beg for chivalry

The firecrackers rumbled outside the house, exploding like thunder.The shoulder curtain embroidered with colorful phoenix and peonies swayed slightly in the wind, and the red ball bells hanging at the four corners rang again and again. The bearers carried the sedan chair up the bluestone steps, walking amidst the sound of gongs, drums, suona, and blessings.

It was a rare and lively time in Fengyuan City, the streets and alleys of Fangzhi were crowded with people, even the beggars rushed out of the Shefan Temple, grabbing broken bowls and trying to sneak into the banquet to get some food and wine.Everyone stretched their necks and squeezed to the side of the road, wanting to catch a glimpse of the girl's happy event from the wooden lattice of the sedan chair, and want to get married through the door.

The noise outside was loud, Yu Qiuxia hid in the room, plugged her ears and looked around.He was very panicked, his palms were covered with sweat, he had never been so panicked since he came out of the womb.

Even if it was a fake show, he still had to get married today.

At noon, Xi Niang brought him to the courtyard of Gao's family, put a green official uniform with a seahorse patch on him, and told him to hide it if the sedan chair came.He didn't understand the rules of these wedding rituals, he followed what she said in a daze, and he really took the wedding ceremony seriously.

Yu Qiuxia's heart was beating extremely fast, as if several horses were chasing each other in his chest, and he paced the courtyard no less than ten laps.Walking from the lacquered wooden door to the red hall, from the north guest room to the south gallery room, I was quite distraught along the way, stumbled and bumped a row of kiln vases and pots.

But he changed his mind: "Everyone has to be flustered the first time, but not the second time. This is the first time I'm going to worship with someone, so I should be a little flustered." So he breathed a sigh of relief, and felt I'm not so scared anymore.

While waiting for the sedan chair to arrive, he stuck the dagger to his back and hid it under the official uniform.Song Wen made him a little uncomfortable, but after all, having a knife in his hand can make him feel at ease.

He remembered Sanniang's entrustment, and thought that if there were gangsters who came to make trouble in the bridal chamber, he would definitely teach the bastard who made Sanniang sad.As for the girl Sanniang, he really didn't have the slightest idea, he hasn't been crowned yet, and Sanniang is not as good as Ji.Yu Qiuxia likes her clever mind, but she hasn't reached the point where she wants to talk about marriage, so she feels a little regretful at this moment: Although it's a fake show, but when the time comes, they will really pay their respects and enter the room, won't it? Won't it be rumored three times and four times?What's more, he heard that women have to sit in a bridal sedan chair once in a lifetime. After thinking about it, he was really afraid of delaying the girl.

Yu Qiuxia was thinking wildly, when suddenly he heard loud gongs and drums at the main entrance, it turned out that the sedan chair had arrived.He hurriedly jumped up, climbed onto the roof tiles, and sneaked to the edge of the bamboo garden to peek at the scene outside.

Crimson peaches and yellow plums are planted in the garden, their youthful blossoms are shining brightly, and the flower bones are delicate and exquisite on the branches. When the breeze blows, there will be a rain of brilliant flowers, like golden armor scales shining brightly, and red clouds abounding.He poked his head out among the flowers and leaves, and caught a glimpse of the big red wedding sedan chair parked in front of the door, with phoenix feather phoenix trees and brocade clusters of peonies embroidered on the curtain.

The team welcoming the relatives was mighty and mighty, and at this time people's heads were rushing in front of the compound.Amidst the earth-shattering suona and firecrackers, a girl in a red coat came to the side of the sedan chair and stretched out her hand to hold the bride. The door curtain moved slightly, and a figure in a red satin and gold patterned dress and a red hijab came out.

Yu Qiuxia thought to himself: "This little girl is in a big fight."

It was a little far away, and he couldn't see the man's appearance clearly.His current mind is only on how to protect Zuo Sanniang from being bullied by bullying, so he looked around in the streets and alleys to see if there are any scoundrels wandering around, but unfortunately the streets are full of shadows at this time, with heads full of faces. They were all huddled together, unable to see why.

A child's voice came from the corridor: "Groom—" Boys and girls carrying sugar mandarin ducks and phoenix flower candles ran into the court, and they were looking for the groom.Yu Qiuxia hurriedly jumped down from the gray tiles, patted the dust on her knees, and pretended to come out.

He was dragged by the children into the red hall, and he saw a wooden saddle beside the door from a distance, and the girl walked in front, holding the bride's hand as she straddled the saddle.The musicians who played the joy followed suit. Xi Niang congratulated the safety and surrounded the figure.

The accompanying people were very nimble, and within a short time they lit the joss sticks, set up the altar, and set off firecrackers crackling by the courtyard.Yu Qiuxia was a little uncomfortable, the man in the gold pattern and red clothes stood in the hall, he seemed to be very stiff and rigid, his face was covered by the red hijab, so he couldn't see the expression on his face.

Taking advantage of the hustle and bustle of Sui Lisheng, Yu Qiuxia rushed up and asked in a low voice: "Sanniang, did that scoundrel stop you on the way to welcome the bride today?"

He was a little worried, and said again, "If someone kills you later, I will protect you. Don't run around, just hide behind me."

After waiting for a long time without getting a response, he felt that the firecrackers were too loud for Zuo Sanniang to hear clearly, so he simply let go and said it again.

The man didn't answer him, and nodded slightly after a long time.

Yu Qiuxia thought she was very shy, and he was relieved. It seemed that he was not the only one who was flustered, and he was not embarrassed, and San Niang would not be laughed at if he told it later.

He glanced at the bride, but saw that the man was wearing a red silk shirt, a double-breasted satin gown, embroidered shoes, and a red square scarf on his face. The peony and phoenix embroidered with gold thread on the clothes were shining in the candlelight.He felt that Sanniang looked really good in this outfit, with a delicateness that he couldn't see usually, and she was beaming.

It's just a little strange, Sanniang used to walk beside her, but she was shoulder height, but standing in front of him today, she seems to be about the same size as him.But he is not a fussy master, he just said that he had misremembered, guessing that this girl put a few more layers of embroidered pads in her shoes today.

Yinzan and Tongzan asked them to take their seats, Yu Qiuxia followed them ignorantly, went to the front of the hall to make offerings to the tablet, cut ribbons for mandarin ducks, offered incense and kowtowed, not knowing whose ancestors he was paying homage to.The bride did the same without saying a word.

When he was about to pray to heaven and earth, he panicked, fearing that these few visits would delay Sanniang's life, so he whispered to the bride. "San Niang, hasn't the show come to fruition yet? The fake show is about to come true."

The bridesmaid was already saying loudly: "One bow to heaven and earth——"

The man in red ignored him and bowed down first.Yu Qiuxia had no choice but to do so.

After the two of them had finished their worship, the male and female guests rushed up to the bridal chamber at once, sprinkled dates and chestnuts on the tent, made a scene, sang some lewd songs, and took the opportunity to embrace the bride's waist holding hands.

On the flower mat are some little things like ointment, Xifo, and Cistanche pills.Yu Qiuxia stayed in the Zuichun Garden for a while, knowing that these were just for fun, her face felt a little hot.He quietly glanced at the bride who was sitting on the edge of the bed, she was just sitting quietly, without making a sound, like a wooden peony flower in a vase.

-

Jin Wu was very upset. He put on his hijab and twisted the locust stone over and over in his wide sleeves.

I don't know what went wrong with Sanniang and Yan Jiubian's arrangement. They invited some regular guests from the Drunken Spring Garden.Earlier he thought it was just killing a Sanzhu disciple of Tianshan Sect, but there was really no need for such a battle, so he repelled everyone in the Water Department, now he regrets it very much.The people in Zuichun Garden are all bold masters, teasing them with secret opera spring paintings, and even pushing him to Yuqiuxia.

When the commotion subsided, there were only the two of them left in the room, but it was already full of smog, the curtains were torn crookedly, date stones and spring painting pages were scattered everywhere.Yu Qiuxia's face was as red as hot boiled shrimp, he squatted on the ground and picked up the bottle, and by candlelight saw the words "sea dog kidney" and "helping love fragrance" written on it, his hands suddenly seemed to be burnt Usually tucked into the sleeve.

After finally tidying up, he leaned against the corner of the bed, sighed and said: "Okay, you rest first, and I will stay here next to you. Don't be afraid if the Shaw villain wants to kill him in the middle of the night, if you stay here, you You won't be bothered by him."

Yu Qiuxia looked at the official uniform on her body, still a little uncomfortable, frowned and said, "I'm just afraid of wronging you... Rumors grow the fastest, if you meet a good person in the future, it will be the other way around. "

He was chattering, when suddenly he felt a red cloud floating around his eyes, and a light shadow shrouded his face.At some point, the bride had already leaned against him and reached out to hug him.

Yu Qiuxia froze: "Sanniang, I didn't expect to marry a wife this year, nor did you expect to depend on a poor boy for the rest of your life..."

In the middle of speaking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the scar on the palm of the hand, the new flesh was light in color, like a long worm in the dim candlelight.There are calluses on the tiger's mouth and wrist, which are obviously the traces of using the sword all the year round.In an instant, Yu Qiuxia shuddered—how could this be Sanniang's hand?

Shot but in an instant.

Jin Wu clasped the lancet that had slipped out of his sleeve, and stabbed fiercely at the man in the crook of his arm!

This can be regarded as a dangerous move, if it wasn't for the soft armor hidden under the red shirt, he would not want to get half a foot closer to this person.Mizubu often uses this shady method, one moment is tender and affectionate, the next moment he hurts others secretly, there is no room for mistake.

It's a pity that the person killed this time is indeed not extraordinary.

The assassin only felt that the person surrounded by him was like a swimming snake, as soft as boneless, Yu Qiuxia twisted his shoulder in an instant, slipped out from his arms, and at the same time put his hand on the loose pattern knife behind his waist.

First cut, flawless!

The colored curtains and candles in a room split instantly, and the flames died out.The knife was like a strong wind pulling willows, rushing toward the head, the paper windows and doors were knocked over, and the hanging screen mirror frames smashed to the wall, shattering into pieces on the ground.

The wind of the knife lifted the red scarf covering Jin Wu's head, revealing a gloomy ghostly face.With a blue face and long fangs, and eyes as bright as lights, it is exactly the Rakshasa ghost that you can only see in the engravings.Yu Qiuxia shuddered in fright at first, then tried to smile and said: "Lady, you are really descended from heaven..."

When Jin Wu saw that saber technique, he was stunned. He remembered seeing it once in Haijin two years ago, but now he doesn't care about it so much.He jumped up suddenly, he couldn't succeed in one blow, and he couldn't miss the second sword.There are a hundred darts hidden in his clothes, and the hickory nuts are jumping. He just doesn't believe that today he will not be able to take the life of this messy groom.

Seeing the figure flying towards him like lightning, Yu Qiuxia drew the knife in his hand and touched the corner of the room, cold sweat slid down his cheeks and dripped onto the official uniform.There is only one thought in his mind now:

...It seems that today is not a marriage, but a dark marriage with him!
