Chapter 425: Robbery
"..."
The boy's hand slowly relaxed and he didn't speak for a long time.
Since that day, the two of them hadn't seen each other very often. Sang Luo was busy socializing and preparing for the wedding, and couldn't spare the time to comfort the sulky little fox. Yun Qi didn't bother her anymore. , and no longer deliberately made trouble to attract her attention like before.
Too settled.
It made Sang Luo a little uncomfortable.
Whenever she fell asleep deeply at night, she would always dream of a person standing in front of the bed and gently touching her face. When she woke up from the dream, the person had disappeared again, as if he had never been there...
Sigh.
She is leaving anyway, so the story ends here, which is pretty good.
A month passed in the blink of an eye, and the weddings of the two clans were almost ready.
As the young master of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan, Yun Rong could not marry into the Red Fox Clan.
Although the Red Fox Clan has developed into a major force in Qingqiu, and can even sit on the same level as those ancient mythical beast families in terms of status, it is still inferior to the Nine-tailed Fox Clan with noble blood. Logically speaking, It was Princess Ji Wan who married into the Nine-tailed Fox Clan, but the old patriarch of the Red Fox Clan only had a precious daughter. He was still waiting for his daughter to take over the family business, so it was impossible for him to marry his daughter out.
After consultation on the engagement day, the clan leaders of the two clans decided to let the two newlyweds marry together and be each other's wife and husband, and not interfere with each other's marriage and concubinage to continue the family's heirs.
Of course, if the two newlyweds sign a partnership contract and become a couple for life, the clan leaders of both parties would not object. However, the Nine-tailed Fox Clan is a race of divine beasts that has existed since ancient times. It is very difficult to give birth to children. With the blood of the Red Fox Clan, I am afraid that It is very difficult to conceive, and it would take thousands or tens of thousands of years at most to produce a hybrid fox beast, which would be unable to shoulder the important task of spreading branches and leaves between the two races.
This marriage is quite free.
Sang Luo didn't sleep all night on the eve of her wedding, letting the waiters dress her up.
There are two large banquets before and after the wedding.
There was a banquet in Guangfu City of the Red Fox Clan. For the sake of convenience, Sang Luo decided to hold a banquet at the Princess Mansion. Anyway, the Princess Mansion was a big enough place.
The latter banquet was held in Fancheng, the land of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan.
In other words, after Sang Luo finished attending the wedding banquet of his clan, he still had to take the Hongluan wedding sedan to Fancheng, the hometown of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan. He was very busy going around in circles.
At the wedding banquet of the little princess of the Red Fox tribe, the old patriarch was very satisfied with the marriage, even more than when he got married. He invited all the famous people in Qingqiu to come over, and all the famous nobles were also very considerate and sent them one after another. In addition to congratulatory gifts, many Beast King clan leaders came in person with their families.
The banquet was laid out, and the drinking water flowed through the winding water.
Several servants in the princess's palace also gathered together at a table. They usually compete for favor, but they don't mind the princess marrying her real husband. Anyway, sooner or later, such a day will come. No matter who it is, it makes no difference to them.
Yun·Qi is not among them.
There was a rockery fountain at the back of the banquet hall. People were busy changing glasses at the banquet, but the place was deserted.
The young man was lying alone on the ground, holding a bottle of wine in his hand. He was already very drunk, and he had already drank every last drop of the bottle of wine in his hand, and his cheeks were as red as clouds.
There were footsteps beside him, and he looked up intently.
A man in a green robe strolled over holding a large pitcher of wine.
He is tall and straight, with an ordinary face, but his whole body has an extraordinary demeanor, especially his pair of begonia red eyes, with a faint cyan surrounding the pupils, which are extremely gorgeous and dazzling.
...disguise.
The Fox clan is good at illusions and seeing through illusions. Yun Qi's face was expressionless, and he was alert in his heart, "Your Excellency is also a distinguished guest of the Princess's Mansion? I have never seen you at the banquet."
"Haha, there are many people at the banquet, and I am just a commoner." The man said with a smile, "Her Highness the Princess and I are acquaintances, and I have done a great favor to Her Highness."
"Since he is a distinguished guest invited by His Highness, he is also my distinguished guest. Why is the reception so inconsiderate? Please tell me why the distinguished guest was not at the banquet enjoying the dance and fun, but he got lost?" The vigilance in Yun Qi's eyes faded slightly, and he stood up and saluted. Show a gentle smile.
"Well, this princess mansion is quite big. Once you go out, you won't be able to find your way back. The scenery here is not bad, but it's much more relaxed than that noisy banquet. Why don't you come and have a drink with me? "The man said.
Yun Qi declined politely, "I'm too drunk to drink, so I won't disturb the guests."
He turned to leave, but the man stepped forward to stop him, "Wait, I have something else to ask you."
A coldness flashed in Yun Qi's eyes, and he moved his fingertips, and then heard the man in front of him say doubtfully, "When I saw you from a distance, I thought the young master of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan had arrived, but when I walked in, I realized You admitted it wrong, you and the young master are brothers?”
The scars on Yun Qi's face have faded a lot, and they don't affect his appearance even from a distance. His eyebrows and eyebrows are exactly the same as those of Young Master Qingqiu. Except for brothers who were born the same child, there are no two people who are so similar in this world.
"I didn't know that the Nine-tailed Fox Clan has two young masters!" the man exclaimed.
Yun Qi's face was expressionless, "Does your guest have anything else to do?"
The man picked up the wine jar, poured a full bowl of wine, and handed it to him, "I have something else to ask. I heard that when the princess married you, she only gave you the title of servant to the king, and your compatriots The brother you gave birth to can marry the princess openly and become the princess’s official husband. He is superior to you in terms of status. Aren’t you envious?”
The young man said quietly, "This is the princess's decision, no one else has the right to interfere."
"Haha, okay, then I should change my words." The man asked for trouble, drank down the wine in his hand, and raised the corners of his lips in an evil way,
"Don't you hate it?"
The young man was shocked, his cold gaze shot at him like a sharp blade, and he said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense in the princess's mansion!"
"Have you never thought in your heart that it would be great if you could replace your brother? Don't you want to exchange identities with him? Let him experience everything you have suffered!" The man's voice seemed to have some kind of weird bewitchment. .
……
Before leaving, he gave the young man a greeting card, "If you need anything, you can come to me and I will be with you at any time."
Yun Qi lowered his head and looked at the greeting card in his hand.
There are only three words written on it——
Yeque Pavilion.
He looked in the direction where the man left, and he had already disappeared without a trace.
He had heard of this place before. Where did this person... come from?
After the three-day flowing banquet, Sang Luo will leave for Fancheng tomorrow morning. Tonight may be her last night here. She thought of the little fox she hadn't seen for many days, and wanted to see him and say goodbye, but when she arrived at Plum Blossom Garden, she couldn't find anyone around.
Kong said that the young master left two days ago and he didn’t know where he was going.
Sang Luo felt regretful and helpless.
Early the next morning, she put on her wedding dress and stepped onto the sedan chair surrounded by everyone.
As soon as he lifted the curtain and stepped into the sedan, Sang Luo noticed that there was another breath in the sedan!
She was horrified, and before she could see who it was, a hand pulled her into his arms.
