Zheng Xingye begged his grandfather and grandma in the capital, and it took him more than two months to get the winter wages for the Wu'an County border guards.

But even after spending so much energy, after the money was divided among various people, only 50% actually fell into Zheng Xingye's hands.

Zheng Xingye was satisfied, because with these wages, his soldiers would be able to survive the coming year.

Winter was coming soon, and all parties could not delay the purchase for a moment. As soon as they arrived at the inn, Zheng Xingye asked his servants to start packing their luggage.

Walking into the house, Zheng Xingye saw Zheng Ke'er with a wrinkled little face, full of gloom.

He handed the candied haws bought along the road to Zheng Ke'er: "Ke'er, weren't you so excited a few days ago, why haven't you even left the house recently?"

In line with the principle that no matter how bad the mood is, one cannot feel sorry for the food, Zheng Keer bit down a candied haws.

"Brother, I like a son-in-law, but he doesn't want to be with me no matter what."

"He doesn't want it to be his loss. When we return to Wu'an County, my brother will call all the soldiers in the military camp to pick for you."

Zheng Ke'er was a little depressed, bit another candied haws, and said dullly: "Brother, I will never fall in love with someone else as much as I fall in love with him in the future."

It's not that he can't find someone else, but Zheng Ke'er will never care so much for one person again.

Zheng Xingye is extremely bad at dealing with such matters of love and affection.

But now that his wife is away, he can only do the work of comforting his sister:

"If you really like him, my brother will take advantage of the night to kidnap him for you tonight, hide him in the military pay, and bring him back to Wu'an County."

"When we get to our own territory, why don't you just do whatever you want?"

Zheng Keer raised his head and glanced at Zheng Xingye.

I feel that the two of them are truly brothers and sisters, and they think of everything together.

His heart moved slightly, but Zheng Keer still refused: "No, the capital is where he should stay."

Most lambs that leave the grassland do not survive well.

Zheng Keer felt that Xu Mingliang would not be happy after leaving the capital.

Consciously discussing this issue with a boss like Zheng Xingye was a mistake. Zheng Keer immediately jumped to the topic and said, "Brother, how about entering the palace today?"

"The salary has been approved. You and I must set off back to Wu'an County tonight."

"Are you leaving so soon?"

Zheng Xingye explained the whole story in a low voice: "The late emperor and the prince suddenly woke up. The situation in the capital is very chaotic. You and I are coming from Wu'an County. In order to avoid getting into trouble, the sooner we leave, the better."

The sudden deadline made Zheng Keer feel confused.

Zheng Keer jumped out of the window and rode out of the inn.

The attendant called over: "Where does Ke'er often go these days?"

"The girl never lets my subordinates follow me, but when I see her, I always head towards the Duke's Mansion."

In the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, there is only one Xu Minglang staying in the capital.

Thinking of Xu Minghuai, who was currently under his command, and the various people he saw when he came to Beijing this time, Zheng Xingzhi's head tightened.

Zheng Ke'er is young and ignorant. Zheng Xingye hopes that Xu Minglang will keep his duty and not do things that put Zheng Ke'er in a dilemma.

Zheng Ke'er, who left the inn, did not go to Zhen Guo Gong's Mansion. Instead, he repeated his old tricks and blocked the place where Xu Minglang had to pass when he returned to his home.

It was a bit early today, and Zheng Keer waited for nearly half an hour before seeing the familiar carriage.

The whip on his waist was pulled out to frighten the horses. Zheng Keer looked at Ah Quan with a somewhat fierce look, but when he spoke, his nature was revealed: "I want to see him, please come down quickly."

Ah Quan was naturally not afraid of the whip, but Xu Minglang in the carriage did not refuse, and Ah Quan actually got out of the carriage.

In fact, to be honest, if his master's whereabouts were so easy to trace, they would have died countless times.

Zheng Keer generously raised his hand towards Ah Quan: "Last time I was drunk and my behavior was a bit excessive. I hope you can forgive me."

The master of the capital never apologized to his servants, so when Zheng Keer said these words, Ah Quan was completely stunned.

Looking at Ah Quan's silly look, Zheng Ke'er grinned, with two shallow dimples appearing on her cheeks.

I am not afraid of this so-called big difference between men and women. Anyway, this person is gone today, and we are a family. If we don't, there will be no chance to meet again in the future.

After opening the car door and looking at Xu Minglang sitting in the carriage, Zheng Keer forgot what he wanted to say again.

It was rare that Xu Mingliang didn't chase people away immediately: "Miss Zheng, please sit down."

After Zheng Ke'er sat firmly, Xu Minglang patted the carriage, and Ah Quan drove the carriage again, traveling around the capital.

Secretly giving Xu Minglang a contemptuous look, Zheng Ke'er felt that Xu Minglang's attitude was much better today: "You can call me Ke'er, that's what everyone close to me calls me."

"I'm not close to the girl."

After saying these words, Zheng Keer understood that the Xu Minglang in front of him had not changed.

He still wanted to push her thousands of miles away as always.

Even though she felt a little embarrassed, Zheng Keer still chose to suppress her emotions: "Xu Mingliang, I'm going back to Wu'an County."

His eyes were twinkling as always, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly to show that Xu Minglang heard what he said.

Xu Mingliang knew earlier than Zheng Keer when they would leave the capital.

Water shimmered in her eyes, and Zheng Keer used her sleeves to wipe away the unfulfilled tears.

After hesitating for a while, he took out a sachet from the small pocket on his waist.

He looked down at the pattern that had taken half a month to embroider and was still crookedly embroidered, and then looked at Xu Minglang, who was exquisite in every detail from top to bottom.

Zheng Keer suddenly felt like retreating.

Holding the sachet tightly with both hands, she finally chose to hand it to Xu Minglang.

With his eyes closed tightly, Zheng Keer said:

"Xu Minglang, my sister-in-law said that if you like someone, you should work hard to win it. If you don't win, you should consider it as God's will not allow it."

"Xu Minglang, I admire you. I fell in love with you at first sight. If you are willing, I can ask my brother and sister-in-law to come to your house and say goodbye to me."

Standing up from his seat and holding his hands towards Zheng Keer, Xu Minglang said the third sentence of the day:

"I wish the girl everything goes smoothly and she can find her husband as soon as possible."

Xu Minglang lowered his head, not daring to look at Zheng Keer, which made Zheng Keer feel heartbroken.

Even after hearing such words of rejection, Zheng Keer still couldn't let go: "Xu Mingliang, I am fifteen years old, and I will wait for you in Wu'an County for three years."

Not daring to wait for Xu Mingliang's answer, Zheng Keer got off the carriage and got on the horse that had been following the carriage.

"drive."

The riding whip was waving, and the fiery red cloak was the only bright spot in the capital city in late autumn.

Xu Minglang straightened his bent waist, looked at the sachet that fell on the ground, picked it up, patted it, and placed the board squarely on the small wooden table.

The carriage turned and the sachet was thrown to the ground again.

Xu Minglang pursed his lips slightly, and finally chose to bend down and pick up the sachet.

After a pause, Xu Mingliang put the sachet into his sleeve.

"Master, I think Miss Zheng is very good. Why don't you agree?"

"When you meet some people, it's a mistake, and if you force them to do something, you make more mistakes."

Xu Minglang had only seen one Zheng Keer in his life, who performed the color red so arrogantly and brightly, and expressed his love so openly and enthusiastically.

The capital city is as silent as a pool of stagnant water, and it is difficult to see such brightness under the conspiracy.

Xu Minglang's heart moved.

But Xu Minglang will not choose to embark on an absolutely wrong path just because he is tempted.

Xu Minglang, no!
