed indignation. They just felt that the Yang family was looking down on them by doing this. Even if someone rolled up their sleeves and rushed towards the door with a roar, but the inside of the door had already Surrounded by all the servants, there was no way to get through, and they pushed people out with their hands raised.

At the same time, the laughter of the maids sounded again inside the wall: "Li Lang can't come in, and the lady can't come out. You are not allowed to force yourself while you are waiting for the bridesmaid!"

The bridesmaids had no choice but to subdue, and one of them shouted loudly: "I'm inviting a bride for Li Lang on this trip, please raise your hands high, ladies in the courtyard! Virtue is like jade, so you will never indulge your sex and hinder your marriage..."

"Mr. Lang doesn't have to be an idiot here. What the ladies say is that Li Lang is someone else, not a newcomer today."

The maidservant in the wall shouted again: "The former's children from another family got married, and Li Lang was still the bride. Today, there is a wedding in my house, so how can I be absent? It's not intentional to make things difficult for you gentlemen, it's just that the ladies here come in early to wait, Just to see Li Lang's heroic appearance, but I can't see him, it's really heartbreaking!"

As soon as this remark came out, echoes echoed one after another from all over the inner garden, it can be seen that Li Lang didn't come to welcome his cousin's marriage very much.

All the bridesmaids also looked helpless when they heard this. They really had nothing to do, they could only seek to be higher than the master Hongnong Yang.

But everyone in the Yang family was at a loss at the moment. The number of people who came to congratulate today was much higher than expected, and most of them were female guests. Many people who had little contact with them before also came to the door Hey, at first they thought it was a wave of personal closeness caused by Yang Kuan's return to the court, but they didn't expect the root cause to be here.

This situation was not expected at all. It was originally proposed by them to prevent Li Tai from coming to welcome the bride, but now it is the servants of the various families who came to congratulate the wedding team to block the door, and they are not at all ordered by them. .

"These family members are really a little too much! Even if Li Boshan is charming, how can he make a fuss about another family's marriage?"

It is not only the people outside the courtyard who are complaining in their hearts, but not everyone in the courtyard is enjoying it, especially a delicate girl with bright eyes and white teeth is full of resentment: "These noisy girls are really unruly and disciplined. What does it matter to them how to arrange the wedding and happy event? Besides, even if Li Lang came here to let them see him, so what? Could it be that he still wants to be his bride! It's so perverse and unreasonable!"

"But, but lady, it was the lady who ordered her family to block the door and shout, so the servants from other families followed her..."

The little maid next to her heard her own wife's complaints and couldn't help reminding her in a low voice not to forget who the perpetrator was.

"I only ordered my own family members, and I didn't order them! Even if I did it first, it's not wrong, but it's wrong for them to imitate me!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Miaoyin raised her eyebrows immediately, and her tone became even more annoyed: "I haven't seen my husband for a long time, and I miss it in my heart, what's wrong with hoping to meet here by chance?

But those irrelevant women also want to make fun of it, saying that they are just to admire their demeanor, thinking in their hearts that they may replace me.You all have to look carefully to determine who is the most noisy here. When I get married tomorrow, I will definitely not let these enemies into the cabinet! "

The servant girl hurriedly nodded her head after hearing the words, she immediately poked her head out of the window, but quickly retracted it, and said with a sad face: "My lady, there are too many, I can't even count them! If they are all banned, I will be afraid There will be no guests..."

"No, no! As long as Li Lang knows where to marry, I don't need the help of these female guests!"

Miaoyin was not timid because of the large number of rivals in love, on the contrary, her fighting spirit became more high-spirited, she clenched her fist and beat the small case, and said with a generous and heroic face: "Mr. No one is invincible, I will be in charge of his housework today, if I can't do anything about these disturbing bees and butterflies, how can I be worthy of being a senior wife in this sect!"

At this time, a few muffled coughs suddenly sounded in another room separated by a screen. Miaoyin knew that it was her stepmother Cui Shi who came here with her to remind her to pay attention to her words and deeds. Fist, but still humming unabated: "I have many ways..."

She was cheering herself up here, when suddenly a series of voices came from outside the attic, the little maid looked out, and immediately withdrew her face and said in surprise: "The lady is here, the lady is here!"

"My lady has been here all along, where are you going?"

The little lady was in a good mood immediately after hearing the words, she got up and rushed to the window of the pavilion, and when she looked down, she saw a crowd of people. At the same time, there were many silhouettes of hair buns reflected by the lights in the windows of the attics of other houses. There are many women looking down, and this little lady can't help but feel half proud and half amused.

With Li Tai's arrival, the servants who surrounded the entrance of the inner courtyard also retreated one after another, and the bridesmaids who had been blocked outside for more than an hour were finally able to surround Li Licheng and enter the room.

According to the general etiquette procedure, the bridesmaids will also perform their own performances here to remind the guests and entertain the guests, but they have been blocked outside the door for too long, and now everyone is too impatient. The content of the previous rehearsal has long been left behind.Moreover, there were voices calling for Li Lang all around, and all the young bridesmaids including Li Licheng, the groom's official, became supporting roles.

Li Tai didn't want to be in the limelight, but he really couldn't hear the crowd's voice, so he strode into the green hut where the lights intersected in the inner courtyard, bowed to the surrounding guests and said: "Today, the clan brother pays respects." Welcome the ladies of the Yang family. The two families will celebrate this happy relationship together, and each prepares a banquet to entertain the guests. Today, the master of this house is very polite, but there is still a virtual chairman in the house. I beg you to allow me to hide my humble self. If there is another grand event in the future, we will redouble our efforts to make up for the lack of enthusiasm today.”

After hearing his words, the surrounding noise subsided for a while, and after a while, two maids came out of the attic where Yang's bride was staying, and walked to Li Tai, bowed their skirts and said: "The old lady in the household has It is said that the former Li Lang petitioned for a virtuous bride at the General's Mansion, and it was a good story for a time. Now that he is getting married from among his own families, he should also show it. Happy makeup."

The Yang family didn't intend to let Li Tai come to pick up the bride, but now that they have come, they can't just leave without making a show.After all, his performance in helping Yu Jin's family welcome the bride in the old year is still talked about by people. Now that the Yang family is marrying a daughter in their clan, of course, I hope he can show some serious attitude in front of the masses.

Gele urging makeup is an ancient custom, but it is still somewhat different from the makeup urging poems of the Tang Dynasty.In the Tang Dynasty, the society was prosperous and the culture was developed, especially the development of poetry was a great monument, so the makeup poetry can also develop into a literary genre.

But in today's Southern and Northern Dynasties, the level of social culture is obviously not up to this level, so the makeup is generally sung by folk songs, and those who have a good grade choose the more auspicious chapters in Yuefu.Therefore, the Yang family's request was not considered to be making things difficult, it was just to create a lively atmosphere.

Hearing this request, Li Tai was not stage frightened, and walked out of the Qinglu slowly, and stood in the open space under the light.

Today, because he wanted to entertain guests, he purposely wore a solemn attire with upper and lower garments. It was inconvenient to dance and dance with his arms and legs at the moment, so he chose a relatively elegant ancient Yuefu "Yan Ge" : "Let's be happy today, and we will follow Buyunqu. Tiangong produces fine wine, and Hebo produces carp..."

This is an ancient Yuefu poem about immortals describing a banquet in the fairy world. The lyrics are gorgeous and melodious, and it is also suitable for today's wedding banquet.

Although gods are written in the poem, the gods also need to surround me to provide services, which reflects a high-spirited and confident mental outlook, which is many times more positive than the state of the immortal poems of various painstaking efforts in later generations.

After a song, the surroundings were already filled with thunderous cheers, and the crowd applauded and cheered one after another.After all, what is needed for such an occasion is excitement and joy, not to mention Li Tai's outstanding demeanor and melodious singing, giving people an excellent audio-visual enjoyment.

"I didn't expect him to sing so beautifully. I didn't know it before!"

Inside the attic window, the little lady Miaoyin also kept applauding for the gentleman downstairs, her brows and eyes were full of surprises, but she said with some unsatisfactory meaning: "Singing ancient songs is already so beautiful, if you sing his provocative heart The new words are not even more touching..."

Speaking of this, her brows and eyes were full of eagerness to try, she pulled the little maid and leaned over to whisper in a low voice, the little maid had a look of embarrassment after hearing it, but under the repeated pushing and urging of the lady, she could only helplessly He quickly went downstairs and ran to where the Qinglu was.

After Li Tai sang a song, he felt that the atmosphere was about the same, and he didn't want to continue to show off, and was about to walk out of the courtyard, when he suddenly heard a female voice shouting from behind: "Li Lang, sir, wait a minute, please stay! The master set up the title, thinking that it is to praise the newcomers with deep affection, but not to boast about the beauty of the banquet at home. Your husband only sings old songs, which is too, too perfunctory..."

Many of the spectators around were not lacking in good things. Before, they were embarrassed to continue pestering, but now that someone was picking the head, they naturally no longer hesitated, and Dang even clapped their hands and echoed loudly.

Hearing that there were still people who would not give up, Li Tai was already a little upset, but the voice sounded familiar, so he turned his head and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a maidservant in a dress standing on a lamppost Under the shadows, the appearance was not very clear. Just as she was about to take a few steps closer to see it more clearly, the maid shrank her head and ran to the attic behind after finishing her speech.

Li Tai raised his head to look at the attic, and saw the silhouette on the window screen of the window flashing past. After thinking for a while, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he said with a smile: "When the time is good, you should enjoy yourself. Thanks The masses are wrongly favored, so I will sing a new song today."

As soon as this statement came out, there was another round of cheers from around.Miao Yin, who was about to scold the maidservant for escaping back too quickly, didn't care about it after hearing the words, and turned around and went back to the window.

Li Tai saw the silhouette re-reflected on the window screen, so he sang again: "Chang'an is full of moon, and the sound of thousands of households pounding clothes..."

"Midnight Song", also known as "Midnight Four Seasons Song", belongs to the Wu Shengqing Shang opera in Yuefu. It is divided into four tunes of spring, summer, autumn and winter. Zhao and so on, many famous writers have rhetoric.What Li Tai sang was written by Li Bai, a poet of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Wu Sheng's melody is already mellow and moving. Li Bai's "Midnight Autumn Song" is deeply moving with its blend of scenes, repeated lovesickness, and the trauma and suppression of human emotions caused by war.

In the attics and houses, there are many close relatives who have been in the army for a long time and cannot get together. When they heard the singing, they couldn't help feeling deeply, and even those who were emotional couldn't help crying. My mind continued to fuss.

"He Riping Hulu, my beloved, let's go to Yuanzheng... This person is really annoying. He obviously doesn't see each other often, but he always speaks his mind through a few words!"

Mrs. Miaoyin sang the song just after listening to it in a low voice, and her mood became depressed for a while, but before she felt more sad, she heard the servant girl stamping her feet anxiously and said in a low voice: "Lady, come here, come here..."

The lady looked out, and saw Li Tai striding towards her, and looking up at her with a smile, although there was a window screen covering her, but the line of sight seemed to penetrate directly.

Although they hadn't officially married yet, since a marriage contract had already been concluded, since Li Tai knew about it, he had to enter the house to pay a visit to his mother-in-law.

Mrs. Cui also became more and more satisfied with this son-in-law. After a few casual greetings, she saw that Li Tai was looking at the other room through the video, so she got up with a smile and said that she was going to watch the bride's makeup in front of the master's house. The servant girl went out of the attic.

Li Tai sent his mother-in-law out of the door, turned around and walked back, went to the front of the room and stretched out his hand to grab the back of the screen, the little lady came out with her white forehead against his palm, and said with a smile: "I was discovered by you, Your Majesty is so smart!"
