There were many people kneeling on the ground of the side hall, like a calm ocean, the middle-aged woman walked indifferently, the sea water naturally separated, setting off a slight wave, a eunuch leader coughed lightly, and those who knelt on the ground worship, palace maids and eunuchs quickly got up and quietly withdrew from the hall as if they were amnesty.

The leader of the eunuch had a wrinkled face and looked extremely old, but he carefully held the middle-aged woman's hand and said in a low and humble voice: "Even if there are some problems with the origin of that young man, where is it worth your bother. ”

The middle-aged woman was the Holy Queen, and listening to the old eunuch's words, she said indifferently: "If it's just an ordinary person, naturally you don't need to bother. ”

The chief eunuch knew that what the eunuch leader said was ordinary, naturally he did not mean such a trivial matter as whether he could practice, and after a little hesitation, he said: "I have checked the letter of recommendation, there is no problem, it is indeed left by the Pope that the Pope left Miss Mo Yu and the princess of Pingguo to play with...... The news from the palace that the Pope should not know about this matter, the young man should have been involved by chance, although it was unexpected to have a marriage contract with the Xu Mansion, but the old slave really couldn't see anything special about him. ”

The Holy Queen stopped, looked at the deep night behind the side hall, and after a moment of silence, asked, "Have you ever seen someone who is not afraid of death?"

The eunuch leader knew that Dao Niangniang's question must be very meaningful, and began to think seriously.

It is said that heroes in the world can be separated from life and death, but only those who have really experienced countless life and death separations understand that those lightness and lightness only rely on strong willpower to overcome the fear of death, but that fear has always been there.

The chief eunuch lived in the palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty for hundreds of years, and his power was extremely high, after the death of the emperor nearly 20 years ago, the princes of the imperial family opposed Niangniang's accession to the throne, intending to break into the palace and rebel, Niangniang was able to easily stabilize the situation, in addition to the clear support of the Pope, he also played a very key role in it.

He is a big man who has experienced countless life and death separations, and he is very sure that no one is not afraid of death, even if a great man like His Majesty Emperor Taizong is still unable to calm down on the sickbed before he dies, his eyes are staring at the stars in the night sky, full of reluctance and fear.

He was beside His Majesty at the time, and he could see the scene clearly.

"No one is not afraid of death. He said.

"There was a moment before, that young man was really not afraid of death, so he was not an ordinary person. The Holy Queen thought about what the young man had said in front of the black dragon and said, "I always thought that only the child of the Akiyama family could be worthy of that girl, but now it seems that ...... Not necessarily. ”

The leader of the eunuchs, Wei Rin, thought to himself, is Niangniang going to change her attitude towards this matter?

The side hall was quiet again.

The night breeze gently blew the flower pots outside the fence, and the green branches in the pots shook slightly, and in the distant woods, squirrels ran faster on the branches.

"Tonight's Tanabata Festival, there must be a lot of excitement outside the palace, and I'm going to go out and have a look. ”

"...... I thought you would be waiting in the palace for the results of the Ivy Feast. ”

"What are you waiting for? Which house has the best students? I don't have that interest. ”

The chief eunuch was puzzled and said, "Don't you want to know if this family affair can be done?"

The Holy Empress said: "Whether the Xu Mansion marries the Qiushan family or fulfills the promise of the year to recruit Chen Changsheng as a son-in-law is not something they can decide. ”

The chief eunuch bowed slightly and said, "Everything in the world is subject to the will of the mother. ”

The Holy Queen said calmly: "You are wrong again, this matter is not something I can decide. ”

The chief eunuch was slightly shocked, thinking to himself that apart from your old man, who can decide the direction of this marriage?

"If you want to marry someone, you will be tolerant, then, whether you want to marry or not, and who you want to marry, after all, depends on the attitude of tolerance. ”

The holy queen said, "That girl is a person with ideas, no matter how many things others do, what's the point? ”

......

......

There is a street outside the southern city of the Imperial Palace, which is a little deserted because it is too close to the Imperial City, or because there is a lot of ice to be transported here during the day, and the road is full of water marks at night, and it is so wet and cold that no one wants to set up a stall here.

This place is called Kitashinbashi, but there is no bridge, and more precisely, the arch bridge made of bluestone is fake - the Raku River goes around the edge of the imperial castle and flows slowly through the castle of Kyoto along the long causeway of seven willows, but when you come here, you go around and there is not a drop of water under the bridge.

There is a well not far from the North New Bridge, the well is full of cold, as if it is not water, but the ice that will not melt through the ages, at this time in the middle of the night, the palace in the imperial city can not shine here, the willow branches are like a dry pen dipped in ink, gently swinging around the well.

The Holy Queen Niangniang stood at the mouth of the well, holding a night pearl plucked from the Gan terrace in her hand, she reached out above the mouth of the well and let go, the night pearl instantly illuminated the wall of the well, and then quickly fell, gradually swallowed by the darkness at the bottom of the well.

I don't know how long it took to say that there was a hum from the bottom of the well, because it was too far away, the sound was not loud, it was more like the echo of the well water beating against the wall of the well, but she knew that it was not the sound of water, but the angry roar of the black dragon.

The black dragon was very angry, because it felt that the human race had deceived itself again, and it was clear that it was okay to give a night pearl, and the young man took one, so you should give me two, even if you are a woman I can't provoke, you can't bully people like this!

The Holy Queen Niangniang was a little displeased, and said: "Evil animal, that one was originally his, didn't the old dragon teach you arithmetic when you were a child?"

......

......

Chen Changsheng's arithmetic is very good, more precisely, as long as the ability related to learning, he is very strong, but the ability to recognize the way is not strong, after leaving the side hall and entering the deep palace under the night, he soon found himself lost.

The stars are in the sky, the lights are in front, he knows where the north of the road is, he can naturally determine where the south is, and even vaguely can see the lights at the Weiyang Palace, but there are many flowers and trees in the palace, and the road turns a thousand times, he is worried about meeting the guards, and he does not dare to take the main road, and he does not know how to go there.

At this time, a very slight sound sounded in the imperial garden at night.

A black sheep came out of the night, silent, as if it were part of the night.

At the beginning of the National Education Academy, Chen Changsheng had seen it, and he had also seen it outside the Weiyang Palace before, and he didn't know what it was, he was very sure that this black sheep had no ill will towards him, he thought about it and said, "You...... Want to help me?"

The black sheep looked at him quietly, then turned and walked out into the night.

Chen Changsheng didn't dare to hesitate, he hurriedly followed, before leaving, he glanced in the direction of the Southern Weiyang Palace, the place was still brightly lit, but the sound of ritual music had disappeared, where did the proposal of the Southern Mission go?

......

......

The Qingteng banquet has reached the middle stage, and the southern mission has officially begun to propose.

There are many big names in the Weiyang Palace, such as the Lishan Elder Xiaosong Palace, such as the woman from the Holy Maiden Peak, such as Mao Qiuyu, the dean of the Heavenly Dao Academy, such as Xu Shiji, such as Chen Liuwang and Mo Yu, they play different roles in the process of proposing.

There are those who are concerned, there are those who are witnesses, and there are witnesses.

The graceful music and dance in the hall had just ended, the wine and food were not yet cold, no one was raising a spoon to eat, and people were watching the room with smiles.

The head of the Akiyama family got up and began to salute, and Mo Yu expressed his gratitude on behalf of the Holy Empress Niangniang, saying that the Great Zhou Dynasty was very happy to see this marriage, and hoped that human beings could unite more closely through this marriage to better fight against the demons.

The woman in the Holy Maiden Peak is Xu Yourong's uncle, and she represents the saint of the contemporary southern sect and agrees with this family matter. Xu Shiji then got up and welcomed the arrival of all the guests from the south, and agreed to this marriage reservedly, of course, everyone knew that his reserve was pretending to be reserved.

How can a marriage be considered successful?

Beginning with the proposal, leaning over as a gift, and signing a contract, this is the engagement.

Heaven and Earth Monarch Teacher.

Now, the Holy Empress Niangniang agrees to this marriage, Xu Shiji agrees to this marriage, and the Holy Maiden of the Southern Sect agrees to this marriage.

Heaven and earth are silent, now the prince and the teacher all agree to this marriage, in everyone's opinion, this marriage is naturally completed, no one has ever thought about what Xu Yourong's attitude is towards this marriage, of course, no one thought that Xu Yourong would object.

As the most dazzling pair of men and women of the young generation in the mainland, the marriage between Xu Yourong and Akiyama-kun is a match made in heaven in the eyes of everyone, and the story between them has been circulated in the world for a long time, and everyone thinks it is the most beautiful story.

Next, there is the last question among the three questions of the engagement ceremony.

The etiquette of the Great Zhou Dynasty is not complicated, mainly from the relevant Taoist canons of the state religion, with the increasing prosperity of the state religion, the Zhou rite has also been extended to the south, and the southern mission proposes marriage tonight, completely in accordance with the Zhou rite, not purely respect for the woman, they themselves are the same.

The so-called three questions are to ask heaven and earth, ask relatives, ask the monarch, but they will oppose this marriage, and the last question is to ask the world.

The reason why there are these three questions in the Zhou ceremony, especially the last question, is to give the world the most difficult opportunity to point out the hidden problems of the man or woman, but in fact, this kind of thing rarely happens, but more like giving the man or the woman the last chance to regret it.

Under normal circumstances, there are few objections at the engagement ceremony, because it means offending both the man and the woman, and tonight it is obvious that neither party can regret the marriage, so the last question in the world is naturally a passing scene.

Chen Liuwang stood in front of the hall, looked at the hundreds of people in the hall, and asked with a smile: "Qiushan Jun wants to marry Xu Yourong, but anyone objects?"

The hall was silent, but the atmosphere was not depressing, everyone's faces were full of smiles, in such a beautiful moment, people only thought about blessings, only thought about waiting for King Chen Liuwang to ask, then got up to toast to the marriage to celebrate.

On the seat of the Anglican Academy in the corner, there was no smile on the little face, only the paleness of shock - she had untied the bag in her sleeve, looked at the marriage book that had been a little yellowed, and looked at the two names on the marriage book, she realized that her joke that day was actually true, and she finally understood what the grievances between Mr. and the Eastern Imperial God General's Mansion were, and she knew that she wanted to be absent from Mr. Mo Yu for what Mo Yu and those people tried their best to not be present......

Ask the world three times.

Chen Liuwang smiled softly and asked again, "Is there anyone who objects?"

The hall is still quiet, people's faces are full of blessed smiles, and the world is incomparably beautiful.

Chen Liuwang glanced at Xu Shiji and smiled to congratulate.

Xu Shiji stroked his short beard, no longer deliberately reserved, and nodded in greeting.

Chen Liuwang looked at the head of the Akiyama family again, smiled and nodded.

The head of the Akiyama family smiled silently, obviously extremely happy.

King Chen Liu looked into the hall and asked, "Is there anyone who objects?"

For this marriage, the whole world is in favor of it, and no one opposes it.

As a result, the whole world was quiet and beautiful, and everyone was waiting.

In the corner, Luoluo suddenly stood up.

No one noticed her.

At that moment, a voice came from outside the hall.

"I'm against it. ”

A young man walked in through the temple door.

He was soaked, his black hair was disheveled, his clothes were torn, and he looked like a mess.

He looked at the people in the main hall with bright eyes and a determined expression.

There was a sudden silence in the hall.
