Chapter 146 Male Ancestor
And a few days ago.
The urgent victory news had already reached the capital of Dayue after traveling three hundred miles. For a moment, the people of the capital were in an uproar.
Everyone ran around to tell each other and cheered. Soon, the news spread throughout Dayue. Some people beat drums and gongs, set off firecrackers, and some sang and danced in great joy.
The whole country was celebrating this victory, and everyone from scholars to farmers, merchants and artisans was immersed in joy.
The families of the Zhenbei Army were also looking forward to the day when the army would return. The countless days and nights of longing and worry were now transformed into full pride and honor.
Of course, these family members naturally include fiancées who have not yet married into the family.
Upon hearing the news, Lin Xiangxiang was so happy that she almost jumped three feet high.
"Ahhh~"
The war is finally over, Xie Beiheng is coming back!
Bai and Bai Hanling looked at the people in front of them cheering and laughed with their hands covering their mouths.
Bai was naturally happy. Her husband and son had led the troops to war, and now they had not only won the battle but also returned safely. There was nothing more worth celebrating than this.
Bai Hanling covered her mouth and laughed jokingly: "Cousin, I think you are in a hurry to get married, right? Hahaha~"
Lin Xiangxiang glared at her, unwilling to be outdone, "Aren't you in a hurry to get married? I think you're more anxious than I am."
If she hadn't caught him when he went to Li Jingsheng to discuss the matter of escorting grain, she wouldn't have known that this girl and Li Jingsheng were a couple.
After asking, I found out that these two have been having a secret relationship for several years. Oh my god, she was so shocked (excited) that she could fit an egg in her mouth. It was so exciting!!!
Sure enough, when Bai Hanling heard this, her face turned red and she stammered, "I...I'm not in a hurry!"
"Besides, the mourning period hasn't ended yet!"
According to Dayue's system, when the emperor passed away, close relatives of the royal family were prohibited from marrying or holding banquets within one year, while distant relatives of the royal family and princes and ministers were prohibited from marrying or holding banquets within three months.
The Prince of Qin was the younger brother of Emperor Hong Jing, and Li Jingsheng was the nephew of Emperor Hong Jing. Naturally, they were close relatives of the royal family, so they had to wait for a year before they could get married.
Emperor Hong Jing passed away in September last year. It is now July and there are still two months before the mourning period ends!
Lin Xiangxiang burst out laughing, "You still say there's no rush? I think you're just counting the days!"
Bai Hanling blushed all the way to her ears, and begged for mercy: "Good cousin, I won't tease you anymore, please let me go!"
Lin Xiangxiang covered her mouth and laughed secretly, "See if you dare to do it next time!"
However, she was not happy because she was in a hurry to get married. Twenty-one years old was considered an "old maid" in ancient times, but in modern times it was just the marriageable age. Before meeting Xie Beiheng, she always thought that she would not get married until she was twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old.
But not being in a hurry to get married doesn't mean she doesn't miss him. She has no memory of what happened in her previous life, but in this life, they had been together for less than half a year before Xie Beiheng went off to fight.
The lovers are suddenly separated, and they can't even call or video chat. How can she not be excited when she knows he is coming back?
According to the victory report, the army is expected to arrive in the capital in two months.
With the accurate time, Lin Xiangxiang really started the countdown this time, and directly created a separate page for the "Countdown Days" app on her mobile phone.
Because I was thinking about and looking forward to this matter every day, I was often absent-minded after returning to China.
At this moment, I even get distracted during meetings.
"General Manager~General Manager, did you hear that?" Seeing that Lin Xiangxiang didn't respond for a long time, Lin Junfei reminded her.
"Hmm?" A hint of embarrassment flashed across Lin Xiangxiang's eyes.
Then, he said calmly, "Say it again!"
"Ok."
Now, Lin Xiangxiang quickly put aside the culprit in her mind and listened carefully.
Her current trading company no longer just provides food and supplies services for Dayue, but is actually operating.
And after nearly a year, she found that she had finally found her future career direction. She liked doing business and enjoyed the sense of accomplishment that came from making money.
For this purpose, she even signed up for a "corporate senior management training class". Of course, this was theoretical learning, but in practice, the eldest and second sons of the Lin family were her teachers.
……
half a month later.
It was still dark that morning.
In the capital, apart from those who got up early to set up stalls selling vegetables and open shops, there were only a few pedestrians on the streets.
Two fast horses galloped straight into the capital from outside the city. The people on the horses were wearing conical hats. Despite this, it was still obvious that they had experienced a long journey and were exhausted and tired.
After entering the city, accompanied by a series of "clattering" sounds of horse hooves, the two horses finally stopped in front of the gate of Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.
When the doorman saw the person getting off the horse, his eyes widened in shock. He thought he was still asleep, so he rubbed his eyes to make sure it was not an illusion.
I was so scared that I couldn't speak clearly, "Shi, shi... shi..."
Didn’t you say you would be back in more than a month?
Xu Chong endured the pain in his buttocks and thighs, stepped forward quickly, made a silencing gesture, and lowered his voice, "Don't make a sound."
The doorman immediately understood. Oh my God, the prince had actually left the army without permission and returned to Beijing early.
He nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, I understand. I will definitely not reveal a single word to anyone."
After Xie Beiheng entered the mansion, he went straight to Feixing Courtyard in a dusty state.
For half a month, I stayed in hotels where I could, and slept outdoors where I couldn't. I was exposed to the wind and sun all the way. Sometimes I didn't take a shower for several days, let alone shave and tidy up my appearance.
You don't need to think about what he looked like at that moment. In Xiangxiang's words, "even dogs hate him."
It was still more than an hour away from Si hour. After Si hour, he would have to wait until Zi hour to travel through time. Time was running out, so Xie Beiheng quickly asked someone to fetch some water.
Bucket after bucket of clean water went in, and bucket after bucket of black water came out. It was not until an hour later that Xie Beiheng finally cleaned himself up!
He said it was clean, but he was not satisfied. He stood in front of the bronze mirror, looking at his dark face...
Xie Beiheng frowned, feeling very nervous.
Xiangxiang...will you still like him?
Then, he quickly had breakfast. Seeing that it was almost time for breakfast, he asked Xu Chong to go to Xiaoxiang Courtyard and tell Bai that he would visit her again tomorrow, and then he hurried to the study.
I thought I would be able to see Xiangxiang soon.
Unexpectedly, when he crossed over excitedly, excitedly and full of anticipation, the scene before him made him stunned.
Where's the bedroom? Where's Xiangxiang?
Not to mention the bed, wardrobe, and computer desk, all the furniture in the entire house was gone, even the wall that originally separated the bedroom and the living room was gone. At a glance, it led straight to the door and was empty.
Xie Beiheng quickly realized that Xiangxiang must have moved in order to transport supplies.
But the problem is that there is nothing here, no clothes, no cell phone. How is he going to know where she moved to? How is he going to find her?
Suddenly, a light flashed in Xie Beiheng's mind. Grandpa and grandma lived next door, they must know.
Thinking of this, he was delighted and immediately strode out, but just as he reached the living room, he heard the sound of the door opening.
Xie Beiheng stood there, feeling very excited, thinking that Lin Xiangxiang had returned.
As a result, the next moment, a young man who was about the same age as him and looked... a little worse than him walked in.
Xie Beiheng's eyes darkened, and alarm bells rang in his heart!
The voice was sharp: "Who are you? Why do you have a portkey?"
Lin Junhe stood at the entrance, looking at the person standing in the living room, stunned in shock.
His eyes fell on the hair crown on Xie Beiheng's head, and then quickly scanned his clothes. When he realized who was in front of him, his mouth opened even wider.
It’s an ancestor! It’s a male ancestor!!!
At this moment, a voice came from outside the door, "Junhe, why haven't you pulled the things in yet?"
