On Mount Emei.
"I bow to Heaven and Earth!"
"Bowing to the parents twice!"
"Husband and wife bow to each other!"
"Send them to the bridal chamber!"
Murong Fu and Miejue entered the bridal chamber.
Keep everything simple.
The two were married in the presence of many disciples of the Emei Sect.
Due to the constraints of etiquette, Zhou Zhiruo and Ding Minjun did not have a wedding ceremony; instead, Zhou Zhiruo served Ding Minjun as a maidservant accompanying her in her dowry.
Although they had no official titles, they were all Murong Fu's concubines.
The disciples of the Emei Sect were overjoyed; their master, who had been single for over thirty years, had finally gotten married.
However, Yue Lingshan kept a bitter face.
Although she had been Murong Fu's wife for a long time, they had never formally married. When she returned to the Huashan Sect, she was troubled by something and left after only one day, so she didn't have time to have a wedding ceremony.
...
Several days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Under Murong Fu's care, Miejue seemed to have been rejuvenated, her beauty shimmering and breathtaking.
She used to always have a sour face no matter who she met, but now she smiles broadly and her eyes are full of spring water. Her disciples exclaim that their master is so beautiful.
In contrast,
Ding Minjun and Zhou Zhiruo have shed their naivety and become more mature, completing their transformation from girls to young women, exuding charm in every way.
This day.
Miejue was reluctant to leave and bid farewell to Murong Fu: "Husband, can't you stay?"
"Don't act like a little girl. We are both men of the martial world. This brief farewell is for a more intense reunion in the future." Murong Fu stroked Miejue's smooth face and said earnestly, "I will come to see you at any time. You can also come to Songzhou to find me."
With reddened eyes, Miejue took a deep breath and calmly nodded: "I understand. Take care on your journey, my husband, and remember to visit me often."
Murong Fu didn't say anything more, but instead put his arms around her neck and gave her a deep kiss.
By the time Miejue recovered from her dazed state, Murong Fu had already finished a deep kiss with Zhou Zhiruo and Ding Minjun.
In the past few days, Murong Fu not only left them with the essence of life, but also taught them the Nine Yin Manual.
With this unique skill, their martial arts will surely reach a new level.
I don't expect them to break through to the Grandmaster level, but they should be able to protect themselves at the Grandmaster level without any problem.
I laughed loudly and went out the door; how could I, a man of such talent, be a mere commoner?
Murong Fu descended the mountain with his head held high.
Yue Lingshan and the other girls were already waiting at the foot of the mountain.
Yue Lingshan said softly, "Why don't you stay on the mountain a few more days, my husband? I see that the other brides are quite reluctant to leave you."
Murong Fu chuckled, came to Yue Lingshan's side, embraced her, gently stroked her lower abdomen, and said softly:
"Shan'er, don't you understand my feelings? I may forget anyone else, but I will never forget you. Don't be upset, it's not good for the baby."
The hot breath hit Yue Lingshan's earlobe, making her cheeks burn and her body go weak, as if melting in spring water. She nestled in Murong Fu's arms, letting out a soft moan, and all her resentment vanished.
Several more days passed.
The group stepped into the territory of Songzhou.
Xiangyang City.
It appears that the entire army has entered a state of alert.
At the entrance, the guard, accompanied by a squad of soldiers, surrounded them: "Who goes there? Do you have a pass?"
"My name is Murong Fu..."
"Nan Murong!"
"He is the son-in-law of Master Guo."
As soon as Murong Fu announced his name, several soldiers exclaimed with delight.
The lieutenant immediately handed over a portrait.
The guard carefully examined him and confirmed Murong Fu's identity. He then glanced at the women and asked, "So it's Young Master Murong. May I ask who these ladies are?"
Murong Fu said, "This is my wife. She came from Mingzhou and passed through Xiangyang. She came to visit my father-in-law and mother-in-law."
The garrison commander nodded slightly and then allowed them to pass.
Before Murong Fu even arrived at the Guo residence, Guo Jing and Huang Rong came to greet him.
Guo Jing looked at Murong Fu excitedly: "My dear son-in-law, you've come!"
Huang Rong also spoke up: "Why is Fu'er nowhere to be seen?"
Murong Fu smiled and replied, "Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, Fu'er is pregnant and resting at home. After she gives birth, I will definitely bring her and the child to visit you."
Huang Rong looked at Yue Lingshan and the other girls suspiciously: "Then who are they?"
"This is Ning Zhongze, the wife of the leader of the Huashan Sect in Mingzhou, and also my son-in-law's mother-in-law."
"This is his daughter, Yue Lingshan, who is the son-in-law's wife."
"This is my son-in-law's cousin, Lin Shiyin."
Murong Fu introduced them one by one.
Ren Yingying grew anxious and asked, "Why don't you introduce me?"
Murong Fu said indifferently, "She's just a maidservant, insignificant."
Ren Yingying pouted, unconvinced.
Huang Rong frowned deeply. Even a mere insignificant maid was so beautiful. It seemed that Fu'er had quite a few competitors!
Murong Fu changed the subject and asked, "Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, I see the city's garrison commanders are drawing their swords and drawing their bows; it seems there's been a battle recently?"
Upon hearing this, Guo Jing sighed and said, "Recently, those Mongol Tartars have gone mad for some reason, frequently attacking cities. Although they have suffered heavy losses, they continue to attack regardless of the cost."
Murong Fu thought of Zhao Min. Could it be that Princess Zhao Min's disappearance angered the Yuan Dynasty?
"I see." Murong Fu nodded slowly and said, "In my opinion, the role of individual bravery is always limited. Training soldiers and ensuring their food and pay is the right way... I am willing to donate one million taels of silver to provide clothing for the soldiers. I hope my father-in-law will not refuse."
"Hiss!" Guo Jing exclaimed in surprise. "My dear son-in-law, you actually have so much silver."
The others stared at Murong Fu in shock. Ten thousand taels of silver was enough for an ordinary person to live a peaceful life, and one million taels was enough to live a hundred lifetimes!
"My son-in-law is quite wealthy, but he has nothing of value except a little bit of silver."
As he spoke, Murong Fu took out a stack of silver notes from his bosom, each note worth ten thousand taels, totaling one hundred notes.
When everyone saw that Murong Fu was carrying so many silver notes, they were all surprised. How wealthy must he be!
“Father-in-law, I believe that the purchase of military supplies should be handled personally. We must not hand over the money to the court. Otherwise, after being skimmed off layer by layer, the soldiers will probably receive less than a hundred taels.”
Murong Fu's words once again elicited a wry smile from everyone.
A ten-year-old incorruptible prefect amassed a fortune of 100,000 taels of
Even honest officials are like this, let alone corrupt officials, who are simply bottomless pits.
Guo Jing nodded emphatically: "I understand! I will personally send people to acquire military supplies! Rest assured, my lord!"
Murong Fu clasped his hands and said, "I am accompanied by my female relatives and it is inconvenient for me to stay at the front line. Father-in-law and mother-in-law, please do not blame me for not helping to defend the city."
Guo Jing laughed and said, "What are you saying, my dear son-in-law? Your one million taels is worth more than the strength of ten thousand men."
Murong Fu and his family stayed in Xiangyang City for one night.
Early the next morning,
Take a car out of the city.
Murong Fu's ears twitched slightly as he looked in a certain direction.
Yue Lingshan asked, "Husband, what's wrong?"
Murong Fu raised his hand and waved it gently in that direction, saying, "Senior, since you're here, please show yourself."
"snort!"
A cold snort came from that direction, its sound like waves, layer upon layer:
"You married my granddaughter and are still so promiscuous? I'd like to see what you're capable of!"
