Chapter 603: The Prince Consort
For the next two days, Ye Xuan and Su Mengli lived in a world of two, getting extremely bored every day.
On the third day, Xia Mo came over and informed Ye Xuan and Su Mengli: "My father is getting married to Chen Jinling. The date is scheduled for the eighth day of next month. Don't forget it then."
Ye Xuan said unexpectedly: "The eighth day of next month? Isn't it less than half a month, so soon?"
Xia Mo looked very happy: "My father is already so old, so of course he has to die soon. Hey, Mengli, why do you look different from before?"
Su Mengli awakened her original memory, and her eyes were naturally different. Compared to before, her eyes were less willful and more calm.
After hearing Xia Mo's words, Su Mengli smiled and said, "Me? Maybe because I'm more mature."
"By the way, do you know why my father chose the eighth day of the next month?"
Ye Xuan shook his head and said: "I don't know, is it because the eighth day of next month is a good day?"
Xia Mo explained: "More than that, I chose the eighth day of next month, first of all, because the day is really good on the eighth day of next month.
More importantly, the eighth day of next month is the wedding day of Princess Mingxia.
By then, most of the officials in the court will attend the princess's celebration, so naturally no one will pay attention to my parents. They are both old and don't want to be too high-profile. "
Ye Xuan thought for a moment and said, "What is the name of Princess Mingxia's prince-in-law?"
"Wang Anxu, he is the top candidate in the imperial examination and is good at painting. Even His Majesty likes his paintings. Princess Mingxia has been widowed for many years. It is normal for her to fall in love with such a young talent."
Ye Xuan was stunned for a moment when he heard the words Wang Anxu. It turned out to be him?
This seems to be another version of the character in the painting, right?
This is a real scumbag, the kind of scumbag who can't be more scumbag.
Wang Anxu was born in poverty and made a living by selling calligraphy and painting. However, he fell in love with Mei Sanniang, a brothel girl who was an artist but not a prostitute, so he saved money to meet Mei Sanniang.
After meeting, the two fell in love with each other, Lang You was in love with his concubine, and Wang Anxu had nothing, but he was able to capture the heart of a beautiful woman. This is something that would be unimaginable in modern society.
This kind of difficulty is equivalent to an unemployed vagrant picking up a pretty and famous female star.
There is absolutely no problem for a poor scholar to face a homeless person, or for a professional artist to face a female star, and even the female star has been elevated.
After all, in today's society, how many actresses are there who can actually play music, chess, calligraphy, calligraphy, music, and singing?
Most of them are actually the opposite of Mei Sanniang. Mei Sanniang sells her art but not her body. They sell their body but not their art. They really have no art to sell.
Unfortunately, Wang Anxu was not satisfied with this. He relied on Mei Sanniang's savings to go to Beijing to take the exam in order to gain a bright future.
Wang Anxu is indeed talented, and he was successfully named on the gold list.
It's a pity that he didn't come back to pick up Mei Sanniang and let Mei Sanniang enjoy the blessings. Instead, he hooked up with Chen Chuhui, a young lady from the Chen family with a prominent family background.
Chen Chuhui came from a prominent family, and she did not know that Wang Anxu was married. It could be said that she was deceived by Wang Anxu.
Later, Mei Sanniang learned that Wang Anxu was in high school and was with Miss Chen, who came from a prominent family. She was already pregnant and went to question Wang Anxu.
It's a pity that Wang Anxu lost his conscience in order to climb up. He burned Mei Sanniang and the children in her belly to death.
As for Wang Anxu, he was not with Chen Chuhui. He was admired by His Majesty for his calligraphy and painting. By chance, Princess Mingxia, who had married and lost her husband, returned, and His Majesty arranged for Wang Anxu to paint Princess Mingxia to relieve Princess Mingxia's boredom.
Princess Mingxia happened to be widowed. She developed feelings for Wang Anxu, who valued both talent and beauty, and she became an adulterer with Wang Anxu.
It's just that Princess Mingxia can't be with a married woman. Wang Anxu wants to be the consort and climb higher.
When his wife Chen Chuhui gave birth, he bribed the midwife and asked the midwife to kill Chen Chuhui.
Just like that, the second stumbling block on Wang Anxu's success was gone.
Now that he has set a wedding date with the princess, he must have killed his first two wives.
Ye Xuan has read a lot of stories about scumbags. This Wang Anxu can be said to be the scumbag among scumbags. He has reached the point where he can no longer be scumbag.
Others were killed by ghosts, and perhaps died unjustly. Wang Anxu's final outcome was that he was killed by his first two wives on their wedding night.
Of course, we need to mention here why Mei Sanniang and Chen Chuhui's fierce ghosts were able to deal with Wang Anxu in the capital.
The dragon scale on the gate of Longdu City can suppress all kinds of external monsters and ghosts and prevent them from entering Longdu City.
But if these ghosts are born inside Longdu, they cannot be suppressed.
Mei Sanniang and Chen Chuhui were both killed in Longdu. Their resentment grew on the spot and their ghosts lingered, turning into ghosts and preparing to seek revenge on Wang Anxu.
Although Ye Xuan is familiar with the plot, this Wang Anxu and even his third wife, Princess Mingxia, can be said to have deserved their death.
Because when Wang Anxu and Princess Mingxia hooked up, Chen Chuhui was still alive.
Later, when Wang Anxu killed Chen Chuhui, Princess Mingxia was very aware of it, and there may even have been Princess Mingxia's instruction.
Therefore, Princess Mingxia is not a good person and deserves to die.
Ye Xuan was not going to save any princess. He turned to say: "Xia Mo, do you know if there is any way to meet the Heavenly Master who protects the country? I want to meet this Heavenly Master."
Xia Mo shook his head and said: "This is difficult. The old Celestial Master guards the capital and is in seclusion all year round. He will only come out of seclusion when there is a great disaster in the dynasty. Let alone you, even if Chen Jinling wants to meet the Celestial Master who protects the country, it is very difficult. ”
Ye Xuan was a little disappointed and said, "Is that so? That's a pity."
"What do you have to do with the Heavenly Protector of the Country?"
Ye Xuan smiled and said, "I just want to see the elegance of the number one person in the Taoist sect."
Xia Mo smiled and said: "That's even worse. Heavenly Master Protecting the Country, if anyone wants to see you, then Heavenly Master doesn't have to do anything. He can just wait to see people."
"yes."
After learning this result, Ye Xuan was not surprised. If you can't see it for the time being, then you can't see it. You still need to be strong to make iron. If you can't see the master for the time being, just focus on improving your own strength.
A few people were chatting when they suddenly heard the sound of horse hoofbeats. Then, several evil-suppressing commanders walked in quickly: "Ye Yinling, Su Yinling, and Wu Shiyu have a situation at home. The situation is complicated. Please ask Ye Yinling to come forward and deal with it." ”
Ye Xuan's expression changed slightly: "Wu Shiyu? Okay, you guys can lead the way."
The full title of Wu Shiyu's official position is Shi Yushi in the palace. His official rank is third grade. It can be said that he has considerable status. I don't know what happened.
