"Don't cry!"
Under the pavilion, surrounded by the fragrance of flowers, Yang Qing personally wiped away Qin Weiwei's tears and said tenderly, "My daughter has grown up and can't stay by my side forever. My feelings are very complicated! Weiwei, it doesn't matter if you marry him or not. It's not easy to be a human being, nor is it easy to do things. Since you've made this choice, you should know what you want. If you want to be with him forever, it's not as simple as marrying him. In this world, you have to pay a price for everything you want. There will be hardships and bitterness when you pay. If you want to be with him forever, you have to capture his heart. If his heart isn't with you, so what if you marry him? If it's just your wishful thinking, the result you desire will never happen. There is a difference between being a daughter and being a woman, do you understand? "
"En … en … en …" Regardless of whether she understood or not, Qin Weiwei nodded with tears in her eyes. She was very touched that her father had said such words to her.
Yang Qing helped her wipe her tears again. "There are some things that a man like me can't say to you. I will let Qing Mei and Qing Ju communicate with you more. They are experienced people after all. If you don't understand anything, you can ask them. They look forward to the best of you and won't hide anything from you."
"En …" Qin Weiwei still nodded.
Yang Qing held her shoulders with both hands and said emotionally, "You're going to get married! If it's a happy occasion, don't cry. Once you've sorted out your emotions, go back to Suppressing Hall. You're no longer fit to be the Hall Master of Suppressing Hall. Arrangements will be made soon. You just need to prepare for the handover. You don't have to worry about anything else.
"En!" Qin Weiwei choked.
Patting her on the shoulder, Yang Qing turned and left without any sentimental thoughts.
Only now did Qin Weiwei realize how warm her father's broad palm was. He didn't seem like her adoptive father, but more like her real father. She cried even harder.
And so, Qin Weiwei returned to Suppressing Ding Hall.
Such a joyous event couldn't be kept a secret for long. Very soon, Suppressing Ding Hall found out. Sun Traversing Palace's decree also arrived, removing Qin Weiwei from her position as Suppressing Ding Hall Master. It was said that someone else would be appointed and the successor would arrive soon. He wanted Qin Weiwei to complete the handover before returning to the Sun Traversing Palace to report on the completion of the mission. To put it bluntly, she was waiting to be married.
In her room, Qin Weiwei sat in front of her dressing table, dressed in a plain white dress and with her long hair draped over her shoulders. She was both looking forward to and nervous to the day that was about to come. Recently, she had been thinking too much.
Hong Mian and Lu Liu's footsteps seemed to have become more cheerful as well. Master was finally going to marry someone. After going around in circles, the person she was going to marry was still that person.
Even though they were in a cheerful mood, it was still difficult to conceal the sliver of dissatisfaction in the two ladies' hearts. Hong Mian, who was combing Qin Weiwei's hair, grumbled, "Young Miss should have been the legal wife. If it weren't for the Lord Head Steward breaking up the lovebirds that year, that surnamed Yun wouldn't even have a chance."
Qin Weiwei stared into the mirror and said, "Don't say such things again in the future. It's not good for anyone."
"I know. I'm just feeling indignant on behalf of Young Miss. I'm just saying it in front of Young Miss," Hong Mian muttered.
In the mirror, Hong Mian and Lu Liu, who were busy working together, also had traces of aging on their faces. Qin Weiwei sighed softly, "The two of you have been with me for so many years. It must have been hard on you. Don't worry. After we're married, I will persuade His Lordship to take you in as his concubines as soon as possible. You can't be a woman your entire life and not know what it's like to be a woman."
As soon as these words came out, the two ladies' faces instantly flushed red.
The two of them were part of the dowry, so this day was bound to come sooner or later. That was why their footsteps were so cheerful and their hearts were filled with joy when they heard of the marriage. However, it was a little embarrassing to be seen through so easily.
However, with their master's words, they were both embarrassed and glad at the same time. Not all of the mistress' personal handmaidens were this lucky. Some personal handmaidens would never marry their master for the rest of their lives if they met one. In that case, they could only follow their master and live as a widow for the rest of their lives. Some were even worse. The mistress was extremely possessive and wouldn't let the male master touch them. It wasn't like they hadn't seen such personal handmaidens before. As they grew older, they would always wear a face that made them look weak and widowed. They would act as though someone owed them money, and the word 'heartless' was written all over their faces. It was frightening to look at them. Just as their master had said, people like that never knew what it was like to be a woman …
There was no need for the handover at the Sun Traversing Palace. Yun Zhiqiu would naturally take care of it once she was stationed at Jade Capital Peak. They only needed to make some arrangements here.
Once everything was settled, Yun Zhiqiu led the crowd to the capital city and personally handed over the handover to Zong Zhen, officially becoming the Fifth Earthly Branch's Overlord.
The prosperity of the capital city was like a dream, like it was a scene from a painting. Yun Zhiqiu, who had just taken over, was very busy as she oversaw the golden hall. Not only did she have to attend to the ceremony, but she also had to attend to the various Palace Lords and guests, as well as various other matters of various sizes.
Even though Miao Yi was immediately appointed as the Fifth Earthly Branch's Wayfarer by Yun Zhiqiu's side, he didn't interfere in any matters, and basically didn't show his face. Now that Yun Zhiqiu was in charge and Yang Qing was in charge, no one could ask him to do anything. Having fought his way up, he had become a complete idler.
As a result, he either cultivated in seclusion, or went boating on the Jade Lake with Lin Pingping. It would have been fine if he could spend the rest of his life leisurely like this, but that wasn't realistic.
On the other hand, Lin Pingping was even more emotional than he was. She didn't expect things to turn out this way. Miao Yi's wife had actually become the master of this prosperous capital city, and the master of the countless followers of the Fifth Earthly Branch.
Above the blue waves, the evening breeze was gentle. The setting sun dyed the water red, and the waves sparkled. On a small flower boat, Miao Yi, who seemed to be dozing off, said, "Lin Pingping, there's no longer a need for your position of being in charge of the news of the capital city anymore. Your cultivation is sufficient to become a Manor Head. You can pick any Manor in the Fifth Earthly Branch. Just tell me if you fancy one, and I will arrange it for you."
Beside him, Lin Pingping said awkwardly, "I'm used to living a carefree life. I can't do anything serious. I'm afraid I'm not up to the task of scheming."
Miao Yi closed his eyes and replied, "As you know, I have another identity. I'm the Middle Host of the Sea of Constellations. I have a palace in the Sea of Constellations, and it just so happens that I don't have anyone to guard it. Are you willing to go?"
Lin Pingping was silent for a moment, then said, "Milord, if you think it's necessary, I will do as you say!"
"You don't sound too willing." Miao Yi said slowly and lazily, "If you have something on your mind, then just say it."
Lin Pingping sighed, "I don't know what's wrong with me either. I've grown attached to the prosperity of this world. I love watching the people of this world slowly grow old, and the newbies start over again. The cycle repeats itself, and I never get tired of watching it!"
Miao Yi suddenly stretched out a hand and pointed at her on the rocking chair, "I promise you that you will be free and unfettered for the rest of your life! Of course, the prerequisite is that I still have the ability to do so. I'll keep this carefree life for you! "
Lin Pingping was stunned. She suddenly realized that Miao Yi had lost his usual high-spirited demeanor, giving off a feeling of extreme boredom …
Meanwhile, the Realm Beyond Heaven's Second Young Master, An Ruyu, had already arrived at Jade Capital Peak. Her reason for coming was to congratulate Yun Zhiqiu on her promotion, but her true purpose was to discuss her daughter's wedding date with Yun Zhiqiu.
Speaking of which, An Ruyu had no choice but to discuss this matter with Yun Zhiqiu. She was going to be the legal wife of the family in the future, so she would be in charge of everything related to the concubines. Not to mention, Yun Zhiqiu was the Fifth Earthly Branch's Overlord. She was obviously in charge of the family. If she offended Yun Zhiqiu, she was afraid that her daughter would have a hard time in the future. Who else could she look for but Yun Zhiqiu?
While they were discussing, Yun Zhiqiu called Yang Qing over to discuss the matter together. After all, Yang Qing was going to marry off his daughter as well, so she couldn't ignore his opinion.
They picked an auspicious day for the wedding, and it was to be held half a month later.
Originally, Yun Zhiqiu had wanted to make a big deal out of it, as she didn't want the three newlyweds to suffer. However, An Ruyu and Yang Qing both objected, requesting for a simple ceremony, as there was no reason to make a big deal out of a concubine's wedding.
At this point, An Ruyu didn't want to overshadow Yun Zhiqiu's wedding. She was afraid that offending Yun Zhiqiu would cause trouble for her daughter. Yang Qing was also worried. Since she was going to be a concubine, she should have the awareness of being one.
Seeing that she couldn't persuade them, Yun Zhiqiu went along with their wishes. In fact, she was a little pleased with herself. 'At least you two know your place. You haven't forgotten who the legal wife is!'
With the matter settled, An Ruyu finally left with peace of mind. She really wanted to settle this matter before she and her husband were punished. She didn't want to cast a shadow over her daughter's wedding day.
The wedding was handed over to Yang Qing and Yan Xiu, with both the Head Stewards and the Head Stewards in charge. Miao Yi couldn't be bothered with this. As he said to Yun Zhiqiu, 'I'll just wait to enter the bridal chamber!'
In the end, Yun Zhiqiu gave him a vicious kick on the calf!
Miao Yi had taken three concubines at the same time, and it was Mu Fanjun who had personally decreed the marriage. Naturally, the news had spread throughout the cultivation realm. Most of the people who didn't know the truth found it strange. 'Why did this Celestial Sage Mu Fanjun keep stuffing women into Miao Yi's hands? 'Why can't I have such luck with women?'
Because of this, Miao Yi's reputation became even more bizarre. Those who hadn't met him before really wanted to witness his glory.
One of the handmaidens of the First Child, Ouyang Guang, arrived. With Ouyang Guang? On Mu Jiao? Chest? Wo Xi Feng Luo Fu? Desolate Sea Grinded Cricket Chlorine Death Poke? Vinegar Fold? Peptide Collected Mantis Hammer? Feed?
While Jade Capital Peak was sorting out the affairs of the Fifth Earthly Branch and preparing for the wedding, Yang Qing, who was so busy that he didn't have time to cultivate, was in the Head Steward's Manor, trying to understand the situation of the Fifth Earthly Branch. At this moment, Qing Ju ran in with an abnormal expression on her face. With a trembling voice, she said, "Milord! Someone wishes to see you! "
"Who is it?" Yang Qing raised his head and asked. He also noticed that Qing Ju's reaction wasn't right.
Qing Ju placed a jade disk on the table. She pursed her lips and didn't say a word.
Yang Qing was suspicious. He took the jade disk and looked at it in his hand. He abruptly stood up, his eyes wide open and his breathing ragged. There were only a few words on the jade disk: Zhuo Shui River, Qin!
Seeing as he looked like he had been struck by lightning, Qing Mei quickly looked at Qing Ju with a questioning gaze. The latter was obviously not in the right state of mind and didn't understand.
After a long while, Yang Qing's Adam's apple moved with difficulty as he said, "She doesn't even know who I am. How did she find this place? Was it her?"
Qing Ju shook her head. "Someone sent a message to me. I didn't go out to meet her!"
"She must have been attracted by the commotion of the wedding. Please leave!" Yang Qing sighed softly.
After Qing Ju left, Qing Mei quickly asked, "Milord, what happened?"
Yang Qing passed the jade disk in his hand over. "Take a look for yourself."
