The General Said She Didn’t Take a Wife

Lin Aoxue brought Yunyan back to Yong'an. Yunyan already knew the situation in Yong'an Town, but when they saw each other, she still felt extremely sad.

The news of Lin Aoxue's return with a hundred light cavalry reached Yang Jin's ears. His tense face finally loosened a little. After a helpless sigh, he asked the guards to appease the frightened doctors and let them take a look at the injured town in the town. civil.

Yongan Town is no longer able to live in. The two or three hundred people who survived are basically separated from their wives and children, their families were destroyed, and the whole family escaped the disaster. Very few.

During the time that Lin Aoxue led the troops out to save people, Yang Jin ordered the army to take the bodies of the townspeople. The townspeople who survived cried hoarsely.

The soldiers gathered all the dead people in Yong'an Town, a total of more than 1,300 corpses. These dead people were just the most ordinary people. The barbarian's brutal and inhumane practices aroused deep hatred in the hearts of everyone.

Lin Aoxue clenched the handle of the gun tightly. She saw the guard who stopped them in front of the town gate that day and prevented the wounded from entering Yongan. He had two machetes stuck in his body, and he could not rest his eyes, but his hand was tightly clutching a corner of his shirt. , Lin Aoxue recognized that it was the leather of the barbarian's clothes.

Although this person is not likable, but in front of the righteousness of the family, he showed rare fearlessness and bravery. He died to protect Yongan Town. He is a person worthy of respect.

Yang Jin's face was ashen, and this kind of tragic situation was like **** on earth. He was silent for a long time before he let everyone back with red eyes. In order to prevent the corpse from rotting and bringing more serious plague, he endured heavy pressure and heartache and ordered a fire. these corpses.

The living townspeople wept loudly, refusing to leave the bodies of their loved ones, and soldiers, trying to keep calm, braced them, threw them aside, and covered their ears and eyes, despite the punches and feet they were trying to beat on their faces. .

The fire ignited, like every time the battlefield was cleaned up, the sad and mournful mood was when saying goodbye to those dead comrades in arms, but there was more indescribable grief and anger. The process is long and cruel, it seems like there is no end, and it is desolate for no reason.

As soldiers in the north, they only have to go into the battlefield again and again, watering this thick land with their own blood and the blood of the enemy, looking forward to the day when they can bloom beautiful flowers in the warm sunshine.

No one left until the fire burned out and the sky turned from blue to grey.

When the pattering rain fell from the sky, Yang Jin suddenly broke away and knelt on the ground with a plop. The cold rain fell on his shoulders and bent his spine, making him look several years old. age.

The cries of the townspeople gradually stopped, and Yang Jin rubbed his eyes hard. Tears were mixed with the rain, and soon disappeared again.

He stumbled to his feet. Yongan had nowhere to hide from the rain. He asked the guards to **** the surviving townspeople to Poyan to settle down. When the group left, the wind was bleak and whimpering, as if the clouds in Yongan were also howling. cry.

Yunyan also followed in the team, Lin Aoxue took off the leather armor on the outside of his clothes and put it on Yunyan's head to protect her from the rain, Yunyan raised her eyes and smiled at her, not rejecting her kindness, but asked her again:

"It's good if you're injured. It's raining again, and you might catch a cold when you go back."

An autumn rain and a cold, the sky is getting colder and colder, such rain falls on the body, with a deep chill, it will erode the human body.

Lin Aoxue frowned, letting the rain flow down her cheeks, and replied calmly:

"It's okay, we've never seen any kind of ghost weather when we're marching outside. It's not bad for the rain."

Yunyan tilted her head thoughtfully, thinking that she would cook some **** soup for Lin Aoxue to go back to the cold.

Lu Sheng led a few soldiers under Lin Aoxue to retreat farther away. The atmosphere in the team was dull, everyone's heart was heavy, they were sensible, and no one made jokes at this time.

They walked very fast. They had just experienced a disaster, and the townspeople who could not support them were driven by the soldiers on their backs. Shortly after leaving Yong'an, the rain gradually stopped, and after another half hour, they finally arrived at Poyan.

The team stayed in Poyan to rest, and Yang Jin personally went to settle the refugees from Yong'an. They stayed in Poyan for five days, and many soldiers and refugees who were soaked in the rain got cold. Fortunately, Yunyan had expected, The medicine was prescribed early, and Lin Aoxue went to report to Yang Jin, and the medicine was distributed, and the disease was quickly suppressed.

After five days, the situation in Poyan finally stabilized. Yang Jin left 30,000 soldiers and horses to continue to garrison in Poyan, while he led the remaining 20,000 people to return to Xingbeiguan, and discussed with Beichenlong about this time. The situation of the war, and the reasons for the sudden occurrence of the war.

This time the barbarians attacked Poyan too suddenly, and they didn't reveal at all, how they moved tens of thousands of troops to Poyan without a sound. This is a question that urgently needs to be answered.

Yunyan left the barracks and returned to Xingbeiguan, as if there was no other place to go except to go back to the Yanyu Building.

Lin Aoxue wanted to follow the army back to Xingbeiguan. Before leaving, she went to Yunyan and asked her if she wanted to go back to Yanyu Tower, but Yunyan shook her head at her and said warmly:

"Aoxue, the New Year is coming, I want to go back to the capital."

Hearing this, Lin Aoxue was stunned for a moment. She didn't understand why she wanted to go to the capital when Yunyan arrived in Nianguan. Isn't she from the North? What surprised her even more and didn't understand was that Yun Yan was obviously the oiran of Yanyu Tower, why did she go to the capital?

She remembered what Yunyan had said to her before, that Yunyan was sent to Yanyu Tower by her father. Is it related to her father when she returned to the capital?

What is Yunyan's identity?

Lin Aoxue has always been curious and confused about Yunyan's identity. There is no ordinary oiran who is as free, unrestrained and versatile as her, but everyone has their own secrets, and she will not make Yunyan feel embarrassed.

She is just a little reluctant. She has been alone since more than ten years ago. Now she has finally met a Yunyan who knows her secret and is willing to treat her gently. Let go.

"Then will you still come to the North?"

Lin Aoxue clenched the handle of the gun tightly, pursed her lips tightly, pretending to be unintentional, but asked extremely nervously.

Yun Yan looked at her with a smile, blinked her eyes beautifully, leaned a little closer, and asked in a low voice:

"Then do you want me back?"

Lin Aoxue's face froze, she turned her head away and refused to answer.

Yunyan pretended to be lost, took two steps back, pretended to wipe a handful of tears that were not there at all, lowered her head and muttered:

"You don't even think about me, and you don't want me to come back, so what's the point of me coming back?"

Lin Aoxue took a breath. Because she turned her head, she couldn't see the expression on Yunyan's face, nor the sly smile in the latter's eyes. Her hand holding the handle of the gun tightened and tightened, and her front teeth almost bit her lower lip to bleed. Come.

After a while, she was clamoring, arguing, and clamoring in her heart, and she finally closed her eyes and replied:

"I thought, I want you to come back!"

She speaks quickly and doesn't stutter at critical moments. But her face was ugly, as if she was going to fight on the battlefield and was forced to be a prostitute by Yunyan.

Yunyan couldn't hold back, she laughed out loud, Lin Aoxue realized that she had been tricked again, she was extremely annoyed, she was so ashamed, she clenched her fists, her face was as black as the ashes under the boiler .

Seeing Lin Aoxue like this, knowing that she was mad at Lin Aoxue, Yunyan laughed enough to stop her voice, then quickly stepped forward and grabbed Lin Aoxue's sleeve, and shook it like a coquettish:

"In the spring of next year, I will come back to open a pharmacy, what do you think?"

Being pulled by Yunyan like this, Lin Aoxue immediately forgot her resentment and became awkwardly nervous again. After hearing Yunyan's words, she widened her eyes and asked in surprise:

"Pharmacy? What about Yanyu Building? Are you going back?"

Yunyan also glared at her, pretending to be angry and asking:

"Why, Bei Chenlong paid the ransom, do you still want me to jump in again?"

Lin Aoxue straightened her back and shook her head again and again:

"You know that's not what I meant."

She just wondered, if she could leave Yanyu Building so easily, why did Yunyan stay in it for so long before, she had left Yanyu Building and went to the barracks. It can also be said that the deterrent force of the North Barracks is there, and the Yanyu Building may be deterrent. Yu Beichenlong's official prestige, only then let go.

But Yunyan wants to go out alone and open a pharmacy, how easy is it to say?

Lin Aoxue couldn't figure out how Yun Yan acted, and she couldn't understand, but Yun Yan only looked at her and smiled. The price behind that smile was something that Lin Aoxue couldn't know.

It is by no means easy for a person who is deep in the quagmire to get out of the rotten quagmire and retreat.

So she went to Beijing to exchange her own value for more freedom and rights.

When the army was returning, Yunyan sent Lin Aoxue to the outside of the temporary camp, and watched Lin Aoxue walk back to the army. The smile on her face slowly disappeared.

A carriage came slowly and stopped firmly behind Yunyan. The door curtain was opened, and a respectful soft call came from inside:

"Miss Yun."

Yunyan took another look at the camp in the distance, and even if she looked far away, she couldn't see the figure she just sent away.

She turned around and got into the carriage and sighed softly:

"Back to the capital."

At the beginning of the battle, Lin Aoxue followed Yang Jin's army back to Xingbei Pass. The high-level officials in the pass discussed the attack on Poyan for a whole day. After Beichenlong sent a large army to reinforce Poyan that day, he sent another person to check the barbarians. The line of invasion found that the outposts on the road had all been removed.

The barbarians moved quickly and silently. It was obvious that someone sent a message to the barbarians from within the gate, letting them know the regularity of the changing of the post, and bought enough time.

Bei Chenlong was furious, and there was an internal ghost in the army. Not only can this matter not be publicized, but it must be suppressed as much as possible, and then secretly investigated. As for how much time it would take, he was not at all sure.

Lin Aoxue showed her great power in the battle to retake Poyan, killing hundreds of enemies, breaking through the city gate, and making outstanding achievements. Bei Chenlong finally raised her to a thousand households. She was also the first in the history of the Northern Territory. He was promoted all the way from the corporal to the soldier of Qianhu.

Since then, Xingbeiguan has been waiting in battle, but the barbarians have not attacked again. It was not until the late autumn passed and the early winter came. The first snow spread on the ground of Xingbeiguan, dyeing everything silver and white, and also the past year in this land. The blood running on it was hidden silently.

With the advent of winter, the soldiers in the northern border finally had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief. Beichenlong also ordered the recruitment of new soldiers as in previous years. The number of soldiers lost in battle this year has increased several times compared with the past, which also made Beichenlong devastated and unable to sleep.

The end of the year was approaching, and an urgent order came from the capital, the emperor asked Bei Chenlong to send officers above the general level to return to Beijing to report their duties.

The moment he received the imperial decree, Bei Chenlong's face was pale, and the war situation at the border would be compiled by the Overseer and sent back to the capital every month.

Obviously, Yang Jin has already submitted all the battles in Xingbeiguan this year. Even if Beichenlong fought several victories in front of him and finally recaptured Poyan, he could not hide the culpability of Poyan's capture and Yongan's destruction.

The emperor does not care about the past, he only looks at the final result, and he will never make mistakes.

Bei Chenlong felt a lot of pressure because of this, and the candidates he sent to Beijing this time had to be carefully considered.

The closer to the New Year's Day, the more sorrowful Bei Chenlong became. Even in a place as bitter and cold as the North, every Chinese New Year was filled with joy. Only the army was as bleak as ever, and the soldiers on the school grounds shouted during drills for a long time. reverberate.

The sky was getting colder and the soldiers were wearing thicker clothes. Lin Aoxue came down from the school grounds and rubbed her hands while holding the silver gun. She glanced in the direction of the capital. It had been more than a month since Yunyan left the northern border. .

She didn't know how Yunyan was doing after she went to the capital, and whether she could really return to the north to open a small pharmacy in the spring of next year. Lin Aoxue also felt good if it was as Yun Yan had imagined, and she could live a stable and peaceful life when she came back.

As for herself, she still has a great revenge to avenge, another year has passed in a hurry, and she will be one year older in the coming year.

She doesn't think much about it on weekdays, but sometimes, like this, when the New Year is approaching, other people's families are reunited, and even the soldiers in the military camp come to visit from outside the camp. will feel unreasonably sad.

She returned to her tent, lit the lamp as usual, and opened the book to study the art of war, but Lu Sheng's rough and bold voice sounded outside the door:

"Thousands!"

Lin Aoxue was promoted to a thousand households, and Lu Sheng was also promoted by his military exploits in the battle for Poyan. He ran in with a pot of wine, and with a smile, he held the wine jar and sat down directly in front of Lin Aoxue with Lin Aoxue:

"I went to the market just now. I passed by Fuyun Village, and I brought a jar of wine back. Anyway, I will rest tomorrow. Would you like a drink for Qianhu?"

Lin Aoxue put down the book and saw that Lu Sheng had taken out two wine bowls on his own. She carefully noticed that Lu Sheng's eyes were a little red. She thought that when she went to the market just now, she was touched by the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year.

There was a breath of white breath in her mouth, a smile on her face, without piercing Lu Sheng's careful thoughts, she only said:

"Okay, fill it up!"

Lu Sheng happily poured wine for Lin Aoxue, and the two sat down for a drink. Lu Sheng and Lin Aoxue chatted about the previous family affairs. He said that he had a wife and a two-year-old daughter. , both parents are there, and every Chinese New Year, the family is also lively and lively.

As he spoke, his eyes turned red, and tears soon shed, the hot tears fell into the wine bowl, making the hot wine that had just been warmed dizzy extremely bitterly.

It was supposed to be a happy and happy family, but during the autumn harvest last year, due to the invasion of barbarians, the homeland was trampled down, and all happiness became fragmented, just like... Yongan Town, which was just destroyed this year.

Lin Aoxue said that the wine in the bowl was poured into her throat. She was silent, not knowing how to comfort her. She only sighed and smiled bitterly:

"Thirteen years ago, I was just like you."

People who have not experienced it personally can never feel the same way. This kind of knife cuts in the heart. Even if the wound heals slowly and becomes fleshy as time goes by, the pain will be doubled every time of the festival.

Lu Sheng was silent for a long time before he shook his head and drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp. When the wine was swallowed, he laughed twice again with tears in his eyes. He laughed, and suddenly burst into sobbing and sobbing. .

Boys don't cry easily, and it's even more difficult to cry like this.

Lin Aoxue patted Lu Sheng on the shoulder, and did not continue to comfort him. It was better to release her emotions than to keep it in her heart.

That night, Lu Sheng was very drunk, Lin Aoxue dragged him back to where he lived by the collar of his collar, threw him on the bed, covered the quilt, and went back.

Early the next morning, Bei Chenlong sent a messenger to call Lin Aoxue over.

Lin Aoxue drank a bit of wine last night, and today it's the rest of the day. She got up a little later. She heard Bei Chenlong's sudden summons. She got dressed in confusion and went to Bei Chenlong's camp with the messenger.

In addition to Bei Chenlong, there were two other people in the tent, the warden Yang Jin and the partial general Guo Wencheng.

When Lin Aoxue came, Bei Chenlong was discussing matters with Yang Jin and the two of them. He heard the order from outside the tent saying that Lin Aoxue was coming. Bei Chenlong waved to the guards to let Lin Aoxue in. When Lin Aoxue saluted, Bei Chenlong said:

"Aoxue, you have been to the capital before!"

Hearing this, Lin Aoxue felt a little inexplicable. Why did the handsome Bei Chenlong suddenly mention the capital? With a calm expression on her face, she answered calmly:

"Yes, many years ago, I went to the capital to find relatives and failed, and I lived on the streets. If I hadn't met the master by chance, my subordinates might not be able to survive that winter."

Bei Chenlong nodded:

"Well, what happened in the past few years was embarrassing, but now you are a thousand households. Even if you go to the capital again, it will be beautiful."

Lin Aoxue suddenly heard what Bei Chenlong said, she was stunned for a while, looked up at Bei Chenlong, and said doubtfully:

"What does the general mean by that?"

Bei Chenlong didn't turn around, he walked over from behind the table and patted Lin Aoxue on the shoulder:

"There is a decree in Beijing for me to send someone to Beijing to report on my work. I plan to send Guo Wencheng, and you will accompany me."

Lin Aoxue is the most outstanding recruit in the Northern Territory this year, and she has fully participated in every war. Bei Chenlong intends to train Lin Aoxue, and this time to report to Beijing is also an opportunity to perform. In the emperor's opinion, Lin Aoxue's appearance can represent the lower ranks of soldiers in the Northern Territory. The quality of her, her position is neither high nor low, just right.

After choosing from left to right, he decided to let Lin Aoxue go with Guo Wencheng.

After Bei Chenlong finished speaking, Lin Aoxue's face was quite shocked. After a while, she realized that she hurriedly knelt down on one knee and saluted Bei Chenlong:

"My subordinates will live up to the general's high hopes."

There are so many soldiers in the North, and after fighting all their lives, few can enter the capital. Of course, Lin Aoxue knows that this is an opportunity that cannot be found. When entering the capital, even if the North has lost the battle, the emperor wanted to express himself. Generosity is not too harsh, and there are many rewards.

Naturally, Lin Aoxue didn't go for those rewards. If possible, she actually didn't want to return to the capital now. The more familiar places the capital is, the easier it is to reveal flaws and be discovered by others.

But she couldn't refuse Bei Chenlong's arrangement. This was a job everyone wanted, and if she showed any reluctance, it would definitely arouse suspicion.

Lin Aoxue's reaction was undoubtedly satisfying to Bei Chenlong, he nodded and smiled, and warned again:

"Beijing is not as important as our northern border. You can't act recklessly, but remember to listen to General Guo's arrangements, you know?"

"Subordinates obey the general's teachings!"

Lin Aoxue responded repeatedly, and when she got up, she turned her head to look at Guo Wencheng, who smiled and nodded at her, Lin Aoxue immediately clasped his fists at him:

"I also ask General Guo to take care of him."

Bei Chenlong also laughed:

"Well, the end of the year is approaching. After you go back, pack up your things and set off as soon as possible. Don't miss the time."

Lin Aoxue and Guo Wencheng were ordered to retire, leaving Yang Jin to discuss matters with Bei Chenlong in the tent.

On the way back, Lin Aoxue first went to find Lu Sheng. The latter had just woken up. Lin Aoxue told him that he was going to go out in the next two days. This trip to the capital, he might not be able to come back until a few years later. There are many things that need to be arranged. .

Lu Sheng was shocked when he heard that Lin Aoxue was going to the capital, but soon, he became happy again. While sighing that the capital was a good place, he jumped on his feet and said that he was going to help Lin Aoxue pack up, but Lin Aoxue sternly refused.

After Lin Aoxue explained what happened in the camp, she saw a few hundred households under her. She didn't say what she was going to do. She only said that she had a task for the past two months. A few hundred households urge the soldiers to drill well, and they must not be slack.

After arranging everything, Lin Aoxue returned to her tent, prepared two sets of clothes, and brought some dry food. In addition, there was only one gun left, and nothing else.

There was no speech all night. In the early morning of the second day, Lin Aoxue waited at the gate of the camp half an hour early. After a cup of tea, Guo Wencheng also arrived early. The two walked lightly, led two fast horses, and went to the capital. rush in.

The capital is located in the south of Beichen Kingdom. From the north to the capital, it takes more than half of Beichen Kingdom. Lin Aoxue and the two of them rushed for more than 20 consecutive days before finally arriving in the capital before the new year.

Lin Aoxue looked at the city gate, which became clearer and clearer in the distance, with deep eyes.

She hasn't come back to this place for ten years. Ten years can change a lot of things. Those who died and what happened have gradually faded out of the memory of others, and few people have mentioned them.

Lin Aoxue didn't know, and didn't want to know, what the former general's mansion had become now. This time, returning to Beijing was all accidental, and she would not be distracted by others. She could complete the tasks arranged by Bei Chenlong with peace of mind, and then return to the north to continue to keep a low profile and bide her time.

Approaching the magnificent city gate of the capital, Lin Aoxue's mind suddenly flashed through Yunyan's face, the corner of her lips pursed, and a very faint smile appeared on her face. Yunyan was also in the capital, although Lin Aoxue knew that it was impossible for them to meet by chance in such a big capital, but it was a happy thing to have the fate to celebrate the New Year in the capital.

Horses were not allowed in Beijing, so Lin Aoxue and Guo Wencheng restrained the reins in front of the city gate, jumped off their horses, and checked their identities at the guard outside the city gate before they were allowed to lead their horses into the city.

Lin Aoxue followed Guo Wencheng and walked into the city gate. He saw a wide and flat street. The Beijing-Central Road extended in all directions, and there were many shops and pavilions, which were extremely prosperous.

Those stalls that can be seen everywhere in the northern market are not allowed to be placed in Beijing, they are all unified into a corner of the city.

Lin Aoxue was walking on the streets of the capital and looked around at the same time. She hadn't returned for ten years. There was basically no change in the capital, except for those shops operating new businesses, or the restaurants and teahouses changing their owners.

"You have been to the capital before, but haven't you been to these places?"

Guo Wencheng asked Lin Aoxue with a smile when he saw Lin Aoxue looking around, as if sighing.

Lin Aoxue knew that he had no ill intentions, but was just stating the fact that beggars were not allowed on the main streets of the city. In order to ensure that the city is clean and tidy, the hawkers and beggars have been driven away and cannot stay here.

Therefore, he said that Lin Aoxue should have never been here before, and he did not mean to ridicule.

Lin Aoxue nodded generously and admitted:

"I only dared to beg near the market in the west at that time, and I have never been to these places."

Guo Wencheng laughs:

"Then you can go out and stroll around after you are in the face of the Holy Spirit. There are many interesting things in the capital."

Lin Aoxue answered yes, and chatted with Guo Wencheng for a few more words.

Guo Wencheng's father was a third-rank civil official and had a family business in Beijing. Although Guo Wencheng had been guarding the border for many years, he grew up in Beijing when he was a child, so he was quite familiar with the capital. He disobeyed his father's career path and insisted on following his best friend Yang Jin to the border. It has been eleven years since he left Beijing.

When he returned to Beijing this time, his mood was also very complicated. He wondered if he would be kicked out by his old father after returning to Guo Mansion.

Lin Aoxue and Guo Wencheng each had sighs in their hearts, and they were speechless for a while. The two walked forward for a while, and turned a corner, which was the inn.

Guo Wencheng led Lin Aoxue towards the inn, and the young man who was waiting for customers outside the store hurriedly stepped forward to take the reins from the two of them. They were waiting to enter the door when suddenly there was a loud and noisy sound from the street. Lin Aoxue paused and turned around. He turned his head towards the direction of the sound.

A horse-drawn carriage was rushing along the street. The horses seemed to be frightened and out of control, and they ran extremely fast.

When the fast-running carriage was about to pass by where Lin Aoxue was standing, its wheels were smashed by a stone on the ground, the body trembled, and one wheel was lifted.

A terrified scream came from the car. The servant sitting in front of the car was unable to grasp the wheel of the car, and was thrown from the car by a huge force. dead or alive.

The out-of-control carriage continued to gallop forward, but it had completely deviated from its original direction. One wheel was hanging in the air, and it rushed towards Lin Aoxue!

Lin Aoxue frowned. She was standing on the edge of the street, and the inn was beside her. She could dodge sideways, but the carriage would definitely ram the door of the inn, hurt the passers-by beside her, and then hurt the guests in the inn. .

Guo Wencheng was also attracted by this movement. Seeing the carriage rushing towards Lin Aoxue, Guo Wencheng's complexion changed greatly, and he shouted:

"Danger!"

He subconsciously reminded Lin Aoxue to dodge, and Lin Aoxue sighed inwardly when she sensed the direction of the carriage. Her eyes narrowed, her toes tapped the ground, and she jumped up, instead of retreating, advancing, Yu Guo Wencheng was shocked. In his eyes, he rushed towards the carriage.

She jumped onto the carriage of the carriage, quickly grabbed the fast-swinging reins, stepped hard with her feet, and stepped back on the cocked side of the wheel, pulling the reins with both hands, forcing the mad horse to turn.

The bumpy carriage swept past the front of the inn like lightning, and the shop assistant, who couldn't retreat in time, slumped on the ground in fright.

After Lin Aoxue led the horse to the right path, he simply jumped on the horse's back, clamped the horse's belly, pulled the reins, controlled the speed of the horse's running, and used extremely exquisite skills to slowly stop the frightened horse.

"What a handsome kung fu!"

As soon as the carriage stopped, I don't know who gave a loud exclamation, and the people on both sides of the street clapped and applauded. For a time, the whole street burst into thunderous cheers, and the scene was quite spectacular.

The cheers woke Guo Wencheng, he asked Xiao Er to see what happened to the driver who fell off the carriage just now, and then walked towards Lin Aoxue quickly:

"Lin Qianhu!"

Guo Wencheng shouted, and when he was near, Lin Aoxue had turned off the horse's back and landed on the ground. The reddish-brown horse snorted and kicked in place, looking much docile.

"Okay, you are really amazing!"

Seeing that Lin Aoxue was unscathed, Guo Wencheng gave a thumbs up in admiration.

"Let's go, it's alright."

Lin Aoxue loosened the reins, turned around to thank the neighbors for their praise, and prepared to go back to the inn with Guo Wencheng.

But she didn't take two steps, and suddenly there was a soft drink from behind:

"Wait a minute!"

Lin Aoxue stopped again, turned around to look at the carriage, and saw that the door curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing the figures of two women. One of them was a woman in a palace dress with a beautiful face, and her two eyes were very pale, and they seemed to shine from the sun. inside out.

She still had a panicked look in her eyes, and she had lingering fears about the accident she had just experienced, but in front of outsiders, she still forced herself to remain calm to show her noble identity and virtue.

The maid by her side lifted the curtain of the carriage for her, the woman leaned forward slightly and looked at Lin Aoxue:

"Thank you for your help, I don't know if you can leave your name, this county... I will send someone to thank you later."

Lin Aoxue squinted at the woman with a cold face, and said only:

"You don't need to say thank you for your effort."

After saying that, she turned around and left. Guo Wencheng saw that she was indifferent and didn't stay much longer, so he clasped his fists towards the **** the carriage, turned and rushed to Lin Aoxue's side and walked into the inn with her.

The people on the carriage obviously didn't expect Lin Aoxue's attitude to be so indifferent. She was stunned for a moment, and when she regained her senses, the figures of Lin Aoxue and Guo Wencheng were already far away. The maid beside her also widened her eyes, looked at Lin Aoxue's back like a ghost, and murmured:

"Wow, the county master, this person is too bold."

Bei Chenling retracted his gaze, thoughtfully, but did not express his opinion on the maid's admiration.

The little boy who fell off the carriage just now knocked his head and bleed all over the place. Fortunately, he was lucky, and there happened to be a medical clinic next to him. Seriously.

The servant got up and thanked the doctor, left the money, and ran back to the carriage with the wound on his head, and accused the master in the carriage.

When Bei Chenling saw that he had fallen miserably, he was covered in ashes, and the gauze that had just been wrapped around his head was soaked with blood, so he didn't scold him. He only said that when he went back, he asked the doctor in the house to give him some medicine, and then motioned to his maid. Get yourself out of the car.

Today, she secretly came out without her attendants. She didn't dare to sit in this carriage. It was not far from the palace, so she took two steps to go back.

The servant followed behind them with the carriage, Bei Chenling walked a few steps, the panic in his heart gradually dissipated, and then he recalled the person who saved him just now, a strange person wearing a half mask.

She turned her head and asked the maid next to her:

"Yun'er, what did the gray-clothed boy call the black-clothed boy?"

Neither of the two left their names, so it was really hard to figure out what to call them.

Yun'er heard the words, tried her best to think about it, and answered somewhat uncertainly:

"It seems to be 'Lin Qianhu'."

The situation was urgent just now, and who would care about these things.

Bei Chenling made a "uh", and then there was no further text.

On the other side, Lin Aoxue and Guo Wencheng walked back to the inn side by side, and the second shop assistant kept thanking Lin Aoxue. If Lin Aoxue hadn't shown his skills just now, he would have been the first person to be hit by the carriage.

How could he be able to bear such a carriage rushing over, and he would have to lie in bed for months if he didn't die.

Lin Aoxue was expressionless from beginning to end, and there was even a faint sense of suffocation on her body. After dismissing the shop assistant, she asked the shopkeeper to open two upper rooms. Lin Aoxue and Guo Wencheng said that she was a little tired, so she went back to her first. Room.

Guo Wencheng was already used to Lian Aoxue's suffocating look, and he didn't think there was anything wrong. He was already tired after a long journey, and after going through what just happened, it was normal for him to be tired and tired, so he didn't leave Lin Aoxue out to eat, only Said to let Xiao Er bring her the food later.

Lin Aoxue went back to the room, closed the door, put her back on the door panel, held the mask on her face with one hand, and clenched her fist with the other, her eyes seemed to be covered with frost, revealing undisguised killing. will and hatred.

"Oh... that's a coincidence."

She did not expect that she would meet Bei Chenling as soon as she returned to the capital. She couldn't guarantee that if she left a little later, she would be so angry that she would break the woman's neck on the spot.

Beichenling, the county lord of the Prince Zong's mansion, is the jewel in the palm of Prince Bei Chenhe.

Also... Thirteen years ago, the barbarian documents that were obtained from nowhere were hidden in the inkstone and given to her, so that she could take it home, which led to the people sent by the emperor later to search for the documents from the dark layer of the inkstone. Therefore, she convicted her father and raided her house.

When she was young and ignorant, she was used by others, and she once regarded this girl as her closest friend.

Lin Aoxue clasped her chest with her backhand, and bursts of piercing pain rolled into her heart, causing her to arch her body involuntarily. one slice.

After that incident, she has not seen Beichenling for thirteen years. Beichenling has changed a lot. She has lost her innocence in childhood and has become mature and graceful. And a powerful arm.

Although she has changed a lot, she can't quite see her childhood appearance, but Lin Aoxue can recognize her eyes turned to ashes.

Lin Aoxue breathed hard, let out the stuffy breath that was stuck in his chest, and then laughed at himself, regretting why he had to rescue him just now, and let the carriage slam into the door of the inn.

She walked to the bed in two steps, lay down in her clothes, stretched out her hand to loosen the quilt, and covered her head with the quilt. She planned to take a good sleep and calm down.

When Lin Aoxue slept, she dreamed of the scene of visiting the Prince's Mansion when she was a child, and reciting poems with Bei Chenling.

It was supposed to be a calm and peaceful scene, but suddenly the surrounding scenery changed. Bei Chenling stood in the sea of ​​​​fire, holding a sharp dagger into Lin Aoxue's heart, but tears were streaming down her face. something.

Lin Aoxue woke up suddenly, someone knocked on the door, and there was a crisp knocking sound.

She wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and felt that it was better not to sleep this night. Although she had forgotten most of what she saw in her dream after waking up, the feeling of exhaustion remained on her body, making her limbs weak and weak. , very distressing.

She struggled for a while, sat up from the bed, then got out of bed, and went to open the door. The second shopkeeper brought the food. Lin Aoxue asked him to put it directly on the table. Just sat down to eat.

After dinner, it was still early, and Lin Aoxue knocked on Guo Wencheng's door and found that he was not in the room after going out. Lin Aoxue left the inn on his own and planned to stroll around the neighborhood.

She paced slowly along the street, because the New Year was approaching, the capital was at the foot of the emperor, and there were lanterns everywhere, which were very beautifully decorated.

Lin Aoxue was walking, and was about to cross a street, when she suddenly heard a pleasant melody from a distance. The beautiful rhythm of the melody seemed to be familiar, crossing the long street with people coming and going, and getting into Lin Aoxue's ears.

She was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look subconsciously, but saw a pavilion in the depths of the long street, with exquisite and elegant decoration, majestic.

In the open space in front of the building, a lot of talented people gathered, appreciating poems and paintings to each other. In the middle of the attic, there is a piano platform on the second floor, and there is a girl playing the piano on the platform. The melody is gentle and the temperament is moving.

Lin Aoxue was so far apart that she couldn't see the face of the man on the stage. She hesitated for a while, but she still walked towards the small building.

The street entrance was not far from the small building, about a hundred paces. When she approached, the sound of the piano stopped. The person who played the piano just now also left the piano platform. There was only one guqin left on the platform, which seemed particularly desolate.

She lowered her gaze for a few minutes, and saw a plaque hanging on the beam of the entrance to the first floor, which wrote:

Smoke and Rain Building.
