Chapter 32
When the Liang and Zheng families were discussing marriage, a group of female members of the Zheng family specifically chose him as a guest during his bathing time. Liang Yifei didn't need to think deeply to know what this meant.

He didn't want to step forward to deal with it, but when he glanced at it, he saw a familiar figure among the guests. Liang Yifei's eyes were filled with surprise and he walked towards the person quickly.

Seeing his figure, the lively conversation in the waterside pavilion paused for a moment. Mrs. Liang gently touched Mrs. Zheng's arm and said with a smile: "Sanlang is back from duty."

Mrs. Zheng looked closely and saw Liang Yifei's extraordinary demeanor, and she curled her lips with satisfaction.Beside her, Madam Zheng's neck turned red with embarrassment when she saw Liang Yifei clearly.

Amid the eager expectations of several people, Liang Yifei only bowed his hand towards them from a distance and walked straight towards the acquaintance on the other side of the waterside pavilion without anyone approaching.

"Brother Zheng is polite!"

Hearing the greetings from the people behind him, Zheng Shiyan turned around, smiled slightly and saluted, "I'm really looking forward to your return, Third Brother Liang."

The gentleman in front of him behaved grandly and elegantly, no different from when he left Lin'an half a year ago.

Their eyes met, and when they met the warm smile on Zheng Shiyan's face, Liang Yifei suddenly realized that things were different, and the anger and pain that had just subsided in his eyes finally couldn't help but reappear a little.

If nothing else, it was because of Zheng Shiyan's mediation that he and Shen Yanhan met and got married.

Speaking of how he and Shen Yanhan met, it was another thing that could only be called fate.

That day, he had just come out from Tingfeng Tea House after drinking tea, and when he passed the powder shop next door, he heard a commotion inside.He stopped and took a look and saw Zheng Shiyan fighting with another person. He knew who Zheng Shiyan was. He heard something about a drunkard teasing a woman, so he stepped forward to help him.

After subduing the drunken villain and rescuing the young lady who was being molested, he said goodbye to Zheng Shiyan and was about to leave when a sweet oriole-like praise came from the side: "Brother Zheng, this one is with you." Why don’t you introduce us to the ordinary heroes who are incompetent?”

He looked intently, and what he met was a pair of eyes that showed no timidity, even full of excitement.

The 13-year-old Shen Yanhan, who was still childish, looked straight at him with her dark and bright eyes. Seeing him turning back to look at her, she raised her eyebrows slightly and smiled brightly at him, revealing a row of snow-white teeth, generous and bright. It's hard not to feel good about it.

In the blink of an eye, the little girl of the Shen family grew up and got married to him, but this meeting came to nothing again.

What a twist of fate.

Liang Yifei frowned.

Seeing him like this, Zheng Shiyan's smile faltered slightly.

After he returned to Lin'an Mansion, he heard from his mother that his cousin was discussing marriage with the husband of the Liang family. This Liang family was not another family, and the person he was talking about was Liang Yifei.

Regarding the matter between Liang Yifei and Shen Yanhan, he had been entrusted by Liang Yifei and specially invited the teacher to discuss with Shen Siye. He thought that it was a great thing to have facilitated a marriage, but after asking, he found out that the former Liang family A few days ago, I took the initiative to withdraw from this marriage.

In front of several gentlemen around him, Zheng Shiyan reached out and patted Liang Yifei's shoulder, and said warmly: "I just came back from abroad and I'm so dusty. Why don't I go change my clothes and come out to have a few drinks with my brother?"

This was an opportunity for him to adjust his mood. Liang Yifei nodded, "Brother Zheng, please wait until you and I are drunk."

At the banquet in the evening, Liang Yifei took etiquette into consideration and went to greet the guests of the Zheng family one by one under the introduction of Zheng Shiyan.

Unlike the flamboyant Liang Yifei, Zheng Yuting's delicate little face turned red as Liang Yifei looked at her intently.

She stood up, and Yingying gave Liang Yifei a gift in return: "Third cousin."

The Zheng family is a serious descendant of the royal family. The grandfathers of Zheng Shiyan and Zheng Yuting are the sons of the eldest princess Jiahui of the royal family. However, their Liang family only had a distant relative who married a county prince as a stepmother, so they reluctantly married her. Just a little royal kiss.

It can be said that he and Zheng Yuting were barely involved in the relationship between cousins ​​after going through eight twists and turns.

He also didn't understand how the Zheng family, a descendant of the royal family and of noble birth, could look down on marrying someone like him.

Liang Yifei nodded indifferently, turned around and invited Zheng Shiyan to have a drink in the flower hall.

After a few glasses of wine, Liang Yifei choked up and said, "Brother Zheng, Ayan and I..."

Zheng Shiyan understood his unfinished meaning in an instant, and said consolingly: "Look forward to everything. If some things should pass, let them pass."

Liang Yifei's heart dropped.

Could it be that Zheng Shiyan was no longer willing to help him?
Liang Yifei gritted his teeth, stood up from the table, and knelt down directly in front of Zheng Shiyan, "Brother Zheng, help me one more time." Seeing this scene, it was impossible for Zheng Shiyan not to be shocked.

Liang Yifei was three years younger than him, and he had watched him grow up. He could clearly see how arrogant and proud this young man had been since he was a child.It was okay to beg him once for Shen Yanhan's sake, but now, after breaking off the engagement, she is still unable to let go, begging him like a life-saving straw.

Presumably, he has decided that it must be her.

Zheng Shiyan felt some sympathy for others in his heart, and his already gentle heart softened a bit.

"Third Brother Liang, please get up and speak first." Zheng Shiyan stretched out his hand to hold Liang Yifei's arm, "Third Brother Liang, how do you think you can help me? I will do my best for my brother."

After he agreed, Liang Yifei immediately stood up and said excitedly with bright eyes: "Brother Zheng just needs to help me persuade A Yan and stop messing around with unreasonable people!"

Zheng Shiyan frowned deeply, looking puzzled, "Are you fooling around? With whom? What kind of nonsense are you doing?"

Liang Yifei then told Shen Yanhan that he was living in Zhuangzi and was going to marry an unknown person behind Shen Gu's words.

The more Zheng Shiyan listened, the tighter his brows furrowed.

Ever since he met that little girl in the Imperial College, he had watched that little girl grow up.He has always been deeply aware of the boldness of his temper and the recklessness of his actions.

He said she could suddenly marry someone who didn't know the details, and he believed she could do it.

But... are you carrying a heavy speech?

That was the father she had always respected. Although he was a bit stubborn, Shen Yanhan should have many ways to make him surrender to her. There was really no need to settle the marriage without the orders of her parents.

After all, the world is like this nowadays. If men and women don't pay enough attention to each other, there will be a lot of rumors.

Looking at Liang Yifei's dark eyes full of expectation and hope, Zheng Shiyan finally nodded, "I'll give it a try."

When Zheng Shiyan went to Qiuwang Garden, he was rejected.

The situation is high winds and evenings, hills and yellow leaves flying.

Unknowingly, Qin Yuehuai had been recuperating in Nanping Mountain for more than a month.

Today is the Double Ninth Festival, the ninth day of September. Early in the morning, Shen Yanhan and Hibiscus were actively preparing for the festival.

Qin Yuehuai watched the two of them busy with cold eyes, thinking about the new news he got from Uncle Deyuan.

As expected, Liu Yu took action. Not long after the last letter was sent, he raised his troops and went south.

But fortunately, several generals are brave. General Han Shizhong just defeated Liu Yu's "Da Qi" troops recognized by the Jin Kingdom in Suqian at the end of last month. General Yue also recaptured Changshui County and Lushi County.

Liu Yu also withdrew his troops.

It's a great trend.

Now, according to Uncle Deyuan's deployment, General Han Shizhong is occupying Chuzhou in order to capture Huaiyang; General Zhang Jun is also stationed in Xutei from Jiankang, and Yang Yizhong is leading elite troops to assist his rear wing; General Yue Fei is stationed in Xiangyang to gain a glimpse of the Central Plains .All the generals were stationed on the strategic roads, so they were well prepared.

But the only one he felt worried about was Liu Guang, who was in charge of Huaixi's defense.Now he is stationed in Luzhou, which is the main road to Huaixi. If there is a slight mistake, the impact will be huge...

Shen Yanhan interrupted his thoughts with an urging——

"Okay! Let's go!"

Qin Yuehuai raised her eyes and saw that Shen Yanhan was holding a bamboo basket on her wrist, which was full of things. Yang Dong and Mu Jin behind her also looked like they were getting ready to go out for the festival. She couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Where are you going?"

Shen Yanhan pulled his arm and stood up, "You'll know when you get there!"

 guess where they go
