Great General [Rebirth]

"Don't cry, I don't intend to rely on you, I will scare you." Guo Xiangye advised.

When the young man heard his old voice, he burst into tears and became even happier.

Since his fifth son seized power, Guo Xiangye has been disarmed and returned to the fields and retired to the mountains. He usually dresses casually, but today he is out fishing. He is wearing cotton and linen shorts with his trouser legs rolled up. Walking on the street, he looks like an ordinary man. The little old man can no longer be ordinary.He thought that this young man would not come to blackmail him, crying so sadly, he must have encountered some difficulties.

"Okay, okay, let's go there and sit and talk, sit and talk."

Judging by the situation, the old man can't just walk away.If you want to find a place to talk, you can't sit in the middle of the road, because there are people coming and going.In front is the Wangjiang Tower. The Prime Minister of the State took the young man and walked straight in.

The young men in Wangjiang Tower are all good people who listen to all directions and see all directions. When they saw an old man leading a young man striding in, the young man was still crying. Although he was not dressed luxuriously, the old man had a pair of The young man with black eyes and sharp eyes is rare and beautiful, and the two of them carry a certain aura invisibly, and they are not ordinary people at first glance.

A young servant walked up without being humble, and before he could speak, the old man asked directly, "Is it still free to go up to Xiantai?"

"I have an appointment to go to Xiantai, guest, please order somewhere else." The boy paused, he was new here, and he didn't recognize the old man in front of him.Nadengxiantai is the most famous place in Wangjiang Tower, and the princes and ministers in Beijing have to line up to make an appointment.

The Prime Minister of the State nodded, "Then come to a private room." The young man led the people all the way upstairs, and turned a corner, "Please come inside."

The Prime Minister of the State placed Xiaonian in the seat, and ordered several dishes, except for the most famous ones in Wangjiang Tower, there were also some special dishes.After the little servant retreated, the Prime Minister of the State turned around, the young man stopped crying, and silently wiped his tears with his head down.The Prime Minister is now graying, and the official airs and violent temper of the early years have been worn down by the years. The young man is not as excited as before, but his mood has not calmed down.Xiangye didn't ask him anything.The old and the young sat like this until the servant brought some pre-dinner snacks, candied pastries, and peanuts. At this time, the young man who had been keeping his head buried raised his head and squeezed a candied fruit into his mouth.

"Is it delicious?" Xiang Ye asked with a smile.

Xiaonian nodded, tears gradually stopped.

"Like this?" Xiangye pushed the jar containing candied fruit towards the young man, who twirled two more and ate it. Xiangye smiled and said, "You children like to eat this. My old man can't do it." , the teeth are not good, the stomach is not good, this kind of sweet and greasy can't be digested."

The young man raised his head and looked at the old man with silver frost on his temples, his cheeks still bulging, and then wept again.

Xiangye was a little puzzled, he wanted to change the subject, talk about something that would not make him sad, but he cried again.

Fortunately, the dishes came up one after another, one after another, and the table was full in a short while.The young man lowered his head and wiped away his tears. Xiang Ye greeted with a smile: "Are you hungry? Try it quickly, the food here is pretty good. For example, this house-warming dish, and this emerald phoenix, pearl Sai Xue, are all famous dishes here. "

The young man stared at the dishes on the table in a daze for a while, and finally took a piece of braised sea bass a little far away in the bowl, and began to eat carefully.

"You like to eat this too." Xiang Ye looked at the young man in silence for a moment, then said with a sigh.The young man didn't notice the sudden desolation in the old man's words. He was a little impatient and unruly when he was eating, which reminded Xiangye of his own young son, who beat him up a lot for the etiquette at the dinner table.

Master Xiang endured it, and finally persuaded gently: "Don't worry about eating fish, eat slowly. You should drink some soup first, and then eat some vegetables to fill your stomach..."

The young man paused, put down the fish on the chopsticks, scooped up a bowl of soup and handed it to Xiang Ye with both hands. Eat green vegetables.

Mr. Xiang nodded in relief. His little devil was not so obedient. Whenever he said he was running and jumping to find his fifth brother, Mr. Xiang was often angry and beat him up when he picked it up.But now, Master Xiang sighed faintly, his dry eyes were a little wet.

Speaking of which, he was nearly 40 years old when he got that child. How can he not feel pain when he is old.His first eight children are all educated and taken care of by rich mothers, so he doesn't need to worry about it.The child's mother was Lushui husband and wife back then, a foreign dancer wandering in the Central Plains, not to mention her humble status, she died prematurely.For this old man, the prime minister of the country can be said to be both a father and a mother.It may be that he used the wrong method and always beat and scolded harshly. The child never got close to him one day when he was alive.Recently getting older, I always think of those unruly eyes and angry demeanor, which are so similar to myself when I was young.That kid was always causing trouble, and thinking about it now, it was actually just a way to get his attention.He was too busy at that time and always ignored him.

It was dark and early in late autumn, and after a meal, the young man was eating all the food. The Prime Minister of the State was a little surprised that the child ate up all the dishes.It was getting late, and seeing that the young man had regained his composure, the Prime Minister of the State smiled, and the old and the young began to exchange greetings.

"Thank you, Mr. Xiang, for your hospitality." Zhao Yongzhou said in a low voice, his voice was a little hoarse, and his eyes were still red.

"You recognize the old man?" The Prime Minister of the State was surprised.

"Hundreds of years pass on a great cause, and half a lifetime of Jiazi changes a child's face. I have heard for a long time that the Prime Minister is trying his best to rule the old man, and the officials admire him very much. He intends to visit, but because of his low status, he is not enough to step into the Prime Minister's house. It is heaven to see the Prime Minister today. Have pity."

The self-proclaimed 'Xiaguan' seems to be a newcomer to the court.Guo Xiangye stroked his beard and thought about the news he had heard recently, and compared it with the characteristics of the young man in front of him, he probably knew who he was.Suddenly smiled: "After a long time, I thought it was a child who got lost from some family. It turned out to be a young general named 'General Baihu'. I was so confused. The future generations are awesome, awesome."

Zhao Yongzhou also laughed embarrassedly, remembering his embarrassment before, rubbed his nose.This little action of his fell into the eyes of the Prime Minister, making the old man narrow his eyes slightly.

Sighing suddenly, "The old man has recently been influenced by the visiting abbot of Tianyi Temple, Master Kongyu, and he has become a bit of a believer in ghosts and gods. He is really old, old."

Zhao Yongzhou didn't grasp the point of his words, he stared round and asked loudly: "Master Kongyu? Is it that old man who is over a hundred years old?"

"You recognize Kong Yu?" Guo Xiangye was amused by his appearance, and thought to himself that he was a child after all, so he was taken aback.

"I know the beginning and the end." Zhao Yongzhou calmed down, "To be honest, Xiaguan was rescued by a Buddhist temple when he was young... After all, Abbot Vacant is my ancestor. I have been in the capital these days, and I have never had time to go there. To see him."

Seeing his mournful expression, the Prime Minister of the State tactfully did not ask further questions, and said with a smile: "That's just right, I will go to Tianyi Temple on the ninth day of next month to fulfill my vows, and the young general is interested in going with me?"

"If that's the case, I'm very happy." Zhao Yongzhou said hastily.

Zhao Yongzhou thought it was amazing. He used to get along with the Prime Minister of the State, and he was always at war with each other.In the end, both sides are often hurt. He was beaten all over his body, and the Prime Minister of the country was furious.He never thought that one day he would use this identity to sit with the Prime Minister of the State, chatting about the family affairs in detail.Like an old friend you haven't seen for a long time.

When the two of them said this, it was Haishi in the blink of an eye.Originally, it was said that the Prime Minister of the country was treating guests, but he didn't bring any silver with him.Zhao Yongzhou put together all the money he had on his body, but it was not enough for one-third of the meal cost of Wangjianglou.Zhao Yongzhou was planning to take out the jade pendant that Buran had given him around his waist, but the Prime Minister of the State stopped him with a smile and asked the boy to invite the shopkeeper of Wangjianglou.When the shopkeeper saw him, he quickly bowed his head and smiled apologetically, saying that the meal was free, and that was the end of the calculation.

It was already late at night when Zhao Yongzhou helped Guo Xiangye to the main road.But the streets in the capital are still very lively, Zhao Yongzhou sent the old man all the way to the door of Xiangfu, and he turned back when he saw the people inside coming out to pick him up.

The capital city is an eventful place. That night, the news that the Prime Minister of the State had brought a beautiful young man to Wangjiang Tower for a meal at Wangjiang Tower spread like wildfire at the tea party among princes, dukes and ministers.When the Prime Minister of the country returned to the mansion, he was greeted by the visiting gazes of Chi Guoguo who were waiting for him. The Lord Xiang had never seen anything before, he stroked his beard indifferently, and told his son: "Third brother, remember to go and see him tomorrow!" Jianglou paid for the meal."

Zhao Yongxiu was sitting in the study, facing several brochures about Shanxi, tapping the table with his right index finger, meditating.Liang Wandeng was tired of being here at night and was driven back by him.Liang Wandeng walked out of the door reluctantly, muttering: "Master has taken a fancy to that little boy, don't think he can't see it."

Zhao Yongxiu didn't say anything, just sneered.Liang Wandeng was so frightened that he rubbed the soles of his feet with oil and ran away by himself.

Now the fifth child of the Zhao family was thinking deeply in the middle of the night, and suddenly became restless. For some reason, Bai Wu, a young man, was always around him today.In just one day, there were news of this young man in all directions.That's all for the eldest brother's year-end friendship, and tonight I went to Wangjiang Tower for dinner with the old man.This made Zhao Yongxiu feel a little uneasy. The eldest brother said that Bai Wu was a strange person, but he felt that this person was very dangerous.

Zhao Yongxiu has a strong intuition that the great cause he has planned for 17 years may be ruined by this person in the end.

This sudden thought made Zhao Yongxiu break out in a cold sweat. There was no reason, but it was very strong.

He also said that it was already midnight when Zhao Yongzhou returned to the White Mansion.After taking a shower, I lay down and rested.The day's running, fatigue and grievances all dissipated heavily in sleep.As soon as he slept until daylight, he got up and had breakfast to report to the Imperial Army.When meeting 'uncle' Bai Xianjie, he was scolded at first.

"What do you think your position is? First you ran to Zhao Yongxiu to ask for leave, and then you got involved with the Prime Minister of the country. You think you are a butterfly, and you don't think you are famous enough, so you fly around?" Bai Xianjie said The words were full of malice, on the surface they were kind and filial, but who would have known that the two of them got along like this behind the scenes.

Zhao Yongzhou frowned, he had no intention of arguing with this 'uncle'.I was scolded, but I still didn't get the leave.Zhao Yongzhou had no choice but to go to Chenwang's mansion for a walk.Chen Wang listened to the reasons he explained, and readily agreed.

"You can go by water, it's faster, and you can go back and forth for half a month at most. You know, things will be more complicated after September, and I hope you can be by my side at that time." Rong You said.

"Thank you, Your Highness. I must go and return quickly." Zhao Yongzhou took the order, and immediately returned to the White Mansion, packing up his things and planning to leave the next day.

Ruan Yan stood at the door, looking at the man who was packing his luggage inside, murmured for a long time, and finally summoned up the courage to ask: "Little General, the journey is far away, and we are afraid that wolves, tigers and leopards will block the way, can you bring your slaves?"

Zhao Yongzhou turned his head and looked at the expecting woman at the door, he couldn't help laughing and said: "You are talking about wolves, tigers and leopards, how can I take you to a girl's house?"

"But what my lord told me..." Ruan Yan accidentally said.

Zhao Yongzhou, who was folding clothes, paused and was silent for a moment, then he suddenly asked: "Ruan Yan, you have been by his side for a long time, do you know what kind of relationship he has with the little prince?"

Ruan Yan blinked and smiled: "What's the relationship? Your lord is the prince and the tutor. The little general has been in a hurry since last night. Could it be because of jealousy?"

She changed the subject naturally.Zhao Yongzhou was not her opponent, so he blushed slightly.Ruan Yan came in to help him pack his things, while looking at his handsome blushing face, the smile on the corner of his mouth could not be suppressed.

"To tell you the truth, I have been following my lord for more than ten years, and I have never seen him care so much about someone like you, little general. You see, he has thought about everything for you. How amazing is your lord? Character, he can do this to you, which shows your status in his heart."

"What are you talking about in front of me?" Zhao Yongzhou glared at her, and if she didn't stop her, what she said would become more and more outrageous.

"That's not why you came back in a hurry yesterday and ignored people. I think you are angry, and it has something to do with the adults." Ruan Yan said this, and said in her heart: It doesn't matter anymore.Feng Buran accompanied the little prince to Xiangshan to see the red leaves yesterday, but he didn't come back after seeing it.

The lord has always been an unpredictable person. She used to think that the lord always liked the little prince, but after Bai Wu appeared, she felt that the lord really cared about Bai Wu.Which one it was, she could not guess for sure.

But since Feng Buran sent her to serve this one, she had to make this child happy.On the surface, Zhao Yongzhou was coaxed by her, talking and laughing, but in fact he was bitter in his heart, which is not enough for outsiders to understand.

After tidying up everything, Ruan Yan ordered Qiao'er in Fuzhong to take care of the housekeepers, then took care of Zhao Yongzhou to rest, and planned to leave at [-] o'clock the next morning.In the middle of the night, a carriage rumbling outside the yard stopped at the gate of Baifu.The attendants are all awakened people, and they will wake up at the slightest sign of disturbance.Qiao'er touched the hidden weapon hidden in her sleeve, and signaled the servant to check it out.

Ruan Yan just went to the master bedroom to make sure that Zhao Yongzhou is safe and well, but they have to get up every night to check.As soon as she came out, she saw Qiao'er running in happily: "My lord is here!"

"Shh." Ruan Yan signaled her to keep her voice down so as not to wake up the people inside. The torches were brightly lit in the yard, and Feng Buran entered the house with a chill in his body.

Qiao'er skipped over to take off her clothes, and Ruan Yan went to order her servants to prepare hot water.

"Where's the person?" Feng Buran asked in a low voice.

"It's asleep inside." Ruan Xiao replied in a low voice.

Qiao'er knelt down and handed over a pair of soft cloth shoes, Feng Buran changed out the boots that were stained with mud, walked to the window and took a look inside.The young man's body was lying flat, his head slightly turned to this side, and he seemed to be sleeping well.

Feng Buran breathed a sigh of relief, but his action was seen by the sharp-eyed servants.

Ruan Yan smiled but said nothing, feeling the joy of betting on a treasure in his heart.Qiao'er smiled wickedly, and leaned over: "My lord, you're back from a long journey, and you don't want to go back to the mansion, what are you doing here in our small place?"

Feng Buran glanced at her, his eyes were not as cold as before, and he could fall asleep laughing at this Qiaoer for half a month.

"As long as you talk too much, don't hurry up and prepare things for adults to take a bath." Ruan Yan said.

By the time Feng Buran finished taking a bath, it was already midnight.Hearing from Ruan Yan's explanation that he would be on his way early in the morning, the trip lasted for more than half a month, Feng Buran endured it and endured it, and in the end he only slept on the bunk in the outhouse.Qiao'er felt distressed when she saw it, so she kept urging her to go in, and she was dragged away by Ruan Yan.

Not long after sleeping, the sound of horseshoes sounded outside again.It is said that there was a rebellion in Shanxi, and several military ministers were asked to enter the palace overnight to face the saint.Feng Buran got up in the dark, Ruan Yan brought a new court dress to change for him, Feng Buran opened his arms with his eyes closed, and let the maids dress him.Ruan Yan was a little surprised to see that the originally stern and resolute face showed a few traces of fatigue.

For so many years in Fengfu, she has never seen Feng Buran show any obvious emotions, he always comes and goes straight like a sharp weapon.Except for the occasional illness, it was even less human then.However, after Feng Buran came back from Julan this time, something was different.At first, Ruan Yan thought it was because the war was too cruel, which made Feng Buran more or less sympathetic.

But now Feng Buran would actually show burnout, this most normal human nature appeared in him, it was enough to show that Feng Buran had finally become like a living person.Ruan Yan was shocked by this huge change.With hindsight, she suddenly felt that this time it wasn't just a matter of betting on the treasure, this Bai Wu might very well become Feng Buran's life gate.

It is very dangerous for a cold-blooded and ruthless killing weapon to suddenly have a weakness.Feng Buran's weakness is exposed in broad daylight, anyone can take advantage of it, anyone can covet it.With so many enemies, will Bai Wu have a peaceful life?

Before going out, Feng Buran went down two steps, then stopped suddenly, turned around and looked inside the house.Looking back at these three steps, Ruan Yan's heart was almost broken. She stepped forward and said softly: "My lord, don't worry, this slave will escort the good little general, and bring him back safe and sound in half a month. The slave will bring him back With carrier pigeons, one day and night, let you know the situation of the little general at any time."

Feng Buran moved her lips, her black eyes were deep, and there was a faint light floating under the stars.In the end, without saying anything, he turned around and left the White Mansion.

Bai Wu said that he is not a child.If you overprotect yourself, it will only make him more rebellious.Thinking of that childish words, Feng Buran smiled wryly.

It is said that you have to stand on the opposite side of him to grow up...
