    Behind the groom's official, there is a welcoming team of dozens of people. The majestic Guan Yu and the elegant Xu Huang are riding behind Wenhan, one on the left and the other on the right. Behind them, the handsome and unrestrained  Xi Long and Zhang Hong, who looked upright and serious, were followed by Gao Shun and Han Song. Zhou Cang, Li Qiang, and Pei Yuanshao walked at the end. All three of them held high a plaque with the characters Double Happiness written in gold paint.  .

    On one side is Xiao Yuhan, who is wearing red clothes, with double braids, and carrying a red lantern. Eight big men in sedan bearers' uniforms are carrying a large sedan in the middle of the team. At the end of the team, there are ten people.  There are several musicians, including gongs, drums, and suona players.

    With the sound of gongs and drums, the wedding team officially set off.  As soon as the wedding team left the prefect's house, many people who had been waiting for a long time were attracted to watch. Children followed the team with smiles on both sides. At this time, the matchmaker who followed the team would give them gift cakes, and the children who got the gift cakes laughed.  They were even happier, and everyone was holding up the gift cakes in their hands, as if they were showing off to their parents.

    Under the cheers and laughter, the wedding team arrived at Cai Yong¡¯s house.  The matchmaker led the children into Cai Yan's house. After a while, Cai Yong, who was wearing a gorgeous red dress with gold patterns and flowers, walked out of the house. With Cai Yong's approval, the matchmaker walked into Cai Yan's boudoir and put in the bride's boudoir.  Cai Yan, who was serving, came out to welcome him.

    I saw Cai Yan wearing a wide-sleeved double-breasted Zhai robe. The red robe was covered with jewels and embroidery. He had a graceful appearance. He wore a beaded phoenix crown, a red hijab, and embroidered shoes.  Although her face could not be seen, Cai Yan's graceful figure made many onlookers exclaim.

    Wenhan didn¡¯t know how many mouthfuls of saliva he swallowed today. He saw Cai Yan walking slowly under the leadership of the matchmaker. If it weren¡¯t for the reminder from Guan Yu behind him, he almost forgot to get off his horse to greet him.

    Wenhan dismounted, greeted Cai Yan, and watched Cai Yan, dressed in red, enter the sedan chair.  At this time, the music sounded again.  After Wen Han saluted Cai Yong, he rode on the clouds and Wuzui and led the wedding procession to the prefect's mansion.  At the same time, many people on the side couldn't help but applaud and express their congratulations.

    The wedding was proceeding step by step, and Wenhan suddenly felt like he was in a sweet dream. He actually got married and established a family in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

    After the wedding team returned to the prefect's mansion, the matchmaker led Cai Yan into the side room first.  The next step is to wait for the right time to visit the church and get married.  As time went by, the guests invited by Wen Han also arrived one after another.

    In front of the gate of the prefect's mansion, there was an endless stream of carriages and horses. First, Wang Yun and Yang Biao came from Luoyang with betrothal gifts.  Then, Wen Han's close friend Cao Cao arrived, along with the Xiahou brothers, Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Cao Hong and others.  Then came the officials, wealthy businessmen and wealthy businessmen who came from various counties in Hedong.  Then came the wealthy Anyi family, Wei Zhongdao, the head of the Wei family, and his two uncles.  In the end, even wealthy families from other counties in Hedong also came.

    When Wenhan heard the arrival of these people, he just smiled faintly. Wenhan did not send invitations to these wealthy heads of Hedong families.  They came uninvited this time, thinking they must want to sell well and settle their old feud with him.  This can be seen from their extremely generous betrothal gifts. Every treasure they sent was of great value, which almost made the servant who announced the ceremony almost speechless with fear.

    After Wenhan greeted the guests for a while, he was pulled aside by Cao Cao. Cao Cao punched Wenhan heavily in his arms and said with a smile.

    "Tell me, when did you, a prodigal in love, take the drug and make Junior Sister Cai Yan unconscious?"

    "Hey, Meng De's words are wrong. Yan'er and I are in love, and I have never given any drugs."

    "Didn't you take any drug? Cao doesn't believe it. Junior sister Cai Yan was born like a fish and a wild goose, and she is proficient in the art of piano, and her poetry is amazing. She is a first-class talented girl in Luoyang. How could she do this if you didn't take the drug?  Blindly, I fell in love with you, Wen Bufan, who comes from a poor family and is not as handsome and charming as Cao? "

    Although he knew that Cao Cao was joking, Wen Han still rolled his eyes repeatedly, and then glanced at Cao Cao again, his face gradually darkened.

    "What's going on in Luoyang now? I sent an invitation to General He a few days ago. However, he just sent a betrothal gift yesterday. The person who gave the gift said that Luoyang is in chaos now, and General He really can't spare any time.  . Meng De, is Luoyang really so chaotic?"

    "Huh, it's more than just chaos. It's simply murderous. That day, He Suigao didn't listen to me and wiped out Zhang Rang and the other ten permanent attendants. Now, Zhang Rang and the other ten permanent attendants took a breather. They first flattered Queen He to save their lives.  Then he went to support Empress Dowager Dong. Now that the emperor was seriously ill, Empress Dowager Dong had the highest prestige in the palace.

    "The Prince's Association was raised by Empress Dowager Dong, so she naturally wanted the Prince to cooperate with the future ruler of the world.  Zhang Rang and other castrated dogs captured Empress Dowager Dong.On the surface, they were trying to eliminate hostile forces for the Prince Association, but in fact, they were using the help of Empress Dowager Dong to eliminate dissidents and randomly accuse ministers who had always opposed them and kill them.

    At this time, Queen He woke up from a dream and realized that she was being used by Zhang Rang and other geldings, so she quickly found He Suigao to repair the relationship between brother and sister.  It is said that Queen He pretended to cry in front of He Suigao for two hours.  The cry was so pitiful that even the maids passing by could not help but cry when they heard it.

    Now, the two brothers and sisters He Suigao and Queen He are in one faction, and Shi Changshi and Empress Dowager Dong are in another faction. The two factions are fighting openly and secretly for the heir to the throne all day long.

    Bufan, why don¡¯t you go back to Luoyang with me after you get married.  Now with your power in Hedong, He Suigao will definitely welcome you to join.  "

    When Cao Cao finished speaking, his small but extremely energetic eyes revealed a look full of expectation, and he grabbed Wenhan's hand to persuade him.  But Wenhan shook his head and looked directly at Cao Cao.

    "Meng De. You know how He Suigao has always treated me. He just regards me as a tool to gain power for him. Even if I am willing to help him at this time, he must think that I, Wen Bufan, want to  I'm afraid he will only give me a small official position when I succeed.

    He has never looked down upon me, a person from a poor family.  Why should I sacrifice my life for him?  Now I have jurisdiction over one county in Hedong, which is enough.  I, Wen Bufan, really don't value those princely positions that much.

    "However, it is our duty to punish the eunuchs and bandits and bring justice to the people of the world. If Na He Suigao thinks of me in the future and invites me to join in the great cause, I will definitely rush to Luoyang.  But now, I will never fill He Suigao's big feet.  "

    Cao Cao didn't seem to expect that Wenhan would reject him without hesitation. Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, then closed his eyes and thought for a while before letting go of Wenhan's wrist.

    "Since Bufan doesn't want to, Cao will not force others to do anything. Haha, look at me, I am really ignorant and ignorant. On your wedding day, I will tell you all the annoying things."

    "Then, when it comes to the banquet, you have to punish yourself with three drinks first, no, it's better to have six drinks."

    "Hahaha. Okay, not to mention six cups, sixty cups are fine. On your big day, Wen Bufan, how can I, Cao Mengde, have the reason to leave soberly. If I don't drink today, the world will be turned upside down and the earth will fall apart. I won't allow it."

    Wen Han and Cao Cao, two close friends, were talking and laughing again on the side.  At this time, Xilong, who had an anxious look on his face, saw that Wenhan and Cao Cao should have finished talking about business, so he quickly ran to Wenhan's side, gave a brief salute to Cao Cao, and then said.

    "Bufan, what time is it? Why don't you go to the hall to pay your respects? If your father-in-law doesn't see you again, I think he will be furious."

    "It's over, it's all you Cao Aha! I'll settle the score with you later!"

    Wenhan slapped his forehead, and then he remembered the auspicious time to worship, and hurriedly followed Xilong towards the hall.  Cao Cao looked at Wen Han's back, shook his head slightly, and muttered with a sigh.

    "This kid is still so arrogant. It seems that he will be scolded by Teacher Cai Yong a lot in the days to come."

    In Cao Cao¡¯s acquaintance, Wen Han, a close friend, was very strange.  When he is marching in battle, facing danger or making some big plans, he is extremely meticulous and it is rare for him to make mistakes.  But when it comes to the trivial matters in daily life, he is as careless and nervous as a child who has not grown up, and often makes a lot of jokes.

    But in any case, Wen Bufan's status in Cao Cao's mind is important and special.  Cao Cao looked at Wen Han's back silently. After being quiet for a while, he suddenly laughed again and walked towards the hall.

    "Bow down to heaven and earth!"

    When Cao Cao came to the hall, he happened to hear the matchmaker shouting at the top of her voice. Wen Han, who was wearing a bright red groom's suit, and Cai Yan, who was in a gorgeous and festive bride's suit, were worshiping the heaven and earth outside the door.

    "Second thanks to Gaotang!"

    Cai Yong, Zhou Long, and Lin were seated. Originally, according to etiquette, they should not sit together to worship at the same time. Cai Yong is the head of the bride's family and should bow down when welcoming the bride.  But Wen Han believed that everyone should be treated equally and let Cai Yong receive the gift here, which would also prove Cai Yan's position in his heart.

    And Cai Yong is his master. Once a master, he is always a father. To a certain extent, he can be regarded as the head of the man's family.  Cai Yong, who was dressed in red with gold patterns, had a smile on his face, as if his brows were smiling together.  But Zhou Long and Lin were a little nervous. They were originally just insignificant people in Jie County.

    And now, the guests around the hall are either dignitaries or wealthy businessmen. The look they cast with respect at this moment was something Zhou Long and Lin could not even imagine in the past.

      Wen Han and Cai Yan bowed heavily to Cai Yong, Zhou Long, and Lin, thanking them for their upbringing, their teaching, their reinvention, and their care

    After the greetings, Xiao Yuhan, who was wearing braids and a cheerful red silk dress, brought tea.  Wen Han and Cai Yan took the tea cups from the tea tray, and first served tea to Cai Yong. Cai Yong happily took the tea handed to him by Wen Han and Cai Yan, and then handed the newlyweds a red envelope. The newlyweds took it  , and served tea to Zhou Long and Lin respectively.  Zhou Long bit his mouth, tears were about to burst out of his eyes again, and then Tea Cup's hands were shaking a little, while Lin behind him was better than Zhou Long, but his nose was also red.

    Wen Han and Cai Yan received the red envelopes from Zhou Long and Lin.  The matchmaker shouted again with a smile on her face.

    "Husband and wife say goodbye!"

    Wen Han and Cai Yan, under the witness of everyone, turned around, knelt facing each other, and bowed at the same time.  This bow means that the two will never leave each other, hold each other's hand, and grow old together with him.

    "The ceremony is complete~! The newlyweds have been married since then. The old woman is here first. I wish the newlyweds a happy marriage and a son soon."

    "I wish the third brother (third brother) and his sister-in-law (sister-in-law) that their love is as strong as gold and they will never be separated."

    "I wish Governor Wen and Mrs. Wen a deep friendship and eternal love."

    ¡°¡­.¡±

    After the ceremony, the words of blessing could be heard endlessly.  Cai Yan was first sent to the official new house by the matchmaker, waiting for the wedding tonight.  Wen Han, along with Cai Yong, Zhou Long, Lin and others, greeted the guests.

    At this time, it was dark at night.  In the courtyard of the main hall, a banquet has been set up, and plates of hot dishes that have just been cooked are placed on the table in the hands of the servants.  The guests took their seats one after another, but no one paid attention to the food on the table. Instead, they all called the groom to come over and propose a toast.
