Chapter 22: Taking a Concubine for a Husband

Since Mao Wenlong knew that Zi Yan was Hong Chengchou's daughter, he had crooked thoughts. wanted to marry Hong Ziyan in order to win over Hong Chengchou.

After having such a decision, it is natural that Hong Ziyan will not be escorted back to Hancheng, Shaanxi, but the route will remain the same and go straight to Lingshanwei.

I don't know if it's luck, or if there is God to protect Mao Wenlong, since he escaped the sight of the Japanese Kou that night, there have been no accidents on the subsequent voyage.

The ship had already passed through the waters infested by the Japanese and had another three days to reach Lingshanwei, as long as it did not encounter extreme weather changes at sea.

The ship can reach Lingshanwei safely, and the three brothers of the Lijia family are the happiest about it, and they are about to successfully complete the voyage mission. According to the previous agreement with Mao Wenlong, the money earned from this trip was enough for everyone on their ship to spend a month.

The boat is still traveling day and night, and as the destination continues to approach, Mao Wenlong is becoming more and more nervous. It has been two days since I talked to Chen Lan about asking her to help marry Hong Ziyan.

Chen Lan didn't seem to make any progress, every time he asked her how things were going? She always avoided answering, just let him wait patiently.

This matter was originally Mao Wenlong's shame on Chen Lan, and his temper was unbearable, and he didn't dare to urge her, so he could only be anxious in his heart.

If you can't have further development with Hong Ziyan on this ship, if you go to Lingshanwei and go on land. Hong Ziyan will inevitably go to Hancheng alone, and then Mao Wenlong will not even have an excuse to stop her.

It is rare to have such an opportunity, how could Mao Wenlong let himself pass by. Hong Chengchou is a person who has a great influence on his future, a general who will later be the governor of the three provinces, and a figure in charge of suppressing bandits in Shaanxi, Henan and other places.

If you can win him over, Mao Wenlong will definitely save a lot of trouble in the future. Not only that, but you can also use the relationship of the family to quickly expand your strength.

To achieve the goal, the premise is to marry Hong Ziyan, so Mao Wenlong can't wait.

On the deck, Mao Wenlong leaned on the bow of the ship, overlooking the magnificent sea, frowning and contemplating. Chen Jisheng, who has been acting as a personal guard beside him, has been seeing Mao Wenlong absent-mindedly for the past two days, as if he has something on his mind.

As a confidant, Chen Jisheng should not have asked more questions when Mao Wenlong didn't say anything, but he has been looking at Mao Wenlong like this for the past two days, and Chen Jisheng can't bear it anymore.

"Governor, is there anything bothering?" Chen Jisheng plucked up the courage and asked cautiously.

Mao Wenlong retracted his gaze from afar, glanced at the cautious Chen Jisheng, and said with a wry smile: "Naturally, there are troubles, but it's a pity that you men can't help!" ”

"What's so difficult about the governor, even if he speaks, Jisheng will definitely do things for the governor even if he is full of liver and brains!" Chen Jisheng obviously didn't believe that there was nothing in the world that he couldn't do by himself, but he was excited when Mao Wenlong said this.

Mao Wenlong stared at him for a long time, and finally shook his head and said, "This thing can't be done with your life!" ”

"Why?" Chen Jisheng became more and more confused.

Mao Wenlong didn't seem to have the heart to continue explaining, and waved his hand: "There's no why, don't bother me about this." Go see if Xiaolan has come out? ”

Chen Jisheng was still not convinced, but Mao Wenlong obviously had signs of anger, and he didn't dare to entangle, so he had to go obediently to do something.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Chen Lan and the woman from Hong Ziyan walking out of the cabin and coming to the deck. Behind the two of them are Haoda, Haoxiao and Hong Ziyan's only two remaining guards.

"Governor, Madame is here!" Chen Jisheng was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly turned around to tell Mao Wenlong.

When Mao Wenlong heard this, he immediately turned around and saw that Chen Lan actually came with Hong Ziyan. This was greatly unexpected by Mao Wenlong, and it was also the first time that Hong Ziyan stepped out of the cabin and came to the deck in the three days since she got on board.

When saving people that night, due to the blind fire of the black light, Mao Wenlong only had a rough look at Hong Ziyan. This will be closed in the sun, and you can see it clearly at a glance, and you can find that Hong Ziyan is still a big beauty, walking with Chen Lan, and there is no feeling of being compared.

Thin willow eyebrows, Danfeng eyes, lips like dots, eyes like morning stars, and delicate figure make people have an urge to care for her. Dressed in a white gauze dress, she is as pure and sacred as a fairy.

Hong Ziyan's beauty was far beyond Mao Wenlong's expectations, if he wanted to marry Hong Ziyan in the past, he was trying to win over her father.

So at this moment, Mao Wenlong obviously has developed feelings for Hong Ziyan, and it is not too much to say that it was love at first sight.

"Xianggong."

Suddenly, Chen Lan snorted in a rather dissatisfied tone. At this moment, she clearly saw in Mao Wenlong's eyes, the kind of eyes that only exist when she slept with herself.

This made Chen Lan very dissatisfied, women's nature is naturally better at jealousy than men. What's more, Hong Ziyan's beauty has surpassed Chen Lan's, which makes her even more uncertain, for fear that Mao Wenlong will not treat her well in the future.

At this moment, she will take Hong Ziyan to see Mao Wenlong, and she also mustered up great courage. It is a big bet, and it is also a time to test Mao Wenlong.

But Mao Wenlong's performance just now obviously made Chen Lan regret it, and he lost confidence in him.

A coquettish cry made Mao Wenlong suddenly come back to his senses, and he saw Chen Lan's disappointed face at a glance. Mao Wenlong secretly scolded himself as a 'bastard', and hurriedly comforted Chen Lan: "Xiaolan ......." ”

As soon as Mao Wenlong spoke, he suddenly didn't know how to comfort him, so he simply kept silent, took off his coat directly, and gently draped it on Chen Lan's thin and delicate body.

Obviously, at this moment, Mao Wenlong also realized that he was not good at coaxing girls, and he would lose if he said too much, so it was better to directly prove his heart to her with actions.

Facts have proved that Mao Wenlong's choice was right, and Chen Lan immediately showed a smile on her face when Mao Wenlong put on her coat.

The strange behavior of the two made Hong Ziyan, who was silent from beginning to end, very strange. But the simple Hong Ziyan didn't find anything wrong, and thought that this was a manifestation of the love between Mao Wenlong and Chen Lan.

In Hong Ziyan's cognition, a rough man like Mao Wenlong must not understand these things. didn't expect him to be such a person, no worse than those sweet-mouthed scholars.

"Xianggong, this is Sister Ziyan. Sister: This is my sister's father-in-law, Mao Wenlong. ”

After Chen Lan forgave Mao Wenlong, he introduced the two to each other.
