Feng Qing-Murong Ze (1)
chapter XXIX
That night, Yiwen and Yiwu really returned safely. Other than me, everyone in the family was very happy. I pulled a long face and glared at Murong Cang. That guy immediately acted weak and covered his wound. I swallowed all the anger that was about to explode. It was very depressing!
Yi Wu had indeed returned to the small building in the middle of the lake where Du Yunyan and Murong Cang had met that day, but she did not see anyone.
However, when she was leaving, she was attacked. Yi Wu did not see Du Yunyan because the place was already empty. It was said that it was Du Yunyan's private room, but it was just one of the three burrows of a cunning rabbit. Du Yunyan's words were very different from Yi Wu's.
Therefore, it was only natural that Yiwu was attacked. It was just that Murong Cang had long expected it. The use of the Golden Cicada Shedding Shell was not bad. Yiwen going out to look for it was just a feint.
"Your Highness, Princess Consort, the results of Yiwu's investigation are exactly as Your Highness expected. The big boss behind the House of Red Sleeves is indeed Young Master Feng Qing, but it has nothing to do with Luori City. It seems to be Young Master Feng Qing's personal property.”
Although Yi Wu had returned safely, she was in a sorry state. It seemed that it was not that easy to escape. Fortunately, Yiwen's timely mission was successfully completed.
Murong Cang nodded approvingly and gestured for them to sit. They would never have dared to do this a few months ago, but now they were all led astray by Azurepeak.
"Did you give yourself away?"
"Replying to your highness, no. According to your instructions, there was no mistake.”Yi Wu said and looked at me a little timidly. I turned around and rolled my eyes at Murong Cang.
Alright, he acted without my knowledge again. I'll remember this debt. When he recovers, watch how I deal with him.
"Azurepeak, has Young Master Feng Qing returned to Luori City?”
"He returned yesterday and met Fifth Master and the others on the way. They entered the city together.”Azurepeak naturally had his sources of information.
I frowned." That day when you met Du Yunyan, could Feng Qing be nearby?"”
Murong Cang smiled mysteriously." I've already sensed that there's someone nearby. There might be another secret chamber there, right, Yiwu?"”
Yi Wu nodded." That's right. When we returned to the small house in the middle of the lake that night, it was already empty. I found a secret room behind the lotus picking painting. From there, I could clearly observe the situation outside.”
"Indeed, that day, I had my back to the painting and always felt a thorn in my back, so I asked Yi Wu to turn back halfway to investigate.”
I thought it made sense." That's right. Logically speaking, Feng Qing should have returned to Luori City earlier to arrange his sister's marriage. However, he only met Fifth Brother and the others outside the city today, so we can conclude that he must have gone to complete something more important. For example, to see if you are a general of the Celestial Dynasty?”
"He came to check on me, but he didn't know that I checked on him too?”Murong Cang did not think much of it, probably because he was quite disdainful of Feng Qing and the others.
"Does Du Yunyan know who you really are?”
"You should already know, so there's no need to hide your identity anymore. If necessary, you can reveal it directly.”
I see, but I'm still worried: "Then won't it be inconvenient for us to move?”
Azurepeak continued," Princess Consort, you don't have to worry. People in the martial arts world won't think that Princess Consort Li is the Sect Master of the Heavenly Gates Sect in one go. This way, you can better hide your other identity."”
" But our whereabouts have been exposed. As for the Emperor…" This was also what I was worried about." There's also Imperial Uncle. He's been eyeing us covetously. I was the one who foiled his grand plan to pass the throne to the late Emperor. He's long wanted to get rid of me.”
"In this case, we should reveal our identities. Moreover, the Jiangnan magistrate must use his head to guarantee our safety. Otherwise, if anything happens to us in this area, how many heads does he have?”
Before I could say anything, Azurepeak flattered me."Your Highness is wise!"
"Tomorrow is Tang Fei's wedding day. I wonder what will happen in the wedding hall? Or did you have a plan?"
"Won't you know when they come back? Don't you believe me?"
"Your plan is naturally foolproof, but Feng Qing is a person that cannot be underestimated.”" Feng Qing is definitely worthy of his reputation as one of the four great young masters of the martial arts world. I have a feeling that he's not a simple person.
Murong Cang was still relaxed and said lightly,""Ah Ze is also an unexpected person, isn't he? Do you think he has any chance of winning against the famous Feng Qing?”
I didn't say anything, Murong Ze…
That's someone I've never seen through!
He could laugh and joke, and he could also step forward in times of crisis. Jin Prince Murong Ze had always been known as the Hero King. He was the one who was most favored by the late Emperor, other than the current Tianding Prince. However, he was also the one with the least power. He did not have military power like Murong Zhan and Murong Cang, nor did he have a lot of followers like Murong Che and Murong Xun.
However, in the process of the struggle for the throne, the person who finally jumped out and stirred up the pool of water and broke the deadlock was precisely him. The first person to shout long live in the temple was also him! His mysterious identity as the national master, he knew the Elysium like the back of his hand, could it really be because of the endless words of Qing Feng?
I have never seen through Murong Ze, but I have never doubted his sincerity. Why do I trust him so much?
Perhaps it was really the person in white who appeared in my dream at the beginning of my coma. The person who really used the Snow Lotus to save my life, the person who I pulled my hand and shouted 'Wang Chen' was him. Just like my big brother, my brother-Murong Ze!

luori city
Murong Ze looked at the red wedding hall in boredom. His lazy appearance made people want to beat him up.
Standing behind him, Qing Styx looked dead, cold and distant. These two guys didn't look like they were here for the wedding. It seemed like they were the ones who caused trouble.
Luori City lived up to its reputation as the leader of the white society. Most of the guests were people from prestigious sects. The five mountains, three mountains, Emei Sect, and Shaolin Temple were all famous figures from various sects. Even if they were not sect masters, they were at least the eldest disciples. In short, they had given Luori City a lot of face at today's banquet.?
Murong Ze, whose alias was Rong Ze, was someone that everyone in the martial world wanted to get to know. He was elegant and graceful, and he was good at poetry, sword, and wine. He was one of the four young masters of the martial arts world, and the women who came to the wedding usually had their eyes on him. Even Qingming, who was standing behind him, was also a handsome young man. Although his face was a little ugly, it did not affect the pairs of red eyes that were staring at him.
"Qing Ming, why do you think your wife asked you to come with me instead of Azurepeak?”Murong Ze's face was really sinister. Qing Styx looked at the fox-like smile on his Fifth Master's face and felt his back go numb.
"Replying to Lord Fifth, this lowly one does not dare to guess Master's intentions.”
Murong Ze shook his head. Qing Styx was really boring. After all, he had only been with Yun Xi for a short period of time. He hadn't been educated like Qing Feng. However, this time, he had followed him out. It must be Yun Xi's way of punishing this kid. He really didn't understand. At this time, she still didn't forget to play. Editor's note: When have you ever forgotten?)
"Qing Styx, look at the fourth person sitting across from us.”
"That's the second head of the wealthy Wan Family Castle in the north, Lin Fang.”There was no warmth in Qingming's voice.
Lin Fang was about 40 years old. He was thin and cold. His gray-brown eyes were not big, but they were very lively. He wore a gray long robe and did not look like a person from the martial arts world. Although it was not good for businessmen to be so cold, the wealth of the Wan Clan Castle was comparable to that of a country. Naturally, they were not afraid of people not fawning over them. The gifts sent today were the most extravagant in the Wan Clan Castle. As expected, money smashed people to death.
"It is said that Wan Fei, the chief of the Wan Clan Castle, is only twenty years old. He just took over the position from the old castle master this year. I wonder if it's a good thing to have Lin Fang under him?”Murong Ze seemed to be talking to himself, so Qingming naturally didn't want to say anything. He just stood there quietly, looking around. He could see everything in the hall.
The auspicious time was approaching, but Jianqiu had yet to appear. Logically speaking, he should have arrived before Murong Ze and the others, but he was still nowhere to be seen. It seemed that he had arrived early, but had hidden himself, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
This wedding was strange enough. The ceremony was held in the woman's house, and none of the man's relatives were present. Although Tang Fei was not a rich man or a leader of a sect, he was still from a famous family. He was also an elegant young master who became famous in Jianghu. The name of Swordcraft Manor was not to be underestimated. Today's wedding was really strange. It seemed that Feng Yi and Feng Qing were not easy to get along with. You had your wall-climbing record, and it was not like I didn't climb the ladder. Besides... Murong Ze was extremely interested in Feng Qing gongzi, whom he had met outside the Sunset City. He was definitely a worthy opponent, and he was looking forward to fighting him head-on.
At this moment, Tang Fei didn't know how many people were risking their lives for him. Perhaps they knew, but he didn't seem to care.
Sitting opposite him was his future brother-in-law, Feng Qing!
As a man, as an extremely handsome man, Tang Fei couldn't help but fantasize about Feng Qing. Of course, it was just a joke. Tang Fei thought that he was very normal. However, his brother-in-law's appearance could not be described as handsome. If he had to find an adjective, Tang Fei would choose demonic.
He was clearly born a man, but he did not tie his hair up like other men. Instead, he let his hair down casually and tied it up with a jade hairpin. What did he mean? Wasn't this neither male nor female? Her long and narrow eyes were actually purple, making her look even more enchanting. White, so white that it was almost transparent. Was this what a man should have? Red, red lips like ripe cherries. Was this really a man?
If she was, she was definitely a male vixen!!!
"Lin Yuan is the groom today. Why are you so absent-minded?”This voice was definitely the deep and husky voice of a seven-foot-tall man. It was definitely magnetic.
"Where's Big Brother? Why aren't you greeting the guests in the hall, but sitting here alone with your little brother?”Tang Fei grinned cheekily. He was simply using the same method he used to deal with Jianqiu to deal with Feng Qing. Unfortunately, this future brother-in-law did not fall for it.
"I don't know why father suddenly insisted on taking you in as his son-in-law. I was far away on the frontier and rushed back after receiving the news. I'm really happy for my sister to see a talent like Lin Yuan. Feng Qing had long admired Swordforge Manor and was even more fascinated by Sword Manor Lord. It was truly a pity that he could not meet him today!”Feng Qing's voice had always been calm and emotionless. He spoke of regret, but others could not hear the slightest hint of regret.
Tang Fei secretly rolled his eyes and smiled.""Cousin has always been close to me. This time, we got married in a hurry without his permission. Moreover, this marriage was also a little complicated. Father-in-law even went to Swordforge Manor once. In short, everyone was not happy. Cousin might have some disagreements in his heart, but after the marriage, I will naturally bring Fengfeng back. At that time, no matter how unhappy Cousin is, he will still have to acknowledge the Tang family as his daughter-in-law. If Eldest Brother is interested, you can come with us.”
Feng Qing snorted faintly, but said gently,""Thank you for your kind intentions, but there's still one thing I want to ask you to answer.”
"Big Brother, feel free to speak!"
"Is this kiss real or fake?”
When Feng Qing asked this question, it was still so calm. Tang Fei was slightly stunned, but in an instant, he returned to his usual shamelessness and laughed."I don't know what big brother is talking about. Is there a misunderstanding?”
Feng Qing didn't say anything. A servant came over to greet the two masters and said to Tang Fei,""Young Master Tang, the City Lord has sent me to invite you. The auspicious time has arrived!”
Tang Fei and Feng Qing both stood up. The former adjusted his auspicious clothes and wore a bright red robe on his body, making him look even more handsome and tall." Big Brother, I'll go first."”
Feng Qing looked at Tang Fei's back and revealed a faint smile. Perhaps it wasn't a smile, but it was just a slight curve. He lowered his head and rubbed the jade ring on his finger with his hand. He muttered to himself,"Aren't the people from the Elysium simple? What kind of person was the Lord of the Heavenly Gates?”
No matter how cold the family was, the wedding was still a joyous occasion. The wedding hall was decorated with a festive atmosphere. Feng Yi, the castellan of Sunset City, sat on the high seat, and Feng Qing's son sat next to him. The man's parents were not present, and the one sitting on the other side was Master Chuchen, an eminent monk of Shaolin Temple. The master of ceremonies of the wedding was the head escort of the famous Fuyuan Escort Agency in Jianghu, Zhang Jinghui. He was a man who was smooth in all aspects.
Murong Ze was mixed in with a large group of guests, but he could not hide his brilliance. Not only did Feng Qing nod at him first, but Feng Yi also sized him up more than once.
"Qing Ming, do you think it's not good for a person to be too outstanding?”
The veins on Qing Styx's forehead twitched. He said respectfully,"Fifth Master is a dragon among men. Sitting here, he is clearly a crane among chickens, a pearl among sand!”
Murong Ze's smile widened. He turned around and glanced at him." Qing Ming, did your wife teach you how to speak?”
"I'll tell you the truth…" The most painful mission that Qing Styx had ever been on in his life was this one. Working with this master in front of him, his personality was really torturous. Could it be that the princess consort really wanted to punish him? Qing Styx was speechless…
Murong Ze had enough of bullying Qingming. It was a good time for a newcomer to enter the hall. Tang Fei was dressed in red and looked very noble. He was born in a prestigious family and was in a declining state. However, the Swordforge Manor still gave him the best environment to grow up in. Later, he was put in an important position by the Heavenly Gates and was already a capable subordinate of the original crown prince at a young age. High-spirited was not enough to describe this young man. He was simply like the sun at its zenith!
"Hmm…" Murong Ze dragged his words out.
"I wonder if we can see the bride here. It is said that Miss Feng Feng of Luori City is known as the number one beauty in the martial arts world. Looking at Young Master Feng, I'm looking forward to seeing Miss Feng!”
If there was a piece of tofu, Qing Styx really wanted to run into it.
The auspicious time has arrived-
Escort Leader Zhang sang loudly,
" Bow to Heaven and Earth…"
Newcomers bow to the heavens and earth!
"Second bow to the high hall…"
The newcomer didn't have time to bow and was interrupted…
"How can a newbie pay respects to someone who hasn't arrived yet?”
Who was it, who was it that dared to interrupt the wedding?
Who else could it be other than Young Master Jianqiu? Wasn't that guy with a fake smile at the entrance of the Sword Hall Jianqiu?
Everyone turned to look at him. Murong Ze was smiling like a fox, Feng Yi's face turned green and white, and Feng Qing finally revealed a real sneer.!
"Cousin, you still came! This little brother is waiting for you!" Tang Fei walked toward Jianqiu with a face full of joy. In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged more than one look. Feng Yi nodded at his son, and Young Master Feng stood up to welcome him.
Sword Manor Lord, why are you only here now? This great joyous occasion was so close to being incomplete and leaving behind regrets." He then instructed the steward,""Quickly take a seat for the Sword Manor Lord and place it beside the City Lord. This is also the high hall today!”
Anyone who heard Feng Qing's smooth and pleasant words would have to give him some face, but Jianqiu did not appreciate it at all. He did not sit on the high seat next to Feng Yi, and the group of martial artists looked at him in a daze. He walked toward the most respected Master De Chuchen in the hall as if no one else was around. He first performed a martial arts salute and asked,""Master, if this marriage is not arranged by the matchmaker and the parents order it, is it not considered to be improper?”
Master Chuchen nodded. On the other side, Feng Zao's expression had already changed. She looked as if she wanted to tear Jianqiu into pieces. However, in the end, she also revealed a bloodthirsty sneer. Unlike Feng Qing's faint mockery, this was a bloody smile.
"Tang Fei, come with me!"
This Jianqiu was really awesome. He actually wanted to swagger away the groom in front of everyone at the wedding? Who could agree?
Zhang Jinghui was the first to disagree." Sword Manor Lord, it's not very appropriate for you to do this. I'm one of the matchmakers. City Lord Feng has always been a great matchmaker. How can you say that your parents didn't order it? Moreover, with so many fellow martial artists gathered here today, the Sword Manor Lord's actions really could not get everyone's approval.”
Seeing him speak so righteously and sternly, Jianqiu was like Fahai who was trying to break up the lovebirds.
For a moment, there were indeed people who agreed. Jianqiu remained unmoved like a mountain. He just casually swept his gaze across the hall and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. However, when he looked at Feng Yi the next moment, his expression instantly turned cold.
"How come I don't know when this marriage was decided? Why hasn't anyone from my Swordforge Manor gone to Luori City to propose marriage? I would like to ask City Lord Feng for advice. A month ago, I went to the manor and forcefully took Tang Fei away, saying that I had done something to let Luori City down. I, Jianqiu, have always put the righteousness of the pugilistic world first, so I didn't stop it.”
As soon as he said this, the entire room was in an uproar.
Could it be that this heaven-sent marriage was just wishful thinking?
Everyone turned to look at Phoenix One, who was a little embarrassed. She glared at Tang Fei and then at the bride who was still wearing a veil. Her hands were pale and she was shaking with anger.
"It has been more than a month since the wedding invitation of Luori City was sent out. Why must the Sword Manor Lord come out to stop it during the grand ceremony? Could it be that you're deliberately trying to embarrass Luori City in front of so many martial artists?”
Feng Qing was indeed Feng Qing. In a very simple way, she had put Jian Qiu in a passive position again. In that case, others would immediately think that this was a conspiracy of Swordforge Manor. If Tang Fei changed sides at this time, it would prove this point even more.
Jian Qiu looked at Feng Qing and then at Tang Fei. No one could tell what he was thinking behind his smile.
"Sword Manor Lord, it is inappropriate for you to act like this. If you take the groom away from the wedding hall, where will the bride's face be?”
It was him, the Second Master of Ten Thousand Clan Castle, Lin Fang!
"Second Head Lin is too serious. If we don't stop it in time today, we'll really be letting everyone down. This wedding was originally a scam. City Lord Feng has no sincerity at all.”
"What?"
"What's going on?"
"Is the other side insincere?"
"There's going to be a good show!"
There was another round of discussion, and Phoenix One was furious.""Sword Manor Lord, what do you mean?"
"Is this bride really City Lord Feng's daughter?" Jianqiu snorted coldly. I'm afraid not!"
Tang Fei lifted the bride's veil and everyone looked at her…
