The entire day.
Liszt didn't enjoy the happiness of 'close contact with the beautiful bridesmaids' as Levis had said. He was like a marionette, at the mercy of the internal affairs officials.
"I don't like being a groomsman." Cousin Raleigh complained in a low voice. He was wearing a light golden suit, a wreath of colorful flowers on his head, and a round and fluffy pleated collar around his neck, looking nondescript.
"Plus one."
Liszt echoed.
He was also wearing a nondescript groomsman outfit. It was unknown where the custom of wearing such a bizarre outfit came from.
Even if he had an outstanding temperament and handsome appearance, he was still defeated by this suit. Mixed in with the group of groomsmen, only his handsome face was slightly prominent.
Levis secretly yawned: "I also regret agreeing to be Meopal's groomsman. It's hot, tiring, and uncomfortable. I would rather cultivate qi until I'm exhausted than stand here and be a prop … Especially wearing this ugly and stupid suit, I'm sweating all over!"
But there was no other way, this was the custom.
The golden suit represented the glory of a Knight, the fluffy pleated collar represented the nobility of an aristocrat, and the multicolored wreath represented the blessings of nature.
Such a group of groomsmen could give the groom the greatest support and protect the groom's glory.
Liszt glanced at the opposite side of the red carpet, where a group of bridesmaids dressed in white gowns stood. They didn't wear wreaths, but instead wore bird hats with feathers on them. Their gloved hands held dried flowers. White symbolized purity and flawlessness, bird hats symbolized vigorous qi, and the dried flowers symbolized beauty and restraint.
At first, this group of bridesmaids was indeed so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off them. But now, Liszt didn't know how many of these bridesmaids secretly rolled their eyes.
Especially after the rehearsal, when they completely lost their postures of standing and sitting, they were very rough, not the slightest bit ladylike.
In short.
Today was a painful rehearsal. The young ladies, who had paid attention to Liszt because of the piano piece 'Accompany You', were half-dead tired from being bridesmaids and had no intention of provoking him. This allowed Liszt to sleep soundly for the night, and he welcomed the arrival of the wedding with full spirit.
… …
August 17th, morning.
The groomsmen gathered and the wedding ceremony began.
This was a set of complicated procedures. First, they had to assist the groom in heading to Matsutake Castle to welcome the bride. As the horses galloped, the six groomsmen in the carriage stripped down to their underpants. It was only when he arrived at Matsutake Castle that he hurriedly put on his strange pale gold robe.
Put on the lough and the garland.
Under the guidance of the internal affairs officials, he followed the groom, Meopal, who was dressed in a dazzling and dazzling ceremonial robe, towards Tricholoma Matsutake Castle.
Each of them held a strange potted plant in their hands.
They were wheat, barley, glutinous rice, corn, peas, and taro. The first five grains symbolized a bountiful harvest, while the last type of taro symbolized a family's business.
When they entered the castle, the five grains and the long taro were handed over to the bridesmaids — the male master handed over the family business to the female master to manage.
The male master was in charge of the battle, while the female master was in charge of the castle. This was common knowledge.
Of course, most of the male nobles were not only in charge of war, but also in charge of the castle.
Women were only responsible for enjoying themselves.
When Liszt handed over the glutinous rice in his hand to the bridesmaid, Joanna Moonlight Grass, he suddenly felt a caressing sensation on the back of his hand.
It was the smiling Joanna who used her fingers to tap on the back of his hand.
Moreover, she gave him an ambiguous look.
She was the daughter of the Count of Moonlight Island, a direct follower of the Grand Duke. Her mother was a cousin of the Grand Duke, and she had the bloodline of the Sapphire family. She was nineteen years old this year. Among the bridesmaids, her appearance was the most outstanding. She vaguely resembled Angela Sapphire's eyebrows.
She was one of the socialites who wanted Liszt to teach piano music in private.
He had thought that after a tiring day, she would not be in the mood to indulge in flights of fancy. He did not expect that after a night of resting and storing up energy, this aristocratic young lady would still give Liszt hints — moreover, in broad daylight.
Keep smiling.
Liszt pretended not to notice the other party's small movements. With the little princess' style, he really did not have any thoughts about her bosom friends.
The process was still ongoing.
After experiencing the blessing of "grain exchange", "horse feeding", "armor", and other meaningful blessings, Angela Sapphire, the bride, finally walked out of the depths of the castle under the protection of the eldest prince. Compared to the dazzling gold groom, the bride was equally dazzling gold.
The golden dress wrapped around her body, making her curves appear in all the right places. The faint white muslin on her chest made her deep ravine faintly discernible.
Her hair was tied up and she wore a laurel crown inlaid with gems and pearls.
She wore heavy makeup and a lot of embellishments, making her look very beautiful and noble.
She gave her hand to Meopal and boarded the carriage with Meopal's help. Then, Meopal mounted the horse and personally guarded the side of the carriage.
The bridesmaids entered the different carriages one after another, while Liszt and the other groomsmen also mounted their horses.
Then, the First Prince and the others followed behind the bride's procession. From time to time, the Blueblood Orders of Chivalry would issue unknown roars to strengthen the procession's momentum.
Two and a half hours later.
The procession returned to Longtaro Castle when the sun began to heat up.
The groom helped the bride get off the carriage, while the groomsmen helped the bridesmaids get off the carriage. This time, Liszt found himself being molested again. When he helped Joanna, Joanna unexpectedly pretended to slip and threw herself into his arms. In the process of standing up, he also used his hand to pinch Liszt's chest.
"Your body is really sturdy." She stood on tiptoe and quickly whispered in Liszt's ear.
This scene.
It was impossible for Liszt to fall out and ruin his cousin's wedding. He could only smile, pretend that nothing had happened, and carry on with the rest of the process.
Serving the bride and groom – receiving the spring washing, drinking a glass of wine, sharing a piece of wheat bread, the bride spinning, and the groom shooting.
Finally.
Stepping into the decorated hall, the final marriage recognition ceremony was carried out.
At this time, Liszt noticed that the entire hall was already filled with countless aristocrats and their wives. Sitting on the main seats of the hall was a middle-aged couple – Sapphire Grand Duke Andrew Sapphire and his wife, Sarit Plantagenet.
The grand duke's complexion was good, but he was no longer releasing his Dragon's Might.
Around him were Marquis Merlin, Messiro and his wife, the eldest prince and his wife, Glyndenton and the eldest princess's wife, Leewilliam and his wife, as well as some aristocrats that Liszt had only greeted. The veteran marquis only came to Glyndenton. After all, he was the eldest princess's husband.
The other marquises had all sent their heirs.
In any case, it was glorious enough for the grand duke and his wife to come to this wedding.
The wedding was presided over by an old aristocrat. He was an internal affairs official of the court and had once presided over the eldest prince's wedding.
At this moment, his dim old eyes looked at the thick bast paper in his hand. He faced Meopal and read in a dry but sonorous voice: "Meopal Longtaro, if the master of the sea, the lord of all islands, the great Sapphire Grand Duke agrees, do you swear to marry Angela Sapphire?"
"I promise!" Meopal solemnly swore.
The old aristocrat faced the little princess: "Angela Sapphire, if the master of the sea, the lord of all islands, the great Sapphire Grand Duke agrees, do you swear to marry Meopal Longtaro?"
Angela solemnly swore: "I promise!"
