Rebirth of a Star General

Chapter 106 Winter Snow

That night, He Yan was soaked all over his body, so when he went back, he fetched water again, took a shower in the room, and put on dry clothes before giving up. Xiao Jue's cloak was wet by her, so He Yan went to Shen Muxue to find some pancreatic soap to wash it off, and hung it with a rope on a branch outside the door, intending to dry it and send it back to him.

The tossing is a little tossing, but the kindness of the teachers of Liangzhouwei is not completely in vain. When he woke up the next day, He Yan only felt comfortable all over, and it was warm in the morning.

Hot springs can cure diseases, but it is not nonsense.

She quickly got up to freshen up, ran in time, and when she was having dinner, she saw the people from the Frontier Battalion training in the martial arts field.

Lei Hou stood at the front, and the forward battalion and the ordinary recruits were already distinguished by their clothes. Ordinary recruits only have two strong suits, one red and one black. The spring and summer are single clothes, and the autumn and winter are sewed with thin cotton in the interlayer. Jinzhuang has no other decorations except for the belt, and the tailoring does not fit well. If it is large, roll up a sleeve. For someone with a fatter body like Hong Shan, he will tighten the clothes tightly, as if it will split in the next moment.

The people in the forward camp wore dark blue riding uniforms, the fabric was much finer than theirs, and it looked very fit. This group of people are all one thousand outstanding people selected from the Liangzhou Guards.

Lei Hou was born tall and outstanding, and the riding uniform was worn on him as if it was tailor-made for him. Yesterday, I heard from the coaches that he performed very well in the forward camp. Probably for this reason, the coach made him stand at the forefront of the team, so he was majestic and eye-catching.

He Yan was fascinated by it. He walked behind Hong Shan indifferently. Seeing this scene, he patted him on the shoulder: "Why, do you feel uncomfortable?"

"No," He Yan said, "I just think that the clothes of Qianfeng Camp really look much better than our clothes."

"More than clothes?" Wheat heard the words and interjected: "I heard that they eat better than us. They can get two more steamed buns and meat porridge every day."

"Okay, don't say a few words," Hong Shan interrupted Mai's babble, "Didn't you see that Brother Ahe is bothering you?"

He Yan: "I'm not jealous of him."

"That's right," Wheat said, afraid that He Yan would be sad, "He's a defeated general under Brother A He, what's so great about him?"

He Yan smiled, and was about to speak, when Lei Hou seemed to notice their gaze, and when he turned his head, he saw He Yan was taken aback for a while, but he quickly averted his gaze and concentrated on training.

"This kid is quite crazy?" Hong Shan sighed, "It's incredible."

He Yan didn't say anything, and continued to stand in place, watching Lei Hou train for a while, until Liang Ping urged them to hurry over, and He Yan gave up.

If those coaches said, Lei Hou's pace is also very good, agile and flexible, and he really deserves to be a member of the forward battalion. It's just that He Yan still remembered that when she was fighting for the flag on Baiyue Mountain many days ago, she had fought against Leihou. At that time, the situation was urgent, she felt a little unnatural, and she couldn't think about it. Later, she forgot about it. Seeing Lei Hou today brought back memories of the fight that day.

But she still couldn't come up with a result.

Where is it unnatural?

Liang Ping's fierceness, He Yan got up and went to the weapon rack to get a gun, thinking that it was all in Liangzhou Wei anyway, it was really not good, look for an opportunity in a few days, and then fight Leihou again.

It's just that before He Yan and Lei Hou meet, they waited for the news that Xiao Jue was leaving.

Liangzhou Wei received an urgent report that the people outside Zhangtai City, thousands of miles away from Liangzhou, have been frequently harassed by the Uto people. As soon as the Uto people arrived, they would grab money and food, bullying men and women. The prime minister of Zhangtai County was so miserable that he had to ask Xiao Jue for help. Ask Xiao Jue to lead the troops to expel these Uto people.

As early as when the late emperor was on the throne, the Utuo Kingdom bowed its head to the Great Wei and paid tribute every year. It's just that since His Majesty came to the throne, the Uto people have been eager to move. After the Nanman and Xiqiang rebellions were quelled one after another, the Uto people also stopped for a while. It's just that I don't know why it has intensified recently, and dared to directly harass the people at the border.

His Majesty has a gracious temperament, and turns a blind eye to the actions of the Uto people. In addition, there is a master and faction of Xu Xiang's faction in the court, and the generals next to him do not dare to accept this hot potato. Probably because of this, the prime minister of Zhangtai County turned to Xiao Jue of Liangzhou for help.

"Commander, when will you leave?" The instructors were all standing in Xiao Jue's room, and He Yan was sitting in the place where Cheng Lisu usually wrote. But there is nothing to hide about this matter. It takes one month to come and go between Zhangtai and Xiao Jue, and people will always notice when Xiao Jue is not there.

"tomorrow."

"It's so early?" Liang Ping was surprised, "but the army hasn't had time to talk to the forward battalion..."

"No," Xiao Jue said, "I don't plan to bring them."

The coaches looked at each other in dismay, but He Yan was not surprised. The recruits of Liangzhou Guard, even though they had been training for more than half a year, had never been on the battlefield. , is not the best policy. It consumes too much, and the Uto people are cunning and ferocious, and the recruits may not be opponents. After much deliberation, Xiao Jue's Nanfu soldiers are the most suitable.

Xiao Jue brought the recruits to Liangzhou, and the Nanfu soldiers should be stationed elsewhere. The military power is in his hands, so he can justifiably lead the troops forward. If he gets a good news, His Majesty will be happy and reward him with something, and she will be able to follow him.

Thinking of this, he nodded secretly, feeling that Xiao Jue's decision was really good.

He also explained the things that the coaches need to pay attention to in the next day. In the middle of the night, all the talents left. Xiao Jue stood up from the table, walked to the middle door, stretched out his hand to lock the door, but was blocked from behind, He Yan's head stuck out from behind the door.

"What are you doing?" he asked.

He Yan didn't let him close the door, and tilted his head to look at him, "Commander, are you leaving tomorrow?"

Xiao Jue ignored her and closed the door. He Yan was half-stuck in the door, and he couldn't close it, so he simply threw his hands away and walked into the house. He Yan easily crossed the door, entered his room, followed behind him and said diligently, "Captain, you are going to Zhangtai, have you thought about taking me with you?"

"You?" Xiao Jue sneered: "What are you doing with you, there are not enough people who are holding you back?"

In the eyes of this person, it is not certain that all people other than him are dragging their feet.

"This is too underestimated of me. I can help you deal with the Uto people."

"Forget it," he glanced at her up and down, raised his eyebrows and said, "A bodyguard can make you injured, so what about hitting Uto people, Miss He, you're just dreaming."

"It was a special case last time, and Ding Yi is not an ordinary person." He Yan defended two sentences, but knew that what Xiao Jue said also made sense. Her injuries are not yet healed. These days, she is very careful even in training, for fear that the wound will be involved and leave sequelae. And the formation of troops that she is good at can't be brought into play - one main general in a team is enough.

"Okay." He Yan said with some regret, but suddenly remembered something, and looked at Xiao Jue: "Captain, from here to Zhangtai, it will take a month to go back and forth, plus the fight with the Uto people, I'm afraid you will come back. At that time, it is already deep winter. My wounds have already healed, so what do I do these days? Even if it is three times the daily training, you are not here, I did it, you will not deny it, right?"

"Or?" She stared at Xiao Jue suspiciously, "You actually want to take advantage of the Battle of Zhangtai to escape from the Golden Cicada? Are you planning to return to Liangzhou Wei? Leave me here alone?"

Xiao Jue stopped tidying up the scrolls on the table, turned around, and jumped up at He Yan who was looking up at him.

His eyes fell on He Yan's face, and he lowered his head and said, "One, I'm not as boring as you. Two, you're not my fiancee, so I don't need to say anything and leave you here alone. Three, I'm not here, don't you think? Did you just say what you wanted?"

"What does it mean to call my heart?" He Yan said, "Don't wrong me."

He stared at He Yan with a half-smile but dark eyes, and only asked, "Oh? Then why do you ask so much? When will I come back, will I come back, it's very important?"

"Of course it's important!" He Yan blurted out, "I will miss you!"

Can you not want to? Only when she performs better in front of Xiao Jue, and wins Xiao Jue's favor and trust, can she approach He Rufei faster, more openly, and in a slightly equal capacity. Such a living Bodhisattva, Golden Baby, can she not want to?

Seemingly surprised by her words for a moment, Xiao Jue turned her head away and said, "You really can say anything."

"Don't be a liar. Except for the matter of identity, I have never lied to the governor. What he said just now is sincere. Could it be that we are temporarily separated, and the governor will not miss me?"

Xiao Jue: "No."

He Yan: "...Anyway, we were born and died together, so you don't have to be so heartless."

Xiao Jue asked, "Are you finished? Please go back to your own room when you're done. I'm going to lock the door." He clasped He Yan's shoulder and pushed He Yan towards the middle door.

"Commander, I sometimes wonder if our identities are reversed. You guard me like this, as if you are a woman, and I will tarnish your innocence."

"You talk too much."

He Yan's legs were stuffed into his room. Knowing that this person really didn't want her to stay in the room, he quickly took out a handful of bits and pieces from his arms while his upper body could still move. into Xiao Jue's hands.

With a bang, the door was closed.

He Yan said to the other side across the door: "Although you are so ruthless, the Governor, I am still a person who values ​​righteousness. There is nothing for you to do when I go to Zhangtai. I will give you these and eat slowly on the road. I am right there. The Weisuo awaits your good news."

After saying that, without waiting for the answer from the other end, he collapsed on his own, blew out the light, and went to bed.

On the other side of the door, Xiao Jue looked down at his palm.

It was a handful of persimmon frosting fondant, and it was only wrapped in a thin layer of cake paper. Just looking at it, it felt sweet.

Song Taotao and Cheng Lisu were the same, and since they came to Liangzhou Wei, they sent some small gifts every once in a while. She likes sweets herself, so she asked Chiwu to go to the city to buy a lot of sweets, and also distributed a lot to He Yan.

He Yan was thinking that when Xiao Jue was a boy, he carried the sachet containing sweet-scented osmanthus with him. It was true that he liked sweets. He refused to buy the candied haws that he bought for him last time, probably because he bought it at a hawker in the city. I bought it, Second Young Master Xiao refused to eat this kind of roadside dessert. But this persimmon frosting fondant was made by Song Tao Tao Yang Chi Wu who went to a serious restaurant and asked the chef to make it, which should catch Xiao Jue's eyes now.

It's not like I don't even eat this, it's too picky.

I hope he can know the truth of repaying Lee for sugar!

...

He Yan woke up the next day and went to the martial arts field for daily training. It was almost noon, and when it was time for lunch, Cheng Lisu came running.

In order not to see Song Taotao in the past few days, he moved to the Tongpu house where He Yan once lived. Everyone thought that he would not last long, but they never thought that he had really persisted until now. It's just that compared to the house he used to live in, it is a lot simpler, and it is difficult to maintain the appearance of his elegant young man. Looking at his face, he lost a circle, and he forgot to match the hairband with the clothes.

He ran to He Yan panting, He Yan was drinking wild vegetable soup and was almost knocked down by Cheng Lisu, He Yan asked, "What's the hurry?"

"My uncle," Cheng Lisu said, "Brother, my uncle is gone!"

"I know."

"You know?" Cheng Lisu was stunned, and then said angrily: "Then why didn't you tell me? If it wasn't for Teacher Shen telling me today, I wouldn't have noticed that he has left now!"

"Have you left?" He Yan was also slightly surprised. When she woke up in the morning, she didn't pay attention to Xiao Jue's side. She thought that Xiao Jue would leave later, but she didn't expect to leave so early. Probably also did not want to disturb others.

"Why didn't he take Song Taotao with him when he left?" Cheng Lisu began to complain, "Who are you trying to block by staying in Liangzhou Wei?"

He Yan was speechless. It stands to reason that Song Taotao is such a cute and lovely little girl, it is too late for the young men to please, but Cheng Lisu actually avoids it like a snake. What kind of vision does this child have?

She asked, "Song Taotao, what's wrong with you? I seem to be sensible and well-behaved."

"Brother, you can spare me." Cheng Lisu said with a bitter face: "When I knew about this marriage, I wanted to take a peek at it, but I ran into her. I don't know how she guessed me. Identity, scold me at the door."

"What are you scolding you for?"

"What else could it be? If you don't succeed in writing, you won't be able to do it, and you won't have a future. That's all, everyone in Shuojing knows that I'm incompetent, and just like that, I won't be so angry. But she later said, with I can also get married, but I have to study hard in the palace, pass the imperial examination, enter the official career in the future, and strive to be higher. If it is really difficult to learn, I can also take the path of martial arts. In the end, I must be a diligent person.

"How can there be such a vicious woman in the world?" Cheng Lisu spoke of this matter, resentful: "My beloved girl, she must be as meticulous as I am, be out of the world, enjoy wine, and have fun. Zuo just has similar interests. If you are really with her, what is the difference between the rest of your life and imprisonment? So, eldest brother, don’t say good things about her, I am really afraid, and I don’t want to live like that!”

Now He Yan, even if he wants to persuade, he doesn't know what to persuade. Sometimes when two people get along, it's one thing to fall in love at first sight, but it's another thing to never get tired of it for a long time. You want him to be determined and hardworking, but he yearns for idle clouds and wild cranes. They are not the same kind of people, but they want to get together. Even if it is difficult to detect at the time, time will give the answer.

In her previous life, she did not understand the truth in her whole life, and it is worse than two children to see it clearly.

"If you really don't like it, just find a way to break up the engagement, and you don't have to be a good friend to a girl." He Yan thought for a while before speaking.

"Forget it," Cheng Lisu waved his hand, as if he didn't want to talk more, "I really can't be friends with her, and we have different opinions."

He Yan changed the conversation again, and asked Cheng Lisu since Xiao Jue left, or if he moved to Xiao Jue's house. Cheng Lisu actually refused, and only said that he hoped to be as far away from Song Taotao as possible.

Like hiding from the plague god.

After the day-to-day training was over, He Yan returned to the room, and after grooming, he stared at the locked central door and became stunned.

Although Xiao Jue couldn't say a few words to her on weekdays, she always knew that he was right next door. As soon as the person left, he really felt that there was only himself in the huge room, and it was very deserted. Suddenly, I miss the time when I lived in Tongpu with Mai and the others. At this time, listening to everyone chatting a few times will not be boring.

Too quiet makes it impossible to fall asleep. If you can't fall asleep, it's easy to think wildly. He Yan sat up again from the slump. After thinking about it, he got up and put on his shoes and walked to the middle door. He took out a silver wire from his sleeve.

This silver thread is made by Cheng Li's hairpin, and the hairpin is made into a yellow carp. This silver thread is the beard of the carp, which is very cute. When He Yan first met him, he felt a little stronger and straightened his beard. Cheng Lisu only said that it didn't matter, she just lost it, but He Yan felt a little distressed, thinking that she might be able to sell it for tea, so she put it away together.

At this moment, she took out the curled silver wire, pulled it straight, stretched it out from the crack of the door, put her ear on the middle door, and listened carefully to the movement.

This skill was taught to her by a craftsman when she was in the military camp. The craftsman was a locksmith. Sometimes the locked boxes left by the ancestors of the big families or dug up by chance could not be opened, so I went to him to open them. He was also very famous in his hometown. His own children and grandchildren hid and came by themselves.

He Yan still remembered that the locksmith was a little old, and when he laughed, he was missing a front tooth, which was a bit funny. Because He Yan was the same age as his grandson, he fell in love with He Yan. He also taught He Yan one or two tricks to unlock locks.

The locksmith had already died in the First World War in Moxian County, but He Yan still remembers the kung fu of unlocking. The locksmith would open the "scholar"-shaped locks opened by dignitaries, and the "ji"-shaped locks used in wedding celebrations, but only taught He Yanshu the "one"-shaped locks used by civilians. It is probably because of the intention that one day if I can return to my hometown and go back to my old business, I can still eat by craftsmanship. Don't teach the disciples to starve their masters to death. Who knows this thought, but it didn't work out in the end.

He Yan opened the lock with a fluke, but fortunately, the middle door in Xiao Jue and Cheng Lisu's room was exactly in the shape of "one".

However, after a few moments, there was a "click" sound, and there seemed to be a sound of the door lock breaking on the other end. He Yan pushed it gently, and the door opened.

The moonlight fell on the desk in front of the window, the window was not closed, and the tree shadows outside swayed slightly, falling on the ground like water plants in a pond. He Yan crept in, and after entering, he stood still, not knowing why he did such a thing, and was a little annoyed for a moment.

If someone was hiding in the dark at this moment, they probably thought she was a thief. She didn't come to steal anything, nor was it the first time she came to Xiao Jue's house and opened the middle door. In fact, it was just because she couldn't sleep and was bored to death.

But since we have all come, it is a pity to say we are leaving now.

He Yan looked around, there was no drinking sword that Xiao Jue usually hung on the wall, and there were two or three books scattered on the table. His qin didn't take it either, it was hidden to the side, and it glowed with a lustrous luster under the moonlight, like a rare treasure.

Xiao Jue's house is actually not that gorgeous, and even compared to Cheng Lisu's complexity, it seems a little too simple, so that it feels a little depressing. But He Yan remembered that the former Second Young Master Xiao was very particular when he was in the Xianchang Pavilion. The room where he stayed alone was more luxurious than that of Master Bao, and the blankets on the ground were not cold at all when stepping on it in winter.

He seems to be a little afraid of the cold, so the weather turns cold, and when winter comes, he is always dressed in brocade and fox fur, but now the house is full of chills, not as warm as before.

What has he experienced over the years to become the current Governor of the Right Army?

He Yan thought for a while, and before she realized she had already walked to the table. She touched something with her fingers. She looked down and saw a handful of colorful pellets scattered beside the pen holder. She picked it up and looked at the moonlight. The persimmon frosting gummy stuffed into Xiao Jue's hand.

The fondant has been left outside for a long time, it is not as soft as before, and the sweet smell seems to be a lot lighter. He Yan counted, and there was not a single one, but he didn't move, just put it here? Haven't tasted one or two, nor brought it to Zhangtai?

Why is this?

Even if I thought Tang Hulu was too crude, it's still the arrogant self-esteem of Second Young Master Xiao, and I don't want it. Now this fudge is made by a dim sum master in a restaurant in the city. Although it is not a delicacy, it is definitely not crude. After she stuffed it to Xiao Jue last night, she closed the door and no one saw whether Xiao Jue took it or not. What is the reaction. But if he really liked sweets, he would definitely not leave it here.

It was as if he could see the person throwing the candy on the table at will, and even his eyes were stingy at giving one.

Are you afraid that she will be poisoned inside? Or has Xiao Jue's taste changed over the years?

There was no answer to this question, He Yan pondered, and suddenly, she felt something swept across her face, bringing a slight coolness and moisture, and it was fluffy. She looked up and saw something like grains of salt falling down outside. , flew along the wind to the front of the case.

Deep in the night, knowing that the snow is heavy, I hear the sound of broken bamboo.

She took two steps forward, and through the window, she could see the white moon mountain standing majestically in the distance, the moonlight was cool and far, falling in the wilderness, dancing with the snow in front of her.

"It's snowing." She said silently in her heart.

It turns out that the winter snow in Liangzhouwei came so early.

Uncle went offline for a few days on a short business trip, and we Yan Yan were alone for a few chapters.
