"The Auxiliary King, I've been missing for a long time..."

"Military Governor, you are still in awesome, I am very pleased..."

After receiving the news, Liu Ce quickly led the team outside the city gate to welcome Mengluo's wedding.

When Liu Ce and Tuoba Yuhai met, both sides greeted each other very politely for a while, and then they met Hua Buhuchi and Tuoba Si. Especially when they saw Suquetai and Mu Li, they both bowed sincerely to Liu Ce to express the kindness of Liu Ce's rescue of Tuoba Yuhai several months ago.

Officials from both sides contacted each other and knew each other, the Mengluo bride-sending team entered Weiyuan City together.

"I haven't seen each other for a year, Weiyuan City has changed again. Military Governor, you have a good attitude towards governing the city. I really admire you very much!"

Walking side by side with Liu Ce on the repaired street, Tuoba Yuhai sighed sincerely.

Liu Ce was very calm about Tuoba Yuhai's compliment: "I just do my best to do my duty, and I am not allowed to praise the regent..."

Tuoba Yuhai nodded and admired his son-in-law very much.

In fact, Tuoba Yuhai also secretly ordered people to investigate Liu Ce's character. From the known information, it was concluded that Liu Ce was not a person who was arrogant and complacent because of his power. Although he acted a little extreme, this fully demonstrated that he was a person with a temperament.

Of course, more importantly, Liu Ce's private life is very clean and he treats his wives very lovingly and relaxed, which allows him to entrust Tuoba Xue to Liu Ce with confidence.

The team slowly advanced to the gate of the Military Affairs Office. Liu Ce looked at the lie-in-arms who had already been waiting at the door. Soon they forced red envelopes to the Monroe people who were accompanying him. Even the lowly groom and slaves were all assigned one.

"Mr. Military Governor, this is..." Tuoba Yuhai held a red envelope in his hand and looked at Liu Ce with a little doubt. In his impression, the etiquette of the Central Plains seemed to have not been like this.

Liu Ceze smiled and said, "On the day of this military governor's great joy, all those involved in the wedding affairs, no matter who he is, can get a gift.

This military governor knows that you, Monroe, are relatively light on gold and silver, so they are all tickets from the Military Governor's Office. With this ticket, you can exchange any warehouse under the rule of this military governor, including the new city outside the Great Wall..."

Tuoba Hongye nodded and said, "Mr. Military Governor, you really have the intention..."

After saying that, he looked back at Mu Li, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid some drunkards are so happy that they are so proud..."

"Where are there..." Liu Ce smiled and turned over and dismounted with everyone. "The auxiliary king has worked hard all the way, so why not go into the house to rest first. This military supervisor has prepared delicious wine and delicacies to welcome you..."

Tuoba Yuhai said generously: "Okay, since the military governor invited me, how could I refuse? Please..."

"please……"

At the invitation of Liu Ce, everyone quickly entered the Military Affairs Office's pick-up hall...

After Liu Ce and Tuoba Yuhai took their seats in the hall, Tuoba Si delivered a gift list to Liu Ce: "Mr. Military Governor, this is the gift for our Princess Mengluo's dowry. I'll read it to you?"

Liu Ce originally wanted to refuse, but felt it was completely unnecessary, but when he saw Wei Ying sitting not far away, he immediately changed his mind and said to Tuoba Si: "Then it's a labor..."

Seeing that Liu Ce did not refuse, Tuoba Si immediately stood up straight, then opened the gift post and said loudly: "The gift for the princess to get married is as follows.

One thousand East beads, five thousand kilograms of gold, one hundred thousand kilograms of silver, twelve pairs of purple jade jade, 30,000 Sassanthemum gold coins, one pair of Tianshan snow lotus, two thousand sheep, five thousand dairy cows, eight thousand oxen, eighty stones of pepper, three thousand good horses in the Western Regions, one thousand camels, one thousand goshawks, one pair of white deer, one hundred white tiger skins, and rhino horns…”

The amount that Tuoba Si reported was really scary, much beyond Liu Ce's expectations. He never expected that Princess Monroe's dowry would be so generous, making him doubt his life.

Gold and silver are easy to say, but the sheep and cows sent are all urgently needed for the development of animal husbandry in the eight provinces of Northland, especially the sheep, plowing ox, and dairy cows. They are all treasures, which are crucial factors for the recovery of the agricultural economy and the development of industry in the Northland.

After Tuoba Si finally finished reporting the gifts on the gift post, the entire reception hall was silent. Many local gentry completely subverted their understanding of the outside world from this gift list. Lovers would be so rich...

Wei Ying's face became even more ugly after listening to Tuoba Si's reading of this gift list, and she felt a little restless.

Because she knew very well that this was the way the Monroeans showed Liu Ce good, but the royal family was absolutely poor now and could not get these things...

Wei Ying really wanted to pull Liu Ce on her side. Although she knew that Liu Ce was not the kind of person who was greedy for money, what bargaining chips and reasons could she have to please this famous general? Even all the cost she has now is thanks to Liu Ce. What should she do if he suddenly turned against him and drove him out?

Wei Ying was very nervous, and there was another person who was as nervous as him, that was Tuoba Xue.

Although Tuoba Xue promised to break off contact with Murong Bao, it was impossible to forget him all at once. Although she was very grateful to Liu Ce for guiding her and saving Murong Bao from the fate of being distant from her body and head, she did not hate Liu Ce, the benefactor who saved her father.

But when she asked her to accept this strange husband at once, Tuoba Xue asked herself that she was not mentally prepared.

To be honest, she was not familiar with Liu Ce at all and knew nothing about his preferences. Can she live a harmonious life with him in the future?

When Tuoba Xue thought of spending her whole life with a strange man in a strange environment, she felt like she was about to suffocate.

After Tuoba Si submitted the gift form to Liu Ce, Liu Ce opened it and looked at it a few times, then said to Tuoba Yuhai in confusion: "Assistant King, this gift seems to be a bit too heavy, right?"

Tuoba Si said first: "Mr. Military Governor, I'm not to hide it. This gift was added by the Holy Emperor, five times more than before, just because you saved the Auxiliary King, and the Holy Emperor thanked you..."

Liu Ce shook his head and said, "Prime Minister, you Holy Emperor is so polite. There is an alliance agreement between your country and our military governor. If your country is in trouble, how can this military governor stand by and watch?"

"Please accept the military governor, this is also the Holy Emperor's wishes..." Tuoba Yuhai said, "If we don't accept it, we can't go back and explain to the Holy Emperor..."

After hearing Tuoba Yuhai say this, Liu Ce naturally accepted it with peace of mind. In fact, he was just polite greetings. Since he had given all the meat to his mouth, how could he not eat it?

"The military governor accepted it with a smile..." Liu Ce immediately handed the gift list to the ceremony officer and quietly winked at him, meaning that he must go and count it clearly.

Afterwards, both sides had lunch together, and Liu Ce did not hide his own personal information. The Far East special dishes he had traveled through time were developed and promoted by Song Yanran, the magical chef, and soon conquered the bold men on the grassland.

After the meal, the two sides negotiated for a while, and Liu Ce arranged for the messenger of Mengluo to go to the prepared restaurant to rest and prepare for tomorrow's wedding ceremony.

...

In Wei Ying's room, the princess was staring at herself in the mirror. She was in a daze at this moment. She was in a mess. I really didn't know if there was any reason to stop the marriage between Liu Ce and the Monroe people.

"Emperor niece, what's wrong with you?" At this time, Wei Ji rubbed his hands and entered the house, sat casually on the chair in the outer room, and poured a cup of tea on his own.

Wei Ying looked back at Wei Ji, shook his head and said, "I am really useless. I watched Liu Ce and the Mengluo people marry each other but were unable to stop me..."

As if thinking of something wronged, the "golden beans" in Wei Ying's eyes fell down uncontrollably.

Wei Ji heard this, but he was distracted: "What should I do? If you like the military governor, if you like it, go and tell him. Do you dare to tell me for you..."

"Uncle Wang should not talk nonsense, where can I have it?" Wei Ying said in his last sentence very unconfident, and his voice was particularly light.

Wei Ji took a sip of tea, lightly tapped the table with his fingers, and suddenly said with a serious look on his face: "Ying'er, to be honest, you are twenty years old, and you should consider your lifelong affairs. When your Uncle Wang and your father are as old as you, your children will make soy sauce..."

"Uncle Wang, why are you suddenly..."

"Don't interrupt, listen to me finish my words..."

Wei Ji hurriedly reached out to stop Wei Ying and continued, "I know what you are thinking, the Wei family, the country, right?

But you have to know that you are a daughter after all, and your own abilities are limited. The cycle of dynasty is a necessary law, and it is not something that any one of you and me can reverse the situation at will.

Compared to these, Uncle Wang just wants you to live happily. I only ask you one question, what if you stay by the military governor in the past few years than you are in the palace?”

Wei Ying was speechless when she heard this, and finally nodded slightly to admit that she had indeed lived a more fulfilling life in the past few years than in the palace.

Wei Ji rubbed his hands and continued to preach: "Since you also admit that you have lived a good life under the rule of the Military Supervisor, why bother to worry about the affairs in the palace?

Under the rule of the Military Supervisor, you can express your opinions at will without worrying about being accused of women and being questioned by politics, and you don’t have to worry about being treated differently by surprise.

Under his rule, you can get rid of many constraints and live more freely. You can walk around in all provinces under the rule of the Military Governor.

I dare to ask if you were in the capital, would you still be so indulgent and free? Are you going to be bound by those old customs and habits again?”

Wei Ying nodded mutely, as if she understood Wei Ji's intention to say these words to him.

Wei Ji touched his hair and then continued, "Actually, after saying so much, I want to remind you that since you don't want to miss some things, you have to hold on to them. As for those irrelevant things, you will abandon them.

The country of Great Zhou has nothing to do with you today. You should be glad that the emperor asked you to follow the military governor to the Far East. This may be the smartest decision he has made in his life.

It can help you find a reliable harbor in this troubled world and stop all the storms for you. Even if that day really comes, Wei Ying is still Wei Ying, and will not suffer inhuman hardships because of Princess Yiyang..."

Wei Ying was silent. For the first time, she discovered that Uncle Wang, who completely ignored royal etiquette, was actually smarter than anyone else and had already seen through everything.

What he did was not only to enjoy his own happiness, but to find a place to shelter when his Wei clan encountered unprecedented changes in the future.

Wei Ji has a very rare and rare resource in the royal family...

That is, family affection...
