Strange Tale of Qingluan

Shi Chaojing hesitated for a while, finally sighed, and asked him: "Are you really determined to divorce Huirou?" Ding Xuehou nodded affirmatively.Shi Chaojing was unhappy, but had no choice but to reluctantly agree, "Oh, let it go, Aijia can't force you to be a couple."

Immediately, she picked up the ink pen, wrote a decree, stamped it with the Queen Mother's seal, and handed it to Ding Xuehou, "Take it to Huirou, and tell her to pack her bags and move back to the palace earlier." Let's stay. From now on, you will be members of two families, not husband and wife." Ding Xuehou accepted Yizhi, finally heaved a sigh of relief, and thanked Shi Chaojing.

He took this golden opportunity to beg Shi Chaojing again: "Queen Mother, what about... Zhong Ming?" Shi Chaojing slapped the table hard, interrupted his words, and became sullen, "Okay, Li Xuan! The Ai family has already Fulfill your wish, make you divorce Huirou, do you still want Aijia to fail to report to your grandson! You and him can only be in the relationship of monarch and minister, and can never be surpassed!"

Peng was ashamed of this request and could not succeed, so Dingxuehou had no choice but to hold the decree, respectfully said 'resignation' and then withdrew.Back at the mansion, he handed the imperial decree directly to Huirou, the eldest princess of Shengshi who was embroidering.

Hui Rou was stunned for a moment, and asked anxiously, "What is this...?" Ding Xuehou replied calmly, "You can see for yourself the Queen Mother's edict." She immediately put down the embroidery needle and cloth, and took them over. Slowly opened it, took a closer look, and immediately froze, feeling extremely lost, and after a while, asked again: "What else did the Queen Mother say?"

"I tell you to pack up your things early and move back to the palace." Ding Xuehou wrote lightly.Huirou rolled up Yizhi, stood up, and went to pack her things.When she slowly walked by Ding Xuehou's side, she suddenly said lightly: "Congratulations, you can finally be with Zhong Ming in a legitimate way..."

Ding Xuehou didn't move at all, and replied to her indifferently, "I am the same as you now." Then he walked past her indifferently and left the house.Huirou was taken aback again, thinking: Could it be that both sides suffer?

The next day was a day of great joy for the Shen family. Red silk was hung inside and outside the Shen family's house, and there was even intermittent playing and playing in the courtyard, so lively that even the neighbors in the streets and alleys knew about it.The auspicious time is approaching, and guests holding invitation cards come one after another, sit at the table, talking and laughing with each other.

Su Zhongming managed to coax Wen Qian, who was wearing red makeup, into the sedan chair, and then rode a white horse to send her to Shen's house. After that, he sat at the same table with Duke Zhen Guo, and ignored everything.Duke Zhen chatted with him and said, "Your Majesty personally sent the little girl here, I am very grateful!"

Su Zhongming lowered his eyes, put his hands on the desk, and didn't smile or answer.Duke Zhen didn't mind his expression at all, and happily poured him a glass of wedding wine.At this time, the old master of the Shen family greeted, "My family! My family! I'm about to start worshiping, come here!" Duke Zhen put down the jug, said to Su Zhongming, "Your Majesty, I will not wait on you anymore" and hurried Get up and rush over.

Just as Duke Zhen left, a man came to Su Zhongming and sat down.Su Zhongming looked back, indifferent, and continued to lower his eyes. It turned out that the person who just came was Li Xuan, Marquis of Dingxue.Without saying a word, the man picked up the wine glass in front of Su Zhongming, poured down the wedding wine, then grabbed a big orange and began to peel the orange.

"Hui Rou has moved back to the palace, and now I am in charge of the house alone." Ding Xuehou peeled the orange and said to Su Zhongming.Su Zhongming only listened with his ears, not speaking.Ding Xuehou peeled off the orange pulp and handed him two petals, Su Zhongming glanced sideways and ignored it, Ding Xuehou added two or three more petals, and handed them over, Su Zhongming reluctantly reached out to take them.

After eating the oranges, Su Zhongming finally said, "The Queen Mother doesn't allow us to talk about feelings together." Ding Xuehou replied calmly, "I know. It's not obvious, we can secretly..." Su Zhongming complained, "It's all to blame You insist on talking about getting married, and you insist on the queen mother agreeing! If you don’t say anything, the queen mother doesn’t know, and nothing will happen!”

"Yes, it's all my fault, okay?" Ding Xuehou replied, poured a glass of wedding wine, and drank it by himself.At this time, the master of ceremonies shouted loudly, a couple of newlyweds walked into the banquet hall, Shen Yingying supported the bride and became a bride, the master of ceremonies said, "Bow to heaven and earth!" The groom turned around happily, Shen Yingying also helped the bride to turn around, The groom bends his knees, but the bride stands upright, not moving at all.

Seeing this, Shen Yingying urged in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, it's time to pray to heaven and earth." The bride still didn't move, so Shen Yingying could only forcefully pull her to kneel down, but the bride gently pushed her away, and refused to kneel no matter what.Shen Yingying was in a hurry, and called her 'sister-in-law' in a low voice, but saw the bride lift up the red hijab embroidered with mandarin ducks, and shouted, "I don't want to marry!"

Those three short words immediately made the two in-laws feel downcast, and all the guests in the hall were also shocked by the bride's behavior, and began to sigh.Su Zhongming and Dingxuehou noticed something was different, they hurriedly followed the prestige.Duke Zhen in the high hall couldn't help it, and angrily yelled at the bride: "Wen Qian, it's already this time, don't mess around!"

The bride stomped her feet and said aggrievedly: "Father! I don't love him at all, what are you doing marrying him?" Duke Zhen couldn't hold back, and blurted out: "You have to marry if you don't want to marry! The banquet has already been held The guests are watching, do you want your father to lose face in front of so many people!"

Wen Qian snorted coquettishly, and said capriciously, "I just don't want to marry anyway." Duke Zhen was furious and pointed at her, "You, you...!" on the cheek of his own daughter.Before he settled down, Master Shen at the side was afraid that things would become serious, so he hurriedly stopped him, and persuaded him: "Don't fight, don't fight! On a happy day, you have to discuss everything carefully! Why do you need to do it?"

Su Zhongming sat in his seat unusually calmly, watching the scene in front of him like watching a play, Ding Xuehou also didn't move, poured another glass of wedding wine unconsciously, picked it up and drank it by himself.One of Su Zhongming's guards suddenly stretched out again, with the palm facing upwards, Ding Xuehou understood when he saw it, put down the wine glass again, peeled an orange for him, and handed it to him, neither of them said a word, one drank, the other Eating oranges, everyone looks lively.

Wen Qian threw the red hijab on the ground, she was more self-willed, and repeated her words again, "Don't marry! Don't marry! Just don't marry! I want to be a queen, I don't want to be Mrs. Shen and sell rice with him! Dad... ..."

After hearing this, Shen Yun, who had been silent all this time, lost all joy, took off his red robe, threw it on the ground, turned around and walked quickly through the banquet room, no matter how old master Shen called him, he refused to turn back, and went straight out of the banquet hall .Duke Zhen was taken aback when he saw it, and then angrily reprimanded Wen Qian, "It's all your fault, you naughty girl! Now that the groom's official attitude is gone, who will dare to marry you in the future!"

Master Shen persuaded Lord Zhen, "My in-laws... now is not the time to scold my daughter, I have to ask someone to call my child back! Without the bridegroom officer, this happy event will not be possible!" Duke Zhen replied: "Then Why don't you ask someone to call your son-in-law back?" As soon as the words finished, Su Zhongming couldn't sit still, walked out slowly, walked straight through the banquet room, and went out of the house.

Master Shen was very puzzled, and asked Ding Xuehou who was sitting on the seat, "Your Majesty...where is he going?" Ding Xuehou poured wine for himself very calmly, "I don't know, maybe it's meddling, go Have you persuaded the bridegroom?"

Master Shen let out an 'oh', and the only thing left to do was to make sure there were no guests and persuade Wen Qian.Dingxuehou poured the wine for a long time, but he didn't see the cup was filled. He opened the jug and saw that there was no more wine. Before he knew it, he drank the whole jug. "Hey, I'm out of wine here." Upon hearing this, Master Shen quickly ordered his servants to serve a pot.

Su Zhongming turned around outside, and found Shen Yun in the corridor leading to the yard. The man was frowning and punching the pillar with his fist. "Shen Yun." Su Zhongming stepped forward and called him.Shen Yun didn't look back, but just blurted out indifferently: "What are you doing here? What are you doing here with me!"

Su Zhongming was stunned, feeling that the man was like a lost and resentful leopard, and said slowly: "I just came to persuade you not to be too sad, getting married depends on the marriage."

Shen Yun lowered Wo Chengquan's hand, "You are Your Majesty, since you said so, I dare not oppose you, but! You have to admit that she rejected me because of you! She also said just now that she wants Becoming a queen like before is already clearly announcing to everyone that the person she loves is still you!"

Su Zhongming said helplessly: "That's her unrequited love, and it has nothing to do with me." Shen Yun laughed for a while, and said: "It's ridiculous, I love her, but she loves you, but you love someone else." , suddenly curious, "Who is the person you love? It can't be... that person loves someone else?"

Su Zhongming snorted and crossed his hands in the monster's room, "That's not true! It's just that he beats up like a rascal, and I can't help it. I also think he is very good, so I agreed to him, and the relationship was reluctant."

Shen Yun was a little interested, and asked curiously, "Which family is this woman? She sounds even more savage than Wen Qian." Su Zhongming didn't answer, but just asked him, "You know she is very savage?" Shen Yun replied: " You haven't answered my question yet."

"Uh... this... you'd better not know." Su Zhongming hesitated, refusing to give him an answer.Shen Yun looked serious, "There are only the two of us here, I'll commit the crime, knock you to the ground, and then find a place to hide, it's okay."

Su Zhongming was afraid that what he said was serious, and he was too embarrassed to say it out loud, so he only said implicitly: "Uh... If it is said that he can't have children, he can only fight on the battlefield on horseback, and he can't draw black eyebrows, paint rouge and wear colorful clothes. Sha Sheng has the right to go to court to discuss matters, and he can also be used as an animal..."

After listening to it carefully, Shen Yun was shocked and blurted out: "You mean...!" Su Zhongming quickly replied: "I didn't say anything..." Shen Yun held his forehead to calm himself down, and said slowly: " I... I see..."

Answering one-on-one, Shen Yun completely forgot the sadness and anger he had when he rushed out of the wedding banquet before, and his heart became pure.Su Zhongming asked him, "What do you plan to do in the future?" Shen Yun looked out of the corridor, pondered for a while, and replied: "Maybe today's happy event is because I am too excited, I should give her a chance, let her be willing... "

Holding on to the railing, he also made up his mind: "I plan to leave the capital, join the army in the army, be a real man, make contributions, and if I still love her at that time, I will come back and marry her."

Su Zhongming only nodded, turned around and left, intending to return to the banquet hall.Shen Yun said to him: "I saw Ding Xuehou peeling oranges for you, one after another..." Su Zhongming blushed all of a sudden, pretending he didn't hear these words, he walked forward quickly.

When Su Zhongming returned to the wedding banquet, he saw that all the guests and the host's family were still there, so he walked slowly through the banquet room, and walked in front of the master of the Shen family.The master of the Shen family asked respectfully: "Your Majesty, where is Shen Yun? Why didn't he come back with you?"

Su Zhongming smiled and said: "Master Shen, let's forget about this marriage? Shen Yun said that he is willing to listen to Wen Qian, and if Wen Qian doesn't want to marry him, then he won't marry." She was so frightened that she fainted without saying a word.

The servants of the Shen family hurriedly supported Master Shen and helped him to sit down. Duke Zhen had no choice but to call the shots and cancel the wedding event for this day.
