Rebirth of a Star General

When going down the mountain, He Yan was a little more silent than when he came before.

Xiao Jue asked, "Still thinking about what happened just now?"

He Yan was afraid of being discovered by him, so he lied casually, "Just listening to what the lady said, I feel a little sad."

Xiao Jue paused for a moment before saying lightly, "Don't worry, you won't become the old grandma Xu."

He Yan lowered her head and smiled. She didn't know what it was like in her heart. Before that, she had already died once. It's just that when I saw Mrs. He Er today, I found that my mother didn't care about me at all.

But if she really cares about herself, why was Mrs. He Er so unfamiliar with her when she was "He Yan"? Madam, do you know the truth?

He Yan would rather she knows nothing, and those who don't know are innocent.

But even if she didn't know about it, Mrs. He must have known about the exchange of identities with He Rufei back then. What kind of mood did a mother have when she pushed her biological daughter out, obviously close at hand. But you can't call it "mother".

He Yan narrowed his eyes.

After a few days, she should also go to Xu's house. Fuwang didn't know what clues had been found. After the palace banquet, He Rufei and Xu Zhiheng must have doubts about her.

She has to hurry up.

...

He Xinying first sent Mrs. He back to the mansion with the guards and servants before returning to Xu's house. Xu Zhiheng was in the study. He didn't go to court today. I don't know what happened. Ever since he returned from the celebration banquet that day, Xu Zhiheng rarely went out. Everyone outside said that he was ill. Of course, He Xinying knew that Xu Zhiheng was in good health. It was more like he had something on his mind than an illness. Sometimes when He Xinying talked to him, he could feel Xu Zhiheng's apparent absent-mindedness.

He Xinying just pretended not to know.

A smart woman should know to reveal her stupidity at the right time. This is the rule learned in the He's backyard. But no matter how stupid you are, you must always have a steel scale in your heart.

That night, Xu Zhiheng, who was rummaging through He Yan's house before his death, looked very different from what she had been in the past day, which made He Xinying feel more suspicious. Now she dares not use the people of the Xu family, she only dares to use the people around her.

She wants to check something.

If these things have nothing to do with him, He Xinying certainly doesn't care. But various things show that it seems that He Yan's death was not that simple. Xu Zhiheng's weirdness will not be mentioned. Today, when my mother met the Marquis of Wu'an with the same name and surname at Yuhua Temple, it was also a gaffe. If there was any inside story about He Yan at the beginning, how could she know that she would not become the next He Yan?

In the He family, women have no status. Even though it was the direct daughter born by Mrs. He Da, the marriage was arranged early, and the marriage of the daughter's family was to pave the way for the man's career. As for whether the person to marry is a human being or a ghost, good or bad, it doesn't really matter, everything is based on interests. This is also the reason why He Yan and Xu Zhiheng got married and the daughter of the He family was so jealous of He Yan. It was because of her marriage, which seemed to be the best choice the He family could choose for her.

But now it seems that there may also be hidden secrets.

"Xiao Liu," she instructed her personal maid, "the past few days, you have been quietly inquiring in the mansion, when my sister He Yan was still there, what happened to the aunt with the surname He, and what happened to the aunt He? Anything wrong will be thrown out."

"What is the grandmother asking about?" Xiaoliu asked strangely.

"I have my own opinion," He Xinying didn't want to say more, "You just need to remember that this matter needs to be kept secret and must not be known to outsiders. The money is more generous. Also, it is best not to mention my sister. Start with Aunt He."

In this way, even if she was accidentally discovered by the Xu family, she could still say that she had eaten it herself, and wanted to know how the auntie in the past was favored by Xu Zhiheng. Instead of revealing that she was secretly investigating the cause of Heyan's death.

People from the Xu family never brought up He Yan on their own initiative, and even avoided He Yan's affairs. There must be a problem.

He Xinying looked at the bright sunlight outside, and suddenly felt that the spacious and bright yard of the Xu family had also become a bit eerie at this moment.

However, even for her own sake, she couldn't live in such a confused way.

...

After worshipping the Buddha, He Yan and Xiao Jue did not go back to their houses directly, but went to the camp of Liangzhou Guard outside the city.

The soldiers of the Nanfu were relatively reserved, but it was probably because Tian Lang did not allow them to talk too much about the private affairs of their superiors. Shen Han, who is Liangzhou Wei, can't handle it. He Yan and a group of soldiers ate and lived together, and they had already formed a "deep friendship". Now I heard that my brother has become a girl and has become the boss's fiancée... Anyway, apart from training soldiers Besides, most of the people are interested in talking about this recently.

When He Yan and Xiao Jue went, they were still training troops, He Yan thought about it, and said to Xiao Jue: "Captain, if you don't go in with me, just stay outside with Coach Shen and the others. If you Go in, even if they have questions they want to ask, they don't dare to ask."

Xiao Jue raised her eyebrows: "Okay." She went to Tian Lang on her own. Since he returned to Beijing, he has been busy with the Xu family, and it is also to let Xu Jingfu relax his vigilance. Very few people come here, and each time he just stays for a while and leaves in a hurry.

After Xiao Jue left, He Yan sat outside the open space for training soldiers in the distance and waited for them.

Not long after the training was over, the soldiers went to eat together in twos and threes, and some people saw He Yan sitting on the edge. He Yan was wearing women's clothes today, and they couldn't recognize it for a while. There was also a soldier who enthusiastically stepped forward and asked with concern: "This girl, who are you looking for?"

He Yan looked at him, stood up and patted the dust on his body, and smiled: "But I haven't seen you for a while, so you don't know me?"

Seeing that the recruit was still staring blankly at her, his face seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember anything, He Yan reminded: "I am the number one guard in Liangzhou."

All of a sudden, the man got excited, swallowed his saliva, and then howled: "Brothers, He Yan—He Yan is here—"

He Yan's voice was so loud that He Yan couldn't help digging out his ears. Then, he saw a large group of people, like cats smelling fishy, ​​all of them "hula" all of a sudden surrounded by them, saying "Where is it?" "Where" "Show me, show me".

He Yan was surrounded by the crowd in an instant.

Probably now she was dressed as a woman, and finally everyone was surprised that she was indeed a woman, and the recruits of Liangzhou Guard did not climb her shoulders as usual, and even looked a little jerky on their faces. Someone even blushed and didn't dare to look at He Yan, so he looked at his own shoe on the ground and asked in a low voice, "That... Brother He... Miss He, how can you be a woman?"

He Yan bowed his hands to everyone and apologized, with a clear voice: "At that time, I really had difficulties, and I joined the army by mistake. I didn't intend to deceive you. Now that the truth is revealed, I think I should come and say sorry to you. The past days are taken care of by everyone. Now, although I am a woman, we are still brothers."

The tone of these words was the same as before, and the cautiousness of everyone just now loosened a little. I just heard another voice from the crowd: "Get out of the way! Where is she?"

He Yan raised his eyes and saw that Wang Ba and his group were walking towards this end from the crowd.

When they were in Liangzhouwei, several of them had the best relationship with He Yan, but even with such a good relationship, they still failed to find out that He Yan's identity was different. Therefore, the shock caused by them is also the biggest. Wang Ba was the most angry, co-authoring that he called a girl the "boss" for a year and a half? Just because of this, he has almost become a joke of Liangzhou Wei in the past few days. Everyone wants to make fun of him. I didn't expect that He Yan himself would slam into the door today, and he must come to seek justice.

Just thinking about it, Wang Ba has already walked in front of He Yan, but just as he was about to speak, he couldn't say a word.

Facing a watery and delicate little girl, she looked at herself with a sly smile, even if she was a ruthless iron man, she would be embarrassed to scold others.

So He Yan saw the big man in front of him with a sullen expression on his face, unable to say a word.

It was the wheat that squeezed out. He was young and enthusiastic. Apart from being surprised at the beginning, he was happy. When he saw He Yan, he was greatly surprised, "Brother Ahe, I didn't expect you to be born. So beautiful! You are amazing!"

"What's your name, Brother He?" Hong Shan slapped him on the forehead, "It's called Miss He." He was also at a loss. They had slept in the same bed before...

"Brother He, how can you be a woman?" Jiang Jiao was also a little unacceptable. He always admired He Yan, because He Yan was about the same age as him, but he always gave him careful guidance in military affairs. There is such a person Best friend, he thinks he has benefited a lot. Now that his best friend has become a "girl", Jiang Jiao can't tell what it's like. He originally thought it must be a misrepresentation, and Bao inquired about something wrong. Now that he sees He Yan standing slim in the crowd, he knows that he can't. Self-deception.

She is really a woman.

Here, Huang Xiong and Shi Shi were the most calm. Shitou didn't like to show his emotions, anger, sadness and joy on his face, but Huang Xiong had never seen anything because of his old age. It was shocking to talk about the disguise of a woman as a man, but it was not new. It's just that some things that I didn't understand at first were answered, such as why He Yan could only live in one room and was very close to Xiao Jue, it turned out to be inconvenient, Xiao Jue wanted to take care of his fiancee.

But this Jade-faced Governor is as ruthless and ruthless as the outsiders say. He also lived in Datongpu, and he followed the team in the morning with heavy loads. If it was another man, he would probably have to pity Xiangxiyu.

"Are you really going to marry the Governor?" Mai asked curiously, "Will you be called Mrs. Xiao Er in the future?"

Wheat was outspoken, and he just said what he wanted to say, but He Yan's face turned red. Her embarrassment was seen by the Liangzhou Guard recruits, and they all coaxed: "Oh, Brother He is shy!"

"I didn't expect that in my lifetime, I would still see Brother He being shy. Heaven, it's not a waste of life!"

He Yan: "..."

After the group of men talked, they called back "Brother He" again, probably because they thought it was a smooth call. Hong Shan scolded Mai and said, "Be careful, don't talk nonsense, she's a girl, you're happy to be told that!"

Wheat covered his head and said aggrievedly: "What's so shy about this."

The men around were delighted: "That's right, Brother He doesn't blush when he claims to be the number one guard in Liangzhou in front of everyone!"

"Are you embarrassed? The number one guard in Liangzhou was captured by a girl. You can't even compare to a little girl. Bai has grown so big."

"Is that an ordinary girl? Is that so? A girl who can be invited by Governor Xiao to go home as his wife, is that an ordinary girl? You can beat you up!"

"I'm not going, you should come."

The clamor outside the martial arts field came from the hut, Shen Han wiped the sweat from his forehead, and Liang Ping, Ma Damei, and other instructors were standing in the room, not daring to move. Who knows if Xiao Jue suddenly came to settle accounts after the autumn. Speaking of which, every teacher here has treated He Yan "severely". Especially Liang Ping.

But it's hard to say. For example, when I was in the hot spring on Baiyue Mountain before, everyone present had a share.

However, at present, it seems that their governor is in a good mood, and he has no intention of punishing people. He just sat in the room and watched the training of the recruits in the guardhouse for the past few days.

"Have the shirts and silver been sent to others?"

Shen Han replied: "It has already been distributed, and I personally visited it."

Some of the recruits who were in the Liangzhou Guard were unable to follow them back to Shuojing, and they wanted to go from house to house to appease their families.

"Don't relax your practice these days," Xiao Jue said.

The instructors nodded.

After another half an hour, after calculating the time, it was time for them to leave. Xiao Jue got up and went out. Shen Han said, "The Governor."

Xiao Jue turned around and looked at him.

Shen Han smiled awkwardly, "That...congratulations."

...

After seeing the recruits, it was almost evening, He Yan and Xiao Jue returned to the city, Xiao Jue first sent He Yan back to He's house, and then returned to the mansion by himself.

"I'll be very busy these few days." Before Xiao Jue could speak, He Yan took the initiative to reply, "There are still many regulations to be given to the conferring of the Marquis of Wu'an, so the Governor can ignore me these few days."

"Do you need help?"

He Yan waved his hands again and again, "No need, I can do it alone."

After Xiao Jue left, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The easy days are coming to an end.

He Yan sorted it out, not being able to teach He Sui and He Yunsheng to see the clues, pinched his face, and only stepped into the door until he squeezed out a smile.

...

On the other end, Xiao Jue returned to the mansion.

Xiao Jing and Bai Rongwei were not there. Ginkgo was watering the flowers in the yard. Seeing Xiao Jue, she shouted crisply, "Second Young Master."

The little girl had specially asked her to serve him because it was convenient for He Yan to live in the yard. After He Yan left, he was busy with Xu Jingfu's affairs, and he forgot about Ginkgo. He didn't expect that Ginkgo was still in the yard now. It's too late today, let Bai Rongwei arrange for her to go to another yard tomorrow morning.

He didn't like the presence of others in the yard.

Xiao Jue entered the house, and Fei Nu went to drive the carriage. Not long after sitting in the room, someone knocked on the door, Xiao Jue: "Come in."

Luan Ying walked in from outside.

"How are the two people on Zhuangzi?" Xiao Jue asked.

"The doctor has seen it, and for the time being, there is no worry about life. Chiwu is still in the trial, and the two have some scruples in their hearts, and they have reservations in their words. Please give me a few more days, until the two are willing to let go and present evidence. "Xu Xiang must not be able to turn over."

"Three days." Xiao Jue said, "At most three days."

"If there is no result in three days, I will try it myself."

Luan Ying nodded, and after a while, she said again: "Young master, besides this, my subordinates discovered something during the investigation process today."

"Say."

"The general He family is investigating us."

Xiao Jue paused slightly and looked up at him: "He Rufei?"

Luan Ying nodded, "It should be that He Yuansheng and He Yuanliang are not as good as him in terms of connections and means in the court. His actions are very secretive and careful, but he may be a little impatient and reveal his flaws."

"Did he find out about the rumors that spread in Fang City before?"

"No, young master," Luan Ying's expression was very solemn, "and, if it's just for rumors, he doesn't need to check the details of Miss He."

Xiao Jue's eyes suddenly sharpened: "He Yan?"

"Not bad." Luan Ying said: "He is not only checking Young Master, but also Miss He."

Xiao Jue's face darkened slightly.

Because of his relationship with Xu Jingfu, if Xu Jingfu's men wanted to deal with him, they would hit He Yan's head. After all, He Yan has no family background. Even if he has the title of Marquis of Wu'an, he has not yet formed his own network in the court. The foundation is too shallow, and it is easy to be uprooted.

But if He Ru insisted on hitting He Yan, it would be a big mistake.

"Master, there is one more thing..." Luan Ying hesitated, as if he didn't know whether to say it or not.

When she rarely does, Xiao Jue asks, "What's the matter?"

Luan Ying thought for a while, and after a while, she said with determination: "The Xu family in the Hanlin scholar's mansion is also investigating Miss He."

"The Xu family?" Xiao Jue frowned. If He Rufei was investigating Xiao Jue because of Xu Jingfu's relationship, or because he had previously asked people to spread his rumors in the market, He Yan was implicated, but the Xu family was not in the game. It is also intriguing to insert a section horizontally.

"Just looking at Heyan?"

"Just check Heyan."

Since he only checked Heyan, he had nothing to do with the Xiao family. Then the question arises, what is the relationship between He Yan and the Xu family in the past, so that the Xu family is so rashly dispatched.

After a while, Xiao Jue said, "Continue to do your business, but after today, check with the Xu family."

Something was wrong that was ignored, just like Mrs. He Er met in the Yuhua Temple today, and her behavior also revealed strangeness.

There must be something strange between the Xu family and the He family.

There are two more~
