The first favorite of rebirth

Pei Jiqing and Jueyun traveled all night before returning to Jinzhou from Dingzhou. At this time, the sky was just getting bright, but there was no one on the long street.

"Uncle Pei." Jue Yun turned around and grabbed Pei Jiqing's hand, "Hold me tight."

"Why should I hug you, I..." Pei Jiqing was dizzy from the shaking, her hands had no strength left, she could only hold on to Jue Yun's clothes, "You boy, are you taking revenge on me..."

The gate of the general's mansion was close at hand, Jue Yun stretched out his hand and grabbed Pei Jiqing's hand, pinning him tightly behind him, the white horse let out a long howl, Jue Yun reined in the horse abruptly, Pei Jiqing fell on Jue Yun, and then Rolling off the horse, out of breath.

"I told you to hold me earlier."

Jue Yun easily jumped off the horse, watched him leaning on the wall to breathe, but deliberately did not help him, Pei Jiqing held Jue Yun with his hands, and cursed softly, "Little white-eyed wolf."

"Okay." Pei Jiqing held Jue Yun's little hand and said, "I won't be angry with you anymore...help me..."

"Give in so soon? You are too weak." Jue Yun took Pei Jiqing's hand and patted him on the back lightly, "Eat more food and exercise more in the future, don't ride a horse Big gasp."

"You heartless puppy!" Pei Jiqing glared at him, but he was not angry anymore. He held Jueyun's hand and said seriously: "What you said to me is all true?"

"Of course it is true." Jue Yun replied, and raised the mace in his hand, "There is also the mark of the royal family of the Liao Kingdom on it, which was left by his mother, and he left this to me as a promise with me. "

"Decisive cloud!"

Before Pei Jiqing could speak, Tang Wei suddenly ran out from the general's mansion and hugged Jueyun, whom he hadn't seen in three years, in his arms.Tang Wei is two years older than Jue Yun, but he is not as tall as Jue Yun at this moment, and he looks white and clean, still looks like a playboy, unlike Jue Yun standing there upright, like a general.

Pei Jiqing's heart softened, he smiled and sighed, as if Jue Yun's rashness and impulsiveness in letting Lin He go had turned into courage and vigor.

"I heard that you have been promoted, but I didn't have time to congratulate you." Tang Wei put his shoulders on Jueyun's shoulders with some difficulty. Someone is staring at me, why hide at the door and watch me, but don’t come out.”

Tang Weidao: "I'm watching you quarreling. You have been blowing the wind in the border for three years, and you have learned to talk back. Back then, you still followed others around."

Jue Yun suddenly stopped talking, Pei Jiqing said: "Young Lord, the sun has just risen, why did you go out?"

"Xia Chengxi didn't come back at night, and I didn't sleep well." Tang Wei turned her head and said, "I heard from him that you are going to stay in Dingzhou. Is Dingzhou fun?"

"It's not fun." Pei Jiqing hurriedly said: "Dingzhou is far behind Jinzhou, and there are a lot of barbarians who don't even want to eat food."

Tang Wei raised his head, as if he wanted to ask another question. At this moment, the sound of a carriage and footsteps came from the door. They turned their heads and saw that Xia Chengxi was holding a woman's hand and getting out of the car in a daze. The flowers are red and the willows are green, she handed Xia Chengxi into the hands of the general's mansion, and then turned back and got into the carriage.

Before the carriage went far, Tang Wei rushed up immediately and said angrily, "Are you going to drink flower wine?"

"I just drank too much and slept there all night." Xia Chengxi supported Tang Wei's shoulder, he glanced at Jue Yun, and suddenly woke up and said, "But what happened?"

"En." Jue Yun nodded, and said in a deep voice, "Go in and talk."

After hearing Jueyun's words, Xia Chengxi felt more sober than drinking a cup of herbal tea. He gripped the mace in Jueyun's hand, and said fiercely: "If you took the little prince of Liao Kingdom, it would be a credit. When Zhao told me about his doubts, I still couldn't believe it."

Jue Yun said in a deep voice: "Lin He is my friend, if he is willing to tell me this, he must be risking everything, how can I betray him?"

Xia Chengxi frowned and said nothing, Pei Jiqing hurriedly said: "General, Jueyun was also impulsive. If Lin He really harbored bad intentions, we won't be at peace for so long. Now that Dingzhou is still in our hands, if they want to take it back, It also takes a lot of work.”

"I am not impulsive." Jue Yun raised his head, "If Lin He really became the leader of the Liao Kingdom and repaired with us in Dazhou, wouldn't it be much better than years of wars? Dingzhou and Jinzhou are not far apart, and the people's customs But there is a lot of difference, if they can make good friends with the Han people, and everyone will benefit from each other, naturally they will not think about fighting."

After hearing Jue Yun's opinion, Xia Chengxi's expression became more relaxed. He reached out and patted Jue Yun's shoulder, and said, "Forget it, you're still young, it's not easy to think like this, but if there is any major event in the future, we'd better get along with you." I discuss it first."

Xia Chengxi had no choice, and he couldn't really criticize Jue Yun. Pei Jiqing didn't know what bold words Jue Yun and Lin He had said, but no matter who is the leader of the country, it is impossible for Da Zhou and Liao Kingdom to be repaired forever as the two teenagers agreed , the Liao Kingdom coveted the scenery of the Central Plains, and the generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty were also eager to open up territories. The struggle between countries is just like that between people, and it will never stop because of their own benefits.

Hearing Xia Chengxi's affirmation of himself, Jue Yun turned his head to look at Pei Jiqing. Xia Chengxi took a sip of tea and suddenly remembered Lin Hezhong's poison and scars on his body, so he said slowly: "The little prince is really ruthless, I would rather sacrifice Dingzhou , but also to kill the second prince. Although the second prince is fine, he probably won’t live for a few days when he meets such a younger brother. You should go back quickly. Don't let him see it."

"General Xia?"

Pei Jiqing nodded, and was about to pull Jueyun out when he heard footsteps hurriedly outside the door. He suddenly had an ominous premonition, and before he had time to speak, he flashed behind the screen wall of the hall.

Just as Pei Jiqing disappeared, Xiao Wansheng came in with big strides, Jue Yun was at a loss for a moment, Xia Chengxi hugged him and signaled that he was fine.

"Why did Lord Hou come here so early?" Xia Chengxi politely asked him to sit down, and said, "I was about to send someone to look for you, but you came first."

"Ben Hou went back to rest early, so naturally he got up early." Xiao Wansheng said this inexplicably, his eyes suddenly stopped on Jue Yun's face, but he quickly moved away. More than three years have passed since the capital city, Jue Yun's appearance has changed a lot, Xiao Wansheng and him only met once, how could he remember it.

Sure enough, Xiao Wansheng didn't look at Jueyun again, Xia Chengxi introduced: "This is Zhaoxin's captain Ying Jueyun, I got a copy a few days ago, the general should know about it."

"Yes, I heard that Captain Zhaoxin is young and promising, and the emperor appreciates it very much." Xiao Wansheng lowered his head and said suspiciously: "But looking at the young captain's attire, he really doesn't look like a local who has been in Dingzhou for a long time—"

His final note came to a halt, and Pei Jiqing's heart also rose. Xia Chengxi hurriedly said: "Master Hou is really sharp-eyed, and I will not hide it from Lord Hou. This child is the child of my former junior sister, who died of illness. , specially entrusted it to me to take care of, this time I will find an excuse to add an official position to the child, although this child has never participated in martial arts, the credit is true..."

"What are you talking about?" Xiao Wansheng patted Jueyun on the shoulder, but Jueyun gave him a sneaky look. He sat beside him loudly and said, "The child of General Xia's junior sister is certainly not an ordinary person. , it will take many years to participate in the martial arts, how can I bury the child."

"Thank you Lord Hou for your compassion."

Xia Chengxi quickly nodded his thanks, Pei Jiqing also heaved a sigh of relief, Xiao Wansheng said: "Since I'm here, let's go to the school grounds first, don't ask others to wait."

Xiao Wansheng turned around and left the General's Mansion, Xia Chengxi also followed behind with Jue Yun, Pei Jiqing waited for them to walk for a long time before coming out from behind the screen wall.Xia Chengxi's words were very straightforward, showing that he wanted to go through the back door, and Xiao Wansheng was also a Marquis who was appointed by the regent, so naturally he would not say anything, and maybe he would feel that Xia Chengxi was honest.

The school grounds were half a day away from Jinzhou City, Xiao Wansheng couldn't make it back, so he was relieved, thinking that he had to wait for Jue Yun to come back, Pei Jiqing couldn't sit still, so he took the money and went to the street, where the small I bought a few large flower pots at the stall, and I plan to go back to Dingzhou to grow vegetables. Although the flower pots can't grow anything, it's better than eating dried radishes every day.

The boss took the money, and Pei Jiqing tied the flowerpot together with hemp rope, and lifted it up with some difficulty.He was used to doing rough work since he was a child, but Rong Luan was not. This body was spoiled and spoiled, and it was difficult to even lift something. He couldn't help but look at that porcelain-white hand, and sighed slightly.

"Young master can't carry it?" The boss collected the money and asked, "Why don't I send someone to send it back to you?"

"No need." Pei Jiqing shook his head and said, "I'll borrow a car, you wait here..."

"My lord, do you want to borrow the car below?"

Before Pei Jiqing could finish speaking, a familiar low-pitched male voice suddenly came from behind him, and he felt the hairs all over his body tremble, and even his face turned white. He was silent for a long time before turning around slowly, pretending to be surprised and saying: "Lord Hou?"

"You ran far enough." Wearing casual clothes, with black hair pulled back naturally, Xiao Wansheng picked up the flowerpot on the ground and said in a low voice, "Get in the car."

People were coming and going on the long street, and Jue Yun was not by his side. Although Pei Jiqing was a little hairy, he still said: "Master Hou said let me go, I will stay away and don't disturb Master Hou. Yan Jiuding, why did Lord Hou go back on his word again?"

"Qiuan, I don't talk nonsense with you." Xiao Wansheng raised the flower pot and said directly: "If you don't come here again, I will just put it on your head, believe it or not?"

Pei Jiqing immediately walked to the carriage and said softly, "Please, Lord Hou."

The carriage drove forward, and along the way, Xiao Wansheng didn't talk to Pei Jiqing again. Pei Jiqing obviously watched Xiao Wansheng go to the school grounds, and he didn't know why he came back suddenly, but now it's broad daylight, and after so many years, it must be Xiao Wansheng will be fine.

The carriage finally stopped, Xiao Wansheng dragged Pei Jiqing into his temporary mansion, Pei Jiqing deliberately walked very slowly, he looked around the scenery, said: "Master Hou, this mansion is not bad, it was cleaned up in just a few days Son, it's even more grand than the capital city, so it can be seen that the regent admires Lord Hou very much..."

"Your mother sells everything." Xiao Wansheng stopped, grabbed Pei Jiqing by the collar, and threw him against the wall. Pei Jiqing slammed into the wall, feeling pain in his back. Before he had time to react, Xiao Wansheng had already slammed the door of the room, and said angrily: "I spare your life with good intentions, what have you done, and you are still hiding in the general's mansion, I am really a melon, melons have salt and taste , let you..."

After this string of swear words, although Pei Jiqing could only understand some key words, he could also see Xiao Wansheng's anger. He offered to go to the school grounds before, but then hurried back from the school grounds. It turned out that he really saw it in the general's mansion Own.

Pei Jiqing hurriedly said: "Master Hou, General Xia was an official in the same dynasty as my father, but he reluctantly took him in because he sympathized with his experience. Don't speak so harshly, General..."

Xiao Wansheng interrupted suddenly, and said: "Can you understand what I said? You just think I'm swearing badly."

Pei Jiqing was speechless for a while, thinking that since you know that I don't understand, why are you scolding me.

Seeing that Pei Jiqing was silent, Xiao Wansheng stepped forward and grabbed him by the neck, and then said in a deep voice, "I'll ask you, who is that Ling Jueyun? Is he your servant, or the child of Junior Sister Xia Chengxi, or The little prince..."

Before Xiao Wansheng finished speaking, Pei Jiqing's heart almost stopped beating. He didn't show any expression on his face, he just stretched out his hand to hold Xiao Wansheng's tightly clenched hand, and said, "Master Hou, my servant is staying in the capital. Could it be that if I run so far alone, I can't raise another person?"

Xiao Wansheng looked at Pei Jiqing's snow-white neck with red marks pinched out, and said in a low voice: "Since I am looking for you alone, I just want to give you a way out. If you want to live, you should kneel down and beg me now."

"Begging?" Pei Jiqing smiled instead of panic, he slowly let go of Xiao Wansheng's hand, and said: "If Lord Hou wants to beg the regent for the rest of his life, he can strangle me here."

"Don't give me eye drops." Xiao Wansheng still pinched him, but his movements were obviously lighter, "You just need to tell me, is Ling Jueyun that little bastard!"

Pei Jiqing took a breath, and said in a low voice: "If I were Lord Hou, I wouldn't care so much about his identity."
