Her beautiful, obedient eyes looked at him, and her gentle voice seemed to carry a hint of happiness as she said, "You're finally back."
The girl wore a straw hat, and the cold wind blew her clothes. Seeing how thinly dressed the girl was, Mu Qiluan felt a little sorry for her. So he didn't even have time to report back. He just wanted to get the girl away from the freezing wind as soon as possible.
On horseback, she gently embraced him, a strange sense of comfort welling up within her. An unprecedented feeling of security washed over her the moment the girl touched him, drawing her closer to him.
…
As evening fell, Minister Yun paced back and forth outside his house. His daughter hadn't returned since the general had taken her away. He even wondered if his precious daughter had proposed breaking off the engagement, and the general, in a fit of anger, had killed her.
But he felt it was impossible; even if the general was arrogant, he couldn't possibly go this far. Yet, he couldn't help feeling uneasy.
Just then, Minister Yun saw the general's carriage appear.
Then a tall, handsome man dressed in fine clothes came down carrying his daughter.
Upon seeing such an unfamiliar man, Minister Yun was momentarily stunned, wondering, "Who is such a handsome man? And why was he brought here by the General's Mansion carriage?"
Finally, noticing the jade pendant on the man's waist, it suddenly dawned on me that this handsome man was the legendary, ferocious-looking general, resembling a demon?
Just as Minister Yun was about to speak, the man made a shushing gesture.
At this moment, Minister Yun also noticed that his daughter was sleeping peacefully in the other person's arms.
Minister Yun stood obediently behind the other person, without saying a word. Even though he was the elder, he couldn't help but want to bow his head when standing next to the other person.
…
Mu Qiluan carefully carried the person back to the room before leaving, and then went to the front hall to talk with Minister Yun.
"The betrothal gifts will be sent tomorrow. I wonder if my father-in-law has any objections?" He wanted to marry his beloved as soon as possible, if it weren't for her reputation.
Mu Qiluan really wanted to keep her in the General's Mansion without any hesitation and never be separated from her.
But he couldn't do that. Even if he didn't care about the gossip, he couldn't let it attack the person he loved.
Minister Yun spoke slowly, showing no imposing manner in front of the other party: "I...of course I have no problem, but...Wange...did Wange agree?"
His own daughter was still thinking of breaking off the engagement with him, but now that she has seen his face clearly, he is so handsome. Apart from being a bit too intimidating, his behavior is also quite good, and he seems to be a polite person.
Perhaps her daughter wouldn't be so resistant. Wan Ge didn't know how terrifying Mu Qiluan was now. A man who ignored the emperor and abandoned a group of royals, and took his daughter back to the general's mansion, must have his reasons for being fearless. The powerful warriors behind him were his confidence.
The soldiers of today no longer obey the orders of the Tiger Tally. Even if Mu Qiluan returns the Tiger Tally to the emperor, without his tacit approval, the Tiger Tally is nothing more than a cold, lifeless object.
Mu Qiluan glanced at the other party indifferently, his eyes narrowing slightly: "So, Father-in-law, you think Wan Ge will disagree?"
