Chapter 588: Beauty in the Scheme (28)
When Lian Yan returned to Feng Chengli's army, her position became delicate, on the one hand, because she was caught by Zhou Xin, which caused their originally advantageous situation to almost fall short, and on the other hand, it was her disguise as a man that was exposed.
Feng Chengli's strategists and generals are not narrow-minded or discriminatory against women, but Lian Yan concealed her true identity, which is deception, so even if she has merit, her reputation and reputation have decreased a lot all of a sudden, and those colleagues who had a good relationship with her in the past have been a little alienated from her.
After Lian Yan came back, he was treated like this, and he was weak and unwilling for a while, as well as sad and guilty, and his heart was mixed.
Now that her identity has been exposed, Feng Chengli persuaded her that it would be better to marry directly, so that she could stand behind him justifiably and plan for him.
Facing the strange and distant eyes of her colleagues, Lian Yan was a little hesitant about the suggestion of marrying for the first time, she seemed to have thought that this was the only way to solve her current embarrassing situation, so she thought about it for a few days, and then really agreed to marry Feng Chengli.
It's just that even if they are willing to get married, it doesn't mean that they can get married, because Feng Chengli still has his parents' family behind him, and he is now not only the most promising descendant of the Feng family, but also very likely to win the powerful princes of the world, and his family affairs must be cautious, so when his parents and clan elders choose a wife for him, they are all selected from the virtuous, generous, intelligent and docile daughters of the family, not a woman like Lian Yan who has no background and comes from a poor family.
Therefore, it is unlikely that Lian Yan and Feng Chengli's family affairs will be affirmed by the Feng family, unless Feng Chengli would rather turn his face with his family and marry her.
But now Lian Yan's identity is not exposed, and her current merits have not reached the point where the Feng family can ignore her background, so their family affairs still have to be climbed, in short, they are not optimistic.
Since Feng Chengli was already planning to put her in the backyard, the strategists and generals under him were not so entangled in Lian Yan's identity, but after Lian Yan, she could no longer participate in the discussion and adjudication of the war with the strategists as before, and she could only stay alone in the rear, which made her involuntarily worried, panicked and uneasy.
……
However, these things have nothing to do with Wu Yue and An Nan, Wu Yue rescued Lian Yan who was coerced, so that Feng Chengli avoided a big loss and made a great contribution, but he was not lightly injured, so when others were shocked by Lian Yan's gender, he was recuperating from his injuries.
When he recovered from his injury, he heard that Lian Yan was going to marry Feng Chengli, he didn't like to think about it, so he only congratulated Feng Chengli and didn't say anything else, after all, in his opinion, men and women can get married if they look at each other, just like him and An Nan.
As for the marriage in order to strengthen his own forces, this kind of thing does not exist in his mind, but this is precisely the expectation of the Feng family master for Feng Chengli's family affairs.
So Feng Chengli had a headache for a while, on the one hand, he wanted to appease his lover who could no longer be a strategist when his identity was exposed, and on the other hand, he had to work hard to marry Lian Yan with his parents, instead of marrying, so he was visibly haggard with the naked eye.
Lian Yan was very unwilling to be trapped in Feng Chengli's backyard, she was obviously full of talent, smarter and more capable than ordinary men, but because of her identity as a woman, she couldn't display her talents, and even her previous achievements were almost erased, which made her angry and helpless
But in fact, if she had been open-minded and had run to those who had taken her gender to scold her and show enough courage, then she could have won the opportunity to still be a strategist, but she was too timid to have enough courage to resist, to rebel, to overthrow the injustice of this gender.
If it were An Nan, she would have scolded those who dared to despise and ridicule her, and they would be so angry that they would be helpless against her.
It's a pity that although Lian Yan dared to disguise herself as a man to make a career, she rebelled not completely and retreated at the critical moment, so she chose to become a woman with Feng Chengli in advance.
Let's not talk about the emotional entanglement between the two people, just say that Zhou Xin has no Lian Yan in his hand, the hole card that threatens Feng Chengli, and suddenly he is like a turtle without a shell, and he is allowed to be a mermaid.
He was already at the end of the crossbow, leaving only this small city as the last hiding place, and he was surrounded by Feng Chengli's men and horses on all sides, so it can be said that he was embattled and could not fly
And now that Lian Yan has been rescued, Feng Chengli has nothing to worry about, so he decisively sent troops to attack this last small city.
Zhou Xin had no hostages, and there were not many soldiers left, he was besieged by Feng Chengli's people at this time, and he had already lost in terms of momentum, so Feng Chengli's side was like a bamboo, and he quickly broke through his last line of defense, drove straight in, and smashed his base camp.
After all, he was once a prince, and Zhou Xin was unwilling to be captured by Feng Chengli, so he set himself on fire, scolded Feng Chengli before he died, and cursed him to end up with the same fate as himself in the future......
One of the princes perished, Feng Chengli successfully annexed all his territory, and now he is the largest prince in the north, and he occupies two-thirds of the original territory of the eastern country, which means that his hegemony is just around the corner.
Of course, this is not to say that his relationship with Lian Yan has changed, but that their relatives are not allowed by their parents, so they have not been able to get married.
Wu Yue had nothing to do to recuperate from his injuries, so he wrote these things about the lord as a pastime and showed them to An Nan in the letter, so An Nan knew all about the gossip of Feng Chengli and the two even in Lingyang County, thousands of miles away, and sympathized with it.
The domineering plot of the good male and female protagonists joining hands to fight the world has become a bitter drama with deep sadomasochistic love, can't you sympathize with it?
However, Annan believes that they will eventually succeed in working together for a lifetime, and that is enough.
Feng Chengli had just destroyed Zhou Xin, and now he was staring at the remaining princes, but that prince was not as easy to deal with as Zhou Xin, so Feng Chengli would not provoke such a strong opponent when he had just finished the war, and he had to be fully prepared to start.
So he began to give orders to recuperate, and the princes of both sides were dormant for the time being, but both sides knew that as long as they had gathered their strength, there would be a battle.
……
At the end of another year, Wu Yue was finally able to go back to Lingyang County for the New Year, originally he was going to be a guard stationed in a city, but he complained to Feng Chengli, saying that his family members were in Lingyang County, and they hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they were looking forward to getting together for the New Year.
Wu Yue was thick-skinned, so Feng Chengli had to let him come back with him and reunite with his family.
