Chapter 1297: A human Taisui, a demon descended from the heavens!

Before the New Year had even passed, the Ningguo Mansion welcomed a joyous event.

The Marquis of Loyalty and Valor, Jia Jue, was to marry the daughter of the Engineering and Construction Bureau official.

Inside the bustling mansion, Lin Zhixiao was busy directing the staff, his face filled with anxiety. Because today was the Marquis's wedding day, if any trouble arose, everyone would suffer, so even though he was usually composed, Lin Zhixiao was exceptionally tense today.

Watching Lin Zhixiao rushing back and forth, Jia Liu Shi was very satisfied.

Because this was the steward her son had "redeemed" from the Rongguo Mansion for five hundred taels of silver!

"Since I was small, Mom and Dad told me that Huangmei Opera isn't easy to sing."

Patting his leg, Zhang Cheng's face was full of smiles, appearing exceptionally happy.

"Uncle, you're still singing? The time is almost here!"

Arriving at Zhang Cheng's side, Jia Wei couldn't help but shout.

Because he discovered that the entire mansion was busy, yet his uncle remained calm and indifferent, as if he weren't the one getting married.

"Oh, don't panic, it's just a wedding!"

Speaking to Jia Wei, Zhang Cheng laughed.

"Brother, we've prepared everything, why haven't you changed your clothes yet!"

Running in from outside, Lin Daiyu, Jia Yingchun, and the others were all carrying various items in their hands.

Seeing them urging him, Zhang Cheng stood up and said, "Alright, alright, I'm going now!"

As he spoke, Zhang Cheng changed his clothes and walked out of the house like a banished immortal.

Seeing Feng Ziying and the others who had been waiting for a long time, Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "I'll have to trouble you brothers a lot today!"

"Brother, you are too polite; this is what we should do!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's polite words, Feng Ziying and the others immediately cupped their hands in salute.

Looking at Jia Baoyu standing in the crowd, Zhang Cheng hadn't expected that he would actually come.

However, this was all because Jia Zheng had ordered him to come, because today was his "brother's" wedding; if Jia Baoyu didn't come, he would truly be beaten to death!

"Come, come, brother, put this on!"

Walking up to Zhang Cheng, Jia Lian didn't say a word before hanging a large red flower on him, making him look exceptionally festive.

Looking at Zhang Cheng's appearance, Feng Tang and the others not far away also smiled and said, "Hahaha, only today does Brother Jue look like a young man!"

"Exactly, exactly!"

Stroking his beard, Jia Zheng and the others also laughed.

And just as the group was heading toward the Qin family in a grand procession, the guests also began to arrive to offer their congratulations.

Watching the people coming and going, Jiao Da was responsible for registration, while the task of welcoming guests was handed to Jia Zheng.

"Daishan, Dorgon, and Manggultai have come to offer their congratulations!"

Just as Jiao Da was writing in the ledger, he looked up and saw three people wearing queue braids.

"Hahaha, General Feng, it's been a long time, do you still recognize me?"

Stepping forward with a face full of smiles, Daishan looked at Feng Tang and spoke immediately.

"Daishan? Why did he come?"

Looking at Daishan in shock, the military officials were all stunned on the spot.

"How could Feng Tang not recognize the Beile?"

Stepping forward with a hypocritical face, Feng Tang whispered, "You aren't here to find trouble, are you? You should know, Brother Jue doesn't have a good temper!"

"Hey, hey, hey, General Feng, Daishan is not that kind of person! I am simply here to offer congratulations and drink a cup of wedding wine!"

Speaking with a smile, cold sweat dripped down Daishan's forehead.

Because if he dared to find trouble on the day of Zhang Cheng's wedding, whether he could leave the Shuntian Prefecture alive was a question!

Hearing Daishan say this, Feng Tang and the others finally relaxed.

"All who come are guests, come inside and let's chat!"

Arm-in-arm with Daishan as they walked inside, Feng Tang couldn't help but tease.

Because among the military officials who came today, who hadn't fought against Daishan? So, everyone had plenty to "chat" about!

Watching Daishan being dragged away, Dorgon and Manggultai also sensed something, but just then, the people surrounding them smiled and said, "Come, come, let's go inside and drink!"

"They aren't trying to drink us to death, are they?" Looking at the enthusiastic "military officials," Dorgon was surprised.

"Hmph, drinking, are they even worthy?"

Speaking with a face full of disdain, Manggultai saw that Zhang Cheng wasn't around and grew bolder.

"Third Brother, well done, keep your spirits up, don't lose face!"

Patting Manggultai on the shoulder, Dorgon's face was full of smiles.

And hearing Dorgon's words, Manggultai was stunned for a moment, because why did this sentence sound so familiar?

On the way to the Qin family, Zhang Cheng rode his horse, his face full of smiles.

And just as the gongs and drums procession moved forward, Xue Pan, who was at the side, was scattering wedding money to the commoners on the street.

Scrambling happily, many people also offered auspicious words one after another.

In a small alley, the Scabby-Headed Monk pinched his fingers and said, "This isn't right, why has the person fetching the bride changed? If the Fairy finds out about this, won't we be in trouble?"

And just after the Scabby-Headed Monk finished his divination, he walked out immediately, but the moment he saw Zhang Cheng, he was stunned on the spot, so scared that he hurriedly hid back into the alley.

Because the young man on horseback in front was surrounded by a towering, majestic blood aura, like an evil dragon.

"Is this damn thing even human?"

Speaking in disbelief, the Scabby-Headed Monk felt his whole body go weak.

"Hmm?"

Sensing someone watching him, Zhang Cheng slowly turned his head, staring at the alley with the gaze of an eagle and a wolf.

"A human Taisui, a demon descended from the heavens!"

Wiping away cold sweat in shock, the Scabby-Headed Monk had already hidden in the alley when he turned his head, feeling a sense of terror.

Because if he were targeted by that "evil dragon," he would definitely die!

"This isn't right, I can't calculate it, I can't calculate it at all! Everything is in chaos..."

Pinching his fingers, the Scabby-Headed Monk was already covered in sweat. But the next moment, as he continued to divine the secrets of heaven, his whole body withered, and he coughed up blood continuously, saying, "The destiny of the dynasty is all on one person, yet he is not the emperor. Hahaha, have I gone mad? What have I seen, what have I seen..."

Just as the Scabby-Headed Monk was having a breakdown, Zhang Cheng sneezed and said, "It's a bit cold today!"

"Pfft!"

Spitting a mouthful of blood onto the ground, the Scabby-Headed Monk felt as if his body had been drained, struggling to crawl outward. He didn't believe what he had seen; he wanted to see again what that thing really was!

However, the moment he crawled back out, he saw the majestic blood aura in the distance instantly condense into a dragon, opening its bloody maw toward him.

"Jing Huan has ruined me..."

Watching the baring-fanged giant dragon arrive before him, the Scabby-Headed Monk lost all resistance in an instant, his soul crushed in a flash.

Zhang Cheng: Doesn't he know I have someone above me?

Scabby-Headed Monk: I have someone above me too!

Fairy Jing Huan: No, you don't!

Completely unaware of what had happened, Zhang Cheng said with a puzzled face, "If I marry Qin Keqing, will that Scabby-Headed Monk and Lame Taoist come looking for me?"

But after Zhang Cheng thought of this, he shrugged his shoulders and said, "Forget it, we'll talk about it when the time comes! I don't believe those two can escape from an army of thousands."

Are martial arts experts powerful enough? Ask them if they dare to fight against a fierce general wearing armor.

You have Zhang Liang's strategies, I have the Divine Machine Battalion!

The root of fear is the unknown, but if you add sufficient firepower, then it's no longer a problem!

If that's still not enough, then just increase the intensity and flatten them with cannons.

In the Qin family, the character for "joy" was everywhere.

Inside the room, Qin Keqing was looking in the bronze mirror, her face full of shyness.

"Miss, you are truly beautiful today!"

Arriving in front of Qin Keqing, Baozhu and Ruizhu both smiled.

And just as the two were speaking, Qin Keqing's face turned even redder.

"Sister, sister, brother-in-law is here!"

Running in from outside, Qin Zhong shouted.

Hearing Qin Zhong's words, Qin Keqing couldn't help but lower her head, her face buried between her high mountains.
