On the seventh day of the seventh month of July, the auspicious day set by Qin Tianjian after repeated calculations was also the day when the Southern Tang Dynasty officially erased the territory of the Central Plains for one year.

Jinling, which has been silent for more than half a year, is once again dressed in red and colorful because of this grand wedding, and the lights are brilliant.

The news that Princess Chen Guo will marry Tang Hou has long spread all over the country, and Jinling City is full of people, and people are talking about it, firmly believing that marriage is a ridiculous power transaction, in fact, even if the man is Li Yeyin, the political significance behind this marriage is still more noticeable than the two protagonists of the wedding.

If he was really stabbed to death in the Huguo Temple, maybe he would be happier.

In the crowd, there is no lack of such voices, on the Vermilion Bird Avenue in Jinling City, when the people waited for the honor guard to pass by, they whispered this, on the distant embroidery building, the woman behind the bamboo curtain washed her face with tears, and couldn't bear to look at the center of the convoy, the Southern Tang Dynasty prince who was able to be called a country in appearance and talent was forced to squeeze out a smile, and married the princess of Chen Guo, who was famous all over the world.

......

The emperor married his daughter, followed the ancient etiquette, and paid more attention to the auspicious day of the zodiac, although the wedding party was just surrounded by hundreds of forest guards, and arrived at the newly built palace on the outskirts of the city in a golden and jade carriage, but it was not until noon - the most auspicious time for the Qin Tianjian to choose the Nacai ceremony, and the overture of the big wedding was officially played.

Eighty carriages and two hundred white horses composed of the collection of ceremonies along the Vermilion Bird Avenue, stretching for several miles, the end of the end can not care about each other, because the Qi royal family has a small amount of Xianbei blood, the ritual used by the Han people to represent the woman and husband, shun the yin and yang, have been replaced by more nomadic characteristics of horses, saddle bridles, armor, etc., and in return, and respect for her husband Tang Hou, Princess Chen Guo's wedding dress deliberately chose a black and red deep dress with wide sleeves, long hair is all tied into the golden crown, standing on the palace, dignified and simple, just like the appearance of the Han family.

The hour has come.

The eunuch pulled his slender voice and summoned Li Yeyin into the temple.

So all the people were conquered, and they saw that where the earth and the sky met, an ancient god dressed in black and red was walking slowly, clothed in brilliant golden light, with a face as white as the moon, but the depths of his eyes were full of profundity. He was so perfect, so moving, until he walked in front of them and knelt down to the emperor, they finally realized that this perfect dream-like person was the hero of this marriage.

Tuoba Jing was equally stunned, she thought she was used to his almost unreal perfection, but when he appeared in full costume, her heart almost forgot to beat again.

Sure enough, it was a big gaffe.

Thinking shyly, Tuoba Jing walked down the jade steps, stood side by side with her, knelt down, and accepted the golden book of marriage, and the moment the attendant handed over the golden book to Tang Hou's hands, sixty-four giant drums sounded at the same time, and the high-pitched and jumping beat beat the long sound of the chime, layer by layer, spread the good news of marriage throughout Jinling City.

This is a perfect marriage, both parties are absolutely compatible in terms of identity and appearance, and more importantly, it means a new era, it is the proof of the unity of the Tuoba clan!

A year ago, Murong Shi, the general of the Northern Qi Dynasty, burned down the Southern Tang Palace, and a year later, the Northern Qi Emperor announced to the world Qi's absolute rule over the Tang Dynasty with a perfect marriage!

Helpless, but not complaining.

When the Murong clan was ordered to slaughter the Southern Tang royal family, the Southern Tang Dynasty no longer existed, and all that existed was a group of slaves who died in the country.

At least, Li Yeyin, who accepted the alms of the Tuoba clan on behalf of the Southern Tang royal family, accepted the golden book of marriage very calmly, held the hand of Princess Chen Guo, who couldn't wait, and slowly walked out of the Jinluan Palace, walking slowly along the royal road under the gaze of thousands of gold-armored guards, the target was the golden carriage at the end of the road.

His face was unusually calm, and there was no sign of joy or sorrow.

At noon in July, just as the fire was flowing, even if there were ice packs hidden in the robe, it was still so hot that people were sweating, but Li Yeyin's face was pale without blood.

Tuoba Jing's heart tightened suddenly.

This huge marriage seems to be peaceful, but it is actually full of dangers.

The stubborn remnants of the Southern Tang Dynasty, the monks who were loyal to Kuze, and too many forces did not want Li Yeyin to marry Princess Chen. The assassination that happened in the Huguo Temple, the blood stains have not dried up, through the golden tassel of the flower crown, Tuoba Jing is vigilant around, although today's guards are personally responsible for the emperor's uncle Pingcheng Wang, but who can guarantee that a cold arrow will not suddenly fly out of the crowd!

This is a marriage that is not optimistic about the future by anyone, only Tuoba Jing, who is in it, is willing to eat.

Tick......

Tick......

The inaudible sound of liquid dripping, she lowered her head, and found that on the white jade steps that had been burned by the sun, there was a faint ink color looming, and there was a burning smell in the air.

The noisy world was instantly quiet, the original ceremony of Lego was so quiet that you could hear each other's breathing, the guards were like iron and wood carvings, under the scorching sun, not moving at all, and the sweat on the forehead dragged a long tear stain on the cheeks!

What happened!

What does it feel like the air is getting colder!

Tuoba Jing thought in horror, she tried to look around, but found that the movement of her body became extremely slow, the air was viscous paste, and she could see the waves of her fingers raised in the transparent air, and the terrible coercion was overwhelming, blowing up her clothes and flying wildly, and the tassels were stirring endlessly.

Who the hell is going to kill us!

Tuoba Jing was terrified, the dark whirlpool was sweeping, the earth trembled, not far away, a thousand pounds of Huazhu was uprooted, she couldn't stand firmly, and the whole person was going to be blown away-

Help me! Who's going to save me!

Suddenly—

A hand grasped her steadily, and in the dark world that suddenly came, Li Yeyin's body was abnormally glowing, and the faint warm light was the moon that illuminated the sky.

Leave me alone, go away—

She screamed out loud, only to find out in agony that she couldn't make it.

Darkness poured in like a tidal wave. The whole square, half shrouded in darkness, and half still under the domination of day. And the dividing line between day and night is the hands she and him clasped together!

What the hell is going on!

The boundless darkness continued to expand, and she saw that the world behind Yeyin was a darkness with nothing, no stars, no light, only nothingness.

She should soon be swept to the other side of the darkness, wrapped in darkness and cold, forever adrift.

But why would he be happy, because he was also in the darkness?

Black lightning swept through Tuoba Jing's heart, she didn't know where the darkness of the Dao came from, and what it would become after being swallowed by it, but as long as she thought of him in the dark world, she longed for him, and sweetness would always swell in her heart.

She smiled.

She saw him standing quietly at the edge of the darkness, his long hair scattered, his black and red gown tattered by the wind, his white robe waving in the wind, and his forehead glowing with a faint gold.

Like a gardenia blooming under the moonlit night, it seems weak but terrifyingly strong.

If I can't bring you back to the light, I'll fall into the darkness with you.

With a bang, the triple hollow gold crown was thrown down, and Tuoba quietly closed her eyes, expecting to be pulled into the darkness by her loved one.

The body became lighter, her feet seemed to leave the ground, the contradiction between loss and gain flew in her heart, the cold slowly invaded her body, but it was so reassuring, so nostalgic......

"Moo!"

Suddenly, there was a burst of thunder in the dark world, and the golden powder could be seen swaying all over the sky with both eyes closed, and the lost heart was suddenly pulled back to the body, Tuoba Jing opened his eyes and found that he was still in place, wearing a heavy flower crown and a sweaty dress.

But her hand no longer held Li Yeyin.

Between her and him, stood Kuze in a brocade robe.

The sky was still blue, cloudless, the scorching sun was dizzying, and the guards standing with swords and halberds were all waiting for each other at this moment, and the tips of the swords and halberds invariably pointed at Li Yeyin.

However, in a desperate situation and may be riddled with holes at any time, Li Yeyin is still smiling.

His appearance was the same as what Tuoba Jing saw in the dark hallucination, his long hair was scattered, his face was sticky, hanging down his shoulders, his black and red robe was torn, revealing a white silk undershirt, blood oozed from the corners of his pale mouth, his right hand covered his left shoulder, his left hand fell weakly, red blood dripped down his fingertips, and there was already a small puddle of blood on the white jade floor.

Finding that Tuoba Jing had woken up, Li Yeyin also raised her head, her black hair half-covered her bloodstained left eye, but her exposed right eye was still so proud, as if the night itself was terrifyingly charming.

"National teacher, I didn't expect you to arrive in time. ”

He opened his mouth and said resentfully, perhaps because of the damage to his heart and lungs, his voice was still elegant and gentle, but with the pain of tearing, and his panting was faintly full of blood.

"You have a bad heart, vainly trying to cause trouble in the Great Qi country, as a national teacher, how can I tolerate you! Today is to do the right thing for heaven and eliminate evil!"

Ku Ze said coldly, he has been cultivating for thousands of years, he is one of the few gods in the cultivation world, and he is also the elder of the Yiyuan Sect, but just looking at his appearance, he looks like a monk in his thirties, tall, his face is full and lush because of the infiltration of Buddhism, he is not a beautiful man, but everyone who meets him can't take their eyes off it, and can't help but bathe in his Buddha light.

"Do you confuse the country? Master Kuze, you have committed tens of millions of sins, and you are really not afraid of being punished by the Buddha?"

Li Yeyin said self-deprecatingly, raising his head, his eyes were as cold as water.

In an instant, Tuoba Jing's heart was shot by a sharp arrow again, and she saw that his eyes were a puddle of cold water, but she wanted to drown in his eyes.

"I want to become a Buddha, heaven and earth are useless, who dares to stop me?"

Kuze, who was questioned, said indifferently, he took half a step forward, and suddenly, the scorching sun disappeared, the auspicious clouds in the west, three thousand gods and Buddhas came out, and the people in the square all knelt down to worship, and the sound of chanting inside and outside Jinling City resounded through the world!

Even Tuoba Hong, who supported Li Yeyin, saw the general trend of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military bowing, so he got up helplessly and joined the team of kneeling.

All the people knelt down, only Li Yeyin and Kuzawa, and Tuoba Jing, who was held by Kuze, remained standing.

The Buddha chanting was overwhelming, and it shocked Li Yeyin's eyes, nose, mouth, and ears to bleed. The impact on Tuoba Jing was not so exaggerated, but she also felt all kinds of discomfort below her knees, as if she was being cut by a blade against a bone.

"What the hell is going on, national teacher, tell me, what is going on, what do you want-"

She didn't know if the darkness of the Dao was real or illusory, she only saw Yeyin's pale face, and her fingers dripping blood, and her porcelain-like skin cracking inch by inch, and the person she loved was turning into a bloody person.

"National teacher, please let him go, please let him go...... I'll give you whatever you want...... National Teacher!"
