Wu Nian never denied that he was a womanizer.
Isn't it a joke for a man who has a wife and concubines to say that he is innocent?
But to be honest, Wu Nian had never thought about Wei Ru before this. Although Wei Ru is really beautiful and has a good figure. She is Wei Changqing's daughter, and Wei Changqing is kind to him.
Wu Nian respected Wei Changqing.
His feelings for Wei Ru were like a brother caring for his sister. Although he is very incompetent.
Wei Ru should have continued to wear skirts and be the eldest lady of the Wei family. But she put on armor, held a harness, rode a horse, and galloped between the two formations. She was known as the "Rouge Tiger".
Powerful in Liaodong.
She was scarred and bleeding, her vitality was severely damaged, and she was now on the verge of death.
But before that, the window paper was punctured. Although the fool is back, we can't pretend that nothing happened.
And from a man's perspective, she's really beautiful. Exquisite appearance, tall and plump figure.
She said she was shameless and wanted a status before she died.
She is indeed shameless.
But Wu Nian couldn't think like that. Didn't he agree to her last request before she died?
Wu Nian was in trouble again.
Wei Ru is the legitimate daughter of the Wei family, if you take her as your concubine. He does not believe in ghosts and gods, nor does he believe in an afterlife.
But thinking of General Wei Changqing, how could he not feel guilty?
He entrusted his daughter to himself, but he guarded her and made her a concubine.
Wu Nian is not so shameless.
After Wu Nian struggled internally for a long time, he raised his head and looked at Wei Ru. Wei Ru's breathing became more rapid, and a pair of small hands under the quilt were tightly clasped together.
She knows that success or failure lies in the next moment.
Wu Nian stretched out his right hand and touched her face. Despite her paleness, her face was not very white. There is no such thing as a white face among generals.
But her skin was smooth, like mutton fat and jade.
Wei Ru knew the answer immediately, his eyebrows lit up with joy, he exhaled a long breath, and raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a cheerful smile.
It doesn't matter if you are shameless or if you are a concubine.
Before I died, I finally got what I wanted.
Wu Nian said: "Okay. I promise you. But I will not take you as my concubine. When I become king, I will take you as my concubine. This way, I will not disgrace the Wei family's reputation."
"But you said that if you die, you want to be buried in my family's ancestral grave. Then forget it. If you die, just be buried in the Wei family's ancestral grave."
"You must live. Live so that we can live and die together."
Wu Nian's words were like iron and stone colliding, full of power and decisiveness.
And very domineering.
After hearing this, Wei Ru laughed happily, stretched out a pair of slightly cool hands from the thin quilt, held Wu Nian's big hand, and said, "Brother Wu, don't worry. I will live well."
"Yeah." Wu Nian finally laughed and nodded lightly.
It seemed that this short period of time consumed all Wei Ru's energy. She quickly closed her eyes and said weakly: "Brother. I want to sleep for a while."
"Go to sleep." Wu Nian pulled the thin quilt for her and said softly.
Wei Ru didn't say anything more.
After Wu Nian sat in front of her bed for a long time, he stood up, left the inner room, and let Wei Ru's female soldiers in.
Wu Nian came to the door of the room and saw Wei Hong.
Wei Hong did not ask what Wu Nian and Wei Ru had said.
After Wu Nian thought for a while, he asked Wei Hong: "Wei Qianhu. Is there an ancestral hall in this mansion? I want to burn incense to General Wei Changqing."
"Yes." Wei Hong nodded immediately, bent down, and led the way. Wu Nian followed closely behind, and the two came to an ancestral hall.
There are some disabled veterans who look after this ancestral hall.
Inside the ancestral hall. The smoke lingers and the incense never goes out. There are not only the tablets of Wei Changqing, but also the tablets of many ancestors of the Wei family, which are densely packed.
Wei Hong lit the incense and bent over and handed it to Wu Nian. Wu Nian reached out and took the incense, bowed three times to Wei Changqing's tablet, then walked up and put the incense on the incense burner.
"Old General Wei. Although I feel sorry for you, but a true man keeps his promise. I will not take back my words. If your daughter survives, I will marry her and take good care of her."
"I don't believe in ghosts and gods, and I won't ask you to protect her."
"But I believe she will survive."
Wu Nian stood in front of the tablets of Wei Changqing and Wei family ancestors for a long time before turning and leaving the ancestral hall. After that, he lived in this mansion.
He doesn't care about specific things.
County government.
Wei Ru recognized Jiang Hu's contribution and gave him the official position of acting county magistrate. Wu Nian also agreed and made Jiang Hu a regular employee.
Only one time. Wu Nian accepted Jiang Hu's invitation and met with all the officials, big and small, in Haitian County.
As for the army, Wu Nian left it to Wei Hong.
Wei Hong recruited his own troops to replenish the lost soldiers.
The newly recruited soldiers naturally have no fighting ability. But as long as they train diligently, the Wei army will be able to regain its combat effectiveness sooner or later.
The same goes for the other captains of the various departments.
Now that Fuhan General's Mansion occupies the land of the three mansions, its potential has been relatively expanded. Wu Nian was no longer the fortress owner, county magistrate, or prefect he had been before, but a true general supporting the Han Dynasty.
He is very powerful now, very, very powerful.
I don’t know if it’s because of the agreement.
Wei Ru's illness improved little by little after that. Although good things are unpleasant, we are determined to develop in a good direction.
It conforms to a medical saying.
The disease comes like a mountain falling, and the disease goes away like a thread spinning.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed. Wei Ru walked out of his bedroom for the first time and went to the pavilion in the backyard to enjoy the shade.
Wu Nian accompanied her.
Although her little face is still unhealthy white, it is not as scary as before.
Wu Nian really thought she was going to die before.
but.
Wei Ru, who was gradually getting better, was not as bold as before his death. The two sat together on a round stool, separated by the table.
Wei Ru would lower his head shyly from time to time.
On the contrary, Wu Nian was generous and laughed at him. He couldn't help but stood up, sat down next to her, reached out and grabbed her little hand, and said: "A promise is a promise. You and I know it. Once a word is made, it is hard to keep it."
"It's too late for you to regret."
"I don't regret it." Wei Ru quickly shook his head and said.
"Since you don't regret it, then just be natural. You are Rouge Tiger." Wu Nian said with a smile.
"Yeah." Wei Ru hummed, raised his head to look at Wu Nian, but quickly lowered his head shyly.
She really couldn't believe how she could say such shameless words at that time.
It's so embarrassing.
Too embarrassed to see anyone.
But also very happy.
He said he would marry me as his concubine.
whee.
"Brother. When will you go back to Jiang County?" Wei Ru shook his head gently, shook away the distracting thoughts, raised his head, and asked softly.
