Lord Yuan

Chapter 123 Yuan Shao’s wedding, Yan Liang comes to surrender

This sentence came out suddenly.

Yuan Shao's whole body instantly became confused and a little lost.

He seemed to have already expected these things, and he giggled for a long time before speaking slowly.

"Teacher, do you think I can marry Wan'er in my current position?"

Li Ying did not hesitate and nodded solemnly: "I have long remembered your marriage to Wan'er. Although I am a little reluctant to give up as a teacher, Wan'er belongs to my heart after all. As a father, I can't stop it too much. .”

"It's you, when do you plan to marry Wan'er?"

Regarding this topic, Yuan Shao actually chooses to escape many times. In his opinion, now he has no capital at all and no ability to make Li Waner happy. He will soon go to Liaodong to guard the border. When His return was still unknown, and he would not tolerate it under any circumstances if Li Waner was asked to follow him to Liaodong.

Li Ying seemed to have noticed Yuan Shao's inner concerns, and looked at each other with a smile, showing a considerate attitude.

"It won't be too late for you two to leave after your wedding. As for Wan'er, even if she continues to stay here as a teacher, she can still afford to raise her a daughter as a teacher."

Yuan Shao looked at the teacher excitedly. He did not expect that his teacher would have such a tolerant attitude.

"Don't worry, you. As long as you can support your own career in Liaodong with peace of mind, Wan'er will follow you, and I won't be too worried as a teacher."

"It's just that marriage requires the words of parents and matchmakers. My parents have passed away, so what should I do?" Li Ying seemed to be worried. He understood Yuan Shao's innermost thoughts and would naturally give Yuan Shao what he could. The greatest help given.

Yuan Shao shook his head helplessly and told the secret about his life experience.

After the words fell, even someone like Li Ying who had seen the big world could not help but show a look of surprise, and immediately felt a sense of regret.

"If I say that my marriage to Wan'er will be on leave, my uncle will definitely be overjoyed. He will not give me any resistance in this matter." Yuan Shao is always called uncle outside, without exception.

When Yuan Shao announced his intention to marry the daughter of his teacher Li Ying, Yuan Feng immediately stood up excitedly after receiving the news, and agreed to the matter with a wave of his hand. He already felt guilty and didn't know how to make up for it. Yuan Shao immediately seized this hard-won opportunity.

Moreover, Li Ying was also a very good person, and Yuan Feng knew a lot about him.

Yuan Feng wrote to the emperor, stating his intention to go to Yingchuan and make friends with Li Ying in the Qin and Jin Dynasties.

When Liu Hong heard this, his face was delighted. He had always had an unexplainable feeling about Yuan Shao. Now that he heard that he was getting married, he immediately summoned Cao Jie to discuss with him.

It happened that Cao Jie also wanted to unite with the big family, and the Yuan family was a giant among the family, so why not do it.

He had just learned that Yuan Shao actually came from the Yuan family in Runan. He was a humble person and almost deceived them all. Fortunately, Yuan Shao no longer posed any threat. Li Ying also wisely resigned and chose to return home.

In Cao Jie's opinion, the situation was very good, so he agreed with Emperor Liu Hong's opinion.

Cao Jie is not a good person. He will not let down his guard simply because Yuan Shao poses no threat to him now. He will do this purely because Yuan Shao is relying on the banner of the Yuan family.

In his opinion, exchanging a free favor for the favor of a noble family is a business that is sure to make a profit without losing any money.

When Yuan Feng learned about it, he immediately understood the reason why Cao Jie acted like this.

Although he didn't want to get involved too much with the eunuchs, due to the increasing power of the eunuchs, even the Yuan family had to temporarily avoid the spotlight. In addition, Yuan Wei would have contact with the palace from time to time. After thinking about it, Yuan Feng might as well borrow it. This is an opportunity to gain support from the eunuchs in a way that is not too over the top and to strengthen oneself at the same time.

Cao Jie and Yuan Feng both have their own little plans.

This news soon reached the ears of Yuan Shao's uncle Yuan Wei. He had always been very fond of Yuan Shao, so naturally he couldn't let it go. He simply used Yuan Feng's letter to return home to arrange matters and also wrote to Liu Hong to ask for his return. .

Liu Hong and Cao Jie are naturally happy to see the results.

soon.

Yuan Shao's wedding day came one after another.

All places in Runan that were close to the Yuan family were decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations and were very lively. Many people from the border states took this opportunity to come to pay their respects.

A two-part marriage naturally requires a matchmaker as a guarantee, and Yuan Shao comes from the Yuan family in Runan, and Li Waner is the daughter of Li Ying.

The family's power is naturally extremely prominent, but the identity of this matchmaker is extremely difficult to choose.

Until Yuan Wei's return, he who never liked to get involved in such things rarely proposed that he should be the matchmaker and help Li Ying achieve the good of Qin and Jin.

In fact, considering Yuan Wei's status, he has been in a high position for a long time, and he is Yuan Shao's uncle. Furthermore, his father-in-law is Ma Rong, a famous scholar at home and abroad. He cannot be the matchmaker in any case.

But his words were decisive, his tone was critical, and his posture, which showed that he would fight anyone who didn't want him, was no longer as steady as when he went to court.

Of course Yuan Feng understood why, and he was very grateful that his younger brother could support Yuan Shao at this critical moment.

With a matchmaker, you need to prepare gifts and many things when you come to your door.

After everything was ready, Yuan Wei happily acted as a matchmaker, traveling between Yingchuan and Runan.

Yuan Wei personally held the engagement letter and handed it over to the woman.

The etiquette letter and the welcome letter are all properly arranged.

Li Ying also didn't expect that the person attending the matchmaking meeting this time would be Yuan Wei, the ninth minister of the dynasty.

He hurriedly went out to greet him, and Yuan Wei smiled and said to Li Ying, "I never thought that now I would be married to Yuan Li."

Li Ying also responded with a smile, feeling very pleased that Yuan Shao was so valued.

A few days have passed since the process of receiving the lottery, asking for the name, and accepting the name, etc. Now Yuan Shao needs to rush to Liaodong as soon as possible to take up a post, and the process during this period has also been advanced in time.

During this period, Yuan Feng also came to see Li Ying in person, in the name of both parents.

The Yuan Mansion was now in full bloom and very lively.

There was an endless stream of people coming to send gifts and congratulations, and even Yuan Shu, who was accustomed to the world, couldn't help but be speechless at this time.

Among them were many high-ranking officials, Jiuqing. As far as he knew, there were several people of the same rank as his father who came to congratulate Yuan Shao on his wedding as representatives. Yuan Shu suddenly felt a surge of sadness in his heart. It was necessary for a bastard to do this. Is it so grand?

Yuan Shu was puzzled, but he did not dare to speak out again, expressing his anger as a domestic slave.

Just because Yuan Feng and Yuan Wei had already greeted him beforehand, this time Yuan Shao's wedding was arranged by the Yuan family, and he had to do it decently. If he dared to show the evil behavior of brother and brother at this juncture, , there is no such humble attitude as a brother from a famous family, so he must let Yuan Shu understand what Zhen's true family tradition is.

This is related to Yuan's face, and there is no room for carelessness.

These big shots often do not come in person. After all, the identity they represent is actually no different from Yuan Feng and Yuan Wei. It is only because of the prestige of the Yuan family that they choose to send their own representatives.

Yuan Shu stood guard at the door, acting as a welcome person. This was also specially instructed by Yuan Wei.

The purpose is to sharpen his spirit and his arrogant attitude.

Yuan Feng didn't say much about this. Yuan Shu did go too far sometimes, but Yuan Shu was afraid of Yuan Wei's sharp attack.

From the wedding day.

Compared with the previous warm-up session, it was already far beyond the previous warm-up session. Even the door of the mansion was already full of people. The crowd was so loud that the words of the people next to them could not be heard clearly.

And when the emperor who was far away in Luoyang specially sent an envoy and issued an imperial edict to congratulate Yuan Shao on his wedding.

The already lively scene in Yuan Mansion suddenly turned silent, with everyone staring dumbfounded at the angel who came from afar.

No matter how much anyone thought about it, they would never have imagined that a descendant of the Yuan family, with no qualifications at all, could win the emperor's favor on the wedding day and specifically issue an imperial edict.

As Angel was welcomed into the mansion by Yuan Feng and other guests, Yuan's mansion once again erupted into extremely lively sounds.

What is being discussed is that Yuan Shao's wedding was able to alarm His Majesty the Emperor. The shock in his heart is self-evident.

In fact, even Yuan Feng himself did not expect that the emperor did not say anything clearly at the time, and Cao Jie on the side just smiled and nodded in agreement, and never said that he would issue an imperial edict.

Yuan Feng and Yuan Wei looked at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

Fortunately, the arrival of angels made the scene more lively, and they didn't think much about it. After all, the guests were far from finished and they still needed to go to the house to greet them.

The Xu family of Nanyang, the Xun family of Yingchuan, and the Zhong family also came one after another.The Yan family in Jizhou also traveled thousands of miles away and sent envoys to congratulate Yuan Shao on his wedding.

The Yan family is not a prominent family in Jizhou, but a powerful force in one county of Jizhou.

When Yan Liang was practicing martial arts in the clan without slackening, his servants presented him with a letter.

Although Yan Liang studied martial arts, he did not give up on reading and writing. However, compared to those Confucian masters who chewed on words, he simply recognized these words. For him, only the big sword in his hand was enough to stand up. Book.

The letter was sent by Yuan Shao.

Yan Liang looked at the content above and was deeply moved.

He originally loved to pursue fame and fortune, and he just suffered from the lack of opportunity for a while. Even though the Yan family was powerful in the local area, it was only a county, and the resources at its disposal could only allow him to join the county government. Any small official, this is not what he wants.

When this letter from Yuan Shao arrived, Yan Liang didn't know how his reputation became known to this famous Yuan family's descendants, and he didn't really want to know. He just wanted to meet this legendary figure as soon as possible. A model for the world.

Yes, the reputation that Yuan Shao had when he was in Luoyang has gradually spread to the surrounding areas. Even the local scholars in Jizhou admire Yuan Shao's actions, and Yan Liang is no exception.

He was eager to make a name for himself with Yuan Shao, who could tell at a glance that he was not mediocre. When he told his father the news.

My father, who used to be extremely strict, now rarely showed the angry attitude he had in the past.

He looked at his son Yan Liang. He was taller than his peers. He could wield a heavy knife with both hands. He did not stop Yan Liang's love of force. In his opinion, it was not necessary to practice martial arts for self-defense. He just learned it in his spare time. The scriptures are also a wonderful thing.

However, Yan Liang was not that talented and chose to study martial arts wholeheartedly.

"The Yuan family is a famous family in the world, not comparable to my Yan family. Now they have a master who can call you to help. You are not famous now, but you are called by his kind words. This shows his heart. If you want to go, you will not be a father." Stop you."

Yan Liang was very happy.

"But don't think that this trip is in your hometown. The Yuan family has many rules, and because of its prominent status, the people who come to visit may be like crucian carp crossing the river. You must be careful and don't offend others." Yan's father Duojia Admonished.

Yan Liang only heard that his father agreed to go, and he had already forgotten the rest of the words in his excitement.

Prepare gifts, and it coincides with Yuan Shao's wedding, so Yan's father naturally needs to be extremely well prepared to avoid being looked down upon.

Yan Liang personally led a convoy to Runan, Yuzhou to meet Yuan Shao.

It is inevitable to encounter thieves, rats, and thieves on the way, and they are naturally unwilling to let go of a convoy with a lot of property.

However, when facing Yan Liang, who was young, strong and very brave, he turned into a pile of corpses. Yan Liang alone had killed more than a dozen bandits, including several small bosses. , the blood stains on his body could not be cleaned for a while.

Seeing this, Yan Liang simply put on his bloody clothes and went on his way.

Entering the border of Yuzhou, there were relatively few thieves. Faced with Yan Liang, who was obviously imposing, he chose to give it a cold look.

So, when Yan Liang went to Yuan Mansion non-stop, even after he stated his intention, he was still scolded by Yuan Shu who was guarding the door and did not dare to relax at all.

"You are so filthy. My brother is getting married today. How can I see you in such a bloody state? Get out of here, get out of here." Yuan Shu frowned coldly and shouted angrily without any politeness.

If he let such people in, he didn't know how his father and uncle would punish him. Although he wanted this reckless man who didn't understand the rules to interfere with Yuan Shao's happy event, it was obvious that if he really did this, his own good would be at stake. The days are coming to an end.

Yan Liang had an indignant look on his face. He had worked so hard and killed many thieves, but he didn't even bother to change his clothes. How could he be treated like this?

At this time, another guest suddenly came behind him.

Yuan Shu opened his eyes and raised his eyebrows, but it was Cao Cao who came with many gifts and a smile on his face.

He put on what he thought was the kindest posture, "We haven't seen each other for many days, but Meng De has become so strong." Yuan Shu suddenly discovered that Cao Ren, who used to look childish next to Cao Cao, was extremely restrained at this time. The attitude of the past when he was a flying eagle and a lackey was completely gone, which made me feel very strange.

But when he saw Yan Liang standing not far away, still covered in blood and unwilling to leave, he said angrily: "Get out of there."

Although Cao Cao was a little strange, today was Yuan Shao's happy day, so he shouldn't be so negligent. He took a few steps forward and took a look at this man.

He had big eyebrows and a strong body. The lingering smell of blood almost made Cao Cao a little bit too much. He took a few steps back before admonishing: "Today is the wedding day of the Yuan family. This gesture is not a congratulation." Giving a gift is more like seeking revenge. If you listen to me, it is better to rush to the street as soon as possible and find a clothing store to change clothes."

Yan Liang frowned when he heard this, but when he saw the guard at the door chattering non-stop, he suddenly remembered what his father said, and Yan Liang's head tightened, and he almost missed something important due to his recklessness.

Seeing the kind words of the person in front of him, Yan Liang, who was covered in blood, tried his best to make a kind gesture, then thanked him and asked his companions to wait here quietly while he went.

Cao Cao smiled and nodded, then turned around.

"It's about the highway. Since I was appointed as the general of the Tiger Guard, my spirit has definitely changed. Compared with the knight-errant demeanor of the past, it is even more so." Cao Cao presented the list of gifts, thanked him and walked straight in. .

There were four or five cartloads of property. Even Yuan Shu cursed secretly when he saw it, "corrupt officials."

It was half a moment before Yan Liang finished processing.

After returning here, he saw that Yuan Shu still had an angry attitude. He pretended not to notice it. Today he came to congratulate Yuan Shao on his wedding, and at the same time, he came to rely on Yuan Shao for a bright future. He had nothing to tangle with the first guard. .

Yuan Shu saw the names on the gift list.

"Jizhou Yan family, Yan Liang." He smiled disdainfully.

never heard of that.

Yan Liang entered the mansion smoothly.

Yuan Shao still doesn't know everything that's happening outside. As the protagonist now, he must make all preparations before he can appear.

Soon, guests came in an endless stream.

Everyone inside and outside the Yuan Mansion was already full.

Yuan Feng took advantage of the situation and began the wedding process.

. . .

After these processes are completed.

It was already late at night.

Yuan Shao and Li Waner, who were dressed in red and festive, were sent into the bridal chamber.

This was his first time meeting Li Waner in this way.

Recalling every detail of the past, a warm current suddenly passed through his heart.

Looking at the silent wife in front of him, whose face could not be seen under the curtain, Yuan Shao still felt as nervous as when he first became a husband.

In one hand, he was holding the scale used to lift the red cover of his wife. He was very nervous and his hands were trembling. He was obviously very close, but he still couldn't calm down.

He sighed, and was about to leave for Liaodong. When he thought of this, he just felt sorry for the beautiful woman in front of him.

However, Li Waner tried her best to suppress the throbbing in her heart under the hijab, and said in a trembling voice: "Are you afraid that you will miss me?"

Yuan Shao once told Li Waner the news that he would leave here soon and go to the border to take up a post. He did not want to hide anything. As a husband and wife, we should treat each other honestly, although we could not treat each other like guests. , but at least he must fulfill his obligations and responsibilities as a husband.

"Yes, it's been an eternity since we first met Wan'er. I regret having to say goodbye again." Yuan Shao replied generously.

Li Waner smiled when she heard this. Such a frank man was the person she wanted to meet.

She did not regret meeting Yuan Shao.

"My husband has great ambitions and cannot be disturbed by anyone or anything. Now that I am your husband, I will naturally listen to him."

When Yuan Shao heard this, he was deeply moved. He didn't say anything for a long time. He just looked at the beauty in front of him quietly. He only needed to stretch out his hand to take her into his arms.

Li Waner waited for a long time but did not see Yuan Shao make any next move. Her face turned red with embarrassment under the hijab.

"It's late at night, Mr. Lang."
