Rebirth of a Star General - Chapter 88

Chapter 88

Cheng Lisu still couldn’t believe her ears when she got the promise. After waiting for He Yan to repeat it several times, and then vowed to believe that she really wanted to help herself, Cheng Lisu could only believe it.

He poured a cup of tea for He Yan, and offered it with both hands: “Brother, you really saved my brother’s life! If there is any use for me in the future, I will go to the sword and the fire, and the little brother will also be willing to do so. !”

He Yan just wanted to speak, and he immediately answered: “I know that my eldest brother’s wish is to enter the Jiuqi Camp and build a career. Don’t worry, when this is over, I will definitely be in front of my uncle every day, even if it is my day. Copy books daily, I also want to help my eldest brother get this done!”

“…I just wanted to say,” He Yan stopped the child’s ecstasy, “I will go to the banquet for you. I agreed, but you have to convince your uncle.”

Is Xiao Jue someone who can agree so easily? After all, this thing sounds weird.

“Don’t worry about that,” Cheng Lisu leaned forward with joy, and said: “I have already told my uncle before, and I dare to come to you after my uncle agrees.”

“Xiao Jue agrees?” He Yan was taken aback.

“Perhaps I feel ashamed of not allowing you to enter Jiuqiying before, and give you a chance to express yourself.” Cheng Lisu looked at He Yan sincerely, “So you see, the time and place are right and the people are in harmony. Big brother, you replace me. Going to the banquet, this is God’s arrangement.”

He Yan didn’t have time to pay attention to Cheng Lisu’s gibberish. He was only surprised that Xiao Jue agreed so easily. It didn’t seem to be his style of doing things. Could there be any pitfalls?

Seeing He Yan’s silence, Cheng Lisu became anxious again: “Brother, don’t you regret it?”

“No.” He Yan said helplessly: “I’m just thinking about how to pretend to be you, after all, I’m different from you.”

“Don’t worry, that Yuan Baozhen has never seen my appearance, and will not be dismantled. But I have to explain to you a little bit so as not to be seen. I like to eat chicken with mushrooms and I hate it the most. Stem rice porridge. I don’t like people to follow. I have a rash on my face after eating peanuts. I have to take a bath every day, change clothes frequently, and use incense…”

He Yan said that he only saw the arrogant, extravagant and prosperous life of a rich kid, and he shook his head unconsciously.

Cheng Lisu talked about the incense stick time, and then he said that he was dry and dry. He picked up the tea and hurriedly moistened his throat, and then he came back to life.

“Big brother, do you remember what I just said?”

He Yan: “…remember.” She said: “Is there anything else to explain? Let’s talk about it together.”

“Let me think about it.” Cheng Lisu sat on the chair and looked at He Yan. He Yan was about the same age as him, and he looked like he was overwhelmed among the Liangzhou recruits. It’s not clumsy and strong in the slightest, and looks thinner and weaker. But this is exactly the same as him, if he is dressed as a rich man…

“Almost forgot the important thing!” Cheng Lisu patted his forehead, “You can’t go to the banquet if you dress like this. Anyway, I’m also the young master of Ujiro’s mansion. Why don’t you dress so shabby, you wait. He ran to the back room “drivingly”, not knowing what he was trying to fiddle with, but not long after, he came out with a baggage.

“Here are some clothes I picked. You wear them. We are not too bad in figure. You should be able to wear them. Even if they are fake, brother, you have to dress better. I am not only good-looking. It looks better, and there are no other advantages. If even this advantage is obliterated, wouldn’t it be useless?”

He Yan was surprised that he could say “embroidered pillow” so refreshing and so right and confident.

He turned around again and took a box in the drawer, put something in it, and handed it to He Yan, saying, “Here are all hairpins, fans and jade pendants, and there is enough to do in the play, and these are indispensable. ”

He Yan: “You are really thoughtful.”

Cheng Lisu scratched his head in embarrassment, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”

He Yan put away the baggage and the box, and then asked, “You really have already agreed with your uncle. Didn’t you lie to me?”

“No no,” Cheng Lisu said, “If you come here tomorrow morning, you will probably be able to set off.”

“So urgent?” He Yan was startled.

“It was originally going to be a few days away. Yuan Baozhen hasn’t arrived in Liangzhou yet, but my uncle has to go to the city to find a craftsman to repair his Wanxiangqin, so I went earlier.”

He Yan thought of the piano that he had crushed, and stopped making a sound.

Cheng Lisu patted her on the shoulder, “Brother He, it’s all up to you this time, thank you!”

…

He Yan returned to the recruits’ shophouse with a bag full of things. Wang Ba and the others hadn’t left yet, they were eating the moon ball that He Yan had brought from Cheng Lisu last night. Seeing He Yan came back with something in his hand, the king said sourly, “Oh, are you going to be respected again?”

“Master Cheng gave you something to eat again?” Wheat stared at the baggage in He Yan’s hand, and his saliva flowed out, “What’s so delicious about such a big bag?”

He Yan put the burden on the table heavily. The furoshiki was loosely tied, and it spread out after such a meal, revealing the contents inside. It’s not the food that everyone thinks, but some clothes and accessories.

This was unexpected. After a long while, Hong Shan asked hesitantly: “Ahe, what did Mr. Cheng give you clothes for? We are in the military camp, and we can’t wear normal uniforms either.”

“I will go to the city with Governor Xiao tomorrow to do things,” He Yan said, “Probably I am afraid that my clothes will be too shabby and I will lose the face of Governor Xiao, so Mr. Cheng sent me a few clothes to decorate the facade.”

“You and Governor Xiao?” Huang Xiong looked at him, “This is a good thing, why don’t you look so happy.”

If nothing happened last night, He Yan should also be very happy, after all, he could listen to a lot of news by Xiao Jue’s side. It’s just that after what happened last night, I’m afraid Xiao Jue is even more displeased with her. Who knows if something is wrong and annoys the second son.

Can only bite the bullet first.

“I’m so happy I don’t know what to make.” She replied.

The crowd asked her a little more, and finally sent them all away. At night, He Yan was still thinking about this before he went up and down.

The reason why she agreed to help Cheng Lisu go to the Laoshizi banquet, of course, was not because she had a deep brotherhood with Cheng Lisu, nor was she so brave enough, but because she heard Yuan Baozhen’s name.

He Yan once met Yuan Baozhen. She had to appoint General Feihong, He Rufei received the reward for her, and He Yan recovered her daughter and once met this person in the He family. Yuan Baozhen stood with He Yuansheng and his son at that time, and He Yan also saluted him.

Look at He Rufei’s tone of speaking with him, he is also very familiar. He Yan thought at the time that He Rufei just “received the reward”, in fact, in the court of Shuojing, he had never gotten close to other colleagues. He didn’t expect to have close friends so soon.

Now that He Rufei’s friend came to Liangzhou, he happened to have a little relationship with “Cheng Lisu”. If he could take this opportunity to get close and get some news about He Rufei, it might be helpful to her future. If she wants to stand out and reach a position where someone can listen to her words, she must make a contribution in the military. But Liangzhou is thousands of miles away from the capital, and it is too far away from the He family. A lot of news can’t come.

When Yuan Baozhen arrived in Liangzhou, he was dozing off and giving him a pillow. I just don’t know what Xiao Jue meant, but he would actually agree with Cheng Lisu’s incredible approach. He Yan now couldn’t understand Xiao Jue more and more. Thinking he would order himself into the forward camp, he ordered Leihou, thinking that he would not let himself pretend to be Cheng Lisu, but he agreed.

There was the sound of Hong Shan snoring nearby, He Yan turned over, closed his eyes, nothing more, since he couldn’t think of the result, he just had to follow him personally. This road is facing each other day and night, and there is time to study what Xiao Jue thinks. Soldiers come to block the water and cover the earth. She, He Yan, may not be afraid of it.

…

Different from He Yan’s chicness, Shen Han looked surprised in the Liangzhou Weisuo’s room, and after a while, the surprise on his face became anxious again.

“The Governor, how can you take He Yan to the city? His identity is still unknown, and he will be by your side. If he shoots you…”

“I won’t be threatened by him yet.” Xiao Jue said.

“But……”

The candle in the silver lamp on the table was beaten by the wind and almost went out. He dialed the wick, and the room became bright again.

“If he is Xu Jingfu’s person, he might show his feet when he comes to the banquet with me this time. Putting him in the sanctuary is really unusual. You may not be parried. It is better to put him safely by my side.”

“Besides,” he curled his lips, “He Yan prides himself on his extraordinary skills. This Hongmen banquet can be used as a kicking brick.”

Shen Han’s heart was stunned, Xiao Jue was going to use He Yan as a substitute for the dead ghost.

Dudu Xiao is really the Dudu Xiao, he doesn’t even remember his old feelings, and I don’t know how He Yan angered Xiao Jue in the first place. Thinking of this, Shen Han felt a trace of sympathy for He Yan in his heart.

Xiao Jue said: “After I leave tomorrow, you will protect Cheng Lisu and don’t let him run around. The size of the guard will be left to you for the time being.”

Shen Han put away the reverie in his heart, and said: “Yes!”

…

Early the next morning, when Mai got up, he found that the bed beside him was empty.

He rubbed his eyes, it was still early, and everyone else in the room was still awake. On He Yan’s bed, the bedding was neatly folded, and the people had disappeared. Wheat wonders, is He Yan already gone? But yesterday, he didn’t say that he only set off at the hour of the day, but the time is not yet up.

After a while, everyone got up one after another, only to find that He Yan was missing. Hong Shan said: “This kid won’t leave now, right? Don’t even say hello?”

“Did you leave because you were afraid of waking us up?” Mai tentatively asked.

“Who knows, Shishi, have you seen him?” Hong Shan asked.

Stone also shook his head: “No.”

Several people looked at each other, all at a loss. Having said that, they couldn’t just wait for He Yan here, and they would have to run after a while, so they got up and washed their faces one after another.

Mai Mai had already put on his clothes, and took the lead to pack them up. He pushed the door and ran out, planning to grab the hot dry cakes. Shi and Hongshan were still washing their faces. Suddenly they heard Mai Mai from outside shouting: “Big Brother, Brother Shan——”

“What’s wrong?” Hong Shan wiped the drops of water on his face. “We wash our faces.”

“You guys come out and see!” Wheat’s voice couldn’t contain his excitement.

Hong Shan glanced at the stone in wonder. The stone said he didn’t know. He shook the water in his hand and walked out of the house. He said: “Mai, can you not do this next time…”

His voice stopped abruptly.

He Yan stood facing him and said with a smile: “Brother Shan, how do I look?”

Hong Shan opened his mouth and didn’t speak for a while. The other recruits in the room also came out one after another at this moment. Seeing He Yan, they surrounded him all at once and said in a rush.

“Good-looking! Very good-looking, He Yan, you look like the young master of a wealthy family in the capital!”

“It’s not just the young master of the wealthy family, I think it’s not an exaggeration to come out of the palace.”

“You can pull it down, it’s the same as someone who has seen someone out of the palace.”

“I haven’t seen it before. I imagine the people who come out of the palace look like this!”

“These clothes are not cheap, He Yan, can you wear them for me?”

“Bah! Can you wear it out? Don’t spoil your clothes and go!”

He Yan was surrounded by everyone and let them look at it. Several people from Hongshan stood far away. Mai looked at He Yan with bright eyes and said, “Brother Ahe is so good-looking!”

“It’s no wonder that people rely on clothes, horses and saddles. You see, the mountains and dews don’t show up on weekdays. When you wear these little clothes and hairpins, they look different from us.” Hong Shan touched his chin and asked. Stone, “isn’t it?”

Stone nodded: “Yes.”

He Yan allowed them to look at enough before he straightened the burden on his shoulders. He smiled and said: “Before leaving, I still come over to show you. The brethren said I look good, so I don’t worry. I didn’t lose our cold when I said it. The face of the state guard.” She waved her hand, “Then I’m leaving!”

Everyone waved goodbye to her.

On the other side, Cheng Lisu also left the house early.

Shen Han was talking to Xiao Jue in the yard, and Lu Er bowed his head to eat forage next to him. Cheng Lisu went to the stables to pick for a long time before picking out a group of beautiful little red horses. He felt that these horses looked cute and airy, and matched him well.

“You don’t go, what do you pick up the horse for?” Xiao Jue was noncommittal.

“Although I won’t go, my eldest brother is going on my behalf. You can’t let people say from behind: The young master at Uji Naorou’s mansion is good, but he is not good. I always talk about exploiting strengths and avoiding weaknesses. The strengths, of course, must be promoted.”

Xiao Jue sneered: “What should I do? With your elder brother’s appearance, it seems that he can’t help you grow.”

“Uncle, what you said is wrong,” Cheng Lisu looked at him seriously: “I have read carefully, my eldest brother, he should be considered good. Although not comparable to you and me, in Liangzhou Weili, it is also considered good. Outstanding.”

Listening to the chat between the two uncles and nephews, Shen Han was speechless for a while. When he saw someone coming in front of him, he said, “He Yan is here!”

The two speaking people looked sideways together, and their eyes suddenly lit up.

In the early morning of autumn, the air is clear and the cool autumn wind blows, refreshing. The sun hadn’t fully emerged, only a small head appeared, and a ray of golden light fell on the young man, making her exceptionally outstanding.

The boy wore a dark red cicada-patterned brocade robe with a belt around his waist. It is common to see that she is too thin and weak, wearing Cheng Lisu’s clothes, but completely concealing the fragility, leaving only romantic. She was born beautifully, tied her long hair with a carved wooden hairpin, clean and energetic, with a leisurely pace, carrying a baggage, and she did not see the shadow of the sweaty recruits on the martial arts field. A young man, a frown and a smile are poetic.

The young man walked up to a few people and opened the folding fan in her hands with a “pop”. The folding fan was floating. Her smile was more eye-catching than the landscape painting on the folding fan, and her voice was deliberately lowered: “Sorry, I’m late.”

Cheng Lisu stared at him with wide eyes. After a long while, he finally came back to his senses. He walked around He Yan, overjoyed and said: “Brother, I didn’t expect you to be such a beautiful man. Liangzhou Wei is really such a beautiful man. You have buried your grace! I look like this, you are almost catching up with me!”

He Yan was proud of his heart, and still humblely said: “Where and where, I’ve been rewarded.”

She went to the riverside early this morning and changed her clothes when there was no one. Cheng Lisu’s clothes were mostly yellow. This boy loves such bright colors, but He Yan feels a little frivolous in his clothes. It was easy to find such a color that was not so ridiculous, and picked up a simple hairpin in the box. After looking at the riverside for a long time, in order to avoid accidents, he also specially showed Hongshan and the others.

The recruits of Liangzhouwei unanimously applauded, and it is not bad to come. She had to wear a mask when she was dressed as a man in her previous life. Now that she can be so generous and generous, she also gave birth to a strange tension.

On one side, Shen Han looked at He Yan, taking a breath in his heart. He was still thinking that He Yan is just a teenager, even if he had an old relationship with Xiao Jue in the past, why did he fall into Xiao Jue’s eyes? After all, there are countless people admiring Xiao Jue’s stunning beauty, and now seeing He Yan who looks like this, he understands a little bit in his heart. It’s just a woman. It’s not common for a man to have such an appearance. Besides, this young man has outstanding skills and good temperament. If his identity is suspicious, in fact… it’s not surprising that he is standing with Dudu Xiao.

Cheng Lisu was still talking non-stop, and He Yan looked at Xiao Jue, but saw Xiao Jue standing in the same place, his eyes calmly sweeping over her, no appreciation at all, and a sudden narrow heart, so he walked to Xiao Jue’s side. .

“The Governor,” she folded her fan half open, and hid her face and smiled, just like a protégé who molested the Liang family’s women, “how do you look at me?”

The young man looked at her indifferently. After a while, he bent slightly and bowed his head almost to her ear. His voice was a little lower and muffled than an ordinary teenager when he was a teenager, but now he is getting older with a trace of sloppy magnetism.

“You actually…”

He Yan seemed to be able to feel the heat exhaled by the other party, and He Yan felt a bashful look on his face inexplicably. He wanted to listen to this face and boast in such a tone. It was really not everyone can withstand it.

“…It’s shorter than Cheng Lisu.” He finished the rest of the sentence.

He Yan: “…”

He Yan took two steps back and looked at him incredulously. Shouldn’t ordinary people say “you are so eye-catching” or “you are so amazing”?

Shorter than Cheng Lisu?

The beautiful and jade young man seemed to be not bad enough. He looked at her, curled his lips and said, “Also, your belt is reversed.”

He brushed his body and went forward. He Yan lowered his head to see that Cheng Lisu’s clothes were complicated in style. She had never worn this before, and she didn’t know how to tie it. Hearing the reminder at this moment, she hurriedly solved it. When Cheng Lisu saw this, he could see clearly, and then came to help: “Ah, I forgot to tell you that my belt is different from others, you have to tie it like this…”

He Yan grinned his teeth while looking at Xiao Jue’s back.

It is absolutely impossible for Xiao Jue to be Cheng Lisu’s stand-in because she was guilty of fighting for the flag. He Yan seriously suspected that he brought himself by his side just to facilitate the humiliation and torture.

This is really a natural enemy.

…

Liangzhou Weisuo went to the city and rode endlessly, which took about three hours. Starting in the morning, it is already afternoon. Apart from He Yan and Xiao Jue, there was also a guard named Feinu.

Probably because she was not really Cheng Lisu, she even omitted the carriage. Riding all the way, I didn’t even care about eating, and in the afternoon, I finally arrived in the city.

The last time He Yan came from Liangzhou city, he had just arrived here from Shuojing with the recruits, but he didn’t stay in the city and went directly to the guard post under Baiyue Mountain. Now she put on the clothes of an ordinary young master’s house and came to the bustling market. Unlike Shuojing, Liangzhou has a different style.

This place can be regarded as the eastern part, with four distinct seasons. Although it is not as bustling as the capital, it can be regarded as lively. Pedestrians rushed to and fro, and when they arrived in the city, they didn’t have to ride so fast.

But Xiao Jue didn’t come to play in the city. A few people went to an inn, which should be regarded as an extremely luxurious one in Liangzhou City, with a total of three floors. The magnificent and magnificent repairs outside came to the entrance of the inn, Xiao Jue got off his horse, the man helped lead the horse to the stable, and a few people walked into the lobby together.

To be honest, in the past and present, although He Yangui is the eldest young master of the He family, he has never stayed in a particularly expensive inn. Xiao Jue is as extravagant as his nephew, and he must be so particular about where he rests. He Yan thought this way, and heard Xiao Jue say to the shopkeeper: “Two rooms.”

“Two rooms?” He Yan was surprised, “Me and Feinu are in the same room?”

After getting out of the barracks, can’t she let her be alone? Cheng Lisu also told her to take a bath every day. Feinu is in the room, how should she wash it?

“Otherwise?” Xiao Jue stared at her, and asked, “Do you want to be with me?”

“No, no,” He Yan said: “Then I’ll stay with Feinu.” A joke, she wouldn’t be so self-aware. After all, the second son of Xiao Bing Qing Yujie, how could he live with such crude people like her. Where’s the one room? He Yan murmured in his heart, Xiao Er Gongzi should live with the Bodhisattva in the temple, put an incense burner in front of him to offer fruit, and then he can be worshipped.

Xiao Jue ignored him.

The shopkeeper accepted the money and made people clean up the guest room and go. Since the three of them have not eaten lunch since morning until now, the first floor of the inn can be used for food, so they plan to eat here and go upstairs.

I can probably see that Xiao Jue’s identity is not rich or noble. The shopkeeper stands at their table eagerly, saying: “Our signature dishes here are mung bean chess noodles, five-flavored steamed gluten, spicy belly shreds, sesame rolls, eight treasures wild duck, and shredded chicken. Cucumbers, spiced pigeons…what do you want?”

Without waiting for Xiao Jue to speak, He Yan first asked loudly: “The shopkeeper, is there a mushroom chicken?”

“Yes, some.” The shopkeeper hurriedly replied.

Xiao Jue turned his head and looked at her calmly. He Yan blinked, “What’s wrong, uncle, you know, my favorite is the mushroom chicken!”

Feinu: “…”

You have to be thorough in your acting, which Cheng Lisu told her. Now that she has entered Liangzhou City, she is no longer He Yan, she is Cheng Lisu, the nephew of the second son of Xiao. My nephew wants to eat his favorite dish. Is this wrong?

There is nothing wrong at all!

Xiao Jue retracted his gaze and said, “Give him a plate of chicken with mushrooms.”

Is it so easy to talk? He Yan’s heart moved, so, what if you meet someone you know here? In front of outsiders, Xiao Jue is always hard to deny. Now He Yan is so courageous. She has eaten dry cakes for so many days in the sanctuary. She hasn’t even tasted the meat a few times. Since she seized the opportunity, Xiao Jue has no shortage of silver and will not slaughter one fiercely. Pen this fat sheep, isn’t it sorry for yourself?

“Uncle!” He Yan shouted crisply and sweetly, and said with a smile: “I still want to eat spicy belly shreds, sesame rolls, eight-treasure duck, shredded chicken and cucumber, steamed gluten with five flavors, five pigeons… what else? , Mung Bean Chess Noodle! I want to eat it!”

Feinu moved his lips, and then held back what he wanted to say. It’s been a long time since he had seen such a person who was not afraid of death.

The shopkeeper was surprised at first, then he smiled and looked at He Yan’s appearance as if he saw a God of Wealth, and said to Xiao Jue: “This little boy really has a vision, I really believe in our inn’s dishes!”

“Sorry,” Xiao Jue chuckled lightly, with an elegant gesture, but with a mean tone of sarcasm. He said indifferently: “My nephew has never seen the world, so it makes people laugh.”

He Yan: “…”

“Come a copy of everything.”

The second master Xiao spent money like dirt, and the shopkeeper was overjoyed and turned around and ordered the kitchen to cook.

He Yan wanted to make fun of him, thinking that it would be good to eat a few of them, but he never thought that Xiao Jue would be so obedient, and he really ordered one portion of each. Is it possible that Cheng Lisu is so favored in front of this uncle? He Yan was a little jealous when the wind was going crazy.

She approached Xiao Jue and asked cautiously: “Captain, why are you so good at talking?”

“What?” Xiao Jue said calmly: “As an uncle, of course you can’t make your nephew hungry.”

This “uncle” is very meaningful. He Yan pondered, but he figured out something wrong. She and Xiao Jue are also the same generation anyway. They were classmates before, but later they were both generals and equally famous. As a result, in this life, she first became Xiao Jue’s soldier and called him a superintendent. Now he has simply become Xiao Jue’s nephew, and he is even shorter in his seniority.

This is cheap, but Xiao Jue has a big deal!

She remained silent and didn’t plan to call Xiao Jue anymore. Who knew that trying to tease Xiao Jue would make him suffer? It’s really a miss.

Regardless of what the shopkeeper’s dishes are, they cook very quickly. After a while, the dishes will be ready and the whole table will be filled. So extravagant, everyone next to them looked at them.

He Yan felt a little embarrassed, and said, “The Governor, it cost you money.”

“Since you want to eat it, of course you have to eat it.” Xiao Jue said slowly: “It’s just that I taught you before. You will be prosperous if you are simple, and you will die if you want to lose it. Don’t waste it.”

He Yan noticed something wrong, and was about to speak, only to hear the person in front of him say again: “There is one grain of rice left, you don’t want to eat tomorrow.”

He Yan: “…”
