MTL - After Being Forced to Marry the Evil Star General-Chapter 67

Zhao Yelan clarified what happened from Wang Guisheng's mouth.

When Zhifu Yin realized that Yan Mingting was having an affair with "Fu Qian", he sent someone to the capital to inquire about Fu Qian, so this matter spread to the capital.

But by coincidence, Fu Qian and his two or three friends went to the south to play, so it was impossible to check for a while.

The interrogation of Yin Zhifu after he was brought to the capital was a serious matter, no one came to ask him about this kind of affair, and he thought that Zhao Yelan's impersonation of Fu Qian was known to the court in advance, so he only confessed his own thing.

So this matter has become a mystery, but the rumors have not stopped. After a little bit of wind, after chewing it in everyone's mouth, adding oil and vinegar to season it, it is not the original version when it is spit out.

At first, there were only doubts, but later everyone began to believe it.

"So, is this true?" Wang Guisheng asked cautiously.

Yan Mingting listened, put the medicine to Zhao Yelan's mouth, and said: "Drink the medicine quickly, and I will be innocent after drinking it."

"..." Zhao Yelan was forced to finish drinking a large bowl, and felt that it tasted bitter. As soon as he frowned, Yan Mingting put a small bag of candied fruit in his hand.

Zhao Yelan took a candied fruit and said, "Fake, I am that Fu Qian."

"That's how it is. I find it strange, how could the general leave you to look at Fu Qian? Maybe the rumors will be broken after I leave Beijing." After Wang Guisheng got the answer, he guessed the key point. Qiao, smiled, and went out to do things outside.

Yan Mingting watched him leave, pouted his lips: "Listen to this kid, he seems to like you very much?"

"Which ear did you hear?" Zhao Yelan chewed on the candied fruit, stretched out his hand to pinch his ear, "I think this ear is useless."

"Ouch, be gentle." Yan Mingting called out twice, and when he heard footsteps outside, he immediately gave him a wink, "Please save face, Mr. Zhao, please save face."

Zhao Yelan let go of his hand, and looked at Yin Pinglu and Zuo Ran who walked in with his usual expression: "What's the matter?"

"My lord, Kuang Sheng has rushed over. He said that it's raining not only in Pi County, but also in several other counties," Yin Ping said happily.

"That's good." Zhao Yelan breathed a sigh of relief and asked again, "Where's Li Yucheng?"

Li Yucheng did not go to Zhizhou with them, but evacuated Huaizhou with the Cheng family and headed for Quzhou.

"This is a letter from him just now, saying that he will wait for us in Wancheng."

Wancheng is in the north of Pi County, and it is also a necessary place to go back to Beijing. If Quzhou rushes there, it will take a few more days to travel.

"Then we'll rest here for a few days before leaving." Yan Mingting said, "It's not too late to leave after you recover."

"Alright." Zhao Yelan still wanted to stay and watch the aftermath.

Fortunately, Wang Guisheng is not a person who talks about wars on paper, and it happened that Yan Mingting brought so many people here, and there were enough people to help, so he quickly restored the infrastructure in the city, and sent letters to officials in other places, The people can be sent back.

On the day of departure, half of the people in the city had already returned.

Seeing that Wang Guisheng was doing things steadily and down to earth, Zhao Yelan felt relieved, and the two exchanged political opinions while walking outside the gate.

Yan Mingting was a few meters behind, with his hands crossed over his chest, staring at their backs expressionlessly.

Zuo Ran and Yin Pinglu stood behind him, one left and one right, Zuo Ran didn't notice anything wrong at all, and said: "Master Zhao and this Mr. Wang seem to have a good relationship, but such a good person as Mr. Zhao should be Everyone loves it."

"People who appreciate each other will naturally be attracted to each other." After Yin Pinglu finished speaking, seeing Yan Mingting's expression was not right, he immediately added, "But the adults are different from the generals, they are a match made in heaven."

Yan Mingting turned his head and glanced at her appreciatively: "If you can talk, talk more."

Yin Pinglu suppressed a smile, and said: "You have one civil and one martial arts, tolerate each other, and you must have each other in your life."

Yan Mingting was very satisfied, his chin almost went up to the sky, and he turned to look at Zuo Ran.

"It's my turn?" Zuo Ran held back for a long time, and only said, "I wish you a happy marriage for a hundred years and a baby boy soon."

Yin Pinglu patted her, and she immediately changed her words, and used all the idioms she had used in her life: "I wish you a happy marriage for a hundred years, harmony and wealth, and abundant wealth..."

Yin Pinglu couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

Yan Mingting also raised his voice and laughed: "Yes, the simplest language, the most powerful blessing."

Zhao Yelan and Wang Guisheng heard the laughter and looked back at them. Wang Guisheng asked curiously, "I haven't had time to ask, who are those two girls?"

"Subordinates of Yan Mingting." Zhao Yelan said.

Although they haven't been formally appointed yet, Yan Mingting decided to bring the two of them back to the capital. At first, Zuo Ran thought about going to the border, joining Zhong Yuehong's team, and then let that Yin Pinglu continue to live in the town, so that he could find some work, and it would not be a problem for the two of them to support themselves.

But Yan Mingting dismissed her opinion. First, the world is peaceful now, and there are no more opportunities in the frontier. Even if you join now, you can only get the position of a small soldier at most. Secondly, Yin Pinglu has lost his talents, and the way of life in the capital city is much more than that in the border towns.

After the final discussion, both of them agreed to go to the capital, Zuo Ran will serve under Yan Mingting's command, and Yin Pinglu will temporarily serve as Zhao Yelan's accountant.

Zhao Yelan has more and more industries, and he is about to open up a first-line goods route in the south of the Yangtze River. He needs a smart, capable and trustworthy person to take care of him. Yin Pinglu is currently the most suitable candidate.

Considering that they needed a place to settle down and live, if they lived in the General's Mansion, it would inevitably cause people to gossip, so Zhao Yelan rented a house in the north of the city to them at a low price, and paid the rent annually.

"Which one of them is the prefect's daughter?" Wang Guisheng asked in a low voice.

"Ok."

"Although she has escaped from the prefect Yin's case, won't bringing her to Beijing at this time arouse suspicion and suspicion?" Wang Guisheng asked.

"The more magnanimous you are, the less people will doubt it." Zhao Yelan said, "And what's there to be suspicious about, suspecting that someone like me, Zhao, is greedy for her beauty or money? I still lack these?"

Wang Guisheng was speechless after being blocked, and smiled helplessly: "What your lord said is true, I was worrying too much."

Zhao Yelan walked to the carriage, but was pulled aside by Wang Guisheng.

"Master Zhao, I solemnly apologize to you for my recklessness and ignorance in the past." Wang Guisheng cupped his hands and bowed to him seriously, "I read sage books in vain and listened to outside rumors, so I read you To be a treacherous jackal, to write articles that insult you with a pen as a gun, I really feel ashamed."

"Let this matter go, I can't even see who I am, and you outsiders are even more blind." Zhao Yelan said, "You are not the only one who scolded me, but I am the only one who appreciates it." Your ability, I hope you can make some achievements here and realize your ambitions."

"I will do my best not to let Mr. Zhao down."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Yan Mingting looked at it from a distance and felt that his eyes were about to go blind, so he turned his head and said to Zuo Ran, "Go on."

Zuo Ran grimaced and continued to search for idioms and verses: "You and your lord are destined to live forever, to live a long life, to be safe every year, to be safe and secure with tens of thousands of buildings, big arms, two arms..."

"The underprivileged people in the world are all happy." Yin Pinglu supported his forehead and interrupted her, "It seems that you have to re-do your homework."

Zuo Ran: Huh huh.

After bidding farewell to Wang Guisheng, Zhao Yelan got into the carriage, Zuo Ran and Yin Pinglu sat in front and drove, Yan Mingting rode a horse beside him, and set off all the way to the gate of the city.

After driving a certain distance, the carriage stopped suddenly, Zhao Yelan asked, "What happened?"

"Mengting, come out and have a look." Yan Mingting said.

Zhao Yelan opened the curtain suspiciously, and saw the people on both sides of the road staring at his carriage.

"Respectfully send off Master Zhao and General Yan!"

"Master Zhao, walk slowly and pay attention to safety on the road."

"When will your lord and the general come to Huaizhou, come to our Pi County?"

"Welcome all soldiers to come to Pi County again, and we will definitely prepare good wine and food to entertain you!"

"Bon Voyage!"

Not many people came back from the city, but they all came out to see them off at this time, the speed of the team slowed down a lot, and everyone followed them all the way to the city gate.

Yan Mingting sent everyone here, and after waving goodbye to them, he got into the carriage, put a jar of wine on the table, and said with a smile: "This is the Baijia wine that everyone gave you."

After Zhao Yelan saw the figures of those people drifting away, he turned his gaze away and asked doubtfully, "Baijiajiu?"

"Yes, they don't have much left at home, so they thought of this way, everyone scooped up a spoonful of wine from home, put together this jar of wine, and gave it to their most admired Master Zhao." Yan Mingting said.

Zhao Yelan stared at the jar curiously.

"Smell it, does it smell good?" Yan Mingting opened the lid and handed it to him.

Zhao Yelan sniffed carefully for a while: "Scent."

"Do you want to have a taste?"

"No." Zhao Yelan really didn't want to get drunk and cause shame, so he put the wine away, "Since it's a good thing, it should be preserved."

"That's right, Mr. Zhao is right." Yan Mingting saw through it but didn't tell the truth.

Pi County is the boundary between Huaizhou and Zhizhou. There is an official road going north here, and the next destination is Wancheng.

Three days later, the team finally arrived in Wancheng. With a wave of Zhao Yelan's hand, he directly booked the largest inn in the city, so that the soldiers could stay comfortably for a few days. It was this group of people who worked the hardest on the journey.

Zhao Yelan went back to the room to take a rest, changed his clothes, and then found Yin Pinglu, and asked her what delicious food and fun there is in Wancheng.

"There are several special snacks in Wancheng, eighteen dumplings, Linglong bean buns, glutinous rice cakes and sweet bean cakes."

"Is there anything special about these eighteen dumplings?" Zhao Yelan asked curiously.

"The eighteen dumplings, as the name suggests, are dumplings made with eighteen kinds of ingredients."

"Eighteen kinds?" Yan Mingting on the side asked in surprise, "I've only eaten dumplings with three kinds of ingredients, but I haven't eaten dumplings with eighteen kinds. Will so many ingredients not change the taste?"

"So this is a test of the cook's skill. It is necessary to cut carefully and keep the freshness and deliciousness of the ingredients." Yin Pinglu said.

Yan Mingting couldn't wait to try it, and looked at Zhao Yelan with great interest: "Shall we try it?"

"Let's go."

A few people set off immediately, asked someone about the best shop selling eighteen dumplings in the lower city, and then walked towards the east side of the city.

At this time, a group of people passed by them, the leader suddenly stopped, turned around, fanned his fan and chased after him: "Brother Zhao! Brother Zhao...Zhao Yelan, it's me!"

They turned around and saw that it was Li Yucheng, then turned around immediately and continued walking forward.

"I thought it took a while for you guys to arrive, but I didn't expect it to be so soon." After Li Yucheng finished speaking, he found that no one was paying attention to him, and continued to babble, "Where are you going? Are you going to find me? Hey You say it's a coincidence that we can meet each other on the street, isn't it a god-sent fate?"

Still no one paid attention to him, Li Yucheng stopped walking, seeing them walking forward quickly, he didn't pay attention to his intentions at all, so he had to send a few followers away, and then trot to catch up, until he stood in front of a shop, he stopped pace.

Li Yucheng wiped off his sweat and asked, "What are you here to buy?"

"Ten servings of eighteen dumplings." Zhao Yelan said.

"Ten servings?" Li Yucheng counted the number of people present, including Gao Tan and the two little girls, there were only six people in total, "Can you finish eating ten servings?"

"One for each of us." Zhao Yelan pointed to Yan Mingting, "He has five."

Li Yucheng was dumbfounded, and said: "It's because of your wealth, ordinary people can't afford him."

Zhao Yelan couldn't help laughing, but Yan Mingting hooked Zhao Yelan's shoulder proudly: "Why, someone spends money on me, are you jealous?"

Li Yucheng wasn't jealous at first, but after hearing what he said, hey, he was really jealous.

Who doesn't want a walking purse! The key is such a unparalleled purse!

"Brother Zhao, how about you and me, we join forces and become the richest man in the country!" Li Yucheng said.

"Aren't you tired of living, kid?" Yan Mingting rolled up his sleeves and was about to beat someone up. Li Yucheng was so frightened that he turned his head and ran away. He bumped into someone accidentally, and both of them fell to the ground.

"Who doesn't keep eyes open, do you know who I am?!" Li Yucheng bared his teeth and yelled.

"His grandma's, which turtle grandson is it?!" The other party rubbed his **** and stood up.

The two looked at each other, it was really jealous when the enemy met.

"Hey! You Fu Qian, you actually came here to seek death, see if I don't kill you!" Li Yucheng rushed up immediately.

"Bah, I can step on skin rashes/□□, today I will fight with you to the death!"

The two were scuffling in the street in a blink of an eye.

Zhao Yelan and the others looked over and couldn't help frowning. Yan Mingting stepped forward and separated the two, holding a weak chicken in one hand, and said, "Why are you arguing, don't be ashamed here, fight somewhere where no one is around. hit."

When Fu Qian looked at Yan Mingting, he was struck by lightning: "Yan, Yanyanyan Mingting?!"

"what?"

Fu Qian looked not far away, and when he saw Zhao Yelan, his legs almost went limp with fright.

As soon as Yan Mingting let go, Fu Qian collapsed to the ground, looking at Zhao Yelan in horror.

"What's wrong with him?" Yan Mingting walked to Zhao Yelan's side and asked.

Li Yucheng also came over, remembering that when Fu Qian saw Zhao Yelan in the capital before, he was as frightened as a quail, not daring to make a sound, but it was not as serious as today.

"He seems to be very afraid of you, do you know each other?" Li Yucheng asked.

Zhao Yelan shook his fan, raised his eyebrows and said, "He once saw me interrogating prisoners by accident."

"Then you must be very powerful." Li Yucheng gave a thumbs up sincerely, "His father is the Minister of Dali Temple, and he was not scared like this."

Fu Qian looked at Yan Mingting, then at Zhao Yelan, his face was pale, he stood up in embarrassment, stepped forward and said, "Lord Zhao, listen to my explanation!"

Everyone looked at him inexplicably.

"I've never had an affair with General Yan! I don't know where the rumors came from!" Fu Qian tremblingly said, "I've been away from home for a while, and I didn't know until I received a letter from my family a while ago. There is such a rumor!"

Before Zhao Yelan could speak, he said again: "You must believe me, no matter how tall and mighty General Yan is, handsome, dignified, heroic, and handsome..."

Zhao Yelan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Yin Pinglu reminded Zuo Ran on the side: "Remember, these are all idioms."

Zuo Ran: "Okay, okay."

Fu Qian praised Yan Mingting in one breath, but his voice suddenly changed: "But I don't like men!"

Zhao Yelan heard the boss say that the dumplings are ready, and just as he turned around to take them, Fu Qian pulled his arm, and the long-awaited dumplings fell to the ground.

He glanced down, then raised his head to look at Fu Qian.

"Lord Zhao, you really have to trust me! Someone must be framed for me, coveting my name, bluffing and cheating under the name of the most beautiful man in the capital, maybe deliberately seducing General Yan! You must If this person is caught, punish him!" Fu Qian said excitedly.

Zhao Yelan looked at Yan Mingting: "Hit him."
