Xiao Chen lay on the bed and couldn't fall asleep for a long time. He closed his eyes, and in his mind were images of the Xiao family's death. The shocking scene during the day left a psychological shadow on him.
He sighed, "It's too miserable."
Then he remembered his situation and couldn't help but sit up from the bed suddenly. He scratched his head, "Something's wrong, something very wrong."
He searched himself, trying to find any clues. After all, what happened on this day was so weird.
He touched for a long time and found a small purse around his waist, "What is this?"
He opened his purse and poured out a mini ancient sword.
This thing is a bit strange. He reached out and touched it, but unexpectedly, this small mini ancient sword was so sharp that it cut his finger. He screamed and quickly covered it with his hands, but a drop of blood dripped into the ancient sword and then disappeared.
Then, his head sank and he fainted.
He fell on the bed, and the small mini ancient sword turned into a mysterious light and penetrated into his eyebrows. Suddenly, his sea of consciousness was in chaos.
Xiao Chen was in a coma and groaned, "Ah."
It was obvious that the small mini ancient sword was ravaging his sea of consciousness, giving him a splitting headache and great pain.
Soon, his clothes were soaked with sweat.
He didn't know how long it took, but he woke up and found that his body was exhausted. He weakly got off the bed, walked to the table, picked up the teapot, and poured water into his mouth desperately. I drank a whole pot of water to quench my thirst.
He closed his eyes and saw the ancient sword hanging in the sea of consciousness. As soon as he opened his eyes, the scene in the room became clear again.
He swallowed, "What the hell is this?"
He searched in the memory of the original owner and found that this ancient sword seemed to have been worn by him since birth. He didn't know what it was and thought it was just a decoration.
But Xiao Chen had a guess of his own.
In this world, there are monks, great Confucians, sorcerers, and even more sword cultivators.
This ancient sword may have been left behind by some kind of sword cultivator, because in his consciousness, the ancient sword exuded extremely powerful sword energy, but it was now restrained.
But just imagining it from a distance gave him a splitting headache.
Xiao Chen sat on the stool and took a deep breath, "It seems that this original owner has a big secret, and this secret is coveted by even the emperor of the Dawu Dynasty."
Xiao Chen speculated that this big secret was probably related to the ancient sword in his body. As long as he unlocks the secret of this ancient sword, maybe he can find the answer.
At this moment, he only felt very tired. He returned to bed, and as soon as he lay down, he fell asleep.
Soon it was daybreak. When the sun shines from the east side of the capital, the whole capital boils. Because a shocking news spread from all directions.
Xiao Chen was recruited by Emperor Dawu as his consort and could get married.
The name Xiao Chen is familiar to everyone in the capital, because he behaves wildly, spends a lot of time, and is a complete playboy.
He was once called the number one dandy in the capital by the old master who was the supervisor of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
It happened that such a person was recruited as the consort.
For a moment, everyone was a little confused.
But the random news shocked everyone even more. Just yesterday, Emperor Dawu ordered that the entire Xiao family be executed. The reason turned out to be that General Xiao Yuan had rebelled against the country and defected to the enemy.
Such shocking news came out at the same time, making everyone in the capital unbearable.
However, before everyone could react. The mighty team from the palace was already on its way to Xiao Mansion.
This festive team was buzzing with gongs and drums all the way and was very lively. Countless people came to the streets and stopped to watch.
Soon, the team arrived in front of the Xiao Mansion. A eunuch got off the horse and gently pushed open the door of Xiao's mansion. The entire Xiao Mansion was covered with white papers, which made the old eunuch frown. It is obviously a festive day, but there are white papers all over the floor. How inappropriate is this?
But the old eunuch did not dare to get angry. Because this was the consort whom Emperor Dawu named as his son-in-law. He shouted towards the inside, "Prince-in-law, come out to greet him."
But there was no response for a long time. It seemed that there was no one in the huge mansion.
The old eunuch looked like he had seen a ghost. He was so frightened that he ran inside quickly, if Xiao Chen could not be brought to the palace today. I'm afraid this old eunuch is about to die. He was in a panic, for fear of losing his head.
When he came to Xiao Chen's room and pushed open the door forcefully, he found that Xiao Chen was sleeping soundly under the quilt. He was angry and grateful at the same time. This bastard killed his whole family yesterday and became the prince-in-law today, yet he slept like a nobody until he was deader than a pig.
The old eunuch's expression was complicated for a moment, and he didn't know what to say.
He walked in and woke up Xiao Chen, "Prince-in-law, wake up."
Xiao Chen was in a daze when he heard someone calling him. He was so sleepy that he slapped her with his backhand and said, "Get out of here, don't bother me."
He was beating someone in his dream, but hit the old eunuch with a slap.
The old eunuch was so angry and annoyed that he almost collapsed. He roared angrily, "Prince-in-law, get up."
As he spoke, he pulled hard and pulled off the quilt.
Only then did Xiao Chen wake up. He opened his eyes and saw a skinny little old man. This old man has no beard, looks feminine, and has thick makeup on his face. He only took one look and felt a chill in his heart.
This is the eunuch.
He guessed it at a glance.
Xiao Chen then remembered what Hongying said last night. It seems that he is really going to become the Prince Consort.
He sat up from the bed and said with a smile: "Hello, may I ask what your name is?"
The old eunuch had a shrill voice and shouted, "Old slave, Eunuch Li, I have seen the Prince Consort. Prince Consort, it's time to change your clothes."
Then with a wink, the maids behind him all walked in to change Xiao Chen's clothes.
Soon, Xiao Chen put on better clothes and walked out of the room, looking dignified.
He glanced around and said, "You can go now."
Eunuch Li nodded, "Old slave, please lead the way for the Prince Consort."
A group of people walked out of Xiao Mansion. Xiao Chen got on the sedan chair, and the vast team returned the same way. This time, the gongs and drums still went up to heaven.
Xiao Chen, who was in the sedan, found a letter in the sedan. The letter was written to him, but it was not signed. I don't know who wrote it.
He opened it and took a quick look and found it funny.
The letter read, "Xiao Chen, the dog thief, we and you are sworn in."
This tone, this sourness, is completely jealous.
Xiao Chen smiled, "I don't know who I want to marry, but these people dared to write this letter to provoke me."
The wedding team headed towards the palace in a mighty manner.
At this time, in the palace, a woman dressed in red was looking at the mirror in a daze.
This girl is none other than the princess Wu Wan who is getting married to Xiao Chen this time. She is a peerless beauty known as the eldest princess of Dawu.
