Too much fruit

Chapter 810: A bosom friend in life, Jiang Li, who respects teachers
"Elder, come in."

Jiang Li picked up the Taoist instrument that carried the Xihe Taoist Fruit and called out.

The voice was carried outside the hall along with a faint aura. Jiang Bowei, the elder of the Jiang family, came in upon hearing the voice and bowed to Jiang Li, "Master."

"The divination result is out, it's a good omen."

As Jiang Li spoke, he flipped his left hand and a large bow appeared in his palm. He said, "Take these two items as betrothal gifts and send them to the palace."

Naji, Nazheng, and Qingqi were directly grouped together, and the envoys were naturally the elders of the Jiang family.

The clan elder was not surprised to hear this, but when his eyes fell on the big bow, his face changed, "This... the Sun Shooting Bow! Patriarch, this cannot be possible! The Sun Shooting Bow is the nemesis of my Jiang family's martial arts, how can you give such a thing as a betrothal gift?"

"That's why I seem sincere, isn't it?"

Jiang Li, however, showed no sign of worry at all, and said with a smile: "Besides, this Sun-Shooting Bow will eventually return to me along with my wife."

This is not the betrothal gift that Jiang Li had in his previous life. The gift is for the bride-to-be and will not fall into the hands of her parents' family.

Moreover, to be honest, doesn’t Jiang Li’s mother’s family... that is, the Gongsun family, belong to him?
Mr. Jiang is about to wipe out the Gongsun family.

Seeing Jiang Li insisting on doing so, the elder was helpless and had to take the two Taoist artifacts and leave Lieshan Hall. On the way, he asked the tribe members to fetch two wild geese, which he wanted to take with him.

Both Najib and Qingqi wanted to bring wild geese, and since they were joined together, they might as well bring one more.

In this regard, the elders of the clan are always quite persistent.

······
······
Half an hour later, in the side hall of Suhua Palace.

On the table carved from a piece of white jade were placed the betrothal gifts and two wild geese. The wild geese were placed separately, one next to the Sun-shooting Bow and the other next to the Xihe Jade Disk, looking like two betrothal gifts.

"He is quite clever."

Gongsun Qingyue looked at the things on the table and said angrily.

As soon as she saw these two objects, she knew what Jiang Li meant.

The Xihe Jade Bi was naturally given to her, but the Sun-Shooting Bow was given to Tianxuan.

This Taoist weapon that can restrain the sun cannot be used even by Gongsun Qingyue.

Jiang Li and Jiang Zhuyang can use it because although Jiang Li himself is of the fire virtue, he is not mainly of the yang attribute, and the nature of his true energy can change at will. Jiang Zhuyang, on the other hand, relies on the magical power of the Hanyue Dao Fruit.

Gongsun Qingyue is not Jiang Li, and she doesn't have any special magical powers. Forcibly using the Sun-Shooting Bow will do more harm than good.

On the other hand, Tianxuan cultivated the Way of Taiyin, and her Dao Fruit even had some connection with Houyi, so she could use the Sun-shooting Bow just right. Moreover, Tianxuan could completely use her own power to condense the Yin Arrow, replacing the Shattering Sun Ice Arrow that matched the Sun-shooting Bow.

"Junior brother treats master so well." Gongsun Qingyue looked at the Sun-Shooting Bow and felt quite jealous.

Not to mention the special significance of the Sun-shooting Bow to the Jiang family, its grade alone was superior to the Xihe Jade Bi obtained by Gongsun Qingyue. The difference in betrothal gifts was obvious at a glance.

"Silly boy."

Tianxuan walked to the table and picked up the Sun-Shooting Bow, with a look of regret on his face, "He is compensating me. He gave me the Sun-Shooting Bow to compensate me for not being able to marry him openly. And, he also wants me to give you a perfect wedding, so don't mess it up."

"Moreover, with your junior brother's current ability, this Sun-Shooting Bow cannot restrain him. The Sun-Shooting Bow was able to severely injure him once before, which was already the limit of the Sun-Shooting Bow. The Sun-Shooting Bow is not of much significance to him."

After all, the main family of the Jiang clan has been almost destroyed, and the Golden Crow Dao Fruit has also fallen into the hands of Jiang Li. Now Jiang Li is the biggest sun.

Since there is no need to use the Sun-Shooting Bow to deal with the enemy, and the Sun-Shooting Bow cannot restrain oneself, then the Sun-Shooting Bow is naturally not of much significance to Jiang Li.

But even so, it is still a third-grade Taoist weapon, which is rare in the world today.

Tianxuan injected his own true energy into the Sun-Shooting Bow with interest, sensing the changes of the bow, gently pulled the bowstring, and condensed a plain white arrow.

Although she looked regretful, she was not dissatisfied and was happy to accept Jiang Li's compensation.

"Master, won't you be dissatisfied?" Gongsun Qingyue couldn't help but ask.

It is impossible to say that Tianxuan did not want the wedding. If she did not want it, she would not have to make the previous arrangements, but now she voluntarily accepted Jiang Li's compensation and stopped participating.

This made Gongsun Qingyue breathe a sigh of relief, but she also felt a little curious.

"Why are you dissatisfied? I have already got what I wanted."

Tian Xuan held the bow and said, "Someone once said that if a couple is too sensitive, their friendship will be damaged sooner or later. Too much wisdom will hurt, so a smart person is better off finding a relatively dull partner. But I don't think so. If you are not as good as me, what qualifications do you have to spend your life with me?"

"Being too sensitive is not necessarily a bad thing. At least it can allow a couple to know each other for a lifetime. Now, the answer your junior brother gave me is enough to satisfy me."

Rather than saying that Tianxuan wants to participate in this wedding, it would be more accurate to say that she wants Jiang Li to give an answer that satisfies her.

Whether he was able to counter the opponent's moves and get married smoothly at the wedding, or seeing through it in advance like this, it was enough for Tianxuan to prove that his choice was not wrong.

That's enough.

As soon as he finished speaking, the bowstring was pulled, and a white arrow took shape. Tianxuan loosened her fingers slightly, and white light directly pierced through the top of the Suhua Palace, crossed the sky, and left a white frost mark.

"Okay, now Jiang Li knows the master's response."

Tianxuan looked at the frost mark, smiled charmingly, and said: "Disciple, it's time for you to prepare for your wedding." At the same time, Jiang Li saw the white light rising into the sky in the Jiang clan's land and also smiled.

For a moment, I felt that all the trouble I had suffered during the day was worth it, and even the good-natured brother who had gone astray halfway through seemed to be in a amiable mood.

Well, I won’t do it myself this time. I’ll go back and tell the princess that he is still in the capital.

······
······
The next two days turned out to be in line with Jiang Li's initial guess. Jiang Li did not need to prepare anything related to the wedding, as there were others to take care of it.

All traces of the mutiny a few days ago in the upper city were cleared, damaged buildings were repaired with magic, and flowers were placed on the streets.

On the wedding day, the entire capital was decorated with lights and colors, and the upper city, inner city, outer city, and outside the city all became bustling with activity.

In the afternoon, a big sun rose from the Jiang clan's land. Six dragons flew in the sun and drove the golden and red chariot together towards the imperial city.

All six dragons were the same as real dragons, with majesty in their looks. Jiang Li rode on six dragons to patrol the sky. He was dressed in a red robe with gold patterns and nine chapters on it. He looked majestic, just like the sun god descending to the earth, welcoming the bride in the most dazzling way.

Soon after the dragon carriage landed in the imperial city, it flew into the air again, with a bride on board.

Gongsun Qingyue was also dressed in red, with a curved skirt with phoenix patterns on it, and a phoenix hairpin, which made her look bright and elegant, yet noble and elegant.

The two drove the six-dragon chariot around the capital and finally returned to the Jiang clan's land near dusk.

A wedding, also known as a "hunli ceremony", is a ceremony that takes place at dusk because dusk is an auspicious time in a day, when yin and yang alternate.

The six-dragon carriage landed outside the Jiang clan's territory. Jiang Li got off the carriage holding Gongsun Qingyue's hand. With the greetings of officials and nobles on both sides, they entered the clan territory together and came to the outside of Lieshan Palace.

The wedding ceremony consists of three steps: welcoming the bride, drinking the same wine cup from the same lair, and tying the bride’s hair.

When Jiang Li married his new bride, they ate meat from a pot together in front of the Lieshan Palace and drank from the same cup facing each other, as a way of showing that husband and wife were one body and shared the same respect for each other. This is called "Tonglao Heqing".

Afterwards, he personally untied the engagement tassel on Gongsun Qingyue's head, cut a bunch of hair from each of them, and tied them together with a red tassel.

At this point the ceremony was completed and the two became husband and wife.

"Congratulations, Sikong, and Princess Zhaoyuan."

All officials congratulate here.

"Congratulations, head of the family."

The Jiang clan members congratulated each other.

"Congratulations, elder. Congratulations, young master."

The disciples of Dinghu Sect and the Gongsun Family congratulated again.

Elder Tianquan of Dinghu Sect also came with his disciples to attend the wedding with Elder Yuheng. Elder Tianji continued to stay in the sect, but asked Elder Tianquan to present the gift on his behalf.

As for the Ji family...
Jiang Li attached great importance to this wedding and would not tolerate any vulgar and embarrassing scenes, so before that he arrested all those who could cause trouble and sent them to the Heavenly Prison. Together with the group arrested before, most of the Ji clan members in the Divine Capital had been arrested. Therefore, although there were people from the Ji clan present, the sounds of congratulations were drowned out.

Afterwards, there was a grand banquet, and both the guests and the hosts were delighted.

By the time the guests gradually left, it was already late at night.

Tianxuan declined the farewell offers from the two elders Tianquan and Yuheng, and returned to the palace with Yu Shi and the eldest princess.

After finishing this complicated and meaningful wedding, Jiang Li returned to the new house of the master which had just been built.

When the door was opened, the festive colors in the room came into view. Of course, no matter how bright the red was, it could not be brighter than the bride sitting on the bed.

only······
Jiang Li closed the door and set up restrictions to prevent outsiders from knowing that there were two brides in the house.

Yes, sitting on the bed at this moment are the two brides.

The same fiery skirt, the same dress, even the same face.

"Junior brother."

"Master."

The two brides spoke at the same time, but they used different names.

"Guess who I am?"

"Or, are you willing to hear me call you Grandmaster?"

The two spoke alternately, both in Gongsun Qingyue's tone, but one of them was definitely not Jiang Li's senior sister, but his master.

Let Tianxuan call me Master...
Should I call out their identities, or let Tianxuan call me master?

In response, Jiang Li said seriously: "It is said that once you are a teacher, you are a father for life. Why don't you change your name?"

He has always been a person who respects teachers, and he also hopes that his wife will respect teachers. A master is also a teacher, right?
