When Chu Qinghe heard what General Qin said, he quickly said:

“Grandfather, the capital was mentioned in the bundle we retrieved from the old Chu family’s beam.

And last night we saw that Old Chu seemed very confident that he could get the silver within a few days, I think there may be a connection between the two. "

Chu Qinghe handed the letter in his hand to General Qin and said, "Grandfather, this is the letter we got from Old Chu's house."

General Qin took the letter, opened it and read it carefully.

He nodded slightly and asked, "Are there any other evidence?"

Chu Qinghe stepped forward, placed the bundle on the table, and gently opened it, revealing the items inside one by one.

Inside the package, there was a swaddling cloth with a blue background and white flowers. Old Lady Qin opened it and took a look. She saw the word "Yi" written on it.

There was also a key-like object and a semicircular jade pendant in the bundle.

Chu Qinghe asked: "Grandfather and grandmother, have you figured out anything?"

General Qin nodded slightly, thought for a moment and said:

"This matter is indeed strange. If I am not mistaken, this matter is related to the current prime minister and the mighty general. It is very involved."

When everyone heard this, they were all surprised. Chu Qinghe asked:

"Grandfather, how did this matter involve the current prime minister and the mighty general? What does this have to do with them?"

General Qin was lost in his memories for a long time. He then said:

“It’s a long story. I’ve been stationed at the border and I’m not very clear about it.

What I am going to say next is just hearsay.

About thirty-seven or thirty-eight years ago, Daxia and Dasheng often had conflicts and frictions over border issues.

The two sides fought frequently. The person guarding the border of Daxiayu and Dasheng at that time was the mighty general Shang Zhibang, the son-in-law of the old prime minister and the brother-in-law of the current prime minister.

When the old prime minister married his only daughter, Li Mingxi, to the general stationed at the border, it caused quite a stir.

After they got married, they were separated for most of the time, so Li followed General Shang to be stationed at the border. After marriage, they lived in harmony and gave birth to two sons and one daughter.

They were named Shang Zimo, Shang Zichen and Shang Yajun.

Shang Yajun looks like Li Mingxi, and General Shang dotes on his only daughter like a treasure.

Shang Yajun was also very competitive. She was smart and beautiful when she was young. Not only was she good at studying, she was also quite talented in martial arts.

During the border war, she insisted on going to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and General Shang couldn't persuade her. So he allowed her to go to the battle with him. "

General Qin stopped and took a sip of tea.

Chu Qinghe couldn't help but ask: "What happened next?"

General Qin fell into his memories again.

Later, Shang Yajun went to the battlefield and performed very bravely.

With her outstanding martial arts and quick mind, she won many military exploits, which made the soldiers on the border look at her with admiration and have great trust in her.

Later, in a fierce battle, Shang Yajun led his troops in a surprise attack and met the commander of Daxia, Shangguan Chengwei, the crown prince of Daxia at that time.

It is said that when the two men saw each other, they suddenly lost their composure and changed the direction of their killing moves to avoid losing their lives.

Unfortunately, Shang Yajun was seriously injured. Shangguan Chengwei took her back to the Daxia camp and took care of her for more than a month before sending her back to the camp on the border of Dasheng.

After returning to the Dasheng border camp, Shang Yajun's injuries gradually improved, but she developed a special feeling for Shangguan Chengwei.

While taking care of Shang Yajun, Shangguan Chengwei also developed admiration and love for this brave and beautiful woman.

However, the cruelty of the war did not give the two much time to think about their feelings for each other.

After Shang Yajun recovered from her injuries, she quickly returned to the battle and continued to fight to defend Dasheng's border.

As the war continued, the conflict between Daxia and Dasheng became more intense.

Shang Zhibang and his three sons, together with Shang Yajun, led the soldiers of Dasheng to fight bravely and repelled the attacks of Daxia many times.

In a crucial battle, Shang Yajun led a group of elite soldiers deep into the Daxia camp to carry out a dangerous mission.

During this mission, she met Shangguan Chengwei again.

The two fought a thrilling duel on the battlefield, but at the critical moment, Shangguan Chengwei showed mercy and did not kill Shang Yajun. He let Shang Yajun go back to Dasheng.

In the end, the war ended with Daxia's retreat.

After the war, Shang Yajun was sent back to the capital because he needed to recuperate due to his injuries and because he was old and needed to get engaged.

She tried to forget Shangguan Chengwei, but the feelings in her heart could never be erased.

Shangguan Chengwei also never forgot Shang Yajun.

He began to strive for peaceful relations with Dasheng, hoping to have the opportunity to meet Shang Yajun again.

After Shang Yajun returned to the capital, she could not forget Shangguan Chengwei.

But she also understood that there was an unbridgeable gap between their identities and positions.

So she obeyed her parents' orders and started looking for a marriage partner.

At a banquet hosted by a visiting foreign delegation, Shang Yajun met Shangguan Chengwei again.

The moment their eyes met, the emotions in their hearts were ignited again.

However, they could only bury this emotion deep in their hearts and stare at each other silently.

At the banquet, Shangguan Chengwei said that Daxia and Dasheng had been in constant friction and frequent wars for many years, and the people of the two countries were displaced and their national strength was declining.

It would be better for the two countries to stop the war and interact peacefully.

The late emperor was also well aware of the cruelty of war, so he agreed to allow the Daxia delegation to stay in the capital to discuss relevant matters of the ceasefire between the two countries.

While Shangguan Chengwei was staying in Beijing, he tried every means to contact Shang Yajun.

Finally, on a sunny day, Shang Yajun received a letter from Shangguan Chengwei.

The letter expressed his longing for and love for her, and also showed that he was willing to work hard for their future.

After reading the letter, Shang Yajun burst into tears. She knew that the feelings between them were sincere.

Shang Yajun knew about Shangguan Chengwei’s efforts and was deeply moved.

Finally, when the two countries were negotiating a ceasefire, Shangguan Chengwei proposed that in order to establish a deeper level of trust between the two countries, he was willing to marry Shang Yajun, the daughter of the mighty general, as the crown princess. When he ascended the throne one day, Shang Yajun would be the queen, and the two countries would then cease fire permanently.

This proposal caused the court of Dasheng to fall into deep thought.

On one hand, this seemed like a great opportunity to make peace;

On the other hand, everyone was also worried that the Shang family would not want Shang Yajun to marry far away in Daxia.

After learning about Shangguan Chengwei's proposal, Shang Yajun felt mixed emotions.

She was happy that they could be together, but also sad to leave her hometown and family.

However, she also understands that this may be the best way to resolve the dispute between the two countries.

After careful consideration, Shang Yajun agreed to Shangguan Chengwei's proposal.

She knew that this was not only for the peace of the country and the tranquility of the people, but also for her own happiness and for the one she loved, so she was willing to take a gamble.

The emperor and ministers of Dasheng finally agreed to the marriage.

Thus, the two countries began to prepare for a grand wedding to celebrate this marriage forged through peace.
