Chapter 308: Is This Wedding Grand?
The main thing about the wedding is that Zhang Zhao is preparing, and he is ready at this time.
At the beginning of the wedding, Zhang Yu's Wenchen generals arrived, and many county orders also arrived.
This time, Zhang Yu asked Cai Yong to preside.
Cai Yong's prestige is naturally no problem.
When Zhang Yu invited Cai Yong, he gladly accepted.
Cai Yong has already regarded Jijun as his home.
In the morning, Zhang Yu put on the clothes of the groom's officer.
The wedding was arranged in the county guard's mansion, and the place where the bride was picked up was also in the city, so Zhang Yu bought a house for the Xiang family in the city.
Near noon, Zhang Yu rode on his horse and prepared to pick up the bride.
At the front of the team, Dian Wei and Zhao Yun started, followed by a squad of soldiers, and then Zhang Yu rode a horse.
Behind is a long line.
"Look, that's our Taishou-sama."
"Great benefactor."
"Today is the wedding of our great benefactor, and we pray for them together."
"Without the great benefactor, we would have starved to death in the troubled times, hurry up and salute the great benefactor."
Zhang Yu appeared publicly on the street for the first time, and usually he appeared on the street without pomp, and no one knew him, so he didn't know that this would happen.
Both sides of the street were full of people, and everyone congratulated Zhang Yu together.
On the way, many people even knelt on the ground to salute Zhang Yu.
They were all rescued by Zhang Yu in the troubled times.
Now that I have a good life in Huiji County, I know that Zhang Yu is married, and I came to thank him.
The people are the most simple, Zhang Yu gave them life and gave them a good life, and they kept it in their hearts.
"What a good people, what a good time." Zhang Yu couldn't help but sigh.
Zhang Yu continued to move forward with the welcoming team, and the people on the road consciously lined up in two rows, and no one made trouble.
At this time, the whole county town was full of people.
Zhang Yu's wedding is not a secret in Huiji County, and the people knew about it more than a month ago.
Therefore, when Zhang Yu got married, the people rushed over.
"Oh my God, I finally saw the great benefactor, I brought a few flatbreads last night, and then waited outside the city, and entered the city early in the morning."
"I hope that the great benefactor will live a long life and always protect us."
"I came three days ago, I came in the newly zoned Fujian area, and I came a few days in advance, for fear of delaying the wedding of the great benefactor."
"No, I've been here for two days."
"The food at home is enough to feed five people, and I couldn't eat enough before, so how dare I think of today's life."
"Yes, they are all great benefactors, not only can our family be fed, but my son has also married a daughter-in-law."
The people did not leave after waiting for Zhang Yu to pass, but talked about their experiences and why they came to Zhang Yu's wedding.
Zhang Yu could hear part of it, and his heart was extremely moved.
The team continued to move forward, Zhang Yu could no longer remain calm, and he frequently saluted the people on both sides.
"Salute!"
Outside Xiang's mansion, Zhang Yu heard a strong voice.
He saw hundreds of people in a neat row saluting him.
Tears fell instantly, and Zhang Yu saw that they had an obvious military temperament.
However, their bodies were mutilated, some with severed hands and some with severed feet.
But no matter what was missing, they were all neatly lined up.
They were soldiers, or had been soldiers, and now they are discharged because of their disabilities.
"Salute!"
Zhang Yu jumped off his horse, stood in front of them, and saluted them.
All the people who greeted their relatives, except for those who carried the dowry, the rest followed Zhang Yu to salute them.
These are their former comrades.
Some faces Zhang Yu still recognized, and even some were trained by him personally.
Zhang Yu has always had a particularly generous treatment for soldiers.
The treatment is not only a high military salary, but also the family can get land, plough cattle, and reduce a part of the field tax every year.
For the disabled soldiers, Zhang Yu has not forgotten them, and they are also treated well.
For most of them, Zhang Yu arranged for them to train militia on the farm and participate in ordinary security patrols.
So these soldiers were very moved, in this era when people were like mustard, they knew what Zhang Yu had done for them.
If one person is a soldier, the whole family is not hungry, Zhang Yu can do it.
Zhang Yu couldn't take care of everyone under his rule, but for these people who worked hard for him and for the territory, Zhang Yu still took care of them as much as possible.
After saluting, Zhang Yu said: "Thank you, and at the same time, all the people under my rule should also thank you, it is you who have protected their homes and fought for the future." ”
Zhang Yu didn't dare to say too much, so he hurried in to greet his relatives.
After entering, the bride was ready, because of Zhang Yu's status, no one deliberately embarrassed him, but successfully picked up the bride.
When Zhang Yu went back, the people were still there, and they were still bless Zhang Yu in their own way.
Zhang Yu can do nothing but be moved.
What Zhang Yu didn't know was that in addition to the people in the city, there were many people who blessed Zhang Yu outside the city because they couldn't enter the city.
Not only was Zhang Yu moved, but Zhang Yu's subordinates didn't expect Zhang Yu to have such a high reputation.
Zhang Yu is outside, and his reputation is already stinky, and it can't stink anymore.
Whatever is lustful, shameless, brutal, and whatever is bad, say anything about him.
But in the territory, no one can do Zhang Yu to be loved by the people like this.
Everyone had to reassess Zhang Yu and re-look at the force they were fighting for.
Gao Shun was also stunned, he didn't expect Zhang Yu's wedding to happen to him that he couldn't believe it.
Zhang Yu picked up the bride and arrived at the county guard mansion smoothly.
The ceremonies went very smoothly, and after the ceremonies, the banquet began.
"Haha, the best fairy brew, the emperor's wedding can't have this pomp." After the start, Dian Wei directly hugged a jar of fairy brew.
On the table of today's wedding, there is nothing else, and the gods are enough.
Zhang Yu invited dozens of tables, all of whom were more important people in the territory, but he didn't expect that there would be so many people outside.
"Zibu, you go and transport all the wine in the warehouse, and let the soldiers set up some points inside and outside the city, and give a bowl to the people outside."
Zhang Yu was moved, in order to participate in his wedding, these people couldn't let them go back like this.
Zhang Zhao immediately received the order to do it, and he was also very moved.
Those people didn't expect Zhang Yu to invite them to drink.
"I was able to drink the wine of the great benefactor."
"This wine must be drunk, but we didn't bring a congratulatory gift."
"Yes, it's not okay to drink other people's wedding wine without a congratulatory gift."
"But what do we have to offer?"
The people, after they were happy, were also worried.
Zhang Zhao soon got the news, and he didn't know what to do now, the people are simple, and they have to give congratulatory gifts when they drink happy wine, how simple it is.
The situation was reflected to Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu thought for a while and said: "Drink the wine first, and make up the congratulatory gift later, as long as it is no more than one copper plate of the congratulatory gift, accept it, and send it directly to the county government of each county, and the county government will send it to me." ”
Zhang Yu thought for a while and said, "Go and transport a batch of jerky, and when they go back, each person will send a piece of jerky for them to eat on the road." ”
Zhang Yu originally wanted to have a low-key wedding, but he didn't expect it to be so grand that two or three hundred thousand people came to congratulate him.
Zhang Yu was afraid that they would not drink the wedding wine, which would make them regret it, so he asked them to hand over congratulatory gifts.
However, it is stipulated that the value cannot exceed one copper plate.
Although they can eat enough now, they are still very poor, and Zhang Yu can't let them have an extra burden.
