MTL - After Being Forced to Marry the Evil Star General-Chapter 48

In Yan Mingting's memory, birthdays were rarely celebrated, and he was at the border all year round, so he didn't have the heart to hold a birthday party. What's more, since his relatives passed away one after another, he never looked forward to the so-called birthday. With no relatives, the meaning of birthday is gone. On the contrary, it reminds him that he is the "evil star" in the population of the world, leaving him alone to live alone.

But this year is different.

There is one more person beside him, who is a three-media, six-hired and eight-carrier person. In name, they are one, and they are the only closest people he has now.

He also couldn't tell when he had different thoughts towards Zhao Yelan.

At first, he just noticed that Zhao Yelan was different from the rumors in the market, but he didn't relax easily, observing and getting along with him, he gradually became aware of the fun.

The person who keeps emphasizing how cold-blooded and ruthless he is on the surface, but in fact, when he gets angry, he just uses the chickens in the backyard to calm his anger. There was also the rabbit, who didn't seem to be paying much attention, but immediately went to check its situation after seeing the braised rabbit head.

Let's say he is kind, but if he is really ruthless, he will be like Yama. It has to be said that Yan Mingting was still deeply impressed by the scene where he personally killed that strange man in the brothel.

Simple good and evil do not seem to define Zhao Yelan easily.

Probably Yan Mingting also has rebellious bones in his bones. Once he finds out that Zhao Yelan has an evil side, he will not believe what the world says is cruel nature. , he felt even more distressed about the other party.

No matter how miserable Yan Mingting was, at least his father led him for more than ten years before he passed away. However, Zhao Yelan grew up alone in the capital surrounded by wolves with no relatives since he was a child.

The world is dangerous, no one treats Zhao Yelan well, so why should he keep his truth, kindness and beauty?

In the early morning, Yan Mingting was going to court as usual, but to his surprise, Zhao Yelan also got up, and when he was about to go out, he personally delivered it to the gate.

Yan Mingting suspected that he hadn't woken up.

Otherwise, how could Zhao Yelan be so sensible!

He had hinted and made it clear to Zhao Yelan more than once that he hoped that he could follow the example of Kan Chuan's wife and give him a gift when he went out to court.

But he also knew that according to Zhao Yelan's temperament, it was absolutely impossible to agree to this request.

Now that he did it obediently, Yan Mingting was not used to it, and felt flustered for no reason.

In the past two days, Zhao Yelan's kindness to him seemed a bit too much, and then he thought, maybe it's because of his birthday?

He turned his head, and it was the darkest moment before dawn. There was only a waning moon hanging in the sky, and the faint moonlight fell on the man. Zhao Yelan stood upright at the door and watched him. He felt warm and waved his hand. Urging: "Go back, go back to sleep! I'll be back soon!"

Zhao Yelan nodded slightly, not knowing if he could see it, then turned around and went back to the study with the candle in his hand, where he quietly studied ink and laid paper.

Yan Mingting said that he would come back soon, but he was still caught up in the affairs of the court. First, he discussed with everyone the matter of suppressing the bandits, which extended the time of his visit to the court, but was stopped by many people to congratulate him on his happy birthday and scrambled for him. He said that he had prepared a congratulatory gift, so he waited to come to the door for a drink.

How can this work!

Are you familiar with me?

Yan Mingting didn't want to make false claims with them on a good day, so he canceled all the entertainments, and threatened not to hold banquets, accept gifts, and even less accept guests.

Everyone was annoyed, but Kan Chuan followed his footsteps without a trace, and handed over a land deed to him.

"How can this be done!" Yan Mingting repeatedly refused. Although he knew that Kan Chuan was from Zhao Yelan, he couldn't accept such an expensive gift. "Hurry up and take it back, or I'll beat you up."

"The general misunderstood, this is not for you." Kan Chuan glanced around and saw no one around, then whispered, "This is 'he' accidentally dropped in my child's gift, please Give it back to him."

How could Zhao Yelan be so obsessed with money that he left such an important thing behind? It must have been given to Kan Chuan on purpose, but Kan Chuan couldn't take it.

"I see." Yan Mingting frowned, and the suspicion in his heart became heavier. After a while, he smiled and patted Kan Chuan on the shoulder, and said loudly, "All right, since what you sent is calligraphy and painting , I will make an exception to accept it, and I will not spend any more money in the future!"

Although there was no one around, Kan Chuan was still amused by his cautiousness, and echoed, "Okay, it's time for the general to give my child a full moon gift someday."

"It's easy to say, but there is one thing that I want to ask you for advice..."

The breakfast in the General's Mansion was almost getting cold, so Yan Mingting came late.

When Xiao Gao saw that he was back, he immediately shouted loudly: "My lord, the general is back! Dinner is ready!"

Yan Mingting smiled, sat down first, and looked down at the dishes on the table. There was a bowl of longevity noodles with two eggs in it, and the other dishes were filled with side dishes.

"General, eat this bowl of longevity noodles soon." Butler Tan said with a smile.

"Zhao Yelan..." Yan Mingting's voice stopped, because he saw Zhao Yelan coming out of the gatehouse, wearing ocher-colored clothes, the color was deep and gorgeous, the sleeves and hem of the sleeves were embroidered with flowing clouds. The patterns are also crocheted with intersecting gold and silver threads, so complicated that he can't understand what is embroidered, but he finds it so pleasing to the eye that people can't take their eyes off it.

Yan Mingting suddenly understood why Zhao Yelan loved buying clothes so much.

People depend on clothes, and clothes also depend on people.

Only by complementing each other can this effect be achieved.

purchase! No matter how expensive you have to buy it! Buy them all! Only good-looking clothes are worthy of his people!

Not to mention Yan Mingting, the servants have been stupefied for a long time, and they have not been relieved all morning. They only think that they are really immortals, and they came here specially to open their eyes.

Zhao Yelan was used to this kind of gaze, and he knew whether it was good or not. It's just that when he was dressing today, he couldn't find anything he liked after choosing and choosing. After all, he seldom had the same clothes, and today might be the only time he celebrated Yan Mingting's birthday with Yan Mingting, and the colors quite matched the atmosphere.

"My lord looks so good today!" Xiao Gao praised him very much, "I bought this dress last year, and I have never worn it!"

Just as Zhao Yelan was about to sit down, he was a little embarrassed when he heard the words, as if he had specially chosen the clothes for the day he said.

Well, it's not an exaggeration to say it's special, but it's not the only reason. This suit is very complicated to wear, and it's too eye-catching, so it shouldn't be taken away. Since he spent a lot of money to buy it, he must wear it once.

After he convinced himself, he looked at Yan Mingting pretending to be natural: "I wear whatever I want."

"Yeah, I know." Yan Mingting said seriously, "Even if you dress casually, it will make people feel ashamed."

Zhao Yelan touched his nose embarrassingly: "Let's eat the noodles first, it's going to be lumpy."

"Okay." Yan Mingting looked at him while eating the noodles. At first, he just glanced secretly, but later his eyes became more and more wanton, and finally he even stared at him while drinking the soup.

"..." Zhao Yelan had a hard time ignoring his gaze. Before he finished eating the noodles, he put down his chopsticks stiffly, took a deep breath, and kept smiling, "What are you looking at?"

"I always feel that there is a fly in the ointment." Yan Mingting commented very seriously.

Zhao Yelan's face changed slightly immediately: "Where is the deficiency?"

"Come with me." Yan Mingting put down the bowl, grabbed his sleeves and walked into the bedroom.

Yan Mingting's steps were a bit big, Zhao Yelan needed to speed up to keep up, the flap of his clothes was really pretty.

Yan Mingting paused for a moment, then led him from one end of the corridor to the other, and then back again.

"Yan Mingting, are you sick?" Zhao Yelan was so tormented by him, it was rare for him to make up his mind to spend his birthday with him today, and he would never get angry, but this guy tried repeatedly on the edge of his patience.

Yan Mingting laughed, coaxed him a few words, took him back to the room, and then searched in the drawer. After a while, he finally found the Liuyun jade hairpin, inserted it into his hair, and said with satisfaction: "That's right. Not bad, really nice."

Zhao Yelan subconsciously glanced at the bronze mirror. He didn't think it was very beautiful, but it was a bit cumbersome. It was not as good-looking as the gold-plated jade crown he specially chose today.

But Yan Mingting didn't allow him to pick it, so he gave up.

Yan Mingting started to stare at him unscrupulously again.

Zhao Yelan walked a few steps in the room, unable to divert his attention, and was about to poke his eyes blind when he heard footsteps.

"General, I heard that today is your birthday!"

Zuo Ran slept from noon to midnight yesterday, got up and went to the kitchen to get something to eat, and fell asleep again until now. When he got up together, he saw the servants happily discussing their birthdays. Only then did he know what day it was, and hurried to congratulate him, but Seeing that there was another person in the room, he exclaimed and covered his eyes, "Did I come too late?"

Yan Mingting: What a coincidence!

"Nothing." Zhao Yelan said, "Come in and talk."

Only then did Zuo Ran walk in, and wondered again: "My lord, aren't you going to the Imperial Academy today? At this time yesterday, you had already set off."

Yes!

Yan Mingting was too happy to care about this matter at all, and said: "Hurry up and change your official uniform, I'll send you there, there's still time."

"No, I'm not on duty today."

No wonder, he and Ruan Xian switched dates, but he couldn't say it at this time, otherwise Yan Mingting's tail would be up to the sky.

"Great." Yan Mingting chuckled, then looked at Zuo Ran, "What do you want from us?"

Zuo Ran immediately congratulated him on his happy birthday, and took out some small pieces of silver from his purse: "I don't know what you like, General, so these are my congratulatory gifts. I didn't expect to ask you to help me on this day. At least it will take a month, my life is worthless, but I will never forget this great favor!"

As she said that, she knelt down with a plop, and saluted Yan Mingting, her head knocked to the ground, almost breaking her skin.

"Okay, get up, ask Ping Lu to see it, and think I'm bullying you." Yan Mingting helped her up, "You Ping Lu is my friend, and you should help a friend, isn't that right?"

"Friend?" Zuo Ran panicked, "How can I be worthy of being friends with the general!"

She came from a low family background and didn't know many big characters, how dare she be friends with General Yan!

"There's nothing unworthy of you. You value love and righteousness, and you went to the battlefield with us in obscurity. Your courage is enough to be my friend. I'm just reincarnated better than you, but I still need it when I die. Someone helped me, and you Heping Green happened to help me solve a big problem, this is the fate of friends." Yan Mingting said.

Zuo Ran's eyes turned red, and he was teased by Yan Mingting: "Zuo Ran, why didn't I realize that you were still a crying bag before? Where did all your ruthlessness go?"

Zuo Ran wiped away his tears and cheered up again: "General, don't worry, after I rescue Ping Lu, I will go to the border, and I will officially enlist in the army and join the Yuehong team!"

Originally there were no female generals in the army, but Yan Mingting appreciated Zhong Yuehong, and Beijing was too busy trying to win the heir apparent to care about frontier affairs. He set a precedent by promoting a female lieutenant general, which caused a lot of controversy at first, but fortunately Zhong Yuehong persuaded everyone with his strength.

Afterwards, occasionally one or two women wanted to join, and they were all arranged under Zhong Yuehong's command.

"Okay, your women's army is growing stronger and stronger." Yan Mingting was very pleased.

Zuo Ran smiled, and she also had an idea in her heart. She was trying to escape before, and she didn't want the prefect to find out where she and Yin Pinglu were. But now, she realizes the importance of status, she hates her own incompetence, she also wants to make contributions like Zhong Yuehong, let everyone know how powerful she is, and no one dares to **** anyone away from her!

After a while, He Cuizhang also came, bringing a few jars of good wine, and said that he would drink until he was not drunk, but Zhao Yelan gave him a stare, and then changed his words: "This good wine should be stored in the cellar first, and it will be released after the New Year." drink!"

He Cuizhang secretly patted his chest, mother, it's no wonder the general is scared, who isn't scared when he sees this look?

After lunch, everyone began to give gifts. He Cuizhang gave a big sword, which he and several other lieutenants pooled together to give, including Zhong Yuehong.

Butler Tan gave a peace talisman, and Xiao Gao also gave a gift—ten bunches of candied haws. Originally, he bought twenty skewers, but he couldn't hold back last night and ate ten skewers.

The Li family did not come, but the ceremony also arrived. Li Jinyu sent a set of tactics, and Li Yucheng sent a few gold ingots.

Yan Mingting suddenly felt that maybe this Li Yucheng and Zhao Yelan could become confidantes, look at this vulgar money fan!

Wait... Would Zhao Yelan really give him money in a simple and rude way? He couldn't help but think of last night's account book, a lot of money... Will he accept it or not?

He was shamefully moved, I'm sorry, it turns out that he is also very vulgar, he really deserves to be a family!
