152.Death in front of everyone's eyes (middle)
"Princess, try this, chilled lotus seed soup." The ice of the deep mountain spring water hoarded last winter, and the fresh lotus seeds transported from Zhenze in Yangzhou this summer. This season is the most appropriate, which can replenish the middle and strengthen the will, nourish the mind and spleen. β
"Hmm...... The lotus seeds of Zhenze are the sweetest. β
"Another piece of mung bean cake. This mung bean is from Liangzhou, boiled with lotus leaf morning dew, shelled and then grinded, smooth as rice milk. The filling is made of rose preserves, which is sweet but not greasy. β
"Uh-huhββ, delicious. β
"Come on, come on, try this again, braised hooves. I specially invited Master from Jizhou to do it. β
In front of the huge sea bowl was a large pig's trotter with a bright color and attractive aroma, decorated with emerald green fragrant leaves, Ye Yao just wanted to do it, and suddenly realized that he was here to give a wedding!
Not far from the river bank, there is a red sedan chair open on all sides, and the "bride" in a red wedding dress is sitting in the center of the sedan chair facing the river. The surrounding people were full of voices, gongs and drums were sluggish, and the big witches in colorful brocade clothes danced an exaggerated dance with a group of wizards in fancy robes and feathers.
After a while, wait for the heavy sacrificial process to end. She was going to tie a gilt belt for the "bride", and Meng Xu'an was going to send a few catties of gold-inlaid jade Ruyi, and then she was going to invite the "bride" to the middle of the river on a pine and cypress boat.
Suddenly alert, she kicked the seat next to her hard, and roared in a low voice: "Meng Xu'an, what are you feeding the pigs?!"
Meng Xu'an didn't care, picked up his chopsticks, and neatly disassembled the fragrant pig's trotters into several large pieces.
"Eat. You see you're skinny. I don't know, I still think that Princess Bohai is a monkey!" he pushed the sea bowl to Ye Yao's hand, and continued to drink tea slowly.
The only monkey that Ye Yao has seen is Bi Meng's Xiaotao. It is said that it is like a monkey, but it is better to be compared to a fat, lazy and cute pig. Although he was sulking, he couldn't treat himself badly. She angrily grabbed the chopsticks and shoved a piece of fat and lean meat into her mouth.
Fat but not greasy, chewy, although the lo-mei is enough, it does not hide the aroma of the meat itself.
"Hmm...... It's so delicious! It is made of authentic Jizhou marinade, star anise and cumin in the mountains. At this moment, she had forgotten what she was angry about.
"If you like it, if you like. Meng Xu'an nodded with satisfaction, looking at her eyes gently and almost overflowing, "Eat, eat, although there are many onlookers, but in their hearts, the princess has long been a person who is untrustworthy and jealous, so it doesn't matter if you add such a thing as greed." Things must be reversed, maybe you think you just have no heart because of this. β
"Ahemβ"
Ye Yao had just taken a sip of lotus seed soup and almost choked.
"Why don't I believe what I say?!Obviously blame you! The Great Elder is not a puppet man, you have to let Jiaxi be Yuyi's bride instead. She was really angry, turned around and said seriously: "Also, I need to be jealous of a mortal? I need to be jealous of a mortal? I need to be jealous that she has been with you since I was a child, and I need to be jealous that she likes you to the point of desperation...... I'm jealous...... I ......"
"Don't mindβ" Meng Xu'an looked at her with a smile and patted her on the back with his free hand, "In the eyes of the people of Gunzhou, this king is a bad guy who is willful, reckless, and ignores their life and death. With the princess...... Just match. β
As soon as he said this, Ye Yao didn't want to continue to complain.
After trying to understand it for a few days, she still couldn't understand - Meng Xu'an would obviously levy forced labor for the sake of the people, so that the surrounding states and counties would do their best to strengthen the river embankment. In the mouths of the people, he has become a tyrannical prince who is overjoyed and profligate, angering the gods. Carrying the danger of being retaliated against by the earth immortals and the netherworld, is it worth it to do such a thing that benefits the country and the people, and to be cursed by the people who ultimately benefit?
Looking at her solemn expression, Meng Xu'an smiled.
"Do what you feel is right and don't overthink it. β
"Mortals, the realm is very high!" Ye Yao praised from the bottom of her heart.
There are many reasonable things in the world, I have listened to them, written them down, and done them, some mortals can, but some immortals cannot.
Meng Xu'an waved his hand, "No, no, no, just because he is a mortal, his life has passed in a hurry for decades." In a hundred years, it will be completely forgotten. To be a mortal, you don't have to think too much. β
"Meng Xu'an-" Ye Yao suddenly turned her head, looked at him seriously, and said word by word: "Not now." For thousands of years, 10,000 years, there will be me who will remember you. Remember what a brave mortal you are!"
......
In front of everyone's eyes, the tyrannical King of Bohai and his jealous princess are so tired that people can't stand it.
Su Bai was dressed in a dress, standing straight beside the sedan chair, looking at Ye Yao from a distance, and couldn't help sighing.
"Falling in love with a mortal is something that a woman in the Six Realms can do that is too stupid to be stupid. β
The day before yesterday, the puppet was well molded, and Miss Lu suddenly took out a bag of bright gold ingots, and asked him to make the puppet look like Ye Yao, send it to Meng Xu'an, and then let the real Ye Yao marry as a bride.
How vicious mortals!
Such a woman, if she is not sent to the underworld, will she keep it for her new aunt IKEA IKEA?
"Bang-"
A firework burst into the sky, resounding like thunder, and sprinkling a patch of crimson debris like a rain of flowers.
The sacrifice is over.
He walked to the side of the sedan chair, raised his long sleeves, and the moment the gold dust in his palm was scattered, he used a trick to make a trick, and dropped the puppet "Lu Jiaxi" and Miss Lu hidden in his sleeves.
In a short period of time, a group of priests sent by Heavenly Court to the Demon Realm have changed, their ranks are getting higher and higher, and the things they ask about are becoming more and more detailed, and they have the posture of turning the demon clan upside down. Ye Yao is bound to stay in the mortal world for a while, she carries the expectations of the demon clan for hundreds of years, and she must not let any danger lurk by her side.
"Bride, please get out of the sedan chair!" he said.
At this moment, under the red hijab, Lu Jiaxi was staring at him with frightened eyes, allowing himself to be controlled to stand up, take the rough hand of the puppet craftsman, and follow him to the bank of the river.
At the end of the line of sight are lush pine branches and rippling yellowing waters.
This bad guy can't be benevolent and righteous in business, and he wants to send her to death!
A ding-dong sound came, and a pair of small embroidered shoes appeared in her sight, and then Ye Yao's voice sounded, "This gilded belt...... It's so exquisite!"
"When it's time for the wedding, I'll order a more delicate one for you from Shengjing! Now, hurry, immediately tie it to her......! I'm about to lose my breath......" Meng Xu'an's deliberately lowered voice was also on the side.
Rajah...... Save me......
It's me...... Jiaxi ......
Lu Jiaxi tried hard to shout, but he didn't make a sound.
Her eyes were sour, but her tears couldn't fall, what kind of magic did the damned craftsman do?
