Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 1967 Guests
Accompanied by the sound of drums outside the tent, Ying Baoyue walked to a simple dressing table in the corner of the tent and began to dress up.

She seldom makes up elaborately at ordinary times, she just tied up her hair after cleansing her face and it was over.But at today's wedding, all their maids have to show up to entertain guests, and Uzhina has warned her in advance that she should dress up before showing up.

"It seems that the bride's side started preparing quite early."

Murong Heng stood behind her, carefully putting on the heavy armor.

Both he and Heli will appear as Chunyu Ye's personal soldiers today.At the wedding of Xirong nobles, in order to show off their military power, the man usually brought elite soldiers to complete various war ceremonies.

The ceremony that King Zhai was going to complete at the wedding was even more grand. Today, the men from the twelve tribes are about to engage in a small-scale battle.

Murong Heng hadn't worn such a formal cavalry armor for a long time, and for a while, some parts couldn't be fastened.

"what happened to you?"

Ying Baoyue heard the abnormal sound of armor rubbing behind her, turned around, and found that Murong Heng was clumsily wearing the staggered breastplate.

She smiled and stood up, "Let me see."

Murong Heng let go of his hand, Ying Baoyue stood on tiptoe, skillfully adjusted the breastplate for him.

His eyes were a little dazed, he didn't know if it was for the person in front of him or for her doing these things.

"All right."

Ying Baoyue fastened his armor and patted the shiny armor, "This armor is quite heavy. You haven't fought a formal battle for so long, so you must be careful today."

Even though he once became a big pawnbroker by virtue of his military exploits, Murong Heng has almost a one-year blank period. Now that he has almost forgotten how to tie his armor, Ying Baoyue is really worried about his performance today.

"I know, but I just need to be able to keep up with the big troops today, and I don't need to fight head-on with those young boys." Murong Heng smiled, "I'm a married man, so I don't need to be the first."

The weddings of Zhai kings have always been the place where the young cavalrymen in the tribe performed. All the young women in the tribe would come to see them that day.

"Family..."

Ying Baoyue couldn't help being startled when she heard the words, and Murong Heng suddenly woke up from her short-term blankness.

Yes, they are just a fake couple.

He was bewitched by the scene where Ying Baoyue fastened the armor for him just now, and had a dream that he shouldn't have.

"Feel sorry."

Murong Heng whispered, "I forgot about us..."

"Don't say it here," Ying Baoyue interrupted him in a low voice.

She took a step back and looked up at the boy in front of her, "In short, no matter whether you want to win the hearts of the girls today, you must protect yourself."

She had learned in advance that weddings of Xirong nobles often resulted in death.

In order to show off their force, the men who are drunk will even fight more fiercely at the wedding than in the tribal war. Since swords are used, there will be bleeding, wounded and dead people.

Generally, the bigger the wedding, the easier it is for people to die. It happened in the weddings of King Zhai before, and more people died when the White Wolf King got married.The Xirong people are not as particular about not seeing blood in weddings as in the Central Plains. It is better to say that blood is an indispensable adjuvant for them in any occasion.

Murong Heng looked into Ying Baoyue's eyes, and his heart was slightly moved. He knew what she was worried about.

"I know," he took a deep breath, "You should also be careful when you are with Twelve Yanshi today."

If the fight between their men outside was a real battle with swords and guns, then the fight between the women in the tent was a duel without gunpowder.

He was always by Ying Baoyue's side no matter what he did in the White Wolf King's Court before, but today the two of them are in two different battlefields.

"Holding the moon," Murong Heng said with a serious expression, "Remember not to block wine for the Twelve Yan family, and be careful when eating, and don't lead the way for people whose identities cannot be confirmed."

Ying Baoyue nodded, "I understand."

Today's scene is destined to be extremely chaotic, and they must be more careful.

"Okay, let's do our best," Murong Heng smiled, opened the tent door and was about to go out, Ying Baoyue looked at his back and called out hesitantly.

"Murong Heng."

Murong Heng turned around, "What's wrong?"

"I might not come back tonight," Ying Baoyue looked into his eyes, "Uzhina told me before that Ah Man and I were required to stay outside the wedding tent during the wedding night."

Murong Heng frowned, U Rina's request was reasonable, and it was normal for a dignitary to wait outside on the first night between Zhai Wang and his wife, but on such a private occasion, he thought that U Rina would use her A maid brought from Xubu's house.

Although Ying Baoyue is a married woman in name, she is actually an unmarried girl, thinking that she will stay outside the wedding tent all night listening to Uzhina and Chunyuye...

Murong Heng was short of breath for a moment, he grabbed the tent door, "No, it's not appropriate. I'll talk to the Shieruan family and help you reject this job."

"Men are no longer allowed to approach the tent at Yan's side," Ying Baoyue smiled wryly, "You won't be able to see her. Besides, aren't you going to gather at the cavalry soon?"

Murong Heng gritted his teeth, "Why did you tell me now?"

Of course, it's because you didn't have time to find Uzhina after you figured it out.

Ying Baoyue said silently in her heart.

Now that Wu Zhina would never allow her not to go, rather than let Murong Heng offend the members of the Xubu family, it would be better to let him go from the beginning.

In the distance, the horns of the cavalry gathered sounded, and Murong Heng became anxious.

"Okay, go and get busy with your business," Ying Baoyue comforted him, "I have more knowledge than you on some things, but it's just a one-night stay outside the wedding tent, it's not a big deal."

Murong Heng was still short of breath, but that was all he could do.

"Anyway, don't force yourself," Murong Heng gritted his teeth, "I'm leaving."

"Ah, you too."

Ying Baoyue waved Murong Heng away, turned around and returned to the tent.

She quietly stared at her face in the bronze mirror, picked up the eyebrow knife on the dressing table, and put it in her arms.

……

……

A quarter of an hour later, Ying Baoyue packed up and walked out of the tent.

The tent where she and Murong Heng lived was not too far from the main venue of the wedding, and within a few steps, she saw colorful flags flying on the pasture in the distance.

Chunyuye and Uzhina's wedding was an open-air wedding, and the main ceremony of the wedding was held on the pre-selected pasture.

At this time, a shed for the guests to rest has been set up on the broad pasture, and the gifts brought by the guests are packed in carriages and parked outside the shed in rows.

Ying Baoyue walked slowly towards the pasture, at this moment, a caravan came from a distance.

This caravan consisted of twenty carriages, and the sound of the wheels rolling was so spectacular that Ying Baoyue couldn't help but look at it.
