The Great General and His Little Scholars

Liao Mingsi quickly put on his clothes, and when He Qing walked in with heavy steps, Xing'an had just fastened the last buckle of his belt.

"Son has seen his mother." Liao Mingsi hastily kowtowed, "I came back from the banquet yesterday, it was already late, so I didn't bother you. I wanted to go to pay my respects early this morning, but my mother came first."

With a sullen face, He Qing turned his gaze to the bedroom behind Liao Mingsi, the bedroom door was closed tightly uncharacteristically.

He Qing is a lady of every family, the general's wife, decency is the most important thing.Holding back his anger, he walked to the front of the hall and sat down on the chair of the Eight Immortals, looked at Liao Mingsi and said: "I have been away for a year, and since I come back, no matter how late it is, shouldn't I visit my parents first?"

Liao Mingsi bowed his head and said, "It's indeed the son's fault, and made mother worry."

He Qing sighed, and said in a relaxed tone, "Come here, let my mother see if there are any new wounds."

Liao Mingsi obediently went over and knelt down in front of He Qing.He Qing stretched out his hand to stroke Liao Mingsi's face, and said distressedly: "The border town is tough, look at you, you are dark and thin. Now that you are back, let the family make some nourishing food for three meals a day, and give it to you Make up."

"Thank you, mother." Liao Mingsi looked at He Qing coquettishly and said, "My son is strong and strong, so what can I do to make up for it? But mother and father are getting older, and the son is often not around. The tonic prescribed by the imperial physician is Eat on time."

He Qing smiled reassuringly, helped Liao Mingsi to sit down.But his mind was still in Liao Mingsi's bedroom, his eyes kept squinting as he spoke.

Liao Mingsi also knew that even if he ordered it, how many people saw the carriage entering the inner courtyard in the middle of the night last night, it was impossible to keep it secret.

So reckless, he wanted to tell He Qing all about Jiang Tong.

But just as he was about to speak, the bedroom door opened.He Qing looked, but was taken aback.He Qing heard from the servants that Liao Mingsi had brought someone back from the banquet early in the morning, so He Qing thought it was some kind of maid of honor.

Liao Mingsi was in his prime, and he often walked around the palace.He Qing thought that he fell in love with that court lady.Emperor Song Yuanxi had a very good personal relationship with Liao Mingsi, so it is also possible that he secretly promised this court lady to Liao Mingsi.

But now at the door of Liao Mingsi's bedroom, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old man unexpectedly appeared, which shocked He Qing for a moment.

When she looked around, she saw that the man's face was very handsome, with thick eyebrows and starry eyes, a high nose bridge, and red lips.A head of black hair is tied neatly on the top of the head, pinned only by a plain hairpin, and no headscarf is worn.The figure is slightly thin, but has a romantic and elegant charm.

In terms of appearance, he is much better than the two young masters of his family who are among the best in the capital.

He Qing seemed to be a little dazed, but not quite sure, pointing at the man, he said, "Are you...Jiang Tong?!"

Jiang Tong immediately stepped in front of He Qing, knelt down and said with a "plop", "Jiang Tong has seen Madam."

"You are really Jiang Tong!" He Qing hurriedly reached out to help him up, looking up and down at Jiang Tong who was already a head taller than himself: "Really...you have grown so big."

As He Qing spoke, he choked up.Although they sent Jiang Tong away at that time, after all they had been together for several days, He Qing and Liao Shan rescued Jiang Tong again, and sending him away was also a safe solution.

Kuang Jiangtong has been living in a relative's house, and he will mention it in the occasional correspondence.Among them, the feelings do not need words.

Jiang Tong was held by He Qing, also burst into tears, choked up and said: "Over the past ten years, I have always been grateful for the kindness of the elders. Every time I think of it, I am grateful, and I don't know how to repay it. I hope the elders will live a long and healthy life, and one day they can come back to fulfill their filial piety." .”

He Qing also couldn't hold back, hugged Jiang Tong and shed tears for a long time.Liao Mingsi hastily persuaded him, and helped He Qing to sit down.

He Qing held back his tears and asked: "A few days ago, I heard from the general that you passed the Jinshi high school. Because I was afraid of affecting your palace examination, I didn't meet rashly before. I thought you would come home after high school. But why did you go home last night? Did you come back with Ming Si?"

Jiang Tong looked shy and didn't know how to answer, so he peeked at Liao Mingsi.Liao Mingsi gave him a look, comforting him not to panic, and told him about Song Yuanhao coveting Jiangtong, robbing him and drugging him on the way to the General's Mansion.

He Qing came from a noble family and had a strict family education. He was dumbfounded when he heard that Song Yuanhao was so shameless, and said angrily: "King Zhao is relying on the emperor's connivance and can do anything. How dare you make such a loss to a newly promoted Jinshi?" Face, there is no decent thing."

He comforted Jiang Tong again and said, "Now that you go back to the General's Mansion, the General and Ming Si will make decisions for you, so you don't have to be afraid of that immoral thing."

Jiang Tong nodded and looked up at Liao Mingsi: "As long as I'm with brother, I'm not afraid of anything."

Liao Mingsi naturally knew the deep meaning in these words, and his heart was also alive at the moment, and he only hooked Jiang Tong with his eyes.

He Qing didn't pay attention, and said happily: "It was a false alarm. I thought that Ming Si secretly kidnapped some court lady back last night. I didn't dare to let others know. Since it's you, why don't you go together to greet the general. He Don't know anything yet."

He Qing went back to change clothes, Liao Mingsi and Jiang Tong packed up, and then went to Liao Shan's room to say hello.

Things were in a hurry last night, Jiang Tong was drugged, Liao Mingsi drank too much alcohol, everything happened too fast.Now that he was awake, Jiang Tong always felt shy and unbearable, he lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Liao Mingsi more.

Liao Mingsi didn't care, he held Jiang Tong's hand and refused to let go for a moment.

Jiang Tong paid attention to the eyes of the servants in Yifu, blushed and said in a low voice: "Brother, let go of your hand, let people see the rear arrangement."

Liao Mingsi held on even tighter: "I'm not even afraid of Hu Fan's [-] troops, but I'm afraid of organizing? I waited for ten years, and finally saw you again. Do you think I'll let you go?"

He deliberately teased Jiang Tong and said, "Why don't we hold hands when we go to court in the future, what do you think?"

"Don't do it!" Jiang Tong raised his head in a panic, his expression of serious belief was extremely cute, which made Liao Mingsi laugh out loud.He lowered his head again, approached deliberately and said, "You have a really pretty expression now, but if you look at me again, be careful, I can't hold it back."

Jiang Tong pushed him away all at once, and said shyly, "If I'm not in shape, I'll ask for a transfer. I'll be a magistrate somewhere far away, so you won't be able to hold me anymore."

"Then I'll ask you to be a school captain in your county. Our mountains are high and the emperor is far away, so we just live our own lives."

Jiang Tong was happy in his heart, but he covered his mouth and smiled and joked, "Are you willing to take the capital? Are you willing to give up those maids that the emperor wants to reward you? According to Madam, there is a precedent for bringing them back in the middle of the night before."

After hearing this, Liao Mingsi stopped abruptly, turned around and looked at Jiang Tong seriously.

Seeing that Liao Mingsi seemed annoyed, Jiang Tong hurriedly apologized and said with a smile, "It's just a joke, is brother serious?"

Liao Mingsi took a step forward, stretched out his arms to wrap around Jiang Tong's waist, and dragged him within walking distance, with a smug smile on his lips: "Seriously, I really like your jealous appearance. Come on, let me hear it again." listen."

Jiang Tong's face was as red as a tomato, he pushed him away vigorously and said, "This is in the General's Mansion, restrain yourself!"

"Ah...that's right, here..." Liao Mingsi looked around and thought about it; "There are indeed too many people here, and I can't let go. In fact, the emperor rewarded me with a mansion a long time ago, but I No one wants to leave home."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Jiang Tong and said seriously: "Now that you are here, why don't we move to live there, and it will save you from feeling uncomfortable all the time."

Jiang Tong bowed his head and said, "When I saw my brother since I was a child, I decided that I would live and die with him. It's just that my wife and the general have saved my life, and I feel ashamed of them."

"It's not your fault, why should I be ashamed." Liao Mingsi stretched out his hand to gently lift Jiang Tong's chin, and looked deeply at the pair of water eyes that made him fascinated: "You just remember, these ten In the past few years, I haven't had a day as happy as today, as last night, as happy as when I saw you again. This is what you gave and what I want. Understand?"

Jiang Tong's eyes were clouded with mist, and he nodded firmly.Liao Mingsi resisted the urge to hold Jiang Tong in his arms. He knew that there was too much to do for them to be together.The first step to be done now is to protect the person in front of him and prevent him from being caught in the gossip in the capital.

A newly promoted Jinshi has a bright future, Liao Mingsi doesn't want to ruin Jiang Tong's ten years of hard work because of his willfulness.

He smiled and reached out to pat Jiang Tong's shoulder: "Let's go, father and mother are still waiting to say hello."

Jiang Tong pondered: "Is my father still as strong as before? I heard that he went to northern Xinjiang last year to quell the Tatar rebellion."

"Hehe, my father is still the same as ten years ago, leading troops to fight, and doing daily drills by himself."

The two walked towards Liao Shan's yard talking and laughing, but they didn't notice that not far behind, Aunt Zhu was looking at them coldly.

"Hey, who is that? Did our Major General get Mr. Longyang back to raise him?" Aunt Zhu said sharply.

The maid Lamei stretched her neck to watch, and asked puzzledly, "What Lord Longyang?"

Aunt Zhu squinted her eyes: "I didn't see them hooking their shoulders and backs, they looked so affectionate. Tsk tsk, Ming Si's eyes can't wait to grow on that little brother."

Lamei suddenly said: "Oh... Auntie said... Is there going to be a general's husband in the house?"

"Cut, how is it possible." Aunt Zhu curled her lips, her face full of excitement: "Our wife is confident that she comes from a famous family, has great rules, and pays a lot of attention, so how could she allow this kind of thing. Haha, just watch, this General's Mansion , there is going to be a big show."

He frowned and said, "But that little brother looks so familiar? I seem to have seen it somewhere."

At this time, someone shouted from behind: "Mom, what are you doing here? Didn't you say you were going to see your father?"

Aunt Zhu turned her head and saw Liao Mingli approaching, she immediately smiled all over her face and said, "Oh, my lord, aren't you busy with business today?"

"What are you busy with, a low-level official." Liao Mingli muttered: "A few days ago, I received news that there was a vacancy for the Hussars to join the army. He didn't care if I told my father. The other officials' children, With my father's rank, there is no one who is as low as me in the district bureau."

"Your father is busy, maybe he forgot, mother will talk to him when she sees him today." Aunt Zhu looked at Liao Mingli lovingly and said, "If you want to make progress, you have to pay close attention to your marriage. What do you think of the second young lady of Lord Yushi's family?"

"How much help can a censor do? If he climbs up to the eldest princess like the eldest brother, then he will have a serious official career."

Aunt Zhu was taken aback: "What did you say? The eldest princess has taken a fancy to Ming Si?"
