In a secluded and exquisite pavilion in the market square of the capital city.
Tang Fengwu stood in front of the open wooden window, looking at the sky. Her beautiful eyes flickered incessantly. No one knew what she was thinking.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. A clear and melodious female voice suddenly sounded, "Sister, I'm Huo Wu. Is it convenient to see me?"
"Huo Wu! Come in! " Tang Fengwu's face warmed. She shook her sleeve at the door and opened it. A thin girl in a red dress came in.
The girl in the red dress had the same facial features as Tang Fengwu, but her figure was slightly thin.
"Elder Sister, I heard that you're going to get married. So, I immediately rushed back. This is my congratulatory gift to you — two stalks of Thousand Years Fire Cloud Mushrooms," Tang Huowu said with a smile. Then, she took out two foot-long red wooden boxes from her sleeve.
"You're so considerate. Just put them on the table." Tang Fengwu nodded and said lightly.
Tang Huo Wu raised her eyebrows and looked Tang Fengwu up and down. She frowned and said, "Sister, you've formed your Nascent Soul now. Who dares to bully you? Is it brother-in-law? I'll teach him a lesson for you. "
"No, no one bullied me." Tang Fengwu smiled bitterly and shook her head.
"Since no one bullied you, why do you look so unhappy? Brother-in-law is the grandson of Zhenren Ziyang, one of the four great loose cultivators of the Song Dynasty. He has a Wood Spirit Body. He formed his Gold Core at 100 years old and broke his Gold Core at 200 years old. He's a perfect match for you. Don't you like Brother-in-law? What if you don't like Brother-in-law? Why do you want to marry him? With your status, there's no need to be a tool for marriage! "
"Sister used to think so, but later I found that I was wrong. I was born in the imperial family. I can't make a decision about marriage." Tang Fengwu said with a wry smile. She suddenly thought of something and said seriously, "Don't worry, with me here, I won't let you be a tool for marriage. If you like someone, just tell me and I'll definitely help you."
"So, father and others still use you as a tool for marriage? This won't do. I'm going to find Father and ask him clearly. You've already formed your Nascent Soul. How can he still use you as a tool for a marriage alliance? "When Tang Huowu heard this, she immediately became anxious and turned around to leave.
Tang Fengwu's face sank. She shouted, "Stop right there, Huo Wu. You don't need to look for Father. I did this willingly."
"Impossible! How could you be willing to do this? You've already formed your Nascent Soul. If they didn't force you, how could you have done it willingly?! "Tang Huowu's face was full of suspicion.
"By sacrificing myself, we can rope in three Yuanying cultivators for this marriage. In addition to your brother-in-law, who's at the early stage of the Yuanying Realm, there are also Zhenren Ziyang and Xuan Zhenzi, who are at the late stage of the Yuanying Realm. Our Imperial family hasn't had an easy time these past few years. Both the righteous and demonic sects have been suppressing us. We finally managed to open up overseas trade with great difficulty, but the righteous and demonic sects have joined hands to deal with us. With two more late stage Yuanying Realm cultivators, our days will be better in the future. This is our fate. We've been destined since we were born. "When she finished speaking, Tang Fengwu's expression became gloomy.
"Even if it's a marriage alliance, why don't you let Cousin Yunluo and the others do it? Why do you have to go? At most, we can just give them more resources," Tang Huowu said with a pout. Her pretty face was full of anger.
Tang Fengwu sighed and explained, "Cousin Yunluo is only at the middle stage of the Yuanying Realm. Her aptitude is also relatively ordinary. She only reached her current realm by relying on medicinal pills. Your brother-in-law doesn't like her at all. He specifically said that he wants to become Dual Cultivation Dao Companions with me. We want to rope in two late stage Yuanying Realm cultivators, and your brother-in-law also wants to join our Imperial family. This marriage is good for everyone."
"But …"
"Alright, you don't have to say anymore. Both the Righteous Path and the Devil Path have been suppressing our Imperial Family more and more in recent years. If we don't ask for some powerful foreign aid, it will be very difficult for us to survive. In a perilous nest, no egg can escape unscathed. The previous Imperial Family is the best example. You don't have to worry about my matters. If you like someone, tell me immediately. I can help you to make things happen. You must marry the person you like in the future. With me here, I won't let you become a tool for marriage." Tang Fengwu held Tang Huowu's hands and said dotingly.
Hearing this, Tang Huowu felt warm in her heart and threw herself into Tang Fengwu's arms.
Tang Fengwu gently patted Tang Huowu's back and murmured to herself in a low voice, "If there is an afterlife, I'd like to be reborn in the imperial family."
… ….
In a bright hall, Tang Xuanji, Tang Tianming, and Tang Yugang were discussing something.
"Second brother, the people we sent to send the invitations have all come back. After learning that we are going to marry Zhenren Ziyang, Taoist Nun Yu Hua, Yi Luoshan, Huang Yun Guan, and many other forces have expressed that they will come to celebrate in person. It seems that Zhenren Ziyang and Xuanzhenzi are very useful. When we invited them to attend the wedding banquets of our Imperial family's children, they always sent people. Now they are coming to celebrate in person, which is enough to show that Zhenren Ziyang and Xuanzhenzi are very famous," Tang Tianming said with a smile.
Tang Xuanji smiled and said, "Although Zhenren Ziyang and Xuanzhenzi are casual cultivators, they have a wide range of friends and have a great influence among casual cultivators. Otherwise, the Old Man wouldn't have agreed to this marriage. By the way, how is Fengwu recently? She didn't throw a tantrum, did she? "
"No, Fengwu has been staying in Fengwu Pavilion and hasn't left even a step. I watched this child grow up. I know that she is obedient and sensible, and she will take the big picture into consideration," Tang Tianming shook his head and said truthfully.
"I know that Fengwu is obedient and sensible, but this marriage is very important. You should send two people to keep an eye on Fengwu Pavilion. Now the whole Great Song knows that Fengwu is going to marry Zhenren Ziyang's grandson. If something happens, our Imperial family will become the laughing stock of Great Song's cultivation world. We will also offend the casual cultivators led by Zhenren Ziyang and Xuanzhenzi. If that happens, our Imperial family will be destroyed soon," Tang Xuanji said worriedly with a straight face.
"Second Uncle, Fengwu knows the importance of this marriage. There is no need to send people to keep an eye on her and cause her dissatisfaction. She is now a Yuanying cultivator. If she doesn't want to get married, are you going to tie her up and force her to get married? There is no need to send people to keep an eye on her, "Tang Tianming said with a frown.
"This … Alright! However, during this period of time, we must keep a tight watch on the outside. Don't let anything go wrong. Right now, the whole Great Song's cultivation world is watching our Imperial family, "Tang Xuanji said with a serious expression after thinking for a while.
Right at this moment, an ear-piercing sound came from Tang Xuanji's chest.
Tang Tianming raised his eyebrows and took out a white jade plate from his bosom. The surface of the white jade plate flashed with white light and emitted an ear-piercing sound.
He cast a spell on the white jade plate. The white jade plate flashed wildly for a few times before its light dimmed. A hurried female voice suddenly sounded, "Seventh Uncle, there's a senior with the surname Wang who says she's looking for you."
"Surnamed Wang? Could it be Wang Changsheng? Why is he back so soon? "Tang Tianming's face lit up with joy.
Tang Xuanji raised his eyebrows and asked Tang Tianming, "Tianming, I asked you to send people to investigate this Wang Changsheng. Have you found out?"
