The eldest princess didn't understand his obsession. She was already middle-aged, no longer as lively as she was when she was young, and her appearance was slowly getting older. She was not worthy of his waiting for so long.
"You also said it would only be a few decades. We have wasted so much time. I want to live as I want for the rest of my life."
The Lu family are all infatuated. No man in the Lu family has ever taken a concubine, and they only marry the ones they love. If they don't meet the one they like, they would rather not marry.
"I'm tired, you go back first."
His eyes were so hot that the eldest princess was so panicked that she couldn't deal with him and could only drive him away.
"Then I'll come back tomorrow."
Lu Yuanshan didn't force her. Being able to talk to her for so long today was already progress. If he wanted Linlang to open his heart, he still needed to continue working hard.
Before the eldest princess agreed, he bowed, turned and left, walking fast and urgently, for fear that the eldest princess would reject him.
When Grandma Qi saw the person walking away, she couldn't help but laugh.
"I didn't expect that after seeing him for several years, Lu Guogong still had the same temperament as when he was young."
Different from Jiang Zhe's domineering attitude, Lu Yuanshan has always been gentle and gentle, and is not willing to embarrass their master. However, people are fond of being strong, especially a proud daughter like the eldest princess. Compared with Lu Yuanshan, who was always humble, when she was young, she preferred to be able to be strong.
Jiang Zhe who aroused her desire to conquer.
However, she married the wrong person. Jiang Zhe liked her appearance but hated her temperament. After getting married, the novelty soon wore off.
Aunt Qi felt sorry for her master's plight. If she had chosen Lu Guogong from the beginning, their master would be much happier now.
But it's not too late now. Lu Guogong has always been thinking about his master. A good girl is afraid of being harassed by a man. Sooner or later, they will be together.

After Jiang Zhe came out of the outer courtyard, he immediately returned to the military camp. Gao Qun was slashed in the arm, which was wrapped in thick cotton cloth. He held it with one hand and knelt down to apologize to Jiang Zhe.
"My subordinates underestimated the enemy and underestimated Tuoba Mingge's ability. They let him sneak in and kill the soldiers of the second battalion. I want the general to convict him!"
Tuoba Mingge took advantage of the late night guard to sneak in when the guards were at their weakest. He also had people set fire to the food to divert attention, but in fact the target was Jiang Zhe's camp.
"First, send us the whereabouts of Tuoba Mingge. There are so many dead and injured brothers in the army. You personally lead the troops to attack the enemy and make up for the blame!"
"yes!"
Jiang Zhe took the whereabouts map and saw that there was a narrow path between the Dayan Army and the Xiliang Army. The terrain was steep and could only allow one person to pass by. Usually there were soldiers guarding the place, but at some point the soldier was bribed to defect to the enemy and personally
Lead the Xiliang army to sneak in.
This is also the reason why Gao Qun was unprepared at first.
Jiang Zhe's face was sullen, and his whole body was filled with chills. He traced his finger on the most dangerous part of the two mountains.
"There is another place here. We have set up a stone formation. Tuoba Mingge will definitely pass by here if he wants to return to Xiliang. I will let people pretend to be pursuing him and lead them here. Then we will take action directly!"
"yes!"
Gao Qun was ordered to go out. Tuoba Mingge had killed so many people in his army, and the account must be settled.
Guo Zhao stayed up all night. He was alert at night. It was he who heard the sound of the enemy invading, so he woke up the people in the same camp to prepare them so that they would not be killed by the sword.
Because of what happened last night, Guo Zhao also came into Gao Qun's sight and was directly promoted to centurion. Today, Tuoba Mingge was ambushed, and Gao Qun was going to take him there.
Guo Zhao joined the army just to make a bright future, so he would not let go of such an opportunity.
He was far away at the border and didn't know that Jiang Miao was the princess of Rongning County. Naturally, he didn't know about her relationship with Jiang Zhe.
Tuoba Mingge came out of Dayan's camp, his whole body was in high spirits, and his subordinates were also proud of him.
Xiliang has been suppressed by Dayan for decades, especially Jiang Zhe, who killed five of their Xixia generals in his life. His name can stop children from crying in Xixia, and the soldiers never thought that they could walk away from him.
, and even killed his entire battalion of soldiers, which looks like a dream no matter how you look at it.
"This old man Jiang Zhe is nothing more than that!"
The deputy general next to Tuoba Mingge sighed, his tone quite complacent.
Jiang Zhe's reputation was so popular that he was defeated by his prince.
"Don't underestimate the enemy!"
Jiang Zhe was able to garrison the border for decades, but the former emperor of the Yan Dynasty was fatuous and incompetent. The fat man of Yan could not be attacked for a long time. It was because of the bravery of Jiang Zhe and others. He only succeeded in a sneak attack once, which was not enough to be complacent.
Tuoba Mingge was very sober. He just took advantage of Jiang Zhe's absence in the army. Perhaps Jiang Zhe had already realized it and figured out a counterattack strategy.
"Let everyone be careful, there may be an ambush along the way."
"What kind of ambush? Your Highness, you think too highly of him. If you want to tell your subordinates, then Jiang Zhe has a false reputation. His reputation may have come from Dayan's eldest princess. Why bother letting go of a pretty boy?"
In my heart..."
This deputy general came from a prominent family and had a high self-esteem. No one except Tuoba Mingge cared about him. He had never fought against Jiang Zhe, so he didn't know how terrifying he was.
Tuoba Mingge frowned, and when he reached the sky, he waved for everyone to stop.
"Your Highness?"
The deputy general wanted to talk again, but was frightened by Tuoba Mingge's eyes and did not dare to say anything anymore.
The group of people was silent. Tuoba Mingge put his ear against the wall. There was a rustling sound inside, like the sound of rolling stones. His brows frowned even more.
"I'm afraid there's an ambush ahead, retreat!"
The team turned around and walked back, but before they could get far, they were injured by rocks rolling down the cliff.
"There is an ambush! Escort His Highness away quickly!"
There was an ambush in front and pursuers behind. The mountains on both sides were blazing with fire. Tuoba Mingge saw all the soldiers holding bows and arrows, all aiming at him.
He felt numb, knowing that this was a trap.
Jiang Zhe deliberately set up an ambush and led him here just to take his life.
Guo Zhao had sharp eyes and great strength. He drew his bow to its full capacity, and with a "whoosh" sound, the arrow was aimed straight at his heart.
Tuoba Mingge didn't have time to hide, so he directly pulled the deputy general beside him, and the arrow passed through his heart and pierced Tuoba Mingge's arm.
"Your Highness... Your Highness?"
The lieutenant never expected that the master he followed wholeheartedly would use him to block an arrow.
"I will give the Lin family a promotion when I get back, so don't worry."
Tuoba Mingge was already prepared. If the arrow failed, it would be difficult to hit him.
Guo Zhao shot a few more arrows, but he dodged them all. Everyone in the Xiliang army was killed and injured, and they had to fight their way out.
Tuoba Mingge escaped while being escorted by his generals. The blood on his shoulder was gurgling and stained his armor.
"Master, this Jiang Zhe is determined to take your life, we must not let him go!"
"Yes, Your Highness, I am willing to fight back to Dayan Army Camp and take the head from Jiang Zhe's neck to avenge you!"
The crowd is furious, today is their shame.
"Jiang Zhe is a cunning man. You will not be able to escape in his hands. This matter must be considered in the long run."
