The date of Liu Xie's wedding was carefully selected by Yang Biao and the people of the Taishi Department, and finally selected to be held on the eighth day of the fifth month.
As the days passed, Weiyang Palace, which had been set as the main venue for the wedding, also added a lot of things under the auspices of Liu Xie.
At least in Liu Xie's view, if the most formal Chinese wedding is not much worse than Western etiquette, looking for craftsmen to come over is more to change the visual effect of Weiyang Palace.
The palace is extremely solemn in terms of both the beauty of the building and the pattern, but this solemnity, in Liu Xie's view, will bring people a strong sense of oppression, and people can't help but have a heart of worship, but it is a little too solemn to use as a wedding venue.
What Liu Xie wanted was not to leave a too extravagant impression on those foreign envoys, the temperament of the nouveau riche was a bit nondescript to the Han Dynasty, which had been established for 400 years.
The solemnity must be preserved, this is the palace after all, but on top of this, to add some sacred and warm feelings, it is necessary to add some new arrangements on top of the original structure of the palace.
Liu Xie recalled that in his previous life, some of the things that were easier to make people feel sacred were mostly Buddhist buildings or Western churches, and the design and architecture of the building itself were secondary, and the most important thing was the visual impact brought by the eyes.
The theme of the palace is still black and gray as the main eye color, giving people a feeling of some depression, Liu Xie after thinking twice, decided to use gold as the main color of the Weiyang Palace to arrange, as for white, for the Chinese tradition, a little unlucky, occasional embellishment can be, but not too conspicuous.
Of course, after explaining some of the main problems, Liu Xie did not interfere too much with the work of the craftsmen, after all, he is completely a layman in this kind of thing, and what he is most afraid of is the layman to guide the insider, Liu Xie is not so much a guide, but just put forward some requirements, as for how the craftsmen do it, Liu Xie did not care.
In Liu Xie's words, interlacing is like separating mountains, and as for what others think, it is up to them to see what they think.
Not only the palace, since it has decided to hold this wedding, and there are many foreign traders who come here, it is natural to take advantage of this opportunity.
Liu Xie's chamber of commerce based on Zhen Yao, Su Idiot, and Zhang Shiping began to lay contacts in the Western Regions, or recruit some Hu businessmen from the Western Regions to join in, and in the previous life, he did this, and in this life, he was naturally handy, and the bride price sent by some princes was sold to the Western Regions by the Chamber of Commerce at a high price, and some treasures sent by the Western Regions were sold to the Central Plains.
In this way, the left hand in and the right hand out, and this time it is still a business without capital, but in less than a month, the money obtained by the imperial court is enough to cover the taxes collected in three years during the Ling Emperor period, which is national.
Liu Xie had already ordered the Chamber of Commerce to form a caravan to go to the countries of the Western Regions to buy grain, but the road was a little tortuous, and it was necessary to bypass Xiliang and transport it to Chang'an through the Hetao.
In addition, Liu Xie also asked the caravan to pay attention to collecting the seeds of some high-yield crops in the Western Regions countries to enrich the grain production of the Han Dynasty.
If these belongings want to be turned into grain and transported back, Liu Xie estimates that it will be the fastest, and it will have to wait until next year, which is still a smooth situation, after all, the countries of the Western Regions stand side by side, and not all of them will sell the face of the big man, but these grains, as long as half of them can be transported back, it is enough to make Liu Xie's life a lot more comfortable, and many things that have been planned can be implemented.
Time passed unconsciously in this busyness, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day before Liu Xie's wedding.
The weddings and funerals of the Han Dynasty were not cumbersome, but that referred to the common people, and when it came to the royal family, especially the emperor's wedding, even if the area controlled by the royal family was now only Guanzhong, the emperor was still the emperor, and everything was done in accordance with the highest specifications at that time.
Before dawn the next day, Liu Xie was suddenly energetic by the imperial sister-in-law who suddenly became energetic and Cai Yan, who was invited over, and a group of uterine girls ran from here to there like puppets.
According to the ancestral rule, it is necessary to worship the emperors of the past dynasties, starting from Liu Bang's father's generation, and worshipping until the spirit emperor Liu Hong, a series of cumbersome rituals have taken up two hours, and when Liu Xie came out, the sun had risen high.
Originally, this worship should have been presided over by the elders of the royal family, but after the rebellion of Dong Zhuo and Li Guo, the Chang'an royal family, except for Liu Xie and Dumiao, was either kicked out of the court or disappeared.
Although it is a bit far, in terms of generation, it is still Liu Xie's elder.
After paying homage to the previous emperors, Liu Xie was surrounded by a group of people and went to Lu Bu's mansion to greet his relatives, but was stopped by Guo Jia pulling Zhao Yun, Tai Shici and others.
"What are you trying to do" Liu Xie glared, and he had a bad premonition, these people didn't want to make trouble for him, the emperor.
"Your Majesty, today is a day of great joy, you want to marry this beautiful lady and get through the pass of your mother's family."
Guo Jia said with a smile.
"When did you become Lingju's mother's family," Liu Xie looked at Guo Jia with a black line.
"It's not important."
Guo Jia smiled and said.
"Say, how can Zhen Yao welcome his relatives."
Liu Xie looked at Guo Jia and snorted.
"It's up to my junior sister to talk about this."
Guo Jia pulled Cai Yan over and blocked him in front of Liu Xie, Liu Xie's cannibalistic gaze made him a little unbearable.
"See Your Majesty as a concubine." was pushed hard by Guo Jia, and was almost pushed directly into Liu Xie's arms, Cai Yan's face was a little feverish.
"Sister Zhaoji, how can you" Liu Xie could only smile bitterly, he could still use his gaze to intimidate Guo Jia, but to Cai Yan, he couldn't be fierce.
"Your Majesty, this is a custom in the Guanzhong area, Your Majesty must serve a song or drink a bowl of spirits to pass the customs."
Cai Yan was slightly blessed and said warmly.
"This" Liu Xie glared, and said for a while: "If I say that Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the River Island, My Fair Lady, the gentleman is good, is it considered to be passed" Cai Yan smiled and said nothing, but in this smile, the pressure on Liu Xie was too great, and he swore that he would never ask for a talented woman if he asked for his wife again in this life, it was purely to find guilt, well, why do you want to say it again "It's still a drink."
Liu Xie is self-aware, he can plagiarize some later poems, but there are only a few poems he knows, and there are no suitable ones, and now he can only consider himself unlucky.
"Okay, Your Majesty is arrogant" Guo Jia brought a tray from the maid's hand in a blink of an eye, and there was a bowl of sake on the tray, the strong aroma of wine, just a smell, Liu Xie knew that this thing was now a famous hero wine in Guanzhong.
Liu Xie had a feeling of digging his own grave, he knew that he should not have made the hero wine out in the first place.
"Your Majesty, please use it."
Cai Yan brought the wine bowl over and handed it to Liu Xie.
"This" Liu Xie's face was a little bitter, he had absolute confidence in the amount of alcohol he had, and when he drank wine, he would not play tricks was hesitating, but saw Cai Yan squeezing his eyes at him and looking at the wine bowl.
It's greasy Liu Xie nodded quietly, took the wine bowl, glanced at Cai Yan again, and saw that she glanced at herself, and couldn't help but be grateful, it seems that this wine has moved her hands and feet, although it smells fragrant, but it should be full of water underneath. took a deep breath, and in Guo Jia's applause, he tilted his head and poured a bowl of wine.

"Cough" A thick scorching heat surged up from the cavity and rushed straight to the top of his head, Liu Xie knew that he had been tricked, he raised his head and glared at him fiercely, but it was Cai Yan's innocent eyes.
On the day of great joy, Lao Tzu endured it, don't be planted in my hands in the future The heart was vicious, and his face was already flushed, but he didn't feel too drunk, and it seemed that the amount of alcohol in his previous life had been left behind.
Accompanied by the waiter, Liu Xie first met his future father-in-law, that is, Lu Bu, as the Son of Heaven, he didn't have to worship anyone alive, just a symbolic salute, under the leadership of Lu Bu, Yan and Diao Chan pulled Lu Lingju, who was dressed in a red robe, in front of Liu Xie.
"Your Majesty" In front of Lu Bu's main hall, Lu Bu brought Lu Lingju to Liu Xie's side with a serious face, bowed slightly and said: "Although there is a difference between the monarch and the minister, the minister only has this one daughter, after today, although he is married into the royal family, there is a difference between dignity and inferiority, but the minister will always be his father." ” With a little warning and a little reluctance, Liu Xie could see that Lu Bu really loved his daughter.
"Don't worry, don't worry, you don't have any jokes" Liu Xie stood up straight, stretched out his hand to grab Lu Lingju's palm, which was a little rough because of his perennial practice of guns, and nodded solemnly: "In this life, as long as the concubine does not exceed the etiquette, I will give her everything." ” "The auspicious time has arrived" outside the door, the voice of the master of ceremonies sounded.
"Father and mother take care."
Lu Lingju looked at his parents with some reluctance, although before this, he had fantasized about marrying into the palace countless times, but at this moment, they would be two families in the future, and his heart suddenly gave birth to reluctance to his parents, and his eyes were a little red.
"Don't cry, my daughter Lu Bu, can't shed tears," Lu Busen said.
"Huh" Lu Lingju had to hold back.
Liu Xie was a little speechless, he naturally could see that Lu Bu was also very reluctant to give up this daughter, but at this moment, he was forced to be majestic, which made Liu Xie a little funny and a little moved, and sure enough, as Li Ru and Guo Jia said, what can tie Lu Bu the most is not glory and wealth, not grand ambition and hegemony, but the love of children.
In Lu Lingju's reluctant footsteps, Liu Xie took Lu Lingju to the dragon bowl, all this was just foreplay before, and then the official wedding, I heard that it would be more cumbersome. t1706231537:
