The Three Great Han Dynasties: Awaken Liu Bei with a scolding; you weave mats and sell sandals.

Chapter 158 Meeting the Yuan Family Daughter

"Liu Bei?"

Liu Hong put down the scriptures in his hand, and his face remained calm and composed, as if he didn't care about such a trivial matter at all.

On the timeline of history, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, the three brothers, had been wandering and turbulent all the way through life, but nothing ever happened to them. Even decades later, they were still healthy and vigorous. How could Liu Hong possibly believe that they would fall ill after kneeling for a few days in this small Liuyuan Garden?

He doesn't seem that stupid.

"If you're sick, then we'll call a doctor to take a good look at you. But there's one condition: you absolutely cannot leave that courtyard, or you'll be in big trouble."

Liu Hong said in a cold voice.

He knew in his heart that these subordinates would help Liu Bei in any way they could, after all, Liu Bei would be the future head of the Liu family.

Therefore, Liu Hong, as the current head of the family, must be disciplined when necessary, otherwise, what kind of state will this be in the future? Liu Hong will not be content with that.

It is the lord.

The servant had no choice but to nod in agreement.

As for Liu Yuan, after the doctor came to take a look, Liu Bei and his companions were both amused and exasperated. The time he had promised was probably not far off.

Sure enough, when Liu Hong came down from the court meeting that day, he said, "That little brat finally agreed, so all my time wasn't wasted."

Seeing this, Cui Yan could only give a helpless bitter smile: "Isn't Your Majesty afraid that the young master will resent this?"

,

Liu Hong smiled faintly after hearing this: "I'm doing this for his own good. How could he not know that? If he harbors resentment over such a trivial matter, then the entire Liu family cannot be entrusted to him."

Liu Hong spoke slowly.

Cui Yan was left speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He didn't actually believe Liu Hong was lying, after all, Liu Bei held a high position within the Liu family.

The bottom-up approach has always been very reliable, and that alone is very convincing.

Liu Hong looked at Grand Tutor Yuan Wei and the other two of the Three Dukes, and continued, "Once a date is set, arrange a meeting. At least one meeting is necessary; it would be fair to the young lady."

"It's behind a curtain, and it's in private, so it won't be a problem."

Liu Hong said slowly.

Yuan Wei and Yang Biao were not surprised at all. Moreover, they could see from this that the Liu family was indeed willing to form a marriage alliance with them and did not have any other intentions.

The two families' leaders were naturally more willing, and they said in unison, "We will listen to Duke Weining. General, rest assured, we, the Yang family, will not hold you back."

Liu Hong readily agreed after hearing this.

"Prepare at the General's Mansion for a few days, then come with me to the Yang and Yuan families. As for Grand Tutor Wang Yun's family, we'll go there last."

Liu Hong has now developed some class consciousness, not because he insists on it, but simply because he is adapting to local customs.

Now, what is beneficial to the entire family is naturally the priority, and it is impossible to let others have their way.

"understood."

Liu Bei looked sullen.

Liu Hong couldn't afford to worry about him at the moment. There were a lot of trivial matters in the Liu family that needed to be handled, so what kind of huge emotions could a mere child have?

Liu Hong naturally needed to discuss this matter thoroughly with his wife.

After all, although the decision of marriage is made by these men, the real management still requires the women.

"Only then did my husband remember that Xuande had me as his mother."

In the back garden, Madam Wu looked at Liu Hong with a reproachful gaze, her face also revealing a hint of coquettishness.

Liu Hong was both amused and exasperated by this, so he could only explain the matter further: "You know Xuande's nature. He thinks about restoring the world all day long, but you should know that a person cannot stand firm if he is not ruthless."

Many things were not as easy and straightforward as he had imagined.

If I don't keep a close eye on him, I'm afraid that one day I'll lose control and let him go, and the entire Liu family will truly be ruined in his hands. There are many things I really have to guard against."

Liu Hong explained his predicament, and Wu Shi ultimately preferred to stand on Liu Hong's side, especially since she was well aware of everything Liu Hong had considered for the family.

"You're always right, and I can never win an argument with you. Just don't forget about us, mother and child."

Wu nestled against Liu Hong's chest and whispered.

Liu Hong nodded slightly and made repeated assurances before Wu finally agreed to the matter.

"Congratulations, elder brother! Congratulations on your upcoming marriage and starting a family. This is truly a cause for celebration."

Fortunately, as soon as the matter was settled within the Liu family, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were already beaming with joy. They stepped forward to congratulate him, their words revealing a deep joy that few could match, and a sincere and heartfelt sentiment.

Faced with this situation, Liu Bei felt helpless and waved his hand, saying, "Alright, you two stop teasing me. This marriage is something I've been eagerly waiting for."

As Liu Bei was sighing, Zhang Fei pursed his lips and spoke up from the side, "But does Brother really have no such thoughts at all?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Bei gave an embarrassed smile, momentarily at a loss for words.

indeed.

He had reached the age where he should get married, and to say that Liu Hong forced him to do so would be a huge injustice.

He should also think more about himself; it's not really a mistake.

Faced with Zhang Fei's question, Liu Bei was at a loss for words and fell silent.

When Guan Yu saw this, he smiled faintly, and the faint worry in his heart was put down at this moment. In this way, his elder brother's heartache was cured, and he should no longer have any wild thoughts when he was with his adoptive father in the future, which was extremely gratifying.

Soon the appointed day arrived, and Liu Hong led Liu Bei to the Yuan family, where a carriage rolled in.

Meanwhile, within the Yuan family compound, Grand Tutor Yuan Kui, along with all the other elders of the Yuan family, were present. Each of them wore a faint expression of emotion, and their faces showed great joy at the event.

The order in which each family is visited also has many rules to follow, and one must not lose sight of these rules, otherwise it would become a huge joke.

For example, if we go to Wang Yun's house first, the Yuan family of the Grand Tutor and the Yang family of the Grand Commandant will definitely complain. Such a mistake should never be made under normal circumstances. This is also the rule, etiquette and etiquette between clans.

"Greetings to Duke Weining, greetings to General Xuande."

Yuan Wei stepped forward first to pay his respects, followed by his family members. Others also greeted him, and it seemed that they all got along quite well.
