The head of the Mu family

Chapter 102 Joy Turns to Sorrow: Heartbreak

Next, the army will rest and recuperate. After the great battle, the wounded will need to recover.

Although Yu Ri Pass is not as difficult as Xiagu Pass, Shu Wu still managed to get there.

That's a tough nut to crack; driving them out of Yu Ri Guan will require careful planning.

After spring arrived and flowers bloomed, the wounded soldiers had mostly recovered.

Those six seriously injured heroes were able to walk with assistance.

After the imperial army's provisions arrived, they prepared to launch a probing attack.

Fearing their home would be raided, the troops inside the pass were properly arranged, and the army broke camp and headed towards Yu Ri Pass.

Seriously wounded soldiers were constantly sent to the valley pass to recuperate, while recovered soldiers continued to go to the front lines.

Finally, in the spring of the following year, they recaptured Yu Riguan.

The marshal signed ceasefire agreements with both the Hu people and the Tartars.

Two more military doctors were needed to go to Yu Riguan, and nineteen-year-old Mu Huaisheng excitedly asked Lan Yaoshen to transfer them.

Lan Yaoshen knew that Li Rongchuan was there, so he naturally agreed.

Mu Huaisheng then went to Yu Riguan. He has been there for half a month and is so busy that he can't even lift his head.

I heard that after three months of rest, the marshal will return to the capital, leaving the generals here to defend and garrison the area.

Li Rongchuan built the city within the city walls, while Mu Huaisheng was in the wounded soldiers' camp.

Only after the city is repaired will there be room to move the large army in.

A month later, I finally had some free time.

Just as they stepped out of the tent, they encountered the marshal leading a group of people to visit the wounded.

I met Li Rongchuan among the soldiers.

For the first time, Mu Huaisheng realized what it meant for someone's eyes to melt their heart.

Mu Huaisheng felt like he was about to melt.

A few days later, Li Rongchuan came to the wounded soldiers' camp again and gave Mu Huaisheng a meaningful look.

He found an excuse, exchanged a few pleasantries with the people next to him, and then went out.

After finishing his work, Mu Huaisheng also went out.

Upon exiting the tent, they indeed saw Li Rongchuan standing not far away, looking elegant and imposing.

Seeing her come out, he began to slowly walk forward.

Mu Huaisheng followed the path he had taken.

If you look closely, the two people standing in front of each other are grinning from ear to ear.

Li Rongchuan walked to what was probably a general's single tent and told the two guards to go and rest first.

Mu Huaisheng was a little shy:

What is Rongchuan trying to do?

Are you going to do something impolite again?

Great! I'll take this opportunity to admire those eight-pack abs again!

Li Rongchuan held up the tent flap, waiting for Mu Huaisheng. Mu Huaisheng smiled sweetly and went into the tent.

Once inside, Li Rongchuan gently took Mu Huaisheng's hand.

Huai Sheng rushed into Li Rongchuan's arms and hugged him tightly.

Mu Huaisheng could not suppress his longing:

Those calloused hands and those eight-pack abs... they give me such a sense of security!

"Rongchuan, are you injured? You can't hide it from me!"

Mu Huaisheng asked shyly and tenderly.

No~ It's fine~

But, I have something to tell you~

Mu Huaisheng was truly shy, and said coquettishly:

"Go ahead, I'm listening!"

"I asked my sister-in-law to choose an auspicious date."

Thinking that they would get married at the end of next month and then guard Yu Ri Guan.

Don't worry, you will receive all the proper etiquette and rituals.

Everything is prepared at home, and they're already on their way here!

"I'll do whatever you say~"

Mu Huaisheng was overwhelmed by happiness.

A sudden thought struck me:

No! Wait a minute.

I think I just heard a word that doesn't sound right.

I don't know, did I hear that right?

It's better to ask clearly!

"Rongchuan~ Didn't you just say that you have the Three Letters and Six Rites?"

Or did I mishear?

Who else will marry along with us?

Mu Huaisheng is still working on his own strategy:

Did romantic group military marriages also exist in ancient times?

I'm so lucky!

I can't wait!

"There's no one else, just me, you, and Aran~"

"Aran, who is Aran?"

Mu Huaisheng was stunned for a moment, broke free from Li Rongchuan's embrace, and was a little slow to react.

"It's the female general, Yan Ran~"

She and I had already developed a mutual respect for each other on the battlefield.

Originally, I only planned to grow old with her in this life.

Who would have thought that I would meet you again later...

After much deliberation, I wrote to Aran and told her everything about us.

Aran replied, saying that a woman like you deserves to be cherished!

Later, I stopped controlling my heart and let myself fall in love with you.

Don't worry, you're all married into the same family, so there's no distinction between elders and juniors.

Mu Huaisheng's mind was a bit confused, and he couldn't think straight:

When was this turning point?

Yet, it seems there wasn't such a sudden turning point.

"General Yan, do you really agree?"

Although we've only met a few times, General Yan is such a heroic and extraordinary woman...

"Don't worry, I agree."

Miss Huai Sheng...

Yan Ran stepped out from behind the map and continued:

"I knew you a long time ago, Yan Sen, that kid's brain is mush."

Later, when you visited the wounded, you were always extremely busy.

That's so rare!

He'll regret missing out on a wonderful girl like you for the rest of his life!

Mu Huaisheng was filled with suspicion and couldn't utter a single word; his heart suddenly felt cold.

"Oh~ Yan Sen is my younger brother!"

That unlucky brat~

Huai Sheng thumped his head:

You're so dense, hurry up and share this!

Find out what's going on quickly.

If you still can't figure it out, you're about to burst into tears!

Look! For some reason, the tears just won't stop; they're already flowing.

Mu Huaisheng's tears flowed down his cheeks involuntarily.

She pulled her other hand away as if she had been electrocuted, while it was still with Li Rongchuan.

"General Yan..."

So, what kind of person am I?

Li Rongchuan!

You and the general made a promise long ago: to be together for life!

It's just that I'm an old acquaintance, and I'm being disliked again.

So I risked my own happiness to save my reputation from the world's wrath?

I am very grateful to you!

However, General Yan is a hero in my heart, and you are all people I admire.

If I were to join you, I would be ruining you.

I will never be happy again in my life!

Thank you for your kindness. I've decided that after your wedding next month, I will return to Beijing with the injured!

Mu Huaisheng, tears streaming down his face, took a breath, cleared his mind, and continued...

"I remember back in the villa, whenever the Marquis went to visit his concubine, the Madam would be sad."

Besides, I'm someone who enters the family together without regard to seniority.

The two of them were speechless after hearing this.

After thinking for a while, what else should I say to comfort him?

Mu Huaisheng only wanted to leave this place.

He quickly stopped them from talking and continued:

"Moreover, I long for the kind of lifelong, monogamous relationship depicted in books."

I believe every woman longs for that~

Furthermore, there's the matter of reputation.

My actions are something I can face heaven and earth with a clear conscience!

It's probably just that our time hasn't come yet. I'll meet my special someone someday.

This decision is my way of repaying your sincerity with sincerity.

I sincerely wish you a long and happy life together!

After saying this, she took off the jade hairpin from her hair and placed it in General Yan's hand.

He turned around and walked away without looking back.

Today you enter this camp, and when we meet again, you will no longer be my Rongchuan.

In my world, you can only be Li Rongchuan.

She seems quite sad, what should I do?

It seems impossible not to be sad.

Sad!

A genuine affection is being used to maintain appearances by relying on old friendships.

Back in his tent, Huaisheng didn't sleep a wink all night.

Seeing this, Zhenniang didn't ask what was wrong, but just held her hand and stayed with her.
