Great General [Rebirth]

Chapter 4 Just Die Like This

"Why doesn't this child cry?"

"Mom, it's better if you don't cry. The fourth sister was so loud that my head hurt, and I was almost thrown out by my father. This is so good, I don't cry or make trouble."

"Don't mention that dead ghost. I'll take the child to the next village to see a doctor to see if there is any illness. You remember to close the door, and don't open the door for your father when he comes back."

The woman went out with the baby in her arms.It was already dark at this time, and she had been busy all day in the field, and she was free at night.Bai Village is far away from the town, but there is a doctor who treats donkeys in the next village.

"It's okay." The donkey doctor lifted the baby under the lamp, stripped off his pants and beat him a few times, making the baby cry loudly. "It's just a little crazy, just hit it a few more times at ordinary times."

The woman thanked her a thousand times and rushed home with the child in her arms.When I walked a long way, I saw the door of the house wide open, and I ran back, but the two daughters had disappeared.The little girl lay on the ground crying.Holding the baby in her arms, the woman ran over to pick up the little girl, "Fourth sister, what's the matter?"

The fourth sister twitched while weeping, "Father...Dad sold them..."

"What..." The woman sat slumped on the ground as if struck by five thunders.At night, after coaxing the two children to sleep, they sat on the side and cried all night.The next day, I held one in my left hand, tied the other in my back, and went to work in the field.

When the sweat was dripping, it seemed to hear the child on the back sigh.She only regarded it as a servant, and still buried herself in her work.

Under the scorching sun, Zhao Yongzhou lowered his eyes halfway, and for the first time in his two lives, he understood what it was like to be without love.

I don't know which year it is now, and where it is.

Back in the day, Prince Zhao was the emperor's uncle, rich and powerful, and his daughter was known all over the world to even marry her.Princes, nobles, civil officials and military generals all came to join in, bustling and bustling, very lively.

Hanlin is the first, and the national scholars are unparalleled.This is the compliment given by the current emperor Laoer to Feng Buran.Others don't know, but Zhao Yongzhou is very aware of the scene at that time, because he was also there.Among the top three in the imperial examination, Feng Buran took the first place, and the old emperor personally received him, smiling from ear to ear.Said: "Predecessors have praised Uncle Pei, saying that it is like a jade mountain ascending, and the light shines on people. Now I see Aiqing, and I know who the jade is." , there is no other in the world!"

"What a Lang Yan, unique and incomparable!" The emperor laughed loudly.Shengen honored and favored him, and ordered Buran to be a Hanlin official, and he took office immediately.As soon as the news came out, Feng Buran's name resounded all over the streets.It's not an exaggeration at all to make the boudoirs in the capital think about it day and night, and the neighbor's daughter peeks at the wall.

...Speaking of which, Feng Buran should be regarded as Zhao Yongzhou's teacher... right?

Teacher...

"Hmph." Zhao Yongzhou sneered, turned around and looked at the grand and imposing gate of Xiangguo Mansion in his house, somehow he didn't like it.He simply turned his head, stomped his feet and walked towards Jinhong Pavilion.He didn't know that after he left, Feng Buran, who came on horseback, stopped at the gate of King Zhao's Mansion, but his eyes looked over, looking at the empty Xiangguo Mansion, with some unclear emotions in his eyes.

Wan Qingcheng, the head of Jinhong Pavilion, was ill that day and could not receive guests.Zhao Yongzhou made a big fuss in Jinhong Pavilion, and he didn't leave cursing until the old bustard wailed and brought up a jar of old daughter's incense.

"What the hell!" the old bustard spat, and ordered the servant to close the gate. "Wan Xingshou is not feeling well today, and there will be troublemakers like this again. Let's take a rest in the pavilion! Close the door!"

Zhao Yongzhou came to sit under the old tree by the river, picked up the wine jar, slapped the seal, and drank while holding it.All the bullshit love and love, get the hell out of my way!How can a man suffer without a wife, and where is there no grass in the world?Today, he wants to get drunk to relieve his worries.Although he also knew in his heart that there was no Feng Buran in this world anymore.

It was getting dark, and there were a few lotus-shaped water lanterns floating on the river. Zhao Yongzhou squinted his eyes, and then he remembered that today is July [-], just after July and a half. Came here along the river.

"Oh, I don't know if all those ghosts have returned to the underworld? Young master, I will lie down at home on July and a half. I didn't come to burn paper and incense for you. Why don't I come and ask young master for something?" Zhao Yongzhou stood up with a smile. Went to the river, stretched his waist, yawned, tears slipped from the corners of his smiling eyes.

"Hey." Zhao Yongzhou turned around, stretched out his index finger to wipe the corner of his eyes, and still had a heartless smile on his face.It's just that he didn't expect the moss by the river to be so thick, his foot slipped, and Zhao Yongzhou was about to fall, so he leaned back hard.

As soon as I breathed a sigh of relief, I suddenly felt a chill in my back and immediately raised my throat, it's terrible!

The moment Zhao Yongzhou fell into the water, he felt like he had fallen into a icy hell, and all the cold air in the world penetrated into his body at that moment, wrapping him tightly.The icy water soaking his brain made him sober for a short while, he struggled hard and thrashed desperately.To be honest, Zhao Yongzhou's water skills are not bad, although he is a dude, he is good at both civil and military riding and shooting from a famous family, otherwise how could he get into the Imperial Academy?But at this moment, he was like a newborn baby, trying to wave his hands and feet but couldn't use any strength.Damn it, is it true that there is something wrong with it?Zhao Yongzhou was shocked.

calm!calm!

Zhao Yongzhou reminded himself in his heart that cold water kept pouring in from his panting mouth. Zhao Yongzhou closed his mouth and wanted to calm down first, and slowly, bit by bit, feel the pain in his legs and hands. Where……

"Huh!—" Zhao Yongzhou crawled out of the water, panting heavily, and landed on the shore with weak legs and feet.His throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he coughed hard a few times.Looking back, the surface of the river where he was thumping just now was still rippling and rippling, as if something was about to come out.

Zhao Yongzhou quickly turned around and ran towards the city gate without looking back.He felt that his heart was falling, and he couldn't feel it. He was a little afraid, but he didn't know what he was afraid of.He was so dazed in his mind that he didn't even notice that he had kicked the wine jar, and he disappeared like a gust of wind.

The wine jar was still under the old tree beside the moat, only shaking slightly.

On the seventh day, a male corpse floated up on the moat. He was dressed in white clothes, his eyes were slightly open, his face was smiling, and his expression was upright and serene.

After inspection, the man's body was 17 years old, and he committed suicide by throwing himself into a river.And the clothes are extraordinary, the inner single clothes are purple, in the capital purple is exclusive to princes and princes, the guards patrolling the river were shocked, and hurriedly presented the report.When the emperor heard about it, he immediately ordered the eunuch to inspect the heirs in the harem, and asked all the brothers and elders to pay attention to the children at home.When the Prime Minister saw the single clothes and heard the inspector describe the appearance and age of the male body, his face immediately turned pale.I rushed to the moat in a hurry, and I didn't even have time to put on clothes, hats and shoes.

He was still far away when he heard the wailing of the nanny in his house, and the Prime Minister of the State came closer with his heart in his arms, and fainted on the spot.Everyone panicked and heard another scream.Well, another fainted.This person is none other than Princess Jinghe who just got engaged to a Hanlin scholar.

He also said that Zhao Yongzhou wandered here and there for a few days, and he would sleep at the foot of the city wall and be woken up by the noise.He rubbed his eyes and saw many people surrounded by the moat, and he didn't know what they were looking at, as if someone was crying.Zhao Yongzhou originally wanted to go there, but he couldn't move his feet no matter what.What is he afraid of?

While hesitating, the fortune teller who set up a stall outside the city gate spoke up, singing out of tune sentences: yellow plums never fall, green plums fall, white-haired people send black-haired people, poor boy is 17 years old, and he died in his prime.

Zhao Yongzhou looked at the fortune teller, as if he was being pulled by a thread, he walked past in a daze.But suddenly he saw his family's Prime Minister running past him in a flustered manner and walking in embarrassment, towards the moat.In Zhao Yongzhou's eyes, the Prime Minister of the Country has always been a majestic existence. How has this appearance ever appeared?Zhao Yongzhou was even more frightened.

The fortune teller sang again: Some people are just getting married, and some people are cold in the river.The door of life and death can't be crossed, floating six lives can't sink.

Somehow, listening to the libretto, Zhao Yongzhou felt a prickling pain in his heart.

He raised his head, and saw Yurong supporting Jing and Huarong, walking in a panic, while Feng Buran stopped at the gate of the city, he couldn't understand what was in the black eyes.

'The mechanism is too clever to calculate, and it is unclear what is true and what is not; '

The fortune teller continued to sing, crying and howling, but Zhao Yongzhou had no time to listen to it.

He stood there in a daze, as if he understood something, but he refused to believe it.Guo Xiangye and Jing ran past with them one after another, but they didn't see him.He stood in front of Feng Buran, but Feng Buran's eyes looked at the river through him.

"Young master... my poor young master... why did you leave the nanny behind? How will you live after you let the old man live, my darling..." That was the cry of the nanny.Zhao Yongzhou followed the voice, he wanted to go over to comfort the nanny, but he couldn't move anyhow.The Prime Minister of the State fainted, and the crowd moved out of the way.

It turned out that what was about to float up in the water was his corpse...

Zhao Yongzhou seemed to be unsteady and took two steps back, shaking his head in a daze, he couldn't accept this fact.

Is he... dead? ...

Feng Buran walked over step by step.At that moment, Zhao Yongzhou took a deep breath and opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

He watched Feng Buran pass through his body, completely taking away his last thought.

It turned out that he had really become a ghost.

"You! It's all you!" The nanny rushed forward, grabbed Feng Buran and Jinghe, her eyes were bloodshot, and she was as terrifying as a yaksha: "I curse you! I want to curse you!"

"Nurse, don't be like this!" Yurong pushed her away, "The death of the young master has nothing to do with my princess and horse!"

"Then whose business is it?! Who killed my son?! Tell me!"

"Yes!...It's him...he himself..." Yurong couldn't help trembling as she spoke, her big eyes were full of tears: "It's him who is stupid...who told him to be so stupid... "

The prime minister of the country was in tears, but he had no choice but to order his servants to carry the body of his youngest son back.The originally majestic figure suddenly withered a lot.

But Zhao Wuye, who was far away in Huainan and was busy with the plague, didn't know about it at this time.

Zhao Yongzhou knelt on the ground and wept uncontrollably.I'm sorry, nanny.I'm sorry, Prime Minister.Yong Zhou has embarrassed you guys... Yong Zhou didn't commit suicide, Yong Zhou wasn't so unpromising, Yong Zhou was... his foot slipped and fell.Although this seems to be more unpromising, well, Zhao Yongzhou cried even more while thinking about it.

"Why are you crying? Don't hurry up and report to the Palace of the King of Hell, or you won't be able to cross the Naihe Bridge any later!" A voice suddenly rang in my ears.Zhao Yong woke up like a dream and looked up at the fortune teller who was speaking.

"Well, what will happen if you can't cross the Naihe Bridge?" He cried so much, he was only 17 years old after all.

The fortune teller smiled, "If you can't pass the Naihe Bridge, you won't be able to reincarnate. You can only be a wandering ghost. You have stayed in the world for seven days, and now the grievances are over. The Naihe Bridge only waits until the seventh day. Hurry up and report?"

Is the grievance over? Zhao Yongzhou turned his head to look, Jinghe and Yurong were weeping, and Feng Buran was standing on the bank of the moat.His figure is tall and dignified, and the wind flapped his clothes, flirty and bleak.

In the blink of an eye, it seems that the maple forest is majestic and the lotus is not stained.A wine jar floated over from the river, Feng Buran bent over to lift it up, sniffed it with the tip of his nose, paused for a while, then raised his head and drank it.

"Hmph." Zhao Yongzhou smiled.That's fine, you've accepted my appointment, I'll let you go, and I won't pester you anymore.

If you die, you will die. People always die.Zhao Yongzhou persuaded himself to accept the facts and live this life with peace of mind.He was too panicked when he got up from the river. Now that he thought about it, if he had turned his head back then, he might have seen his dead body floating up from the water.

Now he is reborn in this family, and he will be ten years old in the blink of an eye.The family is destitute, and what is more miserable than orphans and widowed mothers is that the father is a gambler and has sold all the previous four sisters.

Throwing the ox on the bank at will, Zhao Yongzhou sat down beside the mill pan, frowning and thinking.How can I live in this life?He and the country scholar are unparalleled in seal, and may never see each other again.Don't talk about this, even if he wants to get ahead, it will be even more difficult in this family.
