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

As Liu Yuanqi watched the servants begin to perform these tasks, a faint smile slowly appeared on his face.

Once everything was arranged, he wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, feeling rather tired.

"Do a good job, and you'll get a reward for doing well after the wedding."

Liu Yuanqi spoke loudly, which naturally made the servants overjoyed. They all nodded in agreement, promising to do their jobs well.

As a result, the lively atmosphere of the wedding became increasingly intense.

Liu Zongran was maintaining order at the wedding nearby. As a captain, he was quite adept at handling such matters.

"Father, I'm a high-ranking military officer now, I can't still be doing this kind of thing. If it really doesn't work, you can send me out to suppress bandits, that would be better than this."

Liu Zongran spoke with a frustrated expression.

In front of outsiders.

He was, of course, a captain commanding nearly ten thousand soldiers, but in front of Liu Yuanqi's own father, he was a son for life, and that was unchangeable.

"Your uncle will always be your uncle, and your aunt will always be your aunt. How come now that my son has been promoted and given a title, he's become arrogant and looks down on even his own father?"

"Fine, fine, fine, fine."

Holding the tiger flag, Liu Yuanqi looked his son up and down. At this moment, he spoke with a solemn tone, "After the wedding is over tomorrow, I will have a good discussion with the head of the family to see if we can remove our captain from his post."

"I think Zilong is quite good. Not only did he bring his own family, the Zhao clan of Changshan Zhending, here, but he has always been conscientious in his work. Look at him, he's busy from morning till night, and from night till morning again. When has he ever uttered a single complaint?"

On the contrary, a brat like you, who doesn't know what's important and what's right, is it an insult to you to work for the master of the family?

Liu Yuanqi gave him a stern reprimand; normally, he would never have spoken like that in front of so many people.

But in the near future.

He discovered that since taking up the position of Commandant, his son Liu Zongran had become more and more arrogant, and had lost all trace of his former humility.

This is completely different from the family education that the Liu family has always upheld.

Since this son has such an arrogant mindset, then as his father, he should naturally discipline him. Otherwise, if the Liu family rises any higher in the future, this son's vision will probably only be able to maintain the status quo, and it will be unlikely that he will be able to achieve anything greater.

"Understood, Father."

Liu Zongran was still sensible and didn't take his anger out on the person he was being scolded for.

At that moment, he gave a wry smile, then lowered his head and continued doing his work, looking around carefully to maintain order.

Seeing this, Liu Yuanqi gradually felt relieved and then resumed his work on the various arrangements for the wedding.

Even though he was only marrying a woman from the Cai family as a concubine, he still had to be treated with the proper etiquette.

After all, this was the first noblewoman the Liu family had ever married, and given her status and other factors, they naturally valued her even more, which showed the deep affection between the two families and prevented them from being attacked by other noble families.

The Liu family of Zhuojun should have one or two allies among the gentry. They can't always fight alone; that would be really inappropriate.

As a member of the Liu clan, Liu Yuanqi had considered all of these things thoroughly and would never forget them.

When the auspicious day arrived, after a busy day, the front courtyard was full of guests, the back courtyard was bustling with servants, and all sorts of exquisite dishes were laid out for the banquet. What a magnificent dance of Ye Yunlong, what a talented couple!

On that day, representatives of various aristocratic families and prefects from other prefectures also sent generous gifts, but none of them actually came in person.

There are many intricacies involved, but Liu Shi and Liu Hong didn't seem to care much. If they didn't come today, it wouldn't be so easy in the future.

Gradually, it became late at night.

Liu Hong, dressed in red, looked at Cai Yan in front of him.

Having never met her before, Liu Hong was certain that Cai Yan was extremely beautiful today.

Her skin was like solidified cream, and her lips were like crimson rouge; she looked like the starlight in the sky, a beauty never seen on earth.

Compared to the Xu and Wu families before her, if the Wu family was a white peony and the Xu family was a rose in the wind, then Cai Yan in front of her was a green orange from Tianshan Mountain. It looked sour, but it made people's hearts itch and then they couldn't stop wanting it.

It can be said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and every woman has her own unique charm and brilliance. It is impossible to compare them, and to do so would be to fall short.

"My husband..."

Cai Yan blushed and looked at Liu Hong in front of her, letting out a long sigh of relief.

Although Liu Hong in front of me was already twenty-eight years old, he did not look old as I had imagined. On the contrary, he seemed to be in his prime. In particular, he was well-maintained and looked quite youthful. It was as if he was really no different from that young man.

This secretly pleased Cai Yan.

She could indeed do it for the sake of her family, but if the man she marries is already exceptionally handsome, what's wrong with that?

Naturally, they were overjoyed.

Speaking of this, it must be said that Liu Hong's appearance was indeed exceptional. Even Gongsun Zan in the historical timeline, who could be described as having "the looks of Xu Gong," was probably no less handsome than him.

"lady."

Liu Hong smiled faintly.

After the two drank the nuptial wine, the candles in the house went out, signaling the time for their wedding night.

Tonight, in the bridal chamber, the encounter between the golden wind and jade dew surpasses countless other moments in the mortal world.

They spent a passionate night together, enjoying themselves immensely.

Thus, the Liu family mansion in Youzhou gained another new mistress.

After nearly a month of travel, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and several others arrived in Luoyang, a bustling city, by sheer coincidence.

And by virtue of the name of the Liu family of Youzhou, they have now been included in the genealogy of the imperial family in Luoyang, and are also being carefully remembered by Liu Yan, the clan head.

Therefore, in Luoyang, they could certainly be considered as noble young masters.

Although it was mainly Liu Bei, his sworn brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were incredibly brave and skilled in combat, and most people would not dare to provoke them. They could also be considered as renowned scholars, and were by no means the kind of rough and unruly people who were looked down upon and not accepted by the mainstream of the times, as they were in the historical timeline.

The situations of these two are still completely different.

The former is naturally high and mighty, the epitome of dignity; while the latter has always been disliked and ignored.
