The eunuch rushed into the imperial study in small steps, bowed his body and reported to the person sitting on the dragon table, "To inform the emperor, King Yan has entered the palace according to the order and is waiting outside the imperial study."
Wan Qiqing, who was wearing a dragon robe, looked very heroic, but his face was covered with a haze, and his jawline was tense. His eagle eyes were narrowed tightly, and an extremely cold aura slowly spread.
"Xuan."
A moment later, Wan Qiyan walked in with his head held high. He didn't care about the courtesy of the monarch and his ministers. He just casually wore a light green brocade robe and came to see the driver. He walked up to Wan Qiqing, who had a gloomy face, cupped his fists and saluted, "
emperor."
"Humph," Wan Qiqing snorted coldly, threw the book in his hand on the case, glanced at him, stood up with his sleeves fluffed, and said in a slightly sad tone, "Let's call him Fourth Brother."
"Haha," Wan Qiyan smiled and called out openly, "Fourth brother." He was probably the only one in the court who could receive such treatment.
"You only left a letter and then disappeared, leaving hundreds of thousands of troops behind. Lao Wu, do you deliberately want to embarrass your fourth brother?" Wan Qiqing's voice was slightly cold, and his eyes were cold. He looked at Wu in front of him.
Brother, he is really angry and hateful.
"Fourth brother, you also know that I am used to being undisciplined. It has nothing to do with me who comes to sit in this world. I don't mean to target fourth brother at all, let alone have such thoughts?" Wan Qiyan was not afraid and walked up to
He sat down on the chair next to him and poured himself another cup of tea. He felt very comfortable. Since Wan Qiqing asked him to call him Fourth Brother, he did not regard himself as an emperor, so why should he be restrained?
Wan Qiqing came to stand in front of him and glanced at him, "Where have you been these days?"
"Don't Fourth Brother already know this? Why bother testing him again?" Wan Qiyan looked directly at him with a frank look.
He stopped talking, just looked at him meaningfully, and finally sat next to him, "Are you staying there as the Flame King?"
"Wanqiyan." Not the King of Flames, not the God of War of Qisa, but Wanqiyan.
In one sentence, he made his position clear. He knew that his affairs in Yanbei Kingdom could not be hidden from his fourth brother, so he simply admitted it openly. He did not like to play any role in political struggles, and he would not hide things.
This is also his wise way of protecting himself.
Wan Qiqing's words are undoubtedly his. He knows this fifth brother too well. He can guard against anyone, but he will not be wary of him. If he wants to consolidate his throne, Wan Qiyan must not
Or lack thereof. When he learned that he was in Yanbei Kingdom, the first thing he thought of was Jun'er.
Thinking of her, his heart trembled. After a long silence, Fang asked, "How is she?"
He raised his eyes to look at Fourth Brother and smiled slightly, "I thought Fourth Brother could bear it until the end before asking. It seems that I underestimated her position in your heart." Seeing Wan Qiqing glare at him, he stopped joking.
, bluntly said, "She is very adaptable to the grassland. She likes everything there very much. Including... the people there." The hidden meaning is full of sadness. But as long as she can be happy, he can let go.
"Really?" Wan Qiqing lowered his eyelids, tapping the armrests of the chair rhythmically with his fingers, his tone calm. But his brows were condensed into frost, and his cheeks were as tense as statues.
"She is getting married to her seventh brother." This was the news he learned on the day he left.
The fingers stopped suddenly.
A storm surged up in his heart, roaring, clamoring, and tumbling, one layer after another. He was jealous, he was going crazy with jealousy.
It's like the most precious and cherished thing deep in his heart has been torn away by someone, leaving a bloody wound. If the gap is not filled, his heart will die sooner or later, and his life will dry up along with it.
.
He shouldn't have let her leave, no!
His pupils opened, and the bottom of his eyes was like thousand-year-old ice. The chill was frightening, "I want to capture Yanbei." His eyes were wild, and the domineering expression in his brows was clearly revealed.
Wan Qiyan didn't have many surprises. According to his fourth brother's character, as long as he wants to get it, he will go all out. Unfortunately, he has already made a promise to her. As long as she is in Yanbei, he will not attack Yanbei.
.
"Fourth brother, I'm sorry. I don't know how to lead troops."
"What did you say?" Wan Qiqing turned his head and stared at him closely, "Give me a reason."
Wan Qiyan showed his face, "Fourth brother just thinks that I can follow my own nature and don't want to be restrained anymore." He knows what to say and what not to say. The reason why fourth brother sent his army north is for her, and he doesn't want to take command for it.
It's also her. The fourth brother can tolerate him abandoning the army, but he will not allow him to make a commitment to the woman he loves.
There was a vague anger all over his body, and he slapped the table, his dark and cold eyes emitting an unfathomable anger, "Fifth brother, everything should be done in moderation. I am the emperor after all, and I will not let you go on with your nonsense."
He put down the tea cup, patted his clothes, stood up and bowed to Wan Qiqing, "I respectfully obey the emperor's teachings." He would not forget that the person in front of him was the emperor after all, the most powerful person among ten thousand people who could control the power of life and death.
Wan Qiqing waved his hand, turned around and said, "Step back."
"I excuse myself." Wan Qiyan walked out of the imperial study without haste. All he could do was to let her get married in sequence. No matter how angry Wan Qiqing was, he would never choose to send troops during the Spring Festival, let alone during the Spring Festival.
Without his own troops, he went to war rashly.
After he withdrew, Wan Qiqing sat back angrily by the dragon table. Whenever he thought of her about to marry someone else, his heart felt like being pricked by needles, and the pain made him suffocate. She was going to get married, she was going to get married.
The other man had this thought in his mind, torturing him to the point of going crazy. He wished he could lead his troops to kill her now, snatch her back at all costs, keep her by his side, and never give her up to anyone easily again.
Since he came to the throne, he has never been close to a woman, and he only thinks about her day and night.
The only strange thing is that his love came too late.
If it had been when she first entered Prince Qing's Mansion, if it had been when she had just become his princess, if it had been when she was still with him...
Sometimes, happiness will pass you by with just one step.
Unexpectedly, his seventh brother would return to Zhuolang Castle safe and sound. Was he destined to be lucky, or did he underestimate him?
After discovering that he was the king of Yanbei Kingdom, the unwillingness in their hearts became stronger and stronger. The brothers only focused on fighting for the throne in front of them, fighting to the death. Only he, silently and secretly, turned his eyes outside.
While being poisoned, he spent five years building an empire of his own. He had to admit that he had to admire his foresight.
He even expected that he would become the final candidate for the throne and kept his subordinates by his side for two years.
Wanqiu will be a rival.
He slowly closed his eyes and opened them after a long time. All the emotions in his eyes were deliberately hidden by him. As a man, he can be impulsive, jealous, and resentful. As an emperor, these are shortcomings.
After calming down all the troubles, he summoned his personal eunuch, "Call the man from 'Light' to come see me."
‘Light’ is a mysterious organization that has emerged in the world in recent years. It is especially good at intelligence and tracking.
Wan Qiqing knew very well that no wall in the palace was airtight, so he set his sights on Jianghu gangs and used their power to work for him.
The intelligence network of "Light" is spread all over the world, ranging from the secrets of the imperial court to the secrets of the world. No information can escape their eyes and ears. The mysterious sect leader who established "Light" has always been a mystery.
"According to the order." The little eunuch responded smartly.
Half an hour later, three more people appeared in the royal study. They were dressed in black, black pants, and black boots. They neither announced nor bowed down. They just cupped their hands and called out, "Your Majesty."
"Well," Wan Qiqing nodded, exuding a cold aura. He stared at the three of them and asked, "What's going on over there with King Zhao?"
"Not yet." The person standing on the left replied simply, "King Zhao has been living in seclusion, and no one else has come to visit him."
There was a sneer on Wan Qiqing's lips, but he didn't care, "He is too calm."
Sooner or later, he will get rid of Wan Qizhao. However, the most important thing for him at the moment is to attack the Yanbei Kingdom. First, let him exercise more in secret.
"What about the other side?"
"Everything is just as the emperor expected." The man in the middle replied.
His smile became even colder. Sure enough, he would not keep to himself. Unfortunately, he was too eager.
"Any more?"
"King Fan is actively wooing the ministers," a third person reported.
"Hmph, he is the stupidest one." Wan Qiqing didn't care about him. "Let him cultivate his moral character in Prince Fan's Mansion."
"yes,"
Wan Qiqing pondered for a moment and then ordered, "Keep Zhuolang Fort under surveillance, and report any disturbance to me immediately." He paused slightly, "There is also Flame King, it's time for him to take a good rest in the mansion.
"
"Yes," the three of them responded.
Concubine Mei was sitting in her palace, holding a book of poems in her hand, looking entranced. Dong'er walked forward with gentle steps and whispered, "Concubine Mei, this is the letter from King Jing in reply to you."
"Yeah," he put down the book, reached out to take it, and showed the letter.
After reading it, he frowned and pondered for a moment, then stood up and said, "Get the incense and candles ready, we are going to worship Lord Buddha."
On the ninth day of February, there are still three days before spring begins. According to Qisa custom, on this day people go to the temple to burn incense and pray for a good harvest after spring planting.
Mei Fei would go to the temple to offer incense on this day every year. Without disturbing other people, after requesting the order from Wan Qiqing, she took Dong'er and two guards in casual clothes and went straight to Huguo Temple.
When entering the temple, the place was already filled with cigarette smoke and crowded. Dong'er found a seat for Concubine Mei, then placed the tributes he brought on the tribute table and handed the incense to Concubine Mei.
Mei Fei knelt on the futon, took the incense, and whispered piously.
At this moment, an old monk from Huguo Temple came over, stopped beside Mei Fei, clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha,"
Seeing this, Concubine Mei immediately stood up and saluted, "Master."
The old monk looked at her carefully, his kind eyes slightly bent, and his deep voice said, "Forgive me for being blunt, this female donor is born with the appearance of a mother who cares about the world!"
These words were like thunder on the ground, shaking the temple of Nuo Da.
It is the morning when people come to the temple to burn incense. As a royal temple, Huguo Temple is only open to the public on this day. As you can imagine, the flow of people has never stopped. It is widely said that the incense here is efficacious, and there are many people who specialize in it.
He came from far away just to burn a stick of incense here.
The so-called appearance of a mother in the world is the appearance of a queen. When they heard that someone had this appearance, everyone looked here curiously. Concubine Mei was always calm and elegant, with a noble temperament. When she heard the old monk's words, she didn't see anything strange.
. Just smiled calmly and said, "Everyone has his own destiny. Wealth and honor are in heaven. Since it is destiny, we will take care of it."
"Concubine Mei, Concubine Mei!" The guards outside the palace suddenly rushed in at this moment and shouted to Concubine Mei, "Concubine Mei, the sedan chair is ready."
"She, she is Concubine Mei?" The people were surprised.
Concubine Mei glared at the guard who revealed her identity, and without stopping, she only bowed to the old monk and hurriedly left the hall.
The people talked a lot, "No wonder the eminent monk said she has the appearance of a mother. It turns out she is really a royal concubine."
"Yes, I heard that she is the only concubine of the emperor, and he loves her very much."
"It seems that she is almost certain to become the queen."
"Oh, we can also meet the future queen. We are truly lucky."
In less than half a day, the people in Jiangcheng knew that Concubine Mei was the future queen with the appearance of a mother.
Concubine Mei returned to the palace in a sedan chair with a faint smile on her lips...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
There is a dream behind the curtain of the moon at night, and the tenderness of the spring breeze is ten miles away.
In three days, it will be the beginning of spring, and everyone in the Yanbei Kingdom is preparing for this most important festival of the year. The beginning of spring is a day worth celebrating for the herdsmen. Especially the master and mistress will be growing up on this day.
The wedding was even more joyful. For a time, people were delivering cattle, sheep, and vegetables to the fort, and people volunteered to help. The herdsmen were expressing their joy and joy in their most simple way.
bless.
For Wan Qihan, everything can be put on hold, except for the matter of getting married. Even if the sky is about to fall, it will have to wait until he gets married.
At this time, all the constellations were really busy, and all fifteen saints in white were dispatched. First, Zhuolang Castle was thoroughly cleaned, and then they began to decorate and renovate it. This was the constellation host's son's wedding, and nothing should be done carelessly.
Wan Qixun also ordered that two large temporary yurts be built outside Zhuolangbao, each covering an area of about an acre, and it would not be a problem to accommodate 1,800 people at the same time. He wanted to hold a three-day flowing water banquet inside, and all the people from Yanbei Kingdom
Herdsmen do not need to bring any gifts, as long as people come.
According to his past temperament, he would never participate in such lively things. But it is different now. He does not reject actions that can bring her joy at all. He knows how much Mai Mai longs for a family, and the simple and honest Mai Mai
However, she accepted the herdsmen from the bottom of her heart and regarded them as her family.
During this time, countless rare treasures and unparalleled objects have been continuously sent to Maimai's room, filling the whole room. There are night pearls, agate ear cups, jade carvings of the twelve zodiac signs, tourmaline bracelets, gold inlays, etc.
The plum blossom belts...are all rare things that Mai Mai has never seen before.
There are 108 chili red coral beads sent from a small coastal country. The chili red color can definitely be called the rarest and best among corals. There is also an emerald the size of a cat's eye inlaid in the middle of the beads, which is dazzling.
There are also some congratulatory gifts sent by big gangs in the Jianghu. Among them, one of the white jade hollow carvings is the most eye-catching. The carving is exquisite and the jade is of high quality. Even if Mai Mai has no ability to appreciate antiquities, he can still see its priceless value.
She didn't know what the relationship was between the people who sent these treasures and Wanqi Xun, but it was not difficult to see their good intentions. Leaving aside the small neighboring countries, the valuable gifts sent by these martial arts sects alone took up most of the room.
However, since he was able to establish the Yanbei Kingdom in just five years, it is not surprising that he was able to recruit these people.
She knows what she should know, and she is very clear in her heart. She will never interfere in things that should not be interfered with. Now, just like what Yu said, she is only responsible for happiness. Everything else is left to him.
Mai Mai's wedding dress was all re-ordered, from head to toe, no one was left behind. In the afternoon, the Tianjia Embroidery Shop in the former Tiandu Kingdom sent the number one girl from the Shenzhen Tower to come over.
Mai Mai made thirty-six sets of new clothes, including undergarments. Tianjia Embroidery Shop even put down all the business and used the best embroidery girls in the shop to rush to make them for Mai Mai.
New clothes. Promise to deliver them to the castle the day before the wedding.
As Miss Lou left, the shoemaker from Yanbei Kingdom followed suit. He took some shoe samples from Maimai and asked her about the styles she liked. He planned to make forty-eight pairs when he returned home and then let her choose from them.
Next, they are responsible for custom-made jewelry, handkerchiefs, and rouge and gouache. In short, as long as they are used by Mai Mai, they are all unique.
After a whole day, Mai Mai was tortured so much that the others were even more dazzled. At night, the castle was filled with joy. Ah Shang and Lou Su worked hard, rehearsing their dances, and they must be in front of the master.
Show your face on your wedding day.
Wan Qixun has been at the military camp during the day, discussing military affairs with Yi and the others. But Lou Su will send someone to report on the situation in the fort every hour. Therefore, he is also very aware of the situation here.
After he regained consciousness, he became much more active and no longer indifferent to everything as before. Judging from the importance he now attaches to the military camp, he has gone all out for the Qisa Dynasty.
When dinner was approaching, he rushed back with Yi Su and others. Dou Su had already been waiting in the front hall. When he saw him coming back, he immediately stepped forward and reported, "Master, we have found Master Mo."
"Where is he?" Wan Qixun asked in a clear voice.
"Master Mo and Princess Liu are at Master Zhihui's place in Xianggui Mountain."
"Will he... come to watch the ceremony?"
"Master Mo asked his subordinates to tell the master that he has tried his best to resolve the grievances of the previous generation and has no regrets. Therefore, he does not expect the master to do anything for him. The master only needs to live for himself."
This is a way for a father to make up for his paternal love. Even if Tiandu was defeated, he would never attach his hatred to his son.
He lowered his eyes and said, "Go down and rest."
Wan Qixun knew very well that he would not come because he did not want to cause a burden to himself.
Slowly walking out of the front hall, he went directly to Mai Mai's room. There was no lamp in the room, but it was as bright as day. Mai Mai was pouring piles of treasures into boxes on the ground, leaving only two luminous pearls to illuminate.
Then she closed the lid and kicked it aside with her feet, showing no care at all. When she saw the person who came in through the door, she suddenly smiled and said, "Hey, you're back."
A simple greeting, like a little daughter-in-law who has been waiting for her husband for a day, made Wan Qihan feel warm in his heart. He walked over and looked at the box on the ground, "Don't like it?" I'm afraid even the treasures in the palace are not worth it.
There is nothing rarer and more precious than them.
"I like it," Mai Mai replied happily. Who in the world doesn't like treasures.
Mai Mai joked, "But if you don't know what to do with them, you can't drool over them every day." She is still very pragmatic.
Wan Qixun pulled her and smiled nonchalantly. This was his Mai Mai, not pretentious or pretentious.
"It may be quite hard these days. People will come to Zhuolangbao one after another in the next two days to congratulate you." As the king of Yanbei Kingdom, his wedding has attracted much attention. And he is uncharacteristically planning this wedding.
It became known all over the world and caused a sensation in the world.
He knew the fourth brother's love for Mai Mai well. After defeating Tiandu and heading north without taking a breath, his thoughts became even more obvious. Because of this, his wedding was to swear to him and the world that Mai Mai only
She could be his Wanqixun wife.
"Don't worry, I'll greet you." Mai Mai responded with a smile. Suddenly, with an "ah" sound, she ran back to the dressing table as if remembering something, opened the drawer, and took out something. She ran back and raised it like a treasure.
Get up, "Hey, I gave this to you!"
In the white palm, there is a small razor as big as a finger, with a star wrapped in red thread hanging from the end.
"Although I didn't buy it with money, I like it very much. You see, I made this star with my own hands!" Mai Mai smiled a little embarrassedly, "My red needlework is terrible, and I can't embroider those beautiful things.
The things I have can only be wrapped with thread, and they are just like fish and pearls." It's a bit funny to say that at the beginning, I still wanted to give this to Wan Qixun in disguise, and I don't know if he will be jealous of me now.
He picked up the knife in her hand and looked at it carefully, "The blade is not good and the workmanship is poor."
Mai Mai raised her eyebrows and her face was filled with anger. He was really picky.
"People have taken the initiative to admit that their skills are poor, but you still rub salt in the wound." It's okay to just respond in vain.
As if he didn't hear Mai Mai complaining, he looked around and finally put it in his arms neatly. Looking at her, he smiled elegantly and said, "But, I like it very much." He already knew that she was holding it and thought she was holding it.
I won't give it to him. It will make him worry in vain.
Seeing him holding her close, Mai Mai finally showed a satisfied smile. When she saw the joking in his eyes, she snarled, poked his chest with her index finger, and glared at him, "You're a bad example."
He grabbed her naughty hand, put it to his lips and kissed her. Seeing her blush immediately, his brows were filled with a dazzling smile.
"Dong dong dong," a clear cough came from outside the door, followed by a voice that suppressed a smile, "Miss, master, it's time for dinner."
"Oh, I got it." Mai Mai quickly pulled out his hand and warned with a serious expression, "Don't bring me more vegetables, don't stare at me while I eat, and don't pile all the meat in front of me." Because they were all following me.
We all ate together and were laughed at every time.
He stroked her cheek and raised an elegant arc on one side of her lips, which immediately made Mai and Mai lose their souls. He smiled without saying a word, held her hand and walked out of the room.
