At this moment, Mrs. Gu wanted to end this matter quickly.

She absolutely must not give the two siblings a chance to make trouble.

Mrs. Gu hugged the memorial tablet tightly, as if holding her lifeline, and refused to let go for a moment.

Gu Yanfei's quiet gaze lingered on the word "Gu Xuan" on the memorial tablet for a moment, then she withdrew her gaze, curling her right hand hidden in her sleeve slightly.

From the moment Mrs. Tai lost her composure to pick up the tablet, Gu Yanfei guessed that the "substitute talisman" of "Tao Talisman Lives" is inside the tablet.

Gu Yanfei once had the idea of ​​taking the tablet away, but just for a moment, she felt a faint breath of soul in the tablet.

The breath is very weak, because it has been worshiped by incense for many years, and it already has a glimmer of life.

At that moment, Gu Yanfei wanted to understand who the soul in this tablet was.

That was her and her eldest brother's real grandmother.

The "stand-in" who didn't even have a name.

The corners of Gu Yanfei's eyes were slightly sore, and her pink lips pursed.

But when it comes to "substitution", it will never be a good story.

She didn't know why the "stand-in" who was supposed to have his soul annihilated still had a breath of soul.

However, this talisman must not be destroyed!

Having experienced two rebirths and two hundred years of cultivation in the Yaoling Realm, Gu Yanfei knows better than anyone in this world that the disappearance of the soul means complete disappearance between the heaven and the earth, and there will be no reincarnation.

Once the soul disappears, her real grandmother will really disappear!

Not only can the talisman in the tablet not be destroyed, but it must also remain in the ancestral hall and be enshrined by the incense of the descendants.

Only in this way can the "stand-in" get a chance to re-enter the cycle.

Gu Yanfei's eyes shot out a dazzling cold light, which disappeared in a flash.

When she turned around and looked at Nanny Li who was a few steps away, her emotions had returned to calm, and she said in a calm voice: "Did you hear that, go spread the word, the Gu family will not marry their daughter today."

The golden candlelight splashed on her dark and plump hair and skin, coating her with a warm halo, but it made her eyes clearer and colder.

Nanny Li couldn't help but trembled, she hardly dared to look directly into Gu Yanfei's eyes, and subconsciously responded.

Gu Yanfei didn't say any more, grabbed Gu Yunzhen's hand and led her out, "Big sister, let's go."

Faced with this twisted development, Gu Yunzhen still felt as if he was in a dream, and he couldn't turn his head for a while: did his grandfather really appear?

When she was in the ancestral hall yesterday, she told her grandfather about her marriage with Murong's family, and also said that she didn't want to marry, so her grandfather appeared and came to help her?

Before Gu Yun really wanted to understand, Gu Yanfei pulled her towards the front hall, walking steadily, but Gu Yunzhen was still dazed, and obediently followed her away, feeling a little flustered.

Like Gu Yanfei's little follower, Gu Yuan immediately followed suit.

When turning around, his stern gaze lightly swept over the tablet in Mrs. Gu's arms again.

In fact, he still didn't understand a lot of things, and he planned to ask his sister later.

Yan Shi also didn't stay, and walked away quickly.

After the four of Gu Yanfei left, there was a moment of silence in the sacrificial hall.

The others stood there dumbfounded, their moods and expressions were so complicated that it was hard to describe, and they didn't know whether to leave or stay.

Gu Fourth Master and Gu Fifth Master and his wife exchanged glances.

Gu Yun is really in the middle of the game, the authorities are fans, they are bystanders, and the bystanders are clear.

No one is stupid, except for the young children, almost everyone else can see that the memorial tablet of Old Houye is weird.

But what is weird, no one knows...

Gu Yunxie stood there blankly, looking at the bewildered Mrs. Gu in front of her.

She felt sorry for Mrs. Tai, but she had just been scolded by Mrs. Tai in public, and now she couldn't bear to go over.

Moreover, anyone can see that Mrs. Tai is still angry. If she is angered again...then it will be difficult for her to move in this Hou's mansion.

Thinking of this, Gu Yunxie was startled, a wry smile appeared on Mingli's face, and her eyelashes drooped slightly, covering the slight fluctuation in her eyes.

Since when did she have to rely on a little favor from Mrs. Tai to survive in the mansion?

Gu Yunxie was immersed in his own thoughts, suddenly lost in thought.

"Mother." Gu Jian called out cautiously, and at the same time took a step closer to Mrs. Gu.

With this movement, he touched the wound on his right shoulder, and grinned on his face.

Mrs. Gu, who lowered her eyes, suddenly raised her head. In her cloudy and old eyes, a fierce shadow flashed, as if hiding a ferocious beast that could only open its mouth to eat people, fierce and gloomy.

The look in that moment's eyes made Gu Jian startled.

Gu Jian couldn't say the following words anymore, she closed her mouth embarrassingly, feeling her shoulder hurt even more.

Mrs. Gu glanced sideways, and said calmly: "Go."

These two words were addressed to Nanny Li.

"Yes, Mrs. Tai." Nanny Li answered in a naive manner, bowed her knees to be blessed, and hurried out.

Outside the ancestral hall, the concierge woman who came to deliver the message was waiting there expectantly. Seeing Nanny Li coming, she greeted her with a smile on her face and said, "Madam Li, Eldest Uncle has arrived at the Waiyi Gate."

What? ! Nanny Li's complexion changed slightly.

She originally expected to stop the Murong family's welcoming team before they entered the gate of the Marquis Mansion, but now that everyone has entered, it will be troublesome.

Nanny Li suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, just said "I'll go and have a look", and walked straight towards the outer door against the cold wind.

The cold wind was piercing, Li Nanny's fingertips were numb from the cold, but Murong Yong was not afraid of the cold at all.

Murong Yong is at the outer ceremony gate at the moment, he is wearing a bright red groom's gown, with a hydrangea ball tied with a big red ribbon on his chest.

The white horse under his crotch was also tied with a big red hydrangea, and a big red sedan chair was parked beside him, and beside him were two Murong family children who accompanied him to welcome the bride and several servants who were in charge of playing and beating and carrying the sedan chair. The welcoming team of no more than ten people seemed a bit shabby.

The general's mansion welcomes the relatives, and the groom's official should have invited relatives, friends and classmates to help welcome the relatives. Along the way, drums and music are played together, hoping that the whole capital will know that the two families are married.

Marrying a daughter in the Hou's mansion should also be blocked by the brother-in-law first, and the groom can only enter the door after a "test".

But because it was a celebration and the time was tight, the Murong family and Mrs. Gu had already agreed that everything in the wedding ceremony should be kept simple.

Murong Yong pulled the somewhat tight neckline, waited patiently, his sword eyebrows were slightly frowned, his handsome face was full of blush without any happy event.

Half an hour ago, he was temporarily told by his parents that his grandmother was going to be ill, and that the wedding date had to be brought forward, and then he was put on the bridegroom's wedding dress and went out to welcome the bride with the welcoming team.

Until now, he was standing in the Hou's mansion, still a little dazed.

The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder after the firecrackers exploded, and there were a few traces of hazy smoke.

The cold wind was howling, and the fine red firecracker paper was scattered all over the ground, mixed with the fallen leaves from the branches by the wind.

Murong Yong on the white horse pulled the reins and made the horse turn half a circle on the spot, raised his chiseled chin slightly, and looked at the blue sky with sharp eyes.

Regarding the so-called Chongxi, he actually held 70% disbelief in his heart.

The point is, he doesn't want his grandmother to die at this time either.

Therefore, even if there is only a three-point hope, he does not want to give up.

Murong Yong moved his eyes down slowly, and landed on the vermilion lacquer gate of the Hou Mansion, on which were nailed with thirty golden doornails in length, length, length and length.

This is the symbol of the Hou Mansion.

In the Dajing Dynasty, there were no more than five or twenty-five nails on the doors of ordinary officials' houses.

Murong's family is on this list.

Compared with the Marquis of Dingyuan, the Murong family's background is much weaker. They joined the army from their grandfather to the generation of their father Murong Hao. They fought off the Xirong people with the Duke of Wei in the northwest more than ten years ago, and made countless contributions. , Only then did the first emperor confer a reward to the fourth rank, and the whole family entered the capital.

The family of Murong's family went one step further, but it stopped there.

Ever since he was sensible, he has always wanted to make the Murong family go further, and he has been working hard for this.

If grandma left at this time, the Murong family would have to observe filial piety for three years. After three years, no one would recognize the Murong family. There are many men in this army who are passionate about fame and fortune.

He considers himself no worse than others, and is willing to shed blood and sweat for the court, but he needs opportunities and time, and the next three years are too precious!

There was scorching heat in Murong Yong's eyes, and the sharpness in his eyes made one dare not look directly at them.

After driving the white horse to turn slightly, he turned his eyes to the direction of the inner courtyard again, and a gentle and dignified figure appeared in his mind, like a lotus facing the wind, beautiful and elegant.

Originally, he thought that he was just marrying a "great lady", but yesterday's Gu Yunzhen really surprised him.

Murong Yong's eyes burned two points more, so bright, so burning, and there was a third point of interest in them.

The concierge of the Hou Mansion greeted him from the side, and said politely to Murong Yong: "Eldest Uncle, I'm afraid the Hou Mansion will have to wait for a while to worship the ancestors this morning."

It was obvious that Murong Yong was the protagonist today, but the concierge couldn't help but cast a glance at the Shangqing Daoist who was not far away in a yellow robe.

Standing facing the wind, holding a silver-white dust whisk in his hand, his eyes are like twinkling morning stars, standing like pines and cypresses facing the wind, with an extraordinary demeanor.

The concierge looked reverent.

Daoist Shangqing suddenly moved, looked up at the sun in the sky, pinched his fingers to calculate, and said calmly: "Second Master Murong, it's getting late."

"It's not good to miss the auspicious time."

His voice was neither hasty nor impatient, neither sick nor slow, detached from the mortal world.

Murong Yong frowned, and glanced at the concierge with calm and prestige.

"Eldest son-in-law..." The concierge smiled, and was about to tell people to go to the ancestral hall again, when he saw a familiar voice coming from the northwest.

"It's Nanny Li." The concierge was overjoyed, and quickly introduced to Murong Yong, "That's Nanny Li next to Mrs. Tai."

On the other side of the Waiyi Gate, Nanny Li walked over with a few women.

She walked not fast, and her usually smiling face showed a little seriousness at the moment, which surprised the concierge.

Nanny Li stopped at a place about seven or eight steps away from Murong Yong, blessed the body politely, and said:

"Second Young Master Murong, our wife has said that this marriage is not over."
