Chapter 607 I Don’t Want to Get Married (4000 words)
"Grandpa Sun, why are you here?"
When seeing Grandpa Sun, Zhu Cici pretended to be surprised, as if he didn't know the other party had come.
"My lady, this is such a big event, I must come here." Butler Sun said with a smile, "Here, I would like to congratulate you first. You will soon become the Crown Princess."
“.”
Zhu Cici pinched her sleeves with her small hands, frowned slightly, bit her thin lips lightly, and continued to pretend that she knew nothing.
"Grandpa Sun, I don't know what you are talking about? How come I will become the Crown Princess?"
"Miss, you are devoted to studying at Bailu Academy, so it is normal that you don't know."
Butler Sun said flatteringly, with a somewhat excited look on his face.
"Before, the King of Wei wrote a letter to our Majesty, expressing the intention of the two families to cultivate friendship between Wei and Qi, and that the Crown Prince of Wei wanted to marry a woman from our Qi.
But you also know, young lady, that there are no women of the right age in the royal family of Qi.
Finally, the king grants you marriage.
Although you are not from the royal family, your reputation is known throughout the world.
Moreover, the prince’s status is not ordinary. Compared with an ordinary princess, your status is more noble.
The master and the mistress also agreed to this marriage.
When the time comes, young lady, you will be the queen of Wei, which is really amazing.
Oh oh oh.
Miss, look at me, my old servant, when I talk about something exciting, I always tend to forget some important things.
This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Wei."
After Butler Sun finished speaking, Wei's Crown Prince Zhuang Yifei stepped forward and bowed to Zhu Cici: "I am Zhuang Yifei, nice to meet you, young lady."
Zhuang Yifei had never met Zhu Cici, but had only heard of her reputation as the most talented woman in the world.
Zhu Cici ranks among the top ten beauties on the list. In terms of beauty, she is definitely impeccable. Zhuang Yifei naturally has high expectations for Zhu Cici.
In his mind, Zhuang Yifei also imagined how beautiful Zhu Cici would be.
But when they actually met, Zhuang Yifei found that his imagination was not enough.
The woman in front of him was so much more beautiful than all the so-called beauties he had seen since he was a child.
It seemed that as long as she stood there, no matter who it was, they would be eclipsed.
Not to mention that the other party is the closed disciple of the dean of Bailu Academy.
If I married such a woman.
Then the relationship between Wei State and Bailu Academy will definitely be taken to a higher level.
"Ci Ci greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Zhu Ci Ci bowed.
Zhu Cici looked at the man in front of him.
Zhuang Yifei is indeed handsome and tall, and his status is also extraordinary. Many women should like such a prince.
But Zhu Cici had no interest in him at all. All he was thinking about at this moment was how to reject him.
"Grandpa Sun." Zhu Cici called the housekeeper of the Zhu Mansion.
"Hey, Miss." Butler Sun came over quickly.
Zhu Cici organized her words in her mind and said calmly, "Grandpa Sun, please tell my parents that I am devoted to studying at Bailu Academy and have never thought about getting married."
After finishing speaking, Zhu Cici looked at the man in front of him and apologized, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I made you come here for nothing. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely go to the State of Wei to apologize.
But for now, Cici just wants to study at Bailu Academy, that's all."
“.”
As soon as Zhu Cici finished speaking, Zhuang Yifei frowned.
The officials accompanying Zhuang Yifei showed even more displeasure.
The prince of Wei, one of the ten great dynasties of the human race, came from afar to propose marriage, and it was arranged by his parents and the matchmaker, and even the king of Qi agreed.
But in the end, the woman refused.
What does this mean? Do you look down on our Wei Kingdom? Do you know how many princesses of the dynasty want to marry our prince? "Alas," Butler Sun sighed, "Miss, this time, you really can't refuse. The master and the lady have agreed to such a marriage, and the matchmaker is His Majesty. If you refuse..."
"I can't agree to this." Zhu Cici said, his tone revealing that he couldn't refuse.
“That’s right!”
Just at this moment, a female voice came.
Xia Wei ran to Zhu Cici breathlessly and protected Zhu Cici behind her: "What about the order of our parents? Even if it is the so-called marriage granted by His Majesty? My Cici said she would not agree to it.
What? Do you want to use the rules of this mortal world to restrict the closed-door disciples of the dean of Bailu Academy?"
“.”
After Xia Wei finished speaking, no one dared to say anything.
Those officials of Wei State were originally somewhat dissatisfied, but now they can only hold it back.
yes.
Zhu Cici also has another identity, that is, the closed disciple of the dean of Bailu Academy.
Who dares to force the closed-door disciples of Bailu Academy to do something they don't want to do? "I wonder who the girl is?" At this moment, a man in a green shirt stepped forward and asked Xia Wei, "I wonder who the girl is?"
Xia Wei turned her head and snorted, "I am the second princess of Wei State! Xia Wei!"
"It turns out to be the Second Princess."
The man named Wei Dao bowed.
"Your Highness, this is wrong. Confucianism emphasizes filial piety and loyalty to the monarch. Parents' orders and matchmaker's words are the norm. The matchmaker is the monarch of Qi. It should be a natural thing. How can it be forced? Miss Xia said these words to encourage Miss Zhu to reject this marriage. Isn't this making Miss Zhu unfilial and unfaithful?"
"You!" Xia Wei raised her fist in anger.
These officials in the court really are talking nonsense and confusing right and wrong.
I was thinking about my best friend, but in the eyes of her, it was perceived as her being unfaithful.
"Weiwei." However, Zhu Cici was the first to pull Xia Wei's fist down.
Zhu Cici stepped forward and said, "Filial piety is not blind filial piety. Loyalty is not blind loyalty. Cici is kind to the elders and respects the monarch, but this does not mean blindly following orders.
And you are wrong in saying something, sir.
The filial piety emphasized by Confucianism is family harmony and caring for the elders.
The loyalty that Confucianism emphasizes is to protect orthodoxy, and loyalty is to the people. "
"." The man opened his mouth slightly, wanting to refute, but didn't know where to start.
Zhu Cici also didn't want to follow some people in making too many excuses.
Zhu Cici waved his hand and said, "Please leave now. Thank you for coming all the way here."
"Miss, this time, it's really beyond your control." Butler Sun sighed and made way.
A man walked out from the crowd.
The man had a long sword on his waist and said with a smile, "Ci Ci, long time no see."
Looking at this man, Zhu Cici was stunned: "Second uncle?"
"Ci Ci, no matter what, whether you agree or not, you have to go back with us?" Zhu Xu said seriously.
"What if I don't go back?" Zhu Cici frowned.
"If you don't go back, then Second Uncle will not be polite." Zhu Xu sighed, "Your father said that he knew you wouldn't be obedient, so he asked me to take you back."
"Uncle Zhu! This is the White Deer Academy! Are you planning to resort to violence?"
Xia Wei stood in front of Zhu Cici again.
Xia Wei knew the identity of Zhu's second uncle.
Zhu Xu was also a vassal of Qi.
Moreover, Zhu Xu’s status as a prince was not due to his elder brother.
Zhu Xu's status as the "Marquis of Pingnan" was earned entirely by himself while guarding the frontier! His swordsmanship was superb, and it was said that he had reached the Jade Uncut Realm.
If Zhu Xu wanted to use force, Ci Ci really couldn't beat him.
"Your Highness, this is wrong."
Zhu Xu shook his head.
"Although I am a reckless man, I also know that it is difficult for an incorruptible official to judge family affairs. Similarly, this matter is now the Zhu family's family affair. I respect the White Deer Academy very much, and I respect Dean Qi even more, but this matter really has nothing to do with the White Deer Academy. I am just taking my niece back.
Even if we take a step back, I am not bringing Ci Ci back to harm her. I just want her to meet my elder brother and aunt. What does this have to do with Bailu Academy?"
"you"
Xia Wei's eyes rolled around.
She found out.
I really can't seem to find an excuse.
"Uncle, I won't go back with you." Zhu Cici shook his head and said calmly.
"Then Cici, don't blame your uncle for being rude." Zhu Xu drew out the big knife in his hand.
The domineering sword energy swept out.
Cut it down with one knife.
Zhu Xu just wanted to use this knife to knock Zhu Cici unconscious and then take him back.
Just when Zhu Cici was about to use the Nian Fa Jue to block the knife, a long red sword fell straight down and stabbed in front of Zhu Cici and Xia Wei.
“Zheng!”
The long sword trembled.
A burst of sword energy spread out, offsetting the overbearing knife energy.
The violent sword energy even continued to spread outward, raising sandstorms several meters high.
Some officials of lower realms were blown away and fainted on the ground.
When the wind and sand cleared and everyone's vision gradually became clear, a man in a white robe stood next to the sword.
Zhu Cici looked at the back of the man standing in front of her. Her eyes shook slightly, her heart beat continuously, and a kind of joy flowed slowly in the girl's heart like a clear spring.
Although Zhu Cici had said before that she didn't want Xu Ming to come.
But which girl doesn't want the person she likes to stand in front of her at the critical moment? This doesn't mean that she hopes the other person can help her solve the problem.
But most girls just feel in their hearts that "he cares about me".
That is enough.
"Your Excellency?"
Zhu Xu held a long sword in his hand and looked coldly at the handsome man.
He looks like a scholar, but the sword spirit emanating from his body makes him look like a swordsman.
But the martial arts energy that he emanated faintly made people feel that he was a martial artist.
"Xu State Mansion of Wu State—Xu Ming." Xu Ming said calmly.
“.”
When everyone heard the name "Xu Ming", they took a deep breath.
Xu Mingke is really too famous.
The phrase "Red face leaves the mirror, flowers leave the trees" is famous all over the world.
In just a few years.
Second place on the Qingyun list.
He withstood three punches from the great national pillar Mo Peinan.
During the battle at the Wu Kingdom's palace, one person killed several Nascent Soul cultivators. Although this was due to the blessing of the Wu Kingdom's national fortune, it was still very remarkable.
Even in the Northern Wilderness, it can be said that "everyone in the world knows you."
Under normal circumstances, other people would feel okay about Xu Ming's appearance.
But now it's different.
The Wu Kingdom declared war on the ten great dynasties of the human race, and the war had reached a white-hot stage. Even the Wei Kingdom’s army, together with the Huangquan Sect, were like a sharp knife piercing directly into the Wu Kingdom’s imperial capital.
Xu Ming's appearance here at this time, and standing in front of Zhu Cici and the Prince of Wei, has a different meaning.
"Mr. Xu, do you want to disrupt this marriage? Do you think that this will allow the State of Wu to catch its breath?" An official from the State of Wei stepped forward and said.
Xu Ming shook his head: "The war between Wu State and other countries is a matter between countries. What I am doing now is just helping a friend."
Xu Ming's eyes were like swords as he looked at Zhuang Yifei, and then he looked at Zhu Xu: "Please go back, Ci Ci said that he doesn't want to leave with you."
"Do you think you can really take care of this matter?" Zhu Xu tightly grasped the long sword in his hand.
As a cultivator at the Jade Pu Realm who had fought on the battlefield for many years, Zhu Xu felt that he would have no face left if he was driven away by such a junior.
Xu Ming drew out the long sword in his hand and simply said, "How about giving it a try?"
"You are so arrogant youngster!"
Zhuang Yifei was furious, holding a long knife in his hand, and slashed across!
Xu Ming just took a step forward, and the sword energy suddenly raged.
Xia Wei, who was standing behind Xu Ming, felt difficulty breathing, as if every time she took a breath, it was as if thousands of needles were piercing her lungs.
Zhu Cici took a step forward and held her best friend's hand. The inky spiritual power covered Xia Wei's body, and Xia Wei felt much better.
Looking at the man standing in front of him, Zhu Cici was actually very surprised.
It’s not that Zhu Cici hasn’t seen powerful swordsmen before.
Zhu Cici had also heard of Xu Ming's reputation.
But Zhu Cici realized for the first time that Xu Ming's sword energy was so exaggerated.
Judging from the spiritual power emanating from him, Xu Ming seemed to be only at the Nascent Soul stage.
But how could a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage possess such strong sword energy and sword intent?
“Bang!”
Xu Ming swung his sword, just like a painter holding a paintbrush and painting lightly in front of him.
The violent sword energy turned into a long sword dragon and rushed straight towards Zhu Xu.
Zhu Xu was shocked and did not dare to underestimate the enemy. He held the long sword and used the strongest move of "Overlord Sword".
The long dragon with sword was cut off by Zhu Xu.
Just when Zhu Xu was about to switch from defense to offense and make another attack, the long sword in Xu Ming's hand had already stabbed in front of the opponent.
Zhu Xu quickly raised his giant sword to block.
But this huge knife was like tofu and was pierced by the red magic sword in Xu Ming's hand.
"Xu Ming!"
Zhu Cici, who was standing behind him, shouted.
The sword in Xu Ming's hand stopped, and the tip of the sword pointed at the opponent's neck.
A drop of blood dripped from his neck.
