A casual "hmm" fell lightly on my ears.
"Come here." Jiang Lanyue's deep voice was irresistible. I put down the fruit I bought and walked to the edge of the sofa.
The sun came out in the west today, and Jiang Lanyue not only showed up, but also asked me to get close to him.
After getting along with him for more than two years, I could still feel the chill when I stood next to him. With a heart of great reverence, I did not dare to overstep the mark and stood in front of him honestly.
"Jiang Daxian, what are your orders?" I pretended to be brisk.
Jiang Lanyue raised her eyes and glanced at me, and said angrily: "Sit down."
I was a little flattered, but I still sat next to him obediently, with a "Chu River and Han boundary" between us.
He looked sideways at the distance between us, and a thick darkness flashed across his eyes.
"You must have received General Wen's certificate of surrender." Jiang Lanyue said coldly.
"A certificate of submission..." I asked uncertainly, "Are you talking about the ghost general killing the paper man?"
"That's right." Jiang Lanyue then told me that when Zhang Wenbin returned the jade lock, he personally returned the blood jade lock to Wen Guangsheng.
He didn't say much about the process, only that after Wen Guangsheng received the blood jade lock, he immediately said he wanted to join my altar and become my soldier.
This is something I never expected!
I said I wanted to return it to General Wen that day, but Jiang Lanyue stopped me and told me not to rush.
At that time, I secretly thought, maybe he wanted to threaten General Wen into joining the army?
Sure enough, it was me who judged a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart!
Although Jiang Lanyue is a ghost fairy, she has a noble character and would normally not do such low-level things.
Instead of using blood jade locks to force people into submission, it is better to give them in person and leave roses in your hands to leave the lingering fragrance.
It turns out... General Wen is also a man who repays his kindness. This is what is called going in both directions!
After I figured it out, my admiration for Jiang Lanyue was as endless as the surging river, and my eyes were filled with stars.
"The Great Immortal is worthy of being an Great Immortal. The pattern is just different." I blew my rainbow fart with all my strength. Jiang Lanyue looked cold on the outside, but it was actually very useful.
I could clearly feel that the chill on his body was gradually fading away, and his aura became softer.
"To show his sincerity, he asked his men to deal with the paper figures who followed you." Jiang Lanyue was very satisfied with General Wen's performance. They are the most suitable troops to serve as the black flag soldiers who charge into the battle.
The next step is to determine the time to collect the troops and horses. Tomorrow is a good day. He asked me to prepare more tributes and ingots, just like when I summoned General Wen before, to pave the way for the troops and horses to be bridged.
I kept it all in mind: "No problem, I'll take care of it!"
After the explanation, Jiang Lanyue still didn't leave. I asked, "Do you have anything else?"
Jiang Lanyue glanced at the express document bag on the table: "Your things."
Only then did I notice that there was an extra paper bag containing documents on the table.
Like the last photo, no shipping information was left.
"Where is the courier?" I looked at him eagerly. Last time in the store, no one noticed the courier, so no information could be found. It would be wrong to miss it again this time.
Jiang Lanyue said calmly: "Send troops and horses to follow."
Hearing this, I breathed a sigh of relief: "You are still reliable."
I opened the document bag in front of Jiang Lanyue. Inside was a neatly folded piece of red paper. Seeing that there was no danger, I reached out and took it out. As soon as I opened it, I felt uneasy. .
This is a marriage certificate!
The marriage certificate was quite old, and the corners were frayed. I saw the big two words in the marriage certificate at a glance, and an ominous premonition came to my mind.
I couldn't wait to take a closer look, so I jumped to the signature area, and sure enough I saw my name, corresponding to the name of a strange man next to it.
"Gu Zechuan..." I stared at the name for a few seconds, but I really didn't have much of an impression.
As long as I can remember, I have never made a marriage contract with anyone, and my grandma has never mentioned it. I will never recognize this kind of marriage certificate that appears out of thin air and has an unknown origin.
Having said that, I was still scared to death when I saw this marriage letter.
"Jiang Lanyue, look..." I handed the marriage certificate to Jiang Lanyue. He just glanced at it hastily, and his whole body was filled with a world-destroying anger.
"Marriage between two surnames, a contract made together, a good marriage forever, matching with the same name..." Jiang Lanyue gritted her teeth and read the contents of the marriage letter word by word. When he looked at my name, the anger in his eyes almost threatened to overwhelm him. The red paper is lit.
I immediately expressed my position: "I don't recognize this thing. It's the 21st century, who is still marrying blindly... I don't even know Gu Zechuan, why should I marry him."
Jiang Lanyue's cheeks bulged and she said solemnly: "You have no choice but not to marry!"
He told me that the marriage letter was genuine and that my bloody fingerprints were still on my name.
I looked at those big marks. If I didn’t look carefully, I would have thought they were drops of ink!
Such a small fingerprint must be that of a baby. Did I get engaged to this person named Gu not long after I was born?
I gasped in anger, but quickly calmed down.
This is not impossible, but the strange thing is that grandma didn’t mention it at all!
"Ha! She really has a backup plan..." Jiang Lanyue raised the corners of her lips coldly.
"TA? Who is it?" I don't know whether the TA in his mouth is a boy or a girl. Does he mean the person named Gu?
Jiang Lanyue didn't answer me, but fixedly stared at the wedding date on the red paper with a pair of sinister eyes, which was the auspicious fifteenth day of the eighth month of the Guimao year.
This year is the year of Guimao, not long after my birthday, which is just the beginning of autumn, only the seventh month of the lunar calendar, and there is still one and a half months before the wedding is written on August 15th.
"Fortunately, I still have plenty of time. I'm going to find Sister Xiaoxue to check on this Gu... Gu Zechuan for me and break off the engagement with him in advance." I moved as soon as I said it. Just as I was about to get up, I was pushed back to the sofa with a strong force. superior.
"Stop looking for him, he is not alive." Jiang Lanyue reminded me to look at the birth date on the paper. Gu Zechuan's birth date actually said the fifth day of March in the first year of the Republic of China.
The first year of the Republic of China...
My jaw almost dropped in shock. Wasn't this man born in 1912? If he were to live to this day, he must be over a hundred years old.
"It means... the person who signed a marriage contract with me is not a living person, but a... ghost?!" My mind was racing, and I finally figured out why the paper man had been haunting me all these years.
But Jiang Lanyue said categorically that the paper man who was chasing me had nothing to do with this Gu Zechuan, and was another wave of people.
I asked him if he had found anything. Jiang Lanyue nodded solemnly, but still refused to disclose it to me. He only said that it was not something I should know now.
"Now that your grandma has promised you to this ghost, it is impossible to break off the engagement. You have only two options. First, marry him, and second..."
