Many guests came to the birthday banquet, including important military officials. As the head of the southern army, Huo Mingchuan had many capable generals and many people who loved Huo Yuhan, but he only took a fancy to being knighted.

Holding Huo Yuhan's hand, he smiled and said to Feng Jue, "Yuhan has liked you since childhood. I think you don't have no feelings for her. If you agree, you will be officially engaged today and get married on another day."

This remark caused quite a stir on the stage.

Huo Mingchuan has only one daughter. His marriage to her means that after Huo Mingchuan abdicates his position, he is likely to directly inherit the position of supervisor.

This made many people who coveted the position of governor jealous one after another, and secretly looked at the title.

Fengjue also felt that Huo Yuhan was a hot potato for him. Now the situation of the southern army is uncertain. Fengjue's rash response to this marriage is no doubt not making enemies for himself, but if he doesn't agree, he will lose the face of the supervisor in front of so many people.

He didn't open his mouth and silently looked at Huo Yuhan with a shy smile on his face.

Huo Mingchuan noticed the hesitation of knighthood and said, "are you dissatisfied with Yuhan?"

"The domestic situation is not clear. The northern army has repeatedly committed crimes. As a general of the first army, I can't guarantee that I won't die in battle in the future. Yuhan is still young. I hope the supervisor will think twice."

To some extent, this is a rejection of Huo Mingchuan, and Huo Mingchuan can't find anything to pick on.

Because what fengjue said is not wrong. Now it is a period of war. Although blue city looks very calm, there are troops in the north every year. Every time there is a war, fengjue takes the lead in leading the troops. He has suffered large and small injuries and almost lost his life several times.

If Huo Mingchuan really wants his daughter to live well in the future, he should find someone who lives in peace. At least he can't find someone who has today and not necessarily tomorrow.

Huo Mingchuan hesitated.

Huo Yuhan tears in the corners of his eyes, knowing that he was rejected, but pretending to be strong, said: "it's okay, as long as I can marry you, I'm not afraid of anything."

Seeing his daughter's insistence, Huo Mingchuan said, "you are not young, and there is no suitable person around you. Let's settle the marriage for the time being, and make plans if there are changes in the future."

He made a direct decision for the knighthood.

The Duke was silent.

The original good birthday party ended in unhappiness, and the people who came to congratulate were also worried. Those who wanted to be the governor of the army were in an uncertain mood, and some had an obvious anger on their faces, while the knighthood maintained a calm expression from beginning to end, as if the person engaged to the daughter of the governor was not him, but someone else, and had nothing to do with themselves.

After Huo Mingchuan left, fengjue walked towards the crowd.

Seeing Qin Qian sitting at a small table with his head down and playing with snacks, Feng Jue said, "why don't you eat?"

Qin Qian lowered his head and said in a very shallow voice, "Uncle Feng, do you like her?"

"What do you want to say?"

Qin Qian asked, "tell me if you like her."

Feng Jue said, "I don't like it."

"Then why don't you refuse? You can refuse."

"She is the daughter of the supervisor. I can't refute Huo Mingchuan's face in front of so many people." Feng Jue said.

"But you don't like her. You said you don't do what you don't like."

Feng Jue frowned: "it's just a woman. For me, it hasn't changed. It's shallow. You should know the complexity. You can't do many things if you say you don't like them."

"I don't know!" Qin Qian drank all the red wine in the glass, turned and left.
