Chapter 923 Chapter 923 An unexpected visitor at the wedding hall
As soon as I saw the bright red scenery in front of me, Li'er shouted "Wow, so beautiful", and then jumped over, fiddling with the red lanterns, and then plucking the red silk under the corridor, having fun. When I first went out to see this scene, I was worried that this scene would remind Li'er of some bad memories, but I didn't expect that she would no longer mind this matter, which made me happy.
Pei Yuanxiu also smiled and attached himself to my ear and said, "Look, isn't this a happy event?"
“…”
"You, don't worry too much."
I glanced at him and smiled, "You are more verbose than me."
The two of them were walking forward while talking and laughing. On the other road, Liu Qinghan and Wen Fengxi were also talking in a low voice and walked towards the main road. It seemed that for today's happy event, and the weather was getting colder, they also bought new clothes. Liu Qinghan was wearing a dark blue robe and a jade belt, while Wen Fengxi was wearing a jade brocade robe. Both of them were long-bodied men. It was quite pleasing to walk like this.
As soon as Li'er saw Liu Qinghan, she immediately ran over: "Uncle San!"
Perhaps because today is a happy day, everyone's faces were full of joy. Even the mask on Liu Qinghan's face seemed to have a smile, and he said with a smile: "Li'er gets up so early?"
"Well, my father and mother said that today is a wedding."
"Yes, happy event."
He raised his head, his face still smiling, Pei Yuanxiu and I also walked in front of them.
Although I know that they are not very harmonious behind their backs, today is a wedding, so the atmosphere is still quite pleasant. Even Wen Fengxi, who has been full of thoughts and seriousness since entering Sichuan, had a smile on his face. As soon as everyone met, they bowed to each other to celebrate.
At this moment, several servants also came to invite us, and we walked forward together.
When I walked to the hall, I swept away the snow-white and coldness of the mourning hall before, and turned into a sea of flames. The entire wedding hall was arranged very festively, especially the four large lanterns under the eaves of the main entrance, which were huge and bright red. The colorful tassels below swayed lightly in the wind, fluttering and beautiful. All the servants looking down on the hall also changed into new clothes, tied with bright red belts, busy inside and out, and everyone was smiling.
Pei Yuanxiu smiled and said, "Look, it seems like he is having a wedding now, right?"
If you say that you are going to have a wedding, it should be like this.
I smiled and looked up. In the middle of the hall, a familiar red figure was bowing to the person who came to congratulate him. His young and handsome face was filled with a joyful smile.
It is Pei Yuanfeng, today's groom.
The red dress made him look particularly handsome and upright, and his spirit was brilliant, especially his tiger eyes looked particularly bright. Compared to the reckless and honest Xiao Wu in the palace, the young general who was heroic on the battlefield, the man in front of him had lost the young man's immatureness and had a bit of the charm of a mature man, which made people feel moved.
After returning to Chengdu for so long, I also knew that he had his own mansion, but after all, his identity was extraordinary to the Yan family, so he still had the marriage done for him at the owner of the Yan family's house, and Yan Qingchen tried his best to win him over.
As soon as the person who congratulated him left, Pei Yuanxiu and I took Li'er forward.
As soon as he saw us, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Groom, congratulations."
"Thank you."
As we spoke, I pulled Li'er behind me over. She held a half-large brocade box in her arms, looked at Pei Yuanfeng with wide eyes, and said, "Congratulations to Uncle Wu."
Pei Yuanfeng immediately smiled and squatted down, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Li'er."
Their uncle and nephew also had some unhappy memories, but Li'er was very obedient and did not mention this matter again. Today is Pei Yuanfeng's wedding, and of course he was also very happy. He took the brocade box and opened it and saw that there was a pair of exquisitely carved jade Ruyi. Pei Yuanxiu and I finally found a slightly satisfied wedding gift after visiting most of Chengdu City.
I smiled and said, "This time was a hurry and I couldn't prepare the gift. I laughed."
His wedding with Xue Muhua has a certain impact on us, but also on the future situation of the whole world. Of course, such a wedding gift cannot be careless, but we finally decided to give such a gift that can be called "cheesy".
Nothing else, just for the words Pei Yuanxiu said to me that day-
The more extraordinary a person is, the more criticized he is.
Think about it, what do we do if we live such an extraordinary life?
Sometimes, the more vulgar, the happier it is.
Pei Yuanfeng seemed to understand completely. Looking at the pair of gentle Yu Ruyi, he slowly closed the lid and smiled at me, "Thank you for your gift." As he said that, he whispered to me, "Qingying, in fact, you have given me the best gift. I, Pei Yuanfeng, are so grateful!"
I was a little surprised by his solemn thanks. I was stunned and understood.
What he said was Huang Tianba.
There was no Huang Tianba between him and Xue Muhua, so he could have reached this point.
I promised them a possible happy future.
Thinking of the thin, isolated figure, my throat choked, but I didn't say anything, just smiled calmly.
Seeing that more and more guests came here, Pei Yuanfeng handed the brocade box to a servant next to him and asked him to take it back and put it in place. He then greeted the person who came to congratulate him for a few words. I looked at him but it seemed something was wrong. While the congratulatory person was walking away and he took a cup of tea and drank it to moisten his throat, I walked to him and whispered: "What's wrong?"
He looked at me, then looked around, and did not answer me immediately, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
After a while, he said softly: "Old Yao hasn't arrived yet."
"oh?"
"We went out a month ago when we asked him to go out. We have estimated the time and sent someone to greet him, but now, the person who picked him up has not come back."
"No news came here?"
"No."
I didn't say anything, but just frowned slightly.
However, looking around, looking at the joyful scenes around and the pleasant smiles, I still comforted him and said, "The road to Sichuan is not easy to walk, maybe there is some delay. Don't worry, today is your good day after all, and Lao Yao will definitely arrive."
He glanced at me, didn't say anything, but nodded gently.

We didn't stop on this topic anymore. Seeing another group of guests coming to congratulate, Pei Yuanfeng cheered up and went over to socialize one by one. At this moment, a noise sounded from the side. When he looked back, it turned out that Yan Qingchen and Xue Qian had also walked to the lobby.
As soon as the master appeared, the people around him who came to congratulate him rushed forward, and they all came forward to congratulate and flatter him.
It is no exaggeration to say that Xichuan is outside the rule of the Celestial Empire, which is equivalent to an independent dynasty. However, Yan Qingchen, or my father, is relatively restrained, and has not given the world an excuse to "slay them together" over the years. However, their status in Xichuan is truly unknown, and they do not have so many etiquette and laws, but they can see many people and things clearly.
Seeing that some people seemed to be coming to me, I slowly stepped aside, an inconspicuous corner.
Just so happened that I saw Liu Qinghan standing here, as if I was watching coldly.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled faintly.
After standing for a while, watching the crowds in the hall, the corner seemed to be more and more lonely. Liu Qinghan stood for a while, as if to break the embarrassing silence, and smiled: "I have met my wife so much, but I really didn't expect that the wife was born and such a prosperous place, and she was extremely rich."
"Oh?" My lips curled: "Why?"
"A woman born in the beautiful bushes, even if she is not arrogant, is somewhat delicate." He said, looking at Li'er. This girl is now surrounded by a few young men from a wealthy family in Xichuan, and has regained her "witch's true nature". I couldn't help but smile and heard Liu Qinghan say, "But Madam, there is no at all. I look at the words and deeds of my wife, and everyone talks about you. It seems that the Madam has suffered a lot in the past."
I turned around and looked at him.
"It seems that the wife can get to this point today, but it is really not easy for me to think about it."
“…”
I haven't forgotten that he had always wanted to ask me about him and me, but now these words seem to be testing something?
I thought about it and smiled indifferently, "It's probably because I feel very happy."
"Great joy?"
My heart is filled with joy, cleansing all evil in the world, and scattering all filth. Although my eyes can see colors, ears can hear sounds, and mouths can distinguish tastes, then my eyes will not be greedy for color, ears will not be greedy for sounds, nose will not be greedy for fragrance, tongue will not be greedy for taste, body will not be greedy for fine and smooth...
While murmuring and silently chanting this passage, another gentle, low, slightly hoarse-like voice sounded - it was my mother. On many nights, facing my crying and fighting, she would caress my head calmly, wipe away my tears, and recite this passage gently.
When I was a child, I didn’t seem to understand where her calmness and indifference came from, but now, after so much, I feel how difficult it is for my mother to read that passage.
When I woke up from my memories, I met Liu Qinghan's slightly frowning brow, as if I wanted to see something truth from me, but I couldn't tell it clearly.
After a while, he suddenly smiled and said, "I have experienced some changes and have forgotten all the past, but I see, although my wife has not forgotten it, it seems to be similar to ours..."
“…”
I paused, looked at him, and smiled: "Mr. Liu's eyes were like a torch."
He raised his eyebrows: "What did Madam forget?"
"Forgot all."
"Oh? Forgot all..."
He looked at me faintly, his tentative gaze seemed a little flashing, and at this moment, a loud voice sounded at the door-
“A guest is here!”

Originally, everyone was talking and laughing, and the hall was noisy. Moreover, the more powerful families and the deacons of the chaebol in Xichuan have arrived. It is not surprising that there are guests coming. But this time, the people in the wedding hall seemed to be pulled by something, and everyone subconsciously looked out the gate.
Under the stairs, a man slowly walked up.
This person is about the early thirties. He is not very handsome, but his temperament seems calm and capable. He looks like a rich young man with a good tutor, and gives people a feeling of being easy to get close to.
But what I saw clearly was the guards following him, one of them was cold and upright with a serious expression of seriousness and not too familiar, but at the moment I saw clearly, I was almost suffocated.
That's - Du Yan!?
I almost subconsciously reached out and rubbed my eyes, then opened my eyes wide to see. Yes, that cold face was indeed the first time I escorted Shui Xiu and I. Xiao Fuzi went out of the palace to Dulaiguan, and was secretly scolded and ridiculed by Shui Xiu because of his disagreement. But later, he actually bought the chain that Shui Xiu loved at the Dulaiguan and gave it to Shui Xiu's guard Du Yan!
He, isn't he a member of the Imperial Guard? How could he appear here?
