My younger sister insisted on marrying me and made me the Marquis' wife.

Chapter 96: Try twisting another melon

Admiral Jin frowned and suddenly said, "General, I have to inform my colleagues..."

Lord Gu frowned and said, "No need. His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi and the Seventh Princess just stopped by to visit. They left after a few words. Let's just do as usual."

Admiral Jin immediately smiled and said, "Then I will go and inform them. The general has agreed."

Gu Jinghui nodded.

Brigadier General Jin then retreated and asked a soldier to pour tea for the two distinguished guests in the general's tent.

The soldier asked, "Who is the distinguished guest?"

Admiral Jin said, "It's His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi and the Seventh Princess who are here. The Seventh Princess was saved by our general when she was young, and she has been thinking about her ever since she grew up. She wanted to thank the general in person, so she asked His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi to bring her here."

The soldier said, "Is the princess the elegant scholar? From a distance, he doesn't look like a man. It turns out she is a woman dressed as a man. She is indeed a noble and beautiful woman."

Admiral Jin sneered: "How can he be more beautiful than our general?"

He originally wanted to say that she was not as beautiful as the general's wife, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

His wife came back and said that the Marquis was incredibly handsome after shaving his beard, and that if she had known that the Marquis was so good-looking, she would never have married him, and that she would find a way to marry the Marquis as a concubine. She also said that the Marquis's wife was young and beautiful, and that she and the Marquis looked a perfect match, and that Lady Zhao was not even worthy of carrying his shoes.

Admiral Jin thought, that would be so beautiful, women just love to exaggerate.

After seeing Gu Jinghui shaving off his full beard, Admiral Jin was convinced.

Without the beard covering his face, how could this man be able to suppress these rough men?

His wife felt that a woman who could match the Marquis must be as beautiful as a fairy.

After Brigadier General Jin shouted this, everyone in the military camp soon knew about it.

He was also trying to prevent misinformation from happening so as not to cause trouble for the general.

Now is not the time when they are in the northern frontier. There are not only their people in the camp, but also many pairs of eyes watching them.

The soldier brought in tea, and after a cup of tea, Gu Jinghui escorted the King of Qi and the Seventh Princess out of the camp.

Admiral Jin came closer and asked, "Madam, if you have anything to say, please tell the King of Qi."

Gu Jinghui said angrily: "He is just meddling in other people's business. I have already told him off. He won't dare to do it again."

Admiral Jin sensed that the two were close, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Did the general say he wouldn't be a problem?"

Gu Jinghui said, “It’s okay. Before I went to Saibei, I was a companion to the emperor in the palace. The older princes and I grew up together, and everyone knows it. He just heard some gossip from others and misunderstood Madam, so he intervened to defend me. I’ve already told him that he will not come to this important military camp again.”

Admiral Jin heaved a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. The general is only focused on building his career, so he doesn't have time for romantic relationships."

Lord Gu: "..."

He has been obsessed with romance lately.

Outside the camp, the two people who were escorted out of the tent by Gu Jinghui looked a little unhappy.

Princess Fuyun pouted and complained: "Why is Lord Gu so unkind?"

It was dinner time and he didn't even leave us for lunch.

The King of Qi chuckled and said, "He is doing very well this way." Princess Fuyun opened her eyes wide and asked, "Why?"

The King of Qi put his hands behind his back and sighed, "My third brother is an upright man, but I am not. He wants to avoid me, and I should know better, but I am unwilling to do so."

This statement doesn't say everything, but it says everything.

Princess Fuyun sighed and said nothing.

After getting on the carriage, Princess Fuyun asked again: "Do you really want to help his adopted son enter the Imperial Academy?"

The King of Qi stretched out his hand and said, "I can only try."

Princess Fuyun said unhappily, "He values ​​a little adopted son so much. It is his duty to save him. No wonder some people outside gossip that his child is his. Isn't his wife the chief priest of the Imperial College? Why doesn't he ask his wife for help?"

King Qi said: "How could it be his child? If he could have such a wisdom, why would he have been so..."

Princess Fuyun asked curiously, "Why?"

The King of Qi's face turned cold, and he said, "Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about. You should also stop and stop making trouble. Third brother loves that new wife. He has many people around him. You have seen his temper. He is cold and unkind, like a piece of wood. He only has a good appearance. Not everyone can bear it."

Princess Fuyun said: "I..."

The King of Qi said, "Don't tell lies. I watched you grow up, and I don't know your little tricks. Stop it. How can a royal consort be in charge of military power? Just for this reason, there is no chance for him to be with you."

Princess Fuyun's face was as gloomy as water, and she said unwillingly: "If I marry him, won't you have a helping hand? Are you really willing to let that sickly guy suppress us? Doesn't my brother always say that everything depends on human efforts?"

The King of Qi said nothing.

After a long while, he said, "Do you think everyone else is stupid? He has been back in the capital for more than half a year. Has he ever contacted me? If I hadn't sent people to watch him, I wouldn't have met him. He can talk to me only for his new wife. Between him and me... that's it. You don't understand. In order to defend Saibei, the Gu family sacrificed several lives. When he went to Saibei, he lost contact with everyone in the capital. After he came back, he never contacted anyone. I thought he would never come back."

How could a person who does things with the intention of dying easily let himself be involved in these things?

He had already seen through Gu Jinghui's attitude.

Princess Fuyun looked sour and said, "Is that woman so good? Didn't he say before that the widow surnamed Zhao would be taken into his palace as a concubine? It seems that he falls in love with every woman he meets."

"You've heard that he's preparing a dowry for the widow. If someone wants to get married, he'll prepare a generous dowry. It's only been a few days, but it's clear that the Qin family girl is very much in his heart. The thousand-year-old iron tree has blossomed, and no one else has a chance. You and I are in this situation now. If he marries you, I'll immediately become a thorn in his side. Why bother?"

Princess Fuyun used her long, pointed nails to dig into the citron on the table. After a long while, she lowered her eyebrows and said, "I understand."

Seeing her like this, the King of Qi comforted her and said, "If my brother can get what he wants one day, he will definitely make my Fuyun live a happy life. But for now, you should put your mind aside. A forced melon is not sweet. Why don't you try twisting another melon?"

Princess Fuyun hummed and said, "Don't worry, brother. I won't let my love delay things."

……

Gu Jinghui had a banquet with the lieutenant generals at noon, and he drank a few more glasses because he was so happy.

When they talked about their women, they were all full of passion, saying, "You must not spoil your wife. You must set rules right after you get married, otherwise she will definitely climb over your head in the future."

Especially Lieutenant General Jin, who said, "My wife is the most virtuous. I wish I could..."

Lord Gu, who usually remained silent at such times, interrupted and said, "My wife is really... clingy."
