They hurriedly sent someone inside to report, and not long after, a maid came out and bowed to Shi Hao, saying, "Master, please follow me!"
Shi Hao followed the maid into the inner room. Although there were pavilions and terraces around, it could be seen that many valuable things had been dismantled.
Going deeper, there were peaks and ridges, and passing through a pink wall, with apricot blossoms everywhere. The maid stayed outside the round gate and did not follow him in.
In front of us stood a pavilion with four pointed corners, red lacquer jade tiles, carved phoenix eaves, exquisite and elegant, surrounded by clusters of flowers. A girl floated out, who else could it be but Yueyaer
At this moment, Yueyaer was not wearing a woolen flowered dress, but a jade red chest-length skirt and a small goose yellow double-breasted top. She had an exquisite bun on her head and a hairpin decorated with pearls.
As soon as she saw Shi Hao, she rushed out like the wind, threw herself into his arms, and started to cry.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Shi Hao asked in surprise, holding her petite and slender waist.
In his impression, this girl was innocent and love to laugh. But when she saw him, she rushed over and cried non-stop, which surprised him.
The girl was crying so hard that he was at a loss for what to do. He could only hold her in his arms, comfort her, and wait until she was exhausted from crying before he picked her up and carried her into the pavilion.
There was not even a maid in the pavilion. There was a round rosewood table and four matching stools in the main hall.
There is a flower stand next to it, a gauze curtain high up, several calligraphy and paintings on the wall, and two large chairs covered with brocade embroidered with purple flowers.
Shi Hao held the girl in his arms, sat on a large chair against the wall, hugged her, and asked, "What happened?"
Yueyaer choked up and said, "I'm getting married?"
Shi Hao couldn't help but frowned: "Get married?" He didn't expect it to be for something like this.
Theoretically, whether Yueyaer gets married or not has nothing to do with him. There are actually quite a few women around him, and he can't really fall in love with every one he meets? People should not be too greedy.
But people always have a strange mentality.
Because the last time in the illusion in Kunlun Secret Realm, at the last moment, he was forcibly pushed away by Yueyaer.
When he pushed Yue'er away, although Yue'er knew that he had done nothing wrong, she still felt a little bothered.
Similarly, before that, he was pushed away by this girl. That was also when he was about to take the last step. The girl couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality, and in panic, she rejected him.
As a man, it was actually quite uncomfortable to be pushed away at that last step.
And he could see that this girl liked him. A girl who liked him and almost had that kind of relationship with him, now suddenly wanted to marry someone else... Who could accept this kind of thing
And it seemed like she herself couldn't accept it, otherwise she wouldn't be crying like this.
He snorted and said coldly: "Did someone force you to marry him? Who is that person?" At this moment he was really dissatisfied.
Logically speaking, he is now a top-grade master with the support of Fairy Shengxuan and Emperor Mei. The Xuan Army is already under his control, and the leader of the Su Army respects him as the young master.
If this is the case and the beautiful girl who likes you is snatched away by someone else, you might as well find a hole to crawl into.
He sneered in his heart, who is this blind person who wants to snatch a woman from me? It seems like he really doesn't want to live anymore.
The girl cried bitterly, choking with sobs, "The Demon Commander of the Xuan Army!"
Shi Hao said: "Humph, I don't care who he is... Wait, who are you talking about?"
Yueyaer cried, "That's the Demon Commander of the Xuan Army...that Crazy Blade Demon Hero."
Ah, it was me... It's okay then!
He put Yueyaer on his thigh and hugged her tightly. He hooked his right hand around her back and shoulders, and put his left hand around her waist. He asked curiously, "Tell me, what happened? I... When did the Demon Marshal force you to marry him? Why did he force you to marry him?"
Yueyaer hugged his waist with her backhand and told him what happened while crying.
After listening to this, Shi Hao roughly understood it. In fact, it was during the time when he went to Yanyun that Xuanfeng Huanzhi and Yue Ketai secretly reached an agreement.
Leaving aside other details for now, the most important one is that Yueyaer, the daughter of the Yueketai family, will marry the Demon Commander of the Xuan Army as a concubine.
For the Yueketai family, if they could be accepted by the Xuan Army, it would mean that the entire family would be able to gain a place in the next dynasty.
From Xuan Feng Huan Zhi's perspective, being able to control Luo Jing without bloodshed is naturally a good thing.
After all, Luojing is one of the few strong cities in China, and the Xuan army is still attacking Chuyin, and its power has not yet crossed the Qinling Mountains. It will be time-consuming and laborious to forcibly attack Luojing in the future. It would be better to take over the entire Luojing directly through this marriage.
The "royal family" has reached the end of its road, and Yue Ketai is now working hard to complete this marriage, so that she can at least sell herself for a good price.
If they really wait until the Xuan Army or the Su Army arrives in full force, the entire clan will basically be destroyed.
In fact, Yueyaer was originally a rich lady, and it was really unfair for her to marry Demon Marshal as a "concubine".
But the Xuan Army was originally established to fight against barbarians, and the demon commander of the Xuan Army could not marry her as his principal wife.
What's more, in the eyes of the world, the next army that will be able to unify the world will be either the Xuan Army or the Su Army.
If the Xuan army unified the world, the Demon Marshal would naturally become the emperor. Even if she was the emperor's concubine, she would be a concubine in the three palaces and six courtyards. In this case, there could be no question of "humiliation".
This agreement was reached in secret. Xuan Feng Huan Zhi had to ensure that the Yue Ketai family would fully commit to the Xuan Army before he would be willing to help in secret.
And Yue Ketai needs the assistance of a large number of people in the martial arts world to control Luojing.
At that time, Shi Hao went to Yanyun, and Xuanfeng Huanzhi was unable to contact him for a while, so he made his own decision.
In her opinion, there was nothing wrong with this matter... She had long known about the relationship between Yueyaer and the young master.
When leaving Kunlun Secret Realm, Shi Hao asked the people of Xie Lian Zong to secretly escort Yue Yaer back to Luojing just in case. Yue Yaotai and Sha Lingshan also knew Yue Yaer.
A girl who originally liked the young master married him as a part of a political marriage.
The young master married a beautiful girl who was already related to him, and took the opportunity to let the Xuan army take over Luojing, so naturally he lost nothing.
But Yue Ketai’s family and Yueyaer themselves didn’t know!
"So, you have agreed to marry that Demon Marshal?" Shi Hao hugged Yueyaer tightly, pretending to be heartbroken.
Yueyaer hugged him and cried.
She didn't know what she should do, and she was definitely unwilling to do it.
But now, the Yueketai family has openly killed the court official and tried hard to draw a clear line between themselves and the "royal family". They have worked hard to achieve this step. If they turn against the Xuan army again because of her, then the whole Luojing will become a battlefield.
Could she really bear to plunge Luojing into a bloody storm just for her? The fate of the entire family depended on her alone, so what could she do
The survival of her family and the safety of the entire Luojing military and civilians made her decide to sacrifice herself.
But he actually came to see her at this time... In this time of chaos and no one can take care of anyone else, he actually came to see her.
This made her unable to control herself any longer and she threw herself into his arms and cried bitterly.
She had never felt so helpless!
Shi Hao picked her up and walked into the inner room, where there were stairs leading up one level after another and covered with gorgeous carpets.
He carried the girl all the way up, carried her into the bedroom, laid her on the couch, and said viciously, "You're going to marry someone else? I came all the way here to find you, and you're planning to marry someone else?"
The girl sobbed: "I, I..."
Shi Hao threatened: "Since you are going to marry someone else, I won't be polite either." and pounced on him.
The girl did not struggle, but took the initiative to please him. The temperature in the room rose, and the fragrance on the table lingered. Unconsciously, the scene that appeared in the illusion of Kunlun Secret Realm last time seemed to reappear.
But this time, the girl did not push him away, but she couldn't help but shed tears.
Shi Hao was quite touched, because if he took one more step, she would not be able to get married. In this world, there are ways to verify whether a woman is a virgin. If she loses her virginity and then marries the "Demon Marshal", she will be courting death, and even the whole family will be ruined.
Therefore, she has not rejected him until this point. In her heart, his position is undoubtedly extremely important.
But this also means that she has given up the entire family and the responsibilities that she should have taken on. The reason she was crying at this moment was because of the guilt and self-blame in her heart.
Just a little more... He just needs to get a little more...
The girl was crying, waiting for her fate to come. She knew that no matter what choice she made, she would regret it for the rest of her life, and she didn't know what to do anymore.
Shi Hao felt distressed, and smiled as he helped her wipe away her tears that looked like strings of pearls: "Don't cry, don't cry! Don't cry, I'll tell you a secret..."
He raised his hand, gently pushed aside the girl's hair, looked at her delicate face with dew on it, and urged her not to cry. Then he lowered his voice and whispered something in her ear.
The girl opened her eyes wide, first in disbelief, then in confusion, and then burst into tears again: "You... don't lie to me?"
Shi Hao said with a smile: "Why would I lie to you about this? But I really didn't know about this matter in advance. I went to the Northeast to do business. They acted on their own initiative. It was probably because they knew the relationship between you and me that they decided to help your Yue Ketai family control Luojing.
"I just happened to pass by here and came to see you, and I just heard what you said now."
The girl was surprised and happy at the same time, but her head was still a little confused, she just felt like she was dreaming. Then she thought, maybe she really was dreaming, how could there be such a coincidence and such a wonderful thing in the world
I couldn't help but reach out and pinch his waist to see if he was dreaming.
Shi Hao smiled and said, "Don't pinch me, I'm not dreaming." He hugged her and smiled, "Can I go in?"
The girl was a little shy and embarrassed under him, and she bashfully said "hmm"... At this point, she didn't care anymore!
If this was a dream, she hoped that the dream would last forever and she would never wake up.
The sun moved slowly, and in the mid-spring, the garden was full of flowers, colorful and beautiful. The warm light of dusk gradually touched the smiling flowers, and all the flowers bloomed, and the pavilions were dyed with color.
The lake in the back garden was rippling with carp playing in the water, chasing each other and tangling with each other. A fish jumped out of the water with a splash, as if disturbing the spring scenery in the garden.
For a moment, although it was approaching night, all the colors became bright and bright.
There was a beautiful woman outside the garden, asking something to the maids who had been driven out earlier, and then she hurried into the garden with a worried look on her face.
At this moment, the garden was completely quiet. The sunset glowed across the sky, with red clouds overlapping each other. The setting sun hung in the west like a big red lantern. The woman entered the pavilion, went upstairs, and came to the door.
The door was closed at this moment. She stood outside the door and listened carefully, but heard nothing.
So he whispered, "Daughter, are you in there?"
The girl in the bed hurriedly responded: "Mom, I'm resting here... What's the matter?"
Chapter 448 Who is not of top quality
Standing outside the door was Yueyaer's mother, "Hui Jian" Ye Xiashu.
Ye Xiashu stood at the door. The door inlaid with colorful glazed tiles was closed tightly. Strings of beads were hung in front of the door, and the linked bead curtains arranged in rows were shining.
Ye Xiashu said softly: "Yueyaer, I heard that Master Zhongyun came to see you today, he..."
The girl in the room hurriedly said, "He... he's gone!" At this moment, she was curled up in the quilt with her head resting on the man's arm, and the man hugged her entire slender body from behind.
It would be terrible if mother came in and saw them in this situation.
Outside the house, Ye Xiashu sighed softly. How could she not know whether the young man who came to look for her daughter had left
If he had really left, why would his daughter keep the door closed so tightly
Ye Xiashu did not expose her daughter's lie, but whispered outside the house: "Yueyaer, you are still young, you don't need to worry about the things at home all the time. If there is someone you like... then go with him, as for other things, you don't need to worry too much. No matter what kind of difficulties it is, your father and I will always find a way to get through it."
She paced a few steps, feeling that this might be the last time she saw her daughter.
Although she was reluctant to leave, she still hoped that her daughter could follow her beloved and stay away from this place of trouble.
She felt that these burdens should not fall on this child. Whether it was Luojing or the family, they were the adults who should bear the responsibility.
In her eyes as a mother, her daughter is still young after all, and she has the right to pursue her own happiness.
Ye Xiashu said softly: "Yueyaer, if you want to leave, those people outside will not stop you. I will go to your father and tell him, and he won't blame you... You know. Take care of yourself outside in the future. You are still young, and your family can't be with you. When you are outside, you must protect yourself."
At this moment, her heart was broken. She knew that after her daughter left, she and her daughter would never see each other again.
But she didn't want her daughter to become a victim of that marriage. She felt that as a mother, she had to support her daughter's choice.
"Yueyaer, leave tonight. Don't worry about your family. Stay away and live a good life." She tried to make her voice sound relaxed. Then, she dragged her heavy steps, walked downstairs step by step, and left in a hurry.
In the room, the girl was embarrassed and pulled up the quilt to cover her blushing face.
She is not a child anymore, she has become a woman!
"Your family is really good to you!" Shi Hao said softly as he held the girl whom he had just turned into a real woman in his arms.
They said that Yueyaer should just leave and not worry about the family. However, the Yueketai clan was able to stabilize the situation in Luojing this time, and the Xielian clan made a great contribution. They changed their minds about the agreed marriage, did they really think that the demon clan was easy to bully
In the eyes of the world, the Demon Sect's means of revenge have always been bloody and cruel.
What's more, with the appearance of the Evil Emperor, the Evil Lotus Sect has become the most powerful among the demon sects, and the speed at which the Xuan Army and the Su Army are expanding is jaw-dropping, and they have almost divided the territory into half each.
Having offended the Xie Lian Sect and the Xuan Army, how would the Yue Ketai family have a foothold in the future
This is not the era when the "royal family" showed off their power.
"Yeah!" Yueyaer said softly, "My brother left, and I am the only one by my mother's side. I, I actually hope that they can live in peace and safety in the future."
Shi Hao pondered and said, "Your brother? Yue Chongliang? Hmm, where is he now?"
Yueyaer said sadly, "He had a falling out with his family. During the chaos in Luojing, he stood against us and even used a sword to kill my father. Later, the rebellion failed and he fled to the northern frontier. But in fact...
Shi Hao said: "During the Qinhuai War, many righteous troops eventually surrendered to the Xuan Army. These people and your brother have an irreconcilable feud. Yue Chongliang killed Zhang Jiusi. During the Qinhuai War, the Xuan Army and the officers and soldiers were in the most tense situation. Zhang Jiusi's son gathered many righteous men to attack Qiulong Ridge to avenge his father. In the end, most of them died in the ambush set by your brother.
"The various forces from Qin Huai who surrendered to the Xuan Army have an irreconcilable blood feud with Yue Chongliang. Although they serve different masters, as long as Yue Chongliang is still around, it will be difficult for the Xuan Army to accept the Yue family's surrender."
