Marriage Under the Heavens

Qin Jiu looked towards the street following the direction the man in charge pointed.

Tianmen Street is a relatively wide street in Lijing, which can accommodate eight passengers in parallel. In such a lively day today, even the wide streets seem to be insufficient. Horse-drawn carriages shuttle, crowds are crowded, people and horses run separately, nobles and civilians all go to the street, and from time to time there are foreigners with different clothes and shoes. Across the street.

Qin Jiu saw the man in the crowd.

There is such a kind of person in the world, no matter where he walks, you can see him from the crowd.

He was standing in front of a lotus lamp, with his hand side looking at the lamp on her side. He is very tall, wearing a black brocade and fur-rim riding outfit, and a cloak of the same color. The cloak is embroidered with dark flowers with gold threads. When reflected by the light, he is shining and awe-inspiring. He is wearing black leather boots, a knife at his waist, and an ebony riding whip that he casually holds in his hand gleams with dark gold under the lamp, like his master, revealing low-key luxury.

The hazy light of the lotus lamp enveloped his profile, full forehead, straight nose, and a very young and handsome face. As if perceiving someone watching, he looked back and glanced here.

Xuan Ang's sword eyebrows are full of formidable heroic spirit. Those eyes were deep, revealing calmness and sharpness disproportionate to their age.

Durian was also looking at the man. He stared at him intently for a long while, and was very puzzled: Does such a beautiful and beautiful son need to work hard to make his sweetheart smile? How high-sighted is this Lijing woman! Looking back again, I saw Qin Jiu staring at the man intently.

He thought: Wicked girl won't like this man, right? If this were the case, it would be a good thing, and it is estimated that she would not do anything to herself. But this man is really a pity.

I wonder if such a cold man can laugh?

At this moment, the man in Xuanyi turned his head to the front and smiled slightly.

Durian has never seen a man smile so beautifully!

The soft light of the lotus lamp and the soft smile on his face blended together, dazzling people's eyes and heart, and warming people's hearts.

Such a gentle and gentle smile can only be seen in the heart, right?

Qin Jiu moved his gaze a little, and saw a young man stepping out of the crowd in front of the man's gaze.

The young man was tall and tall, only a little short, dressed in a robe embroidered with white peonies, a white fox fur cloak, black hair combed in a bun, and a white jade hairpin. His skin is white and greasy, his complexion is exquisite, and his whole person is like a jade carving, with a natural and cold charm. He seemed to have guessed a lot of lantern riddles, holding five or six lanterns earned by guessing lantern riddles in his hand, and smiled happily.

The Xuanyi man greeted him, took the lantern in his hand, and handed it to the servants who followed behind him, smiling and saying, "Let's go to Linglong Pavilion and take a look."

Young Master Bai Qiu smiled happily, and walked straight to Linglong Pavilion.

The man followed and came steadily.

Durian was dumbfounded.

He did not expect that the sweetheart of the man who stored the lantern was also a man.

He had long heard that among the nobles of Da Yuguo, there was the Hing of Long Yang, and some nobles secretly raised male pets. This kind of thing is not seen. Where did you think that it was so rampant in Lijing?

The durian side was messy in the positive wind.

The two of them had already passed by his side and headed straight towards the lantern in front of Linglong Pavilion. Two figures flashed in front of him, one after another, with a faint fragrance coming into his nose.

Qin Jiu squinted at the young man in the peony embroidered shirt, and saw that his gaze swept over the lantern, and suddenly focused on the bamboo lantern.

"This bamboo lamp is really unique!" Master Qiu Yi stared at the bamboo lamp.

It has some vision.

Qin Jiu sneered.

She had already noticed that this young man in a shirt with peony tattoos was actually a girl. It wasn't that Qin Jiu had sharp eyes, but the woman didn't really want to pretend to be a man, but just treated the woman pretending to be a man as a kind of elegance. How can a man's face be so white and greasy? What man has such a slender waist and so beautiful voice?

Such an appearance can only deceive three-year-old children and durians like durians.

A few years ago, when the ladies of Lijing went out, they were used to disguising themselves as men and regarded them as elegant things. If you do not pretend to be a man, you will put a veil on your face. Even if the top card in the brothel goes out, it will be covered with a veil. People like Qin Jiu who don't cover anything will most likely think of them as women from small families or prostitutes who have reached the bottom in the dust.

"Do you like it?" The Xuanyi man asked.

The woman in fur clothes nodded, stretched out her hand and gently stroked the bamboo lamp, as if stroking a treasure.

"Since you like it, then I have to ask for you anyway." The Xuanyi man lowered his head and said softly. He turned and asked the man in charge of Linglong Pavilion, "How can I get this bamboo lantern? Is it a lantern riddle? "

The man in charge of Linglong Pavilion greeted him with a smile, and bowed and said: "Don’t hide your son, this lantern is a rare treasure, and it’s not easy to get it. So the shopkeeper has set the rules, as long as someone can stay three hundred steps away. One arrow hits the string of the hanging bamboo lamp, who will give this bamboo lamp to Linglong Pavilion. You might as well give it a try, this lantern has not been shot yet!"

"Three hundred steps? Isn't it too far?" The Qiu Yi woman frowned.

The Xuanyi man curled his lips and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's still hard to trouble me. If you are in charge, please show me your bow and arrows. My son is going to try it!"

The manager continued to say good, and the busy man took out the prepared bow and arrow.

"I like this bamboo lamp very much too! Since there are such rules, can we also try it?" Qin Jiu stepped forward and said.

Under the dim light, a pomegranate red dress outlines her magnificent figure, the dark black bun droops to set off her delicate face, and her soft eyes are filled with a charming smile.

The man in charge was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this woman was so obsessed with this bamboo lamp. Knowing that this lamp belongs to the Xuanyi man, and also knowing that he did it to please the talents in his heart, she actually wanted this lamp. He looked at the Xuanyi man in embarrassment, not knowing what to do.

The man in Xuan Yi was also a little surprised, as if he didn't expect someone to fight for the lamp. He raised his eyebrows slightly, turned his head slowly, and saw Qin Jiu in the crowd. The cold gaze circulated on Qin Jiu's face, with sharp and sharp scrutiny like a blade.

"It's okay, since the girl likes it, it's okay to compare. My son asks the girl to please first." The Xuanyi man said lightly.

Durian did not expect Qin Jiu to do this, and was quite surprised.

The excitement here attracted the attention of pedestrians. Someone recognized the man in Xuanyi and whispered: "Where is the woman who wants to shoot arrows with King Anling. Isn't this a loss?"

Durian was taken aback. Even though he was ignorant and ignorant, his deeds about King Anling were precious to him.

They have not many descendants of the current Emperor Qing of Da Yuguo, only two princes and one princess. The eldest prince Yan Min was named King Kangyang. Anling Wang Yan Su is the second son today. He was unknown until he was fifteen. It was not until the age of fifteen that he first went to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to practice, and he solved a major case, and he became famous in the courts and the opposition. But his real fame was when he was eighteen years old. That year, King Zhang Cheng of the Western Frontiers rebelled. King Anling was ordered to lead his troops to crusade. At that time, General Li Liang was besieged the city for several days, but he could not break the city. Lure the enemy out of the city and hit the enemy's head with an arrow in the rebellion. Since then, King Anling's archery has become famous all over the world.

Now, Qin Jiu wants to compare with him in archery, no doubt it is right to lose. Moreover, three hundred steps is basically the longest range of a general bow and arrow, and it is undoubtedly extremely difficult to hit a string outside the farthest range.

Durian didn't think that Qin Jiu's three attendants-loquat, cherry and lychee had such shooting skills. Of course, he didn't think Qin Jiu had this ability. He was thinking, but he heard Qin Jiu say: "Lian'er, stand under the bamboo lantern."

"Why?" Durian wondered.

"If I shot the string, the lantern would not break if it fell. You stand underneath and go." Qin Jiu smiled and took the bow.
