I am aging gracefully in the world of famous books

In the early morning of the next day, Esfar returned a limp seaweed to Pei Xiang.

"Amy, give it a new name. It has already deeply remembered that 'Cui Cui' is not its own name."

Pei Xiang smiled, she bent down and touched the soft leaves of the small seaweed, and said softly:

"Then let's call you 'Manman' first. When your consciousness is more complete, or you have a gender in the future, you can choose a nice name yourself."

Xiaohaicao wrapped Pei Xiang's fingers with leaves, and posted them slowly and carefully. During the period, she seemed to pay special attention to the big devil Asfar who was not far away.It found that the other party didn't get angry again because it was close to Pei Xiang, so it quietly added some strength to wrap Pei Xiang's fingers tighter.

"Manman," Esfar's cold and indifferent voice suddenly sounded, "Remember, this is your name, and you have nothing to do with Cui Cui."

The moment Asfar made a sound, Manman left Pei Xiang's side with a "swoosh", and then all the leaves stood upright and gathered together, as if imitating the regular standing posture of standing at attention and looking forward .

Lila Hart, who was strolling over, happened to see this scene, and teased with a smile:

"Oh, isn't this the ferocious seaweed with its teeth and claws from yesterday? Why are you so honest today? However, your standing posture is not standard. Look, there is still a small leaf floating behind you."

The little seaweed vine can't understand all of Lilahart's words, but it can sense Lilahart's emotions when he speaks.Therefore, Xiao Haicao quickly came to a conclusion, that is, this annoying ghost who pulled it out of the sea sand and rock cracks is still not pleasing today.

As a result, the vine's leaves hardened all of a sudden, and the edges of the leaves suddenly became jagged with black poison, and then the whole grass spun crazily and hit Lilahart's nose.

"Hey, you stupid grass... don't try to hurt my straight and perfect bridge of nose..."

Leilahart and Manman "playfully" ran away, while Pei Xiang and Esfar continued their morning walk.The fiancee chatted and laughed for a while, then decided to leave the Mermaid King's Palace today and open the Sea Palace as soon as possible.

During breakfast, Pei Xiang told King Hubert and the Queen Mother about his intention to leave.Both of them agreed with His Majesty Asfar's plan to return to Haihuang Palace as soon as possible to summon his subordinates, but there was a small disagreement about Pei Xiang's fate.

The old grandmother had some thoughts about Pei Xiang going to Haihuang Palace with Asfar.

According to her point of view, Pei Xiang, as a fiancée and future queen of the sea, should stay in the court of the mermaid country at this time, while making various preparations for the upcoming wedding, while dealing with the noble ladies of all ethnic groups of the sea clan , Whether it is to accept their congratulations and compliments or to make alliances in order to secure a position as the queen, it is very necessary.

As for the matter of staying in the Sea Palace, I am not too anxious. After all, it is too mysterious and majestic, and it has never been a place where the Sea Clan can easily visit.If Pei Xiang lives in at this time, she might be "trapped", which is not conducive to her expanding her social scope, winning supporters and expanding her influence.

"Your Majesty, in the days before the wedding, Amy has to learn to be a gentle and considerate wife and a virtuous noble queen. She needs to assist your career and take care of your family..."

"No, Amy doesn't need to do those things deliberately."

Before Pei Xiang politely rejected the old grandmother's suggestion and arrangement, Esfar interrupted the Queen Mother's explanation.

"My wife is my partner who stands shoulder to shoulder with me."

The old queen mother didn't fully understand Esfar's original intention for a while, she shook her head and persuaded softly:

"Your Majesty, of course there will be a place for Amy by your side. Undoubtedly, when she becomes your wife, she is the most qualified to share your glory in the entire sea area. But she also has to shoulder her own responsibilities, no I have betrayed your trust and love.”

Esfar frowned slightly, and retorted in a deep voice:

"Ms. Polina, you didn't catch me. I think Amy's most important responsibility is that she grow up the way she likes. And, from what I know of my fiancée, she doesn't like or Care about the interests you value. She is a strong person, and like me, she has been looking for a way to become stronger, there is no doubt about it.

"Of course she is the most qualified to share my glory, but at the same time, Amy also has her own glory, and I am also happy to accept her gifts and help. Our marriage should not be based on Amy's sacrifice and dedication Yes, she is not a jewel to adorn the crown, but the crown itself. If it doesn't make us both better, then this union is meaningless."

The breakfast hall fell silent, and the Queen Mother Polina looked at the black-haired monarch in surprise, not expecting him to have such an idea at all.

After a while, she murmured:

"She assists you so that you don't have to worry about your future. You protect her and prevent her from disturbing the wind and rain. Isn't this also a kind of mutual achievement? This will also make you two better."

Pei Xiang glanced at the displeased Asfar, and motioned for her to continue explaining.

"Grandmother, that kind of husband and wife relationship is really good, and there are many successful examples, but it is not suitable for me and Esfar. Perhaps for other couples, the husband and wife cooperation model you advocate is a kind of mutual achievement, But it doesn't fit my personality.

"Grandmother, of course I would like to help my husband, but not in a socially savvy way, or by gaining power and influence by bringing in supporters and allies. I will never let these things occupy me Esfar doesn’t need a lot of time and energy. Because what we deeply admire and are moved by is each other, not those external identities.”

Esfar nodded slightly, expressing his point of view clearly again:

"If it is said that something must be achieved, Amy must first achieve herself, and then her wife, the queen of the sea."

Facing Esfar's determined attitude and the little granddaughter's hidden and sharp eyes, the Queen Mother didn't say anything more.She sighed, suppressing the slight worry in her heart.

The Queen Mother felt that her little granddaughter had chosen a very difficult path.If the future husband is an ordinary strong man, it is very good to choose a husband and wife relationship that walks side by side. After all, the little princess of the Mermaid Kingdom is very good.However, when the marriage contract is replaced by the Lord of the Sea Clan and a demigod, this road to the strong will appear to be somewhat difficult and useless.Some sea people even secretly ridiculed her as overreaching, thinking that the little mermaid princess Amy is not a qualified sea queen.

Pei Xiang was naturally aware of the old queen mother's worries, but she did not reassure or comfort her, because no matter how she promises to explain at this moment, it will not be as effective as speaking with facts in the future.

After breakfast, Pei Xiang, Asfar, Lailahat, and a seaweed called vines left the Mermaid Palace together. They used space magic to transfer to the sea area where the Sea Palace is located.

As soon as she arrived at the destination, Manman, who had returned to her hometown, happily ran to the place where she grew up and stationed before.The rhythm of its leaves shaking is very cheerful, as if introducing the place where it grew up to Pei Xiang and Asfar, and as if showing off its might with Lilahardt.

Esfar held the reappeared black scepter, and whispered a spell to an open space not far away.With the thunderous rumbling sound, clusters of dazzling lights gradually emerged from the open space pointed by the scepter.After that, the silhouette of a building emerged from the light.

After about five or six minutes, the grand and majestic Haihuang Palace finally fully revealed its overall appearance.Starting from that open space, the building complex gradually extended towards the distance, and then disappeared in a large area of ​​deep darkness.

"Amy, I'll take you home."

Putting away the scepter, Esfar took Pei Xiang's hand and walked into the Hai Palace, and began to introduce his expensive real estate to his beloved fiancee.

Lailahart, who was left behind, looked at the Sea Palace, which had been away for 1000 years, and sighed in his heart. At the same time, he did not forget to grab the leaves of the vines to prevent it from following and listening.

"Come back, little silly grass, now is not the time to get close."

Manman struggled, not wanting to be with the annoying ghost.

Lilahart threatened: "If you don't listen to the persuasion, don't be a little pitiful when His Majesty Asfar punishes you later, and don't blame me for not stopping you."

After hearing the words "Esfar" and "punishment", the simple-minded little sea grass trembled uncontrollably, and then immediately became obedient.

Seeing this, Lilahart raised his eyebrows and smiled, thinking he had found a way to deal with the little seaweed.So, he also carried the little seaweed into the Sea Palace.

However, Lila Hart's route was different from that of the couple who always showed affection. He turned directly to the empty meeting hall.Because he needs to clean up the mutated Heijue seaweed near the meeting hall before those old friends come to the Sea Palace to meet His Majesty. He must not let those old guys see the tragic picture of him squatting on the ground and pulling weeds.

Pei Xiang, who was in the other direction, listened to Esfar's introduction and description all the way, and had a preliminary understanding of the overall layout of the Haihuang Palace.Afterwards, she and Asfar floated through the space magic circle set between the water waves in the mid-air, and after several short-distance teleportations, they appeared in a place full of strange deep-sea magic plants.

"Behind the purple-red coral bushes is the pharmacy," Asfar accompanied Pei Xiang to observe the nearby magic plants, and introduced, "The magic plants here all have certain medicinal value, and some of them are varieties I improved and cultivated. , I can't find it outside."

"Well, I found it." Pei Xiang carefully observed a magical plant with round leaves and fishbone-shaped vines, and did not rush forward to touch it. "You are really nice here, I like this place."

The corners of Esfar's mouth were slightly curved, and his tone implied expectation:

"The medical skills you have mastered before are not the same as the relevant knowledge system on the Magic Continent. There are many places between the two that can complement each other. Amy, we have been traveling outside before, and there is no place suitable for quiet research. Now that the Sea Palace is restarted, the experimental materials and equipment are sufficient, and we can discuss issues in related fields together."

Pei Xiang nodded happily, full of interest.

She looked at the strangely shaped and colorful magical medicinal materials around with loving eyes, and felt that this place was really cute.I can't help but envy Esfar's free life thousands of years ago. It is said that the lord of the Sea Clan at that time was a housekeeper except for fighting. He must have spent a lot of time on pharmacy research and cultivation of magic plants.

Esfar likes the bright eyes of his fiancée when he focuses on certain things, and often unconsciously makes some actions to attract Pei Xiang's attention because he doesn't get attention, and it's the same at this moment.

Seeing that Pei Xiang's eyes were bright and bright, he was happy and took Pei Xiang's hand without much thought, and printed a simple and powerful magic pattern symbol on the pulp of her index finger.

"What is this?" Pei Xiang looked at the golden symbol on his finger and asked curiously.

"You and I are jointly in charge of this authority." Esfar replied quietly.

Pei Xiang's heart moved, and he mobilized his magic power to activate the magic lines on his fingertips.I saw a flash of golden light, and the coral bush not far away suddenly parted, revealing a winding path.At the end of the path, there is a beautiful building with a huge silver rainbow-rimmed scallop on the roof.

"Is there your pharmacy in there?"

"Well, I gave Alice a conch key to enter and exit the pharmacy before, and the pharmacy is inside."

Hearing this, Pei Xiang's eyes became slightly complicated, and she murmured softly:

"Thousands of years ago, you left the Sea Palace from there, and then sealed yourself in the abyss, and have been devouring each other day and night with the devilish energy of the abyss."

As she spoke, she lowered her head to stare at the golden magic pattern on her fingertips, and touched it lightly again.The magic pattern flickered, gradually dimmed, and finally disappeared.But as long as Pei Xiang calls, the golden magic pattern will reappear.

"You just gave me the authority here?"

Esfar nodded slightly, his brows were gentle and firm.

Pei Xiang pursed her lips lightly, and an uncontrollable smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

If Esfar, thousands of years ago, was willing to hand over the conch key to open the pharmacy to his fellow clansmen, it was because he was extremely confident in his own strength, and he didn't know that there was a demigod teaming up with the human race to plan a conspiracy secretly.So, today, 1000 years later, when it is very clear that there are several powerful enemies who have been watching, Esfar is willing to share authority with Pei Xiang, which is to pay a very pure trust.

——Not only trust Pei Xiang's character and friendship, but also trust Pei Xiang's ability and means.

"Esfar, aren't you worried?" Pei Xiang's question sounded a bit abrupt.

But Esfar could understand Pei Xiang's doubts, he thought for a while, and said unhurriedly:

"I didn't think too much when I gave you the authority just now, and I didn't think too much after I gave it to you. So, I'm doing what I want, and that's the most important thing."

"I thought you'd be more cautious."

"Being cautious doesn't mean being extra defensive. Amy, I pursue great power and a long life in order to free myself from restraint as much as possible. But if you restrain yourself against your will everywhere in order to survive, then you will be with me. Contrary to the original intention.”

Pei Xiang and Esfar have similar views.But for some reason, hearing him say this now, she felt empty for no reason, and she couldn't help but hold Asfar's hand tightly, trying to absorb the warmth from his body.

"What's the matter, Amy?" Asfar asked with concern.

"It's nothing, just a little inexplicable trance suddenly." Pei Xiang raised his head and traced Asfar's handsome eyebrows with his eyes, and couldn't find out where the strange thoughts at this moment came from.

At this time, Lilahardt used magic to send a message, reporting that Esfar's former subordinates and their successors had arrived outside the Sea Palace, and asked Esfar how to arrange it.

"Let them go to the conference hall, Amy and I will go there in a while." Esfar replied.

This episode completely dispelled Pei Xiang's vague thoughts. In the next period of time, she still had many things to be busy with.

The subordinates gathered together in the past, and Esfar accepted the loyalty oath of all ethnic groups again, and then introduced Pei Xiang's identity in public, and announced that the wedding will be held in the near future.

Next, when Asfar was rectifying the internal affairs of the Hai Clan, Pei Xiang was also thoroughly familiar with the Hai Palace, and plunged into Asfar's library.

When she appeared in front of everyone again, it was time for the wedding.

The wedding ceremony of the Lord of the Sea Clan and the newly promoted demigod Esfar was naturally extremely grand.

All ethnic groups on the mainland sent representatives to the sea area to watch the ceremony, and they presented many rare treasures. They praised the beauty and loveliness of the bride, but the center of the topic always focused on Esfar.Because Haihou is really too young, she is not in any ranking of the strong, and she has no glorious deeds worth spreading.They respect Pei Xiang, but all their respect is based on her status as a sea queen, and has nothing to do with her.

For this, Pei Xiang was mentally prepared and accepted it frankly.

Of course, the opinions of onlookers will not affect her mood of enjoying her sweet newlywed life.In particular, her husband is handsome and considerate, has a superb figure, learns everything quickly and can draw inferences from one example, and is cold and reserved on the surface, but is hot and annoying. Sometimes he will be shy when teasing him quietly. How can she have extra energy to care about some unimportant things? minutiae.
