Chapter 41: She Doesn't Want It
"Sister, why are you looking at me like this?" Feng Ruoyu shrunk her neck and said uncomfortably.
"Little girl, the story told by your brother Qibei is also blowing, don't you think he is naΓ―ve?"
"But, I don't think he's blowing. Wind and rain retorted.
Feng Ruoyu looked at her sister's clear big eyes and smiled, maybe she thought too much, although her sister was quirky and knew everything, knowing it didn't mean she understood.
"Don't you know that Qi Bei will also go to his fiefdom after he gets engaged? Feng Ruoyun touched her sister's hair lovingly.
Feng Ruoyu muttered a few words, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said, "Sister, look, Brother Qi Bei and Sister Mingyue are here." β
Qi Bei took Princess Mingyue's little hand and got off the carriage, and the two rows of palace maids and the maids of the Nord family behind him pulled the long concentric belt on Princess Mingyue's body, and the petals in the sky fell freely, and the guests present burst into warm applause.
The engagement ceremony officially began.
The high priest of the Temple of the Goddess of Life walked out of the temple, and the guests present began to gather around Qi Bei and Princess Mingyue, and the two protagonists were naturally the focus of everyone's attention.
In the face of everyone's sincere or false congratulations, Qi Bei returned the salute one by one with a faint smile from beginning to end, and the thoughtfulness of the courtesy was impeccable, and at this time his body showed the demeanor and bearing that a child of a family should have.
Princess Mingyue also smiled reservedly, her eyes glanced at Qi Bei's smiling face from time to time, I don't know why, she always felt a little awkward when she looked at his demeanor, obviously he was a bastard, but he was pretending to be a gentleman.
At this time, the chief priest of the shrine held the sacred scripture, faced the statue of the goddess of life, and began to recite the words of blessing.
The high priest's slightly hoarse voice recited the blessing words in a peculiar rhythm of pronunciation, and the entire square, including the people watching the bustle outside the square's barrier, fell silent.
One syllable after another rushed into Qi Bei's ears as if they were tangible, causing him to have a strange feeling, as if his mind had penetrated time and space and arrived at some mysterious world.
There, a pair of autumn-like eyes were looking at him softly, with a hint of surprise.
Who is that? How can there be such beautiful eyes in this world, like a brilliant starry sky embedded in them, at a glance, it makes people feel that their souls have been sublimated.
Qi Bei's eyes widened angrily, trying to see more clearly.
It's just that at this moment, Qi Bei's whole body was shocked, and his thoughts seemed to be pulled back.
"Why are you stunned? The High Priest told us to come forward. Princess Mingyue looked at him inexplicably, just now he seemed to be out of his body.
"Oh, I was a little sleepy just now. Qi Bei shrugged his shoulders and walked hand in hand with Princess Mingyue in front of the great priest of the temple.
The high priest of the temple is a kind-faced old man, with a clean body, clear eyes, and full of life.
"You are all children of God, the goddess of life has blessed you, and the inheritance of life will continue forever. The temple priest stretched out his hand as he spoke, wiping the foreheads of Qi Bei and Princess Mingyue in the air, and suddenly, a faint light swept over the two of them.
Both Qi Bei and Princess Mingyue felt as if their bodies had been injected with extra vitality, and every pore opened comfortably.
This is the life magic that is rumored to be only used by a few great priests of the Temple of Life, and it is really unusual.
Next, the temple priest held an emerald green jade bowl, and there was a faint glowing liquid in the bowl, which was the holy water of life that many believers could not ask for, which could prolong life and drive away all diseases.
Qi Bei drank it when he was born, and he was born in the first noble family of the Golden Leaf Dynasty, and he always had privileges.
At the time of the engagement or wedding, the two of them are to drink the holy water of life together.
Ordinary people get engaged or hold a wedding in the Temple of Life, and they only preside over ordinary sacrifices, and the holy water of life they drink is actually just clear water.
"Under the statue of the goddess of life, Qi Bei. Nord, you are willing to be with the bright moon. Jin Yeyuan is committed to a lifetime, will he never abandon this life?" the temple priest looked at Qi Bei.
"I do. Qi Bei replied, although this kind of questioning made him a little uncomfortable.
"Under the statue of the goddess of life, the bright moon. Jin Ye, you are willing to work with Qi Bei. Nord is destined for a lifetime, and he will never abandon this life?" the temple priest looked at Princess Mingyue.
"I ......"
"She doesn't want to!" Just as Mingyue was about to answer, a gloomy voice suddenly sounded.
All the guests were in an uproar, and looked over for a sound, only to see a handsome young man in a purple magic robe proudly walking over.
Qi Bei half-squinted his eyes, and the corners of his mouth hooked a trace of cold arc, sure enough, this engagement ceremony will not be peaceful.
"I have no intention of blaspheming the great goddess of life, I just tell the truth, lying in front of the goddess of life is the greatest disrespect to the goddess of life, Princess Mingyue personally told me that she was only forced to marry this kid. Burning Sky said loudly.
"Who is this, so bold, even if you wear the skin of a magician, you don't look at this is a field and harmony. β
"Could it be that he is Princess Mingyue's sweetheart?"
"You know a fart, let me tell you, he is a disciple of Tongtian Mountain, one of the five holy lands of Tongtian Mountain, he is determined that His Majesty and the Nord family dare not do anything to him. β
A group of guests talked about it, and the bad roots of the surnames were due to them, and they were not only not worried, but also very excited.
The Emperor Hummos and the head of the Nord family were expressionless, as if this sudden change had nothing to do with them.
"I'm willing, I'm willing to be with Qibei. Nord engaged. At this moment, Princess Mingyue spoke, her voice was not loud, but she used magic to shake, echoing in the square for a long time.
Burning Sky's expression froze, and he suddenly felt like a fool, and he went crazy with all his might, and everyone ignored him.
The temple priest smiled and handed over the jade bowl containing the holy water of life in his hand.
Qi Bei, who was not shocked on his face, took it, drank half of it in one gulp, made the bad ground quietly spit back some more, and then handed the jade bowl to Princess Mingyue.
Princess Mingyue took it and was about to drink, but she heard the Burning Heaven Dao: "Senior sister, you have just entered Tongtian Mountain, and you may not know that the disciples of Tongtian Mountain cannot be engaged without the permission of the master. β
Princess Mingyue was stunned, Katie didn't tell her that there was such a rule, but she didn't know about her engagement.
However, Princess Mingyue was only stunned for a moment, and then directly drank the holy water of life in the jade bowl.
"Senior sister, ...... you" Burning Sky shouted in disbelief, this move was his killer move, and he naturally wouldn't be unprepared when he came over to make trouble, but who knew that he expected the reaction that the royal family and the Nord family might have, but he didn't expect Princess Mingyue's reaction.
Qi Bei glanced at Princess Mingyue in surprise, and then at the blue and white Burning Sky on his face, and suddenly felt a little sympathetic to this guy.
