Seeing that there was no objection from the people, the marshal continued: "It is one thing to send someone to look for Caesar, and as for my own situation, it will not be clear for a while, but I will find time as soon as possible to explain to you, so as to clear up the doubts in your hearts." Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info In the following period, the female general was mainly responsible for the post-war reconstruction work in the country, as well as the compensation work for the casualties. The Forest Clan and Earth Street have contributed a lot in the war, and where they can, try to help. The South is united, and this is the basis for the fight against the North. ”

The female general bowed and said, "Yes." ”

The marshal looked at General Lan again and said, "Don't relax your vigilance against the north, General Lan, you are mainly responsible for repairing the outer walls and fortifications of the imperial capital, as well as reorganizing the army, and recapturing the important strategic areas of the Hengduan Mountains again." In addition, the movements of the north must be grasped as much as possible, I heard the female general say that Mr. Xu Ziling has been lurking in the north for many years, establishing the Moon Chamber of Commerce, and spying on the intelligence of the north. You assist Mrs. Elaine on Earth Street as soon as possible and find a way to get in touch with Mr. Xu Ziling. ”

General Lan bowed down and said, "Yes." I found time to go to the north in person, and find a way to find Mr. Xu Ziling and talk to him face to face. ”

The marshal shook his head with a smile: "You are an imperial general, and you have the responsibility of guarding the country, how can you easily leave the south? Besides, I still have arrangements for you, you will definitely stay in the imperial capital." ”

General Lan was stunned for a moment and asked, "What else does Lord Marshal command?"

The marshal stood up, his figure was extremely tall, and at this moment he was no longer wearing the old military wheel full of years of years that he had been wearing, but a newly made military uniform, except for his face was too pale, all other appearances and temperaments could be called a majestic and calm commander of the country.

He himself has repeatedly said that he will find time to explain to everyone and explain his identity clearly. But just now he made a generous and principled arrangement for Caesar, and the series of affairs assigned to General Lan and the female general seemed to be orderly and confident. In fact, he didn't need to say much, everyone present had already decided that he was the marshal who pacified the troubled times and established the empire a hundred years ago!

At this time, hearing him say that he had other arrangements for General Lan, he got up and left his seat, and everyone present was a little curious, not knowing what else the marshal had that everyone did not expect.

I saw him slowly walk up to the phoenix, and stretched out his broad palm to the phoenix with a smile.

The phoenix was stunned, the marshal spoke to help Caesar speak, and a big stone in her heart was finally put down, but she didn't expect the marshal to suddenly come to her. Although he didn't understand what to do, Phoenix quickly got up and stretched out his hand.

The marshal held the hand of the phoenix, like a benevolent elder holding his little granddaughter.

Phoenix was led out of her seat, so she didn't notice Jasmine behind her, and when the marshal approached, her whole body trembled and shrunk into a ball, as if she had encountered something terrifying.

The marshal led the phoenix to General Lan's side, pulled the phoenix with one hand, and pulled General Lan with the other, and sighed: "I was in retreat back then, in order to find a way to defeat the great commander of the northern country, if I can't defeat that person, even if the south can support it for hundreds of years, it will still be defeated in the end." I didn't know back then that General Lan could cultivate such a great student......"

As he spoke, he looked at the phoenix, his eyes were gentle and meaningful, "If I had known about you, I wouldn't have had to close anything." With your natural potential, you should be able to surpass me in less than ten years, and then the Great Commander of the Northern Kingdom will naturally be no problem. ”

Phoenix is calm and calm on weekdays, rarely happy and angry, but at this moment she can't help but blush, she didn't expect the marshal to speak so highly of herself, and actually said that she could surpass the battle commander in ten years!

And listening to the meaning of his words, he himself seems to be confident that his strength is already above the Great Commander, so he is out of the customs.

Everyone in the hall didn't know what the marshal meant by suddenly saying this, until the marshal smiled and pulled Phoenix and General Lan closer and said: "I heard that the two of you have a marriage contract, and now that Pepsi is in a depression after the war, it is naturally not appropriate to hold a big wedding, but a simple and solemn wedding for the entire empire can also make the people with a heavy heart more uplifted." ”

General Lan bowed his head and said, "Internal worries are still there, and external enemies have not been eliminated, how can subordinates consider their own personal affairs at such a time?"

The marshal shook his head and smiled: "I said, I don't plan to be extravagant. It's just that just after the war, everyone was sad in their hearts, and Caesar, a heroic model who was praised by you, made another disturbance in the Holy Miracle Square, and now the morale of the people is extremely low, can you just let it go? Whether it is the reconstruction after the war or the reconstruction of the fortifications in the north, these are all hardware, but what about the software? The reconstruction of the national morale is actually a hundred times more important than the work on hardware!"

Only then did everyone understand that the marshal suddenly proposed the wedding of General Lan and Phoenix, not on a whim, but with deeper considerations.

Except for Cassadine's disillusioned face, everyone else present smiled and agreed: "Yes, yes, the wedding date agreed between General Lan and the Phoenix Colonel when they got engaged was about to arrive." "Many people are still immersed in the pain caused by the war, and the marriage of two heroes who did their best in the war is also an encouragement to the people!" "I am in favor!" "We are also in favor!"

General Lan thought for a while, nodded and said, "Since there is no harm in public or private, only benefits, then I will not be hypocritical." ”

He stepped forward, smiled gently, and took the phoenix's hand.

The phoenix didn't know what to think, and in the confusion, he subconsciously withdrew his hand and dodged.

The marshal laughed and said: "You were originally a teacher-student relationship, and it was common to teach all kinds of wind and thunder martial arts and dragon vein spells by hand, why are you still shy now?"

As he spoke, he took the phoenix's hand and put it in General Lan's hand, and said earnestly: "After the two of you get married, husband and wife will work together and serve the empire." Hmph, the battle mage clan has been pressing us south and bullying us for so long, and it's time to pay it back. Let's all hurry up and do a good job of rebuilding and preparing for war, within a year at most, our Wind Thunder Empire will have to make the Battle Dynasty pay the price!"

What else was discussed in the meeting that followed, and Phoenix didn't hear anything.

At the beginning of her coming to the meeting, she was thinking about how to resolve the hatred between the military department and Caesar, and after the meeting, Jasmine was safely delivered to General Lan, but now these two things don't seem to be a problem, but Phoenix herself is a mess, and she doesn't know where she is and where her heart is.

By the end of the meeting, it was late afternoon. Phoenix thought that Jasmine could just go to General Lan on her own, and she didn't need to do anything more, so she silently got up and walked out of the conference hall and returned to her residence in the imperial capital.

She threw herself on the bed, and for a while she was so tired that she didn't want to move half a finger, desperately trying to press some people and certain things in her mind, but found that the more she pressed, the more she pressed. Among them is the appearance of gray armor, and there is also Caesar.

Phoenix suddenly recalled that half a year ago, General Lan dismantled the Twelve Round Table families, and was complacent, and then took the opportunity of a dinner party to announce the news of their engagement in public, and Caesar came to him that night.

At that time, Phoenix only thought that Caesar's expression and behavior were a little strange, but his own student had never played cards according to common sense, so he didn't care much at that time.

That night, Caesar took Phoenix to a blacksmith shop, and then in front of her, he created a pair of earrings for her, and confided that he was the new master craftsman on Earth Street.

Now that I think about it, it was more like a ...... A wordless confession?

After the phoenix woke up this morning, all she thought about was what she felt about the gray armor and Caesar, and now she suddenly switched to Caesar's point of view, and then recalled the past experiences of the two people......

Thinking like this, Phoenix couldn't help but be crazy for a while.

Phoenix stayed alone in the room and didn't go to dinner. In the evening, there was a knock at the door, and Cassadine's voice came from the door: "Are you there?

When he opened the door, he saw Cassadine standing in the doorway with a disgraced face, his eyes red and swollen. Phoenix has known Cassadine since he was a child, and he has the impression that this demon king of the mixed world has never been so embarrassed.

Phoenix had always known Cassadine's intentions and didn't know what to say, so she turned around and poured him a glass of water.

Cassadine waved his hand, signaling no, he seemed to have something to say, and he didn't enter the house, just stood at the door, took a deep breath and said: "It looks like you're really going to get married, congratulations and something like that, I won't say it." I'm here to tell you...... You have always understood this, and I have never hidden it, but I still have to say the phrase 'I like you' to you personally. ”

Phoenix was silent for a long time and said, "Thank you, Cassadine. ”

The corners of Cassadine's mouth twitched, and he smiled extremely bitterly, and said in a low voice: "You are familiar with my personality, in fact, according to my character, if you like it, you will never just say such a simple sentence, no matter if he is General Lan or who, I always have to fight to the end." But I thought about it all afternoon today, and the green eyes also thought about it all afternoon, and now, I finally have a conclusion in my heart. ”

He paused, looked deeply into Phoenix's eyes, and said, "I'll let go, but it's not because I don't like you enough." I chose to give up, not because I didn't love you, but because I was sure: you don't love me, and you won't love me. ”

He stepped forward, gave Phoenix a friend-like hug, and finally said, "You don't have to worry about me, I won't pester you, and I won't give up on myself, I'm not that kind of person." It's just that, as a friend, as a man who has liked you in the past, present, and for a long time to come, I have one more thing to say: You can not love me, but you must ask yourself, find out who you love? I don't know how you feel about General Blue, but your expression in the conference hall today is not happy. If you really love him, then marry him, but if you don't, then don't wronged yourself. You know if you marry a guy you don't love, it's going to be unfair to me. ”

After Cassadine finished speaking, he didn't wait for the phoenix to answer, he waved his hand and left directly.

Phoenix stood upstairs, watching Cassadine go downstairs, waiting below for green eyes and Cassadine holding hands, and the figures of the two people gradually disappeared into the twilight. Cassadine's always straight back was a little stiff, but he didn't look back once.

The night finally fell completely, and the phoenix stood silently in the darkness, as if transformed into a sculpture.

She's a great talent in every way, but she's also just a beginner when it comes to relationships.

I don't know how long it took, the moon was already high in the sky above the imperial capital, the phoenix slowly exhaled, turned around, looked at the dark shadow at the end of the corridor, and said, "Who is coming to me? I'm really tired right now, I don't want to talk too much, I don't want to do anything. ”

The shadow squirmed a few times, the light and shadow distorted, and a human figure slowly walked out of the corner where no one was originally around, and it was Elaine from Earth Street. Seeing her grim face, it seemed that something was coming.
