Chapter 302: When the Big Wedding is in Progress
Ye Chen's big wedding not only had a reaction from the people of Liaodong, but also from many forces.
Needless to say, those families who are good friends with the Ye family have huge interests, and some people who are optimistic about the Ye family or are ready to cooperate with the Ye family have also taken action.
The Ye family's business is really too big now, and Du Kang wine has been sold to almost the entire Han Dynasty, forming a huge interest group with the Ye family, and the Ye family has also accumulated a huge interest group by selling a large number of furs to the south.
In addition to other businesses, especially Qianzhuang, Qianzhuang later made efforts and began to show scale effects, attracted by Qianzhuang, and thus cooperated with more and more families.
It can be said that the Ye family's influence in the surrounding areas of Youzhou and the eastern coastal areas has been very large, and the four major commercial families may not have lived up to their names before, but now they are not weak to other families.
For a while, after the news of Ye Chen's wedding came out, all parties were preparing for it.
"Lord, there are a lot of spies lurking in Liaodong now, do you want to clean them up?" Liu Qi has not been easy recently, and as Ye Chen's wedding is approaching, many forces have also moved.
"Find out their identities first, different forces use different methods, there are still about twenty days before the wedding, give you ten days to figure out their identities, and then prepare to do it."
Ye Chen's eyes emitted a cold light, he got married, how could he allow others to destroy it, if he dared to get along with himself, Ye Chen would definitely not be able to get along with them first.
As the time of the big wedding approached, representatives of various forces arrived one after another, most of them did not need Ye Chen to receive them, and a small number of those who needed Ye Chen's reception also arranged to stay first.
"What did you say, the Wei family also sent someone here, and they also brought a generous gift." Ye Chen asked Wang Tianzhu and Liu Qi, who had to report every day.
"Yes, they'll be there in two days."
Ye Chen was very surprised, he didn't expect the Wei family to send someone and bring a gift, which made Ye Chen very surprised? Do you want to reconcile? Thinking about it, it is absolutely impossible, it is impossible for the Wei family to bow to the Ye family, this is the pride of the family for hundreds of years, and it is also the result of the deep hatred and resentment between the two sides.
Visitors arrived one after another, some were invited, some were not invited, all of them were guests, and they were warmly welcomed when they arrived in Yejiabao.
A few days ago, against the enemy spies, Ye Chen and they arrested more than 100 people, and they were all sent to Shenyang to participate in labor, but this labor is the construction of the city.
A few days before the wedding, Ye Chen began to be busy, very busy, busy receiving guests and dealing with enemies.
"Still haven't decided who is from the Wei family?" Ye Chen asked Liu Qi.
"My lord, it is difficult to find out who the other party is if they are not alarmed, that person sits in the carriage all the way, and when he rests at night, he also lives in some families or houses along the road, and he covers his head when he enters and exits the carriage." Liu Qi replied.
"Then let them go, they won't be able to do anything." Of course, Ye Chen could choose to conduct a mandatory inspection, but that would be undignified, and besides, people came to celebrate his wedding.
"Yes, my lord, the head of the Mi family in Xuzhou and the head of the Zhen family in Jizhou have arrived, and they are currently arranged to live in Yejiabao, you see what you have to order."
"No, there is no need to worry about their safety in Yejiabao, you can strengthen the identification of the people who enter Yejiabao."
"Yes, my lord."
In fact, the two heads of the family are here, how can there be no other arrangements, it's just that it is not a matter that the intelligence agency should be in charge of, and of course Ye Chen will not tell him more.
"Is there anyone else in particular to be concerned about?"
"We sent out invitations, most of them arrived one after another, and some of them couldn't arrive in person and sent representatives. It should be noted that the palace also sent people, and the intention is unknown. There is also the Jingxiang area, where a team of more than a dozen families arrived together, and we did not send them an invitation. ”
"Jingxiang Group? Interesting. Ye Chen said to himself.
The Ye family in Jingxiang has business, mainly Du Kang wine and furs from the north, but the fur Ye family is not directly transported to the Jingxiang area to sell, but sold to the big merchants in Xuzhou, and they sell it to these areas, after all, the Ye family has no channels in these places, and the cost is too high to sell to these places, and the personnel have to increase too much.
Therefore, the Ye family has always had only an indirect relationship with the Jingxiang region, and rarely had a direct relationship, and now they not only came, but also came in a group, which made Ye Chen not surprised.
In the end, Ye Chen instructed Liu Qi to increase the identification of suspicious characters, control the suspicious characters whose identities were not clear, and patrol the free guard battalion in Yejiabao back and forth.
There were many people who came this time beyond Ye Chen's expectations, many people who had relationships and those who didn't have to do came to Liaodong to congratulate him, and unconsciously, Ye Chen had such a big influence.
The wedding was held as scheduled, and the whole Liaodong was very lively, Cai Yong, Cai Yan and others first lived in a house in Xiangping City, and Ye Chen invited Zheng Xuan to be the officiant.
Ye Chen sat on a white horse, the white horse was tied with a big red flower, Ye Chen was also wearing a big red robe, a team of guards was wearing festive clothes to guard on both sides, and Ye Chen's rear half of the horse was his two sworn brothers, Tai Shi Ci and Zhao Yun. Naturally, there must be a sedan chair behind the three of them.
This is the core of the whole team, and the front and both sides of the team are blowing and playing musicians, the team is not huge, but the core is an elite iron and blood division, not only full of momentum, but also the team is neat and beautiful.
Although the greeting team is small, the "team" behind and on both sides is not small, those are the people who came to watch the ceremony nearby, and many people arrived early to wait outside Yejiabao.
This put a lot of pressure on Guo Jia, who was in charge of security, and not only used most of the guard battalions, but also recruited a lot of militia and asked them to constantly patrol around Xiangping to Yejiabao.
When the people saw Ye Chen's welcoming procession, they cheered on both sides, giving them a stable life and saving their lives.
Most of them came spontaneously, and after the team set off, many of them followed behind the greeting team, as if they wanted to cheer Ye Chen and go to greet the relatives together. The escort battalion at the back had to separate them, so that the people's team and the team to welcome relatives were more than ten meters away, otherwise it would be easy to cause chaos.
And the militia is also very hard, having to go back and forth to maintain order in the ranks of the people. When Ye Chen and his team arrived outside Xiangping City, the soldiers on the city wall looked down and couldn't see the end of the people's ranks, and the team actually lined up outside Yejiabao.
And a group of people gathered in the city to watch the excitement, and the people who followed behind had no choice but to block them out of the city, otherwise they would definitely go into chaos if they all entered the city at once.
