After Being Forced to Marry the Evil Star General

The General's Mansion was busy again, Xiao Gaofei quickly went to Yao's house to invite two old doctors over, and Butler Tan excitedly went to order the kitchen to prepare good meals.

There was a lot of excitement inside and out, and then Butler Tan remembered that there were guests outside the door, trotted to the door, and said to the well-dressed girls: "My lord is too busy now, you go back and wait for news Well, he will come to you."

"Okay, thank you." Qing Yan led the girls away.

It so happened that the two doctors and Yao Muze rushed over in time, and before they could catch their breath, they were taken into the bedroom by Tan Butler and Xiao Gao.

As soon as they walked to the door, they saw Zhao Yelan and Yan Mingting hugging each other, they looked at each other, but no one made a sound.

Butler Tan coughed, and seeing that they hadn't moved, he knocked on the door again. Zhao Yelan pushed Yan Mingting, who even turned his head to look at them with a bit of resentment.

The doctors were also very helpless, they went up to check his physical condition, the hospital envoy said with a smile: "Yes, a good foundation is good, if you survive a catastrophe, you will have good luck, then you should rest well and eat more to make up for it. "

Zhao Yelan's hanging heart finally let go, and he looked at Yan Mingting, who also looked over, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

The hospital envoy prescribed a few more prescriptions, including diet and medicine.

Zhao Yelan thanked them solemnly, sent them out of the mansion himself, and then sent someone to grab the medicine, and then returned to the room to take care of Yan Mingting for dinner.

People who just woke up don't have a good appetite. People who can usually eat five bowls can only eat three bowls this time.

"..."

Zhao Yelan swallowed, and when he thought about his maximum meal intake of two bowls, he suddenly felt that if he lost so much blood, he might really not be able to make it through. It can be seen that sometimes it is still good to be a fool.

After eating enough, Yan Mingting assumed the posture of having a long talk: "I actually heard everything you said."

Zhao Yelan rubbed his brows and explained: "I didn't call them, but..."

"That's not what I'm talking about." Yan Mingting looked at him with burning eyes, "What happened to the letter that Ruan Xian said?"

Zhao Yelan was dumbfounded for a moment.

"You can't do this." Yan Mingting frowned slightly, and stroked his cheek, "If something happens to me, you can't have the idea of ​​committing suicide. You have to live a long life, so I can feel at ease."

"What's the use of my long life alone?" Zhao Yelan glanced at him. He was already alone. If something happened to Yan Mingting, the years to come would be tortured by endless loneliness. Well, the living are always in distress, do you think I will live happily?"

Yan Mingting was silent for a long time, knowing that he would definitely do this, his heart was completely soft. He has been instilled with the idea of ​​protecting his subjects since he was a child, and he has persisted for so many years. It is the first time he has tasted the feeling of being protected by someone. Behind the pain, there is endless joy hidden.

"Mengting, Mengting..." Yan Mingting embraced him, called his name, closed his eyes and smelled his fragrance, "It's great to be alive, I can see you every day again. "

Zhao Yelan wrapped his arms around his back, took a deep breath, smiled bitterly, and kissed his ear, cheeks, forehead and lips all the way.

"fortunately."

Fortunately, you survived, and so did I.

Yan Mingting's recovery is not bad, he eats a lot every day, but he has to lie in bed most of the time, he complained helplessly to Zhao Yelan: "I haven't been lying in bed for so long, these days are too hard."

Zhao Yelan couldn't agree, because he loves to lie in bed very much. If he didn't have something to do, he would rather lie down and eat every day.

"I'll go out for a while, you lie down well."

"What's the matter, are you going to find the girls?" Yan Mingting half leaned on the bed, squinting at him while eating melon seeds.

"Yes, not only do I want to find girls, but I also want to spend money on them." Zhao Yelan choked on him. This fellow knew exactly what he was going to do, so he insisted on making a scene of jealousy. idle.

Zhao Yelan took Xiao Gao to the room that he usually communicated with, searched around, and took out a box from a crack in the uneven wall, which was locked.

Xiao Gao found the key nearby, and was about to open it when he heard Zhao Yelan say that it was useless, but his key was inserted in without any mistakes. He happily opened the lock, and then he was stunned—

There is actually a box with a lock inside!

"Smelly girl, don't forget to play a little trick at this time." Zhao Yelan smiled, and threw the box to Xiao Gao, "Just smash it."

right! Wouldn't it be over if you smashed it directly?

With all his strength, Xiao Gao smashed the box with his bare hands, then held his hands in pain and went to the corner to blow.

Zhao Yelan picked up a stack of bank notes, walked into the tunnel, and came to the Hongxiu Building without anyone noticing.

The building is bleak, since Gu Niaoyou's accident, the door has not been opened here, and some servants and girls have already sneaked away. The remaining confidantes, such as Qingyan and A Chang, knew that Zhao Yelan was the master behind them, and they were still waiting for news.

As soon as Zhao Yelan walked into Gu Niaoyou's room, he saw those girls sitting together wiping tears.

Qingyan saw him first, and asked with red eyes: "Master Zhao, can sister Gu come back?"

The people here are all hard-working people, Gu Youyou has had the same experience, and he treats them kindly at ordinary times, and he has not left this meeting, and he is also looking forward to Gu Youyou's return.

"Don't wait any longer." Zhao Yelan put the banknotes on the table, and everyone shared some, "She asked me to give these to you, leave the capital, and find a good family in the future, it doesn't matter if you can't find them, these banknotes Enough for you to live comfortably in this life."

"What about her? Is it true that she won't come back?" Qing Yan asked with little hope.

Zhao Yelan shook his head and sighed, "Go quickly, this is not a place to stay for long."

Several people cried and packed their things, and left reluctantly.

In the end, only Zhao Yelan was left. He looked around, opened a wardrobe, took out the baggage stored inside, and opened it on the table.

It contains the most exotic spices and his favorite tea.

Every spring, Hongxiulou would secretly bring some tea leaves to him. When sending messages in the basket, besides some seasonal fruits, pears appeared the most, which has the effect of promoting body fluid and relieving coughs, because he is always coughing. Quite a few of his sachets were given by Gu Youyou. Outsiders made fun of him for his love of fragrances, but only Gu Youyou knew where his obsession with fragrances came from.

They are not relatives, they use each other, but they all put each other in the position of friends.

After returning to the mansion from Hongxiu Tower, Yan Mingting noticed that he was not in high spirits, and asked, "Is it all taken care of?"

Zhao Yelan nodded, yawned, and said he was going to sleep.

Yan Mingting hugged him from behind, comforting him silently.

Gu Niaoyou's case has already been tried, and she firmly insisted that Zhao Xu fled to her Hongxiu Building and threatened her to assassinate her. It has nothing to do with other people, neither the people in Hongxiu Building were involved, nor Zhao Yelan's relationship with her was exposed. , the final result of the trial is to temporarily hold him in the sky prison, and wait for the emperor to wake up and personally issue it.

Zhao Xuan woke up once in the middle. The knife was only a little away from his heart. It took a few days to save his life temporarily, and he has been in a coma ever since. The night before yesterday, he opened his eyes for a short while, saw Sun Muyun guarding the bedside, and heard that she had given birth to a dragon son, as if he had asked for the funeral, he braced his body to set up the prince, and then passed out again .

In the early morning, after Zhao Yelan got up, he took care of Yan Mingting for a while, and then went into the palace to visit. He happened to bump into Sun Muyun who was waiting for her. She had not given birth soon and needed to pay attention to her health, so she could only come to the dormitory occasionally to watch .

Li Jinyu, several ministers, and others were also in the palace. They met him and went outside to discuss government affairs for a while, but they had to prepare for the worst. Everyone's face was clouded with sadness.

Kan Chuan asked about Yan Mingting's body: "I heard that General Yan woke up, how is his recovery?"

"It's okay, he eats more than me." Zhao Yelan said.

"That's good, General Yan also suffered a lot this time."

"It's also thanks to you mentioning Lingyun Temple." Speaking of which, did he have to fulfill his vow and donate some incense money to the temple?

"Why, you went to Lingyun Temple?" Kan Chuan looked around, "You're not going back up the mountain, are you?"

Zhao Yelan acquiesced.

Kan Chuan was shocked: "Three days away from Shishi, it's really... admiration."

Because of the delay in talking with them, when Zhao Yelan returned home, he heard Butler Tan say that Yan Mingting refused to eat, so he hurried into the house, and saw Yan Mingting staring at the food on the table bitterly. .

"Why don't you eat?" Zhao Yelan sat down beside him.

"Is his condition serious?" Yan Mingting asked.

"The imperial doctor said it was better than the previous one. Yao Muze's master took the witch doctor to make a diagnosis and treatment, and prescribed a new prescription, which might be useful." Zhao Yelan put some vegetables in his bowl.

"Then why did you come back so late?" Yan Mingting said aggrievedly, "We agreed to come back early to have dinner together."

"After chatting with Kan Chuan and Li Jinyu for a while, I came back late."

"Really? It's not because of the emperor?" Yan Mingting glanced at him, then suddenly moved closer to his cheek and stared carefully at his eyes, "You didn't cry for him, did you?"

"Why am I crying?" Zhao Yelan asked blankly.

"You always cry when I'm hurt... It's fine if you don't cry for him, eat and eat." Yan Mingting's appetite came up again, "Feed me."

"Don't push yourself too far."

Yan Mingting slowly raised his hand, and the scars on his wrists were displayed in front of him. Zhao Yelan's heart softened immediately, and he fed him patiently.

"Ouch." Butler Tan came to refill the dishes, walked to the door and saw this situation, almost fell down, holding the plate in both hands, and said to Xiao Gao next to him, "Cover my eyes."

In the afternoon, news suddenly came out in the prison that the woman who assassinated the emperor died suddenly. However, the imperial physicians were busy treating the emperor, so after several guards confirmed that there was no breath, Li Jinyu had no choice but to have the assassin thrown into a mass burial. Gang went.

Two days later, good news finally came from the palace, Zhao Xuan woke up, and all the ministers rushed to the palace, except Yan Mingting who was still recovering from his injuries.

Yan Mingting was lying on the bed all day these days, stretching out his clothes and opening his mouth to eat, at first he was quite carefree, his tail was almost up to the sky.

But ever since Zhao Xuan woke up, he clearly needed to lie down and recuperate, but he often left the courtiers in the palace to discuss political affairs. He wanted to make up for the government affairs that had been left behind, and he attached great importance to Zhao Yelan. To leave him to discuss matters.

Yan Mingting lay on the bed and couldn't see anyone all day long, and he started to have Xiao Jiujiu in his heart again. After catching Zhao Yelan, he began to complain: "I'm going to grow hair if I lie down every day."

Zhao Yelan has been taking care of Yan Mingting at home for the past few days, and he has a backlog of things. Seeing that he is eating and sleeping well, and recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye, he is going to the palace to discuss business matters with Zhao Xuan, so he said: " Then I'll find someone to chat with you to relieve boredom?"

But who to ask?

Although He Cuizhang and the others often came to visit Yan Mingting these days, Yan Mingting fell ill, and there were more places that needed them, so it was impossible for them to come and chat with them.

Coincidentally, Butler Tan's wife walked by him.

Mrs. Tan was originally one of the old lady's maidservants. After marrying Butler Tan, she still worked with him as an errand in the Yan family. She was mainly responsible for the tea trees and fruit trees on the back mountain. She roasted the tea herself.

What a coincidence.

Zhao Yelan asked her to put down the fruit she had just picked, and entrusted her to chat with Yan Mingting.

"That's a good thing, the general is the one I've seen since I was a child, so I'll go." Mrs. Qin went to look for Yan Mingting with a smile.

Only then did Zhao Yelan feel relieved to go to the palace, and it was already night when he came back, as soon as he entered the mansion, he asked, "Has he eaten?"

"Not yet." Butler Tan said.

"Waiting for me again?"

"No... Oh, my lord, you can go and see for yourself." Butler Tan was too embarrassed to continue.

Zhao Ye followed him to the bedroom in a cloud of mist. He heard laughter inside from a long distance away. When he walked to the door, he saw a pile of melon seed shells on the ground. The two were chatting and laughing while eating melon seeds. The loud voice still hasn't stopped, winking and saying in a cadence: "The daughter of the sesame seed cake seller in the vegetable market is 18 years old, and she hasn't talked about marriage until now. Guess what happened?"

"What's the matter?" Yan Mingting asked enthusiastically.

"Because she eloped with someone else, and she is still the fiancée-in-law with her cousin! After running away for half a year, they abandoned her, and she was pregnant when she came home. What do you call this!"

"It's nothing to worry about!"

"There is something worse than this, the scholar in the east of the city, his son..."

Butler Tan looked at Zhao Yelan in embarrassment: "Now you know why I put her in the back mountain, right? There are so many things to talk about, and so many gossips to know..."

At first, Mrs. Tan also worked in the front yard, but she was too talkative, and accidentally attracted a bunch of servants to listen to her gossip. Everyone didn't want to work, just like Yan Mingting, who didn't even want to eat.

Zhao Yelan: "..."

Forget it, as long as he is happy, it doesn't matter what he hears is elegant storytelling or gossip in the city.

The next day everyone was discussing in the palace again, this time the main point of contention was the establishment of the crown prince, the crown prince was established too hastily before, only the palace staff and the imperial physician present knew, now that the emperor's life was safe, they advised him to think twice. After all, Sun Muyun is the only one in the harem at present, and it will not be too late to postpone the matter of the crown prince for a few years.

Zhao Xuan insisted on his own opinion, and must establish a reserve.

Under everyone's strong opposition, only Zhao Yelan stood up: "I support the establishment of the crown prince."

Zhao Xuan sighed: "It's still Zhao Qing who understands me, so there is no need to discuss this matter."

Zhao Xuan originally came from a **** battle to seize the heir, he naturally didn't want his heirs to face such a situation from the bottom of his heart, and he had no relationship with the queen, so Sun Muyun was more cute and cute in the harem. Now that you have the eldest son, let's take advantage of the situation.

Of course, the most important reason for him to establish a crown prince at that time was his physical condition. He was worried that he would not be able to afford it, so he simply established a crown prince first.

After the others retreated, Zhao Xuan asked Zhao Yelan to stay, coughed a few times, his face was a little pale, and he said slowly, "How is Yan Mingting recovering?"

"Life is no longer in serious danger, but I still need some time to recuperate."

Zhao Xuan nodded. It happened that Sun Muyun came to visit him with the child in her arms. Zhao Xuan touched the child's face with a smile and said, "His name is Zhao Sui. May he be safe and healthy and have a smooth life."

"Good name."

"You don't have to perfunctory me." Zhao Xuan smiled, "When he was still in the womb, I thought of a lot of names with high hopes, and I went to the gate of ghosts, only to find that nothing is more happy than being safe and healthy. gone."

"Yes." Zhao Yelan felt the same way.

"In the future, you will be his tutor."

The Grand Tutor had always selected people from the Imperial Academy, Zhao Yelan was just a little surprised that Zhao Xuan was willing to entrust him with the heavy responsibility of teaching the Crown Prince.

"The concubine thinks so too!" Sun Muyun laughed, "Lord Zhao is perfect."

Zhao Yelan had no choice but to accept this heavy responsibility under the expectant eyes of the two.

Back at the General's Mansion, just in time for dinner, he found that Yan Mingting looked at him strangely, and couldn't find out why, so he told him about his promotion, and now he is the Prince and Grand Tutor.

Unexpectedly, Yan Mingting's eyes became even weirder, he stared at him dumbfounded for a while, and then put down his chopsticks without saying a word, I lay down on the bed with pity, and silently covered the quilt, my back looked quite sad.

Zhao Yelan was at a loss, and when he left the residence the next day, he whispered a few words to Xiao Gao.

The emperor officially announced Zhao Yelan's promotion to the crown prince and Taifu in public, and rewarded him with the Four Treasures of the Study.

Zhao Yelan returned home with a few large boxes of rewards, and the servants moved in and out. When Yan Mingting heard the movement, he looked at him with resentment, like a wretched woman who had been abandoned tragically.

Zhao Yelan found Xiao Gao and asked, "Didn't he have a good chat with Mrs. Tan these past two days? Why is he depressed?"

Xiao Gao said: "I was very happy at first, but I am not very happy to hear Mrs. Qin talk about her distant cousin."

"What's up?"

Xiao Qingqing cleared his throat and imitated Mrs. Tan's voice: "Oh, Xiaoyan, you don't know how hard my cousin's life is after she got married. Her husband is good-looking and capable, and the peach blossoms you provoke outside Too much, socializing outside all day long, not at home all day, and when I go home, I bring things from others, and when I ask, it’s still from him, Qingmei! This is probably because his husband dislikes her because she can’t dress up at home all day long. She has little knowledge, so she should find a date outside. According to me, she should spend more money on herself, and spend money where she should spend, otherwise, the money saved for her husband will be saved for other women. It’s gone! Do you think this is the reason?”

"..." Zhao Yelan returned to the room, sat down by the bed, and asked, "You don't want to know what's in those boxes?"

"I don't want to." Yan Mingting turned his back to him, and snorted, "It's nothing more than something to please you, who doesn't seem to have it. Do you think he is annoying? The prince has everything, and he keeps looking for you if he has nothing to do. What to do? I always suspect that he has bad intentions, you have to be careful."

Zhao Yelan pursed his lips, and said with a smile: "Those are all rewards for you, a reward for your expedition."

Yan Mingting was taken aback, then turned around: "Really?"

"Well, if you don't believe me, go and see for yourself."

Yan Mingting really got up, checked the boxes one by one, and was satisfied. After returning to the room, he didn't know what he thought of, and changed his clothes while Zhao Yelan was taking a bath.

As soon as Zhao Yelan came out, he saw him wearing a fancy dress, sitting on the edge of the bed, leaning against the bed curtain, coughing softly: "Mengting~ It's time to go to bed~"

A crack appeared in Zhao Yelan's expression: "What's wrong with you all of a sudden? What are you doing in my clothes?"

"Don't you like these clothes?" Yan Mingting heard from Mrs. Qin that if he wanted to win the heart of a man who was running around all day long, he had to match what he liked first, and he had to be able to seduce him!

Zhao Yelan rubbed the center of his brows, went up and took off his clothes, and urged: "Hurry up and go to sleep."

Yan Mingting was surprised: It has a miraculous effect!

I can't wait to take off his clothes so quickly and urge him to sleep, hehe!

"Wait." Yan Mingting continued his efforts, quickly took out a sachet from the side drawer, and rolled it around his body, trying to get some scent. It is said that it is very useful in the room, and Zhao Yelan likes the scent so much, He will definitely be hooked.

In Zhao Yelan's dumbfounded expression, Yan Mingting finished his preparations, lay down immediately, and hooked his fingers at him: "Mengting, come quickly—Ah Qiu! Ah Qiu!"

Zhao Yelan didn't look any further, and snatched the sachet from his hand.

"What's going on, Qiu!" Yan Mingting kept sneezing.

"You took Jiang Li." Zhao Yelan said speechlessly.

Yan Mingting was dumbfounded: "How could it be... Ah Qiu! Ah Qiu! That's it!"
