Chapter 1722 Chu Yi's Big Marriage
At noon, the Minister of Rites stood at the head of the imperial platform and said loudly: "The auspicious time has come, welcome the emperor and queen into the palace."

As soon as Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites finished speaking, drums and music blared on both sides. Chu Yi, wearing a bright red wedding gown embroidered with golden flying dragons, led his queen Li Xiuxiu, and walked in step by step from the end of the red carpet outside.

On both sides are Li Yikun's bodyguards from Yangzhou City, all dressed in red, following in the footsteps of the empress, and escorting Li Xiuxiu into the palace.

The two walked all the way to the imperial platform and stood still.

The Minister of Rites said: "One worship to heaven and earth!"

Chu Yi pulled Li Xiuxiu, and the two knelt down to worship the sky.

"Second homage to the ancestors of the emperor!"

Chu Yi pulled Li Xiuxiu to turn around again, and bowed in the direction of the imperial mausoleum.

"Happy husband and wife!"

Chu Yi and Li Xiuxiu turned slightly, and they stood facing each other, bowing to each other.

Shui Lingyue stood far away at the door, among the group of maids, raised her eyes to look at the tall imperial platform, the two people on the imperial platform, Chu Yi was tall and handsome, Li Xiuxiu was dressed in a dignified and luxurious robe , looks slim, but also quite a bit extravagant.

The two stood together, forgetting each other in warmth, as if they could really see the deep love of the empress.

Shui Lingyue sneered in her heart, this Chu Yi is really a film king, and he doesn't need to rehearse, just do it once, it's amazing.

Originally, when the emperor and empress got married, after the most solemn conferring ceremony was held, they would leave directly and go back to their respective homes.

However, Li Yikun held a heavy army, and it was time for Chu Yi to rely on him, so in this matter, he would also give great consideration to his intentions.

Li Yikun is the general of Yangzhou City, and he is not in the capital all year round. Although he holds a large army, his prestige in Qidu is not very high.

This time, he originally planned to help Xiao Yichen in exchange for a bright future, but in his eyes, Xiao Yichen was ignorant of current affairs, and would rather go for the late emperor's woman than promise to make Li Xiuxiu the queen.

Just when Li Yikun was hesitating, Chu Yi threw an olive branch over, and a secret decree was handed down to Li Yikun—to directly designate Li Xiuxiu as his queen. Naturally, he was as happy as something, and immediately turned the gun and aimed at Xiao Yichen's remnant.

Li Yikun wants to do something in Qi in the future, so he is very concerned about his statement, so it doesn't matter if this big wedding is rushed, but the etiquette of the big wedding must be complete. Like ordinary people getting married, they throw a big banquet. Although Chu Yi is the emperor, as Li Yikun's son-in-law, he has to eat and drink with him at the banquet.

Chu Yi didn't care. Anyway, he was good at acting, and he accompanied Li Yikun the whole time. He was so happy that Li Yikun was so dizzy that his whole body floated up. In addition, there were many flattering civil and military officials surrounding him to show their hospitality , so, by night time, he was quite drunk.

The other civil and military officials saw that Chu Yi was so unrestrained and stood aside with a smile to accompany the wine, so they naturally drank along with them, saying congratulatory words in their mouths.

After dinner, almost everyone was drunk, some were sent out of the palace by their family members, and some fell asleep directly on the wine table.

Chu Yi also drank a little too much. With the support of the eunuch, he was about to go to the Jiaofang Palace where the queen was.

Just two steps away, two red-clothed eunuchs came over and said: "You two father-in-laws have worked hard, the empress asked two servants to come and pick up the emperor."
