Rebirth of Tao Yao

Chapter 71 A piece of silence

looks like a girl...

The proprietress's words are actually to the point. No one who has carefully looked at Yan Li's appearance can deny that she is good-looking, and she has not inherited her father Yan Qing's tough looks at all, but has inherited the beauty of the former general's wife.This is rare in the border town, but because of his childhood experience, Yan Li always has a bit more fierceness than others, so no one dares to mention this feminine appearance.

The atmosphere in the kitchen froze all of a sudden, and the proprietress who spoke her heartfelt words quickly discovered Wen Ziran's sadness.She didn't quite understand what she said wrong, and she thought about her description carefully, and it seemed that there were some inappropriateness, so she explained: "I didn't mean that the little general is like a girl. The little general is brave and good at fighting. You all know, I just praised her for her good looks."

Wen Ziran still didn't express anything when she heard the words, she sat on the small stool where she sat while the fire was burning in the stove, her hands hugged her knees, looking thin and lonely.

The proprietress, who was only in her early thirties, looked at Wen Ziran like this, and suddenly began to wonder if she was getting old?Otherwise, she couldn't understand why the little girl was thinking at all——Little General Yan and Wen Ziran, she had already smelled vague ambiguity from them, and it was even tacit now, so she praised the little girl's Is the sweetheart wrong?Even if you use the wrong description, it's still a compliment!

In the kitchen, the conversation between the two of them reached a deadlock. No matter what the proprietress said, Wen Ziran didn't reply.In the small courtyard, Yan Li had just welcomed King Yan into the door, and all his impatience was hidden under his expressionless cold face.

King Yan is worthy of being the King of Yan. Even if he fell into such a dangerous and embarrassing situation just two days ago, he soon regained his former majesty after getting out of trouble.I don't know how he did it, but a group of guards appeared beside him, and Rou Jia, who had disappeared without a trace, also appeared, but the face of the little princess did not have the usual flamboyance, and instead looked calmer.

Yan Li's gaze didn't linger on Rou Jia, he bowed to King Yan, and then explained: "My father is still in a coma and cannot come out to greet her, please forgive me, my lord."

King Yan waved his hand indifferently to express his understanding, and then sighed a little apologetically: "Little general, you don't need to be too polite. Most of the incidents this time were caused by me, and I was also responsible for the serious injury of General Yan. How can I blame it again?" I came here this time, one is to see how General Yan is recovering from his injuries, and the other is to tell the little general that the Hu soldiers outside the south gate have dispersed."

At the beginning, there were thousands of Hu soldiers who went south to track King Yan and Wang Jia, which already accounted for more than half of the soldiers and horses of the bandits this time.Now it seems that these soldiers and horses have also been tricked into diverting the tiger away from the mountain. They went south to catch up with Wang Jia, but what they captured was a fake King Yan.Now that King Yan has officially appeared in the city, the defenders at the south gate naturally have no scruples. In addition, the real leader of the army, Prince Huo Da, is dead, so the Hu soldiers outside the south gate are naturally nothing to fear.

Yan Li was not worried at all that there would be another change at the South Gate, even the positions of the two sides should have been reversed, but now it was the Hu Bing who had been cut off from the rear.While thinking that he should send troops to hunt down these Hu soldiers, so as not to cause further losses to the surrounding villages and towns, he politely said to King Yan: "My lord is worried, my father is in the house, please move your lord."

Yan Li's words were not very polite, at least not as affectionate as the children of officials and eunuchs whom King Yan met when he was in Beijing.However, capable people don't like to speak soft words. After seeing Yan Li's illustrious military exploits with his own eyes, King Yan didn't criticize anything harshly.

He smiled, followed Yan Li into the door obediently.After a few words of gossip, King Yan seemed to have thought of something again, let Rou Jia out from the side of his body, and said: "Speaking of which, it was Rou Jia's fault that you were in danger outside the city before, and you insisted on dragging the little general out of the city to play. Those Heaven has thanked the little general for taking care of her, and seeing Roujia return safely, as a father, I also want to say thank you to the little general on her behalf."

King Yan thanked her, Rou Jia naturally couldn't be silent, she saluted Yan Li for the first time, and said: "Before, Rou Jia was reckless, thank you Brother Yan for taking care of me."

The cry of "Brother Yan" made Yan Li get goosebumps, and finally she couldn't help but stare at Rou Jia twice, but the eyes were not the eagerness of a teenager to see a beautiful girl, but rather a look of insanity Stay away.

Rou Jia obviously received this gaze, and her hands in her sleeves couldn't help tightening and tightening, her nails were making marks on her palms, so she couldn't resist not rolling her eyes at Yan Li in front of King Yan— ——She knew that her father and king saw that there were successors to the Yan family at Yanli, and even if they couldn't subdue the father and son for her own use, she still wanted to make friends.

If the two families want to get close, what is the easiest and most reliable way?Naturally, it is a marriage, forming a good relationship between Qin and Jin!

Roujia is very aware of this point, she has heard and seen a lot in the capital, and even she herself has been prepared for it a long time ago.However, when things came to an end, she was a little reluctant, and the person opposite seemed even more unwilling!

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

It has been almost a month since King Yan came to the border town. Before that, he just let his daughter go with Yan Li, but now he intends to take the initiative to make a match.Yan Li is not stupid, after setting aside the influence of her children's love, she can easily see what King Yan is thinking, but it's just up for grabs.

Yan Li didn't feel angry about this, because she and her father would not accept this anyway.

Ignoring the fact that King Yan pushed his daughter out, Yan Li just stared at Roujia without saying a word, and then brought King Yan into Yan Qing's cultivation room.At that time, General Yan was indeed in a coma, but maybe he had been comatose for a long time, maybe it was a little disturbed by the people coming and going this morning, and not long after King Yan arrived, Yan Qing also woke up.

Yan Li heaved a sigh of relief when she saw this, she just felt that her father woke up at the right time, otherwise she really didn't know whether she should reveal the news about the prince to King Yan.Fortunately, when Yan Qing woke up, someone was in charge. Yan Li quickly put aside his worries and fed his father breakfast and soup. over again.

After Yan Li finished speaking, the breakfast and soup were also finished.The seriously injured General Yan was relocated to lie down, and King Yan beside him hadn't had time to intervene except for a few words of concern.

Yan Qing was obviously more experienced than Yan Li, without Yan Li speaking clearly, he probably guessed what King Yan wanted to ask.Perhaps he had already guessed that this would happen, and he had already thought about how to deal with it. Yan Qing's eyes that slowly regained his composure only glanced at the room, and said: "A Li, as a father, I have something to say to the prince. You should take the people back first."

Yan Li was not surprised when he heard the words, and after agreeing, he retreated out with the soldiers and doctors in the room.

Seeing this, King Yan waved his hand, indicating that Rou Jia and the two guards following behind him also went out.However, the moment the door was closed, his eyes fell on Yan Li outside the door, he was a little confused as the only heir of the Yan family, why did Yan Qing avoid her when speaking?

As soon as the door was closed, the voices of the people inside became blurred. In addition, King Yan and the others seemed to deliberately lower their voices. Standing outside the door, unless they put their ears on the door, they would not be able to hear the people inside clearly. Say something.

With so many pairs of eyes staring at him, naturally no one dared to put their ears on the door panel, so waiting outside became boring.

Rou Jia only waited at the door for a moment, her eyes quickly shifted to Yan Li, she turned around a few times, and then suddenly reached out to grab the skirt of her clothes.In the end, it was naturally unsuccessful. The little princess's hand was blocked by Yan Li's raised arm, but she didn't feel annoyed at the sight, and grabbed Yan Li's arm and dragged him out of the house: "Let's go, go out, find someone I have something to say to you.”

Yan Li shook her arm in displeasure and broke away from Rou Jia's pull. In fact, except Wen Ziran, she rejected all physical contact.But thinking of the previous events, and Wen Ziran who was not seen in the room, she still consciously stepped out of the room.

Seeing this, Roujia curled her lips, but didn't say anything, and followed her out.

Yan Li walked out of the main room and was looking for Wen Ziran, her eyes quickly swept across the courtyard.Noticing that Rou Jia followed, she didn't look back, but just asked casually, "What did you want to ask me for?"

Wen Ziran was not seen in the courtyard, and the outside is not completely safe yet, obviously the guards at the gate of the courtyard will not let him out easily.Wen Ziran also had no reason to leave.As soon as Yan Li finished asking, he started to look for someone in this small yard, walking here and there without stopping for a moment, and he didn't seem to want to have a serious conversation.

Roujia was so angry that she turned pale with anger, but she still had to say something, and she couldn't even delay it.So she simply put aside her reserve, trotted a few steps to stand in front of Yan Li, looked at her with a frown and said, "I have something very important to tell you, even if it's out of courtesy, you can't stand here and have a good time with me." speak?"

Yan Li didn't find anyone in the yard, and was about to go to the kitchen to take a look, but he paused when he was stopped.She was not in such a hurry to find Wen Ziran, but when she thought of Roujia calling "Brother Yan" before, she felt a little chilly.

Shaking his head, he walked away from Roujia with a long leg: "If you have anything to say, just say it, I can hear you, and I didn't stop you from saying it."

Rou Jia looked at her indifferent appearance, but in her heart she just felt that Yan Li was even more annoying.She was furious, but she could only keep up with Yan Li when she saw that Yan Li was about to leave. When she followed up with the kitchen, she saw no one around and finally said: "My father intends to marry you and me, but I don't want to marry you." Like you, go and tell your father, you must never agree to this marriage."

The little princess's words seemed to be unreasonable, but in fact, she had seen that Yan Li would not like this marriage, and objection was also the other party's choice.It was just because of her own pride that she didn't say the phrase "you don't like me either", but directly asked for it, which would also make her daughter's family lose face.

He just wanted to say something, but he didn't get the response he deserved, and the kitchen was inexplicably quiet.
