Rebirth of a Star General - Chapter 182

Chapter 182

Back in his room, He Yan lay on the bed, tossing and turning.

The window was open, and a little bit of wind came in, making her sober. The previous conversation with Xiao Jue seemed to be still in my ears.

It turned out that Xiao Jue actually came to the appointment the night she left the He family to join the army. It’s just that fate was wrong, and it happened to be missed by them. As soon as he missed it, there was no chance. Just as He Yan didn’t know that the one who secretly taught his swordsmanship was Xiao Jue, it is impossible for Xiao Jue today to know that the person he secretly assisted in the past has changed. .

How hard she tried to conceal her identity, how much she wanted to thank him as a classmate back then. It turns out that Xiao Jue and her have had so many romances in the past and this life, but the fate is short, but it is now…

He Yan sat up, thought for a while, and made up his mind to collapse, walked to the table, lighted the oil lamp with a fire book, Zhao Shiming was a literati, and the four treasures of the study were everywhere in the room. She rubbed the ink and found the paper. , Sit down at the table, pick up a pen and write slowly.

…

All matters of Rundu were settled in three days. It was time for Xiao Jue and his party to leave.

Before He Yan left, he found Zhao Shiming.

After the Qiluo incident, He Yan didn’t say a word with Li Kuang. Every time she saw Li Kuang, she would think of the sweet girl with dimples on her cheeks when she smiled. The same was true when she wanted to come to Li Kuang. Is to avoid her gaze.

So she didn’t plan to mention some things with Li Kuang.

Zhao Shiming was sitting in the house reading official documents, and Rundu was besieged by the Utuo. These days, the merchants in the city walked out, and everything was messed up. Now that the Utuo is defeated and Rundu returns to peace, it will take time to restore the peaceful days of the past.

“Master Zhao.” He Yan approached the room and called him.

Zhao Shiming raised his head from the official document, saw He Yan, he was taken aback for a moment, then stood up, and smiled enthusiastically: “Why Master Xiao He has time to come and sit with me today.”

Zhao Shiming liked He Yan very much. He was a literati, and he could not go with a rude man like Li Kuang. Xiao Jue and Yan He were aloof and arrogant. He Yan was different. This young man was young, smart and brave, kind-hearted and loyal, and handsome and handsome. At first glance, he was gentle and charming. If his granddaughter is too young, Zhao Shiming would like to recruit this boy to be his grandson-in-law.

He Yan smiled and said, “Master Zhao is polite. I’m here to bid farewell to Master Zhao. Tomorrow I will follow the governor back to Shuojing. I am in Rundu these days. Thank you Master Zhao for taking care of it.”

Zhao Shiming likes this boy even more in his heart, and see, he deliberately said goodbye to himself. It was very polite, and he answered with a smile: “Master Xiaohe, don’t say that, you are the benefactor who saved Rundu. This time, when you came to Rundu, there was nothing to entertain. Instead, Master Xiaohe couldn’t bear it. Don’t be wronged. If Mr. Xiaohe comes to Rundu again in the future, Zhao will definitely be a good hospitality. This time, Mr. Xiaohe should not care about the rudeness.”

He Yan held up Zhao Shiming’s hand that wanted to salute, and said, “The younger generation dare not.”

Is it worthy of being a junior? Zhao Shiming was stunned. Before he came back to his senses, he saw the boy in front of him looking at him, his expression became solemn: “Actually, I have something to ask Master Zhao for help today.”

Zhao Shiming is no stranger to this expression. He Yan asked his people for help to spread the letter to Yan He. Is this asking him again? Zhao Shiming felt very happy. He Yan looked for him instead of Li Kuang, which shows that he is treating him as his own. What Wu Anlang asks for is generally a matter of effort, and it is a great honor for him to have a place to help. Thinking of this, Zhao Shiming smiled and said, “Master Xiaohe, but it’s okay. Zhao must do his best.”

As soon as he finished his words, Zhao Shiming saw the man in front of him licking his robe and knelt down to him.

“You…” He was startled.

“Then, thank Master Zhao.”

…

The servants outside didn’t know what the people inside were talking about. After a while, when He Yan walked out the door, the servants went in to deliver tea, only to see Zhao Shiming sitting down at the table with a trance and sloppy eyes.

“Master?” The next person called him.

Zhao Shiming came back to his senses, swallowed, and said, “Nothing, nothing.”

He squeezed the letter paper in his hand.

On the other end, He Yan walked out the door and let out a deep sigh. She didn’t know whether her decision was right or wrong, but at the moment, it seemed that this was the best way to get Xiao Jue out.

A person walked towards him, as delicate as a flower, and it was Yingxiang. Ying Xiang saw He Yan, and Chao He Yan leaned, “Master He.”

She is now no longer called He Yan “Master He”, but “Daren He”.

“Girl Yingxiang.” He Yan replied, seeing that she was holding something like clothes in her hand and couldn’t help but glance twice.

Ying Xiang noticed her gaze and said with a smile: “The fourth son asked the servants to tidy up, and we will leave for Shuojing tomorrow. Rundu’s sun is very good, and the clothes will dry soon.”

“Back to Beijing?” He Yan frowned slightly, “Are you also leaving tomorrow?”

Chu Zhao was originally trapped in the city because of the Wutuo siege on the way back to Shuojing. Now that the Wutuo are gone, they should naturally leave. But I didn’t expect to be walking with Xiao Jue in one day.

“Yes,” Ying Xiang replied with a smile, “The Fourth Young Master is walking with everyone, and Governor Xiao also knows about this. There will be other Utuo people along the way, so if there are more people, there will be a caregiver.”

Xiao Jue was not the one who wanted to take care of Chu Zhao, but since Xiao Jue knew about it, it was useless for her to say anything. When Li Kuang wanted to kill the captured women, Chu Zhao also stood up and spoke. No matter what his purpose was, He Yan should thank him on the face of it.

“Thank you for that day in front of Master Chief Soldier, the Fourth Young Master stood by the captured women.” He Yan said.

Ying Xiang’s eyebrows were crooked: “Okay, He Daren.”

After He Yan left, Ying Xiang went back to the house with her clothes in her hands. Chu Zhao was standing in front of the window. Ying Xiang put her clothes in the furoshiki. She moved quickly, but she packed everything away before a while.

“Four sons,” Ying Xiang walked to Chu Zhao’s side and said in a low voice: “Just now on the road, the servant girl met Miss He. Miss He asked the servant girl to speak for her. In front of Mrs. Li, thank you for standing up for her. The captured women speak.”

Chu Zhao smiled, noncommittal.

After a moment of silence, Ying Xiang said, “The Fourth Young Master shouldn’t have done that.”

Chu Zhao: “Oh?”

“There may be a grandfather in the city. The grandfather will be unhappy to see the fourth son like this…”

Xu Jingfu is a person who hates other people’s opinions. Since the run of the capital had nothing to do with him, Chu Zhao not only spoke, but also carried Xu Jingfu out. Once Xu Jingfu knew it, he would definitely be unhappy with Chu Zhao.

“Just do it, don’t worry.” Chu Zhao smiled slightly, “As for the master, I will explain it myself.”

“Why did the son do that?” Ying Xiang asked softly, “Even if the son doesn’t make a move, no one can embarrass her because of her skill.”

Chu Zhao didn’t answer, but looked at the sky outside the window.

why?

It was probably her appearance in front of those women, which reminded him of the appearance of Ye Runmei in front of him when someone insulted him in the flower house when he was young. He had few protected moments in his life, except for Ye Runmei, only He Yan.

She protects those women just as she protects him in Jiyang. One person protects another person, has no selfishness, no blood, and even no close relationship, just because she thinks she should do it, so she does it.

The publicity is enviable, and the upright and jealous, like a beam of light, even people who are close can not help being illuminated. So he stood up at that moment, thinking that he was also an upright and brave righteous man.

only……

After all, he is not light, just a shadow.

…

The day to leave Rundu has arrived.

Li Kuang and Zhao Shiming went out of the city to send them off. The soldiers and horses of Nanfu Soldier and Liangzhouwei did not follow Xiao Jue. They rushed back to Beijing, and only Yanhe’s soldiers and horses were taken away.

The city was bleak. Although there is sunlight, it also seems to be covered with a light gray. He Yan felt in his heart that when she left Rundu last time, she was still “Vice General He”, and she had chats and laughs with Li Kuang, and now that they left Rundu this time, they are not like before.

Time passed quickly, and the vines in Runducheng had already grown new bushes. A group of people stood at the gate of the city, and He Yan was about to get on his horse. At this moment, he suddenly heard the voice of someone behind him: “Master Xiao He!”

He Yan turned his head to look.

I saw many people gathered in front of the gate of Rundu City. A group of women walked out from the end of the crowd. The woman who called her just now was the woman in the lead.

They were dressed in neat clothes, with unhealed scars on their faces. It was the prisoners He Yan rescued from the Utuo on the day of the night attack on the enemy camp. They were also the women who had been protected from Li Kuangjian at that time. He Yan, the woman who was speaking, remembered that it was the day she shed tears to persuade herself not to conflict with Li Kuang and sacrifice voluntarily.

But later He Yan also learned from Zhao Shiming that the woman originally lived in Zhuangzi outside the city. After the Utuo came and killed her husband and son, she was the only one in the family. She thought that she had been ruined by the Utuo, was afraid of the strange look outside, and because the family was not there, she had already had a desire to die. So when Li Kuang came to her, she was the fastest to accept it.

On that day, if He Yan hadn’t stood up, if Xiao Jue hadn’t arrived, perhaps these women would have died under Li Kuang’s sword.

Li Kuang’s expression was a little uncomfortable. There are many things that I don’t think in the current environment. After the things are over, and when you look back, you will find how crazy he is.

The women walked up to He Yan, knelt down one after another, without saying a word, and knocked a few heads at He Yan.

He Yan was startled: “You…”

“Thank you Master Xiaohe,” they said.

The spirits of the women are much better than those of the past few days. Perhaps it was the food that Yan He brought that made them full, or perhaps it was what He Yan said that day that gave them the courage to live.

Zhao Shiming walked to He Yan and said in a low voice: “Master Xiaohe, these women, who have family members, have already gone home. The homeless are now being placed together by the government. They will work as weaving and weaving. In the future… the situation that Master Xiaohe was worried about will not happen.”

He solemnly promised He Yan: “Zhao will take care of them.”

He Yan felt a little relieved and bowed to Zhao Shiming: “Thank you, Lord Zhao.”

Zhao Shiming stroked his beard and smiled, “Yes, since I am from Rundu, as Rundu’s parents, I should arrange them well.”

He Yan also laughed. Many things in the world are always getting better. As long as someone does it, change will eventually happen, no matter how small the change is.

She lifted up the headed woman and whispered softly: “Let them get up too, and live a good life in the future. Remember, I save your lives. Don’t give up your lives at will at any time.”

The woman nodded.

Yan He stood under the city gate, holding his chest and said: “How can this kid with the surname He be more popular than you?” He squinted at Xiao Jue, “Isn’t he your subordinate? How can you pay for it?” Not as good as him?”

Lin Shuanghe smiled and said: “Brother He is gentle and gentle, of course everyone likes it. There are not many people in the world who can think of others, and few can draw their swords for the safety of others.”

Yan He couldn’t understand the appearance of Lin Shuanghe not doing his job properly, and sneered: “What’s the matter with Brother He? Are you Liangzhou Weili all in such a mess?”

“Chaos?” Lin Shuanghe nodded, “There is more chaos, but you don’t know it.”

Ying Xiang stood beside Chu Zhao, quietly watching the girl bid farewell to the rescued women and got into the carriage. The people in Rundu City were next to those city soldiers. Although they didn’t say anything, their eyes followed He Yan, full of gratitude.

She is indeed a lovely girl, whether in Jiyang or Rundu.

“Let’s go.” Chu Zhao turned around and followed his carriage.

The city gate opened, soldiers marched, and the sunlight shone far away at the end of the long road, like a bright avenue, leading to the future.

…

Starting from Rundu, it takes ten days to reach Jinling. After Jinling, go straight to Shuojing.

Among the bushes, the soldiers and horses on the way temporarily sat down to rest. Lin Shuanghe was watching He Yan roasting bird eggs. He was a young master who didn’t touch the sun with his fingers, and he was naturally spoiled by his body. Naturally, he couldn’t do these rough jobs. Although Yan He could also do it, He Yan had seen the fish he grilled before, and it was so dark that it was hard to eat. Later, he simply came by himself.

Xiao Jue was talking to Chi Wu on the other side. He Yan and Lin Shuanghe were sitting together. Lin Shuanghe looked at her proficient movements and exclaimed: “Brother He, you really went to the hall, down to the kitchen, overturned the wall, and beaten. I’ve been gangsters. I’ve seen so many–” He lowered his voice, “Woman, no one can compare to you, really, sister, you are the number one in my heart when you come to Shuojing.”

He Yan threw the baked bird eggs into his arms, “…a prize.”

Lin Shuanghe hurriedly peeled her shells, and asked her, “Wait to Shuojing, what do you want to do? Liangzhou has nothing, Shuojing is prosperous, if you have time, I will take you to the market every day for my brother.”

When is the time, this person is still thinking about playing, He Yan was speechless for a moment, but remembered another thing, she asked Lin Shuanghe: “By the way, why did you come to Rundu this time and Doctor Shen didn’t come with you? She… …Should go back to Shuojing too.”

When He Yan left Liangzhouwei, he clicked on Shen Muxue’s acupoint. Although it was to protect her, he was not sure what happened to Shen Muxue afterwards. This time Xiao Jue and Yan He came, Lin Shuanghe came, but did not see Shen Muxue. But Xiao Jue had to return to Shuojing, and Shen Muxue had no reason to stay in Liangzhouwei alone.

“Doctor Shen?” Lin Shuanghe replied naturally, “She was a girl. When Huai Jin and I came to Rundu, it was endless day and night. How can she stand this, take her, I’m afraid it will slow us down. Feet. So I don’t take it anymore. Medical officer, I am enough. Huai Jin asked Shen Han and the others to bring Doctor Shen to come back.”

He Yan nodded. The next moment, Lin Shuanghe’s face suddenly approached and looked at her narrowly: “Why did you mention Doctor Shen alone? You are jealous?”

“What jealousy do you eat?” He Yan was so scared that he almost clasped a fork on his head. Hearing this, he just sat upright and calmly said: “I clicked her acupuncture point before I left, and I feel ashamed.”

“Is this really the case?” Lin Shuanghe deliberately prolonged his voice, “In this case, our Huai Jin’s painstaking efforts will be in vain…”

He Yan: “What pains?”

Lin Shuanghe put a bird’s egg into his mouth and said slowly: “You don’t care about it after you say it, it’s better not to say it.”

He Yan really anxiously wanted to grab Lin Shuanghe’s head and shake it vigorously to see what it was shaking out. It’s just that Lin Shuanghe is a ghostly man on the issue of men and women, and he approached Xiao Jue again. He really wanted to get some definite news. He turned his head and told Xiao Jue, even his friends didn’t have to do it, but it was extremely embarrassing.

She had no choice but to sit with restraint. Even though her heart was full of anger, her face was calm and calm: “Then I really don’t care, don’t say it.”

Lin Shuanghe looked at her pretending appearance, tried her best to endure a smile, and said in his heart, to see how long you could endure.

Young man… hey, young man!

…

In Liangzhou, thousands of miles away, Weisuo is busy at the moment.

Liang Ping is helping to check the missing items in the room, and they will leave for Shuojing soon. Some soldiers and horses were left in Liangzhou Weili, and some were going to Beijing. Shen Han wants to leave with him, Liang Ping, Ma Damei and other coaches have to stay in Liangzhouwei.

Shen Muxue naturally also had to leave.

Several days ago, when Xiao Jue and Lin Shuanghe were about to leave for Rundu, Shen Muxue wanted to go together, but Xiao Jue refused. He refused without saying why. Lin Shuanghe on one side saw that Shen Muxue’s face was ugly, and smiled roundly: “Ms. Shen, Rundu is in critical condition. Huai Jin and I will go all the way, eating and sleeping, day and night, you are a girl’s house, how can you go with us? If you stumble and stumble, even if you don’t care about it, you will be unbearable in the next.”

“Anyway, Master Shen and they will set off in the near future. When you come back together, Master Shen will take care of you. The soldiers and horses are slow and there are many people. To protect your safety, Huai Jin and I are at ease. Are they?”

Shen Muxue didn’t say anything, Lin Shuanghe just tacitly agreed and turned to leave with a smile. Shen Muxue looked at his back and asked, “Master Lin, Master Xiao Er went to Rundu for He Yan.”

Lin Shuanghe paused and looked at her with real doubts: “Why do you think this way?”

Shen Muxue pursed her lips and said nothing. She knew that it was ridiculous to say that, Xiao Jue was definitely not a person who changed easily for someone, but…but, she always felt uneasy.

The voice outside was about to interrupt her memory, Liang Ping was calling her: “Doctor Shen, is there anything else to be carried in the carriage?”

Shen Muxue recovered, and went out while responding. Liang Ping stood outside, his face flushed from the sun, and his head was sweating profusely. He was holding a stack of boxes in his hand, and was staggering towards the carriage. Xiao Jue was in a hurry when he left, and nothing in the house was cleaned up. Before leaving, he told Shen Han to take away all the things in his house when he returned to Shuojing.

Fortunately, Xiao Jue didn’t have a lot of things himself, except for some books and clothes.

Shen Muxue saw Liang Ping walking staggering, and said, “I’ll help you.”

Liang Ping’s face turned even redder, “No need, no need, the chief coach told me that these are the things of the governor, let me sort them out by myself. How can I bother the doctor woman?”

He sighed in his heart, Miss Shen has a very good heart, and she has no airs. As a lady of everybody, I don’t dislike these warriors like them.

Shen Muxue didn’t know what Liang Ping was thinking at the moment. He just listened to Xiao Jue’s things, and said: “If you take so much at a time, it will inevitably fall. Nothing, I will help you.”

As he said, he helped pick up the top box, which was not big. Follow Liang Ping to go forward.

It was too late for Liang Ping to stop it. Seeing that Shen Muxue did not appear to be struggling, he relaxed a little. Smiled and said, “Thank you Doctor Shen, then.”

The two walked to the carriage together, Liang Ping asked Shen Muxue to get on the carriage first, and then move it by himself. It was hot outside, Shen Muxue nodded and agreed. She sat quietly holding the box in her hand, looking at the soldiers who were rushing in the distance, her eyes fell on the box in her arms.

This box looks ordinary, I don’t know what’s in it. Xiao Jue’s things were already small. Since Shen Han is going to take it back to Shuojing, it can be seen that it is very important. However, she picked up the box and weighed it. The box was too light, as if there was nothing in it, could it be empty?

She was rarely curious in her heart. It shouldn’t be Xiao Jue’s official documents or letters. He would only carry these things with him. If you open it and read it…should it not get in the way?

Shen Muxue put her fingers on the box and looked out of the carriage. The soldiers were far away from here, and no one saw her movements.

With a “click”, the box was opened.

There are some pens, inkstones, paperweights and so on. It was a small thing, she was about to close it, her eyes suddenly condensed, and after a while, she reached out and took out two things from it.

The same is a dough person, the dough has dried out, the color is gray, and it looks like a woman, with a smart smile and a moving look. The other is a woodcarving painting. On the painting, the warship is overturned and the fire is fierce. Standing on the bow of the ship, the general is heroic and familiar.

That is a female general.
