Chapter 9 Promises
This is one of his own stunts, and it was because of this trick that he won the title of a sharpshooter, and it was from then that he officially stood in front of everyone. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ming Xu narrowed his eyes slightly, drew his bow, and aimed.
The moment the arrow came out of his hand, it was already flying at an extremely fast speed towards the silver ring fifty meters away.
In the eyes of almost astonishment and amazement, the arrow passed through the silver ring steadily and landed on the target not far behind.
At that moment, except for the silver ring that was still swaying slightly in the air, the picture seemed to be frozen, and everyone was motionless looking in one direction.
After a long time, in Qingning's applause, everyone had different expressions.
With such an accurate arrow, it is not impossible for the children on the grassland to shoot, but it always needs to be practiced.
I have to say that in today's competition, this Xiliao man surprised everyone. And the results are clearly visible.
Battle's heart was full of anger, but he couldn't attack in front of so many people, and finally he could only throw his sleeves away angrily.
Seeing Ming Xu's ability, Qing Ning had a good impression of him in his heart. Ignoring Battle's departure, he announced directly in front of everyone: "The competition is over, the princess's quasi-husband is Mingxu, and the wedding will be held on the White Moon Festival!" ”
For such a result, Arislan also seemed a little surprised and reluctant, but looking at the smile on Qing Ning's face, Arislan couldn't bear to say anything, and finally had to leave.
Such an outcome was obviously not approved by Battle, and in the following days, Battle and Qingning had the first quarrel and stalemate between father and daughter over this matter.
In desperation, Arislan, who was watching from the sidelines and was anxious, had no choice but to invite the high priest, after all, the high priest's prophecy had a great influence on this matter.
The high priest didn't say much, and after being silent for a long time, he only shook his head, closed his eyes and said a little helplessly: "Providence is like this, whether it is a blessing or a curse, it depends on the creation of the princess." ”
Although there are many twists and turns in the middle, the wedding ceremony of Mingxu and Qingning will come after all.
Because the wedding is held on the grassland, all the rules must be in accordance with the grassland.
The night before the White Moon Festival, Battle and Mingxu talked alone in the king's tent for the whole night. It wasn't until the rising star on the second day that Mingxu came out of the king's tent and was personally taken by Arislan to prepare for marriage.
The White Moon Festival is also a New Year on the grassland, so all the New Year's activities are held in the morning, and the big wedding starts in the afternoon.
The marriage ceremony begins with the sacrifice to heaven and earth, and is presided over by the high priest. Although Mingxu couldn't understand what the high priest said at all, the basic etiquette had been told to him by Arislan before, so there were no major problems.
After the first roasted sheep is presented as a sacrifice, the feast begins. The people on the grassland are simple, and they are not so particular about eating, and they generally use their hands directly. Mingxu is also very good at following the customs, and personally used a dagger to remove the best mutton and sent it to Qingning.
The feast lasted from sunset until nightfall. The huge bonfire that had already been set up was lit by Qing Ning and Ming Xu themselves, and the sky was instantly red.
Everyone began to get up and dance and sing, and the atmosphere reached its climax at once.
Although Ming Xu didn't, he also tried to jump for the sake of Qing Ning. At that moment, it suddenly felt like a dream, unreal.
When he got to the gap, Ming Xu pulled Qing Ning to a slightly quieter place.
Because of dancing, Qing Ning's cheeks looked extremely rosy at this moment.
"What's wrong?" Qing Ning looked at Ming Xu happily.
"Although I married you today, I owe you a dowry." Ming Xu said with a serious face, "But don't worry, I will definitely double it in the future." ”
Hearing this, Qing Ning really wanted to laugh out loud. But all of a sudden, he became playful, and instantly changed to a sad look and said: "Speaking of which, I can be regarded as the cheapest girl on the grassland, not only did I not receive a dowry, but I also pasted a large amount of dowry." It's still a princess, and I'm afraid no one will believe it when I say it. ”
When Ming Xu heard this, he felt even more guilty in his heart, and immediately grabbed Qingning's shoulder and said: "Don't worry, as long as I have it in the future, I can give it to you, I will definitely treat you well for the rest of my life, and I will never fail you in this life!" ”
Qing Ning looked at Ming Xu's appearance, and finally couldn't bear it. "Puff-" laughed out and said, "Don't care, husband, I was joking with you just now." ”
"But I'm serious." Mingxu said immediately.
Suddenly remembered what Qing Ning called himself just now, and looked at Qing Ning with some surprise and said, "What did you call me just now?" ”
"Husband." Qing Ning had a bright smile on her face, "Since you and I are married, I should naturally call your husband." ”
Ming Xu's heart became extremely warm at that moment, and he immediately took Qing Ning into his arms.
After getting married, Mingxu lived in the tent where Qingning originally lived. The two of them had a very happy time on the grassland, even if it was winter, they could often be seen galloping on the grassland.
Or maybe the two of them will play chess in the tent and fight on the chessboard. Nowadays, Qingning's chess skills can be described as advancing by leaps and bounds.
Spring soon came, and the prairie was full of life again. Everyone has also started the work of the new year.
At this time, a piece of news from Xiliao set off another wave.
There is civil strife in Xiliao!
The ninth and tenth sons of the first king finally broke out under oppression. The two forces behind them formed an alliance and waged a war near the royal city, and after three successive battles with the defenders of the royal city, a stalemate ensued.
Ming Xu, who received this news, could not calm down for a long time. For more than three months, he escaped death because he hid in the grassland. As long as Mingxian is the king one day, he will never be able to live peacefully in Xiliao.
Looking at Ming Xu's frowning brows and a sad face, Qing Ning stepped forward and asked, "Do you want to go back?" ”
"It's easier said than done." Ming Xu shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that I haven't even been close to the royal city, and I've already died in Huangquan." ”
"If you want to go back, I will definitely accompany you back." Qing Ning leaned on Ming Xu's shoulder and said.
"Princess, the king summons you and the colt." At this time, An An came in and said.
"Daddy?" Qing Ning was a little surprised, since he got married, Daddy almost didn't take the initiative to summon Mingxu, how could he ...... today
"Okay, let's get over now." Qing Ning didn't think much about it, and immediately got up and said.
After entering the king's tent, he found that there were other people inside, in addition to his brother, there were several generals.
"You must have received the news from Xiliao. Now that the time is ripe, this king will fulfill his previous promise and devote the power of my grassland to help you return to Xiliao, and I hope that you can fulfill your promise after the success. Battle crossed Qingning and got straight to the point.
