What if Wukong Loves Me Too Much
Chapter 46
The King was very happy with Xuanzang's arrival.
He received him with a smile on his face and quickly changed the official language for him.
He also invited him warmly, "My daughter's wedding is in three days. Please stay, Holy Monk."
Three days was not a long time.
Xuanzang agreed.
The King was very interested in the local customs of the Tang Dynasty.
He dragged Xuanzang out of the court and asked him endless questions in the side chamber.
His disciples could not stay.
They found an excuse to sneak out.
Looking at their departing figures, the King sighed, "Holy Monk's style is outstanding, and his disciples are all talents.
I am envious. "
Xuanzang was stunned and said modestly, "They are just more obedient."
The King said, "It is the greatest blessing for children to be obedient."
Xuanzang suddenly felt that he had raised three sons.
The burden on his shoulders was extremely heavy.
He thought for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty, are you worried about your children?"
"Holy Monk, you may not know, but I have two sons and three daughters. My eldest son is eccentric and refuses to be disciplined. My youngest son is too cowardly and cannot take on big responsibilities.
My two daughters have already married. Only my youngest daughter is gentle, obedient, considerate, and sensible.
I like her the most. "As expected, the King followed his words and said sadly.
"My health is getting worse and worse.
My daughter has also reached the age of marriage, so I want to find a good husband for her so that she can be carefree in the future. "
"But no matter how I chose, there was no one who was worthy of my daughter. Until a few days ago, when I went hunting, I met a young man who had extraordinary skills and was also very handsome.
This Monarch has observed him for a period of time and discovered that he is a very good person. Even Eldest Brother listens to him without any faults. He is a perfect match for my daughter. That young man is also fond of my daughter. He cares for her and listens to her every word. He even took the initiative to propose marriage to this Monarch. "
Speaking of this, the King sighed. "However, now that the marriage has been set, my daughter is still cold and indifferent. She doesn't refuse or agree. She doesn't say anything when I ask her what's wrong.
Holy Monk, what do you think she's unhappy about?
It's such a good marriage, but they have to make things difficult and make everyone unhappy. "
When she asked about Xuanzang's shortcomings, how could Xuanzang say anything? Thinking back to Ba Jie's teachings, he squeezed out two sentences: "Children and grandchildren have their own fortune. The Princess has her own ideas, it's better to follow her wishes."
The King said, "The problem is, she didn't reject this marriage at all. I really don't know what to do."
He had clearly dismissed the servants around him, but from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a figure pacing back and forth outside the door. He angrily shouted, "Who's there?!"
A palace maid came in and knelt in front of him. "Your Majesty, Her Highness the Princess heard that a senior monk from the Tang Dynasty was coming to visit, so she asked me to come and observe. She wants to ask the senior monk from the Tang Dynasty to give her some pointers."
The king relaxed his brows. "That's great."
He then turned to Xuanzang and said, "I'm afraid that my daughter has an inexplicable knot in her heart. I hope that the Holy Monk can enlighten her."

Ba Jie and Wujing wanted to peek at who the yellow-robed monster was, but Wukong didn't want to pay them any attention. He wandered alone in the palace.
However, no matter if it was on the roof or jumping from a tree, there was always Xiao Hua following behind him. He was really tired of this behavior, so he hit her with his staff and said, "If you want revenge, follow my junior brother. Don't follow me."
Qian Mian was covered in dust, but her eyes were shining. "My friend told me that you're the Great Sage Equal to Heaven. You're the only one who can beat him."
Wukong was still walking. When he was fast, she was also fast. When he was slow, she was also slow. "I don't want to fight."
"Then I'll keep following you."
Wukong suddenly stopped and turned around. He pointed the Jingu Staff at her, putting a distance between them. "Do you see this?
If you keep following me, it'll hit you on the head. "
The Jingu Staff was full of vigor. When he swung it, Qian Mian instinctively closed her eyes and opened them again. She wasn't afraid. "Go ahead and hit me. If you kill me, your master will definitely blame you for killing the innocent. He won't want you anymore."
Wukong glared at her, but he forced it back and continued walking.
Qian Mian saw that it was effective and happily followed him openly. She kept asking, "I heard that you wreaked havoc in the heavenly palace 500 years ago. Not a single deity in the heavens could beat you. Is that true?"
"Yes."
"Heavens!
That's amazing! "Qian Mian jogged two steps and tried to walk shoulder to shoulder with him." Then wouldn't it be easy for you to defeat the yellow-robed monster? "
"Yes."
"Then why do you listen to a monk?"
"He's my master."
"Why is he your master?"
"Why do you care?"
"I'm just curious."
Wukong walked on the wall as if it were flat ground. The walls were covered with creepers and very few people came here. Qian Mian paused and squatted down to listen for something. A creeper stretched out its branches toward her and its leaves covered her ears.
Before long, she caught up with him, panting. However, she couldn't catch up to Wukong no matter how hard she tried. She shouted excitedly from behind him, "Monkey King!
Monkey King! "
Wukong didn't stop, so she kept shouting. The people in the palace looked at them in shock and caused a commotion.
Wukong stopped in a deserted place and turned his head slightly, indicating that she should hurry up. The sunlight coated him with a layer of dazzling gold.
Qian Mian was momentarily distracted and almost forgot to breathe. When he impatiently raised his foot, she hurriedly asked, "If, if your master told you to fight the yellow-robed monster, would you go?"
"My master is merciful and won't let me take the initiative to stir up trouble."
"That's not necessarily true."
Qian Mian adjusted her breathing and said confidently, "My friend just told me that he met the princess privately in the imperial garden. The princess doesn't like yellow-robed …"
Before she could finish the word "robe", she saw Wukong standing in front of her in an instant. The Ruyi Jingu Bang was right in the middle of her forehead. The cold metal felt so real that it could penetrate her head with just a little more force.
Wukong stared at her and said word by word, "My master is the Holy Monk of the Tang Dynasty. He's the emperor's younger brother and the reincarnation of Buddha's disciple. He's a good man who cultivated for ten lifetimes and is highly respected."
There seemed to be two flames dancing in his golden eyes, but they were even colder than the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
"If I hear you slander him again, I'll kill the innocent."
Qian Mian stared at him in a daze. All she could see was his sharp eyes and golden body.
When he disappeared, she slumped to the ground and patted herself to calm herself down.
So fierce.
She had never felt so close to death before. It turned out that she was so close to death. Murderous intent had truly been aroused.
He's so cool!
She stood up and patted the dust off. She asked the plants around her and then chased after him.

Wukong came to the imperial garden in the blink of an eye. He sat in the pavilion with his arms crossed and eavesdropped. He looked at Xuanzang coldly.
He really came to meet the princess privately. What's the use of protecting such an unstable monk? I'll just kill him with a stick and end it all.
Qian Mian found him and sat beside him. She didn't seem to be afraid of him at all. Instead, she became more excited. "See, I'm not talking nonsense."
Wukong knocked her down with his stick, but she stubbornly climbed back up.
Princess Baihuashian received him in a pavilion in the imperial garden. She was dressed in a light spring gown and waved the silk fan in her hand slowly. She was indeed as beautiful as her name suggested, making the flowers around her lose their luster. However, her brows were slightly furrowed and she seemed to have a lot on her mind. "Holy monk, please listen to my story."
Xuanzang said thoughtfully, "Princess, please go ahead."
"A long time ago, in the Hall of Fragrance in the Celestial Court, there was a maid named Xueming. She met Wood Wolf of Kui, one of the 28 constellations, at the Feast of Peaches and gradually fell in love with him.
After a long time, they both knew that a private meeting was not a good idea. However, their identities were too different and it wouldn't end well. They coveted the freedom of the mortal world and agreed to descend to the mortal world to be an ordinary couple.
However, when the time came, Wood Wolf of Kui gave up and asked the maid to descend to the mortal world to be a human while he stayed in heaven to be an immortal. "
She looked indifferent as if she was just telling an imperfect legend. "The maid realized that she had been betrayed and realized the hypocrisy of the relationship. She regretted that she had taken it for real. She begged the judge to not erase her memory with the Way of the Beast. She hoped that she would always remember this shame and never meet a fickle lover again."
Xuanzang listened quietly. He saw that she was pretending to be calm, but there were tears in her eyes.
"The maid was so lucky to be born as a princess. Her parents doted on her and the country was peaceful. If she could find a devoted husband, she would be willing to spend the Way of the Beast."
She lowered her eyelids and stared at her soft hands on her knees. "Who knew that something unexpected would happen. Wood Wolf of Kui might have remembered their old relationship and secretly descended to the mortal world to find the maid. He coaxed her father and earned a prince consort. The maid wanted to reject him, but she was afraid that it would implicate her family. However, marrying him was a nightmare and there was no way out."
The princess stood up and bowed to him solemnly. "I hope that Holy Monk can save me."
Xuanzang helped her up before she bowed. "Princess, don't panic. Since Wood Wolf of Kui still remembers their old relationship, he won't make things difficult for you. Why don't you have a good talk with him?"
The princess held his arm and shook her head with tears in her eyes. "Wood Wolf of Kui is fickle and selfish. He never cares about other people's feelings. If he wants something, he will do anything. He wants to be both an immortal and a husband and wife with me, so he won't ask about my feelings.
If he knows that I remember rejecting him in my previous life, I'm afraid that the Baoxiang Kingdom will be turned upside down by him!
I can only blame myself for falling in love back then. I couldn't see through people and mistook his good for good and bad for good. "
Qian Mian was shocked. "She, she, she can't be talking about her and Yellow-robed Monster, right?!"
Wukong glanced at her. "What else?"
Xuanzang sighed. "Such an ill-fated relationship!
I will try my best to persuade him to turn back as soon as possible. "
"The Holy Monk can't persuade him."
The princess was a little anxious. "I know that the Great Sage Equaling Heaven has already followed the Holy Monk to get the scriptures. There's no need to trouble him. I only ask that the Great Sage Equaling Heaven report to the Heavenly Court about Wood Wolf of Kui's private descent to the mortal world. There will be heavenly soldiers to catch him and I will also avoid this disaster."
Xuanzang thought for a moment. It was just a small matter, so it shouldn't be too difficult. He said, "I will discuss it with Wukong."
The princess was very grateful. Just as she was about to bow again, her personal servant hurriedly reported, "Your Highness, the prospective son-in-law is here!" She looked at the two of them, wanting to say something but hesitating.
The sound of steady footsteps was getting closer and closer. The princess hurriedly let go of Xuanzang and bit her lower lip. "How can there be such a coincidence? The Holy Monk, I'm afraid that he will get the news and make things difficult for you and me. If he finds out …"
