Zhou Wu: "Young General, wouldn't you like to reconsider?" Such a beautiful woman is going to be given to a little girl, isn't that... a terrible waste?
The beauty also raised her face and looked at Ning Yirong with longing. Her parents had kept her hidden for so many years because they wanted her to help improve the family's social standing, not to marry an unknown nobody.
Ning Yirong said as he removed his armor, "What's there to consider? It's just a beautiful woman, isn't it? Go."
Zhou Wu: "Yes. Please, young lady."
The beauty tried to struggle one more time, and just as she was about to cry, Ning Yirong turned and left. The beauty then truly cried. "Young General!"
The young general turned a deaf ear.
The beauty cried even more pitifully.
Zhou Wu felt a pang of heartache. However, he could not disobey the young general's orders. "Please, young lady."
The general who sent the beauty to Ning Yirong went to claim credit with Ning Yirong's father, General Ning, after leaving Ning Yirong's place. Ning Yirong was the only son in the Ning family.
General Ning has two things on his mind right now. First, to help his son become emperor. Second, to have a grandson.
General Ning was delighted to hear that Ning Yirong had taken that beauty as his wife. "Old Wu, you really know me. I must treat you to a drink."
He had long wanted to arrange a woman for his son, but he was afraid that his son would not forget the woman from before, who had even jumped off a cliff for him.
The two had just finished one drink when Ning Yirong's attendant came over. "Master."
General Ning had assumed that Ning Yirong's attendant had come to ask him for a reward. Unexpectedly, the attendant told him that Ning Yirong had given the woman to Yun Xiaoliu.
General Ning looked at the wine cup in his hand, then at Ning Yirong's attendant, then back again. "Old Wu, isn't this wine too strong?" It was so strong that he got drunk after just one cup.
Old Wu also thought it was because the liquor was too strong. That woman was so beautiful, how could the young general bear to give her away? If he were ten years younger, even knowing that woman would bring him disaster, he would still keep her. "Yes, one cup and he's drunk."
"Mmm. Here, keep drinking."
"good."
Ning Yirong's attendant: "..." Master is really good at deceiving himself. "Master, you heard right, the young master gave that girl to Yun Xiaoliu."
bump!
General Ning slammed his wine glass down on the table. "Nonsense! How could the young general give that girl to Yun Xiaoliu? How old is Yun Xiaoliu? Besides, Yun Xiaoliu is a girl."
Old Wu: "Exactly."
Ning Yirong's attendant was also puzzled. "Master, I'm not talking nonsense. I don't know why the young general did this either, but I asked Zhou Wu. Zhou Wu said he confirmed with the young general that the young general did indeed ask him to deliver it to Yun Xiaoliu."
General Ning: "..." Isn't this ridiculous?
Old Wu: "..." What does the young general want to do?
"General, do you think the young general wants that young lady to help us bring the Yun family over?"
Even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman. No matter how strict the Yun family's upbringing was, they might not have been able to withstand the allure of a beautiful woman. Yun Xiaoliu's mother is a prime example.
General Ning knew that wasn't the case. He knew they had long since allied with the Yun family and General Niu. However, he couldn't find any other reason. "It must be, they came to drink."
Just now it was a celebratory feast, now it's a feast of sorrow.
Sigh! When will his son finally forget that woman from his past? Sigh!
"Young General, you are really..." really willing to do so. "Young General, you are really smart. If we can win over the Yun family, we will be even more powerful."
"Yes. Come on, let's drink."
"Okay, let's drink."
On the other side, Niu Mingjie played with Sisi for a few days, and after repeatedly telling his older brother not to worry about Sisi, he went back to work as Yun Yuxiang's assistant.
After deciding to give up, Gao Yingjie focused all his energy on his career.
Madam Wang, the eldest son of the Wang family, and Wang Miaolan stayed in Liaocheng for more than a month before returning home.
When Gao Yingjie took them back, he spoke with General Wang. Gao Yingjie said he didn't want to force Wang Miaolan and that he would always consider General Wang his father.
General Wang told Gao Yingjie that he would give Gao Yingjie two years. If Gao Yingjie regretted it within two years, he could come back and marry Miao'er at any time.
Gao Yingjie kowtowed three times to General Wang and then left.
Life returned to normal.
This area is practically General Niu and Sisi's territory now, so Sisi doesn't need to worry about fighting for the time being. Sisi now spends her free time strolling around in the fields.
After breakfast, Sisi took out her straw hat again.
Upon seeing this, Yun Yuqi immediately said, "Girl, are you going to the fields again?"
"Hmm. If anyone comes to buy grain from you, just say you don't have any." She had grain, but she had to save some for that scoundrel emperor. Although that emperor was a scoundrel, she didn't like war; she preferred peace. So, she had to help that emperor eliminate everyone else. Once they were gone, she could go wherever she wanted.
Yun Yuqi readily agreed. "Okay. Where are your uncle and the others?"
"They won't sell either. General Niu has already told them."
"oh."
Two months later, Sisi was watching people harvest crops in the fields when Wang Sihan arrived.
Wang Sihan's expression was strange. "Xiao Liu, are you very familiar with General Ning of the Ning family?"
Sisi glanced at Wang Sihan. Why bring up that damned emperor? It's ruining my mood. "We're not close."
"So how will he give you a gift?"
Sisi thought Ning Yirong had sent someone to give her money again. "He's trying to curry favor with me."
"Oh. You like beautiful women?"
"Of course I like her. Everyone loves beauty. You came all this way just to ask me if I like beautiful women?"
