Chapter 205 The wedding was too crazy, selling mountain tickets

Although Xiao Ying'er was a member of the Xiao family, she was already Liu Fu's princess consort. Everyone knew that Liu Laowu would definitely pass the throne to Liu Fu in the future, which meant that Xiao Ying'er was the future empress candidate.

Under these circumstances, the Xiao family could only suffer in silence, not daring to utter a single word.

Whether it was Xiao Ying'er's mother who didn't love her much, her father who treated her as a political tool from beginning to end, or Grand Tutor Xiao who had carefully cultivated her as a pawn to gain wealth and honor from childhood, it was all thanks to her mother.

At this moment, in front of Xiao Ying'er, Xiao Ying'er was the ruler, and they were the subjects.

Even if you're unhappy, you have to endure it. No matter how unpleasant it is, you have to obediently keep a low profile.

When Liu Fu and the emperor of the Later Han Dynasty personally came to this place and released them from the death row, the Xiao family members were almost moved to tears.

However, since Xiao Ying'er had the guards in Liu Fu's fiefdom secretly carry out what happened here, and this was a power granted to her by Liu Fu, Xiao Ying'er's actions were still legitimate. Moreover, it punished the Xiao family's greed and arrogance without causing the Xiao family to completely lose face.

When the wedding day with Liu Fu arrives tomorrow, the Xiao family can of course still wear their finest clothes to attend the ceremony. However, they will have to think twice now. Their granddaughter's actions clearly show her dissatisfaction with the Xiao family. From now on, the Xiao family will have to be more cautious in their actions and will never dare to be as arrogant and conceited as they were towards the Liao Emperor.

"Our daughter-in-law is incredibly clever!"

Liu Laowu praised him in public, then turned to look at Liu Fu, looking puzzled, and said:

"You two kids are truly birds of a feather. Eighth Brother is a rebellious son full of tricks, and Ying'er is a resourceful and thoughtful woman. You both have a lot of wicked ideas and ulterior motives. I really don't know who influenced whom."

Of course, although she was outwardly scolding Liu Fu as an unfilial son, it was actually to praise her daughter-in-law.

Deep down, Liu Laowu was extremely satisfied with Liu Fu.

On the eve of the wedding, fireworks began to resound from all directions, gongs and drums were deafening, firecrackers were exploding, red flags were waving, and crowds of people were everywhere.

When the wedding ceremony officially begins early the next morning, it will be even more spectacular!

"Your Majesty, you should go and rest for a while. There are many things to do tomorrow, and I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it."

After all, this was the first time in his life he had married, and his wife was a great beauty. Liu Fu was extremely excited.

How could he possibly sleep?

Also in the Fenghe Palace of the same Feng Kingdom, Xiao Ying'er couldn't sleep at all and stayed up all night.

The moment she closed her eyes, just like Liu Fu, her eyes were filled with sweetness and her heart with happiness. Neither of them realized what awaited them tomorrow...

In the early hours of the morning, I started washing up, putting on makeup, and getting dressed.

Looking at her beautiful face in the mirror, Xiao Ying'er was as beautiful as a fairy descended from heaven, beyond compare.

Liu Fu was also a young talent, radiant and spirited, like a celestial being descended to earth, with a captivating temperament.

As the bells rang and firecrackers were set off, Liu Fuxian left the palace and went to the ancestral tablets to pay his respects and burn paper offerings to his ancestors.

The paper on which it was mounted was naturally written in a beautiful and elegant style, and it was read by the person with the loudest voice and the highest moral standing in the palace.

As a result, Liu Fu knelt before the ancestral tablets for more than half an hour.

After finally finishing the recitation, they began to kowtow and offer incense to their ancestors.

After that, they would worship the God of Happiness and the Moon Fairy. The Moon Fairy is the person in charge of marriage on Blue Star, similar to the Old Man Under the Moon.

After doing all this, together with his father, the emperor, Liu Laowu wore a dragon robe and Liu Fu wore a king's robe. The father and son went to the Temple of Heaven to offer sacrifices to Heaven, and then to the Temple of Earth to offer sacrifices to Earth.

After all that had been done, Liu Fu yawned. It was just dawn, and a blood-red sun was rising from the east, its brilliant light just beginning to gild the farthest horizon.

And this is just the beginning.

More regulations await Liu Fu.

Xiao Ying'er was also very busy that night.

They were led to various goddess statues to kowtow and pray. After Liu Fu finished his ancestral worship, Xiao Ying'er also had to go to the Imperial Ancestral Temple to kneel again.

Previously, when Liu Fu was here, all the documents for offering prayers were written in Liu Fu's name, and they contained many words praising Liu Fu.

Now, the document for the blessing was written in Xiao Ying'er's name. As a newcomer to the family, Xiao Ying'er's document was twice as long as Liu Fu's, which meant that Xiao Ying'er had to kneel for much longer than Liu Fu, causing her immense mental anguish...

The extravagance only increased afterward.

To drive away evil spirits, to drive away the year god, all sorts of ancient rituals, and even blessing ceremonies...

By the time all this was done, it was already morning. Liu Fu finally rode his Akhal-Teke horse to greet his bride in a sedan chair carried by sixty-four men.

This is only the beginning of circling the imperial city, and it will take even more time...

At this moment, Liu Fu felt extremely happy.

After half a day of wandering around, my heels were aching terribly, but now that I can ride a horse, I can finally rest my feet.

Xiao Ying'er was also exhausted. The royal wedding ceremony was extremely complicated, not to mention that Liu Fu was the king of a fiefdom, whose status was second only to the emperor.

This time, Liu Laowu, the father, specially arranged for the emperor's ceremony to welcome Xiao Ying'er. This was equivalent to giving Prince Liu Fu the emperor's pomp and circumstance to welcome the empress. Such a high-profile ceremony was simply too much to bear...

After the large group of people circled Pingcheng, the grand wedding procession finally arrived at the foot of Jingshan Hill.

Looking at it now, it's likely that tens of thousands of people gathered at Jingshan today to witness Liu Fu's wedding. They all came from various parts of the Later Han Dynasty.

The entire venue was completely packed!

Many more people couldn't even squeeze into the venue and could only watch everything from afar on the distant hilltop.

Liu Fu never expected that while crosstalk performers could talk about selling tickets for their weddings, he himself would be selling tickets for his own wedding.

That's right.

The hills near Jingshan were rented out in advance from the government by some people. Then, seats were set up on the distant hills and tickets were sold. Those who couldn't squeeze into the venue could only buy a mountain ticket and sit on it to watch this grand event from afar!

Although the location of the mountain ticket is quite far from where Liu Fu's wedding was held, it is quite valuable. Liu Fu never expected that he would one day be as sought after as those popular celebrities on Earth. The price of the mountain ticket quickly rose to one thousand taels of silver, which is equivalent to the lifetime expenses of an average family.

Even with a mountain pass costing a thousand taels of silver, you still couldn't buy one...

This wedding was insane!
