There were many people watching the ceremony on the spot, not only the generals above the head of the Wei Yan forces, the officials above the pavilion chief, but also the guests from Liu Biao, Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao, and even Liu Bei in Xuzhou also sent people to pay tribute.
Liu Biao sent Yi nationality, more than a dozen family figures in the hinterland of Jingzhou who wanted to have a good relationship with Wei Yan, and several families such as the Pang family, who were good friends with the Huang family, all sent people to pay tribute, including Liu Biao, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun's family.
In order to prevent Liu Biao and Cai Mao from making trouble in the wedding, Zhang Yun did not hand it over to Liu Biao's people now, and waited for Liu Biao to hand over his second son Liu Cong, the Zhang family's 100,000 stone grain, and 5,000 craftsmen before handing over Zhang Yun and 5,000 Jingzhou troops to Liu Biao.
Zhang Xiu's strategist Jia Xu, some generals in Zhang Xiu's army, and some family figures in Nanyang County also came to watch the ceremony.
Cao Cao sent Han Hao, which was at Wei Yan's request, because Wei Yan wanted Shi Tao and other Tuntian officials under his command to ask Han Hao for the rules and tricks of Tuntian management.
In addition to bringing the Shadow Horse this time, Han Hao also had Cao Cao's youngest son Cao Zhi, the king of Chen Si in that life.
At that time, Cao Cao did not agree to hand over Cao Zhi to Wei Yan in exchange for Cao Hong at first, after all, it was suspected of being a proton, which made the world laugh, and Cao Cao also wanted to welcome back the Son of Heaven and set out to defeat Wei Yan.
But when he heard Xiahou Yuan's words, he stroked his hair and laughed, "Wen Changye, the one who knows me", and happily sent Cao Zhi here, but he declared to the outside world that "let Cao Zhibai learn poetry under Wei Wenchangmen", at this time, Wei Yan was famous all over the world for poems such as "Artemisia Lixing", "Compassion for Nong", "Wandering Ziyin", "Silkworm Woman", Cao Cao asked Cao Zhibai to learn poetry under Wei Yanmen, which made people really unable to find fault.
At this time, five-year-old Cao Zhi, wearing a red robe, holding flowers in his hand, is a good image of a flower girl, except for Wei Yan, no one can connect him with the Chen Liuwang who wrote "Seven Steps Poem", "White Horse Chapter" and "Luo Shen Fu" in history.
Then Cao Cao and his advisers Xun Yu and Guo Jia agreed that no one could resist Liu Biao when they defeated Wei Yan, in case Liu Biao suddenly went north when he was fighting in the east and west, and Xu Du was in danger, so they decided to win over Wei Yan to deal with Liu Biao.
Cao Cao has now welcomed Liu Xie, the Son of Heaven, and asked the Son of Heaven to make Wei Yan the general of Annam.
Wei Yan was extremely allergic to the word "Annan", because it was the name of a certain monkey country before it was canonized by Emperor Qianlong, so he refused to accept it, and Cao Cao had to ask the Son of Heaven to crown Wei Yan as the general of Pingnan.
According to the Han system, the first-level generals are the generals, the Wei generals, the chariot generals, and the hussar generals, all of whom are more than the three dukes, and the second-level generals are the former generals, the rear generals, the left generals, and the right generals, and the third-level generals are the four generals, the four town generals, the Siping generals, and the Si'an generals, and the third-level generals are miscellaneous generals.
Originally, Cao Cao only wanted to ask the Son of Heaven to seal Wei Yan as a rebellious general or something like a miscellaneous general, but it was Xun Yu who proposed the plan of "driving the tiger and devouring the wolf" and named Wei Yan as the general of Pingnan, so that he and Liu Biao of Jingzhou would crusade against each other and kill each other.
At this time, in addition to Jingzhou Mu, Liu Biao was also the general of Zhennan, nominally the general of Zhennan supervised the military of Jingzhou and Yuzhou, and General Pingnan was also in charge of the military of Jingzhou and Yuzhou.
Because Wei Yan is now a general of Pingnan, the etiquette of the general's wife who was rewarded by the imperial court to Huang Yueying is not as prominent as that of the lady after the Tang and Song dynasties, but it is not much different.
In addition to Cao Zhi, Cao Hong's family sent a thousand good horses and 100,000 stones of grain and grass in exchange for Cao Hong.
In addition, Han Hao also brought 5,000 craftsmen in exchange for 5,000 Cao army prisoners.
Now Cao Cao has not let Liu Bei go to crusade against Yuan Shu, and Lu Bu has not taken the opportunity to attack Xuzhou, so Liu Bei is still the assassin of Xuzhou, so he sent Chen Qun to come with gifts.
Chen Qun was not under Cao Cao from the beginning, but only returned to Cao Cao after Cao Cao defeated LΓΌ Bu in 198.
The reason why Liu Bei sent Chen Qun as a gift was very simple, Liu Bei could feel that Cao Cao would sweep Xuzhou sooner or later, so he wanted to befriend Wei Yan to resist Cao Cao.
But Liu Bei never expected that it was Lu Bu, who he kindly took in, who made him step down shortly thereafter.
Although Wei Yan did not have any interest in uniting Liu Bei now, he did not rule out uniting with Liu Bei in the future, so he also hospitably entertained Chen Qun.
Holding Huang Yueying's little hand, Wei Yanneng could feel that she was very nervous because she was trembling all the time.
Not only because there are thousands of people on the scene, but also because these people all show strange eyes after seeing the bride, this bride is so ugly!
The mainstream aesthetics of this era are like this, you can see from the historical records that once you say that someone is a Hu person or has Hu characteristics, you must say that you are ugly, of course, when you reach a certain status, you will always say some good things when you record it, such as Sun Quan's blue eyes and purple hair, he will say that he has a vision and looks good.
Most of the people at the scene had never seen Huang Yueying before, and they had rarely seen a woman with such a look before, and when they suddenly saw the blonde woman with blue eyes, they felt weird and ugly, although no one would say it, but their eyes were all revealed.
Huang Yueying had always been very confident before, but now she suddenly felt ashamed in her heart, feeling that she was not worthy of the heroic Wei Yan, and felt that she had embarrassed Wei Yan, and tears rolled in her eyes.
At this time, Huang Yueying suddenly felt that Wei Yan's big hand was clenched tighter, and there was firm strength in his hand, and although she didn't dare to look at it, she could also feel the amazing and affectionate gaze coming from his eyes.
Huang Yueying suddenly felt settled, and her heart seemed to bloom, even if everyone in the world thought I was ugly, so what, as long as my husband thought I looked like a fairy, it would be good! Because I only show him beauty!
A bright smile reappeared on her face, and the look of surprise in Wei Yan's eyes was even stronger.
At this time, the salute official Wang Cang sang the salute: the salute of the table!
Wei Yan and Huang Yueying sat on the mats in opposite positions of their respective cases.
Praise the official Wang Cang sang the salute: the gift of the wo!
The master of ceremonies Hu Ji brought a basin of water and a towel to the groom Wei Yan and the bride Huang Yueying in turn, Wei Yan and Huang Yueying bowed to Hu Ji, Hu Ji returned the salute with his chin, and Wei Yan and Huang Yueying cleaned their hands.
Praise the official Wang Cang sang the salute: the gift of knotting the hair!
The guest of honor Li Yan and the master of ceremonies Hu Ji stepped forward, the groom Wei Yan and the bride Huang Yueying saluted the two, and the two bowed back, Li Yan cut off a strand of hair on Wei Yan and Huang Yueying's heads, tied them together with a red thread, put them in the brocade bag, and handed them to Hu Ji to put away.
Wang Cang, the salutation official, recited: "Nong not only cuts the cloud sideburns, but also divides the hair." Look for no one's place and make concentric knots. β
The newlyweds tie their knots, and they will never be united forever.
When the etiquette reached this point, Wei Yan breathed a sigh of relief, it should be about to be a cave room.
Looking at Huang Yueying, who looked better than the American princess Ivanka in later generations, Wei Yan felt that his heart began to ripple.
