Things progressed much faster than Qi Yan had imagined. For example, He Hui was not willing to give up Puyang Zheng. Instead, after accidentally meeting the emperor, the emperor once again ordered He Hui to marry Puyang Zheng. Qi Yan was
helpless.
"Then Miss He really depends on you and will not marry anyone else." He said lightly, which earned Puyang Zheng a worried look.
"This is not what I want. That woman is really annoying!"
"Have you ever had any romantic relationship with Miss He? Or did you have any agreement with her in childhood?"
"How could it be? I followed my master to the mountains to learn martial arts since I was a child. When I was fifteen, I went down the mountain to lead troops to fight. I never lived in the capital for long. How can there be an agreement?"
Puyang Zheng took a sip of tea, thought about it, sighed again, picked up the teapot, and filled the empty cup.
"That's strange." Qi Yan looked at him indifferently, with the seductive curve at the corner of his mouth in the past, "It seems that you have no choice but to marry her."
"How can this be possible!"
"Why not? She is not married and you are not married, isn't it perfect for a talented man and a beautiful woman?"
"You--!" Puyang Zheng glared at him, but couldn't say the next sentence. After hesitating for a long time, he turned his sleeves and left in annoyance.
[The male protagonist's favorability towards Qi Yan +5, current favorability: 75]
Watching his leaving back, Qi Yan's usual smile slowly fell.
After a few days of peace of mind, the decree of arranged marriage came down again. It seems that the emperor is not going to do the thing of taking advantage of the situation. He Hui is also quite capable. I don't know what kind of deal can make the emperor move the golden pen again and write the imperial decree.
This time, Puyang Zheng can't escape.
After that, Qi Yan was slightly startled when he didn't see Puyang Zheng for five consecutive days. He hurriedly asked the housekeeper about Puyang Zheng, but was told that the war in the northwest was urgent. The emperor was concerned about the country's territory and ordered Puyang Zheng to go to the northwest immediately and return to Beijing to get married after pacifying the bandits.
So, three days ago at dawn, Puyang Zheng hurriedly went to fight in the northwest, and now he is probably already on the battlefield.
Feeling annoyed, Qi Yan said that this stupid general didn't even tell him, maybe through this war, the arranged marriage will have a turnaround!
He stood up and wanted to go back to Huanlou to check the news of the northwest war. When he raised his head, a green figure came into his sight.
It turned out to be He Hui.
Now, she has retracted her previous days' deliberate flattery and naivety. Her face is full of resentment and the pride of having won a battle. She stares at Qi Yan without blinking and asks viciously, "Who are you?"
Qi Yan is stunned, then smiles and says, "The owner of Hehuan Building, Qi Yan."
"You are talking nonsense! In the last life, Qi Yan liked me!" He Hui suddenly shouted crazily, "Who are you!?"
In the last life?
Qi Yan's eyebrows jumped. It seems that things are not as simple as he thought.
"Miss He, you are out of your mind, right? I have never seen you, why should I care about you?"
"You don't understand, how could you understand?" He Hui stared at Qi Yan, as if she wanted to tear him apart, "You evildoer, you took Qi Yan's body, and seduced Brother Zheng to do something that goes against common sense! Humph! I'm afraid your true identity is that vixen that everyone avoids!"
"Miss He, please be careful with your words." Qi Yan's face turned cold, his eyes like ice swords, shooting straight at He Hui, "You broke into the general's mansion privately and didn't report it. If this matter gets out, Miss He's reputation will be ruined, right?"
"I have been the mistress of this place for a long time, but I want to remind you to leave as soon as possible! You vixen of unknown origin! If you are still here when Brother Zheng comes back, I will hire a magician to turn you into ashes!"
After saying that, He Hui smiled contemptuously and turned away arrogantly.
Turned into ashes? Ha, it's simply wishful thinking.
However...
Qi Yan's confused mind calmed down a little, and he recalled He Hui's words, and suddenly thought of another possibility.
That is, He Hui in this world did not travel through time, but was reborn!
The previous life she mentioned was exactly in line with the original plot that Qi Yan knew: the heroine traveled through time, and her confident light attracted Puyang Zheng, and made "Qi Yan" obsessed with her.
Now, she may have died once, but returning to the beginning of the story with her memories, it also explains why He Hui only recognized Puyang Zheng, and there is no reason to give up after chasing him to this point.
In this way, as long as Puyang Zheng is alive in this world, He Hui will not give up!
[Attention host! Both the male and female protagonists cannot die, otherwise the mission will fail!]
"Of course I know."
The female protagonist cannot die, and the male protagonist cannot die, and some He Hui with memories of the past life will always cling to Puyang Zheng, no matter how Puyang Zheng treats her.
Qi Yan lowered his eyes for a long time, then stood up and left the general's mansion.
Hehuan Tower.
Qi Yan rarely wore a simple and powerful outfit, a white robe with silver thread edges, simple and handsome. He took out two bottles of medicine powder from the small wooden box beside the couch and put them into the square cloth spread out on the bed, along with a few sets of clothes.
"Are you leaving?"
A voice suddenly sounded behind him, and Qi Yan knew who it was without turning around.
"Well, I'm going to the northwest."
"There's a war going on there, what can you do there?"
"Of course I have something to do, otherwise who would go to that hellish place."
"Hey!"
Qi Yan responded and turned around, looking at the man who was still dressed in black, "Wu Zha, this Hehuan Tower is given to you."
"What?"
"I said." Qi Yan paused for word, "Hehuan Tower is yours."
"Really?" Wu Zha took a few steps forward and stared at Qi Yan, "I wanted to cooperate with you to run this Hehuan Tower, but you were unwilling. You treated it as a treasure, and now you are willing to give it to me for free?"
Qi Yan chuckled and said, "Hehuan Tower is not an important thing to me. I didn't want to cooperate with you at the beginning just because I annoyed you. How do you know that I wouldn't cooperate with him if it was someone else?"
These words choked Wu Zha so much that he drank two cups of tea before he calmed down.
"Honestly, are you really going to follow that damn general?"
"What do you mean by following Puyang Zheng? You really don't know how to talk." Qi Yan tied the square cloth, shook it in his hand, and put it aside with satisfaction. "I will leave tomorrow, and the Hehuan Tower will be handed over to you from now on."
"You can leave whenever you want. As an acquaintance, I just remind you not to get close to the battlefield. Swords have no eyes. I'm not just saying that."
"Of course I know that." "
...Are you serious?" Wu Sha paused, and finally waved his hand, "Stop it..."
After a sleepless night, the starry sky was dark, and when the sky was white, Qi Yan's room had already lost its temperature.
...
Fifteen days later, the northwest front was in danger, and the emperor sent 30,000 troops to support it.
A month later, the bandits launched a protracted war, and broke two border cities of this dynasty by making a feint to the east and attacking the west. The emperor was furious. Two
months later, two deputy generals of General Puyang fought against the enemy and eventually died on the battlefield. The ashes were burned and brought back to the capital at full speed to reunite with his family. General Puyang was seriously injured. The emperor realized the urgency of the situation and once again mobilized troops to support the northwest.
Five months later, the end of the year was approaching. The court won a great victory over the bandits and recaptured the city. The people cheered and welcomed tens of thousands of soldiers back to the court to celebrate the country.
The emperor rewarded all the soldiers, but one person was missing.
The bandits were cunning, and when they were desperate, the poison arrows pierced the willows from a hundred steps away. In the chaos, General Puyang was shot.
When he returned to the camp, it was too late.
He did not wait to return to the court, nor did he wait for rewards. He was buried by his brotherly soldiers on the battlefield where he had fought all his life.
Puyang Zheng, died.
…
In the golden years, the Hehuan Building still has a constant source of customers this year, and the profit is many times more than that of its peers.
"Oh, where did the master go again?"
"I'm looking for the master too!"
"The master is elusive every day, leaving a bunch of rotten stalls, alas!"
Several managers in the Hehuan Building started looking for people everywhere again. With the noisy and chaotic background, the popularity of the Hehuan Building is always evident.
The person they are looking for at this time is in a small farmhouse, drinking tea and eating oily fruits, feeling very comfortable.
After eating the fruit, he reached out to take another one, but heard a snap and was hit on the hand.
"Eat, eat, eat. Don't you care about Hehuan Tower anymore?"
"Hey, swear to God, I've been taking care of Hehuan Tower for you for so long, now I can't even eat your fruit?"
"No, go back to Hehuan Tower!"
"If you're worried, just go back by yourself. Anyway, those who are in charge will recognize you."
"He can't go back." Suddenly, a deep and magnetic voice interrupted, revealing a faint smile.
"Why can't he go back?"
The man walked forward, put the standing person in his arms, lowered his eyes, and chuckled, "He has to accompany me, this is an agreement."
The person in his arms also looked at him, not blushing or shy, but rather raised his eyebrows frivolously, with the same seductive curve on his lips. The red lips opened slightly, and she said word by word: "We have made so many appointments, do you want to try it tonight?"
"...Of course."
...
The man sitting on the chair stood up suddenly, looked at the two people hugging each other with disgust, and said bitterly: "Qi Yan, Puyang Zheng! In broad daylight, can you two be more careful?"
"No." Qi Yan glanced over lightly, "If you don't want to see, go back to your Hehuan Building."
Before Wuzha could reply, Puyang Zheng immediately followed her husband and said: "Yan is right. Also, my name is Yang Zheng now, and Yan's name is Liu Yan."
Wuzha stared at the two people unbearably, without saying a word, and finally left angrily.
In the small house, the two people hugged each other and smiled, and the tenderness from the heart could not dissipate for a long time.
…
The separation of life and death is shocking, and the wind blows through the willows and brings them back to life.
[The male protagonist’s favorability towards Qi Yan increases by 25, and the current favorability is 100]
