General, there is a demon [Rebirth]

The sky was blue and white, the full moon was faintly visible, and the air seemed to be covered with ice.

Chongrenfang, the mansion of the Duke of Jin.

The night watchman yawned and opened the door, looked outside, and found that the streets were quiet, nothing unusual, yawned and wanted to go back to sleep.

Suddenly, a rush of horseshoes came from the entrance of the alley.

Immediately afterwards, someone blocked the gate that was about to be closed. The porter looked lazily, and the Lingtai was clear at the moment. He hurriedly said please wait a moment, and then quickly ran towards the courtyard.

Duke's Mansion, Inner Court.

The interior is full of spring, and there are burnt red candles on the small table in the corner.

Xiao Duo, who had always been a light sleeper, was currently hugging the sleeping Huo Changying contentedly.

The young man's lips were ruddy and slightly swollen, and his chest was half open, revealing his jade-like skin, with dots spreading from his neck all the way down, it was enough to see that the young man was loved and loved last night.

Xiao Duo saw that he was sleeping cutely, his heart moved slightly, his eyes settled on the bright red lips, when he was leaning over, he suddenly heard a rush of soft footsteps coming from outside, from far to near, stopped outside the house.

Xiao Duo's face suddenly became serious, his brows furrowed, and his sharp eyes instantly swept to the outer room.

The boy who was about to raise his hand to knock on the door suddenly trembled. He shook his head, took a breath, and knocked lightly twice.

The voice was deliberately kept extremely low, for fear that the boy would wake up the person inside. He hadn't forgotten that the faint sound of "pu chi" came from the house last night, and it gradually stopped in the middle of the night.

The little servant swallowed, and called out in a low voice: "My lord, Your Majesty,"

Before he finished speaking, the door opened from the inside, and Xiao Duo, who was wearing only his middle coat and a simple cloak, came out from the room. He turned around and closed the door softly, and led the servant away, before asking with a frown: "What's the matter?" ?”

The servant hurriedly cupped his hands solemnly and said: "Urgent military report, the Eastern Turks have breached the four border cities, suspected of hijacking the Western Turks and the pro-envoys, and Princess Cheng disappeared, His Majesty was furious, and urgently ordered all the ministers to enter the palace for discussion."

Xiao Duo hadn't finished listening, his complexion had already darkened, he strode out hastily, and at the same time ordered: "Wash up in the study in the front yard."

After the servant responded, he hurriedly followed Xiao Duo's footsteps.

But inside the room, Huo Changying, who Xiao Duo didn't want to wake up, opened his eyes, staring at the bead curtain that was still shaking slightly. Xiao Duo was afraid of disturbing him, but he happened to have excellent hearing, and the two talked in a low voice in the corridor. Be clear.

Has the conflict between East and West Turks finally erupted?

What kind of role did Dayin play in it, and whether the princess of Jiayan County...was reduced to become a tool for the East Turks to vent their anger, or a bargaining chip for blackmail.

Huo Changying raised his hand to pinch the center of his brows, and it seemed that the back that day with a bright smile flashed before his eyes, and he waved his hands and turned around without hesitation. A cheerful and free woman like Jiayan shouldn't have such a fate, but at this time he was powerless, and could only pray to the county magistrate of Jiayan Can be safe and sound.

The battle between the Great Yin and the Eastern and Western Turks must be fought most likely, there are few strong generals in the North and China, and Xiao Duo will be the commander in chief this time.

Huo Changying was thinking about how to go out with A Duo without being suspected, when suddenly, someone knocked on the door again, this time he was no more careful than before, and the voice was hurried.

He frowned slightly, and asked in a loud voice, "What's the matter?"

There was a pause in the knocking on the door, as if he hadn't expected him to wake up. After a short pause, he hurriedly said: "Miss Chang, the empress has ordered that the girl enter the palace, and the aunts in charge have all arrived in the front hall."

Huo Changying's complexion was serious, his body shrunk quickly with a few clicks, changed his physique, dressed neatly and got up, took a picture in front of the bronze mirror, only to find a few red marks on his neck were exposed, his face became hot, and he turned his head I changed into a piece of clothing that could cover my neck before going out.

When we arrived at the front hall, as expected, it was Ting Yan who was waiting beside the queen.

After saluting, they didn't say much, and they walked out of the mansion quickly. When they reached the gate, there was a carriage waiting there. Huo Changying looked around and saw Xiao Duo's figure. The servant on the side understood, stepped forward and said in a low voice: "My son left early, I guess he's at the gate of the palace by now."

Huo Changying was a little embarrassed, she just nodded hastily, and got into the carriage, but Ting Yan, who followed closely behind, noticed Huo Changying's actions, and doubts flashed in her eyes.

When the sky is about to dawn, there are not many pedestrians and horses on the street. After a while, the carriage arrived in Miyagi, but...

Huo Changying put down the curtain of the car, turned around and asked Tingyan, "Isn't this the way to Zichen Palace?"

If he remembered correctly, this road should lead to the East Palace where the prince lives. Could it be that something happened to the prince?

Hearing the words, he couldn't speak, he just gestured with his hands, but Chang Ying could see the meaning - the crown prince is in danger.

Huo Changying didn't speak anymore at the moment, the carriage drove all the way into the East Palace, no one questioned him, obviously it was informed in advance, and when he arrived at the Hall of Yihe, Changying saw Queen Wang without any surprise.

But after a few days of seeing each other, Queen Wang has lost a lot of weight. Originally, she only wore a little makeup, but today she is wearing heavy makeup, and the corners of her eyes and brows are full of exhaustion that cannot be concealed. It must be that the matter of the crown prince has hit her hard.

After Huo Changying closed her eyes and saluted, the maidservant led her to the inner room.

The East Palace was as lifeless as before, and the air was full of the strong bitterness of traditional Chinese medicine. After what happened last time, there were fewer and fewer people in the East Palace, and only a few sporadic ones were waiting by the couch.

When they got closer, Huo Changying found that the prince was not as bad as the day before, he was still fast asleep, but there was no pain from the day before on his face.

He stretched out his hand to feel his pulse, and the pulse was stable, and the demon in his body seemed to be dormant. Therefore, compared to the haggard look of the queen, the prince's face was a little more bloody. Huo Changying looked carefully and found that the prince's eyes were narrow and long like the emperor's. , only a little bit of the shadow of the queen between the nose and mouth.

However, with such a normal face, he looked a little awkward, but he couldn't tell where it was.

"East Turkic discord has a long history,"

The Queen who was sitting next to the little girl suddenly lost her mind and interrupted Huo Changying's train of thought. Huo Changying felt impolite, and hurriedly lowered his head and closed his eyes, and then he heard the Queen say: "This time, it is a good time to pull them out. Your Majesty, be patient." For a long time, this will definitely not let it go."

Huo Changying didn't know what Queen Wang meant when she mentioned this matter, so she knelt quietly on one side and listened quietly.

Queen Wang glanced at him, and said: "The Great Yin has been in power for a long time, and extravagance prevails in the imperial court, and the hard bones have long been eaten away." She sighed, paused, and looked at Huo Changying, "General Xiao, He is an outlier in the Great Yin Dynasty Hall, what should your majesty do this time the Turks have repeatedly provoked?"

As Queen Wang spoke, her body couldn't help but leaned towards Huo Changying, her elbows resting on the small table in an oppressive gesture.

Huo Changying's heart skipped a beat. He could feel the eyes of the Queen on him, and couldn't help but feel chills running down his spine. He leaned over and said, "Little girl doesn't know."

Queen Wang didn't speak, the slender gilt armor lightly tapped on the wooden table, and suddenly sighed: "Kan'er, his life is hanging by a thread, and the imperial physician in the palace has no way to treat him, only you," she looked at Huo Changying She smiled, "Thanks to Miss Chang, otherwise my son would die."

The queen's voice was slow, but it seemed to be under a heavy pressure. Huo Changying's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and she was horrified, thinking weirdly, could it be that the queen should follow the example of the previous dynasty and rob the wives of the courtiers?

Not to mention that he and A Duo are in love with each other and cannot be separated, just that he is a man, and that his identity as an orphan of the Huo family will be widely involved if it is revealed. In this palace, there is only one way of thinking. The queen will definitely not disregard the overall situation and do the thing that forces the courtiers to rebel.

Before he could sort out his thoughts, a servant girl walked quickly to the Queen's ear from outside. After saying something in a low voice, the Queen's face showed a clear expression, and she waved her hand to make people retreat. back.

She just opened the mouth and said: "The news from the imperial study room, General Xiao is the head coach, and he will set off soon."

Hearing this, Huo Changying's palms clenched tightly, the queen laughed, and regretfully said: "Xiao Duo's child is indeed a rare handsome talent. You will get married next month. Originally, this palace asked His Majesty to officiate for you."

Huo Changying held his breath, and heard the queen say: "It seems that now, the only way to marry you is when General Xiao returns triumphantly." She glanced at the sleeping prince on the bed, and said in a cold voice, "Swords and swords have no eyes on the battlefield. , and the journey is far away, Miss Chang... don't go."

Just after he breathed a sigh of relief, Huo Changying raised his heart again. It's not like he couldn't hear the accentuated tone of the word "girl" in the queen's mouth.

Queen Wang...know what?

Afterwards, it was nothing more than gossip, Queen Wang asked many more questions, and finally let Huo Changying leave.After the people left, Queen Wang ordered the people in the East Palace to wait on them carefully, and then they left the Hall of Yihe together after listening to the words.

Queen Wang declined the chariot, and walked slowly towards Hanguang Hall with the help of the words.

The sky was blue and the sun was high.

The alleys of Zichen Palace are silent, but when you look up, you can only see a line of heaven and earth under the partition of the palace wall.

Queen Wang raised her head and squinted at the sky for a while, then sighed suddenly: "Listen, is it too much for me to do this?" In an instant, her eyebrows and eyes softened, and the aggressive, gentle and loving eyebrows and eyes when she faced Huo Changying just now disappeared. The heart is full of worry.

Shaking her head when she heard the words, Queen Wang frowned, "But I know it, I know him," she said with a choked voice.

The one on the side was startled when she heard the words, and hurriedly stopped the queen from continuing. She looked around and found that there were no other people waiting, so she quickly gestured at the queen.

Empress Wang's complexion changed, and her eyes were complicated, "They... really have such deep feelings?"

Hearing the words, he nodded, remembering that in the carriage this morning, he accidentally saw the marks on Huo Changying's neck, hesitated to speak, and finally just walked slowly on the palace road with the ecstatic king and queen.

At this time, the military camp on the outskirts of Yong'an City.

Although the Shangyuan Festival has passed, there are still sporadic floating lotus lanterns on the Weishui River, and I don’t know whose daughter’s thoughts are entrusted.

The north wind blows the dead branches, and the beautiful woman stands by the river.

After being notified, Xiao Duo hurriedly came out of the barracks, and saw this scene, the Changying was wearing a moon-white wide-sleeved robe today, and now he was wearing a hood, the north wind blew, and the white gauze floated, as if he would emerge in the next moment and go.

His heart tightened as he watched, and hurriedly ran towards Huo Changying.

Huo Changying was staring at the river lantern in a daze, when he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, as soon as Fang turned his head, he was hugged vigorously, Xiao Duo's familiar breath instantly surrounded him, the man buried his head in his neck, breathing heavily, I don't know What to be afraid of.

Huo Changying was stunned, raised his hand and patted Xiao Duo lightly, and said in a warm voice: "I heard, when are you leaving?"

"Tomorrow." The man's voice was muffled.

When he came, he obviously had a thousand words to say, but at this time Huo Changying didn't know what to say, he just let Xiao Duo hold him like this, and the heart that he had been carrying since this morning suddenly returned to its original position.

After a while, the two separated reluctantly.

Huo Changying said: "Originally, I wanted to pretend to be your bodyguard casually and go with you, but today the Queen beat me and said that the prince is seriously ill, I..."

"I know," Xiao Duo interrupted, "the march is hard, and I can't bear to let you go with me." He frowned and said, "You haven't been through the door after all, it's one thing to control the poison for the prince, but don't , don't get too close."

After finishing speaking, Huo Changying looked at the awkward Xiao Duo amusedly, and felt that his A Duo's appearance was much more serious and cute than usual, but only he could see this appearance.

Huo Changying couldn't help being soft in his heart, and wanted to tease him, so he held back his smile and intervened and said lightly: "When did I say that I want to marry you, and I'm the same man as you, why can't I marry you?"

Xiao Duo was aroused by his flirtatious appearance, which seemed to be a smile but not a smile.

Huo Changying still didn't think it was enough, so he leaned closer and said with a smile: "My husband, how could you be wronged, I, uh..." Before he could finish speaking, the man clamped his chin, lowered his head and kissed him vigorously, and all the unfinished words were turned into words. An intimate sob escaped from between the lips and teeth of the two.

Lips and tongues are attached to each other, lingering and sentimental, as if the endless parting melts at this moment.

After a long time, the two parted breathlessly. Xiao Duo leaned against Huo Changying's forehead and asked with a smile, "What is this?" He shook the red thread on his wrist as he said, "It's because your husband didn't work hard enough that you got the time." Distraction, eh?"

The man's hot breath sprayed on his cheeks, and Huo Changying felt guilty for a while. He blushed dryly and laughed twice and said, "It's the red thread. I added some spells to prevent the border people from being enthusiastic, and I lose you again."
