Chapter 549 Finale (Part 1)
The wedding procession arrived at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion at an auspicious time.
When Yun Chen, wearing a phoenix robe, a phoenix crown on his head, and covering his face with a golden fan, slowly walked out surrounded by women who were smiling like flowers.
The crowd around him erupted in unprecedented cheers.
Yun Chen saw that the entire city of Kyoto was in a frenzy of celebration.
The huge sound surrounded her. She was happy for a while, because the day of marrying Huo Gannian was finally coming.
For a moment I felt embarrassed, wondering how I could be worthy of such a grand celebration.
Some of the common people called her General Yun, some called her Prime Minister Wu, and some followed Huo Gan's title of "Grand Imperial Teacher" and respected her as "Grand Lady"...
She was carried in a large, bright red sedan chair, with Huo Gannian riding in front, leading the team to the Imperial Tutor's Mansion with the beating of gongs and drums.
Amidst the roar of drums and brilliant colors filling the sky, the breeze gently blew the curtains of the sedan chair.
Whenever she looked through the gap in the curtain, she could see Huo Gannian looking back at her frequently.
He was wearing a bright red groom's robe embroidered with nine dragons in gold. He had a handsome face and an unparalleled noble bearing.
The sharp and narrow phoenix eyes that had always been straight were now curved like a crescent moon and never stretched out.
Yun Chen was filled with happiness, but suddenly he felt panic and loneliness.
This heavy sedan was shaking up and down, as if it was difficult to cross mountains and hills. Could it really complete the short distance of a thousand feet from the Prime Minister's Mansion to the Imperial Tutor's Mansion?
These chaotic thoughts flashed back and forth in Yun Chen's mind.
She originally thought that since this was her third time being a bride, she should not feel new or nervous.
Who knew that at this moment, she was like a little butterfly twisting and turning on a cat's paw. She kept making small movements while sitting in the sedan chair, and her heart was in turmoil.
It was not until the sedan stopped, the deafening sound of firecrackers exploded in the air, and Huo Gannian's boots with black gold lion pattern stopped in front of her that she stopped her messy thoughts.
My heart and mind were all empty in an instant.
She held her breath nervously.
The sounds of dancing, music, fireworks, firecrackers, and people laughing and celebrating were so loud that it hurt my eardrums and I couldn't hear anything.
But she could clearly hear Huo Gannian sobbing in his throat and saying to her:
"Chen'er, I'm here to marry you."
Huo Gannian lifted the curtain of the sedan chair——
The two had been keeping a distance from each other for most of the day's wedding ceremony, and it was only now that they could look at each other up close. However, for some reason, the moment their eyes met, it was as if they had traveled a long distance of ten years. Their noses felt sore, their hearts were beating fast, and they both shed tears.
This scene made the onlookers laugh even harder, and they kept making jokes.
Yun Chen was embarrassed and panicked, and immediately forgot all the rules that the matchmaker had repeatedly warned him about:
There are gods in the sky and evil spirits on the earth. When the bride gets out of the sedan chair, her feet must not touch the ground or the mud, otherwise she will offend the evil spirits and her marriage will be unhappy.
She completely forgot what she had said. Just as she stood up to get out of the sedan chair, her shoes were almost stained with mud, but a figure rushed over quickly and put his hand under her shoes.
The heavy sole of the bride's shoe stepped precisely on the stranger's palm, leaving a deep red mark immediately.
Before Yun Chen could see who this person was and say "Sorry, did I hurt you when I stepped on you?", he felt the palm lifting him up with force.
A familiar voice was drowned out by the noisy crowd around it. I couldn't make out the timbre, only a deep and powerful sentence could be heard:
"The bride is walking steadily. It's smooth and easy—"
The voice was very familiar, a little choked, but more of a smile and relief.
Yun Chen couldn't remember who it was at the moment and wanted to see who it was.
But the man lowered his head even deeper, pushed her onto Huo Gannian's back, and turned around to get into the crowd. Yun Chen only saw the tall and familiar figure, and a touch of red sleeves under the guard's clothes, but he couldn't see anything else.
The people's cheers grew louder, and Huo Gannian clapped her hands to call her attention back.
Huo Gannian and Yun Chen held hands amidst the overwhelming cheers of blessings, and bowed to the heavens and the earth...
The wedding ceremonies were carried out one by one.
Unlike usual, after the ceremony, the groom entertained the guests while the brothers made a fuss in the bridal chamber.
Huo Gannian raised a glass of wine, toasted everyone, and then he and Yun Chen boarded a huge sailing treasure ship that the Huo Gang had spent a huge amount of money to build.
They said they wanted to get married and then travel south to enjoy the mountains and rivers.
Come back after the 100-day wedding leave is over.
Except for a few trusted followers, he brought no one else with him. Even the guards were boarded in eighteen small boats, accompanying him from a distance.
It was obvious that she wanted to spend some time alone with Yun Chen, and no one was allowed to disturb her.
Friends, relatives, guests, and common people, the drunk Yun Wang and his wife Zhu, Yun Liancheng, Yun Lan and Yun Tian... Duan Jie and Rong Jiang... students from the three sects... common people and soldiers of the Tianwei Army... everyone was laughing and joking on the shore, watching the treasure ship sail away.
Rong Yi, the restless monkey spirit, jumped up from the crowd, swung the handcuffs and chains on his wrists, and yelled at the boat at the top of his voice: "Boss! Drink more Yang Qi--" and received a remote uppercut from Yun Chen.
Amidst the blessings, the treasure ship sailed farther and farther away.
As the fleet entered the Luozi River, all the people and objects on the shore became blurred, and the surroundings finally became quiet.
Yun Chen rubbed her face which was stiff from laughing, looked at Huo Gannian who was doing the same thing as her, and after exchanging a glance, she burst out laughing.
Only then did Yun Chen notice that Huo Gannian had an injury on his palm. Judging from the bandage, the injury was quite serious.
She quickly held up his hand and opened the cloth to check with concern:
"What happened? Where are you hurt?"
Huo Gannian was just like the Sichuan opera master who could change his face. All his aloofness, dignity, and the appearance of an imperial teacher were gone. He threw himself into Yun Chen's arms and said with a pout:
"I got hurt so as not to delay my wedding. It hurts so much..."
Yun Chen quickly blew on him gently, and when he removed the cloth, he found that his skin and flesh were intact. It should be just the bones that were injured, and he seemed to be fine at the moment.
She knew that she had been fooled by this green tea bitch again, so she threw down the towel and prepared to deal with him.
Someone, however, stared at her bright face with a deep gaze, having already been captivated by the way she puffed out her cheeks and blew air. His Adam's apple moved, and he swallowed -
Before Yun Chen could see anything clearly, someone had already pounced on him.
"Hey, what are you doing? We're on deck, in broad daylight, it's not even dark yet!"
"There's no one on this nine-story treasure ship except you and me. The only person is the boatman, who's on the first floor, eight floors away from us! I even specially found a boatman who's hard of hearing. Seriously, Chen'er, believe me."
After saying that, Huo Gannian picked up Yun Chen and went straight to the wedding room that had been prepared in advance...
The bright red petals peel off layer by layer, revealing the snow-white and delicate stamens.
The fragrant wind and mist make one intoxicated without drinking, and the hazy red tent shrouds pairs of figures.
Heaven and earth unite, bones and blood blend.
A touch of bright red and a tear slid down her face at the same time.
He tenderly kissed her brows that were slightly furrowed in pain, kissed away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then kissed the thin layer of sweat from her temples.
"Don't cry, Chen'er. It's all my fault. It will be fine soon..."
No matter how much you coax or lie, you still have to do what needs to be done.
It was not until he saw her cheeks flushed, her clear eyes watery, and her distressed look of wanting to cry but not being able to, that he finally softened his heart, satisfied and withdrawn his attack. He hugged her tightly and smiled softly:
"Chen'er, after ten years, I finally know the answer."
She fell into his arms, soft and gentle, her voice filled with a charm and softness that even surprised herself:
"What?"
He lowered his head and said nothing, leaning against her chest and smiling for a long time before he said ambiguously:
"I've said it before—you look so beautiful when you cry..."
"Oh, stop it!"
She covered her face with her hands in shame, which gave someone a second chance to conquer the city.
She hurriedly pulled the quilt to block it here and there, but in the end she failed to defend anything and was defeated twice.
Seeing that it was just past dusk and it was not dark yet, Yun Chen had a feeling that the night would be long and difficult after going through this twice.
Facts proved that her premonition was correct.
It's just that the timing was wrong.
It’s not just one night that’s “difficult to get through”, but the following one——
One hundred days.
The treasure ship and the fleet sailed southward, passing through many wonderful valleys and rivers.
Unfortunately, Yun Chen didn’t look at any of them.
For dozens of days in a row, except for the seven days of menstruation when you can take a break, don’t even think about enjoying the scenery at other times!
She hadn't even gone down to the ninth floor of the treasure ship!
That guy is indeed an overage boy who has been holding back for more than 20 years. Apart from drinking water and eating, he is always busy with that thing...
It's like a lion who, after a lifetime of vegetarianism, finally tries meat and suddenly discovers how delicious it is. Eating meat is so much fun! And you never get tired of it or feel full!
He dragged Yun Chen to study the mysteries of the human body every day, wishing he could come up with a hundred different ways.
Yun Chen also found it fresh and interesting at first. After two days of cooperation, he found that it was just as Yan Lang said, replenishing his Yang energy and making him feel energetic and vigorous.
But after a long time, she couldn't stand it anymore. She suffered from back pain and dizziness all day long.
Look, she had just made up for seven days of sleep and drank ginseng as if it were water. When her body recovered a little, she felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end. She intuitively felt that in the dark, a hungry wolf that had not eaten for seven days was staring at her with glowing eyes.
She pretended not to see it, quickened her pace, picked up three incense sticks, knelt on the deck with great piety, and whispered:
"Please, Moon Fairy, I know my period just ended, please do it again!"
This little look made Huo Gannian laugh so hard that he bent over.
Yun Chen got angry when he saw his flushed face and glared at him fiercely.
Someone knew that he had gone a bit too far, so he smiled ingratiatingly and hurried over to Yun Chen, massaging his legs, waist, and arms, apologizing continuously.
He has no choice, he can't control it.
As soon as he saw Yun Chen, he wanted to touch him, and after a few touches, he wanted to kiss him, and after a few kisses, he wanted to hug him.
After being hugged, his whole body became uncontrollable and his mind was filled with thoughts of how many moles Yun Chen had on his body.
He was massaging her thighs for just two times when, for some reason, Yun Chen came into his arms.
I don't know what happened anymore, oh my, how did I end up on the bed...
An hour later, Yun Chen collapsed on the couch exhausted, his face flushed, his brows furrowed in both charm and annoyance:
"I don't care, we'll sleep in separate rooms starting today!"
Huo Gannian raised his phoenix eyes slightly, his dark eyeballs turned slightly, and a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He agreed without saying a word.
So Yun Chen fell into the next room to catch up on his sleep.
Little did she know that she would soon pay the price for her careless remarks.
The whole day passed peacefully. Just as it was getting dark, Huo Gannian came over and said seriously:
"Chen'er, I have new clothes, they are very beautiful. Can you come over and help me see if they fit me?"
Yun Chen really thought that the husband asked his wife to help look after the clothes. The little white rabbit was completely unprepared and was dragged into the room.
He blew out the light, and she felt something was wrong:
"Hey, hey, didn't you say you wanted to look at the clothes? Why are you blowing out the lights?"
"There's moonlight, so you can see. Didn't you say my clothes are really beautiful? Take a closer look tonight."
She suddenly realized that this guy actually remembered what she said when she first joined the Huo Gang ten years ago and fell into the bathtub while catching a cat! She said to herself, "Oh no!" Before she could run, she was pushed down on the couch again...
On the second night, Huo Gannian didn't ask her to look at clothes anymore, but instead asked her to look at some rare and precious picture albums.
When he opened the first page, he saw a naked man and woman. Yun Chen was a little slow, but he didn't run away.
On the third night, he said there was a mouse under the bed.
This newly built treasure ship! Sailing on the sea! He said there are rats!
Trick Yun Chen into catching mice.
On the fourth night, he said with certainty that a talking bird with colorful feathers flew to the head of his bed and sincerely invited Yun Chen to come and watch it.
On the fifth night, he swore to heaven that there was a ghost in the house and was so scared that he couldn't sleep alone.
The Sixth Night...
The Seventh Night...
This has been a lie over and over again.
Yun Chen also suffered one setback after another... and then another setback...
