After hearing the conversation between Mu Yun and Xiao Lei, Wei Tingshang nodded slightly and said, "When I was living in the palace, I met with my uncle the envoys of Youluo Pozhou. Both men and women were blond and blue-eyed. They looked like monsters when we first met. But their skin color is very fair, which is not as good as that of ordinary Chinese people."
Mu Yun's heart moved, and Yinjian said with emotion: "The countries in Youluo Pozhou are good at craftsmanship, which we in Daliang are indeed inferior to. I remember that Ting'er has a mirror, called a 'glass' mirror, and every detail of the appearance in the mirror is clearly visible. , according to her, it comes from the Western Yellow Hair... cough... Youluo Pozhou."
Wei Tingshang hummed and said, "I have seen my little sister's mirror. It is really amazing. It was a gift from the princess of the Yituoli Kingdom. Even in Youluo Pozhou, it is unique to the royal family. Well... put it this way , Youluo Pozhou is indeed good at making mirrors, and the effect of those crystal prisms is exciting."
Xiao Lei curled his lips and said sourly: "As expected of a royal family member, he is given all good things. Next time I see the little vixen, I have to appreciate it and see how clear that mirror is."
Mu Yun and Wei Tingshang smiled at each other after hearing this, and Fang Ruxin and Chen Yaqi could not help but yearn for him.
Noon had come while we were talking, but there were still two empty seats across the street. It seemed that the people who were invited were not in the mood to keep the appointment.
Everyone was just wondering who was so supportive when they heard the sound of a machine pivoting. The door of Xiaoyin Jiangshan Tower slowly closed, the thick window screen also slowly fell, and the light gradually became dim.
Knowing that the birthday banquet was about to begin, everyone cheered up. In a moment, the window screen completely fell, and a series of rolling sounds came from the roof.
As the mechanism on the roof of the building operates, the bright sunlight refracts in through the huge prism, and is then dispersed and illuminated by other prisms, making the building bright again.
The refracted light accurately fell on each seat on the second floor. Only the two empty seats disappeared into darkness. The golden light spilled onto the first floor, making the Persian blanket even more magnificent.
The two sides of the hall were filled with colorful light and mist, and the musicians were particularly energetic, as if they were descended from the heavens.
Even though Mu Yun and others had already speculated, they were still greatly impressed when they saw such gorgeous light and shadow.
At this time, a graceful lady stepped out and came to the center of the hall. She smiled brightly as her bright eyes moved, and announced loudly: "The birthday banquet has begun, everyone is welcome."
This woman looks to be twenty-nine years old. She is dressed in a purple palace dress. She has a tall and exquisite figure. She has a very delicate appearance, especially a pair of almond-shaped eyes that look at the posture, which has a charming charm of its own.
The girl in purple has outstanding talents, and the light flowing in the field naturally converges on her, making her the focus of the audience. She then said: "I am the Wu family, with the nickname Cui Shan, and I have been ordered by my young master to take charge of Eastern affairs. , I will host Sister Yuan’s birthday banquet today.”
This Mrs. Dong comes from a famous family and is the apple of Wu Zhiyuan, the head of the Songshan Sect. Today, the Five Mountains Sword Sect is closely connected, and the Zhongyue Songshan Sect has many disciples and has strong financial resources. It has become the leader of the Five Mountains. It is really important. watch for.
Wu Zhiyuan had no children, and he only had one beloved daughter, Wu Cuishan. He doted on her very much, but it was inevitable that he neglected to discipline her.
This Miss Wu has an arrogant temper and is accustomed to bossing around, causing a lot of trouble in the world. However, she has mastered the essence of the Songshan School's swordsmanship, and there is nothing that ordinary people can do about it.
But as the saying goes, "Evil people will be punished by evil people." Wu Cuishan didn't want to offend anyone, but she offended Fang Lanling, who was just starting out. He gave him a lesson and lost all face.
Wu Cuishan was so angry and resentful that she tried to take revenge several times, but was easily resolved by Fang Lanling. On the contrary, she stole the chicken but failed to lose the rice.
After being entangled like this for more than a year, Wu Cuishan knew that she was no match for Fang Lanling. After being convinced, she felt a renewed love for him and even took the initiative to express her feelings.
Unfortunately, Fang Lanling was already married and had many concubines at home. Although he liked Wu Cuishan, he could only politely decline to avoid ruining her life.
Wu Cuishan was depressed about this for several months. She realized that Fang Lanling was concerned about her background, so she returned home and reported to her parents, saying that she would not marry anyone who was not a prince in her life.
Wu Zhiyuan was really shocked, and he objected firmly without hesitation. The father and daughter had a huge quarrel. If Mrs. Wu hadn't dissuaded her, they might have drawn swords against each other.
After trying hard to persuade her to no avail, in order to prevent her beloved daughter from doing something degrading to the family tradition, Wu Zhiyuan decided to impose a grounding on Wu Cuishan.
Unexpectedly, Wu Cuishan was deeply in love with Fang Lanling and went on a hunger strike to resist. Her heart was as hard as stone.
After only a few days of this, the originally youthful and beautiful girl was already in disgrace, and her appearance was even more haggard.
Wu Zhiyuan couldn't bear the suffering of his beloved daughter, so he could only compromise temporarily and sent someone to invite Fang Lanling to the mountain to discuss marriage matters.
At that time, Fang Lanling was already a well-known and well-known young master, and the whole world admired him so much. But he was still shocked when he heard that Wu Cuishan was so infatuated that she was even willing to go on a hunger strike for him.
Unable to refuse both emotionally and rationally, Fang Lanling hurried through the night and went straight to the pinnacle of Songshan Mountain.
Wu Zhiyuan was originally full of anger towards Fang Lanling, but seeing that this man was so outstanding, he also felt some appreciation.
The two talked secretly for an hour and finally made a bet. The Songshan sect set up three checkpoints. If Fang Lanling could pass it, Wu Zhiyuan agreed to marry his beloved daughter to him and would fully support him from now on.
The first level was the literary test. Wu Zhiyuan invited Master Tianbo from Shaolin Sutra Pavilion, Taoist Xuming from Wudang Zixiao Palace, and Xun Wujiu, a great scholar from Songyang Academy, to take the exam together at Fang Lanling.
The four of them talked from the beginning of the Mao period to the end of the Shen period. Everyone in the three religions all praised Fang Lanling for his vast knowledge, and he had passed this test.
The second level is the martial arts test. Wu Zhiyuan and his twelve brothers set up a sword formation, known as the "Heavenly Dragon, Earth and Tiger Formation". The thirteen people worked together to trap Fang Lanling.
This sword formation is no small matter. It was created by Master Leng Chan, the founder of the Songshan Sect. At that time, he trapped and killed Qiu Jingtao, the demon of the Jingyu Sect, the "Nine Charming Heavenly Demon".
Fang Lanling, on the other hand, had a well-thought-out plan. He could attack and resist with ease with a golden shuttle. He moved forward and retreated as fast as a ghost. He broke through the sword array while strolling in the courtyard, using only a hundred moves. Even though Wu Zhiyuan was quite prejudiced against him, he was defeated this time. Be convinced orally.
The third level is a mental test to see if Fang Lanling is sincere in marrying Wu Cuishan. Wu Zhiyuan summoned ninety-nine female disciples to line up with Wu Cuishan in Junji Zen Monastery, and they all wore masks to hide their appearance.
Then Fang Lanling sealed his eyes, ears, nose, mouth and seven orifices, and bound his hands with beef tendons. He only had one stick of incense to identify Wu Cuishan among a hundred female disciples, and only then could he pass the test.
This level seems to be too difficult for someone to do, and everyone is worried about Fang Lanling, fearing that he will fail.
Unexpectedly, Fang Lanling was as calm as Huan, and stepped between the women. With his mysterious and mysterious superhuman spiritual sense, at the last moment before the incense burned out, he finally stopped in front of a woman and smiled at her.
The moment the mask is taken off, only happiness remains and weeps. Marriage is destined, wouldn't it envy others?
