Zhao Qian suspected that he had heard it wrong, Lin Yong's daughter? Wasn't Lin Yong their comrade? Although he went to Yan Wang late, Zhao Qian had seen this natural strongman several times, and he was a potential seedling. Later, when Zhao Qian learned that Lin Yong had died to save Yan Wang, he sighed even more. But Lin Yong's status was still lower than Zhao Qian's. Why did Yan Wang marry his daughter? How he didn't know this?
Zhou Mao Cheng also felt that what Yan Wang done make the seniority in the family became awkward. He coughed and said, "Didn't Wangye asked for Lin Yong to be conferred as Marquis? After the war, Wangye went to Shunde Prefecture to send Lin Yong's remains to his hometown, and along the way he took Lin Yong's only daughter back to the capital to take care of her."
So by taking care it means become Yan Wangfei?
Zhao Qian said in his heart, fortunately Lin Yong doesn't know these things. This was a great development, even if this person was his commanding general, he was a little too gloomy. However, Zhao Qian's silent criticism stayed in his heart, and thinking about this marriage he was still very optimistic. Yan Wang himself must be willing with this second marriage, and Lin Yong's only concern before his death could also have a good home, it was really a win-win situation for everyone.
The only problem was that Lin Wei Xi was originally their junior, but now she became Yan Wang's wife, this seniority in the family was a bit confusing.
When Zhou Mao Cheng spoke, Gu Hui Yan didn't stop him. He didn't think it was something difficult for people to see. As for Zhou Mao Cheng's winking, Zhao Qian was taken aback... Well, Gu Hui Yan admitted that he was a little embarrassed. After talking about taking care of his subordinate's daughter, he initially said that he would find a husband for her, but in the end, she entered Yan Wang Mansion and never go out again. He really seemed to let Lin Yong down.
Yan Wang was newly married, these subordinates and old comrades-in-arms of course had to make jokes, and Gu Hui Yan, who had always set himself apart and aloof, actually let them joke around. Zhao Qian was surprised in his heart, as he thought married people were really different. This time, Yan Wang knew that he was wrong. In normal days, how could Gu Hui Yan let them make fun of him.
But joke aside, actually Zhao Qian was very pleased with this result, and even the corners of his eyes were a little sour. After years of goodbye, when they met again, the old friend was safe and sound, and there was also a sweet wife at his side, Zhao Qian sincerely wishes them well. Over the years Yan Wang had fought in the north and south and had been invincible. In the army, he was the god of war trusted and worshipped by everyone. In Yan Wang Mansion he was the pillar. In the court he was also the reassurance for the emperor and ministers, Zhao Qian and Zhou Mao Cheng served Gu Hui Yan with all their heart. However, such a person worthy of everyone's respect was actually didn't have good fortune in personal relationships, for many years he had been alone no matter what he do. Now he had someone to accompany him by his side. Not only Zhao Qian and Zhou Mao Cheng, but also the 100,000 Yan army, were happy for Yan Wang from the bottom of their heart, and also wish Yan Wangfei well, and wished that Wangfei could accompany Yan Wang forever.
The old friends reunited, and after teasing for a while, they slowly talked about the affairs of the court and the army. Zhao Qian was in the middle of reporting the border affairs, when he turned across the courtyard, suddenly saw a woman in magnificent clothing surrounded by beautiful people on the opposite side. Before Zhao Qian could react, he saw Gu Hui Yan abandon the few people who were talking and walked quickly in that direction.
Halfway through Zhao Qian's sentence, even his mouth hasn't closed up, Yan Wang had already left. This was unprecedented in the past ten years and simply unimaginable. Zhao Qian was stunned, Zhou Mao Cheng understood, and said to him: "That's Yan Wangfei." After saying that, Zhou Mao Cheng still pointedly added: "This time is different from the past, you understand right?"
Zhao Qian also showed an understanding smile. Newly married, he also had family and children, he understands very well. Out of respect, Zhao Qian never looked in the direction of Yan Wangfei. Even though Lin shi previously was his daughter generation, but now she was the Yan Wangfei. That's why he should use his life to honor this woman, so even if he was dying from curiosity, Zhao Qian didn't glance in that direction.
However, he did not expect that after a while, Gu Hui Yan came back, this time there was an extremely bright woman standing beside him. The woman's skin was fair and soft, the jade ornaments were jingling, and her beautiful hair dotted with stars-like pearls. However, no amount of precious jewelry could compete with her. She smiled, nodded to Zhou Mao Cheng and the others, gently bowed to salute them: "Uncle Zhou, General Zhao Qian."
Zhou Mao Cheng and Zhao Qian hurriedly stop her. She was Yan Wangfei, they couldn't afford Lin Wei Xi's bowing. Zhou Mao Cheng's old face was a little red. He quickly glanced at Gu Hui Yan and said: "This humble official dare not accept this kind of call by Wangfei."
Lin Wei Xi called him "Uncle Zhou", then what about him and Yan Wang? Zhou Mao Cheng did not have such a long life to take advantage of Yan Wang.
Of course Zhou Mao Cheng and Zhao Qian did not dare to go to Lin Wei Xi. After they stretched out their hands, Lin Wei Xi also stood up, only done half the salutation. As a junior, it was no problem for her to bow down to these two people, but at the same time she was also Yan Wangfei. Today, she deliberately came to the outer courtyard to greet Gu Hui Yan. She didn't expect to meet Lin Yong's former comrade-in-arms and commanding officer on the way. They were also the capable subordinate of Yan Wang, and Lin Wei Xi had to come and greet these two people.
To avoid arousing suspicion, Zhao Qian didn't dare to look at Yan Wangfei too much, but even so this dazzling appearance made one feels dizzy. For a while, he didn't know whether to lament how Lin Yong gave birth to such a beautiful daughter, or lament that Yan Wang was really cunning. After Lin Wei Xi greeted the two people out of courtesy, she was after all the womenfolk of Yan Wang so she prepared to take her leave after a while. Lin Wei Xi glanced at Gu Hui Yan and asked tentatively, "Wangye?"
Looking at it seems like Gu Hui Yan and these two still had something to discuss. Lin Wei Xi looked at Gu Hui Yan inquiringly. Zhou Mao Cheng and Zhao Qian were not blind. Looking at it of course he had quite the insight, said: "I have an appointment with Old Zhao to go outside for a drink, it's no good to keep brothers waiting for long, I will take my leave first. Please Wangye and Wangfei forgive this one."
Gu Hui Yan also conveniently said: "It is not safe for you to walk alone, I will accompany you back."
Gu Hui Yan's face was not redden nor skip a beat when he easily abandon Zhao Qian and others who were still talking, and took Lin Wei Xi to the inner house. After the people gradually walked away, Zhao Qian dared to joke around with Zhou Mao Cheng: "I think this is the first. I can always report to Yan Wang whenever I have something. It seems that I don't understand the customs anymore, I pulled Yan Wang to talk for a long time, and it actually delay the newly-wed business."
Zhou Mao Cheng laughed: "You can get used to it if you stay in Yan Wang Mansion for a few more days."
Now that Gu Hui Yan was not there, the two of them had to talk a lot behind Yan Wang's back. Zhou Mao Cheng knew the detail of this matter, so he simply told Zhao Qian from the start when they went to Shunde Prefecture to deliver the skeleton. The two people secretly gossiped a lot, until they finally looked at each other laughing, perfectly satisfied.
Yan Wang's personal tidbits, this was rare.
Lin Wei Xi and Gu Hui Yan were walking on the ring corridor. Today, the sky was gray again, when they were only halfway, there was snow again.
"Wangye, you don't have to go to the government office from today? You don't have to get up early to go to court tomorrow?"
"Yes."
"Really?" Lin Wei Xi was very suspicious. Gu Hui Yan was very busy every day. Even Lin Wei Xi could only see him after dark, and before she woke up the next day, Gu Hui Yan already went out again. Suddenly learning that Gu Hui Yan would stay in the mansion from today to the fifteenth next year, Lin Wei Xi was very skeptical, always suspicious that Yan Wang would be called away in the next moment.
Gu Hui Yan laughed and said, "Of course it's true. These few days I'm busy with outside affairs and neglect the family affairs, now I can accompany you properly in these few days."
Although Lin Wei Xi did not completely believe it, there was already a smile in her eyes. It had just snowed last night, although the path had been cleared, but there was still a thick layer of snow in the woodland. A gust of wind blew, and a drop of snow fell on Lin Wei Xi's forehead. Lin Wei Xi reached out her hand, and looked up at the white sky: "It's snowing."
Gu Hui Yan followed in looking out and then stretched out his hand to tighten the cloak around Lin Wei Xi's neck: "The wind is strong outside, be careful of the cold."
Lin Wei Xi glared at Gu Hui Yan unconvincedly: "I'm not a kid, how come I can't even do this kind of thing? Don't always treat me like a kid."
Gu Hui Yan smiled and fastened her laces, and said, "All right."
Lin Wei Xi looked outwards, her eyes were full of crystal clear snow. Just so happened in that place there were steps to go down, and could go straight to the snow outside. Lin Wei Xi simply abandoned the maids and Gu Hui Yan, and ran to the spotless snow, while stepping on the snow she made a lot of footprints. She turned around and looked at Gu Hui Yan with a smile: "Wangye, look, it's snowing!"
Gu Hui Yan stood on the dark wood winding corridor, watching Lin Wei Xi's actions with a smile. Still said that she was not a child, already an adult, yet childishly stepped on the snow. Suddenly Gu Hui Yan's eyes moved. He was about to say something, but it was too late. Perhaps because it couldn't bear a heavy load, or perhaps because it was startled by Lin Wei Xi's voice, a bent pine branch shook and suddenly bounced back, shaking the soft white snow on the tree below, just happened to hit Lin Wei Xi's head.
Lin Wei Xi was caught off guard by the pile of snow dropped down on her head. She didn't wear a hood because it was inconvenient. Now the fresh snow happened to fell into her neck. It was extremely cold when the snow fell on the back of her neck. Lin Wei Xi said "Ah" and hurriedly shook the snow on her head.
The people in the corridor did not dare to laugh, but Gu Hui Yan couldn't help but laughed lightly. He walked to Lin Wei Xi, and while chuckling, he brushed the snowflakes off her head: "And you said that you are not a child, what about now?"
Lin Wei Xi was irritated all over her body. She quickly shook off the loose snow on the back collar. When she heard Gu Hui Yan's words, she was really angry and aggrieved: "How could I know this kind of thing will happened, by chance a pile of snow fell down and it fell on my head."
Gu Hui Yan couldn't help but laugh again, it was rare for him to be so open, and his eyes were filled with undisguised smiles. He lowered his head slightly and carefully brushed away pieces of snow on Lin Wei Xi's black hair.
Wan Xing and Wan Yue were very perceptive. They stepped forward and handed Lin Wei Xi a new hand stove, and then retreated, even stopping the other maids, not allowing them to disturb Wangye and Wangfei. Gu Hui Yan lowered his eyes slightly and patted the snow on Lin Wei Xi's body. From the side, still could see the smile on his face. Lin Wei Xi hugged the stove, her cheeks were red, her expression was not very happy.
Lin Wei Xi's neck was surrounded by fluffy white hairs, which made her skin looks translucent and her facial features brilliant. When she stood among the flawless snow and the black branches dripping water, she became more stunning and pure, like a goddess who had fallen into the world. And Gu Hui Yan's face was very handsome, although he was smiling, but the action of patting the snow on the woman was particularly delicate and gentle. Such a picture reflected in the eyes, and anyone who saw it had to praise it as immortal couple.
Gu Cheng Yao stood at the corner of another corridor and came to see this scene. It was the first time he saw Lin Wei Xi with such vivid expression, and also the first time he saw his father with gentle eyes. The two people looked very well matched, his footsteps could not help but stop. For a while he didn't know whether he should brazenly walk out like it was nothing, or he should pretend not to see and retreat.
Gu Cheng Yao didn't hesitate for long. Wan Yue, who was on the opposite side had good eyes, already seen him: "Shizi?"
Lin Wei Xi and Gu Hui Yan both raised their head and looked in this direction. Gu Cheng Yao had no choice but to take two steps forward, completely exposed to everyone's sight: "Father, mother."
Gu Hui Yan saw that it was Gu Cheng Yao, just nodded indifferently, and then continued to lower his head to clean the snow on Lin Wei Xi's collar. The smile on Lin Wei Xi's face quickly disappeared. She looked dignified and alienated, nodded to Gu Cheng Yao: "Shizi."
As if only in a flash, Lin Wei Xi was restored from the lively beauty to an aloof, dignified and indifferent stepmother. Gu Cheng Yao didn't know what he was feeling in his heart or why. His eyes accurately captured many details. For example, his father's one hand was picking the snow on Lin Wei Xi's head, and the other hand still fell on Lin Wei Xi's waist. The distance between the two of them was extremely close, and Lin Wei Xi was very calm at this level of touch, without any discomfort.
Gu Cheng Yao's eyes turned around unobtrusively. Lin Wei Xi originally greeted Gu Cheng Yao very formally, and suddenly felt a pain on the top of her head. She covered her hair and raised her head painfully to complain: "Wangye, you just grabbed my hair!"
"Really? I didn't pay attention." Gu Hui Yan withdrew his hand calmly, as if it was a momentary mistake. He looked at Lin Wei Xi's watery eyes that was caused by the pain, and felt a little uncomfortable. He rubbed the place where Lin Wei Xi was pulled, and asked in a low voice, "Does it hurt?"
