Please marry me [Interstellar]

After Zhuo Yiyi expressed that she was unwilling to jump into the fire pit of the Generalissimo's mansion, the living door god sent by His Majesty the Emperor did not force her, but just sat back in the car with her again.

When the car started, the living goalkeeper actually said, "Go to the hotel."

Zhuo Yiyi still maintained her calm expression, but her heart went mad for an instant, so if she refused to live in the Grand Marshal's Mansion, she could only live in a hotel.

But she calmed down very quickly. In fact, the hotel is a good place. Although it is a bit messy with people coming and going, it still allows her to stay quietly without being too conspicuous.

After all, even if she is willing to be the first bird for His Majesty the Emperor, she also hopes that the number of missions that her early bird will take out as few as possible.

Not long after, the hotel arrived.Zhuo Yiyi took a closer look, it was really inconspicuous enough.

The place where the car stopped was not in front of the best hotel in the Imperial Capital Star. From the looks of it, it seemed that it couldn't be squeezed into the top ten hotels in the Imperial Capital Star.But it's not very dilapidated, this place looks much cleaner and tidy than the Grand Marshal's Mansion just now.

It's just that as soon as Zhuo Yiyi got out of the car, she felt that her wish to be inconspicuous was shattered.

Because she just passed the identity chip identification in front of the hotel, she immediately called a person and shouted: "Major Zhuo is here!"

Immediately, a large group of living people rushed over, bowed to her, and shouted in unison: "Welcome Major Zhuo!"

Facing this kind of old-fashioned welcoming ceremony, Zhuo Yiyi couldn't recover for a while. In this day and age, it is a miracle that there are still hotels that recruit so many living people to work.After all, the wages of living people are very high, and if machines are used instead, the operating costs can be reduced by more than half.

But as soon as she turned around, Zhuo Yiyi saw that the living door god sent by His Majesty the Emperor actually left without saying a word.Zhuo Yiyi had no choice but to enter the hotel surrounded by a group of people.

Seeing that this hotel is really a model of being consistent from outside to inside, looking at the lobby of the hotel which is not much different in style from the outside, Zhuo Yiyi thinks that perhaps it is time to organize those hypocrites to come in and learn what is being consistent from outside to inside.

The hotel manager is a middle-aged man who looks like he has experienced some wind and rain.After seeing Zhuo Yiyi, he expressed his welcome to Zhuo Yiyi's stay in the hotel without being humble or overbearing.

At the same time, he also stated that the hotel has already emptied all other guests. If Zhuo Yiyi is not satisfied with the room, he can bring it up at any time, and the construction team is on standby at any time.

Zhuo Yiyi's expression remained unchanged, but she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. It seemed that her wish to be a few times less early bird was shattered.But since that's the case, she doesn't worry about it anymore.

Anyway...

Anyway, he is Jiang Li's older brother, so things like gaining favorability must be done sooner or later. If that's the case, it's better to do it sooner rather than later, so let's start now.

Under the leadership of the hotel manager, Zhuo Yiyi visited some of the best rooms in this hotel, and finally chose the one on the lower floor.

After Zhuo Yiyi confirmed that she was staying in the room, the hotel manager and a bunch of living waiters immediately receded from her.

Seeing that everyone had left, Zhuo Yiyi took a brief shower and changed her clothes before calling her father nervously.

After the call was made, someone picked it up quickly, and the image of her father was immediately reproduced through video simulation, which made Zhuo Yiyi even more nervous.

And when his father saw that it was her, his frown immediately relaxed: "Yi Yi, I was thinking that you should call back too."

When Zhuo Yiyi saw her father say this, the guilt hidden in her heart suddenly rolled up: "Father...I'm sorry for making you worry."

The father just smiled: "You are my daughter, what is there to be sorry for?"

This made Zhuo Yiyi a little unaccustomed to it. Originally, her father was always very strict. Even if she did a good job, she could only get her father's unsatisfactory evaluation.If she made the slightest mistake, she would always be severely reprimanded.

Zhuo Yiyi was a little unaccustomed to her father's change of attitude, and her father said again: "It seems that I was too strict with you in the past."

Zhuo Yiyi was about to respond, but was stopped by her father: "It's good to get used to it slowly, you grow up, I'm old too, even His Majesty the Emperor..."

Speaking of His Majesty the Emperor, my father shook his head with a smile, and then continued: "When will your letter of appointment and military orders come down? At home...I have prepared them for you."

Zhuo Yiyi knew that his father was talking about the possibility that His Majesty the Emperor would let him lead an army to quell the Tang family's rebellion.But now His Majesty the Emperor did not give any information about this, so she could only say: "His Majesty the Emperor has not appointed me yet."

Father understood: "Well, I'm a little impatient."

Then there was a pause, and when he spoke again, he was no longer as relaxed as before: "Yi Yi, this battle is dangerous, and it's your first time on the battlefield, no matter what, you have to be careful, you know?"

Zhuo Yiyi lowered her head and replied, "Yes, father, I must be careful."

I only heard my father sigh: "If... If you don't win, as long as you come back, everything will be fine. You must remember this, you know."

Zhuo Yiyi was speechless and just nodded.No matter what, my father was so worried about himself.

After saying these words, her father didn't mention the matter anymore, but asked a few more questions about whether she was still used to living in the imperial capital, etc. Zhuo Yiyi also answered them one by one.

After the father asked the question, he suddenly fell into silence. Just when Zhuo Yiyi thought his father was going to hang up the phone, his father suddenly said, "Happy birthday, Yiyi."

Hearing this sentence, Zhuo Yiyi was a little dazed. As long as she could remember, she had never celebrated her birthday, and her father had never said happy birthday to her.She often cared about this when she was young, and felt that her father had no concern for her other than strict requirements.Later, as I got older, I didn't care about such things anymore, but if I mentioned birthdays, I would inevitably feel a little sentimental after all.

Seeing that Zhuo Yiyi didn't speak, his father just continued, "Yiyi, I know you have been envious of your sister being able to celebrate her birthday every year since you were a child, and the family will hold a birthday party for her, and invite some relatives and friends to celebrate together. It's your birthday, but I never even said happy birthday to you."

"I know you hate me because of this, and feel that I never cared about you. I also know that every time you finish your homework and see your sister's birthday party, you are sad, but since you were a child, I didn't allow you to cry, So even if you cry, you have to hide from me and cry secretly in the room."

Being mentioned by her father, Zhuo Yiyi couldn't help but feel sad. Thinking about those times, she was really sad. At that time, she only felt that she might not be her father's biological daughter at all, otherwise how could she be so cruel to herself.

Seeing that Zhuo Yiyi was still silent, his father continued: "I only have you as my daughter, you are sad, you are sad, why don't I feel sorry for you!"

At this point, my father seemed to be unable to restrain himself, so he had to stop.

After a long time, it seemed that he finally calmed down a little, and then he continued: "But I only have a daughter like you, and the burden of the Zhuo family will be handed over to you sooner or later. The whole Zhuo family seems to be on the same page now, but As long as they show a little bit of weakness, they can immediately turn into wolves and eat you to the stomach, leaving no bones left! What's more, there are a large group of people who have long been looking forward to the Zhuo family's accident!"

Her father's voice seemed to be a little choked, but Zhuo Yiyi didn't dare to raise her head, and only heard her father continue: "At the beginning, I just thought that I would be stricter with you so that you can get used to it early and take over Zhuo Yiyi in the future." When you’re at home, it’s somewhat easier. What’s more, your cousin hasn’t been diagnosed with that kind of disease at that time, and I only hope that she can help you by your side in the future, so it’s a general request for the two of you.”

The father seemed to be moved by emotions, and for a while, he seemed to be unable to finish his words: "But when she was only four years old, she was diagnosed with such a disease, let alone cured, even whether she can live past 20 years old is a matter of concern." Question. Since then, thousands of pairs of eyes from all over the Zhuo family have been staring at you. So since then, she can play every day, celebrate birthdays, and hold parties. And you , I can only look at it once or twice with envy, and I will hurry to finish the homework I assigned to you."

Zhuo Yiyi lowered her head, tears had already dripped down her cheeks to the floor, and disappeared into the automatic cleaning system of the floor, her throat had already been choked, and she could barely squeeze out two words: "Father..."

"Fortunately, the princess came to our house later, so you can have a companion. Only when you are sad, can someone accompany you..."

At this point, the father paused again, but quickly continued: "I know that as you and Your Highness the Princess grow older, you have different thoughts about each other. I can see that Your Highness the Princess is sincere. Treat you, and you have her in mind."

Having said that, my father sighed, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Look, it turns out that when people get old, they talk too much."

Zhuo Yiyi choked again: "Father..."

"Yi Yi, in front of me, in front of me in the future, cry as you please. Just in front of others, don't show your weakness." Up to this point, the father's voice had obvious tremors.

"Okay, okay, that's it for today. You should be tired too, go and rest." After finishing his sentence, his father hung up the phone without waiting for Zhuo Yiyi's response.

Seeing her father hang up the phone, Zhuo Yiyi knew that her father didn't want to cry in front of her.I went to the bathroom to wash away my tears, but looking at the red eyes and nose in the mirror, it really seemed like I was back when I was a child.

After a long time, Zhuo Yiyi managed to calm down her emotions, but the room service knocked on the door again, saying that someone had delivered something.

When Zhuo Yiyi opened the door, she saw two cakes and two bouquets of flowers from the room service.

The room attendant seemed to have been instructed to do something, and after handing over the things to Zhuo Yiyi, he immediately turned around and left the room.

There are two bouquets of flowers, one red and one white, both are roses.The two cakes are generally the same, they are exactly the same, and you can tell at a glance that they were bought from the same store.

He took out the card inserted on the red rose, and saw that it read: Yi Yi, happy birthday.It was Gu Jiangli who left the signature.Turn the card over, but there are still a few lines of small words, which read: Her Royal Highness said that you have always wanted a piece of birthday cake like that when you were a child, so this time I just gave it to you.But I chose the flowers for Her Royal Highness, there are nine flowers in total (I don’t know how to look up the words of red roses), remember to thank me next time we meet! "Only a small green dot is left for the signature.

After reading it, Zhuo Yiyi couldn't help but smile a little. Looking at the cake, it really looked familiar.After thinking about it carefully, it turned out that it was the birthday cake prepared for her cousin at home when it was her birthday.At that time, my cousin had already run away from home for many years, and she never heard from her.However, the family still prepared a birthday party for her in such a grand manner. Thinking about that time, I was probably sad and jealous.

It was only when her father mentioned it on the phone today that she realized that the reason why the family was so tolerant and loving to that cousin.It's just that so many years have passed, and her own 20th birthday has long passed, and she doesn't know if her cousin is still alive.

Thinking of this, when I looked at the cake, I couldn't help feeling mixed feelings.

Carefully put away the card that Gu Jiangli wrote to him, and then went to pick up the card on the white rose.

When I opened it, I saw that it said: Happy Birthday, and the name of the father and the name of the ghostwriter were written on the signature.

Looking at this small card, Zhuo Yiyi's eyes began to heat up again.It's just that, after all, she was taught not to cry easily since she was a child. She has cried once just now, and she is too embarrassed to cry again at this time.So I just put this card away carefully together with Gu Jiangli's one.

Zhuo Yiyi took out a small piece from each of the two cakes, and originally wanted to light the candles by herself, but she felt that it was boring to do so alone.

But when the cake was placed in front of him, his eyes could not help but drift to those few candles.

In the end, I still gave up and opened the candle box that came with the cake.I saw two were slightly thicker, and the other five were slightly thinner.There is even an explanation attached to the box, the two thick ones represent ten years old, and the thin one is one year old.

Zhuo Yiyi looked at the two thick and five thin candles, a total of seven candles, and began to sigh in her heart that time passed so fast, and she was already 25 years old.I think that when I graduated from university and entered the military academy, I was only 20 years old. In the blink of an eye, half of my age at the beginning of this word has passed.

I lit a candle for myself, and then sang a happy birthday song to myself in a low voice.Zhuo Yiyi, who had never done these things before, couldn't help but feel a little awkward, but luckily there was no one else here.

When blowing out the candle, Zhuo Yiyi only felt her current mood, and she didn't know whether it was happiness or grievance, but the tears really started to fall uncontrollably.

After eating the two small pieces of cake, Zhuo Yiyi carefully stored the rest in the food preservation machine provided in the room, so that the next time she eats it, it will still be fresh.

After eating the cake, the room service knocked on the door and delivered a birthday package.Zhuo Yiyi guessed from the movements of the living waiters who kept moving their ankles and knees that these people might have been waiting at the door for a long time.

After roughly guessing why they refused to come in, Zhuo Yiyi instantly felt that she really didn't have the courage to look at the expressions of those waiters, and at the same time, she was very dissatisfied with the sound insulation effect of this hotel.

I immediately went to the hotel manager and asked him to help find the construction team that was on call at any time to do soundproofing for this room.

The hotel manager was a little puzzled by this: "Major Zhuo, although our hotel is not one of the best, it doesn't mean that the rooms are not soundproofed. Look, is there any misunderstanding?"

Zhuo Yiyi sighed, if the soundproofing of the guest room was fine, then why did the waiters at the door not come in for a long time.

Zhuo Yiyi went to the door to check, only to find that no matter what sound insulation measures were taken on the walls of the hotel, the door was a simple wooden door like in ancient times!What kind of noise can this be!

Immediately asked the construction team to come over and change the door immediately.The hotel manager also went to look at the door, first with a look of suspicion, but soon changed into a look of shock.

Then the hotel manager immediately bowed in front of Zhuo Yiyi and apologized: "I'm really sorry, Major Zhuo, because the rooms on the lower floors have not been lived in for a long time, so... I'm really sorry, I'm really sorry, I'll find the construction team right away."

Seeing the hotel manager bow back and forth at ninety degrees, Zhuo Yiyi felt dizzy.So he quickly supported the hotel manager and told him to go to the construction team quickly, and stop patronizing and bowing here.

The hotel manager hurried out, and Zhuo Yiyi asked him to take those waiters away as well, she really didn't have the courage to stay in the same room with a few people.

After everyone left, Zhuo Yiyi sat on the sofa, feeling a little headache.I celebrated my birthday for the first time today, received a birthday cake and a birthday card from my father, and then cried for a while, but was overheard, what kind of luck is this!

After waiting for a long time, the construction team did not arrive, but the order from His Majesty the Emperor came.

This time the decree made it very clear that she was required to go to Qinzheng Hall for an audience.

Zhuo Yiyi didn't bring any clothes when she came out from the Zhuo family, and it's understandable that she didn't change clothes when she came back from a long voyage.But now she is going to the Palace of Qinzheng for an audience, presumably the Prime Minister, Marshal and others will be there, how can she just pass by like this.

Fortunately, there was still some time left before the time set in the decree, Zhuo Yiyi only hoped that she could find a suitable dress at this time.

But now she is a major general of the empire, if she goes to see her, she must wear a military uniform.However, things like military uniforms are really troublesome, and ordinary shops are forbidden to sell them.

When Zhuo Yiyi was anxious, Xiaolu unexpectedly appeared bouncing around, holding a box in her hand.

Xiaolu handed the box in front of Zhuo Yiyi, and said, "Thank you quickly, I have traveled so far to bring you the clothes myself."

Zhuo Yiyi took the box, opened it and saw that it was a set of military uniform, so she quickly thanked Xiaolu, but she did not forget to ask who asked her to send it.

Xiaolu replied angrily: "You still said! It was Her Royal Highness who insisted that I send it to you in person, and said that I would never ask someone else to hand it over. Who knew that you would have to live in a hotel so hard to find, but let me take care of it." run!"

Although it was clear for a long time that Gu Jiangli must have found Xiaolu to send it to him after he knew that he was going to have an audience.But after Xiaolu personally confirmed this matter, Zhuo Yiyi still felt extremely happy, and a faint sweet taste radiated from the bottom of her heart.

Gu Jiangli also left a note in the box, saying that it was just a failed one when he sewed Zhuo Yiyi's graduation gift for Zhuo Yiyi, because the stitches on the cuffs were a little crooked.But after she came to the imperial capital, she had already changed everything, and it just came in handy, so I entrusted Xiaolu to send it to her.

I went to the Hall of Qinzheng to have an audience, and sure enough, I saw both the Prime Minister and the Marshal there.It's just that the atmosphere seemed much more peaceful than she had imagined, and she didn't see any signs of intense "discussion".

His Majesty the Emperor saw that she had arrived, and directly ordered someone to read out his handbook.Directly appoint her as the counter-insurgency commander, and let her lead the Zhuo family's fleet to set off to counter-insurgency immediately.

This process was short and direct, beyond Zhuo Yiyi's expectation, but she still immediately saluted and accepted the order, expressing that she would live up to His Majesty's high expectations.

After finishing speaking, Zhuo Yiyi thought that she would have to wait for the Prime Minister and Marshal to send two more people to accompany her.But who knew that the prime minister and the marshal had no intention of speaking at all, but His Majesty the Emperor directly asked her to meet His Royal Highness the Princess before she left.

Leaving Qinzheng Palace with some doubts, he came to the gate of the palace where Gu Jiangli was temporarily staying through the fast transmission system in the palace again.

This time, he didn't see Gu Jiangli, but only saw Xiaolu with a dissatisfied face.

As soon as Xiaolu saw her approaching, she immediately began to complain: "Why are you so slow, Your Royal Highness has been waiting for you for a long time!"

Gu Jiangli was not far from the entrance of the palace. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he also came out. He happened to hear Xiaolu say this, and immediately became shy, with two blushes on his face, which further accentuated his snow-like skin. Come.

Zhuo Yiyi also saw Gu Jiangli, and hurried forward, but she didn't know what to say, so she could only stammer: "Jiangli... I... His Majesty sent me to suppress the rebellion..."

Gu Jiangli lowered his head and responded softly: "Well, I...wait for your return."

Zhuo Yiyi remembered what her father said about the danger of this battle, and felt a little uncomfortable for a moment: "Jiang Li, if...if..."

Gu Jiangli knew what she was thinking, so before she finished speaking, he said, "If you don't come back, I'll wait here until you come back."

After saying this, Gu Jiangli didn't care about his shyness, stepped forward and hugged Zhuo Yiyi gently, and whispered in her ear: "You must come back."

Zhuo Yiyi also hugged Zhuo Yiyi back, and whispered in her ear: "I will definitely come back."
