Chapter Ninety-Nine: Marriage
Shui Yunyijun frowned slightly, his right hand was slightly clenched, he smiled bitterly, looked at the middle-aged man, and asked, "Senior, do you want to take Miss Situ away from Yeyue this time?" β
"I came all the way to Yeyue just to take Mo'er, but Mo'er's character, I know very well that if she can't get the moon flower, she won't leave Yeyue."
The middle-aged man put down the teacup and said, he looked at Shui Yunyi, and saw that his handsome and upright figure concealed a sadness, and he was inexplicably moved, and suddenly remembered something, and he sighed.
"To tell the truth, if you are not Prince Wing, your niece and son-in-law, the old man is still very satisfied, and I have followed you all the way, and I am very satisfied with you. Just because of your deep love for Mo'er, I will be very satisfied with Mo'er's promise to you. β
Shui Yunyi paused for a moment, then smiled bitterly, and saluted quite politely, "Thank you seniors for your appreciation of me, it's a pity that I have nothing to do with Miss Situ after all, but if I have the appreciation of my seniors, the juniors are very happy." β
"Hey!"
"Prince Tsubasa, you are so similar to your mother, both of them are temperamental! They are also very sensible. The middle-aged man shook his head and sighed, with a bit of regret in his words.
Hearing Situ Han mention his mother, Shui Yunyi's heart ached, and his eyes showed a deep sadness, but this sadness didn't stay for long, and he thought about it.
"Did my senior go to see my grandmother?"
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "It seems that you already know about our relationship with your grandmother." β
Shui Yunyi nodded, thinking of Situ Yimo, he replied, "Yes, when I first saw Miss Situ, I was very curious that her appearance would be so similar to that of my grandmother when she was young, and later, she could open a thousand fennel, so I had some doubts."
Until she can wear the Phantom Heart Bell, I can be sure that she is the blood of Yuelingxiang, and also, when I go to the temple, as soon as she puts on the Holy Maiden Ring and can take out the underwater mirror, I know her relationship with her grandmother.
I think that my mother, that is, Miss Situ's grandmother, is my grandmother's cousin. β
Situ Han exhaled slowly and nodded, "Yes, your grandmother is my aunt. Mo'er is also your cousin. She and Princess Ruorou are also cousins, and now they are also the only bloodline that exists in Yuelingxiang's lineage. β
Shui Yunyi looked up at the woman in the painting, her handsome eyebrows kept frowning, she didn't stretch, her heart kept pinching, she was very sullen, and she didn't say anything.
Situ Han saw it in his eyes, sighed, and stood for a while before speaking. "Mo'er is my favorite niece, she is the daughter of my Situ Wangfu, my brother's favorite daughter, and the only surviving bloodline of my mother's lineage.
She can only be the county lord of Situ Wangfu in this life, and we will never let her go to the Ancient Domain, let her face that danger! Once the people of the Ancient Domain knew that Mo'er was her mother's granddaughter, they were afraid that Mo'er would follow in her mother's footsteps in the future, which I would never allow and could not. β
"My eldest brother's death is related to the Ancient Domain. I don't want Mo'er, to die in the Ancient Realm too!"
Speaking of this, Situ Han still had tears in his eyes, and he exhaled before he continued, "Prince Yi, I believe that you, like me, don't want Mo'er to face the dangers of the Ancient Domain. β
"I know, so no matter what, I'll send her back to southern Xinjiang. Since the seniors are here, then we should also discuss and have a foolproof plan. Shui Yunyi raised his head, closed his eyes slightly, and pondered for a while. Someone from the family has arrived, and we don't have much time, so we can't let the people of the Ancient Domain notice the existence of Miss Situ. β
"Yes, how can you not let the only Yuelingxiang woman be in danger again." Situ Han nodded, he admired Shui Yunyi's honest feelings. It's a pity that his identity makes it impossible for him to entrust Situ Yimo to him.
"By the way, there's one thing, I don't know if you have found it out." Situ Han suddenly remembered and asked.
"The senior wants to ask, who is helping Miss Situ in the matter of King Jin's Mansion?"
"Exactly." Situ Han frowned slightly, "Mo'er is here for Yeyue, our Situ Wangfu will definitely send the Blue Fox Army to protect her secretly, but this matter of the Jinwang Mansion is not the handiwork of the Blue Fox Army, but apart from the Blue Fox Army, I can't think of anyone else who will help Mo'er." β
As soon as the words fell, he glanced at Shui Yunyi, paused and said, "Originally, I suspected that Xuan Heyu, the head of the Yuelingxiang family, that is, my little uncle, my first reaction was that he was secretly protecting Mo'er, but his identity was not suitable to show up at this time, so he would not come to Yeyue." β
Shui Yunyi raised his eyebrows, he had long heard of the head of the Yueling Xiang lineage, but he had never seen him, and no one in the ancient domain had ever seen him. He had always been mysterious, even his maternal grandmother, who had met him once when he was younger, and never saw him again.
Now the situation in the ancient domain is very mysterious, as the only remaining descendant of Yue Lingxiang, he really will not appear in the night moon at this time.
"I suspect that the person who secretly helped Mo'er is also from the Ancient Domain."
"What is the basis for the suspicions of the seniors?"
Situ Han frowned, "I've been here for a few days, and I've been guarding in the dark, as soon as I knew about the affairs of King Jin's Mansion, I wanted to explore and understand, but I was preempted by someone, judging from the traces left on the scene, I found that the other party was proficient in maze formations, and was good at psychedelic formations." β
"The seniors are suspicious, this person is from the Lanting clan?" Shui Yunyi immediately had an answer in his heart.
"Yes, the Lanting clan is good at psychedelic formations, and among the forces in the ancient domain, the Lanting clan is somewhat involved with Princess Ruorou. After all, the old lady of the Li clan of the Lingyong clan is from the Lanting clan. It's just that thinking like this is also a little involved, because, I can't figure out why the people of the Lanting clan want to help Mo'er? Situ Han was faintly worried.
"Does the senior suspect that the other party has some intentions?" Shui Yunyi raised his eyebrows, thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It should be unlikely, the Lanting clan may not have shown up in the Ancient Domain for a long time, and it should not help the Ancient Domain to do things." Moreover, since Miss Situ accepted the man's help, it can be seen that they should have known each other. β
"That's right." Situ Han put aside this doubt for the time being, and thought of Situ Yimo's intention to take the moon flowers, so he said sternly, "Let's discuss the matter of taking the moon flowers the day after tomorrow, I can't show my face, so I can only cooperate secretly." β
"Okay." Shui Yunyi took out the topographical map of the Holy Land from the table, and told Situ Han about his and Situ Yimo's plan, and the two discussed it again and made a more perfect plan.
A day later, Situ Yimo was dressed in the formal clothes of Prince Yi and followed Shui Yunyi to the palace, and the second prince in front looked at Situ Yimo from time to time, which made Situ Yimo feel faintly uneasy, but she didn't think much about it, and when she arrived at the main hall, she just cautiously sat behind Prince Yi.
The singing and dancing in the hall were graceful and beautiful, everyone was smiling, Situ Yimo was also smiling, but her little hands that had nowhere to put exposed her uneasiness, and she didn't know what kind of reason Shui Yunyi would find to get out.
But seeing that he was drinking very easily, Situ Yimo felt a little relieved, since Shui Yunyi promised to take her to the Holy Land, then she should also believe him.
"This is my grandmother's own fruit wine, you can taste it." Shui Yunyi raised his eyes and saw Situ Yimo eating fruit quietly, so he smiled and picked up the glass cup, poured her a glass of fruit wine, and said with a smile.
"Okay."
Situ Yimo took the teacup, took a sip, his eyes lit up, it was very sweet, and he took a few more sips.
Seeing that she liked it, Shui Yunyi looked at her with a smile in his eyes for a while, then looked at the queen sitting on it and nodded slightly at her.
The queen comprehended her thoughts, nodded lightly, and whispered a few words in Zunshang's ear, Zunshang was stunned for a moment, then looked at Situ Yimo, and then looked at the second prince, and said with a smile.
"The second prince and Princess Ruorou have come from afar, and I respect you for a cup."
Situ Yimo heard the voice of His Excellency, first paused, then picked up the wine glass, stood up behind the second prince, and saw the second prince return the salute, she also followed the salute and toasted a glass of wine.
She thought that the matter was over, and just wanted to sit down, she heard the Venerable say again, "Princess Ruorou has had a marriage contract with Yi'er since she was a child, and since she has come to Yeyue this time, this marriage has also been put on the agenda, I don't know what the second prince's opinion is?" β
"If the royal sister of Ruorou can tie the knot with Prince Yi, this is also what our Lingyong clan has been looking forward to, and the marriage is all up to the honorable!" The second prince smiled, and after speaking, he drank a glass of spirits very boldly.
"Good!"
"Then take advantage of today's good time, the deity will be in charge, six days later, it will be our night moon flower feast, and the marriage of Yi'er and Princess Ruorou will be set on this day." His Excellency said with a smile.
Situ Yimo stayed in place, she didn't react, why did she stand up and drink a glass of wine, and in the blink of an eye, the marriage was decided?
Seeing Situ Yimo's cute appearance, Shui Yunyi smiled, stood up, took Situ Yimo's hand, walked to the middle of the hall, and saluted to the Zun to thank him, "Thank you, grandfather, for giving Yi'er a marriage." β
"Well, good!"
"Hahaha--"
"Congratulations to Prince Tsubasa on tying the knot!"
Situ Yimo listened to the congratulatory voices of the ministers around her, and was stunned in place, she looked at her hand held by Shui Yunyi, and didn't know what to say for a while.
"Your Excellency, since the marriage of the two children has been decided, do you have to let Yi'er take Mo'er to the temple to worship the ancestors?" The queen smiled.
"Yes, today is the birthday of the deity, and it is true that you should go to the temple to pay respects, and it just so happens that Yi'er has a happy event again, this double happiness, you should let Yi'er go to the temple and worship the ancestors for the deity." Zunshang nodded and smiled.
"Yes, Yi'er commands."
Situ Yimo suddenly realized, it turned out that this was the reason why Prince Yi said to leave the hall, but there was no need to talk about marriage, right?
Shui Yunyi understood the confusion in Situ Yimo's eyes, he led Situ Yimo to the outside of the main hall, and whispered in her ear, "Only the Venerable can enter the temple, and when the prince is given marriage, he can only enter with his fiancΓ©e." β
"Every year at the birthday banquet, I will go to the temple to worship my ancestors, and if I want to leave the main hall, our marriage is the best reason."
Situ Yimo nodded, although she was a little uneasy in her heart, but now that she had left the main hall naturally, it could be regarded as one step closer to success.
