"Among them, only Wang Chong is suspicious."”"Oh right!" Hu Tiehua said. I don't think 'Wang Chong' is his real name.”Ji Bingyan said," Not only is this person's whereabouts a little mysterious, but his martial arts are also hidden. He must have a plan to hide his whereabouts like this."”Chu Liuxiang suddenly smiled. "Look at these people. Is this person the one with the highest martial arts?”"Is it not?" Ji Bingyan's eyes flickered.”
"I don't think it's him," Chu Liuxiang said.”"You," Ji Bingyan said. Who is it?" Chu Liuxiang smiled and said word by word,""Princess Pipa."
Hu Tiehua slapped her thigh again and said,"That's right." If she didn't know martial arts, she definitely wouldn't have such a good eye.
Chu Liuxiang said,"Moreover, she is even more secretive than Wang Chong. From the outside, she seems so weak that she can't even stand a gust of wind. If she didn't have a very deep understanding of her internal energy, how could she conceal her energy?"”
Hu Tiehua looked at the dome of the tent and suddenly smiled. " The beautiful princess beyond the Great Wall is actually a hidden martial arts expert. This is indeed very interesting, very interesting!" he muttered.”He raised his glass and downed it.
Suddenly, a dry cough came from outside the tent. Someone laughed and said,"Are the three of you still awake? I've come to pay my respects."
It was Wu Qingtian, one of the two heroes of the Wu family, who was famous for his 8864 Dragon Sword.
His face was full of smiles as he repeatedly apologized and made small talk. Chu Liuxiang and the other two couldn't guess his intentions, but this sword expert smiled and said,"As for my intentions, I'm afraid the three of you will never think of it.”"To be honest, we're guessing right now!" Hu Tiehua smiled.”
"Actually, I'm here on someone's request," Wu Qing Tian said with a smile.”
"Entrusted?" Hu Tiehua asked. Who asked you? Why did I ask you to come?"
Wu Qingtian smiled mysteriously and said,""I was entrusted by the Qiuci King to propose marriage to the three of you.”
When these words were said, even Ji Bingyan was startled and cried out involuntarily,"Propose?"
Hu Tiehua was already laughing so hard that he was swaying back and forth. He laughed loudly and said,"This wangye is truly wonderful beyond words. Could it be that he wants to recruit the three of us as his son-in-law?”
Wu Qingtian smiled." The one who proposed to you is naturally only one of the three. And this is not what Your Highness wants. It's the Eldest Princess herself who has secretly agreed to it when she saw it."”
After saying this, Ji Bingyan had already sat to the side. He knew that this princess would definitely not take a fancy to him, but Hu Tiehua immediately became somewhat nervous.
Although Chu Liuxiang's expression was calm, her eyes were glowing. Clearly, she was also somewhat nervous. Ji Bingyan watched coldly from the side, secretly laughing in her heart.
In the end, Hu Tiehua could not help but ask,"I wonder who this princess has taken a fancy to?”
When he spoke, his throat was actually a little dry. This did not mean that he wanted to be the Prince Consort, but he felt that if the princess did not like him, it would be a little embarrassing.
Wu Qingtian looked at him with a smile and said,""The person that the princess saw with her own eyes is precisely you.”
"Wonderful!" Chu Liuxiang smiled. Wonderful! This princess really had the eye to appreciate heroes.”
Although he sounded happy, he was actually a little jealous. Although he had a smile on his face, he was actually not feeling well in his heart. This did not mean that he was jealous.
He only felt a little disappointed, a little surprised, and a little embarrassed. He would never have thought that the princess had taken a fancy to him.
Hu Tiehua even flipped the wine glass in his hand. The wine splashed all over his body, but he did not notice it at all. He was extremely happy in his heart, but he pretended to be angry and said loudly,"Ridiculous! Ridiculous! How did she fall for me? Are you mistaken?"
"How could I be wrong about such a big matter?" Wu Qingtian smiled.”
Hu Tiehua glanced at Chu Liuxiang as if he was showing off, but he still said loudly,"You must be mistaken. Go back and ask again!”
" No need to ask," Wu Qingtian said." As long as you agree, I can go back to report."”
Hu Tiehua raised his glass to drink, only to realize that it was empty.
Ji Bingyan couldn't help but laugh." Such a big matter, how can it be decided so hastily? Your Excellency should also allow him to consider."”
Wu Qingtian pondered for a moment and said," If that's the case, I'll come back in an hour. You may not know this, but it's not that I'm anxious. It's that princess…Haha…"
He laughed as he retreated.
Chu Liuxiang looked at Hu Tiehua and smiled. Congratulations! You've been a bachelor for so many years, but you're actually waiting to be the emperor's son-in-law.”
Hu Tiehua laughed." Damn rooster, listen to this. It's rare for a woman to like me and not him. He's jealous."”He collapsed on the couch laughing, unable to speak.
This time, even Chu Liuxiang was suppressed by him. How could he not be happy?
"Me? Jealous?" Chu Liuxiang rubbed her nose.”
"I know you're not jealous, you're just feeling a little uncomfortable.”
Chu Liuxiang burst into laughter, and the three of them laughed together. This matter was truly absurd and wonderful, but it was also true.
Hu Tiehua panted and laughed." A person who even the little boss lady looked down on in the wine suddenly caught the eye of a princess. Isn't this like a big pie falling from the sky?"”
Chu Liuxiang smiled." Look at how proud he is. Why don't we call Wu Qingtian in now? Otherwise, the two of them will be anxious from waiting."”
Hu Tiehua suddenly jumped up and said,"No!"
"Why not?" Chu Liuxiang was startled. Don't you agree?"
Hu Tiehua stopped laughing and glared at him."Of course I won't agree."
Chu Liuxiang asked curiously," You look so happy, and you've long fallen for that princess. When she poured wine for you, you almost melted to the bones. Why don't you agree now?"”
Hu Tiehua said," To be honest, I do like that princess a little. If she doesn't like me, I might be even more disappointed than the old bug. But if she really wants to marry me, I can't."”
"Why not?" Chu Liuxiang asked.”
"No means no." Hu Tiehua said anxiously.”
Ji Bingyan said leisurely," I think he's probably acting up again. Other people don't like him, but he's like a fly that sees blood, pinning them down. Other people like him, but he wants to put on airs instead.”
"Only a grandson would be interested in that," Hu Tiehua said anxiously."I'm just…just…"
The more anxious he was, the more speechless he became.
"But what?"”
"Think about it. How can someone like me marry a princess?" Hu Tiehua was sweating profusely. Can I support her? If you want me to obediently follow her and be her husband, then I won't be able to do it even if I die.”
"You're thinking too far ahead, but our problem is now." Chu Liuxiang laughed.”
Ji Bingyan said," That's right. He's so generous. If you don't agree, our plan will fail. I think you must agree no matter what.”
"If you force me, I'll have to escape!" Hu Tiehua roared.”
"With Chu Liuxiang and I here, can you escape?" Ji Bingyan smiled.”
Hu Tiehua jumped up." This is my marriage," he said." Why are you forcing me?" Are you still my old friends? You guys…you guys are simply betraying your friends for glory.”
Chu Liuxiang and Ji Bingyan looked at each other. Chu Liuxiang suddenly stood up and said,"Since that's the case, I'll go and reject him!”
Ji Bingyan sighed." This is originally a matter between the three of us. Since he is unwilling to think for his friend, what can we do? It's fine if we are chased away by him tomorrow.”
Chu Liuxiang sighed." I just feel a little pity for him…A beautiful princess that can topple a country, and a martial arts expert that hides her true strength. If he doesn't want such a wife, it would be strange if he doesn't regret it for the rest of his life.”
Hu Tiehua was stunned by the duo's singing.
Chu Liuxiang shook her head and walked out, muttering,"I pity that sentimental princess. I wonder how sad she would be when she heard this?”
Hu Tiehua suddenly shouted again,"Take care."”
Chu Liuxiang said,"Why don't you walk slowly? Wouldn't it be better to let her die early?"”
Hu Tiehua puffed out his chest." I've thought about it for a long time. I've decided to sacrifice myself for my friend. After all, we've been friends for so many years.”
Chu Liuxiang winked at Ji Bingyan, but also said loudly,"No! No! Marriage is a lifelong event. As friends, how can we let you sacrifice yourself? I'd better reject them!”
As he spoke, he walked out again.
However, Hu Tiehua had already pulled him back and said with a smile,"Other than that, there are…"
"What else do you have?" Chu Liuxiang pretended not to understand.”
Hu Tiehua scratched his head and stuttered,""I think, although marrying a princess is troublesome, it's much less troublesome than going around in circles in the desert. Besides, I…I really can't bear to make her sad.”
He said it in a serious manner, but the others had already burst out laughing.
Ji Bingyan smiled." I already knew about this problem of yours. You don't take a toast, but you always have to drink the hard way."”
A person outside the tent smiled and said,"What do you mean by doing it the hard way? I'm just waiting for the wedding banquet!”
Although it was late at night, the tents were still lit up.
The stone camel was still with his camels. He took care of them carefully, as if he could only forget the pain in his heart when he took care of others.
And who in the world would want to be cared for by this ugly, strange, and crippled man? He could only place this pair of warm hands on the beast.
Now, the camels were all asleep, but he was still sitting there in a daze. Under the starry sky, there sat such a lonely, lonely person.
How miserable was this scene? However, he was not completely alone at the moment. Not far away, there was someone who was staring at him in a daze, and he had been paying attention for a long time.
Shi Tuo naturally didn't notice, but Chu Liuxiang did. As soon as he stepped out of the tent, he noticed Wang Chong staring at Shi Tuo.
Wang Chong was truly a mysterious figure.
Why would he pay so much attention to a crippled shepherd? Chu Liuxiang frowned and was about to walk over, but Wang Chong had also noticed her and immediately began to walk away. Chu Liuxiang still wanted to chase after him and ask what was going on.
He had just taken a few steps when he suddenly heard a bell-like laughter.
An oriole-like voice said with a smile,""Didn't you want to sleep for a long time? How did you become the Night Wandering God?"
Chu Liuxiang didn't need to turn around to know that this was Princess Pipa.
He forced a smile and said,"I'm afraid there's more than one God of Night here, right?"”
Princess Pipa giggled." I don't care about the others. You're not sleeping in the middle of the night. Are you trying to peek at me bathing again?"”
Chu Liuxiang coughed dryly and said," I might have had this intention, but there are too many Night Wandering Gods now. I'd better go to sleep."”He did not turn back. He spoke as he walked.
"Hey…come back." Princess Pipa sighed.”
Chu Liuxiang sighed and could only stop and slowly turn her head.
Under the starlight, her eyes were as bright as the Milky Way, but her beautiful face had a coquettish expression. She pouted and glared at Chu Liuxiang,"Let me ask you, why are you ignoring me?”
Chu Liuxiang seemed to have a bitter taste in her mouth. She smiled bitterly and said,"How can I ignore Princess? However, since there's nothing else, I still want to go to sleep.”
Princess Pipa's eyes widened.""Who says I have nothing to do with you?"
Under the starlight, her gauze clothes were so white that they seemed to be transparent. Her face, her hands, her head…also seemed to be so white that they were transparent under the starlight.
Ba Lian's merciless wind seemed to become exceptionally gentle here, gently blowing her clothes.
She seemed to have turned into a fairy made of crystal.
Chu Liuxiang's heart suddenly jumped. Although he was desperately trying to control himself, he still couldn't help but think of the sunset. Under the setting sun, in the pool, that beautiful body that was like a blooming hibiscus, that string of crystal clear water droplets flowing across her crystal clear chest.
He felt that he was committing a crime. He could only cough hard and say in a particularly loud voice,"Princess, is there anything you need from me?"
Princess Pipa bit her lips and suddenly smiled.
The starlight in the sky seemed to become even more brilliant at this moment.
Princess Pipa smiled sweetly." I just wanted to ask you, why do people call you old bug?"”
The starlight was so gentle, the night wind was so gentle, and her eyes were as gentle as water. Chu Liuxiang was neither a saint nor a fool.
However, just a moment ago, this beautiful princess had already arranged a marriage with his best friend. Why did she have to look for him now?
Chu Liuxiang could only rub his nose desperately. He really had nothing to say.
Princess Pipa's eyes still refused to let go of him.
Chu Liuxiang could only lower her head, but she saw a pair of bare, fair, and exquisite ankles under the clothes that were blown by the breeze.
"Why didn't you say what I asked you?" Princess Pipa asked gently.”
Chu Liuxiang smiled helplessly and said,"You shouldn't have asked me that, right? Whoever called my name should be asked, right?”
Princess Pipa tilted her head and thought for a moment, as if she had not guessed the meaning behind his words. At this moment, the matchmaker, Wu Qingtian, hurried over.
Chu Liuxiang heaved a sigh of relief and laughed loudly,"Has Brother Wu succeeded?"
Wu Qingtian smiled." I have already replied to His Highness. His Highness is very happy. Although he knows that the three of you are tired from the journey, he is so happy that he has to chat with the three of you."”
Chu Liuxiang smiled." That's fine. It's such a joyous day. We can't sleep anyway."”
He glanced at Princess Pipa unintentionally. His meaning was very obvious, but Princess Pipa still didn't understand. She curled her lips at him and said with a smile,""No matter what you say, I have to ask this question. You can't escape.”She turned around lightly and flew away.
Chu Liuxiang was stunned. She really didn't understand what she meant. Wu Qingtian laughed." Since that's the case, His Highness has prepared some wine for the night in his tent. Let's invite the three of you over. The matchmaker's legs are already broken from running. This cup of wine must be drunk."”
Inside the tent, the candles were shining brightly.
Princess Pipa was leaning against her father, pouring wine for him. She saw Chu Liuxiang. Ji Bingyan and Hu Tiehua entered and pursed their lips into a smile.
Hu Tiehua's face turned red.
He really didn't expect this bride-to-be to actually dare to show her face in front of others, and he didn't expect his future wife to be ten times more generous than him.
"You're here, good!" King Buzz laughed. Good! The dishes are hot, sit down and have a drink."Please sit down. The future son-in-law should first greet his father-in-law.”
Princess Pipa actually smiled and said,"Yes!" Kneel down and kowtow."
Hu Tiehua never dreamed that she would make a joke out of him. He had always thought that his skin was thicker than the city walls, but now it was as red as a piece of red cloth.
Chu Liuxiang and Ji Bingyan gave each other a look and pushed him lightly from behind.
Hu Tiehua fell to his knees with a thud, his face red to the point of his neck.
"Good!" King Buzz laughed. Good! Good!"
He said seven or eight 'good' words in a row and took out a gem that was as big as a pigeon's egg and flowed with green light from his pocket. He gave it to Hu Tiehua and smiled."This is a heavenly stone. It's auspicious to wear it.”
Under the light, the gemstone's radiance flowed continuously. Even though Hu Tiehua did not know much about the gemstone, he could tell that it was priceless. With a red face, he mumbled,"How can I accept such a generous gift?"
Chu Liuxiang smiled." This is a gift from Old Mount Tai. If you don't accept it, it's disrespectful. You should accept it!"”
However, he knew what was good for him. With a glance, he could tell that this gem was the extremely rare cat-eye gem in the Central Plains. Its value was no less than that of the Blissful Star.
This Qiuci King casually gave such a precious thing to others, so why did he take the whereabouts of the 'Star of Bliss' so seriously? Although Chu Liuxiang still had a smile on her face, her heart was filled with doubts.
Suddenly, a young girl with bright eyes and a sweet smile walked out from behind. She knelt on the ground and muttered a few words like an oriole. Others could not understand the strange language of Qiuci.
The King of Qiuci stroked his beard and smiled." The Princess Consort's illness has improved. It's good to let her come out and sit."”Wu Baiyun, the second hero of the Wu Family's Two Heroes, smiled and said,""Could it be that wangfei also wants to come out to see her son-in-law?”
"That's right. She's been bedridden for a long time, but she's able to come out today. Could this be what the people of the Central Plains call a rush of joy?"”
Amidst the laughter, there were already a few young girls in embroidered clothes. They held onto a long dress that dragged along the ground. Their hair was slightly messy, and their bearing was noble. They were beautiful women who could not be compared to ordinary people. They slowly walked out.
Her starry eyes were slightly dizzy, and her face was still somewhat sickly, but it added a bit of charm. Although she was not young, she still looked radiant and beautiful.
Everyone could not help but lower their heads, not daring to look at each other.
Only Chu Liuxiang felt that since the heavens had created such a stunning beauty, if one couldn't appreciate it, not only would one fail to live up to the heavens 'good intentions, but one would also be torturing oneself.
Princess Pipa had already walked over with a smile. The Qiuci King also stood up and said,"Hurry up and help wangfei sit down. Hurry up…why aren't the stones outside pulled up?”
This flirtatious Qiuci King obviously loved his princess to the extreme, as if he was afraid that she would suddenly leave in the wind.
Princess Biao Zi sat down gracefully. Although she did not move, her eyes were filled with a myriad of emotions that made it difficult for one to breathe.
Princess Pipa pointed at Hu Tiehua and laughed."It's him!" Hu Tiehua felt all the blood in his body rush to his head.
"Good!" Princess Biao Zi said sweetly. Very good!"
She stretched out her slender, jade-like hand and waved it, and the young girl behind her came over with a jade plate. The jade plate shone brightly, and it was unknown how many treasures were on it.
Princess Pipa smiled." This is from my mother. Take it!"”
This time, not only did Hu Tiehua not dare to decline, he could not even say anything polite.
