My Backyard is the Tang Dynasty
Chapter 75: Li Yin welcomes his relatives
In the past two days, besides packing for Li Yin, it is to cooperate with the wedding. Li Shimin and the people in the palace do not need to do anything. Li Shimin has already sent officials to decorate the Liang Palace. In the bridal chamber, there are new bedding and sheets on the bed, red dates, Longan and lotus seeds were also sprinkled on it, just waiting for the wedding night in the bridal chamber.
Different from modern marriages, marriages in the Tang Dynasty were very cumbersome. Generally speaking, six rituals must be strictly followed.
The procedure is basically that the man asks a matchmaker to go to the woman’s house to propose marriage. After the woman agrees to a marriage ceremony, the man’s family prepares a gift and goes to propose. Give the dowry gift to the woman's family, and then the man's family will set the wedding date, prepare the gift and inform the woman's family, and the woman's family can proceed to the last step of welcoming the bride if the woman's family agrees.
Logically speaking, Li Yin should also strictly follow the Six Rites, and the royal rules are more cumbersome, but due to time constraints, Li Shimin and Cui Shao omitted all other items, leaving only one wedding reception.
In addition to welcoming the relatives, Li Yin also dismissed those servants who did not want to go to Yizhou with him. Li Yin knew that if he asked, these servants had no choice but to go to Yizhou with him. After all, they were just domestic slaves. , but coming from the 21st century, Li Min is not yet able to be so cold-blooded for the time being. In the end, the people who are willing to go with him to Yizhou in Liang Wangfu include Jin Daqian's family, thirty servants and all the nurses. After fighting for a lifetime, and knowing that Li Yin has become the governor, everyone shouted to serve under his command, and they couldn't be driven away. To Li Yin's surprise, Qin Huaiyu also planned to go with Li Yin.
After all, Qin Huaiyu is not Li Yin's domestic slave, but Qin Shubao's son, and Li Yin didn't ask him to go with him.
"Aren't you going to speak to Duke Yi?"
Qin Huaiyu hesitated for a while, and finally said: "There is no need, I believe that I will be able to make a lot of achievements by following His Highness, and then I will go back in style!"
Li Yin understands Qin Huaiyu's knot in his heart. Although Yi Guogong recognized him, he still had inferiority complex, and this inferiority made him eager to create a career to prove himself and prove that he was worthy of being Qin Shubao's son. It couldn't be more suitable for the upright and eventful autumn of Sichuan.
Li Yin is very happy to be accompanied by a tiger general. Su Morer also wants to accompany Li Yin but he refuses. He needs to have a pair of eyes on Datang's heart. Somewhat unexpectedly, he is as free as Qin Huaiyu, and he is also Shangguanyi who Li Yin has been staring at.
In order to take root in Yizhou as soon as possible, Li Yin also took away some craftsmen from the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce, from the paper workshop, the printing workshop, the wine workshop, the perfume workshop, and of course, the newspaper office at the end. After the news was conveyed, Shangguanyi took the initiative to sign up.
After Su Mo'er told Li Yin the result, Li Yin thought for a while and decided to take him with him. Yizhou's government affairs really need a talented person in charge. It doesn't matter whether he belongs to Li Chengqian or not. He didn't go to Yizhou for rebellion, and he believed that he was not the only one who stared at him in Yizhou, and only thieves who could be seen were easy to guard against.
On October 20th, the seventh year of Zhenguan, Li Yin got married. The procession to welcome the bride started in the morning, and the bride arrived at the Liang Palace at dusk, because people in the Tang Dynasty considered this time to be an auspicious time for a day.
At this time, the Prince Liang’s mansion was crowded with people, the emperor’s relatives, and court officials filled the entire courtyard. The maids shuttled back and forth to serve food and drink wine were as busy as butterflies flying through the flowers. Li Shimin, Empress Changsun and Concubine Yang were all smiling, Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Ke took their younger siblings to occupy several tables, laughing and laughing together. Today is Li Yin's happy day, and it is rare for them to let go of their usual grievances. A bad face.
Li Yin was so exhausted that he was tormented that day. When he left the house in the morning, he was his son-in-law. He said that the ordinary thing was that the relatives of the bride teased the groom. They were dissatisfied with the lack of ones, and asked Li Yin to compose poems to praise the beauty of the bride. Li Yin learned so many poems from the engineering class.
At the gate of Cui's house, Li Yin was stopped and forced to read Cui Zhuang's poems, which meant to urge the bride to dress up quickly. Li Yin read a few words that Cui Yingying was dissatisfied with, and kept arguing without going out. This girl deliberately made things difficult for Li Yin. Woolen cloth. Under the big sun, Li Yin had no choice but to rack his brains and finally remembered a song he had read on the Internet. At that time, he thought it was strange, so he prepared a few sentences, so he read: "Tonight, the goddess descended to the world, and she evened her makeup in front of the mirror. , has his own mouth of heavenly peach blossoms, no need for makeup and powder to stain his face, he has known each other since the beginning of the two hearts, and once the estrangement is over, he pretends to be late, and he only worries about running to the moon rabbit, and don't paint Emei when he is in love." After reading, Li Min thought Beating the drums, I didn't know if I could pass. After waiting for a while, the accompanying maid told Li Yin that it passed smoothly, and Li Yin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After a while, Cui Yingying wore pearl flower gold hairpins on her head, and a tin hairpin gown, with a light gauze covering her face, and got into the sedan chair with the help of her accompanying maid.
Li Yin thought that it was finally over, and hurried back to the palace, but another carriage blocked the road on the way. It turned out that this was called an obstacle carriage, and he had to recite a poem to let it go. Li Yin almost collapsed, and vowed to make up for it when he went back. Tang poetry and Song Ci, this is too bullying.
Finally squeezed out a poem, and the wedding party finally returned to the palace. At this moment, Li Yin felt as if he had returned to heaven from hell.
After paying respects, he paid homage to the pig's head, which symbolizes fertility, and then Li Shimin, Empress Changsun and Concubine Yang one by one. Li Yin sent Cui Yingying to the bridal chamber, and came out to entertain herself.
Seeing Li Yin coming out, Sizi immediately shouted: "Sixth Brother, I want to marry you when I grow up!" Everyone laughed.
Li Ke teased her: "Why don't you marry me!"
"Can you make candied haws?" Sizi rolled his eyes at Li Ke.
"Hahaha..." Even Li Shimin couldn't help laughing this time, only Sizi opened his big eyes and looked at the laughing person in puzzlement, not understanding what he said wrong.
Li Shimin ate a few glasses of wine, and then went back with Empress Changsun and Concubine Yang. After all, it would be unseemly to stay too long.
Li Shimin left, and the guests dispersed one after another, leaving only Li Ke and Cheng Huailiang. Several people shouted that this was a wedding wine and a farewell wine, and they pulled Li Yin and refused to let him go. Li Yin thought that it would be tonight, so he let go Drinking with them, the apricot blossom wine was one glass after another, and in the end he didn't know how much he drank. In the end, Li Ke thought that Li Yin would still have a wedding night in the bridal chamber, and sent away the already drunk people.
"Liulang, a spring night is worth a thousand dollars, so don't bother me!" Li Yin smiled wretchedly.
Li Yin drank a little too much, said: "Get out!", and stepped into the new house.
