The general's wife knows medicine

Chapter 112 That’s my son

Because Tang Peipei's wedding date was approaching, she had to put down what she was doing and prepare for the wedding wholeheartedly.

The wedding dress was designed by Tang Peipei herself, adding some modern elements to the ancient style.

The design is not complicated, but simple, generous and innovative.

Because of the tight time and heavy task, Tang Peipei chose the simplest embroidery method, beading and threading.

Tang Peipei first went to the jewelry store to buy polished pearls and red agate.

The phoenix on the wedding dress is embroidered in three-dimensional style to make it come alive.

As for some other patterns, Tang Peipei handed them over to the embroiderers at home.

Princess Qinghe acted quickly. In just half a month, she had completed most of the six ceremonies.

Especially on the day of delivering the betrothal gifts, the streets were deserted.

Princess Qinghe really gave Tang Peipei enough face.

Mu Jintang personally delivered the betrothal gifts on horseback from the General's Mansion to the Wolf Hunting Village where Tang Peipei was.

The two pairs of wild geese included in the betrothal gift were hunted by Mu Jintang herself.

When the girls in the capital heard the news, they went crazy.

There were even girls who put aside their reserve and went to the general's mansion to block Mu Jintang, asking him why he looked down on young ladies from wealthy families like them, but was so attentive to a village girl?

But who would have thought that Mu Jintang was not a man who was gentle with women at all. He just walked past the girl with an expressionless face without saying a word, as if he didn't hear the girl's question at all.

The girl was so angry that she burst into tears on the spot.

What’s even funnier is that the girls’ families actually questioned Mu Jintang in front of the emperor.

"General Mu, as the god of war of Daqing, how can you marry a village girl?"

Mu Jintang asked him back: "Who said I can't marry a village girl?"

The man choked, "Although there is no such rule, but you are the God of War, you must marry someone of equal status, right?"

Mu Jintang said: "I think my fiancée and I are a good match in terms of appearance, right?"

What is appearance?

The man looked at the others, and the others looked at each other, indicating that they didn't know what Mu Jintang was talking about.

Someone asked: "General Mu, what is this appearance?"

Mu Jintang kindly explained, "It's just about looks. My fiancée is beautiful and I'm handsome. Isn't that a good match?"

Mu Jintang's boasting really made the group of people confused. General Mu really deserved the title of handsome and elegant. However, few people had seen this legendary village girl. I wonder if she was as beautiful as General Mu said?

Everyone said that they wanted to see how pretty that village girl could be. Could it be that young ladies from noble families like them were not as pretty as a village girl?

Someone else immediately said, "General Mu, why did I hear that your fiancée seemed to have given birth to a child?"

When these words were spoken, everyone in the court was shocked. Even the emperor who was sitting on the high throne stared at Mu Jintang, waiting for his explanation.

Mu Jintang stared straight at the person who was speaking. If looks could kill, that person would have turned into a pile of bones long ago.

But that person didn't seem to be afraid of Mu Jintang, and said in a mocking tone: "General Mu, why are you doing this? Rushing to help others raise children will only damage your reputation as the God of War, Mu!"

The emperor, who was in a high position, saw this and made a judgment in his heart. He asked, "Is what Lord Bu said true?"

Mu Jintang had no choice. If he denied it in front of everyone, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor.

So in the end, I said, “It’s true.”

The emperor still took into consideration the face of Mu Jintang, the god of war. Although he felt it was ridiculous, he did not get angry.

He only said in a light tone: "General Mu, please come to my imperial study in a while."

Mu Jintang had no choice but to respond, "Yes."

I felt so angry at that talkative Lord Wu.

Lord Wu doesn’t know what’s going on either?

After Mu Jintang came back from the border, he always loved to target Mu Jintang for no reason.

Mu Jintang had asked someone to investigate before, but found that he had no connection with this person, and his targeting was harmless to Mu Jintang.

So, later on, Mu Jintang didn't take it seriously and just let it go.

This time, he reached out to Tang Peipei, which made Mu Jintang a little unbearable. He silently made a note of this Lord Wu in his heart.

The emperor saw that there was nothing else to do and prepared to leave the court.

Suddenly there was a report from outside the gate.

"Report, there is urgent news from Qianzhou!" came the voice of a young eunuch.

The eunuch in charge of the emperor stepped forward, took the memorial from the young eunuch and handed it to the emperor.

The emperor took it and examined it.

His face changed from solemn to joyful.

After reading the memorial, the emperor was overjoyed and said, "Finally it rained in Qianzhou five days ago. The trouble in Qianzhou has been solved."

When everyone heard that the drought in Qianzhou had finally ended, they were all happy.

Mu Jintang didn't feel that the crisis in Qianzhou had been resolved, but he didn't have the heart to pour cold water on everyone, so he looked a little depressed.

The emperor is so happy now that he has no time to care about Mu Jintang.

When the disaster occurred, the Fifth Prince took the initiative to apply to escort relief grain to Qianzhou.

Mu Jintang used to be able to get news from them, but in recent days, there has been no news at all.

Today, a memorial from the governor of Qianzhou suddenly appeared, saying that the drought has been alleviated.

Since it has been solved, why is there suddenly no news?

All of this revealed something unusual.

But Mu Jintang hasn't figured out the truth of the matter yet, so he can't take any unnecessary action and can only wait and see.

After the court session, Mu Jintang obediently went to the emperor's study.

Before he even stood still after entering the door, the emperor's memorial hit him at his feet.

The emperor snorted coldly: "If there hadn't been good news from Qianzhou today, I would have punished you severely." He paused and said: "You are really a good general of mine, a very good one!"

Seeing the emperor was furious, Mu Jintang smiled and said, "I know my crime and I accept the punishment."

The emperor was even more angry at his attitude, "Are you admitting your guilt?"

Mu Jintang said, "Your Majesty, please don't be so quick to get angry. You can get angry after I tell you the whole story."

The emperor was so annoyed by Mu Jintang that he lost his temper, but he still compromised and said, "Then tell me, I want to see what you can come up with."

The chief eunuch quickly handed the emperor a cup of tea. After the emperor took a sip, he felt much better.

Mu Jintang said: "Your Majesty, the child born by Tang Peipei is mine."

When these words were spoken, even the eunuch in charge was surprised.

The emperor thought it was nonsense and asked, "You said the child is yours?"

Mu Jintang said, "Yes, it still belongs to me. Your Majesty, do you still remember that two years ago, you sent me to Qianzhou to investigate a corruption case. At that time, I was tricked by someone and somehow raped a girl. Peipei later became pregnant and was reluctant to give up a life, so she gave birth to the little girl. Because of this, she was driven out of the house by her biological father, and she brought her mother and her maternal family to the capital. I met her on the way to the capital. I really like this girl and want to take responsibility for what happened before."

After hearing Mu Jintang's words, the emperor also found it incredible.

What kind of girl was this, who had the courage to give birth to this child even after being kicked out of the house? It must be said that the emperor admired such a girl and wanted to meet her.
