Chapter 127 The Blessings of the Perfect Match

Lin Hong was not so busy anymore, so he couldn't help thinking about Wan Guchuan all the time, which made his heart ache.

I don't know why this month, the grieving ghost is particularly restrained, is it looking at the time when the new year is approaching, giving people a piece of leisure?But Cheng Jinjiu and Yu Tianyi also went in once or twice during this period.

Cheng Jinjiu guessed that it might be because Brother Wan has been killing enemies on the battlefield recently.And Lin Hong's birth date was tied to him again, and he didn't even have a ghost to find Lin Hong.

Lin Hong felt that his statement made sense, but the more he thought about it, the more worried he became.He fought Nanman one after another, and the battle was won, but was Wan Guchuan injured? It would be hypocritical to think too much, and it would be nice to come back alive, but in this battle, every battle is won, and every battle is alive. One battle, who can tell the next battle.

As the Chinese New Year approaches, there are many temple fairs and exhibitions in the south of the Yangtze River. All kinds of rare gadgets compete for beauty, and the skills of entertainers are also varied.Colorful clothes come and go on the street, laughter is overflowing, and it is very lively.

Lin Hong wanted to go to relax, but despite the enthusiastic applause from the people around him, his stroll was always boring, and he still couldn't understand the thoughts of Jian Jia.

Now he can only go around to inquire about the situation in the south and collect news related to the war.

He went to look at the notice, and there was only good news on it, and the rest were arrest warrants. The portrait of the criminal was vicious, which gave Lin Hong a headache.

He went to the teahouses and restaurants to listen to other people's conversations, and whenever the situation of the Nanman war was mentioned, he would listen with his ears up.

"The south is fighting fiercely!"

"heard."

"What kind of drastic method?"

"A lot of people died! The corpses were piled up on the snow one by one. Ouch, the intestines and stomachs were all on the ground, and the broken limbs were thrown around. The snow was all dyed red."

"So scary!"

"Isn't it! Those corpses were collected and spread out at the gate of the city, covering them all over the place! Oh, I registered their names one by one, and wrote several large papers. I will report the funeral to my family when I go back!"

"Hey!"

"Hey……"

"Bitter..."

Sigh again and again.

Lin Hong was listening at the next table, clutching the teacup tightly.

"People who live in the south say that all they hear at night is the sound of shouts and clashes of weapons, which will last until midnight."

"Can you sleep then?"

"Why sleep? I'm so worried, maybe the Nanman will break through the city wall and come in to slaughter the city! Many people fled to the north, and the refugees were distributed to various cities. The local government is very busy!"

"Soldiers are suffering too!"

"So can you win?"

"Isn't this good news again and again? Why didn't you win? The reputation of General Iron Horse is already known all over the country!"

"Yes, General Iron Horse is powerful. He is invincible!"

"Yeah yeah!"

"Great!"

"Then who knows! No matter how powerful you are, you are still a human being! This battle has dragged on for too long, and I can't afford it! There is not even half a grain of food in the official warehouses in the south of the Yangtze River!"

"Ham, let alone Jiangnan, the official warehouses in the south have basically run out of food and grass."

"What's wrong with the grain and grass! The pipeline is smooth, and it can't be transported from where to go!"

"That will definitely win!" A voice was high-pitched and excited.

When everyone heard such firm words, they all looked at the speaker, and Lin Hong also looked at him, waiting for him to finish.

"Don't you know? Your Majesty married Princess Changning to General Tie Ma! He also named him 'Marquis of Dingyuan'. Don't you think that he is absolutely sure that he will come back with a complete victory?"

"what?"

"what?"

Everyone was shocked.

Lin Hong was also stunned.Wan Guchuan is still on the battlefield, and the battle is in full swing. What does Emperor Deming do when he bestows the Marquis to marry him?

"real or fake?"

"General Tie Ma has done his best for the country, and there is nothing wrong with being a Marquis! Is it true that the marriage is granted?"

"What's so surprising about giving a marriage? Even if the edict is issued, can there be fakes?"

"If the edict is issued, the Iron Horse General may not accept it!"

"Oh, what you said, Princess Changning is famously beautiful, virtuous, virtuous, and knowledgeable. This is the blessing of several lifetimes of cultivation to marry such a wife! How could she not accept it?"

"—And ah, General Iron Horse is here!"

Lin Hong was startled.

"Wow!"

"A good couple!"

"Good man!"

"Good match!"

"The blessings that have been cultivated in the Dazheng dynasty!"

"When the Iron Horse General returns from victory, we will be blessed in the Great Conquest!"

"No matter how blessed you are, the Iron Horse General is blessed. What does it matter to us ordinary people?"

"Hey! You don't understand! General Tie Ma is such a powerful figure, he has to swear to serve the court to the death after marrying Princess Changning! Political stability, we ordinary people are naturally happy!"

"Hey, let's hope that this war will end soon!"

The group of people began to discuss the perfect match between the general and the princess again. Lin Hong couldn't listen to the deafening "matched match" anymore, so he got up and left the wine shop.

The sky in winter has always been gray, with scattered snowflakes falling down, and the cold wind is biting.

There were people coming and going on the street, talking and laughing, Lin Hong felt a little noisy.

It is the emperor's business to bestow a marriage, but what does it mean for Wan Guchuan to accept it?

The more Lin Hong thought about it, the more upset he became.I was still worried about his safety, but he was lucky and accepted a great marriage.

It seems to be very good, so there is no need for others to worry.

Lin Hong's heart has been in a mess these past few days, and more and more people in the market are talking about the emperor's bestowing marriages on generals and princesses, and it seems that it is not groundless.

During this period, Cheng Jinjiu came to bid him farewell, but Lin Hong couldn't stay, so he could only let him go.

Cheng Jinjiu has also helped Lin Hong a lot in the past month, and Lin Hong gave him a sword as a thank you.

The mountains are high and the waters are far away, let us gallop.

Lin Hong was absent-minded about several business deals recently, and Tu Hongxue asked him what was wrong.

"It's okay." Lin Hong pinched the bridge of his nose to let the fatigue dissipate.

He also tried to understand the gift of marriage.

The war is at a critical point, the emperor's conferring the marriage on the Marquis is probably to leave Wan Guchuan concerned and promise benefits. Is this because he is afraid of his treason?Now that the whole country knows the prestige of General Iron Horse, is the emperor afraid?

But what is the meaning of Wan Guchuan accepting the marriage edict?Could it be that he still wants to marry a princess at home, and then come to find himself?

Lin Hong narrowed his eyes.What does this take him for?

Besides, isn't he Wan Guchuan Xiang Xia?If he marries the princess, he will be chained to the court for the rest of his life.

Lin Hong recalled that Wan Guchuan said to him in Guifang, "When this battle is over, the imperial court will not need him", what did he mean?

Was he afraid that the imperial court would not need him, so he accepted the marriage contract to add a bargaining chip to himself?

Lin Hong was so distracted by so many thoughts that he wanted to ask Wan Guchuan to find out.

The snow in the south of the Yangtze River is continuous, and Lin Hong looks into the cold snow scene outside the window.

After much deliberation, I still hope that he can come back safely...

That night, Lin Hong slept until midnight and suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Who will it be at this time?

If other outsiders enter the escort agency, it is impossible to escape Tu, Cang, and Zhao. Is the escort in a hurry?

Lin Hong didn't wake up and was a little confused. He put on his coat and opened the door.

The cold wind poured into the house in an instant.

His "what's the matter" stuck in his throat.

A tall shadow enveloped him, and he was greeted by travel and dusty people, wearing stars and wearing moons.

Without saying a word, Wan Guchuan leaned over and hugged him tightly.

Almost half of his body weight was on him.

"Wan... Wanguchuan?" Lin Hong's heart beat faster, in disbelief.

Wan Guchuan's clothes were already soaked by the icy cold of the cold night, and Lin Hong could feel it very clearly through the thin coat.

His cold nose brushed against Lin Hong's neck, and even his exhaled breath was cold.Lin Hong turned his head slightly, and his ear touched his cold ear.

I don't know how long he traveled in the cold night.

"Lin Hong, I miss you."

A deep voice rang in his ears, and half of Lin Hong's body was shattered, and his palms were numb.

"Why are you back? The battle is over?" Lin Hong asked him to sit down and rest, poured him hot tea, and was preparing a hot bath for him.

Wan Guchuan's eyes have been glued to him since he entered the door, "No, he sneaked away."

"Master Hou, leaving one's post without authorization is a capital offense." Lin Hong handed him a clean suit and gestured to the bather behind the screen.

The emotion contained in this "Hou Ye" is rich.

Wan Guchuan got up and wrapped his arms around his waist, kissed his forehead, "I won't marry her. Don't be angry."

"The edict has been accepted, do you dare not marry? Are you not afraid of beheading?" Lin Hong put his arms on his chest to distance him.

Wan Guchuan wanted to say something else, but Lin Hong interrupted him, "Take a bath first, your clothes are all wet."

It was warm in the house now, and Wan Guchuan's frozen clothes melted into water.

Lin Hong sent the person behind the screen, and the bath was filled with water, which was steaming hot from the firewood below.

While taking off his clothes, Wan Guchuan said, "The battle is in full swing. Emperor Deming is afraid that I will betray you, so he just promised me some benefits. If I accept this edict without gratitude, wouldn't he be more suspicious?"

Lin Hong listened outside the screen, almost as he thought.

But what he really cared about was how not to marry Princess Changning after he returned from the victory. The imperial edict had been accepted, and the emperor's order was hard to disobey.

There was the sound of "squeaking" water from behind the screen, and the water overflowed and fell on the ground, and Wan Guchuan entered the bath, "After this battle, the Dazheng Dynasty will have at least a hundred years of stability, and I don't need it. Wait for me The next time I come back, I will go to the court to resign, disarm and return to the field, and give the general position to Vice General Zhang, who is capable enough."

Lin Hong was a little surprised, Wan Guchuan intended to retire.

No wonder the masked "Night Breeze" should have disappeared for a year, but he reappeared in front of Zhao Ganglong and Cang Lang, because he had found a way out.

It is not a bad thing to resign from office and go back to seclusion, and maybe it will save the disaster of killing one's life.

General Tie Ma's reputation is well-known throughout the country, and he is suspected of having great achievements to overwhelm the Lord. Can Emperor Deming not be afraid?

Are there few such examples in history?

Lin Hongzhen felt worthless for Wan Guchuan, loyal and devoted to killing the enemy and defending the country, but everyone in the court was jealous.

With the sound of water splashing, Wan Guchuan continued: "The imperial edict was written in an ambiguous way, saying that the princess would be married to the general. If I resigned from the general, how could Princess Changning marry me? I accepted the imperial edict just as a way to slow down the army. Please rest assured." Emperor Deming's heart. Vice General Zhang and Princess Changning are also in love with each other, isn't it a good thing?"

"I won't marry her—don't be angry, okay?" Wan Guchuan lowered his voice.

Lin Hong's heart skipped a beat, his face blushed, "I know, I know..." He quickly changed the topic, "Are you really all right for sneaking away?"

Wan Guchuan was silent for a while, "There is nothing to do tonight, I will leave early tomorrow morning."

leave early in the morning.

With a "buzz" in Lin Hong's mind, he went directly around the screen.
