Since Qin Shihuang spoke first, I naturally won't act cool and pretend to be cold.
I smiled back and said, neither salty nor cool: "The Emperor Qin praised you, I was just fulfilling my responsibilities and abilities. In the battle of Qishan, the ones who really stole the show were the noble and upright people behind you, Emperor Qin. If
Without them, maybe Emperor Qin and I would still be drinking cold water in the mountain stream..."
As soon as I finished speaking, Qin Shihuang was fine, but the faces of those who were of the same sect around him became extremely ugly.
"What Master Zhou said is as if we didn't contribute in the battle at Qishan?" A guy came out with a shy face and protested.
I glanced at him, and I had some impression of this guy. He seemed to be the manager of a demon-slayer family. He had a majestic expression on his face, as if he was trying to overwhelm me with his aura.
It's a pity that I have even died before, so how can I be overwhelmed by his momentum!
I immediately stood up and took a step forward without being affected by the man's momentum at all: "I don't know whether you have contributed, but in everything you do, you must live up to your own conscience... My Maoshan disciples suffered nearly 30% casualties in Qishan.
We don’t say whether we are people who try our best, but at least we are worthy of our conscience and this responsibility!”
I spoke vigorously, neither humble nor arrogant, which immediately made the face of the family manager who wanted to deliberately oppress me with his elder's aura turn red!
The person in charge opened his mouth wide and wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say for the moment. He could only say a few random words in embarrassment, and then returned to the crowd in despair.
Seeing that no one came out to speak again, Qin Shihuang put away his smile and said: "Okay, I invite you all to watch the wedding today, not to let you quarrel and argue for Qishan's credit... Master Zhou, you are young and promising.
A boy is born with a hero, but sometimes, you are still too sharp..."
"Showing your edge?" I secretly smiled bitterly, thinking that Qin Shihuang, you don't need to be so obvious about protecting the calf, right? If I, Zhou Lingfeng, really show my sharpness, would I still be here just talking with words?
When Qin Shihuang spoke, the family manager surnamed Wang snorted and said nothing more, while I smiled and said nothing.
Qin Shihuang walked up with the group of terracotta warriors and horses, and for a while he looked majestic.
Qin Shihuang glanced at everyone present, and then said a few innocuous things, but I felt that his eyes were always looking at me vaguely.
Finally, as Qin Shihuang clapped his hands, I saw a woman's voice coming from the door.
"Concubine Mu is here!"
"The auspicious time is approaching. Congratulations to Your Majesty and Concubine Mu on their wedding!!"
In an instant, there was a loud noise outside the entire palace, one after another, and it seemed that the sound was echoing all over the place, which made people feel shocked!
Qin Shihuang had a smile on his face. I followed his gaze and saw a woman in a bright red dress slowly walking in at the entrance of the palace, supported by a group of women in palace attire.
This woman walked very slowly, but every time she took a step, the pupils of my eyes would unconsciously condense a little more.
I watched this red figure slowly move towards Qin Shihuang, and I couldn't help but say in my heart: "Mu Qing, I'm back..."
Mu Qing was finally helped by a group of women in palace attire to stand in front of Qin Shihuang. At this moment, I saw that the smile on Qin Shihuang's dark face seemed to melt.
"Concubine Mu." Qin Shihuang took Mu Qing's hand and said, "I said I would give you a grand wedding. Now, I have done it. Look, so many people have come to witness my wedding with you.
A wedding with such a grand occasion is no worse than that of any concubine..."
"We congratulate Emperor Qin and Concubine Mu on their great happiness. They will grow old together and fly together..."
The righteous fellows on the other side started to flatter him again, which made Qin Shihuang laugh heartily and say yes again and again.
I saw it in my eyes and slowly clenched my fists.
Fatty Xia on the side came over and said, "How about it, do you want to do it now?"
I remained calm and said, "Wait a little longer."
"When they go to worship, they will be someone else's wife who is serious..." Fatty Xia said anxiously.
I still stared expressionlessly, but I always had a feeling in my heart that Mu Qing would not marry Qin Shihuang for no reason. She had previously proposed to use military exploits as a bargaining chip to leave Qin Shihuang, so what happens now?
Would you like to marry Qin Shihuang?
I have doubts in my heart, but at this time, Qin Shihuang, who is above, is ready to start the real worship with Mu Qing.
Everyone on the field was looking at Qin Shihuang, but there were many eyes in the dark staring at me. Obviously, they were watching my reaction...
"The time for the sacrifice has arrived. Your Majesty and Concubine Mu, please prepare to pay your respects!" Wang Jian shouted at the top of his voice.
Qin Shihuang took the initiative to stand opposite Mu Qing. According to this ancient custom, their ceremony was similar to that of our current civil affairs bureau. Once they worshiped, they were a legitimate couple.
"As soon as you bow to the sky and the earth, your majesty is born as a dragon. You can worship the sky but not the earth. Just give him a brief salute!" Wang Jian shouted.
Qin Shihuang slightly lowered his head towards the sky outside, which was regarded as worshiping the sky.
Mu Qing, on the other hand, was supported by several women in palace attire, and then they gently pressed her head down and bowed to the sky and the earth.
Wang Jian shouted: "The ceremony is completed! Second bow to the ancestors of the Ying family!"
Qin Shihuang and Mu Qing bowed again to some of the signs above.
Wang Jian once again shouted the ceremony, and then he cleared his throat, glanced at the people below, and said slowly: "The third obeisance, husband and wife bow to each other..."
This couple's bow is the third prayer of ancient weddings, and it is also the last section of the entire worship ceremony. Once two people bow to each other, they are husband and wife from now on.
As Wang Jian's voice fell, I saw that Qin Shihuang had already lowered his head proactively, preparing to complete the prayer.
On Mu Qing's side, there were two women in palace attire holding down her head. With just a slight pressure, the worship ceremony was truly over...
Mu Qing's body didn't move. She seemed to be trying to struggle, but I saw that the two women in palace clothes beside her had stretched out their hands and held down her head.
And at this moment, the pupils of my eyes shrank violently!
Before Mu Qing's head could be pressed down, I had already moved my feet and rushed forward with Tiangang Steps!
"Emperor Qin, I'm offended!!"
In a flash of lightning, I had already arrived at Mu Qing's side, and directly drove away the two women in palace attire, blatantly destroying the final bow that was about to be completed!
Qin Shihuang's face darkened and his face suddenly filled with anger!
"Zhou Lingfeng, you dare to snatch my concubine Mu?" Qin Shihuang said angrily.
I glanced at Mu Qing behind me, and then faced Qin Shihuang's anger and said, "I think Emperor Qin made a mistake. I'm just here to take my beloved woman back, so how can I argue with this statement?"
