Chapter 402: The Eve of the Big Wedding
Although it is said that his wedding will not take place in five days, Sun Yang has already begun to prepare another important etiquette now!
That's right, before getting married, Sun Yang has to perform a ritual that he can't escape - the crown ceremony!
Zhou men are twenty and crowned, and then they are considered adults, but it is popular until now, and the age regulations are already a chicken rib, don't you see King Zhou Wen being crowned at the age of twelve, and becoming a king at the age of fifteen? Don't talk about it, let's just say Guo Jia, in order to get him married, he also held a crown ceremony in advance, and now it is Sun Yang's turn.
In fact, as early as when Sun Yang had just taken over Jiangdong, someone proposed to let Sun Yang hold the crown ceremony as soon as possible, so that he could be in charge of Jiangdong justifiably, but Sun Yang refused, because he originally wanted to pass the crown to let his father take the words, but his father had already passed away, and it could only be presided over by other elders, and Sun Yang thought about it and decided that the ceremony of his crown was going to be handed over to Xun Yu to preside!
Of course, Sun Yang's proposal, Xun Yu is naturally extremely willing, because this is not only the most important etiquette in Sun Yang's life, but also a thing that Xun Yu has a light on his face, after all, Sun Yang is the first batch of marquis with real power in these years, and in a sense, this is also an honor for him.
During this time, Xun Yu continued to understand the various situations in Jiangdong, and at the same time, he also tried his best to come up with a good word for Sun Yang, after all, in this era, the table word is used more often than the name!
In fact, Sun Yang also thought about what words he should take, but he couldn't think of a good one, he couldn't directly steal his third brother's future word Zhongmou, not to mention that Zhongmou didn't match his name, he himself couldn't accept this bad taste! But fortunately, Xun Yu didn't cover it, and he also came up with a table for him that he could accept.
Mingsheng! Xun Yu came up with the word for Sun Yang is Mingsheng, which fits Sun Yang's Yangzi, and Ming is in line with the rules of taking words.
After everything was ready, Sun Yang's coming-of-age ceremony was also held as scheduled, in this ceremony Sun Yang didn't want to be too public, but he was not an ordinary man after all, his every move was already closely related to Jiangdong, so this coming-of-age ceremony Sun Yang couldn't keep a low profile!
In addition to the patriarchs and elders of their Sun family, some of Jiangdong's respected seniors, some Jiangdong officials and Li Ru and others were also invited over to witness this most important moment for men!
Worship the heavens and ancestors, the details of the ceremony are also extremely numerous, there is no way, Sun Yang can only endure to participate in the whole process, and when he finishes this coming-of-age ceremony, the time is not early, so Sun Yang also set up a banquet and entertained the guests, but it was not too much fanfare, after all, his wedding is the highlight!
After everything was processed, Sun Yang was also very tired, so he directly returned to his home, which was already full of red lanterns and red happy characters, and fell asleep deeply.
Sun Yang slept peacefully, but some people couldn't sleep, such as Guo Jia, he has been highly vigilant these times, Sun Yang's wedding is a good thing for them Jiangdong to celebrate, but for those who have enemies with them, I'm afraid they are waiting to see the jokes, take the opportunity to do some sabotage!
During this period of time, Guo Jia implemented a curfew in Wu County, and also caught many suspicious people through the powerful intelligence network of the secret guard, but Guo Jia did not dare to relax at all, because until now he has not gotten a trace of the mysterious person he fears the most! Maybe that group of mysterious people didn't sneak into Jiangdong, but they weren't afraid of 10,000, just in case, if those mysterious people really got in, with their elusive methods, it would be really dangerous at that time!
What to do? Guo Jia is very bottomless now, he has done everything he can, he can only secretly pray in his heart that the group of mysterious people did not mix into Wu County......
However, Guo Jia's worries are probably going to come to naught, although Liu Biao also thought about using that group of mysterious people to take Sun Yang's life, but that group of mysterious people is not his subordinates, and they are only cooperative relations, and it can even be said that Liu Biao is still a passive party to cooperation, plus the mysterious people have also clearly refused to do anything to assassinate, so Liu Biao will not do it this time.
Although Jiangdong and Jingzhou have formed an irresolvable hatred, on the occasion of Sun Yang's wedding, Liu Biao still sent a messenger and sent Sun Yang a large gift, after all, on the surface they are both princes of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Biao has nothing to say.
As Sun Yang's wedding approached, the envoys of the princes from all over the country also began to arrive in Wu County one after another, and for the same reason above, whether they had a grudge against Jiangdong or not, they still had to do a superficial effort when they had not completely torn their faces.
Of course, Sun Yang also took the time to meet with the envoys of several princes, among which the most exchanged was Cao Cao's envoy, Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang, who was commensurate with Sun Yang's brothers!
Cao Ang's first visit to Jiangdong this time is naturally to congratulate Sun Yang on behalf of their Cao family, but other purposes still exist, although they have formed an alliance as early as under the Tiger Prison, but it is only an agreement between Cao Cao and Sun Jian, now that Sun Jian has passed away, their biggest connection with Jiangdong has been broken, and Cao Cao's purpose in sending Cao Ang is naturally to establish contact with Sun Yang again!
Cao Ang's intention, Sun Yang naturally understood, for the secret alliance with Cao Cao, this was actually promoted by Sun Yang, and now that Cao Ang is here, Sun Yang still clearly expressed his attitude to him, their Sun family's Jiangdong and Cao Cao are a united front!
In fact, Sun Yang had thought a long time ago that even if they were now separated from Cao Cao by 108,000 miles, Cao Cao was a huge potential stock after all, and being able to form an alliance with Cao Cao would not only make Jiangdong face a lot less pressure in the north, but more importantly, Cao Cao's power was now much weaker than in history, and he could occupy the absolute initiative by cooperating with Cao Cao!
In the last aspect, Sun Yang is a person who thinks about his kindness, Cao Cao used to be kind to him, even though Cao Cao may be the biggest obstacle on his imperial road, but Sun Yang still chose to support Cao Cao!
After getting Sun Yang's assurance, Cao Ang was naturally extremely satisfied, and he didn't bother Sun Yang too much anymore, and left.
After Cao Ang, Sun Yang met Yuan Shu's messenger again, this person was their old acquaintance, Li Feng, the number one strategist under Yuan Shu! Li Feng took the initiative to come to Jiangdong to talk this time, and naturally he had a mind of making meritorious contributions, after all, last time was the closest they had to get the jade seal, but it was destroyed by his momentary cleverness!
But now Sun Yang didn't have the heart to talk to Li Feng about the jade seal, and he still planned to wait until after the wedding to talk to Li Feng......
