2613 Chapter 2612-bestowed marriage
After a few days of rest, Cheng huaijin and general Shi mu were able to move freely, but they couldn’t use force for the time being.
Other than bestowing a marriage upon Lu Yang, the Emperor had also asked Cheng huaijin a question after he was free to move around. He asked if he wanted the reward from the martial arts competition right now.
Of course, Cheng huaijin wanted it now. He said that he wanted to ask Gu yingxue for help.
It just so happened that Gu yingxue was 15 years old this year. She was already of marriageable age and could get married. The Emperor waved his hand and bestowed another marriage to the two of them.
At the same time, he also betrothed another princess and prince of the western lands to the Prince and Princess of the great Zhou Dynasty.
A few happy events added together diluted the somewhat tense atmosphere in some courier stations in various countries.
Shi mu didn’t make a scene when the Emperor bestowed the marriage. He only found an opportunity to meet with Cheng huaijin.
Cheng huaijin looked at the man in front of him, not knowing what he was going to do.
“I want to see miss yingxue,” Shi mu said sincerely.
Cheng huaijin didn’t really want him to meet Gu yingxue. He wasn’t afraid that she would take Gu yingxue away, but he was afraid that he would hurt her.
Gu yingxue had been traumatized by the kidnapping incident at the Peng family in kun city. After knowing Shi MU’s motive, she was still very afraid. As long as she didn’t go back to the Gu family, second white would be there to watch over her.
Hence, Cheng huaijin didn’t want Shi mu to see Gu yingxue.
Seeing Cheng huaijin’s refusal, Shi mu didn’t let him say it out loud. He said directly, ” “If Prince ah hai is worried, you can follow miss Ying Xue the entire time. I, I just have some things to say to miss Ying Xue. If I don’t, I won’t be at ease for the rest of my life.”
Cheng huaijin thought about it and felt that Shi mu was a good person. With him looking after him, nothing should happen.
Moreover, rather than leaving a person who no one knew what he was up to in the dark, it was better to bring him out in the open and make things clear to everyone.
Hence, Cheng huaijin agreed. However, he didn’t agree on behalf of Gu yingxue. He only said to Shi mu, ” “I can’t make the decision on this matter. General Shi mu, I still have to ask for Xue ‘er’s opinion. If she is willing, I will send someone to inform you. If she is not willing, I will not force her. ”
“Okay,” Shi mu nodded without hesitation.
Just this point alone put Shi mu at ease.
If Cheng huaijin had agreed to bring her to see you, he might still be worried about Gu yingxue following Cheng huaijin.
Now that he knew Cheng huaijin was going to ask Gu yingxue for her opinion, Shi mu was relieved.
When he returned to the Gu residence, Gu yingxue happened to be there too. She was chatting with the four Gu sisters. When Cheng huaijin came over, he was teased by the sisters.
Gu yingxue’s face was extremely red. She had never thought that the condition that her brother Xiao Yang had won with all his might would be to propose to the Emperor. She was still in a daze!
“Eldest sister, second sister and Xin Xin si, don’t say anything. I’m a man with thick skin, so it’s fine if you say something, but Xue ‘er’s skin is thin. Why don’t we wait until Xue ‘er isn’t here, and I’ll sit here and you guys can slowly talk about me?” Cheng huaijin looked at the embarrassed Gu yingxue and smiled at the Gu sisters.
“Tsk, people who are bestowed with marriage are really amazing!”
“This is only the bestowment, and you’re already protecting me!”
“We can’t say anything bad about Xue ‘er in the future. Jin doesn’t like to talk, but when he’s sharp-tongued, even Huo Wentong might not be able to win!”
