My vicious dog, my horse, I can do whatever I want with it

Zong Yanli became very famous, and the fame of the big bird between his legs even spread to Gao Guojun's camp.

Zong Yanhongtu, the uncle, was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He could even hear his soldiers asking him if all the men in the Zong Yan family were so "majestic"!

After a great victory in the first battle, we should make a concerted effort.

They did not give Qing Kingdom a chance to breathe and were determined to recapture Yuanshi Pass.

Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Qin Wujiu and the reinforcements from the Gao State finally recaptured the lost Yuanshi Pass and drove the Qing State out of the Wu State. So far, our army's victory in defending the city was a complete success. In order to prevent the Qing State from attacking the city again, the reinforcements from the Gao State did not withdraw, but stationed outside the Yuanshi Pass.

"Ali, pack up and go to Pingnanying to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival." Zong Yanhongtu called Zong Yanli over and said with a smile: "Your mother and sister have arrived in Pingnanying, don't miss this opportunity to reunite with your family."

"Mother is here!?" Zong Yanli looked surprised.

"Well, hurry up and pack up!" Zong Yanhongtu waved his hand at Zong Yanli and said, "I'll go talk to General Qin and gather in front of the camp later."

Zong Yanli responded and turned back to the tent, took two simple sets of clothes with him, called Wen Nian and Gao Feilin to accompany him, and set off.

Ning Chi wanted to come but was rejected by Zong Yanli. She went to Pingnan Camp for personal matters. After all, Ning Chi was Qin Wujiu's nephew, so how could she take him with her all the time?

When Zong Yanli arrived in front of the camp, Zong Yanhongtu happened to arrive as well, and the two of them set out on the road to Pingnan Camp.

It had been less than two years since he left, but when he came back he felt as if everything had changed. Zong Yanli sat upright on his horse, looking at the Zong Yan family's flag erected at the Pingnan Camp garrison at the foot of the hill, and felt very complicated.

Zong Yanli followed Zong Yanhongtu into the Pingnan Camp and saw the bearded Zong Yanfeiyi approaching them with open arms: "Second brother! Ah Li!"

"Have you retired to the mountains? Why do you look like a savage?" Zong Yanhongtu pushed Zong Yanfeiyi away with disgust. Looking at his beard-covered face, he almost didn't recognize that this was his fourth brother.

"Don't I think I look more heroic like this!?" Zong Yanfeiyi laughed, putting his hands on his hips, seeming to be very satisfied with his 'masculine charm'!

"..." Zong Yanhongtu frowned, looking away and asking, "Where is the general?"

"In the tent! My sister-in-law and my younger sister are here too!" Zong Yanfeiyi said quickly, "My sister-in-law also brought someone with her..."

Originally, Zong Yanli had no idea what Zong Yan Feiyi's mysterious expression meant. But when she followed Zong Yan Hongtu into the tent, she suddenly understood what was going on inside the tent.

Mother and sister were sitting together, while Zong Yanhongjing was playing chess with a young man. The atmosphere in the tent seemed a little tense. Next to the man sat a middle-aged man who looked quite wealthy and had elegant manners. He stood up immediately when he saw them enter.

"Hello, father and mother." Zong Yanli followed Zong Yanhongtu and leaned forward to say.

"Brother!" Zong Yanyin smiled immediately when she saw Zong Yanli, opened her arms and threw herself into Zong Yanli's arms.

Everyone laughed at this scene. Han said seriously, "Don't cling to your brother like this. You are all grown up now. You should pay attention to etiquette."

Zong Yanyin took a half step back with a wronged look on her face, lowered her head and remained silent.

The only two unfamiliar middle-aged men in the tent immediately said, "This must be the eldest son, right? He is so heroic and extraordinary!"

"It's rare to see brother and sister like this. Their intimacy only makes people feel that they have a deep affection for each other. Why should they be restrained in front of their family?" The middle-aged man laughed and looked at Zong Yanli with admiration.

"Father and Mother, this is..." Zong Yanli frowned slightly. Hearing him calling himself a family member, he felt a little worried.

"This is your distant cousin. He was going to the border of Gao State to do business. He sent me and your sister along the way when we passed by Pingnanying." Han said he was a cousin, but in reality, the relationship was very different. At least Zong Yanli didn't know this person at all, but he still called him politely, "Cousin."

"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it." Zhen Dehui hurriedly returned the gift. He had been traveling all over the country doing business for so many years, and he still knew who were the relatives he could recognize and who were not.

"This is my sister's eldest son. His surname is Wei and his name is Songhe. He is currently serving as a court official in the patrol camp in the capital." Zhen Dehui turned around and introduced the young man. He looked about the same age as Zong Yanli and had a dignified appearance. He greeted Zong Yanli as an equal and said, "Young General."

"You're already an assistant minister at such a young age?" Zong Yanhongtu laughed and praised, "You're really young and promising!"

"I just received help from my family. Compared with the great military achievements of the generals, it is nothing to mention." Wei Songhe said very humbly.

"The job in the Supreme Court is not an easy one. It's all hard work in the prison. Why did Minister Wei come here if he is not working in the capital?" Zong Yanhongtu sat down next to Zong Yanhongjing, brought tea and called everyone to sit down, then asked questions in the manner of an elder.

"Firstly, there are two cases in Shouxi County, and I took over the investigation. Secondly, I have heard of the reputation of General Zong Yan, and came here to admire and learn something." Wei Songhe was humble and answered calmly. While speaking, he turned his head slightly to look at Zong Yanyin, as if he was a little embarrassed.

Zong Yanli's eyes turned green as he watched, and he clenched his hands on his knees again and again. The glance he gave Wei Songhe seemed to be filled with murderous intent.

Zong Yanfeiyi kept coughing when he saw this, and couldn't help but kick Zong Yanli under the stool, as if to warn him to bear with it!

Zong Yanhongtu asked all the questions he could. Wei Songhe's father was born in a scholar's house, so it was no exaggeration to say that he came from a scholarly family. Although his mother came from a merchant family, there was nothing wrong with that. Although Wei Songhe became the Minister of the Court of Justice with some intention of helping his family, he was also a capable person.

He was polite in his conversation and had insights on criminal justice matters. It was obvious that both his father and mother were satisfied with him.

"Ayin, come out with me." Zong Yanli couldn't help himself and called Zong Yanyin out of the tent.

"How much do you know about Wei Songhe?" Zong Yanyin blinked and shook her head, biting her lip a little embarrassedly and said, "I met the Wei family twice when they came to propose marriage. We didn't have any private interactions. But the young master of the Wei family sent a lot of things to the mansion every now and then."

"Brother, do you think he is not a good person?" Zong Yanyin looked up at Zong Yanli. She had never agreed to this marriage because she wanted her brother to see it with his own eyes.

When Han came here this time, the Wei family must have spent a lot of effort to find Zhen Dehui to be the matchmaker, and then asked someone to make arrangements at the Ministry of Justice to ask Wei Songhe to come here on this mission.

If nothing else, he really cares about it.

Perhaps Zong Yanli was too concerned and always worried. After thinking for a long time, he decided to go and meet Wei Songhe in person.

"Since Minister Wei works in the prison, I think his leg skills are pretty good. Let's have a fight." Zong Yanli didn't bother to be polite with him and directly ordered his men to go to the parade ground.

"..." Zong Yanhongjing felt a little worried for Wei Songhe when he saw his own child in this state.

"My sister has no shortage of good men around her. How can someone who doesn't have any ability at all protect her?" Zong Yanli looked cold, and looked at Wei Songhe with a face full of questions, "Can you do it?"

"Ali, don't act silly." Zong Yanhongjing pretended to be serious and scolded him twice.

"It's okay." Wei Songhe stood up and said with great courage: "I have heard of the young general's reputation for a long time. Although I know that I will definitely not be able to defeat him, I still want to experience it a little."

Zong Yanli raised his eyebrows, seeing that he could accept the challenge so straightforwardly, he was indeed a manly man.

Zong Yanfeiyi approached Zong Yanli and said, "Don't kill them like your soldiers! Use less force..."

Zong Yanli didn't know whether she heard it or not. She strode onto the training ground. The two of them stood on the sand. Zong Yanli looked at Wei Songhe with scrutiny in her eyes. She didn't know if it was because of her psychology, but she really didn't like him no matter how she looked at him.

"Please give me some advice, General." Wei Songhe leaned over and said to Zong Yanli.

"Hmph." Zong Yanli snorted coldly and swung his fist forward.

Zong Yan Feiyi was a little afraid to look and half-covered his eyes.

Wei Songhe is not a weak scholar who cannot even tie a chicken. To solve a case, he has to hunt down the criminals. How can he do this without some skills?

He was considered an expert in martial arts in the Ministry of Justice. Although he never thought he could beat Zong Yanli, he never expected that his palm would become numb after just taking a punch from Zong Yanli. When he saw Zong Yanli's leg sweeping towards him, mixed with the fierce attack, his face suddenly changed and he retreated repeatedly.

"This child doesn't know the seriousness of the matter." Han was terrified.

Zhen Dehui opened her mouth and hesitated to speak, trying to persuade him. But then she thought that Wei Songhe had asked for it. Since he wanted to marry someone else's sister, he deserved to be beaten...

In the end, everyone just watched in silence as Zong Yanli beat Wei Songhe. No one expected that Wei Songhe didn't even call for a stop. He knew he was no match for his opponent but he still struggled to hold on.

Zong Yanli felt relaxed after venting his emotions. Looking at Wei Songhe's shaking hands, he gritted his teeth and refused to give up. He admired him a little.

"If you admit defeat, I will stop." Zong Yanli looked at him and said.

"It's okay..." Wei Songhe said while panting, "Since you are dissatisfied with me, please come."

"You know I'm unhappy with you?" Zong Yanli didn't attack again. Instead, he stood face to face with Wei Songhe and said, "I only have this one sister. Her life is more important than mine. I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible."

"I am not a person who is good at sweet talk, and I am definitely not false to your sister." Wei Songhe said with a sigh, "I can't say anything nice, I just want to be devoted to her in the future, that's all."

"If I do anything unfaithful, just come to the Wei Mansion with a knife, and I will not resist at all."

"You think I don't dare?" Zong Yanli sneered, "Two punches are enough to kill you, why would I need to use a knife!"

"..."

So when Zong Yanli was fighting with him just now, he really was holding back, right?

Wei Songhe suddenly smiled, looked at Zong Yanli and said, "I have heard of the young general's reputation for a long time. Today, I have learned a lesson from him. With you, my elder brother, here, how dare I act presumptuously?"

Zong Yanli snorted lightly without responding, turned around and jumped off the training ground arena.

Zhen Dehui quickly asked his servant to help Wei Songhe down. He felt both amused and sad at the sight of his miserable appearance. He turned to Zong Yanhongjing and praised him, "Your son is really brave and powerful. He lives up to the name of a tiger general!"

Zong Yanhongjing laughed twice, turned around and asked Wei Songhe, "Nephew Wei, are you not injured?"

Wei Songhe's hands and feet were shaking, but he had to pretend that nothing was wrong. He said with difficulty: "Young General, you have held back a few times. It's because I am not as skilled as you. It doesn't matter. Thank you for your concern, General."

"Mother, do you really want that boy named Wei to be Ayin's husband?" Zhen Dehui and his group in the tent followed Zong Yanfeiyi outside for a walk, actually leaving space for the family to talk.

"The Wei family is the most suitable one, whether in terms of family background or appearance and future prospects." Han was straightforward. She looked at Zong Yanli and said, "What else are you dissatisfied with?"

"Do you want your sister to stay at home for the rest of her life?" Han seemed to have seen through Zong Yanli's weird thoughts and knew that she was worried. She sighed and said, "You've been seen and beaten. You have to agree even if you don't agree."

Zong Yanli: ...

It was still too light.

Zong Yanhongjing followed up and said, "I think he's a good guy, and his boxing skills are pretty good too..."

Zong Yanli said dissatisfiedly: "I was just letting him go, otherwise he would have beaten me to death long ago!"

Zong Yanhongjing glared at Zong Yanli, then turned to look at Zong Yanyin and said, "Ayin, do you like it?"

"Hmm..." Zong Yanyin thought about it. In fact, she herself was not sure what she liked or disliked. She just felt that this person was pleasing to the eye and not annoying.

"Don't rush into getting married, just get to know each other first." Han was quite sensible and was not in a hurry to marry the girl off, so she said this to Zong Yanyin.

When Zong Yanli heard this, he understood that this marriage was most likely a done deal.

Zong Yanhongjing also said: "I will write a letter to the capital someday and ask someone to inquire about the Wei family."

Zong Yanli was too lazy to listen to what happened next. He took Zong Yanyin out and left his parents to worry about it.

Zong Yanyin pulled Zong Yanli's sleeve and asked, "Brother, are you unhappy?"

"I'm not unhappy." Zong Yanli reached out and patted her head. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Ayin, remember, no matter what happens, my brother will stand by you. So no matter what happens in the future, you must not let yourself be wronged."

"If the Wei family is not good, then change your husband. All the men under my brother's command are good men. You can choose whatever you want!"

Zong Yanyin blushed immediately after hearing this: "Brother, what nonsense are you talking about..."

Zong Yanli smiled, looked at Zong Yanyin's little face, and said with a complicated expression: "Brother, you have done so much and said so much for you. If I can't make you happy, there is nothing else in this world for me to worry about."

"Brother, you will get married in the future! You will have to worry about yourself too!" Zong Yanyin said very obediently.
