The general's calmness and calmness obviously exceeded Yao Ji's expectations.
And after the Queen's wedding, that's when the results of today's events will come to fruition.
By then,
Will the so-called divine punishment happen?
What will Nichiwa City look like again?
She no longer had a clear answer in her heart, and she didn't know who to believe.
"Okay, don't fight stupidly. It's really getting late. You should go and rest quickly. There will be a lot of things waiting for you to do in the next two days."
When Yaoji Kankan realized what she wanted to respond to, she found that her father had already stood up from his position and walked to her side.
"Yes, Father."
The knot accumulated in her heart makes her respond mechanically.
In fact, she really wanted to say something, wanted to fully confide what was in her heart, but when her eyes touched the general's silver hair and her own difficult situation, she suddenly became speechless.
After all, no matter the process,
In the end, he chose to believe in his queen and left the onmyoji from a foreign land alone in the palace.
This is something that cannot be changed.
It is precisely because this cannot be changed that father would say that he would come back to his house as a guest after the tragedy.
For a moment, the sad look in Yu Zhi's eyes became even worse.
However, in this atmosphere, the general who had already moved away suddenly stopped and spoke to himself:
"Yao Ji, you have grown up."
"You need to have your own judgment,"
"You also need to be responsible for everything you do."
When the powerful voice restrained Yao Ji's scattered mind, she couldn't help but look towards the source of the sound.
Under the moonlight, my father, standing with his back to me, straightened his body that had been eroded by time.
In a faint trance, this vicissitudes of life with traces of time gradually overlapped with the general who scolded Fang Qiu in Yaoji's memory.
"Yes, Father."
Yao Ji's voice regained the lost sonority, and the confusion in her eyes gradually dissipated, gradually replaced by determination.
She suddenly realized that she had forgotten her original intention:
The wedding that Her Majesty the Queen is still looking forward to will be held successfully,
And protect the residents of the entire Nichirin City, not only on the occasion of the wedding, but at any time!
She must achieve both of these!
After carrying out her thoughts, Yao Ji couldn't help but clenched her slender hands, and a majestic power surged according to her thoughts.
"Also, don't take all the things and responsibilities on yourself."
"Although my father is old, he is not completely unreliable."
While speaking, the general who turned sideways naturally took in the expression on his daughter's face, and a look of relief also appeared in his eyes.
So, he continued to add.
"After a whole afternoon of discussions, pharmacists and doctors across the city have come up with some methods to block and solve the spread of the plague."
"I have already ordered people to take care of these."
"If you need anything else, please come to me and I will fully support you, Yao Ji."
Hearing this,
The woman who regained her faith suddenly stood up straight towards the former.
"yes,"
"Lord General."
She responded.
.........
.........
Two days passed by in a blink of an eye, and in a blink of an eye it was the wedding day of the Queen of the Sun.
On this day, the streets and alleys in Nilun City were decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and the faces of all the residents were filled with joy, as if the person getting married today was not the Queen, but their own children or family members.
In fact, it's not much different,
The existence of Queen Himihu is like the closest relative to every resident of Nichirin City.
Being approachable on weekdays, traveling together during memorial ceremonies, taking the lead in times of war, and so on. All the past and all actions made the residents of this city regard him as a bloodless relative.
Even the sun is probably not as kind and respectful as her.
In other words, just because she symbolizes the sun,
Therefore, the residents of this ancient city continue to believe in the sun.
After all, after thousands of years of rotation, the original group of people who had fanatical faith and devout respect for the sun had long since lost all their bones and turned into nothingness.
The will to serve and believe in the sun has gradually become weaker.
The respect they inherited will only remain unchanged and even intensify when facing the Queen who has always accompanied and protected the city.
"Father,"
"It's time to go."
Yao Ji stood outside the house and called respectfully towards the room.
I saw that she was wearing purple furisode, elegant and generous.
It complements the long silver-purple hair that falls like a waterfall to her ankles.
Not long after, with the sound of the door opening and closing, the white-haired general walked out of the house with his body upright.
Today, although he still had his samurai hair tied up, he was no longer in military uniform. Instead, he was wearing a brown haori embroidered with the symbol of Nichiwa Castle, and he looked full of energy.
Seeing the two of them going out, the guards who had been guarding the door also brought two tall horses. After the two mounted their horses and rode, they immediately divided into two teams and followed them towards the Sunrise Pavilion.
As Kankan walked to the street, excited and excited exclamations could be heard all the time:
"Look, it's the General and Lord Yao Ji."
"The father and daughter are really heroic. The peace of the City of the Sun depends entirely on the General's Mansion."
"Yes, I still remember what the General said after returning from the victory, "Although we have achieved this victory, many brave soldiers have been sacrificed. You must remember that every life lost has a Meaning, without the sacrifice of these soldiers, there would be no stability in Sunlight City now]."
"..."
Along the way, there were more and more people traveling together, and the urging voices kept coming:
"Old lady, hurry up and get going. You're already quite old. You still have to spend time dressing up for the wedding. With your legs and feet, by the time you reach the Sunrise Pavilion, Her Majesty the Queen's wedding will be over."
"This is the wedding of the Queen and Lord Wan Deng. The makeup shows the importance I attach to the wedding."
"I am really grateful to the Sun for allowing the Queen to meet her sweetheart. I have attended countless weddings at my age, but this is the first time that the two of them have been such a loving couple."
"..."
On the roadside, a young man wearing a tan straw hat was carefully selecting among the endless sea of sunflowers.
It can be heard from his muttering voice that he wants to select the most beautiful sunflower for Her Majesty the Queen.
At the market, various residents came in a hurry, with beads of sweat on their foreheads, and their mouths opening and closing as they kept mumbling: How could I forget a gift? How could I forget to bring a gift? What should I choose now?
In front of Rilun Pavilion, there is a sea of people.
Even though the wedding had not yet begun, and even though soldiers on guard had arrived in advance to maintain the scene, amidst the enthusiasm of the residents, it still became crowded and difficult to enter.
This situation was not relieved until the general and his daughter arrived.
It wasn't just who took the lead who exclaimed: "The General and Lord Yao Ji are here."
Immediately, the crowded sea of people who were still shoulder to shoulder separated in an orderly manner to both sides, making way for an inward passage.
In the special space created by Yun Waijing, Huang, who was sitting cross-legged in the palace, suddenly opened his eyes as if he was sensing something, and the power that seemed to be still in his body also surged here.
But looking at the mirror space, which still showed no sign of opening, an obscure look bloomed in his right eye, and a murmur followed from his mouth:
"It still hasn't stopped after all, this wedding that defies the gods."
"Then I will wait one more day as promised."
"If the promise is not fulfilled after one day, then..."
"Don't blame me for taking action."
As the words stopped, Huang, who was sitting cross-legged in the shrine, closed his eyes again, and his whole breath also converged.
The wedding of the Queen of the Sun also kicked off at this time.
Nuoda martial arts arena was crowded with spectators. They cheered, blessed, and stared intently at the newlyweds standing in the center of the high platform.
The general and Yao Ji stood on the right side of the high platform. The former presided over the entire wedding process, while the latter held a ceremony tray with wine glasses, and the garland on her head restrained her long hair.
Today's two newcomers are standing right in front of the huge statue, swearing their vows to each other and whispering to each other.
"You are so beautiful today."
"May the rest of my life be as happy as today."
Listening to the gentle words of love, looking at the lover so close to him, and feeling the caress from the other person's palm, Himihu's eyes were already filled with love and happiness.
Even the worries and fears that had flashed earlier today were completely forgotten at this moment.
She only had eyes for the man in front of her.
"We'll never be apart again, right?"
A soft rhetorical question rang out,
Himihu's raised plain hand also gently covered the back of Wan Deng's hand.
At this moment,
This physical body temperature, this close breath, this full physical and mental happiness are all her pursuits in this life. Nothing, no future, no fear can cover today's joy.
"Yes, I swear."
"I will always be by your side."
Wan Deng responded seriously, his eyes that were full of smiles and love were never as bright as the former's cheeks.
At the same time, priests in strange clothes began to dance ancient rituals to pray for blessings from the sun.
Yao Ji, who was holding a gift tray, also came to the side of Her Majesty the Queen and Wan Deng. The two of them also took the wine glasses and drank the wine together amidst the shouts of "Long live, long live" that resounded in the sky.
The final ritual is for Himihu and Wan Deng to bow down to the altar with white candles burning in front of them and the golden statue behind the altar, silently praying for the blessings of the gods they serve.
here,
The sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly. It seemed that God was also beautifying this congenial marriage.
But even so,
Even if everything is fine,
But at the end of the ceremony, when all the people who came to bless them were preparing to leave, intending to leave time and space to the two newlyweds, Himiko, as the queen, suddenly spoke out:
"All citizens of Nichirin City, please stay for now. First of all, thank you all for coming to see me and Wan Deng's wedding."
"Secondly, I have one more thing to announce today."
The words come out,
The residents of Nichirin City who were about to retreat stopped one after another and looked at the Queen standing on the high platform.
They are also very curious about something that needs to be announced at the most beautiful time of the Queen's wedding, which is comparable to the Queen's wedding.
And Himihu also subconsciously looked at the husband beside him in this very short gap.
After all, in a certain sense, she is no longer alone at this moment, and she wants the support of her other half for the decisions she makes.
Of course, this support was quickly received.
From the latter's consistent gentle gaze and gentle nod, Himihu saw only love and support, and no nostalgia or desire for other things.
After hearing this declaration, Yao Ji also made eye contact with her father beside her, and both found the same confusion in the other's eyes.
Obviously, Her Majesty the Queen did not tell the father and daughter in advance about this decision.
And at this moment, Yao Ji suddenly felt a gentle gaze falling on her, and following this gaze towards the source, what she encountered was the gentle eyes of Master Beimihu, and the words that came into her ears. Pan's declaration:
"I have decided to hand over the throne of Rilun City to Yao Ji from today on."
"She is upright, kind, strong, gentle, and has the will to protect this city and the residents here more than anyone else."
"With Yao Ji here, Rilun City will definitely become more prosperous and peaceful."
As soon as these words came out, the entire scene fell silent instantly. No one thought that their Queen would choose to make such a shocking move on the day of her wedding.
Even the generals with rich qualifications and experience expressed extreme consternation at the Queen's move.
You know, although time is rolling forward, as long as he can remember, the king of this ancient city of the sun has been the Queen!
And decades have passed, but her appearance has not changed at all, and it will probably remain the same in the future.
But now, this being with the blood of the gods has made such a move, how can he not be shocked?
However, its own consternation is very different from that of ordinary residents.
Because after understanding certain inside stories, he saw things deeper and more clearly.
There is probably only one reason that prompted Lord Himihu to act like this: she was also afraid of disobeying the rules of the gods, so she changed everything on her own in order to get the forgiveness of the Sun God!
But can this really earn God’s forgiveness?
Just like the question raised by the Onmyoji from a foreign land before leaving, is that the supreme god? Which one is more important, the faith of a city or its own divine power?
Disobeying the rules, for the superior gods,
It is not just a behavioral offense, but also a kind of shaking from the essence!
If there is one there must be two,
This is slowly and gradually destroying the existence of gods and the majesty of divine power! !
so........
God's punishment will definitely come true.
Time goes by,
It's late afternoon,
The general standing in the general's mansion looked worriedly at the cloudy sky.
The sun has disappeared.
But it was clearly early in the morning, and the sky was still clear and the sun was shining brightly.
"Boom."
Deafening thunder suddenly cut through the gloomy black curtain,
It's like a corner of Pandora's box has been opened, and the majestic heavy rain falls from the sky.
"General, General, an unknown illness suddenly occurred in the city. The sick residents showed symptoms such as coughing up blood, weakness, and syncope. And it spread..."
"cough........"
"transmission speed........"
"Ahem..."
But before the reporting soldier could finish reporting all the situation, the unstoppable coughing and the gurgling blood oozing from his mouth and nose had already blocked his subsequent words.
