Chapter 160 Accompanying Your Madness
Wu Kunhu’s words clearly meant that he was protecting Wu Lie. I’m giving you face by letting you ask a question. Do you really want to make it into a full fledged interrogation? Xu Qiao stared at Wu Kunhu. He knew that he had to suffer in silence! “Hmph!” Xu Qiao turned around and left. Wu Kunhu knew that from this moment onwards, their friendship was severed. After watching Xu Qiao leave, Wu Kunhu turned around and looked at Wu Lie. He simply asked in a deep voice, “Why?”
He did not ask Wu Lie whether he had done it or not. In his heart, just like Xu Qiao, he was certain that Wu Lie had something to do with this matter.
However, Wu Kunhu couldn’t understand why his son would do this?
He clearly knew that this matter would implicate himself, yet he still wanted to help Su Wen?
Wu Lie did not say a word and just lowered his head.
Wu Kunhu’s tone gradually became stern. “You’re not young anymore. You’ve been in the army for many years and can be considered an adult. I’ve taught you quite a bit, so you should know the severity of the matter. Your actions caused the Wu and Xu families to turn against each other and break off all ties. You should know the consequences.”
“Why? Just because you’re closer to Su Wen? That you chose to do this?” If Wu Lie still denied it, he would be very disappointed. Wu Lie raised his head and stared into his eyes fearlessly. “My sister likes Su Wen!” “You!” Wu Kunhu didn’t know what to say. “Just because of this?” “Isn’t that enough?” Wu Lie met Wu Kunhu’s gaze and said, “If that Su Wen doesn’t like his sister, or if he isn’t worth entrusting, then forget it. But no matter how we look, be it martial arts or family background, how can Su Wen not compare? He also likes my sister, so why can’t you fulfill their wishes?” There was a dull look in his eyes, and his heart ached.
He knew that he couldn’t be with the person he liked, but he didn’t want Wu Muyu to be like this!
Wu Kunhu sneered. “Yan Luoying’s wedding date is approaching. Do you want your sister to be someone’s mistress?” Wu Lie straightened his neck and said, “My sister is willing, what’s wrong with that?” “Your sister’s future child will not be able to inherit the title, and their cut of the family assets will also be less!”
“If you’re a man, you should naturally fight for such things. But if you’re a lady, what’s the use of these things?”
The father and son were at odds.
Wu Lie also threw caution to the wind. His face was flushed red as he said, “Even if you beat me to death, I will still say it. You are only doing this for your face! Your pride is the most important! You can’t lose face in front of your colleagues and brothers. You can’t let your daughter be of lower status than Yan Ze’s daughter! You are the Great General, Wu Kunhu. Your daughter being someone else’s unofficial wife is a disgrace to you!” At this point, Wu Lie shouted at the top of his lungs, “But! Have you thought about what my sister wants?”
With that said, Wu Lie shut his eyes tightly and said coldly, “If you want to beat me, then do so! Anyway, what’s done is already done!” “You…” Wu Kunhu raised his fist and looked at his son who stood before him. This time, he could not bring himself to do it. After a moment, he sighed and turned to leave…
He did not bother to do anything. Wu Lie cracked open his eyes, at a loss… He was not going to be hit? Then the things Su Wen had prepared for himself… were useless? Didn’t he also promise him that for each day he was bedridden, Su Wen would treat him to a day of fun? If he was not even bedridden, would that mean Su Wen did not need to treat him at all??
He hesitated for a moment before shouting, “Dad, are you not going to hit me?” “I’m not going to hit you any more. Go do whatever you want!” said Wu Kunhu without turning back. “Why don’t you hit me a few times symbolically? It’s not good to hold it in!” “Scram!”
Wu Kunhu entered the bedroom at the inner residence.
Wu Muyu’s mother smiled at him as he came in, “The child is insensible. Don’t take it to heart.”
“You heard that?”
“Yes, with your son’s loud voice, who can’t hear him?”
Wu Kunhu shook his head and said, “What he said makes sense. However, I am indeed thinking of Muyu. Su Wen might be a good person, but his temperament is unstable and he is excessively lecherous. In less than a year, he has already gotten two concubines and Yan Luoying. All of them are peerless beauties. Compared to them, Muyu doesn’t have the advantage in terms of looks and her personality isn’t gentle enough. If she doesn’t get the position of the main wife, in ten or twenty years, who knows how many wives and concubines this brat will have? At that time, Muyu will probably be left alone.” “By that time, even if Muyu wanted to fight for something for her children, she wouldn’t be able to.”
Wu Kunhu naturally had his own considerations.
His wife leaned against his chest as she chuckled softly. “If you ask me, you don’t have to be so anxious. These youths have just fallen in love, so they naturally love each other and only have each other in their eyes. However, as time passes, perhaps things will change. Muyu is still young, so she naturally wouldn’t be willing for you to marry her off to someone else right now. However, after a year, two years, three or five years, will these two children still have the feelings they have today?” “You also said that Su Wen is lecherous. When he marries one after another, won’t Muyu also start to have her own ideas? Would he also still be willing to do anything for Muyu? I’m afraid it’s all up in the air…” “To think that you’re a general. Why are you so impulsive when it comes to family matters?” Wu Kunhu slapped his forehead and said with a smile, “That’s true. I was too impatient…” Feeling the warmth of the woman in his arms, Wu Kunhu suddenly felt a heat rise up within him.
“Do you think we should have another son? Recently, that kid Wu Lie is becoming like Su Wen. He dares to do anything! It makes me angry.” The woman lowered her head and said gently, “If you want it, then… why are we only talking about it?”
“Hahaha! I won’t say, I won’t say! Let this old man charge… and make a move!”
Xu Longcheng’s reputation was completely ruined at this point. And he was too ashamed to face anyone. He hid in the residence for more than half a month.
During this period of time, Su Wen’s cultivation base successfully broke through to the 9th Stage of Star Rank! Before reaching Heaven Rank, one would not encounter any bottlenecks. One would break through once their Qi reached the required level.
Of course, there were also some people who felt that their foundation wasn’t rich enough, thus they would suppress their cultivation and stabilize their foundation. Su Wen laid on the recliner at home while Xie Yiyi and Cui Yumian waited on him from the side.
This could be precisely summarized by: The shy beauty waits under the plum blossom tree. One’s pillow would always be filled with fragrance, and a smile from the twin flowers would last for eternity. Su Wen suddenly asked, “Tell me, what should I do to attract hatred?” “Young Master is quite hated now actually!” Cui Yumian said in a low voice.
“What are you talking about? This Young Master is asking in what way I can get married that will incite the most hatred amongst people?” Su Wen knew that it would be a tall order to get people to admire and like his wedding. However, how then could he attract the hatred of the people in the capital through his wedding?
Cui Yumian pondered for a moment and said, “Make it grand!”
Xie Yiyi said, “The bride must be beautiful!” “We have to make them jealous!” the two said in unison.
Su Wen narrowed his eyes… If that was the case, Yan Luoying would have to agree. Logically speaking, the bride would not show her face in this era. However, if she didn’t show her face, then those farts would definitely be gloating over the fact that he had married a human butcher.
He sat up and said with a smile, “Alright, make a plan first. Then, I’ll go meet Yan Luoying!” In the Patrol Office, Yan Luoying was handling official business with a solemn face.
Everything was on track now. Old Zhou smiled and said, “Miss, the wedding is coming soon. You and Young Master Su Wen didn’t even discuss how to hold the wedding ceremony.” Yan Luoying stroked her hair and said with a smile, “I’ll just follow his plans for the marriage ceremony. There’s no need to be so particular about it. Even if he only brought me a small sedan chair to welcome me in, I’ll accept it. It’s just a formality.” Old Zhou shook his head and said, “Wouldn’t that be too unfair to you?”
At this moment, someone reported to her that Su Wen wished to see her.
Yan Luoying nodded. Not long after, Su Wen entered and saw Yan Luoying. He smiled and said, “My dear wife, did you miss me?” As for Yan Luoying, how should Su Wen put it? He didn’t want to marry her before they got married, so his attitude was naturally cold. After all, he didn’t want to create a misunderstanding. However, since marriage was unavoidable now, and the two of them had no deep hatred for each other, could it be that they had to put on a long face every day? Besides, Yan Luoying was very beautiful herself! He recalled the ‘teaching’ of the seniors Xu Xian and Ning Caicheng! (TL Note: Not sure where they originated from, but Xu Xian was famed for having slept with an immortal/deity/goddess, while Ning Caisheng was famous for even trying to have s*x with a ghost LMAO)
He then thought of all the seniors who had transmigrated, the former protagonists!
What demons and monsters had they not slept with before?
Who’s afraid of who… Haha!
When Yan Luoying heard Su Wen’s words, surprise flashed across her eyes. She replied sweetly, “Yes I did!” Old Zhou’s eyes almost popped out of his head. In his entire life, he had never seen his Miss behave like this. Indeed, women were completely different creatures in front of the man they liked.
He backs out quietly… as a ten-thousand-year-old bachelor. He felt as though no amount of cultivation could allow him to watch this scene and endure. [Ding-Dong, earned +1 Enmity from Old Zhou.] Su Wen raised his brows. Indeed, it was a hateful thing to display affection. After he left, Su Wen sat in front of Yan Luoying and asked, “Have you prepared the things you need for the wedding?” Yan Luoying shook her head, “I only have the wedding dress that my mother left for me.”
Yan Ze was a rough man and naturally would not care about such things.
He sent Yan Luoying to the capital after giving her some money, not even bothering to prepare a dowry for her. Su Wen smiled. “Then I’ll get Ning Shuang to prepare it for you. Also, I want us to hold an extraordinary wedding ceremony.” “An extraordinary wedding ceremony?” Yan Luoying frowned. “Is there a need?”
Su Wen said, “I think it’s necessary!”
“Then we’ll do as you say!”
Su Wen then started telling Yan Luoying about the details of the wedding. Yan Luoying was not someone who cared about formalities. However, when she heard Su Wen mention the wedding plans, she couldn’t help but say, “This is too ostentatious!” Su Wen smiled. “It’s good for me.” Yan Luoying no longer hesitated. “Okay! I’ll do as you say!”
Contrary to Su Wen’s expectations, there were no twists and turns in persuading Yan Luoying. This woman was surprisingly not difficult to persuade. Even though she did not ask for the reason, Su Wen’s one sentence of it being beneficial to him resulted in her agreement.
Su Wen’s impression of her improved a lot. Especially since she did not get to the bottom of it.
This was something he valued a lot. “Why didn’t you ask what sort of benefits I’ll obtain?” Su Wen smiled. Yan Luoying looked at him, her eyes full of smiles. “If you want to tell me, you will naturally say it. If you don’t want to tell me, what’s the use of asking? You and I are about to get married, and we’ll be the closest people in the world. If I don’t believe you, who do I believe in in this world?”
Looking at the clear eyes of the woman in front of him, Su Wen knew that she was not lying. These were her true thoughts. “Thank you!” Su Wen did not say anything
else.
A simple thank you was enough to show Su Wen’s approval of her.
Yan Luoying naturally understood what he meant. She was even happier than when Su Wen had told her a joke.
After watching Su Wen leave, Yan Luoying muttered to herself, “True feelings… must always be exchanged with true feelings… Come on, you can do it.” Su Wen’s marriage was a major event for the Su family. Su Wen’s mother brought Su Nuannuan along and started helping to arrange the wedding arrangements. The many kinds of rules and regulations they set made Su Wen’s head hurt.
“It’s better to take an unofficial wife! We can directly bring her into the residence without any trouble.”
This was Su Wen’s greatest regret. His first marriage had caused him to feel totally exhausted.
On the day of the wedding, from Yan Luoying’s mansion to Su Wen’s mansion, a red carpet was laid out. It was a luxurious blanket from Southeast Asia, extremely precious. To the Su family, they had to show off that they had the wealth to do such a thing! Su Wen’s entourage slowly arrived at the Yan family. The eight sedan chairs were already prepared. Beside Su Wen was an old lady who was in charge of the wedding procedures and rituals.
Su Wen was like a puppet with a string attached to it. He had to follow all the procedures without fail.
Finally, Yan Luoying came out. Su Wen, on the other hand, was wearing a red flower on his chest and riding at the front on horseback. The Yan family’s surroundings were already filled with onlookers. After all, in a life where the masses had a lack of money to spend, this was a sort of free entertainment they could watch.
Especially since Su Wen was a famous person in the capital. Yan Luoying walked out of the door. By right, she should have gotten into the sedan. However, Su Wen suddenly rushed over and lifted Yan Luoying’s red veil in front of everyone! In this era, this was absolutely not allowed! The mother who was reading out the procedures screamed, “My Third Young Master… What are you doing!”
For something to happen at such an important event, the mother was scared stiff.
One had to know that all of the officials were gathered at the Su Residence. Even the Emperor had personally visited the Su Residence!
She was just waiting for Su Wen to escort her back for the wedding ceremony, but Su Wen actually lifted the bride’s red veil!! At this moment, Yan Luoying was dressed in a bright red dress. She was beautiful and exceptionally gorgeous! Su Wen looked at Yan Luoying and directly carried her up. He leaped up and landed on the roof of the sedan. He shouted at the people around him, “Is my wife pretty?” At this moment, the onlookers were also stunned. When had they ever seen such a scene?
However, when they all saw Yan Luoying’s exquisite face, they could not help but exclaim, “Beautiful!”
“Haha, that’s right, she’s beautiful. I have plenty of money, so I have to marry beautiful people like her. Go be envious, you pig villagers!” Su Wen stood on the roof of the sedan and laughed wildly. He hugged Yan Luoying and kissed her! The masses of the people fell silent… “Go to hell!” “Get lost, b*st*rd!” “Is he crazy?” But there was no doubt that he stabbed exactly where it hurt, especially in the men’s hearts. Su Wen looked at the system and saw his Emotional Value rising rapidly. He laughed loudly and commanded, “Raise the palanquin. Young Master wants to tour the capital!” “Zhao Jin, present me with Yan Luoying’s dowry!”
Ning Shuang had already prepared an extremely rich dowry for Yan Luoying, but most importantly, it was because he had to show it to the commoners! “Dowry, ten boxes of gold beads… ten pairs of prosperity jades…” Under Su Wen’s command, the long line of bridal escorts began to deviate from their original route! In the bustling city, Su Wen shouted, “This Young Master is getting married. Any brides who are not as pretty as my wife from now on are trash!” “Aiyaya, my wife has so much dowry. How will she be able to spend all of them in this lifetime?”
“Come, wife, give me another kiss!” He acted like a complete nouveau riche. It made people hate him! However, Su Wen wanted this effect. Yan Luoying didn’t know why Su Wen was like this, but she still put on a smile and acted with
him.
Along the way, there was envy, jealousy, cursing, ridicule and disdain!
All kinds of dirty looks possible were thrown towards them.
If she were a normal girl, she would have fainted from crying in embarrassment. However, Yan Luoying hugged Su Wen’s arm and felt extremely happy. She looked at Su Wen standing at the top of the palanquin with a smug expression, as if he didn’t exist in the eyes of thousands of people! He continued to taunt everyone, attracting hatred, and show off his love to her from time to time, angering all the passersby. She suddenly felt that things were actually quite simple. Nothing really mattered if she only had her beloved by her side! Meanwhile, at Su Wen’s residence, a group of officials were chatting happily. Emperor Zhou also sat up in the main seat. He smiled at Su Changqing, who was beside him, and said, “Now that all three of your sons are married, this can be considered as settling one of the most important matters in your heart, right?” Su Changqing smiled and echoed, “That’s precisely so!” Suddenly, a servant rushed in. He was sweating profusely as he looked at Su Changqing. He was trembling and didn’t know what to say. “What’s wrong? What happened?” Su Changqing berated. “Young Master… Young Master ran away!” Su Changqing immediately paled. “Escaped from the marriage?” “No… he ran off with the bride…”
Emperor Zhou became interested and asked curiously, “What do you mean? Tell me in detail.”
The servant told him everything honestly. Emperor Zhou laughed out loud. “Changqing, this son of yours… is really… really interesting…”
The Zhou Emperor’s smile suddenly ground to a halt… That didn’t sound right! Even if Su Wen was shameless… Yan Luoying would not behave that way! Wouldn’t they start fighting? This is a marriage bestowed upon me by the Emperor… If the bride and groom fight on the day of the wedding… Wouldn’t it become a joke to be told for centuries to come? Even if both of them were shameless and did not fight over this, the passersby were technically country bumpkins as well and would not understand their actions. Then wouldn’t he, the Emperor, lose face in front of all the citizens! They might be shameless, this Emperor here still wants his face and pride!
When he thought about how the common people would discuss this matter in the future, he said, “It’s still a marriage bestowed by the emperor. He doesn’t abide by any etiquette at all. He’s not even comparable to a rich country bumpkin…” Emperor Zhou felt his face burning. He suddenly stood up and shouted, “Where is he! Fu An, quickly f*cking get the two of them back!” The usually gentle and refined Emperor Zhou actually cursed! Emperor Zhou’s words attracted the attention of everyone in the room. Su Wen’s actions immediately spread throughout the room. In the eyes of the Great Zhou officials, this was simply a big joke. Many people secretly laughed, but because of Su Changqing and Emperor Zhou, no one dared to show it, and no one dared to talk about it. Of course, if Xu Qiao was here, he would definitely mock them. Unfortunately, Xu Qiao did not expect such a situation. He hated Su Wen and Su Changqing to the core and did not even bother to come! At this moment, Su Wen’s Emotional Value was already overflowing. All this time, he commanded the porters to go wherever there were more people.
Yan Luoying became more and more unrestrained with her actions as well.
She also started to join the fun of drawing hatred. She hugged Su Wen and kissed him on his face from time to time, even rubbing against his body. After a while, she finally let go completely, and under Su Wen’s shocked gaze, she pulled him over and had some tongue action!
In this era, this was simply unimaginable. “Are you mad?!” Su Wen whispered. “Haha, I’m just accompanying you in your madness. Anyway, I’m the homicidal maniac that these people talk about. So what if I go a little crazy?” Looking at the excited Yan Luoying, Su Wen laughed hysterically. He hugged Yan Luoying and kissed her again! His Emotional Values started to increase rapidly as well!
“You two! What are you doing!” An angry shout was heard.
Su Wen turned around and saw Fu An!
Su Wen laughed loudly. “What does it have to do with you if I kiss my wife!”
“His Majesty wants you two to go back now!”
“Um…”
Su Wen cowered…
He had no choice. If he were to disobey the imperial edict in public, wouldn’t he be asking for trouble?
The two obediently followed Fu An back.
Along the way, he created a lot more trouble, conveniently gaining quite a lot more Emotional Value.
Fu An was speechless. Why were these two so disgusting?
Public display of affection?
He was unwilling to look back. Every time he looked back, he could not help but want to punch each of them.
Hmm… give Su Wen two punches instead.
[Ding-dong. Fu An is jealous of you, +20 Emotional Value…]
Finally, the two of them entered the Su Residence, coming face to face with Su Changqing and Emperor Zhou. At this moment, Su Changqing was filled with a mind of fog.
No matter how smart he was, he could not understand why Su Wen was doing this.
Although he did not care about losing face, Old Su was a little angry when he saw Su Wen’s mother’s pale face.
At that moment, Emperor Zhou no longer cared whether it was Su Wen’s family or not. He treated it as if it was his own palace. He sat high up and looked at Su Wen and Yan Luoying who were kneeling on the ground obediently, before pointing at Su Wen, “Come, come, come. Today, tell me, why didn’t you come back according to etiquette and instead went to parade around in the city?”
Yan Luoying said, “Your Majesty, it’s me…”
Emperor Zhou interrupted her. “Shut up. I know it must be Su Wen’s idea. You’re not that kind of child!”
Su Wen smiled and said, “Your Majesty, it was because I know that this marriage is Your Majesty’s bestowment, so I’m thinking that it would be a joyous occasion. That’s why I’m holding a parade for everyone to enjoy.”
Emperor Zhou said angrily, “Can that even be called a show for everyone to enjoy? Isn’t that infuriating? How can the lives of the common people compare to yours? If you’re so ostentatious, won’t the common people have resentment?”
Su Wen said in a low voice, “Their resentment has been going on for a long time.” “You…” Emperor Zhou pointed at Su Wen. He was so angry that his hands were trembling. He could naturally tell that Su Wen was implying something else.
Right at this moment, he noticed that Su Wen’s cultivation base had already reached the 9th Grade of Star Rank!
“Well… this boy is really a hard worker…” he mused.
“No matter what, you’re still an official of the Imperial Court. You still have to abide by the etiquette. Be careful next time…”
Emperor Zhou suddenly calmed down. Su Changqing was stunned. Just like that, his anger was blown over?
In fact, Emperor Zhou also wanted to punish Su Wen, but if it were because of this small matter, a punishment seemed too much. After all, it was a joyous occasion.
As soon as Emperor Zhou finished speaking, he found Yan Luoying glaring at him with her almond-shaped eyes wide open.
He thought for a moment and immediately realized that he had said something wrong. Since they were already getting married officially, why would there be a next time?
One had to know that in this era, the etiquette of marrying an official wife and marrying an unofficial wife was different.
Although Su Wen didn’t have any etiquette, he as the Emperor should not have implied that there would be a next time.
“It was my slip of the tongue. Luoying, don’t take it to heart.” Emperor Zhou was very kind most of the time, especially towards those who he felt were useful.
At this moment, Emperor Zhou smiled and said, “Since you’re already here, let’s get married and pay our respects! Although we’ve not followed the procedures, we can’t go without doing anything at all!”
At this moment, Su Wen’s mother was very satisfied when she saw Yan Luoying’s beautiful and graceful appearance. Her anger from before had also dissipated considerably.
Furthermore, she also knew that Su Wen was the one who wanted to do this!
“Offer your prayers… kiss the bride… into the bridal chamber!”
