Rebirth of a Star General

He Yan slept very late this night in the Xiao family.

This is not Liangzhou Wei, and there is a middle door between the rooms. Probably knowing that Xiao Jue was next door, He Yan was even more nervous. I don't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that Xiao Jue treated her a lot more tenderly now. For Xiao Jue, it may be a trivial matter, but for her, it can always easily stir up the most secret emotions in her heart.

He Yan turned over, but now she has a special identity. When she returned to Shuojing, everything about Xu Zhiheng and He Rufei was in front of her eyes, and it was a drag for anyone to be with. Xiao Jue already bears the deep hatred of the Xiao family. If he implicates him again... He Yan took a deep breath and looked at the tent above his head, it's really not a good idea.

Her mind was filled with all kinds of complicated thoughts, and she didn't fall asleep until midnight. When I woke up the next day, it was actually three poles in the sun.

She froze, turned over and sat up. I put on my clothes and opened the door, facing the steps in the yard, sitting a little girl of eight or nine years old, chubby, holding her face and looking at the ants in the corner seriously, when she heard the movement, she raised her head, revealing a look. Zhang Yuanyuan's face looked like a New Year's picture doll, and his smiling eyes narrowed into slits: "Young Master He is awake!"

She patted the dust on her clothes, stood up, and trotted towards He Yan. The child was too young, with short legs, and He Yan was afraid that she would fall.

He Yan asked, "Are you..."

"The servant's name is Bai Guo," the little girl replied obediently, "Second Young Master asked the servant to take care of you, but if you don't call him, you can't enter the room of the servant. The servant is awake, and the servant will go to the kitchen to serve breakfast."

Her voice was also soft and waxy, and He Yan couldn't help but touched her head and asked, "Where's your second young master?"

"Second Young Master went out early in the morning," Bai Guo replied with a smile, "Second Young Master said before he left, Young Master doesn't need to be restrained. If you don't want to stay in the mansion, you can leave the mansion to do business on your own, and come back early in the evening." She After thinking of something, he added: "There are also silver notes in the wooden drawer on the table in the son's room. The second young master said that the son can use it. If you need anything else, just tell the slaves directly, and the slaves will tell the eldest grandma. ."

The little girl was still full of uncontrollable milk, but she spoke in a straightforward manner. He Yan laughed, "You are so young, how could the second young master of your family let you serve me?"

"The slave's father is in charge of the mansion," Bai Guo proudly puffed out his chest, "Second Young Master asks the slave to come over, the slave will definitely be able to take care of the good son."

"Thank you a lot then." He Yan smiled.

Bai Guo was very excited. It seemed that it was the first time that he had received such a major errand. He replied, "Young Master is a friend of the Second Young Master, so you don't need to thank the servants. The servants will go to the kitchen. Wait a minute, the hot water is on the silver. It's in the kettle, right at the gate of the yard. The young master wants to wash his face, so he can pour it directly. The second young master said that the young master does not like to be touched by people, so there is no need for servants to do these trivial matters." She stuck out her tongue and ran away with a puff of smoke.

He Yan looked at her back and thought, Xiao Jue thought very thoughtfully. Looking for such a little girl to come here is simple and innocent. Even if she sees something wrong with her, she will not think about other aspects. If someone else came here, what if she accidentally discovered her identity?

She lowered her head and laughed, and went to the place Ginkgo said to fetch water and go back to the house to wash up.

Just after finishing grooming, Ginkgo came in with a food basket. She stepped over the threshold and put the food basket on the table, "After you finish eating, just put the food basket here, the servant will clean it up. If there is anything you need the servant to come in again." Before He Yan could speak, she asked Immediately backed out.

He Yan: "..."

I really don't know how Xiao Jue told her.

The meals are all porridge and side dishes, just like last night, not extravagant, but delicate and careful everywhere. After He Yan finished eating, he put the empty dishes in the food basket. After tidying up his clothes, when he walked to the table, he remembered what Ginkgo had just said, he opened the wooden drawer, and sure enough, there was a thick stack of silver bills inside.

I thought that the silver note that Bai Guo said was at most one or two, but I never thought that Xiao Jue was so generous. He Yan thought angrily, the wicked son of aristocrat, no wonder Xiao Jue went to buy clothes when he was in Jiyang, and he settled down without blinking.

If you have money, you can do whatever you want.

He Yan didn't move the silver note in it, closed the wooden drawer again, and walked out of the room.

She has a good memory and knows how to get from this yard to the gate of Xiao's residence, and she didn't meet Bai Rongwei and Xiao Jing along the way. The rest of the servants did not know if they were greeted by Xiao Jue in advance, and no one paid attention to her, but just focused on doing their own thing. As if He Yan appeared in the Xiao family, it was a very natural thing, as if she had lived in the Xiao family for a long time and was a member of the Xiao family.

He Yan walked out of the gate of Xiao's residence without much effort.

As soon as he went out, the sun was shining brightly, He Yan narrowed his eyes, raised his feet and walked in one direction.

Before she left Beijing to join the army, she had already won a lot of money in Letongzhuang and let He Yunsheng go to the school. It's been a year and a half now, and I don't know if He Yunsheng is still studying in that school. It's not good for her to go directly to He's house. After all, the neighbors all grew up watching Miss He. Even if she dressed as a man, she might not be recognized. The classmates in He Yunsheng's school had never seen He Yan before, so it was safer to think about it.

The time was right now, and He Yan arrived at the entrance of "Helu Academy" without much effort. Helu Academy is not as good as Xianchang Academy, but in the homes of ordinary people, it can be regarded as a good academy. In today's Wei Dynasty, where literature is more important than martial arts, Yuelu Academy not only taught literature and classics, but also taught martial arts by teachers, which was what He Yan valued the most. He Yun was born in the matter of reading, and his enlightenment was a little late, and he himself was not interested in this, but his boxing skills were not bad. If you follow the warrior path in the future, it is not impossible.

It was in the early morning, the best time to read, when there were bursts of reading sounds from Yuelu Academy. He Yan is not from the academy, so it is not easy to enter directly. Then I ordered a cup of tea in the teahouse outside, and sat for about half an hour. When it was time for school, I turned over the wall and entered the academy while the gentlemen were leaving.

From time to time, students from school came out of the academy door. He Yan was about to find a young man to ask where He Yunsheng was, and unknowingly, he had already walked to the window of the academy. There were bursts of laughter from the teenagers, with some malicious ridicule, "Brother Yunsheng, are you really not going with me today? Today is Brother Wang's birthday!"

Another person said: "How can Brother Yunsheng look down on us? Look at us playing together, when did you see Brother Yunsheng come together? Brother Yunsheng is so good at martial arts and has a handsome face. If you like this girl, you may be able to do it in the future. Get into a good relationship and become prosperous, why are you hanging out with us!"

There was another roar, and He Yan frowned slightly. This kind of ridicule was too hurtful. He Yunsheng was arrogant and impatient, how could he bear this? Shouldn't it fight.

Worried in her heart, she secretly looked in and saw a young man in green standing in front of the table surrounded by all the teenagers.

He actually endured such humiliation.

It probably felt like a punch on cotton, and there was no sound at all. The teenagers made a fuss for a while, but also felt bored and left the school in twos and threes. At the same time, He Yunsheng packed his books and got up and went out.

He Yan followed He Yunsheng from a distance.

He Yunsheng entered a deserted alley, and only walked a few steps. Suddenly, he felt a strong wind coming from behind. He turned around subconsciously, and went back with a palm. The soft, yet tough palms fit together, silently blocking his palm wind, easily causing him to back up a few steps.

"Who!" he shouted warily.

The next moment, a familiar laughing voice sounded, "Good boy, it seems that the school has not been practiced in vain for more than a year, and the strength is much stronger."

He Yunsheng was stunned when he heard this voice, he couldn't believe his ears. The palm in front of him was removed, revealing a human face. There was a face that was somewhat similar to him between the eyebrows and eyes, and it emerged from his mind every few minutes, a beautiful, familiar but unfamiliar face.

His sister... He Yan.

"You..." He Yunsheng's voice trembled.

He Yan slapped him on the head and rubbed it, "What are you, you are called sister!"

"Why are you back!" He Yunsheng seemed to have finally regained his senses and rubbed his eyes. It was at this time that the young man had a shadow that He Yan had seen in the past. He took a step forward and grabbed hold of it. He Yan's elbows seemed to confirm whether he was dreaming or reality, "Are you really back? He Yan! When did you come back? Do you know that my father and I have been worried to death this year!" He Yan His eyes were red, and his voice was choked up.

He Yan looked at the young man in front of him and couldn't help sighing in his heart. The young man is running fast. After a year and a half, He Yunsheng has grown a lot taller than before. Now that he looks at him, he has to look up. He was also much thinner than before, looking tall and thin, as if he was already an adult.

He Yan grabbed him and walked out, "This is not the place to talk, come with me."

...

In the tea room, delicate pastries were placed in front of him, but He Yunsheng had no idea of ​​eating them at all. The person in front of Piansheng also pushed the plate hard in front of him, "Don't you like to eat this? Eat more."

He Yunsheng stalked his neck and said, "I don't like sweets."

He Yan rolled his eyes in his heart, and didn't know who was drooling at the cakes He Sui gave her when he went up the mountain to chop wood with her. She looked at the teenager in front of her. The child grew up and knew how to maintain her self-esteem.

It was strange to say that she saw that Cheng Lisu and Song Taotao were both children younger than her, but only for He Yunsheng, there was always a lot of unintelligible and real concerns, and this concern was in Liangzhou. At the time, he was well hidden and restrained. When he saw He Yunsheng himself, he couldn't restrain himself. He just wanted to give the best to this child, and hoped that he would be well in the future. Maybe it's because this body is Miss He, and the wonder of blood kinship is here.

"You haven't told me yet, why are you back?" He Yunsheng stared at He Yan and hesitated for a while, "Besides, why are you like this now?"

He Yan looked at him with a smile, "This look... Isn't this look bad?"

He Yunsheng didn't say it was bad, he didn't say it was good, he just felt weird. He was used to seeing He Yan in a skirt, and once in men's clothes, but even then, it was not as natural as now. If He Yan was not his sister, if he saw such a person on the street, He Yunsheng would never believe that this person was a woman.

He Yansheng was very beautiful, even when He Yunsheng had the worst relationship with her in the past, He Yunsheng could not admit this fact. It's just that Mei always seemed a little frivolous and cheap, especially when she did everything possible to scavenge He Sui's money to buy clothes and accessories for herself. Today's He Yan is a little darker than at that time, and she is almost irresponsible. It is not so much that she is beautiful, but now she is more heroic. The bright and flying light made her eyes as bright as stars.

Actually... it's also beautiful, even more attractive than before.

However, that's not the point at all. He Yunsheng came back to his senses and said, "Are you still in the barracks? No, if you're still in the barracks, how could you run out?"

"I am your elder sister. I am very talented and highly appreciated by my boss." He Yan took a sip of tea. "When I joined the army, I was lucky enough to be awarded a minor official, and now I am more than inferior."

"How can you be banned?" He Yunsheng was taken aback, "Don't you know that you are a woman? Even if you can hide it for a while, you can't hide it for the rest of your life! If someone discovers your identity in the future, you will be finished! No, no," He Yun Sheng was anxious, "You hurry up and resign, and resign tomorrow!"

He Yan tilted his head and looked at him, "Don't you ask, what kind of official am I being named?"

"No matter what official you are, you can't stay!" He Yunsheng said impatiently: "Not even if you are the prime minister. Besides, the bigger your official is, the more dangerous you will be. Even for that bit of glory and wealth, you can't risk your life. You must resign!"

He Yan was stunned for a moment, feeling a little dazed for a while.

He Yun can understand the truth of having a child. How could the two masters of the He family, who are officials in the court, not understand it? Li Daitao stiff, this is clearly a very dangerous thing, once found out, she will die, but the He family still let her do it, and it has been so many years.

It turned out to be just... greedy human nature, reluctance to bear that bit of glory and wealth, or, in their eyes, He Yan's life is just a weight, and it is worthless in terms of the possible future glory.

"Hey, are you listening to me!" He Yunsheng beckoned in front of her.

He Yan raised his head and smiled, "Of course I know what you said. The official must resign, but now is not the time. I still have some things to do. I will resign when I am done."

He Yunsheng was about to ask her what was going on, but He Yan spoke up again, and she asked, "Stop talking about me, how about you, these days when I'm not in Shuojing, how is your father? Has anyone from the Fan family come to find fault? ?"

He Yunsheng sank his brows and said, "How could those bastards not find fault."

It turned out that after He Yan joined the army, the murderer of Fan Cheng's death was never found, and the Fan family vented their anger on the He family. Although He Yan was also a "victim", because He Yan was dead and no body was found, he didn't even have any proof. Fan Cheng's family often finds trouble with He Sui on the field of the school captain, slandering He Sui for doing things improperly, and causing He Sui to lose his job as a school captain.

Fortunately, not long after that, a merchant in Shuojing wanted to hire a guard in the mansion. He learned that He Sui used to be a school captain and was good at it, so he invited He Sui to work in the mansion. Although it doesn't sound as decent as being a captain, the merchants are generous, and the money is very generous.

He Yan was a little skeptical, "You have plenty of money, but aren't all the old clothes you wear? The meaning of your classmates' words is clearly that you don't want to spend money with them."

He Yunsheng looked at her in disbelief, "You actually eavesdropped..."

"Shh," He Yan smiled, "I was just passing by, and I just heard it. You don't need to keep the money, shouldn't you save it as a betrothal gift?"

He Yunsheng didn't speak. He couldn't tell He Yan that although the family was a lot better off, he had discussed with He Sui that He Yan would not know when he would return from the army. A girl's home is outside, and she has suffered a lot, but it is good to be alive. If he gets older when he comes back, or is rejected by others, he will not marry and save more money. He Yan wants to live alone in Shuojing in the future.

Seeing that He Yunsheng didn't speak, He Yan thought he had guessed it right, and smiled, "Don't be so frugal? I'm a salaried person now." She took out two silver notes from her bosom and whispered: "You won the battle before, this is the trophy, your Majesty's award, you take the money, go back and make two new clothes for your father and yourself. Be better to yourself, people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, you dress better, Only the girl you like will take a fancy to you, right? Little girls like handsome, although you have a handsome face, but your temperament is not pleasing, so you have to dress it up with clothes."

He Yunsheng held the two silver notes, and after a while, he asked, "Won the battle? Did you go to the battlefield? Which one? Jiyang water battle or Liangzhou Weisuo battle, or Rundu Yi war?"

He Yan didn't expect that he was still paying attention to these things, so he scratched his head and said, "Actually... I've been in all these games."

He Yunsheng took a deep breath.

He Yan was in a hurry when he left, leaving only a letter. He Yunsheng later asked someone to inquire that the group of soldiers recruited in Shuojingli at that time all went to Liangzhou Wei. After that, he kept paying attention to the news of Liangzhou Wei. He heard that the journey was a long way, and many frail people died on the way. He prayed every day and hoped that his mother in heaven would bless He Yan safe and sound. I also heard that Liangzhou Wei was suffering from cold and hard training, and only hoped that He Yan could become a soldier. When Rida Muzi took the soldiers to Liangzhou guardhouse, he and He Sui didn't fall asleep all night. Later, they comforted each other. He Yan was definitely fine. She couldn't even carry a knife, and she was so clever that she couldn't even see her. enemy.

Jiyang water battle... Rundu defending the city... In short, He Sui and He Yunsheng have had a particularly difficult time since they fought against He Yan and joined the army. If they weren't afraid that the Fan family would follow along and catch He Yan's whereabouts, the two would just pack up and rush to Liangzhou in person.

"Didn't I have someone bring you a message?" He Yan asked.

He Yunsheng frowned for a while, and said, "There were two times, but they were very short, and they were all written on a note and threw it into the room. Speaking of this, He Yun was angry and anxious, "What did you think at the time, how did you think of joining the army? You are a girl..."

"No one said that women can't join the army." He Yan was afraid of his chatter and cut off his words, "And don't you think I'm safe now? By the way, Dad is no longer a school captain, and the Fan family can Are you still harassing?"

He Yunsheng shook his head, "A few months ago, the Fan family stopped coming." He sarcastically said, "We all recognize them when they beat and scold us, and I probably know that it's boring to go on like this. I heard that the master of the Fan family got it again. One son, don't care about the previous one."

He Yan couldn't help but stunned, how old is Mr. Fan, and how old he is, he really doesn't know what to say.

"Come back with me." He Yunsheng looked at He Yan, "Dad will go home at night. Once you go back, Dad will be so happy to see you."

He Yan shook his head, "I can't go back now."

"why?"

"Yun Sheng," He Yan looked at him patiently, "My current identity is very delicate, all the neighbors have seen my face, if I were recognized... I would be in trouble. Even if I want to meet my father, Not at home. Besides, now is not a good time." She shoved the bank note into He Yunsheng's hand, "I came here today just to see you. Seeing that you guys are doing okay, I'm relieved. You can tell me when you look back. Dad, I'm fine, we'll find another place to meet in a few days."

He Yunsheng was a little aggrieved, but he finally saw it, but he had to hide, as if he was invisible. But he also knew in his heart that He Yan was right.

"Then what do you do?" He shoved the silver note back into He Yan's hand, "Don't you want to use the money yourself? Take it yourself. And where do you live now? An inn? The inn is very unsafe. I heard that there are many black shops..."

He Yan was too lazy to push around with him, so he shoved the banknotes directly into his arms, and said, "I still have a lot, a thick stack, use it when you want, don't worry about it, you little kid. No. I don't live in the inn now, and the trustee is looking for a house to rent it. Before that, I lived in a friend's house. "

"Friend?" He Yunsheng pricked up his ears, looked at her vigilantly, and couldn't wait to ask, "What friend are you? Did you meet in Liangzhou Wei? How old are you? Male or female?"

He Yan: "..."

Why does this look inexplicably like a father keeping his daughter overnight? She thought to herself, if Xiao Jue's name was said, He Yunsheng would probably follow her back to Xiao's residence tonight - after all, He Yan still remembers what He Yunsheng said.

"If I were a woman, I would only love him and him!"

The corners of He Yan's mouth twitched. He couldn't imagine the scene of He Yunsheng and Xiao Jue standing together. After a while, he said, "What the heck is a child doing, in short, he is a big man."
