Chapter 1469: On a Happy Day, Emperor Qing's Decisive Move

February 18!

The weather has gradually warmed up in this season. Today is the wedding day of Zhou Chen, the Duke of Qing, and Zhan Pianpian, the Princess of Northern Qi.

Zhou Chen got up in the early morning, and Sang Wen did not sleep either. Instead, she helped Zhou Chen bathe and change clothes.

Although there are maids and servants at home, most of Zhou Chen's affairs are now sorted out by Sang Wen herself.

Today is the wedding of her beloved man and another woman, but she does not feel sad at all, but is equally festive.

The most important thing for a person is to know himself, and Sang Wen is a woman with such wisdom. She knows what her identity is. She is satisfied to be favored by Zhou Chen. She has never thought about getting more. She just thinks wholeheartedly that as long as Zhou Chen can be well all the time and let her stay by his side all the time, she will be satisfied.

She even hopes that Zhou Chen and Zhan Pianpian will get married soon, because only after they get married can she really become Zhou Chen's concubine.

Although she was nameless and without status, she was willing to accompany Zhou Chen all the time. But if she could have a status, even if she was a concubine, she would be willing, at least it was much better than being nameless and without status.

After meeting Zhou Chen, she had no other thoughts, just wanted to stay with Zhou Chen all the time.

Sang Wen, who was tidying up Zhou Chen's clothes, said with a bright smile: "Young master looks so good today."

It is said that the eyes of lovers are beautiful, not to mention that Zhou Chen is very good-looking. Anyway, in her eyes, there is no man better looking than Zhou Chen in the world.

Zhou Chen said: "Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard, not at all. If possible, I am willing to help you dress and tidy up for the rest of my life."

Zhou Chen smiled and said: "Then you have to remember this sentence."

Sang Wen responded softly: "Yeah."

Time passed bit by bit, and the sky gradually changed from dark to dim and bright.

The wedding custom of China since ancient times is to greet the bride in the morning and hold the wedding ceremony at dusk, which means to marry the bride in the morning and hold the wedding ceremony at dusk.

The same is true for this "future era". Zhou Chen needs to set out from the mansion in the early morning and go to the post station to welcome the bride Zhan Pianpian to the mansion. At dusk, the wedding ceremony will be held, and finally the bride will be sent to the bridal chamber to complete the wedding.

The wedding procession in the mansion has been prepared long ago. When the auspicious time arrives, the wedding procession will set off immediately under the leadership of Zhou Chen.

As the Duke of Qing, although Zhou Chen does not serve in the court, as the highest title of a different surname, he is still marrying a princess from another country, and the Emperor of Qing has issued an order.

Therefore, the specifications of this wedding are all top-notch, whether it is from the team, wedding supplies, guests, etc., it is very high-profile.

Zhou Chen's Zhenguogong Mansion is not far from the post station, but it needs to cross several streets, and the wedding procession is very long. Naturally, the speed will not be fast when it moves.

Because the wedding route of the two has been determined, there have been people in the court responsible for clearing the road. When the wedding procession passes by, there will be no one in the middle of the road.

Class privileges in feudal society are not just talk, but a real existence.

There were many people around the post house today, most of them were there to watch the fun.

Although Zhou Chen rarely attended those lively occasions, this time, it was a big wedding, so he sent invitations to some dignitaries in Kyoto who he had dealt with.

At the Fan Mansion, Wang Qinian and Teng Zijing came to Fan Xian's yard.

"Sir, you must go to the Zhenguo Mansion to attend the wedding of the Zhenguo Duke and the Princess of Northern Qi today. I will go with you then."

Wang Qinian said to Fan Xian happily.

Teng Zijing stared at the invitation in Wang Qinian's hand with jealousy and envy, his eyes were about to spit fire.

"Zhenguo Duke actually sent you an invitation, how can you have such a big face?"

Wang Qinian patted the invitation in his hand very proudly, and his face was full of wrinkles when he smiled.

"That's right, what kind of friendship do I have with the Duke of Zhenguo? We were..."

"Come on, Lao Wang, stop bragging. It's just that I led the Duke of Zhenguo and received money from him. How many times do you want to tell me?"

Fan Xian couldn't help rolling his eyes at Wang Qinian. Wang Qinian had already told them five, six, seven, eight, and nine times about leading Zhou Chen. His ears were calloused.

"Sir, that's not how you say it. Look, the Duke of Zhenguo has sent me an invitation. That's called friendship."

Wang Qinian felt his legs were starting to feel light. This was the Duke of Zhenguo's invitation. Many people wanted it but couldn't get it. He was just a clerk in the Inspection Institute, but Zhou Chen remembered him and sent him an invitation. What a great honor.

Although he thought money was the most important thing, sometimes it was also very good to have face.

"Look, sir, doesn't Teng Zijing have any?"

Teng Zijing, who was already angry, threw his clothes and shot several flying knives at Wang Qinian. Wang Qinian smiled and dodged the slow flying knives.

"Hey, you can't hit me."

Fan Xian stopped Wang Qinian: "Old Wang, don't be so funny. The Duke of Zhenguo invited you. You should have prepared a gift, right?"

Hearing this, Wang Qinian's face was painful, and he gritted his teeth and said: "I spent a lot of effort and spent a lot of money to prepare a gift. Sir, you have to pay me a salary, otherwise my Baba won't even be able to eat pork belly in the next few months."

Teng Zijing snorted: "Old Wang, you are so shameless."

"Hehe, thank you for the compliment."

…………

In the East Palace, the prince had already gotten up and was having breakfast when his subordinates came to report.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, Duke Zhen Guo has already gone out to welcome the bride."

"Are all the gifts I asked you to prepare ready?"

"Already installed."

"Well, watch the time and don't delay."

In the second prince's residence, the second prince was also paying attention to the situation in the Zhou Mansion, and he was even more concerned about it.

Now he and Fan Xian have completely fallen out with each other, and they even have the idea of ​​killing each other, so at this time, he is the one who wants to win over Zhou Chen the most.

Zhou Chen himself is the Grand Master and the person he is trying to win over. Now Zhou Chen is getting married to the Princess of Northern Qi. If he can have a good relationship with Zhou Chen and get Zhou Chen's support, it will be of great significance. Maybe even Beiqi could become his arm.

Lin Ruofu was also preparing to go to the Zhou Mansion. He didn't have much friendship with Zhou Chen, but they had some interactions, so he would naturally go to Zhou Chen's wedding.

There are many dignitaries in Kyoto. Even if they did not receive the invitation, many of them shamelessly went to the Zhou Mansion with gifts.

Inspection Institute.

Chen Pingping was sitting in a wheelchair, watering the flowers in the corner, while Shadow stood next to him waiting.

"The congratulatory gift was delivered to the Zhenguo Palace?"

"It's already been sent to you. You really don't want to go?"

Chen Pingping shook her head and said: "It's such a happy day for someone else. Why am I, an old and disabled person, going to go there? I won't go."

At this moment, Yan Ruohai suddenly ran over in a hurry, holding a note in his hand.

"Dean."

Chen Pingping also stopped what she was doing when she saw Yan Ruohai's solemn expression.

"What happened?"

Yan Ruohai said in a deep voice: "Information from two hours ago revealed Ye Liuyun's whereabouts thirty miles away from Kyoto."

Chen Pingping's back suddenly straightened up and she asked urgently: "Ye Liuyun, are you sure?"

"Sure." Yan Ruohai answered with certainty.

Chen Pingping's face suddenly became very strange, her brows were knitted together, and she fell into deep thought.

Shadow was also very shocked: "Grand Master Ye Liuyun, he hasn't been back to Kyoto for many years. Hasn't he been traveling outside? How could he suddenly return to Kyoto at this time and be discovered by people from the Inspection Institute?"

Chen Pingping's expression suddenly changed, and she shouted to Shadow eagerly: "Shadow, are you going to find Duke Zhen and tell him about Ye Liuyun's entry into the capital?"

Shadow was about to ask, but Chen Pingping didn't give him the chance.

"Go now, use the fastest speed, and be sure to notify Zhou Chen."

At this point, he suddenly paused: "If you find that something cannot be done, don't hesitate to leave immediately and run as far as you can."

Seeing Chen Pingping's nervous tone, Shadow didn't bother to ask anything. The figure shot out like a sharp arrow and quickly disappeared from the eyes of Chen Pingping and Yan Ruohai.

After the shadow left, Yan Ruohai asked solemnly: "Dean, do you think Ye Liuyun came to Kyoto to protect the country?"

Chen Pingping said: "I don't know, but Ye Liuyun didn't come back early or late, but he came back at this juncture. It's really unusual. But what's even more strange is that if Ye Liuyun wants to hide his traces, even if it's our inspection agency, It’s hard to spot him, it’s weird.”

"But no matter what, it's right to tell the Duke of Zhenguo. I just hope it's not as complicated as I thought."

Having said that, Yan Ruohai couldn't see the tension in Chen Pingping's eyes, and even his hands were clasped together.

As the groom's official, Zhou Chen naturally had to ride a tall horse and walk at the forefront of the procession when welcoming the bride.

Suddenly, as he was riding on the horse, his expression changed slightly, and then a black shadow flew past him, and there was a note in his hand.

When he saw the content on the note, his face suddenly became ugly, and then he shouted: "Stop."

The wedding team stopped one after another, and then everyone looked at Zhou Chen in confusion.

Zhou Chen did not explain immediately, but slowly closed his eyes, allowing himself to hold his breath and concentrate, and maximize his awareness of everything around him.

After a while, he opened his eyes and his expression became extremely solemn.

"Li Yunqian, I really underestimate you. Also, Ye Liuyun, you are really looking for death."

In fact, he had always been on guard against Qing Emperor Li Yunqian. He knew that the person Qing Emperor wanted to kill the most was him, but he was just not sure and did not dare to take action.

He also knew that an ambitious man like Emperor Qing could not endure this forever, but he had been busy with his wedding recently, and Emperor Qing had been silent, so he never thought that Emperor Qing would do anything before his wedding. Take action against him.

There is also Ye Liuyun. They only met in Jiangnan last year. Although they did not say it explicitly at the time, they had actually reached a consensus to maintain the triangular relationship between the three great masters of Qing Dynasty and maintain balance.

Only a short time had passed before Ye Liuyun changed. You didn't need to think about it to know that Emperor Qing must have forced Ye Liuyun.

But even so, Ye Liuyun still chose to side with Emperor Qing, which meant that they became enemies.

Although it was the first time for him to reach the level of martial arts like a grand master, in one-on-one situations, he would never look down upon the other four grand masters and was confident that he could win.

But he has also fought against the three great masters. Although it is not a life and death battle, he has already had a premonition in his heart when he reaches their level.

In a life-and-death battle alone, he was sure to kill Ye Liuyun, but facing Ku He and Si Gu Jian, he was not absolutely sure of winning. If he really fought to the end, even if he could survive, he would definitely be seriously injured, because one of them had super strong defense and the other had terrible killing power. It was impossible to win without paying a price.

He had super strong assassination ability, and even entering the palace was easy, but the Grandmaster and ordinary warriors were two different concepts. It was impossible to kill the Grandmaster by assassination.

It was precisely because he was not absolutely sure that although he had fought with Emperor Qing several times, he did not think of exchanging his life with Emperor Qing.

Emperor Qing was nothing, so why did he need to exchange his life with his?

But judging from the current situation, he was wrong and underestimated Emperor Qing's determination to kill him.

It seems that Emperor Qing had already started planning before he returned to Kyoto.

"Choosing this time is really insidious. He is worthy of being the first Ninja Turtle in Joy of Life. He can not only endure, but also calculate."

At this point, Zhou Chen knew that he had no other choice. Emperor Qing chose this time because he was sure that he would not escape alone.

In fact, Emperor Qing did not make a wrong bet. Even if he was facing the attack from the two great masters at the same time, if he wanted to run, Emperor Qing and Ye Liuyun would definitely not be able to stop him.

But he couldn't abandon Zhan Pianpian, nor could he abandon the Zhou Mansion. If he ran away, people like Emperor Qing would never let Zhan Pianpian and the others go.

This was an open conspiracy, and Zhou Chen had no choice.

Since he had no choice, he would not be timid and made a decision in an instant.

"He Qin, go back to the mansion, take Sang Wen and Tong Quan with you, leave Kyoto through the secret passage, and go to the safe house. If I don't go to find you, you will disappear and don't show up again."

"Master."

"Don't talk nonsense, go back now."

He Qin didn't know what happened, but when he saw Zhou Chen's tone, he knew something big had happened, so he immediately used all his strength to circulate his true energy and rushed back.

Zhou Chen called another person over and told him a few words, and that person also quickly left the wedding party.

Compared with Sang Wen and others in Zhou's mansion, he was more worried about Zhan Pianpian in the post house.

Because he stayed in the mansion, it was difficult for Emperor Qing to hide people around his mansion, but the post house was different. Without him, there was no telling how many people of Emperor Qing were there.

Once Emperor Qing took action, it would definitely be a sure kill, and he would never miss the opportunity to use Zhan Pianpian to threaten him, so he sent all his thirty-six constellations and the seventy-two earthly demons who had just been trained for more than a year to the post house to rescue Zhan Pianpian.

After conveying the message to Zhou Chen, Shadow did not leave far away, but stood not far away, looking at this place.

Suddenly, something flew over, startling him. He hurriedly caught it and saw that it was red cloth. His face suddenly changed suddenly. Then he stopped looking and left here as quickly as possible, heading towards the Inspection Institute.

"Give him this secret. With Chen Pingping's character, he will not sit idly by."

Now he can't get away, and all his men have been sent out, but he still feels uneasy, so he asked Chen Pingping for help. After all, Chen Pingping can let Shadow come to convey the message, and seeing his message, he should not be indifferent.
