Chapter 192 Whoever Obstructs Shall Die! (2/2)
People come around in the Tian Feng City, not that lively. Ye Wuchen, the three unfamiliar faces, didn’t cause any interrogation when they entered the city, walking on the streets, yet they repeatedly caused the passers-by to raise eyebrows.
The air in this area was drier than the Tian Long City, the establishments and attires were not that sumptuous like the Tian Long City, Ye Wuchen was listening with rapt attention to people’s conversation in the streets, his brows knitted tighter and tighter. For him to travel day and night just to get here, he did it right. Yesterday Ye ShuiYao had arrived here, today she will marry the crown prince.
He pulled over a random person in the streets, asked by surprise: “Where is the location of the imperial palace?”
For people in the Tian Feng City, this was pretty much a very common sense kind of question, before the man could react, he subconsciously stretched out his hand and pointed towards the direction of the imperial palace.
Ye Wuchen released him, hurriedly went towards the direction of the imperial palace. He believed that, he still have enough time.
Sister, since your choice was wrong, then let me help you make a right choice.
The Gale Nation’s imperial palace was decorated with lanterns and colored banners everywhere, happiness in harmony, guests from all directions one by one came to attend, the big wedding of the crown prince, was not just a small thing. But due to the limited time, guests and influential visitors were mostly from Tian Feng City.
Luan Feng Hall was the place for huge weddings in the Gale Nation’s imperial palace, normally aside from the princes and grandsons of the emperor, only those was granted by the emperor were qualified enough to celebrate wedding and entertain the guests from all directions here.
In front of the Ye ShuiYao’s Yao Feng Pavilion the drums were beating simultaneously, lion dances were continuous. In the gateway were five palanquins with eight carriers, three red two blue, the first one will be used by Ye ShuiYao as the marriage sedan, the body of the sedan was with red curtain and green top, on top of it was inserted with dragon and phoenix as symbols of good fortune, golden yellow silk tassels were suspended in the four corners. The other four were according to tradition, the two red ones will be used by the escorts of the bride, two blue palanquin were covered by blue woolen cloth, on top of them were inserted with copper crowns, for the groom and his best man.
The clamor of festive sounds had made the Yao Feng Pavilion to become not tranquil anymore, Ye ShuiYao was like a wooden person being assisted by the servants to put on her wedding dress, her head was already being covered by the crimson head covering. She knew that this day would finally come, although the arrival date was much earlier that what she had predicted, but instead of feeling terrified in her heart, she was instead unusually calm, just like a stagnant water without any life force.
From the moment she left Tian Long City, her heart seemed already died, her life became a blank space. All of the happiness, sadness, attachments, indifferences that she had ever attained before…… were already became the past that will never ever come back, in this new country, all she had was…… zero, just like being from a world, then being suddenly transferred to another completely irrelevant world.
That female servant who was supposed to be the bride’s escort had been persuading her for a very very long time, but she still didn’t move a single jot, bewildered as to how this journey was going to come to an end. When the female servant became tired of persuading, she suddenly stood up then walk out of the door, her expression was still cold, just like a young lotus in the world of chaos.
The door was pushed open, Ye ShuiYao came out with her full body in red, Feng Ling who was waiting for impatiently outside was overjoyed. The two female servants who were similarly dressed in red hurriedly proceeded ahead, supported her as she hopped on the marriage sedan.
“Humph! What a great attitude, coming out after a very long time.” beside Feng Ling, a woman who had insisted to follow him to escort the bride indignantly snorted coldly. Her name is Feng Ru, seemed like more than twenty years of age, it’s Feng Ling’s own little sister with the same mother, although she is a woman, yet she was rather robust, thick eyebrows and big eyes, between her brows appeared to have a bold and vigorous intrepid attitude. During normal times she was rather dependent on Feng Ling, she only listened to his words, her nature was completely different from him, this was the reason why at this age the magnificent princess was still unable to get married off.
Feng Ling fiercely stared at her, she went silent, getting a huff as she turned her face away.
Along with the gongs and drums, suona, and lion dance, the marriage sedan had finally set out, with the clamor of the noises it headed towards the Luan Feng Hall.
At the same time, in front the gates of the imperial palace there was a commotion.
“Stop, the imperial palace is a strategic place, all other people with no fixed duties shall not enter.” a stern imperial guard blocked off Ye Wuchen, vigilantly looked at him. They were already quite familiar with those who frequently travel in and out of the imperial palace, how could they allow Ye Wuchen the unfamiliar face to enter.
Ye Wuchen stayed calm, and courteously said: “Brother, please go ahead and announce it, just tell them that Tian Long Nation Ye family had assigned someone to attend the crown prince’s big wedding.”
“Do you have any written document?” that imperial guard was unconvinced, as he coldly replied.
“None.” Ye Wuchen wrinkled his brows, his voice went deep, at the same time he proceeded one step ahead, directly collided with this imperial guard, with quick steps he headed inside.
“Outrageous!” that imperial guard roared, beside him more than ten people approached, carrying blades as they obstructed Ye Wuchen’s way.
Ye Wuchen didn’t stop his footsteps, using an indifferent voice he gave Tong Xin his first command to kill: “Whoever obstructed, shall die!”
When Ye Wuchen’s voice dropped, a cold red light shot out, during the flicker of this red light, a red line simultaneously appeared in the neck of the three persons carrying the blades blocking Ye Wuchen’s way, then with their frightened eyes opened wide, they collapsed facing the sky.
