(Ten months, 6,700 monthly passes, plus updates.)
The crowd that was pouring into the palace was led to their seats in the plaza.
Miao Yi and Yun Zhiqiu were taken aback as they saw the Celestial Sage, Mu Fanjun, sitting calmly on the throne in the hall.
Mu Fanjun looked at the couple outside the hall with an expressionless face. It was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
The plaza outside was low, so the crowd couldn't see what was going on inside the hall, let alone where the Celestial Sage Mu Fanjun was sitting.
"What's going on? That old hag won't cause trouble at a time like this, will she?" Miao Yi transmitted his voice to the Lady Boss.
Yun Zhiqiu gritted her teeth. She was extremely worried. The wedding had already come to this point. If Mu Fanjun were to cause trouble now … she wouldn't dare to do anything if the other party didn't make a move.
After the bustling crowd in the square was almost fully seated, the fireworks that had been set off without end gradually died down, leaving only the sound of heavenly music drifting in the air.
Zong Zhen stood at the side of the hall's entrance, invoking his transcendence energy to call out, "Newlyweds, please take your seats."
His voice reverberated throughout the entire hall, allowing everyone to hear it clearly. Everyone in the plaza immediately quieted down and looked towards the entrance.
Two palace maids came forward and placed two prayer mats on the ground, then guided the two newlyweds to the back of the prayer mats to face the world outside.
"They're not going to make us bow to heaven and earth at the entrance, are they?" Miao Yi asked the Lady Boss.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zong Zhen said, "Newlyweds, kneel!"
Miao Yi was still hesitating when the Lady Boss gritted her teeth and transmitted her voice, "Kneel!"
The two knelt on the prayer mats. Zong Zhen said, "First bow to heaven and earth!"
Following their previous practice, the two held onto the red silk bouquets and bowed to heaven and earth.
The others didn't know what this wedding was about, so they didn't have any objections to bowing to heaven and earth at the entrance. They thought it was designed this way from the beginning, and many of the tricks today were ingenious.
"Rise!" Zong Zhen said, "Newlyweds, take your seats!"
The two palace maids at the side guided them to stand up, then walked around to the other side of the praying mat and stood properly, once again facing Mu Fanjun, who was sitting upright inside.
Zong Zhen said, "Newcomers kneel!"
"This old hag isn't trying to impersonate our Gao Tang, is she?" Miao Yi transmitted his voice to the Lady Boss again. Because their parents had passed away a long time ago.
"Kneel!" Yun Zhiqiu sent another voice transmission to Miao Yi. She secretly invoked her arts and pulled Miao Yi along with the red silk flower in her hand.
Miao Yi's facial muscles twitched. He braced himself and kneeled down together with the Lady Boss.
Sure enough, Zong Zhen said, "Second bow to your parents!" As he spoke, he glanced inside. He felt that it was rather boring for his master to take advantage of him. Indeed, he was going to fight to the death with Yun Aotian.
"Yes!" Yun Zhiqiu tugged on Miao Yi's arm again. The wedding had already progressed to this point. She didn't expect Mu Fanjun to have already set up a trap for the two of them. She was truly unwilling to give up halfway.
Both of them kowtowed. The Lady Boss's bead curtain swayed.
At this moment, Mu Fanjun, who was sitting on the throne, had a rare look of gentleness in her eyes.
"Rise!" Zong Zhen shouted again, "Newcomers, get into position!"
The two of them rose again and walked to the outside of the two prayer mats. Holding the red silk in their hands, they stood facing each other.
Zong Zhen said, "Newcomers kneel!"
This time, the two of them had no objections. They both knelt down and looked at each other.
Zong Zhen said, "Husband and wife, bow to each other!"
The two of them bowed to each other, their heads almost touching.
This bow had an extraordinary meaning. By bowing to each other in front of the entire world, the two of them had officially become husband and wife.
Qin Weiwei watched this scene from afar from beneath the palace walls. Her expression was one of disappointment and disappointment.
Standing atop the palace walls, Yue Yao bit her lip as she glared at the two of them. Yun Ruoshuang, who was also atop the palace walls, lowered her head.
"Rise!" Zong Zhen shouted loudly. After the two of them stood up, he continued, "This bow shall be witnessed by the heavens and earth. This bow is destined to be one with both honor and disgrace. This bow will last until old age. From then on, we will live and die together, never forsake each other, never leave each other, and forever be husband and wife! The ceremony is complete! Send them into the bridal chamber! "
After saying this, he stepped aside. There was nothing else for him to do. Never in his wildest dreams did he think he would be able to do something like this in this lifetime.
"Wonderful!" The juniors of the Yun Family immediately applauded and cheered. It sounded a little like the howling of ghosts.
However, the Sea of Constellations Demonic Beasts responded with a round of applause. Most of the people also joined in the excitement. The plaza was instantly filled with excitement. It was truly a joyous occasion.
Only Overlord Envoy Zi Lu, Ou Yangguang, remained calm amidst the commotion.
Miao Yi and Yun Zhiqiu could finally relax. They were truly afraid that Mu Fanjun would cause trouble again.
On the steps outside the hall, women carrying palace lanterns began to climb the steps and enter the hall.
Qian'Er and Xue'Er also carried palace lanterns and led the way for the two newlyweds. Miao Yi and Yun Zhiqiu held onto the red silk bouquet and turned around, only to realize that the Celestial Sage Mu Fanjun had disappeared from her throne. It was as if she had never been there in the first place.
The two of them followed the crowd into the hall and made their way to the back of the hall. On the way to the bedchambers, Miao Yi transmitted his voice over, "Lady Boss, Mu Fanjun is taking advantage of us."
"As long as she doesn't cause trouble, we can let her take advantage of us. It's not a big deal. I'm quite satisfied with the wedding that the Realm Beyond Heaven organized this time," Yun Zhiqiu replied in secret. Even so, Mu Fanjun's sudden interference from Yun Zhiqiu had left her with a knot in her heart. Now that things had come to this, she could only accept the fact that things had already come to this.
The group of people carried lanterns and led the way to the courtyard at the back. The doors to the bedchambers were wide open, and the interior was brightly lit.
Inside the bedchambers, the others stood in two rows. Only Qian'Er and Xue'Er continued to carry lanterns and lead the newlyweds into the bridal chamber.
Inside the bridal chamber, red candles shone brightly. Red silk curtains, red silk curtains, red silk curtains, and red embroidered blankets covered the bridal chamber. The newlyweds slowly walked in. As they looked around the room, they exchanged a smile.
A red sleeve holding, a phoenix curtain hanging down, reminiscing in the days to come! On the night of the mandarin ducks, music and music are in the air. For whom is the golden powder? The moon shines brightly, and a song can be vaguely heard outside. Who will be drunk with me! (Edited from 'Two Parts of the Bright Moon')
Miao Yi held Yun Zhiqiu's hand as he had practiced earlier, and the two of them sat down on the bed. As soon as they sat down, Yun Zhiqiu felt a sense of relief. No matter what happened, the two of them were husband and wife who had gone through the wedding ceremony and entered the bridal chamber. She had truly become Miao Yi's legal wife. The smile behind the beaded curtains was incomparably radiant.
Qian'Er and Xue'Er came over with the lanterns. They took the red silk curtains from the couple's hands and placed them on the table.
At this moment, Miao Yi stood up, and Yun Zhiqiu followed suit.
Miao Yi cupped his fists and bowed, formally greeting, "Madam!"
Yun Zhiqiu bowed, formally greeting, "Husband!"
Beside them, Qian'Er and Xue'Er watched enviously from the sidelines. Alas, there was no point in being envious. From the moment they started following Miao Yi, the two of them were destined to be his handmaidens.
Miao Yi stepped forward and helped Yun Zhiqiu up, then helped her sit back down. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief. His shoulders slumped. The ceremony was finally over. Now, all that was left was for them to cross cups of wine before entering the bridal chamber. However, he couldn't do anything about it yet. He had to go entertain the guests first.
"Lady Boss, take a seat first. I'll go entertain the guests." Miao Yi sighed. To be honest, this was really tiring. It was too much of a hassle.
"Come back soon, Husband," Yun Zhiqiu replied.
"It would be strange if I could. There are so many people." Miao Yi smiled bitterly as he turned around and left. As they exited the bridal chamber, the palace maids once again led the way.
Inside the bridal chamber, Yun Zhiqiu was much more disciplined than the sighing Miao Yi. She crossed her hands on her thighs and sat there quietly, not moving an inch. She would only move when Miao Yi returned. Qian'Er and Xue'Er stood guard at the entrance of the bridal chamber.
It was as though there were three more wooden blocks in the room.
Outside the bridal chamber, the carpenter, the stonemason, the cook, the scholar, and Cheng Yaowei stood guard on the rooftops, not allowing any outsiders to approach the bridal chamber. According to the rules, Miao Yi was the only one allowed to enter the bridal chamber tonight.
As he came out, Miao Yi cupped his fists towards the five of them. As he walked outside, he bumped into Yan Xiu, who was patrolling with his men.
As soon as he reached the main hall, Yang Qing was already waiting for him with the ten Hall Masters. Qin Weiwei was among them as well.
Aside from Qin Weiwei, the other Hall Masters hadn't been appointed yet. The main reason was that Yang Qing's old subordinates weren't strong enough to take on the position of Hall Master. When Miao Yi arrived at the Sun Traversing Palace, the two positions of the Wood Traversing Palace Hall were now vacant. Cheng Aofang had transferred two of her subordinates back from the Sun Traversing Palace, so there were also two vacant Hall Master positions in the Sun Traversing Palace. One was given to Qin Weiwei, while the other was suggested by Yang Qing to be given to an old man in the Sun Traversing Palace, in order to calm the hearts of the people. As for the others, they hadn't been appointed yet. Even if they wanted to, it wouldn't be now. They would have to observe the situation first. It wouldn't be appropriate to make such an important appointment in such a short period of time.
The wine cup was handed to Miao Yi. Yang Qing picked up the wine pot and stood by his side. The ten Hall Masters followed behind him as they left the grand hall together.
"Hey! The bridegroom is here. "It was that bastard Yun Feiyang shouting again.
Needless to say, the Great Palace Lord Miao began to toast table by table. First, he toasted the elders. Here, the only ones who could be his elders were the members of the Yun family. His own elders were no longer in this world. He knew Cloud Leopard and Yun Guang, but he hadn't seen any of the others before.
Yun Aotian's remaining eight children happened to be sitting at one table. Yun Guang stood up and walked to the side, patting Miao Yi's shoulder as he introduced them one by one. "This is your Third Aunt Yun Xia, Sixth Uncle Yun Xiao, Eighth Uncle Yun Leopard, Thirteenth Aunt Yun Juan, Fourteenth Uncle Yun Feng, and Sixteenth Uncle Yun Gang. I am your Nineteenth Uncle Yun Guang, and Thirty-Third Aunt Yun Xiang. Your Aunt Yun Xiang hasn't married yet. If you meet someone nice, please introduce them to me."
That Thirty-Third Aunt Yun Xiang immediately glared at him. "Miao Yi, don't listen to his bullshit."
Miao Yi broke out in a cold sweat. There were so many elders all of a sudden. What made him speechless was that Yun Guang was introducing them too quickly. He didn't even remember all of their names and seniority. He could only ask Yun Guang via voice transmission as he toasted them.
After he was done with this table, it was the husbands and wives of this group of people. The wives of those with the most wives piled up to two tables, and all of them were extremely beautiful. If they were ugly, they wouldn't be able to marry anyone with their status. Miao Yi cursed inwardly. 'Why are they all here? There are so many of them. How the hell am I supposed to remember them all at once?!'
