In the Reception Room, everyone was chatting absent-mindedly when Ye Xiaotian walked in. Instantly, the Reception Room became deathly silent, and numerous pairs of eyes looked towards him in unison. Ye Xiaotian walked in as if nothing had happened. He lifted his robe and sat down next to Old Xia, Old Xia, and Old Xia. He smiled and said, "Uh …"
Before he could say anything, his sister-in-law, Cai Ni, kicked Ge Long lightly. Ge Long immediately stared and asked, "Did you really kill her?"
Ye Xiaotian choked and said embarrassedly, "I didn't!"
"Pfft!" Tian Miaowen, Zhan Ning 'er, Yu Junting and Cai Ni who were looking at him intently, all made a' pfft 'sound at the same time and turned their heads away in unison.
Ye Xiaotian suddenly felt hot all over and his forehead was itchy as though there was sweat dripping down. His eyes turned and only Yingying didn't 'pfft' at him. Instead, she opened her big black eyes and looked at him adorably. He reckoned that she didn't even understand what was going on.
Ye Xiaotian immediately expressed his loyalty, "This demoness is full of tricks. I'm afraid if I kill her, I won't be able to clear my name even if I jump into the Yellow River! However, I won't let her off easily. I've already instructed to keep a tight watch on her. She's not allowed to be free. Also … she's not allowed to have meat for her three meals a day! "
At this point, even the broad-minded Tian Miaowen couldn't help but roll her eyes, "Meat? I think she doesn't want to eat it! Isn't she afraid that her body will lose its shape? "
Yu Junting said sourly, "Even if she doesn't eat it, her body will lose its shape after a few months."
Yingying asked curiously, "Why will she lose her shape?"
Ye Xiaotian quickly interrupted, "Yingying, it's our wedding day three days later."
Yingying's pretty face blushed and she immediately felt a little shy. She lowered her head slightly and said shyly, "En …"
Zhan Ning'er couldn't help but glare at him. Ye Xiaotian had said that he would marry both of them on the same day. Why did he only mention it to Yingying?
Yu Junting's eyes darted around. She knew that Ye Xiaotian was trying to change the topic and divide the alliance. Her heart was as clear as a mirror, but … she wouldn't point it out. Being jealous was also a kind of flirtatious feeling, but she had to control it well, otherwise, she would be disliked.
Ye Xiaotian held Yingying's hand and said, "Why don't we discuss the marriage in three days?"
Yingying said happily, "Sure!"
Master Xia and Father Xia watched helplessly as their baby was cheated by such a clumsy and obvious scheme. But looking at her happy face, they couldn't bear to expose her. They could only comfort themselves, "Being cheated for a while is called cheating, but being cheated for a lifetime, is that still called cheating?"
Ye Xiaotian held the little white flower Yingying's hand and walked out. Zhan Ning'er looked at Tian Miaowen like a thief and then looked at Yu Junting. Then she slipped out like a yellow croaker. It was as if she had learned the Invisibility Spell and the people in the room couldn't see her at all.
Tian Miaowen smiled bitterly. Ye Xiaotian's ability to make people love and hate him … She could only smile bitterly and cough. She said to Master Xia and Father Xia, "Seniors, speaking of Yingying's marriage in three days …"
Master Xia said reservedly, "Hmm … We originally came here to lure Yang Yinglong. As for the marriage, although the wedding date has been set, we came in a hurry and didn't make any preparations. In this old man's opinion … "
"Aiya, oh no! She didn't even bring a dowry this time! What should we do? " Xia Yingying's exclamation suddenly came from outside the room. Father Xia couldn't help but cover his face. He couldn't face anyone with his old face anymore. How did he give birth to such a clown!
Then he heard Ye Xiaotian say, "It's alright. Your grandfather and father love you so much. You can't just refuse the dowry, can you? It's fine even if it's a few days late. "
Yingying said happily, "That's right! As long as I'm here, it's fine. As long as it doesn't delay the wedding! "
Master Xia also covered his face. With such a grandson, what more could he ask for?
At this time, they heard Zhan Ning 'er's voice say, "The Zhan Family Fort isn't far from here. As for the dowry, we can still make it in time."
Master Xia and Father Xia were comforted. It turned out that their daughter wasn't the only one who was in a rush to get married. Their faces looked much better now. Tian Miaowen and Yu Junting's faces twitched. They couldn't laugh out loud in front of the two elders. It was hard for them to hold it in.
… …
A strong horse galloped madly along the winding mountain path. The rider on the horse lashed out with his whip like rain, desperately lashing the horse with all his might. Finally, the horse let out a long neigh and fell to the ground. The rider was agile. He reached out and pressed his palm against the horse's back. Just as the horse fell to the ground, he leaped forward and landed firmly on the ground.
She turned her head to look. There was no one on the winding mountain path. The pursuers hadn't caught up yet. She couldn't help but feel relieved. She looked up at the mountain path in front of her. She gritted her teeth and entered the dense forest.
This was Zuo Yixuan. Tian Xiufeng had brought Ye Xiaotian up the mountain. Tian Binfei's legs were crippled, making him too obvious a target. Even if he had prosthetics, it would be easy for others to see through him. Thus, they had temporarily hidden at the foot of the mountain, under her protection.
But how could she have imagined that Tian Binfei's personal bodyguards would suddenly attack her people? Six of her subordinates had died tragically. Fortunately, she was unusually alert and managed to avoid a fatal blow.
She didn't even have time to ask, "Why?" before she set off on the road to escape. Along the way, the situation was vaguely similar to the last time. The only difference was that last time, she escaped deep into the mountains with Tian Binfei to hide, but this time, she was being pursued by Tian Binfei. Nothing could surpass the vicissitudes of the world.
But she believed that she had completely shaken off her pursuers. To her, as a female death warrior, she had always been on the edge of death. She also had an unusual intuition towards death. She believed that she had really escaped.
… …
"Is it about time?"
At the foot of the mountain, the pursuers had caught up. Their horses were drenched in sweat. The rider on the horse lovingly stroked his beloved horse's neck and said to the others. One of them raised his head to look at the spiraling mountain path. The sun shone on his face, revealing his strong and sturdy curves. It was Dang Yanming.
Dang Yanming said, "It's about time. It's good to let her think that we're serious. Let's go back!"
Dang Yanming circled the horse and let it slowly walk back. Zuo Yixuan was a fish that they had deliberately let slip through the net. Otherwise, there was no way she could have escaped alone. They needed someone to report to Bozhou. As for the details of the incident, they believed that Yang Yinglong would soon find out from the mouths of the tribe leaders who attended the meeting in Bozhou. At that time, they would also know more news!
… …
A hundred years of cultivation, crossing the same boat, a thousand years of cultivation, sleeping together.
Ye Xiaotian, Xia Yingying and Zhan Ning'er must have known each other and loved each other a thousand years ago.
Regarding this topic, after the three of them seriously discussed the issue of marriage and dowry, they specifically discussed it.
What was a thousand years ago? The last years of the Sui Dynasty! Thus, after the old vinegar Yu Junting and the green lemon Tian Miaowen joined the discussion, they finally confirmed the question of "how did Ye Xiaotian change?"
Everyone agreed: Ye Xiaotian was the dissolute and immoral Emperor Yang of Sui, Yang Guang, who committed suicide a thousand years ago!
Sui Shu, Southern History and other historical books clearly recorded that Yang Guang had liked five women: Empress Xiao, Lady Cui, Chen Zhao, Lady Xuanhua, and Lady Rong Hua. Among them, he 'doted' on Empress Xiao, 'loved' on Lady Cui, 'loved' on Chen Zhao, and couldn't forget the unparalleled beauty of Lady Xuanhua.
Thus, they automatically took their seats. Tian Miaowen was Empress Xiao, Xia Yingying was Lady Xuanhua, Zhan Ning'er was Lady Cui, Yu Junting was Chen Zhao, and Duo Ni was Lady Rong Hua. Then … then the five women began to deeply reminisce about their past lives.
Ye Xiaotian, who had originally planned to use his horoscope fortune-telling to prevent these women from continuing to pursue him, found that they had automatically assumed the identity of the beloved concubines of Emperor Yang of Sui and were relishing in talking about their past palace fights. Thus, he wisely shut his mouth and quietly slipped away while they were in full swing.
Three days later, the dissolute "Emperor Yang of Sui" was going to marry "Lady Xuanhua" and "Lady Cui". On the first day, the dowry of the Zhan Family Fort was continuously sent up the mountain. Whether it was the boxes or cages, they were all tied with red silk, from the foot of the mountain to the top, like a long winding red dragon.
Old Master Xia sent Old Master Xia to personally guard the mountain pass and count the dowry of the Zhan Family. Old Master Xia said, "My Xia Family has more than a hundred boys in this generation, but there is only one girl. No matter what, we can't let her be wronged. Go and count for me, no matter how much the Zhan Family dowry, our Xia Family will double! "
Thinking back to when Cao Ruixi got married in Shi Qian's manor, it was a pool of wine and a forest of flesh, awe-inspiring. The rice wine was poured into the stone trough that extended from the mountain to the foot of the mountain, flowing like spring water. Thousands of cows, goats, and pigs were used up. The scale was even greater than what was used up for the Emperor's wedding.
Now that Officer Ye of Crouching Bull Ridge was getting married, although he was not marrying the Palm Seal Lady, it was the first time he was holding a wedding. Moreover, the second and third wives were not much lower than the Palm Seal Lady's status, so how could Crouching Bull Ridge not organize it without restraint?
This was a show of affection, and also a display of strength. You could not avoid it even if you wanted to. And this matter was obviously handed over to the tycoon who had never shown himself to be in charge. The reason why the tycoon did not show himself was partly because he was not good at fighting and killing, and partly because he was busy managing this matter.
Even though the storm had yet to settle, Crouching Bull Ridge still organized the wedding in a manner of great victory and celebration. This was a celebration to announce the chieftain's return, a celebration for the chieftain's wedding, and a celebration for the chieftain's scheme against Yang Tianwang.
Although Ye Xiaotian had done so many great things in the past, none of his opponents could rival an important figure like Yang Tianwang. His victory this time was not so clear, but he had tricked Yang Yinglong and even captured Yang Yinglong's third wife. Even the Shuixi's An clan and the Shuidong's Song clan could not achieve something like this.
Apart from a few chieftains who had close ties with the Yang clan of Bozhou, most of the chieftains who had attended the wedding were sincerely convinced by Ye Xiaotian now. In this land, they only recognized fists and wits. Whoever had the bigger fists and was vicious enough could win their respect.
Ye Xiaotian had achieved this, so not only had he won their respect, but everyone in the entire Crouching Bull Ridge was proud of him as well. The morale of the Crouching Bull Ridge skyrocketed, and their unity reached an unprecedented level. Ye Xiaotian's wedding began in such an atmosphere.
And this was only the beginning …
