Chapter 258 Finale (Part 1)
The wedding ceremony lasted for three full days, including offering sacrifices to ancestors in the Taimiao, receiving congratulations from the emperor, and a banquet on the third day of the wedding.
This is a necessary royal etiquette. In addition, Yun Qingshi also had a private meal with Xiao Jiwu's master, Ye Runan and Zishu Heming.
Let me add here that since Xiao Jiwu took control of the situation, Zishu Heming's life has become much better. No one will bother him anymore. Now he just has to wait for the right time for Xie Fenchuan to take him back to Ning'an.
Two days later, Ye Runan and Sang Chengjing set out from the imperial city again.
Life returned to its former tranquility, but soon after he ascended the throne, Xiao Jiwu became even busier.
Oh, and there is one more thing.
Ying Twelve and Ying One seem to be getting together.
These days, Yun Qingshi often saw the two of them getting together.
The main reason was that Ying Yi always stuck to Ying Twelve. Such behavior was too abnormal for Ying Yi, who was usually indifferent, so it easily attracted Yun Qingshi's attention.
After he told Xiao Jiwu what he had observed, the two of them came to this conclusion after discussing it.
That's great. Ying Twelve has told him several times that he doesn't want to get married. Yun Qingshi thought that if he doesn't want to get married, it would be great to find a boyfriend to accompany him for the rest of his life.
It was afternoon, and Xiao Jiwu went to deal with government affairs after lunch. Yun Qingshi planned to take a short rest alone.
Although it is already autumn, the power of the autumn tiger cannot be underestimated. It is extremely hot.
The windows of the bedroom were all open, and there was an ice jar in the middle of the hall, which made the situation a little better.
At this moment, Yun Qingshi especially missed modern air conditioning, which can achieve constant temperature 24 hours a day.
He also missed the refrigerator a lot. Ice cola in the summer was the most refreshing.
After lowering the curtain, Yun Qingshi lay down on the couch, and Yun Duo beside him also lay comfortably with her belly exposed to accompany him.
Xiao Jiwu was originally determined not to let Yun Duo sleep on the bed, but now his attitude has gradually become more relaxed, and he still allows Yun Duo to sleep on the bed with him during the day.
His mind was wandering, his hands were stroking the ferret, and before he knew it, he fell into a deep sleep...
————
In a trance, Yun Qingshi was attracted by the sound of water.
He looked up in confusion, but all he could see was thick fog, blocking out the sky and the sun, making it impossible to see anything.
Strange, wasn't he asleep?
Is it a dream?
Yun Qingshi was confused and couldn't see the surrounding scenery clearly, so he had to follow the sound and move forward.
He followed the sound of water for a long time, until he was a little tired and finally saw a different scene.
He saw the stream making the sound, the water was gurgling and clear.
A man stood by the stream, wearing white clothes and with white hair, standing straight.
Yun Qingshi was even more confused, but before he could ask, the man spoke to him first.
"You're here."
Yun Qingshi was surprised when he heard this: "Do you know me?"
But he seemed to have never seen this person before.
The man then responded in a gentle manner: "I brought you here, so naturally I recognize you."
Yun Qingshi was not slow-witted, and his mind was clear at the moment, so he quickly realized what was going on. He asked in a deep voice, "When you brought me here, did you mean to lead me into a dream, or to this otherworldly world?"
The man replied, "The latter."
Yun Qingshi was shocked when he heard it, and then he thought to himself, "As expected."
After a pause, he asked again: "So, you are the system?"
Could it be that he was sent by the Book Management Bureau?
Yun Qingshi couldn't help but guess.
But if you didn't come earlier or later, what's the point of coming now? What's your purpose?
The man seemed a little surprised when he heard the voice, but he still gave a reply: "System? I am the Way of Heaven. I don't know what system you are talking about."
"Heaven's way?" Yun Qingshi was a little surprised.
But on second thought, it seems reasonable.
Apart from the system, only Heaven has the ability to bring it here.
But what is the purpose? What is the purpose?
Yun Qingshi then asked his doubts: "Why?"
Tiandao's face showed compassion, and he replied gently, "Because I have deduced that disaster is approaching. Xiao Jiwu has killed too many people. When that happens, all living things will be devastated. However, you may be able to break this situation. Your life in the other world is at stake. This action of mine will save the world, and also save you."
Yun Qingshi keenly grasped some key information. His eyes gradually widened and he asked anxiously, "Save me? Am I not already dead?"
Tiandao: "You are not dead. You have helped me and in return, I have given you a chance to survive."
Tiandao then asked: "So, do you choose to go back or stay?"
This was the purpose of his meeting Yun Qing this time.
Yun Qingshi was shocked and even a little dazed.
Go back? Could he still go back?
But...if he goes back, what should Xiao Jiwu do?
Besides being shocked, Yun Qingshi also had another question, so he suppressed his shock and asked again, "You brought me here, but what about the original Ying Eleven? He shouldn't have died at that time."
Tiandao remained calm and composed as he replied, "Ying Shiyi is a man of strong will. I respect his choice and have sent him to another world, where spiritual energy is abundant and suitable for cultivation. This is exactly what he sought."
After hearing this, the knot that had been hidden in Yun Qingshi's heart was finally untied.
So Ying Shiyi was not deprived of his life.
Someone like him deserves a better ending, and that's great.
Tiandao asked again: "Have you made your choice?"
Hearing this, Yun Qingshi slowly shook his head, and then said: "No, I want to discuss something with you."
Tiandao: "You say."
Yun Qingshi opened his mouth firmly: "I can no longer let Xiao Jiwu go. Since so many lives have been saved because of me, shouldn't you also give Xiao Jiwu a hope of survival? You can bring me here, and you can also send Ying Shiyi to another world. Can you let Xiao Jiwu go back with me?"
Because he couldn't abandon either Xiao Jiwu or his family.
As soon as Yun Qingshi finished speaking, Tiandao suddenly disappeared with a smile.
Yun Qingshi's heart sank, and he suddenly felt a sense of fear and helplessness...
However, just when Yun Qingshi thought that the other party was unwilling to agree, the always gentle and compassionate voice of the Heavenly Dao came again from the void.
"I promise you, after you two have lived through this life, I will send you back home. This will be my thank you gift."
!
At this moment, Yun Qingshi felt as if he had been pardoned and he breathed a sigh of relief.
But before he could slow down, a familiar and anxious voice suddenly reached his ears.
"Qingqing...Qingshi..."
It was Xiao Jiwu's voice, and Xiao Jiwu was worried.
Yun Qingshi felt heartbroken when he heard this. He struggled anxiously to wake up and opened his eyes. Sure enough, he met Xiao Jiwu's anxious expression.
Seeing Yun Qingshi finally open his eyes, Xiao Jiwu anxiously hugged him into his arms, his voice trembling: "Why did you sleep for so long? You didn't wake up, and Zhao Mingde was scared and sent people to look for me..."
There was even a hint of grievance in his voice.
But Xiao Jiwu was obviously more worried about Yun Qingshi's health. He quickly and carefully let go of the young man and asked with concern: "Are you feeling unwell? The imperial physician will be here soon."
Yun Qingshi hurriedly shook his head and replied comfortingly: "No, I'm fine. I'm sorry to have worried you."
Hearing this, Xiao Jiwu gently stroked the boy's cheek and continued: "I'm glad you're okay. If you have any problems, I..."
Xiao Jiwu didn't finish his words, but Yun Qingshi could already guess what he meant.
He saw that Xiao Jiwu's eyes were a little red, and he understood that Xiao Jiwu was really scared.
How could he bear to leave Xiao Jiwu alone like this?
Thinking of this, Yun Qingshi propped himself up and sat up, reaching out to hug Xiao Jiwu, then patted the man's back to comfort him: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm really fine, look, I'm fine, aren't I?"
No wonder Xiao Jiwu was frightened. Yun Qingshi sat up and realized that it was dark outside and the lights in the bedroom were already on...
