Chapter 31: The Past Years

"When did you return to the capital?" Curtain Dust Road.

"Four days, one day before Brother Chen's arrival in the palace." Bian Juman hid the regret in his heart and said happily.

Muchen was taken aback: "Then why haven't I seen you in the mansion, and I haven't heard the prince talk about your return?" ”

"I asked the prince to help keep it secret, I want to surprise Brother Chen. Is Brother Chen happy to see Juman? Bian Juman glanced at him secretly, his face was shy, and he whispered.

"Happy, we haven't seen each other for nine years since we separated, how can we not be happy!" Mu Chen said, and then said: "How long do you plan to stay in the capital when you come back this time?" When he asked this, the thought that she might not stay here for long suddenly swelled up with reluctance and a trace of sadness in his heart.

"How long does Brother Dust want Juman to stay here?" Bian Juman smiled sweetly and asked rhetorically.

"This is your first home, and the longer the better, of course." Muchen looked at the flowers not far away, and his expression was unnatural.

Bian Juman was surprised to find that Mu Chen's handsome face was flushed, it turned out that Brother Chen was shy, she said happily: "Then Juman will listen to Brother Chen, and he will stay in the capital in the future, stay with Brother Chen, and not go anywhere, do you think it?" ”

At the end, Bian Juman muttered in a low voice: "The place where Brother Chen's brother is Juman's hometown." ”

Bian Juman is the only daughter of Bian Mu, the general of Daqing Guoda, and her mother died of illness shortly after giving birth to her.

and vowed not to marry again in this life, as a way to express his loyal love for his wife.

At that time, the border pastor had not yet achieved the position of the general of the Zhenguo, but was only a second-class guard, specifically responsible for protecting the emperor's safety, but this official rank was not low, and it belonged to the fourth rank. More importantly, he can stay by the emperor's side all the time, and he is deeply used by the emperor, and the emperor's attention to the border pastor also gives him an important position among the ministers.

All kinds of flattery and flattery appeared.

Everyone in the court wanted to win over General Bian so that he could say a few good words for himself in front of the emperor.

When Bian Juman was nine years old, Daqing was invaded by foreign enemies, and the people lived in fire and water.

General Bian's patriotism deeply moved the emperor, so the emperor promoted him to the general of Zhengerpin Zhenguo in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and the official rank of Bian Mu was also raised by six ranks at once.

This is an unprecedented and pioneering move in Daqing.

For a time, everyone in the court was envious of the border pastor.

Bian Mushi, who loved his daughter, was not worried about leaving the nine-year-old Bian Juman alone in the capital, so before he left, he entrusted Bian Juman to his aunt's family in Hangzhou, who had always loved her, for foster care.

As a result, the childhood sweethearts Bian Juman and Muchen have been separated from each other since then, and this separation is nine years.

On the eve of leaving, the three-year-old curtain of the elder Bian Juman knew that he might not be able to see her again in this life, and after several hesitations and entanglements, he mustered up the courage to confess his affection to her on a moonlit starry night.

Since then, Bian Juman has never returned to the capital.

Nine years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the little boy has now grown up, and the little girl is now slim.

Every night when Bian Juman was away, Muchen was secretly hoping that one day she could return to the homeland where she was born and raised, and when he grew up, he slowly became more sensible, and his father began to slowly transfer the business in his hands to him, so he used this convenience to inquire about her whereabouts everywhere.

In the fourth year of separation, sixteen-year-old Mu Chen inquired about her address for the first time, and he couldn't hold back the joy in his heart, and went to Hangzhou many times to secretly see her.

As Bian Juman grew older, he became more and more slim, lovable, and more and more men who admired and pursued her, and the anxiety in Mu Chen's heart became more and more day by day, however, he did not have the courage to appear in front of Bian Juman, not once.

When Bian Juman was fifteen years old, that is, when she had just reached the marriageable age, Mu Chen took the initiative to tell his father about this matter, and hoped that his father would agree to his request and allow him to ask Bian Juman for marriage, however, his father refused this family affair on the grounds that he was unwilling to marry someone from the court.

After that, many times, Mu Chen talked about this marriage, but Mu Xiangqian did not agree.

And because Mu Chen was afraid to hear the news that his beloved had married a wife, he never inquired about her again, as long as he knew that she was okay elsewhere, it was more important than anything else.

"Does Brother Dust have a family now?"

Mu Chen was stunned, he didn't expect that Bian Juman, who he hadn't seen for nine years, was still as naughty as before, talking loudly, and the familiar feeling of childhood came to his heart again, Mu Chen felt very nostalgic and warm, and he couldn't help but say gently: "I haven't met a woman who makes my heart move for the time being." ”

Bian Juman looked at the burning light in Mu Chen's eyes and said with a smile: "What type of girl does Brother Chen like?" ”

Mu Chen looked at Bian Juman and said with a smile: "Knowledgeable and courteous, dignified and generous, gentle and virtuous, and at the same time without losing the innocence of a child." ”

"Brother Chen's election has already been chosen, right?"

Mu Chen smiled, helpless but happy: "You are still the same as before, you have to ask everything to the end before you want to stop." ”

Bian Juman said arrogantly: "Then it has to be who it is!" ”

Pond round pavilion.

Su Jiuling and the prince sat on the beauty.

"The prince is planning to get old this time, so when will I be able to eat the wedding wine of the two of them?" Su Jiuling smiled lightly.

"Hahaha, then I've picked up a big bargain this month, and I can promote a marriage without pulling strings, isn't it the easiest. This king guessed that their marriage should not take a long time, Juman is nineteen years old in order to wait for Ah Chen, and he has not married yet, Ah Chen has not married at the age of twenty-two in order to wait for Juman, these two are waiting for each other, it is estimated that after expressing their hearts to each other this time, they can't wait. As soon as Duan Wangye's words fell, he burst into laughter.

"Does the prince plan to go to the front line after Ah Chen and Miss Bian get married this time?" Su Jiuling asked.

"Well, the current situation on the frontier is not optimistic, not only is the food and grass tight, but also a lot of soldiers have been killed and wounded, this king plans to bring a group of men and horses over to help General Bian this time."

Su Jiuling pondered for a moment and said: "When the country is in danger, although General Bian loves his daughter with all his heart, he finally chooses righteousness and fights with the soldiers to the end. ”

"If there is no social health, where can the children be long!" Duan Wang Ye said earnestly.

The Gardens of the Palace.

Bian Juman sat on a stone bench, looked not far away and said, "I don't know how my father is now." ”

After Muchen came to the palace, he had already learned from the prince that Daqing Kingdom had been invaded by foreign enemies, and General Bian led his soldiers to fight to kill the enemy, he comforted: "General Bian is good at leading troops to fight, and he will definitely expel foreign enemies and return triumphantly." ”

"Daddy since the invasion of foreign enemies, disturbing the Daqing country after the country, he has been stationed in the frontier for many years, just to protect the Jiangshan community and the people of Limin, this is nine years, nine years, I have met with my father only a handful of times, whenever in the dead of night, I will always think of the time I spent with my father as a child, and I am worried every day about whether my father can return safely."

Mu Chen said gently: "General Bian is good at leading troops to fight, and he is proficient in strategy, he will definitely return safely." Since you were a child, General Bian has regarded you as a treasure in his heart, and you are the most reassuring thing in his heart, so you have to take care of yourself and don't let General Bian worry. I think this is the biggest reward for General Bian. ”

Bian Juman nodded slightly.

"I will stay in the palace during this time, if, if Brother Chen misses me, he can come to me at any time." Bian Juman said softly.

Stable.

An eight-meter-long stable, in which eight or nine horses are raised, each of which is a different color.

Red Medicine stood by the manger and looked at a horse with a perfect body curve, eating hay with his head down; I saw that the horse was chestnut all over, full and graceful, with a thin head and a high neck, slender limbs, thin skin and fine hair, and shiny fur; Even Hongyao, a person who doesn't understand horses, has to be impressed by its handsomeness.

The horse kept his head down and graze, and did not look up at the incoming.

There are several other horses in the stable, some of them are standing in the stable, leisurely flicking their beautiful tails, some of them lie directly on the ground, flicking their tails to drive away mosquito bites, and some of them lie directly on the ground with their feet facing the sky, looking so funny.

Red Medicine made its way through every notch, her eyes making no secret of their interest in them, however, none of the horses showed the slightest interest in Red Medicine.

She finally couldn't resist the urge to touch it, and Hongyao carefully observed the demeanor of each horse, intending to pick out the most docile one from among them, and look at it, look at it.

She found that every horse was not easy to mess with, and after much consideration and consideration, Red Medicine finally dispelled this idea.

At this time, the chestnut steed, which was focused on grazing with its head down, suddenly raised its graceful neck, made a popping sound in its nose, and looked straight at the red medicine with a pair of big eyes, and the red medicine was startled at first glance, thinking that it had offended it by its unintentional behavior, so it would arouse its hostility.

She smiled at the steed, and immediately took a few steps back with her feet, and only stopped when she had figured that there was a safe distance between her and the horse.

Who knows, the horse is even more restless than just now, its four hooves are constantly rubbing on the ground, its body is falling back, its neck is constantly twisting, Hongyao sees that it is in high spirits, trying to break free from the reins, and is terrified.

Immediately she ran away, lest the tall steed break free from the reins and trample her under her feet.

Soon after Red Medicine left, the groom hurried to the stable, and while he said words to soothe the horse, he approached it cautiously, and only when it had calmed down a little, did he gently stroke the horse's mane, and muttered something in his mouth.
