Chapter 95: Battle
"Zijing, don't say that." Sheng Xuanyao took the peach blossom cake and fed it to her daughter Sheng Fei'er: "Yesterday, my father and mother chatted with her in the guest room, she was very skilled in the old history, and she was a talented girl. ”
"My clan doesn't pay attention to learning." Sheng Zijing said in a deep voice, threw a piece of meat into his mouth, and swallowed it with apricot blossom stuffing, but his eyes were as hard to remove as if he was welded to Qiong Yi.
When the banquet progresses to a strong level, the singing and dancing are leveled. Qiong didn't drink either, but she kept sitting upright for too long, and her body was a little stiff from sitting, she moved her body and heard someone ask not far from the stream: "Sect Master Sheng, what do you want to do with such a generous gift today?" ”
Sheng Shangpei only watched the wonderful dance and music on the high platform, and replied: "The child wants to propose." ”
A few simple words were like a bombshell, so shocked that everyone present cast their eyes, but Su Min stared at the stage and did not look at the Sheng seat. Mrs. Yue smiled and asked, "Could it be true that as the rumors say, the Shenglu and Lu clans are going to get married?" ”
Sheng Shangpei moved his gaze to Sheng Xuanyan, and lightly tapped his finger on the table, Sheng Xuanyan should stand up and arch his hand to Lu Bin: "Sect Master Lu." In the young son of the Xia Sheng family, Sheng Xuan, you meet your noble disciples and have feelings for each other. Today, I am willing to marry Lu Fu and often come and go. After that, he motioned to the servants behind him to open the gift box, and there were high-grade swordsmanships, exquisite elixirs that improved cultivation, and Shangqing talismans, etc., and extremely rare mortal objects such as Yeming Rhino, Flawless Bi, White Feather Bracelet, and Golden Silk Shirt...... More precious than yesterday's gifts, hard to find.
Lu Bin stroked his palm: "Sheng Xiaogongzi is really generous, my clan is naturally willing to make friends with the Sheng family and get married." Although the marriage matter is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, the marriage of my little apprentice has to rely on her own opinion. After saying that, she looked at Qiong Yi, Qiong Yi stood up and looked at Sheng Xuan, she pursed her lips, and her whole person was feverish.
Not far away, he stood under the shadow of the peach tree, the fine sunlight sprinkled on his face, he put half his hand in front of him, with a solemn posture, and asked her: "Miss Lu, are you willing to make a marriage contract with me?" ”
Qiong also saw that the first two words when he opened his mouth were calling himself, and smiled lightly, his lips trembled, but his voice was unusually clear: "Yes." ”
The crowd was in an uproar.
Lu Bin laughed: "Since I promised in vain, this marriage will be decided." Such a generous gift should be thanked to Sect Master Sheng. ”
"In the future, we will be a family, you don't have to be polite." Sheng Shangpei said lightly.
Xie Cong stroked his palms, stood up and said with a smile: "The Shenglu clan can really be a show, isn't it just to inform the people of the five clans about this by bringing the apprentices to the spring banquet?" Since you have made an appointment in private, why do you need to spread it out at this spring feast? ”
"Naturally, it's to announce the five clans, otherwise wouldn't it seem that my Sheng clan's sincerity is insufficient?" Shen Wei sneered and said: "The two clans are not aligned, but let Sect Master Xie Cong take a good look, lest someone say that my clan will form a party in private in the future, causing an imbalance between the five clans." ”
"Mrs. Sheng don't want to treat others with herself, I Xie will think like that?" Xie Cong opened the folding fan suddenly, hid his face and said with a smile: "I am fortunate to see the Sheng Lu Er clan marrying as a family, and I should have given a gift with the family, but unfortunately this announcement was in a hurry, and I didn't prepare anything." With that, he sighed lightly, his face full of regret.
"There will naturally be no shortage of opportunities to give gifts, if Sect Master Xie has the heart, he can send gifts to my Lu Mansion at any time, and I should welcome it." Yang Suyong replied with a smile in her eyes.
Sheng Xuan complained about this announcement, and the most shocked people in the audience were Su Xiaoxiao and Yue Huan, who were also acquainted with Qiong. Su Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief for some reason, and looked at the Sheng family's seat and looked at Sheng Zijing: Fortunately...... Fortunately, the matter of marrying the Lu family did not fall on Brother Axi.
After thinking about it like this, his heart condensed again: Sheng Xuan complained that he was really with this Lu girl, when Qingfeng had been studying for half a year, he had already made an appointment for life, and they were still at this banquet, they were really bold.
Yue Huan was half admiring and half envious in his heart, admiring Sheng Xuan's courage to propose marriage at the banquet, and envying him for finding a couple, so he got up and served wine and said, "Brother Sheng, Miss Lu, congratulations." ”
Qiong also stood up with Sheng Xuan to thank him, and Qiong also raised his feathers and drank sake, smelling the mellow wine, and there was some bitterness in his mouth.
I don't know how much I drink, but don't drink too much, Joan also thought to herself, only drinking sake into her stomach, not daring to drink more.
After a few dances on the stage, another drama began to sing the lyrics, and the babbling singing was long and vigorous, and the aftermath was lingering. In the stream, there are already feathers and new dishes that the attendants put into the flowing water, just bend over a little to reach, Qiong also tastes the pear snow jade crispy and delicious, and wants to wait for the wooden tray to swim close to get it but was taken away by the upstream people first, she looked up and saw that it was Lu Yanshan who grinned at herself, and sat up straight: "It's just a pastry, I don't eat it." ”
Sheng Xuan watched everything silently, put a mouthful of untouched jade crisp on his table in the running water tray and went down the river, Qiong also saw the same pastry flowing again, and was still surprised in his heart, so he raised his hand and fished it up. Clip a piece in her mouth, the sweet pear blossom smell permeates from the tip of her tongue, she picks up a piece and puts it in her mouth, her face is Sheng Xuan's joy at a glance, he held his cheeks and silently watched her throw the half-finger-long pear cake into her mouth one by one, eating is not elegant, but the eyes that are bright because of joy are shining under the eyelash flutter, teaching him how to never get tired of looking.
Qin Hanchuan saw that Sheng Xuan's eyes were about to fly to Qiong Yi's body, and said with a smile: "I don't know how to converge in public." Then he said in a low voice: "It's already your lady who hasn't passed through the door, you can look at it however you want in the future." ”
Qiong Yi is already my ......
After Qin Hanchuan said this, Sheng Xuanyan realized this later, and suddenly felt like a dream. His face was scarlet, he lowered his head to drink, and couldn't help but think about how deep and meaningful the days would be in the future, like glue, and his ears were red for a while and he didn't dare to raise his head.
The pear snow jade cake is very suitable for Qiongyi's taste, she ate extremely comfortably, and after eating, she still half held her face and tasted it, and said in her heart, this is really the best pastry she has ever eaten when she is so old.
In the distance, the sound of the high stage drama is getting farther away, the troupe takes the stage for a curtain call, everyone can't help but applaud each other, and when the singer retreats from the stage, everyone in the audience chats and has fun one after another, and the words are endless.
"Little Wu, don't drink too much wine." Lu Yuhao said, "In the afternoon, there are also fun things such as 'playing kites' and 'dotting flowers'." Hearing what he said, Qiong couldn't help but be curious, and Lu Yuhao continued: "Spring food is a matter in the middle of the mountain, and after a lunch break, the waiter will lead people to the top of this Jiuhua Mountain, and the scenery on the top of the mountain is better." ”
Joan also looked at the top of the mountain where the clouds of smoke were still shrouded, and the pink flower forest was covered with a thin veil, revealing some fairy energy, and her heart was full of anticipation.
"I remember that the reason why Mrs. Sheng was able to enter the Sheng family was because of the scenery, right?" Mrs. Xie Zhou Shuqing saw that there was no one on the high platform on one side, and then fell back to the seat by the stream: "I don't want to be this today, Miss Lu said that she would get married, as a passerby, there is a little injustice in the bottom of her heart?" ”
Qin Hanchuan responded with a smile: "Yes, madam, you have a good memory, and you still remember the events of many years ago clearly." It was really bumpy for me to marry Xuanyao back then, after all, the five clans were not close to the people in the rivers and lakes, and I had been for the 'trouble' in the rivers and lakes, the Sheng family left me, and sought revenge for the people of my valley. Now that I am a senior, I naturally hope that my brother and daughter-in-law can be less embarrassed. ”
"Senior Qin, you are extremely talented, and your cultivation is through the sky, and everything is in line with the rules of the Sheng family." Xie Yangyu, the eldest son of the Xie family, said: "It's just ...... I don't know what kind of ability this Lu girl has to enter the door of the Sheng family? With that, he cast his afterglow on Qiong Yi who was not far away.
Wearing his own clothes, he has tamed the hearts of other families.
Qiong Yi reprimanded in his heart, and smiled in the face of his provocation by name: "Gongzi Xie, don't despise me because you have never heard of my name." ”
Xie Yangyu saw that she didn't say a word, and now she finally spoke: "Oh? Miss Lu has any skills, you might as well talk about it. ”
The eyes of several sect masters present fell directly on Qiong Yi, except for Lu Sheng and the two sect masters, all of them were in a wait-and-see state. Qiong also knew that Xie Yangyu was a clear provocateur, and it was difficult to ride a tiger if he took it, and if he didn't take it, he would be ridiculed as a joke.
She had long guessed that she would be troubled because of her "identity" and "rules", and she knew that she would not let it go.
"If you just say that everyone is a handsome person, Gongzi Xie will not believe it easily. Since you want to consider me, the rules are up to you, and I don't care. ”
"Sect Master Lu, you beloved disciple has such a big breath!" Sect Master Yue Yue couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's an interesting thing to have a strong temperament. ”
Lu Bin just laughed and didn't answer.
Xie Yangyu arched his hand to Sheng Shangpei and said, "Sect Master Sheng, I am offended. I heard that the Sheng family has strict rules, and never leaves useless people, if you don't compete with this Lu girl, how can you know how she cultivates and what her strength is, and she can come to this spring banquet, and even the marriage contract has to compete for Miss Lu's position. ”
Lu Yanshan raised her head and said with a smile: "So, Gongzi Xie, are you planning to have a competition with her Lu Xiyan?" He also said: "Gongzi Xie has the heart to complain for me, and I have to say thank you, but this marriage contract is that the two of them are like-minded, and it has nothing to do with me, and I hope that everyone will not mention me again when they talk about this matter in the future." ”
Xie Yangyu bowed and apologized, and then looked at Qiong Yi: "How, Miss Lu, while there is no one in this martial arts platform, you and I will have a martial arts competition to make a few sect masters interesting." ”
Qiong Yi raised his sword and stood up: "Gongzi Xie took the initiative to ask for battle, but Lu couldn't ask for it." Is there a reward for winning or a penalty for losing? ”
Listening to Qiong also talk about winning or losing, Xie Yangyu replied: "The winner has no reward, and the loser will be punished with three cups."
"It's a deal." Qiong also turned around and looked at Master Lu Bin, Lu Bin didn't say a word, and his eyes were clearly saying that he wanted to teach this troublemaker a good lesson, and he should come back beautifully.
She nodded.
"Young Master Xie and Miss Lu are the same age, right?" Mrs. Yue rolled up her cloud sleeves and poured wine for Yue Yu and asked. Yue Huan, the eldest son on the side, replied, "Yes, mother, the two are the same age and have the same qualifications." He added: "The last time I competed with Brother Xie was three years ago, and at that time, his swordsmanship had been slightly successful, and he had mastered it, but I don't know how powerful it is now." As for Miss Lu, she has practiced the sword chasing well, and the child has already learned it when she was in Qingfeng's martial arts. ”
"Big brother, who do you think will win?" Yue Huan's sister Changle asked.
"Lu Xiyan is not my opponent, so I bet on Brother Xie." Yue Huan replied.
