The Great Martial Saint!
Chapter 491: Red Rope Ties Early, Together Forever Old
"Gu Qingchan is looking for me?"
Chen Ping'an was just about to go to the Canglongzhou Pacification Office when he received news from the Gu family.
As the deputy governor of Beicang, now that he knew the news of Xue Kun's life and death, it was reasonable for him to go to the Canglongzhou Pacification Office.
Whether or not you can report the situation is secondary; the attitude of expression is the key!
"Master Chen, please."
A gilded rosewood carriage had already been parked outside the courtyard waiting, and the Gu family's steward stood aside with his head bowed, his posture respectful and his tone humble.
Chen Pingan looked calm and nodded slightly.
Under the other party's extremely respectful guidance, he quickly climbed onto the rosewood frame.
"Why are you looking for me at this critical moment? Is it because of Xue Kunsheng's matter, or something else?"
Inside the car frame, Chen Pingan's thoughts changed as he pondered Gu Qingchan's purpose in finding him this time.
During the time he was in Canglongzhou City, except for the first trip he made, he did not have much interaction with the Gu family.
"Could it be that the sword manual has been finalized?" Chen Pingan guessed secretly.
If it really is a sword manual, I wonder what level of magical skill the other party has found for him.
Is it a top-notch magical skill? Or a powerful magical skill?
Considering the other party's current status, if the grade is any lower, it would be a bit embarrassing.
If he could acquire another magical skill, his progress in martial arts would be more guaranteed.
Although the effect is limited, it's better than nothing!
Although he now has the two supreme magic skills, the Seven Absolute Magic Skills and the Ten Thousand Demons Body Forging Skills, but strictly speaking, they can only support him to practice for one or two years. If his realm is higher in the future and his practice speed is faster, the actual time spent may not even be one or two years.
He has a golden finger panel on him, and his method of breaking through the realm is very different from that of ordinary warriors!
If he waits until he has perfected both the two great techniques and still has no suitable technique to continue practicing, his progress will come to a halt and he will lose great opportunities.
In this case, he must prepare for the future and make plans early.
This is also the reason why he is so anxious to find a new technique.
There are requirements for the grade of the martial arts, and its power cannot be too bad. Considering all aspects, it is not easy to find a suitable one.
If we don’t act soon, there will be a huge gap in the future.
After a few words, Chen Pingan was able to get a martial arts technique from Gu Qingchan for free, and he was naturally very happy.
However, all these thoughts were just his guesses after all. He would have to wait until he met Gu Qingchan to know the details.
The Gu family's gilded rosewood carriage drove all the way, entered the core urban area without any obstruction, and soon arrived at the Gu family.
The lively scene in front of the Gu family's gate was no less lively than before, with many people coming to pay their respects.
However, most of them naturally had no way to enter. But they were not in a hurry and just waited outside. For them, they had a mission and they had to do their best. In addition, staying here could also communicate with many parties, which was also a good thing.
No matter what, their attitude has been seen by the Gu family!
You see, our forces are clearly standing under the banner of the Gu family.
Chen Ping'an got off the carriage, which caused another stir.
However, unlike before, this time someone has guessed Chen Pingan's identity.
The rising star of the Canglongzhou Pacification Office, a master on the Dragon and Tiger List, the deputy governor of Beicang, the rough knife Chen Ping'an!
"Did you see that? Chen Ping'an, the Rough Blade! One of the top ten experts on the Dragon and Tiger Rankings!"
"So it's him! No wonder he's so young!"
"That's what I thought! It turns out to be the famous Mang Dao! That makes sense!"
"I was wondering how this unfamiliar man got in before. Now I understand."
"Before? Has he been here before!?"
"Of course, I came here more than half a month ago, then..."
"Wait, more than half a month ago? Don't tell me you were here at that time?"
"Ahem. That's not important! What's important is that Mang Dao got in!"
"What's so strange about this? As the son-in-law of the Gu family, it's normal for him to go in with a rogue sword!"
"Gu family's good son-in-law? What does that mean?"
"That's literally it!"
"Are you saying that Mang Dao has become the son-in-law of the Gu family? No way, I haven't heard of that!"
"You don't even know this. It's been rumored for a long time that the Gu family has been trying to win over Mang Dao and is interested in forming a marriage alliance! You are really out of touch with the news!"
"I know about the intention of marriage, but it hasn't happened yet! It's something that both sides have discussed, and there's not even a single word on it!"
"So, Mang Dao is here!"
"You mean Mang Dao came here to discuss this matter? Is that true or false!?"
"Just wait and see! In a few days, the news will surely come out!"
"How can you be so sure? Do you have any inside information?!"
"Hey! I won't tell you!"
"."
Chen Pingan heard a lot of what everyone was saying, but he didn't care.
There have been clues about his marriage with the Gu family, and it is normal for it to spread outside.
But the man spoke with such certainty, I'm afraid he really has some inside information.
Speaking of which, he had mentioned this matter before when he was in the Canglongzhou Pacification Office and was dealing with Yin Yang King Ling Zhi.
Under the guidance of the Gu family's steward, Chen Ping'an quickly arrived at the quiet pavilion, and then under the guidance of the maid, he soon met Gu Qingchan.
I haven't seen you for more than half a month, but Gu Qingchan is still as stunning and charming as ever, with graceful manners and elegance in every move.
Well, if you ignore her somewhat childish face.
But it was also because of this that Gu Qingchan had an indescribable innocence, like the gurgling of a spiritual spring, which broke the elegance and dignity and added a bit of playfulness out of thin air.
If you consider her identity, this extreme contrast is hard to bear.
And from Chen Ping'an's spiritual perspective, the light blue mark between Gu Qingchan's eyebrows made her look like an empress looking down on the world, and it made all of this become an unspeakable fatal temptation.
Chen Pingan found that he couldn't look at Gu Qingchan too much now. Once he looked at her too much, his mind couldn't help but start to wander.
At first, Chen Pingan complained that it was a problem with his character, and that his ability to resist temptation was ridiculously low.
Gu Qingchan hasn't done anything yet, but he's already daydreaming. If someone really does something, he'll be blown away.
But later on, Chen Pingan gradually came to his senses.
If his ability to resist temptation was really so low, then he would not have been able to act like a gentleman in the cave in Sanqi Mountain.
In previous situations, he was able to resist with great willpower, but now the situation is different and he can't resist. No matter how you look at it, it's a bit unacceptable.
Obviously, there must be other reasons.
"Don't even think about it. If she finds out, it will be a huge trouble! Besides, whether it's troublesome or not is secondary. If this technique fails, that will be a huge loss." Chen Pingan's mood changed, and his thoughts were in a mess.
Looking at Gu Qingchan standing on the jade steps, he calmed himself down and bowed.
"Greetings, Senior Gu."
"Get up." Gu Qingchan's tender and crisp voice sounded, mixed with a hint of sweetness.
What are you doing!
Chen Pingan frowned secretly, the psychological defense he had built with great difficulty was almost broken.
He hurriedly gathered his thoughts, calmed the waves, and composed his mind.
When he raised his head again, his eyes were calm and his heart was as still as water.
Little Gu Qingchan, control it!
"Chen Ping'an, do you know why I asked you to come here this time?"
Gu Qingchan's eyes were bright as she looked down at Chen Ping'an standing on the jade steps.
"Please help me, Senior Gu. I don't know if it's safe."
Chen Pingan probably had some guesses in his mind, but in the uncertain situation, it was better to pretend to be confused at this time.
Gu Qingchan glanced at Chen Pingan, with a bit of scrutiny in her starry eyes. "Everyone says that Rough Knife acts recklessly and without regard for the consequences! I saw it today, but I didn't feel anything at all. I wonder why?"
ha?
Why talk about all this instead of getting straight to the point?
Just like last time, are you ready to hit me! ?
This little girl!
Is this how you repay your lifesaver?!
Chen Pingan felt helpless when he heard this.
He didn't come here to do anything unnecessary. He took the skills and went back to practice as soon as possible. In addition, Xue Kunsheng's matter was still waiting for him to deal with. After reporting the situation to the Canglongzhou Pacification Office, it was almost time for him to return to Beicang.
When the vest returns to the city later, there is still a time difference, which is a lot of things to do!
This little girl
No, this old lady is laughing and wasting his time!
Watch out, he'll hit her!
He thought to himself, but even though he was thinking this, there was no change in his expression.
He looked calm, and answered with a cupped hand: "Senior Gu is in front of me. Ping An knows his limits and dares not act rashly."
"Oh? When we met before, I didn't see your sense of propriety!? How can you talk about propriety?" Gu Qingchan raised her head slightly, her eyes like stars, looking at Chen Pingan quietly.
Gu Qingchan was talking about the last time they met, when Chen Pingan displayed a neither humble nor arrogant, and was confrontational, but he never had the sense of propriety and courage to act rashly as he said today.
"Looking back at the predecessors, the so-called sense of propriety is like flowing water, changing with the situation. In the previous incident, Ping An was forced by the situation, although his words were fierce, he also adhered to the way in his heart. Today, facing the predecessors, Ping An knows what respect is, so he dare not act rashly."
Chen Ping'an's answer was appropriate, but his thoughts were not necessarily so appropriate.
"You are very tactful and respectful, and you use it flexibly." Gu Qingchan chuckled with a hint of amusement on her face.
"Things in the world are always changing, and so is propriety. But no matter when, Ping'an's respect for his predecessors will never change." Chen Ping'an said calmly.
Respect?
Gu Qingchan didn't expect Chen Ping'an to be so thick-skinned. Her previous pride and confrontation were still fresh in her mind, but now she could have the word respect for her.
"Mang Dao, Mang Dao, you are so eloquent, and you really think I am a three-year-old child." Gu Qingchan's voice was as clear and pleasant as a spring.
Silver tongue?
good good!
Gu Qingchan, I think you are really going to get hit!
Next time I’ll let you act like a three-year-old child!
Chen Ping'an bowed his head, said he dared not, and stopped talking.
Fortunately, Gu Qingchan had no intention of continuing to embarrass Chen Pingan. She had asked Chen Pingan to come over today because she had some important matters to deal with.
After a few words, she got to the point and mentioned the matter of marriage.
Now that the marriage has been agreed upon, it is natural to finalize the status as soon as possible.
"Marriage certificate?" Chen Ping'an looked at the dazzling scarlet and golden Luan paper in his hand and asked in confusion.
He didn't expect that Gu Qingchan was so efficient and got the marriage certificate ready so quickly.
He had thought that for a large family like the Gu family, marriage would involve many procedures and red tape, and that the progress of this matter would be complicated and time-consuming.
I never thought that in just half a month, before anything was discussed in detail, the matter had already been finalized and the marriage certificate had been produced.
The Luan paper is painted with patterns of auspicious dragons and phoenixes, mandarin ducks playing in the water, and peonies blooming, which symbolize good luck, happiness and contentment.
Opening the Luan paper, the information about Chen Pingan and Gu Qingcheng had already been filled out, and some beautiful blessings and vows were written on the other side.
When two surnames are united in marriage and a contract is made together, a good relationship will last forever, and the couple will have the same name.
"The red string is tied early, and we will be together forever." Gu Qingchan smiled and said elegantly: "Chen Ping'an, congratulations, you are happily married!"
When she handed over the marriage certificate just now, she had already walked down the jade steps and was less than ten feet away from Chen Pingan.
With her martial arts level, there was no need for her to do so, but to show her respect, she chose to send him off personally.
"Thank you, Senior Gu." Chen Pingan bowed.
There were two copies of the marriage certificate. After Chen Pingan signed his name, he returned one copy to Gu Qingchan.
Gu Qingchan stretched out her hand gracefully, her wide sleeves fluttering lightly, and as she moved, they slowly slid down, revealing a pair of white wrists and hands that were whiter than snow. Her skin was as white as mutton-fat jade, so delicate that there was not a single flaw, and she had a subtle and elegant fragrance that was refreshing.
Chen Ping'an's eyes inadvertently fell on her fair wrist, and ripples appeared in his heart. He held his breath, focused his mind, and put aside all distracting thoughts.
Gu Qingchan raised her eyes slightly, as if she realized something.
"Chen Ping'an, you must keep this marriage certificate well."
"Ping'an understands." Chen Ping'an nodded in response.
Once the marriage certificate is completed, it becomes a certificate for both parties and also means that the marriage contract is officially finalized.
It is worth mentioning that the witness on the marriage certificate is Gu Qingchan. As an elder of the Gu family, Gu Qingchan witnessed the marriage between the younger generation of the family, Gu Qingcheng, and the Mangdao Chen Pingan.
Considering Gu Qingchan's current status, having her as a witness is a great honor for any couple.
A female grandmaster is an extremely transcendent existence even in the entire Canglong Province!
The marriage certificate was finalized, and Chen Pingan was expecting Gu Qingchan to mention the sword techniques and knife manuals. However, he waited for a long time and never heard Gu Qingchan mention it.
He was about to ask again, but saw Gu Qingchan had already raised her hand to see the guest off.
what's the situation?
Are you standing me up?
Chen Ping'an pondered in his heart, hesitated for a while, and finally did not ask.
What Gu Qingchan just talked about was the announcement of the marriage. As a large family, the Gu family would not be so hasty in announcing the marriage of the family's genius. Each link has its own agenda and different publicity rhythm.
After laying the groundwork and rendering the matter, the matter will be fully disclosed in a formal occasion.
According to the request of Gu Qingchan or the Gu family, Chen Pingan needs to stay in Canglongzhou City and cooperate with the Gu family to complete this task.
In addition, Gu Qingchan also mentioned the matter about Xue Kunsheng.
Given Gu Qingchan's current status, Xue Kunsheng's affairs, although a huge uproar for Beicang and the surrounding counties, were actually just that in her eyes.
The marriage is the most important thing. Just stay in Canglongzhou City with peace of mind. The Gu family will be there to talk to you over at the State Pacification Office.
Chen Pingan felt quite relieved when he heard these words from Gu Qingchan.
After Xue Kunsheng's death, he had no suitable reason to stay in Canglongzhou City, but he didn't expect that the Gu family would help him fill the gap.
Because of the marriage with the Gu family, he needs to stay in Canglongzhou City, which is a good reason.
Although the marriage contract is extremely important, under normal circumstances, the Canglongzhou Pacification Office may not give it face. However, this matter involves the Gu family. With the Gu family's prestige and reasonable reasons, the Canglongzhou Pacification Office will not have any objections.
Gu Qingchan did not elaborate on when the marriage would be fully announced to the public, but from what she said, it would probably take some time.
Chen Ping'an would stay in Canglongzhou for a while. This was also the reason why he did not ask about the sword manual in the end.
There was still time, so he could wait a little longer. When he couldn't wait any longer, he could ask Gu Qingchan what was going on.
As a great grandmaster, she wouldn't really forget what she promised him, right?
Chen Pingan thought in his heart, said goodbye, and left here quickly.
"Chen Ping'an, the Rough Knife."
Gu Qingchan frowned slightly and looked in the direction where Chen Pingan left.
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but when they were talking just now, she vaguely felt that Chen Pingan looked at her strangely, as if there was a hint of different meaning in his eyes.
The faint burning sensation made her feel unhappy, but the feeling was fleeting and she wasn't sure if it was directed at her, so she didn't show it. She just reminded Chen Pingan with a cold face to keep the marriage certificate safe.
I hope it's her illusion, otherwise
She was willing to teach Chen Pingan what respect for elders and juniors meant!
Although Mang Dao's sword was powerful, it was only a piece of cake in front of her.
The fundamental reason why this engagement was finalized so quickly was because of the Bi Cang County Prince's Mansion.
Since the family has already expressed its stance, we should implement the measures as soon as possible to avoid any further complications.
The fight for the throne is incredibly dangerous.
The Gu family will not get involved in this matter for the time being.
However, we must not slack off in the corresponding preparations.
There are some trends that you can't avoid even if you don't want to get involved! When the storm comes, if you don't respond adequately, the only outcome is that you will be involved.
In other words, the family affairs have been settled, and all the plans have been settled.
Where is her destiny?
Gu Qingchan's eyes were full of light and her gaze was deep, as if hiding some lingering feelings.
After leaving the Gu family, Chen Pingan was not idle. He went directly to the Canglongzhou Pacification Office.
With the Gu family's gilded rosewood carriage frame, he saved a lot of trouble when traveling.
Unlike the last time, this time, as soon as he walked to the door, he was greeted by everyone in unison.
"Your humble servants are here to greet Commander Chendu and respectfully welcome His Excellency."
Chen Ping'an nodded slightly, and under the awe-inspiring gazes of everyone, he strode into the Canglongzhou Pacification Office.
He had just walked into the gate when an old acquaintance came towards him. (End of this chapter)
