Perfect Encounter

An Ruochen asked: "Daddy agreed?"

"No, he declined."

An Ruochen was stunned, how did that silly younger sister put on the happy appearance that she was about to get married.

An Ruochen sighed inwardly, and asked patiently: "Why do you refuse? Although Daddy is not dealing with Xue's family, this time it is Master Xue who is begging to settle down, and it is about the life of his only son. It is clear that Daddy is letting Daddy make conditions and offer benefits." Something. Could it be that Dad is trying to whet Master Xue's appetite, so that he will open his mouth after making him anxious."

"No." An Ruoxi shook her head, "I asked my mother, and she said that Daddy doesn't want to teach me to get married yet."

An Ruochen frowned: "Because of Qian Pei?"

"She didn't say it clearly, but I guess so." An Ruoxi was no longer excited, she frowned and said in distress: "Master Qian is always concerned about my marriage, and he said earlier that he would introduce some suitable people. How about you Sometimes I came over to frighten my father, saying that it is good for our An family to marry anyone, but it is not good to marry Qian Pei. Afterwards, I heard my father and mother say that Master Qian did not say that he would marry our family again. Which one to choose from time to time, just let Master Qian know."

"Maybe Daddy is Master Qian's lost child many years ago, so treat him like a father."

An Ruochen's words were blinded by An Ruoxi. "Don't put it so harshly."

"It's better to say it badly than to do it badly. Is it plausible that my daughter has to tell an outsider who she is marrying?" An Ruochen was annoyed, "The Xue family doesn't deal with our An family, and of course they don't like Qian Pei. In the past, Dad once scolded, saying that Mr. Qian hosted a banquet, which one would not go, and when discussing business, he heard that it was related to Qian Pei, so he refused. Dad scolded people for not knowing good and bad, so it was the Xue family, right?"

"Yes, yes, I remember that too."

An Ruochen didn't understand: "So it's normal for Daddy to reject this marriage. Besides, Mr. Xue is young and sick, his life is not long, and he is not a good match. You are because no one came to propose marriage for too long, someone will come So let's have fun for a while?"

An Ruoxi squeezed angrily and sat down next to An Ruochen: "What do you mean? I haven't come to propose marriage for a long time, who is responsible for this? My eldest sister ran to beat the drums to report to the police in the middle of the night, and the fourth younger sister was in full bloom. The disappearance of this family seems to be haunted by evil spirits, you can talk nicely when you talk outside. Besides, if you offend Mr. Qian, whoever doesn't weigh his words. Otherwise, why should I just get married? Go to another county. But sister, you have been here for a long time, and you haven't found a suitable relative in another county. You also said that the situation is not good, and you can't leave for a long distance. You see, I didn't blame you. "

An Ruochen was speechless, didn't she complain? Who is that person who often comes to her place to yell and pat the table?

An Ruoxi said: "Now that the Xue family is here to propose marriage, isn't it a great opportunity?"

An Ruochen frowned. Hearing this, An Ruoxi actually wanted to marry? "Then Mr. Xue is weak and short-lived, right?"

"I know what my sister wants to say." An Ruoxi straightened her face, pursed her lips, and said, "In the past, if Master Xue came to propose marriage like this, I would definitely not want to. Who wants to marry a tuberculosis ghost. At that time, I will be a widow at a young age. But today is different. Now I am sandwiched between you and Mr. Qian, and I am not a human being. He will kill me if he wants to, and you will poison me if you poison me. It's a scourge. If I marry someone, I'll marry someone who won't deal with Mr. Qian. At that time, my parents will flatter Mr. Qian, and Mr. Qian wants to deal with it. I have to listen to what my husband's family wants. I won't go back to my mother's house at that time, and I won't have to see Mr. Qian's face. Also, I won't be able to harm you, so you give me the antidote. I counted and counted, this is really The door is so dear."

An Ruochen was speechless, it turns out that her second sister is not stupid.

An Ruoxi continued: "Besides, Xue's family is a big family, and everything must be good for food, housing, transportation. I heard that Master Xue and Mrs. Xue are generous, not mean and strict. I also heard that although Mr. Xue's family is weak, , but also polite and well-read poetry and books. It's just because of my health, I can't go to the exam. Instead of waiting for the marriage in another county that you don't know when you can talk about it, or when your father will give Qian Pei Xiangzhong's accomplice If I continue to be coerced and coerced by him for fun, I might as well marry into a good family like the Xue family. Whether I am happy or Mr. Xue is sick, at least I will not be bullied by others, and I will not be afraid all the time."

An Ruochen understood. "Daddy refused the marriage, do you want me to help you finish the marriage?"

"Yes!" An Ruoxi regained her spirits, "Sister, there is no such store after passing this village. Tell me, is there any family that is as big as the Xue family to propose marriage to me? How far can a good family hide from me?" How far, this is an opportunity God gave me, I can't miss it."

An Ruochen thought about this matter in her heart, and asked her: "Is it ugly for Daddy to refuse?"

An Ruoxi froze immediately, "I heard that the words are quite unpleasant."

"Did dad look for Qian Pei after the marriage refusal?"

"Never. I heard that Master Qian has gone back to Fu'an County."

An Ruochen said: "I'll think about it. I'll ask what's going on with Xue's family first. Since Daddy refused, I'm afraid it won't be easy in the future. You have to calm down, don't discuss this matter at home, don't let Daddy and Your mother be careful, otherwise they will discuss it with Qian Pei, and you will be finished."

An Ruoxi was startled. "Master Qian won't rush over to other households so quickly that he can teach Daddy to marry me in?"

"If he chooses someone, he will naturally listen to his orders. After you marry, if he still wants to use you and send you to do something, then the husband's family will naturally follow him."

"Could it be possible that he will still be allowed to bully his wife?"

"In this world, there are pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep like fathers who sell their daughters to more than sixty cruel old men for business, and there are chickens, ducks and geese who regard their wives as objects to please their masters."

An Ruoxi snorted coldly: "That's right, even a general with a righteous face will secretly poison people."

An Ruochen said coldly: "Do you want me to drive you out?"

An Ruoxi bit her lip, and muttered aggrievedly: "No sister is so defensive. The general did something disgraceful, it was done by a wicked person."

An Ruochen said: "I've asked, the general is not interested in taking your life, just to prevent you from being used to murder me. Brother Lu will give you an antidote every month, and you will be fine. I don't believe you You can go to the medical hall to find a doctor for consultation."

"I've been there. The doctor can't see anything wrong." An Ruoxi looked unhappy. "Although our sisterhood is not deep, I have also thought about it carefully. I have never harmed my sister."

"Yes, it's just that your mother bullied my mother and caused her to suffer a lot. Then when I was beaten and scolded by my father and promised to marry Master Qian, you just took pleasure in other's misfortune and ridiculed me."

An Ruoxi's face became hot: "So now the feng shui is turning, and it's my turn to deliver it to my door for my sister to ridicule."

"It really makes people happy, doesn't it?"

An Ruoxi bit her lips, and said: "Then you're done with your joy, help me think of a way. I want to marry Mr. Xue."

An Ruochen stared at her, how reserved? An Ruoxi looked at her eagerly, An Ruochen was really angry, and said: "I will go and inquire about Xue's family, and if it is really suitable, I will think about how to get married for you."

An Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief.

When Long Da returned to Zhonglan City, he went to the prefect's mansion before entering Ziyun Tower.

The prefect Yao Kun heard the report and rushed to the hall to meet each other. He was shocked when Long Da said that Huo Mingshan had ventured into the country to discuss matters.

"The Prime Minister Huo who negotiated the peace seventeen years ago?"

"Exactly. He has no official position now, but he has a letter from the Emperor of Nanqin who sent him to discuss matters and investigate the situation. Strictly speaking, he can be regarded as an envoy visiting our country."

Yao Kun agreed with Long Da's strategy. "I will welcome him into Zhonglan City with a grand gift, and then I will send someone to deliver the memorial first, and tell the emperor about the seriousness of the matter. Let the officials in the court also help lobby, so that Mr. Huo can smoothly make a statement in front of the emperor. How, this trip to Beijing can drag on for a long time, and we still have a chance to solve the case in Shimao County, the misunderstanding at the border, and the secret work in Zhonglan City." He thought for a while, and heaved a sigh of relief: " It would be great if it could stop the war."

"I hope so. My lord, please prepare as soon as possible. I will send someone to Beijing today. In addition, I have to send two more envoys to visit Southern Qin."

Yao Kun thought for a while and nodded. Come and not reciprocate indecently. Since he accepted the envoy from the South Qin Kingdom, he had to do his best on the scene. They sent two more envoys to explain the situation, clarify the truth, and stabilize the situation. "This is all cleaning up Maojun Shi Pingqing's ass. I have to help deal with the troubles caused by him on the other side." But if he handles it well, then when it comes to meritorious service in the future, this is him, Yao Kun. Thanks a lot. "I'll also report to Shi Pingqing as soon as possible, and ask him to keep Dongling stable, and don't cause trouble at this turning point. Dongling's soldiers are weak, and if Nanqin doesn't do it, they will never dare to fight on their own. What's more, it seems It's like Dong Ling's instigation, wanting to enjoy the benefits of the fisherman. I have to ask Shi Pingqing to take a closer look at the situation."

Long Dao: "My lord, let's prepare as soon as possible. Prepare the etiquette and welcome team. The bigger the scene, the better. Tomorrow, come to the general barracks to pick up Mr. Huo."

Yao Kun agreed without hesitation, and the two discussed it in this way, and Long Da left. Yao Kun didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly sent someone to call Jun Cheng, Zhu Bo, and the county magistrates of the surrounding counties to discuss the matter.

Long Da went back to the Ziyun Tower, not daring to stay longer, so he quickly summoned all the officials and generals to inquire about the city's official affairs, and explained that Huo Mingshan had entered Zhonglan City and went to the capital to meet the emperor. Among them, the defense and guard arrangements, as well as Mao County's instability, have an impact on their Pingnan County's defense. How will Dong Ling and Nan Qin Ruo join forces to deal with it. Order all reports not to be delayed, report military preparations in each Hyogo, and report military information to other county officials and generals, just in case.

After explaining everything, Long Da left the yamen hall and was about to see An Ruochen, but saw her waiting outside the yamen hall.

"I heard that the general is back. I also heard that the general is in a hurry to leave, so I'm waiting here."

Long laughed loudly, and felt at ease when he saw An Ruochen. "I'm quite anxious, so what do you want to say to me?"

An Ruochen took out three letters calmly and calmly: "This one is to report on official business. I have made adjustments to some staff in the building. This one is for private matters. I discussed with the prefect's wife about the status of the wedding preparations." Don't worry, the general, the general is busy with military affairs, and the wedding will never be held so soon. Besides, if you and I hold a wedding in Zhonglan, we still need three gifts and six engagements. Anyway, we have to issue a Geng Tie and a gift list from the capital, all in all. There are a lot of things, and it will take a lot of time, the general will guard the border and handle the military situation with peace of mind."

Why does this explain so much like the tricks he used against Huo Ming, buy time first, and drag and drop to find a turning point. "Miss An Ruochen."

"Yes, General."

"You can only attack but not retreat, remember?"

"Remember. This is not a special list for the general to let the general know what needs to be done, and what stage has been done. I am doing things carefully."

Long Da looked at the third envelope: "What about this one?"

"This letter is the intention of only attacking and never retreating."

Long Damei raised his eyebrows high, his eyes glowed: "Love talk?"

"It's some request to the general."

Long Da: "..."

"Is the general going back to the general barracks?"

Long Da was annoyed: "Are you trying to drive me away?"

"I feel sorry for the general's running around, but it would be bad if the general's business is delayed. The general will read these letters slowly when he goes back."

Long frowned, saying that he was distressed, but did not take any actual action. "Come here." He commanded.

An Ruochen stood over. Long Da hugged her in his arms, touched her head, and taught her: "If you want to show reluctance, it should be like this when you send off."

"Okay." An Ruochen didn't refute, and reached out to wrap his arms around his waist.

After hugging for a while, Long Da really had to go. Wanting to kiss her, but also worrying about the many guards watching, he gave up after thinking about it, and said, "I'm leaving."

"Okay." An Ruochen followed Long Da all the way to the stables, and when Long Da got on the horse, she also pulled out the war drum, and put on the saddle on the back of the war drum.

Long Da raised his eyebrows.

An Ruochen pursed her lips to hide her shyness: "I want to ride a horse, otherwise I will be unfamiliar with riding skills. It just so happens that I also want to go to the east gate."

Long stared at her. An Ruo didn't see the morning clothes, got on the horse, and asked solemnly: "General, how are you going? Are we going on the way? If it's on the way, let's go together, and we can still talk."

Long Da clamped the horse's belly that was like the wind, and urged the horse to the side of Zhangu, and turned to look at An Ruochen: "Miss An Ruochen, are you getting more and more rascal?"

An Ruochen was not convinced: "Obviously quite reserved."

Long Da laughed so hard that An Ruochen couldn't help but also smirked. Then Long Da lowered his head and kissed her lips: "Miss An Ruochen, I can't hold back any longer. You continue to control yourself."

An Ruochen blushed and stared at Zhan Gu's head, not daring to look around at all. Listening to Long Dao: "It's on the way, let's go."

An Ruochen couldn't help laughing again, her face was like a peach blossom, her eyes were like water, and she urged her horse to follow Long Da. All the way to the gate of the east city, and on the way, he and Long Da talked about his sister's marriage, but Long Da didn't seem surprised, or maybe he wasn't interested, so he just responded and changed the topic. An Ruochen felt that he was preventing her from mentioning the matter of poisoning, but of course she was sensible and didn't say it.

When Long Da rode his horse away, An Ruochen was reluctant to let go, and immediately stood by the road to watch him for a long time. Long Da rode back for a while and saw her standing in the same position. Feeling warm in Long Da's heart, he led the guards back to the barracks as quickly as possible. He didn't look back all the way, but he thought in his heart that Miss An of his family was really disobedient and always acted out of common sense.

Long Da, who returned to the barracks, brought Huo Mingshan all the good news that everything was negotiated, and let him wait for the next day when he enters the city, and the prefect will welcome him with a festival gift. The two talked again. Long Da returned to his camp. Take out An Ruochen's letter and read it. The first official letter was about her mobilizing some people in the building, sending some outside, and bringing in some newcomers. This was to cover Aunt Lu's entry into Ziyun Building, and at the same time, she also took the opportunity to fight with everyone in the city. Contact temptation. She also said that she has not yet found the person who handed the note, but she has identified three suspicious persons. Two of them have found their residences, but no useful clues have been found yet. , and was never seen again. She instinctively felt that this person was the most suspicious, but this person was of medium height, with slender eyes and a round face, and his appearance was completely different from Mr. Min's. If there were no clues, she would not dare to jump to conclusions. In addition, she needs money and arranges a place to live in a safe contact in the city.

After reading it, Long Da burned the letter. He always knew that An Ruochen must have her own team of secret agents, and if she didn't take the initiative to tell him the details, he wouldn't ask. She learned well, and she firmly remembered and applied what he and Xie Gang taught. Xie Gang was not around, she was able to start work without moving the building, as if she was on her own.

Looking at the second letter, Long Da found that it was indeed all about the trivial matters of the marriage, and he had made a list of what he had to do on his side. Long Da copied a copy and ordered someone to hand it over to the postmen to send it back to the Dragon Mansion in the capital for his second brother Long Yue.

For the third letter, Long Da was looking forward to it very much, "the intention of only attacking and never retreating", what else could it be if it were not love words.

Taking it apart and looking at it, Long Da frowned, as expected, he couldn't think about his family's An Ruochen girl with ordinary thoughts. The letter told him to take care of military affairs and fulfill his duties as a fiancée, such as writing a letter to send a message saying that he missed her and so on. The point is the latter, ask him how much his salary is, the investigation needs money, but if she always withdraws it in the account room, it will arouse suspicion, so she hopes that Long Da will give her more on the grounds of dowry, or give her the salary or something Take care, if his personal money is not with him, then is there any way to solve her money shortage crisis.

Long Da'an lost his temper.

Only attack but never retreat! She is really daring to attack, money, money, money! I have the nerve to say that I am reserved!

Holding the letter in his hands, Long Da laughed, how could this girl please him so much, he was so happy. He was so happy that he really wanted her to copy "I'm Happy General Longteng" a hundred times and send it to him to stick in his tent.
