Until the celebration banquet was over, Wen Fei was still in a daze.

She came out of Chengde Hall with two imperial edicts in her arms, and she didn't respond to being bumped.It wasn't until another person bumped into her that a hand suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her aside, Wen Fei, who was in a daze, came back to his senses.

As soon as she raised her eyes, she was stared at again. It was the young man who secretly stared at her before. I don't know what kind of enmity they have?

Before Wen Fei could figure it out, he heard a deep voice from beside him: "I'm back to my senses."

The three words woke Wen Fei up, and reminded her of the fact that she was pulled away just now, so when she looked back, it was the little general's uncle Taiwei who was pulling her.Instinctively getting closer, she looked slightly relaxed, and called out: "Uncle."

The middle-aged man in a black official robe had a straight back, and his military temperament could not be concealed even with a toga with long sleeves. His cold and serious face showed a bit of warmth when he saw Wen Fei.He raised his hand and patted Wen Fei's shoulder, and smiled at her: "This battle was fought beautifully, and His Majesty has a lot of trust in you, so you should be happy, why are you so distraught?"

Wen Fei wanted to say that with his status, how could he marry a wife?But there are eyes and ears everywhere in the palace, she dare not speak.What's more, after enduring the words that almost blurted out, she immediately realized that her identity was unknown to others, but the Taiwei uncle who covered it up for her with his own hands knew it clearly.

In an instant, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Wen Fei's back, and he also realized how inappropriate his previous behavior was.She blinked her eyes immediately, and added: "It's nothing, it's just that although this battle was a great victory, many soldiers died. I waited for the victory to be appointed as the Marquis, but the soldiers who died in the battle were shrouded in horse leather. , can't even go home..."

Originally, he was just looking for an excuse, but as he talked, Wen Fei actually became a little sad.Even though she had never actually been on the battlefield, she who had accepted the little general's memory clearly remembered the cruelty of the battlefield, and felt a little embarrassed for a while.

Qi Taiwei originally just reminded his nephew, but after hearing what she said, he couldn't help empathizing, and said with a sigh: "I still have some money, you can take it later, and pay some compensation to the soldiers who died in the battle."

When Wen Fei heard that he was willing to ask for it, he hurriedly waved his hands and said, "No need, uncle, His Majesty has rewarded me a lot, and I'll just share it."

As the two talked, their attitudes gradually became more natural, and when they left the palace side by side, there was no difference.After stepping out of the palace gate, Wen Fei finally couldn't hold back and asked, "Do you know who the man who stared at me before was? I don't remember any grievances with him."

Qi Taiwei's expression was a bit complicated when he heard the words, and he took a deep look at Wen Fei before saying: "That's Chu Ang, Liulang of the Chu family."

Wen Fei was startled when he heard it, and then subconsciously looked down at the imperial decree in his hand—the marriage decree just received, the girl who gave her marriage seemed to be the daughter of the Chu family, could it be that Chu Ang is her fiancée's brother?

Thinking of this, she raised her head to look at her uncle again, and the latter's bright eyes told her that her guess was right.

Now Wen Fei felt a little embarrassed, she raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, but she couldn't say anything.It wasn't until he got on the horse and walked side by side with his uncle that Wen Fei finally plucked up the courage to ask, "Uncle, can you tell me about this girl from the Chu family?"

Qi Taiwei's face remained calm, and he rode on the horse and looked ahead: "I don't know about the girl's family, but the Chu family is not easy to provoke." He spoke with a slightly heavy tone, but he also told what he knew. Come on.

The Chu family belongs to the Zanying family, and they were officials in the previous dynasty, so they are completely incomparable with new relatives like the Qi family.Moreover, the Chu family and the royal family are also closely related. The wife of the head of the previous generation was the princess of the royal family, and the wife of the head of the current generation is still the princess.It can be said that the Chu family and the royal family have already been bound together, and together with the outstanding members of the Chu family, they really play an important role in the court.

Speaking of this, Qi Taiwei wanted to sigh.Looking at the marriage gift, he knew that His Majesty really loved and trusted Wen Fei, and choosing such a family of wives would also help her.It's a pity that things backfired. The stronger the Chu family is, the more difficult it is to deal with it.

Retiring the engagement or something seems impossible at the moment!

****************************************************************************

Wen Fei's General's Mansion and Taiwei's Mansion are only separated by a wall. In fact, Wen Fei has always lived in Taiwei's Mansion before.Her parents died early, and she only had two relatives, her uncle and aunt. When her uncle found her, her aunt had both entered the palace, and the two of them were dependent on each other in those years.

Therefore, the relationship between uncle and nephew is very close, and this point has not changed much even after Qi Taiwei got married and had children.It can be said that Wen Fei was taught by Qi Taiwei, and it is precisely because of his own teaching that Qi Taiwei knows how talented Wen Fei is in military affairs.So when Wen Fei showed that he was unwilling to be ordinary, Qi Taiwei was also reluctant to let her be trapped in the back house with her amazing talent.

Taiwei Qi has grown from a commoner to an official to a third official, and he is not a stickler at all.He was ambitious, and he also had a heart that was unwilling to be ordinary, so when the uncle and nephew made up their minds, they simply cheated.

Now that Wen Fei thinks of this, he can't help but say a bold word for the uncle and nephew, but she is also unwilling to let her be trapped in the back house.

The horse stomped through the bluestone streets of Chang'an, Kyoto, until they arrived at two adjacent luxury mansions, and they made an appointment to have dinner at the Taiwei's mansion together, and Wen Fei parted ways with his uncle.

She went back to her general's mansion alone. The servants in the mansion hadn't seen their master for more than a year, and they were very pleasantly surprised to see her return home.

A porter stepped forward to lead the horse, and the steward led his servants out to greet him.Wen Fei casually threw the helmet in his hand to the servants who came up, and then ordered: "Prepare some hot water, I want to take a bath."

On this scorching hot day, marching on the road is not only hard work, but what is even more unbearable is that it is hard to freshen up because of the hot sweat every day.During these three days of traveling, Wen Fei could only wipe himself off with cold water while camping at night. Although he didn't smell much on his body, there was always a smell of sweat lingering around him.When she got home, she didn't care about anything else. Taking a bath first was the most important thing.

Life in ancient times was not as convenient as modern ones, but fortunately, with Wen Fei's current status, there was no shortage of servants to serve him.Not long after she gave the order, someone came to report that the hot water had been prepared and it was time to take a bath.

Taking off her armor and stepping into the bathroom, the little general has been used for many years, no one will come to disturb her at this time.

Wen Fei was still a little worried, so he checked the doors and windows of the bathroom again, and then took off his clothes and stepped into the bathtub.

When the warm water covered his shoulders, Wen Fei relaxed and leaned against the wall of the tub, and the exhaustion accumulated from the march seemed to erupt in an instant.Before he knew it, the person who had been thinking about cleaning fell asleep leaning against the tub.

Wen Fei didn't sleep for a long time, but after falling asleep, she had a dream.

After waking up from the dream, she was still leaning on the bathtub, looking up at the wooden roof above, and couldn't recover for a while—she remembered, remembered Huyue Gorge, remembered General Wen, and remembered just being killed. A girl from the Chu family who gave her a marriage.

It was a novel she had read before time travel, but the main character was not the little general, more precisely, the little general could only be regarded as the background board.Even though she is the jewel of the empire, the unparalleled God of War, it is a pity that she died young.

Played in the war, became a marquis at the age of 21, and became an extremely powerful minister for three years, but no one was jealous of her.Because the little general defeated Beiman in the last battle, he was assassinated on the way back to Beijing, and was ambushed in Huyue Gorge and shot in the back.The poisoned arrow in the back killed her seven days later, and the young star fell. No matter how much the emperor mourned for her, she would not be able to bring back her fresh life.

As for Chu Xi, that is another identity. She is the heroine of the story, but she is not enviable.Because Wen Fei, who has never read Tanmei, read halfway through the book, only to belatedly realize that it turned out to be a Danmei novel!
