Chapter 39: Chang'an's Wedding

Chang An walked out of Yan Sihai's house and walked aimlessly in the house.

Coming and going on the road.

Cooks, sweepers, carpenters, gardeners, maids, housekeepers.

As far as Chang An knows, there are roughly these types of subordinates in the house.

"Uncle Fu!"

Chang An summoned Chang Fu and asked

"In recent days, what new things have been added to the house?"

Chang Fu has been busy decorating the house recently, and when he heard Chang An's call, he ran over panting.

"The head of the family, the things that have been added to the house recently are all commonly used in wedding banquets, and Tailor Liu has customized wedding dresses, dragon and phoenix sedan chairs, cloth window flowers, candles, and ordered a lot of wine."

Chang An asked again

"In the past month, how many people have come to the house?"

Chang Fu thought about it for a moment

"Counting the cook, nine people, the Jiangnan cook was recruited by the old lady last month, and the other eight people were all newly recruited in recent days for the marriage of the head of the family."

"The four maids are for Miss Chu, because there is not enough manpower, and four more family members have been added."

Chang Fu paused and said

"Do you need me to call them all?"

Chang An waved his hand

"Where they are, I'll see for myself."

Chang Fu said

"Two of them clean in the north wing, one is watering the flowers in the yard, and the other is working as a buddy in the account room."

Chang An nodded, and then walked towards the account office.

The Chang family is a family of businessmen, although Chang An rarely manages things, but he also basically knows that the Chang family has done well in recent years, and it can be regarded as all over the country.

Therefore, in recent years, the flow of water in the house has increased rapidly, and even the number of bookkeepers has increased.

The five or six gentlemen were very busy, and a young man with a young face was serving them tea and water.

Although there are a few more gentlemen in the account room, the person in charge is still Lao Zhou.

One of the bookkeepers looked impatient and shouted loudly at the little guy.

"Xiao Zhang, what about Lao Zhou, why haven't you come back, we're dying of busyness here."

The little guy named Xiao Zhang hurriedly ran over and laughed

"Mr. Zhou was called by the head of the family."

The gentleman was obviously very hot-tempered, and said angrily

"Then what should we do here, there are so many accounts waiting for him to check!"

"What's the account, I'll take a look."

Chang An walked in with a smile.

"The head of the house."

Several people stood up.

"You all do things, leave me alone."

Chang An looked inside the room, there was an empty space in the middle, and a thick ledger was stacked in front of it.

"This is Lao Zhou's position."

Chang An pointed to the position.

Xiao Zhang ran over and nodded

"Yes, the head of the house."

Chang An walked to the position, opened the top book, and looked through it.

It's full of the expenses of the house in the last few days.

Slightly surprised, he didn't expect it to cost so much money to get married.

"Is this all the last few days?"

Xiao Zhang said

"Yes, this is this year's ledger."

Chang An raised his eyebrows

"You know a lot."

Xiao Zhang said modestly

"I'm Mr. Zhou's buddy, and I've learned a lot from Mr. Zhou."

Chang An looked at it casually, felt bored, and left.

He walked to the north courtyard again and saw the two faces cleaning the north courtyard.

"The head of the house."

The two saw Chang An.

Chang An nodded and smiled

"You go on."

The two of them were also not very old, but they were obviously burly compared to Xiao Zhang in the account room, especially one of them, with heavy feet and steady breathing, like a practicing family.

"What's your name?"

The man replied

"The villain's name is Cheng Ping."

Chang An asked again

"Have you practiced martial arts?"

Cheng Ping was stunned for a moment, and then said

"When I was a child, my family opened a martial arts gym and studied for a while, but then it was abandoned."

After another moment, Chang An came to the courtyard, and the gardener Lao Wang was sighing and shaking his head

"Alas, what a wreck."

There was also an old man on the side, comforting him

"Lao Wang, it's not your fault."

Chang An looked around, the flowers in the garden were a little wilted and listless.

Remembering what Zhuang Zhiyu said a few days ago, he smiled at the moment, shook his head and muttered to himself

"Lao Yan, Lao Yan, you are really where you go."

Chang An searched for a long time, but couldn't find the four maids, so he called Chang Fu again

"Uncle Fu, what about the four new maids?"

Chang Fu patted his head and said

"Master of the family, I forgot, that day, Miss Chu came here and said that since the maid was for her, she would bring it back."

Chang An frowned

"When?"

Chang Fu replied

"After you and Miss Chu left that day, what her maid said, I thought it was nothing, so she took it away."

Chang An smiled bitterly and said to himself

"Leaving me away is to take away those four maids, have you found something?"

In the courtyard, there was a sudden smell of wine.

Chang An sniffed

"What kind of wine is this?"

I felt that the taste was different from the sake I usually drink.

Lao Yan walked over with a wine jug, which exuded a unique medicinal smell.

"You've got some good stuff again."

Lao Yan said mysteriously

"I went to the cellar to steal a jar of wine and added my unique prescription, how about it, do you want to try it?"

"What you give yourself to drink will naturally not be bad."

Yan Sihai threw the wine to Chang An, who took the wine and poured it into his mouth.

After taking two sips, his expression suddenly became weird, not delicious, but not difficult to drink, the taste of wine is still there, but there is a strong smell of medicine.

Not far away, Lao Zhou's begging for mercy came from the living room

"Madam, please let me go this time, I have an old and a young ,......"

Yan Sihai sneered and poured another sip of wine.

"This guy, when he is greedy, why don't you think about the old and the young."

…………

On the tenth day of February, the sky was just dawning.

Chang An was sitting in the house in a red wedding dress, Lin Xinyue and the matchmaker, Chang Sheng and others pushed the door in.

The matchmaker had a standard smile on her face

"Gentleman, are you ready?"

Chang An stood up, smiling, dressed in a red robe, and the spring breeze was blowing in his face.

The Chu family villa is a hundred miles away, and in order to facilitate the welcome of relatives, the Chu family has already purchased a house in Qingzhou City.

It is only separated by two streets in Changfu.

Outside the Chu family's mansion, the earth-shattering gong rang from far and near.

The light in the east had already shown its head, and the silent street was ignited by the sudden sound of suona and firecrackers.

Chang An came to the Chu family's mansion, in front of Miss Chu's boudoir.

"Squeak."

The door was gently pushed open.

A faint body fragrance came to the face, and everyone gathered around the bride out of the pavilion.

The red dress is wrapped around the body, and the twists and turns of the skirt are like ripples, and the swing is like moonlight pouring on the ground, spreading more than three feet.

The three thousand green silk is tied up by a hair band, with a golden phoenix crown on his head, and a phoenix belt with gold wire trim on the waist, which outlines the exquisite figure just right.

Gently stretched out his onion-like fingers, waiting for the groom's response.

The groom smiled, took the bride's jade hand, and walked towards the door.

Outside the door, the sound of gongs, drums and suona rose again, the golden boy got on the horse, and the jade girl entered the sedan chair.

The welcoming team marched to the front of the Changfu, the sound of firecrackers came and went, Lin Xinyue led the people of the Changfu and waited in front of the door for a long time.

After the greeting is over, it is time to welcome the guests.

At this time, the sky is already bright, and the guests are coming to the door one after another.

Today's Chang'an wedding, many old friends on the rivers and lakes came to congratulate.

"Jiangnan Salt Gang 36 village masters, Lian Congyun, send congratulatory gifts, a pair of Nanhai jade Ruyi!"

"The lord of the Guigu Valley, Ji Rufeng, send a congratulatory gift, a longevity pill!"

"Daomen, send a congratulatory gift, a hundred-year-old ginseng fruit!"

"Jiajiazhuang, send a congratulatory gift, a hundred taels of gold!"

"Sword Pavilion, send a congratulatory gift, a piece of Xuantie!"

……

When the guests entered the house, it was noon, Chang An was dressed in a wedding dress, standing in the center of the auditorium, and the crowd was surging, looking forward to the most important scene.

Worship heaven and earth.

The celebrant cleared his throat and shouted

"The bride is invited!"

Five maids, accompanied by the bride, gently moved the lotus steps and slowly stepped into the center of the auditorium.

Everyone around them was beaming with joy and expectant eyes on the two people in the auditorium.

There were also children who kept squatting down and peeking at the bride's face under the big red hijab.

But at this moment, a faint red mist slowly drifted into the auditorium.

A child in the crowd pointed to the red mist and excitedly tugged at the sleeve of the adult next to him

"Daddy, daddy, look, is that auspicious?"

The crowd was immersed in the joy of watching the ceremony, attracted by the child's words.

only to find that at some point, there was a faint red mist in the auditorium.

"What is this?"

At this time, the bride, who was walking towards the center of the auditorium, suddenly stopped, and then, she seemed to lose her strength all of a sudden, and her whole body went limp.

Around the bride, two of the five maids suddenly showed ruthlessness, picked up the bride and rushed out of the hall.

But all the people present today have come to many first-class players in the rivers and lakes, and they will not be allowed to escape.

said that it was too late and that it was fast, even Congyun and Ji Rufeng smiled heartily, their bodies rolled in the air, and they landed at the door, stopping the two maids.

But when the two of them landed, they felt dizzy and staggered, and they also collapsed to the ground.

The two maids sneered and quickly jumped out of the auditorium.

At the same moment, everyone in the hall fainted, and for a while, the auditorium was full of people.

Chang An's face was solemn, he unfolded the body protection qi wall, and quickly chased after him.

When he stepped out of the auditorium, he saw that the entire Changfu was filled with a red aura.

Yan Sihai ran over and said

"You go after people, and I'll take care of them."

Chang An nodded, the fish jumped up, stood on a high place, and looked at the three figures that kept jumping away in the distance.

was about to chase after him, but he suddenly felt a chill down his back, and Sen Leng's killing intent came from behind.

Chang An relied only on his intuition and quickly left the place.

And he left with his front foot, and with his back foot, a silver ray pierced where he had been standing.

I saw that the figure covered its mouth and nose with a black cloth, but its face was surprised

"No way, how can you still move!"

Chang An couldn't really see the man's face, but he could make out his voice, which was his confidence in his ear.

He was also very surprised, he clearly heard that the voice was the old man next to the gardener Lao Wang yesterday.

"The new gardener."

Chang Anxin was shocked, looked at the red mist in this mansion, and asked

"What is this?"

The old man looked fierce and said in a low voice

"You don't know what it is, and why it's not poisoned."

After speaking, the figure of the old man disappeared into the red mist, and when he saw that he couldn't hit it, he hid his figure directly.

Always look around.

"Wow!"

In an instant, the old man's sword struck again silently, and the sword was so fast, so ruthless, and so accurate, it can be said that it is rare in the world.

But Chang An is now one of the seven masters in the world.

No matter how weird this old man's body is and how fast he is with his sword, the innate gap is too big.

Chang An sneered, and the wall of body protection qi slowly stretched out, and the sword only stabbed two feet outside Chang An's body before stopping.

The old man was frightened for a while, and he didn't wait for Chang An to fight back, but he was hidden in the red mist.

Chang An's sneer spread through the air

"If I expect it to be true, you should be a certain landlord on the twelfth floor, the twelfth floor is really worthy of its name, and the art of assassination is unparalleled in the world."

The old man's voice echoed in the house

"Hahahaha, Chang An, if you want to save the eldest lady of the Chu family, you will exchange it with the sword of the sword god, if you think about it, three months later, the twelfth floor will be waiting for you."

The old man's aura disappeared completely, Chang An could no longer detect a trace of killing intent, looked into the distance, and looked at the three people who were still in sight, but they were already far away.

Chang An's face was solemn and he returned to the auditorium.

In the auditorium, Chang An saw that Yan Sihai was treating everyone.

I saw him pick up the flask he was carrying, and look at each of them to fill a small sip of wine.

In the jug, there was a faint smell of medicine.

The person who had drunk the wine slowly woke up after a while.

Chang An looked at Yan Sihai coldly and said

"Since this wine is an antidote, why didn't you tell me yesterday, since the wine in your hand can detoxify, you must know where this red mist comes from."

Yan Sihai said lightly

"I've been carrying the black pot for so many days, and I only figured it out recently."

Chang An frowned, carrying the black pot?

He suddenly remembered the old assassin, who hid his form and turned into a gardener.

"Flowers in the yard!"

He quickly ran to the courtyard, only to see that the flowers and plants in the courtyard had long since lost their vitality, but in a hidden corner of the courtyard, a delicate red flower was emitting a red mist.

Yan Sihai walked slowly

"This is Manju Sawa, it will absorb life force, grow rapidly in an extreme time, and when the flowers bloom, it will release a red poisonous mist, and when you smell it, your whole body will be weak and fall into an illusion."

Chang An looked at the withered flowers in the garden and was shocked.

What Zhuang Zhiyu said a few days ago is still vivid

"Brother Chang, look at it, the flowers in this yard have been poisoned by him."

He recalled the pot of Junzi Orchid he saw in Yan Sihai's house a few days ago, and secretly scolded himself for being careless.

If Yan Sihai sabotaged, how could the Junzilan in his house be born so well, wouldn't he be the first to be poisoned by him.

Yan Sihai said

"I just made a choice for you, and now you have to return the favor to me and find someone for me."

Chang An was silent, only then did he understand Yan Sihai's thoughts, this old fox was so shrewd, how could he not understand the power of it, in the end, he might have helped a lot.
