144. The bride of the river (below)

Piracy not fixed)

"According to God's decree, on the first day of the next month, the government will hold a wedding according to the wedding ceremony of the married daughter. The bride wears a gold and phoenix crown with treasure on her head, 16 pairs of gold dragon and phoenix bracelets on both wrists, a gilt gold belt, and a two-foot-seven-inch gold-inlaid jade Ruyi in her arms, and travels to the middle of the river in a pine and cypress boat. Hebo would marry her there. The Great Witch continued.

The pine and cypress branches and leaves are sparse, and they are not the material for shipbuilding at all, and the pine and cypress boat will sink if it can't reach the middle of the river, not to mention that there are so many things to wear. The so-called Hebo marrying the bride is not to sink the young woman into the river and drown, so that her dead will always be trapped at the bottom of the river.

It sounds good, but it's a blatant murder!

Lu Jiaxi's face instantly lost blood, she came here without regard for the etiquette of the name and etiquette, and stayed in the palace to see people's faces, but it was not to be a ghost bride. She looked at Ye Yao nervously, if she insisted on choosing someone to sacrifice to Hebo, her possibility was much greater than that of the prospective princess.

"Ridiculous—"

Meng Xu'an slapped it on the case, and the light brown tea spilled out of the lamp.

"As a god, you should protect the people. How can you be a river god if you are so cruel to life?!"

The county guards were instantly nervous, and they all showed frightened looks. Such words, if detected by the gods, are very disrespectful.

"Lord Wang, there is a precedent for this matter!"

A gray-bearded county guard stood up and said solemnly: "Forty years ago, there was a torrential rain in northern Henan, and the embankment of the Baili River in ten counties along the river was in danger. Fortunately, Hebo appeared and asked the government to dedicate it to the bride. In order to show his awe, the king of Yuzhou at that time endured the pain and sacrificed his own daughter...... Three days after the wedding, the Yellow River seized the Huai, and the flood bypassed the ten counties in northern Henan, and hundreds of thousands of people in the local and downstream areas were safe and sound. ”

As soon as his words came out, Meng Xu'an's face immediately changed. If the king of Yuzhou can sacrifice to the county lord, his own quasi-princess, or the daughter of an important minister in the court, what reason should he not sacrifice? If he refuses, he will have a resentment in his life, and he will not be able to protect the people.

Ye Yao was a little skeptical, not to mention whether Hebo had the right to change the course of the river, after the Yellow River seized the Huai, how many fertile fields in the downstream Xu and Yang prefectures were affected and the people died, and the disaster was just changed places, and it was not avoided at all.

Yu Yi, Yu Yi, maybe the disaster area was not in northern Henan, he just took the opportunity to seek some personal gains. The god of the great river did such a thing...... When my father found out, he wouldn't spare him.

Meng Xu'an looked at Lu Jiaxi, she left home and came here in a bad mood, and she couldn't let her suffer any damage, otherwise she wouldn't be able to explain to Changtinghou.

Although "Ye Yao" is a puppet person, it is also fate that it can return safely. She is also her own quasi-princess, which is about royal face. Moreover, there is something wrong with her today, it seems that she ...... It's not "Ye Yao", but it's more like Ye Yao.

"It happened suddenly, and this king needs to think again. "When the fever first subsided, he still felt a little headache.

"Lord, it will be the first day of the new year in three days, so you can't hesitate more! Please decide on the bride as soon as possible, and the ministers will immediately handle the marriage to meet Hebo's requirements." The old county guard knelt down sharply.

The other county guards knelt down in unison, "Please make a decision!"

"Please save the people!"

......

"Sister......" Lu Jiaxi pulled Ye Yao's sleeve and almost cried. Even the county lord is not immune, what can she do as a Houfu lady?

Thinking about it, she was also aggrieved, she gave up her family to come here for love, and stayed in the palace without a name or point, just to stay by her beloved's side. Although the trick of pulling "Ye Yao" into the water is a bit damaged, but mortals, the six roots are not pure, and selfishness is difficult to break, which can be regarded as "extenuating circumstances". Although she has good water skills, it is almost impossible to escape under the control of Hebo.

"Lord Wang, Great Witch, Lords. Ye Yao suddenly spoke.

There was a sudden silence in the hall.

She glanced at Meng Xu'an and said unhurriedly: "I am not married to the prince, and I am actually not a proper princess." Your Majesty and the prince treat me well, and this kind of sacrifice and dedication is naturally incumbent on the people's daughters. ”

"Ye Yao, you step aside. Meng Xu'an's fingertips moved.

Ye Yao turned to him, "Just ask the prince to do one thing for me, and the little girl will have no regrets." ”

didn't listen to the control at all, was the Great Elder's spell ineffective, or was she not "Ye Yao" at all?

Meng Xu'an sighed, "What's the matter?"

"The matter between you and me is still good at night. Ye Yao turned around and saluted respectfully: "Dawu and all the adults just need to prepare for the wedding. Three days later, the folk girl Yeyao must get on the sedan chair on time. ”

Listening to the county guards discussing the preparations for the wedding and dealing with the official business accumulated for several days, when Meng Xu'an returned to the inner courtyard, it was already late at night.

The west side hall, the residence of the princess-to-be, is lit with a warm yellow light.

waved away the maidservant, pushed open a door, walked through the entrance, and walked into the inner room, only to see Ye Yao dressed in bed clothes, long hair scattered, sitting on the edge of the couch and studying a fan against the yarn lamp.

He walked up briskly and threw her onto the couch at once.

"Ahh

Ye Yao was startled and instinctively kicked out.

Meng Xu'an rolled over to dodge, pressed her under him, and snatched the fan.

That's right, it's his fan!

"No rules!!, how can you take this king's things?!!" he roared.

"A fan, why are you so stingy!" Ye Yao gasped, trying to reverse her decline.

Secretly struggled a few times, but to no avail. I didn't think that Meng Xu'an was as heavy as Xiaoshan before.

glanced at the beads on her wrist, her chest was churning with blood and qi, she blamed this broken thing, she couldn't even beat a mortal!

If she couldn't beat it, she had to find a helper, so she hooked her fingers at the sword spirit hanging aside, but the lightsaber suddenly rushed out of the inner room and continued to shine in the outer hall.

"I am your master, why did you let the princess die without my permission?!" Meng Xu'an's voice was low, and her stern appearance made her a little strange.

He was talking about agreeing to be a bride to Hebo, and he was blaming her for making the decision on her own...... The way he was angry was terrifying.

"If they don't say yes, they won't give up. You can't do what you want to do. Ye Yao replied while pushing him hard.

Damn, no spiritual power, too miserable! The spells learned are of little use to mortals...... I already knew that I would ask Brother Qi for magic weapons, although the sword spirit was powerful, but he would not help her deal with her master.

"They're just subordinates!"

Meng Xu'an stared at her, his eyes bloodshot, "You give up the position of princess." My Princess...... What if she comes back?"

"The ......"

Before the words of explanation could be spoken, Ye Yao was strangled by the neck.

Meng Xu'an restrained her with one hand, and reached into her long hair with the other, groping carefully on top of her head.

The Great Elder of the Demon Clan said that the golden needle that controls the puppet is on the top of his head, and if the spell fails, he can pull it out and poke it again to restart "Ye Yao".

"Hmm...... You ......"

Ye Yao suddenly lost her breath.

What is this guy Meng Xu'an looking for? If he doesn't stop, he will be the first demon in the world to be strangled to death by a mortal.

Before she was unconscious, the power to survive suddenly burst out, she struggled to pull out her hands, grabbed Meng Xu'an's neck violently, pressed his head hard, and met his warm lips.

Meng Xu'an's body stiffened, and when his strength slowed down, Ye Yao sucked the breath from his mouth and took advantage of the situation to turn over and counter him.

"Owe me a breath, and finally got it back!" she panted.

"Night...... Yao ......" Meng Xu'an suddenly lost his breath.

His princess is really back!
