Chapter 300 Return safely
On this day, when Liu Laosan was awake, he was listening to Su Sheng talking about the tragic past of Shen Yi and Su Tai.
Chen Yi tried to stop him several times but was scolded back by Su Sheng, so he could only shut up in dismay.
Liu Laosan looked unhappy, and when he was resting, he said to Shen Yi, “Back then, I was penniless and had nothing but my life, so I couldn’t repay your father for saving my life. Although I became rich later, I was far away from my hometown and couldn’t reach it.
Originally, I was thinking of returning home after completing the mission this time, and then repaying the life-saving grace. I didn’t expect that I almost died in Longxia Country, and it was the benefactor’s son who saved me. The kindness I owe to your family will never be repaid in this lifetime!
Just wait, I will definitely do you justice!"
He had no ability before, but now. When he returns, even the governor of Lizhou will have to respect him when he sees him. He will definitely protect Shen Yi!
Chen Yi shook his head repeatedly, "Uncle, I am living a good life with my wife now. Although Xiong Kai married the girl from the Mo family, he is not living a good life. I am very glad that the Mo family regretted the marriage, otherwise I would not be able to marry the woman of my dreams. You don't have to complain for me."
"Oh? Su Chunlin's daughter is very good?" Liu Laosan was a little surprised. In his memory, Su Chunlin's situation was not much better than his. That guy was impulsive, so how could he raise a good daughter?
Speaking of Su Tai, Shen Yi seemed to want to open up and his eyes softened a lot.
Liu Laosan listened quietly. When he learned that Su Tai had given birth to two sons and two daughters for Shen Yi, and helped Shen Yi to manage the Shen family in an orderly manner, he praised: "She is a good daughter-in-law! It is said that a blessed person is not as good as an unblessed family. You are all blessed. God will bring you together no matter what."
"That's right! Xiong Kai and Mo Chunxiang are just unlucky. Not only do they have a miserable life together, but they also blame the world and the world. They are not content with their lot!" Su Sheng cursed angrily.
When Liu Laosan learned that Su Sheng was Su Tai's relative, he could understand his dissatisfaction.
After the group revealed their secrets to each other, they immediately became close. By the time they got out of the mountain, Chen Yi and the others were already calling Liu Laosan "uncle".
Liu Laosan enjoyed it very much and instinctively treated them as his own descendants.
In the military camp.
Cen Yingfan, Zhu Yixuan and a group of generals and lieutenants sat in the marshal's tent to discuss post-war arrangements.
Zhu Yixuan, who had been promoted to the position of Grand Commander, was in high spirits and stood straight.
Cen Yingfan looked at him with satisfaction, and said respectfully to Marshal Xiao Minghan: "Marshal, Longxia has sent a letter of surrender. Can we return to the court now?"
Xiao Minghan fell into deep thought.
Pan Wanli was anxious, "Marshal, many soldiers are still missing."
Cen Yingfan interrupted him, "Deputy General Pan, war always involves sacrifice. They died for their country, and the court will naturally release pensions. Besides, we have sent people into the mountains to search for several days. We have found everything we can find. Those who can't be found have no chance of survival. You should be aware of this."
"But" Pan Wanli wanted to say something.
Xiao Minghan interrupted their argument and said, "Alright, give them two more days. If there is still no news, let the soldiers withdraw!"
Cen Yingfan was somewhat dissatisfied. Pan Wanli breathed a sigh of relief, but he did not look happy at all. Instead, his face showed more worry.
Zhu Yixuan said slowly in Cen Yingfan's ear: "General, now that things have come to this, it doesn't matter if we wait a few more days."
"I don't want to delay your marriage with Mingzhu!" Cen Yingfan's attitude towards Zhu Yixuan was obviously much kinder. He rolled his eyes and suddenly said, "Marshal, since this is the case, we don't want to waste time. My daughter and Yixuan are going to get married. I plan to get it done in the next two days. If there is news from the court, we won't be too hasty."
Xiao Minghan nodded slightly and said thoughtfully: "This is your family affair, you can handle it as you see fit. I will go over to have a drink at the wedding."
"Thank you, Marshal!" Cen Yingfan stood up and bowed, then left with Zhu Yixuan with a happy face.
Seeing Pan Wanli's grim expression, Xiao Minghan also sighed in his heart, "Wanli, I know you are worried about Shen Yi and the others, but war is cruel and there will always be sacrifices. I promised you that if Shen Yi came back alive, I would promote him to the Grand Commander. It's a pity that he doesn't have this luck. You should be more open-minded."
Pan Wanli clenched his fists tightly and slowly closed his eyes, feeling infinite regret in his heart. If he had not let Shen Yi charge into battle, would Shen Yi be safe?
But if Shen Yi hadn't fought bravely, how could he have gotten a promotion?
Shen Yi, Shen Yi! You must come back alive!
The next day, Cen Yingfan announced in the military camp that Zhu Yixuan and Cen Mingzhu would be getting married that night and invited the generals in the army to come to the city to attend the wedding banquet.
Pan Wanli didn't want to go, but was forced to go by Xiao Minghan.
As he looked at the high-spirited Zhu Yixuan, he felt more and more depressed and could only drink silently.
The crowd made noise until dawn.
Pan Wanli woke up from a hangover and found himself still in the city, so he hurriedly rode back to the camp.
Today is the deadline. If there is no news, Shen Yi will never come back!
He couldn't sit still in the military camp, so he simply rode out on horseback to take a look.
Cen Yingfan received the news and sneered, "When did Lao Pan become so emotional? How ridiculous!"
"That's right! He's just a small governor who came from a peasant family. Is he worthy of Lieutenant General Pan's attention? I really don't know whether to say that the peasant is lucky or that Lieutenant General Pan doesn't understand the situation!" echoed the close attendant.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the tent, followed by Pan Wanli's excited roar, "You're back! I knew you would be okay! Brat, you really worried me to death!"
Cen Yingfan exchanged glances with his entourage and immediately rushed out of the tent.
He saw Shen Yi walking towards him alive, no, it should be Shen Yi's group! They were all alive and unharmed!
No, that's not right, there's one more!
His brows furrowed deeply, and he pretended to be happy and stepped forward to ask: "Chen Yi, where have you been these days? We thought you had an accident in the mountains!"
"Yeah! You seem to be fine and not injured. Why did you take so long to come back?" Cen Yingfan's close follower asked loudly.
Everyone looked at him, but he remained calm.
Cen Yingfan waited leisurely for Shen Yi to explain.
Liu Laosan, who had been ignored by everyone, finally spoke slowly, "They were delayed because of me. Are you satisfied with this explanation? Cen Yingfan!"
"How dare you! How dare you address the general by his name!" The attendant was furious.
Cen Yingfan didn't expect the person on the stretcher to dare to call him by his name. He narrowed his eyes unkindly and stared at him, "Who are you?"
Liu Laosan laughed, "I'm just an insignificant person."
As he said this, he said to Shen Yi, “Wait for me to go see Xiao Minghan.”
