After the banquet, Liu Broadband's group went to the barracks, there are two large camps in the north and south outside Luoyang City, the Jincun military camp is the northern camp, the tiger and leopard battalion in addition to the 10,000 people and horses who participated in the review, there are about 10,000 people and horses in the barracks, in addition, the generals from all over the country have come recently, each general has his own entourage to escort him, each person or every few generals from the same place have three or five hundred, although there are not many, but there are many generals who can't stand it, and the military camp has gathered nearly 20,000 horses.

On the way, Liu Tong followed behind, the first was the bigwigs, and then the entourage of the bigwigs, mainly from the entourage and escorts of the princes and envoys. Among them, the guards of the Xiliang Army are particularly conspicuous, Ma Xiu, who was on the field just now, and a young general who is slightly younger than him are neck and neck, the two are a bit similar in appearance, both have the shadow of Ma Chao, but the two are not as domineering as Ma Chao.

It should be said that several of Ma Teng's sons and nephews are fierce generals. The martial arts that Ma Xiu revealed today are already extraordinary, and his side should be his younger brother Ma Tie, and he is not an ordinary person. Because the two were killed by Cao Cao prematurely, they are not famous in history. But the prestige of Ma Chao and Ma Dai resounded throughout the history of the Three Kingdoms.

Needless to say, Ma Chao is the existence of a top warrior. And Ma Teng's nephew Ma Dai did not let it go. In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Ma Dai and Zhong Xuan defeated him in one look; and Meng Huo also captured him in person; Fight with the busy tooth, and the busy tooth is beheaded; Face to face with Chen Zao, Chen Zao was beheaded. Ma Dai and Wei Yan fought for ten rounds, Ma Dai was defeated, but turned around and shot Wei Yan in the left shoulder with an arrow; fought with Zhang Fei for ten rounds, Ma Dai was defeated, Zhang Fei wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Liu Bei; Later, Ma Dai, as the last member of the Xiliang Five Horses, resolutely embarked on the Northern Expedition, Zhuge Liang told Ma Dai before his death that Wei Yan would be opposed, and asked Ma Dai to pay attention to Wei Yan, Ma Dai lived up to expectations and beheaded Wei Yan with a knife.

Ma Dai's table words are not clear in the history books, some say the word Bozhan, some say the word Zhonghua, but it is not important to say these, the important thing is that now some people even jokingly call Ma Dai Ding Lin, because Martin Lin (Ma Dai) specializes in treating Wei Yan (gastritis). Therefore, it is said that the five horses of Xiliang - Ma Teng, Ma Chao, Ma Dai, Ma Xiu, and Ma Tie are all fierce generals.

Liu Tong thought to himself that if Liu Kuan could recover the Xiliang Five Horses, his strength would undoubtedly increase greatly. The Ma family is still loyal and patriotic on the whole, and how to treat them is a major matter related to the overall situation. At this time, Liu Tong suddenly understood why Yan Rou's character would tolerate Ma Chao so much, and even funded the Xiliang army and let them rob the supplies. It seems that politics still needs to be tolerated to a certain extent.

In this event, Liu Tong became a bystander, and he didn't even play a supporting role. Liu Tong saw that everyone began to inspect the barracks, so he stopped outside the barracks.

Liu Tong was very familiar with the military prestige of the Nationalist Army, and the reason why Liu Kuan took the imperial court officials, especially the dignitaries and envoys from Xiliang, Jingzhou, Hanzhong, Yizhou, and Jiangdong, to visit the military camp was undoubtedly for his purpose.

The National Army is well-equipped, and weapons such as knives, crossbows, and horse crossbows are advanced weapons in this era, and the mysterious weapons such as oil bombs that these people know are impossible to display, which makes them think highly of the strength of the National Army. Because the things on display and the military appearance are enough to shock everyone.

Liu Tong saw that Chen Zhi had been surrounding Xiahou Juan, and the red carp was intoxicated with the appreciation of the red brocade robe, and Han Zong, Lou Ban and others were also lacking interest, so they decided to leave. As soon as they heard that Liu Tong was going back to the city, several people showed relaxed expressions.

There was nothing to say all the way, and after returning to the city, everyone dispersed, and Han Zong, Lou Ban, and Chen Zhi all went home. Liu Tong returned home and was reprimanded by Jinxiu, after all, he was going to get married tomorrow.

Liu Kuan received people from all walks of life and discussed with Liangzhou and Hanzhong about the unified political system, the military system, and the placement and appointment of related personnel. The two sides have engaged in a long tug-of-war, and although there are differences, on the whole, within the framework of Liu Kuan's generous conditions, it seems that there is hope for an agreement. Liu Kuan's bottom line, one is the separation of military and government, and the other is a unified system and orders, and the generals of Liangzhou and Hanzhong can continue to command the troops, but they must not be independent. Civilian officials and generals can be promoted, and they can command the army in other places, except for Ma Chao, who has absolute prestige among the ethnic minorities in Xiliang, other generals must obey the dispatch of the central government and be reappointed.

Although the officials and generals of Hanzhong and Xiliang could be promoted to varying degrees, they were still worried that after Liu Kuan broke them down, they would be suppressed or even murdered one by one. And Liu Kuan did not back down at this point, Ma Teng was hesitating, Zhang Wei and Zhang Zhen did not dare to agree in person, and quickly went to ask Zhang Lu.

And the envoys from Jiangdong, Jingzhou and Yizhou were a little anxious at this time, they also heard the rumors and knew that Hanzhong and Liangzhou were talking to Liu Kuan about returning to Shun. Once successful, Liu Kuan's strength increased greatly, and he completely eliminated the worries from the northwest. In this way, Yizhou directly faced Liu Kuan's pressure and lost the necessary buffer and containment. Jingzhou, on the other hand, was surrounded on three sides by Liu Kuan's forces, and Jiangdong had to face a more powerful north.

The forces of all sides have their own thoughts, and the undercurrents are surging.

On the day of Liu Tong's wedding, Luoyang was full of sensations, both inside and outside the court knew that the prime minister's eldest son, the champion Hou was married today, and they all knew that Liu Tong's wedding was extremely high, not only a large number of officials and generals from other places came to Luoyang, but other princes also sent important ministers to come, and even Ma Teng came in person.

Of course, what they don't know is that Liu Kuan still limits the scale of Liu Tong's wedding. It's just that Tian Feng is the main host, and Zhao Yun is the auxiliary host, and the scope of guest invitations is also strictly controlled. The representatives of the princes are nominally here to attend the wedding, but in fact it is just a name, and the real purpose of coming is well known to the inviters and participants. Among the generals under Liu Kuan, only major generals such as Zhang Xiu, Zhang Jaw, Xu Huang, and Zhao Zhao were invited, and other senior generals who were not the chief officers of the army did not receive invitations to attend the wedding in Liu's mansion.

Zhao Yun was ordered to send a large amount of wine and meat to the generals who did not attend the wedding in the military camp in the north of Luoyang to celebrate.

Although the scale is deliberately limited, when the wedding day is still very festive and lively, Liu Kuan's rule over the years has made the north rich, especially Luoyang, which was dilapidated a few years ago, and has seen the restoration of its former prosperity over the years.

Of course, the simple and kind people attributed all these achievements to Liu Kuan. And Liu Tong's prestige in the hearts of the people is significant, is synonymous with the god of war, but also the hope of the continuation of the people's good life, on this day, in the streets are being stopped or spontaneously, many families made lanterns, flags to hang in front of the door.

Liu Tong, as the groom's official, actually doesn't have much to do, everything is just to follow Tian Feng's arrangement, as for the wedding six ceremonies, asking for names, Najib, recruitment, invitation, and personal welcome, the preliminary work has already been completed, and Liu Tong just fulfills the personal welcome of the day.

The ancient rites are cumbersome, Liu Tong was tossed enough, and Liu Shen, Liu Mo, Wu Ji, Luo Tie, Chen Dao, Han Zong, Lou Ban and others around him were so happy, Liu Tong's head was buzzing for most of the day, thinking, these guys have been following him since he got up early in the morning, why are they full of energy, and he is tired.

Liu's mansion is noisy, people come and go, and it seems to be very chaotic, but the people in charge are orderly, and everything is smooth.

When night comes, Luoyang City is brilliantly lit, gongs and drums are noisy, and it is very lively.

Under the auspices of Tian Feng, the wedding entered a climax. In the hall full of guests and friends, first of all, the newcomers were separated on both sides of the ceremony, and only Tian Feng said loudly: "Shaohua and beautiful women, beautiful women, on the occasion of the newlyweds, the banquet and friends gathered, congratulations to the new luan." The auspicious time has arrived, so please let the bridegroom enter. ”

Liu Tong walked in under the support of Chen Zhi and Han Zong. At this time, the wedding ceremony began, and I heard Tian Feng's slightly sharp voice chanting loudly: "In the past, Hongmeng was opened up, and yin and yang were materialized." All things are raised, and only people are primates. The love of children is long, and the book ceremony is spread. Today, I will get married as a gift, and I will see the letter in the guest. Eat together and drink together. Heaven and earth are the witnesses, and the sun and the moon are the names...... For the sake of your hair, especially for praise! ”

A two-hundred-word ode to Liu Tong sounds particularly lengthy. Liu Tong thanked Chen Zhi under Chen Zhi's reminder, and Tian Feng returned the salute. Tian Feng began to invite the bride into the hall again, Liu Tong waved to Long Duan'er of the phoenix crown and Xiawei, invited her to enter the door, and Duan'er came to the front of the main hall.

Han Zong took the red scarf and let the two newcomers lead him and slowly came to the stage. Tian Feng announced the Wo ceremony, the bride and groom sat on the Taichung futon, the upstairs came over with a wash basin covered with a red scarf, Xiahou Juan stepped forward to lift the red scarf, Tian Feng shouted: "Please water the groom and wash." Long Duan'er took the wash basin and watered and washed for the new son-in-law, and then Liu Tong took the wash basin and watered the bride.

After that, there are cumbersome prison rituals, joint rituals, chapel rituals, and knot ceremony......

Xiahou Juan and Chen Zhi each cut a strand of hair for Long Duaner and Liu Tong, and placed it in a concentric lock, and Tian Feng announced that the hair ceremony was completed.

Liu Tong was like a puppet, letting them command and fiddle, thinking that it should be over soon, but he didn't have much hope, because there was still a wine banquet, and then there was a haunted room, looking at Liu Shen, Wu Ji, and Dian Man on the side, he was a little worried, and he had the determination to be drunk and ravaged today.
