The two entered the border of Xihe and met all the residents, Wong Fei was also all their soldiers, "Master Gu Shanzheng and Miss Tan Jia Li are back!" yelled Zhang Fuk.
Everyone went outside from the inner house along with 20 shadow warrior Tan Jia Li who immediately jumped down from his horse to meet all his soldiers and everyone.
"Greetings Your Majesty General Tan Jia Li and Gu Shanzheng!" said everyone in unison to pay their respects.
"How are you all? Are the rebel soldiers still coming here?" tanya Tan Jia Li looked towards Wong Fei and Zhao Wei as well as Lin Tao.
"We managed to expel him along with the soldiers sent from the empire" said Lin Tao, "so that all the soldiers have joined here. General Tan Yuan Ji just got back from here. To return to the Xuchang Border," replied Lin Tao.
"Oh, thank goodness! Then, are you guys still on guard?" ask Gu Shanzheng.
"Yes, Your Majesty the General!" reply Lin Tao and everyone in unison.
"We have information that they will attack every border for some time to come. So, I ask you to be prepared and keep watch.
"Tomorrow maybe me and Jia'er will go to the Imperial Palace," Gu Shanzheng replied.
"All right, Your Majesty!" said they were in unison.
"Wow, Miss Jia'er? Um, I think they've passed through a very remarkable stage, I'm pretty sure they've had a very beautiful night!" whispered Zhao Wei.
Zhang Fuk held his chin thinking loudly, "You were right said, 'General Tan' turned into Jia'er. We'll enjoy the lanterns and festive parties in Luoyang or Wuling?" zhang Fuk's Reply.
The whispers of everyone made Tan Jia Li and Gu Shanzheng harrumphed in red,
"If you two can't keep quiet! I'll punish you tonight!" tan Jia Li shouted.
"Oh, Your Majesty General! I'm so happy if you two are really married! We would be very happy if you two got married.
"Other than the 21 black dragon shadow warriors, only General Jia'er remained unmarried!" said Lin Tao.
"It is absolutely certain that we are also only the unmarried General Gu! I think they should get married otherwise they'll be virgins and old men!" zhang Fuk's Reply.
"Juk Zhang! If you still make a sound I'll rip your mouth off!" gu Shanzheng's shout made Zhang Fuk instantly prepare.
"Ready Your Majesty! But we were so happy to look forward to the party!" he continued to make everyone laugh.
Tan Jia Li and Gu Shanzheng were just nodding their heads, "Is Xiang Lu still together with you guys?" ask Gu Shanzheng.
"Report your Majesty! Servant is still here" said Xiang Lu advancing forward.
"Oh, thank goodness you're still alive and keeping your promise! Thank you for what information you gave us.
"Till we survive and go back home. What you say is true, if they are conducting an alliance at Kunlun Mountain, I hope you continue to be here to help the Xihe border troops.
"Have you freed the village chief yet?" tan Jia Li.
"His Majesty the General. Unfortunately the Village Chief has passed away," said Lin Tao.
Everyone just looked at Tan Jia Li who entered the tent, "Your Excellency General, are you able to tame the Black Dragon from Luoyang?" zhang Fuk whispered.
"Zhang Fuk, I just left you, a few days. You've started like a woman starting to be a gossip monger so?" gu Shanzheng asked looking towards Zhang Fuk.
"Yes, it's nothing General Gu. We're very happy if you two get along, at least we're a little comfortable when we meet.
"We are very tired if we have to see the sword and boomerang must always compete let alone fight. It would be nice if the two of you were just fighting in bed!" zhang Fuk.
"Juk Zhang! My patience is running out!" gu Shanzheng's shout echoed making Zhang Fuk dart away from Gu Shanzheng.
"I'm happy for your happiness General Gu! Because life is too lonely!" zhang Fuk shouted, leaving Gu Shanzheng.
"For a long time I could go crazy being made by my members!" as Gu Shanzheng walked into his tent.
He cleaned himself soaking in a pond and thought about what Zhang Fuk said.
"They were right between the two armies all the unmarried windows were me, Liang Si, Qin Jian, Tan Jia Li, Tan Ji, the others were all married," Gu Shanzheng lamented.
The shadow of being lonely and always fighting on the battlefield and at the border made Gu Shanzheng not think of getting married.
"I was always imagined and reminded of Tan Jia Li, I think I do love him," Inner Gu Shanzheng.
"He started soaking himself in hot water and washing his body, he recalled the few weeks together with Tan Jia Li playing husband and wife and remembered the many romantic things they had been living together.
"I am so happy when I am with Tan Jia Li, I hope that she will marry me someday," Inner Gu Shanzheng.

While Tan Jia Li was still lying on his bed, he imagined Gu Shanzheng's face, "Why do I have Gu Shanzheng's face? Hadeh, this goddamn face really just disturbs my sleep!" inner Tan Jia Li.
He moved from his bed and shot up to the roof of the barracks and looked around the defensive border of the Xihe fortress, "I've been back here many times, but I've never been with Gu Shanzheng.
"The old generals and Emperor Liu Fei always separated us, because we always fought. However, only Jang Min unites us.
"I don't know what he was thinking, he always understood what he was thinking even he always understood the power that everyone had," Inner Tan Jia Li.
He tries to understand what Jang Min is thinking when he brings them together. Tan Jia Li looked at Gu Shanzheng, standing gazing at the vast plains before them and the wilderness separating Xihe and the Mongols.
Both looked forward towards the Mongol border, both hoping that war would never happen. However, both of them know that it will never be inevitable.
"If Qin Chai Xi, Chien Fu, and Shan Shi'er were still alive then peace would never be achieved in Donglang Empire!" both understand everything.
The two looked at each other, "Hi!" both said with a wave of their hands.
Gu Shanzheng darted closer towards Tan Jia Li, "I thought you were asleep?" gu Shanzheng asked looking towards the owner of his heart.
