As Minister of War, Gao Lin was a high-ranking official in the court.
If not born into a family of officials for generations or belonging to a prominent family in the Beichen Kingdom, given High Forest and Regent King's relationship, I'm afraid he would have been crushed by Beichen Han long ago.
"Having seen the Lord and Lady, this humble servant will go inform Master Gao of their arrival."
Gao Fu's guards saw Bei Chen Yi and Yun An An alight from their carriage. They stepped forward a few paces, bowed, and were about to return to the mansion to report.
"No need, we can just browse around."
Yun An'an called out to the guards of Gao Fu, and before they could speak, she took Bei Chen Yi's hand and stepped into Gao Fu.
"Gao Lin's aesthetics... are truly unique."
As the saying goes, people's tastes reflect their character.
Gao Fu's residence, among the many official mansions in Kyoto, was not particularly luxurious nor did it possess the scholarly refinement one might expect. Instead, it had a number of...rather inexplicable things.
For example, there are stones on the fake mountain that look like pork belly.
"Uncle, look~ "
Yun An'an puckered her lips and looked towards the pavilion behind the artificial mountain. Gao Lin was sitting beside Qing'er, gently stirring the contents of a bowl and feeding Qing'er.
"I told you Gao Lin had ill intentions, look at the lustful gleam in his eyes."
Yun An'an leaned against her shoulders, a sneer on her face.
In her memory, Gao Pangpang was not a good person. She had complained about her several times, causing her to be brought back to Yiwangfu by Beichen Yi. Now she's setting her sights on Qing'er, no way!
In the pavilion, Gao Lin finished feeding the porridge and then peeled an orange, carefully extracting every bit of pith.
"The oranges are very sweet, Qing'er, try one."
He said it was just a taste, but the orange segments were already in Qing'er girl's mouth, regardless of whether she wanted to eat them or not.
Not only that, the calloused hands were rather clumsy and touched Miss Qing'er's cheek.
In Yun An'an's view, Gao Lin should have been sentenced to death.
"Gao Gege."
The orange in her mouth was sweet and juicy. Qing'er lowered her head, a blush creeping onto her cheeks.
"Thank you, Gao Gege, for taking care of me this time. Qing'er is deeply grateful."
Looking at Qing'er's shy appearance, the rough man Gao Lin grinned with his big teeth, and for a moment, he was captivated.
"Qing'er, don't say that. A mere warrior like me doesn't know how to properly attend to a lady. If there's anything I've done poorly, just tell me."
Perhaps because she had been sitting for too long, Qing'er got up, but the corner of her skirt was stepped on by Gao Lin. As a result, when she stood up, her body tilted and she fell into Gao Lin's arms.
As beautiful as she was, the sight of her left Gao Lin speechless and at a loss. He kept holding onto Qing'er one moment and letting go the next, then repeating the action again and again.
"
Cowardly! Shameless! Despicable!
"
The distance was a bit too far, Yun'anan couldn't hear what the two were saying. However, judging from Gao Lin's actions, the conversation between the two must have been like this.
Ching'er said, "Gao Fatty, don't keep me. I won't marry you," and then she lowered her head, her face filled with anger and suppressed resentment.
Gao Lin said, "Little lady, you eat and drink from me like this and just leave No way, hehehe~
"
Qinger said, "Gao Fatty, you mustn't be too cruel. Even if I die, I will leave Gao's mansion." Saying that, she got up and wanted to leave.
Gao Lin saw this and stomped on Qing'er's skirt with one foot, his smile becoming even more lewd as he said, "Little lady, if you want to leave, you have to ask me Gao Lin for permission first. Come here and give me a hug."
The conversation Yunan imagined between the two people was vastly different from their actual conversation.
One look at the expression on my little wife's face, she looked like she wanted to hack Gao Lin into five pieces. I knew An'er had overthought things.
"Gāo Lín, let go of Qíng'ěr!"
The righteous messenger descended from the heavens, Yun An'an stomping one foot on Gao Lin's waist.
If Gao Lin hadn't been trained, he would have probably been broken in half and unable to take care of himself.
"Fatso, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You want to make a move on Young Miss Qing, but you have to ask this Princess for permission first."
Gao Lin, who had been kicked by Yun An'an, took half a day to recover his breath. He supported his waist, and the man in his twenties and thirties was about to cry.
"May I ask, Your Highness, did I steal your money or do something else to warrant such a ruthless attack"
This kick nearly sent him to the underworld.
You haven't robbed this Princess of her money, but this Princess has long seen through your ill intentions towards Miss Qing'er.
"Your Highness, as clear as day, Gao has devoted his heart to Miss Qing'er. His feelings are genuine and without any pretense whatsoever. Furthermore, Miss Qing'er has also agreed to marry him."
Gao Lin was deeply wronged. How could he feel like a heinous criminal in Yun An An's eyes
Upon hearing Gao Lin's words, Yun Anan turned her head.
"Qinger, if you're being forced to do something, just blink your eyes. As long as you don't consent, even the Jade Emperor himself couldn't force you."
"The princess consort... Qing'er agreed to Gao's proposal."
Pffft—
Yun An was so startled that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Her phoenix eyes kept flitting between Gao Lin and Qing'er.
Gao Lin is not quite forty, he's somewhere between twenty-seven and thirty, while Qing'er is only sixteen or seventeen years old.
"Qing'er, may I ask you a very serious question"
"Your Majesty, Princess Yi, surely Qing'er knows everything and will tell you all about it."e boss in black counts down.Three."Two.""One."As one word fell, the man in black drew his sword and slashed at someone's neck.As the man's head was about to fall, with a sudden bang, Yun An'an's long...
