"Sister, you are so anxious to call my whole family to come to Chengdu. It can't be as simple as a sister-brother reunion, right?" After the greetings, Lan Tian got to the point.
Gan Qian nodded and said: "Boyang and Wan'er have already made an appointment to get married. They are now over sixteen years old. I intend for them to get married soon, so I let Ziyu's family move to Sichuan."
"So that's it..." Lan Tian said to himself. No wonder Lan Yuan had to be present. It turned out that Sister A was looking for a son-in-law.
"Wan'er is already quite young. If she doesn't get married in an ordinary peasant family, she will be punished if the government finds out. Do Ziyu and her siblings have any opinions about getting married to them?" Gan Qian added.
Lu Lingqi met Gan Qian's inquiring eyes, then turned to Lantian and said: "The husband is in charge of all the big things in the family, but the marriage of the two children has been decided a long time ago. Now it's just that the time has been advanced. Ziyu shouldn't refuse. ."
"Of course I have no objection. I originally planned to let Boyang return from the southern expedition and earn some military merit before going to Sichuan to propose marriage to the king and sister..." Lan Tian nodded slightly.
Liu Bei stared at Lan Yuan and said meaningfully: "The ancients said that when Boyang and Wan'er get married first, it will not be too late to conquer Linyi Kingdom. However, although Linyi Kingdom is small, this move is the credit of destroying the country. Ziyu prepared it The betrothal gift really carries some weight."
As soon as Lan Tian heard the betrothal gift, his heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he quickly said with a smile: "The king and sister will set the date first. The wedding process such as accepting, asking for names, accepting, accepting, and asking for a date will take time. I can come this time." I haven't prepared the betrothal gift in a hurry, so I will return to Guangzhou tomorrow to make preparations."
Gan Qian waved her hands quickly: "It takes two or three months to go back and forth. Why does Ziyu have to travel so hard? My sister has let Taichang live her life. The fifteenth day of this month is an auspicious day. How about Boyang and Wan'er getting married on that day?" "
"March 15th? It's less than ten days from now. Isn't it too hasty in such a short period of time?" Lan Tian was full of doubts.
Lan Tian and Lu Lingqi looked at each other, not expecting Gan Qian to be so eager. Although their wedding in Xinye was very simple, it took two or three months.
Gan Qian explained: "My sister knows that Boyang has military affairs. If he gets married early, he can return to Jiaozhou early. Doesn't he also want to open up territory for the king? Nacai, asking for names, naji, nazheng, asking for time, etc. The process can be shortened completely, and Tai Chang knows how to prepare the betrothal gift."
"Is this okay?" Lan Tian looked at Liu Bei and asked.
Liu Bei had a kind face, looked at Gan Qian tenderly, and replied with a smile: "The queen is making arrangements for this matter. She wants to get the children married as soon as possible. The orphan is also very supportive. Shu'er is only one year older than Wan'er, and she is three years old." I married Xingguo years ago."
Seeing that Lan Tian was still hesitant, Gan Qian asked additionally: "Ziyu is straightforward and sensible, and never sticks to ancient methods. Do you have other ideas?"
Lan Tian smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I don't think it matters, but Wan'er is the king's daughter after all. If her wedding etiquette is sloppy, will it damage the majesty of the king?"
"Don't worry Ziyu, all the etiquette will be fulfilled, it will just shorten the time. Deshun will take care of this matter. The Guhui will canonize Wan'er as a princess. All Chengdu officials and people can see this grand occasion, so not only It will not damage your dignity, but it will show your prestige through this matter." Liu Bei replied solemnly.
Lan Tian had seen how simple weddings were in later generations, and Liu Bei and Gan Qian seemed so "informal", so Lan Tian agreed in front of the two children.
With Taichang Lai Gong organizing the wedding, there is no need for Liu Bei and Lan Tian to be busy. They can just wait until March 15th to get married.
The Lantian couple and Gan Qian had not seen each other for several years. They first asked about each other's situation in Xianying Palace, and then talked about the years in Xiaopei. Those hazy and beautiful days seemed like just yesterday. It was obvious that everyone was so depressed at that time, but aftertaste It tastes so delicious.
Liu Bei had experienced too much in his old age, and the beauty in his heart was fixed in Taoyuan, so it did not resonate. However, he still patiently stayed by his side, while Lan Yuan and Liu Wan listened quietly to their parents' stories.
Unconsciously, it was evening. General Chen Dao appeared at the gate of the palace. He clasped his fists and reported to Liu Bei: "Your Majesty, the reception banquet for General Lan has been prepared. According to your request, two hundred civil and military officials have been notified. They are already here at this moment." Take a seat in the main hall of the palace."
"It's okay to be alone, Ziyu and Boyang, let your brothers and sisters continue chatting with the queen, and I will introduce Chengdu officials to you and your son." Liu Bei stood up.
"Two hundred people? I don't even know that many people. Why do you need to mobilize all your troops?" Lan Tian looked suspicious.
Liu Bei patted Lan Tian on the shoulder and said: "The people of Shu only hear Ziyu's name but not his appearance. Let them open their eyes today and see what kind of charm Gu's right-hand man has."
"Your Majesty, this gift is too much..." Lan Tian clasped his fists and shook his head.
"A true man does his duty. Ziyu has done so much for Gu, and he can bear no matter how high the courtesy is. Let's go and let the Shu people meet Gu's Mr. Xuan." Liu Bei's eyes were firm.
"Wei." Lan Tian clasped his fists and nodded.
Lan Tian and Lan Yuan said goodbye to Gan Qian and Lu Lingqi, and followed Liu Bei straight to the main hall of the palace. When the three of them stepped into the threshold of the hall, the originally noisy hall suddenly became quiet, and the dark crowd stood up like a wave.
Liu Bei and Lan Tian met the strange eyes, and the three of them walked forward through the center of the main hall. Finally, Liu Bei asked Lan Tian to take his seat on the right, while Lan Yuan sat behind Lan Tian.
Liu Bei's move shocked Lantian because Prime Minister Zhuge Liang was seated second on the left, and General Zhang Fei on the right was seated three seats next to the empty seat.
Lantian's Jiaozhou Mu and Hou General were not ranked first, so they stood still and did not sit down.
"Ziyu is a guest. Please sit down and sit down. I'm here to introduce you to the officials of Chengdu." Liu Bei said lightly and instructed Lantian to take a seat.
"Well..."
While Lan Tian was hesitating, Zhang Fei patted the soft seat on the right and said with a smile: "Brother, please sit down. We are close to each other. We can have a few more drinks tonight."
"Then I'll be disrespectful." Lan Tian spread his arms and knelt down beside the desk.
Guangzhou has now completely abandoned kneeling and replaced it with bench seats that are more suitable for leg stretching, but Yizhou still uses the traditional sitting method because of its high mountains and long rivers.
"Xingguo, why don't you say hello to your uncle and Brother Lan?" Zhang Fei glared and gave the man behind him a rough order.
Zhang Bao stood up quickly, clasped his fists and greeted in a rough voice: "Uncle, Brother Boyang, I haven't seen you for many years..."
Zhang Fei took Zhang Bao to Quanling in his early years. At that time, he and Lan Yuan played with flooded ants. They hadn't seen each other for several years. Lan Tian found that the boy was as tall as Zhang Fei, but his skin color was not as dark. Maybe He followed his mother Xiahou.
Lan Tian nodded in greeting, and Lan Yuan stood up to return the salute and shouted: "Brother Xingguo."
Upon seeing this, Liu Bei stretched out his hand to stop him: "Ziyu and Yide, please stop reminiscing about the past. Prime Minister, please introduce Ziyu to the talented people from Shu who are here today."
"Wei." Zhuge Liang stood up after hearing the order.
