“

"Marriage?!" In the hall of the Nine Dragons Mansion, several voices of surprise and surprise suddenly sounded.

"Yes......" Chen Yutian sat on the chair, with a slight hint of nervousness in his expression, and smiled bitterly, "I'm surprised, right? I didn't expect to receive such amazing news when I went home this time, and the date of engagement set by the Son of Heaven in the holy decree seems to be five days later." ”

At this time, he had already returned from the Dingguo Mansion, but Xuan Xi did not come back with him, but returned to the palace alone. This is the requirement of painting the moonlight, and it is also the meaning of the Queen Mother.

Because of the relationship between the emperor, when today's son has no other brothers and sisters except Sima Xuanxi, Xuanxi and Xuanye are both the queen mother's own, and now her daughter is about to go out of the cabinet to marry a wife, and the mother naturally wants to take a good look at her daughter before this. It's human nature. Even if Xuan Xi no longer likes to stay in the palace, he must go back at this time.

The people in the Nine Dragons Mansion who learned of this were extremely surprised at first, but after a while, they seemed to have slowly digested this amazing news, and they all came over to say hello to Chen Yutian. Although Chen Yutian responded with his mouth, his face was not half happy, but full of bitterness.

"What's wrong with you, don't you want to be engaged to Xuan Xi?" Xue Tianhan frowned slightly, looked at Chen Yutian, and asked.

Chen Yutian shook his head slightly.

Xue Tianhan said again: "Since this is the case, then why do you have a bitter face?"

As soon as a word landed, everyone's eyes were on Chen Yutian who was sitting on the chair, and for this question, they also wanted to know, why did they keep frowning and sad when they were engaged to such a happy event worth celebrating?

Chen Yutian sighed slightly, "It's nothing, I just think...... It's just early. ”

Everyone in the hall laughed dumbly, and Huo Yuanji held his forehead helplessly, "Early?"

"Yes, I'm still young, and she's still young, so it's a little too early for us to be engaged or even married at this time. Chen Yutian nodded and said seriously, "Besides, I'm not ready yet." ”

Huo Yuanji smiled helplessly: "Brother Chen, dare to ask you about your Guigeng this year?"

"Twenty is one. ”

"What about Princess Xuanxi?"

"It's about seventeen...... Chen Yutian said uncertainly, "why are you asking this?"

Huo Yuanji said with a smile: "Ordinary men can get married at about sixteen, and women can leave the cabinet after the age of marriage, you must be a lot late for these people, you still say early?"

"Forehead......" Chen Yutian was a little speechless.

Huo Yuanji's words are indeed reasonable, in the Daxuan Dynasty, where the people are not too poor, men generally have the responsibility of marrying a wife and having children to serve their parents after the coming-of-age ceremony at the age of sixteen, and women do have the ability to go out of the cabinet and teach their husbands and children after they have performed the rites at the age of fifteen.

But it's one thing to know, it's another to be receptive.

"Where is this kind of thing a matter of age...... "Chen Kun, who is the oldest and most experienced among the people, spoke, he stood up, looked at Chen Yutian with a distressed face, and asked, "Yutian, the old man asked you, do you think you have feelings for Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

"Of course. Chen Yutian replied almost without thinking.

Chen Kun asked again: "What about Her Royal Highness the princess to you?"

"It should be ......" Chen Yutian was about to answer, but was directly interrupted by Chen Kun, "Think about it......"

Chen Yutian was slightly silent, his thoughts were silent, and he couldn't help but think of the decisive and determined eyes of the girl when he was in the dungeon of Ghost Town, when he faced Ling Bian's fierce blow, the shadow that rushed forward without fear before Ling Bian's sworn blow, and the words that shook his entire heart at that time.

"Don't worry, I'll be with you. ”

A short sentence, but it revealed the girl's great and fearless determination, and it also made him feel her heart for the first time. Thinking of this, a faint smile couldn't help but appear at the corner of Chen Yutian's mouth.

Seeing this scene, Chen Kun smiled and said, "Have you figured it out?"

Chen Yutian looked up at him.

Chen Kun scolded with a smile: "Don't you understand? Since you both have some trust in each other, isn't this marriage from the Son of Heaven what you have always dreamed of? And it is also the greatest fulfillment for the two of you? Such a good opportunity may not be able to get it even if you dream of it, but now that you have it, not only are you not happy about it, but you are sad, what is the reason? Young people, you should seize the opportunity while you are young, and don't wait until you miss it in the end to regret it. Especially if this opportunity is still beneficial to you. ”

That's right!

Hearing Chen Kun's words, Chen Yutian finally figured it out. He looked at Chen Kun, his eyes flashed with essence, and he gently hugged his fist towards the old man, "I understand, thank you for your enlightenment." ”

Chen Kun stroked his white beard slightly and smiled, "Now that you have figured it out, then you should also know what you should do next." ”

"Hmm. Chen Yutian nodded, his face full of smiles.

......

......

The betrothal between the son of Dingguo Gongchen Guang and Her Royal Highness the princess Xuanxi soon spread throughout Xuandu. While the people of Xuandu blessed the couple to tie the knot, they also showed enough attention to this family business. After all, the two parties who married are not ordinary families, one side is from the royal family of today, and the other party is the son of the god of Qingtian who is alive, and such a prominent status has naturally attracted the keen attention of the people. And in the past year, Chen Yutian has repeatedly solved strange cases, and he also has a high reputation among the people, and as soon as the news spread, it almost caused a sensation in the entire Xuandu.

Three days passed slowly under this sensation.

In the past three days, Chen Yutian and the people of the Jiulong Mansion, as well as the Dingguo Mansion, were extremely busy, and the engagement banquet two days later was bound to be a sensational event in the Xuandu, so they had to be completely prepared. But at a time when the whole of Kyoto is in such a state of expectation, the Daigen Dynasty is about to welcome an uninvited guest today.

There are four holes in the city gate of Xuandu City, and the idle people inside and outside the city are all cleared by the captain of the city gate early, when the horse team that is gradually approaching appears with the crisp bell, when the people on the city gate and the city wall see the golden-topped carriage that is different from the style of the Central Plains, it is a fresh morning, and they suddenly suffocated.

The horse team slowly stepped into the city gate and came to the streets of Xuandu.

Officers and soldiers had already cleared the pedestrians on the road, and at this moment they were lined up on both sides of the road, preventing the people who were watching the excitement from continuing to move forward.

The people scrambled to look at the horse team that stepped into the Xuandu, the horse team was not in a hurry, but slowly moved forward on the street, and several carriages behind were full of exquisite boxes, which made people stop and watch at a glance. In front of the horse team, a golden-roofed carriage attracted most of the attention, and everyone looked at the carriage with a rather strange shape for the Central Plains, and their eyes were a little strange.

The knights on the horses in front of them were slightly different from the Central Plains people in terms of clothing and appearance, and they rode quietly on their horses, moving forward on the noisy but lively streets of Xuandu.

Ahead, a flag embroidered with a wolf-shaped totem flutters in the wind.

There are well-informed people, when they see this flag, they can't help but be slightly stunned, and there are more veterans who have retired and returned to their hometowns, when they see this flag, they can't help but recall the days when they were on the battlefield on the battlefield. At that time, on the battlefield, they could often see such a flag embroidered with a wolf totem, which was the enemy's flag. Seeing the same flag in different environments at this moment made these veterans quite embarrassed.

The horse team slowly walked towards the main axis of the palace.

In the Taiji Hall in the palace, Xuan Ye was sitting in danger, and the civil and military ministers below also looked solemn, as if they were waiting for something.

On the main avenue leading to the palace, the wolf banner fluttered in the wind, slowly appearing in the eyes of the dragon guards guarding the palace gate.

A moment later, the loud voice of the Yellow Gate official sounded outside the Taiji Hall.

"The envoy of the barbarian kingdom in the Western Regions is coming to meet ......"
