Gu Yan's words shocked Bai Lian's eyes widened and blinked, making sure that the scene in front of her was not an illusion, but really happened.

Bai Lian's lips opened and closed, and she wanted to speak several times, but she couldn't organize her words well, and she didn't know what to say.

Refusal?

Gu Yan's words were all said in front, he was going back to the northwest, even if he really wanted to refuse, he had to wait until he came back, and in this year or so, let himself think about it and think about it.

Bai Lian was a little speechless, and after a long time, she asked puzzledly, "Why?" ”

In the ladies in Beijing, there are not a few families who are willing to climb up to this nouveau riche military attaché, Gu Yan has no foundation in the court, and it is time to marry everyone in the family, why did he fall in love with himself?

Bai Lian never thought that this skin could be so good in Gu Yan's eyes, he was different from Yan Shi Nan and others, and he was able to be single at this age, not because he was delayed in the military camp, it only showed that he didn't like women.

"Why?" Gu Yan muttered softly, and then listened to his usual sigh of relief, and said: "Maybe it's for your scheming and good judgment when you were in Pengcheng, or maybe it's for your wit when you were kidnapped, and your patience when you were later taken into custody." ”

Bai Lian listened to Gu Yan speak slowly, his voice was originally cold, but at this moment, there was a trace of tenderness that he didn't even notice, which made the lines of his face soften a lot.

"If you really ask why, none of that is enough to justify." Gu Yan turned around as he spoke, facing Bai Lian directly, and his tone was unprecedentedly solemn, "Girl, the only reason I can convince myself is." I was tempted. ”

Gu Yan's words made Bai Lian's heart jump a few times.

Hearing the words "I'm tempted" in Gu Yan's mouth, Bai Lian felt a little incredible.

For his impression, it is still in his previous life, when he led the troops to break the imperial city in battle armor.

At that time, I was on the city wall, feeling the scorching cold wind, the beacon fires everywhere, and in the change of dynasty, I ended the unforgettable life.

For Gu Yan to break the imperial city later, Bai Lian didn't hate it at all. As he said. If the Son of Heaven is virtuous and the people's livelihood is healthy, where will there be turmoil? He said that the Son of Heaven has no way, and the courtiers are incompetent.

It's not him, it's someone else. White Lotus has always been clear. And. She was glad that the person was Gu Yan. At least those women in the palace will have some dignity.

But this is just Bai Lian's impression of him, not a good impression of her, every ambitious man. Bai Lian didn't think that they could have many children in their hearts.

She doesn't like people like that.

Or all her emotions disappeared with the moon-like boy, who told himself that he was an official to prove that he was capable enough to match the woman he loved, but in the end he fell into power and couldn't extricate himself.

He also told himself that he would not be able to bear to look at the people who had been abandoned by the court! It was also the last time he watched the devastation of mountains and rivers and the displacement of people.

At that time, she thought, probably never again in this life.

Now she realizes that she was wrong.

It should be the time of two lifetimes!

Gu Yan didn't know what Bai Lian had thought, from the slightly red face just now, it gradually turned pale, and her lips were a little dark purple.

Gu Yan's heart was a little fluctuating just now, and when he saw Bai Lian's expression sinking for a minute, he gradually regained his calm.

"It's me who is abrupt." Gu Yan's voice was as steady as ever, and it didn't seem to carry the slightest emotion, "You don't have to have a burden in your heart, if you don't want to, just treat what I said just now as if it doesn't exist." ”

Gu Yan's voice made Bai Lian a little unsure of how to deal with it.

The gaffe just now was not because of Gu Yan's words, but because of him, he thought of all kinds of things in that life.

After thinking about it, Bai Lian didn't come up with a word that could deal with it.

"General Gu is in love by mistake." Bai Lian said in a low voice.

Gu Yan's conditions are very good, not to mention being decent, that is, he is in a high position and has military power, and many people are eager to him, besides, he has the grace to save his life, and now he is thinking clearly with himself, without a trace of coercion and retribution.

Such a man is hard to find.

Bai Lian smiled bitterly in her heart.

In the final analysis, I can't get over the hurdle in my heart!

Gu Yan looked at Bai Lian with her head down, and her words were full of apologies, saying in her heart that it was not false to be lost, just looking at her now, Gu Yan smiled bitterly, and when she spoke, she was not even lost:

"Girl, you and I won't mention today's events, and when we see each other in the future, I still want to see that radiant you."

Gu Yan's voice is soothing, unlike many people, giving people a sense of trust that he can do what he can say.

Bai Lian felt that if she continued to be awkward, she would be a little childish.

She raised her head and gave Gu Yan a smile and said, "General Xie." ”

Without the subtlety just now, Bai Lian would not know what to say, thinking that Gu Yan said that he would return to the northwest next month, so he asked:

"Why did the general return to the northwest at this time?"

Gu Yan knew why Bai Lian asked like this, now that there is no war in the northwest, and the Qiang people will not be able to do anything in the near future, it is superfluous to go back to the northwest to look at it.

"The Qiang people are still there, and the drill of the northwest generals will not be wasted, you must know that raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, if you don't think of danger in peace, when the Qiang people fight again, I am afraid that the fists and feet will be rusty."

Bai Lian nodded, she understood these truths, and when she heard him say that the Qiang tribe was still there, the question buried in her heart was like a fish in her throat, which made her not vomit or be unhappy.

"General, as far as I know, that defeat of the Qiang army can completely annihilate the leader of the Qiang tribe in one fell swoop, I don't know what means he used, but in the end he escaped?"

Gu Yan listened to Bai Lian's question, was stunned for a moment, and then fell silent, and only after a moment did he hear him say in a slightly heavy tone: "Checks and balances." ”

This time, Bai Lian was silent.

Gu Yan knew that she could understand, but she didn't explain.

In fact, Bai Lian had thought clearly early on that letting the leader of the Qiang clan go back was not something that Gu Yan could decide as a pioneer general at that time, it was Uncle Yan's means of raising Kou's self-respect.

If it weren't for the Qiang people disturbing the territory, how could there be a Yan family entrenched in the northwest for decades, if it weren't for the Qiang people not being destroyed, where would the Yan family have the strength to compete with Prince Rui.

It's just that Uncle Yan probably didn't expect that the Qiang people would make a comeback in just three years, and Uncle Yan died in the second war with the Qiang people.

At this time, Bai Lian saw Yuzhu looking not far away, as if looking for herself, so she said to Gu Yan:

"General, my maid is looking for me, so I will take my leave."

Gu Yan nodded, and the white lotus blessed her body and turned around and walked out of the pavilion.

Just as Bai Lian stepped down the steps, she heard Gu Yan say behind her:

"Girl, I'll be back next year, and if you regret it, I'll count today."
