The lie was exposed and everyone was stunned for a moment.
Cheng Xianjun was stunned for a moment and then quickly changed his attitude.
"that……"
"General, let's be clear. We brothers don't have any other ideas. We just heard from somewhere that you and Marshal Shi are together, so we came to see what's going on... ahem..."
After these words were spoken, the people behind him all smiled and nodded frequently.
But Chu Yan was completely furious when he learned about the situation, "Who said that?"
"This... is what everyone in the military camp says." Cheng Xianjun scratched his head and said so frankly.
Chu Yan: “…”
Well, that’s not so bad. I haven’t even crawled into bed yet, and the scandal has already spread all over the world.
Considering the issue of face, he finally scolded with a cold face:
"Get out! Get as far away as you can!"
"What's the good and the bad? This general has come to discuss the deployment of troops to Qi with Marshal Shi! It's very serious!"
Cheng Xianjun and his men were suspicious and repeated, "What about the military deployment against Qi?"
"Yeah, that's natural."
Cheng Xianjun was the first to express his disbelief: "But if this is a war against Qi, why did General He only call on you, General Chu, and not his other subordinates?"
"You guys?" Chu Yan looked him up and down, then said disdainfully, "It's no use coming here."
Cheng Xianjun: "..."
"Even so, why choose such a dark and windy night?" Just when he didn't know how to respond, Chen Yi spoke up.
"What dark and windy night?"
Chu Yan was so angry that he jumped up and pointed to the sky. "Evening, how about evening?"
Everyone looked up in the direction of his finger and saw a lonely moon hanging in the sky.
The bright moonlight shone on the distant green walls, making the originally quiet mansion even more quiet.
Chu Yan also felt that his excuse was really untenable. After seeing the moon, he finally couldn't bear it anymore. With a sullen face, he pushed several people back.
"Alright, alright, no more words, hurry back and don't discuss this general's affairs anymore!"
Cheng Xianjun and his men were naturally reluctant, since their general was so serious, they didn't want to disturb him any further.
As for what happened in the military camp, are they true or false?
Why don't we just wait for them to wait outside and find out when General Chu will leave the Marshal's Mansion?
If General Chu stays until early tomorrow morning, then this matter is a sure thing and there is no need to say more.
After sending away a few people, Chu Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He hurriedly quickened his pace and slipped into the general's mansion.
Outside the mansion, when the group following Cheng Xianjun saw Xu Liang on the street, everyone on both sides was dumbfounded.
The people on both sides looked at each other, wanting to speak but stopping, wanting to speak again.
Finally, Xu Liangchang suppressed his curiosity and made a gesture of silence to Cheng Xianjun and others.
Cheng Xianjun nodded, and the few of them dispersed throughout the streets in tacit understanding.
The Marshal's Mansion, Chu Yan had just walked in not far away. When he was hesitantly looking at the living room in front of him, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
"You're sneaking around like that. Are you going to be a thief?"
Chu Yan hurriedly raised his head upon hearing the voice, and this time he met Shi Qingxue's very displeased gaze.
Only then did he realize that Shi Qingxue had changed her clothes.
Whenever they met in the past, Shi Qingxue would always be wearing armor or heroic military uniform, but this time it was different. Shi Qingxue had already changed into a horse-faced skirt.
The upper body is a slightly loose black dress that does not reveal any skin, while the hem of the horse-faced skirt is mainly red and brown.
From top to bottom, the beauty of women's graceful figure is fully displayed.
But even so, such clothes could not completely conceal Shi Qingxue's innate heroic demeanor.
Compared with her previous attire, she looks more like a chivalrous female warrior than a marshal in this kind of women's clothing.
Chu Yan, who was originally frightened, was stunned for a moment.
It’s rare to see Shi Qingxue dressed like this. She is really attractive and especially suits his aesthetic taste.
Seeing his expression, Shi Qingxue naturally knew that Chu Yan was attracted by her outfit.
As the saying goes, women dress up to please themselves, and a confident smile appeared on her cheeks.
"How is it? I'm dressed well today, right?"
"Well...it's indeed...quite beautiful..." After coming back to his senses, Chu Yan slightly narrowed his gaze and nodded.
Shi Qingxue's smile grew brighter. She stood in front of Chu Yan, spinning around and fiddling with it for a long time, until Chu Yan was stunned again. Then she pointed ahead:
"Don't just stand there, come inside and talk."
Chu Yan nodded, and the two of them entered the general's mansion together.
For some reason, the Marshal's Mansion was particularly quiet today, as if there were only the two of them in the entire mansion.
But on second thought, the Marshal's Mansion in Beiyan City was only vacated temporarily after all, and was only used as Shi Qingxue's residence during this period of rest and recuperation. It made sense that there were not many servants in the mansion.
"I said... Marshal Shi..."
Chu Yan followed Shi Qingxue all the way to the bedroom. Although he was prepared, he still couldn't hold back.
"Are you sure you're ready? Actually... I think it's still too simple. At least... there should be a sense of ceremony, right?"
He originally wanted to say that it was too hasty, but when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he changed his words and used the ceremony as an excuse.
"I do want to, but there's simply no time for marriage right now. The war in Northern Qi is undecided, and they're about to send troops at any moment. If we wait until we send troops, there will be no chance. If this drags on, it could take a year."
Shi Qingxue's reasons were very sufficient and plain, and he did not hide anything.
“Ah, this…?”
Although Chu Yan was very reluctant to believe it, he subconsciously said this outrageous statement with a twitch of his mouth:
"...Could it be that Marshal Shi can't stand this mere year of loneliness?"
After saying this, Shi Qingxue did not respond in time.
Just when Chu Yan thought she was angry about this, Shi Qingxue turned around and looked at him:
After a moment of silence, he said:
"I'm worried...if I keep going on like this for a while, I'm afraid you'll start looking down on me for my age."
