Shangguan Lingxiu mumbled to herself.
"What's the use even if we force ourselves to be together? To be a vase protected by him for the rest of my life? Even if he doesn't mind and I'm willing to give in, would that still be me, Shangguan Lingxiu? "
At the door, Old Mistress Shangguan held her dragon-headed walking stick, her eyes filled with deep pity.
She could not help but recall something …
…
"King Yun, your Yun Yang isn't young anymore. When this old one's son was his age, he was already the father of two children. As a father, why aren't you considering his marriage?"
"Yun Yang is stubborn. I've never forced him, including marriage."
"What do you think of my Lingxiu, King Yun? It's rare that the two of them are in love. Isn't it a wonderful thing for our families to be in-laws? Marshal Qiu mentioned to this old one that he's willing to be the matchmaker. "
"Old Mistress, regarding Yun Yang, rather than saying that I've never forced him, it's more accurate to say that he's never bothered me. Everything about this child … I can't make decisions for him. Especially marriage, it has to depend on his own opinion. "
"Hehehe … Looks like the Cloud King is not optimistic about this marriage."
"No, no. I'm happy to see it happen, even willing to facilitate it with all my might. However, Yun Yang still has to make the final decision himself."
"Marriage is the order of parents and the words of the matchmaker. This old one understands King Yun's intentions. I'll take my leave now."
"Old Mistress …"
"No need to send me off!"
The old mistress recalled the last time she came to Yun Xiaoyao to propose marriage. She had thought that if she were to disregard her own dignity and come forward, Yun Duanduan would not be able to reject her. He would definitely agree to it immediately and happily.
What she did not expect was that Yun Xiaoyao's reaction was like this. Despite all his good words, it did not work out in the end.
Old Mistress Shangguan left in a huff and viewed Yun Xiaoyao as an enemy from then on.
Only now did she know.
There was not a single lie in what Yun Xiaoyao had said at that time.
It was true that he was happy to see the marriage happen and was willing to facilitate it, but it was even more true that he could not make the decision for Yun Yang!
Supreme Cloud of the Nine Supremes!
Supreme Cloud who dominated the world and the martial world!
How could Yun Xiaoyao make the decision for Supreme Cloud? Especially marriage, such an important matter of one's life!
Even His Majesty would not dare to make decisions for Supreme Cloud!
Ever since she knew that Yun Yang was Supreme Cloud, Old Mistress Shangguan's wisdom and experience allowed her to immediately guess that Yun Yang was not Yun Xiaoyao's biological son!
Recalling Yun Xiaoyao's helpless expression, Old Mistress Shangguan sighed.
"So, I have wronged Yun Xiaoyao at that time. My selfishness has gotten the better of me," Old Mistress Shangguan murmured to herself.
Now that Lingxiu and Yun Yang were together, it seemed that Lingxiu had fallen behind quite a bit. It was not in terms of family background, appearance, or temperament; it was only in terms of cultivation ability …
However, the cultivation of strength was something that could not be achieved in a short period of time.
Old Mistress Shangguan closed her eyes and sighed, mumbling, "It's time to let Lingxiu seek her own happiness … The Shangguan Family of Generals has really held her back for far too long …"
…
"Lingxiu," Old Mistress Shangguan called out softly.
Shangguan Lingxiu lifted her head as if she had just woken up from a dream. She had been lost in her thoughts just now and did not realize that the old mistress was already in front of her.
"Old granny."
"What are you thinking about?"
"Nothing." Shangguan Lingxiu smiled, looking as if she was doing very well.
"It's good that you're fine. I just remembered that there's something important to do. Come with me," Old Mistress Shangguan said.
She turned to leave as soon as she finished speaking.
Shangguan Lingxiu looked back worriedly and glanced at Fang Mofei and Bai Yixue who were standing guard on both sides. Only then did she follow Old Mistress Shangguan, turning back repeatedly with every step.
…
Shangguan Ancestral Hall.
"Old granny, why did you bring me here?" Shangguan Lingxiu asked in surprise, looking at the ancestral tablets.
What important matter could there be here that was so urgent and urgent?!
"We, the Shangguan Family, have a very special secret."
Old Mistress Shangguan said in a low voice, "This originated from the first ancestor of the Shangguan Family. Back then, the first ancestor came across a heavily injured person who was on the verge of death. The first ancestor tried his best to save the person, but the person disappeared without a word of thanks after he recovered. The first ancestor's intention was to save the person, so he didn't mind if there was a word of thanks. However, a year later, another person came looking for him, saying to thank him for saving his life and that he could fulfill one of his wishes, even saying that it could be anything! However, the first ancestor's main purpose in life was to help those in danger. He really didn't have the intention to repay his kindness, so he rejected it directly. "
"However, that person insisted on leaving three joss sticks, saying that if he had any requests in the future, he only needed to light the three joss sticks and someone would come to help. He also said that anything would be fine. "
"If that was all, I'm afraid First Ancestor wouldn't have placed this matter in his heart and forgotten about the three incense sticks. However, after that person handed over the three incense sticks, he waved his hand and moved the ancestral grave of Shangguan Family. He said solemnly that from then on, the descendants of Shangguan Family would all be invincible generals who won hundreds of battles and would be nobles for generations to come."
Shangguan Lingxiu's scalp was already numb from the shock of the story when she heard this.
Who was that person? How could he have such a remarkable ability? With a wave of his hand, he could move the ancestral graves and change the fengshui. It was already impressive to be able to be a nobleman for generations, yet he could even decide that the Shangguan Family of Generals would be passed down. It was a remarkable technique. What was more, a wish could be anything?
This statement was a little too exaggerated. Only a legend could have such ability!
"After the person said this, he disappeared in front of the first ancestor. Only then did First Ancestor come to a realization. He knew that he had met an unparalleled expert, so he naturally passed down the three sticks of incense from generation to generation. He even passed down the teachings of his ancestors: If the later generations have exceptional talents, they can rely on these three sticks of incense to achieve an unparalleled immortal fate. "
"I don't know if it was a prophecy or the fate of the fengshui, but the Shangguan Family has been a family of generals since then, being nobles for generations to come … It's really like what that person said. However, because this secret is too important, the three joss sticks have been passed down and have never been used, until today. "
Old Mistress Shangguan looked at Shangguan Lingxiu. "Looking at you, I was suddenly enlightened. Can't these three joss sticks help you achieve your wish? Although your wish is difficult to achieve, it's still within the scope of anything!"
Shangguan Lingxiu was stunned.
Achieve my wish?
How should I put it?
Deny it?
How many people in the Shangguan Family did not know of my wish?
