Ling Yun walked slowly to the wooden house, knowing that this might be the last time he walked into the house, but he tried his best to put these thoughts aside. The gray wind followed silently, and in late spring and early summer, it was drizzling outside, and the rain was falling. Gaojiazhuang is noisy and bustling, but the lotus pond in a corner of this village is still warm and quiet, quiet as if he first arrived, as if the noise outside is just a dream.

Standing outside the door, he stood alone for a long time, his heart pounding and beating faster, and he didn't know if it was the excitement of anticipation or nervousness. Grey Wind rubbed the back of his hand with himself, and gently bit his fingers with its white wolf fangs from time to time, and his mood suddenly calmed down, so he mustered up his courage, puffed up his chest, pushed open the door of the wooden house, and walked inside.

Murong Rose sat on the edge of the bed.

She's a **, and this is her second marriage. But in reality, her first marriage ended before it began. When her father married her to him when she was eighteen years old, she couldn't say that she was happy or disappointed, but she felt that life was like this, getting married and having children, husband and children, and a lifetime passed like this, everyone is like this. It's just that when her wedding dress was ready and she was looking forward to her life after marriage, this fiancé she once thought would be with her for the rest of her life died. The unmarried husband died, and he was widowed. Originally, in such a situation, she could remarry. It's just that for some reason, it's been delayed for so many years. She once thought that maybe she would never marry again. In a flash, it is now nearly thirty, and this heart is more and more hidden. After her father's death, her younger brother Yi Feng, who was originally just taken care of by her, helped her a lot. After a few years, she couldn't help but have feelings in her heart, but she never mustered up the courage to say it. It wasn't until later that Yi Feng's good brother Ji Hu died blocking arrows for him, dragging him to take care of his sister Ji Yao when he was dying, and Ling Yun not only agreed, but also proposed to marry Ji Yao as his wife in the future and take care of her for the rest of his life. Ji Yao is a good girl, and she also loves Yi Feng, in fact, there are few young girls in the village who don't love Yi Feng. He is a young hero, tall and handsome, brave and extraordinary, the dream of young girls. Murong Rose buried the affection in her heart deep in her heart and never mentioned it again.

However, although this relationship is buried deep in my heart, it has not withered and died, but has sprouted and grown, and it is becoming more and more difficult to control. After hearing that Yi Feng was going south alone, she left a qiē and rushed to him desperately, looking for him in Jiangnan like crazy, and even fought several times. Knowing that Lingyun was in Gaojiazhuang, and Yang Guang was going to lead a large army to attack, he rushed here again.

When Gaojiazhuang was surrounded by Yang Guang's soldiers and horses, Rose even felt a sense of relief in her heart.

You can't live together, but you can die together.

At that time, she never thought that things would have a good twist and turn. They don't have to die here, and she can marry him.

Although, just as a concubine, there is no extravagant wedding, and even because of the rush of time, even the etiquette of three books and six ceremonies is simple. There was no worship ceremony, and she didn't care.

The east courtyard is the courtyard of Lingyun and Qianxue, Murong Rose chose the small wooden house on the lotus pond where Yi Feng lived when he first entered Gaojiazhuang, and the simple arrangement did not make too much publicity, and even the hairpin dress for the big wedding was not ready, just some simple things bought from the shops in Yangzhou. But sitting on the edge of the bed, her heart was the most relaxed, happiest, and happiest time in the five years since her father's death, and even in the ten years since her fiancé's death.

She heard Ling Yun's footsteps outside, she didn't urge, just sat quietly on the edge of the bed and waited for him to come in.

Ling Yun stood for a long time, and finally stopped waiting, he gently stretched out his hand to push the door, and the door opened.

Rose turned her head with a happy smile on her face, her eyes blinked, full of affection: "Are all the guests outside entertained?" ”

"Well, I found a chance to escape." Ling Yun smiled a little embarrassedly, I don't know what to say, Murong Rose is very beautiful, very understanding, full of royal sister style, such a sister wife knows cold and hot, it is very good. However, after all, he is a time-traveler, and he has not really experienced the life and death of Yi Feng and Rose for six years, so he does not have those feelings. Suddenly, he got married, which was really embarrassing, especially since he and Gao Qianxue were officially married last night, but he entered the cave room with another woman tonight, and the feeling of being a groom this night was not so good.

Her face was full of peach blossoms, her cheeks were fluttering, her long hair that had been soft and black had been untied and scattered, and after taking off the mask, she looked as if she had suddenly become a teenager, just like a young girl. "Have you set a date for your departure?"

"Hmm," Ling Yun nodded, Yang Guang hoped that he would go north as much as possible and take control of the two forces of the Gao family and the Tiger Alliance as soon as possible to help him. Yang Guang didn't just let them stick a nail in Yang Liang's back, he also needed money. The battle for the seizure of the crown requires a lot of capital, recruiting private soldiers, secretly building armor and armor, hoarding grain and grass, and even bribing and winning over the noble officials of the court, this qiē requires money, and it is a lot of money. Nowadays, almost all of Yang Guang's financial resources are provided by the Yuwen family, but although the Yuwen family is a big valve in Guanzhong, it is difficult to support it. Yang Guang needs more money to win over more allies and add some chips to the reserve. The Gao family's smuggling network and the Tiger Alliance, the Green Forest Alliance, naturally couldn't escape Yang Guang's calculations. Now that they have been accepted, the money of the Gao family and the Tiger Alliance is naturally Yang Guang's money. "Seven days, he only gave me seven days. Seven days later, we had to officially set off for the north. "

The smile on Murong Qiang's face froze, seven days, time is too short. After years of emotional backlog, I finally waited for this day. But Yang Guang only gave them seven days, and these seven days did not completely belong to him. If it had been in the past, with her nature, she would have been angry. But now, thinking that tonight is the night of candles in their cave room, she smiled, "This is only temporary, after all, you are father and son, after a while, you can gain his trust, and at that time, I don't have to stay in Jiangnan all the time." ”

"Or, when his people really take over the affairs of the north, I can go back to Jiangnan." Even if he is Yang Guang's illegitimate son, when it comes to handling official affairs, Yang Guang is still very businesslike. This time he went to the north, and both Gao Qianxue and Murong Rose were asked to stay in Jiangnan as hostages. But that's not all, when Ling Yun went to the north, in addition to bringing a group of people from the Gao family and the Tiger Alliance to the south, Yang Guang also arranged a group of companions for his team.

A group of Jin king's people, guards and staff, and will give him 200 elite Jin king's private army, called guards, in fact, these civil and military officials are clearly in order to really control the forces in the north. Moreover, Yang Guang said bluntly that this group of people is only the first batch, and in the future, he will arrange more people to go north to assist Ling Yun to fully control the forces of the Gao family and the Tiger Alliance, of course, in fact, it is also for Yang Guang to really control these two forces. Ling Yun knew this in his heart, Yang Guang couldn't really believe him completely. For the time being, having these people follow him to the north is still good for him for now.

The power of the Gao family is easier to say, after all, they are the remnants of the Northern Qi Dynasty who have always been loyal to the Gao family, he is Gao Qianxue's husband, and it is not difficult to preside over the affairs of the Gao family. But the Tiger Alliance is a Green Forest Alliance, and there are more than a hundred large and small green forest forces below, Ling Yun used to be just the nine masters of an alliance, and the only one who really controlled it was the White Horse Hall, and Murong Qiangrose, the big leader, was not single-handed. Even if he marries Murong Qiang, it will be difficult to command the heroes at once, otherwise, as soon as Murong Ke dies back then, after Murong Qiang Rose comes forward, it will be impossible to go from hundreds of forces in the alliance at the peak of the year to more than 100 today.

Ling Yun didn't have much interest in doing something like being the leader of the northern green forest, if he could choose, he hoped that Yang Guang would let him stay in Jiangnan with peace of mind and be a rich man. But he also knew that his own storage was actually a time bomb for Yang Guang, and if he couldn't show enough value, why would Yang Guang keep such a dangerous item by his side. And now, the only value he can make Yang Guang's heart move is estimated to be these two forces in the north.

She got up and took out a box from the side of the bed.

"Bring this with you then, you can help." Lingyun opened it, and there were three things inside, the first was a flag, a flag with a tiger's head as a symbol.

"This is the White Tiger, this flag is still made of the white tiger you killed back then, this is the banner of our Tiger Alliance, you go back this time and take it."

A flag made of white tiger skin is embroidered with a white tiger, and around the tiger's periphery is a burning rose. This is the banner of the Tiger League, and it is also the identity symbol of the leader of the alliance, the White Tiger Daxu, also known as the Tiger Rose Banner.

In addition to this flag, there were two other things in the box, one was several thick books, and the other was a token.

Murong Qiang Rose explained that these two things, like the White Tiger Banner, were symbols of the power of the alliance leader. The book is the roster of each faction under the alliance, which records in detail the names of the forces belonging to each alliance, their addresses, as well as the names of the leaders and gang members of the alliance, and even the money and food. This list is only in the hands of the alliance leader, and all the content on it is recorded by code words, and only the alliance understands what it means. Such a booklet is very important, and if you control these lists, you will also control the various forces, and if they fall into the hands of the imperial court, the consequences can be imagined. Murong Rose had always carried it with her, and now, handed it over to Ling Yun. The remaining tokens are naturally the alliance leader tokens, also known as the White Tiger Order, which is a gold medal and a seal letter, and the letter sent by the alliance leader to the leaders of the subordinate forces will inevitably be supported by the White Tiger Order.

These three things were all the credentials of the alliance leader, and now, Murong Rose handed them all over to Ling Yun, so naturally he fully supported him.

Ling Yun solemnly accepted this precious gift, was silent for a while, and finally Murong Rose took the initiative to close the curtain and untie his clothes, leading him to conquer and possess her.

After dawn, Ling Yun looked at the dots of red on the sheets, and was slightly surprised. What's more, I feel like I have another responsibility.

"I wish you could stay with me." Murong Rose was as tender as water after the first night of the wedding, and said softly.

Ling Yun looked at her with pity, but knew that he couldn't meet her request at all.

He didn't know what to say, and after a night of tender whispering, he was about to face separation, which was very uncomfortable. "I'll be back soon." After a moment of awkward silence, he reluctantly spoke.

"San Lang." When he got up and walked to the door, she called him.

"What?" He asked, looking back.

"I'll always be here for you." After saying this, she turned around and knelt on the pillow embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water, sobbing softly, and a pair of round jade shoulders exposed in the air kept shrugging. Ling Yun never thought that a legendary woman like Murong Rose would actually have such a childlike side, and he felt in his heart, and his legs suddenly felt that they weighed more than a thousand catties.
