Chapter 164 Okay, okay, take care, King Zhan!
Wu Shanshan closed her eyes and threw the hydrangea high into the air, without even glancing at the noisy crowd below. At this moment, she felt both nervous and expectant.
The hydrangea drew a graceful arc in the air, just like the red thread in the hands of Yue Lao, trying to connect two strange hearts. Wu Shanshan's heartbeat became more and more intense, and her palms were sweating with nervousness.
The crowd was boiling again, cheers and discussions mixed together, and the whole scene was extremely lively.
Under the gaze of the crowd, the hydrangea fell steadily into the arms of a scholar. The scholar looked gentle and elegant, with a unique bookish air between his eyebrows.
It was the young man who had had a brief conversation with Murong Zixi before.
Murong Zixi stood aside, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
She felt that although this scholar was dressed simply, it was difficult to conceal his unique temperament. He seemed to be a good person.
Soon, the servants of the Wu family respectfully invited the scholar to the platform.
Immediately afterwards, the servants of the Wu family began to distribute wedding candies, indicating that the marriage was a foregone conclusion.
Murong Zixi whispered to the maid beside her: "Let's go!" After that, she turned around and left the scene.
Murong Zixi brought a few maids to travel in Anling County.
She walked and admired the scenery around her, feeling very happy.
She took a deep breath. The free air was so comfortable.
In the Zhanwang Mansion, sunlight shines through the carved wooden windows, falling on the bluestone floor like broken gold, forming patches of scattered light and shadow. Jun Feimo stands quietly in the center of the hall, wearing a moon-white brocade robe that makes him look tall and straight, with a cold temperament and an indescribable cool aura.
His eyes, which were as deep as ink, were now shining with bright light, like the brightest stars in the night sky. The poison in his body had been eliminated.
He raised his head slightly, looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, and whispered softly: "Tianyi, has the wedding dress from Yushangfang been delivered?" His voice was low and magnetic, like the melodious sound of a piano echoing in the air.
When Tianyi heard his master's question, he quickly stepped forward, bowed his head and answered respectfully: "Master, the wedding dress has been delivered this morning."
Jun Feimo raised his sword-like eyebrows slightly, a hint of anticipation flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Bring it up for me to see."
"Yes!" Tian Yi responded and turned to leave.
Soon, he returned to the hall with two exquisite wooden boxes in his hands and placed them carefully on the table.
The wooden box is exquisitely made, with lifelike dragon and phoenix patterns carved on the surface, symbolizing good luck, happiness and contentment.
Jun Feimo gently raised his hand, and with a slight movement of his slender fingers, the box slowly opened. As the lid of the box opened, the gorgeous wedding dress inside came into view.
The wedding dress was as red as fire, bright and eye-catching, with exquisite peony patterns embroidered on it with gold thread. The petals were layered and looked so gorgeous that they seemed to be really blooming on the fabric. The collar and cuffs were inlaid with pearls and gems, which sparkled and made it look even more gorgeous and noble.
Jun Feimo's lips curled up into a gentle smile, his eyes full of affection and doting.
He specially ordered someone to sew this wedding dress carefully according to Xier's body shape.
"Hmm? Go and let Xier try it and see if there is anything Xier is dissatisfied with?" Jun Feimo muttered to himself, gently closed the box, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
When he left the palace and came to Xiaoyao Mansion.
The Xiaoyao Mansion before him was unusually quiet, and the entire mansion seemed to be shrouded in an eerie silence.
The courtyard, which should have been bustling with activity, was now empty, and the closed door made people feel a little chilly.
Not even a servant could be found. This sudden change made Jun Feimo frown.
"Tianyi!" Jun Feimo shouted in a low voice and looked at Tianyi with cold eyes.
Tianyi immediately stepped forward and asked respectfully, "Master, what do you want?"
"Is Xier in the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion?" Jun Feimo held the box tightly in his hand.
Tianyi paused and replied, "I'll go to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion right away." After that, Tianyi turned and left, quickly disappearing from sight.
Time passed minute by minute, and Jun Feimo waited anxiously for news.
Finally, Tianyi hurried back with a solemn look on his face.
"Master, Miss Murong is not in the Duke of Huguo's Mansion. Instead, she is out for fun with her two cousins." Tianyi's voice was low and serious, revealing a hint of ominous premonition.
Jun Feimo's face suddenly darkened, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.
He gritted his teeth and whispered, "An Yi, go check."
After receiving the order, An Yi disappeared from the spot in a flash.
Jun Feimo took a deep breath, calmed his inner anxiety, then took a step forward and walked towards the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.
When the old man learned that Jun Feimo had arrived, his eyes flashed, and then he came out with a smile and bowed to Jun Feimo: "Please come in, Lord Zhan. I wonder what Lord Zhan wants to do?"
Jun Feimo frowned tightly, with a hint of displeasure in his tone: "Xier and her cousin went out for a trip? Old Duke, I wonder where Xier went for a trip?" He stared at the old man sharply, trying to find some clues from his expression.
"Oh, it's just that Xier was bored, so Shenqi and Yangshuo took her out to play. They didn't say where they were going, and they will be back in a few days."
Jun Feimo looked at the old Duke with deep eyes, not missing any subtle changes in his expression, and said in a low voice: "Really? Then why doesn't Xier's Xiaoyao Mansion have any servants?"
The old Duke explained calmly, "You're talking about this? Naturally, I think Xi'er doesn't need to live outside, so I asked her to move back to the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion. Then the servants who took care of Xi'er naturally returned to the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion."
At this moment, An Yi suddenly appeared behind Jun Feimo and whispered a few words in his ear.
Upon hearing this, Jun Feimo's body trembled violently, and then he stood up quickly.
The old man was startled and stood up, wondering if he had revealed any flaws just now.
Jun Feimo looked at the old duke deeply and said expressionlessly: "I have something else to do, so I will leave first." After that, he turned and left.
"Okay, okay, King Zhan, take care!" The old Duke smiled as he saw Jun Feimo off, but he felt a little uneasy inside.
