Myriad Realms Summoning System
Chapter Summary
"System, start the random draw!" When Xiao Chen walked to the front of the Queen's Palace, he gave instructions to the system, then he breathed a sigh of relief and walked in. Xiao Chen did not bring any servants with him, and there was no servant in the Queen's Palace at this time. Shangguan Qingmeng still didn't turn around, but said with her back to Xiao Chen: "Wait a moment, I'll get it for you!" After saying that, without waiting for Xiao Chen to say anything else, he quickly left the room,...
"System, start the random draw!"
When Xiao Chen walked to the front of the Queen's Palace, he gave instructions to the system, then he breathed a sigh of relief and walked in.
Today is his wedding day, but due to various changes, he has not had the chance to meet Diao Chan until now.
This made him feel a little guilty.
Xiao Chen did not bring any servants with him, and there was no servant in the Queen's Palace at this time. When Xiao Chen walked in, Diao Chan had already changed out of her wedding attire and put on a light and elegant dress again.
She sat quietly in front of the mirror, staring blankly at herself in the mirror, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Diao Chan!"
Xiao Chen walked up behind her and called out softly. Diao Chan turned around and looked at Xiao Chen, a smile on her face, and said, "You're here!"
"Diao Chan, I'm sorry, tomorrow I might..."
"Are you leaving?"
Diao Chan interrupted Xiao Chen before he could finish his words, but her expression was very calm.
Looking at her unusually calm expression, Xiao Chen's heart ached slightly. How could he not know the pain hidden behind this calm and beautiful face?
Diao Chan is a woman who understands the big picture. Xiao Chen knows that she just wants to make herself look calmer so that Xiao Chen will no longer worry about her and can move forward with peace of mind.
Xiao Chen murmured softly, "I'm sorry. I wanted to give you happiness, but I left on the second day of our wedding. I didn't keep my promise. I'm sorry."
A tear slipped from the corner of Diao Chan's eye, but a smile remained on her charming face. She said, "Your Majesty, there's no need to apologize. I don't want to be an obstacle to your ascent to the top. I'm still waiting for Your Majesty to take me to the pinnacle of the continent and see all its scenery."
When Xiao Chen heard this, a famous line of poetry suddenly appeared in his mind: How can I have the best of both worlds, without disappointing the Tathagata and without disappointing you?
In order to reach the top of the continent and fulfill his promise to see all the scenery on the continent, Xiao Chen can only temporarily hide his love for Diao Chan in his heart.
Xiao Chenjiang looked down at that dreamy and beautiful face and said affectionately, "I will fulfill our promise. Wait for me to come back!"
In the Queen's Palace, the dim lights swayed in the breeze, and Xiao Chen just looked at Diao Chan quietly.
After a long while, Diao Chan finally said with a blushing face, "Your Majesty, today is your wedding day. If you stay in my palace all night, I don't know how Mei Die and the others will laugh at me. Your Majesty, you should go to their place!"
Although Diao Chan looks mature, she is almost like a little girl when it comes to matters between men and women.
In her opinion, she is now the empress of the Great Zhou Empire and cannot act arbitrarily.
If she took Xiao Chen over tonight, how would her sisters look at her? How would she lead the harem in the future? Therefore, she had to set a good example.
Since Diao Chan said so, Xiao Chen naturally couldn't force her.
He smiled helplessly and said to Diao Chan: "Forget it, I'll go out for a walk!"
Diao Chan winked at Xiao Chen mischievously, and even couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. Xiao Chen's deflated look was quite cute.
…
After leaving the Queen's Palace, Xiao Chen did not really go to the palace of Mei Die and others. He was about to leave the Imperial City tomorrow, and his mood was not very good.
"Where should we go?"
Xiao Chen was strolling around the palace bored. It had been a long time since he had strolled alone under the moonlight. Since coming to this other world, he was either followed by countless servants or distracted by all kinds of things. It was really rare for him to have time to relax like this.
"It seems like I haven't had a drink in a long time!"
Feeling the cool night breeze blowing on his face and looking at the full moon in the night sky, Xiao Chen suddenly became interested. He really hadn't touched alcohol for a long time.
Xiao Chen traveled through time because of drinking, so he had a slight fear of alcohol and had always deliberately avoided it, but sometimes alcohol was really a good thing.
“There should be a good bar there!”
Xiao Chen muttered to himself, then his body soared into the air and headed straight for Lingyun Tower.
On the third floor of Lingyun Tower, Shangguan Qingmeng was the only one in the spacious hall. There was no candlelight in the hall, only moonlight pouring in from the window.
In the darkness, Shangguan Qingmeng sat on the ground in a daze, his back against a pillar, a wine jug in his hand, tears still welling up in the corners of his eyes.
"Why, Miss Shangguan is in a bad mood?"
Just as Shangguan Qingmeng was about to continue drinking, Xiao Chen's low voice came from the windowsill.
Shangguan Qingmeng, who was originally in a daze, suddenly looked towards the windowsill with an expression of disbelief on her pretty face.
Xiao Chen was leaning on the huge windowsill, looking at Shangguan Qingmeng curiously.
"How did you..."
Seeing Xiao Chen, Shangguan Qingmeng asked subconsciously, then she seemed to suddenly realize something, her expression was startled, and she quickly turned her head away.
I must be very ugly now!
Xiao Chen didn't know what Shangguan Qingmeng was thinking. He just jumped down from the windowsill, then looked at Shangguan Qingmeng's back and asked, "Is there any wine? I'm here to find some. It seems that there is no good wine in the palace!"
In fact, he himself didn't know whether there was good wine in the palace, he just made up a lie.
Shangguan Qingmeng still didn't turn around, but said with her back to Xiao Chen: "Wait a moment, I'll get it for you!"
After saying that, without waiting for Xiao Chen to say anything else, he quickly left the room, leaving Xiao Chen confused.
Didn't I just catch you drunk? Why are you acting so weird? Is it true that goddesses can't be seen drinking?
Shangguan Qingmeng was out for quite a long time. About an incense stick of time passed before she returned to the hall with two small jars of fine wine.
"Your wine!"
While Xiao Chen was staring at the beautiful scenery outside the window, Shangguan Qingmeng handed a small jar of fine wine to Xiao Chen.
