The general said she doesn't take a wife
Chapter 99 Returning to Beijing·Part [-]
Lin Aoxue held Yunyan in her arms, gently stroking Yunyan's hair with her not-so-generous palms, dispelling the heavy pain in the latter's heart.Yun Yan's emotions gradually calmed down, but she still couldn't restrain herself, sobbing twice from time to time, Lin Aoxue squatted down, held Yun Yan's cheeks in her hands, and gently wiped away the lingering tears on her face, and then said:
"My family's Yan'er looks so pretty even when she cries."
Yunyan was angry, Lin Aoxue was still teasing her at this time, she was rarely ashamed, she punched Lin Aoxue's shoulder with a powder fist, but Lin Aoxue laughed, grabbed Yunyan, hugged her by the waist, and twirled in the room:
"It's getting late, it's time for us to rest!"
It was just after You Hour, so it wasn't too late, but the winter days were short, and it was already dark outside at this moment, Lin Aoxue took advantage of the time difference and played tricks again.
She put Yunyan on the bed, turned around and went to the kitchen to fetch some warm water and came back, carefully wiped off the tears on Yunyan's face, cleaned up briefly, and coaxed Yunyan to rest with a warm voice.Yunyan cried for a long time just now, she had a severe headache and felt sleepy, so she didn't refuse Lin Aoxue's kindness.
After tidying up, Lin Aoxue scrubbed it herself, then kicked off her shoes and climbed onto the bed to hold Yunyan in her arms, while gently pressing Yunyan's forehead to relieve the pain, while whispering something about what she said in the storybook today Some interesting stories I saw, in such a warm environment, Yunyan quickly closed her eyes and fell asleep, her breathing became steady and long.
Lin Aoxue lay sideways beside Yunyan, staring softly at Yunyan's sleeping face, deeply in love, she couldn't help stretching out her hand, and gently stroked Yunyan's cheek.In her sleep, Yunyan was like a lazy cat, rubbing against Lin Aoxue's palm from time to time, Lin Aoxue had a gentle smile in her eyes, and her heart was soft, as if stuffed with cotton.
She really couldn't understand why someone would have the heart to hurt Yunyan. Not only is Yunyan good-looking, she is also extremely gentle in temperament. Such a good girl deserves to be loved by thousands of people, but her life experience is extremely rough. It is clear that she has nothing to do with Bei Chenling No, she should also be an upright princess, but what Beichen congratulated her was only endless indifference and hurt.
Lin Aoxue's eyes turned cold, this account will be settled slowly in the future.
The night was silent, Lin Aoxue didn't know when she fell asleep, when she opened her eyes again, there was a hazy white light outside, it was almost dawn.
Even if she is addicted to gentleness, she should be restrained, Lin Aoxue sighed in her heart, yesterday was enough to indulge herself, today, she should take care of the military affairs and make some preparations for returning to Beijing after the Lantern Festival.
Just as she was thinking about the affairs in the army, Yun Yan also woke up with her eyes wide open. The latter blinked in a rare bewilderment, then came back to her senses, gently pushed Lin Aoxue, and said in a low voice:
"Should you go back today?"
The corner of Lin Aoxue's mouth twitched, pretending to be wronged:
"Yan'er, why are you driving me away so impatiently?"
Yunyan burst out laughing, the sorrow of last night was swept away, she tightened the quilt around her body, took the initiative to get into Lin Aoxue's arms, and said to her with a smile:
"Where can it be? You can have breakfast here before leaving."
Lin Aoxue looked up to the sky and sighed, she knew that Yan'er was reluctant to let her go, at least she would have to stay for another hour.
Under Yun Yan's urging, Lin Aoxue got up from the bed with a bitter face, but fortunately this time Yun Yan didn't drive Lin Aoxue out of the bed like before, so she didn't get up by herself. She got up quite early today and went to the bed in person. The kitchen started cooking and made some breakfast for Lin Aoxue.
Lin Aoxue felt warm in her heart after eating the breakfast made by Yunyan herself. Taking advantage of the full daylight, Lin Aoxue bid farewell to Yunyan, sneaked out of the small courtyard as usual, and went back to the barracks.
As soon as she returned to the barracks, she immediately sent someone to find Xue Guan, asked Xue Guan about Pei Qing's current situation, and then gave Xue Guan the list of the general's secret agents, notifying Xue Renyi that he could act against the secret agents, and asked to be in Within ten days, all the spies in the general camp were brought under control.
She can't clean up all these people in such a short period of time, otherwise it will definitely cause turmoil in the army. The best time to clean up is to wait for the war to start. At that time, there will be many dead in the army. It will not attract the attention of others.
In addition, some unknown people came to look for Lin Aoxue and asked her about the whereabouts of Pei Qing, Yu Jingshan, Li Qun and others. The senior military officers, who are vigilant against Lin Aoxue not to be cunning, are extremely concerned about the situation of the generals at the same level in the army, and it is difficult to dismiss them.
But both Li Qun and Yu Jingshan died because of Xuanhe, she couldn't directly say that these two were spies in the army, if someone with a heart listened to it, there might be troubles, Lin Aoxue thought about it, and said that there were important things in these people The secret mission of the mission should not be leaked, and it will be prevaricated for the time being. When the military is cleared up, no matter how rebellious these people are, they should see the situation clearly and dare not speak up.
Ten days is a bit rushed, but Lin Aoxue must arrange these things before rushing to the capital. She must bring some old people with her when she returns to Beijing this time, and it is best to get in touch with the rest of the old people in Beijing.
After arranging these matters, the imperial decree from Jingzhong was delivered to Xingbeiguan. The eunuch who delivered the decree was not as panicked as last time, because the new general of the three armies had written a document to surrender to the royal family, so, This time when he came back, he was full of arrogance, not at all worried that Lin Aoxue would threaten his life.
The eunuch traveled all the way to Xingbei Pass. After expressing his intention outside the pass, Lin Aoxue ordered the city gate to be lowered to let the eunuch enter the city. Then the carriage carrying the order came outside the barracks. Lin Aoxue led the crowd to receive the order. The eunuch took a look at Lin Aoxue, surprised Will be young, immediately retracted his eyes, unfolded the imperial decree in his hand, and read aloud:
"By God, the emperor ordered Lin Aoxue, the general stationed at Xingbeiguan, to understand righteousness and love the people like a son. He made great contributions to beheading the rebel general Bei Chenlong. He specially named Lin Aoxue a third-rank general and granted the tiger charm of the three armies. After the Lantern Festival, he came to Beijing to report his duties. Here it is!"
Lin Aoxue respectfully accepted the decree, but there was a dark glow in her eyes. Bei Chenhe's hand could already control the emperor's decision. This imperial decree was obviously issued under Bei Chenhe's instruction.
Now that Lin Aoxue has expelled the chaotic party in the army and controlled the forces left by Xuanhe, the entire military force in the northern border is under Lin Aoxue's control. Whether or not there is such an imperial decree does not have much impact on Lin Aoxue's real power, but the emperor must There is this imperial decree to declare that Lin Aoxue is Beichen's subject, and it also shows that Beijing and China recognize Lin Aoxue's status as a general of the three armies.
Lin Aoxue thought about it again, and then invited all the remaining generals in Xingbei Pass to the army tent to discuss matters.
There is no long holiday in the army. The New Year's Eve and the New Year's Day were released for two days. These generals have all returned to the barracks today. They have received Yunyan's favor and received treatment from Yunyan. As time went by, she became convinced of Lin Aoxue, the new general, and gradually no one made trouble anymore, and began to settle down.
In addition, with today's imperial decree, Lin Aoxue has completely secured her position, and there is no voice against her in the army.
This time when Lin Aoxue summoned them, they lost their arrogance and showed great respect. Lin Aoxue glanced over the faces of several of them since they sat down, and said straight to the point:
"I will call you here today because I have something important to discuss with you."
As she spoke, she mentioned that she had received a transfer order from Jingzhong, and she was going to the capital to report on her duties. The news of Beijing Zhongzhong's dispatch had already reached the hands of all the generals, and they were all aware of it, so Lin Aoxue didn't need to go into details.Lin Aoxue told them to guard the Xingbei Pass carefully before the beginning of spring. Once there is an important military situation, they must send it back to the capital as soon as possible, and she will come back as soon as possible.
In addition, she discussed with the generals about the defense of Xingbei Pass, and formulated some countermeasures against the possible actions of the barbarians after the beginning of spring. Lin Aoxue was not relieved until everything was arranged properly.
As the day of the Lantern Festival was approaching, Xue Guan came back to reply that more than a hundred people in the army were under surveillance. Lin Aoxue breathed a sigh of relief and asked Xue Guan to tell Xue Renyi that if there was any change in these people, they intended to contact Xuanhe. , just erase it directly.
She asked Xue Guan to tidy up, and went to Beijing with her after the Lantern Festival, and picked up a few veterans from the old army to follow. In general, the necessary ostentation still needs to be done, so she counted another [-] soldiers and horses, and headed to the capital together.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, Lin Aoxue went to the hospital to bid farewell to Yunyan. Yunyan didn't give any more detailed instructions. What should be brought to Lin Aoxue's attention had already been instructed, so she only allowed Lin Aoxue to drink two more glasses of wine for the first time in the night. When they were lingering on the couch until the third watch, they embraced each other and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Lin Aoxue didn't wake Yunyan up when she left, but when she got up, she leaned over and kissed Yunyan lightly on the forehead.
[-] soldiers and horses were dispatched, and Lin Aoxue personally led the troops, and set off from Xingbei Pass to the capital.
The snow on the official road in the northern border hadn't melted yet, and snow piled up in some places, blocking the way. Lin Aoxue ordered the soldiers in the team to clear the snow to clear the way, and it took nearly a month to return to the capital from the northern border.
Entering Beijing this time is very different from the last time she came to the capital. She led the soldiers and horses to stop outside the capital, and immediately an eunuch came out from the city, saying that she would take Lin Aoxue to the newly built General's Mansion. Generals of the third rank can have their own mansions in the capital. When the emperor issued an order to appoint Lin Aoxue as a general during the New Year's Eve, he bought her a separate courtyard in the capital by the way.
An army of tens of thousands of people was not allowed to enter the capital, so Lin Aoxue only led more than a hundred people including Xue Guan to follow behind the eunuch, cross the noisy and bustling long street in the capital, and walked towards her mansion.Everything on the street is the same as it was a year ago, there are no obvious differences.
Lin Aoxue's mansion is not too far from the imperial palace. It is two streets away from the palace. It is in a better position on the side street. The house is newly built. The main entrance is listed as the General's Mansion. It is solemn and solemn. Not too bad.
Lin Aoxue led the people in, and the eunuch said to let Lin Aoxue rest for the night, and when the next morning, someone will come to invite him into the palace.
She once had the experience of going to the palace to report on her duties, so Lin Aoxue was familiar with the way, and she was not in a panic. She thanked the eunuch who led the way, and took over the land deed and the deeds of selling the lives of more than a dozen servants in the courtyard from the housekeeper. This house belongs to Lin Aoxue up.
Lin Aoxue never thought that she could get such a reward when she came to the capital, but she didn't feel very happy. The stewards and servants in this courtyard should all be from Bei Chenhe. He was always under Bei Chenhe's watchful eye, and his every move was monitored.
Lin Aoxue's heart was clear about this, but she absolutely couldn't point it out. She first settled down all the more than a hundred people she had brought to the courtyard, and then called the housekeeper to come up to her and inquired about the situation in the courtyard.
After asking a few simple words, Lin Aoxue's eyes flickered slightly, and she asked again:
"Does the lord have any other orders today?"
The housekeeper saluted Lin Aoxue respectfully, and then said:
"The prince invites the general to have a small gathering at the palace tonight."
Lin Aoxue understood, and nodded in response:
"Okay, Ben will come to the door on time."
It seems that Bei Chenhe has a deep control over the situation in central Beijing. He can put all his people in such a big mansion under the eyes of the emperor, and he can also let Lin Aoxue go to his mansion first before entering the palace. get together.
Acting so blatantly without worrying about the emperor's investigation, it can be seen that after not seeing him for a year, Bei Chenhe can cover the sky with one hand in the capital.
On the evening of the same day, at dinner time, Lin Aoxue went to the palace with gifts and visited the door. The steward of the palace saw that it was Lin Aoxue, and immediately led Lin Aoxue into the palace sideways.
There was a dinner party in the palace, and there were not too many guests. About six or seven people came, all of whom were nobles from the capital. When Lin Aoxue arrived, the housekeeper sang a sentence outside the hall:
"General Lin is here."
Everyone's gazes immediately turned to the gate, and landed on Lin Aoxue. Bei Chenhe also raised his eyes and looked over. He immediately got up and strode towards Lin Aoxue, laughing loudly:
"Oh, isn't this our General Lin? A rare visitor!"
Lin Aoxue walked into the hall, and bowed respectfully to Beichen:
"The last general, Lin Aoxue, pays homage to the prince."
Bei Chenhe stepped forward to help Lin Aoxue up, patted her shoulder again, and said with a smile:
"General Lin is young and promising, and this king appreciates it a lot, don't be so formal!"
Lin Aoxue was careful and nodded in agreement:
"Yes, I will understand at the end."
Bei Chenhe exchanged a few words with Lin Aoxue, and then invited her to sit down. Lin Aoxue greeted the civil servants present one by one before going to the vacant seat. Seeing this, Bei Chenhe introduced some of the high-ranking officials among them to her. Seeing that Bei Chenhe attached so much importance to Lin Aoxue, the courtiers already had some calculations in their hearts, so they all stood up and returned the salute with enthusiasm.
Lin Aoxue memorized the faces and names of these people one by one in her heart. Everyone here was a hindrance to her revenge.
"Alright, since General Lin is here, let's start today's dinner."
Bei Chenhe led Lin Aoxue around the hall, and after introducing all the officials present to Lin Aoxue, he announced the start of the dinner.Lin Aoxue sat in her seat well-behaved, looked around, but did not see Bei Chenling.
She quickly retracted her gaze. There was nothing special about the dinner party. Bei Chenhe's intention should be to allow Lin Aoxue and the few ministers who were close to him to meet first, and to avoid accidentally hurting her own people if she made any moves in the future.
The banquet lasted for an hour. After several rounds of drinking and listening to piano music as usual, this small gathering was considered to be over. When the banquet was over, Bei Chenhe kept Lin Aoxue and asked Lin Aoxue to go with him to the study to discuss matters.
Lin Aoxue drank a little wine, but she had a good capacity for alcohol, and she didn't show any hint of alcohol at the moment. Bei Chenhe admired her very much, with a half-smile in her eyes all the time. When Lin Aoxue followed him into the study, secretly After Wei closed the study door, Bei Chenhe took the lead in saying:
"Aoxue, you performed well in the northern region this year."
Lin Aoxue looked respectful, suddenly knelt down on one knee, and asked:
"My lord, you will be guilty at the end."
Bei Chenhe showed two points of surprise on his face, and asked:
"What's your fault?"
Lin Aoxue lowered her head, although she was pleading guilty, her attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, and she replied:
"Reporting to the lord, at the beginning of the year, the lord told the general to take good care of the fifth prince, but later the fifth prince was assassinated in the camp, and Bei Chenlong refused to let people visit him. The general was powerless and unable to understand the injury of the fifth prince. He died in the army, and the last general failed to contribute to this, so the last general is guilty, and I ask the prince to punish him."
Bei Chenhe laughed when he heard the words, he shook his head with a smile, and said:
"This king thinks it's a big event. The fifth prince has no luck. The border war is urgent. Life and death are up to God. This is an accident, so how can you blame it? Well, get up, it's not your fault, it's okay."
With Bei Chen's congratulatory words, Lin Aoxue breathed a sigh of relief. She bowed again and said:
"Thank you, my lord."
Then he stood up, but he saw Bei Chenhe walked to the back of the table and sat down, holding a piece of white jade in his hand to play with, and said to Lin Aoxue with a smile:
"Aoxue, to be honest, you took the position of general in just one year and controlled the power of the three armies, which is really beyond my expectation. I really did not misunderstand the person at the beginning."
When Lin Aoxue heard the words, she didn't take credit for it, she lowered her head in a very humble manner, and replied:
"If there is no love from the prince, there will be no future. The grace of the prince to know and meet will never be forgotten."
Bei Chenhe raised his eyes to look at her, there was always an invisible smile in his deep eyes, and he looked at Lin Aoxue scrutinizingly.When his eyes fell on Lin Aoxue's face, Lin Aoxue's heart always had an uncontrollable killing intent, but she was forced to suppress it, and she couldn't even make a fist.
"Oh, Aoxue is being humble. It is true that I have given you some help, but your ability has far exceeded my expectations. I have to say that you are very good and excellent. This time I have called you to the capital. , intends to betroth my beloved daughter to you, what do you think?"
The author has something to say: Oh, what is Ermao doing now~

"My family's Yan'er looks so pretty even when she cries."
Yunyan was angry, Lin Aoxue was still teasing her at this time, she was rarely ashamed, she punched Lin Aoxue's shoulder with a powder fist, but Lin Aoxue laughed, grabbed Yunyan, hugged her by the waist, and twirled in the room:
"It's getting late, it's time for us to rest!"

On the evening of the same day, at dinner time, Lin Aoxue went to the palace with gifts and visited the door. The steward of the palace saw that it was Lin Aoxue, and immediately led Lin Aoxue into the palace sideways.
There was a dinner party in the palace, and there were not too many guests. About six or seven people came, all of whom were nobles from the capital. When Lin Aoxue arrived, the housekeeper sang a sentence outside the hall:
"General Lin is here."
Everyone's gazes immediately turned to the gate, and landed on Lin Aoxue. Bei Chenhe also raised his eyes and looked over. He immediately got up and strode towards Lin Aoxue, laughing loudly:
"Oh, isn't this our General Lin? A rare visitor!"
Lin Aoxue walked into the hall, and bowed respectfully to Beichen:
"The last general, Lin Aoxue, pays homage to the prince."
Bei Chenhe stepped forward to help Lin Aoxue up, patted her shoulder again, and said with a smile:
"General Lin is young and promising, and this king appreciates it a lot, don't be so formal!"
Lin Aoxue was careful and nodded in agreement:
"Yes, I will understand at the end."
Bei Chenhe exchanged a few words with Lin Aoxue, and then invited her to sit down. Lin Aoxue greeted the civil servants present one by one before going to the vacant seat. Seeing this, Bei Chenhe introduced some of the high-ranking officials among them to her. Seeing that Bei Chenhe attached so much importance to Lin Aoxue, the courtiers already had some calculations in their hearts, so they all stood up and returned the salute with enthusiasm.
Lin Aoxue memorized the faces and names of these people one by one in her heart. Everyone here was a hindrance to her revenge.
"Alright, since General Lin is here, let's start today's dinner."
Bei Chenhe led Lin Aoxue around the hall, and after introducing all the officials present to Lin Aoxue, he announced the start of the dinner.Lin Aoxue sat in her seat well-behaved, looked around, but did not see Bei Chenling.
She quickly retracted her gaze. There was nothing special about the dinner party. Bei Chenhe's intention should be to allow Lin Aoxue and the few ministers who were close to him to meet first, and to avoid accidentally hurting her own people if she made any moves in the future.
The banquet lasted for an hour. After several rounds of drinking and listening to piano music as usual, this small gathering was considered to be over. When the banquet was over, Bei Chenhe kept Lin Aoxue and asked Lin Aoxue to go with him to the study to discuss matters.
Lin Aoxue drank a little wine, but she had a good capacity for alcohol, and she didn't show any hint of alcohol at the moment. Bei Chenhe admired her very much, with a half-smile in her eyes all the time. When Lin Aoxue followed him into the study, secretly After Wei closed the study door, Bei Chenhe took the lead in saying:
"Aoxue, you performed well in the northern region this year."
Lin Aoxue looked respectful, suddenly knelt down on one knee, and asked:
"My lord, you will be guilty at the end."
Bei Chenhe showed two points of surprise on his face, and asked:
"What's your fault?"
Lin Aoxue lowered her head, although she was pleading guilty, her attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, and she replied:
"Reporting to the lord, at the beginning of the year, the lord told the general to take good care of the fifth prince, but later the fifth prince was assassinated in the camp, and Bei Chenlong refused to let people visit him. The general was powerless and unable to understand the injury of the fifth prince. He died in the army, and the last general failed to contribute to this, so the last general is guilty, and I ask the prince to punish him."
Bei Chenhe laughed when he heard the words, he shook his head with a smile, and said:
"This king thinks it's a big event. The fifth prince has no luck. The border war is urgent. Life and death are up to God. This is an accident, so how can you blame it? Well, get up, it's not your fault, it's okay."
With Bei Chen's congratulatory words, Lin Aoxue breathed a sigh of relief. She bowed again and said:
"Thank you, my lord."
Then he stood up, but he saw Bei Chenhe walked to the back of the table and sat down, holding a piece of white jade in his hand to play with, and said to Lin Aoxue with a smile:
"Aoxue, to be honest, you took the position of general in just one year and controlled the power of the three armies, which is really beyond my expectation. I really did not misunderstand the person at the beginning."
When Lin Aoxue heard the words, she didn't take credit for it, she lowered her head in a very humble manner, and replied:
"If there is no love from the prince, there will be no future. The grace of the prince to know and meet will never be forgotten."
Bei Chenhe raised his eyes to look at her, there was always an invisible smile in his deep eyes, and he looked at Lin Aoxue scrutinizingly.When his eyes fell on Lin Aoxue's face, Lin Aoxue's heart always had an uncontrollable killing intent, but she was forced to suppress it, and she couldn't even make a fist.
"Oh, Aoxue is being humble. It is true that I have given you some help, but your ability has far exceeded my expectations. I have to say that you are very good and excellent. This time I have called you to the capital. , intends to betroth my beloved daughter to you, what do you think?"
