"Grandfather, don't you know me? I've never liked Mengyao."
It was an imperial decree bestowing a marriage upon him, and he couldn't refuse.
If he hadn't had that accident, perhaps the two of them really could have been together.
But if he had met Han Luoxue, he wouldn't have settled for less.
"you……"
“Grandfather, she’s a good person, I’ve made up my mind about her! By the way, what about Han Laoba? Didn’t he tell you?”
"He didn't come?"
The old general asked suspiciously, "He's here?"
"We should have arrived earlier, but we probably encountered something on the way! By the way, Grandfather, my leg is much better now. Xue'er said that she will definitely be able to fully recover in the future."
"What?"
The old general still couldn't quite believe it.
He looked Han Yuchen up and down again, and Han Yuchen simply stood up and took a few steps.
He hadn't noticed when they first arrived, but now he saw that it was indeed much lighter. He was slightly limping, but you couldn't even tell unless you looked closely.
"Can it really be restored?"
"But the imperial physicians and military doctors all said at the time that it was impossible to recover."
"It's because Xue'er's medical skills are amazing."
Han Yuchen smiled happily; the old general hadn't seen Han Yuchen so happy in many years.
It's obvious that he really likes that girl.
But given his status, even if he didn't intend to be that glamorous prince, he couldn't just give up and marry a village girl.
Although the old general led troops into battle, he was not a mindless brute.
He is more meticulous than most people.
Looking at Han Yuchen's expression, he knew that nothing he said would make a difference.
However, now that Han Yuchen is here, he has plenty of time to change his mind.
Even if Han Yuchen couldn't fight for that position, he couldn't live an ordinary life forever.
"Grandpa?"
When Han Yuchen changed his form of address, the old general felt a pang of sadness. Usually, when Han Yuchen said this, it meant he had softened his stance.
“She’s really good. Grandpa, you know I’ve met a lot of girls before, including many from well-to-do families, but I’ve never been attracted to any of them.”
Han Yuchen's eyes were a little unfocused, as if he was thinking about something wonderful.
“In that village, everyone was afraid of me because of the scars on my face, but she wasn’t.”
She also told me that my legs could actually be treated.
“Grandpa, Xue’er’s father also injured his leg and was paralyzed in bed for more than half a year, but she helped him get treatment. Her younger sister was bitten by a poisonous snake and became lame, but she also cured her.”
"really?"
In fact, the old general was not a pedantic person.
Everyone thought that the most skilled doctor in the world was in the palace, the imperial physician.
In fact, there are many amazing people in the general public.
"Yes."
"But you know how badly I was injured back then, so I need time."
"So... you know your leg can be healed, and you'll definitely have to go back to your old ways. Are you still willing to marry a village girl with no connections?"
"Zhen'er, don't forget that you are not alone."
“She can heal your leg; she is your great benefactor. There are many ways to repay her kindness; you don’t necessarily have to marry her.”
"Grandpa."
Han Yuchen suddenly interrupted the old general:
"I can still distinguish between repaying a debt of gratitude and being moved by someone."
“I really like her, I love her, it’s not about repaying a debt of gratitude.”
Seeing his grandson's resolute expression again, the old general felt a pang of bitterness.
"Oh well."
"By the way, Grandpa, what were you talking about just now?"
When Han Yuchen arrived, he noticed that everyone's expressions were off, and he had some guesses in his mind.
"Ugh, what a bunch of ignorant fools."
Speaking of what just happened, the old general was so angry he wanted to punch someone.
Han Yuchen was none other than himself, and he didn't hide anything from him:
"Everyone is hungry, and these guys actually want to kill warhorses to eat."
Hiss. Even though he had already considered that the situation here was not optimistic, he still did not expect to have to kill the warhorse.
Indeed, people have started resorting to cannibalism, and the daily consumption here is an astonishing figure.
However, even if we really did kill the warhorses, ...
How many more days can we hold on?
Fortunately, he came.
"Sigh, I can still keep them in check for now, but I don't know how long I can keep them in check."
"But they don't realize that eating warhorses is only a temporary solution. What will we do if they attack us again after we lose our warhorses?"
In these years of famine, everyone is having a hard time, but...
The opposing court is really supportive.
Although they weren't full, they could still drink a bowl of thin porridge every day.
For them, more than a month ago, they were only eating a bowl of thin porridge a day.
For the past week, I haven't even been able to make a bowl of thin porridge.
"this……"
"Zhen'er, what do you think is wrong with the Emperor? Does he no longer want things here?"
If the supplies don't arrive soon, it won't be long—ten days—before the enemy even attacks, they'll all be wiped out!
"Grandpa, the Emperor is now..."
Han Yuchen didn't know what to say about that person.
The current court is controlled by the crown prince, and naturally, he wants to eliminate the maternal grandfather's faction.
Because the Crown Prince knew that the old general could never truly be sincere for him, no matter what.
Their status speaks for itself.
"Fine, marry whoever you like."
The old general sighed:
"Grandpa doesn't know how many more days he has left to live. Why don't you and that girl get married soon? What am I thinking? I'll be content as long as I can see you get married and live a good life."
