Chapter 236: There Are Three Million Sword Immortals In The Sky, And They Must Lower Their Eyebrows
Murong Fu took a deep look at Chu Qi, and saw that Chu Xiao walked forward slowly, his demeanor was unhurried, as steady as Mount Tai, clearly the appearance of a son of a family.
On the other hand, Murong Fu himself, although he claimed to be the royal family of the Great Yan Kingdom, but in the final analysis, it was all a hundred years ago.
This further deepened the inferiority complex and resentment in Murong Fu's heart, the better Chu Xiao was, the more difficult was the resentment in his heart.
But Liu Qiushui on the high tower was very satisfied in her heart. She nodded to the guards below, and then turned back into the tower with Princess Yinchuan.
Several guards immediately stepped forward and said to Chu Qi and the others: "The imperial concubine is in the hall, and I am hosting a banquet for you, please."
Chu Xiao nodded slightly, and followed the guards into the hall with his hands behind his back.
In the Xixia Palace, Liu Qiushui held a banquet for Murong Fu and Chu Qi and his party.
A looming tulle divides the Great Hall into two sections.
Li Qiushui and Princess Yinchuan sat at the top, while Chu Xiao, Murong Fu and others sat at the bottom of the "400" Hall.
The royal chefs presented delicacies from mountains and seas in an endless stream, which made people's index fingers move.
However, Chu Xiao just glanced at the delicacies on the table indifferently. Although these things are precious in Xixia, they are common things even in a family like the Chu family in the Central Plains.
Li Qiushui looked at Chu Xiao and Murong Fu in front of him through the tulle.
In terms of the bloodlines of these two young masters, Murong Fu is of course the better, after all the country of Yan was richer then.
However, the fallen Phoenix is not as good as ji, Murong Fu has nothing worth showing except for a suit of martial arts.
On the other hand, Chu Xiao is different. Judging from the information of the first rank hall just now, the titles of this Prince Wushuang, Sword Immortal, and Emperor Teacher are dizzying.
And taking Martial Forest as an example, Chu Xiao's record is outstanding, so it's no wonder that Jiumozhi, the mighty Tubo national teacher, seeing Chu is like a mouse meeting a cat.
In the Great Hall
However, Murong Fu's heart seemed very disturbed. He wholeheartedly wanted to use the strength of Xixia Kingdom to restore the ancestral family business of Dayan Kingdom, so he couldn't deal with it calmly like Chu Xiao.
He raised his wine glass to Liu Qiushui on the other side of the tulle curtain and said, "Imperial Concubine, Murong Fu is a descendant of the royal family of the Great Yan Kingdom, and I sincerely propose to marry Princess Yinchuan."
Li Qiushui nodded slightly, it seemed that Murong Fu's attitude was very resolute and sincere, but she still looked at Chu Xiao.
When Li Qiushui's eyes fell on Chu Xiao, he was stunned.
Because Chu Xiao squinted his eyes slightly, and seemed to be listening carefully, the musicians in the hall played the Western Xia instruments, as if he didn't care at all.
Xue Qianxun and Huang Xuemei who were behind were also curious when they saw this, and were about to remind Chu Xiao, but Shangguan Haitang gave them a wink, telling them to be calm.
Li Qiushui had no choice but to say, "Young Master Chu, don't you have anything to say?"
Only then did Chu Xiao gently open his eyes, as if he had just heard it, he turned to Liu Qiushui and said flatly, "I have nothing to say."
"Oh?"
Li Qiushui was taken aback for a while, even Princess Yinchuan was slightly dissatisfied, this attitude of proposing marriage is too Buddhist, right?
Shangguan Haitang, Xue Qianxun and Huang Xuemei suppressed their smiles.
In fact, Chu Xiao didn't come here to beg for marriage and become a son-in-law. He just wanted to take the opportunity to get close to Liu Qiushui so that he could find out where the ice silkworms were.
Seeing this, Li Qiushui could only sigh softly. She stretched out her slender fingers and rubbed her temples.
Murong Fu was ecstatic, it seemed that Chu Xiao had no intention of competing with him for Princess Yinchuan, he would be the only consort candidate.
Li Qiushui said at this time: "Just now in the martial arts competition, the two young masters have shown their own strength, and the Ai family has also recognized your strength, but now can you show your literary talents? After all, to be my son-in-law of Xixia Kingdom must You must have both civil and military skills."
I heard Li Qiushui say so.
Murong Fu was gearing up, eager to try.
Chu Xiao still looked calm, took the wine from Xue Qianxun, and took a sip.
With his three slender fingers, he gently held the jade cup, and brought it to his lips. The wine touched the vermilion mouth, and slowly flowed into it.
I saw that Chu Qi's slender neck and slightly protruding throat lightly moved a few times, swallowing the wine, with a light and picturesque movement.
The jade-like profile is beautiful.
Xue Qianxun, who was serving wine for Chu Xiao, was fascinated by it for a while. Even if she was with her attendant every day, she still felt the deer in her heart beating.
Even through a tulle, Liu Qiushui and Princess Yinchuan noticed at the same time that Chu Xiao, who was drinking by himself, looked even more unrestrained and extraordinary.
Compared to Chu Xiao's indifferent attitude, Murong Xia's enthusiasm seemed a bit dazzling.
However, Li Qiushui still said: "Then let's compare poetry!"
After hearing this, Murong Fu felt relieved, he was strict with himself as a son of an aristocratic family, except for martial arts, he was proficient in everything from poetry to poetry.
"Please take love as the theme and compose a poem on the spot."
Li Qiushui said to the two of them calmly.
Murong Fu pondered for a while, then immediately stood up, bowed respectfully to Liu Qiushui and said: "I have thought of a poem, please allow me to read it out.
allow. "
"
After Murong Fu got Li Qiushui's permission, he frowned slightly, put one hand behind his back, left the seat and walked forward seven times.
Suddenly, as if he had grasped a sliver of inspiration, Murong Fu shook his hand, turned around with joy and determination...
"The whole country walks lightly,
Holding it into the cavity is rare.
Bright as a river and strong wind,
West of the high-flow heavy pond. "
Murong Fu went on to praise the beauty of Princess Yinchuan in a poem, expressing his passionate feelings for the princess. Although this poem is not perfect, but it can be written within seven steps, which is considered remarkable.
"The whole country is moving in step."
As a disciple of the Xiaoyao School, Li Qiushui has learned a lot, she lightly repeated a line of Murong Fu's poem, and nodded slightly.
Although Xue Qianxue and the others knew that Chu Xiao did not intend to become a son-in-law, they felt a little reconciled to being compared to others, and they looked at Chu Qi together.
Li Qiushui waited for a while, seeing that Chu Xiao was unmoved, he couldn't help saying, "Young Master Chu, it's your turn."
Chu Xiao put down the wine glass in his hand, and moved his eyes lightly to the window, as if admiring the scenery outside.
Murong Fu frowned, and said unhappily: "Young Master Chu, even if it's out of politeness, you should say a few words!"
Chu Xiao turned his face slightly when he heard this, and said to Murong Fu and others: "Unfortunately, I am not good at poetry."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was taken aback.
Xue Qianxun and Huang Xuemei also looked at Chu Qi with puzzled expressions.
Murong Fu couldn't help but chuckled, and said: "Young Master Chu, you are joking, are there any children from the aristocratic family who know how to write poetry?"
After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but chuckled a few more times, the laughter was full of seven points of complacency and three points of ridicule.
The disappointment in Li Qiushui's eyes could not be concealed. It is inconceivable that a child of a noble family does not understand poetry, so it can be said that a person cannot speak.
Li Qiushui sighed lightly, and said to Murong Fu: "Mr. Murong."
Murong Fu had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, he immediately took a step forward, his shoulders trembling with excitement, ready to accept the appointment of his son-in-law.
But at this moment, Chu Xiao, who was sitting on the seat, raised his chin slightly at forty-five degrees, and said casually.
"There are three million sword immortals in the sky, and they must lower their eyebrows when they see me. There are 80,000 characters in the world, but the word love is the most murderous."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
Murong Fu's standing body froze immediately.
Behind the thin curtain, Li Qiushui muttered to himself: "There are three million sword immortals in the sky, and they must lower their eyebrows when they see me. There are 80,000 characters in the world, but the word love is the most murderous."
These four short sentences pierced into Li Qiushui's heart like a steel cone.
There are three million sword immortals in the sky, and they must lower their eyebrows when they see me.
This is clearly a portrayal of the high-spirited, unrestrained and disrespectful Wu Yazi back then, and the second half of the sentence has 80,000 words in the world, but the word love is the most murderous.
In an instant, Li Qiushui burst into tears on his clothes. .
