Chapter 319 The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn’t stop
After thinking about it over and over again, he still couldn't understand it. Cheng Su quietly left the banquet, found an opportunity, grabbed Ying Yi, quietly dragged him to a secluded corner, and asked him anxiously.

"Yingyi, when you went south on business that day, did you really stop by my house for my sake? Nothing else? Did you really give me all the things my wife brought?"

Ying was shocked, "Ah?" He tried to push away the hand that was stuck on his neck, but stopped, and almost swore to the heavens, "Brother Cheng, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm not familiar with my sister-in-law, so it's only a coincidence that I'm going to your house. What? Do you suspect me?"

Cheng Su...

Well, Shen Yue never revealed his thoughts, and he was just guessing behind his back. It's okay to warn your own children, but it's obviously not okay to tell others or ask about it out loud.

No matter what the other party's identity is or what his identity is, they both depend on each other for a living. If there is something going on, it's fine. But if there is nothing going on, wouldn't it be that he is shameless and self-indulgent and is actively trying to get close to someone of his status?

I am not afraid of guessing wrong, nor am I afraid of losing face. I am only afraid of ruining my child's reputation. Moreover, it is a day like this now. I can't say it, I can't say it!
As for the familiar stitching, given how much the general valued it at the moment, his concubines all wore them like that, and there were people all around in front of him, so he couldn't get close to take a closer look.

Cheng Su had no choice but to comfort himself, fearing that he had seen it wrong. He anxiously suppressed the random thoughts in his mind and just waited for his family to reply to see if there was any mention of Ying Yi's departure.

Unfortunately, what Cheng Su didn't expect was that such a thing was not easy to publicize, and Li Yaoguang himself had already refused. There was no need to make a big deal out of it. He was afraid that his uncle would feel uncomfortable working under someone else, so it should just be let go quietly.

Then, in the reply letter that Cheng Su received immediately afterwards, although it mentioned that Ying Yi had gone home and brought something for him, it did not mention anything else.

The day after the happy event at the Marshal's Mansion, Cheng Su finished dealing with the military duties that had accumulated over the past few days, but he still felt uneasy. He thought he should write another letter to his family to ask for clarification and give them some instructions before he felt at ease, but then something unexpected happened again.

Cheng Su was promoted and transferred to the north, and immediately set out to continue to wipe out the remaining Hu bandits. These were the frightened remnants of the defeated army and were not to be feared. Shen Yue deliberately let Cheng Su have a good opportunity to make achievements.

Military orders are as heavy as mountains and must not be delayed. Going further north is the place where the Hu and Di people were rampant, with starving people everywhere and nine out of ten houses empty. The Qijitang had already disappeared and has not yet recovered, so it is difficult to send a message.

And it is precisely because of these coincidences that things have been delayed, and misunderstandings and disasters have arisen by accident.

At the end of the first month of this year, the Shen family army divided into several groups and began a major operation.

Along the way, they stabilized people's livelihood in the north and accepted and settled refugees returning from the north;

All the way east to quell the rioting Japanese bandits;

They pursued and wiped out the remaining Hudi all the way and drove them out of the pass completely;
In February of the same year, the Shen family army welcomed a young military advisor named Lu Xinsheng, who had a very pleasant conversation with Shen Yue.
In March of the same year, Shen Yue followed the advice of the Army Division and gathered the remaining forces in the Northland for his own use. For example, chivalrous men such as Gao Dayao were recruited. They were all brave men. Because they admired Shen Yue as a person, respected the Shen family for sacrificing their lives for the country, and were grateful for his recovery of the Northland, they all joined the Shen family army and served Shen Yue.
In May of the same year, Huang Lijin, who had originally wanted to follow Shen Yue wholeheartedly, was discovered by her own father, accused of being shameless, and forcibly abducted back to Wubao. She happened to overhear her father, who was holding the order to recruit talented people, talking to his confidants in the study.

At that time, Huang Lijin's eyes lit up and she murmured to herself that the war in the North ended two years earlier in this life than in the previous life. She was caught off guard by the changes in the world. She wondered if a lot of things had changed inadvertently because of her new life?
Then, in this life, can I still become his woman like I did in my previous life?
No, no, it definitely will!
After a brief moment of anxiety, Huang Lijin recovered instantly, and felt that her man was indeed extraordinary, and his ability in this life was stronger than in the previous life. When she was feeling proud, she heard her father's dissatisfied voice again, and Huang Lijin resented her father even more.

If he hadn't forced her to come back, if she had stayed by her husband's side, and let the man she revered as a god know her sincerity and her friendship, she would have become his concubine today, and a concubine or even the queen in the future! She wouldn't have let those damn noble ladies and tomboys take advantage of her for nothing.

If she had not left that day, why would she have to live like her husband in her previous life, where she would eventually become his concubine, a poor creature in a low position who had never been approached by anyone?

In the end, it’s all my father’s fault!
Huang Lijin fell into deep jealousy and madness, and she wished she could fly to Shen Yue immediately. To this end, she made careful plans, bowed her head, and secretly killed the old guy around her father who was the best at slandering her, and then pretended to be good and tried her best to persuade her father.

It's a pity that Wubao had suffered a huge loss that day because of her. Huang Lijin is a businessman at heart. She can only make money and not lose money, so she is not willing to take advantage of her father if he can't get any benefit.

She also said that Shen Yue was only a general, not an emperor. The whole world belonged to the king. The country was pacified, so the emperor was the most powerful. How could he still believe his daughter's sweet words?
Besides, the world is no longer in chaos and Huang Lijin's father still has a son, so Huang Lijin's father naturally refuses to believe his daughter anymore.

Huang Lijin was very angry about this, and in order to achieve her wish, she came up with another evil plan.

On the one hand, he used the prophet from his previous life and various means to secretly bribe and win over his father's confidants;
On the one hand, he secretly planned to dig out all the remaining money and food hidden by his father, and to gather and find out the caravans and trade routes in his father's hands and control them;

On the one hand, she secretly killed him, and after Huang Lijin tried to persuade him to no avail, she sent all of them to hell.

From then on, Huang Lijin completely controlled Wubao. The first thing she did after taking control of Wubao was to take the bargaining chips in her hands, many guards, Xu Miaoniang and others, and hurried down the mountain to Pengcheng to join her husband.

Without force, it's hard to do business? It doesn't matter. As long as she becomes his woman again, she will let him know her abilities and value, and will prove to him that she is no worse than that dead tomboy.

What she can do, he can do; what she can't do, he can also do by himself. Only she, Huang Lijin, is the person who deserves him most in this world.

Huang Lijin firmly believed that she would be the one who stood shoulder to shoulder with him in this life. A dead tomboy would not do. When a person dies, it is like a light going out. No matter how much you care about him, he will just be a pile of dry bones.
The daughters of the Cui family, the Zhou family, and even the later beautiful girls were even worse. They were all delicate and weak, and could only act arrogantly and eat for free. They were of no help to him at all.

Only yourself, only yourself!
In September of the same year, Huang Lijin led a group of people from Wubao and came to join Shen Yue with the order to recruit talented people.

In October of the same year, the remnants of the Hudi tribe were wiped out, and only the remnants of the army fled back to their old nests, and the north was completely settled.
Due to the situation in the south and the unrevenged emperor and the court, Shen Yue refused to take any stance. Instead, he followed the advice of his military advisors and marched north to the ruined old capital to recuperate, restore people's livelihood, and rebuild the old capital.

The emperor was furious for a while, and the south was in a panic. Anyone who had anything to do with Shen, no matter what their official position, whether male or female, young or old, even if they were just relatives of those who served as generals or soldiers under the Shen family army in the north, all nine clans were targeted by the court, just like the Shen family at the beginning.

It was at this time that Li Yaoguang and his colleagues, who had received the news in advance, were forced to flee Xinjing.
