Chapter 285 Untitled
"Xiao Yu, you look like someone."
Chu Zhao said this while playing chess.
Compared to Zhao Yuzhen's slow moves, Xiao Yu's moves were extremely fast, with almost no thinking.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that Zhao Yuzhen had a huge advantage in the previous game.
If the situation was one-sided before, it is now probably fifty-fifty.
Xiao Yu's speed of placing the pieces also slowed down, and he placed one piece slowly: "Who is Uncle Chu talking about?"
"Xiao Xie."
To some extent, Xiao Yu is really very similar to Xiao Xie.
Both of them do things by any means necessary and have a deep obsession with the throne, but Xiao Yu is much smarter than Xiao Xie.
Xiao Yu was stunned: "Uncle Chu, do you mean that I will lose too?"
He naturally knew Xiao Xie, the leader of the Rebellion of the Eight Kings.
At the same time, he is also a loser.
Now that Chu Zhao suddenly mentioned Xiao Xie, it was hard for him not to think in this direction.
"You've already lost." Chu Zhao placed a piece down, announcing that Xiao Yu's dragon was slaughtered.
"Uncle Chu is an excellent chess player. I am no match for you."
Xiao Yu complimented him but he was speechless in his heart. He didn't believe that Chu Zhao didn't understand what he meant.
"From your chess skills, you are a tyrant. However, I don't like to judge people by their chess skills, because it is not always accurate. But what I can tell you is that the people in Wangcheng Mountain are all Taoists. Taoists believe in tranquility and inaction."
Chu Zhao picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly. "I know why you came here, and I also know what you are worried about. You can rest assured about this. Since the death of your grandfather Xiao Chongjing and Zhenxi Hou Baili Luochen, I have no interest in you Beili. You can go back to your parents, or go to Muliang City to find your master for verification. By the way, speaking of your mother, she should have told you about my relationship with Xiao Chuhe."
Xiao Yu nodded, his tone a little serious: "I did."
"So I won't interfere in your affairs, but Xiao Chuhe can't be in trouble, do you understand?"
"I understand. What if... I mean what if I take that position." Xiao Yu said, raising his hand and swearing, "I will never touch a hair of Sixth Brother, otherwise I will be struck by lightning."
Chu Zhao nodded: "Before your second brother came up the mountain, I gave him a sword technique, which is a gift from me as an elder. I am not a person who favors one over the other, so I will give you a technique now as well."
After saying that, Chu Zhao raised his hand and a secret book floated in front of Xiao Yu.
There were five big words written on the cover - Acalanatha.
"I think you have heard of this Acala Vidyaraja Kung Fu. This martial art is called a demonic art because it is the most violent and fierce martial art in the world. It is also the most likely to cause harm to yourself and others. It often injures yourself by 1,000 and the enemy by 1,200. The deeper you practice it, the easier it is to go astray. You can decide whether to practice it or not."
"Thank you, Uncle Chu!"
Xiao Yu didn't hesitate and, like Xiao Chong, accepted it as if it were a treasure.
"By the way, I will not interfere in your Beili affairs. I am only speaking on my own behalf. If you have nothing else to do, just go down the mountain." Chu Zhao waved his hand.
Xiao Yu stood up and bowed respectfully: "I am sorry to bother you, Uncle Chu, and I will take my leave."
In fact, he wanted to use his mother to build relationships.
But he didn't dare.
After all, if you anger Chu Zhao, you will suffer the consequences.
But then again, this trip to Wangcheng Mountain has been quite fruitful.
Not only did he obtain a secret manual of peerless martial arts, but he also confirmed one thing, that is, King Bai did not have the support of Uncle Chu.
This made Xiao Yu breathe a sigh of relief.
As for the sixth brother... as long as Chu Zhao does not interfere in their Beili court, what kind of trouble can a commoner cause?
The Apocalypse City today is no longer the Apocalypse of the past.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty."
After leaving Qingyunju and coming to a deserted place, Yansen immediately bowed and congratulated him.
Xiao Yu nodded, his voice full of joy: "This trip to Wangcheng Mountain is worth it. I heard that Wangcheng Mountain is building a large-scale project and donated 100,000 taels of silver in the name of this king."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Long Xie bowed and accepted the order.
"I heard that my second brother visited several princes of the Chu State and General Ye Xiaoying?"
Long Xie hummed: "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"
"If he can win the support of Chu, then I can do the same." Xiao Yu smiled, then his face became serious: "By the way, have the people who were sent out been withdrawn?"
"Since we learned about Yue Ji's wedding with the Second Prince of Chu, we withdrew our troops." Long Xie replied.
"That woman is lucky."
Xiao Yu was a little angry, but also a little relieved.
He was thankful that the people he sent out at the beginning failed to find Yue Ji who had already entered Chu, otherwise he would not dare to go up the mountain today, let alone have the opportunity now.
Upon hearing this, Long Xie and Yan Sen both nodded in agreement.
It was indeed good luck. Who could have thought that an orphan girl from the Jianghu would be favored by the Prince of Chu and married as his principal wife.
Even the storybook didn't dare to write this, but Yueji encountered it.
Afterwards, like Xiao Chong, Xiao Yu went to meet the brothers of the Chu family on the mountain.
But the difference is that he did not see Ye Xiaoying.
No one knew what Xiao Yu said to the Chu brothers. All we knew was that when they went down the mountain, Xiao Yu was in high spirits.
Not long after Xiao Yu left, it was time for Chu Ye and Ye Ruoyi's wedding.
The two did not hold a grand wedding, nor did they invite any outside guests.
But the scene of hundreds of Taoists on Wangcheng Mountain, each riding on golden lions to welcome the bride, was also very shocking and spectacular.
Compared to ordinary people's weddings, Taoist weddings are naturally different.
The person who presided over the wedding was naturally Tianshi Zhao Yuzhen, who was wearing a purple Taoist robe and holding a jade scepter.
In addition to the regular kneeling at weddings, there is also the worship of the jade sceptre, as well as the marriage certificate oath and so on.
A marriage certificate is presented to the heavenly court.
It sounds like the heavens above, and the underworld below.
It is known to all saints and is applicable to the three realms. It is witnessed by all the heavenly masters, with heaven and earth as its mirrors, and the sun and the moon as its heart.
If you betray a beautiful woman, you would be deceiving Heaven. If a beautiful woman betrays you, it would be against Heaven's will. You will be erased from the Three Realms and will never be reincarnated.
Follow the will of Heaven, accept the union of Earth, obey the wishes of parents, follow the covenant of newlyweds, become companions, become one family, swear an oath, love each other for a lifetime, live happily together for a hundred years, and respect each other like guests.
Most people would not dare to take this oath, which is almost a life-and-death pledge.
Fortunately, both of them are not ordinary people.
……
Inside Xueyue City, Tang Lian sat on the porch under the eaves, holding a silk handkerchief in her hand and giggling from time to time.
Sikong Changfeng was holding a piece of melon. The melon was naturally a gift from his daughter. A trip to Wangcheng Mountain not only helped his daughter find a good master, but also allowed him to eat the melon from her master. It was indeed as sweet as honey.
While chewing, he quietly approached Tang Lian.
He stuck his head out and took a look.
I saw the words embroidered on the silk handkerchief: The heart of the lotus is hidden in the pistil, and the flowering season is missed in vain.
Ahem, of course it won’t be this sentence, but just two simple words.
Lotus and core!
There is also a beautiful lotus embroidered next to it.
Sikong Changfeng finished the melon in a few bites and patted Tang Lian on the shoulder, which scared Tang Lian so much that she almost fell off the railing.
"Xiao Lian, what are you thinking about sitting here? I called you several times but you didn't hear me."
Tang Lian hurriedly hid the silk handkerchief behind her: "Third Master, you, you want to talk to me about something?" "I don't have anything to say, but you, why are you so distracted?"
On the 18th day of the first lunar month, Tiannvrui was also invited to attend the wedding of Yuekang and Yueji. It was at that time that Tiannvrui gave this silk handkerchief to Tang Lian.
Tang Lian did not answer, but said a little embarrassedly: "Third Master, I want to go out for a while."
"Go to San Gucheng?"
Tang Lian became more and more embarrassed, and nodded with a red face: "Yes."
Unexpectedly, Sikong Changfeng slapped Tang Lian again, which frightened Tang Lian again.
"That's right!
You are not a child anymore, there are some things that need to be done quickly.
As someone who has been through this, I have to give you some advice.
Don't learn from your master and be shy in relationships. Otherwise, Chu Zhao might not have taken advantage of you back then, and you wouldn't be without a master's wife now."
Sikong Changfeng's face flashed with a trace of reminiscence, and he smiled and said, "This woman is just like this flower, the blooming period is so long, don't keep the girl waiting for too long.
I think that girl is very good, she is affectionate and loyal, and has a good family business. She is totally worthy of you.
If Tang Lianyue doesn't agree, don't worry, I will go talk to him in person."
Tang Lian waved her hands quickly: "Third Master, no need, Master Lianyue won't care about these."
"That's it, you have to hurry up and do this."
Tang Lian nodded and asked curiously, "Third Master, from what you said just now, between Senior Chu and Master...was it Senior Chu who took advantage of the situation and snatched my original Master's Wife?"
"I didn't say that, don't spread it around."
Looking at Sikong Changfeng's expression, Tang Lian felt that she had guessed it almost right. When she was about to ask if it was Yue Yao, a chill suddenly came over her.
Tang Lian quickly stood up and bowed, "Second Master!"
Li Hanyi nodded: "Don't speculate. Your master was just wishful thinking back then. Go and do your own thing."
"Yes."
Sikong Changfeng watched Tang Lian walk away and immediately put on a different expression.
"Oh, Second Brother is back. You must have worked hard on the journey. Please take a seat."
Li Hanyi glared at him and said, "You don't even know the emotional entanglement between them, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"I was wrong, I was wrong." Sikong Changfeng smiled awkwardly.
"It's good to know. If you dare to talk nonsense again, be careful that he will beat you up."
Sikong Changfeng nodded, put away his playful smile, and said seriously: "I received news that there seems to be a big move in the State of Chu. Did you hear anything on Wangcheng Mountain?"
Li Hanyi was stunned for a moment, then replied, "King Bai and King Chi went up the mountain. King Bai also talked to several brothers from the Chu family. I think King Chi also looked for them. It is probably related to this matter."
"What is Chu Zhao's attitude?"
"Uncle Chu is still the same as before and doesn't interfere in Beili's affairs."
"He doesn't get involved, but that doesn't mean his sons won't get involved. Otherwise, he wouldn't have allowed the White King and the Red King to see his sons. I'm afraid the world will be in chaos again." Sikong Changfeng sighed, "What do you think? Lei Wujie has been working very hard recently and hasn't come down from Cangshan Mountain."
Li Hanyi sighed softly: "I have always felt guilty for leaving him alone in Leijiabao all these years. I am an incompetent sister and I don't want to involve him, so I wanted him to become Uncle Chu's disciple, but unfortunately..."
Sikong Changfeng shook his head and said, "Some things cannot be changed by your will.
Don't forget that he had been involved with the Prince of Yong'an long before he met you.
Perhaps, this is what is called fate.
Your mother died for the sake of King Langya..."
Li Hanyi remained silent.
She and Lei Wujie's mother is Li Xinyue, the heir of Jianxin Tomb who robbed the execution ground for King Langya, and is also the Azure Dragon Envoy of the Four Guardians of Apocalypse.
Now the Azure Dragon Token has been passed to her, but Li Hanyi is very clear that this mission will ultimately fall on Lei Wujie.
This is a past event, but also a vow and a responsibility.
For people of the world, once a promise is made, nothing can stop it.
Some things have to be done by someone.
Sikong Changfeng did not delve into the topic of Li Hanyi's mother and sighed deeply.
"Now, the chess game with our four northern cities as the chessboard has begun, and the situation in which all of us are chess pieces has been determined.
Don’t call them juniors. Even you and I are just pawns on this chessboard.”
In fact, Sikong Changfeng’s situation is the same as Li Hanyi’s.
He had been waiting for that person to appear, because he knew very well that only when that person appeared would the game of chess truly begin.
So, when the person he was waiting for appeared, he accepted him as his apprentice.
Xiao Se, also known as Xiao Chuhe, the Prince of Yong'an, is the sixth prince of Beili, who was trained by the late Xiao Ruofeng, the Prince of Langya.
Li Hanyi was silent for a moment, then sighed, "I understand what you said, I just hope that they can face these things later.
It’s just that… Uncle Chu suddenly abdicated and joined Beili. I’m afraid that the chess game of Beili Tianxia is no longer under our control.”
"Control?"
Sikong Changfeng shook his head and smiled slightly: "Where in the world is there a chess game controlled by chess pieces?
However, Chu Zhao is indeed a big variable, but it is beneficial to us, isn't it?
Although he said that he would not interfere in our Beili affairs, he is Xiao Se's uncle after all, and has close relations with our Xueyue City.
No matter how you look at it, the advantage is on us.
This game of chess is worth playing!"
For a moment, Sikong Changfeng was filled with heroic spirit. He stood up, flipped up his wide sleeves, and took out a small melon.
"Second Senior Brother, do you want to eat some melon? This is what Qianluo got from Chu Zhao. It's very sweet. I don't know where Chu Zhao got it from."
Li Hanyi laughed angrily, glared at him, and put on his mask.
"Keep it for yourself and eat it slowly.
By the way, Qianluo will probably be back soon."
"Qian Luo is coming back?" Sikong Changfeng was delighted, and then raised his eyebrows: "Is it because Chu Zhao wants to propose marriage to his nephew? Yes, that's for sure. As his disciple, Qian Luo should come with him."
Suddenly, a sword energy flashed across.
Sikong Changfeng was startled and quickly took the melon to block in front of him.
With a swish, the melon split into two halves.
He carefully poked his head out from behind the melon, only to find that Li Hanyi had already flown up.
"Stop talking nonsense, just eat your melon!"
Sikong Changfeng shrank his neck and murmured, "Tsk tsk, still so fierce, I wonder if that Taoist swordsman has become stupid from practicing Taoism."
"If you keep talking nonsense, come with me to Cangshan to practice swordsmanship."
"Haha, take care, Second Brother, come back later."
Sikong Changfeng waved his hand to make sure that Li Hanyi had left. The smile on his face slowly disappeared. He put his hands behind his back and looked at the sky through the eaves.
There are winds and clouds surging, clouds rolling and unrolling.
"Although we have the advantage of being far away from the world, the power of the world lies in the west, not in the north."
Sikong Changfeng sighed.
But soon, he laughed again.
"I am only the mayor of Xueyue City. Let the emperors of various countries play the chess game. I will just eat my melon..."
