Chapter 285 Qu Hongling comes to Beijing
“Could it be the nine-tailed demon fox?”
Jiang Shouzhong immediately thought of the secret revealed by Rong Yuhe.
It is said that there is a nine-tailed demon fox suppressing under Huailan Lake.
Later Jiang Shouzhong asked Jiang Yi about the nine-tailed demon fox. She said that this demon fox was the demon queen of the previous dynasty, with a vicious heart. Many people blamed her for the demise of the previous dynasty.
Now Yan Changqing wants to go to the bottom of the lake to save people, but this demon fox is the only one left.
Yan Changqing did not say anything clearly, but just asked: "Did you meet Queen Shura when you were in Qingzhou?"
"I did not meet her."
Jiang Shouzhongyao He shook his head and said, "But judging from the situation, Queen Shura has been released. Master, do you think this Queen Shura is powerful?"
Yan Changqing said: "Of course she is very powerful. If the strength is better, It is possible to recover and be number one in the world.”
"Is he so strong?" Jiang Shouzhong was surprised.
Yan Changqing was about to speak when he saw Erliangchu staring at him at the door and said with a smile: "This little girl is still angry with me now. She blames me for not running to protect you before."
He Wave at Erliang.
The latter pouted, turned around and walked out of the house.
The deflated Yan Changqing was a little embarrassed. He coughed dryly, returned to the previous topic, and sighed: "The emperor is inevitably a little arrogant this time. I hope it won't cause too much trouble."
< br>
Jiang Shouzhong suddenly remembered something and didn't know whether he should talk about it or not.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally said: "By the way, Master, this time I met your former second wife."
"Is she okay?"
Yan Changqing did not show any unusual expression on his face, as if he just heard the name of an old friend.
“Uh, how should I put it.”
Recalling the swordsman licking the dog that the woman supported, Jiang Shouzhong couldn't speak directly. He scratched his head and said, "It's a bit unexpected. I can't imagine how you became a couple before."
Yan Changqing said in a gentle tone. :
“Everyone, at every stage, will meet someone they think is right, but people will change. After this stage, they may not be the ones you like.”
“ It makes sense."
Jiang Shouzhong was thoughtful.
At this time, Yan Changqing, who didn't know what he was thinking of, had a hint of worry in his eyes, and said softly: "My first wife was once a member of the Shura clan."
"Huh?"
Jiang Shouzhong was quite surprised when he heard this.
Yan Changqing looked sad, unscrewed the cork of the wine bottle and said:
“Due to some special circumstances of the Shura people, she died soon after giving birth to the child.
As for my daughter, she also has the blood of Shura. If she has children in the future, she will probably follow the same path as her mother. This is what I am most worried about.
Now that Queen Shura has appeared, perhaps she is the only one who can restore my daughter to normal.
It’s just that many clues have not been confirmed yet, so I can only verify them one by one. What others tell me may not be true, but it may not be false either. "
Jiang Shouzhong didn't understand Yan Changqing's last words.
But he could probably guess that Yan Changqing already had clues about his daughter, but he was not sure.
And he also wants to find Queen Shura to save his daughter.
"Master, don't worry, I will definitely help you find your daughter." Jiang Shouzhong said in a deep voice.
Yan Changqing smiled, patted Jiang Shouzhong's shoulder lightly, and said jokingly: "The brat is becoming more and more pleasing to my eyes. If my daughter is really rescued, I will recruit you as my son-in-law."
Jiang Shouzhong was startled and waved his hands repeatedly: "Forget it, forget it, I have enough women around me now."
Of course, Comrade Xiao Jiang has selfish motives.
You, Yan Changqing, have an ordinary appearance, and your daughter probably doesn't have much beauty either, so it's better to refuse in advance.
Speaking of his son-in-law, Jiang Shouzhong suddenly slapped his head: "Master, what a coincidence that you are here in the capital. I want to tell you something happy. Your apprentice and I are going to get married soon."
"Oh, which little girl fell into the fire pit, little girl Xia He?"
Yan Changqing smiled.
Jiang Shouzhong shook his head and said: "It's Ran Qingchen, uh... although we were husband and wife before, she plans to have a new wedding. Master, you should be my elder by then."
To be honest, he had considered inviting Dugu Luoxue.
But then I thought, that was Jiang Yi’s master, so it was not appropriate to invite him.
Right now, I, Jiang Mo, am getting married.
When Jiang Yi gets married to another woman in the future, it would be good to let Master Luoxue act as an elder for once.
“Jiang Wan’s daughter.”
Yan Changqing was a little surprised, then nodded with satisfaction,
"You are so lucky, I have heard about that girl a long time ago. She is very talented and may not be able to become a sword master in the future. Unfortunately, I have never seen her. "
Jiang Shouzhong came to his side and smiled attentively:
"Master, Qingchen also admires you very much. You see, she has officially become your apprentice's wife now, why not give her guidance in the future? Give her some tips on swordsmanship."
Yan Changqing was amused, and pointed his finger at Jiang Shouzhong: "You have a good plan. If you have children in the future, I will have to make a special trip to teach them. Teach?”
"This is what my apprentice means."
Jiang Shouzhong showed his shamelessness.
Are you kidding? This is the best swordsman in the world. If you can get a little bit of his wool, you will make a lot of money.
"Huh, if you have such thoughts, you might as well practice your sword well. With Daomenhetu here, why not worry about becoming the best in the world? You brat, you know how to be lazy all day long."
Yan Changqing laughed and scolded One sentence.
He smelled the aroma of the wine and murmured sadly in a low voice: "Even if I want to teach, I won't survive that day."
The three of them left Zhang Yunwu's house, and Jiang Shouzhong locked the house again.
Yan Changqing looked at the young couple walking in front and refused to talk to him, and said softly:
"I can attend the wedding banquet and be your elder, but you two should try to set the date as early as possible "It's best within three to five days, otherwise I won't be able to make time,"
Jiang Shouzhong nodded quickly: "No problem, Master, I guess it will only be these two days."
"And..."
Apologies appeared on Yan Changqing's face and he said, "I have learned about Zhang Queer from Erliang. If you see that girl in the future, tell her that she practiced The sword is right."
Jiang Shouzhong was stunned.
By the time he reacted, Yan Changqing had disappeared.
Jiang Shouzhong touched Erliang's little head. He didn't understand Yan Changqing's words and asked doubtfully: "What do you mean? Que'er's sword training is right. Could it be that our sword skills are wrong?"
Jiang Erliang said crisply: "Sword skills can be changed as you wish."
Jiang Shouzhong looked at the little Loli swordsman beside him with a strange expression, and suddenly had an absurd idea.
I shouldn’t have bought a future swordsman with two taels of silver.
Thinking of this, Jiang Shouzhong said with a serious face:
"Erliang, although I am your master and you are my servant. But in my heart, I have always treated you as my relative.
In the future, if you suddenly become some kind of sword fairy or sword god, Now that you are developed, don’t forget me. "Jiang Erliang tilted his little head, his crystal-clear eyes full of attachment and smile. He held Jiang Shouzhong's arm and said word by word:
"Master, Erliang will always be there. I am your maid, I will never forget you, and I will never leave you. ”
…
Early the next morning, Jiang Shouzhong bought some gifts, changed into new clothes, and took Erliang to Ran Mansion.
Perhaps because of the change in status and the relaxation and comfort he felt last time, Jiang Shouzhong became inexplicably nervous when he entered the Ranfu compound this time.
It’s like acting as a matchmaker and proposing marriage for yourself.
Hearing that Jiang Shouzhong came to visit, the head of the family, Ran Jinyi, went to greet him personally.
Ran Jinyi said with a smile: "I happened to be planning to go to your place to discuss the wedding with you. I didn't expect that your uncle would come to the door yourself, which saved time."
< br>After hearing Ran Jinyi’s words, Jiang Shouzhong felt relieved.
It seems that Qingchen has already greeted them.
Jiang Shouzhong handed the gift to the servants and apologized: "I should have arranged these things, but I don't have any elders and I really don't understand some procedures, so I can only trouble you, uncle."
< br>Ran Jinyi smiled heartily and said: "What's the trouble? Qingchen is the pearl of my Ran family, and she is my daughter in my heart. Of course, I have to do everything I can to handle major events in life.
The last wedding I felt unhappy, as if my family had attracted a thief, and they had to get married secretly.
Now that girl has finally figured it out, my family can have a great wedding.
But having said that, although Xiao Jiang is the son-in-law, our Ran family will not treat you badly. Who dares to show off to you, the old lady will beat him to death..."
Listen to Ran Jinyi chatting all the way. Naotao, Jiang Shouzhong always kept a smile and didn't interrupt much.
And he also heard Ran Jinyi's subtext.
Although the other party was very enthusiastic, there were some hidden meanings in his words.
Especially the words "son-in-law", Ran Jinyi's tone was a little heavier, intentionally or unintentionally, obviously to remind Jiang Shouzhong to make him aware of his status.
Don't think that just because Qingchen has favored you and become the uncle of the Ran family, you can bully my family Qingchen.
Of course, these warnings were all for Ran Qingchen, and Jiang Shouzhong was not angry.
After the other party finished speaking, Jiang Shouzhong said with a smile: "Uncle, if Qingchen is willing to let his child's surname be Ran in the future, I have no objection, as long as she likes it."
The smile on Ran Jinyi's face suddenly paused, and he stopped subconsciously.
He looked deeply at Jiang Shouzhong, said nothing, just patted him on the shoulder, and led Jiang Shouzhong into the small courtyard where Mrs. Ran lived.
Compared to Ran Jinyi's enthusiasm and warning, Mrs. Ran's attitude after seeing Jiang Shouzhong was pure joy and kindness.
Same as last time, I held my grandson-in-law’s hand and kept talking.
Jiang Shouzhong also learned that Ran Qingchen was not at home, but went to the Xuanji Sword Sect to ask for his master.
When it comes to major events in life, I always hope that the people closest to me can participate.
As for the arrangement of the wedding time, the etiquette process, the invitation of guests, etc., Jiang Shouzhong naturally had no objections and said that he completely listened to his uncle's arrangements.
During this period, Mrs. Ran asked a vague question about Miss Xia He.
Jiang Shouzhong understood what the old lady was worried about and said that he and Ran Qingchen had discussed it and planned to marry Jinxiu and Xia He together in a while.
Although Mrs. Ran was surprised to hear that her granddaughter didn't mind her husband having multiple concubines, she was relieved.
She was afraid that her granddaughter would be arrogant and would always take possession of anything that belonged to her and would not share it.
If Jiang Mo has a concubine, it will be a headache for her to make trouble in the future.
Now that the granddaughter is willing to make sacrifices, it shows that she truly loves Jiang Mo to the core.
......
In the next few days, Jiang Shouzhong and Ran Jinyi were preparing for the wedding banquet while inquiring about Prince Zhou Min.
As a result, I learned from Jiang Yi that the prince had left the capital and headed for Shiwanda Mountain.
This left Jiang Shouzhong speechless.
Originally, he was planning to stage a major assassination incident, but in the end, you ran away.
This is ridiculous.
Jiang Shouzhong wondered if this guy went to the Island of the Dead to cause trouble for the survivors, but when he heard that Zhou Min only brought four guards, he was not sure of the other party's purpose.
But now that Zhou Min has run away, Jiang Shouzhong can only prepare for the wedding quietly.
Assassination of the Emperor?
He doesn't have the ability yet.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye there is only one day left before the wedding.
With the Ran Mansion no longer deliberately concealing it, the news of Ran Qingchen's marriage spread quickly to the entire capital and became a sensational event.
As the most beautiful woman in the capital, Ran Qingchen, who holds the title of Li Zhu in the capital, is undoubtedly the goddess of countless princes, grandsons and princes.
Hearing that the goddess was getting married undoubtedly broke the hearts of many admirers.
At this time, inside an inn in Beijing.
In the hall, many guests were talking about Ran's family's marriage.
“Do you know who Miss Ran is going to marry? I heard it’s a small dark lamp with six doors. It’s impossible.”
“I don’t think it’s possible either. I’ve done it before. There are such rumors."
"I have found out clearly that it is indeed a dark lamp in the six doors, named Jiang Mo."
"Jiang Mo? Never heard of him."
"Hey, I have an impression of this guy. He's very handsome."
"That's just a pretty boy. Damn it, these days. She is still a popular pretty girl, but she has no skills. She can win the most beautiful woman in the capital with just her face. "
"Pa!"
Suddenly, there was a slap on the table. Everyone's discussion.
The people who were startled looked for information and went out.
But it was a girl in a red skirt wearing a bamboo hat, with a graceful figure and a cold temperament.
“I don’t have much ability, so I’m here to slander others. I deserve to be looked down upon by women!”
The girl in the red dress sneered.
The big man who had just mocked Jiang Shouzhong couldn't help but stand up and was about to scold him, but saw the girl flick her wrist, and a chopstick was suspended between the big man's eyebrows, making a buzzing sound.
The art of sword control?
Everyone’s expressions changed and they lowered their heads to eat.
The big man's face was even more pale, his calves were weak, and his legs were trembling.
It wasn't until the girl took back her chopsticks that he slumped down on the chair, his back soaked with sweat, gasping for air, and no longer dared to speak.
After dinner, Qu Hongling came to the room on the second floor.
After a while, Shen Shengyuan appeared in the room and said with a smile: "It's confirmed, the wedding will indeed be held tomorrow, and the location will be in Ran Mansion. We are in time."
Qu Hongling revealed He smiled sweetly, and then muttered displeasedly:
"It's true, sister, if you hadn't informed me earlier, you could have prepared a lot of gifts."
"When do you plan to go to Ranfu tonight? ? "
Shen Shengyuan asked.
Qu Hongling clasped her hands behind her back and walked to the window with light steps. She looked at the Ran Mansion in the distance, shook her head and said with a smile: "No, I will go to the wedding tomorrow. I want to give my sister a big surprise."
