Rebirth of a Star General

He Yan did not expect that there would be such a period between Yang Mingzhi and Xiao Jue. After hearing what Lin Shuanghe said, he also thought about it for a while.

It is true that the last sentence Yang Mingzhi said was too hurtful. But for no reason, how could this happen? If you don't help, you won't help, why should you stab people in the mouth like this? Moreover, Yang Mingzhi's original temperament was not so bitter. He Yan thought so, Xiao Jue, a former friend of Yang Mingzhi, shouldn't have thought of this.

He Yan asked, "What about after that? Did the governor no longer communicate with Lord Yang? Is there any misunderstanding in this?"

Lin Shuanghe shook his head: "After Huaijin brought his troops to Guocheng, he rarely returned to Beijing. But Yang Mingzhi, not long after Huaijin left, did not study at Xianchang Hall anymore. Originally, with his talent, I thought it was not difficult to take the exam to stay in Shuojing, because of his relationship with his father and his own abilities. But since then, he seems to have disappeared. Brothers and sisters, it is indeed him who is concerned about Huaijin. I didn't do it right, and I stopped dealing with him later, so I don't know when the governor of Jinling City became him."

It seems that these brothers have really parted ways at the moment, He Yan thought to himself.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, accompanied by Yan He's impatient urging: "Lin Shuanghe, open the door!"

Lin Shuanghe got up, walked to the door and opened it. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Yan He standing at the door. Lin Shuanghe smiled and said, "General Yan, why are you coming to see me so late?"

Yan He was about to speak when he saw He Yan in the room and asked suspiciously, "Why is he in your room?"

"I'll see if there are any ants here." He Yan said, "If there are, I can drive them away for Brother Lin."

"Yes, yes," Lin Shuanghe said sternly: "She was invited by me to drive the ants, so don't arbitrarily doubt my relationship with him."

"What a mess," Yan He frowned, "Hurry up and change your clothes and come with us."

"Where to?" Lin Shuanghe was puzzled.

Yan He coughed lightly: "I'll find someone to tell Yang Mingzhi that he's going to take a cruise on the Qinhuai River tonight. He is the governor of a place. Naturally, he should prepare a treat for us. Hurry up and change your clothes and talk to Xiao Huaijin."

No one expected Yan He's behavior. Lin Shuanghe was stunned. He asked, "...Why do we want to cruise?"

"Yang Mingzhi and Xiao Huaijin, who are you trying to deceive," Yan He said triumphantly: "I can tell at a glance. This young master has a good heart today and is willing to build a bridge for them. Xiao Huaijin will not come to Jinling every day. More When we get along with each other, the misunderstanding will be solved naturally." He played with the ends of his ponytail, "In these years, I have been running outside, and I have learned a lot about the world, such as Xiao Huaijin's unpleasant temperament, let him and Yang Mingzhi It's impossible to solve the misunderstanding. Yang Mingzhi, it's not very annoying, I'm not for Xiao Huaijin, just for Yang Mingzhi."

Seeing that Lin Shuanghe didn't say a word, Yan He raised his chin, "Well, do you think I'm being generous, so why don't you thank me for your best friend?"

He Yan: "..."

Lin Shuanghe: "...I really thank you."

Yan He is really talented, and He Yan sighed in his heart that he could always step on Xiao Jue's forbidden area accurately. No wonder the two of them didn't match up when they were in Hyun Chang Hall.

"No need to thank you," Yan He said indifferently, "I'll go and tell Chu Zilan."

"...Wait," Lin Shuanghe asked, "Yang Mingzhi is fine, why did you call Chu Zilan?"

"I live here and leave him alone. It looks like I'm stingy. Besides, people in the official circles must be more tactful. Can everything be like a cockfight against others to make me look good?" Yan He sneered. , "Oh, I forgot, you don't have an official position, so naturally you don't know this."

He patted Lin Shuanghe on the shoulder and really walked towards Chu Zhao's yard.

Lin Shuanghe and He Yan looked at each other and remained silent. As expected of Yan He, there were only two who pulled the enemy. Yang Mingzhi doesn't count, and if you add another Chu Zhao, Xiao Jue is afraid that he will be pissed to death. Probably won't follow at all.

"Sister He," Lin Shuanghe said, "or...you should tell Huaijin."

He Yan: "Together."

This is going to be fatal, how can she bear it alone?

The two procrastinated, struggled for a moment, and finally reached Xiao Jue's room together, explaining what Yan He had just said, I thought Xiao Jue would definitely not go with him, but he turned around and said, "Okay."

This time, He Yan and Lin Shuanghe were both horrified.

You just agreed, and your expression is so calm? Lin Shuanghe whispered to He Yan, "Will he wait until he is on the boat to fight with Yang Mingzhi? This is too disrespectful."

He Yan: "It's very possible."

Xiao Jue raised her eyebrows slightly: "Aren't you going?"

"Go, go, of course." Lin Shuanghe leaned into He Yan's ear and whispered, "You must go. If there is a fight, remember to pull and persuade."

He Yan was speechless.

After saying that, they went back to the house to change their clothes. The group of them had been on the road before, and when they arrived in Jinling, it would be a bit out of place if they were dressed as they were on the road and went on a cruise ship. He Yan asked someone to fetch water, and after taking a bath, he changed into new clothes.

When leaving Rundu, the people in the city sent a lot of food and clothing. The material is not very expensive, but it fits well. He Yan looked at himself in the mirror. The young man was wearing blue clothes and cloth boots. His hair was tied into a simple bun. They are no different. She seems to have grown a little taller than when she first arrived in Liangzhou Wei, standing in the house, tall and straight like a poplar tree, young and full of vitality.

After He Yan finished packing, he pushed open the door and walked out. When he went out, he found that everyone had already packed up and was waiting for her outside. Yan He said impatiently: "You are a little Wu Anlang, why is it so troublesome, so many people are waiting for you, are you smearing powder inside?"

He Yan thought to himself, what a coincidence, she did apply grease and powder inside. Girls pretending to be men also need to be carefully decorated.

Xiao Jue glanced at her, and said, "Let's go."

The house Yang Mingzhi arranged for them was not far from the Qinhuai River. Therefore, everyone did not take the carriage, but walked to the Qinhuai River on their own. Their group is either a handsome boy or a handsome man, and they are particularly eye-catching when they walk on the street. From time to time, there are daring girls who pretend to be crooked and lean forward. However, Xiao Jue has never liked to be in contact with people, so she naturally avoided it precisely. And Yan He is not the temperament of Lianxiangxiyu, and there is room for not scolding and punishing. There was a beautiful maid by Chu Zhao's side, and those girls took the second place. In the end, it was Lin Shuanghe and He Yan who suffered.

He Yan didn't even remember how many beautiful girls he had helped, but the tender eyes of those girls looking at her really made her hard to resist. For a while, I felt that it was better to be as innocent and cute as Song Taotao.

Lin Shuanghe was the same, he didn't know how many times he called "sister".

Yan He looked at the two of them gloatingly, and said to Lin Shuanghe, "Lin Shuanghe, after so many years, I didn't expect you to be so attractive to women."

Lin Shuanghe tidied up his slightly wrinkled robe and smiled slightly, "It's natural, just like you always dislike women."

Yan He snorted, "I already have a wife, so I don't need to please others."

He Yan was stunned for a moment and looked at Yan He: "General Yan is already married?"

As soon as these words came out, both Xiao Jue and Chu Zhao looked at He Yan.

Lin Shuanghe spread out his fan, "I didn't expect it, our General Yan is young, but it's a pity that he got married at an early age."

"I think you are jealous." Yan He sneered.

He Yan is a bit peculiar. She and her classmates in Xianchangguan have had little contact since joining the army. She doesn't know when Yan He became a relative. Although it is understandable that Yan He is married at this age, with his arrogance and cockfighting temperament, it is really hard to imagine what he looks like as a husband. It was at this time that He Yan really had a feeling that the teenagers back then had really grown up.

When everyone was talking, they were already on the banks of the Qinhuai River. A few servant-like people were waiting by the river. When they saw He Yan and his party, they stepped forward and said, "Captain Xiao, General Yan, and the governor have prepared the cruise ship. The boat is waiting."

In fact, in terms of the Yang family's family background, Yang Mingzhi doesn't have to be like this, this attitude is already very low. However, in this group of people, his former best friend had been separated from him, and the only one left was Yan He, who did bad things with good intentions, but was not very good at speaking. Chu Zhao and Yang Mingzhi didn't know each other very well, and He Yan even changed the shell. Therefore, when the group got on the boat, they already sensed Yang Mingzhi's embarrassment.

Yang Mingzhi had already taken off the governor's official robe and put on a sandalwood gown. Although he is an official, he doesn't have the worldly air of an official. Standing here, he is more introverted, with a bit of the arrogance of a young man. He Yan seemed to have returned to the Xianchang Pavilion in a trance, and Yang Mingzhi was still Yang Mingzhi back then.

Yan He patted Yang Mingzhi on the shoulder, walked to the bow of the boat to look at it, and said, "You will enjoy it, and you chose a good place like Jinling. However, we fought in Rundu a few days ago, and it is not far from your Jinling. The hell on earth has already eaten people."

Yang Mingzhi was stunned: "Really?" Immediately, there was some anger in his eyes, and he moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

The Utuo people did evil in Jiyang and Runduhuayuan, but Jinling City was not affected at all. Still singing and dancing, on the Qinhuai River, many painting boats went down the river, and the sound of silk and bamboo strings came from them, floating on the water. There are bright lights and flowers on the shore.

He Yan sat in the boat and looked out the window. The water was almost brightly illuminated by the lanterns and fishing fires on the boat, as if it were truly peaceful and prosperous.

It is different from Jiyang here. The boats in Jiyang are small and the water market is lively, just like the women in Jiyang. Jinling, on the other hand, is like an old dream of a tower, with Shengzhou and lanterns, beautiful scenery and strong spring.

I don't know which boat, the sound of the pipa, the sound of the lute, like pearls falling on a jade plate, makes people's thoughts fly. Lin Shuanghe stood at the bow of the boat and said with a smile, "Jinling City is still exactly the same as it was many years ago. This boat, the water, and the sound of the pipa are not different at all."

Hearing this, Ying Xiang asked curiously, "Young Master Lin has ever been to Jinling?"

"That's natural," Lin Shuanghe spread out his fan, graceful like jade, "Speaking of which, I wasn't the only one on the boat who came to Jinling last time. Brother Yan, Huai Jin... Mr. Yang, isn't it?"

He looked at He Yan, who was looking at the water scene, and said, "Brother He, it should be your first time to Jinling, right? How is it?"

He Yan nodded: "It's beautiful."

She thought to herself that it was not the first time that she had been to Jinling. Just as Lin Shuanghe said, the last time she was in Jinling, she had to be one more person on the boat.

It was a summer day in Hyun Chang Hall, just like the current season. There is a poetry club in Jinling City, where famous scholars of the Wei Dynasty are invited all over the place. This was the first time in ten years, and the opportunity was hard to come by. The gentlemen of Xianchang Hall wanted to let the teenagers see the world, so they picked the ten best teenagers in the literature and classics category in the school and got a post from the poetry club.

Of course He Yan did not receive the post. Although her literary scriptures are better than Wu Ke, she still does not reach the top ten. However, He Yan was not very interested in leaving Beijing for Jinling. Wearing a mask is always very inconvenient, not to mention getting along with those teenagers day and night along the way, and it's hard to find the time to avoid it, so it's good not to go. Thinking of this, there is not much regret.

On that day, He Yan read for a while after school as usual. The sun was about to set, so I guessed that there was still some food left in the kitchen, so I got up and walked to the kitchen. In the Xianchang Hall, there is no way to deduct the students' food. Whenever they go to the kitchen, there are always some cakes and meals.

As soon as He Yan walked to the kitchen, she saw that the door of the firewood room was left open, and before she walked to the door, she heard the excited voice of a young man from inside: "Brother Lin, this proposal is good, we have to go to Jinling anyway, why not go. Entering the Cloud Tower with long knowledge? I have heard of the name of that Fairy You Hua long ago, if I can meet you, I will live up to my life.”

"Is that so?" Lin Shuanghe's voice continued, "It is said that the beauty and wine in the Yunyun Tower are the best of Wei. How can the poetry club be more interesting than the Yunyun Tower? I think we will stay in Jinling for a while. God, Mr. won't follow anyway. Take care of your own guards and servants, let's have a good time, others don't know!"

He Yan was stunned when he heard it. She knew about entering the cloud building. I heard that among all the flower buildings in Dawei, there are the most beautiful women in the cloud building. Like a hundred flowers blooming, among them, the Fairy of Flowers is even more extraordinary and unforgettable.

This group of people actually went to Hualou secretly in the name of the poetry club. If this is discovered by the gentleman, each of them will have their legs broken. He Yan sighed at their leopard courage, and didn't want to get involved in this matter, so he was about to leave. Suddenly, a voice came from inside: "Who?"

The next moment, the door of the firewood room was opened. A group of teenagers sat around and looked, Yan He held He Yan's collar and said angrily, "Are you eavesdropping?"

"It's not that I wanted to eavesdrop." He Yan defended, "I passed by." It was they who spoke so loudly, yet they didn't close the door, so arrogant, how could they still blame her?

Yan He threw her into the firewood room, closed the door, and the teenagers looked at her with burning eyes, and spoke at length.

"I was actually heard by this kid He Rufei, bad luck! Otherwise, don't go there. What if this guy informs you?"

"No, it's so easy to go to Jinling, how can I go to waste because of this kid, it's a big loss!"

"How about that? Kill the mouth?" A teenager asked negatively: "Buried on the spot?"

He Yan was startled, and said weakly: "...don't be so rude, I actually didn't hear anything. Brother Lin, Lin?" She asked Lin Shuanghe for help. Can't see death without help.

Lin Shuanghe stared at her and thought for a moment, then closed his fan, "Oh, what a big deal, I believe that even if Brother He hears it, he will not tell the truth."

"Your belief is useful?" Yan He's face was dark, "Are you responsible for the accident?"

"I'm not responsible for this, but we'll have to go with him." Lin Shuanghe spread his hands, "In this way, he won't cheat himself."

He Yan: "..."

Lin Shuanghe can always come up with extraordinary solutions to these matters.

He Yan struggled: "Sir won't agree, I don't have any posts..."

"You don't have to worry about that," Lin Shuanghe smiled slightly, "Wrap it on this young master."

In this way, He Yan was forced to follow the boys to Jinling.

Lin Shuanghe got the post from somewhere, and the husband agreed. Although Mrs. He was a little uneasy, He Yuansheng agreed. He is very supportive of anything that can add brilliance to "He Rufei". Therefore, without much effort, He Yan traveled alone with the teenagers to Jinling for the first time.

It is by water.

He Yan was on a big boat for the first time, and he vomited so badly that he almost didn't vomit out his heart and liver together. The rest of the teenagers didn't like to carry his oil bottle, so they laughed at him for being petite and frail. Lin Shuanghe, the only one who had a better relationship with He Yan, had already become good brothers and sisters with the boat's daughter. Asking the boat's daughter to tell a story, the little girl couldn't stop laughing, how could he care about "Brother He" who was forced to go this far because of his words.

He Yan couldn't say anything in his heart, so he raised his head and lay on the side of the boat, listening to the cheerful laughter of the teens in the boat, looking at the cold and clear moon in the sky, blowing the cold wind, and his heart was extraordinarily anxious.

While thinking about whether this boat can fish, she suddenly saw someone tap her on the shoulder from behind. He Yan turned back subconsciously. The next moment, something cold was stuffed into her mouth. She was startled and wanted to shout unconsciously. , so the thing slid down the throat and into the belly.

"Cough cough cough—" She coughed violently, looking at the person in front of her.

The white-robed boy put his hands on the side of the boat and looked at her casually. Under the moonlight, his pupils clearly reflected himself.

He Yan hurriedly touched his throat and asked, "You... what did you give me to eat?"

Xiao Jue said lazily, "Poison."

"What—" He Yan was shocked.

"Shh," he held his chin in one hand and looked at the flowing water in the distance, "don't scream, if it's too loud, you'll die very quickly."

"I," He Yan's tears were about to fall, "I have no grievances or enmity with you, why do you want to harm me?"

The boy pulled the corners of his mouth, and his usually lazy face actually took on a bit of evil, "Isn't that afraid of you being a whistleblower?"

"I won't inform!" He Yan was anxious: "Give me the antidote!"

"There is no antidote," Xiao Jue replied calmly, "There is no cure."

He didn't look like he was lying, He Yan stayed for a moment, only to feel that his legs were weak, he couldn't support him, and he sat on the ground with his buttocks.

How does it look like this?

So these teenagers tricked her out, just to make it easier to kill people? It seems that this place is really suitable for killing people and killing people. When people die and are thrown into the river, there is no trace. It's just eaten by fish after death, I don't know if it will be cold.

At that time, she was not very courageous and had a lot of ideas. She thought about it for a long time, and finally raised her head and asked the boy standing on the bow, "How many days can I live?"

As if she didn't expect her to ask this, Xiao Jue froze for a moment and hummed, "Five days."

"Five days..." He Yan murmured, "It's only three days before I can get to Jinling. Well, there are two more days, and I can still visit Fairy Youhua."

Since she's about to die, it's not a loss to see the beauty before she dies. she thought so.

Xiao Jue sneered and didn't answer.

He Yan held the mast of the boat and sat for a while. After an unknown amount of time, she stood up, walked in staggeringly, took two steps, and suddenly realized something.

She didn't vomit.

After realizing it, He Yan trotted to Xiao Jue, raised his head and asked him excitedly, "Brother Huai, Huaijin, I'm not seasick anymore, did you just give me seasickness medicine?"

Although the mask covered her face, it couldn't hide the raised corners of her mouth and her happy tone. Xiao Jue looked at her indifferently, her lips bent, her tone was clearly gentle, but it was a mean word: "Fool."

He turned and walked in.

He Yan looked at his back, and felt that this person was really boring, seasickness medicine was seasickness medicine, but he had to play tricks to scare her.

...though she was really frightened.

He Yan couldn't help laughing when he recalled the interesting things from his childhood. In the boat not far away from the meeting, in the boat where the sound of the pipa was heard, a woman's singing sounded.

"... Cangshan is far away, Wushan is far away, the boat is far away, the dream is unstoppable, and the song of floating life is difficult to think... It's hard to think, and it's hard to hate, but now you are separated from me, old and young in the spring breeze..."

The woman's voice was soft and clear, even more moving than the jade-like sound of the pipa. Lin Shuanghe pointed at the boat with a fan and said, "That's it! The same is true of Fairy Youhua's piano sound back then. The reverberation lingered around the beam for three days. I..."

He was suddenly stunned, as if thinking of something, he stepped forward quickly and said something to the servants on the boat. The person left quickly, and after a while, the boat in front stopped, the curtain was lifted, and a woman with a lute in her arms walked out.

This woman was wearing a light and thin begonia red skirt, her eyes were half-curved, her lips were like cherry blossoms, her arms were soft and graceful, and she was charming and slender. Standing on the bow of the boat, the mood alone is already exciting. The lights on the boat made it difficult to see her face. But even if you can't see it clearly, you know that it is bound to be unparalleled.

She held the pipa in her arms and did not open her mouth. She just bowed to everyone Yingying. It was like an old dream by the Qinhuai River, which illuminated the ignorant eyes of the teenagers.

"...Youxian girl?" Lin Shuanghe said in surprise.
