The wedding of Lu Bu and Cai Yan was almost completely copied from later Christian wedding ceremonies. The fundamental purpose was to allow the Tongtian Cult to fully involve the daily lives of the Han people. Whether it is the birth of a child, the child is in the mid-month period, the marriage, or the death, the priests of the Tongtian Cult will be present to convey the blessings of the gods, just like Christianity, like a religion that is about to surpass Christianity, so that the people will be happy about this religion from the time they are grateful for the care of the priests.

Lu Bu also made up several words for this, "Love Pangu God is like loving our grandfather, love God Huaxu God, like loving our grandmother, love God Fuxi God, like loving our father, love God Nuwa, like loving our mother, love Tongtian Buddhism, like loving our family." "Doing good and entering heaven, doing evil and going to hell, doing good and evil are all in your thoughts. Tongtian Buddhism warmly reminds you, please cherish good fate."

Lu Bu remembered the tragic encounter of Christianity being severely questioned by science in later generations and was constantly retreating, so he took it as a warning and laid the foreshadowing in the Tongtian Sutra in advance. Later, science flourished like the 21st century, and people could understand some of the words in the Tongtian Sutra, and then suddenly realized that Pangu opened up the world and created the world as a big bang, Nuwa created humans as cloning technology, and the gods were indeed gods, and the technology in heaven was leading the world for two thousand years.

Of course, Lu Bu and Cai Yan were still a little ashamed and uneasy when they held such a wedding, because the Christian wedding they copied was strictly monogamous, while Lu Bu had a good wife and a flat wife and four concubines. Cai Yan was only a flat wife.

Fortunately, Lu Bu did not stipulate that the monogamy system must be required in the teachings of the Tongtian Sect. This is not only because the current national conditions of the Han Dynasty are not allowed. It is also because the future development of the Han Dynasty is not allowed. The Han Dynasty will annex many surrounding foreign races in the future. Those men from the foreign race will either die tragically under the iron cavalry of the Han Dynasty or surrender to become slavery of the Han Dynasty. However, those women from the foreign race were taken in by the Han men because of their beauty and reproductive abilities. There are more women and fewer men, and it is very inappropriate to engage in strict monogamy.

Cai Yan naturally didn't know that this holy wedding was based on strict monogamy. She just felt that Lu Bu held her wedding so grandly, which shows her position in Lu Bu's heart. Cai Yan's heart was filled with happiness, without a trace of dissatisfaction.

The only thing held in the Tower of Heaven was a symbolic ceremony, and the remaining procedures were handled according to the folk traditions of the Han Dynasty.

The entire General's Mansion, even the entire central castle, and even the entire Yecheng were decorated with lanterns, with red characters of joy posted everywhere, and big red lanterns hung high. There was a joyful scene everywhere. The past year was the most comfortable and safe year for the people of Yecheng. Although there were rebellions from aristocratic families and the attacks of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou were quickly wiped out by the Central Army. With the effective implementation of Lu Bu's active economic recovery policies, the people of Yecheng lived a much more prosperous life. In more than a year, they had achieved the goal of having enough food and clothing agreed with them. The people of Yecheng, who were full of gratitude, heard that Lu Bu got married, all hung the characters of joy and big red lanterns all over the city to bless Lu Bu's marriage together. Many people even took out their own red eggs, fresh meat and silk to come to the General's Mansion to congratulate Lu Bu.

At first, Lu Bu ordered the housekeeper to take no goods sent by the people. Later, it could not resist the enthusiasm of the people. Many of them placed a basket of gifts at the gate of the General's Mansion, said blessings to the gate and turned around and left. Later, the open space in front of the General's Mansion was full of baskets covered with red cloth.

The people of Yecheng were unable to refuse their affection, so Lu Bu had to change his original plan and no longer stick to the court and celebrate within the Central Army. Instead, he set up a flowing mat in the streets and alleys of Yecheng, so that all people could have a wedding banquet. Every person who came to congratulate him could receive one hundred coins. In fact, this hundred coins were enough to match the basket of eggs, fresh meat, and silk. Lu Bu's generous behavior made his image taller in the eyes of the people.

The Tongtian Cult wedding was held in the Tongtian Tower in the morning. The holy wedding witnessed by four gods. From noon, a traditional wedding was held in the General's Mansion. The General's Mansion was not as transparent as the Tongtian Tower. In addition to the court ministers, senior generals of the Central Army, and relatives and friends from both sides, Lu Bu selected 900 people from the people of Yecheng to participate in the wedding. This is also an implementation of Lu Bu's usual people-friendly style.

Because Lu Bu was the General of the Cavalry who was in charge of military power in the Yecheng court, the Shangfu of the Emperor Liu Bian of the dynasty, the commander of the Central Army of the world's No. 1 Army, the Supreme Lord of the World's No. 1 religion, and the Supreme Lord of the World's No. 1 religion, and the No. 1 True Person of the Yecheng court. Cai Yan himself was Shang Yi, one of the six female officials in the palace, and was also the daughter of Cai Yong, the Grand Tutor who was one of the ten auxiliary ministers and the third ministers of the Supreme Court. This strong combination made the civil and military generals of the entire Yecheng court come to support the general. Although some ministers of the neutral aristocratic families were very dissatisfied with Lu Bu's dominance of military power, they had to smile and bring heavy gifts to congratulate them.

As for the gifts sent by officials, ministers and noble families, Lu Bu did not reciprocate like ordinary people, but instead accepted them without hesitation. Lu Bu's direct subordinates, whether in the army or in the court, told them in advance that they did not need to give gifts, just come over to drink. Therefore, many generals only brought a few jars of good wine or came empty-handed. They all found their own seats to sit down and drink, and did not ask Lu Bu to persuade him more, and everyone drank very happily.

After finishing the cumbersome etiquette, Lu Bu let go of the toast with the guests present. Lu Bu originally intended that everyone should be toasted. After celebrating the honorable guests at the tables in front of him, Lu Bu realized that there were more than 3,600 guests present. If everyone toasted a glass, they would probably have to drink dozens of kilograms of wine. ** It was worth a thousand gold in a moment. He finally got Cai Yan and could not welcome her first night in a drunken way. He was so stupid that he was so useless.

Lu Bu toast a glass of ministers who were second-rank officials or above in the court, a glass of generals and commanders in the army, and an elders among the relatives of both sides. The remaining 3,000 people were all one table at a time. Even so, Lu Bu still had to drink more than three pounds of wine. This wine was brewed by Lu Bu's orders. It was a distilled liquor. The alcohol content seemed to be only more than twenty degrees, but it was far better than the fine wine brewed elsewhere in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Lu Bu could drink four pounds. Others, even Dian Wei, who was the most drinkable, got drunk after drinking less than three pounds, because they had drunk low-alcohol liquor that had not been distilled before.

A large area of ​​drunkenness fell to the ground and unconscious, Lu Bu quickly asked someone to help them back. After the song ended, Lu Bu should do the job seriously.

Under the leadership of the maid, Lu Bu strided with his head and prepared to fulfill his final obligation.

When he came to the bridal chamber where the red and red candles were lit, looking at the red and happy paper-cut paper pasted on the wall, Lu Bu couldn't help but smile. He was so satisfied with himself. Cai Yan, a talented and beautiful woman who had made him think about day and night for a long time, was finally married by him.

Cai Yan was sitting shyly on the bed with a red scarf.

Lu Bu walked quickly to the bed and gently lifted the red veil on Cai Yan's head. Under the red candlelight, Cai Yan looked particularly charming. Her slightly powdered face was radiant and her beautiful eyes were looking forward to it, which made Lu Bu feel so excited. Before this, he had always admired Cai Yan's literary talent and ignored her beauty slightly. Now, it seems that her beauty is no less than Diao Chan and Du Xiuniang.

Lu Bu could no longer hide his overflowing happiness, and smiled and held Cai Yan's blushing little face: "Madam!"

Cai Yan's face was flushed. She didn't know why she was so shy tonight. She remembered that she wasn't so shy in front of him. Could it be because of the wonderful thing that was about to come?

Lu Bu remembered that Cai Yan was not able to eat with the groom on this day like the bride in later generations. She probably hadn't eaten anything. How could she do it? How could she stand her own conquest?

Lu Bu quickly instructed the maid to prepare Cai Yan's favorite meal.

Cai Yan was surprised when he heard the names of several dishes reported by Lu Bu: "Husband, how do you know that I like to eat these?"

Lu Bu smiled and said, "Know yourself and your enemy and win every battle. The art of war can not only be used on the battlefield, but also on the love field."

Cai Yan shyly beat Lu Bu's broad chest: "Husband, you are so good at using troops. Even you have captured me." Cai Yan did not mention that Lu Bu had six or seven prisoners, because she knew Lu Bu's personality. At present, Lu Bu only had her eyes and only her in his heart, so he would not think of other women. If she mentioned it, it would remind Lu Bu of them, and it would also leave a bad impression of jealousy on Lu Bu.

Lu Bu laughed loudly. A beautiful woman may not necessarily make people happy, but a beautiful and intelligent woman will make men happy, and not only physically but also spiritually happy.

Not long after, the maid brought six dishes, all of which Cai Yan liked to eat. Lu Bu sent the maid out, and picked up the dishes with chopsticks and delivered them to Cai Yan's cherry mouth.

Cai Yan's beautiful eyes were wide open, and he looked at Lu Bu in surprise: "Husband, you are the General of the Cavalry, why are you serving women?"

Lu Bu laughed and said, "In ancient times, Zhang Chang painted his eyebrows for his wife, but now he has a husband. I will pick up food for you. This is the private life of the couple. Why bother with their status? Madam, see if the dish is cooked to your taste."

During the reign of Emperor Xuan of Han, the imperial court of Jingzhao, Zhang Chang, was a good official and had clear rewards and punishments. He never tolerated the evil people when he met them. When the court discussed major events, he quoted scriptures and handled appropriately. The ministers admired him very much. However, Zhang Chang did not have the dignity of being an official and often drew eyebrows on his wife at home. Legend has it that Zhang Jingzhao's eyebrows were very charming, and some ministers used these things to report to Zhang Chang. The emperor asked Zhang Chang if there was any such thing. Zhang Chang replied: "I heard that intimate things between husband and wife in the boudoir are even more excessive than drawing eyebrows." (To be continued)
