Rebirth of a Star General

The second son of the Xiao family has a fiancée, and His Majesty bestowed the marriage in person. The fiancée was a female doll who disguised herself as a man. She once fought on the battlefield with Xiao Jue, and she achieved outstanding military exploits. Hou.

Overnight, the streets and alleys of Shuojing City, restaurants and teahouses, relished the same thing. Some people say that the second son of Xiao is really extraordinary, and his fiancée looks like a powerful person who is not allowed to be a man. Some people also said that he chose not to marry the good Miss Shen family, but chose an ordinary woman with no wealth background, who was still such an unruly person who made a public appearance. I really don't know what to think.

No matter what the outsiders say, the Xiao family is still shrouded in joy. Early in the morning of the second day, Bai Rongwei and Xiao Jing went to He's house, grabbing Xiao Jue, with a greeting that had been packed up overnight.

Undoubtedly, it naturally caused a wave of onlookers from the neighbors.

He Sui complained bitterly in her heart, but said that the Xiao family came too quickly, and they didn't have time to ask Qingmei to go out to buy tea, Qingmei was helpless, so she had to pour a few cups of hot water, and the family sat in the room cramped to watch to the person opposite.

He Yan had just punched in the backyard, Xiao's family was in a hurry, and she didn't have time to change her clothes, so when Xiao Jing and the others were seated, they saw a young girl wearing strong work clothes with her hair tied in a bun. , came over while wiping the sweat from his forehead.

He Yan thought that Xiao Jue came alone today, but when he looked at it again, Bai Rongwei and Xiao Jing were also there, he was at a loss and looked towards Xiao Jue. Without waiting for Xiao Jue to speak, Xiao Jing said: "Master He, Miss He, it's really rude to rush to the door today. Please don't take offense."

"It's okay, it's okay." He Sui smiled. He didn't sleep all night last night. He sat in the yard in the middle of the night and watched the sky for several hours. He Yan's marriage came so suddenly that it felt unreal. Even if His Majesty bestowed the marriage, he was not quite sure. People all over the world say that Xiao Jue is a good match, but such people have never been in the same world as them.

He spent too little time with Xiao Jue last night, and vaguely felt that General Feng Yun had no temperament as a young master, and was much better than Fan Cheng. But He Sui had also heard a little about Xiao Jue's home situation. Now Xiao Jue has no elders on his head, just brothers and sisters. Xiao Jing was a well-known modest gentleman in the capital, but Bai Rongwei didn't understand him. However, when my daughter married into someone else's house, she was always afraid that she would suffer. Besides, He Yan was spoiled by herself again. What if other people's family didn't spoil her like her own in the future?

He Sui didn't want He Yan to marry a wealthy family. It is better to marry an ordinary family and hold her in the palm of your hand, rather than being ignored by others.

He Sui felt bitter.

However, the attitude of the Xiao family's brothers and sisters is somewhat beyond He Sui's expectations.

Bai Rongwei and Xiao Jing were not greedy and vain people at first. They were grateful to Xiao Jue for finally having a sweetheart. For fear of scaring the girl away, they naturally did their best to be considerate. Regarding the marriage between the two families, Bai Rongwei also discussed everything with He Sui. Seeing that the Xiao family was so solemn, He Sui put down the stone in his heart.

Being valued is always a good thing.

He Yan sat on the side, there was no place to talk. Thanks to He Yunsheng for going to the school early in the morning, otherwise he would stay in the house, and I don't know how to make things difficult for the Xiao family.

He Sui is also observing Xiao Jue, the Xiao family's big house and his wife look very reliable, and He Sui does not doubt how good Xiao Jue is, but it is rumored that Xiao Jue is not close to women, and is indifferent and ruthless. What is He Yan's idea? He occasionally asked Xiao Jue about He Yan, such as what He Yan likes to eat, what he does, and how he behaved in Liangzhou Wei...

Xiao Jue answered them one by one.

He Yan: "..."

Here she is, like a complete outsider. When this cordial meeting finally ended, He Sui tried to keep them for dinner.

"Don't bother Master He," Bai Rong said with a smile, "We have to go back to the manor first and inform the relatives of the Xiao family about this. The imperial decree arrived in a hurry last night, and I didn't have time to inform you. Pleasure is."

"Then... I must come another day." He Sui said with a hearty smile.

He Yan: "..."

There is not enough rice in the rice jar at home to make a meal, and they only have Qingmei as a maid. They really want to keep the rice, I am afraid that the guests will wait until they are hungry before they can serve a side dish of clear porridge. He Yan looked at the beaming He Sui and was really speechless.

He Sui sent Bai Rongwei and the others out, and the neighbors who were watching the lively outside saw He Sui, and they all booed kindly: "Oh, congratulations, congratulations, Lao He, found a good family!"

"Lao He is really lucky to have a good daughter, why don't we have such a blessing?"

"In the future, when Lao He develops, don't forget us. When He Yan was born, I still hugged her!"

He Yan thought to himself, if Miss He was really here, listening to these jokes, she would have blushed with embarrassment. After all, she felt a little uncomfortable when she heard these words.

Xiao Jue and her walked behind, Bai Rongwei and the others seemed to have deliberately left a space for He Yan to speak. He Yan asked, "Captain, what are you doing tomorrow?"

Xiao Jue looked at her: "What?"

"I plan to go to the Yuhua Temple on the Lotus Snow Mountain tomorrow to worship Buddha." He Yan said with a smile: "Isn't this the Mid-Autumn Festival? I heard that the Buddha in the Yuhua Temple is very spiritual. Many people go to the mountain to pray for blessings at this time. Yun Sheng is going to school. Father wants to go to work, I will go alone, if you have nothing to do, you can come with me. There is no harm in worshipping Buddha."

She always thought that the meeting with Xiao Jue at night had changed her life after all. Although the final fate inevitably leads to a tragic ending, but before that ending, she taught her a lot of lessons. took some courage. This courage has continued to the present, and a fate with Xiao Jue has been achieved. Destiny is long and long, like the red silk hanging on an ancient tree. It is discarded and trampled by someone, but it will still be picked up by another person.

How fortunate.

"I'll be fine tomorrow." Xiao Jue hooked her lips, "I can go with you."

"Okay!" He Yan said, "I will wait for you at the entrance of Xiao's house at dawn tomorrow."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Xiao Jue laugh, and He Yan asked curiously, "What are you laughing at?"

"Miss He forgot that she is a woman again." Xiao Jue said slowly, his eyes seemed to tease.

He Yan understood and coughed lightly, "Between you and me, you don't have to stick to the worldly vision."

"Go to sleep," he chuckled, "I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."

He Yan nodded.

...

This He family in the capital was happy and laughing, while the other He family had a stagnant atmosphere, and the house was full of gloomy mountains and rain.

He Rufei smashed the cup in his hand against the wall with a "smack".

The porcelain cup hit the corner of the wall, and the peony flower on the cup was torn apart, and the little servant girl in the room didn't dare to let out the air, and stood with her head down.

Outsiders have rumored that General Feihong is hearty and generous, and he is informal. This is natural, but occasionally in the house, He Rufei will also show a sinister and violent side. In front of people, he is confident and majestic, the general who is as dazzling as the sun is in the mansion.

"You all go down." He Yuansheng stepped into the door, used his shoes to throw away the debris in front of him, and told everyone to go out.

The door was closed, and He Yuansheng sat down in front of He Rufei.

"Now there are rumors everywhere that your technique of defeating the enemy in the first battle of Huayuan retreated thousands of miles at night, which is completely different from before." He Yuansheng took a cup of tea and took a sip, "I Looking at these days, you should say that you will not be able to go to court for the time being."

"Why is this?" He Rufei sneered disapprovingly: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in military affairs, it's just a military affair, it's nothing."

"Really," He Yuansheng looked at him, "then why have you been restless since you returned to the mansion last night. Is it because of that woman named He Yan?"

He Rufei suddenly looked up at him.

"She's not He Yan." He Yuansheng said calmly, "I have already sent someone to inquire, but she is the daughter of a school captain of the city gate, and she had nothing to do with our family before, so I don't know what method she used to climb up to Xiao. Jue, he was also sealed as a marquis. I just turned around in the palace and scared you like this? Don't forget, you are General Feihong."

The speaker has no intention of hearing it, but it is no different from irony when it is heard in the ears of a caring person.

He Rufei's eyes sank for a while, and said: "Of course I know it's pretending to be a ghost, but at this point, someone just advertised that I'm different from the past, and this woman named He Yan appeared. So coincidentally, she's also a woman. Men's clothing, adding an official and a rank, doesn't my father think it's a coincidence?"

"What do you want to say?"

"There is no problem with the identity of the woman named He Yan, and she doesn't dare to count the He family based on her expectations. Besides, everyone who knew about the incident at the beginning has been silenced, except for the Xu family... Xu Zhiheng is as timid as a mouse and will not take the initiative to let go. , Father, the woman named He Yan is Xiao Huaijin's fiancee, and Xiao Huaijin was in the palace last night and defended this woman a lot."

"You mean that this was planned by Xiao Huaijin?" He Yuansheng frowned slightly, "The He family and the Xiao family have never had any grievances or hatred in the past, why did he do this?" If possible, he did not want to be an enemy of Xiao Huaijin. Even Xu Xiang, who had power over the court and the opposition, couldn't do anything about Xiao Huaijin, let alone that Governor Xiao, who could chop off the head of the official's son if he didn't agree, there was nothing else he could do.

"When He Yan was studying in the Xianchang Hall, he was the same student as Xiao Jue." He Rufei's eyes were deep, "Perhaps the secret of He Yan's identity has already been discovered. Now that we have taken refuge in Xu Xiang, Xiao Huaijin and Xu Xiang do not deal with each other, so naturally they have to clean up us. Family."

"We do things very secretly..."

"Father," before He Yuansheng could finish speaking, He Rufei interrupted him, "There is no impermeable wall in the world, there are eyeliners everywhere in the capital, the grievances between the Xiao family and the Xu family, since we have already been involved , it is impossible to be alone.”

He Yuansheng sighed slightly.

He does things carefully, but it is best to have all the benefits and let others take the risks. There are countless advantages to get on the boat with Xu Jingfu, but at the same time, they are also being targeted by Xiao Huaijin, which is really a bad thing.

"We are already Xu Xiang's people, and Xiao Huaijin will not let us go. Since that's the case," He Rufei's eyes filled with killing intent, "It's better to strike first."

He Yuansheng frowned, "If you want to deal with Xiao Huaijin, don't act rashly."

"Who said I was going to deal with Xiao Huaijin?"

"what do you mean……"

"Didn't they find a woman to pretend to be a ghost?" He Rufei spoke slowly, his eyes flashing, and there seemed to be endless malice, "Let's start with that woman first."

...

He Yan didn't expect that the appearance of the Xiao family made He Sui start to have the idea of ​​renovating the house, but he never thought about changing the house. Part of He Yan's previous money was given to He Yunsheng, part of it was used to manage the prosperity of the Xu family, and he kept a little for later use. In addition, although he is now a prince, he has no house or land granted by the royal family, and he has been fined for a year.

She wanted to go to the camp outside the city to see Wang Ba and the others. If Hong Shan and his party knew that she was a woman, they would have been shocked. But I feel that I have not thought of a suitable reason for going so hastily, so I should wait a few more days.

For now, let's go to Yuhua Temple on Lianxue Mountain to worship Buddha.

Early the next morning, He Yan got up and changed into a long dress with cyan engraved silk and dark flowers on her body. Thank goodness, although the He family was not rich, He Sui was still willing to buy a dress for Miss He. It's only in the past year that He Yan has grown a little taller. Although he is still slender, he is not as weak as before when the wind blows. He looks much healthier. Qingmei picked out a little of her long hair and tucked it up at the back of her head, while the rest was casually draped. He Yan looked at herself in the mirror and was not used to it, so she saw Qingmei smiled happily, "Girl still looks good like this, before. When I came back, the maid almost didn't recognize her."

He Yan thought to himself, now that he is like this, he really doesn't know each other.

He Yan asked Qingmei to take it to the pawnshop and sold all the jewelry before, but now I can't find a hairpin, and after searching in the drawer for a while, Qingmei found a wooden hairpin, which was probably cut by He Sui himself. , they were not worth any money, and they were not pawned together at that time.

"The girl looks good on this, Dudu Xiao is also happy to see it." Qingmei said something.

He Yunsheng and He Sui left early, but they were very relieved of Xiao Jue, and they didn't ask any more questions when they knew that He Yan was going to Lianxue Mountain with Xiao Jue. But maybe it's not about Xiao Jue, it's about He Yan. After all, ever since they knew that He Yan chopped off the heads of two Uto people in Liangzhou Wei, the eyes of the father and son looking at He Yan have been very different from the past. .

"Alright, alright," He Yan patted his head, "Just do whatever you want." He Yan grabbed the bag on the table and said with a smile, "I'll go first!"

She didn't ask Qingmei to follow, after all, Qingmei walked too slowly.

The appointment was Chen Shi. He Yan didn't know when Xiao Jue would arrive, so he opened the door first, wanting to see if anyone was outside, and as soon as he opened it, he saw a carriage parked in front of his door, with Fei Nu driving Horse, the curtain of the carriage is half open, Xiao Jue is sitting on the carriage and reading a book.

He Yan was startled, trotted over, and asked him, "When did you arrive? Why didn't you come in when you arrived?"

"Just arrived," Xiao Jue put down the book in his hand, "I thought you weren't awake yet, just wait."

He Yan climbed into the carriage lightly and familiarly, Chiwu started to hurry, He Yan sat down and rubbed his hands, "Have you eaten breakfast?"

Xiao Jue glanced at her and said nothing. He took out a mahogany box from a few steps in the carriage. As soon as he opened it, the aroma was immediately tangy. It was actually hot cakes and a cup of sweet syrup.

"How do you know I haven't eaten yet?" He Yan was greatly moved. She was going up the mountain in the morning, Qingmei was going to comb her hair, she got up early enough, He Yan couldn't bear to ask her to cook for her earlier, so she thought about going to the street to buy two steamed buns before Xiao Jue came. , I never thought that Xiao Jue prepared so thoughtfully.

Xiao Jue raised his eyebrows, "The food in the temple is limited, I'm afraid it won't fill you up."

Seeing that he had prepared breakfast, He Yan didn't care about his teasing about his rice bucket. He Yan gossips with Xiao Jue while eating, "Captain, I heard that the Yuhua Temple on Lianxue Mountain is very spiritual. Once upon a time, there was a very poor man, and the poor family couldn't open the pot. He hid in Yuhua Temple to avoid the rain. At that time, Yuhua Temple was just a broken temple. This beggar looked at the Buddha statue and said, "Buddha, Buddha, please show me a way to survive. The elderly in the family will starve to death. When he fell asleep in the temple, he had a dream, in which the Buddha told him to go home and dig a hole by the well in the courtyard."

Having said that, He Yan deliberately looked at Xiao Jue's expression. Naihe, this person just looked at her with a half-smile, neither in a hurry nor in a hurry, just like listening to a trivial gossip.

He Yan almost suspected that he didn't speak well. If Wang Ba was here, the custody was already nervous and asked: What happened later? What happened afterward?

But at the beginning of the story, it is natural to continue to tell the story.

"When this man woke up, he still remembered what happened in his dream. When he returned home, he carried his hoe at night and went to the well to dig a hole. As he dug, he dug out a bag of gold from the ground."

"When this poor man got gold, he used the gold to do business. Later, he got better and better and became a wealthy local generation. After he had silver money, he went to Yuhua Temple again and gave the abbot of Yuhua Temple a rich incense. The money also helped to renovate the temple, and the Buddha statue was also given a golden body. Later, the Yuhua Temple became more and more spiritual, and people said that the more incense money they donated, the more they can achieve their dreams."

After the story was told, He Yan took the last sip of the sweet syrup, "How about it, Governor, do you think the legend is very powerful?"

Xiao Jue was noncommittal, "Miss He's story is not bad."

He Yan: "..."

This story was indeed made up by her, and she heard it from someone who had forgotten it. Of course, it was not Yuhua Temple, but some other temple. But it was enough to bluff people, but Xiao Jue said it outright. He Yan almost wondered if his ability to bluff people was really going backwards.

Seemingly seeing her frustration aside, Xiao Jue said, "The abbot of Yuhua Temple is very familiar with my elder brother."

He Yan: "Huh?"

"So your story is too fake."

He Yan was silent.

It is indeed a bit embarrassing to lie in front of someone you know. But... she looked at Xiao Jue, "Okay, this temple is not Yuhua Temple, but the story is true. Governor, do you believe that sometimes what happens in the dream may be true?"

Xiao Jue: "Dream?"

"Have you ever thought that maybe what's happening to us now, whether in Liangzhou, Jiyang, or Rundu, is actually just a dream. When you wake up from a dream, you become For the other person, everything he had before has been emptied." Her voice was clear and clear, and seemed to contain other deep meanings, so Xiao Jue couldn't help but glance at her.

He thought about it for a while, and after a while he said, "Even if it's a dream, it doesn't matter."

He Yan looked at him.

"Wake up from the dream, just do it all over again."

He Yan was stunned for a while, but couldn't help lowering his head and laughing.

It is also said that after waking up from the dream, it is just a matter of doing it all over again, just like when she met Xiao Jue in a previous life, and then she died, she was a general in her previous life, and she also made wedding clothes for others. But when she woke up and started all over again, she still met Xiao Jue and became He Yan on the battlefield again.

What is destined to be yours, even if it is temporarily lost, it will come back in another way.

The moon and her sword are the same.

...

It's sunny today and there are many pilgrims.

At the entrance of Yuhua Temple, a carriage stopped, and a young woman helped a woman out of the carriage. This woman was born beautiful and beautiful, but she looked pale and haggard. The woman beside her was born with similar features to her. This was a mother and daughter.

"Mother, walk slowly and watch your steps." He Xinying said softly.

Mrs. He Er nodded lightly.

He Xinying sighed in her heart. When she left home to get married, Mrs. He's health was already bad, and now it is getting worse. This morning, when she went to He's house to pick up her mother into the carriage, when she was supporting her arm, she only felt that Mrs. He's arm was so slender that she could hold it loosely—it was shocking.

"How on earth did Dad take care of you, are all the doctors hired by the mansion for free meals?" He Xinying was dissatisfied, "Why don't I ask my husband to go to the palace and ask a royal doctor for you to come and see, Mother, How can I be at ease like this?"

Mrs. He Er waved her hand, "I'm fine. Don't bother."

He Xinying was both distressed and helpless, and supported Mrs. He and walked in slowly. The He family didn't like going up the mountain to worship Buddha, and the people who went up the mountain today were their mother and daughter. The guards were all waiting outside the temple, and He Xinying took Mrs. He to see the temple host first, and presented the promised incense money.

She didn't really want to come to worship Buddha today, but she was looking for a reason to see her mother, and by the way, she wanted to talk about what she found at Xu's house. But now seeing Mrs. He's so weak appearance, she couldn't say anything.

Forget it, don't worry about these things. As for Xu Zhiheng's doubts, let her find out by herself.

Anyway, it's a long time coming to Japan, so don't be in a hurry.
