On the sixth day, before dawn, the entire Liu Mansion had already begun to be lively.
There were not enough servants in the house, Liu Yi instructed Yao Lie and Zhang Fei to call the two hundred soldiers to help, a few maids to serve Wang San to dress up, and the rest of the people began to decorate the venue.
After everyone hastily ate some breakfast, Liu Yi saw that the hour was almost up, so he called everyone to prepare to marry the bride.
Liu Yi and Zhang Fei accompanied Wang San to marry the bride, Cui Si was at home ready to greet those who came to congratulate, and Yao Lie took the soldiers to maintain order on the road.
When everyone walked out of the house, the streets outside were already full of people watching the excitement, Liu Yi ordered people to organize the people who were watching, and then distributed the money and property that was intended to be distributed to the people to the people who came to watch in an orderly manner.
Wang San was dressed in a big red robe at this time, with a big red flower on his chest, and sat down on a white horse that Liu Yi specially selected for him yesterday, walking in front of everyone with a smile, Liu Yi and Zhang Fei accompanied him, and behind him was a sedan chair carried by four people, the body of the sedan chair was wrapped in red cloth, and the four corners of the sedan chair were decorated with fiery red phoenix brocade tassels, implying peace and stability. Behind the sedan chair are the drum musicians Cui Si found in various towns and villages, some play trumpets and suona, some play copper cymbal skin drums, blowing and playing all the way, so lively. On both sides of the line, fifty soldiers divided into two teams, armed with silver spears, marched in unison to protect the whole team.
The team slowly moved forward, after about half an hour, the greeting team finally came to Mafu, only to see that at this time Mafu was full of red lanterns and happy words, Maxian Cheng and his wife also put on a beautiful new clothes, seeing the arrival of the greeting team, the two of them hurriedly came to greet with all the servants.
"I've seen the county magistrate!"
Seeing this, Liu Yi hurriedly dismounted and helped Ma Xiancheng up, and said with a smile, "Ma Lao doesn't need to be polite, today is not divided into official positions, only the eldest and youngest, today you are the biggest, I should give you a salute!" After speaking, Liu Yi bent down and bowed to Ma Xiancheng, who accepted Liu Yi's salute with a smile.
Wang San and others on the side also turned over and dismounted, Wang San under the guidance of Mr. Etiquette, Tsushima County Cheng and his wife carried out the kissing ceremony, after the ceremony, only to see the bride covering the head in the backyard from the backyard to the front of everyone under the support of the two matchmakers, Wang San saw the bride and hurriedly stepped forward to pick up the bride and went out of the door, the monkey anxious appearance caused everyone to laugh.
After the bride got on the sedan chair, the team set off again, and before the whole team was stronger, at this time, the wedding sedan chair on both sides followed by the bride with heavy makeup, followed by the personal maid in the boudoir of the horse house, there was a sedan chair behind the wedding sedan chair, which sat the Ma County Cheng couple, followed by the sedan chair in addition to the band that was playing the music and the family who escorted the dowry, the whole team drove towards the Liu Mansion in a mighty way.
Near noon, Liu's mansion was already full of squires and celebrities who had come to congratulate, including Blacksmith Li and several of his apprentices who were specially invited by Liu Yi.
As soon as the welcoming team left in the morning, Cui Si ordered someone to stand guard at 500 meters to report the return of the welcoming team at all times.
"It's coming! Here it comes! A sentry servant hurriedly ran into Liu's mansion and shouted.
"Hurry, hurry! Give Lao Tzu a little bit of money for a while! Cui Si saw that the welcoming team was coming back immediately, and hurriedly ordered the servants and soldiers who remained in the mansion to prepare to greet them.
After a while, the greeting team finally arrived in front of the Liu Mansion from the bustling crowd, and at this time, both sides of the door were already full of squires and celebrities who came out to greet them.
At Cui Si's command, the deafening sound of firecrackers rang out.
......
The whole wedding lasted all day, and near evening, the whole wedding was over after everyone sent the two newlyweds into the cave room, and after the banquet, Liu Yi and others sent away a group of squires, only Li Blacksmith and several of his apprentices were left by Liu Yi.
After Liu Yi instructed Cui Si to pack the food left over from the banquet and distribute it to the people outside, he took Blacksmith Li and others to his room in the backyard.
Everyone chatted while drinking the decanting tea brought by the maids, and Blacksmith Li and several apprentices were very restrained at first, but under Liu Yi's enthusiastic greeting, they slowly put down the previous mustard and chatted with everyone.
"Masters, I left you here because Liu had something to ask for, and I hope you masters will agree!" Seeing that the atmosphere was thick at this time, Liu Yi respectfully made his request to Blacksmith Li and his apprentices.
Seeing that Liu Yi was so respectful, Blacksmith Li hurriedly knelt down with several apprentices and said, "My lord, I have been flattered to invite me to the wedding banquet regardless of previous suspicions!" If the adults have something to order, the old child and others are willing to go to the soup for the adults, even if they want the life of the old child and others, we will not give up! ”
Liu Yi helped Blacksmith Li and the others up, held Blacksmith Li's hand and said with a smile, "I don't want your lives, I want you to live well!" You have to live well to help me do things! ”
"Live well! I'm going to live well! When Blacksmith Li heard that Liu Yi was going to let them do things for Liu Yi, he was moved to tears.
After Liu Yi comforted Blacksmith Li and the others, he told everyone what he thought.
It turned out that when everyone ambushed Sun Yu, Liu Yi saw the power of the new-style ring-head knife, and everyone was able to ambush Sun Yu with a perfect record of zero casualties In addition to Yao Lie, Zhang Fei and others' own excellent quality, those new-style ring-head knives also made great contributions. Since returning to Zhuoxian, Liu Yi has been thinking about how to build stronger weapons in batches, thinking for a long time, and finally Liu Yi thought of Li Blacksmith and others, although Li Blacksmith had betrayed Liu Yi before, but his skills in building weapons are still very superb, so Liu Yi deliberately left Li Blacksmith and others this time, and wanted to discuss the matter of weapon manufacturing.
"Master Li, I want to set up a weapons research institute in the county, which is responsible for researching and building weapons; I want you to be a teacher, responsible for building weapons and teaching apprentices, I don't know if you are willing! ”
When Li Blacksmith and the others heard that Liu Yi was going to set up a special department for building weapons, they were immediately interested, and when they heard Liu Yi invite everyone to be the first batch of members of the research institute, they couldn't help themselves with excitement.
"Lord Meng will not give up, the old child and his apprentices are willing to swear to serve the adult!" Blacksmith Li and several of his apprentices kowtowed and wept.
"Everyone, please get up! With your help, I believe that we will be able to create a magic weapon that moves the world! Liu Yi hurriedly helped everyone up.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Liu Yi briefly talked to Blacksmith Li and the others about his thoughts, and then instructed them to go back and prepare for preparations, and come back in two days to discuss the specific matters of the Weapons Research Institute.
After Blacksmith Li and the others left, only Liu Yi, Zhang Fei, Yao Lie and Cui Si and the four people who had just returned from busy work were left in the house.
Liu Yi saw that it was not too late, so he thought about telling the three of them about his recent thoughts for the future, Liu Yi looked at the three people in front of him, and after thinking about it, he took the lead in looking at Zhang Fei.
"Yide, I plan to hand over the two hundred people that the county guard gave us to you to manage, although the number is not much, as long as it is properly trained, it will definitely become a strong team!"
When Zhang Fei heard Liu Yi say that he would hand over the 200 soldiers to himself, he patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, lord!" I will definitely live up to the high expectations of my lord! ”
Seeing Zhang Fei so confidently reassuring himself, Liu Yi nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Yao Lie on the side.
"Yao Lie, I'm going to give you a heavy responsibility!"
"Please command, my lord!" Yao Lie heard that Liu Yi was going to give himself a heavy responsibility, and he was busy sitting down and said solemnly.
"I want to set up a special team that can fight under all kinds of harsh conditions, and at present, only you and the seventeen brothers you brought with us are capable of taking on this important task, so I plan to appoint you to lead this team."
"Thank you, my lord!" Yao Lie, who is usually steady, also raised his fists and bare sleeves excitedly after listening to Liu Yi's words at this time.
Liu Yi was very relieved to see Yao Lie's happy appearance, knowing that he didn't look at the wrong person.
"I've already thought of the name of your team, let's call it "Scorpion", I hope you can be like a scorpion to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy even in the harshest conditions! ”
"I will live up to the high expectations of my lord!"
"Lord, are we going to war?" Cui Si, who was on the side, asked puzzled when he saw that Liu Yi had appointed Zhang Fei and Yao Lie successively.
After Liu Yi heard Cui Si's question, he stood up and walked to the door, pushed open the door, looked up at the dark night sky above his head, and said quietly, "Troubled times are coming!" If you want to live, you have to prepare early! ”
Zhang Fei and the three of them behind him looked at each other, all of them wondering why Liu Yi made such an exclamation at this time.
"Lord, since you said that the troubled times are coming, then what can I do, Brother Yide and Brother Yao have their own teams, do you think you can also give me some people, let me also set up a "wild boar" team or something? ”
Liu Yi heard Cui Si say that he was going to set up a "wild boar" team, and he almost didn't laugh out loud, so he turned around and scolded with a smile, "You are responsible for wandering around!" ”
"Huh? Wandering? No, no, why do they both have such a great team, and I can only wander around? Lord, you are too partial! After Cui Si finished speaking, he brushed up on the side.
Zhang Fei saw that Cui Si took out that scoundrel look again, and went up to the back of Cui Si's neck is a big-necked slipper, which hurt Cui Si's straight porcelain teeth.
"You kid may not even be able to beat that sick blacksmith Li, you still want to lead the troops?"
"Big brother, don't look down on people, if you don't believe it, when Blacksmith Li comes, I'll compare with him and let you see" Cui Si cried out while holding his neck.
Yao Lie, who was in a good mood on the side, also pointed at Cui Si at this time and said with a smile: "Look at your kid's unpromising appearance, you kid can also bully and bully an old man like Blacksmith Li."
"Lord, look at them! They all bully me! ”
Liu Yi walked up to Cui Si with a smile when he heard this, patted Cui Si's shoulder, and said solemnly, "Si'er, don't listen to them, I'm not letting you wander in vain, I want you to ask me back some useful information when you wander."
Cui Si heard the words and said aggrievedly: "Isn't that just a spy!" It's a lot worse than theirs."
Liu Yi saw that Cui Si was a little dissatisfied with his arrangement, and comforted him with a smile, "Hey~ I can't say that, in the future, I am going to set up an intelligence unit to be responsible for collecting intelligence from all over the country, and I am ready to put you in charge of this team at that time!" ”
"Ahh ”
"Of course it's true!"
"Thank you, my lord!" Cui Si saw that Liu Yi promised him such an important position, and happily hurriedly poured Liu Yi a new cup of tea.
Cui Si asked flatteringly while handing tea to Liu Yi, "Lord, how many people are there under my hands?" ”
"Hiss~ You're the only one at the moment!"
"What? I'm alone!! Cui Sisi shouted.
"Hahahaha~" Zhang Fei and Yao Lie on the side couldn't straighten up when they heard the words.
