General Yu Ling

In the palace, the lights are shining brightly, and the lights are just coming on.

All the courtiers came here, chattering and bustling.

Many sons and daughters of aristocratic families also came to the palace with their parents to attend the banquet. Everyone would go up to say hello to Nie Wucheng, chat and make friends. Many people flock to this hot newcomer.

Shao Yu was behind Nie Wucheng with a few attendants, no one was paying attention, his eyebrows were pleasing to the eye, and his expression was all set.

Not long after Nie Wucheng was seated, a thin voice sounded, "The emperor is here! Be quiet, be quiet!"

Everyone started to sit upright and stopped talking and laughing.

Afterwards, the current emperor Ji Tengxu arrived with his queen Chu Yue.

Although the emperor is over half a hundred years old, his aura still remains the same. When he glanced at you lightly, he felt extremely oppressed, and his gaze was as sharp as an eagle's beak.

The queen is gentle and amiable, with a benevolent look.

Behind them is the current emperor's youngest and most beloved younger sister, Princess Shaohua, whose maiden name is Ji Yin.

Ji Yin wears a Su-embroidered Yuehua brocade shirt, a golden cloud-pattern gauze skirt, a lingyun bun on her head, a red agate bead pendant on her forehead, and jade-blue stone pendants on her earlobes.

The face is like a peach blossom, and a sweep of the corners of the eyes reveals all kinds of amorous feelings.The eyes are red phoenix eyes with slanted tails, the two slender eyebrows are slender and lingering, the chin is raised high, revealing the slender and fair neck, and the eyebrows are full of pride, which is beyond words.

Many young masters present did not even dare to take a breath, it was really Ji Yinmei's coercion.

After the guests are seated and the meal is served.The emperor began to speak in a low voice, "Today is the day when Nie Aiqing returned triumphantly. The barbarians have been harassing the people on our border for a long time, making people's lives difficult. However, General Nie only took three years to kill the barbarians. And suppressed the rest of us." The bandits in the state are in chaos. He is really a rare general, it is my luck, it is the luck of the whole Nanling!"

Turning his head to look at Nie Wucheng, "Come on! Nie Aiqing, pour me a cup."

Nie Wucheng stepped out of his seat, knelt down on the ground, and drank the wine in one gulp, "Thank you, Emperor Miao Zan, it is the emperor's blessing that I can come back victoriously without humiliating my mission."

Nie Wucheng, half-kneeling under the hall, is humble and polite, neither humble nor overbearing, handsome and extraordinary.There is no ugly feeling of flattery.

It attracted many young ladies' admiring eyes.

After seeing it, Ji Tengxu felt very satisfied, and leaned over to ask his younger sister, "Shao Hua, what do you think of Nie Wucheng? He is not married yet, gentle and polite, well-versed in civil and military, knowledgeable and interesting, he is indeed a very good young man. You How do you feel?"

Ji Yin smiled lightly, "Brother Huang, this General Nie didn't say anything, why do you ask me what I want. If he doesn't want to, wouldn't it be difficult for him?"

The Empress Chu Yue next to her said, "Shaohua, what are you talking about. No matter how good Nie Wucheng is, it's just a general. You are a princess, you have a noble status, and your country is beautiful. It's such a great thing, how can Nie Wucheng not?" Yes, if you don’t want to, then you don’t know how to praise.”

Ji Yin finally took on some of the shyness of a young daughter's family, and there were sparkles in his beautiful eyes.

Even so, he is still proud and elegant, inviolable.

"Okay...then go with what the emperor wants."

Ji Tengxu nodded, and looked at Nie Wucheng, "Nie Aiqing, you are also a handsome young man, and you are not too young, so what kind of girl do you like?"

Nie Wucheng replied truthfully, "I still don't have any."

Ji Tengxu was very happy, "Then, what do you think of my beloved sister, Princess Shaohua?" There was a sense of warning in these words.

Nie Wucheng suddenly realized that the emperor wanted to marry Princess Shaohua to him, and he was a little distressed.

I really don't have much interest in this proud and beautiful princess, and I have only fought for a few years. If I get married early, it will be a burden, so I am hesitant and don't know how to speak.

Shao Yu, who was standing quietly by the side, agreed, his eyes widened, his pupils shrank, and his hands shook uncontrollably.

Shao Yu pinched his waist and abdomen and forced himself to calm down.

This appearance attracted frequent glances from the attendants nearby.After Shao Yu calmed down, he felt ashamed, as lifeless as a walking corpse.

I was just thinking, ah, this day came so quickly, I didn't leave myself with a single bit of delusion.

Yeah, what's wrong with that?There is no one more suitable for the noble princess who is overwhelmed by the country and the city, and the general who is both civil and military.I'm just a stinky mouse in the corner who can't see the light, I can only hide in the dark place and think despicably.

Shao Yu lost his mind and kept thinking until he heard the man's voice, "I am really immoral and incompetent, so I can't afford this grace. I am just a reckless man who fights on the battlefield all day, and loses his life someday." , it is really not good to drag down the princess. Everything is the fault of the minister, please think twice, the emperor."

Ji Yin is such an exquisite person, when he hesitated in Nie Wucheng, he could see his reluctance.

Ji Yin's arrogance does not allow her to please a man.Besides, I am a princess, if I really want to find a husband, am I afraid that I won't find a man who loves me better than Nie Wucheng?

Similarly, she didn't bother to make things difficult for anyone.When Nie Wucheng refused to marry her, the emperor's brother would be furious. Thinking of this, she stood up.

"Well, Nie Wucheng, is it great to have a few military achievements? But a reckless man, do you really think that this princess will take a fancy to you? You are so self-righteous, and you don't even know what you are! You don't want to marry, This princess doesn't even want to marry!"

Nie Wucheng took a deep look at Ji Yin, bowed his head and knelt down, "I know I was wrong."

Nie Wucheng understood that the princess was justifying himself, and was grateful in his heart.

When Ji Yin said this, Ji Tengxu didn't want to pursue anything further, but his face was very unhappy.

But Shao Yu seemed to have died once, feeling lost and drenched in sweat.Ups and downs, like a dream, with a feeling of unreality.

All the people present were very surprised by Nie Wucheng's refusal to marry him. That was Lord Shao Huajun who was regarded as the jewel in the palm of the emperor. How dare he?

But some people think that Nie Wucheng is very courageous and will not be trapped by the love of his children, so he will definitely make great achievements in the future.

In just one night, news of the refusal to marry spread throughout the capital.

But the matter was suppressed by the emperor, and changed to the princess refusing to marry Nie Wucheng.

Nie Wucheng didn't care about this, thinking it should be done.The Princess is the Ninth Five-Year Honorable One, if the news of her refusal to marry gets out, it will damage the royal family's face.

People have nothing to do, so they joked after dinner, saying that the princess is really too far-sighted.

The whole story of this incident was known to Lord Nie and Mrs. Nie that night.

Mrs. Nie was worried and complained to her son, "Wucheng, even if you don't like the princess, don't be so lenient. Even if you pretend to agree now, it's not too late to take the opportunity to shirk it later. Why, why are you... Hey! "

Compared to Mrs. Nie, Marquis Nie was very indifferent, rubbing food and feeding the fish while saying, "The emperor is definitely not a small-hearted person. The emperor will not embarrass Wucheng in such a matter, so don't worry."

Madam Nie was so angry that she kicked her husband hard.

"You are old and immortal! You only know how to feed fish and talk sarcastic all day long, and you don't care about your son or daughter, just like my children are my own. Tomorrow I will go back to my mother's house, old and immortal!"

Nie Houye covered his thigh in pain, his long gray beard trembled aggrievedly, "Ma'am, why do you say that, I care about my children very much, for the marriage in Wucheng, I choose good girls at home every day, you……"

Nie Wucheng hastily comforted him, "Mother, the emperor didn't punish me for anything, it's because the princess is magnanimous and didn't care about me, I think the emperor will figure it out, the princess is suitable for a better person."

Madam Nie sighed, "I hope so."

Nie Houye breathed a sigh of relief, "Ma'am, I..."

"I still have to go back to my mother's house, Wucheng, take good care of yourself these few days, I can't see or worry about this old man."

Marquis Nie: "..."
