Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
This news had given everyone a shock, to the point that their complexion had gone through massive changes. Even Qin Huaiyu was also filled with astonishment.
Subsequently, Qin Wanchou declared that he was officially betrothing Qin Mengli to Qin City’s military advisor, Shen Lang as his wife, and the wedding would take place three days later.
This news had shocked everyone to the point that they were rendered speechless.
What was going on? Is the Qin City and White Cloud City going to break off relations with one another just like that?
White Cloud City Lord Ye Wucheng and Qin Mengli’s current husband Ye Wuzheng were currently present in the hall.
When White Cloud City Lord, Ye Wucheng, heard Qin Wanchou’s words, his complexion changed as he revealed a disbelief expression.
Meanwhile, Ye Wuzheng’s face instantly turned white. After the shock, his face withered dejectedly.
However, what went beyond Yang Dingtian’s expectation was that the White Cloud City Lord, Ye Wucheng, had actually walked out from the crowd and yelled out after experiencing a short span of shock, “As everyone knows that Ye Wuzheng and Young Lady Qin Mengli didn’t have feelings for each other. They only stayed together due to the relationship between Qin City and White Cloud City. However, Lord Qin and I have been best friends for years, why would we need to be related by marriage just to maintain our friendship? Furthermore, I also feel that Military Advisor Shen Lang and Young Lady Qin Mengli would suit each other really well. Therefore, I had discussed it over with brother Qin yesterday and had decided to separate Ye Wuzheng and Qin Mengli just so that Military Advisor Shen Lang and Young Lady Qin could have a perfect marriage. During then, brother Qin was still rejecting the proposal. However, I flared up. Thus, he agreed to this wonderful event.”
Subsequently, Ye Wucheng’s gaze fell onto Yang Dingtian, “Military Advisor Shen Lang, now that you’re going to marry the beauty, you must never forget that I’m your matchmaker.”
Currently, Yang Dingtian was in full admiration of White Cloud City Lord’s acting.
It was very clear that Qin Wanchou did not discuss this over with him before when he declared his decision. That was why he was so astonished just now. But immediately after, he had used the smartest way to salvage the situation and had stated that this matter was his own decision. If Yang Dingtian had no idea of the truth, he might perhaps be deceived by his acting.
At least, Ye Wuzheng was deceived. Currently, he looked towards his elder brother with a gaze filled with confusion and hatred.
However, Ye Wucheng’s expression had also allowed him to understand the false bravado of White Cloud City. Just like what Qin Wanchou had said, Ye Wucheng was even more afraid of breaking off relations with the Qin City.
Although Ye Wucheng had gifted her sister to Lord Zhu Qingzhu to be his concubine and Ye Feng had kept on addressing Lord Zhu Qingzhu as his uncle, the White Cloud City was still merely using powerful connections to intimidate others. Lord Zhu Qing would never place Ye Wucheng in his eyes at all.
Therefore, Ye Wucheng’s expression was so angry during that birthday celebration when Qin Mengli had brought Yang Dingtian into the hall openly and intimately. Meanwhile, Qin Wanchou’s current action was a huge humiliation to Ye Wucheng. Yet, he smiled and accepted it. Not only did he not fall out, on the contrary, he even chose to accept this matter peacefully with Qin Wanchou.Update by vip novel
The gaze Qin Wanchou looked at Ye Wucheng flashed past a hint of disdain and mockery. Subsequently, he spoke to Shen Lang, “Military Advisor, shouldn’t you go and thank Lord Wucheng?”
Yang Dingtian had also joined in the play happily. He walked towards Ye Wucheng and bowed, “Shen Lang thanks Lord Wucheng for giving us his blessing.”
“Good, good.” Ye Wucheng replied. “Even though Wuzheng and Young Lady Mengli had parted ways, Brother Wanchou and I are still relatives by marriage. Therefore, you and I are also a family. Ye Feng is not sensible and has offended you previously. But from today onwards, you’re his elder. He is not sensible and might need you to disciple him. Brother Wanchou, don’t you agree?”
When Ye Wucheng spoke, he looked towards Qin Wanchou.
It was very clear that Qin Wanchou had caught him unprepared today. He was scared witless. He was unable to confirm that Qin Wanchou was merely granting Qin Mengli and Shen Lang together. Or perhaps, was he trying to break off all relations with White Cloud City. Therefore, he had spoken out to probe him. If they were going to break off all relations with them, the Fourth Young Lady Qin and Ye Feng’s marriage would also be nullified completely.
When Qin Wanchou heard Ye Wucheng’s probe, he replied, “That’s right. Military Advisor Shen is extremely knowledgeable. Furthermore, he is going to be Ye Feng’s uncle in the future. Ye Feng would be able to consult him for times to come.”
Ye Wucheng could finally loosen up after hearing Qin Wanchou’s affirmed answer.
It only then did everyone present at the scene manage to react from the astonishment. Subsequently, they went forward to congratulate Yang Dingtian.
...
Three days later, Qin City was brightly lit once again. Similarly, it was at the center of the main hall. A large scale banquet was organized there once again.
However, the main protagonists for this banquet had become Yang Dingtian and Qin Mengli! The occasion wasn’t as big as Qin Wanchou’s birthday celebration, and the number of people of importance wasn’t as many as the birthday celebration as well.
Third Lady Gongsun, otherwise known as Dugu Fengwu, and Dongfang Bingling were not around. They had left Qin City after Qin Wanchou’s birthday celebration.
The departure of Dugu Fengwu had left Yang Dingtian flabbergasted. Could this beautiful woman not recognize Yang Dingtian? It was impossible. Previously when he was on the pirate ship that was heading towards the Northwest Continent, he had also dressed himself up in disguise. However, Dugu Fengwu was able to recognize him after a short while. But if she had recognized Yang Dingtian, why didn’t she show any reaction to it?
Yang Dingtian was baffled. But currently, it was not the time to be haggled over by this matter.
Currently, Qin Wanchou had personally led Yang Dingtian and Qin Mengli around to propose a toast. Of course, it wasn’t done table to table because there were more than several hundreds of tables in the hall alone. He wouldn’t be able to toast even if he did it till the next day. He could only select dozens of them.
Although Yang Dingtian was proposing the toast, his heart had already floated elsewhere.
This world was truly too preposterous. Yang Dingtian had never once expected that his first wedding in this world would be with Qin Wanchou’s sister. Meanwhile, his real wife, Ximen Yanyan, did not even have a real wedding ceremony with him.
Even though this wedding ceremony was a fake one, Yang Dingtian was still filled with remorse towards Yanyan. He decided that after he had obtained victory over the City Lord Grand Martial Duel, he would definitely organize a real wedding ceremony for Yanyan.
“Niece Ning Rou’er wishes aunt and uncle to be in love with each other forever and live a happy and blissful life.”
Just when he was wandering in his own thoughts, Yang Dingtian heard a familiar voice. He lifted his head and saw Ning Rou’er’s stunning and gentle face. Currently, she had lifted her wine cup in smiles as she gave her blessing to Qin Mengli and Yang Dingtian. Beside her, Little Ning Ning, who was donned in jade accessories and fine powder on her face, sat on Qin Huaiyu’s lap as she wore a happy expression.
Yang Dingtian had noticed that the current Ning Rou’er was also filled with a face of happiness. It was completely different from the haggard and uneasy Ning Rou’er previously.
Previously, Qin Huaiyu was filled with rapacious designs for Yanyan. And originally, Yang Dingtian thought that even if Ning Rou’er would return to Qin Huaiyu side, she would at most be his lover or concubine. Unexpectedly, Qin Huaiyu had actually regarded her as his wife. Regardless of whether it was Qin Wanchou’s birthday celebration or was it Qin Mengli’s wedding, he had brought Ning Rou’er with him to attend it.
