[Fifth Personality] Nian Nian Hanchun Dongfeng Remnant [Soul of Umbrella Dongfengyao]

It's not easy to be so cold.He's just not good at expressing his emotions, and he has a naturally dignified appearance, so it's easy to be mistaken for a bad temper.

But Xie Bi'an, who has been with Fan Wujiu for a while, knows very well that Fan Wujiu is upright, kind, and of good conduct, and he is one of the few existences that can make him feel at ease.

On the eve of New Year's Eve when he was ten years old, Xie's family sent someone to invite Xie Bi'an to return home to celebrate the new year.

Xie Bi'an smiled and asked Fan Wujiu: "Wujiu would like to go back with me to spend the New Year's Eve?" and turned a blind eye to his behavior of glancing at the top of his head from time to time.

Fan Wujiu, who was depressed that Xie Bi'an was taller than himself, didn't listen carefully, and responded indiscriminately: "Um..."

After being dazed for a while, it was like waking up from a dream: "...Huh? Go back with Brother An?"

Xie Bi'an couldn't help laughing: "Yes."

Before Fan Wujiu could reply, Mr. Kong who was drinking tea first said, "Wujiu and Bi'an go back together. It happens that some old friends who haven't seen for many years come back from Fengxi and want to go out with me."

Even Mr. Kong said this, Fan Wujiu naturally agreed.

Xie Bi'an is the eldest son of the Xie family. His mother died of illness when he was five years old, and his father followed him two years later.

The ostentation of going back to the mansion this time was not small, and it was known to the whole city.

"Such a big battle, what is this going to do?"

"You haven't heard of it? The eldest son of the Xie family is back!"

"Eldest son? Isn't the eldest son of the Xie family always in the house?"

"The current mistress of the Xie family is Xuxian, so he is not the eldest son."

"Then why..."

"You don't know that. It is said that this eldest son was hit with evil spirits. He was not only weak and sick, but also killed his own mother. He is the lone star of evil spirits! So he was sent out to be raised since he was a child."

"Ah, that's how it is..."

In the carriage, Xie Bi'an hadn't reacted yet, Fan Wujiu couldn't listen anymore.

"They're all guys who should have their tongues pulled out." Fan Wujiu clenched his fists, wishing he could tear the mouths of those who have broken mouths with his own hands, "Brother An is definitely not a lone star!" He said this angrily, but Looking at Xie Bi'an, his gaze was extremely firm.

Xie Bi'an felt warm in his heart, and a gentle smile appeared in his eyes: "Well, it's fine if you trust me."

On this trip back home, Xie Bi'an was already prepared to face these rumors.

In the four years since he was sent to Fengshan, the mansion rarely asked Xie Bi'an except for food and clothing.

It's funny, but this time it was his father's Xuxian who offered to invite him back for the New Year's Eve.Everyone who heard about it praised Madam Xie for her kindness and demeanor.

Since this stepmother, whom she has never met before, needs to make a good name for her, then it is up to her to accompany her through the process.

The family rules are complicated.At the end of the day, just looking at the various cumbersome etiquettes of the Xie family makes one feel exhausted.Fan Wujiu knew that Xie Bi'an hated such occasions the most, but what surprised him was that Xie Bi'an was able to deal with so many people with different thoughts today, and he was able to handle it with ease...

After the prosperity of the fireworks, what remains is bleakness.Xie Bi'an still didn't feel sleepy, so he put on his clothes and sat alone in the yard, sniffing the cool fragrance of yellow plums in the air.

One person against the January night.

Mingming had just come out of the room with the fire, but Xie Bi'an only felt the coldness piercing his bones.

Crossing the shadow of cranes in the cold pond, burying the soul of flowers in the cold moon.

Suddenly there was the sound of footsteps behind him.

"Brother An." Fan Wujiu called softly, holding a cloak in his hand.

Seeing that it was Fan Wujiu who came, Xie Bi'an couldn't help being surprised: "Why is Wujiu still awake?"

Fan Wujiu shook his head, put the cloak in his hand on Xie Bian, and then sat down beside Xie Bian.

He knew that Xie Bi'an felt uncomfortable after coming down yesterday.

The two looked at each other silently, tacitly.

After a long time, Xie Bi'an said softly: "No fault..."

His lowered eyes were dimmed.

"This place...in the future, I may never come back again."

This is the meaning of the father, but also his own meaning.

Shaoyan, Xie Bi'an suddenly smiled again:

"...That's fine, you don't have to take your family into account when you do what you do in the future."

Xie Bi'an's smile is so desolate, just like his figure reflected in the pond by the moonlight.

With the smile still on the corner of his mouth, Xie Bi'an was pulled into a hug.

"Don't laugh like that..." Fan Wujiu's hoarse voice sounded beside his ears, "I will feel bad too..."

Fan Wujiu just wanted to hug Xie Bi'an tightly.

Xie Bi'an didn't expect Fan Wujiu to react like this, a look of helplessness flashed across his handsome face.

"Fool... what are you doing when you feel uncomfortable?"

Xie Bi'an smiled wryly, and hugged Fan Wujiu back.

Fan Wujiu buried his face on Xie Bi'an's shoulder, muttered for a long time, and said in a muffled voice:

"Brother An said, I am your family. Now, it doesn't count...?"

That sentence... Wu Jiu still remembers that sentence!

Xie Bi'an's eyes widened in disbelief, and he opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.

At that time Fan Wujiu had a severe fever, sometimes he was awake, sometimes he was in a daze.Xie Bi'an really didn't know if Wu Jiu heard clearly when he said those words.

He always thought that it was just his own wishful thinking, his own self-indulgence...

It turns out...it turns out there is no fault...

"Why don't you count..."

Xie Bi'an couldn't restrain the joy rolling in his heart anymore, it turned into a teardrop and bloomed from the corner of his eye.

He was so happy, really happy.

The two hugged each other for a long time, snuggling up to keep warm in the moonlit night surrounded by the fragrance of yellow plum blossoms...

As the son of a family, Xie Bi'an received strict education since he was a child.No matter in temperament or appearance, they are like polished jade in the rough. Everyone who met him praised him for his kindness and gentleness.

The gentle and jade-like appearance can always easily deceive other people's eyes, so this has become Xie Bi'an's most authentic disguise.

But if you peel off the layers of warmth wrapped outside, it will be another world.

At the end of his gentle water-like pupils is a mist-like innocence and alienation, and behind his hazy moon-like smile is a cold spring-like calmness and indifference.

He is the moon in the water that breaks at the touch of a touch, and the flower in the mirror that is out of reach.

Xie Bi'an's heart was cold, so cold that he himself would shiver from it, and it has been like this since his mother passed away.

Until, he met a boy named "Fan Wujiu".

He has a cold face and a warm heart, and he always likes to say that he loves to be brave and deserves to suffer, while taking the thick stack of books from himself, and he refuses to let himself move it no matter how much he persuades him.

He is not good at words, but he will pretend to inquire about his birthday from Mr. Kong unintentionally, and then secretly make a gift himself, and quietly put it beside his pillow.

He is firm and stubborn, and once he makes up his mind about something, ten bulls cannot hold him back.

He is strong and promises, although he doesn't talk much, but he will do what he says, and he will do what he says.

Obviously they are diametrically opposed to themselves, but fate accidentally brought them together.

It's not confrontation, it's mutual generation and mutual complementarity.

The invisible knot thus connected the lives of the two of them together.From the moment Fan Wujiu hugged him tightly, Wujiu was the only bondage in his life, and it was also his salvation when all thoughts were lost...

For Xie Bi'an, Fan Wujiu is the candlelight that warms him on a snowy winter night.It seems weak and silent, but it will never be annihilated by the wind and snow.

On the endless road, no matter what year Xie Bi'an was, where he went, Fan Wujiu was always by his side firmly when he looked back, and never left.

It was their first expedition, he and Fan Wujiu walked side by side under the scorching sun, their spirits were high.

"No fault."

Xie Bi'an, who traced the profile of Fan Wujiu's handsome profile with his eyes, suddenly recalled Fan Wujiu's name.

Fan Wujiu looked at Xie Bi'an upon hearing the sound, waiting for his next words.

Xie Bi'an laughed and said, "Death and life are in agreement, let's talk to Zicheng——"

Fan Wujiu was stunned for a moment, and finally a knowing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:

"Hold your hand and grow old with your son."

As Daxing fighters, they also swear here as confidantes and brothers, and the heaven and the earth are witnesses.

They will hold each other's hands tightly and gallop across the battlefield, fighting side by side, living and dying together.

But why...why did Wugui's face and voice suddenly become so hazy?

In the blink of an eye, everything in front of him collapsed and disappeared instantly, and Xie Bi'an also completely lost consciousness.

I don't know how long it took, Xie Bi'an's senses gradually recovered, but that would be better than losing them completely.

He seemed to be imprisoned in a blazing furnace.The heat scorched him, but he had nowhere to escape.The pain in his abdominal cavity was as sharp as a knife, and it spread round and round like ripples.

It hurts, it's hot...

Consciousness was continuously eroded by the scalding fire and extreme pain like a paste.Desperation wrapped him up, repeatedly.

Xie Bi'an felt more and more tired.

Go to sleep, just go to sleep like this...

In the long dream, there is no pain, no despair, only endless peace and comfort...

He began to let his body sink and fall.

But if you just fell asleep like this, what should you do without blame?

An urgent voice sounded in my mind.

...what to do without blame?Xie Bi'an murmured.

Have you forgotten the oath he made for you three years ago?

"Even if we can't fight side by side with Brother An, Brother Jiu will make an oath here today to wait in the city until Brother An returns and never leave!"

"The mountains have no mausoleums, and the rivers are exhausted. The thunder in winter shakes, and the rain and snow in summer. The heaven and the earth are united, so you dare to break your promise!"

Fan Wujiu's sonorous and forceful voice suddenly echoed in Xie Bi'an's ears.

...Wu Jiu, Wu Jiu is still waiting for him in Nantai.

He also said... When he returns in triumph, he will travel around the world with Wu Jiu and make the world his home.

no...he can't sleep...

Xie Bi'an no longer allowed himself to sink, and struggled with all his might.

Suddenly, he found that he was crawling on the edge of a steep cliff, and he was holding a person hanging in mid-air in his hand.

That's... Qi Kuo!

"My lord, let go."

Qi Kuo looked up at Xie Bi'an.

How can Xie Bi'an really let go?Only struggling to say:

"Don't say stupid things... hold on for a while!"

Qi Kuo quietly looked at Xie Bi'an who was trying to pull himself up, but kept sinking due to lack of strength, and then said suddenly:

"It's an honor for Qi Kuo to be by your side for so many years."

He showed Xie Bi'an a decisive smile: "Go back quickly, my lord, General Fan is still waiting for you in Nantai."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Kuo took the initiative to take his hand from Xie Bi'an's.

"Qi Kuo—!"

The picture in front of me shattered and turned into countless fluttering butterflies flying away, turning into boundless daylight.

Xie Bi'an stood there blankly, unable to find his way.

"Brother An..."

It was a low, magnetic voice.

"Brother An..."

Is it innocent...?

"This way..."

A burst of cold plum fragrance hits, accompanied by Fan Wujiu's voice, guiding Xie Bi'an to keep moving in one direction...Keep moving...

The author has something to say: They are each other's salvation.

☆, go home

.....

"Wake up, the general is awake!"

Xie Bi'an struggled to open his eyes, only to feel that his eyelids were extremely heavy.What caught the eye was not the steep mountains, but the gray and white camp tops.

Several generals and military doctors around him looked at him in surprise.

"...how long have I been asleep?"

Xie Bi'an found that his voice was weak and hoarse, and his throat was dry and sore.

"It's been about half a month." The military doctor replied, helped Xie Bi'an to feed him some water.

The general was shot in the abdomen by random arrows, and the wound was infected due to failure to treat it in time, so that he had a high fever and fell into a coma.

The military doctor was helpless, saying that he could only look at the general's own good luck.

Fortunately, the general survived...

Xie Bi'an nodded slightly, and asked again: "...Where is Qi Kuo?"

As soon as the words fell, the expressions of several generals suddenly changed, and they looked at each other.

"...The General's condolences."

Xie Bian understood.

Sure enough...it's not a dream.

Xie Bi'an's chest felt tight and aching.

"The general wants to rest, and I will retire at the end." Seeing that the tired look on Xie Bi'an's brows had not dissipated, several generals retreated voluntarily.

The military doctor also clasped his fists: "Young one, go and dispense medicine for the general."

"Ah."

Quiet was restored in the camp.

There is a familiar and elegant fragrance in the air.Looking sideways, it turned out to be the plum fragrance exuded by Xiangchen beside the pillow.

Xie Bi'an picked it up, brought it close to the tip of his nose and sniffed lightly.

In the dream, it guides me to come out.

Xie Bi'an suddenly remembered what the lame priest had said——

"Your son is destined to have three catastrophes. If you win a noble man, you can save yourself from danger."

sir...

Fan Wujiu's voice calling him still lingers in his ears.

Xie Bi'an showed an imperceptible smile at the corner of his mouth, and his already gentle eyebrows and eyes became softer.

His nobleman is innocent...

Xie Bi'an gently soaked the ink-colored fringe of chasing fragrance dust into the palm of his hand, and let it blend between his fingers...

After waking up, Xie Bi'an continued to lie on the bed for three days before he was able to get off the ground.

This period of time must have caused Wugui to worry...

Xie Bi'an felt a little guilty.

The war is over, and in a few days we will leave for Nantai, and we will see him in less than a month.

But before that, there are still some things that have not been dealt with.

Xie Bi'an casually walked through the layers of tents in the barracks, and came to a tent that was strictly guarded by guards.

When the guards saw Xie Bi'an, they all saluted respectfully: "General."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Xie Bi'an nodded, telling them not to be too polite.

This tent is opaque and very dark. It was originally used to hold war criminals, but now it has added beds, tables, chairs and other items.

There was a person sitting beside the bed. If you looked closely, you could find that there was still a pair of shackles tied around his ankles.

He hunched his back and bowed his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xie Bi'an greeted with a smile: "How is your son?"

The man slowly raised his head, and when he saw who was coming, his eyes were instantly filled with hatred: "...Xie Bi'an, you are not dead yet."

He is the eldest son of the Duke of Zhen and the general of Daxing Hussars, Mo Rong.

Xie Bi'an was still polite: "Thanks to your son."

Mo Rong clenched his fists and looked at Xie Bi'an resentfully.

"Hehe..." Mo Rong laughed in a low voice, which gradually turned into a maniacal laugh. "Hahaha... The general is really scheming, he has deceived everyone!"

On the day when Qilian was defeated, 3 of Daxing's [-] troops were lost when they retreated, and only [-] remained in place.

But in fact, the remaining troops did not have 7 at all, only 8, and the remaining [-] were missing!

It turned out that Xie Bi'an had already expected that the North Witch was ambushing in Huiyixiantian Canyon, so he simply used his plan to cheat his death and take away [-] troops, and sneaked across the Suolong Road.

This plan was not Xie Bi'an's temporary idea, it was planned long before the deployment was discussed.

Everyone knows that Suolong Road is dangerous, with high mountains and deep valleys, and difficult food transportation, there is no way to go.So Xie Bi'an led the soldiers to walk in the uninhabited land for more than [-] li, digging mountain passages, building bridges and pavilions, climbing trees and cliffs, and filing in.

In just half a month, only 8 of the 1 people remained, and the casualties were extremely tragic.

Xie Bi'an's attendant, Qi Kuo, also fell to his death while crossing the Suolong Road.

Xie Bi'an endured his grief and led the remaining 1 people to seize the Tiange.

The 2 people who stayed in Qilian were led by the left and right generals, guarding near the Yixiantian Canyon, and sent [-] troops to fight every day.

On the seventh day, some people were sent to feign an attack.

After testing, Beiwu's 5 troops left in Qilian are now only [-], and the remaining [-] went back to defend Suyang after our army retreated.

So Xie Bi'an merged with the 2 people who stayed behind, directly attacked and quickly captured Qilian.

Then they attacked Su Yang from Qilian.

By the time Bei Wu noticed it, our army had already opened a big gap in the rear of Suyang City, and it was too late.

Unpredictable, attacking it unprepared.

Mo Rong smiled numbly, expressionless: "...tell me, when did you know?"

Xie Bi'an was kind, he always answered every question, and answered his questions patiently: "Before, I only admired General Beiwu's ingenuity, and he seemed to be able to guess the deployment of our army...until Qi Kuo picked up the prince accidentally. I only confirmed the lost letter after overhearing the conversation between the prince and the North Witch."

Do you admire General Beiwu's ingenuity? "Accidentally" lost? Overheard "accidentally"?

Xie Bi'an was suspicious of him early on, but since there was no substantive evidence, he sent someone to monitor and intercept his letters!

"...Okay, Xie Bi'an, you're doing great!"

Mo Rong was so angry that Xie Bi'an laughed.

There are 1 troops marching in Qilian every day, and the flags they hold are of different colors. After seven days, there are seven different colors.So Mo Rong firmly believed in the news that "there are more than [-] troops left in Qilian", and the same was true for the news passed to Beiwu.

The rumor that Xie Bi'an's whereabouts were unknown was also spread by Mo Rong's people, trying to sway people's hearts.It's a pity that Xie Bi'an suddenly appeared before it spread widely, and led the soldiers to quickly defeat Beiwu.

"Since that's the case, the truth about the assassination four years ago... I think you know it too."

Xie Bi'an's eyes suddenly turned cold.

Of course he knew.

The mastermind behind the assassination four years ago was none other than Mo Rong.

"Hahaha, Xie Bi'an, you are a great general, but you have won the heart of the Holy One."

Fearless of Xie Bi'an's gradually icy eyes, Mo Rong laughed wantonly again.

"The country is a board—you and I, but we are all chess pieces! Chess pieces!! Chess pieces!!! Hahaha..."

Mo Rong kept repeating the word "chess piece", laughing worse than crying, on the verge of madness.

Xie Bi'an didn't seem to be moved at all, and only calmly called the guards outside: "The prince's hysteria has occurred again, so hurry up and bring the medicine to the prince."

"Yes."

After a while, the guard brought over a bowl of dark soup, squeezed Mo Rong's cheeks and poured it down for him, then locked his jaw to prevent him from spitting it out.

Mo Rong retched a few times, but couldn't spit out anything, and soon passed out.

Xie Bi'an glanced at him indifferently, turned and left.

It wasn't poison, just something to calm him down.

The Holy Majesty has received the secret report of the collusion between Morong and the Northern Witch, and it is also the Holy Majesty's intention to imprison him, and he will be released after returning to Nantai.

That's the end of the matter.After arranging many matters, it was time to return to the city.

Riding high above the steed, Xie Bi'an took one last look back at the scenery of the frontier fortress that had lasted for three years, turned around and set off without nostalgia.

Xie Bi'an began to look forward to the moment when he stepped into Nantai City.

Wu Jiu said that he would pick him up at the gate of the city himself...

The road from the frontier to Nantai was smooth and rainy, and it took nearly a month.Xie Bi'an felt that this month was longer than a year.

On this day, God seemed to make a special trip to celebrate Xie Bi'an's triumphant return. The sun was shining brightly and the birds were singing.

Just like on the day of the expedition three years ago, the gates of the city were crowded with people.Most of them were women, all stretched their necks, scrambling to see the demeanor of this wise and brave general.

A young man riding a fine horse appeared first at the city gate.Accompanied by bursts of cheers from the people, he led the mighty army behind him slowly into the city gate.

"Hey, who is the young master with flowers on the front of his brows...?" Many people had never seen Xie Bi'an's real face, so they made doubtful voices.

"This is General Xie!" an insider explained.

"What!? General Xie is so young!"

Born so handsome, like a banished fairy, those who didn't know thought it was someone's noble son.

"That's not some flower tin, but the seal of Mr. Kong's teacher."

"Oh, that's it!"

The great general's eyes were like water, and he smiled gently at the people who greeted him.His smile made many women blush, and some bold ones threw flowers and sachets at him.

May I ask who doesn't like such a gentle and resourceful general?

From the moment Xie Bi'an entered the city gate, he was looking for Fan Wujiu with his eyes.

Unfortunately, he did not see that familiar figure.

It doesn't matter, you will see that there is no blame later...

According to the procedure, Xie Bi'an will go back to the mansion first for rectification, and some palace officials will come to pick Xie Bi'an into the palace later.

"Welcome the General to return home."

There were already people waiting for Xie Bi'an at the gate of the General's Mansion, and they welcomed him into the mansion respectfully.

On the way into the mansion, Xie Bi'an learned about some recent major events in Nantai from his servants.Among them, the most shocking thing is that Duke Zhen and the prime minister colluded with the Northern Witch and secretly raised private soldiers.The prime minister had been thrown into the sky prison half a month ago, and the Duke of Zhenguo committed suicide in fear of crime.

Xie Bi'an didn't have any distractions, went back to his room and hurriedly changed his clothes before going out.

Passing through the courtyard connecting the two mansions, Xie Bi'an soon came to Fan Wujiu's mansion.He hesitated outside the door for a while, and finally mustered up the courage to call out the name that always made him smile.

"No blame—"

☆, the old man has brushed his clothes

Reunited after a long absence, there are too many words in my heart that I want to say to him, even Xie Bi'an, who has always been calm, can't help but feel a little nervous.

After a while, a person came out of the mansion.

"Congratulations to General Xie on his triumphant return."

Xie Bi'an was slightly startled, and quickly recognized the person who came: "...Cheng Shuo?"

Cheng Shuo nodded and joked, "The general still remembers his subordinates, and his subordinates are terrified."

Xie Bi'an said softly: "Why did this happen?" After a pause, he asked again: "...But Wugui is inside?"

Cheng Shuo clasped his fists in both hands, his face suddenly became serious:

"Return to the general, Mr. Fan specially left his subordinates in the mansion to welcome the general on his behalf, and passed on a message."

...message?

"After Mr. Fan learned the truth about the assassination, he was completely disheartened by the bitter dispute between the government and the opposition, so he decided to go back to the mountains and forests. He left half a month ago."

...Did you leave half a month ago?

Xie Bi'an seemed to be in a dream for a while.

"...in this way."

He tried hard to show his usual smile, but he found that the corners of his mouth couldn't move up.

He understood why Fan Wujiu hated the dispute between the government and the opposition so much.

Zhen Guogong was found to be colluding with the enemy country and raising private soldiers secretly, so Mo Rongding was ordered by his father to send a message to Beiwu.But Zhen Guogong belongs to the prime minister's faction, so the so-called "secretly raising private soldiers" and "colluding with the northern witches" are actually done by the prime minister, and Zhen Guogong is only doing things for him.

Therefore, the mastermind behind the assassination was obviously Mo Rong, but in fact he was the prime minister.

The prime minister wanted to rebel, so he chose to join forces with Beiwu.

Xie Bi'an and Fan Wujiu have held military power in recent years and made great achievements in battle. They both have a heart for the world and are loyal to their family and country. They don't belong to any faction. For the Prime Minister and the Northern Wu, it is a serious problem, so they must be attacked first. In addition to future troubles.

As for why the prime minister specially asked Morong to be the "behind the scenes"...

Everyone in the court knew that General Hussars and the two great generals had always been at odds and had old hatreds, so even if Morong was found out, it would be considered "reasonable" and would not implicate the prime minister at all.

It's just that the assassination only injured Wu Jiu and failed to take their lives.

However, this failed assassination can just be used as a reason to raise troops against the North Witch.

As for the benefits of a war between the two countries for the prime minister——

War is uncertain, and no one can predict success or failure until the end.If Daxing was "defeated", it would be "reasonable".The prime minister can take this opportunity to raise troops to force the palace and win the throne.

And Mo Rong is a hussar general who knows the internal military situation. Once the army has any secret deployment, Mo Rong can promptly inform the North Witch.

Who wouldn't hate such intrigues?

But...Wu Jiu left in such a hurry, and didn't even say goodbye to himself, was it because he was afraid that he would say goodbye?

Or...

Wugui is avoiding his own madness...?

"In addition, Master Fan was married a month ago."

Cheng continued to add.

...

...Wu Jiu, Wu Jiu is already married! ?

"Lord Fan and Qianhong fell in love with each other, and they got married. The husband and wife sang in harmony, raised eyebrows, and Qianhong was expecting a son..."

Qianhong...

Xie Bi'an remembered her.

She is the innocent doctor bestowed by the Holy One.He has superb medical skills and is born with bright eyes and good looks.

Qian Hong usually stays with Wu Jiu every step of the way, and is responsible for Wu Jiu's diet and daily life, so she must have put a lot of effort into taking care of Wu Jiu.

As for myself, it has been three years since I left...

Xie Bi'an was dumb, a little speechless.

With her here, Wu Jiu must be able to take good care of her...

Then, Cheng Shuo took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Xie Bi'an:

"This is a letter from Lord Fan to the general."

Xie Bi'an took it and unfolded it slowly.

It's the handwriting of innocent.Xie Bi'an will never admit mistakes.

Brother An:

Zhanxin is good, seeing words is like meeting.Nantai has been separated for three years, and I miss it very much.

The struggle between the government and the opposition is impermanent and ruthless; when the heart is tired, go back and brush your clothes.

On the spur of the moment, Brother Jiu knew it was really abrupt.However, I have made up my mind, and I hope Brother An will forgive Brother Jiu for his reckless actions and leave without saying goodbye!

Brother Jiu and Qian Hong stayed together day and night, fell in love with each other for a long time, and they got married.And because of time constraints, it is a pity that we could not hold a big wedding.

Under Qianhong's careful care, brother Jiu's health is no longer serious, and brother Lao An has taken care of him all these years.

Brother Jiu is unrighteous, and I am afraid it will be difficult to keep his promise.

Broken trust in brother An, brother Jiu is unforgivable, and deserves to be hacked into pieces!

However, even though the world is far apart, Brother Jiu will always remember the brotherhood between you and me, and will never forget it.

Don't look for it, don't read it.

May Er Zhenxiang be safe and healthy for the rest of his life.

Evil Brother: Fan Wujiu

Nian Han eight years in May

Don't look, don't read...

No fault, this is to completely cut off his thoughts...

Wugui knows himself too well.Xie Bi'an smiled wryly.

If that's what you want... then I'll do what you want.

Xie Bi'an has never been able to refuse Fan Wujiu.

It's okay... if you don't say goodbye, it's not considered parting.

Thinking of this, Xie Bi'an felt a little relieved.

He carefully folded the letter paper and put it in the skirt of his clothes, cherishing it like a treasure.

Suddenly, Cheng Shuo knelt down on one knee towards Xie Bi'an.

"General, Mr. Fan has left, now Cheng Shuo has nowhere to go, I implore the general to bring Cheng Shuo under his command. Cheng Shuo will devote himself to the general and die!"

Xie Bi'an lowered his eyes, staring at Cheng Shuo who was kneeling in front of him for a long time.

"...It means innocent."

Xie Bi'an's tone did not seem to be asking.

Cheng said bowed his head and remained silent.

Xie Bi'an sighed softly, and stretched out his hand to help: "Get up, you will follow me from now on."

"Thank you sir."

Seeing Cheng Shuo, Xie Bi'an seemed to see the scene where Qi Kuo resolutely pulled out his hand and fell off the cliff.

"...I'm really sorry that I couldn't bring Qi Kuo back."

Xie Bi'an's voice was very soft, and it contained too many things.

Cheng Shuo shook his head: "Wealth is up to fate, life and death are up to heaven, adults don't have to blame themselves for it. For my brother, it is an honor to die for the country." He comforted softly, "Brother said that to have He is very happy to be qualified to be born and die with an adult."

Cheng Shuo's face similar to Qi Kuo's is now smiling with tears in his eyes, making Xie Bian feel like a stick in his throat...

In the evening, Xie Bi'an went to the palace to receive the title.

Sitting in the carriage, watching the festoons and festoons outside the window, the lights are brightly lit, and my thoughts gradually fade away.

He knew that the Holy Majesty was very clear from the very beginning that Mo Rong was the mastermind behind the assassination of him and Wugui.After all, with the ability of Dali Temple, how could it not be found out.

But after the truth of the incident was found out, the prime minister privately hinted to the Holy Majesty that since all the evidence on the surface pointed to the Northern Witch, then this was a good opportunity to crusade against the Northern Witch.

The Holy Majesty had long wanted to attack the Northern Witches, and just needed such a reason to send troops, so he acquiesced to the prime minister's opinion, and also asked the Hussar General to follow the General to go to the Northern Witches to make up for his mistakes, so he will not be held accountable.

In this way, the prime minister not only saved the hussar general who obeyed him, but also got a chance to join forces with the Northern Witch.

What's more, everyone knows that General Xie and General Fan have been childhood sweethearts since they were young, and they have a deep friendship. They are not relatives but they are better than relatives.General Fan was poisoned by the Northern Witch, how could General Xie not hate him?

Let me ask again, let a general who hates the enemy country go to the enemy country, why wouldn't he go all out to avenge his good brother?

Xie Bi'an covered his eyes, almost laughing.

The world is a plate, and Wu Jiu is a victim of being "eaten".

And I am just a pawn.

How could he and Wu Jiu not feel chilled by being so used by a country that he wholeheartedly loyal to...

"Fortunately, the emperor said, there are northern witches who are assassinating and invading our frontiers. The general of our dynasty Zhenbei is resourceful, wise and brave, and has made great achievements in suppressing the rebellion. Ten thousand households and thirty thousand pieces of silk. This—”

His Majesty, a eunuch read the Ming Huang imperial edict aloud in a high-pitched voice.

Xie Bi'an in the hall has envied the eyes of many people.

Not to mention the abundance of rewards.Duke, this is the Duke's first class!

But Xie Bi'an didn't make any waves.With a heart like a mirror, how could he not know that the Holy One is "compensating" himself.

Xie Bi'an quietly concealed the indifference in his eyes, and said thank you: "Thank you, Your Majesty. Long live, long live, long live, long live, long live, long live, long live, long live, long live your majesty."

"Aiqing excuse me." The Holy One kindly excused Xie Bi'an, looking at him with appreciation in his eyes. "Aiqing deserves a reward for his great contribution to pacifying the Northern Witch! What wish does Aiqing have? I will do my best to fulfill it."

A hundred officials can't get over their tongues.What a great honor it is to have a wish granted by His Majesty!

Xie Bi'an seemed to think seriously for a moment, then hesitatingly said: "...I would like to report to the emperor, I do have something to ask."

"Oh? Ai Qing just speak up."

"My minister was injured by random arrows, and his body is in a bad condition. I fear that it will be difficult to return to the battlefield." Xie Bi'an clasped his fists and saluted with auspiciousness. "Sui Weichen wants to return the soldier talisman and resign from the post of 'General'."

As soon as the voice fell, there was an instant silence in the store, so quiet that a needle could be heard falling on the ground.

Is Xie Bi'an crazy?It is the most glorious time, how can you resign in a good manner?

The Holy Majesty stared at His Highness who was neither humble nor overbearing, and remained silent for a long time.

Xie Bi'an also kept the posture of saluting, motionless.

"...Aiqing, have you thought about it clearly?" The Holy One stroked his beard.

"My minister has made up his mind, and I hope His Majesty will fulfill it."

After a while, the Holy Majesty nodded helplessly: "...In that case, I will follow Ai Qing's wishes." His eyes were full of regrets, "Give Zhen Guogong a thousand taels of gold and ten thousand pieces of silk!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xie Bi'an saluted again, his eyes obscured by eyelashes were dim.

The Holy One is suspicious, and he also knows that he already understands the ins and outs of the matter, so he is inevitably worried that he will hold a grudge because of being used, and have thoughts of revenge.If the military power continues to remain in his own hands, it will only increase suspicion.

Moreover, becoming a great general stems from the childhood agreement between him and Wu Jiu.Now that Wu Jiu has left, it loses all meaning.

What's more, he is also tired...

He was clearly in the bustling palace banquet, but Xie Bi'an felt exhausted physically and mentally, and his eyes were cold.

It was late at night, Xie Bi'an dismissed all the servants, and sat alone at the stone table in the courtyard to have a drink.

The remaining temperature of the day is not exhausted, but there is no noise of cicadas in the daytime, and a short and precious tranquility is obtained.

The yellow plum tree in the courtyard is luxuriant and has produced many fruits.Xie Bi'an really didn't expect that the tree planted by Wu Jiu back then has grown so big now, he was surprised and sighed.

I still remember that at that time, they played the song "Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms" together under this yellow plum tree.

"I once walked alone on the white waterfront, and the first plum blossoms and the remaining snow were ecstasy;"

"Bring honor and invite friends to walk under the forest, spend together, remember drunk and forget to ponder;"
