Reborn as the favorite of the cold-faced general

Back at the barracks, the soldiers were still asleep.

Ye Huaiyun also leaned against Chu Tingyun's chest after experiencing life and death in the desert all night, feeling a little drowsy.After getting off the horse, he was exhausted and followed Chu Tingyun into the tent without thinking too much.

He walked to the edge and sat down, and Chu Tingyun took off his boots, socks and clothes very politely.

Ye Huaiyun lay down on the couch and fell asleep, in a daze, suddenly there was another person beside him, who seemed to be still grabbing his quilt.

He babbled twice in his sleep, turned over again, and then... was hugged into a slightly warm embrace.

Ye Huaiyun opened his eyes suddenly, the person holding him was naturally Chu Tingyun, and he was staring at him with peach blossom eyes.

His cheeks were slightly red, he was stunned for a while, and finally he only uttered: "Presumptuous."

"Is this considered presumptuous?" Chu Tingyun smiled, put his palms on the back of his head, and stroked his long hair one after another, "It's still early, go to sleep."

Ye Huaiyun didn't close his eyes, he couldn't sleep.

I don't know why, it's obvious that they shared the same bed in an ordinary bed before, but now they feel a little awkward.Probably...the hurdle in my heart has not been completely overcome.

"I'm not sleepy, I should get up and watch them go to their morning exercises." Ye Huaiyun withdrew from his arms.

But when he stood up, he realized that he was sleeping on the inside.If you want to go out, you have to step over Chu Tingyun's position.

Ye Huaiyun glanced at him, and Chu Tingyun grabbed the ankle just as he lifted his foot, and dragged him back to the bed with all his might.

He fell on the diaphragm bed in a somewhat awkward posture, but before he had time to stand up again, Chu Tingyun pretended to look over and exhaled like blue: "But I'm sleepy, Your Majesty will sleep with me for a while."

Ye Huaiyun couldn't cope, so Chu Tingyun kissed him on the shoulder in a daze.

Eyes drooping a little bit, sinking a little bit, he put his hands around Chu Tingyun's neck, and was about to respond.

"Catch an assassin—"

A loud shout outside the tent disturbed the two of them at the same time.

"It's Xie Lan's voice." Ye Huaiyun's eyes became clear.He quickly stepped over Chu Tingyun's position and got out of bed, put on his clothes, and raised the curtain.

Standing beside him, Chu Tingyun walked out of the tent and looked around.The entire barracks was lit by torches in the dark of dawn, and a group of shadow guards headed by Xie Lan was chasing after a black figure.

That assassin's lightness skills are not bad, even if Xie Lan tried his best, it would be difficult for him to catch up.Seeing this, Chu Tingyun was about to fly forward to help, but Ye Huaiyun raised his hand to block him.

"No need to chase." Ye Huaiyun said.

Chu Tingyun asked, "Why didn't you chase after him?"

Ye Huaiyun raised his hand to summon a shadow guard to ask, and it was just as he had guessed.Tonight, an assassin sneaked into the king's tent, intending to assassinate him.

In the distance, the assassin escaped, and Xie Lan was full of annoyance because he didn't catch him.

Ye Huaiyun pulled Chu Tingyun back into the tent, "What do you think is the probability of an assassin sneaking into the king's tent and successfully assassinating the emperor?"

His own martial arts are superb, and there are countless shadow guards patrolling around him, so there is almost no possibility of success.But if the purpose is to do something else, not necessarily.

People who believe in the king... Chu Tingyun guessed it was poisonous or worms after only a rough thought.

He immediately ordered for Ye Huaiyun, ordering Zhao Chuyang to go to the king's tent and check everything carefully.

"So you let him go back on purpose?" Chu Tingyun stated without rhetorical tone: "So that Ye Huaizhang thinks that his clumsy plan has succeeded and relaxes his vigilance."

"Well." Ye Huaiyun said: "Including the desert of dead souls must also be his handwriting. Since he moves frequently, it means that a war is about to start."

Outside the tent, the voices of soldiers doing morning exercises gradually sounded.

The remaining drowsiness was also blown away by the refreshing morning breeze, but I didn't want to sleep anymore.

Ye Huaiyun sent a team to flatten the Great Wall, defeated the minions of King Chang Xin who were defending the city, and replaced them with his own people.At least we can no longer let the forged weapons flow into the hands of treasoners.

During the rest of the time, Chu Tingyun rectified the soldiers in the camp, while Ye Huaiyun roughly drew the map of last night's stone room in the tent.

This place is too weird, I have to explore again.

In the evening, Ye Huaiyun walked out of the tent.The setting sun shines on his robe, outlining the golden border.

He was about to go to Chu Tingyun and discuss with him his plan to explore the Desert of Dead Souls at night.But he was surprised to find that the soldiers on duty outside the camp were all facing the southwest side and looking into the distance.

Ye Huaiyun also followed their gaze, and in the middle of the sky in the distance, a resplendent and resplendent palace appeared, vaguely indistinct.

With just one glance, Ye Huaiyun could tell that it was his Tai Chi Hall.

Chu Tingyun trotted to his side, "What are you looking at?"

"A mirage." Ye Huaiyun replied.

Chu Tingyun said: "There is a desert in that direction, and there have been several continuous spring rains a few days ago, it is normal for mirages to appear."

Ye Huaiyun nodded, not paying too much attention.He and Chu Tingyun walked casually in the camp, and by the way, they planned to go to the desert of dead souls at night.

Chu Tingyun also had this intention, and the two almost coincided with each other.

Suddenly, there were a few whimpers in my ears.

Ye Huaiyun turned his head and looked to the side. The two soldiers standing in front of the camp were crying?

Originally, it was just one person crying, from a small voice to a loud voice. Later, another person around him also started to cry, which intensified.

Ye Huaiyun looked at the two rough men in surprise, stepped forward and asked, "What are you crying for?"

Seeing them, the two hurriedly raised their hands to wipe away the tears on their faces, and hurriedly knelt down, "The lowly position disturbs His Majesty, the general is great, the lowly position is guilty."

"Tsk." Chu Tingyun felt a little impatient between his brows, "Your Majesty asked why you were crying, don't you understand?"

The two lowered their heads and said timidly: "Returning to Your Majesty and General, I just thought of some past events and didn't intend to disturb Your Majesty."

"Wipe your tears clean." Chu Tingyun said coldly, "Otherwise you will incite the morale of the army and punish them."

It is probably because they have guarded the border for too many years, and it is inevitable that some homesickness cannot be suppressed.Thinking of this, Ye Huaiyun didn't blame her too much.

After walking two more steps, Chu Tingyun suddenly stopped and said solemnly, "That's not right."

"What's wrong?" Ye Huaiyun asked him.

"This mirage." Chu Tingyun said seriously, "No."

They had just walked all the way, and everyone was attracted by the mirage scene, and their eyes were fixed on it, not for a moment.And the faces of these people all showed expressions of pain or sadness, including the two sobbing people.

Some are too exaggerated.

Ye Huaiyun was looking up at the sky. In the warm yellow sunset, the Tai Chi Hall was still reflected.

But this time he took a closer look, the doors and windows of the Taiji Hall were open, and he could just see the scene of the inner hall at a glance.

"Ye Huaiyun" in the mirage took the tea from "Chu Tingyun", and then limply leaned against "Chu Tingyun"'s chest, was picked up by him, and placed on the bed.

The bright yellow bed curtain fell, and Ye Huaiyun saw the bed shaking in the image, as if...

The roots of his ears were stained pink.The picture changed at the right time, "Chu Tingyun" came out of the tent, after getting dressed, he went to the imperial table to study ink and write a pen, wrote an edict, and then stamped it with a jade seal.

Ye Huaiyun immediately realized that this was the night Chu Tingyun left without saying goodbye four years ago.

It came into his eyelids so clearly and directly, his brows furrowed unconsciously, his heart seemed to be grabbed, and it was difficult to breathe.The emotions of being furious and ashamed in the Tai Chi Hall at the beginning were staged again.

Reason told him that this was an illusion and a fake, but he couldn't stop feeling uncomfortable.

The foreground was suddenly blocked by a tall body, and Chu Tingyun pressed him into his arms.

"Huaiyun, it's okay...it's all over..."

"It's all over..."

He made his voice hoarse and gentle, repeating it again and again, Ye Huaiyun's breathing finally gradually calmed down.

Chu Tingyun smoothed the dark cloud between his eyebrows with his fingers, Ye Huaiyun slowly opened his mouth and asked him: "What do you see?"

This is an illusion, and the scene presented is his most painful regret, or the memory he least wants to see.So Ye Huaiyun saw that night four years ago, but what Chu Tingyun saw must be different from him.

"It's nothing." Chu Tingyun patted him on the back, as if unwilling to say.

And Ye Huaiyun raised his head to meet his eyes, the sockets of which were already bloodshot, it was hard to tell whether it was grief or anger.

Ye Huaiyun lifted the hand placed by his side and wrapped it around his back.

This is the first time since the two reunited, he took the initiative to hug him.

"Tingyun..." Ye Huaiyun called his name affectionately, paused, and said in an extremely gentle tone: "Tell me, please? Don't keep your thoughts from me anymore."

Now it was Chu Tingyun who was startled, his voice was as clear as spring breeze turning into rain, like moistening things without crispness.He had waited too long for Ye Huaiyun who was gentle and not like a majestic emperor.

Then he turned his face and leaned close to Ye Huaiyun's ear, and said slowly: "21 years ago, the day Yanbei County was slaughtered."

"Do you know why I was the only one who escaped from the entire Chu family?"

Ye Huaiyun shook his head amid his rhetorical question.

Chu Tingyun continued: "At that time, the gate of the city had long been lost, and the barbarians in the northwest were burning, killing, looting, and robbing the city, especially the Chu family who was the county guard."

When the barbarians saw one, they killed one without batting an eye.Until they saw the young Chu Tingyun...

"Hey, this girl is beautiful and juicy, sweat will definitely like it." A barbarian smiled wretchedly, and stretched out his hand to pinch Chu Tingyun's cheek.

Chu Tingyun glared at him fiercely, shaking his head to avoid the touch of that salty pig's hand.

Manzi laughed even more wildly, "Hahaha, he's still a temper, definitely suits the sweat!"

He was like this, because of his good looks, he was mistaken for a little girl.He was bound by a group of lecherous savages and thrown on the sweat bed.

He watched as the man covered in stench approached little by little, taking off his clothes little by little.Seeing Manzi's eyes shining like a wolf, Chu Tingyun loosened the hemp rope on his wrist, and suddenly attacked him, scratching a scratch on his back with his nails.

There was poison in his nails, and the sweat immediately fell on Chu Tingyun.

"I escaped from the bed of Northwest Khan."

Word by word, he rarely speaks so slowly.Ye Huaiyun suddenly understood why Chu Tingyun was so angry yesterday when those men in black said they looked like female dolls.

This is his disgrace.

Ye Huaiyun covered his eyes with her palm, just like when he hugged her just now, she said: "It's okay...it's all over..."

"I'll be with you."

The last four words were overwhelmed by the sudden sound of the horn.

The two were taken aback at the same time, why did they blow the horn all of a sudden?

An army is coming!
