The Great General and His Little Scholars

Song Yuanzhen was so startled that she almost fainted, she stared at Song Yuanhao with wide eyes and said, "Second brother, do you want my life!"

Song Yuanhao ignored Song Yuanzhen, only looked at Liao Mingli and said: "If my king makes you a son-in-law, how will you repay this king?"

Liao Mingli didn't know if Song Yuanhao was real or not, but he still kowtowed and said: "My minister would like to be King Zhao's cattle and horses, but King Zhao's horse is the one to follow."

"Okay, that's very good." Song Yuanhao waved his hands and said, "Go back and inform the general and your mother to prepare for marrying the princess."

Liao Mingli looked at Song Yuanhao in disbelief and forgot to thank him for a while.

Song Yuanhao said coldly: "What? Are you waiting for this king to change his mind?"

Liao Mingli woke up like a dream, and realized that Song Yuanhao was not playing tricks on him, and immediately kowtowed in ecstasy, "Thank you, Your Highness, King Zhao, thank you, Your Highness, King Zhao!"

Song Yuanzhen stared dumbfounded at Liao Mingli's withdrawal, tears streaming down her face, and yelled at Song Yuanhao like crazy: "Why do you decide for me! I don't want to marry this bastard!!"

"Do you think you are still a delicate princess? Now that you have lost your body and dignity, no one else will marry you except Liao Mingli!" Song Yuanhao said in a cold voice, "Liao Mingsi never wanted you before, and now he is even more so. I will!"

"If you refuse to do this, you can only report it to the queen mother and the emperor truthfully. Then it will be you who will be ashamed! Not the king!"

Song Yuanzhen stayed there with a pale face, unable to do anything except shed tears.

Song Yuanhao looked at Song Yuanzhen's appearance, and softened his tone: "It's the general's mansion. If you don't agree, you will never be able to enter. If you agree, you can enter the mansion. Those who hurt you like this are not allowed to be controlled by you." In your hands, punish at will."

Song Yuanzhen sat down on the chair with a complicated expression.

Song Yuanhao persuaded again: "Today's matter, I really can't let the emperor and the queen mother know, especially the emperor. He is kind to the general's house, if he knows that you have murdered important ministers for your own self-interest, even if it is your own sister, I won't forgive you either."

"Currently the frontier war is unstable, the Russian captives are ferocious, and our court has suffered repeated defeats. The emperor has been standing still. There are rumors that the Russian captives sent someone to send a secret letter, threatening a marriage. Think about it, at this juncture, if you are rejected by the emperor, Maybe he was sent to the Russian captives to marry his relatives, and I don't know."

Song Yuanzhen's eyes flustered. Although she felt resentful for being insulted by Liao Mingsi, the reason was her coveting of Liao Mingsi.Presumably, the emperor who has always favored Liao Mingsi would not make decisions for himself.

Hearing Song Yuanhao talk about the Russian prisoner's marriage, he became more and more uncertain and more and more afraid.

Suddenly, Song Yuanzhen gritted his teeth and said, "Second brother is right. If it weren't for that Sima Jiangtong, how could I have ended up where I am today. Well, as the second brother said, I will marry Liao Mingli, as long as I enter the general's mansion , must not spare him!"

Song Yuanhao smiled, and said: "This is what the eldest princess looks like. This king immediately reported to his mother, saying that you and Liao Mingli are in love, and the wedding must be held soon."

A few days later, in the general's mansion, Liao Mingsi led Sima Jingxuan into the main hall. Liao Shan and He Qing were already waiting there. When they saw Sima Jingxuan coming in, they wanted to salute. Sima Jingxuan caught up with him and said, "General and Madam is the benefactor of the royal residence, how dare you accept the gift."

"Where, King Fucheng is truly loyal and courageous. I'm just doing my duty. How dare I call myself a benefactor." Liao Shan said.

Sima Jingxuan said with emotion: "Twenty years ago, in Binzhou, if the general hadn't arrived in time, my father and I would have been separated."

He Qing looked at Sima Jingxuan, the corners of his eyes became moist, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "You have grown up so much, you really look like King Fucheng when you were young."

The two sides exchanged pleasantries with emotion, and sat down one by one.He Qingdao: "I received a letter from Jiang Tong earlier, saying that the emperor intends to invite King Fucheng to return to the capital. Now that you come back first, it seems that the day to see you again is not far away."

Sima Jingxuan shook his head and said: "Father originally thought that it was a long-cherished wish to come back to see the old man again, but since the beginning of winter, he has contracted the wind and cold, which caused the recurrence of old injuries, and has been bedridden. Father I was also afraid that there would be changes over time, so I sent me back to face the saint first to arrange everything."

He Qing couldn't help but look worried after hearing this: "Is it important? No wonder I sent it to the mansion to inquire about the marriage between Jiang Tong and Sufeng County Lord, but I didn't get a response for a long time."

When Liao Mingsi heard about Jiang Tong and Xu Pinyan's marriage, he couldn't help but glance at Sima Jingxuan.

At this time, Liao Shan said: "Jiang Tong already has a marriage contract in Tanzhou. Fortunately, the prince arrived in time. The queen mother almost gave him the marriage at the winter solstice banquet."

"Oh?" He Qing looked at Liao Mingsi in surprise: "Aren't you very close to Jiang Tong? He has a marriage contract in Tanzhou, and you don't even know?"

Liao Mingsi murmured: "Oh...Tong Luueue mentioned it..."

"Then I told you about the Empress Dowager's intention to give her a marriage, why didn't you tell me?"

Liao Mingsi didn't expect that He Qing would pursue this matter, so he didn't know what to say for a while.Sima Jingxuan hurriedly answered, "Jiang Tong is shy by nature, so he may not talk about such things with Ming Si."

He Qing frowned slightly: "But...Jiang Tong was also there that day, but he didn't say, why did this child hide these things?"

When Liao Mingsi and Sima Jingxuan were wondering how to answer, suddenly there was a report from outside: "General, madam, the Queen Mother's order has come to the palace."

Everyone present was taken aback, Liao Mingsi couldn't help but thump in his heart.Thinking of what Song Yuanzhen did a few days ago, she was worried that Xu Wen might fail to match Jiang Tong and Xu Pinyan, so she was persuaded by Song Yuanzhen to marry her directly.

But he couldn't allow him to think too much, the eunuch who announced the decree had arrived, and the family hurriedly knelt down to receive the decree.The eunuch came in but asked: "Which one is the second son Liao Mingli?"

Liao Shan was a little surprised and said: "In the back house."

"Quickly send him and the concubine of the general's mansion, Mrs. Sun, to listen to the order."

Although it was a bit puzzling, Liao Shan hurriedly had someone call Liao Mingli and Aunt Sun.

The eunuch's imperial decree was not finished reading, and everyone present was already extremely surprised.Apart from Liao Mingli, even Aunt Sun had an unbelievable face.

Looking at the expressions of the whole family, Liao Mingli showed a smug smile on his face, and calmly accepted the imperial edict.

After seeing off the Xuanzhi eunuch, Liao Shan asked Liao Mingli in surprise, "What's going on? Didn't you always say that the eldest princess loves your eldest brother? Could it be that I heard wrong?"

Liao Mingli smiled and said, "In father's eyes, isn't it true that elder brother is the only one worthy of golden branches and jade leaves?"

When Liao Shan was robbed of such a sentence, he was about to get angry when he frowned.Seeing this, Aunt Sun hurriedly came over to grab Liao Shan and said, "My lord, Mingli is going to be a son-in-law. You can't be beaten or scolded easily. You have to take the royal family's face into consideration."

Seeing this, He Qing also said: "My lord, since the decree has been issued, it is a matter of certainty. This is also a big matter in the general's mansion, and we must immediately prepare for the wedding. I have to go to the palace to discuss the ceremony with the queen mother." system."

Although Liao Mingsi was lucky enough to escape a catastrophe, he was really puzzled by the 180-degree turn of events and couldn't help feeling suspicious.
