Chapter 193 The Big Wedding
Li Tianyou followed the requirements of official etiquette and completed various complicated ceremonies and procedures with the Xie family step by step, and was busy for a full hundred days.
Finally, they welcomed the day of the emperor and empress's wedding.
Inside and outside the palace, there were lights and decorations everywhere, and the air was filled with a festive and peaceful atmosphere.
Big red lanterns were hung high, golden ribbons fluttered in the wind, and the entire palace was shrouded in a layer of gorgeous light.
On the day of his wedding, Li Tianyou wore an exquisite and gorgeous dragon robe and sat on the throne in the palace. He had an upright posture and a majestic temperament, like a god.
Sitting quietly, staring ahead, his heart filled with anticipation and joy, he waited for the Queen's arrival.
Led by the ceremonial officer, Xie Yuxin, dressed in gorgeous clothes and wearing a phoenix crown, walked into the hall step by step.
The steps are light and graceful, and every step carries the joy of running towards happiness.
Xie Yuxin has a beautiful face like a flower, delicate and charming, skin as white as snow, and her eyes reveal gentleness and intelligence.
She exudes a faint fragrance that makes people feel relaxed and happy.
With the appearance of Xie Yuxin, the entire hall fell into silence.
Everyone was shocked by Xie Yuxin's beauty and forgot to breathe for a moment.
Li Tianyou couldn't help but be moved, his eyes revealing deep love and attachment.
He stepped down from the dragon throne and slowly walked towards Xie Yuxin. They stared at each other, their eyes full of joy and anticipation.
The two stood side by side, and the official read the wedding speech aloud.
Following the instructions of the ritual officer, the emperor and empress worshipped heaven and earth and their ancestors together.
After the ceremony, the emperor and empress came into the hall together.
Inside the magnificent palace, the banquet was filled with delicacies, and the aroma of fine wine and delicious food filled the air.
Princes, nobles, civil and military officials dressed in their best clothes and holding wine glasses, congratulated the emperor and the empress.
Court musicians played cheerful music and dancers danced gracefully in the center of the hall, adding a joyful atmosphere to the wedding banquet.
Xie Yuxin and Li Tianyou, dressed in gorgeous gowns, sat on high seats, accepting everyone's blessings.
With happy smiles on their faces, they looked at each other affectionately, as if the whole world only consisted of the two of them.
The guests greeted each other, chatted and laughed, and shared this joyful moment together.
Wine glasses clinked, blessings rang out one after another, and people were immersed in a joyful atmosphere.
Qiao Xiaoxi, Zhao Wudi, and Li Yanming chose a secluded corner to sit in.
But the virtuous king came in with Qiao Xiaoxian and two concubines.
Seeing Qiao Xiaoxi, the virtuous king said happily: "Xixi, I haven't seen you for many years, how come you haven't aged?"
The virtuous king touched his face and said: "I am old!"
Qiao Xiaoxian touched her belly and smiled happily: "My Lord, what's the point of not getting old? I can't see any offspring if I look good."
The virtuous king looked at Zhao Wudi and laughed: "Haha, this is not Xixi's fault, it's my cousin's problem! Cousin, you can ask me for advice, I will teach you how to hit the target with one strike!"
Zhao Wudi's face turned dark instantly. Qiao Xiaoxi looked at the virtuous king and said with a smile, "Your Highness, please stop teasing us. You should pay attention to your wives and concubines, especially your pregnant sister. Find a place to sit down."
The virtuous king turned to look at Qiao Xiaoxian, his eyes full of doting, and reached out to touch Qiao Xiaoxian's belly.
He said proudly: "Yes, yes, Xixi is right, let's find a place for my beloved concubine to sit down first, don't tire out my little darling."
The virtuous king helped Qiao Xiaoxian walk towards his seat. When passing by Zhao Wudi, he looked at Zhao Wudi smugly.
Zhao Wudi reached out and grabbed Qiao Xiaoxi's hand under the table, and whispered in Qiao Xiaoxi's ear: "Qiao Xiaoxi, look at the smug look on the Xian Wang's face. Xiao Ye can't do it. What do you say we should do?"
Qiao Xiaoxi looked at Zhao Wudi and said with a smile: "Give me three concubines, and I will show my prowess and kill three of them at once, and make the wise king die."
After hearing what Qiao Xiaoxi said, Zhao Wudi's mouth twitched slightly, "You are going to piss me off to death! I will never take a concubine."
As he spoke, he held Qiao Xiaoxi's hand tightly, implying his dissatisfaction.
The music started and the dancers began their wonderful performance.
Qiao Xiaoxi took the opportunity to change the subject, "Look, the dance has started, let's enjoy it."
