Chapter 324 and 笄
"That's right. It's getting late." Gu Yunzhen looked at the sky and said solemnly.
Gu Yanfei was a little stunned, isn't this just the beginning? Why is it so late?
The maid pushed Anle's wheelchair into the palace, Gu Yunzhen took Gu Yanfei's arm and walked very fast, almost half dragging and half pushing.
Everyone had an overly bright smile on their faces.
Gu Yanfei looked back and forth at the crowd, always feeling that something happened that she didn't know, and subconsciously pinched her fingers and made a hexagram.
Great auspicious hexagram.
Then when it comes, let it be.
Gu Yanfei followed them through several door curtains until they came to an elegant bedroom. Dressing tables, screens, hangers, tables and chairs were all available. The huanghuali wood coat hangers on the east wall were embroidered on them. A silver-red shirt with a phoenix.
"Sister, sit down." An Le urged happily, and then ordered the maid to press Gu Yanfei to the dressing table.
On the dressing table, there are all kinds of exquisite and complicated head and face jewelry, ranging from hairpins, hairpins, hairpin crowns, gold collars, earrings, jade pendants, gold rings and so on. light.
Gu Yanfei looked at Anle reflected in the mercury mirror, and asked in confusion, "The Hundred Flowers Banquet is about to begin?"
"It's not the Hundred Flowers Banquet." Gu Yunzhen covered his mouth and chuckled.
An Le laughed happily, and with a bit of mystery, he said, "Today is my sister's wedding banquet. The father said that I will personally hold the wedding ceremony for my sister."
"..." Gu Yanfei was startled again, his face a little confused.
Two hundred years later, Gu Yanfei was a little vague about his birthday in this life.
However, she vaguely remembered that it was not on National Day.
Gu Yunzhen saw Gu Yanfei's confusion and took the initiative to solve her confusion: "Yan Fei, today is your birthday."
today? Gu Yanfei was even more puzzled. Isn't her birthday on the second day of March?
Gu Yun was really busy and explained: "Big brother asked from Su Niang."
The second day of the third lunar month was actually Gu Yunxuan's birthday. Gu Yanfei was a few days older than Gu Yunxian.
"So my birthday is February twenty-seventh." Gu Yanfei said almost to himself, with a strange expression.
So, she is fifteen years old today, and she is ready.
Gu Yunzhen looked at Gu Yanfei in the mirror, and said again: "Yan Fei, I originally wanted to give you a wedding ceremony in the house, but eldest brother asked me not to prepare..."
An Le said cheerfully from the side: "Sister Yanfei, your wedding ceremony has been prepared by the supervisor for more than a month."
"I also helped. Today's Qinghui Hall was arranged by me."
An Le took out a silver pocket watch from his sleeve, looked at the time, and hurriedly urged: "It's almost time, hurry up, sister Yan Fei, you have to get dressed up quickly."
An Le happily instructed the maids to dress up Gu Yanfei.
Time is almost up? Hearing these familiar words, Gu Yanfei couldn't help but look at the pocket watch in An Le's hand. This silver curly grass pattern pocket watch is exactly the same as Chu Yi's.
Was this what he meant when he just said it?
There were gentle ripples in Gu Yanfei's eyes, and the corners of her lips curved up.
The palace maid skillfully combed Gu Yanfei a crescent moon bun, and cleverly braided some small braids and combed it into the bun, and wrapped a colorful tassel thread around the bun.
Gu Yanfei combed his hair here, Gu Yunzhen walked over to the hanger and carefully looked at the new clothes hanging on the huanghuali wood hanger.
The silver-red dress with large sleeves hangs neatly on it, the new fabric has no wrinkles, and the skirt is embroidered with a large piece of delicate hibiscus flowers, bright red, pink, peach, water red, hundreds of hibiscus The flowers were in full bloom on the long dress, and there were some gold threads on the material, glowing with a dream-like and radiant brilliance.
After looking at it for a while, Gu Yunzhen asked with certainty, "Is this the Phoenix Brocade?"
"Sister, you are so discerning!" An Le ordered the maid to push the wheelchair over and parked beside Gu Yunzhen.
Gu Yanfei, who had just combed her hair into a bun, also came over and asked, "What Phoenix Brocade?"
Gu Yunzhen picked up the corner of the skirt with one hand, and put the material in the sun to look at it, "I heard that Phoenix Brocade is a new material from Yue Kingdom, and peacock feathers are woven into the material, so it has this beautiful luster. ."
An Le nodded again and again.
This material was ordered by the eldest brother to rush back to Beijing from the country of Yue, and he almost missed it.
An Le pursed her lips, swallowed this little secret temporarily, and introduced the dress with a smile:
"Sister Yunzhen, Sister Yanfei, you see, the embroidery on this is embroidered by the best embroidered lady in the needle palace bureau, and the hibiscus flower on it is a pattern drawn by the emperor himself, isn't it very beautiful?"
"And look at this Ropa, it's double-sided embroidery, with parrots on one side and cats on the other."
“…”
An Le and Gu Yunzhen had a great chat, and they kept talking non-stop, until the maid of the palace coughed twice, reminding her that it was almost time.
An Le hurriedly looked at the time on the pocket watch, and hurriedly urged Gu Yanfei to change clothes.
Today is the first time that the father and brother have asked her to do such an important event, and she can't do it.
The maids pushed Gu Yan to the screen and dressed her.
An Le then ordered the maids to go to the Qinghui Hall next door to check the situation. The Qinghui Hall and the Qinglian Pavilion where they were located were only separated by a small stone bridge, which was on the east side of the stone bridge.
At this moment, in the Qinghui Hall, there are crowds of people, the clothes are fragrant, the temples are shadowed, and the jewels are shining.
The well-dressed ladies and girls have already taken their seats in the hall. Most of them are familiar with each other, chatting and laughing about family affairs, about clothes and jewelry, about which family has a baby, and which family is going to marry. The Lu family and the Hua family almost got married, so many strange eyes glanced at the female relatives of the Amber Mansion.
Mrs. Chang Anbo and Mrs. Lu Er felt their faces were hot and embarrassed.
Mrs. Lu Er also thought about not coming today, but the post from the palace was sent to Chang'an Bo's house. This is a grand event in the country, and Bo's house can't be absent.
Mrs. Lu Er pretended to take a sip of tea, lowered her voice and said to Mrs. Chang Anbo, "Sister-in-law, is it a little early for today's banquet?"
In previous years, after they arrived at Tianhe Garden, they would play in the garden by themselves. They could race horses, play polo, hammer balls, cuju, swim in the lake, etc. The palace banquet started in the late afternoon.
But this year is different. As soon as they arrived here today, the female family members were brought to this Qinghui Hall.
Mrs. Chang Anbo looked at the sun outside, nodded and said, "Yes, this is the beginning."
It's still early for the feast at this hour.
Mrs. Chang Anbo was about to look away, when she saw that there was a servant and other female relatives coming here, it was Mrs. Wei Guogong and his wife.
The Duke of Wei's mansion had a high status in the court, so many family members got up to salute and greet the wife and daughter-in-law of the Duke of Wei, including Mrs. Chang Anbo's wife and sister-in-law.
Everyone was chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became a lot more lively.
After Mrs. Wei and her daughter-in-law sat down, Mrs. Chang Anbo quietly went to ask Mrs. Wei, "Will the palace banquet be hosted by the eldest princess?"
Mrs. Chang Anbo deliberately lowered her voice a bit, but several female relatives around also heard it and pricked up their ears curiously.
As a rule, the palace banquet on National Day was hosted by the queen, but the queen passed away early, and the queen mother did not come to Tianhe Garden today, so the only possible candidate left was the eldest princess.
Many girls in the hall whispered to each other in twos and threes.
Not only Mrs. Chang Anbo, but other female dependents also thought the same way. I guess it was because the eldest princess hosted the palace banquet for the first time, and there was no queen to teach, so the arrangement was a bit messy. Before the time came, they were asked to wait in advance. here.
After thinking about it, guessing, guessing, the female relatives also clicked on it, and did not say much, after all, it involves the royal family.
"no."
Don't want to, Mrs. Wei Guogong shook her head and gave a negative answer.
She didn't lower her voice, and the other female relatives also heard the prestige and came over, with a look of astonishment written on their faces: If it wasn't for the eldest princess to preside over, who else would it be?
Mrs. Wei Guogong continued: "It's not a palace banquet later, it's a wedding ceremony for the second girl."
Her voice was neither high nor low, and it resounded clearly throughout the hall.
The whole place was silent.
Everyone was dumbfounded, and some people even took off the fan in their hands.
This news is really unexpected. It is something that has never happened before in Tianhe Garden for a courtier's daughter.
The initial shock passed quickly, and everyone's expressions became more complicated after thinking about it.
Even if Mrs. Wei didn't say it just now, everyone knew that the Gu family would not be so bold to come here to hold the wedding ceremony. There is no doubt that this was the emperor's intention.
Not far away, a lady in her forties approached and whispered to another old lady who was over fifty years old: "Mrs. Xiao, I heard that the first prince once asked the emperor to marry him in public. Is it true?"
This old lady Xiao is the wife of Xiao Shoufu.
That night, Xiao Shoufu was also in the palace when the eldest prince was begging the emperor to marry him outside the south study room, so Mrs. Xiao naturally knew.
Mrs. Xiao nodded, her eyes flashing slightly.
That night, the emperor did not express his position, but now the emperor is going to personally preside over the ceremony for Gu Yanfei, that is to say, the emperor agreed.
"This..." The middle-aged woman was hesitant to say anything, tightly clutching the handkerchief in her hand, and pursing her lips in disapproval.
This Gu family is not as good as ordinary people with innocent backgrounds.
This second girl Gu has been excommunicated from her family, her grandmother and uncle have committed crimes, and her father's sin has not been cleared. A girl like this is actually going to become the first prince and concubine, and it is even very likely that she will be the future queen!
If it wasn't for the fact that the emperor had only the first son, the eldest prince, everyone would almost think that the eldest prince was the emperor who was rejected by the emperor, and the emperor would choose such an unbearable marriage for him.
The female relatives of many officials of aristocratic families felt mixed feelings in their hearts.
A noble woman in her thirties thought for a while, and said euphemistically, "Mrs. Xiao, is the emperor going to personally preside over the wedding ceremony for the second girl? Is this appropriate?"
Madame Hua spoke very implicitly. On the surface, she was discussing whether today's wedding ceremony was appropriate, but what she really wanted to say was that the marriage between Gu Yanfei and the eldest prince was inappropriate.
Another round-faced woman in her forties said, "I don't think it's right."
Several ladies of aristocratic families next to them all looked in the direction of Mrs. Xiao, holding their faces elegantly, and their hearts were surging: They took advantage of this year's Chao He to bring their daughters to Beijing, in order to let their daughters compete for the position of the first prince concubine. .
I thought that today's Hundred Flowers Banquet would be a great opportunity to show up in front of the emperor and the eldest prince, and there would be an open and secret battle in Tianhe Garden.
But now, they didn't have time to do anything, and they didn't have time to start anything, so how could it end?
These ladies from aristocratic families felt like a bucket of cold water was pouring down their heads, and they looked at each other, some were dumbfounded, some felt injustice for their daughters, and some couldn't hide their unwillingness on their faces.
Men marry, pay attention to the right family, marry wives and virtuous people.
But this second girl Gu needs a good name but not a good name, a talent without a name, and a family background, why should she be the first prince and concubine, just because she can draw talismans? !
The daughter they raised meticulously has good looks, talent, demeanor, and temperament, but she lost to a wild girl who grew up in the countryside!
Mrs. Xiao slowly picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea. Just as she was about to say something, she heard Mrs. Wei Guogong sitting across from her indifferently say: "What's wrong? Back then, Empress Taizu also helped Jingning. Mu Xin, the eldest girl of the Hou Mansion, presided over the ceremony."
At that time, Mrs. Jingning Hou died of blood collapse after giving birth to her youngest son, leaving behind the eldest girl Mu Xin and the younger brother Mu Ying.
Jingning Hou has a deep love for his wife and he did not marry again. Empress Taizu and Mrs. Jingninghou used to be sisters. For fear that others would say that Mu Xin was the eldest daughter of a widow, they took Mu Xin into the palace for half the time.
When Mu Xin was fifteen years old, Empress Taizu personally presided over the wedding ceremony for Mu Xin.
Later, Mu Xin was given marriage by Emperor Taizu to Marquis of Anqing at that time. Before Empress Taizu died, Mu Xin entered the palace and served the Empress Taizu personally for three months without leaving home.
This incident also became a good story, and everyone felt that Empress Taizu and Mu Xin were not mothers, they were better than mothers and daughters.
Everyone present naturally knew these old things, and their expressions were different.
Mrs. Chang Anbo applauded Mrs. Wei Guogong in her heart, rolled her eyes slightly, and said with a smile: "This person is a person, it's about fate!"
"Empress Taizu and Mrs. Anning Houtai Mu are not mothers, they are better than mothers and daughters. I saw that the second girl Gu and the eldest princess are also related, just like sisters."
When she said this, everyone also remembered that Gu Yanfei had saved the life of the eldest princess during the first month.
With Mu Xin's old example, the eldest princess has the heart to lift Gu Yanfei, which is also acceptable.
"That's right." Mrs. Fan added with a smile, "It's no wonder that the emperor loves Wu Jiwu."
At first glance, it seemed that the emperor loved Wujiwu for the eldest princess, but everyone knew that the emperor loved Wujiwudi for the eldest prince and treated Gu Yanfei so kindly.
Mrs. Xiao and others' faces suddenly sank.
The hall fell into a strange silence.
After a while, a high-pitched report from the servant came from outside the door, breaking the silence:
"The emperor is here! Her Royal Highness Princess Fengyang is here!"
The emperor and Fengyang came to greet the guests, followed by a group of maids.
All the female relatives stood up and saluted, and many people couldn't help but glance at Fengyang, but they didn't expect Fengyang to come.
There is a kind of speculation in the hearts of many people, which is about to come out: Could it be…
At the same time, the people of the Slijian also took their places and stood by in their respective positions.
It's almost over.
