Bichengqu

1. Wedding There are twelve melody in Bicheng, one is melody and the other is sad. At this moment, Princess Bicheng was leaning on a tall building. It was almost the second watch, the night was as cold as water, and the heavy night fog wet her body, but the person who was deep in thought seemed not to feel the coolness at all. Tomorrow, the night of the full moon, is the day when Princess Bicheng gets married. Her future husband is a general who is famous both inside and outside the court, and is a young hero with a flourishing career. This marriage has received various comments and attitudes from the royal family to the common people. Some are envious, some are jealous, and some are sincerely congratulatory. But there is one thing that everyone who knows has to admit, that is, there seems to be no more perfectly matched couple in the world. Indeed, one is a royal princess with a good reputation, and the other is a person who has been favored by the emperor in recent years and relied on as his right-hand man. They have both civil and military skills. The two are extremely well matched regardless of their status, talents, and appearance. It should be noted that in an imperial family, marriage matters are always beyond one's control. To be able to marry such an outstanding person is really lucky. The royal family undoubtedly attached great importance to this marriage. From the time the marriage was set to the wedding, it only took one month, but the preparations for the wedding were indeed thorough. From the preparation of the dowry to the details of the etiquette, the emperor, who was busy with everything, actually asked him to personally intervene, which shows that this matter is no less important in his mind than a military and national event. On the contrary, this made Princess Bicheng, as the newlywed bride, feel free and worry-free, just waiting for others to take care of everything for her. The emperor's prudent attitude actually made people with ulterior motives in the government and the public murmur in their hearts. They said that although the princesses in the past had married outside the country with great success, this attitude was obviously unusual. Ordinary people only thought that although this princess was not the emperor's biological sister, she was better than his biological sister. People who were worried could not help but have other ideas. Princess Bicheng was originally the daughter of the late emperor's eldest daughter through an extramarital marriage. The eldest princess married a military commander in the court, and the couple fell in love with each other, and they gave birth to their beloved daughter the following year. A few years later, due to some civil strife in the royal family, both husband and wife died, and their eight-year-old daughter was returned to the palace to be raised by loyal ministers. Because the princess was born in Bicheng, the late emperor named her Princess Bicheng. The princess was smart and lively when she was young. She was loved by the emperor's cousin, and their friendship was as good as that of her biological brother and sister. Therefore, it is reasonable for the emperor to choose such a beloved minister as the royal son-in-law when the princess gets married. It is such an extremely happy marriage. Logically speaking, on the eve of the wedding, the bride should be in a shy and expectant mood and unable to sleep. However, the expression of this beautiful woman leaning on a tall building does not resemble the shy mentality of her little daughter. Instead, she seems to be full of melancholy, not knowing what she is missing.
