Marshal, your vest is off

Chapter 320 Engagement
Cheng Yue nodded and said: "Yes, yes, that's it. But even if I say this, dad won't listen. Sister, future brother-in-law, what should I do?"

This matter really gave him a headache.

When there were a lot of things before, it was nothing, and his father wouldn't force him back then.

But now that there is peace, Dad will start.

And the key is, he can't be angry with his old man yet.

This was what made him most anxious.

Cheng Qing touched his chin and said, "Let's do this. I'll talk to my father tomorrow and see if I can convince him."

Cheng Yue stood up and hugged her excitedly, and said: "Sister, you are so kind, that's it, you continue to chat, I'm going to bed."

"Hey, hey, hey." Cheng Qing grabbed him and said, "Why are you walking so fast? I still have something to say."

Bai Xiuyuan had already sat next to him and had a drink. Looking at the way their brother and sister got along, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, but he couldn't stop the smile on his lips.

"Can we talk about anything else tomorrow? I'm almost exhausted these past two days."

"This is related to what I'm going to talk to dad about tomorrow. Do you want to tell me? If not, just leave."

"Hey, hey, let's talk, let's talk, isn't it enough?"

……

The days of fun and excitement in Yaowang Valley always go very quickly. On the third day of Uncle Bai's arrival, he took Bai Xiuyuan back to prepare the betrothal gift.

Mo Wen also liked this new old friend very much, and asked Uncle Bai to come and stay more often after they got married.

Uncle Bai who likes this place is naturally a dream come true.

Mo Wen, who has been alone for most of his life, has made so many friends when he grows old. He is so happy.

Although he still bickered with Cheng Qing every day, he also liked days like this. If he didn't bicker with her, he seemed to feel uncomfortable all over.

And what about Cheng Qing?

They agreed to Cheng Yue's matter and went to discuss it with their father the next day.

In the end, Father Cheng naturally agreed.

The most important thing is that Cheng Qing will be bewitched, saying that he wants to take Cheng Yue to meet all kinds of women everywhere, so let nature take its course, there will always be one he likes, and forcing him like this will be counterproductive.

Considering Cheng Yue's physical condition, it was really not suitable to push him too much, so Father Cheng agreed.

About ten days later, on the auspicious day of the chosen zodiac, Bai Xiuyuan came to Yaowang Valley in a high-profile manner with a bunch of betrothal gifts.

The betrothal gift was ten miles away, and there was already a long queue of people carrying the boxes.

Happy today.

Cheng Yue opened the avenue between the Bloodthirsty Grass and let Bai Xiuyuan's men carry the box in.

On this day, everywhere in Yaowang Valley was full of joy and red silk was everywhere.

Cheng Qing rarely wore a red dress. Although it was not a wedding dress, it was still very grand.

Her hair was styled in a complicated bun, hairpins and other exquisite headdresses were inserted between her temples, and her ears were adorned with pearl earrings.

A necklace was worn on the fair and slender neck, and a matching bracelet was worn on the wrist.

After all this, Cheng Qing felt like his neck was about to be broken.

But a few girls just refused to let her go, insisting that she go out to meet people like this.

Cheng Qing couldn't.

But when they helped her out, and then saw the astonished looks in everyone's eyes, she suddenly felt happy, feeling that this sin was not in vain.After a set of gifts, the engagement ceremony is completed.

Just as the elders were greeting each other for dinner, the arrival of a person broke the festive atmosphere.

This person was invited to the pick-up booth in Yaowang Valley.

Bai Xiu and Yuan Qing went to receive him together.

Seeing this patch of red, Zhao Wuyuan only felt a little dazzling, but what could this mean?

They're already engaged.

"Your Majesty." The two called.

Zhao Wuyuan turned around and saw Cheng Qing's exquisite dress. His eyes lit up, but he quickly realized it in a daze and said with a smile: "I can't drink the wine for your engagement, but the wine for your wedding." , I must drink it.”

Cheng Qing smiled and said: "The engagement wine is available right now, why do you say you can't drink it? Could it be that you despise our engagement wine, which is not as good as the ones in your palace?"

Zhao Wuyuan smiled bitterly and said, "Qing'er, please stop teasing me. This time, I'm here to ask for help."

"Help? What's the meaning of this?" Cheng Qing was stunned for a moment and asked.

Zhao Wuyuan sighed: "There has been a fight at the border, and our army is retreating steadily, so I came to you for help."

Cheng Qing frowned and said, "Why does it have to be us? Is there really no capable person in the court?"

Zhao Wuyuan smiled bitterly and said: "If there were capable people, I wouldn't come to you at this time. Qing'er, I hope you can be happy the most."

Bai Xiuyuan frowned. He hesitated to speak, but in the end he did not stop Cheng Qing.

"This..." Cheng Qing turned to look at Bai Xiuyuan. He had promised him, how could he break his promise?She turned to look at Zhao Wuyuan and said, "Then they should be able to survive for a few days, right? We'll go as soon as we get married."

"Qing'er..."

Zhao Wuyuan wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Cheng Qing, "Wuyuan, it's never a small matter to find out about me. Apart from serving the country and the people, I'm still a human being. Let me finish my personal matters before we talk about the fatal business matters, right?"

After saying that, she wanted to take Bai Xiuyuan and leave directly.

"Cheng Yue!"

Cheng Qing paused.

Zhao Wuyuan shouted this name to her back. Could it be that he already knew that she was...

"The border has been broken, and the brothers are dead and injured. Don't you care at all?!"

Cheng Qing was shocked and turned to look at him, "What did you say?!"

Zhao Wuyuan looked at her sadly and said: "If it weren't for this, if I hadn't been helpless, I wouldn't beg you. In fact, I always knew why you wanted to hide. You lied to me and told them. How long have I been sad for you because you didn't tell me alone? Shouldn't you take some responsibility? "

Cheng Qing pursed her lips, looked at him complicatedly, and asked, "When did you find out?"

"Imperial Palace, when you play that piece of music." Zhao Wuyuan replied.

Cheng Qing remembered that it was the night when the palace was haunted.She raised her hand and said, "Bring it here."

"What?" Zhao Wuyuan was a little confused.

Cheng Qing said: "If you let a woman take charge of the overall situation, wouldn't you prepare an imperial edict or something?"

Zhao Wuyuan reacted, took out the imperial decree from his sleeve, handed it to her, and sighed: "As expected of a marshal, he can do anything. The imperial decree is for you, no need to salute, just set off for the border on another day."

Cheng Qing accepted the imperial edict and said, "I will take people there as soon as possible. In addition, you should also inform them so that they can be prepared."

"I know this. I have already sent people eight hundred miles away to deliver the news." Zhao Wuyuan said.
