The sound of turning went away, and Guan Fangyi, who was sitting alone in the darkness, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at herself in the mirror, but she couldn't see clearly, it was all blurry.
She was really afraid that Niu Youdao would break in and see her in her current state.
My eyes gradually became inexplicably moist. I leaned over the dressing table and lay on my arms, tears falling silently...
Outside, Niu Youdao, who was leaving with his sword, made a move.
Uncle Chen came out of the darkness and followed him away.
When the two of them walked through the courtyard, Yuan Gang stood in the shadow under the eaves and watched them off. He knew everything.
Niu Youdao came back before, took out the sword from the sword stand, and stared at the cold light on the sword illuminated by the light for a long time.
Yuan Gang noticed something unusual and asked what was going on, so Niu Youdao told him.
After leaving the yard, Niu Youdao stood on the edge of the mountain with a pestle and a sword, and the mountain breeze blew gently.
Uncle Chen who followed him asked: "Is something wrong?"
Niu Youdao: "When you followed the matchmaker, Xu Laoliu was not with the matchmaker, right?"
"Yes! Xu Laoliu came later." Uncle Chen replied. I wonder why he asked this. Did he want to ask about his background?
"That is to say, among the people in front of you, you know more about the matchmaker's past."
"Not necessarily, what do you want to say?"
Niu Youdao: "Today, the matchmaker was traveling with me and was beaten."
Chen Bomeng turned back to look at the courtyard and finally understood why Guan Fangyi was acting strange today. He turned back and asked in a deep voice: "Who did it?"
Niu Youdao slowly spit out a name, "Wen Xinzhao!"
Uncle Chen was stunned, and the serious look on his face gradually faded away, and asked: "Du Yunsang's wife?"
"It's her. I met the couple when I went to visit the Tiannu Sect today..." Niu Youdao gave a brief summary of what he knew.
After hearing this, Uncle Chen sighed softly, "Knowing that she bumped into someone accidentally, she still took action. This woman has gone too far."
"It seems that you know the whole story. Let's talk about it. If you want to settle accounts, you must at least clarify the situation, right? If you can't figure out the details, where should you start?"
"I'm afraid it's not necessary, and the matchmaker may not be willing to settle the score. Wen Xinzhao warned the matchmaker back then not to meet Du Yunsang again, and the matchmaker agreed."
Niu Youdao turned around in surprise: "Could it be that she really seduced a married man? Is the matchmaker at fault? I'm sorry first?"
"No way, the matchmaker is not that kind of person. She may be a little more wild now. It was not like this before. In the past, she only came to pester because of fame. She would not take the initiative to pester others. Du Yunsang, by rough calculation, is already twenty
It happened many years ago. Du Yunsang was still unmarried at that time, so there was no such thing as seducing a married man. At that time, Du Yunsang also came here with his friends because of his reputation. I have to admit that Du Yunsang's appearance
He is dignified, has an extraordinary temperament, is good at both civil and military arts, and can play music, chess, calligraphy and painting at his fingertips. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the leader of the Tianxing Palace generation."
"The bad thing is that Du Yunsang is so good. The matchmaker, who has a high vision, was attracted to him after seeing him for the first time. But Du Yunsang didn't talk much. He only came with friends several times. Later, the matchmaker took the initiative
He gave me a hint, saying that a lantern could never be lit at night. But Du Yunsang actually understood it and actually brought a lantern at night. He held the lantern with both hands. It could be said that the two fell in love at first sight, and they quietly
Together."
"The reason for keeping quiet is that the matchmaker has suffered similar losses and feels that it is not right for her to be in the wrong family. In addition, she has a bad reputation and is afraid that if it is made public, there will be resistance to the relationship. And Du Yunsang is really willing to go all out, and he even wants to
Qiancheng made public about the two of them being together. However, he was stopped by the matchmaker, fearing that he would not be able to communicate with the teacher. So Du Yunsang immediately returned to the teacher's door, preparing to ask the teacher's permission to marry the matchmaker to the matchmaker. He said, if
If the master does not agree, he would rather be expelled from the master!"
"The matchmaker was very excited, ready to get married, and she also began to make preparations to send us away. Unexpectedly, instead of waiting for Du Yunsang, she waited for Du Yunsang's junior sister Wen Xinzhao, who is also the daughter of Wenhua, the previous head of Tianxing Palace.
Du Yunsang's junior sister made an appointment with the matchmaker out of the city, but the matchmaker secretly went to the appointment without telling us. As a result, she almost died at the hands of Wen Xinzhao. Fortunately, someone who admired the matchmaker passed by and rescued the matchmaker.
The matchmaker was dying at the time and was severely beaten and sent back."
"When the matchmaker recovered from her injury, Du Yunsang also came. This time, Du Yunsang changed. He said that he was a passerby from now on, that he was just playing for fun, and that he had never seen him before. He asked the matchmaker not to pester him again.
One can imagine the situation of the matchmaker at that time. Not long after, news of the wedding of Du Yunsang and Wen Xinzhao came from the Tianxing Sect. Not long after, Wen Xinzhao came again and came to Fufang Garden in person.
She warned the matchmaker that Du Yunsang was already her husband and that the matchmaker was not allowed to see Du Yunsang again, otherwise she would not be spared. The matchmaker also made angry remarks at the time, saying that even if she begged to see him, she would not see him even if he asked her to see him.
If we meet again, let me do whatever you want!"
"Afterwards, the matchmaker was so angry that she set up a stage and threw the hydrangea. The hydrangea was thrown out, and someone caught it. However, the matchmaker is a woman who can afford to take it up and let it go. After calming down, she did not continue to wrong herself and did not marry the matchmaker.
The person who got the hydrangea was given a sum of money to settle the matter."
"A few years later, news came from the Tianxing Sect that the leader Wenhua voluntarily abdicated and passed the position of leader to Du Yunsang. Before, we suspected that Du Yunsang was under some pressure, until
At that moment we realized that the position of head of the Tianxing Sect cannot be compared to that of a mere matchmaker. How many people in the world can resist such a temptation?"
Niu Youdao chuckled, with a hint of sarcasm on his lips: "I understand, marrying the head's daughter in exchange for the head's position is not a bad deal."
Chen Bo sighed: "This is probably the situation. The matchmaker will never see Du Yunsang again. I didn't expect that we would bump into each other this time. With the matchmaker's temper, if we had made the bet back then, she would have definitely endured these two slaps.
I will only blame myself for not living up to expectations, and even if I break a tooth, I will swallow it in my stomach, so I won’t settle the score.”
Niu Youdao asked back: "If she is so angry, people will think she has backbone? Will her reputation be improved?"
Uncle Chen: "Then what else do you want? Let's not mention that we can't afford to offend Tianxing Sect. If we bump into it, it will be a dead end. You have also seen that the matchmaker would rather swallow it by herself than let outsiders know. She would rather bear the mess.
She doesn't want to keep her reputation in front of Wen Xinzhao. It's not that we think it's useful whether she wants that backbone, but that she wants that backbone herself."
He sighed and added, "Master Dao, it seems you don't understand the matchmaker very well. It's not because of Du Yunsang and Wen Xinzhao, but there are some things that the matchmaker doesn't care about, and there are some things that she cares about."
Niu Youdao understood and said slowly: "Uncle Chen, don't let her know that we already know about the beating."
Uncle Chen sighed: "I understand, you don't need to say it."
"You go back first, I will take care of this matter."
"Don't mess around, Tianxing Sect is not something we can provoke at all."
"I know better than you what to do. I'm just a little surprised. With Wen Xinzhao's style, how could he tolerate the matchmaker living till now?"
…
The moonlight was like water, and among the balconies, Du Yunsang stood upright and proudly on the railing, his eyes slightly distracted.
The past events were vivid in his mind, and he still clearly remembered the situation when he left Fufangyuan and returned to his sect. He was also nervous and scared, knowing the pressure he was about to face if a prestigious sect like Tianxing Sect married a woman with the reputation of a matchmaker.
What's more, he is the most valued direct disciple of the master.
But he never looked back.
He clearly remembered his master's reaction when he told him about his marriage in front of him. He was so angry that he shouted the word "unbridled" like a thunderbolt. Without saying a word, he slapped himself on the spot until he vomited blood.
The master walked up to him and asked condescendingly, are you awake?
I begged myself hard.
The master was very disappointed, shook his head and asked him, do you know the high hopes I have for you? I regard you as my own son. How much effort have I put into your training over the years? Do you have to force me to tell you clearly about the position of the master?
Is the title going to be passed on to you? How can the dignified head of the Tianxing Sect marry a bitch who can do everything in his power? Where do you want the Tianxing Sect to put its face? Such a huge joke, how can you ask me to show my face to the sky?
Everyone from top to bottom of Xingzong will give an explanation? If this kind of thing really happens, not only will I lose my face, but everyone in Tianxing Sect will not be able to let someone like you rise to power. From now on, this matter must not be mentioned even a word.
, let me rot in my stomach!
He refused, so he got up and knelt down to beg, saying that he would rather not be the head of the clan than to be expelled from the sect.
After kowtowing, he got up and left, hoping to leave the Tianxing Sect.
The master's sneer came from behind, you evil beast! You are so stubborn! How can Tianxing Sect allow you to come and leave whenever you want?
As a result, he was unable to leave Tianxing Sect and was placed under house arrest in a dark dungeon.
One day, the moon butterfly's light illuminated the dark dungeon, and also illuminated the master's face standing outside the fence.
He still begged, but the master only said coldly, do you want that bitch to die or do you want that bitch to live?
Just this sentence seemed to drain all the strength from his body!
Later, he returned to Fufangyuan, and he would never forget the smiling and crying face when he turned to leave.
At the corner of the pavilion, Wen Xinzhao stood there quietly, looking at his figure quietly.
She also clearly remembered how her father was furious because of that woman. This senior brother had never let her father down. He was so outstanding that her father was proud of him and regarded him as his own son. He had already regarded him as his own.
son in law.
That time, my father was so disappointed with his senior brother!
She had known for a long time that she would marry this senior brother sooner or later. She liked such an outstanding senior brother very much, but the appearance of that woman changed everything, making the senior brother like a man possessed.
She couldn't understand how a bitch who could do anything for anyone could make her senior brother so fascinated.
She ran to see it, wanting to see what was so good about it that it could confuse her senior brother like this.
After seeing her, she became jealous. How could there be such a beautiful woman in the world, whose beauty was inferior to hers? So she became angry and almost killed the bitch.
Later, the senior brother faced the reality, followed his father's arrangement, and married her. However, he had an agreement with his father not to touch that woman. He also promised to break it off and never have anything to do with her in the future!
It was this agreement that was a huge humiliation to her, and it always stuck in her throat!
