Chapter 4: The Betrothal Banquet
It didn't take long for Mo Wen and Mo Wuregret to walk to the Internal Affairs Mansion, and Mo Wuregret left Mo Wen and walked to the depths of the palace alone.
After Mo Wen changed his clothes, the palace people all dispersed to do their own things, after all, the tedious preparation for the evening court meeting could not be completed in a short time.
"I have to find the third princess first, and I guess I found that I suddenly wanted to marry a stranger, or a famous waste, she must have refused in her heart, and when the time comes, I will be moved by emotion and reason, both sides are against this, and the matter of regretting marriage will definitely become. ”
Mo thought to himself while asking the palace maid about the residence of the third princess. An hour later, I finally found a place.
"The palace is so big, I almost got lost when I found a place" Mo Wen looked up at the palace in front of him, "Moon Xuan, it's quite poetic", and then raised his legs and walked in, his hand hadn't touched the door yet.
"Who are your Excellency, and why did you visit the Moon Pavilion. The door opened, and a young girl met Mo Wen's eyes.
I saw the beautiful and pure, delicate and lovely girl's crystal clear snow skin shimmering with an ivory-like halo, the soft lines of the snow-white skin graceful like a water hibiscus, condensed snow lotus, the stunning and delicate fragrance flushed like fire, the pure and beautiful eyes with thousands of charms were shy and closed, the black and long eyelashes tightly covered the pair of water-cut autumn pupils trembling lightly, and the white and delicate straight jade neck under a pair of soft and round finely shaved shoulders.
"Goo" Mo Wen couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and quickly looked away, "I'll go, it's so beautiful, I almost didn't control myself, and I was blind for twenty-five years of experience"
Xue Wuyue frowned and looked at Mo Wen in front of her, and after noticing the clothes Mo Wen was wearing, she said, "Presumably the prince is Mo Wen from the Zhenguo Mansion, is it not in line with the rules for you and me to meet at this time?"
"Third princess, don't ask that you come here at this time to discuss important matters, and ask Haihan" Seeing that Xue Wuyue guessed her identity, Mo Wen went straight to the point.
Seeing Mo Wen standing in front of the door, Xue Wuyue couldn't think of anything about Mo Wen for a while, afraid that she wouldn't give him face at the engagement banquet?
"Come in and put it," Xue Wuyue felt that there should be nothing else to do except this matter.
As soon as Mo Wen sat down, he saw Xue Wuyue making a cup of tea for herself and putting it in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh, "The third princess has a six-grade soul bone, and she can basically go straight to the realm of Yunling, even if it is a spiritual saint, it is not impossible, such a beautiful and peerless Lingzhou, it must be the goal of countless young talents, and she is knowledgeable, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and even the matter of female celebrity is slightly involved. ”
Xue May's brows began to wrinkle again, "What is worthy of your compliment on me so much, just say it directly"
Seeing that Xue Wuyue was not affected by her own "slander".
Mo Wen had to get straight to the point, "You see that suddenly let the two of us get married, we don't know each other at all, and you are so good, the two of us are obviously not a good match, you must be unwilling, and I don't want to drag you down, or we will go to the emperor to annul the marriage, what do you think?"
Xue Wuyue didn't expect Mo Wen to say this, and her frowning brows tightened
"You don't have to come here to test me, since it is the ancestral system of our royal family and your Zhenguo Gong, I Xue Wuyue will definitely abide by it, no matter what you have been and what will happen in the future, I will marry into the Zhenguo Mansion." Xue Wuyue pursed her lips suddenly.
"Our marriage is not only our personal matter, but also the whole country's affairs, if the state affairs are unstable, the people will be panicked, although I can't compare with the ancestors, but the love for the people of this country will not be less than anyone else, so I won't embarrass you when you get engaged, please go back, no moon will not be sent"
"Uh, how much do you want..."Looking at the closed door in front of him, Mo asked that he wanted to cry, how did Xue Wuyue's brain grow, tentatively, what kind of situation, is his imagination so rich.
"What can I do, is it so difficult to regret marriage?"
"Today's mission has been released, the conduct of men: insist on not saying a word until the end of the engagement feast. The mission rewards 500 points"
"You're the devil, aren't you? Are you sure I'm not playing an online game right now?
There was no way, Mo Wen had to go back the same way and wait for the engagement banquet to begin.
Four hours later, night fell, the palace was brightly lit, and all the ministers, princes and nobles entered the palace from their homes.
"Don't ask what you did in your last life, you can marry the third princess in this life without learning or knowing, it's really jealous... Ahh
"Still talking nonsense, wasn't it enough for me to be beaten up after talking nonsense about the eldest son of the Mo family in the teahouse last time, and now you dare to talk nonsense," the middle-aged man behind Brother Gongzi said angrily
"Dad! Don't ask if it's from the Zhenguo Mansion, our family is from the Weiguo Mansion, they are all from the Guogong, don't you want people to say it?" The third son of the Patriotic Mansion.
"Who cares about you when someone else marries someone from Zhenguogong, and comments on others on the street, is this how I taught you since I was a child?" It was his father Wei Zhiqiu who taught Wei Yang a lesson. "Today's royal day, don't embarrass me, stay good and don't make trouble. ”
Hearing the sound of conversation outside, although it was very small, but with Mo Wen's physique, he could hear it from such a close distance, "What is this?" Mo Wen thought in his heart.
Another hour passed, and the engagement feast officially began.
The contemporary Snow Emperor stood on the main throne and said, "It has been more than 300 years since the establishment of the Snow Country, and the Zhenguo Mansion has been here for 300 years, protecting the country and resisting foreign enemies, and is a meritorious minister..................
Wait until everyone's eyes are focused on themselves and continue: "Today, I will marry my third daughter Xue Wuyue to the eldest prince of the Zhenguo Mansion, Mo Wen, hoping that the two will be together for a hundred years and work together to create a greater prosperous era for our snow country, and the two sides will exchange tokens." ”
Mo Wen looked at the Snow Emperor's impassioned speech in front of the palace, and couldn't help but sigh that like the former school leader, the speech was not only long but also made people want to sleep, and when he heard that he was going to exchange tokens, he looked at his grandfather suspiciously.
Mo Wuregret glanced at Mo and asked, "The jade pendant on your neck is, this is the ancestral token of the Zhenguo Mansion, and it will be taken down and exchanged with the third princess."
"Uh", looking at the jade pendant on his neck, Mo Wen remembered, as if there was a large box of such jade pendants on Mo Rujun's desk, he almost laughed, and hurriedly controlled his expression and continued to look at Mo Wuregret suspiciously.
"What do you see, don't you want your son, don't you want your grandson? "Remember to laugh, don't be bitter"
There was no way to ask, so he had to get up and walk forward, squeezing a smiling face towards the Snow Emperor.
"Sister, do you really want to marry him, I know you don't want to, let's go and talk to my father together, my father loves us so much, I will definitely agree" The thirteenth princess Xue Wuyu persuaded with Xue Wuyue's hand.
"Sister, you are still young and ignorant, when you grow up, you will know why I married him, we as royals can't just take care of ourselves, you know, let go of my sister and be obedient" Xue Wuyue replied dotingly touching Xue Wuyu's head. Waiting for Xue Wuyu to let go of himself, he then slowly walked towards the Snow Emperor.
Seeing the two of them walk in front of him, the Snow Emperor led the two to everyone with a smile on his face, "I, Xue lightly, announced that the Zhenguo Mansion Mo Wen and the third princess of the Snow Country, Xue May, are officially engaged!" After speaking, he gestured to the two with his eyes to exchange tokens.
Seeing that things had developed to this point, Mo Wen had no choice but to take off the jade pendant around his neck and exchange tokens with Xue Wuyue.
Seeing the things in his hand, Mo Wen couldn't help but complain, "If you change your jade pendant for your jade pendant, can't you have some new tricks?" When the two finished exchanging tokens, the Snow Emperor sat back on the throne and talked with the nobles beside him.
It was discovered that the Snow Emperor had left his surroundings. Mo Wen immediately sighed, "Now you just need to find a place to stay until the end", and then found a vacant seat nearby and sat down, silently using the exercise "Qiankun Without a Shadow" to guide his spiritual power to start cultivating.
"The exercises of the Qianyang Continent are divided into four major ladders of heaven and earth, Xuanhuang, of which the heaven level is the highest, which can not only attract the aura of heaven and earth into the body, and run Zhou Tian with its own aura, but also have all kinds of supernatural powers."
"The earth level is second, although there is no supernatural power, but it can introduce the spiritual power of heaven and earth into the body for cultivation, although it does not have the ability to transform 100% like the heaven level, but it is only slightly inferior"
"And the Xuan-level Exercises can only store the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the dantian, and slowly refine the spiritual power suitable for themselves, and the transformation efficiency is inferior to the ground-level exercises. ”
"As for the Huang-level exercises, they can't attract the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the body at all, and can only slowly extract the spiritual power of the outside world through their own spiritual energy as a medium, which is extremely inefficient."
"This exercise of mine can directly attract the two qi of yin and yang into the body, but I can't use the aura of other attributes, and it also has the power to drive shadows, whether it is heaven-level or yellow-level" Feeling the situation when he was cultivating, Mo asked all kinds of doubts in his heart, "I don't know if I can teach it to others"
Seeing Mo Wen sitting on the chair with his eyes closed, looking idle, Wei Yang and many other children of the family were inexplicably in their hearts, and suddenly felt that the feast in front of them was not fragrant.
"This waste has no other skills, but the ability to reincarnate is first-class, I heard that even the body realm is barely tempered now, it is really blind to his good family background" Wei Yang gritted his teeth and muttered.
"Look at you like this, you won't go up and stab Lou Zi, it's just a woman, not to mention that the banquet is almost over now, hold back," said a son-in-law sitting next to Wei Yang
"Hmph, big brother, you are the most talented person in our Weiguo Mansion, the sixth-grade spirit bone in your body, and now you are only sixteen years old with Mo Wen, but you have reached the realm of the seventh grade of the day after tomorrow, and you have already begun to refine your heart, after the heart is refined, when the spiritual power of the whole body gathers the heart, you can enter the innate realm, although it is not as good as Mo Idiot, but it is also one of the best geniuses in our snow country, of course you don't care" Looking at the red-haired man in front of him, Wei Yang replied with a slightly jealous tone
"But I'm not stupid, after a month is the day when the Qianling Sect will accept disciples, and when I worship the Qianling Sect, he will be the one who is jealous."
"Excessive jealousy is not advisable, Wei Yang pays attention to his own heart" Listening to the words of his younger brother full of jealousy in front of him, Wei Chuan put down the teacup and shook his head gently.
"Mission completed, 500 points earned"
Mo Wen, who returned home, heard a familiar voice, but there was no trace of excitement.
"I've been cultivating at the engagement banquet, but my cultivation hasn't grown in the slightest, what's the situation?"
“............”
"Is it possible that I can only increase my cultivation when I exchange the next exercise? Are you afraid that it is not a monkey who invited me to make a joke?"
“............”
