Chapter 411 Holding Your Hand

Nan Xi is pregnant now, so she needs to keep a happy mood and is not suitable to listen to too many sad stories.

So Rong Yu does not plan to let her know too much for the time being.

Although it has been a long time since the incident, those memories have been engraved into her heart and bones, and each cut is a painful scar. Every time she thinks of it, it makes people feel suffocated.

Fortunately, she has achieved her wish now. She has used gentleness to soothe all the loneliness and pain in her memory, letting the obsession fade away little by little, and the pain is slowly healed. She no longer can't sleep all night, no longer hesitates and worries about gains and losses.

She used gentleness and tolerance to build a warm house for him.

Rong Yu stayed in this warm house and didn't want to come out. He just wanted to enjoy a peaceful life with her for generations.

As for those long-gone past...

Rong Yu closed his eyes slightly, and the past appeared in his mind again. He found that he had not thought about it for a long time. It seemed that he had really let it go and could face the pain and regrets of the past calmly.

Now he is just Rong Yu, the regent of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the husband of Nan Xi, and the husband of the Empress Dongling, and no longer the Rong Huaijin who loved but could not get.

She is not Empress Jinghua either.

If they did not understand love in the past, and stumbled and bruised in the mountains and rivers of power and responsibility, then now they have obviously become mature and strong, and have completed the transformation.

After some time, he can recall the past more calmly, and their child will be born. At that time, he can tell her the story between Empress Jinghua and Rong Huaijin bit by bit, just like telling other people's stories.

No concealment, no more sadness, completely get rid of the shackles of obsession, and just start the life belonging to Rong Yu and Nan Xi peacefully.

On the 16th day of the twelfth lunar month, the Jingwang Mansion was overjoyed.

The palace was decorated with colorful lights and a festive atmosphere. The maids and servants were busy running around, and it was very lively.

The wedding of Prince Qi followed the royal etiquette. The Ministry of Rites prepared three books and performed six ceremonies according to the classics. The betrothal gifts from Prince Jing's mansion were sent to the Chu Mansion on the auspicious day of the betrothal. The gifts were continuous and grand, representing the highest standard of attention that Prince Qi paid to his beloved woman.

The rewards from the palace were also generous. The female officials were ordered to deliver them and announced one by one to the gift list: "Her Majesty the Queen rewarded 500 taels of gold, 5,000 taels of silver, a pair of purple ivory and black crystal beads, a pair of lotus leaf and ruyi pattern gold bracelets, a pair of gold-threaded mandarin ducks, a longevity lock with abundant surpluses every year, a longevity tent with a hundred children, a pair of jade ruyi, and a colorful mandarin duck glass screen..."

Prince Jing and his wife led the whole mansion to thank the emperor respectfully.

The generous reward represents the Queen's favor to the Jingwang Mansion, represents the strong alliance between the Jingwang Mansion and the Chu family is the Queen's grace and recognition, and also represents the status of the new couple Qi Shizi and Chu Hongyi as "new nobles and favorites" in front of the Queen.

The auspicious time has arrived, and the bells and drums are noisy.

The groom, who is dressed in wedding clothes and looks extremely handsome, rolls down from the tall horse and walks to the front of the wedding sedan. With a clear joyful look in his eyes, he calms down and reaches out to open the sedan curtain, and sees the girl sitting in the sedan with a bright and charming face.

The phoenix crown and bridal robe make her face look like a flower, bright and beautiful, and a bright red flower on her forehead fades the usual heroic and heroic spirit, adding a bit of softness and beauty.

Xuanyuan Qi was lost in thought for a moment.

It was not until the female official reminded him softly that he suddenly came back to his senses, with a happy smile on his lips. His slender jade-like hand reached into the sedan chair and helped his long-cherished bride step out of the wedding sedan chair.

Chu Hongyi lowered her eyes and her gaze fell on his hands. Memories appeared before her like fleeting glimpses.

These hands had taught her martial arts, military tactics, and told her that women could also be generals; they had taken her to gallop on the endless grassland and embrace the vast mountains and rivers; they had also stroked her eyebrows and eyes under the flowers and the moon, and gently expressed his tolerance and love.

Now, this hand holds her hand, and they will become husband and wife today and grow old together.

The lips stained with rouge were tender and tender, and joy spread over the corners of the lips, turning into a smile on the face and a faint blush. Chu Hongyi raised her eyes and stared at the stunning appearance of her lover. They looked into each other's eyes and clearly felt the deep affection and cherishment in each other's eyes.

Xuanyuan Qi held her hand and led her into the palace, walked through the long red carpet sprinkled with gold phoenixes and jade brocade, and went straight to the main hall decorated with grand and festive atmosphere.

Prince Jing and the princess sat in the main seat, looking at the newlyweds with satisfaction, their faces full of smiles and blessings.

The ceremonial officer sang: "First bow to heaven and earth!"

First bow to heaven and earth, raise the case to eyebrows.

"Second bow to parents!"

Shaoyue is melodious, and the zither and harp sound harmoniously.

"Husband and wife bow to each other!"

Life and death, I will be with you;

Holding your hand, I will grow old with you.

"Send her to the bridal chamber--"

Xuanyuan Qi raised the corner of his lips slightly, looked at the treasure in his heart tenderly, retracted the red silk slightly, held her hand and walked to the bridal chamber together.

From today on, she will be his legitimate wife, the treasure he cherishes in his palm for his whole life, and the only one whose name is listed with him in the genealogy.

She is also the only one who can be buried with him a hundred years later.

The dragon and phoenix flowers and candles are shining brightly, and the room is full of light and color.

In the bridal chamber, the maids came forward with golden plates, happily saying auspicious words, and scattered red dates, peanuts, longans, lotus seeds, peanuts and five-color flowers and fruits into the tent, and the head and foot of the bed were full of joy.

After setting up the bed, the bride smiled and respectfully invited the bride and groom to sit on the edge of the bed, tied the corners of their clothes tightly, and carefully took a lock of hair from each of them and tied it into a wishful knot.

The maid brought a golden plate and presented two Ruyi wine cups filled with fine wine to the front.

They were married and drank the wedding wine together.

Xuanyuan Qi smiled and reached out to take a pair of jade Ruyi cups and handed one to Chu Hongyi.

With his arms entwined, his eyes reflected the face of a woman with a golden hairpin and a phoenix crown, like autumn water with waves, swaying with tenderness and ripples. The sparkling eyes contained endless tenderness and joy. The pupils under the long eyelashes looked at him quietly, without any of the domineering in the past, only quiet, light, and hazy feelings like moonlight.

Xuanyuan Qi's heart was slightly moved, staring at her rosy lips, and he couldn't help wanting to kiss her and eat the rouge on her red lips bit by bit, but because the process was not over yet, he had to suppress the impulse temporarily.

The mellow wine was in his mouth, with a hint of clear sweetness.

The bridesmaid took out the knot made of their hair and smiled and congratulated: "Congratulations to the prince and the lady on their marriage, may they live happily ever after!"

The maids all smiled and congratulated: "Congratulations to the prince and the lady!"

Putting the wine cup back on the golden plate, Xuanyuan Qi looked at his beloved wife tenderly: "Are you tired?"

Chu Hongyi was about to shake her head when she heard a voice from outside: "Why are you so slow, Prince Qi? Are you reluctant to leave your bride? Hurry up! The guests are waiting!"
