    Lying on the soft bed, Emperor Tianqi looked comfortable, and there were two beautiful palace maids helping him massage him. This is how an emperor should live!  After returning from the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Emperor Tianqi has always been in this posture. He is really too tired.  At this point in the wedding process, Emperor Tianqi could finally take a rest. He glanced at Chen Hong who was standing aside. Emperor Tianqi smiled and asked, "Chen Hong, how much did my wedding cost?" Hearing that Emperor Tianqi  Chen Hong suddenly felt a little embarrassed about the question, with a wry smile on his face. He hesitated for a while and then said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the country's money and food are tight, so the Queen Mother said that the wedding needs to be simple. Maybe" "What's the matter?  Speak directly, don't hesitate!" Looking at Chen Hong's appearance, Emperor Tianqi became irritated and said loudly.  "Yes, His Majesty's wedding was frugal, so he spent a total of 1.2 million taels of silver, 800,000 taels of silver from the inner treasury, and 400,000 taels of silver from the household department!" As he spoke, Chen Hong looked at it carefully.  Emperor Tianqi looked very scared.  Emperor Tianqi didn¡¯t understand, but Chen Hong understood very well. This emperor¡¯s wedding can be said to be cheap. If Emperor Tianqi loses his temper, things will be really troublesome.  Chen Hongke clearly remembered that Shenzong organized a wedding for his two sons and spent 24 million taels of silver on jewelry alone.  Emperor Tianqi's wedding only cost 1.2 million taels of silver. In comparison, it was a shabby and poor wedding.  Emperor Tianqi was stunned, this time he was really stunned, not because there were too few flowers, but because there were too many.  One million two hundred thousand taels!  If this money is placed in Liaodong, in the northwest, it can be placed anywhere!  But now it's just a wedding. Emperor Tianqi gave Xu Guangqi one million taels of silver, which he already felt was a lot.  After looking at the frightened Chen Hong, Emperor Tianqi sighed deeply. Perhaps in Chen Hong's view, the wedding cost too little.  At this time, Emperor Tianqi finally understood that it was not that the Ming Dynasty had no money, but that all the money was in the hands of big families and they were not spent where they should be spent. He was the biggest big family in the world!  After thinking about it, Emperor Tianqi asked Chen Hong: "How much does it cost per month in this palace?" Although he didn't know why Emperor Tianqi asked this, Chen Hong didn't dare to touch Emperor Tianqi at this time, so he saluted Emperor Tianqi.  He said respectfully: "The monthly expenses in this palace are about 150,000 taels. If there are sacrifices or festivals, it will be increased appropriately!" Emperor Tianqi shook his head again and smiled bitterly. Listening to the noise outside, he suddenly felt very  Harsh, it seems that this is not the joy of a wedding, but the death knell for this country.  Lying slumped on the bed, Emperor Tianqi felt that this wedding was really full of irony!  No one knew the mood of Emperor Tianqi. It was still very lively outside. After the messengers who welcomed the bride left the Hall of Supreme Harmony, they walked outside.  At this time, the Fa Jia Lu Book was displayed in the Danbi and the courtyard of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.  The queen's guard of honor is displayed outside the Meridian Gate. There is a queen's guard of honor in it. The apricot satin curtain outside is embroidered with a large phoenix in gold thread.  "Female Music" is located behind the Qianqing Palace and in front of the Jiaotai Palace.  The welcoming envoy, cabinet scholar Liu Yijing, will place the gold book and gold treasure in the "Dragon Pavilion".  The honor guard and drum band were in front, the wedding envoy was in the middle, followed by the wedding officials, eunuchs, and guards. They walked out of the Meridian Gate, joined the Queen's guard of honor, carried a large number of gifts, and went straight to the Zhang Mansion!  The group of people stretched for several miles, with Jin Yiwei in front of them clearing the way. There were countless people watching and following on the street.  The Zhang Mansion has started small-scale renovations since Najib was accepted; large-scale renovations have been started since Najib was announced; since the announcement, the whole government has been mobilized, top and bottom, no one can be idle, renovating the house and doing a lot of environmental work  health.  Although it cannot be "overstepped" and made as glorious as a royal palace, it must also be dazzling and try to make people feel that it is "well-matched".  The whole family, including the whole family, is very busy just to buy new clothes inside and outside, not to mention that they also have to decorate with lights, hold a wedding banquet, and distribute "wedding invitations" widely!  , Putting on makeup for the bride is the most nerve-wracking.  With such a big commotion, almost everyone in the world knows that uncooked rice has basically become cooked rice, and "returns" are unlikely.  However, if the emperor's son-in-law lifts his hijab and becomes dissatisfied or unhappy, and the relatives are not close to each other, the emperor's favor will not be so great.  So, when I took a bath, I wanted to rub Miss Zhang off a layer of her skin!  After bathing, repeatedly use skin care agent and Western perfume made from mung bean powder as the main raw material to rub your face and body.  Then apply facial cleanser made of honey, rose petals and other raw materials, and wipe it gently with a high-grade paper mask that is rare even for court ministers.  She also uses skin care cream made from mutton fat, white fragrant and other raw materials, and applies it repeatedly.  The last step is to apply powder on the face, draw eyeliner, eyeshadow, eyebrows and red lips.  Then, tinker with two pieces of "cheek blush" on the two cheeks.    As for the hairstyle, of course, you have to choose from the several styles stipulated in the "document".  There is a "level" there. If you look like a concubine or a noble concubine, that would be bad.  Whether it is a romantic "flying bun" or a novel "up to the sky bun", both the convenience of wearing a phoenix crown and the suitability for Miss Zhang's face shape must be considered.  The two locks of hair on the temples must "hang down naturally" no matter what, like elegant cicada wings, making the emperor's son-in-law's eyes light up when he sees them.  Speaking fast, then slow.  After repeated deliberation, repeated tests, repeated arguments, and repeated rehearsals, it was not until the night before the wedding that the final decision was made.  But luckily, Miss Qian looked like a porcelain figure, lifeless at all.  However, her parents both agreed: the most important thing about beauty is "dignity".  Looking at herself in the mirror, Zhang Yan shook her head and smiled bitterly, with a look of helplessness on her face. She had no say in this matter.  Even the maid Xiaohuan, who was close to him, was taking care of something for him with a happy face at this time, and there were beads of sweat on her little face.  At this moment, Miss Zhang was fully armed and sitting on the embroidery floor. She heard the drum music for welcoming the bride getting closer and closer, and the "drum" in her heart was beating more and more urgently.  The time has not come yet, and I don¡¯t know whether this dignified appearance will be favored by the ¡°customers¡±!  Although she had a chance encounter with Emperor Tianqi, the two of them just glanced at each other briefly. Zhang Yan didn't even see clearly what Emperor Tianqi looked like.  Just like a girl who is about to get married, she feels very anxious!  "Xiaohuan, pour me a glass of water!" He seemed to feel a little thirsty, so he greeted Xiaohuan who was standing not far away.  "Miss, you have to be careful, don't let your pretense show up!" Xiaohuan told Zhang Yan with a nervous look on her face as she handed the water glass to her.  Please click!  Please collect it!  Please recommend!  Rolling on the floor begging!
