Chapter 567 The Young Swordsman's Tale: Underworld Chapter 13
(Many fans have asked me to write a little more about watching The Legend of Qin, so I'll put it here.)
"Huh? Isn't this Xiao Ruojin's wedding? Why did the scene suddenly switch to here?" Emperor Xiaokang stared wide-eyed at the joyous scene before him, his brows furrowing slightly, completely bewildered.
Emperor Tai'an, equally bewildered, frowned and echoed, "I don't know! And did I just mishear? Xiao Yu actually called Xiao Ruofeng's tombstone 'brother'?"
If I remember correctly, Xiao Ruofeng is his son, and Xiao Yu is his grandson. Now Xiao Yu calls Xiao Ruofeng "brother," isn't that a generational difference?
"Is this screen broken? Is that why the picture is playing incorrectly? Didn't we see this part before?" Emperor Mingguan walked in front of the large screen, patting it twice as he spoke.
However, the big screen remained unchanged, stubbornly continuing to play images of 'Xiao Ruojin' and Na Yiwenjun.
The three couldn't help but turn their gaze to Xiao Yi, only to see that Xiao Yi's brows were furrowed and his expression was serious as he looked at 'Xiao Ruojin' in a bright red wedding dress in the picture, clearly also somewhat puzzled.
Xiao Ruofeng, standing to the side, seemed to have thought of something, staring blankly at 'Xiao Ruojin' in the picture.
Seeing the two of them like this, the three of them were a little confused and could only turn their attention back to the big screen.
The once familiar scene has now undergone a dramatic change.
On this day, Ye Dingzhi was supposed to be secretly taken away from Jingyu Prince's Mansion by Ye Xiaoying after his failed attempt to abduct the bride, thanks to Xiao Ruofeng's careful arrangement.
Even though Yi Wenjun was determined to die, she gave up the idea of committing suicide in public because Ye Dingzhi did not break his promise and oath, and successfully married Xiao Ruojin.
After marrying Yi Wenjun, Xiao Ruojin successfully formed an alliance with the Shadow Sect, and then had their grandson, Xiao Yu, with Yi Wenjun.
However, the images being projected on the big screen are quite different from the development trajectory they knew.
When Xiao Ruojin learned about Ye Dingzhi's attempt to steal the bride, she not only had the guards at the gate stop Ye Dingzhi and Ye Xiaoying, but also decisively knocked out Yi Wenjun, interrupting the grand ceremony of taking a concubine.
"How come this is... different from what I've seen before?" Emperor Mingguan glanced at the expressions of the others and said in a low voice.
Xiao Yi frowned, pondered for a moment, and finally spoke: "This should be the parallel world that Yan Jun mentioned. Because a certain person in history, at a certain historical juncture, suddenly deviated from the predetermined course of action due to certain people or events, which led to a huge change in the subsequent historical trajectory, and thus gave birth to a completely different parallel world."
"So that means that what's being shown on the big screen now, although it's the same world we saw before, has deviated from the course of history because 'Xiao Ruojin' made a different decision, so the big screen is restarting from the point where 'Xiao Ruojin' changed things?" Emperor Xiaokang suddenly realized, his voice tinged with excitement.
Xiao Yi nodded: "That's right, that's roughly the idea."
Emperor Xiaokang slapped his thigh, his face beaming with joy: "So, with Ye Dingzhi captured by 'Xiao Ruojin' this time, wouldn't that prevent the Demonic Sect's eastern expedition from happening again?"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Tai'an hesitated, his expression flickering. He seemed to want to say something, but the thought that he was still in power in the scene sent a chill down his spine.
Recalling how badly her father had treated her when she first came down from the mountain, she chose to quietly keep a low profile.
He was afraid that if he did something wrong in the scene, he would be scolded by the ancestors in front of him again.
However, Emperor Mingguan still saw him in this state, and couldn't help but frown and scold him, "Emperor Xiaokang is speaking over there, what are you babbling about here?"
“Uh…” Emperor Tai’an hesitated for a moment.
Emperor Xiaokang disapproved of his behavior, glanced at him, and said coldly, "Am I wrong? What are you doing over there making all that noise?"
After being reprimanded by the two men, Emperor Tai'an finally mustered his courage and cautiously asked, "Do you think... now that 'Xiao Ruojin' has terminated her wedding ceremony with Yi Wenjun, will it delay the birth of Xiao Yu?"
Will it... delay Xiao Yu's birth?
A word to wake up the dreamer!
The hall fell into a deathly silence. After digesting the meaning of those words, several deafening roars suddenly erupted.
Emperor Tianwu roared in fury: "No way! Is this 'Xiao Ruojin' out of her mind?! If he's stopping Ye Dingzhi, fine, but why is he trying to stop his wedding with Yi Wenjun?"
Emperor Xiaokang roared, "***I told you 'Xiao Ruojin' is nothing! He might as well have done nothing at all, just slept with Yi Wenjun and had Xiao Yu born. Doesn't he have any self-awareness? His main task is to give birth to Xiao Yu! Give birth to Xiao Yu!!!"
Emperor Mingguan cried out in grief and indignation: "That's right! What if this matter delays their future development and then my precious grandson Xiao Yu ruins it all? It's all over! Our Northern Li kingdom, our unification of the world! My God!"
Seeing this, Emperor Tai'an silently hid in a corner, trying even harder to minimize his presence.
At this moment, a stark contrast emerged between what was on screen and what was off.
The people off-screen pointed at 'Xiao Ruojin' on the screen and hurled insults, expressing their anger intensely.
The 'Xiao Ruojin' in the picture is pointing at Ye Dingzhi and unleashing a torrent of abuse, driving him to the brink of madness.
After a long while, Emperor Xiaokang, panting heavily, pointed at 'Xiao Ruojin' on the screen with a trembling finger, his tone tinged with helplessness: "Forget it, we've been cursing him until our throats are dry, but he can't hear us. We might as well wait until he comes down and then we'll deal with him. Then none of you can take it from me, I'll go first."
Xiao Yi and Emperor Mingguan were also tired of cursing. They felt that Emperor Xiaokang's words made a lot of sense, so they returned to their chairs and sat down, panting heavily.
At that moment, Xiao Ruojin, who had just come down, had just reached the entrance of the hall and was about to enter to pay her respects to the ancestors when she happened to hear these words...
Xiao Ruojin silently retracted her outstretched foot, turned around, squatted outside the door, and began to eavesdrop.
He secretly rejoiced that he had been smart enough not to rush in.
Otherwise, what if the ancestors inside are in a bad mood? Wouldn't I get beaten up for no reason?
Thinking of this, Xiao Ruojin couldn't help but shudder and decided to check the situation outside before going in.
The people inside the hall looked at 'Xiao Ruojin' on the big screen with critical eyes.
When Xiao Yi saw Xiao Ruojin on the screen let Ye Dingzhi go, he couldn't help but let out a contemptuous sneer: "A woman's kindness will never lead to great things!"
When Emperor Xiaokang saw Xiao Ruojin on the screen staying up all night to make plans only to have them all go up in flames, he curled his lip in disdain: "Such childish play is utterly laughable!"
When Emperor Mingguan saw Xiao Ruojin on the screen asking her younger brother to help her seize the throne, he rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky, and he didn't even bother to give a single comment.
