Chapter 363 – The Rhythm of Forced Marriage
Shortly after Xia Qing Yue left, the room was pushed open again, Xiao Ling Shi stepped in with hurried footsteps, and behind her, followed by Xiao Lie who had the same eager look.
“Xiao Che, you’re awake!” Xiao Lingshi almost swooped over, “How do you feel now? Is there anywhere uncomfortable?”
Yun Che had already changed his clothes, and he directly jumped off the bed, saying with a relaxed face, “Don’t worry, I’m not in the least bit fine. It’s not like I have any serious injuries on my body, I’m just a little off my feet, and after sleeping for two days, I’m already rested.”
Yun Che’s movement of leaping down was smooth and swift, and his face was also without any abnormality, Xiao Ling Shi immediately let out a big sigh of relief, Xiao Lie walked over and smiled, “It’s good that you’re fine, don’t ever try to be strong just to comfort us.”
Yun Che patted his chest and said confidently, “Grandpa is completely at ease, when I was in the Cang Fire Region, you have witnessed my body’s ability to recover with your own eyes……. During this period of time, are you still accustomed to living here?”
Xiao Lie smiled faintly and said despondently, “I’ve had a good time here, being able to make a trip to the Imperial City used to be my lifelong wish. I did not expect that I not only arrived in the Imperial City, but also entered the Imperial Palace, the Emperor also personally received, treated as the guest of honor …… which in the past, really did not dare to dream.”
For Xiao Lie’s arrival, Cang Wan Yu not only personally greeted, personally received, and everything personally cared for, as a country’s emperor, but his etiquette, and even respect, even three meals a day, he personally accompanied, eaten at the state banquet, residence adjacent to the emperor’s bedchamber …… Xiao Lie of course understands that he will be treated so well by an emperor, all because of the Yun Che. Especially in these two days, after Yun Che and Xia Qingyue combined their efforts to defeat Ling Tian Reverse, Cang Wan Gul was more courteous and respectful to him than ever before, and in the palace, from the eunuchs and guards down, to the imperial courtiers, they were all respectful to him, even revealing fawning postures.
Because he was Yun Che’s grandfather.
All of this was truly like a dream.
“If you like it here, how about Grandpa and Little Auntie stay in the Imperial City from now on?” Yun Che immediately proposed, “If Grandpa doesn’t want to, going to Crescent Moon City is also not bad, I have already greeted Senior Brother Sikong of the Crescent Moon Xuan Mansion not too long ago, and Sikong Han will definitely be happy to see Grandpa as well. It’s not too far from Liuyun City, so if grandpa is homesick, he can go back at any time.”
Yun Che’s reputation had already been rising like the sun, and now that he had defeated Ling Tian Reverse, he had even vaguely become the number one person in Cangfeng, and as his grandfather, Xiao Lie knew that no matter where he wanted to go, the people where he was would hate it if they couldn’t kneel down to welcome him for 800 miles. Xiao Lie smiled and said, “Ling Shi likes this place very much, I’ve had a very pleasant few days, and I don’t want to leave for the time being, what happens in the future, let’s talk about it later.”
“Hahahahaha!”
A majestic and cheerful laughter came from outside: “I have been having a good conversation with Buddy Xiao these days, if Buddy Xiao wants to leave, I am ten thousand times reluctant to part with him.”
Amidst the laughter, Cang Wangui, dressed in a gold-encrusted dragon robe, walked in side by side with Cang Yue, and behind him, Dongfang Huo followed three paces away, his eyes looking towards Yun Che for the first time.
Cang Wangu’s words caused Cang Yue to blankly glance at him and angrily said, “Father, Grandpa Xiao is Master Yun’s grandfather, wouldn’t you be messing up the seniority by referring to …… him on an equal footing like this.”
“This …… this cannot be allowed.” Xiao Lie was instantly startled and hastily waved his hand, “If Your Majesty addresses me like this, it would be a real discount.”
Cang Yue instantly guffawed, dragging her gorgeous phoenix dress curling forward, softly saying, “Senior Yun, you’ve only just woken up, your body must still be very weak, it’s better to go back to bed and rest.”
“No need.” Yun Che punched his chest, “I know my own body, I’m definitely not as delicate as Senior Sister thinks.”
“Haha.” Cang Wan Gully let out a laugh, “Someone who can defeat even the Sword Saint seniors, I, however, am not worried at all. Yue’er you also don’t need to worry too much ……You have been almost sleepless and teared up for the past two days, and you have to come to visit every half hour, but it’s made Father’s heart ache.”
“Father ……” In front of so many people, Cang Wan Yu was undoubtedly revealing her heart without any concealment, she let out a wail and lowered her head, not daring to look at anyone’s gaze, a gesture that made both Cang Wan Yu and Dongfang Huo unable to hold back their laughter.
Yun Che’s heart warmed as he smiled lightly, then suddenly raised his head and asked Cang Wan Gu, “Your Majesty, Dongfang Mansion Master, during the past two days that I was unconscious, were there any outsiders in the palace who intruded?”
Dongfang Hugh shook his head without hesitation, “I was also originally worried that someone would take advantage of your coma and want to lay hands on you, so I have been on guard, but it seems that I was overly concerned, the winds and waves of the palace have been calm these past two days, there have not been any intruders. Or perhaps, it’s because Fairy Xia has remained in the palace all this time, and even though some people have evil intentions, they are afraid of Fairy Xia, and thus don’t have the guts to make a move.”
As Yun Che’s reputation grew stronger and stronger, the events about him back then were also known by more and more people and gradually circulated. Among them, it also naturally included the feud with Xiao Mad Cloud of the Xiao Sect three years ago. In the past two days that Yun Che was unconscious, what Dongfang Huo was defending against was also the Xiao Sect.
“However, there are quite a few who have brought heavy gifts to visit you.” Cang Wan Gully said smilingly, “In total, there are thousands of large and small clans or families, sending countless spiritual pills and treasures, which are already piling up like mountains, and a huge palace almost can’t find a place to store them. As the Cang Feng Emperor, I have never seen such a grandiose scene in all my years on the throne, hahahaha.”
“Among them, Xiao Sect’s gifts are the most expensive.” Cang Yue slowly said, “They sent the Purple Vein Heavenly Crystal, Purple Jade Golden Scale Cream, Red Eagle Xuan Blood, all of which are the most precious treasures that are hard to find in ten thousand gold, and there are also a whole thirty pounds of Purple Crystal with twenty pounds of White Xuan Jade, which is even more than what the Imperial Palace has accumulated in the past few decades, and on top of that ……” Cang Yue Suddenly ambiguous smile: “There are three less than double ten years of age, the national color of the great beauty oh.”
“What …… what great beauties!!!” Upon hearing this, Xiao Ling Shi tutted her lips, stomped her foot, and said indignantly, “It’s clearly three ugly monsters, a hundred times ten thousand times worse than Princess Sister and me! Xiao Che won’t even look at them! Right Little Che?”
“Uh-huh uh-huh!” Yun Che immediately nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, and said with a straight face, “Those mortal girls, how can they be compared to my Little Aunt and Senior Sister! I promise not to even look at them, how did they come, let them how to go back …… Oh, if Little Auntie is willing, it will be given to Little Auntie as a maid of honor.”
“Hee hee, I don’t want it.” Xiao Lingshi said with a smile.
“Xiao Sect’s heavy gift was sent by Grand Elder Xiao Bo Yun personally, Xiao Bo Yun has not left yet, claiming that he wants to meet with you when you wake up. Are you interested in having a meeting with him?” Cang Wan Gully said, his expression slightly complicated. In the past, if the elder level figures of the four great sects entered the imperial palace, each of them was high and mighty, even he, the emperor, never put it in his eyes, and he still had the entire time to treat them with courtesy, not only any offense. And this time, as Xiao Zong great elder Xiao Bo Yun into the palace is respectful, that is called a modest and polite, amiable. The huge difference, let Cang Wan Gully can not not heart melancholy …… this world, after all, is to power as the honor. Only absolute power can truly deter the four directions. The Cang Feng Royal Family’s seemingly nationwide regime that covers the entire country is simply no deterrent to speak of in front of absolute power.
“In this way ah ……” Yun Che nodded his chin and smiled, “See, of course. Grand Elder Xiao Zong has come from thousands of miles away with a heavy gift, how could I be so kind as to let him just leave for nothing.”
“Good.” Cang Wan Gully nodded his head indifferently, “I also know a little about the grudge between you and Xiao Zong. As for how it should be dealt with, that will depend on your own wishes …… Well, oh, ahem ……”
As a generation of emperors, Cang Wan Gully suddenly began to want to speak, squirming for a while, and Yun Che moved the corners of his mouth, asking somewhat cautiously, “Is there anything that Your Majesty would like to command Yun Che?”
“Commanding doesn’t count, it’s …… just …… coughing ……” Cang Wan Gully cleared his throat, his speech finally Smoothly, he set his face straight and looked at Yun Che with a burning gaze, “Yun Che, this life of mine, you saved it. If it wasn’t for you, not only would I have died a long time ago, but even how I died is unclear. Now that I have been reborn because of you, although the royal family’s internal unrest has not yet settled, I am already grateful to the heavens, and there is nothing more to be unsatisfied with, just …… just that I have always had a matter of the heart that I have been hanging on to day and night that I can’t let go of.”
“The matter of the heart that Your Majesty is referring to is ……,” Yun Che instantly had a premonition.
Cang Wan Gulch took a step forward, pulled Cang Yue, and said with a face full of doting and longing, “Yue’er is my only daughter, in these years, I have been backstabbed by traitors and rebellious sons, and only Yue’er accompanied me, toiling for me, suffering from all the misery, and even more so, I have sought out you, the nobleman, to save the fate of my father and daughter. I am now the biggest wish, is that the month can find her happy home …… unconsciously, the month has been twenty one, Cangfeng royal family of the millennium, more than twenty years of age is still not married to the princess less than phoenix hairs, as a father, I can not eat these years, can not sleep at night, and often grief from the heart, to tears, dreaming hope to be able to earlier for the Moon to find her husband, if you can, let me reduce life thirty years are willing, if the moon this year can not be married out, I’m sorry for this life of the moon, after death, but also have no face to see her mother consort …….”
Cang wan gully while saying, already is the circle of the eyes red, look at the tears are about to fall.
Cang Wan Gully a bunch of words down, Yun Che’s face is already a twitch, and his next words, is more so that he can’t resist on the spot ……
“I can see that Yue’er is not false to other men, but is only caring and devoted to you. If you are the same to the moon is interested in, that naturally the best, if the moon can marry you as a wife, I even if the immediate death is also a thousand comfort. If you have no intention of the month …… alas, this kind of thing, but also naturally can not request, the poor moon’s heart like the bright moon, but can only be a lifetime of misery and no support, I am sorry for her ah …….”
[Tomorrow is the college entrance examination. Unconsciously, from my side of the college entrance examination, has passed eleven years …… eleven years …… eleven years ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!
