Causeway Lane is an ordinary alley in Luoyang City, but because Taifu Sima Yi's mansion is located in Causeway Lane, this ordinary alley has become unusual.

This mansion of the Sima family was given by Cao Rong when he was alive, and Sima Yi was still the Taiwei of the dynasty at that time, so this mansion was called the Taiwei Mansion at that time, and now Sima Yi has been promoted to the Taifu, and naturally this mansion is called the Taifu Mansion.

Causeway Lane, on the other hand, is privately known as Sima Lane.

Tongluo Lane is adjacent to Tongtuo Street, and compared with the wide and prosperous Tongtuo Street, Tongluo Lane is much narrower and more deserted, which is quite a bit of a quiet meaning.

Sima Yi is very fond of this mansion, because it is relatively low-key and introverted without losing luxury, there is stillness in movement, movement in stillness, and movement and stillness complement each other, which is very similar to Sima Yi's own low-key and forbearant style.

It has been ten years since Sima's family moved to Causeway Lane.

Although Causeway Lane has a wealthy family like the Sima family, the plain Causeway Lane is quiet and plain, and it is very different from the busy General's Mansion.

However, people who woke up this morning found that the tranquility and serenity of Causeway Lane had been completely broken, and the horse-drawn carriages pouring in from all directions almost blocked the entrance to Causeway Lane.

These carriages are not ordinary carriages, all of them are luxuriously decorated, the carriages are not made of rosewood, or made of mahogany, even the curtains hanging in the windows of the carriage are also expensive Shu brocade, and the horses that pull the carriages are all extraordinary, either Dawan Liangju or Saiwai Baoji.

Needless to say, the passengers in these carriages are all dignitaries of the dynasty and have a respected status.

The entrance to Tongluo Lane is narrow, and the most luxurious carriages can't enter, so the steward of Sima Mansion is busy, so he can only arrange these carriages to be parked on Tongluo Street.

Now the parking spaces on Tongtuo Street are also extremely scarce, the guests who come earlier can at least park not far from the Tongluo Lane, and the guests who come farther can only park in a farther place, get off and walk to the Taifu Mansion.

When I arrived just now, the guests who went to the Taifu Mansion were already crowded, and all of these guests were Eguan Bo, talking and laughing, and they all felt that it was a great honor to be invited by the Sima family to attend the wedding.

Although Sima Shi is already married for the third time, such a grand wedding is the first time.

After all, when Sima Shi married his wife for the first time, Sima Yi's identity was not so noble, and the scale of the wedding was not too large, and when he married Wu Zhen's daughter for the second time, Sima Yi was still in the Longxi Army, busy with Zhuge Liang to make the final rounds, and he didn't care about Sima Shi's marriage at all, so the wedding was even more sloppy.

And this time Sima Shi married his wife again, and the situation changed a lot.

The first is the promotion of Sima Yi's status, now Sima Yi is the Taifu, listed above the three dukes, you don't care if he has real power, but that noble status is real. As an auxiliary minister, Sima Yi's status in the court is now second only to the general Cao Shuang, and he is an existence that many civil and military officials need to look up to.

With this identity, Sima Yi just wants to be more low-key, it is impossible, for example, this time the banquet list makes Sima Yi very nerve-wracking, who to invite or not to invite has to be considered repeatedly, originally only prepared to invite three or two hundred people, but in the end it became a scale of nearly 1,000 people, which is really helpless.

Except for his own protégé and former officials, as long as it is a minister who has no grievances, it is impossible for Sima Yi to exclude him, after all, Sima Yi is playing to win people's hearts, how can he offend some people because of a wedding?

Even if these people are not close to the Sima family, it is impossible for Sima Yi to refuse them out of etiquette.

Therefore, during this time, it has become a great honor to be able to get the invitation card of the Sima family, even if you have to pay money to attend the wedding, but no one complains about this.

On the contrary, those who didn't get the invitation had a black face all day long, as if someone owed him tens of thousands of yuan and didn't pay it back, and they were extremely depressed.

The marriage between the wealthy families is often regarded as a political alliance, which people are well aware of, the status of the Sima family in the court is already in full swing, and if it is married to the Yang family again, the power is incomparably huge.

Those who tried to marry the Sima family and the Yang family all brought heavy gifts to congratulate, and the gold, silver and jewelry were piled up, which was also a good opportunity for the Sima family to collect money.

Shangshu Cao Dianshi Yang Chi is just a seven-grade petty official, and he is not a protégé of the Sima family, but he was also lucky to get the invitation card of the Sima family this time, and he was so excited that he almost didn't sleep all night.

Although it is said that the general Cao Shuang is more powerful, the threshold of other people's places is too high, and ordinary people can't climb it if they want to.

This time, the invitation of the Sima family gave Yang Chi great confidence, and he prepared a generous gift and rushed to Causeway Lane early.

"Brother Yang, you came early enough."

Someone greeted him behind him, and when Yang Chi looked back, it turned out to be an old acquaintance, Secretary Lang Zhouyi.

Zhou Yi and he were evaluated in the same year, and they were all ranked in the middle grade, except for the ninth grade official, and then Yang Chi was promoted faster, and in less than three years, he was promoted to the seventh grade, and Zhou Yi is still staying in the eighth grade.

Although it is only a grade short, Yang Chi still has a sense of superiority in front of Zhou Yi, and this time the Sima family gave him an invitation, which made Yang Chi excited, thinking that he could leap into the dragon gate from now on and soar.

But he didn't expect that not only did he get the invitation, but even Zhou Yi, who was one level lower than him, could actually be appreciated by the Sima family, and suddenly the sense of superiority in Yang Chi's heart disappeared, and he said curtly: "It turned out to be Brother Zhou, what's the matter, you are also a guest of Sima Taifu?" ”

Zhou Yi smiled and said: "Each other, today's wedding of Prince Sima and the guests of the banquet, but all the officials in the court have received invitations, and Brother Yang can see a lot of colleagues today." ”

Yang Chi's heart suddenly cooled by half, the Sima family, who dared to love him, did not treat him favorably, and adopted the same approach to the officials of the DPRK and China, and did not favor one over the other, it seems that he is really a little self-conscious.
