A lazy bum transmigrates and marries a eunuch – it's awesome!

Chapter 293 Reencounter with Wang Huan

Jin Zekang will completely listen to Xie Zhuo regarding whether or not to form a marriage alliance with the Yu family.

Regardless of whether an idea kills three or four birds with one stone, anything that makes Ah Zhuo even slightly unhappy is a bad idea.

Xie Zhuo said that he knew Jin Zekang would not be jealous of his feelings for him.

Why not do something that can be solved by acting?

Even if Yu Hui develops other intentions after arriving in the capital, it will be easy to control her.

The root of infidelity lies with the partner; as long as their heart remains unmoved, no one else will have a chance.

Jin Zekang could also see that a marriage alliance was the safest option, and since Azhuo didn't object, it was settled.

First, an imperial edict bestowing marriage was written in the emperor's name, and then someone else wrote a letter of earnest thanks proposing marriage.

As for things like not taking concubines or taking mistresses, you can write all of those things on the list.

Anyway, he only needs Ah Zhuo, so he won't have that kind of thing at all.

It just so happens that the eldest daughter of the Yu family took on this role.

He established himself as a devoted husband, a man who would stay with his wife for life, effectively preventing anyone from trying to marry him.

However, since it was time to fight the Quanrong, the wedding was naturally postponed.

Since the two places were far apart and it was inconvenient to send betrothal gifts, Jin Zekang found a few pieces of exquisite jewelry that were easy to carry from the old emperor's private treasury.

They also dug out the land deed of the Yu family's old house that had been confiscated and added it back, which was considered a sufficient expression of sincerity to the Yu family.

Ever since Xiao Yuan and the others left, the Yu family father and son have been on tenterhooks.

They had absolutely no confidence that this couple could persuade the regent to form a marriage alliance with their family.

Yu Sheng was finally relieved when the eunuch from the capital came to the mansion to deliver the imperial edict and a personal letter from the regent.

Instead of sending silver notes directly as betrothal gifts, which involved traveling long distances, jewels and land deeds were sufficient proof of the Regent's satisfaction with the marriage.

Yu Sheng also got the hang of it.

He simply packed up a lot of gold, silver and valuables and sent 100 guards to have his second son escort his daughter to the capital with the imperial eunuch.

We can't bring the dowry we brought from so far away, so we'll just take more money and buy whatever we need when we get to Beijing.

Logically, there's no need to rush if the wedding date isn't set, but given the current turbulent times in the Great Jin Dynasty, he has to make a gesture to reassure the court.

Everyone knows that he only has these three children left, and sending his son and daughter to the capital is already the greatest show of sincerity.

Nominally she was to be married off, but in reality she was a hostage.

Yu Hui had previously considered eloping because she was afraid her father would find out about her relationship with Alan, but now that she was really leaving her father, she couldn't stop crying.

Yu Sheng was also reluctant to part with his beloved daughter, dawdling day after day until the imperial eunuch urged him several times before he finally said goodbye with reluctance.

His two sons also tried to persuade him.

It is said that in recent years, the two brothers have worked hard to take over their father's responsibilities, and once the political situation stabilizes, their father can return to the capital to visit his sister.

They were born in Beijing, and their grandparents' graves were also in Beijing.

Father will have to go back sooner or later, and it's better for my sister to marry in the capital than in Sichuan.

Whatever the Yu family does or what arrangements Jin Zekang makes is none of Xiao Yuan and his wife's business.

Jiang Xinyu simply acted as a go-between and wrote a letter, and after leaving Sichuan, she had long forgotten about the matter.

On the way, I heard that the fighting had started at the front and that the Marquis of Zhenguo was personally overseeing the battle and winning one victory after another.

Jiang Xinyu had great confidence in Bao Beibei's abilities, and was not as eager to travel from Beijing to Sichuan this time.

More than half a month later, the group finally arrived at the border, and Xiao Yuan successfully switched places with Chen Jiu.

Without anyone knowing, the counterfeit became the real thing.

Xiao Douzi reported to Xiao Yuan about the situation in the army these days, and Chen Jiu also recounted who he had met and what they had said.

Jiang Xinyu didn't want to get involved in their serious business, so she went to find Bao Beibei after washing up.

As soon as Jiang Xinyu arrived at Bao Beibei's yard, she saw a young general in silver armor hugging Bao Beibei. Jiang Xinyu exclaimed "Wow!" and covered her face.

But through the gaps between his wide-open fingers, two large eyes blinked, seemingly filled with gossip.

Upon hearing a sound, the man quickly pushed Bao Beibei out and turned his face away.

Jiang Xinyu's exclamation was even louder this time, "Holy crap, who gave you permission to hug him?"

The man who had just been hugging Bao Beibei already had a bad expression, and upon hearing this, his face turned even colder.

But when he recognized the voice and looked up, he froze.

"You...why are you here?"

"Don't worry about me, what's going on? Did she force you?"

The man was clearly taken aback by the question, not understanding what Jiang Xinyu was up to.

Could it be that the person who just told you to hug him wasn't actually talking to you?

Who did you tell that to? This... Miss Beibei?

Bao Beibei, who couldn't keep up with Jiang Xinyu's train of thought, knew her best friend very well.

Upon hearing this, she knew her best friend didn't want her to harass General Wang, and immediately, indignant, she grabbed Jiang Xinyu's ear.

"You've known me since we were kids, and you're stopping me from pursuing my crush?"

Do you still consider me your eldest daughter?

Do you have another dog outside?

Sisters are like hands and feet, men are like clothes. If you have any conscience, you should wash him clean and send him to my bed!

While dodging Bao Beibei, Jiang Xinyu didn't hold back, saying, "You've known me for so many years, don't you know that I'm the kind of person who sides with family and not with reason?"

If you take a fancy to someone else, I'll snatch them away for you no matter what, but you can't go after my family!

Please leave my cousin alone, I'll find a talent show for him in the army later.

How about an exchange rate of 1 to 10?

"Godf***ing one to ten? Who wants to play this five-horse-for-six-sheep game with you?"

Bao Beibei put her hands on her hips and looked fierce. "I'd rather eat a good peach than half a basket of rotten ones."

"I've finally found one I like, you have to give him to me, even if he's not my cousin."

"Damn it, are you being reasonable?! You can't force a melon to be sweet."

"How do you know it's not sweet if you haven't even tried it? If it's not sweet, it's not sweet. As long as it quenches your thirst, that's fine."

That's my favorite.

Jiang Xinyu really wants to change her name to "Speechless" this time.

She never imagined that seeing Liu Xu again would be like this.

Why is this child's life so miserable!

Having finally escaped the mire less than two years ago, they've been targeted by wolves again.

Jiang Xinyu hugged Bao Beibei from behind and pretended to cry.

"Honey, what exactly do you like about him? I'll make him change, okay?"

"Please leave my cousin alone, he doesn't like your type."

Bao Beibei looked at Wang Huan and then at Jiang Xinyu with a suspicious expression.

"Honestly, are you two having an affair?"

This time, Liu Xu finally broke her silence. "No, Miss Beibei, please be careful with your words."

Cousin Yu and Chief Supervisor Xiao are a loving couple; you mustn't say such things that could cause misunderstandings.

"Then why did she stop me from dating you?"

While asking Wang Huan a question, Bao Beibei pinched Jiang Xinyu's cheek.

"To be honest, what makes you think he didn't like me?"

"I'm not bragging, but your cousin's gaze towards me is definitely not innocent."

Bao Beibei's bold words made Liu Xu blush and look embarrassed.

When Jiang Xinyu looked over, she didn't dare to meet her gaze and kept glancing to the side.

He had indeed been rejecting Beibei, but it seemed he had indeed fallen for her.

Beibei is beautiful and capable, with a dashing and confident demeanor, and a straightforward, courageous, and resourceful personality.

I heard that she is the Regent's adopted sister and has a noble status. As soon as she arrived in the army, she attracted the covetous eyes of all the bachelors.

He never expected that such a wonderful girl would take the initiative to express her love for him.

But the bolder and more passionate the girl was, the more timid he became.

Especially when seeing Chief Supervisor Xiao and Eunuch Dou, that deep-seated, muddy past will surface before my eyes.

Just because no one in the military knows about his past doesn't mean he can forget it.

He... doesn't deserve it!
