The General Wouldn't Dare, Right?

When they fought in the Vermilion Bird Kingdom, they obtained a piece of black jade that belonged to the Vermilion Bird Crown Prince.
The Vermilion Bird Crown Prince was a sentimental person. For the sake of a commoner woman, he disobeyed the Vermilion Bird Emperor and even wanted to give up his position as the crown prince.
Everyone said that he was like this because of that black jade.
That piece of jade was the treasure of the Vermilion Bird royal family. Every prince who gave it to his beloved ended up tragic.
Legend has it that giving it to the person you love means that you have already decided on this person as your life partner. God will hear the prayers of the person who gave the jade and send blessings to this person.
The person who gives the jade will always be loyal to and love the person who he gives it. He will be happy for her and worried for her.
After General Xie brought the jade home, the emperor found it intriguing and teased him. General Xie was already old and should be married. If not, he should give it away as a gift.
The Xie family always kept that piece of jade.
Xie Cheng had always scoffed.
If he gave it away, he would have to be with a woman for the rest of his life. Was this considered a blessing?
The people of the Vermilion Bird kingdom were quite funny.
Seeing that Xie Cheng was silent, Shuo Feng continued to add fuel to the fire. "No way, General, don't tell me you don't dare to give it away?"
"I thought you didn't believe in these things?"
"Don't tell me you're afraid of being tied up after you send them out?"
Xie Cheng looked up. His small eyes were an intense black and carried a very faint deterrence.
Shuo Feng immediately did not dare to be rash. He put away his cheeky expression and asked respectfully, "Then what do you think is appropriate, General?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly added without waiting for Xie Cheng to reply, "It's just that we don't interact much with women. I've never done this before, so I don't know what to give."
Although Xie Cheng had a sister, he was an elder brother without romantic feelings. When giving his sister gifts, he never knew how to choose carefully. He would only ask Eleven and the others to send all the rewards from His Majesty to Xie Min and Xie Yao and let them pick for themselves.
Not to mention Shuo Feng, even Eleven, who was always by his side, had never given a woman anything.
Xie Cheng lowered his eyes again. He leaned there and slowly closed his eyes. His tone was lazy and carried a trace of sleepiness. "Do as you see fit."
Did he think he would know if he did not know what to give?
Shuo Feng looked at him as if he was about to fall asleep.
He just didn't know what to say.
Other Young Masters in Yandu of the same age as the General were getting married already, but the General had no plans of getting married!
It was not in vain that he was not married yet!
Shuo Feng glanced at him and put away the bowls and chopsticks. He moved the small table to the side and left with his things.

In the afternoon, at 5 pm.
Shuo Feng finally finished shopping. Following the General's instructions, he went to a famous shop in the capital to buy the most fashionable satin, rouge, and jewelry that young women liked and brought them back.
When he entered with his bags, Eleven had already returned. There was another person on the soft couch.
That person wore a moon-white brocade robe with light blue cloud patterns embroidered on the cuffs. There was a medication box beside him, and he was looking at Xie Cheng's legs.
"Young Master Fu is here," Shuo Feng said as he put away his bags.
This Young Master Fu's name was Fu Ling. He was the youngest son of Imperial Physician Fu from the Imperial Hospital. His medical skills were outstanding, and he had been on good terms with his general since he was young.
He loved to travel around, so he rarely saw him. In the past, when he saw him, it was always the end of the year. He did not expect him to come back at this time. It was a pleasant surprise.
