Marshal, your vest is off

Chapter 4
Her sadness didn't seem to be fake. Could it be that he was really paranoid?Bai Xiuyuan still didn't believe it.

Judging from Cheng Qing's performance alone, as Cheng Yue's sister, she is indeed outstanding.But it's just that he's so calm that makes people suspicious.

Bai Xiuyuan felt that Cheng Qing might have already made plans on this matter.

I just wonder if they will disrupt her plan if they act rashly like this?

These are all Bai Xiuyuan's guesses. He doesn't know Cheng Qing very well yet, so he can't just say some things like this.

"My condolences to Miss Cheng. I believe the marshal's spirit is in heaven, and I don't want you to be so sad." Bai Xiuyuan comforted.

Cheng Qing nodded, not wanting to get into more trouble with this issue. Seeing Zhuque Street ahead, she said, "Master Bai, just send me here. I have to buy some paper money and incense candles to go back to."

Unexpectedly, in such a chaotic situation just now, she not only noticed his name, but also remembered it. Bai Xiuyuan was slightly startled.

After thinking about it, Bai Xiuyuan said: "It's not safe for you to be alone outside. I'm not worried. I'd better send you back first. There are a few brothers left in the house. Miss Cheng can give them any instructions if she needs them."

"Then thank you, Mr. Bai." Cheng Qing was not polite anymore, and her purpose of coming out had been achieved.

"Miss Cheng, you don't have to be polite."

After Bai Xiuyuan sent Cheng Qing home, he gave the soldiers money to buy incense, candles and paper money, and then left.

Cheng Qing didn't want to take advantage of him, but Bai Xiuyuan said that he was Cheng Yue's good brother, and arguing with him about money meant she looked down on him. She was speechless and had no choice but to follow him.

The interaction between the two outside the door was clearly seen by Cheng's father inside, and his face turned livid with anger. When Cheng Qing came back, he said without giving her any chance to defend: "Kneel down."

"Dad?" Cheng Qing knelt down as he said, not quite understanding what made him so angry, and looked at his brother for help.

Cheng Yue felt sorry for her knees and said: "Dad, if you have something to say, please don't let her kneel down. I finally used herbal medicine to remove all the scars on her knees. She will turn blue again when she kneels down." ”

Cheng's father was almost angry to death. He glared at him and said with hatred: "You, you, you have been a slave to your sister since you were a child. Why did I give birth to such a useless person like you? Look at other people's families. Which brother and sister are like this? Are you like this?"

"I feel sorry for my sister, and I don't think it's wrong. Besides, why don't you feel sorry for her when she breaks her knees? When my sister first came back, you cried with heartache when you saw the injuries on her body." Regarding pampering your sister Cheng Yue was very stubborn about this matter. No matter how much he obeyed his father, he would always push back when it came to this matter.

After saying that, he pulled Cheng Qing up, bent down and patted the dust on her knees.

"You!" Cheng's father was turned red, his face turned red, he pointed at Cheng Yue and couldn't say a word.

"Cheng Qing!" Cheng Yue couldn't help but Cheng Yue pointed the finger at Cheng Qing. After half a month of teaching, this girl still didn't realize that she was a girl. How could she come back with a man so casually?If there is any gossip, her reputation will be ruined!

"Dad, what's going on? Are you so angry?" Cheng Qing asked with a smile.

"Didn't you promise father not to associate with those people? What did you say to find out where the Grand Master's Mansion is? I think you are just bluffing your father and me." Cheng's father blew his beard and stared fiercely, but those who really hurt No human words were spoken.

He suddenly lost control of his voice and spoke louder. Cheng Qing quickly reached out and pulled him in. He looked at the unresponsive soldiers outside, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Dad, please keep your voice down."

Cheng's father also realized it, lowered his volume, and said, "Please explain to me, what's going on?"

Cheng Qing sighed: "I can't say anything about the Taishi Mansion now. I hope I guessed wrong, otherwise it will be difficult for us to leave Anping in the future. As for Bai Xiuyuan sending me back, we just happened to meet him. He felt that it was not safe for me as a girl to live outside. , so he insists on sending me back, and I have nothing to do with him."

"Is that true?" Father Cheng was dubious.

Cheng Qing nodded. "Okay, as a father, I won't pursue the matter of him sending you back. You just said that if you guessed correctly, it would be difficult for us to leave Anping. So what do you mean? Dad was confused when he heard it." Cheng's father said.

Cheng Yue, who was on the side, thought carefully for a moment, looked at Cheng Qing in shock, and said, "Sister, are you saying that?"

Cheng Qing nodded again.

"Hey!" Cheng Yue frowned and hit his right palm with his fist, very unwillingly.

"What kind of riddle are you talking about?" Father Cheng became even more confused.

Cheng Yue, however, had no time to pay attention to Cheng's father. He pulled Cheng Qing and said, "Sister, why don't we run away? Don't worry about everything in Anping City. You come back to Yaowang Valley with me. I promise, even if he is the emperor, no matter what I do, It’s so awesome, you can’t even imagine stepping into it.”

Cheng Qing took out his hand, shook his head, and said disapprovingly: "Brother, we can't ruin the tranquility of Yaowang Valley. How can we hide for the rest of our lives? Let the soldiers come and cover up the water with the earth."

"you……"

Cheng Yue still wanted to persuade her, but was interrupted by the sound of a car rumbling outside.

A large number of eunuchs rushed into the small courtyard, and the eunuch who delivered the order came in and sang loudly: "The imperial edict has arrived! Cheng Chang comes out to receive the edict!"

Cheng Chang is the name of Cheng's father.

Father Cheng looked at his children and seemed to have guessed something. He sighed and walked out with his hands behind his back.

Cheng Yue and Cheng Qing also followed out.

"Cheng Chang received the order."

The three of them formed a 'pin' shape, with Father Cheng as the leader, and knelt down.

The eunuch who delivered the order opened the imperial edict and read: "By God's blessing, the emperor's edict says: Marshal Cheng Yue is a young hero, loyal to the country, wise and courageous, fighting against the enemy, winning many battles, and boosting the prestige of our country. However, God is jealous of the talented people. I am sad. I am deeply saddened by the loss of my dear friend. Now I am proclaiming Cheng Yue the Grand Marshal of the World's Arms and Horses, and I will give him a grand burial with the ceremony of a marshal. In addition, Cheng Yue has cultivated such talented people and has made great achievements through hard work. I specially designate him as Grand Master, and from now on, he will take charge of the Grand Master's Mansion. , admire this!”

After reciting the imperial edict, Cheng's father had not yet reacted.

Later, Cheng Qing pulled him, and he pretended to wipe his eyes sadly, raised his hands above his head, took the imperial edict, kowtowed and said: "The common people accept the edict to thank you, long live my emperor!"

The eunuch who conveyed the order helped Cheng's father up and reminded him: "Oh, Grand Master, you can't call yourself a commoner from now on, you have to call yourself a 'subject'."

"Yes, yes, thank you, father-in-law." Suddenly he was transformed from a commoner to a grand master. Cheng's father was dizzy at the moment, so he naturally told the eunuch what he said.

Looking at the dilapidated courtyard and the simple mourning hall, the eunuch who delivered the order sighed and said: "Grand Master, please forgive me, this man cannot be resurrected..."

As he spoke, he came closer and whispered: "The fact that you have not received any subsidy has made Long Yan very angry. The Emperor has ordered a thorough investigation of the Household Department. Let us tell you to let you know that the Emperor It’s really good for you and the marshal.”

"Thank you, father-in-law, for informing me." Father Cheng finally realized something and thanked him quickly.

　Thank you everyone for voting for me, keep going, I love you.
