Rebirth of a Star General - Chapter 151

Chapter 151

Mu Xiaolou cuddled with Mu Hongjin for a while and was called away by Tong’s aunt. The maid beside him helped Mu Hongjin stand up, walked a few steps forward, and walked to the colorful wall with murals.

The hall is large and deserted, and the only lively thing is this painted wall. The flow of people in the market and the canal transfer all the excitement of Jiyang City in it. Everyone’s faces were full of joy and joy, and she hadn’t seen that vividness for many years.

After all, since she took the position of the prince’s daughter, she stayed the most, that is, this empty palace.

Mu Xiaolou will be sent out of the city after today. The so-called Wang Shu’s birthday banquet is just a cover. The vassal princes and vassal princes have not been in contact for many years, so as not to cause your majesty’s suspicion, everyone will settle down, and the world will be peaceful. Now that the Utuo people hide in the dark, Jiyang is about to come. She cannot escape, she needs to stay in the city and coexist and die with the people who can’t leave. This is the strength of the Mu family, but Mu Xiaolou can’t stay. She is Jiyang’s only hope. If… At the bad step, only Mu Xiaolou is alive, and everything is hopeful.

“Several adults have already ordered the evacuation of the people.” The maid said softly: “His Royal Highness is worried about Your Highness?”

Mu Hongjin smiled and shook his head, “I am worried about Jiyang City.”

The long branches of the willow tree outside the window dipped in the fresh green of spring, stretched out to the edge of the pond, and made a little ripple.

It’s like this every spring, but it’s just people.

When Mu Hongjin was young, she liked the life outside the palace very much. As the youngest daughter of King Mengji, when her elder brother was still alive, she was like all the innocent and innocent palm pearls in Jiyang’s wealthy family. Some people spoiled and lived. It’s warm and cute. But since the death of his sixteen-year-old brother, life has changed.

King Mengji began to ask her to learn a lot and set a lot of rules. Only then did Mu Hongjin really understand how hard the previous brother had been. But hard work is hard work. King Mengji has no other heirs. As the person who will carry the entire palace in the future, it is understandable to suffer for it.

But if even the marriage relationship has to be controlled by others, Mu Hongjin can’t accept it.

Thinking about it now, she was spoiled at that time, young and energetic, and dared to leave. He didn’t even realize how to deal with the important court officials who would be repented of marriage by leaving his father alone in the palace. If it were Mu Hongjin today, he should have no such courage.

The more you bear, the less freedom you have to be your “self”. The courage to spare everything is only once in a lifetime, after that age, after that time, there will be no more. Together with the young self, disappeared in the long river of years.

Originally, Mu Hongjin really liked Liu Buwang.

The white-clothed boy is cold-tempered, upright self-sufficient, but sometimes a little unsophisticated and naive. Obviously possessing marvelous skills and outstanding skills, he can really look for a sheep for the farmer seriously and never complain. But Mu Hongjin thought, these so-called advantages, such as kindness, such as innocence, are all additional. She likes Liu Buwang. From the beginning, Liu Buwang was under the peach blossom tree, holding a sword in front of her, and drove her away. It started when those gangsters were gone.

Heroes save the United States, how many happy marriages have been achieved in the legendary storybook. She was determined to follow Liu Buwang, shedding tears and even coaxing, and using whatever tricks she could on the other party. It is a pity that Liu did not forget to treat her coldly and politely, and did not see any favor.

Mu Hongjin was a little discouraged, but after another thought, Liu Buwang treated her well compared to others. Originally earning less money, she would order a plate of apricot flower crisps for her when she was eating in a restaurant. When staying at the inn, spend more money to add a thicker mattress for her. He put the money in a conspicuous place, and closed one eye to her secretly buying some rouge. If it were not for unfavorable feelings, he would not tolerate it to such a degree. Therefore, Mu Hongjin always felt that with one more step and more time, it would be sooner or later that Liu Buqiang fell in love with him.

Until Liu Buwang’s junior sister came down the mountain to find him.

The little junior girl is called Yushu, which is different from Jiyang women’s pungent temperament. She looks weak as if it can be blown away by a gust of wind. She has white skin like a porcelain doll, like a virgin under the Guanyin seat, her fairy spirit is fluttering and she speaks softly. Whispering can make people feel affectionate. But Mu Hongjin could see a hint of hostility in this girl’s eyes.

She was careless and didn’t realize anything. I heard that Yu Shu is the daughter of Daoist Yunji again, and came down here specifically for fear that Liu Buwang could not cope with the worldliness of the people under the mountain to help. He also had a good impression of her, and regarded her as a younger sister.

Mu Hongjin didn’t feel any difference when the two-person line became a three-person line. Yu Shu was always obedient, unlike her, never caused trouble to Liu Buwang, just over a month passed.

On the day when Liu did not forget to return to Qiyun Mountain, he originally planned to take Mu Hongjin up the mountain. Who knows, inside and outside Jiyang City, they are investigating the missing little majesty. The officers and soldiers are under martial law. There are also at the foot of the mountain.

Mu Hongjin could not go to Qiyun Mountain.

She pulled Liu Buwang into the room, looked at him seriously and said, “I can’t go back with you.”

The boy thought she was making trouble again, so he asked, “Why?”

“Tell you,” Mu Hongjin hesitated, telling the truth and telling the truth, “I am the daughter of King Mengji, and the person whom the officers and soldiers in and out of the city are looking for is me.”

Liu Buqiang was stunned.

“My father wanted me to marry me to the son of a court official to stabilize the status of the king. I didn’t want to, so I escaped. I didn’t expect to meet you. This month, I have had a great time, Liu Buyun “,” she didn’t call “Shao Xia”, calling Liu Bu-forgotten’s name, “I don’t want to marry him, but I can’t go up the mountain with you, what should I do?”

The girl is no longer as lively and mischievously as in the past, looking at him quietly, her eyes are full of trust, perhaps, there is still a little unknowingly dependent.

Liu Bulong didn’t know what to say. Maybe he had already noticed that Mu Hongjin’s identity was unusual. The girl living in Jinzhiyuye in the Mansion of Mengji was somewhat different from the girl from ordinary people in Jiyang City.

Liu Buforg thought for a long time and said to her, “In that case, you will wait for me at this inn. When I go up the mountain to tell Master about the matter, I will go down the mountain to pick you up after two days and find a way to solve the matter.”

Mu Hongjin was a little bit reluctant: “Are you leaving now?”

“I will be back.” The boy said uncomfortably.

On the day he left, Mu Hongjin saw him off in the open space behind the inn. He was a little disturbed in his eyes. He seemed to have foreseen something. He couldn’t help but grasp Liu Buwang’s sleeve and said to her: “Liu Buwang, remember If you want to, you must come back.”

“Relax.” He patted her head comfortably for the first and last time.

Liu Buwang and Yu Shu left, and Mu Hongjin obediently waited for him in the inn. She believes that Liu Buwang will definitely come back. Although Liu Buwang hasn’t liked her yet, Liu Buwang is a person who will do what he says.

Two days later, Liu Bulong did not come back.

Mu Hongjin was still waiting in the inn, she thought, maybe Liu Buqiang was delayed by something on the road. It rained for several days in the night, and the mountain road was not easy to walk, maybe he could not go down the mountain immediately. Or if Dao Master Yun Ji has something to explain to him, he has to finish it before he can come.

After another five days, Liu Buwang still did not appear. Mu Hongjin started to feel a little worried, the world is so uneasy, could it be that he was robbed by the passing mountain bandits? Although he has great swordsmanship, but with a pure heart, he can even deceive him round and round. How can he really fight those insidious villains?

On the tenth day, people finally came to the inn, but it was not Liu Buwang who came, but officers and soldiers. The leader of the officers and soldiers stood in front of her, his tone polite and cold, “His Royal Highness, it’s time to go home.”

Mu Hongjin was taken back to the Mengji Palace. She was locked in the room, slammed the window “popping” and shouted: “Let me out!”

No one answered.

She started a hunger strike in protest, and his father, King Mengji, asked the door to be opened.

Mu Hongjin threw himself in front of King Mengji and cried aggrievedly: “Father, how can you let them lock me up!”

“Red Brocade,” Mengji Wang shook his head and smiled, and brought the food on the maid’s tray to her. “These are all your favorite snacks.”

“I don’t want to eat.” Mu Hongjin turned away, “I want to leave the house.”

King Mengji didn’t get angry, and was silent for a while before asking, “Are you waiting for the young man named Liu?”

Mu Hongjin suddenly raised his head, his eyes unconcealed in surprise: “How do you know?”

“He won’t be back.”

“No, he will come back!” Mu Hongjin couldn’t help but said: “He promised me that he won’t break his promise.”

“Really,” King Mengji said lightly: “You think, how did I find your whereabouts.”

Mu Hongjin was stunned.

Cruel words came out of her father’s mouth, instantly shattering her dream of deceiving herself and others, “He told me where you are.”

“He personally sent you back.”

Afterwards, Mu Hongjin couldn’t understand why Liu did not forget why he sent himself back to the palace. She didn’t want to believe the words of King Mengji, but Liu Buwang, this person, really disappeared from her life and never appeared again.

Mu Hongjin gradually believed it later.

Such a person really wants to find out how someone can find a way. She has persisted for more than half a year, but she can’t do it anymore.

Half a year later, Mu Hongjin married and married the son of a heavy court official. Although she was married, she was called her “king’s husband”. The position of the prince was firmly seated, but the elder son who was born still followed the “Mu” surname.

Wang Fu is not as bad as Mu Hongjin said before, but he can’t be called very good. The two lived a life of respect and respect, and her husband was a concubine. She was happy to accept it. She was not jealous or jealous. Wang’s husband was also very measured and treated her with respect. In the eyes of outsiders, this is the most satisfying marriage in a blind marriage. But Mu Hongjin felt that her freshness and vitality, as early as that spring day, opened like an epiphany, quickly decayed, and disappeared.

She always felt that her heart was empty, and she didn’t know what she was asking for. So I can only devote more time to official business in Jiyang city.

A red carp jumped out of the water and stirred a pool of spring water. After a while, the red tail was on the surface of the water and disappeared quickly.

Mu Hongjin looked at the water in a daze.

She told He Yan that Liu Bulong had not come to the inn to fulfill their agreement, and the two never saw him again. In fact, she lied. After that, she and Liu Buwang actually met again, but that meeting was not really pleasant.

It was the second year after she gave birth to her child, and she took her young son and her husband to the Bao Temple in Jiyang City to pray for incense. The Buddha statue is curled up and the Sanskrit sound is far-reaching. She prays for the young son to grow up safely and healthily, and for the prosperity of Jiyang City and the people’s peace. After the blessing was finished, when I was about to leave, I saw someone peeping outside the gate of the temple. Mu Hongjin asked him to go, and the guards caught a young woman.

After many years, the woman was still as weak and well-behaved as when she first saw her. She looked at Mu Hongjin with a little fear and panic in her eyes.

Mu Hongjin was startled, it was actually a jade book.

She subconsciously wanted to find Liu Buwang’s figure, the jade book is here, maybe Liu Buwang is also here.

Yu Shu seemed to understand what she was thinking, and blurted out: “He’s not here!”

“Oh?” Mu Hongjin looked at her and smiled meaningfully.

Time will make a woman grow up quickly, and Mu Hongjin is no longer the silly girl who was careless and indistinguishable from a rival in love. Of course she understood where the hostility in the girl’s eyes came from in those past times, but Mu Hongjin never regarded her as an opponent.

She tilted her head, squatted down, and stared at Yu Shu’s face with interest: “It doesn’t matter if you’re not here, I caught you, and he will naturally appear.”

Yu Shu’s face changed drastically.

Mu Hongjin stood up with an indifferent expression: “It is said that a female assassin appeared in the temple, intending to assassinate the main temple, and has been captured by the guards.”

There was a red shadow at the end of her eyes, exquisite and gorgeous, she was no longer the clear-eyed, innocent girl.

Mu Hongjin didn’t return to the palace, so he lived in the temple, sent away all the guards and servants, told the king to leave with the youngest son, and waited for the man to appear alone.

At midnight, that person really appeared.

Over the years, he seemed to fade away from the youthful youth and become even more deserted and unfamiliar. And when I saw Mu Hongjin’s first sentence, I didn’t ask how she had been in these years, but: “Where is the jade book?”

There is no emotion, as if the two of them have never been just unrelated strangers.

Mu Hongjin lowered her head and wanted to laugh a little. She almost wondered whether those days, the spring day outside Jiyang City, was just her own conjecture. She regarded Liu Buwang as a hero who suddenly appeared in her life, and Liu Buwang looked at her, but it was an accident that she did not want to appear.

“In prison.” Her voice was also cold.

Liu Bulong looked at her.

He has changed a lot, and she is so strange. The girl in the memory is not half similar to the woman with a red robe and golden crown in front of her with a cold and arrogant expression.

“Jade Shu can’t assassinate you.”

“Why is it impossible?” Mu Hongjin laughed sarcastically.

“You let her go.” Liu Bulong said: “Catch me.”

He looked at her indifferently and without emotion, no longer the helpless pampering or annoying retreat back then. It is only as calm as a stranger, and perhaps, there is a bit of aversion to “powerful”.

How ridiculous.

“Why,” Mu Hongjin stepped forward, just looking at his eyes, “It’s just a junior sister, so maintenance, do you like her?”

She was just a word of temptation, Mu Hongjin didn’t even know what he was expecting? Perhaps, what she was looking forward to was the other party’s quick denial, and then looked at herself and said, “You are the only one in my heart”. What a vulgar part of the bridge, Mu Hongjin had seen it in the past, and he would have to sip disgustingly, but now, in his heart, he is expecting to hear it from his mouth.

It is a pity that the story is the story of the story, and the legend is the story of fiction. The love and love in the world are entangled, and in the end it is nothing but grievances. How many lovers have turned against each other, and how many husbands and wives have not seen each other.

Liu Bulong said: “Yes.”

She said, “What did you say?”

“I like him.”

The youth’s voice was frank and direct. For a moment, Mu Hongjin felt that his fingers were shaking. Once upon a time, she also wanted to hear this sentence from Liu Buwang’s mouth. For this sentence, she had used any tricks to cheat and kidnap her. Liu Buwang’s mouth was severe and severe. She was anxious for many times, and only felt that this person’s mouth was I can’t pry it apart.

It’s so easy to say it right now.

It turned out that it was not that she could not be opened, but the person who was talking to him, not her.

She felt more and more ridiculous in her heart. Back then, all kinds of things flashed through her mind one by one. When she was a worry-free girl, she didn’t see Yu Shu’s friendship with Liu Bu-forget. When she was the Queen of Mengji, she saw it, but she didn’t put Yu Shu in her eyes.

It turns out that people are in love with each other, and she is overwhelming.

Queen Mengji, what is the use of golden branches and jade leaves? In the relationship, she lost terribly, and she didn’t even have a chance to compete with each other. I have been thinking about it for so many years.

“Did you tell my father about my stay at the inn back then?” she asked.

Liu Bulong said: “Yes.”

“When you left, didn’t you think about coming back?”

“Yes.”

Mu Hongjin took a deep breath, as if he wanted to see more clearly and pain more thoroughly, uprooting something in the bottom of my heart, without looking at it again, she asked: “Liu does not forget, you are Haven’t you never been touched by me?”

Liu Buqiang stared at her with beautiful eyes, his expression indifferent like a passerby, he only said one word: “Yes.”

“So that’s the case.” She murmured, her eyes were a little hot, she even raised her mouth, and said: “Since you only love your younger sister, are you willing to do anything for your younger sister?”

Liu Bulong looked at her: “What do you want to do?”

Mu Hongjin’s fingers crossed his shoulder little by little, in an ambiguous and frivolous tone: “If you are my lover, I will let her go.”

From the beginning to the end, Liu Buchang was calm, his expression did not see any waves, only at this moment, as if he was stung by something, he took a quick step back and avoided Mu Hongjin’s contact.

Mu Hongjin’s body became stiff, and the corners of his mouth curled up mockingly, his tone was deliberately contemptuous: “Why, unwilling? Being the lover of the prince’s daughter is not everyone’s blessing.”

Liu Buwang looked at him steadily. His white clothes were slender and dusty, and the sword on his waist was gleaming. He was as bright as the first encounter. It is impossible for a person who is so elegant and does not provoke dust to accept such humiliation.

She just wanted to humiliate him. Why is she so worried about it for so many years, but he can treat it as not happening at all. What Liu could not do for her, he would never do it for Yushu.

Otherwise, what has become of her Mu Hongjin? The touchstone to prove their true love?

Then, she saw that in the dim Buddhist hall, Liu Buwang knelt down slowly, and answered calmly, “Okay.”

Mu Hongjin felt a sudden pain in his heart, almost out of breath.

What else to prove?

Enough, this is enough. I asked clearly, the doubts that have troubled me for so many years, and the unsatisfactory results, whether it is good or bad, happy or sad, have all been answered. Jiyang women dare to love and hate, can afford to let them go, and the prince also has her own pride. She has the whole Jiyang city, is she still looking for life for a man?

It’s just a bad fate.

She raised her chin and said coldly: “But this hall is not willing.”

“How can a person like you stand by the side of this temple?” Every time she said something, such as cutting meat with a knife in her heart, even Mu Hongjin himself was surprised, but in just one month, why did she not forget to have such a thing for Liu? Deep feelings, when I cut this sinful fate with my own hands, it will give birth to a lot of reluctance.

“Take your sweetheart and get out of Jiyang City.” She said.

“Thank you, Your Highness.”

As always, his voice could not hear the ups and downs, and Mu Hongjin’s tears fell into the darkness.

“You and I go your own way. Liu Buwang, from now on, you and your little junior sister will never enter Jiyang City, otherwise, we will meet once and kill once in this hall.”

In the dark night, the corners of the red robe draw a bright, brilliant glow. Such as clear boundaries, it is clear that the two will never have anything to do with each other from now on. Just like the petals under the peach blossom tree when I first saw it, the whole area was paved, and the dangling people were dazzled.

But dreams always wake up.

She let go of Yushu and returned to the palace, just as it had never happened. She and Wang Fu are still singing and singing, and the years are quiet, but even if they raise their eyebrows, their intentions are difficult to settle.

A few years later, King Mengji passed away. Mu Hongjin gradually became busy. A few years later, Wang Fu also passed away, and she spent all of her energy on her youngest son.

Later, her son passed away, and only one Mu Xiaolou remained with her.

Mu Xiaolou was born, much like her as a teenager. So she always spoiled Mu Xiaolou a lot, just like her father spoiled her when her brother was still there. Mu Hongjin understands very well that once she sits in the position of the prince, one day, that brilliant little girl who will sneak out of the house will disappear, so before she disappears, she wants more and cares for her. Live for a while.

She hopes that Mu Xiaolou can have her own story, not like her, in a story of other people, let down for many years in vain.

The apricot flowers bloomed lively and densely on the branches. The girl in the garden strayed into the depths of the forest flowers and had a long dream. There are joys and sorrows in this beautiful dream, but in a flash, it seems to have passed a lifetime.

Her spring died a long time ago.

Perhaps, I have never been here.
