After staying in the city for a few days, the wedding day soon arrived.
Outside the gate of Yu's mansion, there was still a lot of traffic. In addition to the wealthy families who came to congratulate him, more than half of the scoundrels and idlers in the city also gathered around, noisily begging for gifts and food.
Yu Jiacheng is powerful, but these scoundrels who have no wealth are also fearless. They gather here in groups. If there are slaves with sticks to drive them away, they simply lie on the ground and let them be beaten and scolded, but they refuse to leave.
, I am sure that the Yu family did not dare to make the door of their house full of smoke and blood flow on this great occasion. In order to prevent these scoundrels from causing trouble, the Yu family even built many food tents on the street, where everyone came
The congratulators can even shout out a few compliments and auspicious words, and they can have a good time here. If there are more bold and unruly people, they can even ask for some old robes.
Seeing this messy scene, Li Tai couldn't help but feel happy. Things in the world are indeed interlocking and restricting each other. If you want to feel that you are extremely powerful and have no taboos, there will always be someone who can deal with you.
It took Yu Kuan and his slaves a long time to invite Li and Tai into the house.
There were many guests in the front hall, and Yu Jin's eldest son Yu Shi was there to entertain them. When he learned that Li Tai had entered the house, Yu Shi was also in a hurry to greet them.
Yu Jin has many children. The eldest son Yu Shi was born as early as Luoyang. He is now nearly thirty years old and in the prime of life. He serves as the governor of the imperial army in Chang'an. However, all the children from Yu Yi on down have entered Guanzhong.
Born later, Yu Yi, the oldest, is only eleven years old this year.
"The household is busy today and I really don't have time to accompany you for a long time. I would like to ask Governor Li and some young men to go to the other hall for a while and have their own families to receive them."
Yu Shi stood outside for a moment, and several more guests were introduced. He clasped his fists at Li Tai and smiled apologetically, then turned around and hurriedly greeted them.
In the separate hall across the courtyard, a large number of people have gathered, forming a team that will go to welcome the bride later.
The Yu family arranged six groomsmen this time. In addition to Li Tai and Shuofeng, there was also Yu Kuan and the son of a family general. The remaining two were Shangshu Ling, Yuan Qian, son of Wang Yuanzan of Guangping, and Yang Shi of Hongnong.
Yang Xuan's son Yang Yuan was later the uncle of Chu Gong Yang Su.
From the arrangement of the groomsmen, it can also be seen that Yu Jin has a wide range of interpersonal contacts in Kansai and is very easy to get along with.
The clans of the Yuan and Wei dynasties, the Guanzhong aristocratic clan, the Beizhen military gate, and Li Tai can be regarded as representing the Guandong gentry. Perhaps not intentionally, but these waves of political power in the entire Guanzhong are all reflected in the team of the best groomsmen of the Yu family.
The two arrived quite early. The other two groomsmen had not yet entered the house, so they sat down in the other hall. Not long after, a servant of the Yu family came into the hall and brought the best man a congratulatory dress and a red hakama pleat.
, black robes, hats, shoes, accessories and other items are all available.
When they came into the house to talk about etiquette a few days ago, Li Tai and the other groomsmen made custom-made clothes and tried them on because of his family. Now there was no need to try on any more.
"Isn't my outfit beautiful?"
Shuofeng was a little unhappy. He had dressed up carefully before entering the city today, and he didn't think the robes that the Yu family had prepared at the last minute would look very good. But when he saw Li Tai looking at him, he didn't dare to dwell on it.
At this time, the other two groomsmen also came over, and they were almost the same age as Li Tai. Yang Xuan's son Yang Yuan had a good attitude. After getting to know each other, they chatted for a while, and he was especially interested in Li Tai's Dushui Administration Office.
However, the attitude of Prince Yuan Qian of Guangping was a little more arrogant. He was quite smiling towards Li Tai, but a bit cold and distant towards Shu Fengze.
Li Tai was also a protective person, and saw that this boy was not easy to get along with. Apart from giving him a little courtesy when they first met, he didn't bother to talk to him several times after they met. No matter how he looked at his younger brother, he was more pleasing to the eye than this boy.
"This kid is a bit crazy, brother, just watch, Li Jiu and I have already cooperated to deal with him!"
Shuofeng Zi could see that Prince Guangping didn't like him, and he was very angry. He pointed at Yuan Qian and said to Li Tai.
The Yu family also provided robes and clothes for the two groomsmen who arrived later. Yu Yi, who had been receiving etiquette lessons in the back hall, also walked into the hall and thanked the several groomsmen.
The second child is not very old, but he has red lips and white teeth. He is a very handsome young man. He dressed up carefully today, and the young lady looks even more dazzling.
Yu Wentai himself was not very good-looking, and he had very high requirements for appearance when choosing his son-in-law. Shuofeng was not much younger than Yu Lao Er, but the time of marriage was far behind his brother-in-law. In addition to the consideration of the power of his father's generation, he probably
It’s also because he doesn’t have an advantage in appearance.
Now that the groom and the groom are ready, the groomsmen also stood up and went to the side room to change their robes.
Li Tai was the first to finish changing and go out, stretching his hands and feet to adapt to the new robe. Yu Kuan also walked out of the other room. When he saw Li Tai, he couldn't help but sigh: "The Governor is usually handsome and handsome.
Although he is full of energy, he can still quibble that it is not as clever as the decoration, so he is seen as inferior. But now that they are in the same category, they still judge superiors and inferiors, which makes people ashamed to act together!"
Several groomsmen changed their clothes and left one after another, but when they stood next to Li Tai, they looked a little uncomfortable. Men in this world are naturally brave and strong, but that doesn't mean that strong and handsome can't be at the same time. Who can
Are you willing to be a beautiful background for others?
"I think the Yu family made this robe to shame us and show off my brother! The same material can only highlight the talent. If I had known that my brother would also participate, I wouldn't show off my shame...
…”
Shuofeng pulled on his robes to look more upright, turned to look at Li Tai, and whispered again with a frustrated look on his face.
It was already a long time in the afternoon, and everyone had a light meal at Yu's house. After the slaves opened a path in the street, they each mounted their horses and went out, surrounded by the groom and the second son.
However, there was a slight problem when the groomsmen were queuing up. The Yu family had originally arranged for the head of the family, Yu Kuan, and the most noble Prince Guangping to take the lead respectively. However, Yuan Qian refused to take the lead and was not happy to be with Li Tai.
They were in the same row, so they had to let Li Tai and Yu Kuan lead their respective teams.
As soon as the procession to welcome the bride took to the street, the street suddenly became noisy, and there were endless shouts and cheers. On both sides of the procession, slaves of the Yu family held staffs and walked along the street. Although the street was very lively, the procession went smoothly.
Only some of the shouting and shouting on the street was a bit harsh, and there was no shortage of idlers to join in the fun. They pointed at Li Tai in the team and shouted loudly: "This groomsman is so handsome, but be careful when he goes to the girl's house and is robbed to be the bride's groom."
!”
Li Taizi did not dare to respond blindly to such nonsense. He just straightened his posture, did not squint, and turned a deaf ear. For the first time, he felt that being too good-looking was a burden.
Today is a great celebration for the Dahangtai family. The entire Tai family has a day off, and a special passage has been opened for the wedding team to enter the back garden of the Daxingtai family.
The person in charge of guiding the girl's family was Yu Wenhu. He rode his horse towards Li Tai and laughed loudly and said, "I made the mistake of placing you in this position, Boshan. I will greet you in the mansion."
Wait, the onlookers only talk about Boshan, but not the rest!"
Li Tai was a little embarrassed after hearing this, and he repeatedly clasped his fists in apology. Although he usually likes to be pushy, now is really not the right occasion.
There were also many congratulatory guests in Taiwanese government, and the welcoming procession lined the streets to greet the bride.
Needless to say, the prestige of Daxingtai Yuwentai is great. General Yu Jin can now be said to be under one person in the tyrant, so the marriage between the two families is naturally a big deal.
Although the etiquette prepared by the Taifu government was the same as that of Lieutenant Li Bi's family at the beginning of the year, the actual number of congratulators present was much more than at the beginning of the year. Even the generals like Dugu Xin came back to congratulate him in person, and Prince Yuan Qin also made an early greeting on behalf of the emperor.
Coming to Taifu, Huazhou gave the two married families a lot of face.
Ordinary congratulators stood on both sides of the road to welcome the bride, while senior officials from the imperial court and the Taiwanese government watched the ceremony. As the wedding procession came in, they lowered their heads and saw that the first thing they saw was the groomsmen at the head of the queue.
And then, Li Tai was extremely eye-catching.
"In terms of style, although there are few people in Kansai, there is no one like this young man! Even if there are many people in the old capital, Li Boshan is worthy of the reputation of being a leader in Luoxia! The lineage of Xuan Jinggong is revived here..."
Wang Yuanxin of Guangling stood on the watchtower and looked down. He pointed at Li Tai in the team and said with a smile to Gao Zhongmi who was standing next to him: "Situ Gong, although we are two young men from different sects, we live in the same household and have a deep friendship."
.I heard that interviews have been conducted frequently recently, and Mr. Situ has his own eyes on him. Is there anyone who can go in and find out?"
Gao Zhongmi also smiled brightly after hearing this. He had been panicked for a while before. Later, as time went by, various families formally visited the house and announced their intentions, and they realized that it was a false alarm.
He regarded Li Tai as his nephew. Of course he was overjoyed to see his son in the household being so admired. When he heard what King Guangling said, he just waved his hands and said with a smile: "My son has his own knowledge and doesn't need anyone else's guidance. After all, I am not him."
Even those who are close by blood do not dare to go beyond the assigned limits. As long as he is happy, I am here to just donate materials and help him!"
There were many dignitaries gathered around Gao Zhongmi. After hearing what he said, many people came closer to ask Li Tai's thoughts and interests.
It's not that Shiliu is not reserved enough and his adopted daughter hates marrying, it's just that this candidate is too good and impeccable. Whether it succeeds or not is irrelevant for now, but if you don't even give it a try, it will always be a pity when you think about it after you miss it.
Looking at the people upstairs talking and asking questions, it was like a marriage ceremony between powerful officials in the Taiwanese government, and for a while it seemed to be a blind date consultation meeting for the Li family in Longxi.
Not only Gao Zhongmi, but also Cui Qian and Lu Rou, who were standing on the other side of the watchtower, had a lot of people gathered around them. The two people who didn't want to be too ostentatious and ostentatious felt quite uneasy for a while, but they were secretly annoyed by this expression in their hearts.
My brother is really recruiting people.
Accompanied by the cheerful sound of drums, the wedding team finally arrived in front of the main hall of Bafu's back garden. Guests watching the ceremony gathered here one after another. Infected by the joyful atmosphere, all of them had smiles on their faces.
While Yu Kuan was in the hall reciting the wedding announcement, Li Tai took a few steps back from the team. During the whole process of welcoming the bride, although he was not in charge of Yu Lao Er, he was still annoyed by the comments from the onlookers.
Xiaohan, Yu Laoer looked at him with a strange look, and he really didn't dare to step forward to make any limelight.
