Chapter 861: Extra: Shock and Separation (1)
Suzhou City.
"Tomorrow General Zhenli will be getting married. The whole city will be invited to a banquet!!"
A cheer spread throughout Suzhou City within a day.
Suddenly, there was a heated discussion in the city.
"General Zhenli is getting married? Did I hear it wrong?"
"Yes, General Zhenli has always been a warrior who kills enemies on the battlefield. He has countless enemy soldiers under his command and is filled with murderous intent. What kind of woman could possibly catch the eye of this great general?"
People gathered in the teahouse in groups of three or four, all discussing the biggest event in Suzhou City today.
"You don't know this, right? The wife General Zhenli is about to marry also has an extraordinary background!"
"Have you heard of the Zhenhe Army, the first women's army in our Tianqi Nation?"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately replied, "Of course we know! It's a women's army founded by Princess Li during the late Emperor's lifetime! It's said that within this women's army, there's a mysterious elite squad, spread across the four nations carrying out various secret missions, and they've even received commendations from the new Emperor several times!"
"By the way, didn't they say that Prince Li and Princess Li retired together? Is this women's army still there?"
When the other person heard this, a mysterious smile appeared on his face, "Brother, you hit the nail on the head!"
"Princess Li has retired, and the Zhenhe Army is now commanded by another female general. It is said that her name is Yi Meir, and she once served under Princess Li for a period of time and was once her deputy general!"
The person next to him put down his teacup and speculated, "Brother, are you saying that this General Yi Mei'er is the wife that General Zhenli will marry tomorrow?"
"Hey! You're absolutely right! That's it!!"
Everyone suddenly realized, "No wonder she could make a man like General Zhenli bow down to her. It turns out she is also a heroic female general!"
"Heroes match heroes, this is a match made in heaven!!"
"General Zhenli has conquered countless enemies and guarded the borders, making him a hero in the hearts of the people! Even though my family is in financial difficulty, I must go to the General's Mansion and bring a gift to General Zhenli!"
"Haha, since it's so lively, I want to join in the fun too!!"
Just as everyone was discussing this, a man sat in the corner of the teahouse. He wore a conical hat, held a sword in his left hand, and a teacup in his right hand. When he heard the word "Yimeir", his expression changed slightly, and he left immediately.
The next day, red silk was hung high in the Zhenbei General's Mansion, and many generals and soldiers came to congratulate him.
Unlike the weddings of the powerful in Kyoto, the congratulatory figures at General Zhenli's wedding were all military officers. There were also many civilians in the city, but most of them came to see the wedding. Those who offered gifts were all turned away.
Afterwards, the people were taken to the three major restaurants in Suzhou City. These three restaurants were booked by the General's Mansion today to host a buffet and entertain the entire city.
In another mansion in Suzhou City, red silk and red lanterns were also hung, and in the inner room of the mansion was a woman dressed in bright red wedding clothes.
"Sister Mei'er, you are so beautiful!"
People say, "A woman is most beautiful when she gets married." Zhang Zhirou finally understood the true meaning of this sentence.
People who are already beautiful can become even more beautiful when they get married!
This is true for Sister He and Sister Mei'er.
Yi Meier smiled slightly, "When you get married, you will definitely be more beautiful than your sister!!"
A hint of shyness flashed across Zhang Zhirou's brows, and her expression became a little stiff. "I won't get married!"
Yi Mei'er finished drawing her eyebrows and turned to look at her with a smile in her eyes, "Why, it's Prince Dongping's performance, and you're still not satisfied?"
"Or are you worried about the Princess of Western Chu?"
Zhang Zhirou twisted her fingers, feeling a little uneasy.
Neither, nor, both.
"I just feel that Jiang Dongping and I may not be from the same world."
"I yearn for the martial arts world, and he was born into a noble family. We are from two completely different worlds!"
"I just can't stand going back to a place like that and having to fake smile at people every day!"
"This time, if you hadn't sent me a letter saying you wanted to marry General Zhenli, I wouldn't have come back! And Jiang Dongping, don't even think about seeing me again!"
"I just got a dog-skin plaster that I can't get rid of!"
Yi Meir couldn't help laughing. She could tell that her words were a bit hypocritical.
"I heard from Zhenli that Jiang Dongping wants to go with you to venture into the martial arts world?"
Zhang Zhirou blushed slightly. He did say this.
"Since he can say such words, it means that you are extremely important to him!"
How can someone who is willing to give up everything for you not be important?
"He, maybe he was just talking casually..." Zhang Zhirou actually couldn't believe it. After all, he was a filial son. How could he leave his hometown while his parents were still alive?
"Whether it's true or not, time will tell!"
"To be honest, I envy you the carefree and carefree days of wandering the world. If he wasn't burdened with the heavy responsibility of serving the country, I would definitely stay with you!"
"I came out of the Poison King Valley alone, with no elders or close friends around me. There's only you and the princess. Getting married is a major event in life, and I still want someone to accompany me, so I sent you a letter by carrier pigeon..."
"Sister Rou'er, I hope you don't blame me for disrupting your life."
"Sister, don't say that! I will definitely attend your wedding with General Zhenli! Even if you don't invite me, I will come!"
Joyful sounds were heard outside the mansion. Zhang Zhirou's face lit up with joy and she quickly said, "Here they are! The bride is coming!"
Tears glistened in Yi Meir's round eyes.
This day was finally what she had been waiting for.
From the time he left without saying goodbye five years ago to now, she had spent more than four years looking for him, and finally melted his closed heart!
Yi Meir and Zhenli were not the most lively types, so the wedding was relatively simple. Only Nanqi and Xizhu were more lively and made trouble for Zhenli for a while before letting him take the bride away.
At the general's mansion, the soldiers were praying to heaven and earth, and there was a lot of noise. These people were all really worried about Zhen Li.
"The leader of the four generals, who I thought was least likely to get married, is actually the first to get married! What a surprise!"
"General Nan, Lord Xizhu, you must work harder! The generals of our Chengfeng Army must marry off the four of you!"
Nanqi laughed heartily and put his arm directly on Xizhu's shoulder. "Old He, you're saying this to the wrong person. Among the four of us, the eldest is married, and I'm about to get married too. But Xizhu has a crush on someone, and he hasn't gotten her yet. You should be the one pushing him!"
Xi Zhu glared at him and said, "You're really good at bringing up all sorts of issues!"
"That's because I don't have your conditions. Otherwise, I'd also play the hero and save the beauty. I just don't believe I can't marry a wife!!"
After hearing this, the people around laughed and said, "They say that General Nan killed Yunlai and snatched back our Princess Tianqi. It seems that this legend is true?"
"Of course!" Nanqi rubbed his nose with a bit of pride!
"General Nan is so daring! He's truly a role model for our generation! Hahahaha!"
"Huh? So, among the four generals, isn't General Bei the only one whose marriage is still uncertain?"
Nanqi and Xizhu's expressions changed when they heard this, and they quickly changed the subject, "Look, look, it's time to salute, it's time to salute!"
After being interrupted, those people did not ask any more questions, and even forgot to ask why General Bei did not come to the wedding.
The entrance of the two newcomers immediately caused a roar.
After taking off his military uniform, Zhen Li became less fierce and cold, and more gentle and tender.
Yi Meir transformed into a charming young lady, a stark contrast to her usual aloof self. Beneath the red fan, her eyes revealed a tenderness and tenderness, and when she saw the man before her, the smile on her lips deepened.
“Bow to Heaven and Earth!!”
The chanting sounded steadily amid the cheers of the crowd, guiding the newlyweds.
They both bowed together, then stood up, and everyone cheered.
"Two obeisances..."
"Junior sister, why didn't you invite your senior brother to attend such a big event as getting married?"
Suddenly, a slightly provocative voice was heard in the air, interrupting the newlyweds' wedding ceremony.
