Chapter 124 Li Wuling has a daughter, Yan Qing!
Li Wuling shook his head and smiled bitterly. Chen Changan was really a young and inexperienced person.
To be honest, even Li Wuling wouldn't dare to say that he defeated Tiefutu, so how could Chen Changan do so?
Zhang Tianxiong was even more disdainful when he heard this.
“Ninth Prince, the old general is here today, I will let you go!”
"I want to tell you that the battlefield is not a joke. Even though it's just an exercise, people will still die!"
"The best option is for you to go find the prince and beg for his forgiveness on your knees!"
Zhang Tianxiong waved his hand and Tiefutu stood up.
"Once the battlefield begins, it will be too late. That's all I have to say!"
Zhang Tianxiong ordered his men to retrieve the beheading knife, and left Chen Chang'an with Tiefutu with an arrogant look.
Chen Changan looked at Zhang Tianxiong's back and just gritted his teeth and sneered.
He got out of the car and knelt in the dust before Li Wuling: "Old General, thank you for your help, otherwise Chen Changan would be in danger."
Civil officials and military generals have disliked each other since ancient times, but Chen Changan actually knelt down to him.
Li Wuling shook his head and laughed, then helped Chen Changan up: "Zhuangyuanlang, I didn't save you on purpose, I just happened to be passing by."
"Come on, if you don't mind me being a rough guy, why don't you have a couple of drinks with me?"
Chen Changan originally wanted to go home and change his clothes, but he didn't expect these things to happen.
Gifted by the elders, dare not to give up.
Chen Changan clasped his fists and said, "Please trouble you, General."
Li Wuling smiled and brought Chen Changan to his general's mansion.
Li Wuling was an honest man throughout his life. There was nothing else in his mansion except many servants, and it looked very cold.
The old general sat in the middle and waved to Chen Changan: "Simple meals and a glass of muddy wine, I wonder if the number one scholar is used to it?"
Chen Changan shook his head and chuckled.
There were only a few side dishes and a jar of wine, which was indeed not in line with the identity of an old general.
"Old General, please stop laughing at me."
Chen Changan sat opposite the old general and said bitterly: "The old general knows my identity. I used to be the ninth son of the King of Huainan."
"But three new clothes in six years, one steamed bun a day, it's good enough to fill my stomach, how can I say whether I'm used to it or not?"
Chen Changan took a bite of the vegetables, his face full of satisfaction.
Li Wuling was curious: "The King of Huainan lives a wealthy life, how could he eat only one steamed bun a day? I don't believe it."
"It's true. Eating steamed buns is good enough. Most of the time, I have to compete with dogs for food."
It could be because of Li Wuling’s rescue, or it could be that he had never opened his heart to anyone.
Chen Changan told everything, bit by bit, about his experiences in the Huainan Palace over the past six years.
After an hour, Chen Changan's face turned red.
"Don't I want to be the ninth prince, surrounded by people? I want to be like that too, even in my dreams!"
"But the Huainan Palace is a place where people are eaten. I live there worse than a dog!"
"So I want to defect and never go back to that home!"
Chen Changan drank it all in one gulp and roared softly.
Li Wuling was a little annoyed when he heard this. He didn't know how to comfort Chen Changan.
"I heard that after the Imperial College Competition was over, the Princess of Huainan knelt down for you... Maybe they all regretted it and want you to go home?"
"Old General, you have been deceived!"
Chen Changan shook his head and laughed: "Chen Hongluo only asked me to go home again and again because I had cut off my relationship with King Huainan and she lost face!"
"It's fine if I don't go back, but once I go back..."
"They will become even crazier towards me. I can imagine that!"
The old general was suddenly speechless and shook his head without saying anything.
He is not Chen Changan, so he doesn't know these details and it is difficult for him to say.
The old general held up his wine glass and said thoughtfully, "No matter what, you saw Iron Buddha today. He was extremely fierce!"
"If they are sincere in dealing with you, how sure are you?"
"I'm afraid even the Golden Armor Guards can't stop it."
Chen Changan was a little drunk and propped up his chin with his hand: "I don't plan to use the Golden Armor Guards."
"No, no plan?" The old general was stunned.
Chen Changan is just a scholar and has no real strength of his own. The emperor lent him the Golden Armor Guards, but he said he had no plans?
Isn't this seeking death?
"I'll use the power of the Golden Armor Guards. Even if I defeat the Iron Pagoda, they will definitely not accept it."
"I want to defeat the King of Huainan fairly and squarely on my own!"
Chen Changan patted his chest and shouted.
"But, but... Hey!"
The old general shook his head with a headache: "To tell you the truth, I went to the palace today to discuss the competition with the emperor and the King of Huainan."
"The background of the competition is that two countries are at war. Each of them has ten warships. They occupy Dacheng Island and Xiaocheng Island in Weishan Lake. They are given four hours to prepare, and then they fight."
"The first one to take down the other side's flag wins..."
Chen Changan stood up drunkenly and waved his hands repeatedly.
"Old General, you are drunk and leaked the secret."
"Chang'an doesn't want to know how the emperor arranged it. He only knows that this battle is a matter of life and death. I will go all out!"
"Today's sky is bright, I'm going to go back and rest."
"After I defeat the Iron Pagoda, I will drink with the old general!"
The old general wanted to keep him, but Chen Changan stood up unsteadily.
Perhaps he was moved, Chen Changan sang loudly.
"..."
"When I achieve success and fame, I will return home and accompany you in 30,000 drunken and laughing nights!"
"No need to complain about parting, drinking hard has always been a special experience."
"Tonight I am sending you home, the lights are cold, the river is full of tears, and the sheep man's surname is Yang..."
"Old General, I'm leaving!"
Watching Chen Changan leave in a graceful manner, the old general sighed indifferently.
He reached out to pour himself a glass of wine, but the jar was empty. Most of the wine had been drunk by Chen Changan.
The door curtain at the back of the house was opened, and a fragrant breeze blew in.
Her eyebrows are like distant ink, her eyes are like autumn waves, her lips are red without any makeup, and her every frown and smile is touching, just like a fairy walking out of a painting.
The woman held the wine jar, shook her head and said, "Dad, you are already drunk."
Seeing the woman caring about his health, the old general just sighed softly.
This woman is his daughter-in-law, named Yan Qing.
Four years ago, there was a war in the north. I planned to take my youngest son with me to see the war, but he insisted on going to the battlefield.
The old general naturally disagreed.
The younger son also got angry and told the old general: "Other soldiers can go to the battlefield, why can't I?"
"I am a son of a general. I cannot be a Taiping Marquis. I will not be a coward!"
A hemp rope always breaks at the thinnest part, and bad luck always strikes the unfortunate people.
The youngest son died in the battlefield, and the old general's hair turned white overnight!
But Yan Qing didn't care about all this. On the day she returned to the court, she wore a bright red wedding dress and married into the Li family!
Become a widow who is laughed at by everyone in Baidi City!
"Yan'er, father wants to ask you something." The old general declined Yan Qing's support and said through gritted teeth.
"You have been hiding in the back of the house and listening for a long time. The top scholar... is very pitiful."
"You are a few years older than him, why don't you be my daughter and I marry you to him?"
The old general planned to kill two birds with one stone.
Marrying Yan Qing off will not waste her life.
Moreover, if Yan Qing agrees, he can say it tomorrow. King Huainan will be considerate of his own face and at least leave Chen Changan a way to survive, right?
Yan Qing blushed and pouted, "Dad, I'm the daughter-in-law of the Li family, how can I marry someone else?"
"Besides, I am three years older than the top scholar. Does he need a mother?"
Li Wuling still shook his head, and Yan Qing forcibly helped the old general to stand up.
"The war in the north is undecided, and a counterattack could occur at any time."
"I want to assist my father and avenge my husband. Don't mention anything else."
The old general was speechless.
Fighting is a man's job. Although this daughter has great military talent, how can a woman hang out with a group of men?
It’s very distressing, isn’t it?
