General's Good Friday

Road.

The young man wiped away his tears and whispered, "One...one tael of silver."

"Ugh……"

The general finally sighed this time, he is a dignified hussar general, even if his wife is a bought man, it is only worth one tael of silver!

He thought of the 8 taels of betrothal gift that his cousin spent when he married his cousin's sister-in-law, and he couldn't help but start to wonder if his mother bought him home just because he thought the boy was cheap enough.

The young man wiped away his tears for a while, and the crying gradually stopped. He and the general were sitting idle in the main hall, and the atmosphere was still peaceful, so he couldn't help but want to talk to the general.

"Weng... Lord Weng bought me, I am very... very grateful," he said in a low voice with his head lowered, "I... my family is very short of money."

The general looked at him.

His voice was even lower: "If... if it wasn't for Lord Weng's help, I... I would be sold to the Nange Hall, I... I know I am not good enough for you, General, but... but..."

He had thousands of words in his heart, but he couldn't say anything in front of the general.

Like so many ordinary teenagers in Daqing, he humblely admires the shining general in his heart, and has a dream in his heart that one day he will be favored by the general. The helpless and most unbearable moment suddenly came true!For the past three months, he has been living in ecstasy but walking on thin ice, not daring to make any mistakes in his actions, lest all this is just an empty dream of his own, and if he takes a wrong step, this dream will immediately shatter, and he ... He hadn't even had time to see the General.

The general looked at the young man with his head buried and speechless, and secretly sighed again in his heart—God knows how much he has sighed since seeing him!

"Don't...don't think about it, since you..." The general gritted his teeth, "Since you have entered the door of my Meng family, I will naturally not treat you badly. From now on... just live a good life!"

"General!"

The young man was so moved that he threw himself into the general's arms with a cry.

The general almost couldn't catch his breath, his whole body was tense, and he was struggling to endure the soft body of the young man, with a very ugly expression on his face.

After a whole day of tossing around, the general finally convinced himself to accept that such a strange "Madam" was at home.

Although this young man's temperament is so soft that he really has nothing to do, but it's done, it's useless to talk more, besides, he just returned to the court, there are still many things to do, and he doesn't have so much time to worry about these.

"What do you do at home every day?" The general asked the young man who wanted to come up to help but was stopped by him, so he could only look on helplessly while wearing an official uniform.

"No...didn't do anything..." The boy replied staggeringly.

"Didn't do anything?" The general frowned, "Just idle?"

The young man lowered his head in shame: "When he first entered the mansion, the Lord Weng sent a few aunts to teach the rules, and then... there was nothing to do."

The general squinted at him, thinking that this was not a problem, he had to do something to get the young man away, otherwise would he have to be stared at by him every step of the way when he returned home?How did you live that day!

"How old are you?" the general asked.

The young man also seemed to see that the general was dissatisfied with his idleness all day long, so he lowered his head and whispered, "Ten...seventeen."

The general thought, such a skinny guy is seventeen years old, tsk tsk tsk.

The general recalled a little bit what he looked like when he was 17 years old. It seemed that it was the time when he fought hard against the left side of the Huns. He killed more than a hundred enemies in a battle and became famous, so he was excluded Selected as a pioneer, and made great contributions in the next year's war.

Sigh... The general looked back at himself, and looked at the young man again, feeling quite a sense of decline.

"Have you ever read a book?" the general asked again.

The young man whispered: "I have read it... But the family has not been able to afford the money for the past two years, so I have not continued to study."

"Yeah," the general nodded in satisfaction, "That's good, I'll find you a teacher tomorrow, so you can study hard at home."

Don't always follow me in and out, those eyes... are too penetrating!

The young man blushed slightly, deeply moved, and his white hands twisted into a ball again: "Thank you...thank you, General!"

The general thought of a way to get rid of the young man, and felt very comfortable. After changing into his official uniform, he left the young man at home, got into a carriage and went to the palace.

On the way, the general's carriage passed by a gorgeous and fancy ox cart. The general suddenly heard the bleating of a cow on the quiet street of Huangcheng, and immediately pricked up his ears.

"What's going on?" The general was very angry. "In the imperial city, what a dignified and solemn place, why are there still people driving cattle? How decent!"

The coachman smiled and said, "The general hasn't returned to Jianyang for several years, so he doesn't know the current trend."

"What?" The general was surprised, thanks to the Lord Yangling, the general now has a headache when he hears about "trends" and "isms".

"Hey," the coachman smiled honestly, "That wasn't driving cattle just now, it was the bullock cart of His Royal Highness King Qingzhou."

"Huh?" The general was stunned.

"Nowadays, it's fashionable for nobles to ride an ox cart. They say that the ox cart walks steadily, walks gracefully, has aristocratic demeanor, and is much more comfortable than a horse cart. Didn't you see? His Royal Highness also came back yesterday by an ox cart Yes."

General: "..."

In the distance, the general could still hear the "moo moo" of the cow, lingering in his ears gracefully and lazily.

The general feels that he is already very far behind in this world, no wonder he is always rejected by his mother... Whenever he thinks he has finally caught up with the latest trends, he always finds time and time again that his footsteps will never be able to keep up Strange fashion trends.

He looked out the window gloomily, thinking, when will there be a wave of enthusiasm that will distract the attention of the crowd from him?

When he arrived at the palace, the general, led by the palace staff, went down to meet the current emperor.

At this moment, Emperor Jingming was critiquing paperwork, and when he saw the general coming, a smile appeared on his face immediately.

"Aiqing," said Emperor Jingming, "you came just in time! Zhaode just left..."

When the general heard the word "Zhaode", his face paled in shock, and he knelt down with a "plop": "Your Majesty! Now that I have married my wife and started a family, I absolutely dare not touch Your Highness the Princess again!"

Emperor Jingming frowned: "What did you say?"

The general fell to the ground: "The minister is already a family man now! Your Majesty Wan Wang will choose another son-in-law for the princess!"

Emperor Jingming frowned even tighter, and patted the table: "Didn't you say you like men? Why are you still kissing? Huh? Are you playing with me?"

The general wailed: "Your Majesty's enlightenment! Your... madam is a man's wife! A man's wife!"

"Ah..." Emperor Jing Ming opened his mouth, lost his mind for a while, suddenly thought of something, and slapped his forehead, "I remember! Hahahaha! The former son Zitong said that he bought a man for a tael of silver. You are the stingy wife! Hahahaha! Aiqing, you are really... hahahaha..."

Emperor Jing Ming smiled so comfortably on top, but the general turned pale below.

This is terrible, as the saying goes, good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, and now even His Majesty the emperor has heard about his bad luck, that is to say, the whole Jianyang has already known!

Everyone knows that his husband and wife were bought for a tael of silver!

The general's eyes were darkened, and he held on so hard that he didn't fall down.

The general humiliated and endured enough of Emperor Jingming's ridicule in the hall, and then he resigned.

He was standing at the gate of the palace, facing the cold wind, feeling sad in secret. At this time, a group of palace people suddenly came around the corner. The one in the lead was dressed in a bright red dress, riding a chrysanthemum and green horse, and was walking the dog. There are two gray and black fine dogs tied to the rope, but it is the frightening Princess Zhaode.

The general was still immersed in his tragic fate of losing his reputation and becoming the laughing stock of everyone, so he didn't notice this pedestrian.

The eldest princess was riding a horse, and when she passed by the gate of the imperial brother's palace, she just glanced lazily, and happened to see the general who was devastated and looked unlucky.

The eldest princess stopped the horse in front of the general, bent down, approached and looked carefully, and suddenly laughed loudly: "Hey! Who should I think this palace is! Isn't this the general of the hussars?"

When the general heard the voice, before he raised his head, he trembled three times, and saluted tremblingly: "My minister...has met His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."

The eldest princess sat up straight in disgust. Ever since Emperor Ming wanted to betroth her to the general four years ago, she had no affection for the general at all—although the general finally bravely admitted his emotional orientation and stopped Jing in time. Emperor Ming's head was hot, but the feeling of disgust was deeply rooted in the eldest princess's heart, and she couldn't pull it out.

"Why are you in a daze here? After meeting with the emperor, why don't you hurry back home," the eldest princess laughed suddenly, she really was called a spring flower, bright and beautiful, but it was a pity that the person who said it was called the general If he vomited blood, "Your hot lady, who was bought for only one tael of silver, doesn't know how much you love and love her. How can you let her stay alone in an empty room! Hahahaha!"

After the eldest princess finished speaking, she drove the green horse away cheerfully without looking at his reaction.

The general buried his head deeply, and lamented in his heart, look, is this what the princess who has not left the cabinet should say?

Warming or something, loving or something, staying alone in a vacant room or something, even...even he is not good as a big man
