Chapter 12: Chasing the Moon

Hua Feiyue lowered her head, not daring to participate in their conversation at all.

In fact, she didn't really understand what happened, anyway, she just bowed her head and ate.

It seems that Jun Zhaoying assigned Yuan Shuang to fight the Xianbei army, and Yuan Shuang also asked Shu Xianmo to go with him by name.

Hua Feiyue didn't understand why Yuanshuang's eyes were full of anger, while Shu Xianmo's surface was calm, but with a hint of surprise, both of them seemed emotionally unstable, especially permeating.

Jun Zhaoying pondered for a moment: "Sure."

Shu Xianmo's face, which has always been flattered and humiliated, seemed to have cracked a little, the corners of his lips were curled up mockingly, and two words were squeezed out between his teeth: "Obey."

Liu Ying poured a small glass of wine for Hua Feiyue, and said with a smile: "Commander Yuan has always been invincible, and this time with the military division, it will be even more powerful."

Yuan Shuang also showed a smile: "I would like to borrow your good words."

Jun Zhaoying nodded in satisfaction, turned around and said, "Kong Jin."

As soon as these words came out, Mu Kongjin's spoon fell to the ground, and Qi Yanyu, who was sitting opposite her, was already pale and speechless.

Except for Hua Feiyue, probably only the youngest Mu Fan was unaware of what happened.

Jun Zhaoying is venting her anger for Hua Feiyue.

Mu Kongjin complained incessantly, who knew that the always magnanimous general cared so much about this dancing girl?

Today, Yuan Shuang molested her a few words after drinking, and was transferred to the north to fight the Xianbei army; even Shu Xianmo, who didn't stop in time, also suffered.I and Mu Fan even let me sit idly by, presumably...

But I heard Jun Zhaoying say again: "The season of chasing the moon is approaching, you and Mu Fan can go back home to accompany grandma while Xiumu is here."

Mu Fan was young and couldn't understand the meaning behind his words, so he thanked Jun Zhaoying happily; Mu Kongjin naturally understood, so he had to thank Jun Zhaoying bitterly.

Qi Yanyu was still smiling, but broke out in a cold sweat.

Treating these confidantes like this, how will the general deal with himself...

But what she was worried about didn't happen. Afterwards, the dinner party ended without incident, as usual.

Jun Zhaoying stretched out his hand towards Hua Feiyue, Hua Feiyue hesitated for a moment, then grabbed Jun Zhaoying's sleeve: "General?"

As far as she knew, Jun Zhaoying's bedroom was just behind the place where they ate, Hua Feiyue didn't understand why Jun Zhaoying led her out.

"Aren't you going back to your bedroom?"

Jun Zhaoying tilted his head: "Take you somewhere."

Hua Feiyue nodded.

The moonlight was like a wash, and the two walked along the back garden to a locked room door. The steps were also covered with dust, and it seemed that no one had opened it for a long time.

Hua Feiyue didn't ask where this place is, she vaguely felt that this place was an important place for Jun Zhaoying.

Jun Zhaoying took out a key from his pocket, unlocked it, and gently pushed open the wooden door: "Come."

The room was pitch black, and Jun Zhaoying took something and lit a small lamp, which could barely illuminate a small area, but it was enough for Hua Feiyue to see the general layout of the room.

This place seems to be a utility room, where some scrolls, picture scrolls and other items are piled up.

Jun Zhaoying signaled her to sit down, and Hua Feiyue found a chair and sat down.

"The Moon Chasing Festival is coming."

Jun Zhaoying dropped such a sudden sentence, but Hua Feiyue understood what she meant.

Every year when the moon chasing season is approaching, the whole family will get together, make some cakes and eat to worship the moon, and enjoy the moon and sweet-scented osmanthus together.

Hua Feiyue thought, Jun Zhaoying has no father or mother, and at this time of year, it is inevitable that he will be hurt by the scene.

Why not yourself?Hua Feiyue also often misses her parents who don't know if they are still alive, and imagines what it would be like if she lived with them.

Jun Zhaoying took out a scroll from a wooden cabinet, and gently unfolded it on the table. On it was a painting of a dancing beauty.

She has blue eyes and fluttering hair, and she is not wearing the usual Central Plains clothing, but a Hufu with a wide skirt and long sleeves.

Hua Feiyue couldn't help but said: "This is... Hu Xuanwu?"

Hu Xuanwu is not allowed to dance in the palace, nor is it allowed to wear Hu clothes.

Now that wars are raging, all the courtiers are hostile to foreigners, so Hua Feiyue only has a rough idea of ​​what Hu Fu looks like.

"This is my mother."

Under the lamp, Jun Zhaoying gently stroked the scroll, casting a shadow behind her, and her dry voice seemed to be full of nostalgia and melancholy: "She left early, and I have no impression of her... I just remember , she dances the Hu Xuan dance very well."

Hua Feiyue couldn't remember what happened later that night.

It's just that Jun Zhaoying's eyes at that time suddenly carved a brand in Hua Feiyue's heart.

In a few days, Jun Zhaoying became inexplicably busy, saying it was unexpected, but it was not unexpected.

The position of a general is destined to be full of affairs, even after Jun Zhaoying is in court, he will be called back to the palace from time to time.

Hua Feiyue was not used to it at first, but after a few days, she gradually got used to it.

However, as an idler in the mansion, he does not have heavy responsibilities like Jun Zhaoying, nor does he have tasks like Yuan Shuang and Shu Xianmo, nor does he need a temporary shadow guard like the two sisters Mu Kongjin and Mu Fan Practicing every day, Hua Feiyue really feels that life has become a little empty.

After all, the past days were spent in the day-to-day practice of the dance studio. Since childhood, Hua Feiyue has never had such a relaxed life, and she is very restless.

Su Liuying, who was at a childlike age, became Hua Feiyue's main object of relief.

Jun Zhaoying did not let Hua Feiyue leave the mansion, but only ordered his servants to respond to Hua Feiyue's requests.

So, on a sunny morning, as soon as Jun Zhaoying went out, Hua Feiyue and Su Liuying sneaked out as well.

The Moon Chasing Festival is approaching, and the capital city is very lively, and vendors everywhere have been shouting and shouting since the early morning, which is quite a bustling scene.

Although Su Liuying was young, she was familiar with this kind of thing, so she took Hua Feiyue to a street with the most people.

Hua Feiyue didn't go out to go shopping very often, she was a little bit tied up, but the girls were naturally interested in such things, and with Su Liuying with her, she gradually became less restrained.

Su Liuying smiled and said, "Girl Hua, do you want to buy a river lantern?"

On August [-]th, the girls would write down their wishes and put them in the lamp, then put the lamp into the river and let it float away along the river.

It is said that in this way, no matter what is written, the wish will come true.

Hua Feiyue's heart moved, and the two just followed the crowd to a stall selling lanterns.A middle-aged man kept yelling, and when he saw the two of them staying, he quickly smiled and said, "Young lady, do you want to buy a river lantern? I made this by my own wife, so it must look good."

Su Liuying talked a lot, and soon started chatting with the uncle who sold the lanterns; Hua Feiyue looked at all kinds of river lanterns.

She immediately fell in love with a lamp that was made into a puppy. Its body was painted gray, it was really small and cute, and it opened its mouth with its tongue sticking out. With a loyal look, Hua Feiyue couldn't help but think of a certain general... ...Uh no, of course she wouldn't say such disrespectful words.

Here, Su Liuying also picked a little rabbit, and Hua Feiyue was about to pay for it.

She has stayed in the dance workshop for so long, so no matter what, she has some salary, how can she let Su Liuying, a little girl, pay the bill?

But Su Liuying smiled and took out a piece of letter paper, and said to the uncle: "Please send these two lamps to the General's Mansion tonight."

The middle-aged man looked at the inscription on the paper, smiled and said: "Hey, good!"

Hua Feiyue was a little puzzled, she tugged on Lasu Liuying's sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Don't you want to pay the bill? Let someone send it directly?"

"Flower girl..." Su Liuying was amused by Hua Feiyue, "Of course I will pay after sending it to the general's mansion. We have to go shopping for a long time, and we won't let them send it there. Have we been carrying so many things?"

Hua Feiyue immediately fell silent, and silently followed Su Liuying, a very experienced veteran, to the next house.

Su Liuying was very interested, and wanted to buy a copy of everything she encountered; Hua Feiyue was very different, when she came across something she liked so much that she couldn't help but touch it, when she heard the price, she silently put it back, making Su Liuying feel uncomfortable. They all laughed at her: "Girl, pick more things you like, the general won't blame you."

Hua Feiyue asked strangely: "Why does the general blame me?"

Su Liuying stared at Hua Feiyue for a while, and suddenly said: "Miss, have you misunderstood? Everything we buy is charged to the general's account."

"What?" Hua Feiyue's eyes widened, and she almost poked her hand with the hairpin she was playing with, "This is not good, how can I spend the general's money at will? Why do I have some monthly salary these years, so naturally I have to pay for it myself. "

Su Liuying almost laughed out loud, she didn't expect Hua Feiyue to think so: "My good girl, the general is not short of this money, besides..."

Besides, if it's the flower girl who spends money, our general would like to hand over all the gold and silver with his own hands.

The author has something to say:
