Chapter 12: Ten Thousand Years at a Glance (2)
In front of the hall, after Xiao Wu thanked him, he stood up and replied: "After returning to the demons, this time I came to Da Jingyang Palace, it was my father who came to pay homage to the demon king, and by the way, I took Xiao Wu out to open my eyes and gain a long insight."
After listening to this, the demon queen Ling Xuan knew that the little girl didn't know anything, which was similar to what she guessed, after all, she didn't admire the saint's name, but there were still parents who considered her daughter for life, and she apologized a lot to the little girl for leaving home at a young age.
The Demon Queen's tone was more gentle, and she asked, "Xiao Wu, what do you usually like to do the most?"
"I like it the most, playing with my friends!"
As soon as Xiao Wu's words came out, everyone who heard it couldn't help laughing, including the Demon King, the Demon Queen and the two princes. Xiao Wu looked around with big eyes, and added, "Oh, of course...... You have to complete your schoolwork according to the requirements of the queen mother."
Seeing her innocent and cute appearance, everyone laughed again.
The eldest prince Cheng Lie interjected, "Do you like the Great Jingyang Palace, would you like to live here?"
"Hmm?...... Oh, it's beautiful, it's lively, and it's fun, but I can't live here, I'm going to stay in the clan and protect the clan", Xiao Wu replied very cheerfully and seriously
"Protecting the clansmen?"
"Yes, my Bailu clan has lived alone for generations, the clan has a soft temperament, not martial arts, and in the face of foreign toughness, I feel deep pressure and harassment...... Xiao Wu can only learn martial arts well, and share the burden for his father and queen mother, I have the responsibility to protect my homeland", Xiao Wu replied solemnly, no longer like a child who was still childlike just now.
Cheng Lie glanced at his nervous younger brother Mu Bai and continued to ask, "If there is another way to keep your clan from being disturbed, would you like to come here?"
Mu Bai's eyes were staring at Xiao Wu tightly, his teeth were biting his lower lip, and his nervous hands were clenched together, he was too afraid that Xiao Wu would say that he didn't want to.
"Yes!"
Xiao Wu replied happily, and the Demon King, Demon Queen, and Cheng Lie saw Mu Bai take a long breath, and a smile appeared on his face.
"There will be a way...... Spread the word that the head of the Wuling clan would come forward and reply", the eldest prince Cheng Lie ordered softly to the guards beside him, he knew in his heart that Xiao Wu was talking about the harassment, it should be from the Wuling clan.
After only a while, he walked quickly to the front of the hall, and knelt down in fear and saluted: "The lord of the Wuling Clan, meet the demon king, the demon queen, and the two princes."
Cheng Lie looked down at the Underworld, and said with a straight face: "Downfall, I order your clan, from today onwards, to protect the White Deer Clan on the periphery, no longer be disturbed by any foreign intrusion, and ensure the safety of his clan...... If there is anything missing, you are the only one who asks!".
Shen Xuan concluded that it was Lu Xiaowu who sued him, for thousands of years, he tried his best to stammer, this state will definitely leave a bad impression on the demon king, he hated Xiao Wu in his heart, and replied in fear: "Yes!
"Okay, you can go down"
"Yes, the minister retired"
When Ming Xuan left, Cheng Lie looked at Xiao Wu and said with a smile: "Look, now that the problem is solved, you can rest assured that you can come to live in Da Jingyang Palace...... Oh, I heard that you have read quite a few books too, so you can sit down next to the second prince and see who reads more?"
"Good!"
Xiao Wu saw Cheng Lie sternly facing Mingyun, and felt very relieved, so she returned to her usual lively appearance, and while answering, she walked over happily and sat down next to Mu Bai.
As soon as he sat down, Xiao Wu stretched out his hands to hold one of Mu Bai's hands, and asked, "You don't seem to be wearing much now, aren't you cold?"
After Xiao Wu finished speaking, he beckoned and told the palace maid behind him to get the blanket and help cover it on Mu Bai's legs. Xiao Wu's hand kept holding Mu Bai's hand to warm him, and he sat closer to him, as if he wanted to transmit the heat on his body to Mu Bai.
Mu Bai kept smiling and watching Xiao Wu busy with work, thinking that she was at her mercy. He and her are not the slightest bit angry and uncomfortable, he likes the feeling of being with her, very happy, very warm, very energetic, and very happy......
During the banquet, Mu Bai would sometimes hand Xiao Wu some food, and watched her feast, and took out a handkerchief to help Xiao Wu wipe her mouth, and her flashing eyes were full of warmth.
The two talked softly, and occasionally Xiao Wu would whisper in Mu Bai's ear, Mu Bai grinned very happily, presumably talking about something very fun.
When he was bored, Xiao Wu took out two glass balls from his arms and asked Mu Bai to guess which hand it was? How many are they? Wrong, Xiao Wu punished himself for drinking, and Mu Bai couldn't stop him, but Xiao Wu didn't let Mu Bai drink the penalty wine.
The two teenagers smiled and played as if no one was around, completely ignoring His Highness's jealousy, surprise, confusion and other emotions. All these actions fell into the eyes of the Demon King, the Demon Queen and Cheng Lie, and they would all smile when they looked at each other......
Seeing that Xiaolu kept drinking, Cheng Lie was worried and curious, "Xiao Wu, children drinking, isn't it okay?"
"Oh, there's nothing bad about it, my White Deer clan is good at making wine, and I grew up drinking wine...... Brother Eldest Prince, I salute you, thank you for helping the White Deer Clan just now", Xiao Wu said as she did it all with a refreshing finish.
Xiao Wu actually called the eldest prince his brother familiarly, it stands to reason that this is a big disrespectful crime, but for the sake of Mu Bai and the little girl being happy together, who cares about this matter.
"Okay!", the eldest prince also drank it all heartily, and looked at Xiao Wu's eyes, which was also a little more spoiled.
Speaking of the eldest prince Chenglie's kindness to the second prince Mubai, it is really good from the bottom of my heart!
Cheng Lie was a young drunk demon king, and he was born to a maid who was fortunate to have lost his temper, and his biological mother died early due to illness. After that, the demon king Fu Minghuan married the demon queen Ling Xuan, and Cheng Lie was handed over to the demon queen to raise and educate, and the demon queen regarded Cheng Lie as her own, and the mother and son had a very close relationship.
Demon queen Ling Xuan was not suitable for the environment of the demon world, her body was counterattacked, and she was weak and unable to get pregnant for a long time, and then she struggled to find a son, which was Mu Bai.
Mu Bai has been sick since birth, the demon king is busy with government affairs, the demon queen is sick, and he doesn't have much energy to take care of Mu Bai, Cheng Lie's eldest brother takes care of Mu Bai like a father and a mother, Cheng Lie cherishes Mu Bai like his own eyes, that is really in his hand for fear of falling, and holding it in his mouth for fear of melting.
The Demon Queen Ling Xuan was counterattacked because she was originally a flower fairy in the Heavenly Realm, and her body was very uncomfortable in the Geographical Realm.
When the Demon Lord was still the Prince of the Demon Realm, one day, he rode through Bixia Lake and saw a beautiful fairy dressed in a golden feather robe, dancing lightly on the lake.
I don't know where the water fairy comes from? The demon king Fu Minghuan was deeply attracted, and when he asked, he knew that this woman in feather was a Lingbo fairy.
The Lingbo fairy is fragrant, and the jade pavilion is lovely.
The fragrant and fragrant Limbo fairy was drunk with the amorous son, and it fell in love at first sight and fell in love with the Limbo fairy. Fu Minghuan lived on the shore of Bixia Lake and accompanied the beautiful woman every day.
Ling Xuan, the fairy of Lingbo, also secretly promised this ambitious, burly, handsome and affectionate prince of the Demon Realm, that they were happy with each other and had a lasting love.
At that time, Tianjun also had a long-term love for Ling Xuan, the fairy of Lingbo, and wanted to accept him as a side concubine, and obstructed the relationship between the two of them everywhere, but the love between the two was stronger than Shi.
Later, Ling Xuan resolutely married into the demon clan, and the Heavenly Monarch angrily withdrew Ling Xuan's immortal status, and he was never allowed to set foot in the heavenly court, and he also sent Ling Xuan's family to discourage.
Fu Minghuan later ascended the throne, Ling Xuan became the queen, and the demon king only married her in his life, and he loved her alone.
Bai Shi, who was sitting in the corner, had been uneasy since the high priest came to shout Xiao Wu. Because the distance was too far, and the sound of toasting and music were mixed, Bai Shi couldn't hear what Xiao Wu said in front of the hall at all? The grade was too low and he didn't dare to rush forward, so he could only keep staring at the movement in front of the hall from afar.
The Shadow was transmitted to the front of the temple, and when he came back, he was angry, and Shiraishi was even more nervous. He was afraid that Xiao Wu would not know the depth and cause trouble to the Bailu clan. Baishi hated in his heart, and he must be punished heavily when he goes back, this daughter who is self-righteous and daring.
Until the end of the banquet, the selection of the saintess was not announced, but the Stygian and Shiraishi got a message that they would go to the side hall to meet the demon king.
After Xiao Wu and everyone knocked on the demon king, they also said goodbye to Cheng Lie and Mu Bai.
When Xiao Wu was about to turn around to leave, Mu Bai suddenly grabbed Xiao Wu's hand, took off the jade recipe he was wearing from his neck, put it on Xiao Wu's neck, and stuffed the jade recipe into her inner robe, and said in a serious voice: "Xiao Wu, this jade recipe is given to you, and you will wear it close to your body in the future, remember! Never take it down, it will protect your safety! Can you remember?"
This piece of jade is a sacred relic of the demon race, it is the treasure that the demon king personally asked for his son Mubai, the jade trick can not only prevent the intrusion of evil spirits such as demons and ghosts, but also show the prohibition and protection at the moment of fear of the owner, and it is also a symbol of status, with this trick, you can get the most comprehensive protection everywhere in the demon world, and go unimpeded.
"Well, remember, thank you Mubai!"
Hearing Xiao Wu call his name, Mu Bai glanced at Cheng Lie, smiled embarrassedly, and then asked with some loss: "Xiao Wu, you don't have anything, do you want to give it to me?"
Xiao Deer Gu thought about it with big eyes, stretched out his hand and handed the two glass balls they were playing with just now in the palm of his hand to Mu Bai, and asked, "Is this okay?"
Mu Bai smiled and nodded, and took the ball. Watching Xiao Wu walk away in despair, he hoped that Xiao Wu could look back nostalgically like himself. But she didn't, she happily ran to her little friend and jumped away.
This scene, Cheng Lie, who was pushing the cart, saw that his younger brother who was as bright as the moonlight was depressed, so he asked in a low voice: "You, like, this little thing with no conscience?"
Mu Bai's white face suddenly flushed, and he nodded embarrassedly at the eldest brother.
In the side hall of the Netherworld Hall, both the Styx and the White Stone knelt in front of the Demon King.
The Demon King sat behind the desk, pondered for a while, and spoke loudly, "Baishi, this king summoned you today to tell you that this king thinks your daughter is very smart and clever. At present, the second prince is weak and needs to be taken care of, and your daughter's fate is compatible with the second prince, so choose your daughter to enter the palace to accompany her in ten days."
"Huh? This ......"
The Demon King didn't let the surprised Baishi continue, and continued: "After all, it is a daughter's family, and in order to prevent people from speaking, it can be regarded as an explanation for your clan, so this king simply gave him a marriage...... Sign the marriage contract today, I don't know what you think?".
"Huh!?"
Bai Shi was shocked again and again by the words of the Demon King, and he suddenly felt a little confused, how could such a thing happen?
The Demon King was very displeased with Baishi's obviously unacceptable performance, he turned to the Stygian and said in a cold voice: "Stygian, I called you here to let you come to be a witness."
"Yes, the king, the minister represents the Wuling clan and the White Deer clan, thank you for the king Longen!", Mingyun had mixed feelings in his heart, and he replied with mixed feelings.
This happened too suddenly, Shiraishi's face was heavy, hesitating, and he didn't know how to refuse politely?
The Demon King pondered for a moment, looked at the Immortal and said, "Immortal, just now the eldest prince ordered you to take care of and protect the Bailu clan, that's also what this king meant, you must do your best...... All the burden of requisition is waived, and if there is any need, you can submit it to the table separately."
He hurriedly turned his head and replied, "Yes, the minister will obey the will of the demon king."
Hearing these words, where did Bai Shi dare to disobey, said half a "no" word, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Thanks to the demon king, the little girl is not vulgar, and can read to the second prince, and get the king's marriage, it is the great blessing of the little girl, and it is also the glory of my Bailu clan, Bai Shi knocks on the demon king's grace!"
"Very good, then let's sign the marriage contract"
The chamberlain handed over the marriage contract that had been prepared a long time ago, Shiraishi reluctantly signed, and the two thanked him and withdrew, and Shiraishi was already sweating profusely.
Bai Shi was in front of the gate of Da Jingyang Palace and found a few people who were waiting for him. Bai Shihei had a calm face, Xiao Wu and the others were not happy to see him, they didn't dare to ask more, and naturally they didn't dare to make any more trouble, and the group returned to Luming Valley together.
Back in the Bailu Clan, Xiao Wu was dragged by Baishi, entered the inner hall and saw the queen's voice, and ordered Xiao Wu to kneel and say to herself, what has she done in Da Jingyang Palace?
After figuring out all the ins and outs, the angry queen scolded loudly, "Evil obstacles!", and slapped Xiao Wu twice. It was Cui'er who interceded that allowed Xiao Wu to be exempted from family law again.
When things get to this point, what can be done?
Bai Shi and Liuxiang sighed for a long time, they really didn't want Xiao Wu to be so young, so they left them to be an accompaniment, and married a sick and weak prince of the Demon King's family in the future, which was not what they wanted to see.
Ten days later, Cui'er took two entourages and accompanied Xiao Wu to Da Jingyang Palace as promised. Before leaving, the queen was full of thousands of reminders, ten thousand instructions to pay attention to this, to pay attention to that, full of unease.
In the end, the family had to say goodbye with tears. This is also the first time that Xiao Wu knows that the taste of separation is uncomfortable, and she cried a lot.
