Chapter 332: Heavenly Chanyu

There was turmoil in all parts of the Han Dynasty, and heroes from all walks of life were starting their own careers. Cao Cao and Liu Bei were both acting in the name of the emperor to seek greater development for themselves, while Sun Ce was also stirring up trouble in Jiangdong.

Apart from them, Yuan Shu was holding the imperial seal in his hand, struggling every day over whether to proclaim himself emperor and establish a country; Han Sui and Ma Teng were enjoying ruling a certain area; Lu Bu was entrenched in Xuzhou and preparing to fight a powerful enemy; while Liu Biao was wary of the newly arrived Liu Bei and was thinking about how to drive Liu Bei out of Jingzhou.

Even among the ordinary people, Lu Meng, a wild believer of naturalism, was unwilling to be lonely and wanted to lead the masses to create a new world far away from Xuanxia.

All heroes in the world are trying to strengthen themselves as much as possible in this era of great contention. There is no place where there is no struggle.

Only the scenery of Xuanxia in the north is unique.

The great victory in the decisive battle in the north brought great joy to Xuanxia. Even the most ordinary people of Xuanxia truly regarded themselves as part of Xuanxia, ​​because every citizen of Xuanxia knew that their tiny destiny was closely related to Xuanxia, ​​and the two sides could not be separated.

If Xuan Xia encounters a crisis, all their current lives may be reduced to ashes.

Only when Xuanxia continues to grow stronger and stronger, and only when the Han Dynasty is completely destroyed, can the people of Xuanxia produce with peace of mind and no longer have to worry about their lives being disrupted.

Now, Xuanxia is moving steadily towards this goal. In addition to production, the people also look forward to the day when the imperial court will be able to rule the entire Chinese land and truly achieve complete victory.

The huge results brought about by this great victory are enough to make every Xuanxia citizen ecstatic.

After winning the first battle, although most of Xuanxia's main forces withdrew to Youzhou due to the reduced demand for war, there were still considerable troops carrying out the advancement of the conquest of Qingzhou, Bingzhou, and the southern counties of Jizhou.

Wherever the Yellow Turbans pass, it will become real Xuanxia land. Although it may take considerable time to completely occupy these places, it is a foregone conclusion. The people are all happy for Xuanxia's expansion of territory.

However, this is not the biggest happy event in Xuanxia recently. What makes everyone in Xuanxia even happier is that the time has finally come for their beloved and respected Master Tianshi to start a family and build a career.

Xu Chen, the Heavenly Master of the Natural Religion, the mentor of the new era, the leader of the Tribute Alliance, the common leader of the Yellow Turbans throughout the world, and regarded as a great sage by millions of people, has finally reached the time to solve his personal problems.

When the Yellow Turbans were defeated and Xu Chen took over Wang Dang's remnant troops, he was just a boy of about fifteen years old.

Now, more than ten years have passed, and he is now twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. Although he is still in his prime and still young and promising, he is not that young anymore. Both in terms of age and temperament, he has become a mature man.

Despite this, Xu Chen's wedding was actually quite simple to organize. It was only a brief message published in the newspaper that was known to the world. Apart from that, there were no other additional actions. Even the marriage ceremony was just the procedure for ordinary families.

After all, Xuanxia is not an imperial kingdom, so there is no need to waste public resources on private affairs.

Xu Chen invited business friends to a wedding banquet, and it went on simply. Although the wedding arrangements of ordinary people were not complicated, they were not easy either, and many procedures were similar to the customs of later generations.

After such a wedding banquet, the guests had dispersed at night, and red candles were flickering in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Although there were still servants busy at work, the atmosphere had completely returned to calm.

Xu Chen walked to the main house, slowly opened the door, and immediately a faint fragrance hit his nose.

Turning around, I saw a pretty figure sitting quietly on the edge of the bed. Their eyes collided in the light of the red candle, and ambiguity gradually arose.

After closing the door, Xu Chen came to the table, where some desserts and drinks were already placed. He smiled and said, "The wedding ceremony is complicated and strict. Even I can hardly bear it. I'm afraid Wenji is even more tired. Why don't you come and eat something?" Cai Wenji's heartbeat quickened involuntarily. She was obviously not a young woman anymore, but when she was with Xu Chen, she always had this kind of emotional feeling that she had never had before.

Perhaps, it is because the person in front of me is my own choice, a true combination of feelings, and not the result of fate manipulated by others, that I can have such a joyful and shy reaction.

However, if my father knew what happened to me today, he would probably bless me.

When facing important events in her life, Cai Wenji's thoughts became mixed. Thinking back to when her father Cai Yong often studied the natural sciences, she couldn't help but sigh at the fate that played tricks on her.

Who could have thought at that time that Xu Chen, who wrote this book, would actually become his own destination.

Coming back to her senses, Cai Wenji smiled brightly at Xu Chen. Although she was shy, she was not pretentious. She gladly accepted Xu Chen's invitation and sat down at the table.

Afterwards, the two of them began to eat the desserts on the table. The only sound in the room was their quiet conversation. From time to time, they could hear each other's laughter. The atmosphere was extremely calm and relaxed, as if two friends who had been looking at each other for a long time were having a leisurely conversation.

Cai Wenji was the most talented woman in the Han Dynasty, with both talent and beauty, while Xu Chen was a soul from the future. Both of them were deeply attracted to each other. Otherwise, their relationship would not have progressed so quickly. Everything just happened naturally. Being shy was not what they liked.

"Although our marriage is a private matter, I am the prime minister after all, so such a private matter will inevitably have some political attributes. The same is true for you as the prime minister's wife. There will be a banquet for the alliance envoys tomorrow. They are all here to celebrate the wedding, so you will inevitably have to attend with me."

After eating, Xu Chen felt full, clapped his hands and talked about tomorrow's affairs with a smile.

Cai Wenji naturally had no objection. She nodded slightly and stopped eating.

"Xuan Xia won a great victory in this battle, and the attitudes of many members of the alliance towards Xuan Xia have also changed. In the past, they mostly focused on benefits and false flattery, but I heard that this time, the envoys came and talked, most of them called my husband Tian Chanyu, which is much more respectful than before."

Talking about this, Cai Wenji couldn't help but smile. No one wanted to see a strong Central Plains more than her. Only when the Central Plains was strong enough could it suppress the barbarians outside the territories and avoid the tragedy she had seen from the two capitals to the frontier.

Now, Xuan Xia's strength has obviously been recognized, and the barbarians outside the Great Wall have begun to gradually change from succumbing to interests to respecting the use of force.

Upon hearing this, Xu Chen just smiled and didn't feel particularly proud.

After all, this kind of thing is not that difficult. As long as the princes in the late Han Dynasty could stabilize one side, they could be stable and defeat small foreign countries or tribes. This is not worth bragging about.

However, the title they gave to Xu Chen surprised him a little. With his current strength, the title "Tian Chanyu" was still a bit exaggerated.

"It seems that the small countries and tribes outside the region have also noticed the trend, otherwise they would not have made such a show of goodwill. If even they can feel it, the knowledgeable people in the south should understand it better. I just don't know whether the Han people are willing to follow the trend or go against it."

After saying this, Xu Chen shook his head again: "Forget it, it doesn't matter what they think. The world is in an unstoppable trend. Those who follow it will prosper and those who go against it will perish. No one can reverse it."

At this point, Xu Chen looked at Cai Wenji, his eyes flashed, and he smiled and said, "Compared to all this, we should rest early. We can't delay the meeting with the envoys of the alliance tomorrow."

When Cai Wenji heard this, her face turned slightly red and she nodded slightly.

Soon, the red candle went out, and only the faint sound of whispers could be heard in the room.
