Rebirth of a Star General - Chapter 132

Chapter 132

“Then do you want to try?”

The distance is too close.

He Yan was startled at first, and then he was stunned. When he crashed into the deep autumn water, he felt that his cheeks were quickly hot, and he wanted to retreat. He was imprisoned with his shoulders and couldn’t move. He had to raise his head from his arms and knot. Stuttering refusal: “…try what?”

“I’ve seen so much, don’t you want to try?” He raised his eyebrows, bowed his head and approached, his eyes fell on her lips, making He Yan’s heart beating with surprise.

The facial features of a man are more refined and heroic than Ming Li Junxiu when he was a teenager, with a kind of cold indulgence. This kind of person is like a flower of kaolin in normal days. When his lazily curled lips and even his eyes become hot, he feels sultry and irresistible.

He Yan said, “I don’t want to.”

“Oh?” He curled his lips and chuckles, his tone becoming more dangerous, “How can I know how the painting is if I don’t try it.”

“This… doesn’t have to try,” He Yan explained clumsily. “Actually, you can understand after reading more. It’s the same thing. It’s nothing more than the difference in details… and some are not suitable for ordinary people. Those who draw gimmicks and have fun, really don’t have to try, just read it.”

Xiao Jue: “Have fun?”

He Yan: “…Some people may also be thirsty for knowledge.”

Xiao Jue’s eyebrows were cold, and his smile became more playful. He said indifferently, “I have such experience, so I must try it.” As he got closer, He Yan had already retreated to the head of the bed and couldn’t retreat. He turned his head slightly and leaned over. The thin lips were about to fall on the corners of He Yan’s lips.

He Yan screamed: “Husband!”

This “husband” shouted too loudly and shocked Xiao Jue. After a while, he stopped, only a little away from He Yan, and raised his eyebrows: “What are you doing?”

“I’m still an unmarried girl,” He Yan whispered for mercy, “I will marry someone in the future. We are like this, it’s not good.”

“What’s wrong,” Xiao Jue said calmly: “Anyway, you and I have already seen the picture together.”

“It’s one thing to look at pictures, but in fact it’s another.” He Yan begged: “The governor spared me this time. I will never ask the governor to look at the pictures together in the future.”

She thought, Xiao Jue’s mind is really elusive. Isn’t he just looking at a picture, he wants to make a fake show? Who would dare to look at pictures with him in the future? Something is going to happen.

Xiao Jue looked at her with a non-smiling smile: “Now I know I’m afraid?”

“I’m afraid,” He Yan felt obediently: “I promise I won’t look to the governor to look at pictures in the future.”

“You mean,” he said unhurriedly: “Will you look for others?”

“I won’t look for anyone else!” He Yan immediately said, “I don’t even look at it myself, really!”

Her grape-like pupils stared at him, clear and bright, as if they were a student who was caught by her husband. Xiao Jue suddenly felt a little puzzled, and felt that his behavior was weird. What does He Yan like to watch, what does it have to do with him? Is it because she called herself father, she has to worry about everything like raising a daughter?

But having said that, how exactly did her father raise a girl-girl, he was able to raise such a strange thing who doesn’t know what shame is.

He suddenly released the hand that was holding He Yan and glanced at the painting on the wall. It was difficult for Cui Yuezhi to think of the funny things of the night for his nephew, but it was really useless. Then he pulled the satin cloth of the shop on the small table and covered the painting on the wall, and “swish” two silver needles into the wall, nailing the satin firmly.

At this point, He Yan finally understood that Xiao Jue hates seeing this picture, so think about it. The second son of Xiao Bing Qingyu has clean eyes above the top, and this filthy picture must have dirty his eyes.

Really particular about it.

After he finished all this, he got up and walked to one side of the house, found a mattress from the yellow wooden low cabinet on one side, and spread it on the soft collapse in front of the window.

The soft collapse is for guests to sit in front of the window and enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the window, while sitting while eating snacks and tea. Seeing this, He Yan was taken aback for a moment, and asked him, “Capital Governor, are you sleeping here tonight?”

“otherwise?”

He Yan hesitated: “Actually, you can go to bed and sleep together.”

Xiao Jue took a while to make the mattress, looked at her, and said indifferently, “I think you are very brave.”

“No, I know what your scruples are,” He Yan said, “We only need to use two mattresses. When I was in Liangzhou, I lived in a Datong shop, and it was fine for a dozen people to sleep on one bed. Besides, I I believe that the character of the governor will not tarnish my reputation.”

Xiao Jue sneered slightly, “But I don’t believe in your character, I’m afraid you will tarnish my reputation.”

He Yan: “…”

She couldn’t answer this.

After seeing Xiao Jue making up the mattress, she lay down, after thinking about it, she blew out the light and lay down.

In the room, only a little moonlight outside the window shone through the gap on the floor in front of the table, stained with a layer of silver frost.

When they were young in Xianchang Pavilion, they were in the same room, and they were quite far apart. He Yan slept in the same room alone because He Yuanliang greeted Shibao specially.

Now that he and Xiao Jue are in the same room, there are some shadows of the past.

She lay flat, the mattress under her body was soft and warm, He Yan said, “Are you asleep?”

Xiao Jue did not answer.

He Yan continued, “I shouldn’t sleep yet, so… Master, let’s talk.”

Xiao Jue still ignored her.

“What are we doing here in Jiyang?”

She only knew that she came to Jiyang to accompany Xiao Jue on errands, but she didn’t know exactly what she was doing.

In the dark night, Xiao Jue’s voice came: “Find someone.”

He Yan was stunned for a moment, but he didn’t expect Xiao Jue to answer, so he asked, “Who are you looking for?”

“Chai Anxi.”

“Who is Chai Anxi?”

There was silence in the room for a while, and Xiao Jue could be heard saying: “My father’s men.”

Xiao Zhongwu’s men? He Yan was stunned. In the Mingshui battle that year, Xiao Zhongwu and his cronies were all killed in the battle. Even though he was a subordinate, he was considered a trustworthy person when he listened to Xiao Jue’s tone. Could this person be alive and still in Jiyang?

Jiyang is the realm of the vassal kingdom, and there are very few people from the Central Plains. Chai Anxi was in Jiyang, but it seemed that he was hiding from someone. It is difficult to achieve that he is hiding from Xiao Jue, but why should he hide from Xiao Jue, Xiao Jue is the son of Xiao Zhongwu, and he should be loyal to him.

Perhaps the general’s mind is always extremely sensitive in this regard. He Yan immediately thought, could it be that there was a problem with Xiao Zhongwu’s defeat and death back then?

After all, in the Battle of Mingshui, Xiao Zhongwu’s defeat was too tragic. The world said that he was self-sufficient and wasted the opportunity of fighting. It is worth noting that Xiao Zhongwu’s past record is not a self-sufficient person.

Maybe… Xiao Jue came here just for what happened back then. The insider is no longer there, but this Chai Anxi is still alive, suspicious indeed.

He Yan thought for a while, and said, “You can definitely find this person.”

In a little bit of night, he seemed to hear him chuckle, and he asked: “Why did you come to Jiyang?”

“Me?” He Yan inexplicably, “You didn’t let me come.”

Xiao Jue hummed: “Even if I don’t let you come, you will find a way to keep up, don’t you?”

He Yan’s heart jumped, and this person’s feelings were a bit too keen, she was indeed a drunkard who didn’t want to drink, and hoped to find Liu Mingwu in Jiyang.

But she wouldn’t say this to Xiao Jue.

“You are too suspicious,” He Yan said nonchalantly: “This time, I am here purely because of you. As long as you need me, even if you go up to the sword and down the fire, I will be there.”

There was a moment of silence on the other side, and said: “Flaming.”

He Yan: “What else would you say besides flattering?”

“Bullishly deceive people.”

“anything else?”

“Smallpox in the mouth.”

“anything else?”

“Hiddenly.”

He Yan: “…”

She said: “Master, do you know that you are really naive now?”

Xiao Jue: “Sleep.”

I don’t care about her anymore.

There was still a chill in the spring night. For some reason, there was someone around tonight. He Yan didn’t feel cold. He got into the bed happily. The bed was warm, but he fell asleep in a moment.

…

On the second day, when He Yan woke up, Xiao Jue was no longer in the house.

She was stunned for a moment, guessing that it was not long before the sky was up now, Xiao Jue actually got up earlier than her? He Yan stood up, hurriedly freshened up, put on an outer garment, and saw Xiao Jue sitting on the stone bench in the yard, with a dirty wild cat lying on the stone table in front of him, sipping his mouth. Eat what’s in his hand.

He Yan approached a little bit, and saw a plate of pastries he didn’t know where it came from, being crushed into small pieces to feed the wild cat in front of him. When the wild cat saw someone coming, his fur all over his body exploded, and he did not know which pond he was rolling over. The fur was stained with dirty water and condensed into pieces.

“Why is there a cat here?” He Yan asked. He wanted to touch it. The cat immediately bared its teeth. He Yan retracted his hand and said, “It’s quite fierce.”

Xiao Jue glanced at her: “I picked it up.”

The young man had slender fingertips and was extremely patient. He broke the cakes a little bit. The cat was probably a look at his face. After Xiao Jue was very gentle, he whispered “Mimi” softly while eating.

Don’t say it, it looks pretty beautiful.

He Yan couldn’t help asking, “Master, don’t you like cleaning the most?” Huo, when I was with her, I disliked it in all manners, and I had to dust off every sleeve. Why, I faced a dirty wild cat. Be generous.

“It also depends on the situation.” Xiao Jue said unhurriedly.

He Yan thought to himself, what is the division of circumstances? Does it mean she is not as good as a cat?

As he was thinking, Xiao Jue had already fed the last piece and patted the cat’s head. The cat was also clever, arched up, jumped onto the wall, and disappeared.

He Yan was taken aback.

At this time, Cuijiao’s voice sounded outside: “Young Master, Young Lady, the breakfast from the small kitchen is here.”

He Yan felt hungry: “Let’s go, eat something.”

Xiao Jue cleaned his hands, followed He Yan into the room, watching Lin Shuanghe deliver the silver needles from the food, and said: “Eat, I tried it, it’s not poisonous.” After saying that, he whispered indignant again. This person is too different from person to person, so why don’t we eat so rich.”

He is now the “Steward of Lin” and can’t eat with Xiao Jue and Heyan, he has to eat with Chiwu Feinu. You can’t even taste a bite, the province is noticed.

Xiao Jue: “Go away.”

Lin Shuanghe rolled away.

Hong Qiao stood behind He Yan, and He Yan waved his hand: “You also go and eat with Chiwu and the others. Young Master and I are not happy to wait. I will prepare vegetables. I will be fine.”

Cui Jiao and Hong Qiao were taken aback, then looked at Xiao Jue again. Seeing that Xiao Jue hadn’t spoken, Cui Jiao said, “The slave girl knows it.” Pulling Hong Qiao and leaving together.

Walking outside, Hong Qiao asked hesitantly: “Cui Jiao, let’s just leave, isn’t it great? Why don’t the young ladies and young masters want us to serve on weekdays? Are they not satisfied with us?”

“Not really,” Cuijiao was clever, and only said: “Xu is from the capital city, which is different from our Jiyang. Besides, I heard that the young lady and the young master were newly married, so I want to take care of the young master’s affairs. This is called… this It’s fun.”

At this time, the so-called young lady who was “serving the young master personally” was eating a plum bun with relish.

The last time I ate so good, I was pretending to be a nephew to accompany Xiao Jue to Liangzhou City. But the food at that time was just a sign in the inn. This time it’s different. Cui Yuezhi’s status in Jiyang is not low, and he is a nephew who hasn’t seen him for a long time. He treats him very carefully. Early in the morning, look at this table, assorted fire, Xi Shi milk, pheasant sliced soup, fish maw simmered ham, bird’s nest chicken shredded soup…

“The food this morning is too greasy,” He Yan said, taking a bite of the Eight Treasure Wild Duck.

Xiao Jue endured it, but finally couldn’t help it, and said, “Didn’t I give you a full meal?”

He Yan’s mouth was bulging: “Huh?”

He looked away in disgust: “You are eating like a starving ghost and reborn.”

“But don’t you think it’s delicious!” He Yan desperately swallowed the food in his mouth.

Xiao Jue ridiculed: “You just have this vision?”

“You are a prince, a governor, and a pampered person. Of course, you have seen the world, and you don’t think it matters. We soldiers, it’s good to have enough food on weekdays, not to mention eating well.” He Yan muttered, “You are a full man and I don’t know how hungry you are. Han is hungry.”

He choked, gave up reasoning with He Yan, and said lazily: “It’s up to you.”

He Yan watched Xiao Jue while eating, marveling at his elegant appearance. It stands to reason that they have stayed in the barracks for many years, whether they were young masters or princes before, but in the end, they don’t care about these exquisites. He Yan didn’t pay attention to his manners when he was the “Prince He”, but he really started fighting, filling up a piece of cake in twos and threes and then getting up to work, no one can care about his posture.

He Yan didn’t believe that Xiao Jue had never been like this. It was just that after going through such embarrassment, he was able to return to the former second son Xiao seamlessly. This is really not what ordinary people can do. At least she had long forgotten how to be a “boy”.

After the meal, Cui Jiao and Hong Qiao came over to dress up He Yan. Cui Yuezhi will have a banquet in the mansion at noon today. They will also invite the famous nobleman in Jiyang City to give Xiao Jue. Long face. So you can’t be sloppy.

Xiao Jue went out to look for Lin Shuanghe. He Yan sat in front of the vanity mirror, Hong Qiao took out the “silk silk yarn” from the box, and asked He Yan, “Madam, do you want to wear this one today?”

He Yan thought for a moment. There are a lot of people here today, so be safe, so it’s not wrong to wear the most expensive one, and then nodded and said: “Okay.”

The two girls got busy.

On weekdays, He Yan is the most impatient to do these things. Sometimes he even feels that the delicate work of being a woman is much more tiring than a man. It is not easy to just comb your hair and put on makeup, choose jewelry and shoes, and even tuck your hair cute. Combing and combing, I fell asleep.

He Yan was awakened by Hong Qiao, and Hong Qiao said, “Madam?”

He Yan opened his eyes and asked in a daze, “Alright?”

“Okay.” Cui Jiao smiled, her eyes exclaimed, “Madam, you are so beautiful.”

He Yan: “Thank you very much.”

She raised her eyes to look at herself in the mirror, and was taken aback for a moment. The previous women’s dresses were still elegant and sober, but this “silk gauze” can be considered charming and gorgeous. Cui Jiao and Hong Qiao also worked hard today, and even their makeup looks unwilling to make mistakes. He Yan looks into the mirror. The strange self in the middle, slightly lost.

Now, even the real Miss Heda didn’t look like it anymore.

Cui Jiao smiled and went to push the door, saying, “Master is next door, and the slave servant will tell Master to come and have a look.”

He Yan: “No…”

Before the word “must” was finished, Cui Jiao went out happily.

He Yan stood up, suddenly hesitating. She was still wondering what kind of attitude she should use to face Xiao Jue to be more natural, and she heard a casual voice from someone behind her: “Alright?”

He Yan looked back.

The girl didn’t know what she was thinking, her clear pupils were a little confused, and her expression became hazy. She was born beautiful and charming, and the heroic spirit between her eyebrows and eyes was deliberately concealed by the powder, which seemed pure and moving. He has a pretty face, and his black hair is simply tied up and hung over his shoulders obediently. She also looks very thin and petite, and she is more slender with a pale white embroidered skirt. The skirt hides very light dark flowers, and the sun shines through, like mermaid scales, glowing with light blue, purple and gold powder. She was caged in a layer of magnificent colors, as if she had just climbed onto the shore, and the legendary shark who first arrived in the dust.

Xiao Jue’s eyes paused slightly.

Lin Shuanghe’s voice came from behind: “I want to see what the clothes worth a hundred gold look like, show me, show me!”

His noise suddenly disappeared when it fell on He Yan, leaving only surprise in his eyes.

Chiwu and Feinu, who came immediately afterwards, also saw it. Feinu was okay, Chiwu seemed to have suffered a huge blow, this man… can women achieve such a beautiful appearance?

It’s not a man at all, it’s terrible!

He Yan was at a loss when they saw him, and felt that he was like a monkey on the stage for others to watch. He grabbed the corner of his clothes and said pitifully, “…Is it…a bit too much?”

Isn’t it just for a banquet? As for dressing up like this? Is it too grand?

It’s okay for her not to make this expression. As soon as she did this action, her eyebrows seemed to be frowning, and she suddenly felt pitiful. Xiao Jue couldn’t explain it: “…Don’t use this expression to speak.”

“But not!” Lin Shuanghe was excited, “Great, just right! This one hundred gold clothes is one hundred gold clothes, it is really extraordinary, this money is worth it!”

Cuijiao became happy: “Is that right, ma’am? Just said the slave maid, it’s really pretty!”

When He Yan was a man, he was often praised for being “powerful, brave and handsome”. He had never tried to be a woman and was praised for her appearance. She was a bit shy and didn’t know how to respond for a while, so he clasped his fists and said loudly: “No Dare not to be.”

Xiao Jue: “…”

Lin Shuanghe: “…”

The rest: “…”

Lin Shuanghe said, “…good-looking is good-looking, just madam, sometimes you don’t have to be too bold.”

Xiao Jue sneered: “You should speak with the expression just now, otherwise I might forget that you were a woman.”

He Yan: “…”

Okay, forget about it for a while.

…

At noon, Cui Mansion went up and down and began to lively.

Horse-drawn carriages kept stopping at the door of Cui’s Mansion.

Jiyang belongs to the domain of the vassal vassal. Today’s prince Mu Hongjin grew up with one of Cui Yue. Cui Yuezhi is Mu Hongjin’s confidant and Jiyang’s great rider. Everyone wants to give him face, I heard that Cui Yuezhi Yuezhi found his nephew who had been separated for many years, and specially hosted a banquet for his nephew’s return. Everyone wanted to take a look.

Cui Mansion is huge, there is a lake behind the mansion, Jiyang is full of water, the water color is gentle, and there is a long lake pavilion in the lake. Today, the banquet is held in the lake pavilion.

In the long pavilion, some people have prepared a few long low tables early, and the feast on the table is also rich, and there are already some distinguished guests. Cui Yuezhi, the master, has not yet come out of the palace, and he has not married a wife, only a four-bedroom concubine, so the only one who helped greet the guests was the old housekeeper Zhong Fu.

Next to a woman on the right side of the pavilion, sits a girl in pink. This girl is beautiful and charming. She has a darker complexion and has applied more powder. On the contrary, she has less barbaric style. A little gloomy old-fashioned. There was a faint impatience between her eyebrows, and she only asked: “It’s all this hour, why hasn’t that young man and his wife arrived yet?”

“What’s the hurry?” The woman beside her, probably her mother smiled and comforted, “Isn’t this yet to have a banquet? Besides, Master Cui hasn’t arrived yet, how can Young Master Qiao show up first? But Min’er is hungry. ?”

Yan Min’er, the girl in pink, frowned, “I’m not hungry. We waited for Cui Zhongqi to take it for granted. But I heard that Cui Zhongqi’s nephew, after living outside Jiyang City, Adopted by a businessman, he is now just a business man. How can a business man, a man covered with copper, be worthy of waiting like us? Is it true that I am a person?”

After all, the fact that Qiao Huanqing is a businessman is known to the noble family in Jiyang. Even though I came to the banquet today, it was because of Cui Yuezhi’s face, and I didn’t look down on Qiao Huanqing in private. It’s just that she won’t say it directly like Yan Miner.

“Hush—” Mrs. Yan hurriedly covered her mouth: “Don’t talk nonsense. No matter what, he is also the nephew of Master Cui. I think he is too spoiled to teach you such lawlessness. You have not seen today. Master Cui hosted a banquet to welcome this Master Qiao. If you say Master Qiao is not good, Master Cui feels happy?”

“So what,” Yan Min’er said with disdain: “Master Cui and my father are friends, so I won’t blame me.”

“You.” Madam Yan deliberately wanted to stop her beloved daughter from speaking out, but she was reluctant to really scold her.

Yan Min’er turned her beautiful eyes, thought for a while, and said disapprovingly: “I see, maybe I haven’t seen a big scene. At this moment, I am hiding somewhere and dare not come out, waiting for Cui Zhongqi to help lead the way. ”
