Chapter 302
The annual festival in the Tang Dynasty was actually not as important as later generations, and there was no such thing as family reunion.
The New Year's Eve at this time is more about praying for the safety of yourself and your family.
However, as a child of the royal family, Li Yun is still very busy at this time. He not only wants to participate in ethnology and the royal family, but also visits welfare homes in various places in Chang'an, as well as some old people in Chang'an.
Because he is very busy these few days during the Chinese New Year, he might as well be free during the usual time.
But he is in a good mood, mainly because of the rewards from the system.
In the past few days, the system has not asked him to go to a special place to check in. If he wakes up, he will punch in successfully, and then he will be rewarded.
And these rewards are exactly what he needs most, he gets a thousand catties of candies every day, there are orange flavors, apple flavors, banana flavors, and so on.
Then Donggong is also preparing the wedding cake for his big wedding. All kinds of materials are ready, and they will be put into the pot when the time comes.
……
"Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully checking in, and reward the host with a five-carat diamond ring."
The sixth day of the Lunar New Year was the time when all departments of the imperial court had just ended their vacation.
Li Yun just woke up in the morning when he heard the system sound.
Li Yun was overjoyed when he heard the words. He was wondering what to give Wei Wanyu, but the system sent a diamond ring.
Although there is only one gift, it is a unique gift, and Li Yun thinks it is just right.
This time he didn't go to morning exercise, but got dressed quickly under the service of the maid.
After a while, he will take the welcoming team to pick up the bride.
Because Li Er issued an imperial decree a long time ago, the palace has already arranged for something like Najib.
This is the benefit of the prince, Li Yun doesn't need to handle these trivial matters in person, he just welcomes and picks up the bride.
This morning he took the bride to the East Palace, held a banquet in the East Palace, entertained all the ministers, and then went to the ancestral temple, after which he could enter the bridal chamber.
Several eunuchs hurried in, "His Royal Highness, everything has been arranged, and we are waiting for His Highness to greet the bride."
"Very well, let's go."
Not long after, the wedding party from the Eastern Palace went out, and both sides of the street were full of people eating melons. They watched nervously, waiting for the servants of the Eastern Palace to deliver wedding cakes.
In the front, apart from the musicians, there were also a group of brightly dressed people who specially distributed wedding cakes, but this time the East Palace didn’t just have wedding cakes.
"Come on, Your Highness is getting married, this is wedding candy."
The wedding candy is small, but fortunately, each person has not one, but three.
"What about the wedding cake, isn't this wedding candy too small?"
"The wedding cakes are at the back, don't worry, His Highness puts wedding cakes for half a month, everyone has something to eat."
I heard that there are also wedding cakes, so those who thought wedding candies were small don’t care.
There is a thin layer of icing on the outside of this wedding candy, which is very thin and light.
Peel off the sugar coating, you can immediately smell a very sweet and fragrant taste.
These melon-eating people have never eaten candy before, and when they put the candy in their mouths, they were stunned.
This was too sweet too, and had a very tangy and tangy taste.
What the hell is this? How could there be such a delicious thing in the world?
"Son, this wedding candy is delicious, come and try it."
"Hurry up, call your brother and your sister to run forward, everyone can receive the wedding candy."
"It's delicious, it's really good, it's too sweet, I've never eaten such a sweet thing, sweeter than maltose."
Many people ate the wedding candy and hurriedly hid it for their children to eat, and then ran forward, chasing the person who distributed the wedding candy, wanting to get some more.
Some people are embarrassed and let their children chase after them.
"What's delicious about this, isn't it just maltose?"
"It's not, it's more fragrant and sweeter than maltose."
"Hey, it's really delicious, I...I'm going to get it too."
Many people chased after it, including some rich people who wanted to eat more.
"I pay for the wedding candies, two cents apiece, whoever sells them, don't unwrap the wrappers, they have to be complete."
Many rich people like to eat, so they just pay for it.
These two pennies can buy half a catty of old rice, and some poor families sold it one after another.
The appearance of the wedding candy directly detonated the entire Chang'an City. None of the rich and poor in Chang'an City had ever eaten wedding candy.
Therefore, at the front of the wedding reception team, that is, the dozen or so people who handed out wedding candies, a group of people surrounded them wherever they went.
There were soldiers to maintain order, and these people did not dare to attack the wedding reception team, but they were still very fanatical.
……
Zheng Guogong's mansion, Wei Wanyu's boudoir, besides her and Xiao Chan, there is also a very beautiful girl.
This girl is called Pei Qian, and she is Wei Wanyu's cousin.
Pei Qian is naturally from the Pei family, which is a family from Shandong, and the Pei family's mansion in Chang'an is much more luxurious than Zheng Guogong's mansion.
Pei Qian's boudoir is also much more spacious and gorgeous than Wei Wanyu's.
At this time, Pei Qian was talking with Wei Wanyu, but she felt a little contemptuous in her heart.
She came here today mainly to see how Li Yun looks.
According to the elders of Pei's family, if Datang wins the war with Dong Tujue this year, then the Li family might be able to stabilize the country and become a centuries-old dynasty like the Liu family of the Han Dynasty.
At that time, the Pei family will naturally have to submit to the Li family, and the best way is to marry their daughter.
So Pei Qian wanted to see what Li Yun looked like. If she looked good and the Li family was established again, then she would marry her.
If he doesn't look good and doesn't suit her wishes, don't say he is a prince, even if he becomes an emperor in the future, he won't think much of him.
In fact, this is the attitude of the Shandong family towards Li Tang.
In the early years of Li Yuan's period, these Shandong aristocratic families were not like the Li family at all.
Because judging from the chaos of the previous 300 years, the Li family is not stable.
But in Li Shimin's period, the Shandong family still looked down on the Li family. Li Shimin wanted to marry the princess, but he didn't like it, and he didn't care about marrying the Li family.
However, Li Er defeated the Eastern Turks, and the situation improved a lot. Later, Li Er defeated the Western Turks and conquered many countries in the Western Regions.
These proud Shandong families completely bowed their heads.
Because they understood that the Li family must be a century-old dynasty, it was at this time that the Taiyuan Wang family was the first to surrender and took the initiative to marry their daughter to Li Zhi.
But now Li Yun is better than Li Zhi, and his reputation in the court is very good.
This moved the Pei family's mind, and they thought that maybe they could marry a daughter to Li Yun.
This Wei Wanyu will be the queen in the future, so she will take care of her.
However, Pei Qian has actually only been to Zheng Guogong's mansion once, she doesn't like to go, she finds it boring and boring.
At this time, talking with Wei Wanyu, I was not very happy in my heart.
Although her cousin is beautiful, she is too serious, and she feels that this cousin is vaguely contemptuous.
At this moment, a maid ran in from the outside, "Miss, the bridegroom is coming soon. It is said that people from all over Chang'an have come to watch the excitement."
Pei Qian curled her lips, "I really haven't seen the world before."
