Chapter 365: No Gentleman Under the Pomegranate Skirt (3)



Soldiers: “…” Oh, it turned out that it was not done. The general is quite patient, like a green-haired turtle.

Jiang Yunqing is not a beast, but a beast in human clothing, which is even more terrifying than a beast.

He did not have time to rest and hurried to clear the way with his soldiers.

He wants to take Yue'er home.

No matter how fast you hurry, the journey is long and arduous.

By the time they arrived in the capital, it was already March.

Zhu Xianyue took off her heavy clothes and put on a light silk skirt. Her slender waist and plump chest showed off her beautiful figure, and she was as beautiful as a young leaf.

When she walked on the road, she was a beautiful scenery, and men and women all stopped to look at her.

Even though Zhu Xianyue was wearing a veil, her demeanor and figure were so captivating that people couldn't take their eyes off her.

Jiang Yunqing suddenly became a little panicked, afraid that Zhu Xianyue would be snatched away by someone.

He moved closer to Zhu Xianyue, but did not dare to go any further, for fear of offending the beauty.

After entering the palace to meet the emperor, Jiang Yunqing was named the Great General of the Nation.

The emperor said that this journey was difficult and everyone thought that Jiang Yunqing was going to die, especially Jiang Yunqing's old mother and wife. He asked him to go back and comfort his wife and family.

Jiang Yunqing's words about marrying Zhu Xianyue were stuck in his throat.

Wife? He has never been married, so where did he get a wife?

Only after the emperor explained it to him did he understand.

But Yue'er saved his life and is his sweetheart, so how could he bear to let Yue'er be his concubine?

So I didn't bring up the matter.

He just told His Majesty that Yue'er was a good woman who saved his life and would temporarily live in the general's mansion.

On the way back home, Zhu Xianyue noticed that Jiang Yunqing was in a bad mood, but she didn't ask any questions. She just accompanied him quietly.

Her understanding made Jiang Yunqing feel even more ashamed and he dared not face her.

As they were about to reach the General's Mansion, Jiang Yunqing finally had to say, "Yue'er... My mother had arranged a marriage for me. She was the daughter of the Grand Tutor, a noble and distinguished woman. But before I could marry, I went to the battlefield, and news of my death spread."

"So many years have passed... I thought she'd already married, but when she learned of my death, she'd rather marry a rooster than marry into the Jiang family... Yue'er, Gui Di has deep feelings for the Jiang family and helped my mother support the shaky Jiang Mansion. I can't let her down..."

He really didn't expect that Mu Guidi would be willing to marry him and become the youngest widow in the capital.

Who would have thought that Jiang Yunqing was not dead at all, but was saved by Zhu Xianyue?

"So, Brother Yunqing can't marry me, right?"

"...Yue'er, in my heart, only you can be my wife. After returning home, I will divorce Mu Guicui. I will only compensate her and promise her many benefits."

"In the Xia Dynasty, divorce is a big deal. If Sister Gui Di divorces you, everyone in the capital can drown her with a spit, and she will also bring shame to the reputation of the women in the clan. Yue'er guesses that Sister Gui Di would rather die than leave you." Zhu Xianyue sighed. Even a peasant girl like her understood these principles, let alone Jiang Yunqing?

Jiang Yunqing also knew it, but how could one have the best of both worlds?

The atmosphere between the two became tense.

Jiang Yunqing couldn't bear to see Zhu Xianyue worrying about these things, so he said, "Yue'er, just take a good rest, and leave the rest to me."

Zhu Xianyue nodded. She had seen Jiang Yunqing's care for her and was not a heartless person. Although everything had been difficult, she was willing to trust Jiang Yunqing just once.
