Chapter 1457: Chapter 522: The Diligent Matchmaker (Part 3)
The Moon Elder grew more anxious as he spoke, lowering his head and kneeling, shouting in a trembling voice:
“Great God, please don’t kill me! I will definitely work honestly from now on! Everyone says I’m your confidant, I, I didn’t know how high the heavens are!”
“Please don’t kill me!”
“Rise,” Li Ping’an took the tea handed over by a nearby child, sipped it slightly, “If I truly wanted to punish you, I wouldn’t have come to your temple of marriage ties.”
The Moon Elder felt as if he had received a great pardon.
He shivered a few times, stood up trembling, and stood silently to the side, not daring to speak loudly.
Li Ping’an said: “You do your work diligently, and the occasional small mistakes due to so-called personal feelings are not a big deal, so I won’t make things difficult for you, such situations won’t occur for the time being.”
“Yes, yes,” the Moon Elder said in a low voice, “Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty.”
Li Ping’an pondered for a moment: “The Moon Elder knows that I have some family members, today I want to check on their marriage connections, is that possible?”
“Yes, this humble god will bring it up for you right away.”
The Moon Elder waved his large sleeves and pulled out a white cloud, revealing a golden clay figure within.
The Moon Elder explained: “Heavenly beings are all golden, this is yours, and those related to you.”
Li Ping’an looked closely, four red threads stretched from his clay figure, of which two were already connected to other clay figures, these figures were visible as the Queen Mother and Ningning Mu, the threads were seamless, shining with golden light.
As for the remaining two threads, the one on the left seemed unbroken yet disconnected, leaving only a few strands of connection with another red thread.
This was the one pointing towards Lady Ba.
The right one was some distance away from another clay figure’s red thread, and its growth was extremely slow, and what it pointed to…
Li Ping’an instinctively rubbed his nose.
The Moon Elder helpfully explained: “This is the red thread of your first master, Yun Bing Xianzi.”
“That’s not important,” Li Ping’an said indifferently, “Let me see my father’s.”
The Moon Elder hurriedly agreed: “Yes… Your Majesty, Yun Bing Xianzi came before, over three hundred years ago.”
“What did my master come to do?”
“She looked at her own red thread and left without doing anything.”
“I see, I understand.”
Strangely unsettled, Li Ping’an said: “Quickly.”
“Yes, Your Majesty, your father’s is here.”
The Moon Elder replaced the white cloud, revealing Li Dazhi’s clay figure within, both red threads were protected by golden light, corresponding to Xiaoyue and Wen Rou, and like the Queen Mother and Ningning, both aunts each had only one red thread.
——The clay figures clearly showed their appearance and attire, skirts for women, clothes for men.
“I also have a foster sister,” Li Ping’an unveiled his intentions, “She is a Demon Infant by origin, I wonder if there’s a clay figure for her here.”
“There should be, I remember seeing it before.”
The Moon Elder switched to a grey cloud, within which appeared Yao Ji’s clay figure, with more than a dozen connecting to other skirt-clad clay figures.
These strings were no longer red.
They were green!
The Moon Elder quietly reported: “Your Majesty, Princess Yao Ji’s marriage is somewhat, somewhat strange, perhaps influenced by the Demon Infant, this matter I reported to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother said to hide such a small matter and not publicize it, lest it affects the reputation of the Heavenly Court.”
Li Ping’an:…
Indeed, from the Queen Mother’s perspective, this was not a big deal.
With so many fairies at the Jade Pool, there should be quite a few with such tendencies, the Queen Mother’s way of handling it was to turn a blind eye.
But Yao Ji was different.
Yao Ji, she…
Would the Investiture of the Gods Cataclysm not require Yang Jian? The Heavenly Court would lose a fierce general, and for Yang Jian, Li Ping’an also had other plans, having been awaiting good news from Yao Ji for a long time.
To choose to respect or to intervene.
That is the question.
