The Doctor’s Three-Time Marriage - #460 - Lantern Festival Lantern Festival
Starfall Island.
When Sheng Yue saw He Wei again, three days had passed since Mo Yan locked those rebels into the portable space.
This time Sheng Yue didn’t see how Mo Yan did it, but everything in the forbidden area basically returned to its original appearance. The high wall that had been retracted into the space fell to the ground when it reappeared, because the wall itself was fixed by the foundation and had broken.
Sheng Yue stepped over the rickety broken wall and walked into the forbidden area. He saw that the people who came to force the palace with torches three days ago on New Year’s Eve were all kneeling outside the Moyan courtyard, with their heads hanging down, looking embarrassed and haggard.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, a man turned his head and looked over blankly. It was He Wei’s eldest grandson He Peng. His eyes fell on Sheng Yue. His previous disgust and arrogance were gone, only fear remained, as if he had just Been through terrible things.
Mo Yan was in his small courtyard, holding a broom and sweeping the fallen leaves under the big banyan tree.
Master. Sheng Yue walked around the kneeling people and stopped at the door to salute.
He Wei, who was kneeling at the front, raised his head when he heard the sound, glanced at Sheng Yue, and immediately lowered his head. He didn’t know what he thought of, and his body trembled slightly.
I don’t blame them. Mo Yan swept the fallen leaves into a pile, lit a fire stick, and ignited the fallen leaves. The flames quickly jumped up, and his face was half-darkly illuminated by the firelight. People tend to suffer because of Ignorance leads to stupidity. Fearlessness is a good thing, but the fearlessness of the ignorant can sometimes be fatal.”
Sheng Yue said respectfully, Master, how do you plan to deal with the rebels?
Mo Yan looked indifferent, Do you think they will still have different intentions after this incident?
Sheng Yue shook his head, No.
I didn’t know before, but now that I know, and it’s the Chinese New Year, I should give some gifts to my granddaughter, grandson-in-law, and little great-grandson to express my feelings. Mo Yan said, smiling slightly, Ah Yue, what do you think I should give you?
Sheng Yue pondered for a moment and then replied, Gu Ling and Su Liang are in need of everything in terms of status and wealth now. If the master wants to give a gift, his heart is the most important.
Mo Yan nodded, You are right. Most of the previous conflicts were caused by He Wei’s deception. If we had known that Su Liang was my granddaughter, we could have sat down and discussed it, and many things would not have happened at all. They also knew that, My purpose is not to harm anyone. If the road is opened and they can return to that more civilized and advanced world with me, wouldn’t everyone be happy? What do you think?
Sheng Yue nodded, My master is right. But my subordinates think that with Gu Ling and Su Liang’s temperaments, they may not be willing to take risks for this.
Hearing the last two words, Mo Yan’s face was covered with a layer of gloom, as if he was muttering to himself, I have to take that step… As he spoke, the conversation suddenly changed, Although I believe they dare not do it again. We have different intentions, but such a big thing cannot be treated as if it never happened. Let He Wei come in.
Sheng Yue walked out of the courtyard and met He Wei’s uneasy eyes.
Master asked Mr. He to go in and talk. Sheng Yue looked calm. It has been known for a long time that he and the He family are at odds with each other, because the He family has been targeting Sheng Yue. But Sheng Yue never lost his temper in front of the He family, not even a little bit angry.
He Wei got up from the ground, almost unsteady, but Sheng Yue reached out to help him. He took a deep look at Sheng Yue, with regret flashing in his eyes, but it was not regret that he had treated Sheng Yue that way, he just regretted that he was not as calm as Sheng Yue.
As soon as he entered the yard, He Wei knelt down again, opened his mouth and cried bitterly, Master, forgive me! Master, forgive me! This old slave was confused for a moment and made a big mistake. He is unworthy of his decades of trust in his master. This old slave deserves to die!
In the past, He Wei would not call himself an old slave, and Mo Yan also gave him the honor he deserved on the island. He even promised that he would help him win the world before leaving, and he actually took practical actions for this. But obviously, after the failed rebellion and entering Mo Yan’s space, He Wei completely lost his previous ambitions.
Lao He, I’ve treated you well over the years, haven’t I? Mo Yan spoke with a cold voice.
He Wei nodded repeatedly, Yes, the master treated the old slave very well. It was the old slave who was stupid and made a big mistake! Please give the old slave another chance to atone for his sins! The old slave vowed to bring his children and grandchildren together. I’ll kill my master to death!
We have been hiding on Xingluo Island for so many years, and we started leaving the island last year. What I asked you to do is for you, for the entire Xingluo Island, not for myself. Even if I go there in person, do you think I am interested in this? Are the powers in the world interested? Mo Yan asked.
Cold sweat broke out on He Wei’s forehead, Yes… the master is doing this for the sake of the old slave and the people on the island. The master is not interested in the power in the world. The old slave knows…
The word subjects elevated Mo Yan to the same status as the king of a country.
How did you repay me? If you had told me immediately when you found out that Su Liang was my granddaughter, everything would not be like this. Before the conflict between me and Su Liang intensified, there was a chance. If you get to know her and negotiate carefully, it won’t be difficult to achieve the glory and wealth you want. Mo Yan snorted coldly.
He Wei raised his hand and slapped himself hard, Every mistake is my fault!
Now that things have happened, for the sake of the future of Xingluo Island, I have to sincerely apologize to my granddaughter Su Liang for what happened before. Mo Yan looked at He Wei coldly, You are the one who made it impossible for our ancestors and grandsons to recognize each other and intensified the conflict. The culprit is that after so many years of friendship, even if you don’t do things well, I have been giving you opportunities, but you don’t know how to cherish them. Now that things have happened, don’t blame me for being ruthless. Don’t worry, when you go, I will help you. The He family has left behind blood, and Rou’er is my favorite child.”
He Wei heard this and fell to the ground, his face turned ashen for an instant. The moment he entered, he knew that it would be difficult for him to get out alive. No matter how big or small the country is, rebellion is never condoned, and Mo Yan has never been a tolerant and kind person. Mo Yan wants to use his life to establish his authority and scare others. But until he heard the last sentence, He Wei thought that Mo Yan would care about the relationship and only kill him and spare his children and grandchildren. However, he did not expect that Mo Yan said that he would leave blood to the He family, but he only mentioned that Xing Xing had already betrayed him. Min Rou, who fell off the island and defected to Su Liang… Although Min Rou was He Wei’s direct granddaughter, her surname was not even He!
Master, I know that my crime deserves death, but I beg you, Master, to spare my children and grandchildren and let them redeem their sins! Everything is my fault! He Wei knocked his head heavily on the ground. Another blow, and soon his head was bleeding.
The people kneeling outside heard He Wei’s cry, but the people who followed He Wei three days ago and claimed that they would go through fire and water for him were all silent now. Not even He Wei’s son or grandson had the courage to raise his head.
Mo Yan’s clear and cold voice came from the courtyard, The He family has incited rebellion and destroyed the stability of Xingluo Island. It is an unforgivable crime and the entire clan will be executed. New𝟔𝟗书吧𝟨𝟫𝓼𝓱𝓾𝔁.𝓬𝓸𝓶
Among He Wei’s children and grandchildren, some reacted quickly and wanted to run away as soon as they got up, while others reacted slowly and sat on the ground with dull expressions. Some of them had foreseen their inevitable death and began to cry.
But without Mo Yan and Sheng Yue taking action, the escapees were quickly captured by others. Since only the He family was in trouble, it meant that the others were safe. Naturally, he had to seize the opportunity to perform meritorious deeds and let Mo Yan vent all his anger on the He family.
Soon, the He family, which had once been domineering on the island, were all captured.
But He Wei never saw his children and grandchildren again, because Mo Yan ordered Sheng Yue to take off He Wei’s head, and Sheng Yue immediately complied.
Sending He Wei’s head to the capital is my sincerity to apologize to my granddaughter. Mo Yan said to Sheng Yue, his eyes very gentle, I wrote a letter explaining the whole story. Other gifts, It’s all ready too.”
Sheng Yue wrapped He Wei’s head in cloth and put it in a box. Regarding the matter of sending people to Kasyapa City to deliver gifts, Mo Yan did not leave it to Sheng Yue to make arrangements. Instead, he asked two other subordinates who had been guarding the forbidden area to go there.
The two people quickly left Xingluo Island, carrying a boat full of gifts. In addition to He Wei’s head, there were also many treasures collected by Mo Yan’s subordinates over the years, including many precious ones. of medical books. There is also a personal letter from him to Su Liang.
Mo Yan ordered the two men to take the things to the coast of Kasyapa City, hand them over to Qiu Jing, and then turn back without going ashore.
The He family, who was once under one person on Xingluo Island, completely disappeared in one day. He Wei’s headless body was thrown into the sea together with his children and grandchildren.
Peace has returned to Xingluo Island again, more peaceful than ever. There were no more hanging corpses in the woods by the sea, but except for the ignorant children, everyone on the island except Mo Yan seemed to have forgotten what laughter was.
That night, Sheng Yue personally went to the beach for inspection. A young man reported to him the situation tonight and was about to leave when Sheng Yue stopped him again, Help me turn on the lights.
The young man quickly took the lantern from Sheng Yue’s hand and followed him in one direction.
After walking for a while, the surroundings were quiet, and only the sound of distant waves could be heard. Sheng Yue didn’t look back and asked, Where did you go on New Year’s Eve?
The lantern shook violently, and the young man looked uneasy, Master Sheng is asking…
That space. Sheng Yue said directly, You know what I’m talking about, you’ve been in it. How big is it in there? What does it look like?
This… I don’t dare to talk too much for fear of being blamed by my master. The young man’s voice became lower and lower, and the lantern in his hand kept shaking.
You don’t have to say anything. I will kill you now. All you need to do is say that you are going to defect. No one will care about you, and no one will remember you. You are still young, do you really want to do this? Sheng Yue’s tone was cold.
The young man looked up and saw a corpse hanging on a tree not far away, swaying gently in the wind, which was very eye-catching.
Master, please don’t kill me… I said… the young man’s voice trembled.
About a quarter of an hour later, the two reached a cliff by the sea.
The wind howled and the waves crashed against the rocks below.
Sheng Yue stopped, turned around, and stretched out his hand. The young man quickly handed him the lantern in his hand.
Sheng Yue took the lantern and saw the young man retreating subconsciously. He said calmly, I’m not going to kill you. You can go back.
The young man’s face showed the lightness of his life after a disaster, I won’t tell anyone what happened tonight! After saying that, he turned around and ran away.
Sheng Yue walked to the edge of the cliff, looked at the dark rocks and sea below, and stood quietly for a long time before leaving with a lantern.
…
Beijing.
After the New Year, it will soon be the Lantern Festival.
This is the first Lantern Festival after the unification of the world, and a grand lantern show will be held in the capital.
Duanmu Chen also specifically discussed with Gu Ling and Su Liang, asking them whether it would be inappropriate to hold a lantern party at this time, and whether someone would come to make trouble on Xingluo Island? After all, there will be a lot of traffic at that time, and if something goes wrong, the consequences will be disastrous.
Gu Ling and Su Liang both felt that there was no need to be so nervous. The remaining biggest enemy, Xingluo Island, has already clashed with them several times. From the beginning, they wanted to kill Duanmu Chen and Su Liang, and wanted to help the Liang royal family fight against the Qian Kingdom. Now, Mo Yan and his followers have Dormant returned to Xingluo Island, and his confidant Sheng Yue took the initiative to show his goodwill to Gu Ling and Su Liang. Not surprisingly, Mo Yan already knew that Su Liang was his granddaughter… There will definitely be a fight next, but it won’t happen There are low-level methods like killing innocent people that have no meaning other than intensifying conflicts – Mo Yan is not an impulsive person, otherwise he would not have spent most of his life for one goal.
Although Su Liang and Gu Ling thought there was no problem, they still reminded Duanmu Chen to arrange for people to maintain order and avoid accidents such as crowding and stampedes. Duanmu Chen handed over the matter to Lin Boyan and General Lin Bojun, who were now prime ministers, and put their brothers in charge.
The sun had just set, and the children in Su’s mansion couldn’t help but want to run out to play. This is also the first time Ji Xiaoshu and Yuanye have celebrated the Lantern Festival in the capital, and they are looking forward to it.
Xiaoshu, Uncle Xiaoye, don’t worry, the best room in my restaurant has been reserved for us. We are guaranteed to see the most beautiful lanterns. Zheng’er was very calm.
I’m going to see why Master and Master’s rice dumplings are not ready yet! Ji Xiaoshu ran out in a flash. Not long after, he came back following Gu Ling.
Gu Ling and Su Liang not only made boiled glutinous rice balls, but also fried glutinous rice balls. The skin colors of different fillings were different, but they were all small and cute. Because Su Liang said it’s easy to get tired of eating big glutinous rice balls.
Everyone sat around a table and tasted delicious glutinous rice balls.
Ji Xiaoshu took one bite and finished it quickly, then scooped another one out of Gu Ling’s bowl, It’s so delicious!
Cen Man wanted to give Ji Xiaoshu two more, but he refused with a smile, No, I’m full. I just like to eat Master’s food!
Everyone knows this.
After dinner was over and the glutinous rice balls were eaten, everyone in the Su family went out to watch the lanterns.
Lao Bai held Gu Xiaonuan, Cen Man accompanied Wen Ming and Wen Ran’s grandson, Qi Yan accompanied his fiancée Nangong Qian, Gu Ling held Zheng’er, and Su Liang held the bouncing Ji Xiaoshu. The wilderness ran between them.
In order to avoid crowding the children, the group bypassed the crowd and went directly to Wanjia Restaurant. Many relatives and friends had already arrived early.
Master Wife, there is a beautiful lantern there! Ji Xiaoshu pointed to the lotus lantern hanging on the high shelf below.
Tell your master to buy it. Su Liang said with a smile.
Master, I want that! Ji Xiaoshu took Gu Ling’s arm and shook it.
Gu Ling turned around and asked Zheng’er, Do you have anything you like?
Zheng’er looked at it for a while and then pointed at one.
Then Gu Ling flew out of the open window, causing a burst of exclamations. It’s really a fairy descending to earth, extremely beautiful.
Soon, Gu Ling came back with the lanterns the two apprentices wanted. The condition is that they are not allowed to run around down there, it is unsafe.
Ji Xiaoshu and Zheng’er carried lanterns and ran to the next room to play. Old Bai Cenman and the others also went to chat with friends and drink tea. Nangong Qian and Qi Yan were walking downstairs holding hands, and Nangong Qian went to talk to Min Rou.
Only Gu Ling and Su Liang were left in the room, sitting by the window and looking at the bustling scenery below.
Among the crowd, there were two plain-looking men who were slowly walking forward with the flow of people. It was after Gu Ling rescued Lao Mu and Yuan Ying that he was sent by Mo Yan to look for Feng Ming and Sheng Yue. Zhu Zan. The two of them were followers of Sheng Yue on the island.
The reason why it took so long to arrive in the capital was because after leaving Xingluo Island, in order to avoid being discovered by the defense forces near Kasyapa City, the two of them took a long detour before landing. As soon as they landed and found out that Su Liang was okay, they couldn’t help but be suspicious. Something happened to Sheng Yue, so he never returned to Xingluo Island.
Feng Ming was a shrewd man and knew that if Sheng Yue died or something happened and he couldn’t go back to the island, or if he could but couldn’t go back, it would be best for him and Zhu Zan not to go back to Xingluo Island. Because that place is controlled by the He family, they will only be squeezed out and have no chance of getting ahead. Coupled with the environment on the island and the relationship between people, they also felt uneasy: Mo Yan was too mysterious and they couldn’t figure out what he wanted.
Therefore, under Feng Ming’s strong persuasion, Zhu Zan finally decided to join him and take advantage of the opportunity to leave Xingluo Island to do business, get rid of Xingluo Island’s control and become a free man.
But both of them are orphans, otherwise they would not have gone to Xingluo Island before, and going to Xingluo Island means that they want to make a difference. After visiting many places aimlessly, the two finally discussed and decided to come to the capital to look for opportunities.
At this time, Feng Ming looked up and saw the beautiful couple sitting by the window of the restaurant. Under the moonlight and lights, it is so beautiful that it is not an exaggeration to say that it is like a fairy descending to earth.
Don’t look, be careful to get targeted by them. If we let them know where we come from, it will definitely not end well. Zhu Zan pulled Feng Ming and said in a low voice.
Feng Ming lowered his head, grabbed a child next to him who almost fell, and then pretended to look at the lanterns on the roadside stalls. What do you think if we take the initiative to reveal our identities and go to those two people?
Zhu Zan’s eyes widened, Are you crazy?
Feng Ming shook his head, I’m not crazy, I’ve been thinking about it for a long time. If I hadn’t been targeted by people from Xingluo Island because of a competition, I had planned to go to Qian Country to join the army, but I missed the opportunity. If you are afraid, just do it Say goodbye and go our separate ways. I came to the capital just to find a wise master. After saying the last sentence, Feng Ming looked towards the restaurant again and met Gu Ling’s indifferent gaze.
