Hearing Hu Lao's words, Xie Yixiang, who was at the head of the right seat, suddenly turned red. I didn't think of going around and around, but my father still got to the point. You must know that you and your senior brother have been engaged to the marriage contract since childhood, and after this year, they will be 20 years old, and they have already reached the age of talking about marriage. Therefore, my father's intention to invite Hu Lao and his senior brother to his home tonight for the New Year is obvious, which is to finalize the marriage for the two of them and discuss the date of marriage.

For a while, Xie Yixiang was both surprised and delighted, and even had a trace of inexplicable melancholy. She couldn't help but peek at Xian Jingyue beside her, but saw that her senior brother's face was also a little dazed, obviously at a loss like herself.

I only heard Xie Fengxuan smile and said: "Back then, Hu Lao and I agreed with each other to set this family business for the two children, firstly, I wanted to rely on my Xie Fengxuan's thin face to find a good career for Jingyue, so as not to delay his skills; You must know that not long ago, Jingyue made great achievements in Yumen Pass, and the soaring yellow is just around the corner, but my Xie family is in the waning mountains and precarious. So while these two children are still young, and they have been abiding by the rules and duties over the years, you and I might as well get rid of this family business, so as not to delay the future of Jingyue, I don't know what Hu Lao thinks?"

Although Xie Fengxuan said this calmly and even smiled, when his words fell, there was no doubt that a thunderbolt exploded in the entire hall, which frightened everyone present and didn't know why. Hu Lao was so anxious that he got up from the chair, accidentally dropped the dishes and chopsticks in front of him to the ground, and exclaimed, "This is ...... The ...... was so frightened that he didn't know what to say. Xian Jingyue next to him also hurriedly stood up and asked slowly, "But what is the deficiency of the little nephew, or has he done something inappropriate?"

Xie Fengxuan shook his head slowly and said with a smile: "'Jiangnan One Knife' is bright and fair, and his words and deeds can be described as a model in the world. If there are heroes and heroes among these juniors, then you are the only one who Jingyue first, how can I, Xie Fengxuan, look at the wrong person?" After that, he poured himself another glass of wine, and said with a smile in his mouth: "Although Xie has not stepped out of the door these days, he has also heard a lot of things in the court. It is said that in order to thoroughly investigate how the 'corpse army' passed through the defense of the Mobei area, the emperor is now reorganizing the pro-army Governor's Mansion. And this time, you fought alone against the allied forces of the Western Regions outside the Yumen Pass, and saved the lives of 3,000 soldiers from the hands of the Shenhuo Sect, which can be described as a great achievement; When this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, don't let this marriage contract with my Xie family in the early years drag down your future. ”

Hearing Xie Fengxuan's remarks, everyone present was puzzled, Xie Fengxuan, as the dignified founding father of the country and the only first-class general in the court, Xian Jingyue and the Xie family had a family affair, which was undoubtedly the icing on the cake and had a bright future, so how could it drag down his future? Xian Jingyue couldn't help but frown, and said lightly: "If the general does not want his junior nephew to take over the post of deputy commander, then I will refuse the emperor; and even this post of commander can be resigned. ”

Xie Fengxuan shook his head suddenly, and said with a straight face: "The pro-army Governor's Mansion is a private guard directly under the emperor, and it is dedicated to spying on the privacy of the court and the opposition for him, which can be described as pervasive and ubiquitous; If you can take the position of deputy commander in Jingyue first, not only will you have a bright future, but also the luck of the people in the world, and you can even lead the pro-army Governor's Mansion on the right path. It's a pity that your temperament is too stubborn, if you can be more tactful and more skilled, with your own ability, how can you be just a deputy now? Therefore, this post of deputy commander of the pro-military Governor's Mansion must be assumed by you, and you must not give it to others. ”

Hearing this, Xian Jingyue couldn't help but be stunned on the spot, and for a while she couldn't figure out what this General Xie meant. He was about to ask another question, but Hu Lao next to him had already breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and hurriedly stopped Xian Jingyue with his eyes, and said to Xie Fengxuan respectfully: "Our master and servant were originally from poor backgrounds, so they didn't dare to climb high. Thanks to the general's care over the years, the villain is already grateful to Dade and has nothing to repay, where can he dare to be delusional? Since the general wants to dissolve the marriage between Jingyue and the third lady, the villain is not a brazen person, and he must obey the general's wishes. ”

After that, Hu Lao groped in his arms with trembling hands, took out a cloth bag and opened it, and took out a boxy document from it, which was the marriage contract made for Xian Jingyue and Xie Yixiang back then, and he and Xie Fengxuan each held a copy. You must know that Elder Hu has lived a lot of age, and he can be regarded as well-informed, and tonight he suddenly received an invitation from Xie Fengxuan, asking him and Xian Jingyue to come to the General's Mansion to have this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and he already knew in his heart, guessing that General Xie was probably going to discuss the marriage of Xian Jingyue and Xie Yixiang with himself. So he was prepared to carry this paper marriage contract with him.

Unexpectedly, now, Mr. Hu took out the marriage contract from his arms, but not to plan the marriage date for the two children, but to cancel the marriage.

Xie Yixiang, who was on the side, heard his father say that he was going to dissolve the marriage between himself and his senior brother, and the whole person was completely stunned and almost lost consciousness. At this time, seeing that Hu Lao took out the marriage contract, she finally came back to her senses, and hurriedly asked Xie Fengxuan: "Is this ...... What does that mean exactly?"

Xie Fengxuan couldn't help but sigh, but he pretended to smile lightly: "This time, I have the guidance of my teacher, and I know that there is an army of foreign races from the previous dynasty quietly moving south, intending to sneak attack Jinling. Due to the urgency of the matter, I could not reveal the identity and whereabouts of the teacher, so as to confirm the matter to the emperor, so I had no choice but to make an initiative and go to the newly established 'Piloting Battalion' to draw 800 soldiers. After this battle, although the alien army was finally wiped out, and the 800 soldiers were almost wiped out, although the emperor did not say anything, only leaving the four words 'merit and demerit offset', but from what I know about him for more than 30 years, our emperor has obviously been really angry this time, and even has murderous intentions; not because of the lives of the 800 soldiers of the 'Piloting Battalion', but because of my Xie Fengxuan's private move to transfer troops. ”

After saying that, he couldn't help laughing, drank the glass of wine in front of him, and said: "As early as when I went to the 'Piloting Battalion' to transfer troops, I already knew that this would be the result, but unfortunately I had to be on the bow. You must know that in life, there are some things that you know are killing yourself, but there are still people who insist on doing them, and I, Xie Fengxuan, am no exception. ”
