On the second day of the wedding, the newlyweds needed to serve tea to their in-laws.
Although Bai Musheng was only sixteen years old and hadn't reached the age of adulthood yet, he had already made a name for himself in the army and had always been independent and mature. Hence, he was granted permission by the emperor to leave the imperial palace early and live alone. He was conferred the title of King Chu.
When he reached the age of crown, he could go to his fief.
Hence, Bai Musheng, who didn't live in the Great Ming Palace, had to enter the palace with Zhu Menghuang in a carriage early in the morning.
Bai Musheng had never liked to ride in a carriage. He preferred to ride on a horse. However, considering his newlywed wife, he specially sat in the carriage with Zhu Menghuang this time.
The horse's hooves stepped on the bluestone road, making a crisp clatter.
In the slightly shaking car, Bai Musheng looked at Zhu Menghuang, who was sitting opposite him.
She was the daughter of the Duke of Rong, the second daughter of the first wife. She had an elder sister who married the son of the young official of the Supreme Court.
The Duke of Rong was called Zhu Yuanshan. He was a famous general of the Great Qi Dynasty. He held military power and guarded the Western Regions. He protected the Silk Road that brought endless wealth to the Great Qi Dynasty.
He was also in the capital at the moment. After Zhu Menghuang returned to the capital in a few days, he would immediately set off for the border.
At the thought of his father-in-law, Zhu Yuanshan, Bai Musheng narrowed his eyes. He could more or less tell that something was wrong with his father.
As the Fourth Prince and the King of Chu, he now had military power in his hands and was already a huge threat to the Crown Prince. The Emperor actually agreed to let him marry the daughter of the Defender General. The marriage of the two families almost tacitly agreed that the Defender General had boarded the chariot of the Fourth Prince. Wasn't this forcing the Crown Prince to make a move?
Could it be that Imperial Father was dissatisfied with the Crown Prince?
With this thought in mind, Bai Musheng's gaze was fixed on Zhu Menghuang's pretty face.
She was very good-looking. Her skin was fair and smooth, and her willow-like eyebrows were delicate and graceful. Her pair of clear autumn eyes seemed to be able to speak. Occasionally, when she glanced at her, there was a misty mist. Her small cherry lips were red without a touch, and now that she had applied lipstick, they looked even more rosy and alluring.
She was a lady from a wealthy family who perfectly matched the impression people had of a 'lady from a well-off family'.
However, this seemingly gentle and weak woman was actually thinking about something else.
What was the situation with Gou 'zi? Why are you staring at me all the way?
Is there a flower on my face?
What are you looking at! If it wasn't for your cheap father saying that you should be gentle and graceful, I would have punched you in the face long ago!
Bastard! Still looking! Are you bullying me because my cultivation hasn't recovered yet? When I start cultivating again, I'll cut you with a flying sword!
【┻━┻︵╰(‵□)╯︵┻━┻】
Good heavens, he even created emojis.
Bai Musheng suddenly had a thought. He lowered his voice and called out,"Huang 'er ~~"
Zhu Menghuang was speechless.
In an instant, goosebumps rose all over his body.
What the f * ck was going on with the young paparazzo?
It was so mushy!
"Husband…husband…"
Seeing how this lass was obviously feeling extremely awkward, yet she still had to put on a shy and happy expression on her face, Bai Musheng almost couldn't help but smack his thigh and burst out laughing.
However, Bai Musheng didn't forget about his business.
There was one thing that he had to test right now.
"Huang 'er, on this expedition to the north, I met a person with great literary talent. His poems are so touching, are you interested in listening?”
Tsk! What's so good about poetry?
"Husband, I'm all ears ~"
You just pretend →_→
Bai Musheng leaned against the carriage lazily. His long legs were stretched out and placed in front of Zhu Menghuang.
Then, he said slowly,"
" That person's name is Li Bai. I remember that the poem was called 'Toast to the Toast'…"
"Jun Bujian, the water of the Yellow River…"
After he finished reciting a toast that almost no one in the future had heard before, Bai Musheng stared at Zhu Menghuang, not letting go of any expression on her face.
However, Bai Musheng was disappointed.
Zhu Menghuang was confused.
"…This poem…is very good.”
What was that? Elegant…
Li Bai? Never heard of it!
Why was Gou 'zi's gaze so strange?
Tsk! Did he discover something? If the young paparazzo knew that my reputation of being the best in poetry, painting, and needlework was all a lie, would he be angry?
Write my ass a poem! My swordsmanship is unparalleled in the world!
Even if he didn't cultivate it, it wouldn't be a problem for him to beat a mortal like you!
Oh!
So your title was a lie?
Bai Musheng was satisfied.
He had already obtained a lot of information.
First of all, Zhu Menghuang shouldn't be from this world because Bai Musheng knew very well that there were absolutely no supernatural beings in this world. Immortal cultivation didn't exist at all.
Therefore, this Zhu Menghuang, who seemed to have never been a mortal, must have come from another world.
In addition, although he knew nothing about that world, Bai Musheng was certain that it wasn't a modern world. At least, it wasn't a world that had any connection with his own era.
Otherwise, it was impossible for her not to know Li Bai.
It was impossible that he had not heard of Jiang Jingjiu.
The problem was that this girl had once complained in her heart that she married him so that she could recover her cultivation. At the very least, she could cultivate again.
What was the necessary connection between cultivation and marrying him?
Bai Musheng suppressed the doubt in his heart.
There was a lot of time. There was no hurry.
He was prepared to compete with this little girl who did not mean what she said. It would all depend on who could act better than who.
Hence, Bai Musheng changed the topic. Why don't you take a look?"
Zhu Menghuang was instantly at a loss.
What the hell is this!
You should have let me kill you with my sword!
Her mind was racing, but she did not hesitate to say,"This poem…is soul-stirring and magnificent…I can tell that the person you met is an ambitious person.”
Bai Musheng clapped lightly.
"Not bad, not bad. Huang 'er is indeed smart. Everyone in Chang' an says that Huang 'er is talented in poetry and painting. Speaking of which, I haven't seen it before. Why don't Huang' er compose a poem?”
Gou 'zi!
I gave you face!
Are you done?
Ha…she wanted to kill her husband!
" That…Husband, writing poems requires inspiration. I'm worried about serving tea to Father and Mother in the future. I'm a little upset, so…"
Seeing Zhu Menghuang's expression that said," I'm so distressed now, my husband, please don't mess with me ", Bai Musheng was in a good mood.
Teasing this girl was too interesting!
Amid this laughter, the carriage slowly arrived at the Red Phoenix Sect.
The palace naturally didn't allow people to ride on horses, so Bai Musheng alighted from the carriage and reached out to help Zhu Menghuang, who came out later.
The palace servants who had been waiting for a long time immediately came forward and bowed to Bai Musheng and Zhu Menghuang. They told them that the emperor and empress were already waiting for them. Bai Musheng immediately got someone to lead the way and entered the Great Ming Palace with Zhu Menghuang.
