Chapter 307: Motionless
At this time, Cui Zixuan's voice came from outside, "Ah Mi, get out of the car." β
Jiang Mi answered yes and slowly lifted the curtain.
She was in a wide street, and on either side of the street stood two neat rows of servants, and at the end of the handservants, the gate with the words Bolingtri was shining in the sunlight.
This is the main house of the Boling Cui clan?
Jiang Mi couldn't describe this feeling, the mansion stood not far away, obviously it was not more majestic than the Shu Palace, and there was no special decoration, but just standing there quietly, it made people feel breathless.
Jiang Mi didn't know that this feeling was the shock brought by the four words of the thousand-year-old gate valve, and it had nothing to do with whether the house was gorgeous or not. What is really heavy is the meaning of the representation of that house, as well as the bearing that the children in that house have cultivated in hundreds of thousands of years of inheritance.
Cui Zixuan obviously understood the panic that the non-gate valve disciples would have when they came here, so he stepped forward and stood half a step in front of Jiang Mi quietly.
When Jiang Mi was losing his mind, he suddenly saw Cui Zixuan's familiar figure and his smiling eyes, and his confidence increased greatly.
So, she smiled sweetly at Cui Zixuan.
At this time, all the servants and relatives on both sides of the street were looking at Jiang Mi, and when they saw her coming back to their senses so quickly, some nodded invisibly.
At this time, Cui Zixuan said gently: "Let's go." β
Jiang Mi sighed.
So, the two of them stepped forward at the same time and walked towards the gate of the Bolingcui clan.
As they walked, the people on either side were still waiting quietly.
Jiang Mi walked along. While cautiously looking at the servants. At this glance, her face changed: these people in front of her, the male Xuan Ang and the female Xiuya, are white-haired and have the temperament of a superior, where do they look like servants?
Walking behind Jiang Mi, the three mothers were also holding their breath, looking at the nearly 1,000 servants of the Boling Cui family, Mother Gong thought in horror: No wonder the world says that only more than three generations can talk about cultivation, where are these girls like what kind of maids? Simply, they are even more like princesses than my girls.
Engraved at the same time. Li's mother was also looking. She glanced at Jiang Mi, who was standing side by side with Cui Zixuan, and thought in her heart: The girl is really lucky!
Cui Zixuan led Jiang Mi into the gate of the Boling Cui clan.
There were also some people waiting inside the gate.
Among these people, there are men and women, old and young. Each one has its own aura. Each one makes people dare not look at it at first sight. Everyone's eyes are full of staring, but they are elegantly arrogant.
Every man here is more like an emperor than the Shu Emperor and the Nanping Emperor Jiang Mi has seen!
Is this the bearing of the children of the gate valve? It makes people break their hearts at first sight? Let people be ashamed of themselves at first sight?
Jiang Mi was secretly frightened. But he didn't know that no matter how noble the disciple of the gate valve, if he was willing, it would be a breath that would make people feel like a spring breeze. And the reason why she is now feeling ashamed of herself is just the deliberate pressure from these people.
Cui Zixuan glanced at them, his expression remained unchanged, and after taking Jiang Mi to greet these people one by one, he turned to Cui Ziying, who was standing behind, and asked, "Ziying, is grandmother here?"
Cui Ziying walked out with a smile and said, "Grandmother has been waiting for you." β
Cui Zixuan nodded, and he walked towards the right with Jiang Mi.
At this time, Jiang Mi's legs were really a little weak, and her brain was also noisy, if she hadn't always remembered Cui Zixuan's teachings, she would have lowered her head and shrunk behind Cui Zixuan.
As now, although she holds her head high, but in fact she is weak and panicked, and her feet are fluttering lightly on the ground, where do you remember what scenery to watch and what movement?
I don't know how long it took, Cui Zixuan's voice drifted into her mind from a long distance, "Ah Mi, it's here." β
But it was Cui Zixuan who took her to an attic.
At this time, Cui Zixuan had already noticed Jiang Mi's abnormality, and after he stopped, he glanced at the maids standing in front of the attic, and after the ridicule on the corners of their lips froze, Cui Zixuan looked at Jiang Mi.
He reached out and lightly held Jiang Mi's hand, and after perceiving the **** in her palm, Cui Zixuan became serious.
Looking down at Jiang Mi, Cui Zixuan said in a deep voice: "Ah Mi, look up at me." β
Jiang Mi looked up in response.
Cui Zixuan looked at her gently, and said softly: "Ah Mi, do you think that the most noble person lives longer than the most lowly person?"
Jiang Mi was stunned, she shook her head and said, "Of course not." β
Cui Zixuan chuckled, "Yes, of course not!"
Jiang Mi's eyes on Cui Zixuan's eyes gradually turned clear, and she secretly thought: What do I have to be in awe? Boling Cui's gate valve is the most amazing, and their children will die as well.
At this time, her mind turned to what Cui Ziying said, in the past ten years, the younger generation of the Boling Cui clan has gone eight out of ten, what an amazing death rate is this?
But it turned out that no matter how noble and great a person was, he was just as helpless in the face of death, and even these disciples of the gate valve were even more precarious than ordinary people. Jiang Mi finally felt in his heart that this Boling Cui clan was no big deal.
Seeing that she had regained her composure, Cui Zixuan stepped inside.
When he crossed the threshold, Cui Zixuan said lightly to the maids on both sides: "If you have no dignity, you will be punished!"
All the maids brushed their faces pale, and they bowed down at the same time, and responded in a trembling voice: "Yes!"
The attic where Mrs. Cui is located is very ordinary, so ordinary that everything in it only requires comfort and no luxury.
Cui Zixuan led Jiang Mi into a side room, and looked at an old woman sitting on the couch and looked at him kindly, and he happily called, "Grandmother, my grandson is back." β
The old woman's hair was silver and graceful, she waved her hand at Cui Zixuan, smiled and asked him to sit down, then turned her head to look at Jiang Mi.
Glancing lovingly at Jiang Mi up and down, Mrs. Cui said with a smile: "Child, this will be your home from now on." β
Somehow, the old man's simple words made Jiang Mi extremely moved. I can't wait to be born and die for her.
Jiang Mi didn't know that in this world, there are many high-ranking people who have a special personality charm, he can make you flattered with a sentence, or he can make you panic with a sentence! And this kind of charm formed by the combination of aura and upbringing by various complex and unspeakable means can be cultivated, and there is also a set of formed cultivation mechanisms in the gate valve family.
Cui Zixuan brought Jiang Mi to see her grandmother, it was really a meeting. After a little cold noise, Cui Zixuan took Jiang Mi to say goodbye and leave.
As soon as he came out of the attic, he asked Jiang Mi to be sent to a mansion in Mingzhou City. Other words. Jiang Mi will officially marry from this mansion.
......
The distinguished guests from all walks of life who followed Cui Zixuan. Now they are all gathered in Mingzhou City, and I heard that there are some very important people who are coming one after another.
Because there was still a period of time before the auspicious day of the zodiac to get married, Jiang Mi, as a bride, was suddenly idle.
Although idle. But Jiang Mi couldn't stand still. Seeing that he is about to get married. Listening to the bursts of sheng music coming from the city of Mingzhou. Jiang Mi was very irritable.
After resting in the house for three days, on this day, Jiang Mi really couldn't sit still. She decided to take a walk outside.
After listening to Jiang Mi's request, Mother Gong was about to object, but Mother Li on the side smiled and said, "The girl is bored, just go shopping if you want." She turned to the other two mothers, smiled and said, "Don't worry about it, this is Cui Lang's territory, and the princess will not be in danger." β
Hearing her say this, the other two mothers were also relieved.
Jiang Mi smeared something on her face slightly, put on a gauze hat and went out.
Mingzhou City is close to the sea, and it was not much prosperous in the Tang Dynasty. Until now, many people still don't understand why after the death of the Tang Dynasty, the Boling Cui clan chose Mingzhou City as its station.
Only when Jiang Mi heard these words, he thought in his heart: Mingzhou City is close to the sea, the sea is deep and the water is wide, and there are islands, as long as you make a little preparation, you can have a way out in the event of a military disaster.
Mingzhou City is very large, after the construction of Boling Cui over the years, its prosperity and Shu are compared.
After Jiang Mi turned around, she was hungry, and when she heard the restaurant in front of her singing, she walked in.
After entering the restaurant and ordering two dishes from Xiao Er, Jiang Mi lowered his head and ate.
All around her were guests who were attentive to the play, Jiang Mi had never been interested in opera, and she didn't bother to look at the stage.
At this time, one of the guests at the table behind her said: "The world's opera is flourishing in Chengdu, if it weren't for Cui Lang's wedding this time, we wouldn't be able to enjoy such authentic Shu opera!"
At this time, the man's companion asked, "I heard that the wife Cui Zixuan is going to marry is a broken family with nothing?" Although she is known as a princess, she can't even afford to raise a dowry?"
This person's words aroused everyone's interest, and someone immediately said: "The bride price given by Cui Zixuan is worth the treasury of a country, he is so rich, his woman has no dowry." β
"Nonsense!" an old man retorted: "The dowry represents a woman's worth and status, and if Jiang can't get the dowry, he will always be ridiculed." β
Everyone around responded, "Yes, yes, how can you not get a dowry if you marry a character like Cui Zixuan?" "I don't know what Cui Zixuan likes about her?" "Since this woman can be accepted by the Boling Cui family, she must have her outstanding strengths." Although she can't get the dowry on the table, it's better for you to say less. β
"Yes, yes, it's better to say less. β
"Of course, you have to be careful in this place in Mingzhou, but the more cautious Cui Lang's wedding is, the more distinguished guests from various countries, and the more people will laugh at it in the future......"
The people in the restaurant were still discussing, but Jiang Mi couldn't listen.
She walked out of the restaurant along the corner with her head down, and she didn't have the heart to wander around, and soon returned to the house.
As soon as she returned to her boudoir, Jiang Mi took out the wooden box she had just buried in the wall tiles, Jiang Mi opened the wooden box, thought for a long time, and took out two things, and then put the rest together with the wooden box, carefully and carefully put it into a wooden box selected from Cui Zixuan's bride price.
After cleaning up, Jiang Mi put away the wooden box.
In the blink of an eye, another few days passed.
Since coming to this courtyard, Jiang Mi has not seen Cui Zixuan. She knew that Cui Zixuan was very busy, and nobles were coming every day in Mingzhou City, and she heard that now the people from the five surnames, seven sects, and several major valve factions were almost here.
The more lively the city in Mingzhou, the more Jiang Mi dared not go out. Because almost everyone is talking about her, from her background to her family, from Cui Zixuan's importance to her to Jiang Mi's appearance. At the same time, Jiang Mi could hear someone talk about her dowry every time.
Listening too much, Jiang Mi couldn't bear it anymore this day.
She asked people to mention it to Cui Fu, saying that she wanted to see Cui Zixuan.
Originally, unmarried men and women were not allowed to meet before marriage, especially families like the Boling Cui family were even more strict, but in this troubled world. It's as if all the rules don't matter. Jiang Mi's application was passed as soon as he applied for it.
At that moment, Jiang Mi drove towards Cui's mansion in a carriage. Walking and walking, from between the fluttering car curtains, Jiang Mi saw a somewhat familiar figure. Hey. Isn't this the Wang Yi who came after the former Shu sect? Why did he even rush to congratulate him?
Just a glance. Jiang Mi withdrew it disinterestedly.
This time she came quietly. Naturally, it is also a small door with a declinted angle.
As soon as he entered Cui's mansion, Jiang Mi was led to Cui Zixuan's courtyard by the steward. As he walked, the steward said respectfully, "Young lady, wait here." Childe came back last night, and he should be back tonight. β
Jiang Mi nodded and stepped into the courtyard.
Cui Zixuan's yard is very large, perhaps because he is not at home all the year round, there are not many servants here, and he looks very spacious. Listening to Cui Zixuan's meaning, they will not be here when they get married.
After the steward left, Jiang Mi asked the servants not to follow him, so he wandered around the obviously deserted courtyard.
Well, the study is very large, and there are a lot of books in it, and the way they are placed is familiar to Jiang Mi.
Cui Zixuan's bedroom is also very elegant, with curtains flying inside, and the pillars painted black, which looks extraordinarily spacious and quiet.
The yard is so big that there are not only two gardens of this size, but also a large lake in the garden.
Because there are traces of Cui Zixuan everywhere in this place, Jiang Mi can imagine the figure of Cui Zixuan sitting down and reading here in the past when she sees a smooth stone, and she is lingering.
I don't know how long it took, Jiang Mi transferred to the martial arts training ground. οΌ
Huh, why is there such a big bathhouse in this martial arts training ground?
At this time, Jiang Mi was also tired of shopping, and now that the weather is hot, she is sweating. Those Cui servants, since she told her not to follow, really didn't follow any of them. Of course, Jiang Mi knew that it was because those servants couldn't accept her in their hearts and were willing to be cold to her. However, this kind of coldness is a rare purity for Jiang Mi now.
Jiang Mi's eyes were shining and looking at the pool of clear water in the bathhouse, she stretched out her head to look outside, and when she found that there was no one, she carefully closed the door, took off her clothes and jumped down.
Although the weather is hot now, the water is too cold, and Jiang Mi only soaked for a while before jumping out. She dried her hair and put it back on her clothes, and yawned and walked out of the bathhouse.
I'm so tired, why don't I sleep in this dormitory?
Hmm, this bed is full of Cui Zixuan's smell, and it seems to be very comfortable.
At that moment, Jiang Mi rolled a few times on the big couch, hugged the jade pillow and fell asleep with a smile.
......
Jiang Mi woke up in a whisper.
When he opened his eyes and saw that the sun was still scorching outside, Jiang Mi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
When Jiang Mi jumped off the bed, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and at the same time, Cui Zixuan's voice came, "Get ready!"
"Yes!"
It's really Cui Zixuan! Her Cui Lang is back!
People who are in love are always not seen for a day as if they were every other autumn, Jiang Mi has not seen Cui Zixuan for nearly ten days, and she has long been lovesick. Hearing his voice now, even the bones are crispy.
Excited, Jiang Mi jumped off the bed barefoot, and was about to run out, when her eyes rolled, she relaxed her hands and feet, and quietly opened the door.
Jiang Mi just touched the side of the martial arts training ground, and saw Cui Zixuan standing in the white jade-based martial arts training ground, he took off his clothes, revealing an inverted triangle figure with only obscene pants.
This is the first time Jiang Mi has seen a man half-naked, and he is also the man she loves.
For a moment, Jiang Mi's face was flushed with shame, and she hurriedly hid in the shadows.
The martial arts training ground is not big, there are some weapons and straw figures or something in it, Cui Zixuan stood there expressionlessly, facing Jiang Mi's figure sideways, revealing a fierceness that she had never seen before!
At this moment, several strong men walked in, each carrying a small wooden barrel.
Cui Zixuan slowly drew out his saber and said in a cold voice, "Come on!"
Almost as soon as his voice fell, a strong man sprinkled the contents of the barrel towards Cui Zixuan!
Oh my God! That's blood! That's a whole bucket of blood!
A bucket of blood poured out, and in a blink of an eye, Cui Zixuan was drenched all over his body. Cui Zixuan remained motionless, and he let the blood run down his hair down his cheeks and then onto his strong chest.
He slowly raised his long sword, and with a "porphyry" the sword cut off the head of a straw man, followed by another sword, and then another sword!
Cui Zixuan's movements are getting faster and faster, and his momentum is getting more and more aggressive.
In the flying sword light, Cui Zixuan's cold cheer sounded again, "Come again!"
"Porphyryβ" A bucket of blood poured over!
After a while, Cui Zixuan's shouting rose again, "Come on!"
With a "porphyry", another bucket of blood poured over!
Cui Zixuan is not very strong in terms of force. After practicing for a while, Cui Zixuan's physical strength was obviously exhausted. I saw him pounce and fall to the ground with a sword in one hand.
Cui Zixuan knelt down, and the servants around him knelt down without thinking about it.
In the white jade field sprinkled with blood, Cui Zixuan knelt there on one knee, wisps of blood running down his chin by his hair and then onto the ground.
As early as when the big man poured blood on Cui Zixuan, Jiang Mi was so shocked that he shrank to a corner. At this moment, she looked at Cui Zixuan who was kneeling there in a daze, and felt that he was full of indescribable sadness and pain all over his body!
I don't know how long it took, Cui Zixuan, who was motionless with his head down, spoke, and he asked slowly in a hoarse voice, "Chen Jiu, how many are these?"
The first strong man who poured blood on Cui Zixuan nodded to the ground and replied, "The fifth." β
Cui Zixuan's figure kneeling on the ground was like a blood-stained statue, he didn't move, but his hoarse voice seemed to be choked, "It's the fifth this year! Now there are only twenty-two young disciples left of my Boling Cui clan!"
As soon as his voice fell, several big men hit the ground with their foreheads and whimpered.
Cui Zixuan lowered his head, and Jiang Mi saw tears slipping down his long condensed eyelashes little by little, and gradually rushed out of a furrow on his blood-covered face...... Looking at Cui Zixuan like this, Jiang Mi's heart ached.
After a moment, Cui Zixuan slowly stood up.
After he stood up, his face was expressionless, "It's okay, prepare clothes and I'm going to bathe!"
"Yes!"
As soon as a few strong men stood up, Cui Zixuan turned around and walked towards the bathhouse.
Half an hour later, when Cui Zixuan reappeared, he was wearing a brocade with a warm smile, and as soon as he stepped out of the corridor, he paused, "Who?"
In the dark, before Jiang Mi could respond, her wrist was in sharp pain, and a strong force pulled her out of the darkness.
