< Today's first update! >
Dongfang Wen Xin laughed heartily and pulled Guan Qing Han into his arms. With a face full of smiles, he said, "It's all the same, all the same! Hahaha, this time, I can only wait to hold my grandson, haha … "
In Jun Moxie's small courtyard, Ye Guhan sat alone on a stone bench, humming an unknown sad song. His expression was deep and lonely, but his eyes were burning with passion as he looked at the stone table in front of him.
There were words written on it.
At the moment of family reunion, Ye Guhan sat alone, using a knife in his left hand to carve a name on the stone table in front of him: Xiu Xiu, Xiu Xiu, Xiu Xiu …
The fragrance of wine filled the air from all directions. Ye Guhan smiled miserably, threw away the knife, grabbed the jar of wine at his feet, raised it, and poured it into his mouth. His Adam's apple moved up and down as he swallowed, but his eyes were still fixed on the name on the stone table.
Finally, the wine was finished, and he was drunk.
Ye Gu Han gently pressed his cheek against the stone table. He pressed his cheek against the ice-cold handwriting, and silently roared, "Xiu Xiu …"
A stream of tears flowed out silently, dripping onto the stone table, right where the name 'Xiu Xiu' was carved, slowly condensing into a piece of ice …
In comparison, although the Jun Family was the one who made the announcement, they were also the one who completely stirred up the world. It could be said that they were the initiators. A single announcement from Jun Moxie had instantly thrown the world into chaos, making the already complicated world even more chaotic!
But the Jun Family, the initiator of all this, was probably the most relaxed one!
At least, the other families were in a state of unease.
In the Imperial Palace, His Majesty, the Emperor, was facing a table of extremely luxurious food and wine. His brows were tightly knitted, and he did not even have the mood to lift his chopsticks to try the food.
The rise of the Jun Family was unstoppable. In fact, it was progressing at a rapid pace!
Back in Tian Xiang City, they were just an ordinary aristocratic family. So what if they had the reputation of 'One Family, Four Military Gods, Three Generations and Six Marshals'? They were just officials. It was just an empty title. But now, they actually dared to say in front of the entire world: Those who follow me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish!
This was undoubtedly the most naked provocation to the Imperial Family!
If he didn't have enough confidence, how would he dare to make such an unbridled threat to the entire world?
The Emperor of Tian Xiang didn't want to admit it, but he had no choice but to admit that the Jun Family wasn't something that the Emperor could control anymore. In fact, the current imperial power had to rely on the Jun Family!
Last time, the Second Prince had been scared to the point of incontinence at the gates of Tian Xiang City. Jun Moxie hadn't done anything to hide it, and had directly led the two troublemakers back to the Jun Family. Afterwards, he hadn't even given an explanation, as if nothing had happened!
His Royal Highness was injured by a guest of the Jun Family, but the Jun Family didn't even give an explanation!
It was as if such a thing had never happened before, and it went against the rules of the Emperor and his subjects!
But the Imperial Family actually just let it go and let it go, just like that!
In fact, even if the Imperial Family didn't want to let it go, and wanted to pursue the matter, what could they do?
Even if they forcefully pursued the matter, the result would only be worse!
Who in the world didn't know that the Jun Family's Third Young Master, Jun Moxie, wasn't a reasonable person? He dared to kill a living person in broad daylight! Who didn't know that the Jun Family's strength had reached an unimaginable level? Even the Great Masters, and those above the Great Master level, had to come and go alive!
Today, the Jun Family was second to none in the world! Even if they faced the formidable strength of the Three Holy Lands, they could still force them to return in defeat, let alone others!
So what if it was the Imperial Power?
The Imperial Power, which was supreme in the eyes of ordinary people, was no longer in the eyes of the Jun Family!
Thinking of this, the Emperor closed his eyes sadly, raised his neck, and gulped down a full cup of wine, choking and coughing. This originally sweet wine was so bitter when it entered his mouth, and it was difficult to swallow!
Originally, any country would be happy and fortunate to have a super family like the Jun Family emerge in it. Because, with such a colossus overseeing it, they could intimidate everyone for at least a few hundred years! Although such a family wouldn't directly participate in invasions, they wouldn't allow enemies to invade their country!
Such a family was a powerful protective talisman for a country!
But now, for the Emperor of Tian Xiang, this protective talisman had become a fatal poison!
It was the most lethal and life-threatening poison!
Jun Wu Hui ah … Isn't this all for you?!
A face appeared in front of the Emperor's eyes, dignified with wisdom, and calm yet sharp eyes. There was generosity and benevolence in his decisiveness to kill, and there was indifference and confidence in his disdain!
The God of War, Jun Wu Hui!
The General in White!
Do I regret it? Do I regret it? If I didn't make that decision back then, wouldn't the Jun Family be my greatest help now?
His Majesty shook his head bitterly. I don't regret it, yes; I don't regret it! I would still choose to do the same thing if I could do it all over again. Because I am the Emperor! I will never allow such a thing to happen!
Since the Emperor has no regrets, I also have no regrets!
It's just that fate makes fools of people!
Winner takes all; this is nothing more than that!
His Majesty swallowed that mouthful of wine with difficulty, as if he had drunk all the flavors of life.
I don't regret it! It's useless to regret it!
Jun Moxie, I want to see how long you can endure!
Thinking of Jun Mo Xie, His Majesty the Emperor thought of the last effort he had put in. That day, after the banquet where Jun Wuyi had adopted Guan Qing Han as his daughter, the Emperor had a long talk with Jun Zhan Tian.
Recalling that long talk, the Emperor's lips curled into a bitter smile.
"Brother Jun, you and I haven't had such a good drink for a few years. It seems that your tolerance for alcohol hasn't decreased at all; in fact, it's even better than before." His Majesty still used the title they used when they were conquering the world together, but it seemed like he hadn't used it for a long time.
"Your Majesty is too kind; this old man is already old and no longer the same as before, haha." When Jun Zhan Tian spoke, His Majesty could clearly hear it. Jun Zhan Tian called himself 'old man', but not 'old subject'; this clearly showed the choice in Jun Zhan Tian's heart.
"Brother Jun, what are you talking about? You are indeed old but vigorous." His Majesty pretended not to hear it, and spoke of the purpose of this banquet under the cover of his drunkenness. "Brother Jun, half a year ago, you mentioned to me about the marriage of two children. Haha, today, I will ask again shamelessly; is it possible for Reimu and Mo Xie?"
"Haha … regarding the marriage, this old man can't make the decision for Mo Xie now. Let's not talk about the distant matters, let's talk about Qing Han. In order to save that bastard, she made such a big sacrifice. How can our Jun Family let her down? Also, there is the apple of the Dugu family's eye … sigh, it has caused a huge uproar. How could Mo Xie be a match for Princess Ling Meng, a woman of heaven's pride? "Grandpa Jun politely declined. Although his tone was tactful, there was no leeway for him to change his mind.
"Miss Qing Han has sacrificed a lot for Mo Xie. She is indeed a woman of great wisdom and courage. Naturally, she is a good match for Mo Xie. She should be the first choice for the first wife. Naturally, I will not separate them. I believe that Reimu will not mind. If Mo Xie is willing to treat her as a co-wife …" His Majesty hadn't finished his probing speech when he was interrupted by Grandpa Jun.
"How can a dignified Princess be a co-wife? How is this any different from being a concubine? Where would the face of the Royal Family go?! "Grandpa Jun spoke in a righteous and resolute manner. He even said that he was thinking for the sake of the Royal Family.
…
Speaking of which, it was really ironic. Every dog has its day. Only half a year had passed. Half a year ago, Jun Zhan Tian had put down his pride and asked the Emperor to marry off his daughter in order to preserve the last of the Jun Family's bloodline. At that time, he had been mercilessly rejected. At that time, even he could imagine how embarrassed and desperate Jun Zhan Tian must have been.
But just half a year later, it was his turn to taste this kind of embarrassment and despair! The subject of the conversation was still Jun Moxie and Princess Reimu; it was still about their marriage. But this time, Jun Zhan Tian was just like himself. He refused without any room for negotiation!
The two people who were talking did not change. The content did not change either. The only difference was that the content was changed one by one. The original rejecter had become the one being rejected. The original requestor had become the one being requested!
Sure enough, every dog has its day. But, how could it take ten years?
In just half a year, the world had been turned upside down!
That night, His Majesty the Emperor had lost all hope! From Jun Zhan Tian's expression, he already knew the result! The only thing he didn't know was how Jun Moxie would deal with him.
But that was no longer important. It didn't matter anymore!
In the palace, in another direction.
The Empress and Princess Reimu sat facing each other without saying a word. New Year's Eve was supposed to be a night of reunion, but the Emperor and the Empress rejected the proposal at the same time. Both chambers were cold and cheerless, and there was a deathly stillness.
During this period of time, Princess Ling Meng had become thinner day by day. Her eyes had become bigger, but her originally healthy and rosy face had now become dry and bloodless. She had become so thin that she looked like she was out of shape.
"Meng 'er, don't torture yourself too much. There is no reason for the younger generation to bear the burden of the previous generation's affairs. " The Empress's voice was particularly heavy. She patiently comforted her daughter. "Relax, I will take care of everything for you."
Princess Reimu shook her head slowly. Her eyes were listless as she looked at the flickering candlelight on the table. Two drops of tears flowed down slowly. "Mother … I don't want to bear this burden. I just … feel bad."
"Bad? Why would you feel bad? "Murong Xiu Xiu looked at her daughter in a daze. She was extremely surprised.
Princess Reimu's face was sad. She murmured, "Sin, this is the sin of my previous life. How did things turn out like this? How did it turn out like this? How did it turn out like this …" Her usually beautiful eyes were devoid of any spirit, only endless confusion and sadness!
