Chapter 530 (1/2)
Xueer takes Qi Rongyue's leftover tea on the table and pours in a big mouthful first, then she catches her breath a little. This is what she just saw and heard on the street and says: ”Miss, so, your marriage with Yin Yixuan is going to be postponed again?”
She shrugged her shoulders: ”that's natural. Yin Yixuan has been admitted to the Imperial Academy. He has a serious official position. This year, the ancestral system of marriage is forbidden. He dare not not refuse.”
Xue'er smiled more and more brightly: ”in this way, he can't rely on the emperor and the princess to force the marriage any more. As soon as Shizi comes back, we --”
Qi Rongyue hurriedly hisses, points out the outside again, whispers: ”it's better to understand something in the heart, don't say it, small heart has ears in the wall.”
Xueer hurriedly nodded, and approached mysteriously. She lowered her voice and said: ”when Shizi comes back, Yin Yixuan must be good-looking. How dare he think of his woman when he is not in Beijing? Hee hee --”
ZHENG Zhongwen's character is that they all know that everything is easy to talk about, not to worry about. But as long as it involves Qi Rongyue, it is not so easy to talk. It's very easy to care about and indulge Yin Yixuan and he have been close friends for many years, and he will never let him go.
Thinking of Zhongwen, who had not returned from a long journey, she blushed and murmured, ”I don't know whether he and his master are OK in Mobei.”

Chu Lian frowned and read the war report from Longxi, looked up and said to general Wu, who was kneeling three feet away from the Royal table, ”is it true?”
General Wu said: ”when I returned to the emperor, I found out that it was true. Commander Zheng led 200000 troops to camp at the border of Longxi, but did not fight with Zhou army.”
Chu Lian asked, ”what about the Zhou army?”
”The 150000 troops of Zhou army also camped at the border, only a mile away from our Chu army.”
