"Were you sent by Li Mu to protect the Ninth Princess?" Qin Yuesheng asked.
"That's right." The old man felt a little uncomfortable when he heard Qin Yuesheng dare to call Li Mu by his full name, but he had no choice because the other party was indeed stronger than him. He was not in a position to express his emotions for fear of being beaten by Qin Yuesheng again.
"May I have your name."
"Zheng Shijian."
Qin Yuesheng stretched out his hand and used the Ice Seal of Life and Death to slap the man's neck, allowing the cold force to penetrate into his body.
As a Silver Toad official, this person is nothing in his own eyes, but in the secular world, he is already an extraordinary master.
Since he came to Jiangnan to protect Ajiu, Qin Yuesheng naturally would not stop him.
"Come with me." Qin Yuesheng then brought this person to the mansion where Ajiu lived.
Ajiu is watering the flowers in the yard now. After not seeing him for many days, he is no longer busy and has to sleep in the open air. His condition has recovered a lot, his complexion looks healthy and rosy, and he looks even better.
Seeing Qin Yuesheng appear, she immediately put down the small pot in her hand, ran to him like a fluttering butterfly, and said with a happy smile: "Brother, you finally came to see me."
"Well, long time no see." Qin Yuesheng pointed at Zheng Shijian who was following behind him and said, "This gentleman is a member of the Seven Star Guard who came from Chang'an specifically to protect you."
As a Silver Toad official, Zheng Shijian had lived in Chang'an for a long time and naturally had seen Ah Jiu's true appearance. Now that he saw the Ninth Princess in person, he immediately knelt down excitedly and said, "Ninth Princess, I am late."
"No need to be like this, get up quickly." Ajiu is beautiful and kind-hearted. Although she is a princess, she does not have the airs of a princess at all.
Qin Yuesheng said, "Master Zheng, from now on you will stay here and be responsible for protecting the princess."
"I know." Zheng Shijian agreed.
After knowing Qin Yuesheng's strength, he no longer dared to act rudely to Qin Yuesheng, and his attitude became obviously more respectful.
"Brother, do you want to stay for dinner?" Jiu asked hurriedly.
"That's out of the question." Qin Yuesheng shook his head: "I haven't slept all night. I have to go back to my house and sleep first."
Ah Jiu said: "But there is a bed here too."
"Okay." Qin Yuesheng didn't care much about where he slept, so he agreed.
When Ajiu heard this, he was immediately delighted.
If Qin Yuesheng could stay here a little longer, she would be able to see more of her 'brother'. This alone made her very happy.
Zheng Shijian was old and of course very knowledgeable about matters between men and women. He could tell at a glance that the Ninth Princess's attitude towards Qin Yuesheng was obviously not right, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
…
On the wedding day, the Su and Du mansions were decorated with lights and colorful lanterns, and gongs and drums were played, making it extremely lively and bustling.
The two families were wealthy, and they sent a group of servants carrying baskets with the wedding procession, distributing date cakes wrapped in red paper to passers-by along the way. In a short time, the whole city was crowded with people, all of whom came to see this rare happy event in Qingyang City.
Du Tankang sat on a tall horse in his groom's uniform with a calm expression on his face, and passers-by along the way were all envious of him.
As a relative of the groom, Qin Yuesheng sat with Du Beilun in a carriage in the wedding procession, only five steps away from the sedan chair that the bride would ride in.
"Yuesheng, you can drink too much. I don't think you have ever gotten drunk in the past few days." Du Beilun held his forehead and said a little depressed.
Qin Yuesheng smiled but said nothing. He had the internal strength to expel the smell of alcohol, so if he could still get drunk, it would be really weird.
When the wedding procession arrived at the gate of the Su Mansion, a servant from the Du Mansion immediately came forward to present a red envelope to the guards at the gate and shouted loudly, "The groom is here."
After a while, the mother-in-law of the Su family came out slowly, supporting a woman wearing a phoenix crown and a red square cloth covering her head.
"Bride, please get into the sedan chair!"
Seeing the bride sitting in the sedan chair brought from the Du Mansion, everyone present couldn't help but smile with blessings on their faces.
…
North of Qingyang City.
Seven men and seven horses came galloping over. Five of them were wearing white cloaks that fluttered like flags at high speed. They were none other than Xu Chu and the other five of the Ten Attendants.
The other two were dressed in Confucian robes and holding compasses. They were fortune tellers hired by Xu Chu from the Imperial Observatory to find the whereabouts of the Ninth Princess.
A fortune teller had an eagle nose, double pupils, and an unusually long neck, which was a natural peculiarity. Suddenly, he pulled the reins hard, shouted "Whoa", and stopped the horse under him directly.
Seeing this, the others stopped one after another.
Xu Chu asked, "Sir, have you found anything?"
The fortune teller narrowed his eyes and tilted his head to look southeast: "My lords, I have seen the Phoenix destiny of the Ninth Princess."
Xu Chu was immediately overjoyed: "Excellent! Excellent! Where is the Ninth Princess?"
The weather forecaster pointed in that direction: "Over there."
Xu Chu immediately took out the map from his arms and spread it out on horseback to examine it.
According to the direction pointed by the fortune teller, there is only one city over there, named Qingyang.
"Let's go." Xu Chu put away the map, spurred his horse and hurried over.
…
Xiqi Mountain View.
As usual, Huang Ting would habitually sit on the hilltop in the main mountain position and look at the surrounding terrain, while practicing the "Xiqishan Sutra" of Xiqishan Temple.
The mountains have their own aura, which is just right for practicing the "Xiqi Mountain Sutra".
Suddenly, Huang Ting felt the sky in the distance darken, and he could vaguely see five bats with their wings spread. Upon closer inspection, he found that they were not ordinary bats, but manifestations of his destiny.
