Jiang Hai came into the room and saw her looking thoughtful, so he asked,
"What's wrong, my lady?"
"Or I'd rather not go to the literary meeting. You can just take Shuang'er with you."
"Why is this happening? Didn't we agree on this?"
"I don't know these fancy things, I'm afraid I'll embarrass you."
"I thought it was some kind of problem. Don't worry, we'll just go and take a look. We're not competing with anyone. What's important is eating and drinking. It's okay, it's okay."
Jiang Hai didn't think much of it. It turned out that his wife was afraid of making a fool of herself. It was no big deal. With a plagiarist like him around, how could she make a fool of herself?
At worst, he can just recite 300 Tang poems. Anyway, he has endless resources in his golden finger brain.
Yuchi Ziling still didn't have much confidence. Although she had never participated in these things before, she knew her own limitations.
If it was a martial arts competition, she would definitely be happy to do it.
"Really?"
"Nothing will go wrong with me around. Look how good a husband I am. I took you to see a man, and you still don't thank me."
"I don't care."
"That's right. You already have a good man. It's normal that you don't want him."
"Young Master Jiang is incredibly shameless."
"Miss Yuchi, you are too kind."
The couple started to talk nonsense.
"Young Master Jiang wants to see the beauty himself, right?"
"How could that be? The beauty is not as pretty as you."
"I think you're kidding me."
"I don't."
"I don't believe it."
"You can believe it, look into my eyes, I'm sincere." Jiang Hai said seriously.
Yuchi Ziling held her chin lazily and smiled faintly at him.
Jiang Hai suddenly felt a surge of emotion. This look was really charming. Jiang Hai said,
"My lady, it's getting late, let's go to bed."
Yuchi Ziling turned her head and looked at the sky.
"What do you want to do now? It's broad daylight outside and we haven't even had dinner yet."
"I'm not hungry. Let's go. I'm tired."
"Get out of the way, don't you want your waist anymore?"
Yuchi Ziling raised her eyebrows. She knew that someone almost couldn't get up in the morning.
Jiang Hai thought about it and agreed. Although he was still young and energetic, he still couldn't indulge himself too much. It was not comfortable to hold his waist.
Jiang Hai had no choice but to recall the operations in the game, lower the sensitivity a bit, sit alone at the table, and practice controlling the gun repeatedly.
The two chatted for a while, and then it was time for dinner.
In the evening, Yuchi Ziling dragged him to the training ground and tortured him again. The torture was increased a little, and as a result, Jiang Hai almost had to have his wife carry him back.
This time, I really would have fallen down if I hadn't held on to anything.
After taking a bath, Jiang Hai fell asleep directly.
No words were spoken that night.
…
The next day, early morning.
A fast horse galloped from the east of Rong'an City. The messenger waved a small flag with a happy look on his face.
When the officers, soldiers and civilians at the city gate heard the sound of horse hooves, they all made way.
This was an urgent military report from the border, sent directly to the palace, so no one dared to stop it.
"Victory news, victory news, great victory at Donggu Pass! The foreigners have fled!"
Xiaoqi galloped on his horse and started shouting "great victory" as he entered the city.
This victory report was sent out after Yuchi Zhong arrived at Donggu Pass and Zhou Yi saw that the foreign troops had completely retreated.
The war had subsided, so it wasn't urgent enough to send a letter via carrier pigeon. Zhou Yi wrote a detailed report before sending it to the capital.
At this time, the people in the capital were all delighted when they heard about the great victory at the border.
When the army set out before, the people who saw them off had clouds of worry on their faces, but now the clouds have cleared and the sun is shining.
Many people began to discuss it.
"General Yuchi is indeed formidable. He won a great victory as soon as he arrived at the border."
"Yes, yes. I believe that for the credit of this great victory, you can be promoted to a general and given a title of nobility."
"You said that the son-in-law of this general's mansion is quite blessed. He just married the eldest daughter, and the next moment his father-in-law is about to get promoted and become rich."
"Who says he isn't? It's said that the boy is just from Southern Xinjiang, a playboy from a county magistrate's family. He has a good life."
"Hey, why did I hear that he's not just a playboy, but a talented scholar?"
"He's a talented scholar, but haven't you heard that the playboy is extravagant and lustful?
He also tried to curry favor with the Third Prince, selling off his property in the capital and bringing back ten beauties from the music troupe.
You don't know that the beauty he got in exchange for her is still going back with the wedding procession."
"Is this true? How could the general's daughter be interested in such a person? It's really strange."
"If you don't believe me, go ask around. I heard the eldest daughter returned home recently and is staying in the general's mansion with that playboy."
"Tsk tsk, your circle is so chaotic, we ordinary people can't understand it."
"Who says it's not true? Even the Crown Prince Xuan has nine concubines, so this matter is somewhat related."
"Hey, now that you mention it, it really makes the connection. Wasn't Prince Xuan also planning to marry the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion?"
"Right, right, right. Perhaps this playboy from Southern Xinjiang is vying with the Crown Prince of Xuan, and he's willing to spend all his family wealth to get one more concubine than the Crown Prince."
"Oh, yes, what you said makes sense. It must be like this."
"Tsk tsk, I dare not think about it, it's too messy."
A piece of good news triggers a lot of imagination, and the imagination of the spectators is always so reliable.
If Jiang Hai heard the rumors made up by this group of onlookers, he would have to give them a thumbs up in admiration.
Of course, there is also Yang Zhe who was caught in the crossfire for no reason. They will definitely be given a big beating.
At this time, in the court of Darong, the old emperor Yang Yiwen was sitting on the dragon throne, listening to the reports from the ministers below the hall.
The sound of the small flag announcing victory reached the hall, and the rhythm in the court stopped. Yang Yiwen raised his hand to signal a pause.
The minister who made the report returned to his original position.
Xiaoqi entered the hall, knelt on one knee, and reported the great victories at Dongguguan and Beiguguan.
Eunuch Lai stepped forward and presented the battle report to the emperor.
The old emperor took the battle report and began to read it with a relaxed look on his face, but then he frowned again as he read on.
Thunder from the sky, what the hell? He was a little bit unbelievable that such a thing could happen.
Zhou Yi is also a talented person. He wrote the Qin army's air raid in a mysterious way.
After reading the battle report, Yang Yiwen asked Eunuch Lai to circulate it, and several important officials also took turns reading it.
Yang Yiwen, sitting on the dragon throne, was a little conflicted again.
I originally thought that if Yuchi Zhong returned victorious, it would take at least a few months.
With the arrival of this good news, it seems that we will be able to return to the capital in just ten days.
He felt that Yuchi Zhong had become a hot potato for him.
This matter had to be resolved quickly, but he thought about the divine thunder again.
This means that Yuchi Zhong's contribution is not that great, so he can just be transferred to a different position and given a consolation prize.
Thinking of this, Yang Yiwen felt that it was okay.
After the ministers finished reading it, a heated discussion began in the court about the placement of Yuchi Zhong.
Yang Hongye's people had been waiting for this moment.
The Vice Minister of Personnel, Su Ningshi, stepped out and made a report.
As an official of the Ministry of Personnel, he had already thought of a place for Yuchi Zhong to go.
Of course, it was discussed in Yang Hongye’s small meeting.
Although some of Yang Hongye's staff were slacking off, there were also some who were actually working.
