My Wife is A Sword God

Chapter 294: Rules are Dead, People are Alive

“You specifically stopped me just to show off that you’ve obtained a masterpiece?” Cang Feilan’s delicate eyebrows furrowed.

“What? Not happy? Back when you were flaunting poems in front of me, my feelings weren’t much different from yours now.” Cang Mu replied softly, with a hint of amusement in her tone.

Back then, her niece had deliberately shown off the poem “Heroic Guest,” making Cang Mu envy her deeply. Now, it seemed like justice was served.

Cang Feilan snorted coldly and made no comment.

“Do you not find this poem familiar?” Cang Mu suddenly asked.

“Familiar?” Cang Feilan was slightly stunned. This poem was the first time she had seen it; how could it be familiar?

Wait a minute! Something’s not right!

“The artistic conception revealed in this poem.”

“Right, this poem was written by your beloved for his wife.” Cang Mu said casually.

With these words, Cang Feilan was stunned on the spot. She naturally knew who her aunt referred to as her beloved, and as for the wife of that person, she was well aware.

As someone who loved poetry, she naturally could sense the emotions conveyed in the verses.

Under the black square scarf, she stubbornly pursed her lips. “He stays in Jinyang City; how could he come to Hundred Flowers Valley?”

Seeing her reaction, Cang Mu sighed. “Liu Jianli returned to Myriad Sword Sect to start the Heavenly Tribulation, and he naturally came to find Liu Jianli. And perhaps you don’t know, Liu Jianli has successfully transcended the tribulation, stepping into third grade of Divine Martial Linneage, becoming the youngest Sword God in the history of The Great Qian.”

As she spoke, the woman in the black dress slowly stood up and came to Cang Feilan’s side, gently embracing her.

This stubborn girl, at this moment, looked surprisingly pitiful.

“Silly girl, many times, happiness has to be fought for by oneself. Don’t end up like your aunt who has lived for a hundred years and is still alone. Sometimes, missing the opportunity means missing it forever, and regret is of no use.” Cang Mu said as if not addressing her niece in her arms but speaking to her past self.

“But he’s already married.” Cang Feilan murmured.

“Yes, he’s already married, and his wife is none other than the famous Liu Jianli. Wanting to make her step back might not be very realistic. But you can work together, after all, the other party is Liu Jianli; it won’t be a loss for you.” Cang Mu said with a light laugh.

“But the rules of the family…”

“Want to get married? Just get married. Why bother with those rules? If the family is unwilling to provide your dowry, your aunt can take care of it.”

“As for me, apart from possessing a beauty that puts women to shame, I also have some spare money to spare.”

Although it’s called spare money, if those assets were really taken out, it would probably shock countless people. A trace of longing crossed Cang Feilan’s light green eyes, but it was quickly replaced by worry.

Cang Mu seemed to have noticed something, “What? Afraid that you have intentions, but he is indifferent? You can rest assured, I have seen many people, that kid must have you in his heart. Besides, all men in the world are the same. When they see beauty, they can’t walk away. Although you may not be as stunning as your aunt, you’re not far off.”

“If it really doesn’t work, you can just lift the veil and reveal your true face in front of him. According to the rules of the family, at that time, he won’t be able to refuse to marry.”

Cang Feilan asked in confusion, “But you just said not to worry about those rules.”

“Niece, rules are dead, people are alive. What is useful to us is a rule, and what is not useful to us is not a rule.” Cang Mu said firmly, stating a profound truth.

Early the next day, someone came to the Qin family.

Qin Feng was curious about who was looking for him. When he arrived at the front gate, he saw two familiar faces—Gong Liang and Huo Yan!

The sturdy figure of Huo Yan greeted, “Master Qin, it’s been a long time. How have you been? We came this time to bring you the well-brewed Drunken Immortal and the profits from the sales.”

The informant has arrived. Qin Feng squinted slightly and replied with a smile, “You’ve worked hard, both of you.”

At noon, the three gathered in a room at Moonlit Pavilion.

At the dinner table, after pouring wine for the two, Qin Feng curiously asked, “It’s enough for one person to deliver the goods. Why do you both need to come?”

According to his thoughts, the kings of the Divine Workshop would surely avoid such laborious and thankless tasks.

However, he never expected that two of them would come this time, and both were high-ranking figures in the Divine Workshop.

Facing this question, Gong Liang and Huo Yan looked at each other, then coughed dryly and said at the same time, “We happened to have something to do in the Southern Region.”

However, the fact was that many people in the Divine Workshop were eager to come and deliver things to Qin Feng.

The opportunity to see Master Qin was rare, and each of them had accumulated a lot of questions they wanted to ask in person.

After some competition, those kings were naturally no match for Gong Liang and Huo Yan, so they reluctantly gave up this precious opportunity to deliver things.

“I see.” Qin Feng nodded indifferently and took out several jars of well-brewed Drunken Immortal from the Spatial Ring.

His purpose was rather simple: to get the two people in front of him drunk and then inquire about the matter of the Dragon Protection Monument!

The unsuspecting Gong Liang and Huo Yuan gladly raised their glasses, toasting and exchanging cups. At the same time, they didn’t forget to throw out the various physics questions in their minds.

At this point, Qin Feng also figured out the purpose of the two who came to deliver the wine together.

After three rounds of drinks, Gong Liang and Huo Yuan not only did not get drunk but became even more spirited.

It was obviously Immortal Drunk with a very high alcohol content, but it didn’t seem to have any effect on the two of them.

“Master Qin, when chopsticks are inserted into water, they will break. Is it because of the refraction of light?”

“Master Qin, I have many questions about mechanics. Can you help me answer them?”

Although Qin Feng had been pouring them drinks, he had also had a few himself. Hearing these questions, he felt his head spinning.

He couldn’t help but ask, “Are you two really not going to get drunk?”

Gong Liang and Huo Yuan glanced at each other, both bursting into laughter. “The men of our Divine Workshop treat alcohol like water on ordinary days. We have never experienced the feeling of getting drunk since we can remember.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng’s expression stiffened. If these two couldn’t be intoxicated, wouldn’t the plan to get them drunk to gather information about the Dragon Protection Monument fail?

‘No, I have to think of a solution.’ Qin Feng thought to himself, his eyes flashing with determination. 

“You two, I’ll go out and sober up. I’ll also bring you another kind of excellent wine to broaden your horizons.”

With that, he bowed and left.

Inside the private room, the laughter of the two could still be heard, mocking him for his poor alcohol tolerance.

Qin Feng quickly summoned a waiter and whispered a few words.

The waiter’s face turned ugly. “Young Master, do you really have to go in search of those alcoholic drinks? If things go wrong, it could leave people in a coma for days and nights.”

“Just go, if something happens, I’ll take responsibility.” Qin Feng replied firmly.

Not long after, Qin Feng brought a small pot of wine and poured it with a smile for the two.

“Master Qin, what’s the deal with this small pot of wine?” the two curious men asked.

“This wine is called ‘One Cup Down’.” replied Qin Feng.

Upon hearing this, the two men exchanged a smile and paid little attention to it, raising their heads and drinking it all in one go.

Just as they were about to make a few sarcastic remarks, they felt a rush of Qi hitting their heads.

The taste of the wine was extremely poor, far from the Drunken Immortal they had drunk earlier, which was rich and mellow. Instead, it was quite strong!

In less than a moment, the alcohol took effect, and the two men, feeling dizzy, leaned on the table.

Qin Feng was very satisfied when he saw this. The fake wine was indeed reliable.
