Hongmen Banquet
"Shhhh Be quiet! Lausanne put his finger to his mouth and motioned to Bai Muran not to be surprised.
Bai Muran hurriedly covered his mouth and nodded at Lausanne.
"I'll go down first, I'll explain the rest to you later!" Lausanne hurriedly said to Bai Muran.
Hearing Luosang's words, Bai Muran was a little embarrassed, she patted Luosang with her hand, and pretended to be embarrassed and said to Luosang: "Those are your things, what do you explain to me?"
After finishing speaking, Bai Muran glanced at Luosang, and in an instant, there was a lot of style.
Lausanne was a little blindsided for a while.
"Aren't you leaving? Let's go! I was stunned that the Spirit King was about to come in. Bai Muran pulled Luosang's cheek, and then said with a red face.
"Oooh!" Lausanne came back to his senses, quickly opened the space ripples, and returned to the first floor.
As soon as Lausanne returned to the first floor and sat down, the Spirit King pushed open the door to the first floor of the Scripture Pavilion.
"Nephew Lausanne, how are you studying these days? Is there an achievement? As soon as the Spirit King entered the door, he laughed, as if there was something happy in the family.
"King Huiling, my nephew is stupid, I've been reading books here for so long, and I can't understand a single book, I'm really ashamed to know how to learn martial arts!" Lausanne pretended to be ashamed and said to the Spirit King.
"Huh!" The Spirit King originally thought that Luosang would be able to learn at least one or two martial arts, after all, as the son of the cultivation genius Martial King, Luosang's talent would not be worse no matter how bad it was, but Luosang told him that he had not learned a martial art, which made the Spirit King a little surprised.
Looking at Luosang's ashamed appearance, the Spirit King was also a little distressed: "This child, hey!"
"It's okay, it's okay! It doesn't matter if you don't learn, our Lingwang Mansion has a great cause, even if you don't cultivate for the rest of your life, I can keep you safe and rich for the rest of your life! The Spirit King patted Lausanne's shoulder and comforted.
"Huh? Keep me safe and rich for the rest of my life? I am not your son, what are you doing to keep me safe and rich all my life? You don't really want to marry your daughter to me, do you? I've been so wasteful, and you still look up to me? Lausanne was surprised.
In fact, the reason why Chang Haojie came back to fulfill the marriage contract with Lausanne was to find a husband who was easy to control, which King Ling knew, Bai Muran knew, but Lobsang didn't know, he still thought that the reason why King Ling recognized this family affair was because of his identity as the little prince of King Wu's Mansion on the one hand, and on the other hand, Liu Luosang was gentle and elegant in the past, and he looked like a handsome son.
"Damn, I saw Chang Haojie in Zhulin Academy that day, and I thought she wanted to divorce me, I even wrote the script of not bullying the poor boy, but you gave me a reversal, and the divorce became forced marriage, isn't this a waste of feelings?"
Luosang's heart is very depressed, he and Chang Haojie have only met once, and they can't talk about liking or hating, but he is very disgusted with the kind of things that treat marriage as child's play and marriage as a bargaining chip, especially Lausanne, who has received the 21st century ideological emancipation education, does not like this kind of arranged marriage in his heart, but arranged marriage is a characteristic of this era, his strength is not enough, and there is no way to disobey, the only thing he can do is to try to show his shortcomings and unbearable, and let Chang Haojie withdraw from the marriage.
"Oh? It's okay! Luosang looked at the Spirit King pretending to be suddenly enlightened, then threw the book in his hand, stretched his waist and said, "I knew that I couldn't cultivate, what book else did I read?" Why don't you go out for a drink? ”
"Drinking? You kid really follow your father, and you're a drunkard! The Spirit King laughed.
"Addiction, alcoholism?" The corners of Lausanne's mouth twitched, and looking at the happy Spirit King, he finally gave up his resistance.
"Alright! Spirit King, can I go out? Lausanne asked, looking at the Spirit King.
"Yes, you can! I'm looking for you! The Spirit King said to Lobsang and said, "Today I am going to hold a family banquet in the Spirit King's Mansion, and some relatives are coming over, so you can go with me." ”
"This, the family banquet of your Spirit King's Mansion, I won't mix it up!" Lausanne smiled and refused.
"That's not good, they came here to see you, how can you not go?" The Spirit King looked at Lausanne and said.
"See me?" Lausanne pointed to himself in confusion.
The Spirit King nodded: "Not bad!"
"What are you doing with me? I'm not from the Spirit King's Mansion, you're mistaken! Lausanne looked at the Spirit King and said.
"Make no mistake! Now don't ask, the family feast is about to start, let's go! The Spirit King urged Luo Sang Dao.
Lobsang smiled bitterly and promised the Spirit King.
In fact, this family banquet, Lausanne can probably guess what its purpose is, the seven aunts and eight aunts of Chang Haojie of the Lingwang Mansion want to see him, just to assess his future son-in-law of the Lingwang Mansion and see if he is qualified to enter the gate of the Lingwang Mansion.
This banquet is called the Family Banquet, which is actually a Hongmen Banquet.
"Good Hongmen feast! Happy Hongmen feast! This is my chance! Lausanne muttered to himself.
"Nephew Lausanne, what are you talking to yourself there?" The Spirit King turned his head and asked Luosang Dao.
"Nothing! It's nothing! Let's go! Lausanne quickly smiled and said.
Just as the Spirit King was about to take Luosang out of the Scripture Pavilion, there was a sound of staggering footsteps from the stairs on the second floor, and Bai Muran, dressed in white, appeared at the staircase.
"It turned out to be a white girl! Have you finished reading the book? The Spirit King turned around, saw Bai Muran, and saluted her.
Bai Muran returned the salute and said to the Spirit King: "It's too stuffy here, I'll go out to breathe!"
"That's right, I'm about to hold a family banquet in the Lingwang Mansion, just now I'm afraid of disturbing the girl's reading, so I didn't take the liberty to disturb the girl, now that the girl is free, then ask the girl to enjoy her face and go with me!" The Spirit King smiled at Bai Muran.
Bai Muran saw Luosang beside the Spirit King, so he looked at the Spirit King and asked, "Spirit King, is he going with you too?"
"Not bad! Lausanne's nephew is the protagonist of today's banquet! The Spirit King smiled.
"Okay! Then I'll follow you to eat! Bai Muran said with a smile.
"Welcome!" The Spirit King laughed.
"Hee-hee!" Bai Muran followed behind the Spirit King and winked playfully at Lausanne.
"Hey! You wouldn't be one of the people who made me right at this feast, would you? Taking advantage of the Spirit King's inattention, Luosang approached Bai Muran's side and asked.
"You know it's a Hongmen feast? Then you go back! Bai Muran said to Lausanne.
"I went to the Hongmen Banquet because of it!" Lausanne said.
"I understand! Don't worry, I'll help you! Bai Muran said with a smile at Luosang, his eyes full of cunning.
If Nangong Huang saw Bai Muran's expression, he would definitely understand that Bai Muran at this time had already held back his bad stomach, and someone would definitely be unlucky next.
Luosang naturally didn't know the hidden meaning under Bai Muran's smile, he smiled at Bai Muran and said, "Thank you!"
"It's okay, it's okay! It should be, it should be! Bai Muran forcibly held back a smile and said to Lausanne.
"Hey! Don't blame me, Lausanne! I'm also here to help you get out of the marriage? So don't worry about what I do to you later! Bai Muran looked at Lausanne and thought in his heart.
I don't know why, Bai Muran is particularly interested and motivated to destroy the marriage contract between Lausanne and Chang Haojie, and Bai Muran is very much looking forward to the family banquet in the Lingwang Mansion after a while.
At this moment, in the hall where the Lingwang Mansion family banquet was held, the guests were already seated, and the left side of the table was full, including Chang Haojie's grandmother, aunt, cousin, cousin, and nephew, as well as Chang Haoling, the right side of the table was empty, and there was only one person sitting, that was Chang Haojie's master Weishui.
At this moment, the hall was noisy, there was a lot of discussion on the left side of the table, and the discussion was all about the new aunt, and Weishui on the right side of the table closed his eyes and recuperated, as if he didn't care about everything that happened here.
At this moment, a woman dressed in a plain dress and covered with a thin veil on her face walked in from outside the door.
"Sister!" Seeing the comer, Chang Haoling jumped up from his seat, ran to the woman's side and grabbed her arm.
"Ling'er! You're still so frizzy. Chang Haojie said with a smile.
"Ling'er is still young!" Chang Haoling said coquettishly to Chang Haojie.
"You girl, you're so old and pretending to be a child! I'm only three years older than you! Chang Haojie smiled at Chang Haoling.
"Three years old isn't too big! Seeing that you are about to get married, sister, I don't know where my wishful husband is! Chang Haoling said with some deflatment.
As soon as she talked about getting married, the smile on Chang Haojie's face slowly disappeared, and she couldn't help but sigh faintly when she remembered the oppression she had been subjected to in the sect and the forced marriage.
"It's not what I want to marry, and I'm forced to be helpless!" Chang Haojie said in a low tone.
"Oh!" Chang Haoling also knew that the marriage of the family was involuntary, and she didn't have anything to say about it, just thinking about the Luosang she saw downstairs in the martial arts at that time, Chang Haoling didn't know why, and she had a faint uncomfortable feeling.
"Sister, do you like Lausanne?" Chang Haoling looked at Chang Haojie and asked.
"I haven't seen it before, so why don't you like it or not!" Chang Haojie sighed and said.
"Sister, the twisted melon is not sweet, since you don't like him, why should you wronged yourself to marry him?" Chang Haoling asked.
"Grievance?" Chang Haojie raised his head and secretly glanced in the direction of Weishui, and continued: "I don't care, my ambition is to cultivate, and I don't care about all kinds of love in this world, it's just that the prince of the Martial Prince's Mansion, I heard that he has been weak and sick since he was a child and can't cultivate, and he has already lost a lot of things, and now if he marries me, he can't even experience the most basic human happiness." According to Master's temper, she will never allow my husband to marry someone else. People often say that women are widowed, but if the prince of Wuwangfu marries me, what is the difference between it and the woman who is widowed? ”
Chang Haojie knew that she married Lausanne in order to take advantage of him, so she hid guilt in her heart, but Chang Haoling didn't know that although she was a little infatuated with Lausanne's appearance, she still favored her sister. She said to Chang Haojie: "How come? Sister, you are so beautiful, it is also a blessing for Lausanne to marry you! ”
"Blessing?" Chang Haojie had already thought that when Luosang became a relative to him and was taken to the Nine Heavens Lotus Pond by his master, his future life was almost predictable, he would be locked on the Lingfeng and could not go out, and what accompanied him every day would be the pitch-black mountain wall and boundless loneliness, he could not cultivate, and would only have a lifespan of less than a hundred years. It is his fate to die alone on the Lingfeng.
"Hey!" The more Chang Haojie thought about it, the more guilty she became, and finally she couldn't say a word.
"Jie'er, come here!" Feeling Chang Haojie's breath, Wei Shui closed his eyes and said lightly.
"Yes! Master! Chang Haojie answered, and then broke out of Chang Haoling's arm.
"Ling'er, Master called me!" Chang Haojie said to Chang Haoling.
"Good! Sister, let's go over! Chang Haoling smiled, and then walked towards his place.
The Spirit King took Luosang and Bai Muran to the door of the hall, and then motioned for Luosang to wait at the door, and then the Spirit King asked him to go in again.
The Spirit King entered the hall, greeted everyone, and sat down at the top of the table.
Bai Muran and Weishui said hello to Chang Haojie, and then sat next to Chang Haojie.
"Everyone's here, right?" The Spirit King looked at everyone and said.
The people looked at each other and did not speak. Bai Muran opened his mouth and said, "And my senior brother didn't come!"
"It doesn't matter! Don't wait for him! Wei Shui opened his eyes and said lightly.
"Okay! Then we won't wait for Nangong Gongzi! The Spirit King spoke, and then shouted towards the door, "Nephew Luosang, come in!"
Lobsang heard the cry of the Spirit King, coughed twice on the spot, tidied up his clothes by the way, and then swaggered into the hall.
"That's a lot of people!" Lausanne looked up and was instantly frightened by the battle of this family.
There were three people sitting on the right side of the table, one was Bai Muran, and two people who didn't know each other, since they were sitting with Bai Muran, they thought they should be people from the Nine Heavens Lotus Pond, what happened to these people sitting on the left? This is too much, all of them have a straight face, even, even that Chang Haoling, this really wants to give me a dismount!
Lausanne took two steps and thought that something was wrong.
"It's so quiet here, there won't be any ambush, right?" Lausanne thought to himself, and the movement of his feet slowed.
Looking at Lausanne looking left and right, grinding and chirping, Chang Haojie's grandmother snorted coldly: "Hmph! Grinding, it's just no one! ”
"Hey, I ......" Hearing the old lady's words, Lausanne was a little unhappy, it's not that you want to test Lao Tzu, what to pretend, for the sake of the face of the two families, I shouldn't regret the marriage and lose your face, you don't go too far!
"Hee-hee!" Bai Muran looked at Luosang's vigilant appearance, and felt very interesting in his heart, and couldn't help but "help" him.
"Since you want to pretend that you don't cultivate, I'll help you show it!" Bai Muran secretly put his hand under the tablecloth, and released a true qi with his hand, hitting Luosang's leg.
