Chapter 214 I'll go out and take a look
In the quaint Prime Minister's Mansion, the red carpet is spread and flowers are clustered, creating a festive and peaceful scene.
The guests took their seats one after another, their eyes focused on the newlyweds who were about to get married.
Following the sound of a melodious bell, Xingyun, dressed in gorgeous clothes, appeared like a handsome man walking out of a painting. There was a smile in his eyes and a gentle curve at the corners of his mouth.
The flowers and birds are dressed in red that is brighter than fire, just like the most beautiful flowers in spring. They move lightly with lotus steps, and lotus blooms with every step.
The wedding ceremony officially began amid the anticipation of the guests. Xingyun and Huaniao smiled at each other, their eyes flashing with tacit understanding and deep affection that only each other could understand. They slowly raised their hands and performed the ancient and sacred wedding ceremony.
"Worship heaven and earth!"
The host's voice was high and solemn, as if it could penetrate the clouds and resonate with heaven and earth.
The moving clouds, flowers and birds smiled at each other, their eyes flashing with infinite longing for the future.
They stood side by side, slowly bowed their heads, and at that moment, the sky seemed to really respond to their piety. Colorful rays of light quietly bloomed among the clouds, causing the guests to marvel.
"This couple is truly a match made in heaven. Even heaven and earth are moved by them!" a guest couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Yes, it's so extraordinary. They will surely grow old together and be together forever." Another guest echoed.
The wedding continued as the guests chattered.
"Bow to your parents!" the master of ceremonies announced again. Xingyun and Hua Niao turned to face their parents, only to see the elders of Xinghan and Hua's family sitting on the throne with kind smiles on their faces.
The two of them knelt down respectfully, and each kowtow was filled with respect and gratitude for their elders.
"Children, we still have a long way to go. We must support each other, respect and love each other."
Xinghan's voice was gentle but firm. He gestured with his hand, and Xingyun and Huaniao stood up, their eyes full of happiness and anticipation.
"Don't worry, elder. We will remember it in our hearts." Xingyun and Hua Niao answered in unison, with a determined light in their eyes.
The next ceremony was the exchange of tokens before the couple bowed to each other. Xingyun took out a pair of crystal clear jade ruyi from his sleeves, handed them to Huaniao, and said softly:
"May our lives be like this pair of jade ruyi, with everything going well and happiness."
Hua Niao took the jade ruyi, her eyes slightly red, and she responded softly: "I will cherish this fate and spend every spring, summer, autumn and winter with you."
The two smiled at each other, and their deep affection and tacit understanding moved everyone present.
After the ceremony, Xingyun and Huaniao were sent to the bridal chamber, while Xinghan, on the pretext of not being able to drink much, quietly left the Hua Mansion with Shen Li.
Shen Li turned into a small pheasant and snuggled on Xinghan's shoulder. The two chatted as they walked.
Xinghan smiled and looked up at the full moon in the night sky, and said,
"Are you going to ask, 'Xinghan, are you also a little reluctant?'"
There was a hint of playfulness in Xinghan's voice.
"Yes, seeing Xingyun find his home, I feel relieved."
Xinghan chuckled, but his eyes were somewhat complicated.
"However, I am also happy for him. He finally found his own happiness. However, everything did not happen as I expected. I don't know whether this is good... or bad."
Shen Li chirped softly, as if in agreement.
Returning to Xingyun's quiet and elegant courtyard, it was already late at night and everything was silent. Only the moonlight poured down like water, covering this small world with a layer of silver gauze.
Xinghan walked on the stone road, with a barely perceptible tiredness in his steps, but more of it was emotion and aftertaste for the wedding that had just ended.
He rarely felt hungry, so he walked into the kitchen and found some plump potatoes after searching. Xinghan smiled faintly, as if he had returned to his carefree youth.
He skillfully built a fire and buried the potatoes one by one in the ashes, patiently waiting for them to emit their tempting aroma.
Seeing this, Shen Li also came over curiously and pecked the unripe potato skins a few times with her small beak, as if savoring the earthly flavor.
Seeing this, Xinghan smiled and shook his head, took out a handkerchief from his arms, and gently wiped the dust off the corners of Shen Li's mouth.
However, at this moment, a sudden explosion broke the silence of the night. The sound was rapid and violent, as if it came from the backyard.
Xinghan's expression instantly became solemn. He quickly protected Shen Li behind him and cast a star protection shield to wrap her tightly to ensure her safety.
"Shen Li, you stay here, I'll go out and take a look." Xinghan's voice was low and firm. He was well aware of his responsibility as a guardian. No matter what dangers lay ahead, he had to find out.
Although Shen Li was worried, she knew that she couldn't be a burden to Xinghan at this time. She nodded and stayed in the Xingchen protective cover obediently, following Xinghan's figure closely.
Xinghan flashed and arrived at the backyard. It was in a mess with dust flying everywhere, and it was obvious that there had just been a big explosion.
He frowned and used his spiritual power to sense his surroundings, trying to find the source of the explosion and whether there were any survivors or enemies.
As he explored deeper, an unusual atmosphere gradually spread, as if some unknown force was surging in the dark. Xinghan's heart was alarmed, he knew that this explosion was not accidental, there must be something strange behind it.
He secretly clenched his fists, preparing to face the impending danger.
As Xinghan walked through the winding corridors, avoiding the dim light of the lanterns, he gradually approached the area in the backyard that was usually sparsely populated.
The night wind blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness, but it also seemed to be whispering unknown secrets. From afar, there was a dim light in the open space in the backyard. The light was not as soft as moonlight, nor as bright as lamplight, but it had an inexplicable attraction that made Xinghan's heart tighten.
He stopped and looked around sharply, alert for any possible unusual movements. As a guardian who had experienced countless storms, Xinghan knew that in this seemingly peaceful night, there might be hidden waves.
He moved forward slowly and carefully, each step being in the silence of the night, trying not to make any sound so as not to disturb the tranquility in the darkness.
Finally, when he walked around a rockery and out of the shadows, the scene in front of him made him slightly stunned. Not far ahead, in the open space in the backyard, a familiar back figure stood there quietly, as if blending into the night, but it was particularly eye-catching against the backdrop of the dim light. He was very familiar with that back figure.
"No way?" Xinghan thought to himself.
This back looks exactly like that person, except...
He shouldn't be here at this moment.
