Yang Fanzhi was so proud that he couldn't close his mouth when he smiled, looking like a stupid villain who had succeeded.
Riding a tall horse, his bride sat in the sedan behind.
For a moment, I felt that it was not a loss for me to come here.
The team marched towards Yang Mansion in a mighty manner.
There were many people watching along the way.
Groups of beggars gathered around, playing the hala board and dancing and singing Lotus Falling. They shouted auspicious words vigorously. These people were well-informed and knew who was getting married, so they blocked the road and asked for money. If they don't give it, they'll act bad, roll around on the floor, etc.
Yang Fan had already given instructions not to beat or drive them away.
The knights grabbed handfuls of wedding money from the bags on their horses and threw them out.
This is a custom at weddings, commonly known as spreading money.
Yang Fan prepared ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine coins, which is one hundred strings, specifically for throwing away on the return trip.
The people and beggars around were scrambling to grab it.
Mr. Yang spent a lot of money to get married today, and he was applauded loudly.
"My wife and I are blessed to have a long and prosperous life"
"The descendants will continue to live in peace forever."
"Blessings are endless and all relatives are happy"
Those who grabbed the lucky money shouted auspicious words one after another.
Many beggars looked at the newly minted pure copper Chongzhen Tongbao in their hands, and were elated with joy.
Others couldn't put it down. The copper coins they usually used were of such good quality. It was so festive to see them. They put them in their arms and prepared to put them away when they went home.
Yang Fan's original intention of throwing away a large amount of money was to promote the new money of Zunhua Xinghe Foundry. However, he does not know the principle of bad money driving out good money. Everyone keeps the good money and wants to spend it if they have bad money.
However, Xinghe Qian'er's reputation as the first-class money maker in the Ming Dynasty has been established.
Lin Yueru was tired and sleepy. After another day and night of traveling, she was rushing back to the capital in a carriage from Chaoyang Gate when she suddenly felt the carriage stop.
"Why did you stop the car? Is there anything wrong?" She opened the curtain and asked.
"Aunt Lin, it's okay. Our master's wedding procession is passing by. The royal guards have temporarily blocked the intersection. They can pass by in a moment."
Hearing that today was the happy day for Yang Fan to marry Tu Shanyue, Lin Yueru fell silent and felt a little uncomfortable.
He sighed quietly.
For eighteen years, she had been arrogant and had never thought that she would be a concubine. Although she was satisfied with Yang Fan, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
"Let's take a detour. Let's go home quickly. They go slowly." Waiting here is really a bit embarrassing, and I don't want to give way to the little girl.
"Here" everyone obeyed the order and turned their horses' heads to go back to the house through other roads.
Yang Fan led the team back to Yang's Mansion. The middle door of the mansion was immediately opened, a hundred thousand firecrackers were set off, and there was a flaming red confetti in front of the mansion's door.
The sedan chair was carried into the front yard on red firecracker confetti.
The bride got off the sedan with the help of the maid, and the guests, relatives and friends on both sides immediately threw colorful grains mixed with red paper fragments.
The maids quickly opened small umbrellas painted on oil paper to resist. Support the bride to pass quickly.
From under her hijab, Tu Shanyue saw a one-foot-wide red carpet on the ground. She stepped on the red carpet as soon as she got off the sedan chair.
The red carpet looked very luxurious, and she was immediately very satisfied with Yang Fan's meticulousness. She still cared very much about Yang Fan's handling of these details, and her little face was filled with happiness.
She was born as a general, and because of her martial arts training, her little feet were petite, but they were powerful. This is one of the reasons why Yang Fan likes her. She is usually a little strange, and Yang Fan's aesthetics is incompatible with this era.
In this era, everyone likes women with bound feet, but Yang Fan finds it disgusting. There is no one with bound feet in his house. And it is strictly forbidden, otherwise you will be kicked out of the house.
This is a very severe punishment. There is no place better than the Yang Mansion these days. Even in the palace, there are too many eunuchs and the food supply is not timely, so people starve to death every day.
Therefore, this rule is strictly followed by people in Yang Fan's system, and no one dares to violate it.
Tu Shanyue was happily helped into the hall, where Yang Fan was already waiting.
The person who presided over the wedding was Mr. Wu invited from Yangliuqing. The male guest is Zhang Shize, grandson of the British Duke. Yang Fan is now very popular, the Holy Family is in full swing, and basically all the factions in the capital have sent people here. Gifts filled the front yard.
After all, Yang Fan now controls the most capable army in the capital.
The auspicious time has arrived, and Mr. Wu was preparing to start the ceremony. Suddenly, a sharp voice outside the door shouted: "The imperial edict has arrived, and Yang Fan and his wife are here to receive it."
Everyone hurriedly went out to greet the envoy.
After setting up the incense table, Yang Fan and Tu Shanyue knelt down to listen to the order.
Wang Chengen laughed and said: "Congratulations, Mr. Yang. The Holy One heard that you are getting married today and specially asked this old slave to congratulate you."
"Your Majesty Yang Fan, please kowtow to express your gratitude to Heaven." Yang Fan and his wife quickly kowtowed to thank you for your kindness.
"The Holy Spirit decreed that Yang Fan, a member of the Jinyi Guards of Thousand Households, was concerned about state affairs, devoted himself to the public service, and performed meritorious deeds. He was promoted to the commander of the Jinyi Guards, and at the same time, Yang Fan was promoted to the commander of the Zunhua Guards, a colleague, and the officer of the Thousand Households Guarding the Rock Beach. , admire this."
Those below the third rank generally do not need an imperial edict for promotion. Yang Fan is in the guard system. The emperor should issue an order to the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, and the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion should issue an official document to the Zunhua Guards.
Therefore, when Wang Chengen came to congratulate him today, he only brought His Majesty's oral instructions. There will be a formal order from the Fifth Army Commander's Office later.
Tu Shanyue felt happy. The commanding officer was already the commander's deputy. This was a third-grade official position. From now on, Yang Lang was considered a senior military attache. In Zunhua's one-third-acre land, no one can afford to provoke him anymore.
Because Yang Lang has his own territory, and there are more than 3,000 officers and soldiers guarding Qianhu Station. At the same time, he also serves as the commander and commander of the guards, which is a very powerful position.
The Luanshitan Guarding Thousand Households Station was newly established and upgraded from the Hundred Households Station. Zunhua Guard originally had five thousand-household offices. These thousand-household offices are still under the jurisdiction of the original military officers and have no intersection with each other.
Normally, the Zunhua Guard has one commander and two commanders. Because Yang Fan was the newly established Qianhu Guard Station, the number of commanding officers of the Zunhua Guard increased to three.
Wang Chengen finished announcing his decree, drank a glass of wedding wine from Yang Fanjing, and went back to resume his duties. Yang Fan hurried to the gate and took the opportunity to stuff a wad of banknotes into his hand when they parted.
Wang Chengen pinched it and found that the size should be fifty taels, probably around twenty. He immediately smiled and said goodbye to Yang Fan with satisfaction. Yang Fan has always spent a lot of money. If it were someone else, it would only be one or two hundred taels.
After seeing off the angel, everyone was very excited. When Yang Fan got married, the emperor sent the eunuch, the chief eunuch of the ceremonial department, to announce his blessings and congratulations. It was obvious that Yang Fan was deeply attached to the saint, and they all wanted to further curry favor with him.
Then the wedding entered the most important part, worshiping heaven and earth.
Yang Fan's parents are not here, so they can only place a pair of chairs in front of them to represent their parents.
"Make three obeisances," Mr. Wu sang loudly.
"First bow to heaven and earth", "second bow to parents" and "husband and wife bow to each other"
"Sent to the bridal chamber"
Yang Fan happily entered the bridal chamber with Xiao Niangpi.
The two sat down on the edge of the bed.
I thought that at this time, I would have to retreat and perform the courtesy of Duke Zhou.
Unexpectedly, there are still many procedures that have not been completed in the bridal chamber.
Aunt Mei was dressed in a formal dress. When she saw the newlyweds finishing the wedding, she sang loudly: "Please take off the hijab."
Mei Xiang, who was standing next to her, handed over a weighing rod and said softly: "I wish you all the best!"
Yang Fan smiled at Mei Xiang, took the scale, and gently lifted the hijab. Tu Shanyue lowered her head shyly and did not dare to look at Yang Fan.
Yang Fan smiled in his heart, he is usually such a free and easy person, but he was so shy today.
Yang Fan was just thinking about letting the girls go down, and he and his wife were living in a world of two, when he heard Aunt Mei singing again: "Please perform the guan ceremony for the newlyweds."
Yang Fan wailed in his heart, the ceremony was not over yet.
