Yejia Village is located in a remote rural area in the mountainous area of ??Wu State, a remote mountainous area with rugged mountain roads. If you walk into the mountains, you won't even be able to see the shadow of the village within seven or eight hours. There are hundreds of acres of thin farmland in the village, and the rest of the village households make a living by hunting in the mountains.
Such a mountain village is naturally not rich, and even bandits are not willing to make a living by robbing in such a place.
The figures of two golden elixir monks are walking in the wind.
"Xi'er, if you secretly accompany me to Yejiacun, will your father have any objections if he finds out?"
Ye Chen asked Huangfu Xi'er with a faint smile.
When it comes to marriage, there is not much difference between the world of immortality and the secular world. A woman will not go to the man's home with a man at will. If you go, it's probably to meet the other person's parents. I went to Yejia Village before this trip with this in mind.
"My father used to tell me that he would not consider my marriage before I formed a golden elixir. He was very strict when I was a child, and no one in the family dared to talk to me. In the past, they could still accuse me of not having an elixir. The reason is that now that I have achieved the golden elixir, my father probably has a headache now and doesn¡¯t know how to control me.¡±
Huangfu Xi'er's pretty face turned red and she said with a smile, "Besides, this time you won the first place on the Immortal Ranking, it will be even harder for him to find reasons to talk to me."
Ye Chen smiled silently and nodded.
He thought that Patriarch Huangfu¡¯s current mentality was a bit subtle, and he probably didn¡¯t want to marry off his daughter easily. After all, for a Jindan monk, twenty years old was still very young, but Patriarch Huangfu had no reason to restrain him.
He had to think of a way to make Patriarch Huangfu happy and agree.
"Yejia Village is ahead!"
Flying over several mountains, Ye Chen saw a few curls of smoke appearing in the mountains and forests ahead, and said lightly.
Under his calm expression, he felt a little inexplicably nervous and excited.
He was born in an ordinary farm family in Yejia Village. At the age of five, he was sent to Wuguo Beilu Academy, seventy or eighty miles away. He studied hard in the academy for nearly ten years, and occasionally returned to his hometown several times in more than ten years. Later, I went to Tianwu Xianyuan City and saw each other for nearly ten years, so there was no need to talk about it at all.
He has a very vague impression of Yejia Village, although there are many uncles in the village. But not many of them were recognized. Except dad and mom. An old man from a private school, he didn¡¯t have a deep impression of other people in the village.
The two of them flew down, swayed, and changed into ordinary coarse cloth clothes of ordinary mortals. The gorgeous costumes of the Golden elixir monks are too luxurious and shocking in this small mountain village. But even if they changed into a pair of ordinary coarse clothes, they could not conceal the elegant aura of the immortals in their bodies.
The temperament of a person who cultivates immortality is completely unmatched by ordinary people.
Ye Chen and Huangfu Xier walked to the entrance of Yejia Village.
More than a dozen naked butt-headed children were playing under the big tree at the entrance of the village, catching birds and snakes. While playing in the mud, I saw two fairy-like beautiful men and women appearing at the entrance of the village. They were all stunned. Suddenly they dispersed and ran home to call their parents.
But one of them, a five- or six-year-old boy with mud on his face, did not leave. Holding a small mud snake in his left hand and a one-foot wooden sword in his right hand, he stared at Ye Chen and Huangfu Xi'er with a pair of big, bright black eyes.
"This is Yejia Village. Who are you? What are you doing in our village?!"
The boy danced with his wooden sword, wiped the snot from his face, and made strange sounds.
"This little kid is quite brave!"
Ye Chen glanced at the little boy and felt that he looked familiar. Seems like I've seen it somewhere. But he has not been back to Yejiacun for nearly ten years. How could I have seen this five or six year old child?
He couldn't help but wonder.
"Ye Chen, have you noticed? He looks a bit like you! He feels just like you when you were a child!"
Huangfu Xi'er suddenly said in surprise.
"Really? Huh!"
Ye Chen took a closer look and saw that this little kid really looked like him. No wonder he felt a little familiar.
Soon, Yejia Village was alarmed early in the morning, and the adults, uncles, farmers and hunters ran out one after another.
"Whose baby is this?"
"Ye Chen! Ye Chen is back!"
¡°You stupid mother, hurry up and call your uncle, his son is back!¡±
There are still many adults in the village who remember Ye Chen's appearance. Although Ye Chen's temperament has changed a lot, his appearance has remained the same, and he can be recognized at a glance. Soon someone called Ye Chen his parents.
Yejia Village is not big. If you shout at the entrance of the village, you can hear it at the end of the village.
"My son is back! Where is he!"
Mrs. Ye came out of the old house excitedly, shouting.
Father Ye also hurried out with a dry pipe in his mouth.
??"Mom! Dad!"
Ye Chen saw his mother and father at a glance from the crowd and quickly stepped forward to help them.
Seeing Ye Chen come back, Mrs. Ye was extremely happy.
"Who is this girl?!"
The two elders of the Ye family soon saw that there was an extremely beautiful woman standing next to Ye Chen. Her temperament was like that of a fairy who could not eat the fireworks of the world.
"I have met my uncle and aunt! I am Ye Chen's fellow senior sister."
Huangfu Xi'er smiled sweetly.
"Hey! Good!"
Mrs. Ye responded quickly, her eyebrows arching when she smiled. As for her classmates, she didn't understand, so she didn't ask any more questions. There was no need to ask more questions about the girl her son had brought back.
"By the way, this is your brother! Ye Bao."
Ms. Ye¡¯s sharp eyes caught the little boy hiding in the crowd who was looking curiously, and pulled out his ear, ¡°Bao¡¯er, your brother is back, and you haven¡¯t called me brother yet!¡±
"He is my brother? Why do I have an extra brother?!"
The little kid glared at Ye Chen. He was very bold at first, with a weird look on his face, but when he heard that Ye Chen was his brother, he immediately shrank back.
"This kid is my brother?"
Ye Chen was surprised and looked at the little baby carefully. He hadn't been back for several years, and his parents actually gave him a five- or six-year-old brother. No wonder he felt familiar.
¡°Chenzi¡¯s father, go clean up the room quickly so that you can have a good night!¡±
Mother Ye shouted to Father Ye.
"There are not two rooms! The house where Chenzi lived before is still empty. How about letting Baoer sleep in the same room with us?"
Father Ye was smoking a dry cigarette and muttering.
"Who asked you to clean up the second room!"
Madam Ye suddenly glared and wanted to curse.
"Ah! I know, I know!"
Father Ye suddenly realized that the one room that Ye Chen lived in before was enough. There was no need for two rooms. He hurried back to the house to clean up.
Ye Chen and Huangfu Xier helped Madam Ye back to her yard.
People from Yejia Village came to Yechen¡¯s courtyard to have fun, killing chickens and ducks to prepare dinner. There are not many people in the village, and they are all from the same clan. Every household that has foreign guests is a guest of the whole village.
In the afternoon, Ye Chen followed Father Ye to the village¡¯s Ye¡¯s Ancestral Hall to worship his ancestors.
The small village was lively all day long.
Until late at night. The villagers gradually dispersed.
The village is amidst the hustle and bustle. Peace and tranquility restored.
?¡
Ye Family Courtyard, East Room.
The furnishings in the room are very simple, with only a bed and a table. There is a new set of quilts on the bed, which Mrs. Ye dug out from the cabinet.
Mrs. Ye even whispered to Ye Chen privately whether she should have a wedding ceremony at home and get the marriage concluded.
Ye Chen quickly shook his head and rejected it. He will go back to his ancestor in three days. If he goes behind his back to get married, he will go back to his ancestor. Ancestor Huangfu is still chasing him all over Yunzhou with the Tianxu Sword. Moreover, it is not the right time at this juncture to chase down that demonic cultivator in the past few days.
"However, it's okay to live in the same room.
There was an oil lamp on the table, its weak light swaying.
Ye Chen held Huangfu Xi'er's soft and boneless jade hand and sat side by side on the bedside. A hint of love brewed between the two.
Ye Chen turned his head and looked over.
Huangfu Xi'er was wearing a veil, and the crystal snow skin on her neck was exposed. Under the light of the oil lamp, it was so red that it made him daydream endlessly.
"I took off your veil!"
Ye Chen said softly.
When he first met Huangfu Xi'er at the Tianxumen South Lake, his heart skipped a beat. It was a wonderful feeling. In all these years, he had never seen Huangfu Xi'er take off her veil. I have never seen Huangfu Xi'er's true appearance.
"Um!"
Huangfu Xi'er responded softly.
Ye Chen took off her veil.
Huangfu Xi'er's beautiful face was finally revealed. His cheeks were as red as drunkenness, and his head was slightly bowed. She had an extremely gorgeous face, long eyelashes hanging down like stamens, and a pair of eyes as cold as snow, looking at him lovingly.
"Xi'er!"
Ye Chen was immediately fascinated, and his heart was also trembling.
After he obtained the Immortal Mansion Scroll when he was young, he often dreamed of a scene in which he became an immortal and stayed and flew together with an unparalleled beautiful fairy on a flying fairy island, proudly overlooking the earth and the sky.
In the dream for many years, the peerless and beautiful face that seemed familiar to me finally appeared in front of me at this moment.
It is indeed Xi'er??
The woman who kept appearing in his dreams.
He didn¡¯t quite understand why he had such a dream. You know, he has never seen Xi'er's true appearance before.
"Could there really be a past life and this life?! If there really is a past life, but I don't know what it was like?"
A strange thought flashed through Ye Chen's mind. People who cultivate immortality have naturally heard of the legend of reincarnation in the world of immortality. However, even those who cultivate immortality only regard this as a legend.
Seeing Ye Chen's foolish look, Huangfu Xi'er chuckled, feeling sweet in her heart.
Ye Chen pulled Huangfu Xi'er into his arms and gently hugged Huangfu Xi'er's soft waist. The plump, smooth and soft touch made him intoxicated for a moment.
Huangfu Xi'er's pretty and red cheeks were pressed tightly against Ye Chen's chest, smelling the familiar masculine scent of Ye Chen's body, making her feel extremely peaceful.
?¡
Late at night.
King Wu¡¯s City.
After having a secret discussion with Wu Lingxiang, Wei Ming and other monks, King Wu dragged his exhausted body and summoned the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty of the Wu Kingdom in the royal city to issue the "Edict to Abdicate the Sinner" and choose another wise king to take the throne.
The ministers were stunned and fell to the ground one after another, intending to dissuade him.
But before they could say anything, a vision suddenly appeared.
A purple stream of light streaked across the sky of Wu Kingdom and landed above Yejia Village.
?¡
The next day, in the evening.
"Boom!"
Tens of thousands of cavalry were running wildly in the mountains, and the earth was shaking.
Riding horses at the front were dozens of civil and military ministers from the Wu Kingdom, including old ministers with gray hair on their temples, majestic and burly generals, and eunuchs. All of them were anxious and eager to rush towards Yejiacun. After patting the horse, he rushed to Yejia Village.
Wei Ming, Zhu Haomin, Jiang Zhi, and several other monks such as the new national preceptor Wu Lingxiang were also among them.
The villagers in Yejia Village were all alarmed and came out to check. They saw groups of iron cavalry rumble into Yejia Village. A large group of soldiers with bright swords and halberds surrounded Yejia Village. They didn't know what big thing happened.
Father Ye and Madam Ye also came out of the house in a panic to see what was going on.
Only Ye Chen and Huangfu Xier knew what was going on and came out calmly.
The momentum of the tens of thousands of cavalry troops was so majestic that it almost covered the mountains and plains. The mountain people in Yejia Village had never seen such a scene before, and they were all scared out of their wits. Even the bravest hunter in the village was trembling with fear. Thinking that disaster is coming.
"My king!"
"Your Majesty!"
"Where is Your Majesty? I'm waiting for you to come late!"
Dozens of leading civil and military ministers rushed into Yejia Village, howling, looking for their new monarch among the villagers of Yejia Village. Although Yejia Village is a small village, it has a large population. They looked at the anxious villagers in the village, not knowing who was the real one, so they couldn't help but look at the national master Wu Lingxiang.
Wu Lingxiang looked at Ye Chen eagerly. Of course, Ye Chen has the final say who will be the new king of Wu Kingdom. She can't make the decision.
Ye Chen only has two direct relatives who can be the king, one is Father Ye and the other is his second brother Ye Bao.
Ye Chen was about to point at Father Ye, but after thinking about it, he still pointed at five-year-old Ye Bao. It is difficult for Father Ye to learn to handle state affairs when he is old, so it would be better for him to become the Supreme King and enjoy a happy life. Ye Bao will be able to handle state affairs in about ten years.
Wu Lingxiang immediately ordered several eunuchs to bring out a set of children's dragon robes. Put it on Ye Bao. The age of the new king was not known before, so the eunuchs specially brought many different sets of royal robes.
"Your Majesty!"
"I welcome your Majesty!"
"Welcome to the Supreme King and Queen Mother!"
These ministers immediately rushed forward with joy, worshiped everywhere, and proclaimed Ye Bao as the new king of Wu Kingdom, and worshiped Ye Lao and Ye Lao Niang as the Supreme King and Queen Mother.
Father Ye, Mother Ye, and Ye Bao were all shocked by this drastic change.
Everyone in Yejiacun was dumbfounded. There was actually a monarch in Yejiacun.
Ye Bao was thrown into a dragon robe by the eunuchs. Got into a carriage with eight horses. He was stunned for a while and finally came to his senses. She screamed loudly, danced excitedly, and shouted to her friends outside the carriage, "I'm going to be the king! You fool, idiot, fat man, I want you to be a general. Gua Niu, I want you to be the queen! Wow!" ~!"
?¡
Amidst the commotion, civil and military ministers and eunuchs gathered around the carriages of Ye Bao, the Supreme King, and the Queen Mother, who were still in a daze and did not understand, and headed for the royal city to prepare for the new king's enthronement ceremony.
The country cannot survive for a dayYour Majesty, the ministers will not miss this opportunity to support the new monarch.
Of course, the villagers of Yejia Village were not left behind. After all, they were also relatives of the king, and they were indispensable for their glory and wealth.
Wei Ming quietly came to Ye Chen's side, winked and said, "Yesterday, King Wu issued the "Edict to abdicate the sinner" and chose another wise king to take the throne. Then a crape myrtle star appeared in Yejia Village, and it is estimated that it has spread throughout the entire Wu Kingdom. Ye It is God's will that the emperor will appear in our village, and the Ye family will ascend the throne. Those ministers traveled all night and starry to rush to Yejia Village to welcome the new king. In order to allow the ministers to arrive within one day, I specially gave a large number of horses I gave it spiritual water. Uncle Master, what do you think of my arrangement?"
"You are the only one with so many tricks! I was originally wondering what happened to the purple light that suddenly appeared in Yejia Village last night. I didn't expect that it was you who was pretending to be a fool and fooling the world. However, such a legitimate accession to the throne is very important to the new king's ascension to the throne. It¡¯s still very beneficial.¡±
Ye Chen smiled.
He is naturally satisfied with Wei Ming.
However, Ye Chen still looked a little worried. With his support, it is natural for Ye Bao to become the king, but will Wuhui be messed up by Ye Bao's five-year-old baby?
"Don't worry, the Wu Kingdom already belongs to the Tianxu Sect, and no one dares to make trouble. With the Jindan monks as backers, and the Wei, Zhu, and Jiang clans of the Tianxu Sect below, the Wu Kingdom can at least be protected. The family has enjoyed endless worldly power, wealth and splendor for hundreds of years. As long as that evil cultivator does not enter the Wu Kingdom, there will be no other big enemy in the Yunzhou realm that can threaten the Ye family of the Wu Kingdom."
Huangfu Xi'er knew what he was thinking and comforted her softly, "I put a few bottles of elixir in my mother's package. It can cure diseases and prolong life, and there will be no pain in her life."
Ye Chen nodded and stared blankly at the motorcade that was gradually retreating. Dad, Mom, you can't fulfill your filial piety in front of your knees, so you can only let your second brother Bao'er take care of you. (To be continued.)
