Chapter 232: A match made in heaven, in ecstasy
The moonlight is so beautiful tonight! Liuli raised her head and glanced several times, only to find that the moonlight was so perfect and bright that it was incredible. It wasn't until someone in front of her called out crisply, "Mrs. Chang Shi," that she came to her senses. She saw Xiao Fu, who was guarding the yard, rushing up to salute her. Thinking of the greeting that was much higher than usual, she couldn't help but laugh, "No need to be polite."
Xiaotan walked to the door and raised the curtain. The two people in the hall turned around together. Liu Ruyue's eyes were obviously red and swollen, but there was a strange peace and softness in her expression. Fang Lie's change was even greater, and between his eyebrows It was stretched and bright, and the previous wildness and sharpness seemed to have melted away without a trace. Liuli looked at the two people standing side by side with some surprise. One was wearing a Hu robe and the other was wearing a Tang shirt. One was dark, thin and rugged, and the other was petite and sweet. However, there was an indescribable sense of harmony, as if they had stood side by side like this for a long time. years, and will continue to do so.
Pei Xingjian also paused, then folded his hands and said with a smile, "Congratulations!"
Liu Ruyue and Fang Lie looked at each other, laughed, and returned the gift generously. Fang Lie smiled and said, "I'm afraid this matter will take a long time."
Pei Xingjian smiled and nodded, "The beauty of adulthood is a blessing."
Fang Lie was not polite, "Pei Changshi, Ah Yue and I have already agreed. I will stay for a few days. After the wedding is held in Xizhou, I will take Ah Yue back. However, Ah Yue may sometimes go back to Xizhou to stay temporarily. , I hope Madam will take care of you."
Pei Xingjian showed a little surprise on his face, but finally nodded, "It's easy to talk about Xizhou, but it's just the general's side..."
Fang Lie raised his eyebrows and smiled indifferently and said, "It doesn't matter, the general looks serious, but his temper is actually the most generous. I have also reported that I have an unmarried wife in Chang'an. The general will definitely not blame him if he finds out about this. "
Pei Xingjian muttered, "That's good. It's getting late now. Let's go back to the Protector's Mansion first. I'll introduce someone to you privately later. I'm afraid I can't hide your affairs from him." Seeing Fang Lie and Liu There was a hint of surprise and worry on Ruyue's face, and she smiled quickly and said, "It doesn't matter, I just wanted to inform him."
Liu Ruyue said hesitantly, "Is it Prince Qu?"
Pei Xingjian smiled and said "Yes", but Fang Lie was a little surprised, "Is he the prince who shaved his face?"
Liuli couldn't help but burst into laughter. Liu Ruyue saw that Pei Xingjian and Liuli looked very relaxed. Thinking of what they had seen and heard in the past few months, her heart calmed down. She smiled and said to Fang Lie, "Let's talk about this." It’s a long story, and I’ll tell you slowly in the future. This prince is beyond recognition. Fortunately, it’s no longer difficult for Chang Shi. Since Chang Shi is confident, he will definitely not be wrong.”
Fang Lie thought for a while, shook his head, smiled, and whispered, "Ah Yue, I'll go with Chang Shi first."
Liu Ruyue nodded with soft eyes, "I'll wait for you."
That night, Pei Xingjian came back after the third watch. He smelled of alcohol. The kitchen had already prepared sobering soup. Liuli hurriedly asked someone to bring it to her. She also helped him change clothes and wipe his face. Pei Xingjian held down her hand. , "I'll do it myself, don't be too busy, sit down and rest first." While wiping his face, he asked again, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Liu Li smiled and said, "I chatted with Liu Ajian for a while and couldn't sleep for a while. Is Mr. Fang back with you?"
Pei Xingjian smiled and said, "That's natural. I placed him in the outer courtyard. If he hadn't told General Mishe that he wanted to stay in Xizhou to get married, I'm afraid he wouldn't have drunk until this time."
Liuli couldn't help but sigh, "These two people are really brave."
Pei Xingjian also sighed, "Indeed, Brother Fang has a strong temperament, and Liu Ajian is also mentally strong. Even if lovers eventually get married, they will still have a difficult time in the future."
Liuli's heart moved and he asked hesitantly, "Really? I also asked Liu Ajian today. Mr. Fang is currently quite far away from Xizhou. Why did Mr. Fang say that she might go back to Xizhou to stay for a while in the future? Liu Ajian He didn’t answer me, just smiled and changed the subject…”
Pei Xingjian was drinking the sobering soup. He didn't say anything for a while. After drinking, he sat down next to Liuli, reached out and pulled her into his arms, and whispered, "Have you ever heard of the Turks talking to each other during the couple's ceremony?" Tang is different?"
Liuli originally knew that the female musicians in the studio liked to become brothers and share husbands, which was called the "Turkic method". She had heard it mentioned once or twice in Xizhou for more than a year. At this time, these rumors came together Welling up in my heart, I couldn't help but be shocked, "Could it be possible..."
Pei Xingjian hurriedly smiled and said, "The so-called system of sharing wives is not something that Turkic nobles do in this world. It is usually just a transfer of houses. After the elder dies, the younger brother has his wife, his wife and his wife step-mother. Brother Fang is now General Mishe. The beloved general under his command, no one would dare to insult his wife even if he is with him for a day, but things in the world are unpredictable, if something happens to him on the battlefield..." He shook his head and did not continue.
Liuli finally understood, "So before he goes to the battlefield, he will send Liu Ajian back to Xizhou?" But things are fickle, how can we be sure of certain things? Thinking of Liu Ruyue's calm and smiling expression when she mentioned the future today, and the determination and courage behind it, she felt a mixture of emotions and didn't know what to say.
Pei Xingjian didn’t speak. After a while, he said, “If I were Brother Fang, I probably wouldn’t dare to take such a risk.”
Liuli thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "If I were Liu Ajian, I would probably go with you even if I die. I can't regret this moment for the rest of my life because of the unpredictability of future misfortunes."
Pei Xingjian looked at Liuli for a while, then lowered his head and kissed her on the cheek, murmuring, "I know, of course I know."
On the second day, Ashina Mishe left with his generals. Before leaving, he left some gold and silver for Fang Liepo. Pei Xingjian helped him find a nearby courtyard in Qushui Fang and took care of it. There was a marriage. Since both parties had no relatives or elders, the marriage was simple. A marriage letter and betrothal gift entered Liu Ruyue's small yard. The next night, she was carried on a shoulder cart to the hastily packed new house.
Liu Ruyue was well-connected, and the neighbors in Qushuifang also knew that she had been separated from her family. When they heard that she had finally found her cousin who had been engaged since childhood, they were all happy for her. People who came to watch the ceremony filled the courtyard. It became even more lively when they saw Prince Qu and Pei Changshi also visiting the house. Liu Ruyue’s face was gone, and her brows were so soft and beautiful that it took your breath away. Fang Lie wore a bright red wedding robe and seemed to be several years younger, but he just kept smiling from the moment he went to the church to sitting at the tent.
Liuli had seen the enthusiasm of Xizhou people to get a new son-in-law, and couldn't help but feel a little worried. She quietly said to Pei Xingjian, "Could it be that the bridegroom was beaten to the head before and was knocked unconscious?"
Pei Xingjian was in a good mood. He had drunk a lot of wine. His fair cheeks were slightly ocher. He squinted his eyes and smiled, "Don't worry, Brother Fang is better than me. How can these women from Qushui Fang be better?" Can it hurt him? He is just too happy."
Liuli glanced at him suspiciously, "Are you very good at martial arts?" She paused and muttered, "So you look like this when you are so happy. When you got married, you were still thinking of scheming others. It shows that your happiness is limited!"
Pei Xingjian was stunned for a long time, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Of course it's all my fault, I don't dare to do it anymore."
Liuli's eyes widened immediately, full of surprise, "More? How many more times do you want to get married?"
Pei Xingjian couldn't help but cover his forehead and sighed. He didn't know what to say for a moment. Suddenly he saw the corners of Liuli's mouth curled up suspiciously, and he suddenly woke up. Seeing people all around him, he could only grit his teeth and whisper, "You little narrow-minded ghost! "
Liuli ignored him, picked up the jade cup filled with light fruit wine in front of her, took a long sip, and looked at Fang Lie and Liu Ruyue sitting in Baizi's tent, the corners of her mouth raised high.
Pei Xingjian looked at her smile and felt a heat in his chest. He quietly held Liuli's hand a few times on the table. Liuli hurriedly moved out quietly, but couldn't get away. Instead, he wrapped her whole hand in his palm. Massage gently. Her face couldn't help but feel a little hot, and she hurriedly lowered her head and took another sip of wine.
Pei Xingjian lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Don't drink any more. If you drink too much, do you want me to carry you back?"
There was a strange ambiguity in his voice, and his warm breath blew directly on Liuli's earlobes. Liuli's face turned even redder, and Pei Xingjian couldn't look away.
Suddenly there was a burst of laughter from the front, and the first curtain of the Baizi Tent fell down, covering the two figures sitting together. Pei Xingjian put down the wine glass hard, pulled Liuli and stood up, facing Qu Chongyu nodded and smiled, "Pei said goodbye."
Liuli struggled twice but did not break away from his clasped hand. She couldn't help but whisper, "Why are you crazy?"
Pei Xingjian raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "If you don't hold your hand, how can you grow old with me?" He held her hand generously and walked out.
Qu Chongyu looked at the backs of the two people leaving hand in hand, and then at the two shadows that were getting closer and closer on the fallen curtain. Suddenly, he felt unspeakably annoyed, and he stood up in his entire clothes. He walked outside without saying a word.
Feng Piaopiao, who was watching the excitement in front of the tent, caught a glimpse of his face, felt a sudden rush in his heart, and quickly pulled away to follow him.
The night was already dark, but fortunately, the full moon was in the sky, illuminating the eaves of the road clearly. Qu Chongyu was walking on the road, looking at his own shadow under his feet, and he couldn't help but feel more depressed. Suddenly he heard the sound of footsteps behind him, but it was the wind. Piao had followed her, looked at her several times, turned around and continued walking back.
Feng Piaopiao was so frightened by the sight that he didn't dare to get too close, so he kept a few steps behind him and silently followed him to the road outside the workshop. Qu Chongyu suddenly stopped, and Feng Piaopiao also quickly stopped his steps. Qu Chongyu didn't say anything. After a long time, he suddenly sighed, "Piaopiao, how old are you this year?"
Feng Piaopiao felt very puzzled and could only whisper, "It's the 21st this year."
Qu Chongyu said "hmm", and after a long silence he said, "Three years... Piao Piao, you..." After a moment of pause, he said, "You are not young anymore. Have you ever thought about what kind of person you want to find?" The tone was actually quite difficult.
Feng Piaopiao's heart suddenly started beating wildly. She looked up and saw Qu Chongyu standing only two steps away from her. The moonlight reflected that handsome face, which looked like a jade sculpture. His eyes were unblinking. Looking at himself, his expression was strange as never before.
Her heart beat faster, she took a deep breath, and a smile appeared on her face, "Thank you for your concern, Prince. The person Piao Piao is looking for... The Prince also knows, he is Madam Xu's brother from Dashahai, Xiao Maoqi's Uncle, he has been waiting for Piaopiao for several years. "
Qu Chongyu's face suddenly stiffened, and he paused for a moment before laughing loudly, "So it's him! That's great! When you two get married, I will definitely give you a big gift. I'm going back home, so you should go back first. ." After saying that, he turned around and walked away, walking much faster than before.
Feng Piaopiao watched as Qu Chongyu's back gradually faded away in the moonlight. If it weren't for the awkwardness in his steps, perhaps even the banished immortal wouldn't be taller and more elegant than him... She couldn't help but sigh and looked back. Looking at the gate of Qu Shuifang, a smile slowly appeared on his face. The prince is indeed noble and handsome, but why did she Feng Piaopiao marry a husband who didn't even know how old she was? Why be a concubine? Her husband should be like the groom today, he only has the bride in his eyes and heart! Speaking of which, Xu Erlang, who was usually smart and capable, but could only smile when he saw him, it was time for him to give him an answer.
She raised her head and glanced. In the jade-like sky, the full moon was incredibly bright and perfect... The moonlight tonight is so beautiful!
Hehehehe, I have wanted to write this chapter for a long time! So cool! I am actually the biological mother of the female supporting character (ahem, except for a few people), right? Well, let me say something very vulgar, everyone, look at your pockets. If there is pink, can you vote for A Lan? If not, don’t vote together. Your subscription is the greatest support for me. In addition, there are already 500 votes. I owe you all the extra updates. I will make up for it next month. Tomorrow's update will be around noon. It will be adjusted back to the morning in the future. Thank you for your support p.s. The so-called Turkic law, which is the marriage custom of the Hu people, is that children can inherit the women of their father and brothers, but fathers and brothers cannot possess their children's women, so it is Hu custom to say that a father-in-law marries his daughter-in-law. , it’s just nonsense. This kind of thing is something that barbarians—except Dang Xiangjiang—disdain.
