The most arrogant in history

Chapter 254 Wedding!

"Our son will at least be a local lord when he grows up. How can he be a mere county magistrate?"

Ye Kun smiled: "Don't worry, I won't let my son down."

It would take another ten years for Huang Jingzu to grow up.

More than ten years later, Ye Kun felt that he should unify the world, right?

Ye Kun stayed in Chongqing for five days.

While accompanying Yuejuan, Wen Axiu and others, he checked the construction progress in Chongqing.

Everyone here is our own people, including a large number of immigrants from Pingye County and Dongba County. They are efficient and the progress is fast.

The scale of the newly built city was five times larger than the previous Jiangzhou.

There are also water-powered workshops, spinning mills, weaving mills, and silk-boiling factories outside the city, which process the hemp silk and raw silk from silkworm cocoons produced nearby.

In addition, to the west of Chongqing, towards Chengdu, there are four parallel mountain ranges that block traffic.

In the past, there were only mountain trails that could be used for walking but not for vehicles.

Large quantities of goods have to be transported either by water or by taking a detour of hundreds of miles.

There are also many residents in the mountains, making travel extremely inconvenient.

Ye Kun ordered the garrison troops and civilians to follow the original mountain paths, cut through the small mountain ranges, and build a highway that was wide enough for three carriages to run side by side.

The parallel mountain ranges in this area were later called the East Sichuan Parallel Ridges and Valleys.

These mountains are not very tall, with a relative altitude of only a few hundred meters.

If we use the method of reducing peaks and filling valleys and take it slowly, we can still get through.

If you are lucky, you may even find some minerals during the mountain excavation process!

After staying in Chongqing for five days, Ye Kun went to Changsha.

This time, Ye Kun brought a lot of gold and silver gifts, which were considered as Wei Caiqin's betrothal gifts.

As soon as they entered Changsha, they saw flags waving in front of them, and the second son Wei Kang came in person with an army of 3,000 to greet them.

Ye Kun dismounted and greeted him, clasping his fists and saying, "Thank you, Second Young Master, for coming to greet me in person. I am overwhelmed with joy!"

"Master Ye, you are too polite."

Wei Kang smiled, stepped forward, took Ye Kun's hand, and whispered: "Lord Ye is really brave. You dare to come to Changsha with only a few hundred people. Aren't you afraid that I will take the opportunity to detain you and seize your Yizhou?"

This second young master's IQ is beyond help.

Shangguan Jifu had a large number of troops at his side, watching with eager eyes, and were eager to attack at the slightest command.

The second young master is still thinking about Yizhou, what a foolish dream!

Even if Ye Kun died here, Yizhou would belong to Shangguan Jifu, not Wei Kang!

Ye Kun smiled faintly and whispered:

"For a beauty, what is the kingdom? Your sister Caiqin is extremely beautiful and charming. Even if I die in Changsha, I will come to see her once. Second Master, you are definitely my brother-in-law, and I believe you will not take Yizhou from me."

"You..." The second young master glared at Ye Kun and sneered:

"My sister has really good taste. She's attracted to a passionate person like you."

"Your sister has a good taste, and I won't let her down." Ye Kun kept smiling.

From the perspective of those around them, Ye Kun and the second young master had a very good relationship, holding hands, talking and laughing.

Wei Kang was in charge of the task of picking up the bride, so he didn't dare to act too much and just accompanied Ye Kun forward.

We were delayed for a day on the road and arrived in Changsha City the next day.

The eldest son Wei Ning was waiting outside the city to greet him.

The reception standard is very high.

Of course, Ye Kun is now the governor of Yizhou. Putting aside the health of his new son-in-law, he can afford this reception standard.

When he arrived in Changsha City, Ye Kun first paid a visit to Wei Dingshan.

After being treated by the genius doctor Xia Tuo, Wei Dingshan felt much better. He took Ye Kun's hand and said with a smile:

"My dear son-in-law, we are a family from now on. I built Panshui Pavilion for you and Qin'er in Changsha City. It can be regarded as your wedding place. In the future, when you and Qin'er come back, you can live here for a long time."

Ye Kun was stunned: "Panshui Pavilion?"

"Yes, Panshui Pavilion." Wei Dingshan nodded and said with a smile:

"There is a poem that goes, 'Thinking of the joy of Panshui, I pick some celery.' Qin'er's name is Caiqin, so I named the newly built attic Panshui Pavilion. Legend has it that in ancient times, when scholars passed the imperial examination and went to the Confucius Temple to worship, they had to go to the Pan Pond beside the Dacheng Gate to pick some celery and put it on their hats. My dear son-in-law, you must know this story, right?"

Ye Kun chuckled: "I really don't know this. Lord Wei is very knowledgeable. I am ashamed to be inferior to him."

Wei Dingshan laughed: "I have heard for a long time that my dear son-in-law can speak eloquently and write thousands of words at a time. It turns out that there are some allusions that I don't know."

Ye Kun's face turned red and he stammered with a wry smile.

What's the point of being able to speak eloquently and write thousands of words? It's just remembering some poems to show off.

When it comes to really studying and talking about the Three Tombs and Five Classics and the Nine Hills and Eight Ropes, Ye Kun is no match for Wei Dingshan!

After the greetings, Ye Kun presented the gift list.

Wei Dingshan called Wei Caiqin over and said with a smile: "Among these gifts, I will accept the ones given to me. As for the rest, Qin'er, please move back to Panshui Pavilion. That is your little home."

Wei Caiqin changed back into her female attire, her face full of shyness, and smiled at Ye Kun: "My father has prepared a lot of dowry for me in Panshui Pavilion. Brother Ye, why don't you thank my father?"

Ye Kun stood up and bowed: "Thank you, father-in-law. For me, no matter how much dowry I have, it is not as precious as Miss Caiqin. I promise you, Lord Wei, that I will never let Miss Caiqin down in this life."

"As long as you are doing well, that's all."

Wei Dingshan was very happy and arranged a dinner reception.

After dinner, Wei Dingshan asked Ye Kun to rest and whispered:

"Two days from now will be an auspicious day for you and Qin'er to get married. After you get married, I will also announce something important."

Announcing something big?

Ye Kun thought about it for a moment and understood.

The big thing Wei Dingshan was talking about must be about the successor.

I just don’t know whether he will hand over the territory to Wei Ning or Wei Kang.

Resting in the inn at night, Ye Kun tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Wei Caiqin is in Panshui Pavilion, but we can’t meet each other. It’s really frustrating!

The next morning, Ye Kun changed into festive clothes, took gifts, and went to Panshui Pavilion accompanied by Wei Ning and Wei Kang.

Panshui Pavilion covers an area of ​​more than ten acres, with high-rise buildings connected to each other, front and back gardens, and waterside pavilions.

Ye Kun was very surprised.

Wei Dingshan has already fallen, Jingzhou and Xiangyang have all fallen, and he is taking refuge in Changsha, yet he is still wasting money on large-scale construction projects. His destiny has really come to an end!

You know, even after Ye Kun conquered Dongba County and the thousand-mile Yizhou, he didn't dare to build a toilet for himself!

In addition, Wei Dingshan's two sons were naughty and lived a luxurious life, and they must have caused a lot of harm to the people of Changsha.

I'm afraid that Wei Dingshan's popular support has completely collapsed.

Wei Caiqin was not very worldly-wise and was quite happy. She asked her two brothers to accompany Ye Kun while she checked the betrothal gifts in the back hall to see if there was anything interesting inside.

Ye Kun just drank a cup of tea, and then, accompanied by the two young masters, went to the prefectural government to meet with officials of all ranks and gentry under Wei Dingshan.

Then it was time to drink.

Ye Kun drank to cope with the situation while looking at these people coldly, feeling sad in his heart.

The country is about to perish, the mountains and rivers are in shambles, but they are still in a state of confusion and holding banquets!

September 2nd is the wedding day of Ye Kun and Wei Caiqin.

The city of Changsha is decorated with lights and is full of joy.

Officials at all levels sent gifts and lined up in a long queue in front of Panshui Pavilion.

Ye Kun was wearing a bright red suit, with a palace flower in his hat, and he held his hands together to thank all the guests.

Everyone celebrated for another day before sending Ye Kun to the bridal chamber.

The red lights are shining brightly, and the warm fragrance is lingering, refreshing the heart.

Under the red veil, Wei Caiqin was not very shy and looked affectionate.

Ye Kun picked up the wine glass and placed it in front of Wei Caiqin: "Miss Caiqin, we have finally waited for this day. This glass is for you."
