Chapter Twenty-Seven: No Remorse in This Life, Committed to Marrying
Everyone knows that in the Chengluan Palace, there are only female disciples.
Therefore, the identity of the man who called Li Yuanru "aunt" is quite "meaningful".
But looking at Li Yuanru's expression, it seems that he has long been used to him messing around like this, although he said that he wanted to knock out "his mouth full of dog teeth", but in fact, he didn't mean to really give him what he wanted.
"You say, if my uncle comes back at this time and sees me sitting so close to you, will he be furious and throw me in the pot and stew with dog meat?"
As he spoke, the man smiled evilly, and leaned in front of Li Yuanru again, deliberately putting on a look of underbeating.
It's as if it would be a great honor for him to be able to annoy Li Yuanru.
"According to me, it's better not to be blind with a pot of dog meat in vain."
Li Yuanru smiled and stretched out his hand, and flicked another brain collapse to the center of the man's eyebrows, this time, just by listening to the voice, he could know that it must be much more painful than the one just now.
"How's it going to do what I told you to do?"
Seeing that the man was grinning at his own talk, Li Yuanru couldn't help but smile a little brighter.
Got up, took a small silver box out of his sleeve pocket, opened it, hooked a little beige ointment out of it with his index finger, and applied it to the center of his eyebrows.
"It's been delivered."
"Tsk, I knew that the guts of that thing were so small, I was reluctant to take out such a perfect piece of Tianling."
"I dare say, if my short knife were to move an inch further in the direction of his neck, he would have wet his pants in fright."
As he spoke, the man pulled out his dagger from his boot and shook it proudly.
The dagger is exquisite and luxurious, and there are dozens of gems of various colors inlaid on the handle and outer sheath alone, so that people can see at a glance that this thing is worth a lot of money.
"Look at your resentful look, it's just to be with you, and it's not to give away all your spoils, so what's the matter, you have been wronged like this!"
"Oh, I'll give you two pieces, two for one, and I won't let you pay for it, okay?"
The man who knew that he put on a crying face with himself was nothing more than wanting to ask for some benefits from himself.
Li Yuanru shook his head with a smile, and from his sleeve pocket, he found two bones that were as smooth as jade, and he didn't hesitate at all, so he threw them to him, "In a few days, I may have to accompany your uncle to go to southern Xinjiang, if you want to go with you, prepare early, early, say goodbye to your warblers and swallows, don't be about to go, and complain to me again, I didn't give you enough time to prepare." ”
"Oh, auntie, look at what you said, how do you listen, I'm a scum who messes with flowers everywhere?"
"Those birds of mine are all treasures, and I have to take them with me wherever I go, so I can leave them to others to take care of!"
Listening to Li Yuanru call the birds he raised in the tone of a woman, the man laughed instead of being annoyed, dragged the stool, and leaned closer to her, putting on a pitiful appearance, "But, seriously, when are you willing to give me an amnesty and allow me to marry into Chengluan Palace?" My birds, who work so hard for the palace all day long, don't even have a proper name, but they are very wronged! ”
"The stakes are very high."
"I advise you, think about it again, Chiwu."
"The rules of the palace, you know better than me, marrying into the Chengluan Palace, you are the queen of Luan, and for the rest of your life, you can only be accompanied by the birds in the palace, and you can no longer have anything to do with the women in the world."
Faced with Chiwu's "appeal", Li Yuanru finally showed a look of embarrassment.
This is left by the old palace master's son, a man who has loved all kinds of birds and birds since he was a child, and has always been a character who gives her a headache.
His father, because of his drunken negligence and an affair with a woman from the Western Border, lost the opportunity to marry into the Chengluan Palace and become the queen of Luan, and because of this, in less than a year, he died of depression.
He was abandoned by his mother and sent to the northwest, and she coincidentally passed by, rescued from under the sharp teeth of wild dogs, treated the wounded, and since then, has become a "drag oil bottle" that cannot be driven away, following for hundreds of miles, gnawing on tree bark when hungry, drinking muddy water when thirsty, and refusing to leave.
If it weren't for him, the master of Chengluan Palace would not have taken her in, and she had nothing to do with Chengluan Palace, and her talent was ridiculously poor.
Speaking of which, it can be regarded as good and evil in the end, and her momentary kindness saved her life and future by chance.
Chiwu's talent is excellent.
According to the old palace master, as good as his father.
But instead of letting him marry into Chengluan Palace and linger with a flock of birds for the rest of his life, the old palace master hopes that he can be a normal person, marry a wife, have children, and enjoy the joy of family in his old age.
When she was dying, Li Yuanru, who had inherited her position as the head of the palace, made such a will: If Chiwu, he asked for a hundred times to marry into Chengluan, and he was not disqualified, so he was allowed.
This time, it is the ninety-seventh.
Chiwu still has no love with any woman, and has not lost the piece on his arm, symbolizing that he is still a child.
"The women of the world are all mundane things dressed in beautiful skins, how can they compare to half a feather of the birds?"
"If you can marry the one in the tower and fight with her every day, then you will not waste this life!"
The reason why Chengluan Palace is called Chengluan Palace is because there is a tower in its station, and in the tower, there is a giant bird called "Luan Bird".
No one knows how old that bird is.
No palace person has really seen the demeanor of that bird.
The people who serve and worship are blindfolded every day, and when they bring food into the tower gate, they will return immediately, and if they go slowly, they will become the food of the "Luan Bird" together.
Only those who have the blue eyes of the Luan bird can practice the secret art of bird language, and only those who have practiced the secret art of bird language are qualified to become the queen of Luan, and on the night of the wedding, they can see its demeanor and not die from its sharp beak and sharp claws.
Of course, everything is legendary.
According to the rules, the people of the Luan Palace will give a number of good-looking boys as tribute to the "Luan Bird" every year, until they choose the Luan, and then die after the Luan, and then repeat the cycle.
But the result is mostly the same.
The boys who were sent into the tower would be thrown out of the tower in the early morning of the next day.
Only a very small number of people can use their own legs to come out of the tower, and since then they have comprehended the true meaning of the secret art of bird language, and have become candidates for Luanhou.
Jin Wu's father walked into the tower voluntarily, and when he came out, his face was full of happiness and smiles.
Jin Crow, who sneaked into the tower by himself, came out humming a little tune, and on the index finger of his left hand, there was a spar collar that shone with colorful light.
At that time, Jin Wu didn't know that he had experienced a life and death uncertaintie.
He always told others that there was only a beautiful young lady in the tower, and there were no birds at all.
Later, when he grew up, he still went into the tower to play every once in a while, as he had done when he was a child, but one day later, suddenly, he didn't say a word about what he saw in the tower.
He just said that he was going to marry into Chengluan Palace, and after becoming Luan, no matter how persuaded by anyone, he would not listen to half a word.
"Think about it again."
"You're only seventeen, and the days to come are still very long."
Li Yuanru took a deep breath, and his stubbornness towards Jin Wu was delayed again.
This child was raised by her.
His childhood was very bitter, so bitter that as long as someone was willing to drive wild dogs for him, he would not hesitate to follow them to the place of exile, preferring to gnaw on the bark of trees, drink muddy water, and faint with a fever, rather than let go, and hold the corners of people's clothes.
Therefore, she hopes that the rest of his life can be more joyful, more happy, and more quiet and good times that can only be seen by ordinary people.
Chengluan Palace is very good.
But she felt that for Jin Wu, there should be a better future than after becoming Luan.
Belief is such a thing as a fanaticism.
But fanaticism is a thing that will always fade with age.
If you don't die before the light fades, the rest of your life will be nothing but regret and loneliness.
He didn't want Jin Crow to die early.
He didn't want to, after the fanaticism faded, he guarded a bird and died lonely.
After all, for her, the golden crow can be regarded as half a relative.
People who can become queens, they can find them slowly.
But there is only one Golden Crow.
"Auntie, there are some things that people who have never experienced will never understand."
"When my grandmother was alive, there was a saying on her lips, which was called, "If a person drinks water, he knows his own warmth and coldness."
Seeing that Li Yuanru moved his gaze to the window and did not look at him, Jin Wu couldn't help but smile, took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked at the beam of the house where he was hiding before.
"I'm not a kid anymore."
"The fanaticism you have never seen in me."
"I really admire her, and I want to hold hands with him and grow old together, whether in your eyes, she is sacred, or a monster, or something else."
"It's like you want to go back to the Central Plains and marry your uncle."
"Everyone thinks that he is not worthy of you, you shouldn't be a person like him, who is not an exaggeration to say that he has nothing, taking risks and grievances, but you feel that he is what you want, no matter how much you pay, it is worth it."
"It's the same with me today."
"So, even if you make me think about it many times, the answer I'll give you is only this one."
"I want to marry into Chengluan Palace, become Luan, stay with her, and have no regrets for the rest of my life."
When he said these words, Jin Crow's eyes were clear.
It's as if being able to stay with that legendary bird is what he has wanted all his life, and if he can't get it, he'd rather die.
After that, he slowly stood up, jumped on, jumped on the beam, and hid himself again, "I know, what did grandmother tell you before she died, I advise you, it is better not to waste your efforts, if you must listen to me a hundred times before you are willing to give up, then now, I can tell you all the remaining two times, I want to marry into Chengluan Palace, become Luanhou, I want to marry into Chengluan Palace, become Luanhou, okay, now, you can answer me, you agree!" ”
