Chapter 76
Chapter 76: End of Marriage
Seeing Dongfang Buwen really returned the same way, Gu Du frowned and said loudly: "You neither advised me to leave nor were you afraid of sneak attacking me behind my back. What's the reason?"
Dongfang Buwen stopped and turned around and replied, "I can't persuade you to leave. You and I are each their own masters and are hostile to each other. Why should I persuade you to leave? As for the sneak attack behind the scenes... I have already said that I am not here to fight you, and after we chatted for a while, you didn't mean to take action, and even put away the knife."
"In addition, in the battle of Rizhaoguan, you are famous all over the world. Will such a brave and loyal person be attacked by an old man who is invincible, silenced, and unarmed?"
Gu Du looked at him without saying anything, Dongfang Buwen smiled and turned around and left.
In Linghuang Palace, the Spirit Emperor summoned her from the priest to the inner hall and said, "Zhong Qi, you were the one who reviewed Jin Lan at the beginning. I read the record book. Why did you allow her to be rebelled and surrender to naturalization?"
From the priest replied, "Return to the emperor, I do not think there is anything wrong with her answer."
The Ling Emperor said: "She did not surrender to my Ling Kingdom, she was just Gu Du."
From the priest lowered his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, I forgive you for being rude. I have something to ask you, I wonder if you can do it?"
The Spirit Emperor replied: "You ask."
From the priest asked, "Dare you ask the emperor, when the young man is ignorant, does he have a beloved woman?"
The Spirit Emperor replied frankly: "Of course there is."
From the priest asked again: "The emperor was sincere at that time?"
The Emperor Ling smiled and said, "What you mean is that the youth's feelings are so true and pure. He would rather bear the whole world than stay with his beloved forever."
From the priest raised his hand and said, "My emperor, Gu Du is a talent that has been rare in the Soul Control Division in decades. Both spiritual power and martial arts are excellent. They have saved Jin Lan's life several times and kept her chastity. The two are of the same age and appearance. Jin Lan fell in love with Gu Du and was willing to follow her life and death. This is reasonable."
The Spirit Emperor asked, "Aren't you afraid that Jin Lan will lure Gu Du into rebellion?"
From the priest replied: "Jin Lan is an orphan, and Gu Du is also an orphan. Both of them have no relatives and no reason. They depend on each other for life when they die, so they secretly fall in love with each other. Gu Du has already had a high official position and a generous salary. He is also famous all over the world because of the battle of Rizhaoguan. The future is limitless. Why should he follow Jin Lan? Why did Jin Lan lure Gu Du to rebel? It is not worth the loss."
Emperor Ling said: "Jin Lan had known that Zeguo was going to dig the boundary river for a long time, but he didn't say that until Zeguo started construction, why is this?"
From the priest replied: "Back to the emperor, the emperor shoulders the burden of the spiritual country and cares about the welfare of the people. Some doubts are necessary. However, I think that Jin Lan is just a spiritual servant in Zeguo, and she is an ordinary spiritual servant. She cannot be promoted to the spiritual master after three years of being selected. It can be seen that her qualifications are too ordinary. What does a child know about a century-old plan like digging a boundary river? Perhaps she herself doesn't believe that Zeguo can really digging a boundary river."
The Spirit Emperor nodded slowly and said from the priest: "But when the Zeguo was excavated, she told him about it and directly pointed out the interests. This shows that she was in love with Gu Du and no longer cared about the survival of Zeguo."
The Linghuang was silent for a while and said, "I will be promoted to Jin Lan as a white-robed soul master. I will be transferred to Zhenbei Pass immediately to cooperate with Guan Shanyue and Gu Du to guard the border."
At noon, Li Xia called the escort team to rest. A team of officers and soldiers rushed over the official road. The leader was Dongfang Xuan. He dismounted from his horse and bowed to Li Xia and Jin Lan one after another, saying, "Have you seen Master Li, Master Jin?"
"Ah?" The two of them looked at him in surprise.
Dongfang Xuan said: "Congratulations to Master Jin, the emperor ordered you to be promoted to the white-robed soul master, and immediately transferred to Zhenbei Pass to cooperate with Master Guan and Master Gu to guard the border. The high priest ordered his disciples to send a message. This team of officers and soldiers will escort you to Zhenbei Pass."
Jin Lan cried with joy, Li Xia also shed tears, and took Jin Lan's hand and said, "Okay, the grace of the emperor, you have finally got what you want. Tell him, don't be angry with me anymore."
Jin Lan hugged Lixia and cried loudly, and Lixia also burst into tears.
Chu Shuting cried out and shouted, "Don't sister go! Don't sister go..."
When Jin Lan returned to Zhenbei Pass, Gu Du also cried with joy and hugged Jin Lan and was reluctant to let go for a long time.
When Wu Renxiong found out, he immediately wanted to organize the marriage for the two. Gu Du held him down and sent a letter to Chu Qin first. He received a reply from Chu Qin that they would get married soon after they were guarding the border for a long time. Besides, the soul master is not a master and has no name for father, but he is not as good as Wu Renxiong, the eldest brother.
So Wu Renxiong sent 500 light cavalry to go to the nearest town to buy, and Zhenbeiguan put lights together to marry Gu Du and Jin Lan.
The two of them were worshipped by the General's Mansion. Wu Renxiong vacated the side courtyard of the General's Mansion for Gu Du, and Conghai and Fang Shiyao stayed in the main courtyard, becoming a nameless guard.
Ten days after the marriage, Chu Qin and Shangguan He's gifts were delivered, but only some jewelry was given to Jin Lan. The letter said that other gifts were left in the palace to avoid luck.
Ten more days later, the gift from Qixia was delivered, which was a mandarin duck quilt and two mandarin duck pillows.
Jin Lan stroked the quilt face and asked with a smile: "I've been back for more than a month, why don't you ask?"
Gu Du asked back: "What are you asking?"
Jin Lan replied: "I'm asking if Lixia is good."
Gu Du said: "What's wrong with her? Have you sent all these gifts?"
Jin Lan said: "She cried so sadly on the way back to the imperial city."
Gu Du said: "She deserves it, who lets her get involved with me?"
Jin Lan smiled and said, "If you are ruthless, how can you say "I deserve it?"
Gu Du frowned and said, "I told you not to joke with her."
Jin Lan smiled and said, "Okay, I won't joke about her, but the gift from others has also arrived. In just a few days, I embroidered this brocade quilt and two mandarin pillows. I'm afraid I can't sleep. At least you can write her a letter?"
Gu Du said, "You should write it for her. She is your soul master in name, and you have deep sisterhood. Don't get me in. In addition, you don't have to test me like this. If I have any intention with her, I will not marry you. Three thousand waters are enough."
Jin Lanyan smiled and Gu Du said again: "I'll go find the general. I've been resting for a month. I'm going to see the situation of Jiehe."
Jin Lan stood up and said, "I'll go with you."
Gu Du said, "Don't go, you haven't led the Soul Army, I'll go and check it out and go back."
When Gu Du left, Jin Lan sighed softly. After all, she did not have the ability of Li Xia and could not fight side by side with Gu Du. In fact, she was like Shangguan He, who married a good husband, and under the name of a soul master, but was only worthy of staying at home to take care of her husband and children.
