The military commander nodded solemnly.

"Yes, General, that Wu Xingzhou is definitely not love-struck."

"I know this is very rare in Yunjing, practically one of a kind for Scorpion Dad, but... he's really not a love-struck fool!"

After a pause, Jun Cheng emphasized, "At the very least, unlike our Lord He Jin, the garrison commander of Luoyan Ferry, Lord He Jin has always wanted to have a sweet romance. He wants to lead us to achieve great things, and also so that he can have more resources to have a better romance."

"However, he was slow to realize that the relationship he was looking for was right beside him."

"But this Wu Xingzhou is definitely different."

"He doesn't even want to be in a relationship!"

Wang Ming frowned deeply and asked, "So, he's still all alone?"

"But being alone is the hardest thing to say."

"Once his destined noblewoman appears, who knows what kind of trouble will arise."

"No!" Jun Cheng said, "General, you misunderstand. That Wu Xingzhou already has a wife, and he and his wife have a very harmonious relationship. He treats his wife extremely well, you could say he treats her with all his heart."

"It is said that his relationship with his wife was also praised by people in the Yun Jing court."

Wang Ming was confused.

He treats his wife extremely well?

How could it be praised by the Yunjing court?

Not love-struck?

Then, Wang Ming looked at Jun Cheng in the next second.

Is this military commander out of his mind?

Or maybe they're from the Tongxin Alliance?

The military advisor reacted quickly, immediately grasping the meaning in Wang Ming's eyes, and hurriedly said, "General Wang Ming, please don't misunderstand."

"I'm perfectly normal."

"We, the lower class, are only persecuted by their messy love affairs in Yunjing. It's hard for us to catch their eye."

"The reason I say this is because..."

"Wu Xingzhou's deep and sincere love for his wife was extremely restrained and calm."

"that is……"

"Under the Duke's rule, it's just normal pampering of his wife."

Jun Cheng knew that saying this would hardly dispel Wang Ming's doubts, so he quickly added, "I've heard some stories about Wu Xingzhou. General, you'll understand as soon as you hear them."

"The first thing is about the system in Yunjing."

"Yunjing allows the wives of the garrison commanders to stay in the military camp, and even encourages this behavior. Even we ordinary soldiers have to suffer from these love affairs, which is quite annoying."

"Wu Xingzhou, as the garrison commander of Pinglingji, could naturally have openly and legitimately brought the lady here, but Wu Xingzhou refused."

"And the refusal was quite decisive!"

"His wife was not allowed to come to the military camp at all."

"This matter caused quite a stir. Even with the imperial envoy sent by Yun Jingdu, Wu Xingzhou ultimately only built a courtyard three miles away from the military camp to keep his mistress hidden away."

He travels to and from the destination on horseback every day.

"Many times, I have to go back several times a day."

"But... his wife was never allowed to live in the military camp."

"and……"

"His wife, for some unknown reason, went to the military camp to look for him once, but Wu Xingzhou, upon discovering this, immediately ordered her to be driven out."

"And he declared: His wife is forbidden to come again!"

At this point, Jun Cheng sighed, "I heard that Wu Xingzhou went through a lot of trouble after returning home to stop his wife from being angry about these things."

"But Wu Xingzhou steadfastly forbade his wife from disrupting the morale of the troops!"

Wang Ming involuntarily recalled Wang Haichao, the garrison commander of Qingfeng Post Station. If Wang Haichao had even a fraction of Wu Xingzhou's skill, he wouldn't have driven the wounded soldiers out, and he and his wife's affection would have led to the loss of Qingfeng Post Station.

He instantly became interested in Wu Xingzhou.

He asked, "Is there anything else?"

"There is another matter that is simply outrageous in Yunjing. It is precisely because of this matter that Wu Xingzhou has been unable to rise in rank. Otherwise, with his strength, he would probably have entered Yunjing City long ago."

The military officer said, "Once, his wife was seriously ill, and the messenger said that his wife was on the verge of death and told him to go back immediately."

Before the military commander could finish speaking, Wang Ming looked astonished.

I just felt like this was all too familiar.

I couldn't help but ask, "And then?"

"So, how did Wu Xingzhou do it?"

The military commander said, "Wu Xingzhou was suppressing bandits at the time. Upon hearing the news, he immediately said that the military situation was urgent and could not be delayed, and led his soldiers to suppress the bandits."

"Only after the bandits were wiped out did Wu Xingzhou ride back at full speed, without rest or sleep."

Fortunately, his wife recovered after being treated by the doctor. However, because of this incident, his wife almost divorced him.

"He must have used some means to get his wife's forgiveness."

"But afterwards, they still didn't change their ways."

"Military considerations remain paramount!"

Wang Ming sat back down, though his body felt a little sore.

Based on the military commander's description, if everything is true, then Wu Xingzhou is indeed not a love-struck fool.

In fact, not only is she not love-struck, but she is also...

Exemplary!

It should be noted that after the establishment of the Demon Suppression Division, due to the overwhelming number of bewitching demons in the world, it had to take drastic measures, which also left many people unsure of how to handle their marital relationships.

Therefore, when Pei Jingzhi was in the Demon Suppression Division, he came up with many ideas, one of which was to set an example.

Wu Xingzhou's behavior... is truly exemplary!

Loving your wife? No problem!

As long as you can distinguish between important and trivial matters!

At home, she knows when to back down and when to coax, but when it comes to important matters, she is absolutely unambiguous.

I will never let personal feelings interfere with important matters!

"So it seems that Wu Xingzhou really isn't love-struck!"

"Moreover, judging from the military commander's words, his wife seems to be quite assertive. To be able to hold firm to important matters under such circumstances... this person..."

"This is truly one of a kind!"

Wang Ming made this judgment in his mind, but then his face turned bitter. He was used to winning battles with an easy advantage, and the sudden appearance of such a strong and unremarkable opponent was a bit of a psychological letdown for him.

He needs to take it slow!

"It seems we need to carefully plan this operation against Pinglingji."

As Wang Ming was thinking this, suddenly, his personal guards rushed in from outside the door.

"Report!"

"General!"

"Someone has come to surrender!"

"He said he was the garrison commander of Pinglingji, and his name was Wu Xingzhou!"

Wang Ming stood up again with a "whoosh".

"What did you say?" she exclaimed in astonishment.

Who surrendered?

"What's your name?"

The guard reported, "General, the man who surrendered claims to be the garrison commander of Pinglingji, and he says his name is Wu Xingzhou!"

Wang Ming: "???"
