There was no joy in the phoenix crown and red robes, but there was an inexhaustible sadness.
When Cui Xiaoxin was helped out by a group of attendants and maids, all eyes were on her.
Although they couldn't see Cui Xiaoxin's face clearly, her graceful figure and the temperament she exuded were still stunning and intoxicating. The Four Bright Moons of Tiandu were famous throughout West Wind, to be able to receive such praise was naturally well-deserved.
Lord Hui of West Wind Kingdom sat at the head of the hall, watching Cui Xiaoxin leisurely walking over, laughed and praised: "Good. Sure. The bright moon of Tiandu matched the jade tree of the Song Family. A perfect match made in heaven and earth. Just looking at it makes me happy. "
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, you flatter me. Tingyun and Xiaoxin are still young, Your Majesty needs to teach them a lot. "Song Zhongmou quickly bowed to express his gratitude. Since the Old Immortal was not here, he was the oldest elder in the Song Clan. Of course, in terms of status, he was naturally inferior to Gu Qinglin who held the position of Prime Minister in the imperial court. However, everyone knew that Gu Qinglin got the position of Prime Minister because of the Song enterprise. Although Song Zhongmou only held a noble and idle position in order to avoid the taboo, the weight of his words far exceeded that of others.
After all, he was the Patriarch of the Song clan.
"I am very happy to see such an outstanding child. Why do we need to admonish them? " The King of the Hui nation waved his hand and said, "My children, on the other hand, are rather immature. They need to be disciplined and sharpened."
"Your Majesty is too modest. All the princes and princesses are dragons and phoenixes among men. You are one in a million … How could you be so young and inexperienced? "Song Zhongmou promptly gave a few flattering words when others were being polite to him.
In any case, flattery was free!
"Great, that's great." The King of the Hui nation's right hand gently tapped on his knee as he said, "The marriage between the Cui and Song families, the most powerful family in Tiandu and the second most powerful family in Tiandu, the Cui family … It is indeed a well-matched match. Anyone who knew about such a thing would have to praise it. I can't help but praise him. "
"…"
The smile on Song Zhongmou's face didn't change, but there was a sharp glint in the corner of his eyes.
There were many things that everyone was well aware of. Saying it out loud would be tantamount to shedding all pretense of cordiality in front of everyone … What? Do you, a puppet emperor, still want to struggle?
"Whether it is the Song family or the Cui family, they are all citizens of the West Wind Kingdom, are all subjects of His Majesty." Gu Qinglin explained. "No matter how powerful the Song family and the Cui family are, it's all thanks to His Majesty's grace and care. All lands under the heavens belonged to the King. Those who lead the land are all ministers of the king. In His Majesty's eyes, there was no distinction between the first and second clans. They're just a bunch of servants working for His Majesty. "
"Don't belittle yourself like that. The Song clan and the Cui clan are the pillars of my West Wind — — Old immortal Song is my teacher and elder, how can he say that he is a group of slaves? You are not allowed to say such things in the future. We do not like it. "
"Yes, Your Majesty." Gu Qinglin and Song Zhongmou looked at each other and responded respectfully.
"Don't think too much about it. The Cui and Song Family have become in-laws, Zhen is very happy in my heart. In the future, with the Cui and Song Family, my West Wind Kingdom will be invincible. "King Hui said with a hearty laugh.
Song Zhongmou sneered in his heart, thinking that the Cui and Song Family's marriage alliance, the one who will feel the most uncomfortable is you, right?
Originally he had some scruples, worried that this marriage would cause a strong backlash from the Chu clan. But this marriage was arranged by Old immortal and the old Duke of the Cui family. Neither of them had said anything about canceling the marriage, so there was no need for him to make them unhappy.
"The auspicious time has come, Your Majesty please attend the ceremony."
"Good." King Hui picked up the teacup next to him and took a sip. As he lowered his head, there was a fierce and fierce glint in his eyes.
Chu Ning stood next to Chu Xun, feeling uneasy all over.
Chu Xun did not say a word, just stood there quietly, but exuded a gloomy, terrifying and dangerous aura.
This feeling was like being coveted by a king cobra in the jungle, or being stalked by a ferocious evil spirit. Chu Ning only felt her body was cold, and before she knew it, there was a fine layer of sweat on her forehead. The sweat was also cold.
Chu Ning moved two steps to the side, but the feeling of being restrained did not lessen much.
"Sister, what are you so nervous about?" As if sensing Chu Ning's attitude, Chu Xun took the initiative to ask. "Are you afraid that I will eat you?"
"Brother, when am I afraid? I just … feel that it's stuffy here, I don't feel comfortable. "Chu Ning explained. "Maybe it's because there are too many people attending the ceremony. It makes me a little uncomfortable. "
"That's good. I thought that Sister dislikes Brother because you are blind, so you don't want to stand with me. " Chu Xun said with a smile, "I used to have the best relationship with Sister, if even you look down on me like this, I will feel very sad."
"Why would I? I have always been concerned about Brother's health. "Chu Ning said with a smile.
"Do you think … he will come?" Chu Xun asked.
"Who? Who will come? "
"That little dragon … Li Muyang, do you think he will come?" Chu Xun asked with a strange smile on his face.
Chu Ning's heart suddenly sank, as if she had been ruthlessly hit by a heavy weapon.
She tried hard to maintain the calmness on her face and the calmness of her voice, and said with a smile, "Brother really knows how to joke. Today is the Song family's wedding, how dare that little dragon come here? There are so many masters at the scene, and there is an old immortal guarding outside the city, does he not want to live? "
"But, I heard that Song Tinyun sent him an invitation in public … the woman he likes is married to someone else, he can't just sit back and do nothing, right?"
"That's only possible if you're still alive. That little dragon is so insidious and ruthless, he definitely won't do such a risky thing … "
"That's not true." Chu Xun looked confident, and said in a low voice, "Do you want to make a bet? I bet he will come. "
"I bet … he won't come." Chu Ning said in a firm voice.
Chu Xun looked in Chu Ning's direction. Even though his eyes had been gouged out and his empty eye sockets were still wrapped in silk, Chu Ning felt as though he had seen through her internal organs.
"Abnormal, very abnormal …" Chu Ning thought irritably in her heart, "He must know something. How could he know? He's just a blind, derelict prince. "
A respectable old man stood next to the newlyweds. He was this time's eulogist. He cleared his throat and said in a clear voice, "First bow to heaven and earth."
Under the guidance of the matchmaker, Cui Xiaoxin and Song Tinyun turned to the sky and bowed.
"Second bow to the emperor."
Cui Xiaoxin and Song Tinyun bowed to the position where the King of the Hui nation sat at the same time.
Originally, there was no such thing in the etiquette, but the King of the Hui nation came in person, which gave the family enough face. The emperor was the third great god after the heaven and earth, so they should pay their respects.
"Third bow to the ancestors …"
The celebrant yelled with a drawn-out voice.
Rumble — —
Under the ground, there was suddenly an earth-shaking rumble.
The flagstones were shattered, the ground was sinking, and even the walls of the Song clan's mansion were crumbling, as if they would collapse at any time. Like the violent eruption of a volcano, and the intensity of an earthquake.
"What — — is this?"
Everyone fled in all directions, shrieking in fear.

Song Gudu's hands were clasping Song Chenxi's little hand, constantly transferring the warm qi of his body into his granddaughter's body, to help her expel the cold poison in her body and dissolve the cold air that wrapped around her body.
The 'Great Illumination' that Song Gudu cultivated was a powerful and overbearing fire qi, which should have been the nemesis of the cold poison. Perhaps the heavens favoured the Song clan too much, so all the suffering was placed on Song Chenxi alone. The cold poison was extremely cunning, and even the 'Great Illumination' could not completely expel it.
Song Gudu could only use the 'Great Illumination' to set up a small house in Song Chenxi's body, wrapping the cold air in it, and not letting it spread to the meridians and lungs.
Most of the time, as long as the small house was not broken, Song Chenxi's body would be fine.
However, if the small house was not broken by Xiaoxin, Song Chenxi's physical condition would be very bad.
Unexpectedly, this time the cold poison in Song Chenxi's body was affected by the nameless poison. When the small house was broken, the cold air instantly attacked her heart and lungs. Song Chenxi was originally weak, and now she was even more vulnerable. If there was no peerless expert like Song Gudu to save her, she most likely would have died by now.
Song Gudu stubbornly fought against the cold poison of heaven, trying to expel it from Song Chenxi's internal organs. He tried again and again, but failed again and again.
What was even more abominable was the nameless poison. Although it was only a thin and small poisonous gas, but it was as cunning as a fish, and did not come into contact with Song Gudu's' Great Illumination '.
That was the aura of extreme cold. When it sensed the heat from the Great Light Spell, it immediately fled without any intention of resisting.
If Song Gudu wanted to expel the cold air and lock them back into the house, he must first remove the tiny poisonous gas. This was because if the Nameless Poison was not dealt with, it would break through the cage and release the Heavenly Frigid Qi when it was trapped in the small house.
He was simply a shameless hooligan.
Song Gudu's cultivation base was unfathomable, and was known as a half-immortal cultivator. However, at this time he was also in a sorry state because of the two gases. He desperately released the power of light in his body, causing his face to rapidly age, his eyes to dim, and even the grey on his head began to turn white. Pure white like snow.
At this critical moment of life and death, the old housekeeper, who was standing next to him, listened and said in a low voice, "He's here."
