Volume 1 Chapter 11 The Fragrance of a Single Incense Can Fill an Entire Room Selection of a Son-in-law Ceremony 1

  The ceremony of choosing a son-in-law was more grand than I had imagined! On the second day, Yan Yan sent me many bright red clothes. The army outside reminded me that my every move was related to Hanshuang's life and death! Since ancient times, even the most powerful marshal who killed the royal family would have to establish a crime of exterminating nine clans!

  I frowned, reluctantly putting on the red veil. With the red makeup on, I forced a slight smile in front of the mirror. "Ye Hanmei, even if it's death, it's worth it!" Many years ago, I couldn't protect Hanshuo, and I've always regretted it. This time, Hanshuo killed the imperial family of Fengguo to save me, so let me, as her sister, come and rescue her back!

  The corners of my lips are slightly raised, and a bright red veil is drawn over the mirror to cover up my cold smile. The ends of my eyebrows are slightly raised, and my forehead is smooth and enchanting, with a heart-shaped cinnabar mole between them. Although it covers my cheeks, it makes people think more deeply about me - I may not be a heavenly immortal, but I am an easily intoxicating snake demon!

  Kui Yue stood beside me, gazing at me for a long time before saying, "Miss! Are you really going to do this? How can Miss's lifelong fate be decided like this!" His eyes gradually turned crimson red, and the hand grasping the ghost knife loosened and tightened, tightened and loosened again!

  "Ghost Moon! You've known all along that I have a twin sister named Hanshuo, right? Just like you and Gui Feng are inseparable since childhood. If someone were to use this reason to kill Gui Feng, would you do it?" I smiled carelessly, just hoping for today's commotion to end soon.

  His face changed color. He was stunned for a long time before saying, "I will take the ghost wind with me! Just like many years ago!"

  "That's because you had the chance to take him away! But I didn't!" I shook my head, a smile playing on my lips, "What's the harm in that?"

  Kiyotsuki's face turned pale, and after a while, he said, "Yes! I will make the same decision as Miss! Without letting Kiyokaze know, I'll bear it alone! Even if I die, I won't let Kiyokaze get hurt at all!" His words were firm, but little did he know that fate would shatter them to pieces!

  "Then follow me! Guī Yuè! This time, it's not about marrying any of them, but rather, to meet the requirements of the Flame, as a dragon family woman, I will go to my death. Guī Yuè, don't you think it's hilarious? I actually did the same thing before! I could have come back earlier, but I endured and waited until Zi Yun's wedding day to take revenge on her, staining her wedding with blood, also to make her not become a person without a home. But unexpectedly, it would end up like this! In the end, I still couldn't bring myself to harm her!

  The same feelings, the same methods. Yet again, harboring an unrelenting love for those two people! Facing those who betrayed me, I couldn't thoroughly harden my heart, not take revenge, yet also couldn't help but feel unfulfilled! So I can only use myself as a scapegoat!"

  "Kui Yue said before, no matter where you go, I will follow you till death!"

  That is to say, he will die with me! A slight movement in his heart, he patted his shoulder and shouted loudly, "Let's go!"

  I don't know how much preparation they made during my ten-day coma. As I sat on the golden carriage prepared by Flame, I slightly furrowed my brow. The soldiers following us were all wearing black iron armor with a red triangular scarf around their necks to show the festive atmosphere of this great day!

  The procession stretched for ten miles, with as many as 10,000 people! The emperor is marrying off his daughter, but it's not just that; this fiery passion won't rest until the cold snow is brought back!

  From a distance, the city gate was crowded with people. In front of the city gate, a platform over ten feet high was set up. The platform was built with bamboo and covered with bright red silk. At the highest point, a huge red silk flower was hung! It was indeed a joyful atmosphere!

  The horse carriage stopped briefly, Gui Yue lifted the curtain and said softly, "Miss! We've arrived!"

  I smiled slightly, stood up slightly, and stepped down. Yan Yang was riding on a tall white horse, wearing a golden ceremonial robe, and said loudly, "How's the preparation I made for you? Is it grand enough?"

  She stood up straight, slightly furrowed her brow. "Such a high platform, you want me to throw the embroidered ball?"

  He burst out laughing, "This is natural! Throwing the embroidered ball, it's only now that the fun of this battle is revealed! Look!" He pointed with his big hand, "I had already announced ten days ago that I would marry off the imperial sister and then post your portrait in the imperial city of Fengguo. Among the nobles, you are extremely beautiful, and with the identity of the imperial sister, within ten days, so many people have come!" After he finished speaking, he laughed loudly with his hands on his hips.

  Looking far into the distance. Only to see in front of the high platform, inside three layers, outside three layers, were filled with talented people from various countries! The corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and he couldn't help but admit that this man's ability to handle things was really very strong!

  "Hanmei, Hanmei! Look! How lively! I've wanted to hold a son-in-law recruitment meeting like this for a long time! Now it's finally come true, I'm overjoyed!" Tianji Old Man wiped away his tears and said loudly.

  I glared at him, "Was it your stupid idea?"

  He happily nodded, "Yun Ya didn't speak to me for ten days because of this! Haha! I'm so happy I could die!"

  "Master! Remember this!" I said coldly.

  "Stop talking so much, hurry up and get on the high platform, take a shuttlecock and throw it down! Ah! Right! I forgot to say! The shuttlecocks are not just one! That is to say, choosing a son-in-law is not just one round! This throwing of the shuttlecock is only the first round! Haha! Go quickly!" Yan Yan shouted loudly. His excited expression was beyond words!

  I gritted my teeth and chose a son-in-law, bringing so many people here, it's clear that you're just playing around! Since that's the case, I'll choose to scare some of them off then!

  A faint smile played on his lips, like a fiery red cloud, he lightly leaped over the crowd, with several bounds, and floated up onto a ten-zhang high platform! A burst of astonished cries erupted from the crowd!

  Men all like women who are weaker than themselves, and if I do this, at least half of them will retreat without a fight!
