Rebirth of a Star General - Chapter 177

Chapter 177

For several days, He Yan could not see Li Kuang.

Li Kuang seemed to be deliberately not seeing him, He Yan couldn’t find his people, and his men refused to tell He Yan where he was going. He Yan blocked Li Kuang several times, and Li Kuang didn’t want to talk to her more. He Yan had no choice but to say: “Master Li, before I came to Rundu, I had asked someone to ask for reinforcements. Besides, I also said that now Rundu’s soldiers and horses are not without the possibility of fighting the Utuo. Why should Master Li defend? With a dead end, blocking one’s own way alive?”

“This is in Rundu, not Liangzhou.” Li Kuang’s attitude was also very tough, and he was not moved by He Yan’s words. “Although you are Wu Anlang who is pro-appointed by your majesty, you are not powerful enough to command me. To the point. Regarding the night attack on the enemy’s camp, I am very grateful for your help, but so far, don’t interfere with what I will do afterwards.”

He Yan looked at him carefully. When he first came to Rundu, although Li Kuang had a sad face between his eyebrows and was still a little angry, his expression is wrong now, his eyes are somber and gloomy, as if he has made some determination, never Shaky stubbornness.

His mood is obviously bad, but it’s not just because of the Utuo, He Yan can detect it.

“Master Li… how do you plan to deal with the famine in the city?” He Yan asked, looking at his back.

Li Kuang shook for a moment and said, “I said, I have my own way, it’s none of your business!”

He Yan walked around in front of Li Kuang and looked directly into his eyes, “Master Li, I am indeed not from Rundu, but I am also very clear about the situation. The matter hasn’t reached the worst point yet, and we burned it. If you trust people with food and grass once, you can kill their soldiers and horses the next time. If Master Li keeps burning with jade and stone, there will be no way to fight this battle. This city simply cannot be defended.”

What she said was a bit more serious. An angry look appeared on Li Kuang’s face, “What do you know!”

“I know that if Master Li miscalculates the current situation, he will make the wrong decision.”

Li Kuang’s eyes showed a little anxiousness. He endured it and tolerated it, and finally couldn’t help but push He Yan away in front of him, saying: “How to do it, I have my own opinion, no need for your guidance!”

He strode out, not giving He Yan a chance to speak at all.

He Yan frowned and stared at his back, feeling more and more uneasy.

She wasn’t dealing with Li Kuangchu, and Li Kuang’s reaction was clearly a desperation. He refused to believe He Yan’s other method, and He Yan couldn’t persuade him, so he couldn’t command Rundu’s soldiers and horses. Even if she knocked Li Kuang stunned, the soldiers in Rundu would not follow her orders-Li Kuang had been leading these soldiers for too long.

Perhaps because of this, he would not even choose the “adventurous” decision He Yan said.

She walked out of the house slowly, preoccupied. In the past few days, even Zhao Shiming has come out less and less and less food. It’s okay not to walk around hungry. As soon as he walks around, he feels hungry and hungry.

Huyat hadn’t launched an attack on Rundu. That night, he made a sneak attack and the grain was burned. I was afraid that the Utuo people would not be as calm as they were on the surface these days. Huya definitely wanted to attack the city immediately, but the existence of “General Feihong” made them a little jealous.

But this fear will eventually dissipate, and Huyat will always discover the truth. Only by sending people to the Huayuan area, they will know that the present in Rundu City is a fake. The moment Huyat discovered that “General Feihong” was fake, he would immediately attack Rundu. So these few days are actually the days that He Yan fought for the people of Rundu.

But Li Kuang is stubborn and conservative.

As he was walking, he ran into Qi Luo head-on. Compared to when He Yan first arrived in Rundu, this girl looked a little thinner, and her hungry chin was a bit less sweet and more charming. Just as soon as she saw He Yan, her eyes curled up with a smile, showing a familiar smile: “Master Xiao He.”

“Girl Qi Luo.”

“Have you quarreled with the master?” Qi Luo pointed out the door, “The concubine just saw the master go out angrily. Master Xiaohe, don’t get angry with the master, the master has a straighter temper, but he is a good person. If you offend Master Xiaohe, the concubine will make a payment to the adults on behalf of the master.”

She thinks wholeheartedly for her master. He Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head, “It’s okay, we just have some disagreements.”

Qi Luo nodded as if not understanding.

Seeing that she was holding a bunch of garland-like things in her hand, He Yan was a little strange, and asked, “There are still flowers?”

All the edible things in Rundu were mostly eaten by the hungry people. Why can there be flowers to make the wreath? Qi Luo handed the wreath to He Yan with a smile, and He Yan took it. Seeing that the wreath was made of very small, I don’t know what kind of grass it was made of, and it was dotted with scattered purple flowers. , He Yan approached to smell it, but Qi Luo hurriedly stopped: “You can’t smell it, Master Xiaohe, this flower is poisonous!”

He Yan: “Poisonous?”

“Heartbreaker, the more beautiful it is, the more poisonous it is. People in Rundu know it, so no matter how hungry they are, they will never pick it up and eat it. Otherwise, how would I use it to make a wreath.” She sighed again, “No matter When do the poisonous weeds grow extraordinarily luxuriant, it would be nice if the crops in the fields could also be like this.”

Seeing He Yan not speaking, Qi Luo smiled again: “Master Xiaohe is interested in this wreath? Your concubine can teach Master Xiaohe to make this kind of wreath. Maybe you can give it to your sweetheart, and your sweetheart will be very happy.”

She was also worried about He Yan’s “sweetheart”, He Yan was a little bit dumbfounded. She thought that if she made a wreath and gave it to Xiao Jue, Xiao Jue would probably think she was sick, so it would be fine if she didn’t kill her.

“Fine,” He Yan shook his head, “He doesn’t like these flowers and grasses. Girl Qiluo’s kindness is accepted.”

Qi Luo was a little disappointed. He took the wreath in He Yan’s hand and said, “Okay, but how come no girl likes flowers and grass? When the master picked me flowers, I was happy for a while.”

“Master Li?” He Yan said in his heart. He didn’t expect that Li Kuang’s fierce temper would pick flowers for his beloved concubine.

“Yeah,” Qi Luo nodded desperately, as if he was afraid He Yan would not believe it, “It was picked for me this morning, and I made a wreath easily.”

He Yan’s original smile said, “Today?”

“Yes,” Qiluo laughed, “My master has been very good to me recently.” She forgot to say “concubine body”, and just shared her joy with He Yan, “Promise the battle of Waiting, just Give me a big house, and allow me to plant plum trees in the yard. Yesterday, I saved my own dry food for me to eat.”

As he talked, Qi Luo’s face was also confused, “Is it because I have been born again recently? Or is my dead mother blessing me in the sky, the master is so obedient to me, I almost don’t know Him.”

He Yan’s heart sank, and the terrible guess came back into his mind. She asked Qiluo, “Apart from this, what’s wrong with Lord Li these days?”

“No.” Qiluo shook his head, and complained to He Yan a little bit: “But Master Xiaohe, how can you call me something wrong? Master used to treat me very well, but now he treats me better. Probably. It’s “seeing the truth in adversity.” Now that I am with the master, the master must be moved.”

He Yan frowned and took a step forward, “Miss Qiluo, you’d better avoid Master Li these days.”

“Why?” Qi Luoqi asked.

He Yan looked at her. The girl with a beautiful moon and beautiful face had grown up a lot, and her smile was always a little bit like a fox. This made her look clever and smart, and very cute, but her eyes were still transparent. Out of innocence.

A charming and charming beauty, a…a woman who has no power to bind a chicken.

“Maybe… Master Li will hurt you.” He Yan said solemnly.

Qi Luo was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, “Master Xiaohe, what is the meaning of these words, how can you hurt me if it is too late for the master to pamper me?”

He Yan knew that she didn’t believe it. In fact, women always think of men with extra long love. She didn’t know… As she didn’t know, there was a prerequisite for that long love.

“During the peace and prosperity, the girl is naturally worthy of pampering.” He Yan’s voice is low, so low that people can hardly hear the pain in her voice, “But in the troubled times, human lives are like weeds, for Master Li, No matter how heavy the girl is, it is not enough to run the city.”

Keira: “I still don’t understand.”

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand.” He Yan raised his head and looked at her, “Master Li is very busy all day, so please don’t be alone with him these few days. When there is nothing to do in the day, go to another place. Go, go to Master Zhao or other people, in short, if you can’t see Master Li, you won’t see Master Li.”

Qi Luo looked at her strangely, what the young Wu Anlang said was inexplicable, how could anyone persuade him to distance himself from his master? If it hadn’t been because she knew that He Yan led the elite soldiers to attack the enemy camp a few days ago and rescued the captured women, Qi Luo would have doubted whether this person was a bad person.

She said: “Master Xiaohe, I…I am the master’s concubine, it is impossible not to see the master.”

“After the war in Rundu is over, you can see how you want, but now, stay away from her!”

The young man’s eyes are very clear and very dark. When he is determined to look at people, he is extremely powerful. Qi Luo nodded subconsciously, then shook his head.

He Yan also hesitated in her heart. She is now a “Wu An Lang”. No matter how doubtful and worried Qiluo is, it is impossible to put someone else’s concubine by her side and fall into the tongue. Two Jiang Jiao, maybe they would really cut Qi Luo. She said, “Go to Mrs. Zhao’s wife and stay with her during the day. If Mrs. Li suddenly wants you, you can ask someone to tell me and I will go with you.”

Qi Luo was a little suspicious, but He Yan insisted very much, and finally agreed. He Yan went to find Wang Ba and them after Qian Ding Wan’s instructions.

On the day of the night attack, Wang Ba and the others followed her and were also injured. Stone and Jiang Jiao are okay, Wang Ba injured his leg, which is not too serious. Huang Xiong’s wound is deeper, on his left hand, and the knife mark is very deep. It is not the right hand at all. If not, I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold the knife in the future. .

In any case, they are raising. When it was in the house, Hong Shan and Huang Xiong were both sleeping, Stone and Wheat went to help repair the weapon shield, and only Jiang Jiao and Wang Ba sat on the side of the threshold.

Seeing He Yan, the two raised their heads, Jiang Jiao said, “Brother He, how is it?”

He Yan shook his head.

Wang domineering did not fight: “What’s the matter with the surname Li? Seeing that he is also a tall man, how can he be so courageous? Just staying in the city as a tortoise? My damn is hungry these days. If you lose weight, everyone will starve to death if you continue to do so. When you get to the ground, you will still starve to death. It’s better to die when you kill the Utuo!”

Jiang Jiao said: “Master Li is also afraid that the city will be buried with the people, but…” He looked at He Yan, “I asked the soldiers here that they have run out of food. We have all been brought from Liangzhou for the past few days. The dry food that came here, just this little dry food, was also eaten yesterday. From yesterday to now, we haven’t eaten anything, so we can’t go on like this.”

“That’s right! Even the mice in Rundu City were taken out and eaten, and there was no insect. This damn wanted us to chew the table? What the hell was Li Kuang thinking? I had known the day when he burned the grain and grass. If you don’t take it away, you can hold it on your body for half a day.”

Jiang Jiao was amused and angry, “It’s all at that time, where can I take care of so much. Brother He,” he looked at He Yan, “You have no other way?”

“乌托人的粮草被烧，但他们在城外，还能捕猎，不至于饿死。”禾晏忧心忡忡，“单比谁耗得更久，润都百姓定然耗不过乌托人。所以，李匡的想法，决计不可能。而他现在不答应出城与乌托人正面相扛，我无法命令润都兵马，只能寻求外援，只是……”

只是恐怕没有等到那一日，润都就要先出大乱子了，李匡这几日的态度，十分不对。

她叹息了一声，没有说话了。

……

另一头，绮罗去找了赵夫人。

虽然禾晏的表现怪怪的，但很奇怪，绮罗对禾晏，总有一种说不出来的亲切感。因此，虽然禾晏说的话她一点也不相信，却还是愿意照禾晏说的做。如今李匡每日都很忙，也顾不上她，她白日里想去哪里都行，倒是比往日更自由。

赵夫人正抱着自己的小孙儿满面愁容，她的媳妇重病在床，大夫来了几回也没用。大家心知肚明，这根本就是饿出来的病。没了吃的，当然养不好身子。赵夫人自己也饿的脱了形，好好的一个知县夫人，如今衣裳都大了许多，露出来的手臂细弱的像是用力就能折断。

绮罗心中想着，过去城中的娇小姐们，日日嚷着少吃一点，瞧着瘦弱轻盈惹人怜爱，只怕战事一过，便再无人会这样想了。饥饿的滋味实在难熬，一朵花总要自己喝足了露水，才能盛放给别人看。

赵夫人只与绮罗说了两句话，便闭上了嘴，神情恹恹，这种时候，饿的狠了，是连话都不想说的。

绮罗陪着她坐了一会儿，外头有个小兵过来，对绮罗道：“绮罗姑娘，大人找你。”

“找我？”绮罗有些惊讶，李匡整日忙于润都战事，若非她主动去寻李匡，李匡决计不会主动来找她。不过联想到这几日李匡对她的格外宠爱，绮罗心中顿生喜悦，润都战事大抵唯一的好处，就是叫李匡瞧见了她的忠心，也许这份宠爱不止能持续三年，十年是极有可能的。

这一刻，她只被脑海中幻想的喜悦充满，早已将禾晏的嘱咐抛之脑后，高高兴兴的提起裙角，笑盈盈道：“好啊，我这就去见老爷。”

Qi Luo followed the soldier to the room, and there was not only Li Kuang in the room, but also Li Kuang’s deputy soldiers and several adults in Rundu City. There are also a few Li Kuang’s confidants, Qi Luo is a little strange. She thought it was Li Kuang who missed her and wanted to be gentle with her. So many people didn’t seem to be gentle. Maybe someone is coming? She, the most beautiful girl in Rundu, wants to fight for Li Kuang? But this is not right. If there is a big man, how could the county magistrate Zhao Shiming not be there?

She stepped forward and said, “Master.”

Li Kuang was facing her back and turned around after hearing this. These days he is a lot of gaunt and old, standing with Qiluo, he really looks like Qiluo’s father. General Feihong, the famous general of Wei Hong, once ridiculed this way, but Qi Luo didn’t think there was anything. Her own father died early. Li Kuang gave her food, a house and shelter. Many biological fathers in this world can’t do this to their daughters. Moreover, Li Kuang is a hero who protects the people. She admires him and never thinks anything wrong with him.

At this moment, her “husband” raised his eyes to Qi Luo. Her eyes were filled with deep meaning that she couldn’t understand. It seemed to be painful, and it seemed to be mixed with coldness. After watching for a long time, he asked in a hoarse voice: “Qiro, how long have you been with me?”

Qiluo tilted her head and thought for a while, “Going back to the master, my concubine has been with the master for more than three years, and after this summer, it will be four years.”

Li Kuang loves her very much, so he takes him with him wherever he goes. His own wife and son are in Shuojing, and he has to support his parents. It is impossible for him to come to the border area with him. It happened that Qi Luo, a young and beautiful girl like that, had been with him for many years without complaint.

His life is straightforward and arrogant, he doesn’t like women’s intrigue, Qi Luo is a little innocent and careful, more of a kind of pure enthusiasm. She is easily satisfied and always writes the word “competition” clearly on her face. She was very polite in dealing with others, and her colleagues all envied him for having such a interpretive flower. In fact, Qi Luo never really enjoyed anything.

As his beloved concubine, Qiluo was not as good as those women in Beijing.

Li Kuang murmured: “It’s been four years…”

His tone was heavy, Qi Luo felt a little scared inexplicably, she turned her head to look at the people around her, and the soldiers who had known her in the past turned her head away, avoiding her gaze.

Why is this?

No matter how clever she is, she stared at Li Kuang with those grape-like wet eyes, full of doubts.

Li Kuang’s eyes also flashed with pain, and a moment later he said, “Come here.”

Qi Luo Yiyan stepped forward.

…

He Yan and Jiang Jiao talked for a while, and Shito and Hong Shan also woke up. Mai and Shishi helped to repair the weapon. He went back to the house and saw He Yan. He only asked, “Brother Ahe, don’t you go to Master Li today?”

“I have already found it.” He Yan shrugged.

Jiang Jiao thought for a while, “Should we accompany you to find Master Li? Let’s persuade him?”

He Yan actually felt that Jiang Jiao’s move would not have much effect, and Li Kuang’s attitude was too firm. However, this is already here, and the dead horse is simply treated as a living horse doctor. He got up and said, “Okay, you can try again.”

At that time, Liu Buwang was so annoyed by her that she accepted her as a disciple. Li Kuang’s patience was not as good as Liu Buwang, and he might be able to do so. Although the result of this is most likely Li Kuang drew a sword against her. .

He Yan took a group of people to look for Li Kuang again, walked halfway, passing by Zhao Shiming’s yard, and seeing Zhao Shiming’s wife sitting in a daze at the door holding her little grandson, He Yan was startled and asked, “Mrs. Zhao, Didn’t you see Girl Keira?”

Before she left, she clearly agreed with Qiluo and asked Qiluo to go to Mrs. Zhao. How could it appear that Mrs. Zhao was the only one?

Madam Zhao didn’t seem to understand He Yan’s words, and only replied after a while: “She was called away by Master General.”

He Yan “cocked” in his heart, without saying anything, immediately ran to Li Kuang’s yard. Wang Ba and others behind him are unknown, so Wang Ba asked: “What is he doing so nervously? He has an affair with that woman?”

Hong Shan: “Don’t talk nonsense! Ahe has just arrived in Rundu not long ago.”

“Then he can also attract bees and butterflies.” Wang Ba murmured.

He Yan ran to Li Kuang’s yard in one breath. Today, Li Kuang’s house was guarded by soldiers. She was shocked, and she was about to rush in, but was stopped by the soldiers at the door: “What are you doing? The adults have orders, and no one else is allowed. Enter!”

He Yan stared at his eyes firmly: “What is he doing inside?”

Her eyes were cold like ice skates. The soldier was bluffed by her. Before she had time to speak, she saw Zhao Shiming also come over. Seeing such a scene, she frowned and said, “Why are you arguing again? This is Master Xiaohe. open.”

The two soldiers seemed to have recovered, and then they looked at He Yan again, insisting in their tone: “The adults have orders, no one else is allowed to enter, and Wu Anlang is the same.”

He Yan: “Get away!”

She drew the saber around one of them’s waist, and the two reached out to stop her. Where could he stop her, He Yan knocked the two men to the ground with a palm, kicked the door and strode in, and as soon as she entered, stunned.

In addition to Li Kuang, there were many lieutenants and soldiers in the room, and a group of women were kneeling beside the chair. These women are neatly dressed, some with tears on their faces, and some with calm expressions, but He Yan still remembers one or two faces. It was the big Wei prisoner she rescued from the Utuo who attacked the enemy camp that night.

On the most central floor, there is a woman lying, her body is covered by a white cloth. You can’t see who it is, but she is holding a wreath tightly in her hand, small and delicate, dotted with scattered purples.

He Yan’s eyes suddenly turned red.
