Forgotten Legend Of The Bloodied Flower - Chapter 2169 Marriage Ceremony (5)

2169  Marriage Ceremony (5)

“Congratulations for your marriage, General Xing! I wish you would be happy with your wife for your entire life.”

“General Xing, congratulations for your marriage! I hope you two could grow old together and still be together.”

“General Xing, I want to congratulate you for your marriage! I hope you can gave grandchildren quickly!”

The soldiers were all coming forward to Long Qian Xing and toast him one by one. Each and every single one of them tried to give different blessings, but there were still some who overlapped with each other.

It was lively.

Of course, their main goal was to make Long Qian Xing drank as much wine as possible. Nan Hua’s siblings and cousins also stepped forward to make trouble at this time, making sure Long Qian Xing drank wine as much as possible. It was clear that they would not let him off so easily.

“Are you not going to join them?” Old Madam Long asked her old friend beside her. The one who was most fervent in preventing Long Qian Xing from getting close to Nan Hua was Old Master Nan. It was not like he wanted to stop this marriage. But it was more like he felt uncomfortable when he thought that his beloved cabbage was being coveted by a pig.

But now, it was clear that Old Master Nan was not coming forward to make trouble with Long Qian Xing. It was rare for him. “Should I still make trouble now?” Old Master Nan asked quietly. He passed a glance at Old Madam Long and shook his head. “I have decided to give them my blessings, so I would not disturb their lives.”

Blessings.

Old Madam Long chuckled and smiled.

She watched as her grandson was being persuaded to drink and only laughed. She didn’t feel much concern about this because she knew Long Qian Xing’s drinking capacity was high. This much would not pose any trouble for him.

What made her happy was that Old Master Nan no longer made any trouble for Long Qian Xing.

But then again, there was no point.

In the past, he might still make trouble because he was dissatisfied with Long Qian Xing. But when things had reached this points and the two children were getting along well, he would just leave them be.

They were happy together and there was no point in beating them either. “General Xing, I wish you happiness,” Prince Yang Lu stepped forward and gave his blessings.

At this time, Long Qian Xing was finally released and quickly cupped his fist. “Thank you very much, Your Highness.”

He could only take his glass of wine to respond because this was the only way for him to respond. At this time, he silently noted down the name of his soldiers who were taking their ‘personal revenge’ on him tonight.

When he returned to the barracks, he would make sure to give them special treatment worthy of their action. Prince Yang Lu smiled and after saying a few more words, he retreated.

He was not close to Long Qian Xing and Prince Yang Lu had no intention to break this delicate balance. There were many people who were watching him and wanted to take advantage of him, so he still had to be careful. Even though all that Prince Yang Lu wanted was to become an idle prince now, there were still some people who thought that he could be used to gain more power in the palace.

Prince Yang Lu hated those people.

But for the sake of their faces, he couldn’t possibly be rude to them either.

So all he could do was to swallow the grievances he felt inside his heart and made sure that he was able to avoid suspicion. Long Qian Xing is a powerful general.

This man’s rank was also rising in the recent years and if Prince Yang Lu were to be seen to be too close to Long Qian Xing, there was no doubt that some people would begin to pay more attention to him. After the greetings, Prince Yang Lu went back to where his wife, Princess Mu, Mu Fei Xin, was sitting. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Are you not going to greet him too?” Prince Yang Lu asked with a smile.

Princess Mu Fei Xin looked at her husband and then shook her head. “It’s good enough for me to be present and there’s no need to make trouble.”

The main reason why Mu Fei Xin was here was only to accompany Prince Yang Lu. She actually wanted to see Nan Hua, but she also knew that it was impossible for her to see the bride in this marriage ceremony.

In that case, she would just watch as Prince Yang Lu greeted Long Qian Xing and then came back again. It was good enough. “If you said so.” Prince Yang Lu nodded, not thinking too much about Princess Mu Fei Xin’s decision. Princess Mu Fei Xin smiled and looked at the other officials who were present. She had to admit that this marriage ceremony was really grand. There were many officials who were present and most importantly, Emperor Yang Zhou himself was here.

Looking at the emperor who was nodding at the other officials and then drank wine while looking in Long Qian Xing’s direction, Princess Mu Fei Xin could guess that the relationship between Long Qian Xing and Emperor Yang Zhou was really good.

Most people of high stature usually didn’t like to show that they have good relationship with someone in case they would be targeted by the others because of this. And it was also easy for them to be taken advantage of because of various reason.

But Emperor Yang Zhou was different. He didn’t seem to care that people knew he and Long Qian Xing had a good relationship. Perhaps, it was because even if they knew, there was nothing that they could actually do to either of them. The two of them were already in a high position and other people could only look up at them.
