Chapter 125: Would You Rather?
Wu Qi can now be called a spring breeze. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the early time, he had an epiphany, and at the age of twenty-seven, he explored the Dao realm, at such an age, such a cultivation, compared to Mo Tingyu back then, it was only stronger than it was not weak.
Even in Shu Mountain, there is no shortage of voices praising it, if Mo Tingyu is alive, I am afraid that the title of the first day of the world will only change hands.
Of course, such words can only be just talk, Mo Tingyu is dead.
The living will never be better than the dead.
This truth was taught to Wu Qi by Wu Qi's teacher. He kept it in his heart.
As for the name of the first day in the world, Wu Qi didn't care.
However, as he came to ask, his head uncle, Huang Xingyun, the sword master who had been in charge of Shushan for nearly thirty years, also happily unloaded the burden of the head of Shushan, handed it over to Wu Qi's hands, and got into the sword mound himself, closed the dead pass, and declared to the outside world that he would not be able to go out of the pass.
As the youngest head coach in Shushan for thousands of years, Wu Qi naturally has his proud capital.
But this is still not the reason why he feels proud.
He has followed Yan Guiqiu since he was a child, and the talent he has shown in kendo is enough to eclipse countless self-proclaimed geniuses in front of him.
And the reputation of Xiao Thirteen is also resounding in Dawei.
When he was more than ten years old, he saw his master's appearance of starfall, and he secretly made up his mind to achieve starcast. The head of Shushan is more like a burden to him, and there are more trivial things to delay his cultivation.
What made him truly happy was the girl sitting next to him at the moment.
Her name is Fan Ruyue, no, it should be Lu Ruyue.
She is Emperor Xiaoming, the grandson of the Seven Killing Star Monarchs of Cangyumen, and the only empress in this case since the ages.
He liked her, from the first time he saw her, he liked her.
And now, he wants to marry her, and for Wu Qi, this should be the thing that makes him happiest when he lives so much.
Of course, he was not the only one who was so happy, the audience was full of guests, and his faces were also full of smiles.
The wedding between the Shushan Sect and the King of Shu was not a simple wedding. It also represents that from this moment on, Shu and Shu Mountain will completely become grasshoppers tied to a line, and the two forces will be twisted together, and the prosperity of the Han Dynasty a hundred years ago may reappear in their hands.
This is the dream of the Shu people, and it is the long-cherished wish of those old names of the previous dynasties.
But compared to them, as the protagonist of this wedding, the girl was not happy.
She was dressed in red, but on her head was not a phoenix crown, but a dragon crown.
Unlike ordinary weddings, an hour ago, she had inherited the throne, so naturally she couldn't wear a red hijab like ordinary women, worship heaven and earth with her husband three times, and then send them to the cave room.
He and she sat on the stage and received their congratulations.
But her face didn't have the spring breeze of the man next to her.
A few months ago, she was only the daughter of a defeated general of the previous dynasty, and because of Su Chang'an's righteous action, she was fortunate to hide in Tianlan Courtyard.
Now, she has changed her body and sat on the throne of the emperor of Shudi, and under the urging of a group of people she knows or doesn't know, she marries the man in front of her.
She didn't like that.
Whether it's the throne or a wedding.
She didn't like it.
If she had a choice, she would prefer to continue to be a little maid by Su Changan's side in Tianlan Courtyard. Although the days are not as beautiful as the current scenery, they make her feel more at ease.
It's just that those family and country are righteous, but like a heavy burden, she suddenly smashed into a daze, she couldn't resist at all, and could only choose to submit in confusion.
She sighed faintly in her heart, raised her head and looked around, but saw that this high-ranking friend was full, all of them were smiling, perhaps, this is right. She comforted herself in the bottom of her heart, but her head was lowered again.
In my mind, I couldn't help but recall the appearance of that young man.
He had also stood in front of her like a mountain, keeping the wind and rain out, leaving her with a smile that is still fresh in her memory.
"The auspicious time has come!" At this moment, a shrill voice sounded.
A man seated in the first seat of the guest stood up.
He was dressed in white, with a lupine scarf, long beard and hairdressing, and sword eyebrows and starry eyes. Although he is old, his flaws are not concealed, and the elegant demeanor revealed by his body is still enough to make people's hearts break.
His name is Zuo Yucheng, the prime minister of Shu a hundred years ago, and the prime minister of the Han Dynasty at this moment.
He was of very high status and seniority, and when he stood up, everyone present fell silent, and their eyes fell on him.
"Lord, Master Wu, the auspicious time has come, please salute. He said with a smile on his face, and then stretched out his hand to signal the two of them to step forward.
Wu Qi suddenly stood up impatiently when he heard this, and Lu Ruyue also got up after being slightly stunned. The two walked to the front of the high platform and stood opposite each other, Wu Qi was smiling, and Lu Ruyue bowed her head and was silent.
"Worship heaven and earth!" Zuo Yucheng said loudly.
The congratulatory voices of the guests also rang out at this time.
Wu Qi's face flushed with excitement, but Lu Ruyue's body stiffened at that time, and after worshipping heaven and earth, she confirmed the identity of husband and wife. As soon as she thought of this, the gloom in her heart became inexplicably intense.
But the guests had already begun to congratulate, and she could only stiffly turn around with Wu Qi, facing the outside of the house, and was about to bow down.
But at that moment a voice rang out.
It wasn't loud, it was just a reading to the guests.
Amid the cheers of the many guests, the sound was not unusual.
"Tianlan Courtyard Su Chang'an, Hua Fei yesterday, Luo Yu'er has arrived!"
But when she heard this name, Lu Ruyue's body that was about to bow down stopped, she raised her head like an electric shock, and looked in the direction of the entrance of the main hall. There was an incredible and uncertain look in his eyes.
The people who had originally focused all their eyes on the newcomers Lu Ruyue and Wu Qi, Lu Ruyue couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when Lu Ruyue changed so suddenly, and subconsciously followed Lu Ruyue's gaze towards the direction of the palace gate.
But at this moment, the three figures slowly walked into the main hall with the sound of the announcement.
The leader is a young man with an ordinary appearance, but the big sword behind him is particularly eye-catching.
And the two people beside him, one was wrapped in a red robe and couldn't see his face, and the other woman was straddling the divine sword at her waist, although she had cold eyebrows, she was incredibly beautiful. Compared with the young man at the head, although these two are not very old, their breath is condensed, and everyone who has some vision in the field can more or less see their extraordinary.
"Tianlan Academy, Su Chang'an, Hua Fei, Luo Yu'er?" The careful person was stunned for a moment at that time, remembered the voice of the report just now, and looked up and down the outfits of the three people, which were very similar to the rumors.
"The people of Tianlanyuan!" Almost immediately, an exclamation rang out.
The owner of the voice was obviously also extremely surprised, so his voice was also a little higher, and in the large and silent hall, it clearly reached the ears of everyone present.
In the hall, which had just quieted down, the whispers of everyone sounded again.
Tianlan.
Whether it is in Shu or the Central Plains.
Whether it is a dignitary or a pawn of a peddler.
It's a name with enough weight.
People revere it as if they were a god.
But Yuheng died. The old man, who almost represented the entire Tianlan, died.
Xu Rang took over Tianlan, Su Changan and others were wanted by the imperial court in the name of traitors, and while many people sighed, they could not admit that Tianlan was no longer the grand occasion of the past.
And now, these three disciples of Tianlan Academy suddenly appeared again and appeared at the ceremony of the succession and marriage of the King of Shu Han.
Naturally, everyone couldn't grasp their intentions, so they looked at the three of them quite hesitantly.
Su Changan was also a little mentally prepared for the reaction of the people around him, he didn't look at everyone's reaction, and walked straight forward.
This behavior was naturally very abrupt, so some of the guests subconsciously stood up. Among them are the soldiers of Shu Han, and there are also disciples in Shu Mountain.
Su Changan still turned a blind eye to this, and kept moving forward.
These people finally couldn't hold it anymore and were about to take action.
But Zuo Yucheng shook his head at them, and those Shu Han soldiers naturally didn't dare to disobey him, and sat down one after another.
And opposite him, an old man who was also the first seat also stood up, he also shook his head at his disciple, it seemed that the status of this old man was also very high in Shu Mountain, his meaning had been conveyed, and the disciples who got up also sat down one after another.
Su Changan was also at this time, and finally walked to the stage.
He stood there and was silent for a few moments before he looked up at the girl on the stage.
And the girl's gaze, from the moment Su Changan appeared, has been glued to Su Changan's body, and she can no longer move away.
When Su Changan looked at her, she naturally looked at him as well.
Their eyes met.
There seemed to be autumn water flowing in the girl's eyes, and all kinds of complex emotions of happiness, joy, and reluctance were transmitted to the young man's heart very clearly in this one look.
Although Wu Qi has been devoted to the way of the sword since he was a child, he does not know much about the affairs of men and women, but from the moment Su Changan appeared, Lu Ruyue's strange appearance still made Wu Qi instinctively feel uneasy.
He subconsciously took a step forward and stood between Lu Ruyue and Su Changan.
"Young Master Su is from Tianlan Academy. Wu Qi asked, his voice was calm, but his face was extremely unkind.
"Yes. Su Changan's brows furrowed, but he still answered truthfully.
"I Shushan and your Tianlan Courtyard do not have much intersection, but today is the day of my wedding with Ruyue, since I came, Wu is grateful, please sit down, if there are other things, wait for Wu to get married and then discuss. Wu Qi arched his hand and said, the attitude and demeanor are impossible to find fault with people.
"There are some things that should be mentioned tomorrow, but there are some things that are too late today. Su Changan shook his head.
Wu Qi's eyebrows furrowed, and some uneasiness swelled up inexplicably in his heart, but he still asked calmly on his face, "What's the matter?"
At that moment, Su Changan's gaze crossed Wu Qi and fell on Fan Ruyue's body.
He smiled at her, just like he had in the Peony Pavilion that year.
Clean and clear. But it's powerful.
"Would you like to?" he asked.
