Fang Xuanling also gritted his teeth and said: "General, as soon as we return to Liaodong, we will immediately kill that Chen Ling, and this matter is very likely to be done by him!" Originally, with the current status of the general, coupled with the previous exploits and the current situation that the Holy Lord wants to attack the Turks, His Majesty would not attack the general under normal circumstances. However, the saint would be so spicy, presumably because he got the news from Liaodong. ”

After a pause, he continued: "With the suspicious character of the saint, he must have been suspicious of the general if he was so eager to arrest the general. The reason why the general has not been ordered to be killed on the spot is that it is estimated that there may be no definite evidence for what Chen Ling reflected. On the other hand, it is also possible that he wanted to use the general to coerce the generals of Liaodong to surrender to him after taking the general. ”

Yu Ming nodded, his face was also very ugly, although he hid and hoarded grain and grass, made armor and equipment, and even cultivated craftsmen, and the expansion of armaments and warfare was very secretive. But these things are spread out so big, and there are many people coming and going in Liaodong, and there can be no impermeable walls in the world. Even if Chen Ling doesn't report it, I'm afraid there will be other people who report it.

Moreover, sometimes, there is no need for definite evidence at all, as long as Yang Guang knows that there is such a thing, just a few rumors can put him in danger.

If Yang Guang still believes in him, then Yang Guang will announce this matter and let him come to Dongdu to plead his case, so as to give him a peace of mind. But now, he kept it a secret, and only secretly sent someone to inform Li Yuan that he wanted Li Yuan to arrest him, and he already clearly distrusted him.

And the reason why Yang Guang wanted to keep him and not kill him, and only arrested him, I am afraid that it was not because of pity, but because he wanted to take over the Liaodong Army in peace.

You must know that after Yu Ming left Liaodong, it was easy to take him down, but the 100,000 Liaodong Army was not so easy to take over.

The Liaodong Army was created by him Yuming, and now the people who are in charge of military power and administrative power are all his hardcore confidants. If Yang Guang recklessly sent troops into Liaodong, it could only cause a big battle and cause heavy losses.

Yu Ming didn't say a word at this time, picked up the teacup on the side with his right hand, took a sip of it, and then took a deep breath and said, "Now I'm going to fight with Li Yuan and Yang Guang!" Let's see if they're awesome or if I'm awesome! ”

……

In the original city, Li Yuan's left-behind mansion.

At this time, the sky is almost dusk, and the sun is setting, which is an auspicious time. The main hall of the Left-behind Mansion had already been set up at this time, with a large red carpet in the hall and many large vases filled with flowers in two rows. The walls of the hall are also covered with huge red letters.

Many officials and businessmen in the original city came, plus some generals in the army and relatives of the Li family, and the hall was full of people coming and going, and it was very lively.

The table in the hall was already full of VIPs watching the ceremony, and two rows of young and beautiful maids stood on either side, holding various festive objects from the engagement, with a smile on the corner of their mouths.

The master of ceremonies looked at the time and saw that the hour had come, so he shouted loudly: "The auspicious time has arrived, and two prospective newcomers are invited to appear!" ”

Accompanied by several personal soldiers, Yu Ming walked into the hall wearing a red brocade robe. Opposite him, Li Xiuning also walked out slowly accompanied by two handsome maids.

At this time, Li Xiuning's wind was covered with a glow, revealing a festive red color all over her body. Her graceful posture and elegant and dignified temperament made all the guests feel amazing. Especially her handsome face, her face is really like a peach blossom, her eyes are like autumn water, and her snow skin and jade skin make people feel indescribably delicate and moving.

Yu Ming and Li Xiuning turned around and bowed to each other under the witness of everyone in the hall, and then exchanged engagement gifts.

According to the habit of his previous life, Yu Ming gave a diamond ring imported from Dashi. And Li Xiuning gave him a heart pendant made of white jade according to tradition.

When the two exchanged tokens, Yu Ming could clearly see Li Xiuning's nervous and shy face, and even hear the sound of nervous breathing. Yu Ming was not paying attention, leaned forward slightly, and his forehead accidentally collided with Li Xiuning's phoenix crown.

Then, in the midst of everyone's laughter, he kissed Li Xiuning's handsome face gently, leaving everyone present stunned.

After a while, Fang Xuanling, Fang Xuanzao, and Yu Ming's personal soldiers couldn't help but laugh. And Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji and others glared at Yuming with hatred, obviously dissatisfied with taking advantage of their sister.

"General Yu, Miss, it's time to have a glass of wine!" The master of ceremonies continued.

As soon as her words fell, two maids in purple shirts walked over with two strangely shaped wine glasses.

The last step in the engagement ceremony is the last step in the engagement ceremony, and the glass used is not an ordinary wine glass, but a gourd similar to a papaya, which is cut into two. The two scoop handles, connected by red silk threads, will each hold a scoop handle in front of everyone, fill the scoop with fine wine, and drink half of each. Then the two of them crossed their hands, handed the scoop in their hands to each other's mouths, drank the remaining half, and finally buckled the pair of scoops together, put them in a treasure chest, and kept them.

Drinking this glass of wine not only means that the two sips become one, but also means that they will be together in the future and will never be separated.

The master of ceremonies saw that the two of them had finished drinking a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Yugong and Miss Li Xiuning on their good relationship from now on and forever together!" ”

After that, he smiled and took a red envelope handed over by Yu Ming, and then said loudly: "This is the end of the ceremony, please take a seat!" ”

With the shout of the master of ceremonies, the band at the entrance of the hall began to play, and the guests standing on both sides began to take their seats one after another. At this time, Fang Xuanling and Fang Xuanzao glanced at Yuming's personal soldiers.

Seeing this, some said that they wanted to go to the thatched house, some said that they had met a friend in the front hall and wanted to say a few words, and some said that they would walk around the courtyard and then come to the table, and began to evacuate slowly.

Because they left one after another, and they were all very low-key, they did not attract the attention of Li Yuan and the others.

The hall was full of people who came to toast to Yuming, and after Yuming drank a few glasses, he pretended to be drunk, saying that he wanted to take a break, and then he took the first step to the hut in the backyard to take shelter for a while, so as not to stop others from toasting. Now that it was already a rumor, he didn't dare to get drunk.

He walked into the hut, sat down slowly, and began to calculate the time, according to the previous plan, Fang Xuanzao would take everyone and leave the castle guard mansion in two hours. And he stabilized Li Yuan here, and before the banquet was over, he left through a tunnel that had just been dug up.

But at this moment, he heard the door "creak" open, and a delicate and beautiful girl with pink makeup arrived.

"Xiuning, you're here too!" Yu Ming looked at the girl and couldn't help but be surprised.

At this time, Li Xiuning stared at him and said quietly: "For a man, the time of the gold list nomination and the night of candles in the cave room are known as the first two of the four happy events in life. And for a woman like me, the time to put on the wind crown and choose her future husband is also the most beautiful time in her life. I only hope that the person I chose will treat me sincerely and forget about life for me. ”

The room was silent, and the sound of drinking and fist slashing in the noisy banquet hall had long been shut out of the door. Yu Ming sat on a bench in the room, stared at Li Xiuning's pretty eyes, and slowly stood up.

He raised his right hand and grabbed Li Xiuning's slender white wrist, and his thoughts were like a tide in his heart.

For Li Xiuning, Yuming didn't know much about her before, and the most profound thing about the image was that she discovered her poetry talent, and gave herself a chance to get ahead, and introduced Li Jing, a famous teacher, to make her life colorful from then on.

As for her other situations, Yuming didn't know much, although in the past few months of contact, the relationship between the two has warmed up sharply and become like glue. But it is not so much that he fell in love with Li Xiuning, but rather because of the admiration in his heart for this princess of the Tang Dynasty who led troops to fight in history.

During this period of time, Yu Ming also deliberately inquired about his fiancée from Fang Xuanling, Fang Xuanzao's brothers, and others.

And this investigation allowed Yuming to understand this fiancée a lot through another form. She was born in a family of Guanlongmen valves, the daughter of Tang Guogong, or the niece of Emperor Yang Guang, it can be said that Li Xiuning grew up under the favor of thousands of people since she was a child. And Li Yuan and his wife also like her very much, even to the point of doting. No matter what this daughter asks, she will always be satisfied.

In this case, Li Xiuning also developed a hobby that was different from other women. She doesn't like red makeup and loves arms, she doesn't like needle-embroidered female red since she was a child, in addition to picking poems, she especially likes to dance guns and sticks, and she is also very proficient in horseback archery. Moreover, she is not a few fancy fists and embroidered legs, but a lot of good kung fu.

Today, she is not only skilled in arching and horses, but what is even more rare is that she is also very involved in leading troops to fight and arranging troops, and she can be regarded as half a theorist.

"Yugong, how long do you have to wait?" Li Xiuning lowered her head and let Yuming sit next to her holding hands. But after waiting for a long time, I found that Yuming was just smiling and looking at her, but there was no movement, and I couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

Yu Ming took her into his arms at this time, and said with a smile: "Xiuning, we have just made a big gift and drank a glass of wine, so we can be regarded as a family." In the future, you and I will be one husband and wife, regardless of you and me, in the future, you can call me husband, or Mingming, Brother Ming, don't call me any more duke, adult or general or anything like that. ”

After Li Xiuning heard this, he also pursed his lips and smiled, and that smile could make the winter ice and snow melt.

Yu Ming took Li Xiuning into his arms at this time and hugged him tighter. Feeling the soft delicate body of the beautiful woman in his arms, a faint girlish fragrance came to his nose, making his whole person a little fluttering.

No matter what reason he agreed to Li Yuan's marriage contract before, now that he is officially engaged, he doesn't plan to look forward to the future. How can such a beautiful woman who is kind to himself live up to it?
