Chapter 207 Forced Marriage
The next day, there was no one on the pier. Since the Fuhan army brought the war to Anhui, the Yangtze River waterway has been completely interrupted. There are not many boats on the river. It looks lonely. Only a few passenger ships are still moored at the pier. superior.

Chen Caiwei took Yushu in a carriage and drove all the way to the pier, and then Yushu stretched out a small hand to pull the curtain, and the master and servant got out of the carriage.

At this moment, an old boatman walked over from the pier. He walked over to salute Chen Caiwei, and then moved some luggage from the car to the boat.

Yu Shu seemed to be quite familiar with Lao Chuan's family, so he also moved things together, and shouted angrily: "This time it's for nothing, I don't have anything in the army, and I didn't bring you any special products. Cough, that's the same thing." Mr. Ning's actions are not smooth, this Anqing city has been besieged for a long time and he still hasn't taken it down."

The old boatman just smiled honestly, and then said in a low voice: "It's best if you are safe and sound this time, young master. After we go home, we will never come here again."

The two were busy, but Chen Caiwei didn't join in the excitement. She just stood alone on the pier, feeling a bit chilly, and wrapped her black cloak tightly around her body.

After Yushu was tidied up, he opened the boat curtain and got in, and then said loudly to the outside: "My lord, come up quickly, it's windy outside, be careful of catching a cold."

Chen Caiwei responded softly, and then walked towards the cabin, but she was a little bit unwilling after all. She turned her head and glanced at the heavily guarded city of Anqing, and sighed slightly. That person should launch a general attack in the next few days. It's just that it's all irrelevant to me.

When Chen Caiwei turned her head and walked towards the boat, there was a crisp sound of horseshoes coming from behind. The sound came from far to near, as if it was coming directly towards the pier.

Chen Caiwei looked back, but saw dozens of people galloping all the way on fast horses. The leader was Ning Yu, with a helpless smile on his face, but staring at her from a distance.

"Why did Brother Chen leave suddenly? If Ning did not treat guests well, please forgive me." Ning Yu rode up to Chen Caiwei, then got off the horse and bowed his hands in salute.

This movement alarmed the old boatman and Yushu, the two came out of the boat, staring at the scene in front of them in a daze.But Yu Shu spoke bluntly, and said loudly: "Hmph, you still know how to treat guests poorly, but this book boy has never seen such a rude person!"

Chen Caiwei glanced at the little bookboy, and said, "Yushu, keep silent!" Then she looked at Ning Yu, "Why did the governor come here in such a hurry? The battle situation is urgent, and the governor should put military affairs first. It's just me and Yushu, Originally, it was planned to return today, so as not to miss the departure date.”

Ning Yu was a little embarrassed, he didn't say much, he just waved his hand, and several people came out behind him, and started to move the luggage down the boat without saying a word, but this scene made Chen Caiwei a little surprised, this Ning Yu originally also Not such a rude and rude person, why is it like this today?
Seeing that the luggage and the jade books were about to be moved off the boat together, Chen Caiwei bowed respectfully and said: "If I offend the governor, I can apologize to the governor here, but my father is still waiting, so it is not good to stay here any longer. "

Ning Yu sighed, and said seriously: "Whether you go back or not, the overall situation cannot be changed, but as long as you stay, there is a way now, at least to ensure that your father is safe."

"What way?" Chen Caiwei felt a little bad, she couldn't help but wanted to take out the dagger in her sleeve.

"Marry me."

It took Ning Yu a lot of effort to explain clearly to Chen Caiwei that the so-called marriage can also be fake, but to confirm this in name, it can be regarded as the implementation of the previous marriage strategy .

Of course, this would be quite beneficial to both Ning Yu and the Chen family. First of all, sticking to the marriage strategy would at least ensure that the White Lotus Sect would not fall to the Qing army, although it would not fall to themselves, but this was enough up.The second is to insert a nail into the White Lotus Sect so that it can be absorbed and digested in the future.

There are actually many reasons why Ning Yu or the Fuhan Army attaches great importance to the White Lotus Sect. One of them is that the hidden strength of the White Lotus Sect itself is very large, and the energy it can unleash is not as simple as it seems at the moment. Foreign aggression caused other tributaries of the White Lotus Sect to fail to merge with them.

But after the power of the Qing army subsides, the White Lotus Sect will usher in a very large period of development. At that time, the so-called millions of people is not a joke, but has the strength to do it.At that time, the White Lotus Sect will become an obstacle for the Fuhan Army to enter the Central Plains, and if a fight really happens, it will be easy to give Manqing a chance to breathe. Because of this, Ning Yu wants to play a few chess pieces in the White Lotus Sect. Take control of the situation.

Of course, for the Chen family, with such powerful foreign aid as the Fuhan Army, not to mention gaining the upper hand in the struggle, but at least they can maintain the status quo and not be completely wiped out by Liu Ruhan. This is also the key reason why Chen Caiwei agreed.

Ning Yu didn't delay, and directly invited Li Fu to be a matchmaker, simply set up a few tables of banquets, and worshiped the heaven and the earth, but neither of the parents of the two parties was present, which is unprecedented in this era of feudal ethics.However, the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes do not pay so much attention. Everyone is seeking survival and development. The so-called love for children is the final reason, and it is not the key factor Chen Caiwei considers, so she does not want to go out because of some common customs Repeatedly.

Marriage returned to marriage, and the business was not delayed. The cannons under the city roared together when Ning Yu worshiped, which added a bit of joy to Ning Yu, but it was pity for the Qing army on the top of the city, who was blown dizzy. There is no reason to go.

Yue Zhongqi hadn't closed his eyes for two full days. Ever since he sent Kangxi a secret report, he felt that something was wrong. According to common sense, the Fuhan army should storm Anqing City. After all, after the arrival of Kangxi's army, But there is no chance, but for such a long time, they just bombarded the city every day, and there was no other movement.

It doesn't matter if there is no movement, the Fuhan army doesn't know what to do in the barracks, it seems that the morale is getting higher day by day, which makes Yue Zhongqi really puzzled, it can be said that this is the strangest battle he has ever fought , But there is no way, the Fuhan army does not attack the city, and Yue Zhongqi dare not rush out of the city to attack, otherwise, with the quality of this group of people, without taking advantage of the geographical advantage, it is estimated that they will be easily defeated.

All in all, Ning Yu, who was besieging the city, has been doing some chores carelessly all the time, and can't think of the matter of attacking the city at all, while Yue Zhongqi, who is besieged, anxiously wants the Han army to attack the city, hoping to be able to conquer the city. The vigor of the Fuhan army was ground under the city of Anqing.

Just when everyone was motionless, the second defensive division of Uji-kei finally arrived at Liantan Town.
