Views:

It was not Lin Qing's original intention to stay in the capital to get married. If it wasn't for the old lady's death, he would have fled back to the frontier at night. But he never imagined that the bride he married would be more unhappy than himself, unwilling to do the wedding ceremony, and unwilling to drink a glass of wine. He just sat by the bed and cried, so much makeup and swollen eyes. , do not listen to any advice.

My sister was knocked down a mountain stream by an assassin. No one was seen in life, and no corpse was seen in death. Lin Qing was also very sad, where would he have the intention to marry? He didn't touch the bride, took a few quilts and went to the study. The two are called husband and wife, but they are actually like strangers living under the same roof.

After half a month like this, the old lady couldn't stand it anymore, so she just made it clear that for the two of them to consummate the marriage, as long as the bride was pregnant with a child, Lin Qing could go to the border to fight, and they would never force him to do anything again. Whether this child is male or female, they will help Lin Qing to raise him, and it can also be regarded as saving a trace of blood for the Lin family.

Lin Qing was really tempted, and carried the quilt back to the new house that night, but unexpectedly the bride who had been quiet for a few days began to cry again. This time, she cried more sadly than the last time, as if her heart was broken. Her maids were all around her, seemingly persuading her, but in fact they blocked Lin Qing from getting close.

No matter how stupid Lin Qing was, he could see a clue, and said solemnly, "Are you not willing to marry me?"

The cry of the bride stopped for a moment.

Lin Qing sighed: "Although your family is defeated, you still have the title of Earl. You are also the daughter of the Earl's Palace. It is really wronging you to marry into my Lin family. I understand the situation of my family. Now I am the only one left alive. Although my sister is talented, her life and death are unknown, but I am a person who can't handle things and can't support the Lin family lintel. You marry me, not only will you not be able to enjoy the glory and wealth, but you will have to follow Endure hardship and suffering, if I make you pregnant again, what will your mother do when I leave in the future?"

Lin Qing thought of his mother's hard work in raising him, and the current situation of the Lin family. He couldn't help feeling sad and tears rolled down.

Unconsciously, the bride stopped crying, but did not look at him, but held on to the hem of her clothes.

Seeing her reluctant appearance, Lin Qing also waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I won't harm you. If you really don't want to marry me, I'll send you back. Now the border is in a hurry, the state of Wei is at stake, and the capital is at stake. All the Xungui in Li have made up their minds to go to the south, and no one will care about your marriage and divorce at this time. If you go to the south, you can find another sweetheart. "

After going through so many ups and downs, Lin Qing also became open-minded. He took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and slowly wrote a letter and a book.

Seeing him like this, the bride couldn't help but say a few sincere words: "I really don't want to marry you, if the old lady gave my father 20,000 taels of gold as a dowry, and my mother is a stepmother, regardless of my life or death, I would also I won't enter your Lin Mansion."

Lin Qing shook his head and said: "I know, it's spread all over the world now, saying that as soon as you enter the Lin Mansion, you have to be a widow. How could someone who is a little better harm her daughter like this? The old lady has been searching in Beijing for more than half a month. I only found your home. What I saw was that you have a greedy father and a cruel mother. You are also a pitiful person. I will give you some silver taels. Sooner or later, you will die on the battlefield, so I can't hurt you."

The bride waved her hand and said, "No, no, I can't have silver taels. Just send me home." She also has a younger brother left in her stepmother's hands. It's a long way to go to the south, and I don't know if my stepmother will Take the opportunity to attack your brother. Furthermore, she already had someone in her heart, and when she went to the south, no one knew her details, and she could persuade her father to marry her again.

In the end, Lin Qing still stuffed her with a bag of golden leaves, and it was considered that this evil relationship was broken. The decision of the two, the old lady naturally refused to agree, but there is no way to do so, the grandson is unwilling to touch others, can it still be possible to prescribe medicine for the grandson

On the day when the bride was sent home, the Wuhu Allied Army and the Western Expedition Army had already started a fierce battle on the frontier. Although the report of the battle had not yet come, all the nobles in the capital were ready to flee for their lives. You must know that once the gate of the country is breached, with the speed of the Xiongnu iron cavalry, it will only take seven days to break into the capital. How many people will die in seven days, they dare not even think about it.

After all, the old lady couldn't swallow that breath, and she must return the betrothal gift from the family.

20,000 taels of gold is not a small amount. It can be used to buy a family business when they go to the south. How could this family be willing to pay it back? They quarreled with the old lady on the spot, scolding them for being lonely and widow, and scolding them for their fate. There is no good ending, and you can scold whatever is unpleasant.

The old lady was so angry that her eyes were dimmed, she was about to vomit blood, and she was about to hit someone with the faucet stick. Lin Qing gritted his teeth secretly, regretting that he should not have given the bride a bag of golden leaves. If he had known that his family could be so shameless, he would never have been such a good person!

The bride did not help either side, but just knelt on the ground and kowtowed. For the sake of her brother, she would never go back to the Lin family. If the Lin family is still as prosperous as before, it doesn't matter if she is a widow. Anyway, the Lin family has power and power and can protect her younger brother from growing up. But the current Lin family has nothing but an incompetent Lin Qing. When the Huns call, Lin Qing will definitely be left by the emperor to guard the capital, and it will be a dead end.

She knew all too well the nature of the Lin family. Even if everyone in the capital ran to the south, they wouldn't run away. Rather than stay and wait to die, it would be better to reconcile. The more she thought about it, the more sad she cried, and her heartbroken appearance made many passers-by feel sympathetic and could not help but speak for her: "Old lady, forget it, don't you know what's going on in your family? Why bother others? nice girl!"

"Yes, you shouldn't have come to propose marriage in the first place. You made up your mind to let the girl live as a widow. Isn't it fair to give so many dowry gifts?"

"You are all married, and you have taken advantage of all the advantages, and then suddenly divorced and asked for a betrothal gift. It's too careless! You are still the same as before when you are the Lin family. How about you choose good girls from all over the capital? It's not bad if someone is willing to marry you, don't take an inch."

Seeing that everyone was on their side, the bride's stepmother became more and more arrogant, pointed to the nose of the old lady and said, "I'll give you a definite word today, if we don't return the betrothal gift, we will also take it away. You can do whatever you like, and we won't be afraid to tell the emperor!" After today, even the emperor has to flee south with his tail tucked, who cares about these rotten millets

As the saying goes, if the wall falls and everyone pushes, the Lin family will die sooner or later, so what benefits can they gain from helping them? It's better to fall into a hole and be happy. With such sinister intentions, more and more people spoke to the bride, so angry that the old lady almost fainted. Lin Qing was so remorseful that he could not wait to pull out his saber and chop these people down.

He just didn't want to hurt people, but he didn't expect to hurt his own family. He really can't do anything, he's just a useless waste, if he can exchange his life for his sister's life, how wonderful it would be? With my sister here, the Lin family would definitely not be humiliated to such a degree.

The more Lin Qing thought about it, the more angry he became, his palm was already on the handle of the knife, and he was about to commit murder, but he saw a fast horse passing through the market like a sharp arrow, shouting all the way: "Let me go, let me go, 800 miles to hurry. Battle report! Frontier victory, frontier victory!"

There was an uproar in the crowd, and then they separated a road, allowing the postman to pass unimpeded.

Lin Qing couldn't care less, rushed to the side of the road and asked loudly, "Is the border victory true?"

The post envoy didn't want to pay attention to him, but when he saw the old lady, he couldn't help pulling on the reins, slowed down, and said excitedly, "It's true! At the critical moment, General Lin Dan led a group of wild horses suddenly appeared from the rear of the Wuhu Allied Forces, not only breaking through the enemy's formation , took the heads of the four clan leaders, seriously injured Mo Xiao, and defeated the Huns! General Lin Dan is leading the Western Expedition Army to encircle and suppress the remnants of the Wuhu on the grasslands, consolidating the victory, and the Wei State has been saved! Lao Taijun, General Lin Dan I ordered me to send you a letter of safety, you should hurry back, and when I see the emperor, I will go to the mansion to meet..." He said that the person had already run away, leaving only a string of happy laughter.

Hearing what the post envoy said, the old lady immediately put out her anger and said urgently, "Hurry up, hurry up and go home! I'm going to wait for my good grandson's letter of safety!"

Lin Qing's face was swept away in despair, and he shouted in the street: "My sister is not dead, my sister won! Did you hear, my sister won!" The passers-by around didn't dare to say a word of ridicule, and looked at the Lin family with awe and gratitude.

Lin Qing roared a few more times, feeling very happy, and finally didn't look at the bride's family, and hurried back with the old lady. All the female relatives of the Lin family immediately put their hearts back into their stomachs. Although they tried their best to endure, they still laughed all the way, until tears fell.

Passers-by gave way to them one after another, and when they went out all the way, they shouted ecstatically: "Wei Guosheng has won, we don't have to run away! Go home and report!"

In an instant, the crowded streets became empty, and the bride was still kneeling on the ground, tears on her cheeks, but there was no grief on her face, but it was like seeing a ghost. Her father and mother were triumphant and arrogant just a moment ago, but now their faces are like golden paper, shaking like chaff.

Lin Dan came back alive and made great achievements. How would the emperor reward her? Just thinking about this, they were already slumped on the ground, and after a while, they barely got up, and they quickly ordered 20,000 taels of gold to be sent back together with the bride.

This time, the bride stopped crying, but cooperated very well, but unexpectedly, the door of the Lin family was closed, and she was not allowed to step in. For the sake of her younger brother's future, she had to kneel at the door to apologize. Several maids knelt with her and whispered, "Girl, Lin Dan is a woman after all, even if she has made military exploits, her future is limited. Do you really want to come back?"

"She can't be sealed, and Lin Qing can take her place." The bride explained in a low voice. Lin Dan is a woman. Because of the rules, the emperor will definitely not give her a big reward, but he will not treat the Lin family badly. This military exploit will naturally fall on Lin Qing. With Lin Dan at the front and Lin Qing enjoying military exploits at the back, the bride can be a lady without being a widow, so why not do it? If she had known that marrying Lin Qing had such good things, she would not have divorced anyway!

The bride was remorseful when she saw several eunuchs hurried into the mansion with imperial edicts. After a while, several imperial guards ran over, put on the ladder, took off the plaque with the word "Lin Mansion" written on it, and replaced it with a new one. The plaque with the words "Dingguo General's Mansion" written on a black background with gilt.

There was a flash of ecstasy in the bride's eyes, and she quickly asked: "This lord, but Lin Qing was canonized as Dingguo General?"

"Who is Lin Qing?" Several guards said sternly: "Now that General Lin Dan has been canonized by the emperor as the Great General of Dingguo, and he has also been named a First-Rank Marquis, don't kneel here to get in the way, there will be people in the palace later. Sending rewards, be careful stepping on you."

The bride was stunned, and was chased away by the imperial army before she murmured in a trance: "In Wei, can a woman be a general or a marquis? What the hell is this?"
