"That's enough, Li Shuo, let go!" Li Rui shouted to stop him.

"Brother!" Li Shuo glared dissatisfiedly, and Li Rui was not to be outdone.The eyes of the two brothers met tit for tat, and after a while, it was Li Shuo who first compromised.

With a "tsk", he put down the priest who was being held by the collar, but he still said, "I want to check the secret passage myself!"

"It's okay, just take His Royal Highness Li Shuo down." The Pope said to the priest, who nodded bravely.

"I'll go too." Miao Hanchi said.

"What are you doing here!"

"Siyu is also my fiancée, so of course I'm going to see her."

"Who's yours? She's clearly mine—"

"Enough!" Before Li Shuo finished speaking, the emperor, who had been silent for a long time, slapped the armrest of the chair suddenly, making everyone silent, "Now that the saint is gone, what's the use of arguing here? This kind of kung fu is better than thinking about how to get people back!"

The two were speechless after being taught a lesson, they could only stand there and bow their heads guiltily.

"Although the Holy Maiden's ability can jump space, the distance is not very long. Tell me to send guards to search near the royal city immediately, and make sure to find it back!"

"Yes!" Li Shuo, who commanded the "Sword of the Guard" of the capital's imperial guards, replied loudly.

"Just in case, send an order to temporarily close all the customs in Capital Star and prohibit going out! General Ji, you also send some people to guard the customs to prevent anyone from picking up the saint."

"Obey." Ji Chongshan stood up and gave a military salute.

The emperor rubbed the bridge of his nose wearily, and when he let go of his hand and raised his head, he was a little surprised to find that Ji Chongshan was still standing where he was.

"Your Majesty," Ji Chongshan said in a timely manner, "There is still one thing that has not been dealt with, and we cannot just leave the church like this."

"what?"

"What should we do with the marriage snatching ceremony?" Ji Chongshan asked, "Although the saint has escaped, the ceremony has not been suspended yet..."

This problem made the emperor feel even more headache.

The ceremony of "grabbing a marriage" is held in front of the gods, that is to say, it is equivalent to a ceremony of offering sacrifices to the gods, and it also includes the symbol of theocracy and the majesty.Forcibly disrupting the ritual process or announcing an interruption would be tantamount to provoking theocracy with kingly power. He did not want to easily break this tacit understanding when the imperial family and the church had maintained a balanced relationship for so many years.

"Since it is a god's ceremony, it is natural for God to decide." The emperor made a decisive decision, "My lord Pope, let you, God's spokesperson on the ground, make the decision!"

The Pope stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes: "Well, according to tradition, the two people who can finally stand on the sacred covenant ground are the husband and wife recognized and blessed by God... Although the disappearance of the saint is an accident, it is still In my opinion, as far as the outcome of the ceremony is concerned, it doesn't seem to have any effect..."

"Lord Pope, what do you mean?" Miao Hanchi, who was the first to react, finally lost his composure and asked in horror.

"Congratulations to Your Highness Li Shuo and Major General Miao," the Pope just smiled, "Now you are legally married by God..." He glanced at the sex of the two, and changed his words in time, "Husband and wife! "

……

Miao Hanchi couldn't remember how the farce in the church ended.

He only remembered that after the pope's voice fell behind, he gasped and tried to distinguish the emotion of joking from the other person's face, but to no avail.

But after a short surprise, the emperor and other nobles didn't know what to think of, and immediately smiled and praised in unison.Everyone was congratulating him and... hell!And that bastard Li Shuo, wish them a happy wedding?

In this boring and nauseating atmosphere, he felt a gust of cold air crawling up his tailbone and finally rushing into the pineal gland of his brain, making his whole body and surroundings feel cold. icehouse……

md, he was really stimulated and lost control of his abilities!

Following Ji Chongshan back to the command tower of the First Military Region in a daze, Miao Hanchi finally couldn't hold back his facial nerves, and covered his eyes with his hands in shame.

Fortunately, he was not the only one who was ashamed at that time, Li Shuo, who was also hit hard, also ran away in an instant. The heat wave that ignited directly touched the fire-fighting facilities of the Saint-Bleu Cathedral in Cary, and the sprinklers on the ceiling made everyone drown A drowned chicken... With such a comparison, Miao Hanchi felt much better in his heart.

"...you are going to prepare soon."

While he was in a daze, Ji Chongshan said something to him, but Miao Hanchi didn't hear everything, only heard the last sentence.

"Preparing for what?" He asked subconsciously.

"Your wedding." Ji Chongshan took it for granted, "If you want to ask for marriage leave, you need to apply in advance."

"Teacher!" Miao Hanchi raised his head in shock and anger.

"I know what you want to say." Ji Chongshan said, "But this is something that has been decided in front of all the nobles, as well as the emperor and the Pope, and it cannot be changed."

Miao Hanchi tried his best to calm himself down, and said quickly and urgently: "No, not necessarily! Teacher, you are the only general in the military department, and even the royal family must look at your face. If you can help I--"

"No, I won't go." Contrary to Miao Hanchi's expectation, Ji Chongshan refused him without waiting for him to finish speaking.

Miao Hanchi sat on the chair and didn't react for a moment.

He seldom made any demands on Ji Chongshan, but as long as the demands were reasonable enough, his teacher never refused him.So he is a bit puzzled now, it is a completely absurd decision for him to marry two big men like Li Shuo, why did his mentor reject him?

"I'm not going to help you reject this marriage, it's not that I don't want to help you." Ji Chongshan shook his head, "But even if I go, the result will not change, but will only get worse. "

Hearing what the other party said, Miao Hanchi's brain, which was occupied by anger and irritability, began to regain its composure.He thought for a while, and widened his eyes in surprise when he thought of something: "Don't you mean—"

"Why do you think the emperor agrees with the Pope's decision to marry you and Li Shuo? Don't forget, Li Shuo is the second prince of the empire. If the emperor treats his son, even if it is the result of a ceremony, the Pope can still let the Pope marry him." Zong explained a more reasonable way to deal with it."

Ji Chongshan said in a deep voice: "There is only one thing that such a result will be, and that is that the emperor wants you to marry Li Shuo!"

Miao Hanchi wanted to laugh a little.

The reason why he agreed to participate in this "marriage snatching" was because Li Shuo suddenly asked the emperor and the pope for a marriage, so Murong Siyu rushed to see him in the middle of the night and begged him for help.He has always loved her dearly, so he agreed without hesitation, and that's why he also proposed to her the next day, and this ceremony happened.

"What is the royal family thinking? Isn't their purpose to marry the church by marrying back the saint, so as to gain the support of theocracy..." How could they set their minds on him?

Or was he the target at the beginning, and the proposal to Murong Siyu was just a cover?

Miao Hanchi felt a little pain in his head, he couldn't help reaching out and rubbing his forehead.

Even now, he is completely unwilling to think about this possibility, otherwise he would not be able to imagine what kind of role the saintess played in this plan... But even if he doesn't think about it, he still can't ignore the current "Murong Si" Yu has escaped" this fact.

He automatically recalled that night in his mind: the saint stood in the night, the full moon in the sky was so dazzling, but she stood in the deepest and darkest shadow, as if she could never be shrouded in light and hope.

"Please, help me."

When she said this, her voice was still trembling, but her whole figure was still stubbornly upright.

"I only have you."

These sigh-like words occupied his brain like a ghost, and Miao Hanchi felt the cold air gradually spread from his body again.

If she had planned to run away from the start.

If she didn't want to marry him or Li Shuo from the beginning.

Then why did she come to pray for his help that day...

"Han Chi, are you okay? Han Chi!"

Ji Chongshan's yell woke up Miao Hanchi, who was trapped in memories and depression. He came back to his senses and wiped his forehead, only to find that he was covered in a layer of cold sweat.

Seeing his lover like this, Ji Chongshan collapsed on the back of the chair exhaustedly, his already old face seemed to have added many wrinkles: "I hurt you."

"How could this be the teacher's fault..."

"But if it weren't for the military power in my hands, the emperor wouldn't be following you."

Miao Hanchi was dumbfounded.

"I'm old," Ji Chongshan turned his head to look out the window, the mountains in the distance through the glass seemed so blurred and far away, "I'm going to retire in less than a year, and everyone knows that the only thing I like is Your heir is you..." He paused, repeating, "I killed you."

"Teacher..." Miao Hanchi had never seen Ji Chongshan so old and helpless, which made him ignore his previous dissatisfaction with the marriage, and felt pain and sadness in his heart.

"In short, neither you nor I can resist this marriage...at least not now." Ji Chongshan said to Miao Hanchi to hide his fatigue.

Miao Hanchi pursed his lips: "I know."

"The wedding should be scheduled in three days. You should take advantage of these three days to prepare well..."

"...Yes, then I will take my leave." Miao Hanchi took a deep breath, bowed to Ji Chongshan and walked out of the command room.

Right now, his mind is still in a mess, he just wants to go back to his residence and have a good rest before making a long-term plan.But just as he reached the stairs, he heard a disgustingly familiar voice behind him.

"Hey, isn't this Major General Miao? Why are you still in the command tower? Shouldn't you be staying at home to prepare for your marriage? I see, you are here to ask for a marriage leave, right? I haven't congratulated you yet, you can marry so easily The royal family, from now on, it will also fly on the branches and become a phoenix, hahaha..."
