The emperor's wedding looks glorious, but in fact it is a costly, laborious and troublesome affair.
Of course you have to pay some price to pretend to be that.
The people in the Ministry of Rites and the Supervisor of Rites were all very worried.
All procedures and steps have been practiced countless times.
Throughout the ceremony, everyone's position at each moment has been preset.
From the first step of the queen taking the embroidery room in the dark in the middle of the night, to the emperor and empress finally being able to draw the curtains and get together for a hundred years, to the second day when they went to worship their ancestors, and then the queen took her concubines with her.
It is only completed when you meet the emperor.
For such a tossing thing, of course we have to carry it out to the end, starting from the day before.
On the morning before the wedding, King Gui, together with his two other brothers, went to meet the emperor to congratulate the newlyweds and to fulfill his obligations as best man.
The emperor's face is very good, his spirit is very good, and he is in good condition in all aspects.
He even gave King Gui a chance to be alone with him.
King Gui felt very uncomfortable about this.
He and the royal brother had almost been at loggerheads in the previous fight, and each had stumbled upon each other more than once.
Everyone was very wary of each other.
Under such circumstances, the emperor's brother summoned him alone openly, which made King Gui vaguely see the embryonic form of the trap.
When you're one-on-one, you can say whatever you want.
If you want to say that I suddenly violently hurt others and wanted to kill the king, it is not impossible.
Although King Gui was very interested in regicide, the mess after the regicide was not easy to clean up.
King Gui's plan was not like this.
"I heard that you are very interested in Princess Chu sent by Dachu this time."
Zhou Jianhong said with a smile, as if he didn't care much about his brother's plans for his would-be wife.
"Haha, the emperor is joking."
King Gui laughed and simply admitted the truth: "Actually, someone asked me to find a way to keep Princess Minhui.
At that time, I thought it was not a big deal, wasn't it?
Is she a woman?
So I was reckless and played a little trick."
King Gui then said angrily: "Princess Minhui is indeed very sensitive and intelligent.
Not only did my brother fail to succeed, but he also became disgraced.
In fact, the emperor already knows this."
As he said that, King Gui glanced at the emperor with dissatisfaction, really like a naughty younger brother, blaming his elder brother for not opening and lifting certain pots.
"Women can sometimes do great things."
The emperor's words were of unclear reference and obscure meaning.
King Gui felt a sudden change in his heart and forced a smile: "I don't know what the emperor's plans are for Princess Minhui.
How about simply marrying the ninth prince of Da Chu?
He must be very happy with it."
This is tantamount to making it clear that he is the one who asked him to do it.
"The ninth prince of Da Chu has already been engaged.
How can the eldest princess of Da Qi become a concubine?"
The emperor refused grandly and said with a smile: "I will discuss the whereabouts of the eldest princess with the queen later."
"The Emperor doesn't know yet that the Ninth Prince just broke off the engagement."
King Gui was a little depressed: "It is said that the granddaughter of Jiang Chief Fu suddenly suffered from a serious illness, and she did not want to delay the Ninth Prince's wedding, so she resigned and went to Jing'an Temple to recuperate. " The so-called illness is of course an excuse.
The granddaughter of the chief minister would rather waste two or three years of her youth to recuperate from illness than marry the Ninth Prince, which shows how unfavorable the Ninth Prince's market situation is.
"Then we can't marry the eldest princess to him."
This time Zhou Jianhong didn't even bother to give the reason, and directly said: "Since you love Chu Ji, there are several in the palace now, and they are all good in appearance, so why not How about giving you one as a gift?”
King Gui narrowed his eyes.

The emperor still wanted to put the hat of loving Chu Ji on him, certainly not because he didn't hear his previous explanation.
The emperor still thought to himself and said: "Let's just take the girl from Fang Yushi's family in Da Chu.
Fang Yushi has a long career in officialdom, and there may be a chance to join the cabinet in the future.
Although this girl is a concubine, she can be your concubine.
That's enough."
King Gui's face turned completely cold.
The two brothers looked at each other in silence for a moment.
King Gui bowed and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Where will the emperor be before his wedding?
Nine out of ten emperors will still be in the palace as usual, but inevitably there will always be people who have pre-wedding syndrome and do weird things out of the blue.
Therefore, Zhou Jianhong took only a few people with him and did not reveal his whereabouts.
When he walked out of his palace, no one jumped out to admonish him.
At least, in Miyagi City, the emperor's world is still under control.
The location of Tingyu Palace where Xia Xiaodong lives now is a bit remote.
No way, the core position is of course the emperor and queen, and there are many favored concubines.
Princes, princesses, etc. usually live in designated places.
In fact, there is usually no place for the eldest princess in the palace.
Before the eldest princess becomes the eldest princess, she is just a princess.
It is not until one of her brothers becomes a great treasure that she can be promoted to the eldest princess.
Note, it's just possible.
Just like the emperor's daughter, she doesn't become a princess as soon as she lands.
All titles have certain procedures before they can fall on someone's head.
Usually, the emperor's sister will be honored as the eldest princess only when she gets married.
Of course, when you get married, you no longer live in the palace.
You either go to your husband's house or you are given a princess's mansion.
Nowadays, Xia Xiaodong is not sure who lived in the Tingyu Palace in the past, but judging from the regulations of the palace's buildings, it should be quite noble.
After all, Princess Minhui's appearance was so sudden that the Ministry of Internal Affairs could only allocate a batch of standard supplies.
Standard configuration means standard configuration.
A very standard configuration, eight grand maids, eight rough maids, and eight rough eunuchs.
Three eight twenty-four, a total of twenty-four people.
These people were all temporarily recruited from various places.
It was impossible to say how smart and capable they were, but they were still very familiar with the palace rules and so on.
The emperor's wedding was coming soon, and Xia Xiaodong shrank in the palace very wisely.
As the eldest princess, she does not need to appear at the wedding ceremony.
Rongxiu Palace, where Fourth Miss Qin lives, is not far away, and she has already made two trips here.
As expected of being a master of gossip, even when she came to Daqi, Fourth Miss Qin quickly got into the zone and collected a lot of information that was almost publicly available.
After sending Miss Qin Si away, Xia Xiaodong freshened up, but instead of changing into the loose clothes for bed, he found a homely jacket and put it on.
"Is the eldest princess still asleep?"
The eldest palace maid who was working on the carbon basin turned her head and asked tentatively.
The eldest princess Minhui is very easy to serve and basically has no special requirements.
However, the maids around her still carefully consider the eldest princess's temperament and habits.
"Yeah."
Xia Xiaodong nodded: "I won't go to bed until later.
You don't have to stay in this room all night, go sleep outside."
Miss Qin Si said many things, one of which caught Xia Xiaodong's attention.
