After the sedan chair settled down, Xiao Yunyue carefully helped Yuan Miaoyi out.

Yuan Miaoyi held her fan in one hand to cover her face, and held Xiao Yunyue's hand in her other hand as she carefully walked down from the sedan chair.

The skirt of the wedding dress is much larger than ordinary clothes. Fortunately, Yuan Miaoyi has not forgotten her experience of wearing palace clothes in her previous life, so she doesn't look awkward when walking now.

Although everyone could not see but fanned the bride's appearance, just by looking at her manners, one could imagine that she must be a dignified beauty.

There was a brazier burning pine and cypress leaves and grapefruit leaves at the door. Xiao Yunyue was afraid that the flames would burn Yuan Miaoyi's skirt or the silk fabric, so he wanted to use his hands to hold up her skirt.

Nanguan, who was following, received the hint from Xiao Yunyue's eyes and put a large handful of fragrant leaves into the brazier, lowering the flames a lot. Yuan Miaoyi could pass by just lifting her feet slightly, and the flowers and trees above her head didn't even move much.

The eldest princess of Jinyang and Xiao Yinghuai were sitting in the main hall, watching the two worshiping heaven and earth. Needless to say, the eldest princess's face was full of joy, and Xiao Yinghuai's eyes were also quite gentle.

After paying homage to heaven and earth, the close female relatives and the eldest princess went to the new house together, and Xiao Yinghuai was in front to greet the other guests for the banquet.

Naturally, there was no such thing as the wedding ceremony. All those who came were respectable dignitaries from the capital and relatives of the Xiao family. Everyone relies on their identity, so naturally they won't act recklessly.

This time, except for the emperor and empress, the palace did not come in person. All the princes from the East Palace and below were present with their princesses, and the scene was very lively.

Yuan Miaoyi, who had already entered the inner house, could only vaguely hear the sound of the banquet in front of her. She was supported by Granny Cui and Bai Zhi and sat on the couch. She could still feel the hand on the quilt, whether it was red dates or red dates. Longan.

The room was not too noisy. In addition to the familiar voice of the eldest princess, she could also hear the voices of several other unfamiliar female family members. She must have been the wives of other members of the Xiao family.

There will be other relatives of the Xiao family present today, as the eldest princess has long been angry with Yuan Miaoyi.

The Xiao family had a total of five brothers in Xiao Yinghuai's father's generation, and the families had already been separated at that time. Except for Xiao Yinghuai's brother who was in the army, the other brothers were engaged in business and politics.

At first it was just a family division, not a clan division. Moreover, when the family was separated, there were no messes in the rooms, so even though they were not in the same place these years, they still had contact during holidays and important family events.

And precisely because they are not together, there is no interest in the relationship between the sisters, so the relationship between the eldest princess and the sisters-in-law is very close.

Yuan Miaoyi could feel Xiao Yunyue's breath close at hand. Xi Niang on the side asked her to put it down but slapped her. Yuan Miaoyi and Xiao Yunyue looked at each other across the curtain, and Xiao Yunyue suddenly smiled.

On one side, a maid presented the scale beam to Xiao Yunyue. He took the scale beam and took a breath. He opened the curtain very carefully with his hand, for fear of poking Yuan Miaoyi.

The face that was originally obscured by the curtain became clear in an instant. She raised her head and smiled at Xiao Yunyue without shyness.

Yuan Miaoyi's dress today made her look more graceful in her beauty. When she smiled, she was so bright that the room seemed to light up, which caught Xiao Yunyue's attention.

The fourth lady and the fifth lady on the side looked at each other and wanted to laugh when they saw Xiao Yunyue acting like a young boy. But the bride was indeed very radiant, so he couldn't blame him.

The Second Madam who was standing aside looked at Xiao Yunyue and reminded her with some disdain: "Yunyue, it's time to drink Hejiu wine with the bride."

Only then did Xiao Yunyue come back to his senses, and took the gourd cut in half and connected with a red string on the plate beside him. After sitting next to Yuan Miaoyi, he handed the other half to her, and together they Drink the wine inside.

The gourd is filled with fine peach blossom stuffing, which has a spicy and sweet taste, mixed with the bitter taste of the gourd itself.

The newlyweds drink this wine together, which symbolizes that the couple will love each other for a lifetime and share joys and sorrows together. This is a very cherished oath. It is easy for most people in the world to stay together for a lifetime, but there are very few people who can really join hands and share the joys and sorrows.

The two drank the Hexin wine, and the wedding ceremony was completed. The eldest princess and her sisters-in-law went to the front to attend the banquet together, and Xiao Yunyue had to go to the front to socialize before returning.

Before he left, he told Yuan Miaoyi that there was no maid in his inner chamber, and it was difficult for the people waiting in front to come in at this time, so Yuan Miaoyi could only use the people he brought with him first.

However, Xiao Yunyue knew from his mother that the bride would not be able to eat all day today, so she asked Nanguan to prepare some snacks in the small kitchen of the inner house, and Yuan Miaoyi would just ask people around her to bring them later.

Yuan Miaoyi nodded. She was wearing linlang. She couldn't get up at this moment, so she could only sit on the bed and watch Xiao Yunyue leave.

After Xiao Yunyue went out, Yuan Miaoyi relaxed her muscles. The things on her head and body pressed down on her and her whole body ached. Even Yuan Miaoyi, who had always been patient, felt that she was too tired to bear it.

Aunt Cui went to the small kitchen to serve her pastries, while Bai Zhi and the others hurriedly divided their labors to remove the heavy hairpins and complicated wedding dress from Yuan Miaoyi.

When Aunt Cui came back with the food box, Yuan Miaoyi's hair had been loosened and pulled into a simple bun, and her wedding dress had been changed into lighter casual clothes. Yuan Miaoyi was facing The bronze mirror removes makeup from the face.

While Bai Zhi fetched her water to cleanse the noodles, Aunt Cui put out the pastries in the food box one by one.

Xiao Yunyue was always extremely attentive when it came to Yuan Miaoyi. He prepared the pastries that Yuan Miaoyi liked to eat on weekdays, and there was a pot of tea hot on the stove in the kitchen.

After Yuan Miaoyi finished cleansing her face, she breathed a sigh of relief and felt her whole body relax.

The noise in front could only be faintly heard in the inner room. Yuan Miaoyi found that there were some miscellaneous books prepared in the room. Xiao Yunyue thought that Xiao Yunyue had put them here because he was afraid that she would get bored waiting.

She was only halfway through the book when she heard Xiao Yunyue's voice coming back and asked, "Has the banquet dispersed earlier?"

After Xiao Yunyue entered the door, he walked to the table, picked up a piece of pastry and said, "No, mother said she would help me block it and let me come back to accompany you."

Yuan Miaoyi stood up and asked Bai Zhi and the others to fetch some hot water. It was only when she stepped forward that she smelled the smell of alcohol on Xiao Yunyue's body, and the way Xiao Yunyue looked at her was very clear, so she knew that he had not drunk much.

Xiao Yunyue had known for a long time that those bad friends would definitely drink him to death, so he made preparations early and replaced all the wine he drank with plain water. Today, except for the Hexin wine he drank with Yuan Miaoyi, he was not the only person at the banquet. Not a drop of wine.

Xiao Yunyue was used to being independent in the army, and there was no maid to serve him in the palace. After Bai Zhi brought the hot water, Xiao Yunyue pressed Yuan Miaoyi to get up and went to wash up in the side room.

While he was washing, Grandma Cui lit the dragon and phoenix candles beside the bed, and then led the others out.

Today is the wedding night, so there is no need for them to serve in the house.

When Xiao Yunyue came out, she saw Yuan Miaoyi sitting with her chin propped up under the dragon and phoenix candles. The warm yellow light made her face look somewhat charming after taking off her makeup.

After he walked over and took Yuan Miaoyi's hand, he discovered that there was a thin layer of sweat on her palms. From this, he could see that she was nervous under her calm surface.

In fact, Xiao Yunyue's own heart was beating like a drum. The two of them just looked at each other through the candlelight. After a long while, Xiao Yunyue gently pulled the person into his arms.

The dragon and phoenix candle beside the bed burned like this all night.
