Chapter 6
Chapter 6 — Crown Prince Dang Co gave my kiss to the Great General. I gratefully agreed
My voice penetrates the scarf and clearly comes out.
“Start the palanquin!”
A shout rang out. The black armored cavalry immediately divided into two rows on both sides, escorting my palanquin and the Tham family's dowry team in the middle. Dozens of other large chests also joined the team. The entire wedding procession instantly became majestic and majestic, with an imposing aura. I was supported by my mother, and I slowly climbed onto the palanquin. The palanquin was lifted extremely firmly. Through the gap in the palanquin curtain, we see the eyes of both surprise and awe of the people on both sides of the long road. Seeing Hoang Thi Lang's soulless face. At the corner of the street, at the window of the second floor of a restaurant, I saw a figure wearing blue civilian clothes with a pale face. Tieu Thua Trach. Finally he still came. He wanted to see me humiliated with his own eyes. As a result, he saw himself being counterattacked. The corner of my lips curled slightly. This is just the beginning. The journey to the North lasted a full month. There were black armor escorts along the way, so the journey was extremely smooth. It's just that the further north you go, the colder the weather gets, and the surrounding scenery becomes more desolate and desolate. Finally, on the seventh day of the tenth month, which was also the day before my birthday, we arrived at Yen Chau city - the major town of Bac Cuong. Tran Bac General's Palace is located in the most central position in the city. The architectural style of the palace is completely different from the sophistication and elegance of the capital. Carrying a strong, rough aura. In front of the palace gate, there were no hanging lights with red flowers, only two teams of guards holding halberds stood straight, with solemn expressions. I stepped down from the palanquin, supported by the lady, passed the coal basin, and entered the general's palace. The palace is very large, but also very... empty. There weren't many servants, everywhere seemed lonely and coldly quiet. We were taken directly to the new room. Lady Hi said a few words of good wishes and then left. I was the only one left in the room. I sat on the edge of the bed with a bright red blanket, waiting quietly. Waiting for the husband in name that I have never met. I don't know how long I waited. The sky outside the window gradually darkened. The red candlelight swayed slightly in the air. Finally, a series of steady footsteps sounded from outside the door. With a creak, the door was pushed open. A stream of cold air mixed with the faint smell of alcohol poured in. We can feel that person standing at the door, looking at us. I did not move, nor did I speak. A moment later, he walked in. The footsteps stopped in front of me. A hand with clear joints, carrying a thin layer of callouses, gently lifted my towel. Light immediately rushed in. I finally got a clear look at my nominal husband —— Tan Kieu. He is very tall. Even taller than we imagined. He was wearing the same bright red outfit, but there was no trace of the bridegroom's joy. His five senses are deep and clear, as if carved with a knife and hammer. A faint scar stretched from his left eyebrow bone to the corner of his eye. Not only did it not ruin his appearance, but on the contrary, it made him even more heroic and cold. sharp. His eyes were very deep. Like an ancient well. Just like a cold star in the winter sky. Right now, those eyes are evaluating me without blinking once. There is no magic. There is no desire. There is only calm and investigation. He is the man in the rumor - fierce and murderous, killing two generations of wives.
“Shen Yuehua?”
He opened his mouth. His voice was low and a little hoarse, like old wine. I nodded slightly, directly meeting his eyes. He looked at me for a long time, then turned around and walked to the table, pouring himself a cup of tea.
“We already know what happened in the capital.”
He took a sip of tea and gently opened his mouth.
“You did very well.”
That statement is completely different from what a groom would say to his wife. On the contrary, it is more like a reward from a superior to a subordinate.
“The general is too complimentary.”
I also stood up, walked over and sat down opposite him.
“I'm just taking back what belongs to me.”
“What belongs to you is more than just that.”
