Quick Wear: Saving the Heroine Isn’t Too Easy!
Chapter 13 The Heroine and the Stupid General 2
"I heard that Wen Ning has been close to Lao Wu recently. He might be in these albums."
The emperor handed the album to Wen Ning, and deliberately found a man who was more handsome than the fifth prince in the album, and put the fifth prince's album at the bottom.
How could he not know what Lao Wu was thinking? He was definitely trying to use Wen Yatou. It just depended on what choice Wen Yatou made.
Wen Ning took the album and started to look at it. Since he couldn't refuse, he didn't struggle.
She started looking at the pictures one by one, trying to find someone in the album who could fight against Xiao Ren.
"This is the young master of the Ministry of Personnel, who has a lively personality."
Every time Wen Ning looked at a painting, the Queen would give an explanation.
Wen Ning: I remember in the book that the Minister of Personnel was Xiao Ren's man. This man is not good enough.
"This is the legitimate son of the censor, and he has a gentle and refined personality."
Wen Ning: In the novel, this person seemed to be against Xiao Ren's idea of becoming the crown prince. In the end, Xiao Ren executed his entire clan for treason. No, no, no. Although he is a friendly party, he is too weak.
Wen Ning looked at the album slowly. The Queen said she was tired and leaned on the Emperor's arms.
Hey, I have never seen such a handsome man. The male protagonist Xiao Ren is not as handsome as him. Wen Ning couldn't help but stare at him in a daze.
The Queen saw Wen Ning looking at a painting for a long time, not flipping through the album next to him, so she leaned over to take a look.
It is indeed good-looking.
"This is the grandson of the state guardian general, Gu Xici. When Gu Xici was a child, his parents died in battle, leaving only the two of them."
The Queen introduced Gu Xici's life to Wen Ning.
"Aunt Jiang, can you continue?"
Gu Xici, why did the uneasiness after entering the book disappear when she heard this name? Hearing this name made people feel particularly comfortable. She remembered that Gu Xici mainly appeared in the later part of the plot.
Gu Xici led his soldiers to defeat the State of Chu, which forced the State of Chu to quickly send a princess to marry.
Having read the novel, she knew that Gu Xici was a woman disguised as a man. Because she was the only descendant of the Gu family, she had to disguise herself as a man to inherit the Gu family's Black Armor Army.
How can a woman be so beautiful? The important thing is, shield, shield, shield, here she comes.
"Gu Xici has been in the military camp since he was a child, and is now in the northern border defending against the attack of the Chu State. He is far away in the northern border now. If you want to choose him, it may take some time before you can marry him."
The Queen looked at Wen Ning and supported her idea.
"Choose Gu Xici. I have never seen anyone so handsome."
Wen Ning pointed at Gu Xici's portrait and looked at Queen Jiang happily.
"Well, I didn't expect Aning also loves beauty."
The queen looked at the emperor, blinked, and signaled him that he could grant the marriage.
"Okay, I will grant you marriage right now. Come, draft the decree."
"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that the Shangshu's daughter Wen Ning is virtuous and upright, and is hereby granted marriage to General Yunhui Gu Xici. The marriage will take place soon. I decree this!"
The news of the granted marriage spread throughout the capital, and some were happy while others were worried.
Wen Ning was very happy as he finally got rid of that villain, the Fifth Prince.
Given her status as the wife of General Yun Hui and the granddaughter-in-law of General Zhenguo, Xiao Ren should be wary of them and would not try to poach her, let alone try to win her heart.
Gu Xici's grandfather was very worried. He had let Gu Xici dress as a man since she was a child. There were undercurrents in the capital, and he was worried that Gu Xici's identity would be exposed, so he sent her to the northern border to guard the city.
Unexpectedly, the emperor suddenly granted him a marriage. What should he do?
If they revealed Gu Xici's true identity, not only would they be guilty of deceiving the emperor, but the Black Armor Army would also be taken away by the emperor. Then, those who had been offended in the past would not know how to treat the grandfather and grandson.
If they refused the marriage, they would not only be guilty of disobeying the imperial order, but would also offend the Queen and Minister Lin. Their family had been military commanders for generations, and they didn't know how they would be bullied by the civil officials.
Gu Xici, who was far away at the border of Zhou State, had no idea what was happening in the capital. She had already experienced the joy of having a powerful martial arts value that exploded during this period, and there was no one around her who could fight.
He was accompanied by two little followers, one giving advice and suggestions, the other bringing him food and drinks.
At this moment, Gu Xici was sitting on the city wall of Chu City which had just been captured not long ago.
"General, General, the State of Chu has come to send a letter of peace."
Lieutenant General Lin came over happily and sat next to Gu Xici. He often brought meals and snacks to Gu Xici recently. He felt that he was the most important person around General Gu.
"If they don't submit a peace letter, the general will probably attack their imperial city."
Li Yu was not to be outdone. On the battlefield, he was responsible for making plans and the general was responsible for attacking the city. Their cooperation was seamless, and he must be the most important person around the general.
"What did you say?"
Gu Xici stretched lazily, believing that it wouldn’t take long for him to return to Beijing after the news reached the capital.
"They asked us to return the city to Chu, and they were willing to send a princess to marry us. It seems to be something like this. Do we really want to return the city?"
Lieutenant General Lin was a little confused. How could the city that his brothers had taken with great effort be returned just because of a princess?
"We are military commanders, so let's leave those matters to the civil officials. If we are not satisfied, then the brothers will continue to occupy it, and the State of Chu will definitely not dare to take it back by force."
Gu Xici stood up and it seemed that he could pack up and return to the capital.
"General, wait for me. What would you like to eat later?"
After seeing Gu Xici leave, Lieutenant General Lin hurriedly followed.
Gu Xici slowed down his pace to make it easier for his little follower to keep up.
The capital of Zhou Dynasty.
"General Gu, double happiness has come to you. Congratulations!"
As soon as the morning court session ended, colleagues came over to congratulate me.
"I always thought that General Gu was not satisfied after the marriage was granted, but I didn't expect him to take it so seriously. He even secretly informed General Gu. No wonder General Gu forced the State of Chu to seek peace so quickly. It turned out that he wanted to return to the capital to get married as soon as possible."
Seeing that they were too busy to take care of it, a large group of officials came over to congratulate them.
"Happy together."
Without even bothering to get out of the crowd, he directly ordered the coachman to return home.
How could he know that Gu Xici would end the war so quickly, and he never dared to tell Gu Xici about the arranged marriage.
When he drove Gu Xici out of the capital, he promised her that he would handle the affairs of the capital and she just needed to stay in the northern border peacefully.
Now that A Ci has returned from the victory, he has a wife. I wonder how his granddaughter will treat him as an old man when she comes back.
Just now when he was attending court, good news came from the front that our army had defeated the State of Chu and asked for peace. The emperor was so happy that he appointed Gu Xici as the champion general.
And he allowed him to start preparing for the wedding. The emperor meant that Gu Xici had brought victory to the Zhou Kingdom. Not only did he want to promote Gu Xici, he also planned to arrange for Gu Xici's most important event in life, getting married.
Well, judging from the emperor's attitude, there is good news. The emperor does not suspect the Gu family and will not take action against them because their achievements are greater than his own.
Over the generations, the Gu family has made great contributions to the Zhou State, but the Gu family's descendants are dwindling, and by Gu Xici's generation, she is the only one left.
The Gu family's Black Armored Army is composed of the descendants of the comrades who followed the ancestors of the Gu family. The Black Armored Army only obeys the orders of the Gu family. The Gu family can have today's prosperity and wealth thanks to this Black Armored Army.
But because of this Black Armor Army, the Gu family had to keep a low profile to ease other people's fear of the Gu family.
