Chapter 041 Wedding
Two days passed, and with the arrival of major events, the alliance is becoming more and more lively.
However, in such a short time, the emperor of the alliance actually made his lifelong affairs. The hasty preparations made many people blame them, the two young people, who were in full swing. However, compared with the subsequent coronation ceremony, the wedding really couldn't squeeze out any time.
And the night before the wedding, the two of them were still busy dealing with the alliance matters and the subsequent crowning in the middle of the night. After leaving here for a while, they originally thought that the group of officials could handle it, but the fact was not the case. The crowning matter was a major event for the emperor after all, and due to the differences in religion and culture, everyone had many different opinions on this process.
The next morning, the sun was shining on Zheng Qi's face, and the two young men got up in a daze.
However, Zheng Qi was still lying on the bed, half open his eyes, listening to the sound of waves and the chirping of birds in his ears, but he just couldn't get excited.
"Hey, get up!" He patted He Ximei beside him, "Do you know what day it is?"
"What?" she turned over and covered her head with a pillow. "Today is the day to sleep in."
"What a bad woman." Zheng Qi said, he touched the head of the bed and found a pack of cigarettes, "Get up quickly, I'm going to get married!"
He touched it, took out the last cigarette, held it in his mouth, and lit it with a lighter.
He Ximei finally got up. She hugged Zheng Qi's neck from her back, leaned her lazily against him, chuckled a few times, and said, "Don't you know that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry? If this continues, who else dares to marry you?"
Zheng Qi took a sip of the cigarette hard, then raised his right hand holding the cigarette up, and He Ximei reached out to take it.
"I suddenly felt a little nervous," he said. "This is my first time."
"I like you for the first time!" She smiled and gently touched Zheng Qi's chest, which made him almost choke after hearing this.
At this time, the door was knocked lightly a few times, and then Nightingale opened the door and walked in.
There was smoke in the room. At first glance, she saw Zheng Qi sitting lazily beside the bed. He Ximei hugged his neck and pressed her body against his back. She held a cigarette in her hand and put it to Zheng Qi's mouth, and she vomited the last breath of smoke.
In this regard, the two of them are absolutely compatible. But now it is already midday, and they are still lazy, which really makes many people anxious for them.
"Hey, you guys." Nightingale shook her head, "Everyone is waiting for you. The makeup artist is ready. I suggest you put on your clothes as soon as possible."
"Thank you." Zheng Qi said, "Hey, we're working!"
"I'll go down first." Nightingale turned around and left here.
Zheng Qi's parents downstairs were already waiting. When they saw the nightingale coming down, Wu Xue asked: "How are they preparing?"
The Nightingale thought for a while and said, "They, they should be ready to change their clothes now."
After waiting for a while, there was still no movement. Wu Xue lost her patience. She walked upstairs and came to the door of the two of them. The door was not closed. She stood in front of the door, and there was a burst of smoke inside. She reached out and fanned the air, knocked on the door, and walked in.
"Zheng Qi, why are you smoking?" Wu Xue asked.
"Ah? Me?" Zheng Qi immediately got up and opened the window in the room. "Hehe, I'm used to it."
He glanced at He Ximei next to him. Her reaction was quite fast. She threw the cigarette under the bed and pretended to be busy.
"Mom, why are you here?" He Ximei asked with a smile on her side.
Wu Xue shook her head and said, "How can you two children be so casual? And Zheng Qi, you are not ready yet? Are you doing this for Ximei? Everyone is waiting for you, brush your teeth and wash them up quickly! Don't be lazy!"
"Okay, okay!" Zheng Qi nodded, "I'll prepare immediately, I promise to satisfy you, okay?"
"I'll call someone over." Wu Xue left here, and a few minutes later, a group of responsible makeup artists also walked in.
"Oh, there are so many things." Zheng Qi said.
He picked up a black and blue dress that belonged to him. Compared to the general public, his clothes might be special. They look like a military dress, wearing the rank of an admiral, as well as corsages, badges, armbands and other things. Due to his special status, his clothes must show royal characteristics and must also be combined with the identity of a soldier, so this unique set of clothes became his dress.
"What a complicated first time." He Ximei also said.
...
More than two hours later, Zheng Qi, who was neatly dressed, walked down. He wore a black hat, white gloves on his head and a pair of black boots under his feet. Although it was used for wedding banquets, it still reflected the momentum of a military leader on him.
Everyone was about to finish, so Zheng Qi set out first. They boarded the shuttle and flew to an island outside the coast of Luanda, where their wedding banquet was held.
An island for vacation, the island is surrounded by a blue sea. From the sky, the island is full of green trees and golden beaches. Various buildings of different styles are built on the island, but it is not open today, but there are many people on the island. Just by visual observation, it is estimated that there are more than 2,000 people.
Apart from Zheng Qi's relatives and friends, the most are the soldiers of the Tiger Regiment. They should have participated, but due to the haste, some people are still preparing for other things and cannot participate. So now only a small part of them are more leisurely.
When the protagonists are all here today, the wedding banquet will officially begin.
A set of not very special processes is the same as most married people, but the process has changed a little because of the special identities of the two people. The entire process of walking on the red carpet was recorded by the camera next to it, and then the entire process was broadcast live in the form of holographic projection, so that people in other places could also appreciate this not-so-flattering wedding banquet from a comprehensive perspective.
Zheng Qi, who was serious, grabbed He Ximei's hand in a full white wedding dress and walked slowly along the red carpet. The camera's flash was shining, and there were a group of familiar people on both sides of the red carpet, including soldiers in the legion, his friends, and his elders. Under their gaze, Zheng Qi took He Ximei to the stage.
The emperor's wedding banquet was quite special. Originally, the person who presided over was probably the pastor, but the problem arose here. Zheng Qi, or Eungao II, was regarded as the supreme god of the primitive religion. If the pastor of Christ was invited to preside over it, it would make a big joke and his identity would not be consistent.
Finally, the invited celebrity host asked them to take the oath. After countless gazes, the two "I do" were finished, the whole scene was boiling, and everyone raised their glasses to celebrate.
"Now, you can exchange rings!" The emcee smiled and said to the two people, someone next to him handed over the ring box.
The rings in the box are made of gold, and there are no other accessories on it, but these two rings are of great significance - they were specially made by Ianti, using some special alloys, and there are delicate patterns on it, with the other's name engraved on the inside, writing forever.
Although it is special, this ring is not worth much, and it is not even as good as some ordinary diamond rings. Some people wonder, but they didn't say much. However, it was not their negligence. Zheng Qi did think about diamonds at the beginning, but if he used diamonds, he would be very insincere - their diamonds are almost countless, and it would be too perfunctory to give this to the other party as an eternal thing.
Zheng Qi carefully put the ring engraved with his name on He Ximei's ring finger, and He Ximei also put the ring engraved with her name on his ring finger. The whole process was recorded by the camera and the holographic projector and played out in real time.
The two then turned to face everyone, and everyone applauded and cheered. Zheng Qi had a smile on his face, while He Ximei's face turned slightly red, but their hands were always held together.
Finally, the emcee stood up and said, "In the name of the Supreme God, I declare that you will be fully united from today, and that His Majesty Ngaio can kiss your queen!"
These words have exceeded ordinary standards. The convention is based on the national laws, but the law cannot overtake Zheng Qi's head. Therefore, they can only use the Supreme God to make these two husband and wife. I'm afraid that only Zheng Qi can enjoy this honor!
Zheng Qi turned his head and looked at He Ximei's blushing. Amid everyone's cheers, his lips and He Ximei's lips were printed together.
The audience was completely boiling, and people cheered, picked up the wine glasses beside them and clinked them with their friends to celebrate this very meaningful moment.
However, some people have a bit complicated mood.
Song Yayu stood in the crowd and watched the whole process silently. Although she knew that this day would come sooner or later, she would not have any strength to compete with He Ximei, and she would not think that she could compare with He Ximei. But just like a girl with fairy tale thoughts, she really hoped that the woman on the stage would be herself now.
But reality is always reality.
She held each other's palms, placed them in front of her chest, closed her eyes, and silently blessed them in her heart.
"Brother, you and your sister will be very happy." She said softly. She felt that she was just a passerby in Zheng Qi's life. Although she left a shadow and had a mark, she could not pursue him forever. What should disappear one day will disappear.
At the beginning of the banquet, Song Yayu did not show any unnaturalness and was still talking and laughing with a group of people, but the dimness in her eyes was not something she could control. Later, people started to move around. She glanced at Zheng Qi who was surrounded by everyone, and his constant drunkenness, and chuckled softly.
She turned around and walked out. The beach outside was very lively, and the crowd celebrating the wedding banquet was also celebrating there. A waiter holding a plate came towards her. She took a glass of red wine, then stood by the beach, looked at the crowd below, and took a sip. It was a bit bitter and sweet, and she frowned slightly.
"Hey, beautiful lady!" Peter walked over, holding a wine glass in his hand, and clinked with Song Yayu.
He glanced at Song Yayu and said, "Don't you join in the fun?"
Song Yayu shook her head and said, "It's already lively inside, no one needs me."
Peter laughed, and shook the cup in his hand and said, "Some things should not be bothered by one of them. If you go another way, you will not be able to see the sun."
Song Yayu looked up at Peter, wondering why he said that.
Peter just laughed mysteriously for a few more times, and did not continue talking. Instead, he raised a small notebook in his hand and handed it to Song Yayu, signaling her to take a look.
"Is this a book?" Song Yayu turned a page, which was written in pure English, and she could understand the content, "From Man to God - Emperor Eungao?"
"Written by your brother," Peter said.
Song Yayu became interested and looked through the contents inside. It was all Peter's opinion of Zheng Qi. What he encountered when he was with him, what he had done, etc. In general, he wrote a biography of Zheng Qi's life, but at present, he only recorded some things sporadically and has not been officially included in the main text. And Peter is not very familiar with some aspects.
"You have a high opinion of your brother." Song Yayu closed the notebook and said with a smile.
"I'm afraid it will be underestimated," said Peter. "He is always unexpected. Although at present, although he is not as outstanding as the emperor in history, I can guarantee that he will definitely use this title within ten years. When my book is published, I will be the most visionary person in history."
Song Yayu smiled, Peter laughed, and continued, "But I can't do these tasks alone, so I hope Miss Song can help me. Of course, it's not just you, but more people who join the writing in the future."
"Can I do it?" Song Yayu asked.
"You can do it!" Peter said, "You are his favorite little sister, and you will definitely be able to pry out many secrets from him."
"Favorite?" Song Yayu didn't hear anything else, but only these words.
"Hehe, of course, what good thing do you think he is! A cute beauty like you will not let him go after the facts of the past!" Peter said with a smile, "And I found that there are more than one around him, not to mention that his wife has no intention of objection. Alas, if I encounter such a woman, I will reduce my life, which is worth it!"
Chapter completed!
