Volume 1: Morning and Twilight Looks Like Each Other Twenty-Five: On the Wedding Night, the Bride Disappears
"Worship heaven and earth!"
The loud voice of the prime minister echoed in Zhang's house.
But when the man bent down, he could only hear the whispers of others.
Xi Po reminded Jiang Mian in a whisper on the side, "Miss, worship heaven and earth, don't be stunned." ”
The surrounding guests looked at the bride and felt so strange, her shoulders shook, don't cry.
Jiang Mian refused to worship heaven and earth with Zhang Nanjin, let alone the next two worships.
She's still waiting, waiting for that person.
She was still holding out hope, "He will come, he will come." "Maybe it's just something stumbling up. Jiang Mian comforted himself like this.
After a stalemate for a stick of incense, she still didn't wait for the man she cared about, Jiang Mian completely lost confidence, her legs were weak and she almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, the groom officer next to her helped her.
"It's about the decency of the two families, or let's leave the process first, and then we'll talk about it when there's no one?"
Today's Zhang Nanjin is surprisingly smart.
He knew that Jiang Mian was unwilling to marry him, and he didn't even invite any of his best friends on the wedding day, which was enough to show her disgust with this family affair.
But everything has to wait until the raw rice is cooked and the rice is ripe, so he is willing to endure this time.
Facing Zhang Nanjin, who had become gentle after not seeing him for a while, Jiang Mian not only felt moved, but felt that he had bad intentions.
And so it is.
Jiang Mian didn't care about her reputation outside, but she couldn't ignore the face of her parents, so she still endured her grief and worshipped the man.
The night of the candles in the cave room should have been the most uneasy but joyful moment for every woman, but today when she arrived at Jiang Mian, there was only a death-like silence.
Looking at the dragon and phoenix candles flickering by candlelight on the table, Jiang Mian was angry, and took the scissors to cut off the wick.
The room was mostly darkened.
Recalling the good memories he and Jiang Zhichen shared, Jiang Mian lay on the head of the bed and cried loudly.
The cry alarmed the Xi Po who was guarding the door outside.
"Ouch, my eldest lady, don't you want to cry like this on your wedding day, you should be unhappy when your husband's family sees it, quickly wipe away your tears."
The more Xi Po said this, the louder Jiang Mian cried.
She wished that the people of the Zhang family would kick her out, so that she could go to the barracks to find her brother and Jiang Zhichen.
Anyway, my brother won't ignore her, the only sister.
When Jiang Mian was tired of crying, he leaned on the side of the bed and slept quietly, not realizing that he was being carried away from Zhang's house.
When she woke up again, she was greeted by a decoration she had never seen before, but it looked like it was an ordinary inn.
...... who was standing by the window drinking And who?
Jiang Mian raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, and saw it more clearly, it was a man's back, looking a little lonely and lonely.
At this time, a blue bird flew outside, and a letterhead was tied to its feet, thinking that there should be something important, and Jiang Mian also read some important information from this bird.
For example, this man is not an idle person. Ordinary people don't use bluebirds to pass on books, but mostly use carrier pigeons.
At the moment when the man turned around and was about to write a reply, he met Jiang Mian's bright eyes.
"Brother ...... military advisor" Jiang Mian was stunned, and subconsciously shouted out the nickname he gave Jiang Zhichen when he was a child.
After calling her, she realized that she seemed to be reckless, and lowered her head with a red face, no longer daring to look him in the eye.
Jiang Zhichen also lost his mind for a moment after hearing the soft and glutinous military brother, but he quickly returned to normal, turned his face to the window, and said in a deep voice: "Your brother asked me to pick you up, and we will set off to return to the barracks after dawn tomorrow."
"Then you ......"
Jiang Mian originally wanted to ask the man if he came voluntarily, but before she could finish speaking, Jiang Zhichen seemed to have guessed what she was going to say, "I only obey the general's orders." ”
In a word, it completely blocked Jiang Mian's heart that had been throbbing for ten years.
There was no expression on her face, she sorted out her clothes and was about to go downstairs, but she was dragged by Jiang Zhichen when she opened the door, "What are you doing?" The capital can't stay any longer. ”
The man's face was full of incomprehension, but Jiang Mian said indifferently: "Anyway, he and I have already visited the church, and we are a serious couple, and they can't do anything to me when I go back now." Master Soldier, please go back, tell my brother that I'm fine, and let him not worry about me. ”
Jiang Mian said angry words.
But also, what woman would want to hear such words when she was waiting for a man she fell in love with at a young age.
After saying that, she wanted to pull out her hand and go back to Zhang's house, but no matter how hard she tried, she still couldn't break free from Jiang Zhichen's shackles, "Don't make trouble, your brother is worried about you." ”
"My daughter of a dignified general of Zhenguo, can you still let him give me grievances? Please tell your brother that Jiang Mian is married to a wife, and in the future, he will be filial to his in-laws to assist his husband, so that his brother can train with peace of mind and protect the territory of the Dragon Kingdom. ”
Not a word is sincere.
These words against his will, every time he said a word, Jiang Mian's heart hurt a little deeper.
Looking at the man in front of her who she had admired for several years, she suddenly felt that time was really playing a joke on her, giving her hope and plunging her into endless despair.
"If you say goodbye today, I'm afraid it's goodbye forever. The military advisor must take care of himself, assist his brother, and let his brother carry forward the glory of the general's mansion for several lifetimes. ”
Jiang Mian didn't want to commit to Zhang Nanjin, she had already heard many deeds about this man from Wen Yuan.
If he is really an ordinary person with an innocent net worth, maybe he can slowly fall in love with him after marriage.
But the things that Zhang Nanjin had done could only disgust Jiang Mian.
She would not marry such a person who wronged herself.
Since the beloved who once naively thought he didn't care about himself, what is there to be nostalgic for in this world, his father and mother are still brothers......
Rather than living the second half of life in such a painful way, it is better to die happily.
Jiang Mian had already planned that if his brother or Jiang Zhichen hadn't come to the cave room before, he would finish himself off with a white silk.
But Jiang Zhichen came, but he only brought a sentence "I only obey the general's orders".
I can't go back, I can't go back to the old days.
Jiang Zhichen was so wise and keen, as soon as he heard it, he sensed that something was wrong with Jiang Mian's words, and the strength in his hand was also a little deeper because he was too nervous and worried, "Amien, don't do stupid things, without you, how can the old general and his wife live?" How can your brother still lead troops to fight without distractions? ”
"Silly?" Jiang Mian smiled contemptuously, with sarcasm in his eyes, "What does Master Military Master think I am going to do?" Now that Jiang Mian is married, he will definitely live in a simple house in the future, and abide by his duties at home with his husband and children, and he will never be able to meet the man next to him alone, so he ...... Farewell, it's possible. ”
The atmosphere between the two was awkward, until Jiang Mian spoke again, "Master Xingjunshi, I'm going back, please let go, after tonight, you and I will return to the bridge and return to the bridge, I have never loved you, just like you, have never loved me." ”
The man slowly let go of the hand that was holding Jiang Mian, and this loosening also made Jiang Mian recognize Jiang Zhichen's true feelings for him over the years.
It turned out that he had always been self-inflicted, and he really never cared about himself.
The moment he turned around, the tears that Jiang Mian had endured for a long time finally fell.
My life may be frozen from this moment.
Jiang Mian wiped away the tears on his face with a smile, stubbornly raised his head, lifted his skirt and left.
Jiang Zhichen was still in place, still maintaining the posture just now.
He clearly saw the tears glittering in the corners of Amien's eyes.
Closing his eyes, Jiang Zhichen made a decision in his heart that he would never regret.
Jiang Mian, who had just come downstairs, was dragged hard and pulled back, and the whole person fell into a cold and reassuring embrace.
The man behind him grinned helplessly and bitterly, his voice was low and hoarse, with a little more vicissitudes, "Don't make trouble, come back to the barracks with me, I'll marry you." ”
He didn't know how long Jiang Mian had been waiting for this sentence, since the day of the meeting, Jiang Mian had been waiting, waiting for him to ride a high-headed horse and bring a colorful sedan chair to marry him.
Jiang Mian's stiff body was like a piece of wood, but that fiery heart that was still beating could still melt Jiang Zhichen.
Putting his face close to Jiang Mian, the body that was cold in the cool breeze of the night seemed to be warmed up in an instant.
Jiang Zhichen coveted the temperature of Jiang Mian's body, and was unwilling to let go of the girl who had been following him since she was a child and calling her brother in a sweet and soft voice, "I know it's wrong, come with me, your brother is really worried about you......"
Recalling Jiang Mian's reaction when he said this sentence just now, Jiang Zhichen immediately added, "I'm also worried about you." ”
He was really worried.
To be precise, it should be fear.
Jiang Zhichen was afraid that Jiang Mian would already be married to Zhang Nanjin when he arrived, and he was afraid that the woman he had loved for many years in his heart would no longer want to see him.
As long as there is no cave house, they are not really husband and wife, but fortunately, they caught up by themselves.
However, Jiang Zhichen was also ready to take Jiang Mian away even if the two of them had already cooked raw rice in the cave room, but everything was so coincidental.
Jiang Mian turned around cautiously, and there was still a blush on his raised little face that had not disappeared, looking delicate and cute, "Really? ”
The lack of confidence in her eyes still betrayed her.
She cares about this man so much that she can't even do anything for him.
Seeing that Jiang Mian had calmed down and was willing to listen to himself, Jiang Zhichen relaxed his tense nerves, hugged her and whispered comfortingly: "Really..." After he sighed, his tone was quite doting, "So it's okay to follow me back to the barracks obediently, everything will be discussed in the long run after seeing your brother."
Jiang Mian is not that kind of pretentious woman, Jiang Zhichen's gentleness is the best comfort for her, and just now he said that he would marry himself......
"Good...... I'll go with you. Without the slightest hesitation, she took the initiative to take Jiang Zhichen's hand.
When he left the city gate, Jiang Mian was hidden under a black cloak, so he didn't attract the attention of the surrounding guards.
In this way, the two rode together in the darkness of the night and left the capital.
