It was sunny on the second day of February in the fourth year of Jianxing.
Fengzhuang's sunbathing area has been noisy since early in the morning. Waves of hot air rose into white mist, which condensed in the sky above Zhuangzi and never dispersed, shrouding the entire Zhuangzi in haze.
Before noon, people walking on the official road could already smell the aroma of food wafting from the other side of Zhuangzi.
Compared to the hustle and bustle in Zhuangzi, the house is much quieter.
After all, getting married is a serious and serious matter. Guests can make noises and congratulations, but the host cannot be too noisy, otherwise it will appear too frivolous.
"Brother, Meng Yan has sent a congratulatory gift."
Li Yi, dressed in fine clothes, walked in and said to Feng Yong, who was sitting in the inner hall.
"Hey, that old boy is quite sensible."
Feng Yong hadn't spoken yet, but Zhao Guang on the side answered.
"How can Meng Yan be the person he is today?"
Feng Yong took the gift list and after saying this, he raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "It's a generous move."
"What did he send?"
Zhao Guang craned his neck to look over.
"Two tiger skins, ten tiger skins, ten tusks, and hundreds of Yunnan horses..."
Everyone in the inner hall was close to Feng Yong, and they all had quite a lot of money on hand. If they were to send some gold, silver, copper, etc., but it did not reach a certain amount, no one would blink an eye.
But these rare things may not be available even if you have money.
Especially this rhinoceros leather, which is rhinoceros leather. If someone can make it into leather armor, it will not only be light but also strong and cannot be penetrated by ordinary swords and arrows. It is a rare good thing.
Rhinoceros are still found everywhere in the jungles south of the Yangtze River. They are huge in size, have thick skin and rough flesh. Although they are usually gentle in temperament, they are extremely ferocious when injured and are difficult to hunt.
In addition to the large amount of ivory, I don't know how many people Meng Yan lost in order to obtain these things.
"Brother, how about you match this skinny to me?"
When Zhao Guang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"You want to steal my brother's gift too!"
After Li Yi sat down and heard this, he immediately scolded loudly.
Although everyone here has been following Feng Yong for a long time, when it comes to the number one younger brother, it has to be Zhao Guang.
The only person who dared to speak out against Zhao Guang was Li Yi.
After all, the identity is there.
Everyone else was wearing formal attire, but Zhao Guang was the only one who wore fine iron breastplate armor. The armor was polished until it shined, and when he stood in the sun, he was like a luminous body.
This armor was drawn by Feng Yong, and Nanxiang had enough qualified fine iron, so it was a sample made.
There was only one pair like this, and Zhao Guang put it on first.
Also delivered was a pair of chainmail armor, which took a master craftsman from Nanxiang a year to make. Unless struck by gravity, swords and arrows could not break through the armor. This was what Feng Yong was preparing to wear to Yue Jun to take office.
.
Today he is the driver of the wedding car. After all, he is the one who drove Huang Yueying's car. No one can compete with him.
Dressed like this when going to pick up a bride, and calling her the euphemistically called A-sister, she is the daughter of a general. Naturally, a military general must drive her, which is really a coquettish thing.
He doesn't go out until dusk, so I don't know what he's going to do with his clothes on now?
After hearing Li Yi's words, Zhao Guang, the light source body, said nonchalantly, "What's the point? When I get married, it won't matter even if my brother takes away all the gifts."
"When do you plan to get married?"
When Zhao Guang heard this, his face was extremely proud, "Almost."
"Soon?"
Hearing this, not only Li Yi, but also Feng Yong was shocked.
"How do you say this?"
"A few days ago, Your Excellency went to inspect the soldiers from Nanxiang outside the city. On the military station, I told Your Excellency that I also wanted to get married."
"Didn't General Zhao beat you up at that time?"
Feng Yong asked blurtly.
When Zhao Guang heard this, he glanced at Feng Yong with resentment and said, "Brother, that is the master giving instructions on the martial arts of the younger brother."
"Okay, give me some pointers on martial arts."
Feng Yong said perfunctorily, and at the same time, he was thinking in his mind that the tutor of the Zhao family is a bit special. To teach a child, it is better to beat him severely. If he agrees to the child's suggestion, he should be beaten again...
"But the adults didn't agree at the time."
Unexpectedly, Zhao Guang came to a turning point.
So he was actually beaten?
It is well known that Zhao Guang likes Huang Wudie. When he said he wanted to get married, he wanted to get married to Huang Wudie.
But Huang Wudie... is most likely a stone girl.
Maybe this is the self-protection safety mechanism produced by her body when she survived in the wild as a child.
Because if she bleeds every month, it will not only weaken her body functions, but the smell of blood may also attract wild animals.
Therefore, given Huang Wudie's current physical condition, it would be difficult for Zhao Yun to agree to this marriage.
"Then why did you say it's faster?"
"Later, when I went back home, my mother said that I am not young anymore and should get married."
Zhao Guang said proudly, "My lord was also there at the time, but he didn't say anything."
Okay, you don’t need to point out the last sentence, the amount of information here is a bit large: I didn’t expect that the famous General Zhao, actually, um, haha!
"Old Madam Zhao didn't say which young lady you were interested in?"
Li Yi said again.
When Zhao Guang heard this, he was furious, "Fart! How could it be another little lady? Of course it's Auntie Huang!"
Huh? This is a bit strange.
Everyone present looked shocked.
Based on Zhao Guang's current situation, he will definitely separate and form his own mansion in the future, so the choice of the mistress of the future mansion must be carefully considered.
It's not that Huang Wudie is not good. On the contrary, if Huang Wudie puts aside the physical reasons, he is really suitable for Zhao Guang in all aspects.
After all, he was one of the Five Tigers after General Huang. He was not a cursor commander, so Huang Wudie would be of great benefit to Zhao Guang's future development in the army.
Apart from anything else, the old man Wei Yan, the governor of Hanzhong, who regarded Huang Wudie as his own daughter, although Feng Yong disliked him, was still a general guarding the side.
Coupled with the fact that a wealthy woman like Huang Wudie has strong financial resources, once Zhao Guang opens his own house, his waist will be much stronger than that of most other houses.
It's just that the issue of future generations is a top priority and must be considered first. Unfortunately, this is also Huang Wudie's biggest flaw.
Zhao Ma was born into a noble family, so she must understand this principle, so how could she agree to this marriage?
"My mother said that if I want to marry Sister Huang, I have to ask my brother for help."
When Zhao Guang said this, he smiled at Feng Yong and said, "My mother said that there is a good doctor in my brother's house. If there is a chance, I would like to ask the medical workers in my brother's house to help me."
Of course Fan A'li is a good doctor, but Feng Yong is not able to talk about such matters that are related to a woman's privacy. Secondly, Zhang Xingcai and Huang Yueying still don't know whether they can conceive a child.
So Feng Yong naturally couldn't take the initiative to ask them to treat Huang Wudie - at least he had to wait until one of them, Zhang Xingcai and Huang Yueying, had news.
But why did Zhao Ma suddenly mention this matter? How did she know that Fan A and Li Dangzhi could cure women's diseases? Regarding Zhang Xingcai and Huang Yueying, even Zhao Guang and Li Yi did not know the details.
Feng Yong couldn't understand the reason for this for a while, but when he heard Zhao Guang take the initiative to mention this matter, he immediately nodded and agreed, "It doesn't matter. After today, you can just ask Mrs. Huang to come to the house."
Huang Wudie was considered a female guest today, so she couldn't sit with everyone else, so she and Amei helped decorate the new house.
Zhao Guangda said happily, "Sure enough, my brother still loves me!"
When Feng Yong heard this, he let out a "tsk" sound, frowned, closed his eyes, and turned away in disgust.
I'm really afraid of how you use the word "love" in this era.
Zhao Guang regained the game and didn't care about Feng Yong's disgusted look. He said to Li Yi triumphantly, "On the other hand, Wenxuan, you were engaged two years ago, but now your brother has taken the lead. This is
What’s the point?”
"Yes, Wenxuan, when do you plan to get married?"
As soon as Feng Yong heard Zhao Guang's words, he immediately remembered what happened between Li Yi and the young lady of the He family, and asked.
Li Yi didn't expect to go around in a circle, but he got himself in. He smiled bitterly and said, "My younger brother also wants to get married as soon as possible. It's just that the adults have said that our Li family has been so popular recently. I'm afraid my younger brother's marriage will not be successful."
Drag it back."
Li Hui made the greatest contribution in this merit-based reward. Not only did he win the title of General of Anhan, he was also granted the title of lord. In addition, he also had real powers such as the governor of Nanzhong and the governor of Jianning County, and even commanded Jiaozhou from afar.
The governor was very popular.
It can be said that Li Hui has brought the Nanzhong Li family into a new era of prosperity this time.
If Li Yi got married at this time and formed a marriage alliance with the He family, one of the aristocratic families in central Shu, I'm afraid it would be a bit too much.
"It's right to take it slow. Governor Li's vision is indeed far-reaching."
