Chapter 132: Marrying Out and Selling Out
"Wow—"
The red whirlwinds radiate downwards, spreading in all directions, and the coldness is as if it is late autumn.
Looking at the peak, the plants and trees sway, and the red clouds connect to the sky.
"The flower fools people."
Zhao Chenghe squinted his eyes and looked at the redness that was rustling down the sky. The bleak red rain could not wet his and Ye Ku's clothes. Every time he went nearby, he would be unveiled by an invisible force.
Unexpectedly, the old master took a step back, gave up his position, and gave Ye Ku a wink, signaling him to push him up.
On one hand, there was a beautiful woman with an angry and red face and a gloomy face. On the other hand, Zhao Chenghe was constantly encouraging him. Ye Ku felt a burst of tears. He thought that it was said that women were as big as wolves and forty as tigers. Senior, you can twitch the tigress and let go of your hand if you don’t care.
"Sir, please calm down and be calm. I am a little nervous. I am Ye Ku, my father is indeed the King of Northern King of Gu Xia, but I really don't remember when I had a misunderstanding with your Xia family." Ye Ku stepped forward in a slutty red, and said directly.
"I thought you were going to hide behind that old Taoist priest for the rest of your life." The woman in the Xia family's voice was low, and Zhou Tian's redness suddenly condensed. The rain stopped and the wind stopped. The sound of the wind was about to pierce Ye Ku's eardrums!
The old woman couldn't see the depth of Zhao Chenghe and did not dare to fight him. Seeing that the old master took a step back, she thought that the old Taoist who lived in seclusion in Wanghe had tried his best to save face and weighed the pros and cons, but she did not dare to be enemies with the Xia family and no longer protected Ye Ku.
The current emperor and empress are surnamed Xia. Not to mention the old Taoist who lives in seclusion on the ancient Lingcan Peak, even the four veins of the ancient times are united and dare not give them no gifts.
A huge crisis suddenly suppressed, and the sky was filled with red rain, and the mountains were about to come. At that moment, Ye Ku felt cold all over his body, and thousands of blood-colored arrows were like a bunch of rain, covering the sky and the murderous intent was like a rainbow.
"Bang"
Zhao Chenghe, who was standing not far behind Ye Ku, sneered, and swept the dust, and an unparalleled aura rolled out, colliding with an inexplicable thing in front of Ye Ku, and just one touch broke all the aura that the middle-aged woman had crushed.
The old Taoist priest was determined to relieve the situation, and put the whisk on his arm again, holding the women of the Xia family with harmless smiles.
Ye Ku suddenly came back to his senses and shivered with excitement. He didn't expect that the old woman in the Xia family was so narrow-minded, bullying the weak and afraid of the strong, and did not dare to ask Zhao Chenghe for trouble, but he exuded all his anger on him.
The pressure of that aura would not really hurt him, but it was inevitable that he would be embarrassed. He looked at Zhao Tianshi to express his gratitude. When he turned around, Ye Ku was not as kind as before.
The middle-aged woman was silent on her face, but she was really shocked by Zhao Chenghe's move. In addition to being angry in her heart, she actually wanted to shock Ye Ku and let the boy know that the sky was high and the earth was thick, but she didn't expect that she would have more concerns in her heart.
He didn't care much about Ye Ku's expression of sunshine. The beautiful lady of the Xia family moved her steps slightly, and she lowered Pingye and said lightly: "Why do you have to pretend to be stupid? You two of you have been inseparable during this period, but it's just a temporary solution. The prince must not think too much."
Ye Ku actually didn't know why this graceful woman came. She just deliberately refused to mention the topic. What surprised him was that Zhao Cheng and Zhao Tianshi seemed to have a prejudice against the Xia family and did not look down on the current queen's family.
The middle-aged woman’s words meant to remind Ye Ku not to have any inappropriate thoughts about Shangguan Xuanqing. Walking with you was just a whim, but the girl was just a playful and unwilling to return home for a while. You must not take it seriously.
Ye Ku curled his lips secretly. The things he experienced with Xuan Qing could not be erased in just one sentence. Not to mention sharing the joys and sorrows together, even the two of them have been born and died one after another. It is really ridiculous to say things that deceive themselves here.
Since the beginning of this marriage, the Xia family has come out and strongly opposed it. Shangguan Xuanqing is the legitimate emperor and empress. This blood relationship has given them an excuse to speak on this matter. It is unknown whether the queen behind this or someone else in the Xia family is planning it. Ye Ku is not sure.
Shangguan Xuanqing also told him about this matter intentionally or unintentionally. Ye Ku felt very surprised at the time, what was the Xia family crazy about, why did he like a marriage so much?
There is also a brother above Xuanqing. If he wants to fight for power and profit, he should have put more effort into the male who may be qualified to inherit the throne. However, the Xia family did the opposite, only grabbed Xuanqing and refused to let go, but instead he was not very concerned about the prince who was born in the Xia Dynasty.
Ye Ku spoke unkindly: "Oh——, it turns out that senior is talking about Xuanqing, but if I remember correctly, Xuanqing should be the surname Shangguan. What does this have to do with your Xia family?"
The meaning of the words, this marriage has been agreed by Emperor Xia. No matter how your Xia family is, it will be better than the sky, but your Xia family is just relying on the breath of the Shangguan Emperor's clan. Now it has power, but it is in turn pointing to the Emperor's family affairs. Isn't it a rebellious and ungrateful person?
The middle-aged woman's face was stagnant, and a smile came out from the corner of her mouth. She was about to speak, but she heard Zhao Chenghe laughing. In a blink of an eye, this senior who was hard to guess was hiding his belly and slapping his legs, and was overwhelmed.
"Okay, okay, okay," the three good words come from the heart. Zhao Chenghe seems to be extremely happy. "Say, it's good, it's good! The Xia family is famous for selling their daughters. Often, it is said that the water splashed by the married daughters is really different."
"you!"
The beautiful woman in the Xia family suddenly changed her expression. There was no anger in her eyes when she looked at Zhao Chenghe, but she was mostly frightened, as if a scabbed scar was torn apart, and the bloody wound was revealed.
Everyone feels pain first, and then they will judge the situation and face the person who has uncovered the scars.
The middle-aged woman knew that she was definitely not the match of the old Taoist priest, but this sentence was even more unexpected to her. She couldn't believe it in her heart and said in a trembling voice: "How could you know?"
The waves arose in her heart, the soul surging, the redness of the sky suddenly became unstable, the redness faded away
Ye Ku looked clearly on the side. Zhao Chenghe seemed to be laughing loudly, but the laughter was in his ears. The white gray green Taoist robe flew up and down with him hiding his belly and slapped his legs. The red color in the fields was not collected. Could it be that he was really full of joy.
"Fourth Aunt"
A figure that covered half of his face appeared at the end of the road, and the starry sea passed by. In a blink of an eye, Shangguan Xuanqing came to the scene and happened to see the middle-aged woman staggering for several steps and exclaiming in surprise.
The redness faded, and the peak was filled with a clear and bright scene. The noise just now was too loud, and this remote and short mountain had attracted the attention of many people.
Seeing the situation, Zhao Chenghe waved the whisk twice, and with one wave, he sent the seven people out of Wanghe. With another wave, he changed the world and brought Ye Ku and his men into a wooden house.
The wife of the Xia family had not yet been called back to her senses by Xuan Qing, and she did not resist for a moment.
The wooden house in the mountains should be Zhao Chenghe's residence. The house is like a human being, and it is not very particular. I think it is because the old master of the God who pillows and stars and drinks dew every day and does not cover the house. He hasn't come back for a long time. The house is filled with dust, spider webs hanging on the corners, and rotten wood creaking. For a moment, he couldn't find a place to stay.
Even with Zhao Chenghe's unconventional nature, he frowned when he saw the dust in the room. He pinched his hand and printed a talisman into a pattern in the void. He closed his fingers, and the talisman suddenly divided into white and fat dolls. He was born and fell around Zhao Tianshi and circled him inside and out.
These fat white dolls have white lotus-like arms, but their bodies and heads look like ginseng. They have a fork at the end and make two small feet, which is very cute.
Suddenly there were more than a dozen ginseng dolls in the room, all of them were as white as jade and shining. These fat white dolls were all well-behaved and did not cry or make a fuss. However, due to the narrow room, the room suddenly became a little crowded.
"Go all and clean the house," Zhao Chenghe swept the heads of more than a dozen babies one by one with a whisk. Perhaps because of his face, he ordered: "Just be as clean as before." He turned to Ye Ku and the others and said: "First go to the yard outside, and it will be fine for a while."
A personal ginseng doll suddenly started to work hard, and when Zhao Chenghe finished speaking, he disappeared. He must have been the first to leave the wooden house.
"Xuanqing, come to Aunt Ping." The middle-aged woman came to her senses at this time. When she saw Shangguan Xuanqing's face half-covered, she didn't think about it. She smiled and wanted to reach out to hold her next to her, but Shangguan Xuanqing deliberately or unintentionally avoided it.
"Auntie Four, this is not a place to talk, we're waiting for you outside." Shangguan Xuanqing smiled brightly at the middle-aged woman, took Ye Ku's hand openly, and went out by himself.
There was a chuckling inside the room, and the fat ginseng boy transformed from the talisman was busy.
Seeing the two of them in this way, a trace of gloom flashed in the middle-aged woman's eyes, but she turned and felt a little lost, and she sighed quietly.
At this time, a fat white ginseng doll was accidentally tripped by her clothes while cleaning, and fell to the ground with her butt, and her little arm like a lotus node was stroking her round head, like a ignorant and unknown child.
The middle-aged beautiful woman chuckled, pulled the clothes that were pressed under the butt by the ginseng boy, and walked out of the dusty wooden house.
Ye Ku and Shangguan Xuanqing went outside first, and Xuanqing sent a voice transmission: "This is my fourth aunt Xia Luping, don't worry, she won't be too difficult for you with me."
The unsightly wooden house surrounded an area with bamboo fences. I guess this is the "yard" that Zhao Chenghe mentioned. There is a stone table in the simple courtyard with a stool beside the table. The old Taoist priest was sitting leisurely on the stone bench, his fingers were pulling on the table regularly, and he was humming an unknown little song in his mouth.
The whisk was quietly placed aside by him, and both ends rolled outside the stone table and almost fell down.
Ye Ku and his wife walked to the stone table and were about to reach out to push the whisk back, but Zhao Chenghe stopped it. After getting closer, he saw clearly that Zhao Tianshi was closing his eyes and leisurely. He pointed to the stone bench beside him and signaled the two to sit down.
Xia Luping came out of the wooden house with a calm expression and could not tell her happiness or anger. After all, she was Shangguan Xuanqing's elder. Although the couple's aunt and niece were not very friendly, they might not be as frightened as the sea. When Ye Ku saw her coming, he immediately wanted to get up and give up his seat. It was nothing else. I wonder if it was a coincidence that there were only three stone benches beside the stone table.
He was about to get up, but he felt a huge force on his shoulder, as if he was pressing a hill. In a blink of an eye, the whisk was already on his shoulder at some point.
Shangguan Xuanqing was the same. The two exchanged gazes and looked at Zhao Chenghe at the same time.
