I grew up wearing boys' clothes, catching fish, climbing trees, and being mischievous, but they never cared.
"They're only teaching me these rules because they want me to be chosen by the palace."
Tang Yu finally understood the cause and effect of the matter. Originally, her aunt and uncle had already chosen an honest and reliable son-in-law for her cousin.
This unexpected turn of events only proves that the situation has become very serious.
The couple had no other way to protect their daughter.
"Since they are all Jianghu forces, why not pledge allegiance to Wufeng?"
Tang Yu felt that the martial arts sects in this world didn't really distinguish between good and evil; they all seemed pretty crazy.
"I asked that question too, but my father told me that although Wufeng's power has grown stronger over the years, an organization like assassins will never amount to much and will eventually be eliminated."
Choosing to side with Wu Feng now will only bring utter destruction to the family in the future!
My uncle's idea makes some sense.
In a normal world, assassin organizations would be like rats in the shadows.
The key problem is that the imperial power in this world has weakened, and the royal relatives and nobles are living a life of decadence and disregard the chaos in the martial arts world.
Therefore, Tang Yu felt that the Wufeng force could probably hold out for a few more years.
"So how do you want me to help you? Run away from the wedding? But running away will offend the palace, won't it?"
Yuan Xin had long planned to elope, but the consequences would be severe, so she could only think about it.
"The palace gates cannot bear the crime, nor can Wu Feng!"
So, for the past two weeks, I've been so worried that my hair is falling out in clumps every morning when I wake up. I'm only 18 years old, but I feel like I'm going to go bald.
Cousin, you've always been smart, can you help me think of a way?
Tang Yu had heard of the process of selecting brides at the palace gates; a large number of brides were sent in, but only a small number were actually selected.
Just like selecting goods, the success rate is not high.
"How about we take a gamble and you get eliminated?"
"What if I get selected?"
These words instantly made Tang Yu laugh.
“Then I’ll dig a tunnel for you so you can sneak out to travel, occasionally meet up with your ex-lover, and otherwise behave like a proper lady.”
Upon hearing this, Yuan Xin was speechless.
"Cousin, I'm not kidding! I'm really begging you for help. This concerns my life's happiness."
I would never want to be locked up in the palace gates for the rest of my life.
Tang Yu thought carefully about the rumors circulating in the martial arts world about the palace gates, and she came up with a plan.
"Cousin, I've actually thought of a way, but we have to keep it a secret from Aunt and Uncle..."
Tang Yu's solution was simple: she would go on behalf of her cousin.
When the time comes, you'll either be eliminated or fake your death; there are too many methods.
Yuan Xin was so moved that she cried.
“Cousin, ever since we fell off a cliff together when we were little, and you were able to fly, I knew that nothing in this world could trouble you.”
Tang Yu ignored her cousin's mushy words. After all, her aunt and uncle had raised her with great care, so she definitely had to help them out.
So, on the day the bride was taken away by people sent from the palace gates.
Tang Yu and Yuan Xin switched places.
It was a long journey, and after reaching the vicinity of the Old Dust Valley, the palace gate was in sight.
Seeing a group of brides-to-be dressed in wedding attire, Tang Yu rolled her eyes speechlessly.
With so many brides, selecting only a few to keep is too inefficient.
If she were a palace maid, he would marry her as a man with three wives and four concubines.
I don't know why, but there's even an elimination system.
However, Tang Yu's shock had only just begun.
Before she could discover the secrets inside the palace gates, the guards arrested all the brides and threw them into the dungeon.
Tang Yu: "..."
Her hands were itching; if the palace guards dared to use torture, she wouldn't mind creating a survival crisis for the palace.
I only watched the beginning before, and only after finishing it today did I realize that the ending was terrible and that it left a huge plot hole that wasn't filled. I still need to work out the world-building myself.
Chapter 2 Cloud Feathers 2
The dungeon was dark and damp, and a group of brides were locked in several rooms, with no one explaining why they were imprisoned.
This was the first time Tang Yu had ever lived in such a dirty place in her life.
It's a little annoying.
Several brides started making a fuss, questioning why they were being treated this way, but no one paid them any attention.
Having traveled all over the country over the years, Tang Yu now vaguely guessed the reason.
There must be something wrong with this batch of brides.
After all, she herself is an imposter.
It's entirely possible that a few more imposters will appear among the other brides.
So, could she escape during the chaos?
Or perhaps they're using this as an excuse to cause trouble?
Tang Yu pondered several plans in his mind, waiting for the palace gate's next move.
Around midnight, footsteps began to approach.
All the brides instantly became excited; finally, someone had arrived.
Tang Yu looked up and saw a handsome young man.
Judging from their clothing, the other party was definitely not an ordinary palace guard.
Could they be members of the Gong family?
The boy spoke up as soon as the question arose.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you."
Tang Yu almost burst out laughing. Even if they were direct descendants of the Gong family, they didn't have the right to let all the suspected brides go, did they?
She was curious about how the next scene would go, and one of the brides chimed in with her question.
"What the hell is going on?"
“Among you brides, there is one who is a sniper without a blade.”
When the boy gave this answer, the group of brides were shocked. Some of them asked, "What is Wufeng?"
Someone immediately explained that Wufeng was an assassin organization that had dominated the martial arts world for decades, and currently only the Gongmen could rival it.
Tang Yu glanced at the silly-looking bride a few more times, surprised that she was unaware of such a thing.
At this point, the boy revealed his plan.
"Wu Feng is an assassin organization that secretly infiltrated the palace with malicious intent!"
"After Lord Zhiren learned that there was a spies among you, in order to protect the entire Miyako family, you will all be executed."
After delivering this shocking statement, the young man looked at the group of frightened brides and continued speaking.
"Crying won't help. If you want to live, come with me now, and I'll let you out."
The play is too fake; Tang Yu's assessment of the palace's strength has dropped another level.
One bride even posed a profound question.
"They just called you Young Master Yu. You are the young master of the Feather Palace, the son of Zhi Ren. Your father wanted to harm us, but you wanted to save us. Who would believe such a thing!"
Yes, where in the world would you find such a good thing?
How can this matter be resolved if the assassin isn't found?
But Young Master Yu spoke up indifferently.
"I am neither a swordsman nor a young master, which is why I show mercy to women..."
Tang Yu wanted to keep a low profile, but after hearing what the other person said, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
In an instant, everyone's attention was drawn to her, and the door lock had already been opened.
Gong Ziyu glanced at Tang Yu several times before continuing what he hadn't finished saying.
"You only get one chance. Whether you want to come with me or not is the choice!"
With that, Gong Ziyu led a group of brides out.
Tang Yu did not hesitate and followed directly behind the group of brides.
Then, Gong Ziyu deliberately walked over to Tang Yu's side.
Why did you laugh just now, young lady?
Tang Yu looked into those clear and simple eyes, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud again.
That smile, like a beautifully blooming peach blossom, brushed against Gong Ziyu's heart without warning.
The lake, which was frozen solid, suddenly cracked open with the surging spring water, and the dormant emotions in my heart were quietly awakened in an instant.
Before he could even think, his body reacted first.
Gong Ziyu grabbed Tang Yu's wrist.
"What is Young Master Yu doing?"
