Chapter 56
Chapter 56
Sang Yuanyuan and You Wuming hugged each other and laughed for a while.
She suddenly thought of something and raised her small face to look at him. "Why would Lord Father agree to marry me to you so easily?"
She originally thought that this matter would take a few days.
Speaking of this, You Wuming immediately sat up straight and pulled her out of his embrace. He grabbed her shoulder and said seriously, "Little Sang Guo, do you know how much money I spent on the betrothal gifts?
In the future, you have to think of a way to earn money for me — — I'm good at everything else, but I don't earn as much as I spend. "
Sang Yuanyuan: "… … So you used money to get Lord Father to agree?"
This was completely different from what she had imagined!
So this kind of matter could be solved with money?
"That's right," You Wuming said lightly. "I kept increasing the price, increasing it, increasing it until he agreed."
Sang Yuanyuan: "… … So how much money did you spend?"
He leaned closer and said in a low voice, "All of my family's assets, plus the taxes for the next five years."
Sang Yuanyuan: "… …" Very good, you've learned how to spend money in advance and pay in installments.
So she was about to marry a member of the Moonlight Clan with nothing to show for it?
This wasn't domineering at all!
His eyes shone with the light of money. "Such an expensive fruit naturally has to be protected well. If even a strand of hair were to fall, it would be a loss of a lot of gold."
Sang Yuanyuan: "… …"
… …
At daybreak, Sang Bujin led a thousand of his personal guards and set off in the direction of the State of Korea.
Han Shaoling's birthday was in three days, and the invitations had already been sent to the various states. Bai and Feng Prefectures each sent two princesses to attend the banquet in the State of Korea. The carriages passed by Sang Prefecture and met Sang Bujin's group as soon as they left the city.
Sang Bujin got off the carriage and spoke with the princes of Bai and Feng Prefectures.
Sang Yuanyuan could only get off the carriage and entertain them.
The two princesses of Bai Prefecture were both fair and plump. They had the appearance of a cheerful and charming person.
The Wind Province was famous for its violent winds and many deserts. The two princesses had dark skin like beauties of the Western Regions.
When they saw Sang Yuanyuan, the four women had a tacit understanding. They looked at each other and disappointment appeared in their eyes. Since the State of Korea's King had invited this' ex-wife ', he must have the intention of reconciling with her. What else could they do?
The princesses bowed to each other and quietly sized up Sang Yuanyuan.
She was wearing an ice blue silk dress, which made her skin look like it was covered in frost and snow. Her color was like a flower bud at the dawn of spring.
Her black hair was loosely tied up, falling on her elegant and slender neck. Her temperament was somewhat languid, but it was so noble that no one dared to look at her directly.
The royal family was particular about etiquette and status. Even if they were jealous, they would never say anything inappropriate in front of others.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the princesses returned to their respective carriages in a dignified manner and slowly set off on the road to the State of Korea.
The Bai sisters couldn't help but complain as soon as they got into the car.
"The State of Korea's King is really boring!
Since you've already invited Sang Yuanyuan, why are you still inviting us?
To serve as a witness and foil for them! "
"That's right!
With her here, who would be able to steal the limelight?
Why don't we just go back home! "
"If we turn back now, wouldn't we be laughed at to death?
Heh, it doesn't matter. In any case, it's not just the two of us who are unlucky. "
"Speaking of which, wasn't Sang Yuanyuan kidnapped by … that person for a while? The State of Korea's King doesn't mind?
He's really broad-minded! "
Just as they were complaining, they suddenly saw their elder brother bow and get into the car.
The two sisters glared at him, aggrieved.
Prince Bai was full of joy. "Don't put on such a dejected face!
Just now, Sang Bujin already told me everything. His sister is already engaged and won't fight with you over Han Shaoling! "
"Who?
With whom? "
Prince Bai shook his head. "I don't know.
Sang Province is very tight-lipped. There hasn't been any news at all. "
"It can't be You … right?
A few days ago, wasn't there a rumor that Sang Yuanyuan was kidnapped by that person and wouldn't leave his side day and night? "the younger sister quietly asked.
"How's that possible!" the older sister said, "Does that person look like he would marry?
Of course, she must have been married to someone. After all, she's a woman he's touched twice. Any man with some status would not want to be a bastard!
How degrading. "
As soon as they heard that Sang Yuanyuan would not get back together with Han Shaoling, these two girls immediately forgot that they had just treated her as an undefeatable enemy. Now, they had belittled her to the lowest level — Human psychology was often this strange and subtle.
"Don't guess blindly."
Young Master Bai said happily, "I've already asked around. Among all the girls attending this banquet, in terms of appearance, besides Yun Xuzhou from the Cloud State and Qin Wushuang from the Qin State, you two are the most outstanding.
Yun Xuzhou has a strong personality and I'm afraid Han Shaoling will not like her.
And Qin Wushuang's body is weak, so it will be difficult for him to have children.
You two have the biggest hope!
Ah, I'm so happy for you two! "
The two girls immediately became happy.
One of them said: "That's great!
If that's the case, why don't we sneak into his palace after the banquet and do it with him? Then, this man will be ours! "
"Let's do it together. By that time, it doesn't matter who becomes the big sister!
But … will Han be able to handle the two of us together? "
"Wouldn't it be fine if we bring the magical dew!"
The two girls giggled together.
Prince Bai said faintly: "If it's successful, remember to help me more in the future!"
…
On the side of the Wind State, the atmosphere was somewhat different.
Two dark and skinny girls held hands. Both of their faces were red and full of excited smiles.
"Long time no see, Prince Sang is still so charming!"
"That's right!
Just now, I was so excited that I almost forgot myself!
How could he be so good-looking! "
"Is that so!
It would be great if we could marry a man who is more beautiful than a woman. In the future, our children would be so beautiful! "
Prince Feng sat on the side and rolled his eyes: "Ok ok, you two love-struck fools, keep it to yourself!
Don't embarrass the Wind State outside!
Speaking of which, Prince Sang is really good-looking. If I were a girl, I would also want to marry him. "
"Brother, you can marry Princess Sang?
Then, won't we be even closer? "The younger sister came forward:" Princess Sang is so beautiful!
Brother, are you really not tempted? "
"Princess Sang is already engaged!"
Prince Feng said: "I think Sang Zhou is regretting it now. Who would have thought that Han Shaoling would want to reconcile?
But it's hard to say. If Han Shaoling wants to reconcile, Sang Zhou might break off the arranged marriage and continue with their relationship.
Hey hey, don't talk about me!
Anyway, you two better behave yourselves in front of Sang Bujin, do you hear me? "
"Yes, we hear you!"
…
Sang State was full of short mulberries.
Sang Yuantian sat in the carriage and listened to the conversation between the two princes and princesses of the Bai and Feng provinces.
The corners of her eyes twitched, then twitched again.
She thought to herself, 'In the future, no matter if I'm avoiding people or not, I can't speak so unscrupulously like them. Who knows, someone might hear me.
'These guys from the White State!
Heh, no wonder they produce that kind of thing!
It turns out that the women are like wolves and tigers, while the men are weak and useless! '
Sang Yuanyuan thought gloatingly.
As for the Wind State … The Wind State sisters' temperament was actually not bad. Unfortunately, they were not fated to be together with Sang Bujin.
"Little Sister, where did You Wuming go?" Sang Bujin asked.
Sang Yuanyuan didn't know either.
He told her to go with Sang Bujin first and that she would come after changing her clothes. Who knew that she was still nowhere to be seen.
When Sang Bujin thought about how he would see Yun Xuzhou in three days, he felt uncertain. He only wanted to have a good discussion with his brother-in-law so that he could perform better next time and make up for the points he lost.
Seeing that You Wuming didn't appear, he couldn't help but feel anxious.
"Big Brother, why did you suddenly become so close with You Wuming?"
Sang Bujin raised his hands and coughed. "We're going to be a family, so we naturally have to love each other."
Sang Yuanyuan looked at him suspiciously.
She could vaguely guess that Sang Bujin was looking for You Wuming because of Yun Xuzhou. However, no matter how she looked at it, shouldn't he discuss this with his little sister?
Could it be that You Wuming was going to find Yun Xuzhou for him to have a heart-to-heart talk?
When she thought about this, Sang Yuanyuan couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
Yun Xuzhou's feelings for Sang Bujin were unquestionable, but Sang Bujin didn't seem to understand his feelings for Yun Xuzhou at all.
That day, she didn't hesitate to ruin her chastity to cure him of the poison. He said that he wanted to take responsibility, but he didn't even help her up. He didn't even say a single word of sweet talk. He just left her in the car. He was really too cold.
Thinking about it, if You Wuming did the same to her, she didn't know how sad she would be.
She frowned. Could it be that Sang Bujin didn't want to take responsibility anymore?
Otherwise, why would he keep holding onto You Wuming to discuss it with him?
Did he think that You Wuming was ruthless and heartless?
If that's the case, he really misjudged you!
You Wuming was clearly her peerless cutie!
With that thought in mind, Sang Yuanyuan indignantly spoke up for You Wuming.
"Big Brother, are you still biased against You Wuming?
Let me tell you, he's the best man in the world!
He and I will never be separated in this lifetime! "
Sang Bujin: "!!!" As expected, she was amazing!
Look at how infatuated she was with him!
He was even more determined to hug You Wuming's thighs.
He had to acknowledge him as his teacher!
…
At this moment, in the White Shop in Sang Du, a customer with his face covered sneaked into the shop.
He was tall and slender, and slightly thin.
He casually stood in front of the counter, and his aura made the shop owner subconsciously calm down. The shop owner held his breath and went forward to serve him.
Although this person's face was covered and his expression couldn't be seen, he inexplicably made the shop owner's hair stand on end.
The murderous aura on his body was too strong!
Finally, he opened his mouth. "Twenty boxes of hibiscus resin."
"Yes, yes." The shop owner heaved a sigh of relief and bowed to get it.
The mysterious customer quickly added, "One bottle of mystical dew.
I'm buying it for my older brother-in-law. "
The shop owner had been tense for a long time, and when he suddenly heard this, he suddenly relaxed. He wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare to.
The mysterious customer: "…"
After getting the items, he left the White Shop in a big stride and hurriedly slipped into a small alley at the side.
A quarter of an hour later, an average-looking man dressed as a guard rode a cloud beast at an extremely fast speed towards the north.
"Little Sang Guo." He gritted his teeth and weighed the heavy cloth bag in his hand. "Next time, when I have hibiscus resin, see if I'll let you off so easily!"
He proudly raised his chin and tried hard to drive out the bottle of mystical dew that was hidden at the bottom of the cloth bag and 'bought for my older brother-in-law' from his mind.
Shang Ming ran very fast, and it didn't take long for it to catch up with the caravan.
It was always very happy to see Sang Yuanyuan. It anxiously stood up half of its furry body, put its two front paws on the window, and hung its head on the window. It was so happy that it wanted to sneeze — it knew that it was impolite to sneeze at Sang Yuanyuan, so it politely turned to the side and sneezed three times in a row.
You Wuming almost burst out laughing.
After comforting Shang Ming, Sang Yuanyuan leaned on the window and called You Wuming to get in the car.
"I think I'm about to advance. Come on up and give me a ride."
She didn't feel that there was anything wrong with being carried by You Wuming to advance.
In the original work, Meng Wuyou also cultivated later on. Like every 'independent' female lead, she had a lot of self-respect and pride. She absolutely didn't want Han Shaoling's help. In the end, her advancement was like a tortoise's crawl. In the end, she was still a burden.
In Sang Yuanyuan's eyes, she was an idiot whose brain was flooded with water.
Using the fastest speed to increase her strength, not being a burden to others, and even becoming a true powerhouse on her own, wasn't that worth a million times more than the pretentious' self-respect 'she had in the early stages?
You Wuming liked it the most when she hugged his thigh so confidently.
However, he still said disdainfully, "You're like a snail. Cultivating with you makes me so lazy!"
The two of them flirted happily, but Sang Bujin was even more depressed.
He said, "Little Sister, cultivate by yourself first. I have something important to discuss with You Wuming."
Sang Yuanyuan: "?"
At this moment, You Wuming just happened to jump into the carriage.
Sang Bujin just happened to stand up and walk out in a hurry. The two of them bumped into each other with a bang.
As a result, the big bag in You Wuming's hand was knocked against the wall of the carriage with a 'whoosh' sound.
He was stunned. Then, his black eyes filled with fear. He weakly reached out to grab it …
But it was already too late.
The bundle fell apart with a whoosh. Piles of square jade boxes containing hibiscus resin flew in all directions.
Among the pile of jade boxes, a small white jade bottle was very eye-catching.
Sang Bujin didn't know what it was at all. He casually apologized and bent down to pick it up for him.
You Wuming couldn't save him in time. He could only watch as Sang Bujin grabbed the small white jade bottle in his hand …
"Bai Clan's Magical Dew." The ignorant Sang Bujin read the black words on the small red slip of paper stuck to the bottle.
For a moment, the carriage was so quiet that it was as if it had encountered a black hole.
Sang Yuanyuan stared blankly at You Wuming. He watched as You Wuming's disguised face turned pale and green.
Sang Bujin straightened his body and handed the bottle of Bai Clan's Magical Dew to You Wuming.
He was in a hurry to ask him questions, so he didn't care about such a small matter.
After handing it over a few times, he realized that You Wuming didn't take it. He couldn't help but feel puzzled. He lowered his head and looked at the hibiscus resin scattered all over the floor.
'Is such a small matter worth getting angry over?' Sang Bujin thought to himself. 'Forget it. Now isn't the time to bicker over this.'
He casually placed the Magical Dew on the short table in front of Sang Yuanyuan. Then, he bent down to pick up the hibiscus resin for You Wuming.
"Bai Zhou Hibiscus Resin."
Sang Bujin read the words engraved on the jade box and tried his best to liven up the atmosphere. "You Wuming. You really care about your little sister. You bought so much face cream. Can you use it all?
Was the magical dew supposed to be used together as well?
It's quite effective, isn't it? "
He even turned to look at Sang Yuanyuan. "En. Your complexion is indeed much better than before!"
You Wuming was speechless. He felt like dying.
Sang Yuanyuan's face also turned red like a peach.
He really was his own brother!
You Wuming's dark and stiff eyes finally moved slowly a few times.
"Sang Bujin," Sang Bujin's voice was very light. "I bought these for you."
As soon as he said that, You Wuming's face immediately regained a lot of color. His long and narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his lips hooked up into a mischievous smile.
Sang Bujin asked, "You bought them for me?"
You Wuming quickly nodded. His eyebrows were raised high, and his delicate lips curved upwards. He said in a mysterious voice, "That's right. I bought them for you as you requested."
Sang Bujin stared blankly for a moment. His fair and handsome face slowly turned the color of pig liver.
After a while, Sang Bujin took advantage of the fact that his sister didn't understand and asked with great difficulty, "Just … an hour?"
"That's right!" You Wuming raised his eyebrows and nodded. "You can only use two drops. More than two drops will kill you.
The hibiscus cream isn't for the face, understand?
The Magical Dew is for you. The hibiscus cream is for Yun Xuzhou.
Do you understand? "
Sang Bujin nodded heavily. He quickly put the hibiscus cream and the bottle of Magical Dew back into the bag that was scattered on the floor. He hurriedly stuffed it under the soft couch, and then smiled at Sang Yuanyuan. "Ah, I forgot. I asked You Wuming to buy some small gifts for Yun Xuzhou.
They're not anything special. They're just for ordinary girls. You won't be able to use them. "
Sang Yuanyuan rubbed her forehead. "En, as long as you're happy."
After resolving the crisis, You Wuming secretly let out a long sigh. He pretended to be indifferent as he walked towards the soft couch.
He smiled mischievously and grabbed Sang Yuanyuan's shoulder. "Come, I'll take you to cultivate."
She was in a daze.
His aura suddenly attacked her. Her heart couldn't help but palpitate slightly. Her body trembled, and a hint of embarrassment appeared in her eyes.
Her breathing also became chaotic for a moment.
After yesterday's intimacy, something had changed.
As soon as he approached, it was as if there was something extra in her chest. It was soft and numb, and it tugged at her fingertips.
When You Wuming saw this, he felt as if his heart was soaked in warm water, and it was about to melt.
"Little Sang Guo …" His voice became hoarse.
"Cough cough cough cough!" Sang Bujin angrily interrupted.
Sang Yuanyuan's ears burned, and she hurriedly crossed her legs to meditate.
She couldn't calm down for a long time.
He was too close, and his aura was strong. The wood spirits he gathered seemed to be infected with his unique dark flower fragrance.
He gathered the wood spirits to her side, and observed her silhouette in silence.
Just her silhouette was so beautiful that it was incurable.
She looked small and soft, as if she would melt with a touch. Just by looking at her appearance, it was impossible to tell that she had such a strong heart.
In fact, his Little Sang Guo was very strong.
He knew that even without him, she would still walk forward with her head held high. She was like water. Although she looked weak, she could actually cut through walls and pierce through stone.
There was nothing that could stop her.
What did he do to deserve this? How could he have met such a little fruit?
Time always passed quickly while meditating.
When the carriage entered the Han capital, Sang Yuanyuan had successfully advanced to the fifth layer of the Spiritual Realm. She opened her eyes and waved her hand.
The entire carriage was immediately filled with Large-Faced Flowers.
Now that she had leveled up, the number of Large-Faced Flowers she could summon increased exponentially. At the fourth layer, she could summon twenty flowers. Now that she had advanced to the fifth layer, she could summon forty flowers.
The Large-Faced Flowers grew even bigger, and they filled the entire carriage. Some of the Large-Faced Flowers had nowhere to put them and were squeezed to the ground, paralyzed.
Sang Bujin, who was squeezed to the wall of the carriage, was speechless.
You Wuming resisted the urge to laugh. "Little Sang Guo, why don't you try to make them grow teeth?
Although I don't need you to fight with me, it's always better to have some ability to scare people. "
Sang Yuanyuan glared at him with grief and indignation.
The Large-Faced Flowers were already very annoying, let alone the Large-Faced Flowers and Large-Toothed Flowers …
Who didn't want to be a little fairy?!
She thought for a moment, and felt that the five green spirit strings in her mind were somewhat restless.
'Attack!'
With a thought, she put away the Large-Faced Flowers and suddenly threw them toward the center of the carriage.
A thin and long brown stalk stood in the middle of the carriage, and a bright red flower quickly emerged from the top of the stalk.
The petals were closed, and it looked like a golden flower bud.
Sang Bujin moved closer in surprise. "It looks like it can spit fire."
Sang Yuanyuan couldn't stop him in time.
The Large-Faced Flower Bud suddenly jumped up, and then looked down from above, covering Sang Bujin's head.
The petals parted with a whoosh, and like a snake swallowing something, it bit down on Sang Bujin.
In the blink of an eye, the Large-Faced Flower Bud had already swallowed Sang Bujin's ankle, trapping his body in the brown stalk.
Sang Yuanyuan jumped in fright, and hurriedly waved her hand to remove the Large-Faced Flower Bud.
Sang Bujin's eyes were wide open, and he stood in the middle of the carriage in an incomparably sorry state. His clothes had been torn into rags, and his entire body was covered in brown mucus. After three breaths, the mucus was completely gone.
You Wuming laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back.
Before he could name the flower, Sang Yuanyuan hurriedly said, "Man-eating Flower!"
Sang Bujin wiped his face.
After a while, he finally calmed down.
"My cultivation is at Sixth Heavenly Layer of the Spiritual Realm," he said. "This flower can trap me for seven or eight minutes, and can probably injure me slightly.
In other words, cultivators below Third Heavenly Layer of the Spiritual Realm will most likely lose their lives.
Little sister, this is a vicious object. Remember not to throw it everywhere! "
Sang Yuanyuan nodded solemnly.
… …
In the evening, the Sang, Bai, and Feng carriages smoothly arrived at the Han Palace.
Thirty years of marriage was an extremely grand ceremony. The Han Palace was already decorated in a festive manner, decorated in red and green. Before the sky turned dark, the palace was already lit with lanterns. In the Blackstone City, red and green lights reflected each other. One could tell at a glance that a wedding banquet was about to be held.
Sang Bujin supported Sang Yuanyuan and gracefully stepped off the beast carriage.
Coincidentally, she happened to see Meng Wuyou dressed up as a little handmaiden. Her eyes were red as she ran away from home. The mask on her face had been taken off at some point. Her face was smooth and there were no traces of disfigurement.
Sang Yuanyuan wasn't surprised at all.
Which female lead could really be disfigured?
"Isn't that a fake?" You Wuming laughed evilly. "Why don't I follow her …"
She raised her hand and gestured around her neck.
Sang Yuanyuan hurriedly shook her head. "Don't!
Ignore her. "
She was one hundred percent sure that Meng Wuyou was hiding some unknown secret.
Now that she found out that she was Sang Yuanyuan, Sang Yuanyuan began to feel that something unusual was going on. Her intuition told her that whatever happened to her was more or less related to Meng Wuyou.
Before she figured out the other party's background, she would definitely suffer if she acted rashly.
Let's take a look first.
Han Shaoling personally came out to welcome them.
He looked extremely good as he strode towards Sang Yuanyuan. When he was about ten feet away from her, he stood firmly and a confident smile appeared on his handsome face. "You're here."
His gaze was meaningful, as if he had a lot to say to her.
Both parties greeted each other with the greeting of royalty.
The royalty of Bai and Feng provinces also arrived. They walked forward and greeted each other.
After the greeting, Han Shaoling stared at Sang Yuanyuan with a burning gaze.
The outside world didn't know the details of what had happened during this period of time.
After You Wuming entered the capital to assassinate Huangfu Jun, he ordered his substitute to lead the army to attack the capital of Ji Province.
The substitute didn't have a woman by his side. The outside world guessed that Sang Chengyin must have reached an agreement with You Wuming. In exchange, You Wuming returned Sang Yuanyuan to Sang Chengyin.
In the eyes of the outside world, You Wuming and Sang Yuanyuan no longer had any interactions.
If that wasn't the case, Han Shaoling wouldn't have sent an invitation to Sang Province.
However, Sang Yuanyuan was very surprised that You Wuming's appearance in Sang Du and setting a wedding date with her hadn't spread to the outside world yet!
Thinking about it, after the traitor appeared last time, Sang Province's King must have ruthlessly cleaned up Sang Province's upper echelons.
"Princess Sang seems a bit haggard."
Han Shaoling took two steps closer and said in a low and magnetic voice, "Did you not live well after leaving me?"
Sang Yuanyuan glanced at him in bewilderment.
Wasn't he just making irresponsible remarks?
Her complexion today shouldn't be too rosy!
She laughed softly and said, "I am a bit worried.
Today's ceremony is a major event after all. Those who came here are the future pillars of the eighteen prefectures. Nothing must happen to them, otherwise Cloud Realm will be in danger. "
Han Shaoling was speechless. He was talking about the feelings between a man and a woman, but she was actually thinking about the world?!
Just as he was about to speak, Sang Yuanyuan gently but firmly interrupted him. "When I entered the city just now, I saw a maid sneaking out along the wall. No matter how I look at it, I feel like there's something wrong. King of Han, is your palace's security so lax?
I'm really a bit worried! "
Han Shaoling couldn't help but laugh. "How can the Han Palace allow people to come and go as they please …"
Halfway through his words, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
There was a 'maid' who could come and go as she pleased.
Han Shaoling's expression changed slightly. He no longer pestered Sang Yuanyuan and hurriedly bowed. He ordered his servants to properly settle down the guests from Sang Province, Feng Province, and Bai Province before he chased outside.
Sang Yuanyuan looked back and saw You Wuming standing behind her with his arms crossed and a faint smile on his face.
She mischievously winked at him and laughed softly at Han Shaoling's back. "Next time, do you want to write a 'Han Palace Pampered Bed: The Evil King's Ninety-nine Times Escaped Wife'?"
He leaned forward slightly and said in an extremely low and warm voice, "No, I want the ninety-nine Pampered Bed Scenes of the Evil King and his Delicate Wife in the Han Palace."
Sang Yuanyuan was speechless.
