Rebirth of a Star General

Night shrouded the wilderness.

In the thatched hut, someone hid in the corner, their lips squirming, not knowing what they were talking about.

"Young master, they have been found. Xu Jingfu's men are chasing them. The brothers are a little confused now. They may have to take them back to the city and let Young Master Lin take a look." Luan Ying stood beside Xiao Jue and whispered. road.

This is the person who survived the battle of Naruto.

During the Battle of Mingshui, almost all of Xiao Zhongwu's troops were wiped out. Among the lieutenants, except for Chai Anxi, none of them survived. And the living soldiers have also died one after another over the years. As for how they died, and whether there was something strange about them, no one cared. Five years have passed since the Battle of Mingshui. Perhaps in this world, except for Xiao Zhongwu's son, no one would care about the sinister conspiracy hidden in that famous defeat of the dead General Guangwu.

"There is no other way?" Xiao Jue frowned, "I'm afraid they can't make it back to the city like this."

"I was in a hurry when I came out. I only brought trauma medicine, and I didn't have a clear mind." Luan Ying shook his head, "Xu Jingfu's people chased them for seven days and seven nights, and the two of them can't bear it without sleep."

Of course, the wheel battle is exhausting, especially such a relentless wheel battle. Xiao Jue thought for a while, and took off a sachet from his waist. It was the sachet made by Bai Rongwei that He Yan had handed over to him earlier. He pinched the bag and ripped off the rope, which contained a tiny peace charm and some herbs. Listening to He Yan's words, this is mind-blowing.

Xiao Jue poured out the herb and handed it to Luan Ying, "Take it and give them a sniff. If you don't leave tonight, let them rest for a night in another place."

Luan Ying responded.

After tracking down Xu Jingfu and Ming Shui's case for so long, it is not easy to finally find two witnesses who are still alive. But this also shows that Xiao Jue's ability over the years has gradually grown to the point where he can compete with Xu Jingfu.

I can't stay here for long, I have to move to another place. After finding a home outside the city, everyone settled down together with the delirious brothers.

Chiwu and Feinu stood guard in front of the brothers' door to prevent accidents at night. Luan Ying went out to inquire about the news. The night in the suburbs is always extraordinarily deserted. Especially in autumn, when there are few people more than a dozen miles away, the moon is white and bright, shining in the open wilderness, like flowing silver water, giving birth to a bit of desolation.

He actually doesn't like Mid-Autumn Festival. Because the Mid-Autumn Festival always reminded him of bad memories in the past. The fuller the moon, the lonelier one appears to be. Every year around this time, he always finds it difficult to fall asleep. In previous years, he was in the military camp and could read official documents for half a night. Now that he is back in Shuojing, he really can't do anything here.

Xiao Jue lowered her head and looked at the sachet in her hand. The herbs in the sachet were hollowed out, and there was only a flat layer, and the peace amulet was small. After thinking about it, he opened the sachet and planned to re-insert the peace amulet.

Although it was embroidered by the maid of the Xiao family, the silk material and pattern were personally selected by Bai Rongwei. Bai Rongwei is always very persistent in this matter, and the sachet is extraordinarily delicate. Fingers stroked it, the satin was as cold as moonlight.

Xiao Jue's eyes paused for a moment, and the next moment, his fingertips slid across the inside of the sachet and touched a rough bump. This bulge on a flat satin surface is extraordinarily different. He lowered his eyes and turned the sachet over.

The side inside appeared in front of Xiao Jue.

There are two layers of embroidery on the inside of this sachet, which is a double-layer embroidery. The inner layer of cloth is ordinary black with no pattern. However, at the moment, there is still a crooked, bright yellow horn embroidered on the inner cloth, which cannot be seen. What is it, but it can be seen that the craftsman of the embroidery is really not flattering, and the thread ends are not cut cleanly.

How should I put it, the black python outside the sachet and the yellow horn in the sachet really don't look like they appear in the same piece of work.

what is this? Xiao Jue raised her eyebrows. Bai Rongwei's craftsmanship was much better than this. If the Xiao family's maids, Nu Hong, were like this, it would be a bit scary to say it. This sachet was given to him by He Yan. In the entire Xiao family, there should be no one except Miss He who can make embroidery like this.

He played with the sachet over and over, trying to find traces of other things He Yan embroidered, but no, except for this yellow horn, she didn't embroider anything.

Xiao Jue's mouth twitched.

Is this training with his sachet? He practiced so sneakily and quietly, if he hadn't taken the herbs inside and opened the sachet, I'm afraid he would never discover the secrets in his life. But what's the point of doing this? If you really want to practice, you can find a white handkerchief to embroider endlessly, and hide it in it, always feeling that there is a deep meaning that he doesn't understand.

At this moment, in the wilderness, the sound of footsteps came again. A 12- or 13-year-old boy walked up to him, smiled and said to him, "Master!"

This child is Luan Ying's son, named Bai Pheasant. He has handsome eyebrows and looks very similar to Luan Ying, but he is young and has some flesh on his cheeks, which makes him look a little honest and cute. Unlike Luan Ying's frosty temperament, Bai Pheasant, like all teenagers of his age, is innocent and even a little talkative.

He likes Xiao Jue very much, no matter how many times Luan Ying warned him that he should be divided between superiors and inferiors, not to be presumptuous, Bai Fei couldn’t remember, Xiao Jue didn’t care about these, so wherever Luan Ying didn’t see, Bai Fei only saw Xiao Jue Jue, will try to stick to it.

Bai Fei saw the sachet in Xiao Jue's hand at a glance. His eyes were so good that he could actually see the embroidery on the lining clearly in the dark, and blurted out, "Huh? This moon embroidery is so beautiful!"

"...Moon?" Xiao Jue was taken aback.

Bai Fei replied confidently, "Young master, look, the yellow one is curved, it's the moon!" He leaned a little closer, put his toes on his toes to observe the embroidery pattern in Xiao Jue's hand, and praised, "This is the The black interlining represents the night, the moon is embroidered on it, it is the moon in the night, and it represents the young master, you are the moon in the night, dazzling, dazzling!" The child said with energy, whispering mysteriously Xi asked, "Master, did the girl give you this?"

Xiao Jue: "..."

He was a little uncomfortable and took back the sachet, "No."

"How could it not be?" Bai Fei was very puzzled. "If it wasn't for a girl, how could a man embroider such exquisite embroidery?"

Xiao Jue once doubted whether Bai Fei was He Yan's younger brother. Their evaluation of "beauty" was rare.

Bai Pheasant wanted to ask again, but suddenly a voice exploded behind him, "Bai Pheasant!"

Bai Fei was so frightened that he hid behind Xiao Jue, "Mother... I just happened to see the young master when I went out to the toilet."

Luan Ying grabbed his ear and pulled him out from behind Xiao Jue, "How many times I said not to disturb the young master, why is this child ignorant? Young master, sorry, I will take the boy back!"

Luan Yingti slipped back with Bai Pheasant, and Xiao Jue was left alone on the edge of the field.

The moonlight shone on the black field, and the soil was stained with hoarfrost, like the snow on the Weijiang River in Liangzhou, pouring into the cold.

The ruthless bright moon, the affection returns to the dream, he curled the corner of his lips, turned to leave, suddenly, his footsteps stopped, as if thinking of something, he raised his eyes suddenly.

In my memory, among the lively and laughing crowd, on the high platform, there was a girl whose face was hidden under the mask, and one of them said boring words.

"The last secret," she tiptoed close to his chin, her voice soft, "I like the moon."

"The moon doesn't know."

...

The day of entering the palace will soon come.

Xiao Jing and Bai Rongwei also entered the palace together, and they were a little surprised to learn that He Yan was not with them, but with Lin Shuanghe, but the two of them were very considerate people and didn't ask any further questions, waiting for Lin Shuanghe's response. When the carriage came, he put He Yan on the carriage and told him to see him again in the palace.

Lin Shuanghe sat in the carriage and said with a fan, "Huaijin is probably afraid that you and Brother Rubi and the others won't be able to get along. We are all old friends, so we can get along better." He looked at He again. Yan, sighed, "It's really his loss that Huaijin didn't come back today. Our sister He is also very heroic in wearing this gorgeous men's clothing. If you enter the palace with me, today's civil and military officials will never be able to. People can take away the light of you and me."

He Yan thought about other things and dealt with it perfunctorily. Seeing this scene, Lin Shuanghe thought she was nervous when she entered the palace, so he comforted him: "Don't be afraid, sister He, brother Youwei is here. I am very familiar with the palace, you can walk sideways, as long as you don't kill people and set fire to them, you can find them. My grandpa settles it."

He probably cheated his grandfather, and he had done it very well, so he brought He Yan with him.

The carriage galloped all the way, and after an unknown amount of time, it finally reached the gate of the palace. The guards in front of the palace were already familiar with Lin Shuanghe's carriage. Lin Shuanghe and He Yan got off the carriage and followed the palace attendant who led the way.

This is He Yan's first time entering the palace.

If it was this time in the previous life, she should be nervous, because being able to meet the Son of Heaven will give her a reward. But once she died, she knew that the so-called future and wealth were like floating clouds. She entered the palace now, not for the future, but for an account in her previous life.

Bypassing the promenade garden in the palace and walking through the front hall, the monarch's palace banquet this time is nothing more than a celebration. The people who came were all prominent figures in the court, such as Lin Shuanghe, who could also sneak in because of the relationship between Lin Qingtan and Lin Mu.

In the front hall, a lot of people have come. He Yan looked at it, but did not see the shadow of Xiao Jing and his wife, Lin Shuanghe said in a low voice: "We are taking the short road, Rubi should take the main road, maybe come here. It's a little later. It's okay, Brother He, I've been following you, and when someone comes to say hello later, I'll tell you your name so that I can teach you to meet some people."

As soon as the voice fell, someone said: "Lin Shuanghe!"

However, this person was not the one who came to meet He Yan, because this person was Yan He. Yan He was wearing his official robe, and the woman standing beside her was beautiful and gentle. Her appearance was not too stunning, but she was very attractive. She bowed from Lin Shuanghe, "Young Master Lin."

This is Yan He's wife, Xia Chengxiu.

Yan He does whatever he wants, and in the public eye, he takes Xia Chengxiu's shoulders and purses He Yan, "Chengxiu, this is what I told you, and I hate He Rufei's confidant as much as I do. But now it's Xiao Huaijin. people," he looked at He Yan, "do you want to do things with me?"

Without waiting for He Yan to speak, Lin Shuanghe waved his hand uprightly, "No! Of course this kind of thing has to be done from the beginning, how can there be a change in the middle?"

Yan He was inexplicable: "Is this going to end from the beginning?"

"Could it be that you have such a person in your heart toward Qin Muchu?" Lin Shuanghe looked at Xia Chengxiu, "Mrs. Sister-in-law, I'm worried about you."

Xia Chengxiu: "..."

Yan He was furious: "Lin Shuanghe, shut up, are you the one to sow discord like this?"

Lin Shuanghe: "It's good that you know."

Yan He scolded Xia Chengxiu and walked away, and Lin Shuanghe breathed a sigh of relief. When he turned his head and was about to ask He Yan, he saw He Yan staring blankly in one direction. Lin Shuanghe followed her gaze and saw that not far away, someone was talking. Standing in the middle was a young man in a robe. He was gentle and handsome. He was no stranger.

Lin Shuanghe was a little puzzled, He Yan stared straight at him, and those who didn't know thought she was interested in Xu Zhiheng. However, Xu Zhiheng already had a wife, and in terms of being gentle and handsome, Chu Zhao was not bad either. Compared to Chu Zhao, Xu Zhiheng was far behind.

Could it be that he couldn't find a substitute for Chu Zhao? Lin Shuanghe's mind was a mess.

At the other end, Xu Zhiheng also seemed to have noticed that someone was looking at him, and followed his gaze. He Yan had Zhang Sheng's face here, Xu Zhiheng had never seen it before, but knew Lin Shuanghe. Lin Shuanghe did not have an official position. Lin Qingtan and Lin Mu were also very good people in the court. Most of the officials in the court were on good terms with the Lin family, or at least they would not take the initiative to fight against each other. Seeing that Lin Shuanghe was also looking at him, Xu Zhiheng was a little surprised at first, and then he said goodbye to the colleague who was talking to him, and walked towards Lin Shuanghe.

"Brother Lin." He stopped in front of Lin Shuanghe and said warmly, "Long time no see."

Lin Shuanghe knew Xu Zhiheng, but he only knew him, he was not familiar with it, but he was a good person, so he said: "Yes, after going to Liangzhou for a while, it's better for us to be in Shuojing. By the way, this is me in Liangzhou. Brothers the state knows."

He Yan looked up at Xu Zhiheng.

It has been more than two years and almost three years since she last "saw" Xu Zhiheng. In her memory, Xu Zhiheng was a gentle, considerate, handsome young man who could at least be deceived by his skin. But looking at it now, I don't know if it is because of the fact that the relationship is born from the heart, Xu Zhiheng's face has become a lot more mean.

He lost a lot of weight, and the official robe was already wide, which made him look a little stooped. Because he was too thin, there was an old look on his face, and even the deliberately squeezed smile looked extremely stiff.

Xu Zhiheng was also looking at the person in front of him.

This is a very handsome young man, with vigorous brows and eyes, a red round neck robe lining her lips with red teeth and white teeth, a black belt around her waist outlines a very beautiful figure, the most attractive is the pair of eyes, clearly defined It is a gentle shape, but its eyes are sharp. When this young man was separated by a long distance, he stared straight at him, obviously it was the first time they met, but in his eyes, there seemed to be all kinds of emotions, cold and gloomy, as if seeing through him All the camouflage, people can not help but heart palpitations.

Xu Zhiheng was uncomfortable with such eyes, and turned to Lin Shuanghe, "This is..."

"Master Xu, don't look at this little brother at a young age. Now he is Wu An Lang, named He Yan by His Majesty. He will be our colleague in the future."

Xu Zhiheng was still listening to Lin Shuanghe's words with a smile on his face, but when he heard the words behind him, the smile disappeared, and he asked, "What did you say... What's his name?"

"Master Xu," He Yan looked at him with a smile, "he will be called He Yan, He Miao's He, He Qing Haiyan's Yan."

Xu Zhiheng's complexion changed greatly.

The corners of the boy's lips were slightly raised in front of him, and he looked friendly and green, but when he looked closely at her eyes, there was no smile at all, like a pool of icy pond water, which brought people to such an afternoon, where the young woman was swept away. Struggling to the bottomless abyss, the overwhelming suffocation was pressing on the throat.

His throat was so dry that he couldn't utter a single sentence.

Fortunately, at this time, someone called Lin Shuanghe's name. It was Lin Qingtan. Lin Shuanghe dragged He Yan away and said, "Brother He, that's my grandfather. I'll show you."

The person in front of him is gone.

Xu Zhiheng almost suspected that the name he had just heard was a dream, caused by his restlessness for a while, but when he looked up, he was standing beside Lin Shuanghe in the distance, the young man who was talking to Lin Qingtan... This is a fact.

There was indeed a person named "He Yan" who appeared in front of him.

Xu Zhiheng was drenched in cold sweat. A colleague noticed his strangeness and asked with concern, "What's wrong with Mr. Xu? His face is so ugly? But he's not feeling well?"

Xu Zhiheng smiled reluctantly and waved his hand, "Nothing." He turned around and walked to the corner where no one was there, daring not to let others find his horror.

He curled his fingers, trying to convince himself. What about He Yan? There are not a few people with the same name and surname in the world. "Grandma Xu" is already dead, and he personally watched and sealed it into the coffin. Today's He Yan is a man, and considering his age, he should not match.

but……

but……

But the young man named He Yan stared at him, and thinking about it now makes Xu Zhiheng's back full of chills.

Indifference, hatred, sarcasm, and, in an instant, a knowing smile that sees everything.

And he still said that.

The first time he saw He Yan, or the first time he saw He Yan who appeared under her real name, the girl was wearing a skirt and said rather uncomfortable: "My surname is He, my name is Yan, and I am from He Miao. He, He Qing Haiyan's Yan."

Xu Zhiheng closed his eyes.

How could there be such a coincidence?

How could such a coincidence happen to him. This is really...

His restlessness was seen by He Yan not far away, and he sneered in his heart.

Wang Ba always said that if you walk for a long time at night, you will meet a ghost. At first, he only thought that this person was too timid, but now it seems that his words are not unreasonable. Just like Sun Ling and his son in Liangzhou City, they have done countless evil things, and countless women died in their hands, but they are also afraid of evil ghosts taking their lives, filling the courtyard with Buddha statues and charms.

Lin Shuanghe was well-liked, and when he went to a place, he could not avoid chatting with people. He Yan was always by his side, matching the positions and faces of these people.

Where and what to do. When the battlefield is changed to the court, the general never fights unprepared battles.

At this time, someone only heard a loud voice: "General Feihong is here, General Feihong is here!"

The officials present quieted down a little and looked in the direction of the outer door. It must be said that the two famous generals of the Great Wei, Fei Hong and Feng Yun, are always eye-catching at any time. Xiao Jue can't come today, so He Rufei is the only person who attracts attention.

Yan He, who was standing on the side, laughed out loud, and said disdainfully, "It's not the emperor, as for putting on such a big air?"

Xia Chengxiu tugged at his sleeve, but Yan Hecai did not continue.

He Yan also followed the crowd and looked in the direction of the outer door.

But I saw that someone walked in with the palace staff leading. This man was wearing the official robe of a military general, and he was considered handsome. He had the unique style and roughness of a military general. When someone greeted him, he nodded in response. estranged.

This alienation made him, the "General Feihong", appear more mysterious.

"Tsk." He Yan heard Lin Shuanghe beside him speak, "This kid was quite cute when he was a child, how come he becomes less likable as he grows up? What's the difference between this look and the old guys who have been in the officialdom for many years? "He added in a low voice, "The officialdom is a big dye vat... Fortunately, I'm not an official."

This is the first time He Yan has seen He Rufei like this when he is facing his colleagues in the courtroom. He bears the name of General Feihong. He lives like a duck to water without any burden, as if from beginning to end, he is General Feihong. Like myself.

He Yan felt sick.

Probably because his eyes were too focused, He Rufei also seemed to have sensed it and looked at her. The moment his eyes met, He Yan turned his head sideways in time and spoke to Lin Shuanghe. So He Rufei only saw a strange young man standing beside Lin Shuanghe. Maybe it was his delusion? He Rufei didn't take it to heart, and found a good colleague and sat down together.

Of course, all the colleagues he made friends knew each other after taking off the mask. He had nothing to do with him in the past, and Xu Zhiheng, in front of outsiders, they were not friendly. Everyone in the world knew that He Rufei and He Xinying were deeply in love, but for this brother-in-law, he could only be regarded as a gentleman's acquaintance.

He Yan knew otherwise.

It's just a thief with a guilty conscience, afraid of being caught by others, and doing it deliberately. It seems that they are very afraid of that incident being discovered. The more afraid they are, the more confident He Yan will be.

Lin Shuanghe said, "Let's sit down first."

Men's and women's families are to be seated separately, but there are very few women's families who come to such a palace banquet. Except for the ladies who were liked by the Queen Mother in Su Ri and brought their own girls, there is no one else.

After an unknown amount of time, there was an internal servant from outside, and Emperor Wen Xuan arrived.

In the past two days, people who have been engaged in Double Eleven have been exhausted, and they have to buy and refund. . .
