On the ninth day of the new year, Guan Jiyu packed up early and prepared to go out.

After changing his clothes and going out, he found Jiang Yingnian standing outside the door of the room. Seeing that her body was tightly wrapped, Jiang Yingnian couldn't help but be amused, and said, "In the past, you weren't afraid of the cold, why are you now three layers inside and three layers outside? Although the north is the coldest, there has been sunshine these days, and I don't feel how cold it is."

Guan Jiyu smiled and said, "Maybe it's old, and it's not as good as a few years ago."

"You've always been a little girl, why are you getting old?" Jiang Yingnian yawned and said lazily: "We waited outside all night that day, the wine was drunk, and we didn't see the snow falling, and my heart was still empty, and I always wanted to wait with you."

"What's so hard about that?" Guan Jiyu said: "You pay more attention to the sky, it is not difficult to see the snow in this northern place, let's keep it again."

Jiang Yingnian nodded, patted Guan Jiyu's shoulder lightly with his hand, the tenderness in his eyes was infinite, and he said softly, "Yes, the days ahead are still long." Ah Yu, you come back early,"

Beixin Xiangfu is not far from the Yanjiang Corridor, but Jiang Yingnian's tone is like a hundred and eight thousand miles apart, Guan Jiyu said helplessly: "It's not that you haven't been to the camp of Beixin General's Mansion, Xiangfu is there, and it won't take long to come and go." It's just that I'm going to see the general and let him know that I'm back, and I'll go and go back."

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Jiang Yingnian took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and was about to stuff them to Guan Jiyu, and said, "There is nothing unusual to eat in the Yanjiang promenade, since you have gone to Beixin, there must be all kinds of shops there, you should also go shopping and buy some things for yourself."

"What are you doing with this money for me, it's not like I don't have any money...... Guan Jiyu was surprised at first, and then teased, "Didn't you just say that I should come back early? Why are you telling me to go out for a walk? Do you want me to come back early or late?"

Jiang Yingnian took Guan Jiyu's hand, put the silver ticket in her hand, and gently tugged her ear, and said, "The flowers on Mo are blooming, but they can return slowly." Well? That's what it says, right? That's pretty much what it means anyway, I know you'll always come back. I don't care, since we came out of the door, you have to be by my side all the time!"

Guan Jiyu was not polite, took the silver ticket given by Jiang Yingnian, and said, "Since the third prince is so generous, then I might as well be respectful. If you have anything you want to eat, just tell me and I'll bring it to you when I come back."

Jiang Yingnian thought for a while and said, "If you see a candy cake seller on the street, bring some back."

Guan Jiyu counted the wad of silver tickets in his hand and said, "Sugar cakes...... Beixin's sugar cakes are very famous, and I would like to try them." After counting, she put away the silver ticket and said, "I'm sure I'll bring it back for you, I'll see if there's anything else delicious by the way, call Hanxu at night, let's eat it together!"

Jiang Yingnian sent Guan Jiyu outside the main city, watched her carriage go away, and then returned to the main city until it was out of sight.

The road was dry, the carriage was easy to walk, and it didn't take long to drive into the north heart.

There is still a distance away from the General's Mansion, and you can hear people in the Beixin area discussing the Xiang family's family affairs. Guan Jiyu sat in the carriage and could hear the sound of people talking outside.

"Won't you go? This is a big scene that we haven't seen in the north for a long time! The great joy of the General's Mansion, who should not go to touch the joy of the Xiang family?"

"The brothers of this family, but the glory of our northern heart! I'm just in Nanqin, even if it's in the southernmost part of the border, I have to rush back to Beixin to take a look, and the wedding scene is secondary, mainly to see our General Xiang! Hey, hey, hey."

"The Xiang family has been a general for generations, but I heard that the person married by this second son is not a famous lady, although the girl lives in the capital, it seems that she is also a medicine seller."

All kinds of chaotic discussions clearly poured into Guan Jiyu's ears, and she sat peacefully in the carriage, as if listening to some ordinary chatter, just thinking that when the marriage was over, she hurried to find Jin Cicada to get something.

The people outside seemed to be talking energetically, and the voices were louder, there were many people on the street, and the carriage was moving slowly, and Guan Jiyu could only do

Continue to be forced to listen to these idle chatters.

"It doesn't matter if she's selling medicine or something, that's not the main thing." The person who spoke suddenly lowered his voice and said, "I have a distant relative who lives in the capital, and I heard that the second son of Xiang is looking for this one, who was originally a one-time parent, as if he had a child, he threw it to his in-law's family and ignored it, just thinking about climbing the high branches and climbing our family's son-in-law."

"Huh? And such things? You can eat food indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense!"

"It's true, I just don't know if General Xiang knows about this? He has a big temper, and if he knows it, he can't be angry?"

"Forget it, what's the matter, we can't talk about other people's family affairs. Let's hurry up and go to Xiangfu, and when we go late, the candy won't be there."

The crowd outside dispersed slightly, and Guan Jiyu felt that the carriage was going smoothly.

Outside the door of Xiang's mansion, there is a joyful atmosphere, the Xiang family has always been simple, but the arrangement of this marriage is okay, whether it is the local elite or ordinary people, they have come to congratulate him, Guan Jiyu got off the station outside the gate, and was submerged in the sea of people.

She didn't come early, and soon the sedan chair had stopped outside the gate of Xiangfu, and the crowd poured over like a torrent, surrounding the sedan chair.

The sound of firecrackers continued, and Xiang Lincheng was dressed in a bright red groom's official clothes, and the red ribbon in his hair was very eye-catching. His expression seemed to be very normal, and it was not obvious that he was happy or unhappy.

Guan Jiyu watched not far away, Xiang Lincheng stood in front of the sedan chair, didn't know what to whisper, and opened the happy curtain on the sedan chair with one hand. The bride slowly walked out of it with a red hijab, and the two of them stood side by side and walked towards the house.

The crowd soon followed them into Xiang's mansion together, Guan Jiyu was squeezed by the crowd and walked inside, and walked to the innermost lobby, only then did he see Xiang Ju'an.

This is the second time Guan Jiyu has seen Xiang Ju'an break away from the border pass, except for the time in the capital, this time it may be a major event in the family, Xiang Ju'an is an important role, he also wears a different way, the clothes are obviously new, and the corners are also delicate red pendants.

Facing the tea ceremony of his younger brother Xiang Lincheng and his brother-in-law Jin Chan, Xiang Ju'an smiled slightly, took the teacup calmly and took a sip, Guan Jiyu suddenly thought of the scene when he first saw him.

Xiang Ju'an's domineering and wildness, his bloody and uninhibited nature on the battlefield, all have been restrained, at this moment he shows the kindness of a father and brother, and his gestures are the stability and peace that a big family should have.

He doesn't seem to be young anymore.

Worship heaven and earth.

Two worship high halls.

Guan Jiyu also silently followed these words in his heart, almost all marriages since ancient times have been such steps, and no one does not know these steps.

It's just that when the words "husband and wife worship" sounded, Xiang Lincheng's expression suddenly became a little strange, he seemed to be suddenly very entangled, and hesitated to turn around and face the golden cicada, the golden cicada had already bent down, but Xiang Lincheng did not move a little.

The hall was full of people looking at Xiang Lincheng strangely, because Xiang Ju'an was sitting on the main seat, although everyone was suspicious, they didn't dare to talk about it.

"Husband and wife worship each other!"

This sentence was shouted again, as if to remind the stunned Xiang Lincheng.

Xiang Lincheng was still staring at the golden cicada with a red hijab, motionless.

"Lincheng?" Xiang Ju'an reminded in a whisper.

Xiang Lincheng turned his head to look at his brother, and then at Jin Cicada, he suddenly lifted the Xipa covering Jin Cicada's head with one hand, and said, "I'm sorry, Cicada, after thinking about it, I still don't think I can marry you."

The delicate makeup on Jin Cicada's face shows her beauty, her eyes are flowing, her red lips are bright, and even the hairpins in her hair are very valuable. She didn't seem to expect Xiang Lincheng to give her such a play at this critical moment, so she had to force a smile and whispered, "Lincheng, it's all come to this point, what are you talking nonsense?"

"I'm not talking nonsense!" Xiang Lincheng's voice was raised, he had always been calm, but at this time he couldn't hide his excitement and said, "I can't go against my own heart."

I've just worked hard

The restrained people could no longer bear the discussion at the moment, and the scene was extremely embarrassing for a while.

However, Xiang Ju'an had seen the world in the end, and in the face of this kind of scene, he asked his younger brother without hurrying: "Lincheng, today is your big day, do you know what the consequences of your actions are?"

Xiang Ju'an's voice has weight.

"Big brother, I know." Xiang Lincheng's eyes suddenly became a little sad, he looked at Xiang Ju'an, and said, "There are many things you don't know, but my mind ...... You are clear. I know that this move has not only brought shame on me, but also on the Xiang family, but I can't care about it."

Xiang Ju'an's lips moved, and before he could think of what to say, there was a loud voice outside: "Report-"

A soldier ran to the lobby, knelt behind Xiang Lincheng and Jin Cicada, and reported: "General, there is a change in the north, go back quickly!"

Xiang Ju'an's expression stiffened almost instantly, he was just stunned for a moment, then immediately stood up and walked out, Xiang Lincheng reacted and followed to walk out, Jin Cicada saw that he was leaving, grabbed Xiang Lincheng's sleeve, and choked up: "No, you can't go!"

"Let go." Xiang Lincheng's eyes were empty, he looked at Jin Cicada, and his tone did not have a trace of warmth, as if this person was not his bride at all, but an irrelevant stranger.

The golden cicada cried out and collapsed at his feet, but his hand still held on to him: "But today is my big day, why are you leaving? Why is it today, why is it ......?"

Xiang Lincheng said, "Didn't you hear? There's going to be war in the north."
