The banquet went smoothly, and everyone seemed happy. Only Lin Feng was sitting alone, drinking alone.
"Brother Yang, congratulations on your wedding today." Prince Zhu Di held the cup and was about to toast Yang Bing.
"Don't dare, don't dare, how can I ask His Highness to propose a toast?" Yang Bing was actually older than Zhu Di, but he still put the wine glass under Zhu Di when he was clinking glasses.
"Hahaha, there is no prince today, only Zhu Di, come, come, have a drink!" Zhu Di liked others to treat him as an ordinary person, but the people he met in the past were nothing but compliments in front of him, and there was no sincerity. treat each other.
Until he met Yang Bing, although Yang Bing also complimented him, from what Yang Bing said to him on that day, Zhu Di could feel that Yang Bing was not afraid of him, but dared to tell the truth, which made Zhu Di like it very much. Yang Bing is a person who wants to be friends with him from the bottom of his heart.
"Hahaha, Brother Zhu, we won't come home until you and I are drunk today." Yang Bing was so smart. He could sense Zhu Di's thoughts, so he boldly called the prince brother.
The two exchanged cups and drank. The other guests were all jealous when they saw it. Lin Feng almost gritted his teeth. He was very angry at Yang Bing for teasing him, and now he saw the prince walking away with Yang Bing. Being so close, Lin Feng's heart felt like a volcano about to erupt. The closer Yang Bing and the prince came, the more detrimental it would be to the Lin family.
At this time, one of Lin Feng's personal guards came in from outside and leaned over to say something in Lin Feng's ear. Lin Feng's face calmed down after hearing this: "Tell them to do whatever they have to do."
"Yes." The guard turned and left.
This scene was seen by Yang Bing and Zhu Di who were drinking happily. Although they did not hear what Lin Feng said, Yang Bing was keenly aware that this was definitely not a simple matter.
After Zhu Di glanced at Lin Feng meaningfully, he turned to Yang Bing and asked, "Brother Yang, it seems that Lin Feng is somewhat interesting."
"Haha, he came to the door by himself. I must have fun with him." Yang Bing waved Luo Wen over and asked him to follow Lin Feng's guard to see what he was doing. Luo Wen Nodding, he left Wanqi Mansion while no one was paying attention, and followed the guard.
Zhu Di was a little confused. He didn't know why Yang Bing had such an attitude. He thought that even if the relationship between the Yang family and the Lin family was not good, they should not have been like this in the beginning, so he raised his own question: "Brother Yang, this Lin Feng Did you do something?"
Yang Bing chuckled: "Nothing can escape the eyes of His Highness the Crown Prince."
Yang Bing told Zhu Di what happened last night, but he did not mention that he and Wan Qi Ker had consummated their marriage.
Zhu Di nodded: "Humph, this Lin Feng did such dirty things just after returning to Kyoto, do you really think he is still in the South China Sea!"
Zhu Di's face was obviously unhappy. After all, this was the imperial city. Lin Feng actually sent people to the homes of court ministers to inquire about information and even sent people to take action. This was obviously a provocation to the imperial power.
"Prince, please don't be angry. I'm fine. Don't worry, I will definitely make him regret returning to Kyoto!" After Yang Bing finished speaking, Zhu Di's face improved a lot, and the two started drinking again.
The banquet lasted until evening, and the emperor and the prince did not stay long. They only sat for less than an hour before leaving.
Yang Bing drank a lot that day and started to sway while walking. Many guests didn't take Yang Bing seriously at first, but after seeing his relationship with the prince, they all started to come up to toast him. Sure enough, he still has a background that can be used. .
Yang Xiyuan and Liu Yuting also returned to their house early. For a while, in the courtyard that was bustling just now, only the servants cleaning up the mess and the drunk Yang Bing were left.
"Son-in-law, we will be a family from now on, hahaha. If you have any questions, tell me, this will be your home from now on! Hahaha!" Wan Qi Shihui was obviously drunk, and he came over with a big smile and hugged Yang Bing's shoulders.
"Then thank you Uncle Wanqi." Yang Bing clasped his fists in thanks.
After Wan Qi Shihui heard this, he was unhappy: "You call me uncle! You call me dad!"
Only then did Yang Bing realize that he was already his son-in-law and it was time to change his words: "Dad, please forgive my son-in-law for his mistake."
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter." Wan Qi Shihui laughed again, but soon his face darkened again, and he stared at Yang Bing and said seriously: "Son-in-law, I don't ask for any achievements from you. I just ask you to be kind to Ke'er. Her own mother died in childbirth when she was born, so I have never remarried. I can't bear to see her suffer any injustice. Although you married into my Wanqi family, I am also very sad. Reluctant to leave, do you understand?”
Yang Bing looked at Wan Qi Shihui's eyes. In those big and bright eyes, there was no majesty of a superior at this moment, but the tenderness of a father. This made Yang Bing admire him.
"Dad, don't worry. Although Ke'er and I are not in love, I, Yang Bing, swear here that I will live up to Ke'er and your expectations of me in this life!" Yang Bing said seriously A guarantee against Wanqi Shihui.
Wan Qi Shihui did not speak, but stared at Yang Bing for a while, and then laughed loudly: "Hahaha, good, good, good!"
Wan Qi Shihui patted Yang Bing on the shoulder, and then returned to the room with the help of his servant.
After the servant helped Wan Qi Shihui lie down, Wan Qi Shihui looked at the pillow under his head. It was originally a pillow for two people, but it was half empty at the moment: "Rong'er, have you seen our daughter in Tianzhiling?" Got married!"
Wan Qi Shihui closed his eyes, a tear slipped from the corner of his eye, and fell into sleep. In his dream, he saw Wan Qi Ker's mother, walking towards him with a smile.
Seeing that Wan Qi Shihui had returned to the room, Yang Bing walked to the prepared new room. He opened the door and saw Wan Qi Ke'er sitting upright by the bed with a red cloth covering her head. .
After hearing Yang Bing come in, Wan Qike'er opened her mouth to speak: "Hurry up and lift the red cloth. I've been sitting like this for a long time and I'm almost exhausted."
Yang Bing chuckled lightly. Sure enough, she was still a bold and generous woman, so she walked over, bent down and slowly lifted the red cloth on Wan Qike'er's head.
The moment the red cloth was lifted, Yang Bing and Wan Qi Ker's eyes met. Yang Bing felt that he had seen the most beautiful woman in the world.
Wan Qike'er's already heroic face was now covered with light makeup, and the skin on her face was as tender as freshly made tofu, which could be broken by a blow.
Yang Bing was stunned, his heart started to beat loudly, and he stared blankly at the beautiful face in front of him.
Wan Qi Ke'er was also a little embarrassed by Yang Bing's stare, and her face turned slightly red.
"Hey, can you please be more relaxed?" Wan Qike'er raised her hand and took off the red cloth.
Only then did Yang Bing come to his senses, a little embarrassed: "No, I'm sorry."
Wan Qi Ke'er ignored him, stood up and walked to the table, picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured two glasses of wine. He called Yang Bing over: "Come here quickly and drink the wine. I am almost exhausted this day." ”
Yang Bing disapproved, turned around and sat on the edge of the bed: "Then you can rest, what else are you drinking? I've been drinking all day."
"What are you talking about? I still have to do the proper ceremony. This is the only time I get married." Although Wan Qi Ke'er doesn't agree with this marriage very much, this is her first and only time after all. There should be a ceremony. The ceremony still needs to be done.
Yang Bing shook his head, walked over and picked up the wine glass. After drinking for a day, he was now physically and mentally tired, as if he had to lie down and sleep.
The two of them were drinking together, and Wan Qike'er suddenly asked: "You, do you still mean what you said that day?"
Yang Bing got a little drunker: "Ah, what?"
Wan Qi Ker immediately became unhappy: "Have you forgotten?" After saying that, Wan Qi Ker stepped on Yang Bing's foot.
This female general who had been on the battlefield was different. This kick directly woke up Yang Bing who was just thinking about going to sleep.
"Hey, what are you doing!" Yang Bing gritted his teeth in pain.
With a serious face, Wan Qi Kerer said the agreement she made with Yang Bing that day: "I will protect you with you for the rest of my life."
Yang Bing, who was about to have an attack, heard this and saw Wan Qi Ke'er's expression, and his expression became serious: "Wan Qi Ke'er, don't worry, I will try my best to be friends with you. The best and best friends, until you and I truly love each other and will protect you throughout our lives."
The two drank from the wine glasses in one gulp.
Wan Qi Kerer smiled happily. She didn't expect that this marriage was not as painful as she imagined. At least the man in front of her now made her feel that he was serious and respectful towards her.
Wan Qike'er walked towards the bed and prepared to sleep. Yang Bing followed behind him and also wanted to get into bed.
Wan Qike'er turned around warily: "What are you going to do!"
Yang Bing was stunned at this moment: "Are you sleeping?"
Wan Qi Ker'er seemed to have thought of something, and her face suddenly turned red as if she could bleed. Looking at her, Yang Bing recalled what happened that night and felt a little unnatural.
Yang Bing stood there in embarrassment and was at a loss. Wan Qi Keer thought that it would not be appropriate to let Yang Bing sleep in another room. Besides, something would definitely happen if his father saw him, but letting him sleep on the same bed as her, It’s hard for me to accept it.
Yang Bing saw Wan Qi Ke'er's embarrassment and chuckled: "I'm just taking the bedding." After that, Yang Bing took off his bedding and spread it directly on the ground.
"Oh, I've been exhausted this day." Yang Bing lay on the ground. Although it was a little hard, it offset most of the fatigue.
Wan Qike'er didn't know what to say, so she could only blow out the candles.
Luo Wen on the other side had been following Lin Feng's bodyguard. This bodyguard did not ride a horse, but returned to the Lin Mansion, changed into civilian clothes, and walked out of Kyoto.
Luo Wen followed him until he arrived at a village fifty miles outside Kyoto. It was already evening, and he saw the guards cautiously walking into a courtyard in the village.
Luo Wen took advantage of the night and walked over the eaves to enter the courtyard. He saw candlelight in the main room and four or five figures reflected in the windows.
Walking forward softly, Luo Wen leaned under the window and listened to the voices inside the room.
"Sir Iida, my master asked me to come here."
"Well, thank you for your hard work. How are you doing, Mr. Lin?" came a voice with an extremely bad accent.
When Luo Wen heard this, he knew that he was from Japan, and there were many Japanese pirates in the Ming Dynasty.
"Everything is fine, my master. He asked me to send a message to Mr. Iida, telling you to follow the plan."
"Understood, please tell Mr. Lin that I, Sanken Iida, will live up to Mr. Lin's trust."
"Okay, then let's wait for the good news from Mr. Iida." After the guard finished speaking, he walked out of the house.
Luo Wen lurked in the dark and watched the guards leave.
Not long after the guards left, a Japanese voice came from the room again: "Sir Iida, are we really going to lurk in Yang Bing's military camp?"
This person's words are much better than that of Iida Miken.
"Definitely, Lin Feng is Lin Ziren's most valued son. We need to seize this person's relationship. This will be good for us."
Luo Wen listened for nearly half an hour. The candlelight in the room was extinguished. He was obviously taking a rest. He quietly walked to the door, opened it carefully, and walked in. He barely made any sound as he walked on the ground. the sound of.
Taking advantage of the faint moonlight, Luo Wen memorized the faces of these Japanese people, then turned around and left, disappearing into the night.
