Chapter 218: Ten Miles of Red Wedding Dress, the Imperial Guards Led the Way, and the General Carried the Sedan Chair, Unprecedented!

Although the palace had arranged the wedding ceremony, officials from the Ministry of Rites also assisted.

But Wei Shuyi always felt that some things were not done well enough, so whenever she had free time, she always wanted to find something to do in the Bo's Mansion.

After hearing about this, many people said that she, as the eldest sister, was more concerned than the mother.

The official engagement date was October 2.

According to the popular etiquette of marriage in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the woman's dowry should be delivered one day before the auspicious day.

But Zhang Guifen was the only daughter of the Duke of Ying's Mansion.

Zhang Fu's daughter's marriage was naturally extremely grand.

Therefore, the Duke of Ying's Mansion sent the dowry on the auspicious day.

He wanted all the nobles in the entire Bianjing City to envy his daughter's marriage, including those so-called royal relatives.

Zhu Zongguan was puzzled and said, "Your Majesty, the imperial guards lead the way to welcome the bride. This has never happened before. You set a precedent for General Wei. Is it inappropriate?"

As long as he showed that he was asking for something in everything, Zhao Zhen would feel more at ease.

Besides, he thought he knew Zhao Zhen very well.

Since he just wanted to give the Wei family a face for this marriage, it would be fine to give him this face.

It can be said that for this marriage, Wei Yuan used all his resources.

"Wei Qing loves face, which is a good thing for me and the Great Zhou."

His wedding must be unique.

Each of them was wearing armor, holding a halberd, and their faces were serious, which made people shudder.

So, on this day in early October, many people saw that there were soldiers of the Danglu Army standing on both sides of the street.

Generally speaking, to achieve Wei Yuan's level, you have to learn how to hide your shortcomings and how to lie dormant.

The Danglu Army is also under the Imperial Guards.

"I am not afraid that he will be arrogant because of his achievements. I am afraid that he will pretend to be harmless even though he has made great achievements."

"But you are going to give me a headache again."

Many bigwigs in the court have married their daughters. On the day of the wedding, they just compared the dowry. Wei Yuan felt that this was too vulgar.

When Wei Yuan married, he must let everyone know that he married Zhang Guifen with a ten-mile red makeup.

"."

Letting the Imperial Guards lead the way to welcome the bride is also a kind of self-pollution?

Zhao Zhen thought for a moment and smiled: "You came to me specifically for this matter, so I can't refuse."

Seeing this, Zhao Zhen shook his head helplessly and smiled: "After getting married, you must be restrained. Remember not to do things that stand out in the forest."

Therefore, Zhao Zhen did not dislike him asking about these things, and even patiently explained:

In theory, a eunuch should not ask so many things.

After several years, he wanted the people of the whole Zhou Dynasty to talk about their marriage.

Wei Yuan wanted to set a precedent!

In response, Zhao Zhen said meaningfully: "The soldiers of the Imperial Guards paved the way for your marriage. Aren't you afraid that people would say that you are too powerful to be trusted by the emperor? Aren't you afraid that the imperial censors in the court would write a memorial for this matter?"

Wait for Wei Yuan to leave Xuanzheng Hall.

After all, what bad intentions can a general who can't even hide his shortcomings have?

Wei Yuan bowed deeply and said: "Minister, remember this."

"A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Wei Yuan has gone too far!"

As for self-debasement, Wei Yuan had done it before.

Wei Yuan said: "I'm afraid, but I still want to do this. I ask your majesty to help me."

"General Wei deserves such honor for guarding the border for the country!"

A truly ambitious person would not dare to do such a rampant thing.

If Wei Yuan really did this, Zhao Zhen would be worried.

The imperial guards opened the way to celebrate the marriage of a minister, which was unprecedented in ancient and modern times.

Starting from the front of the mansion gate, the red carpet was laid on both sides of the street, extending to ten miles away.

On this day in early October, although the Zhang Mansion did not send the dowry, the preparations on the side of the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion were not bad at all.

For this reason, at the end of September, he went to the palace specifically to ask Zhao Zhen to allow the soldiers of the Danglu Army to be stationed on both sides of the ten-mile red makeup road on the day of marrying Zhang Guifen.

"He wants his wedding to be more grand, and I will feel more at ease."

Zhao Zhen waved his hand, "Okay, retreat, don't come to me these few days if you have nothing to do."

But Zhu Zongguan has followed Zhao Zhen for many years and has always been loyal.

Some nobles, prominent families, upright people, common people, etc., were discussing this.

"After all, the loyal and brave mansion is so grand that it even asked the emperor's personal army to help."

Wei Yuan smiled and said, "Minister, thank you for your help, Your Majesty!"

"The imperial guards guard the road and clear the way just for the marriage of a marquis. It can be said to be a precedent unprecedented in ancient and modern times."

There were praises, derogations, and sarcasm.

These people were all surprised by the grandness of the loyal and brave mansion.

At this moment.

In the mansion, Minglan looked at the imperial guards guarding the gate of the mansion and murmured to herself:

"Tomorrow, my uncle will lead these soldiers to welcome my aunt? It's really impressive."

After hearing this, Wei Shuyi, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but sigh:

"It's impressive, but it's not necessarily a good thing."

Throughout the ages, which general dared to use the emperor's personal army when he got married?

It must be said that Zhao Zhen's favor for Wei Yuan is unmatched.

The moment the imperial guards arrived at the Bo's mansion, the imperial censor's note was handed to Zhao Zhen.

When Zhao Zhen saw it without looking at it, he burned it and said to the censors:

"I have been raising soldiers for many years in this dynasty, but now, I only have one General Wei."

"He sacrificed his life and blood for me and the country. Could it be that I can't satisfy even such a small request?"

At this point, no censor dared to say anything on the matter.

Everyone said that Wei Yuan was going to be left out. After all, after returning from the southeast, the officials neither rewarded nor punished him.

However, what about today?

The officials have always been pampering Wei Yuan!

In addition to being relatively relieved that Wei Yuan would use the imperial army to welcome his bride, Zhao Zhen had another very important reason.

That is, Wei Yuan was promoted by him.

In Zhao Zhen's eyes, Wei Yuan was like a small sapling that grew into a towering tree under his careful care and cultivation.

He felt that he was in his old age, and for the sake of the prince, he would no longer be able to do anything for Wei Yuan in the future.

Wei Yuan's marriage has become one of Zhao Zhen's major concerns.

Watching the generals you loved and trained marry wives and have children gives you a sense of accomplishment.

Every time he thought about this, Zhao Zhen wished he could not be ten years younger and wished he could have met Wei Yuan earlier.

Otherwise, it will become a good story for the emperor and his ministers.

Wait until the good day comes.

Outside the uncle's house, firecrackers and gongs and drums were blasting, and the sound of firecrackers could be heard even more than ten miles away.

As a prominent figure in Bianjing City, Wei Yuan's every move, word and deed attracted much attention, let alone such a major event as getting married.

Not only was there an endless stream of guests inviting Wei Yuan to his wedding in the uncle's house.

Even the streets outside the uncle's residence were crowded with people.

Despite the large number of people and the constant sound of firecrackers, no disturbances occurred.

After all, there were Forbidden Army soldiers guarding both sides of the street.

When Bao Xiaosu, Wang Anshi and others first came to the uncle's house and saw such a grand occasion, they all said one after another:

"When the emperor got married, his momentum was only a little stronger than this."

"yes."

"."

During the conversation, they heard that many people around them were talking about Wei Yuan's use of the Forbidden Army soldiers. They thought this was too flamboyant. Aren't they afraid of being jealous of the emperor and officials?

As Wei Yuan's long-lasting friend, Bao Xiaosu suddenly said loudly to Wang Anshi:

"General Wei has guarded the country's borders for many years and repeatedly defeated enemy invaders. He is a hero of our great Zhou Dynasty."

"Now that General Wei is getting married, the people around him spontaneously come to congratulate him. It's such a happy event."

"But if there are no Forbidden Army soldiers to maintain order, I'm afraid this happy event will inevitably lead to more trouble."

In this way, Wei Yuan's disadvantage of inviting the imperial army was easily resolved.

Wang Anshi understood Bao Xiaosu's thoughts. Now he and Wei Yuan were also in the 'honeymoon period', so he agreed:

"Yes, I remember that at last year's annual meeting, many people stampeded and crowded, resulting in many deaths."

"The officials also regretted this incident. Now that they agree with General Wei to invite the imperial army, they are probably worried that people will die in vain again."

Bao Xiaosu nodded.

At this time, Xu Changzhi, who was in charge of receiving guests, quickly walked towards them, cupped his hands and said:

"I didn't expect you two to come so early, but I was negligent."

"Please take a seat inside, both of you."

Bao Xiaosu shook his head, stroked his beard and smiled: "The British prince will send a dowry later. I don't know what it will send. I am very curious and will not go anywhere. I will just wait here."

Wang Anshi said: "That's right, I'm not going anywhere, I'm just waiting here to see the dowry from the Duke's Mansion."

As soon as he finished speaking, several shouts came from the counter where the gifts were stored in front of the uncle's house.

"In the midst of the incident, Mr. Fan Chunren, the Minister of Civil Affairs, came to congratulate you!"

"Ningyuan Hou Mansion is here to congratulate you!"

"."

Wei Yuan is getting married, and there must be a lot of officials coming and going.

Among them, there are those from well-off families, and there are also some poor officials who cannot give too expensive gifts.

Therefore, Wei Yuan welcomed the guests without giving any gifts.

However, this does not mean that some people do not know who gives valuable gifts.

For example, when the words 'Ningyuan Hou's Mansion' sounded, I suddenly saw Gu Tingye followed by many servants, carrying six boxes into the uncle's house.

"It's Ningyuan Houfu after all. Although I don't know what kind of gifts they gave me, I can tell from those heavy boxes that they are worth a lot of money!"

"Don't Marquis Ningyuan have a good relationship with Uncle Zhongyong? Why did he only send his legitimate son here?"

"No matter how good the relationship between Marquis Ningyuan and Uncle Zhongyong is, can it be better than the relationship between Marquis Ningyuan and the British Duke? It is estimated that Marquis Ningyuan has gone to Zhang Mansion by now."

"The Zhang Mansion is also holding a big banquet. So, isn't the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion going to send two congratulatory gifts?"

"Whenever nobles get married, each noble family must send two congratulatory gifts. It is an unwritten rule."

"."

Most of the guests Wei Yuan and Zhang Fu entertained were of the same rank and honor.

In order to save face and maintain relations with each other, nobles from various families usually send out two groups of people to send out congratulatory gifts respectively.

In the same way, if there is a marriage between noble families in the future, Wei Yuan will also send two congratulatory gifts.

Usually the couple goes to one place separately.

The front yard of the uncle's house became more and more lively as more and more guests arrived.

At this moment, the backyard.

Sisters Wei Shuyi and Minglan were chatting with many dignitaries, officials and their families.

Madam Wu, the wife of Uncle Yongchang, came to the Wei family, and as for Uncle Yongchang, she went to the Zhang family.

In the same way, the same is true for Qi Guogong's family.

Mrs. Wu heard the sound of firecrackers outside the uncle's house and couldn't help but said:

"Since we arrived now, the sound of firecrackers has been going off non-stop. I'm afraid that just these firecrackers have cost Uncle Zhongyong a lot."

Several noble ladies laughed one after another and said:

"I heard that your uncle Yongchang's Mansion sent a lot of gifts to Uncle Zhongyong's family this time. They can keep the sound of firecrackers going just by using the gifts you sent."

"Didn't you say that these firecrackers were sent from the palace?"

"Excuse me, is this happening?"

"."

In the past, even if Wei Shuyi had imperial status and was the adopted daughter of a British father-in-law, it would have been difficult for him to integrate into the circle of nobles.

After all, Xungui is a member of the Qingliu family who is relatively exclusive of scholars.

But after what Wei Yuan did in the southeast, these noble family members did not dare not to wait for Wei Shuyi.

Her status was immediately highlighted.

Wei Shu smiled at the crowd and said, "I don't understand these things, I guess."

don't know?

Several people said one after another:

"I heard that you have spent a lot of effort on the marriage of this younger brother of the Qian family. To say that you don't understand it is to be humble."

"They say an elder sister is like a mother. You, the elder sister, have been really worried these past few days."

"."

After a pause, they looked at Minglan who was sitting in the pavilion eating cakes and said one after another:

"Uncle Zhongyong's niece is really getting more and more beautiful as she gets older. I really don't know which family I will take advantage of in the future."

"After all, Miss Ming is not young, right? It's time to look at her."

"."

Before, they might have said these words more as a joke.

But now I say all this out of goodwill or because I want to have a deeper relationship with Wei Shuyi and her daughter.

Sitting opposite Minglan, Mrs. Qi Guogong, who had remained motionless, heard that they were actually talking about Minglan, and immediately said regardless of her identity:

"Minglan is still young, don't worry, you're right, forgive me?"

Since Wei Yuan went to the southeast, the relationship between the Duke of Qi, Princess Pingning and Wei Shuyi has skyrocketed.

It can even be said to be a ‘close friend’.

If both of them are still young, they might become a "handkerchief".

Wei Shu nodded and said, "Yes, Minglan is still young, so don't worry."

The noble family members couldn't help but burst into laughter when they heard that the Duke of Qi's wife was actually "protecting the calf".

They knew very well what Princess Pingning was thinking.

While everyone was talking and laughing, a maid suddenly came over, cupped her hands towards Wei Shuyi and said:

"Madam, the Zhang family's dowry has been delivered."

arrive?

Wei Shuyi slowly stood up from the stone bench, smiled at the many female relatives and said:

"Sisters, sisters, and you girls, why don't you come with me and take a look?"

Hearing the sound, everyone all agreed:

"You should go and have a look. After all, when the British couple's precious daughter gets married, the dowry will be extremely generous."

"Yes, I came so early today because I didn't want to miss this."

"Let's go together."

"."

On a wedding day, the emphasis is on excitement.

So on this day, no one took the distinction between men and women too seriously.

Otherwise, the front yard would be full of male guests, and it would be difficult for their female relatives to show up.

The British father-in-law and his wife chose to send the dowry at this time, and their good intentions were reflected.

That is to let more people see the grandeur of the dowry sent by Zhang Mansion.

To be honest, the Zhang family didn't even prepare a dowry list this time.

Because I really can’t write it down.

There are countless silks, silks, and rare treasures. For example, there are more than ten luminous pearls enshrined by overseas countries and awarded to the Zhang family by the queen.

If you touch it, a luminous pearl can be worth tens of thousands of taels of silver.

The Zhang family has accumulated too much wealth since the founding of the country, and this time, the Zhang family's daughter married off half of the family's wealth.

When the noble women headed to the front yard under the leadership of Wei Shuyi, they suddenly noticed how big the residence was.

"I didn't notice it when I came here, but now I realize that this Zhongyongbo Mansion is really big and impressive."

"After all, it is a mansion gifted by His Majesty himself. It is extraordinary."

"."

When they arrived at the front yard, as the Zhang family's dowry was moved in box after box, not only the noble family members, but also everyone was deeply shocked by this.

I saw everyone standing in front of the uncle's house, looking at the endless procession of dowry delivery, with expressions of extreme surprise, even dumbfounded.

"Dear mother, how much are these dowries worth?"

"As expected of the British government, it is really generous!"

"Nonsense, she is a married woman after all."

"From here to the end of the street, it's at least three or four miles, right? You can't even see the end!"

"I remember that during the late emperor's time, it was a popular story at that time for Hai family to marry a daughter with a red dress of ten miles away. Now, the number of married women from the British prince's family is also ten miles away, right?"

"."

The envious expressions of those distinguished family members and children were almost beyond words.

As a woman, who doesn’t want to have such a grand occasion when she gets married?

Unexpectedly, the British nun who was responsible for delivering dowries heard everyone talking and smiled and said:

"I'm afraid it's not appropriate to send makeup at ten miles away. I've made some estimates, and it should be twenty or thirty miles away at least."

2. Twenty or thirty miles?

Hearing this, everyone's jaws dropped in shock.

What is this concept?

So amazing!

Less than half an hour later, the makeup delivery team continued to arrive, and everyone was once again talking about it because they were so surprised.

"How long has it been? Is there still no end to the makeup delivery team?"

"I used to think that the British government was powerful, but now I'm blind."

"After today, if we talk about Shili Hongzhuang, we can't avoid the marriage between Zhang and Wei."

"Look at the soldiers standing on both sides of the street. They are so powerful!"

"They are all elite men! Just by looking at their eyes, you can tell that they are all people who have seen blood!"

"."

Don't talk about outsiders like them.

Even family members like Wei Shuyi and Minglan were frightened by this battle.

They had been informed by Mrs. Zhang a long time ago that the dowry given might be a bit too much.

But I never thought that there are so many. No, it cannot be described as too many. The word "huge" is more appropriate.

"Mother, my daughter suddenly feels that the things her aunt gave her before are really not worth much in her heart."

Minglan's jaw seemed to be almost dropped in shock.

Wei Shuyi didn't say anything. As a member of the uncle's house, he should maintain the dignity of the uncle's house.

If she showed an extremely shocked expression, she would be afraid that others would laugh at Wei Yuan, an upstart, who has no knowledge.

The old British nun on the side smiled and said:

"Miss Ming, many of the things in these dowries are given to you, and they were all chosen by our girl herself."

As soon as these words came out, some young women standing not far from Minglan, such as Rong Feiyan and others, looked jealous.

Minglan said: "My aunt still loves me."

The old grandma covered her mouth and smiled, and said: "My girl has been saying that she wants to give you more things that you like. When you are done with the big things today, I will make it easy for you to choose."

Wei Shuyi saw that the makeup delivery team was still coming one after another, as if there was no end, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.

"What should I do if I miss an auspicious time because of this?"

The old lady said: "Madam, please rest assured, the old lady is calculating the time, and it will not be missed."

About half an hour passed before the British government finally gave away all the dowry.

At this moment, Bao Xiaosu, Wang Anshi, Fan Chunren and other three people stood together, looking at the dowry, each of them looked amazed.

Fan Chunren, in particular, said bluntly:

"This British government's dowry can be described as being as wealthy as the country."

This is certainly an exaggeration.

However, in Wang Anshi's eyes, it should be so,

"These are just the dowries that we can see, and there are some dowries that we cannot see."

can not be seen?

Fan Chunren was confused: "What?"

Wang Anshi said bluntly: "Military morale."

"The British Duke has controlled the world's military power for many years and has a very high prestige in the hearts of our Zhou soldiers."

"After the marriage between the Zhang and Wei families, the biggest dowry Wei Yuan got was the military morale of the millions of soldiers of the imperial army of our country."

Bao Xiaosu frowned and said, "Be careful, if these words reach the ears of officials, I'm afraid it will be bad and cause trouble for Wei Yuan."

Wang Anshi smiled and said: "Master Bao is too worried. The official family originally planned to let General Wei take over the British army."

"Sooner or later, the power of the Imperial Guard will be handed over to General Wei."

It doesn't mean that Wei Yuan can really command the world's forbidden armies at will if he becomes the second Zhang Fu.

Rather, it means that he has the status to command the imperial army.

But the premise of all this is that the emperor must have a clear intention to mobilize the army. Otherwise, even Zhang Fu and Wei Yuan will not be able to directly mobilize the imperial army.

To put it bluntly, the so-called power of the forbidden army refers to the power to train troops, not the power to mobilize troops.

Since Zhou Taizu released his military power over a cup of wine, the generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty no longer have the power to mobilize troops.

the other side.

As soon as Wei Shu saw that the dowry had been delivered, he did not dare to delay any longer, and quickly asked Chen Daniu and others,

"Hurry up and see if your brother's situation is okay. If it's okay, it's time to set off."

The preparations in the palace were quite thorough. Not only was the emperor given eighteen chariots as a wedding sedan, but thirty-six palace ladies were also assigned to scatter flower petals and happy fruits in front of the wedding sedan.

Now, the royal chariot has stopped not far from the gate of the mansion and can set off at any time.

When Chen Daniu heard that he was going to pick up his sister-in-law, he immediately laughed heartily, and together with Lin Zhaoyuan and many other brothers, they called Wei Yuan to come.

"Girl Ming, go and bring the bouquet to your uncle."

Wei Shuyi warned.

Minglan looked surprised, "Shall I go?"

Wei Shu said politely: "Your uncle specifically said that you must hand the bouquet to your uncle's hand."

The meaning of handing bouquets is that the person who hands them bouquets hopes to have a good marriage in the future.

Generally speaking, it is the brothers who hand out the bouquets.

But since Wei Yuan asked Minglan to deliver it, he naturally had his best wishes.

Minglan didn't hesitate, picked up the bouquet from the backyard and ran towards Wei Yuan.

When Minglan arrived, she could already hear the cheers from Chen Daniu and others.

"I'm going to pick up my sister-in-law!"

"Brother, hurry up, otherwise my sister-in-law will be picked up by us."

"."

Since ancient times, it has only been the custom for brothers to make fun of the eldest brother's marriage. There is no precedent for the eldest brother to make fun of his brother's wife.

When Wei Yuan heard their words, he could only smile bitterly.

Minglan quickly came to Wei Yuan, took a breath and said, "Uncle, flower ball."

Wei Yuan glanced at her happily and said, "Put it on for uncle."

After putting on the bouquet, Chen Daniu and others looked at him and lifted Wei Yuan up, coaxing him and walking outside.

"Get the bride!"

"."

Seeing this, Minglan was also very happy.

Soon, the front yard.

Wei Shuyi looked at them actually "carrying" Wei Yuan out, and heard everyone around him laughing. He frowned, came to the crowd, and said:

"Put it down, let it go, let outsiders see what it looks like."

"I'm going to Zhang's house later. Don't make such a fuss. It's just a joke."

Wei Shuyi is the eldest sister of Wei Yuan, and naturally the eldest sister of Chen Daniu and others.

They didn't dare not listen to what the eldest sister said, so they quickly put Wei Yuan down.

Wei Yuan stood up, kicked Chen Daniu, and said: "I will settle the accounts with you one by one after today's matter is over."

Then, in front of everyone, he laughed loudly and said: "Fetch the bride!"

Hearing this, Chen Daniu and others followed him and laughed one after another.

There is no need to be too serious about getting married. As long as it is lively, the wedding will be successful.

The moment Wei Yuan climbed onto the tall horse, many people and young women who were watching around him exclaimed.

They really envy Zhang Guifen for being able to marry such a unique hero!

After Wei Yuan got on his horse, Chen Daniu and others also mounted their horses one after another and headed to the British Duke's Mansion along the red carpet spread on the street.

After seeing Chen Daniu, Qin Zhen, the eldest son of Duke Fu, and others, many people secretly marveled and commented:

"All the young generals we can count in our Zhou Dynasty are here!"

"Is that the legitimate son of An Guogong? The eldest son of the Korean family is also here."

"These are the best among our young generation!"

"Now, we are all following General Wei to welcome the bride."

"In the future, these young generals will be the mainstay of our country's dynasty!"

"."

The more they spoke, the more shocked they became.

The young generals were all following Wei Yuan to welcome the bride.

This is extremely rare in the history of the country.

If one day, when Zhang Fu's generation grows old, Wei Yuan will be the well-deserved number one in the military!

Later, the soldiers of the Forbidden Army who were originally guarding both sides of the street raised their halberds high and stood at the forefront of the welcoming procession. They were so majestic that people were stunned.

"Commanders of the Forbidden Army, are you going to welcome the bride in person?"

"This is unbelievable!"

"As expected of Uncle Zhongyong! He is the only one who can get this honor by marrying a wife!"

"."

The soldiers of the Forbidden Army opened the way to welcome the bride, which is really unprecedented!

Soon, the wedding team arrived at the British government palace.

Many people couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw the Forbidden Army officers clearing the way and Wei Yuan riding a tall horse slowly approaching.

"The groom's official is here!"

"The groom is here!"

"There are so many brave soldiers clearing the way. It's really impressive!"

"yes!"

"."

Zhang Fu and his wife sitting in the main hall were all smiling.

At this moment, Zhang Guifen was staying in her boudoir. After hearing the noise outside, she couldn't help but clench her hands tightly, obviously very nervous.

A maid opened the door and said with a smile: "Girl, Uncle Wei is here to pick you up."

Hearing the sound, Zhang Guifen's cheeks turned red with embarrassment and she lowered her head and said nothing.

It is said that outside the gate of the British government.

When Wei Yuan and others dismounted and wanted to go to the mansion, they were stopped by Zhang Ding, Zhang Zhan, and Zhang Rui who came from Daizhou.

Chen Daniu said angrily: "Brother Wei treated you well in the past, why are you causing trouble at this juncture?"

Zhang Ding was not afraid at all and said: "Brother Chen, what you said makes no sense. Although we are usually on good terms with Brother Wei, if he wants to marry my sister, it cannot be so easy."

Zhang Zhan chuckled and said, "Our 'brother-in-law' is a general who is powerful in the enemy's country, so we don't care about my brother-in-law's military skills."

"How about this, reciting a poem and letting you pass through here?"

Reciting poetry?

Chen Daniu and others subconsciously took several steps back.

Obviously he couldn't help Wei Yuan.

Wei Yuan gave a bitter smile and said: "Three brothers, please retreat quickly and save these links."

Zhang Rui shook his head and said: "Rules are rules, how can we save them?"

At this time, Xu Changzhi secretly glanced at Chen Daniu.

Chen Dali Newton suddenly understood and joined forces with Qin Zhen, Yang Huairen and others, and acquiesced to three numbers in his heart.

Suddenly, everyone rushed into the house,

"Brother, let's go!"

"quick!"

"."

They were huge and strong, and in just an instant, they broke through the blockade of Zhang Ding and the others.

Help Wei Yuan enter the house.

Seeing this, Zhang Ding and others said depressedly:

"How can there be such a thing?"

"That's right, Brother Wei, you are not sincere!"

"."

Wei Yuan ignored the three people, gave Chen Daniu and others a thumbs up, and walked towards the main hall.

As soon as you arrive at the main hall, it's time to pick up the bride.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the front yard, he saw several noble ladies with whom Zhang Guifen had a good relationship, blocking his way.

Just listen to them laughing one after another:

"If General Wei wants to marry Sister Guifen, he must be sincere."

"That's right. You, General Wei, may pass the poetry test by luck, but you must not cheat again in our test, or we will tell Sister Guifen."

"."

Wei Yuan had a headache. He could still be tough with Zhang Ding and the other three.

But facing these noble ladies in front of him, he couldn't be tough at all.

"Sisters, what do you want?"

As soon as the voice fell, the little daughter of the Korean Duke clapped her hands.

Then, the servants of Zhang's house brought two jars of wine.

Seeing this, Wei Yuan was stunned.

"Sisters, you are too much. These are two jars!"

The little daughter of the Korean Duke laughed and said:

"I heard that General Wei has a huge capacity for wine. I believe he is not afraid of these two jars of wine. After drinking, we will let General Wei in, how about it?"

Wei Yuan's mouth twitched.

If he really drinks it all in one breath, can he still stand up and walk?

I'm afraid he won't be able to get hard at night!

He said, "I'd better write a poem!"

The beautiful women insisted:

"No, you have to drink it!"

"Even if you can't finish it, you can't drink it all!"

"."

Just when Wei Yuan was worried, Qin Zhen suddenly cried out, "Who pushed me?!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw that the two jars of wine were knocked over on the ground.

Everyone was shocked to see that it was not wine at all? It was clearly two jars of aged vinegar.

If you drink it, the taste, tut tut, must be extremely sour.

Qin Zhen winked at Wei Yuan.

The youngest daughter of the Fuguo family, that is, Qin Zhen's biological sister, immediately stamped her feet in anger and said:

"Brother, how can you do this! You are too bullying! Too cheating!"

"No, you can't let Zhongyong Bo pass like this, no!"

After that, the little girl actually opened her arms and refused to let Wei Yuan pass.

Wei Yuan glanced at Qin Zhen, "Take care of your sister!"

Qin Zhen said helplessly: "My father loves her too much!"

Wei Yuan had to speak, "Good sister, I'll invite you to Fanlou to enjoy delicious food another day, how about letting me go first?"

She still refused to give in, "You want to send me away with a meal?"

Wei Yuan immediately understood and said with a smile: "Changzhi, Daniu, where is the tea money that my elder sister gave you?"

Then, the two took out several large bags of silver and jewelry from their arms and threw them all to the women,

"Here!"

"."

While the women were scrambling for the joy, Wei Yuan had already entered the main hall.

They took the tea money and each of them held some homemade tea and snacks, came to Chen Daniu and others, and invited the groom's brothers to drink tea and eat cakes.

They were single men and women. If any woman liked any man at this stage, she would leave her handkerchief.

The woman who served tea to Chen Daniu was Qin Zhen's sister.

Chen Daniu kept grinning at Qin Zhen's sister Qin Jianjia.

Qin Zhen suddenly felt something was wrong and couldn't help but say, "Chen Yuanzhi! If you dare to hit on my sister, I will kill you!"

Chen Daniu uttered an "ah" and looked stunned.

Seeing this, the petite Qin Jianjia burst into laughter.

This laugh made Chen Daniu infatuated.

Qin Zhen couldn't help it and kicked him hard.

Chen Daniu realized it later and said quickly, "Brother-in-law, bah, no, General Qin, don't get me wrong."

Seeing this, Qin Jianjia kept covering her mouth and laughing.

Chen Daniu was very disappointed. Seeing her laughing all the time, his saliva was about to flow out.

Wei Yuan stood not far outside the main hall.

He was waiting for the arrival of the bride, and then he served tea to Zhang Fu and his wife with her.

After Chen Daniu and others finished their tea, they hurried here.

At this time, several nobles of Wei Yuan's uncles and aunts came here together, all looking at Wei Yuan with unhappy faces, and said one after another:

"When I entered the door just now, I heard that you cheated?"

"Why, marrying my eldest brother's daughter is not worthy of you to follow the rules?"

"Boy, our eldest brother will not say anything, but Guifen is a girl that we have watched grow up, and we can't hand her over to you so easily!"

"."

Hearing the speeches of the elders such as Duke of Korea and Duke of Fuguo.

Wei Yuan was crying without tears.

We are here, why are there still troubles?

He looked at Qin Zhen, Xu Changzhi and others.

But he saw that they hid one by one.

Yes, after all, they are just the best among the young generation of generals.

Now standing in front of them are some veterans, seniors, and even their own fathers.

How dare they act rashly?

They had to cast a look of "take care of yourself" at Wei Yuan.

Wei Yuan said with a sad face: "Uncles, please spare my nephew!"

In the crowd, Gu Yankai, with a pale face, slowly came to Wei Yuan with the help of servants and said with a smile:

"When our eldest brother, your mentor, got married, he once performed a tripod-lifting performance."

"I heard that you are as strong as an ox, can you lift the tripod?"

As soon as the voice fell, several servants of Zhang's house came here carrying a tripod.

Wei Yuan looked at the big tripod, which must be at least more than 150 kilograms.

"If you can lift this tripod, uncles will not embarrass my nephew anymore?"

Wei Yuan asked.

Gu Yankai nodded.

Wei Yuan said: "Simple!"

Then, everyone saw him come to the big tripod, take a deep breath, hold the two ears of the tripod tightly with both hands, and shout, "Get up!"

The next moment, the tripod was lifted by him.

The audience could not help but applaud,

"Wow! General Wei is really powerful!"

"It's amazing that he lifted the tripod so easily!"

"."

Seeing this, Gu Yankai and others also smiled with relief.

They knew that Wei Yuan was strong, so they asked him to lift the tripod not to make it difficult.

But to promote a good story.

"The bride is here!"

A maid said loudly.

Suddenly, Zhang Guifen, dressed in red and dressed up, came slowly.

Her wedding dress was awarded by the queen herself, and it was extremely noble.

Even the gauze fan covering her face was woven with gold thread.

With the help of the maid, Zhang Guifen was sent to Zhang Fu.

Zhang Fu took Zhang Guifen to Wei Yuan to perform the greeting ceremony.

Then, the two came to the main hall.

Zhang Fu returned to his seat.

The newlyweds knelt down to pay homage to Zhang Guifen's parents, and then served tea.

Logically speaking, when a daughter gets married, parents will definitely feel sad.

But at this moment, there is no trace of sadness on the faces of Zhang Fu and his wife, but joy instead.

They are really happy to see Zhang Guifen marry Wei Yuan.

It can be regarded as a relief.

When offering tea to Zhang Fu, Zhang Fu deliberately said:

"You kid, if you dare to bully my precious daughter, I will teach you a lesson!"

Wei Yuan said: "Teacher, how dare I?"

Someone on the side said:

"Groom, why do you still call me teacher?"

"."

Wei Yuan smiled immediately, and hurriedly held the tea and said to Zhang Fu respectfully:

"Father-in-law, please drink the son-in-law's tea."

After that, Zhang Fu drank the tea unwillingly.

When Wei Yuan offered tea to Madam Zhang, Madam Zhang did not say anything.

But when it was Zhang Guifen's turn, Madam Zhang told her:

"You must take care of your husband and children in the future, and be a good wife to Yuan'er. If I hear that you are being naughty again, I will not forgive you!"

Zhang Guifen pursed her lips and said, "How dare my daughter?"

When this was said, everyone laughed again.

Sure enough, if you are not from the same family, you will not enter the same door!

After completing the tea-serving part.

Wei Yuan can take his wife out.

At this time, Qin Jianjia and the other women started to make a noise:

"Brother-in-law, it is said that before this woman gets on the sedan chair, her feet cannot touch the ground. Please carry Sister Guifen on your back when she goes out."

"That's right, I must carry Sister Guifen on my back when she goes out!"

"."

For some reason, Wei Yuan was a little shy at this time.

Zhang Guifen felt sorry for Wei Yuan, and suddenly said, "Just scatter some petals on the ground. Please be merciful, sisters, and let your brother-in-law go."

If this happened in an ordinary family, they would definitely say that the bride didn't know the rules, and she didn't even leave the house, and she was already talking nonsense.

But she is Zhang Guifen!

She is the only daughter of the Duke of Ying's mansion.

When she said that, she was a symbol of being heroic and casual.

Women like Qin Jianjia rarely go out on weekdays, and don't hang out with Rong Feiyan and others.

So in the circle of noble ladies in the capital, they don't seem to exist.

However, only these people can truly represent the "noble ladies of high families" in the capital.

"Sister, don't say that. We love to see your brother-in-law carrying you!"

"That's right. If your brother-in-law doesn't carry you, then we sisters will have to carry you out."

"."

Hearing their voices, Zhang Guifen shook her head secretly.

These girls are good in every way, but their temperaments are too jumpy.

At this moment.

Suddenly, Wei Yuan directly picked up Zhang Guifen horizontally, causing her to cry out,

"Ah."

"Brother Wei, put me down quickly, I'm so embarrassed."

"My parents are still watching from behind."

Zhang Guifen's voice became smaller and smaller, and she simply put her head on Wei Yuan's chest, not daring to look at the crowd.

There was a faint fragrance on her body, refreshing.

Wei Yuan took a deep breath and whispered: "Still call me brother Wei?"

Zhang Guifen's cheeks flushed immediately. No matter what, she couldn't say the word "husband" in front of everyone.

Wei Yuan didn't embarrass her, but held Zhang Guifen and walked out.

For a while, there were noises of booing all around.

Qin Jianjia and others hurriedly walked in front of Wei Yuan, scattering flower petals, rice, mung beans and other things, implying that they would branch out.

Chen Daniu and others followed Wei Yuan closely, bowing to Zhang Guifen who was held horizontally in his arms and saying:

"Hello, sister-in-law!"

"."

Zhang Guifen gradually lost herself in the voice of "sister-in-law".

Wei Yuan personally carried Zhang Guifen to the sedan chair.

Afterwards, he climbed on the horse and waved to Chen Daniu and others.

But they were unmoved.

They looked at each other.

Wei Yuan was puzzled.

Suddenly, they came to the sedan chair, drove away the driver, and said with a smile:

"Brothers, let's carry sister-in-law's sedan chair ourselves!"

"Sister-in-law, sit tight, brothers, get up!"

"Brothers, let's go! Send sister-in-law home!"

"."

At this moment, not only Wei Yuan, but everyone else was surprised, muttering:

"After this, who dares to say that marrying a daughter can be as glorious as the Duke of Ying's mansion?"

"Yes, the imperial guards led the way, and the generals of each camp and army carried the sedan chair themselves. This treatment is unheard of!"

"Qin Zhen and Xu Changzhi are both outstanding young generals. Only the daughter of the Duke of England can enjoy such treatment by having them carry the sedan chair."

"."

The soldiers of the imperial guards led the way, and the generals of various armies carried the sedan chair. This was an unprecedented wedding event in the Great Zhou Dynasty!
