After the Longevity Festival, the diplomatic missions from various countries left Wei Jing one after another.

The status of the Xin family was not prominent, and the dowry given by the emperor and empress somewhat added some luster to the faces of Xin Zhi and Xin Luo.

But one of them was just a concubine of Crown Prince Kang of the Kingdom of Jin, and the other was even worse. She was a concubine of the romantic prince of the Kingdom of Li, so there was really nothing to show off.

Therefore, on the day the two sisters left Beijing, except for people from each room of the Xin family, almost no one came to see them off.

On the contrary, the distant marriage of Xiao Bi and Hua Xiaohan attracted the attention of everyone in the capital.

Everyone knew that their dowries would be very generous, but no one could imagine what a grand occasion they would be like on the day they left Beijing.

As natives of the capital city, they were no strangers to Shili Hongzhuang. They had seen princesses marry far away before, but they had never seen two noble girls with more generous dowries than the princess marrying away together.

Being able to witness such wealth and bustle with my own eyes is really eye-opening, and I can brag about it for ten or eight years without any problem.

With everyone's eager anticipation, the tenth day of February in the fourteenth year of Tianqing's reign in the Great Wei Dynasty finally arrived.

The sky had just turned white, and Xiao Bi had already finished bathing and sat in front of the dressing table.

Xiao Heng picked up the jade comb and gently combed her long hair that was still a little damp.

After being the empress of the Wei Dynasty for more than ten years, she had never returned to her natal family except for the day when her second brother got married.

But on that day, she only attended the wedding and did not stay at the Duke's Mansion, let alone stay overnight.

This time Xiao Jiu got married far away, but she returned to her parents' home one day early and stayed one night in her former house.

I don't know if it was because of the choice of table, but she couldn't fall asleep lying on the bed she had slept on for more than ten years.

Not only that, but things that had happened in the past kept appearing in her mind, making her even more sleepless.

After all, Xiao Heng is no longer young, and the traces of a sleepless night are fully visible on his face, making him look particularly haggard.

Through the bronze mirror, Xiao Bi saw all her fatigue, and felt very distressed.

She held Xiao Heng's hand and the jade comb together, turned around and looked at her: "Sister, I will live well in the Huan family, so don't worry."

Although he was misunderstood by his younger sister, Xiao Heng did not want to explain, but felt very relieved.

"Ayu is a very nice man. If you are with him, my eldest sister will not worry at all.

I was just moved by the scene and remembered the scene on the day I got married."

Xiao Bi raised the corner of her mouth: "You must have remembered that thing about me getting stuck in the dressing stool again, right?"

Xiao Heng knew that she was teasing him, and a smile appeared on his face.

"You were still a fat girl at that time. Not to mention girls of the same age, many boys who were one or two years older than you were not as tall as you, nor were they as strong as you.

If not, I would be reluctant to let you start practicing martial arts so early.

Now it seems that this decision was a very wise one. It is precisely because you started practicing martial arts at the age of three that you can hardly meet your opponents when you are a teenager."

Xiao Bi smiled and said: "According to your words, don't I have to thank that dressing stool? If it hadn't stuck me, where would I have become the first tyrant in the capital?"

"Still so talkative!" Xiao Heng laughed out loud and picked up the jade comb again to comb her long hair.

"Although today is not the official day for the wedding, you still have to dress up according to the wedding rules.

My eldest sister is not very good at combing your hair, so I can only make do with it for you a few times, and then ask Aunt Qi to comb your hair into a beautiful bun."

Xiao Bi didn't care about this and just agreed with a smile.

※※※※

Almost at the same moment, Marquis Wenyuan's house was also reluctant to leave.

Unlike the Xiao sisters, the Hua sisters all had red eyes, obviously having just cried.

Mrs. Hua ordered her maid to twist hot veils on her two daughters and advised: "Menghan, although Xiaohan married far away, she married a very good husband.

You have met the Duke and his wife, and they are not difficult people to get along with. In addition, we have Xiaojiu as our sister-in-law, so what should we worry about?"

Concubine Hua wiped her face with a hot handkerchief: "I don't know what's wrong with me. I know that Han is marrying well, but I still can't let her go."

After saying that, she stroked Hua Xiaohan's shoulder and back: "It's my fault, eldest sister. I know you've been crying since you were a child, but I still want to make you sad."

Hua Xiaohan stretched out his arms and hugged her slender waist: "Eldest sister..."

It is true that she loves to cry, but the tears she shed today were not because she was reluctant to be separated from her family, but because she felt sorry for her eldest sister.

The eldest sister has outstanding appearance and talent, and she is the eldest daughter of the Hou family. She should have had a good marriage.

But she only had the status of a noble concubine, and got nothing else.

Even my parents and relatives can't see each other often. I go back to my parents' home every ten years or so and take advantage of the opportunity of my younger sister's marriage.

Mrs. Hua pinched her cheek: "It's getting late, hurry up and have something to eat. We're about to start combing our hair and putting on makeup."

As soon as the hour came, the central gates of Duke Dingguo's Mansion and Marquis Wenyuan's Mansion opened wide, and dowries were carried out of the houses like running water.

The people who had been waiting on both sides of the street finally had their eyes opened.

An hour later, the last dowry finally left the house, while the first dowry had already left the west city gate.

For more than ten years, Xiao Bi basically traveled by horseback.

I occasionally ride in a carriage or simply walk, but I have never sat in a sedan chair.

Although she knew that this was only temporary, as soon as she left the city, she had to change to a carriage.

After all, Tianshui County is thousands of miles away, and she cannot be allowed to be carried all the way to the county government by the bearers.

But just such a short moment made Xiao Bi feel uncomfortable all over.

She thought that Mr. Xiao Jiu dared to compete with others for the first time on horseback, and he didn't feel any discomfort in his body.

Today, the stable sixteen-person sedan chariot made her feel a little dizzy, and she could barely keep the breakfast she had just eaten.

After finally getting out of the city, I saw that Hua Xiaohan's sedan chair had also arrived.

There were many people watching the excitement outside the West City Gate, and with the endless carriages and carriages as far as the eye could see, it was almost overwhelming.

Under this situation, Xiao Bi and Hua Xiaohan had no choice but to change to a carriage and could only continue to sit on the sedan chair.

In addition to the welcoming and seeing-off envoys, several young masters of the Xiao family and Hua Qinghan also brought some of the guards in the house to see off their sister in marriage.

Xiao Can and Cao Jie were busy arranging people to clear the road.

Xiao Xuan knew Xiao Bi best and knew that she must be bored.

He drove his horse to the sedan chair and called Xiao Bi with a smile.

Xiao Bi opened a corner of the sedan curtain: "When can we set off? I'm almost bored to death!"

Xiao Xuan sighed a few times: "You kid, why do you speak so freely? Can you say that word at this time?"

Xiao Bi rolled her eyelids: "How come I don't know, when did you actually believe this?"
