[Rebirth] General waiting for my return

Tan Muqiu saw that Zhao Qingming raised the sword indiscriminately and went out, so he hurriedly followed behind.Xuan Qi, who was standing at the door, was startled by Zhao Qingming's sudden sword, and only managed to avoid it by leaning back.

"What are you doing?" Tan Muqiu hugged Zhao Qingming's arm, felt that Zhao Qingming was trembling, seemed extremely angry, and couldn't help being a little confused.

Zhao Qingming turned his head and glanced at Tan Muqiu. Even in the dark night, Tan Muqiu was still startled by the coldness in the other party's eyes. He had never seen the other party get angry, so he couldn't help but let go.

Xuan Qi stood there, stunned for a moment, looking at Tan Muqiu, as if waiting for him to speak.

"You go first, General Zhao is enough here." Tan Muqiu said.Xuan Qi took the order, and disappeared after a single leap.Tan Muqiu carefully glanced at Zhao Qingming, seeing that he didn't go after him, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Both of them were not wearing robes, Tan Muqiu said, "Let's talk in the room first."

Zhao Qingming didn't move when he heard the words, so Tan Muqiu had no choice but to go back to his room and put on his outer robe, then lifted the other's outer robe and draped it over the other's shoulders.Zhao Qingming remained silent and motionless from beginning to end.

"I don't know why you killed him so well." Tan Muqiu said, "I almost lost my life on the way back from the Changning Army today, but fortunately he shot in time." He had only heard of the Xuanyi Qilin, but had never seen it. Today The sudden appearance of Xuan Qi gave him an excellent impression of this dark guard organization.Even if Li Yue changed his face, the other party could easily recognize it, or they could see clearly that Li Yue's changed face got mixed up with the guards secretly.

"You should say something." Tan Muqiu said.

Zhao Qingming held the sword in his hand, motionless, like a piece of lifeless wood.Seeing him like this, Tan Muqiu simply turned around and went to the backyard. Seeing Hongfeng standing outside, she refused to enter the stable.

Since Hongfeng came to Qin Mansion, she had her own stable, and later she also had her own stable when she came to Prince Ning'an Mansion, and never stayed with other horses.Tan Muqiu touched Hong Feng's head and said, "If you don't want to go in, stay outside."

Tan Muqiu led Hongfeng to the front yard, and saw Zhao Qingming still standing there.When Hong Feng saw Zhao Qingming, she snorted. The moment the other party saw Hong Feng, she finally regained her anger.

He walked towards Hong Feng stiffly, with an expression of disbelief.Tan Muqiu stepped forward to pick up the robe that the other party had dropped on the ground, wrapped it around his body, and then looked at the person and horse in front of him.

Is Zhao Qingming feeling sorry for his own death?Qin Muqiu finally came to his senses.

"Hongfeng, where's your master?" Zhao Qingming asked.

Qin Muqiu only felt that this picture was a little familiar, and then remembered that Li Jin asked Hongfeng the same way that day.Sure enough, after hearing the words, Hongfeng looked at Tan Muqiu behind Zhao Qingming.

"How could Hongfeng follow you?" Zhao Qingming finally spoke.

"If you ask it, how will I know what it thinks." Tan Muqiu said.

Zhao Qingming was silent for a moment, suppressed the hostility in his eyes, touched Hongfeng with his hand, and said, "We have to leave early tomorrow morning, go back to sleep." After that, he did not follow until Tan Muqiu entered the room first.

After such a toss, Tan Muqiu had already lost all sleepiness. He nestled under the quilt and said to Zhao Qingming on the other side of the room: "Didn't you ask me why I went to Changning Army?"

"I don't want to know now, go to sleep." Zhao Qingming said.

"Then tell me, what enmity do you have with Xuan Qi?" Tan Muqiu asked.

"The original has nothing to do with him, he is just a dog who obeys people's orders." Zhao Qingming said.

Tan Muqiu sighed, the two were speechless.

Early the next morning, Shangwai took care of everything, and the three of them set off together.Tan Muqiu rode Hongfeng. Although he was tired all the way, he was not as exhausted as when he came here.Zhao Qingming seemed to be a different person, and his originally indifferent temperament became a little colder.

Looking at Tan Muqiu on the horse, Zhao Qingming even had the idea of ​​killing him with a sword.

He remembered that year, when Hongfeng had just grown up, Tan Muqiu rode Hongfeng to the countryside for the first time.Zhao Qingming saw that Hongfeng liked it very much, so he wanted to try riding it, but Tan Muqiu refused immediately.

"My best things have never been stingy with you, why are you not even willing to give me a horse?" Zhao Qingming complained with a smile on his face.

"Am I such a stingy person?" Tan Muqiu said seriously: "My father said that this horse only recognizes me as its master. Unless one day I die, if anyone can tame it at that time, it will follow whoever it is. .”

Zhao Qingming hurriedly took a sip, and blamed: "Don't talk nonsense, your father will never say such words to curse you."

"Hee hee, he said the first sentence, and I added the rest myself." After saying that, Tan Muqiu jumped off his horse, handed the reins to Zhao Qingming, and said, "Try it and see if Hong Feng will let you ride on it." .”

Zhao Qingming took the rein, but Hongfeng turned around and broke away from the rein, which made Tan Muqiu laugh out loud.

"Hongfeng really doesn't give face." Zhao Qingming shrugged.

After Tan Muqiu finished laughing, he whistled to call Hongfeng back, jumped on the horse first, then stretched out a hand to Zhao Qingming, and said, "Come up and sit behind me, Hongfeng won't give you face, I will give you face." you."

Zhao Qingming was overjoyed, and took the opponent's hand and used his strength to get on the horse's back. This time, Hong Feng was very honest.

Tan Muqiu felt sorry for Hongfeng, and he didn't want him to run faster, so the two of them rode a horse together like this...

"Hong Feng, remember, in this life, besides me, he is the only one who can control you." Tan Muqiu patted Hong Feng on the head and said.

"If one day someone else wants to be Hongfeng's master, I will kill him with a single sword." Zhao Qingming said.

Today someone else was sitting on Hongfeng's back, but Zhao Qingming broke his promise, he couldn't kill this person.Dayu cannot live without a king, even if the origin of this person is unknown, even if this person is inseparable from Tan Muqiu's death.

Xuan Qi shot and killed Tan Muqiu with his own hands, in front of Zhao Qingming.But "Li Yu" was detained in the Changning army, and finally returned to Guzhou with Xuanqi.

Zhao Qingming helped "Li Yu" return to the Changning Army, but he never expected that this would lead to Tan Muqiu's death.At least in his opinion, Tan Muqiu's death had something to do with "Li Yu"'s trip.

But he has no position to pursue, or even to avenge Tan Muqiu.

Li Yu is his lord, no matter it is true or not, as long as the other party is in that position, he is not qualified to question the other party, otherwise he is disobedient.Tan Muqiu and him have long been strangers, even if they take revenge, it is the Chang Ning army's business, the Hongfeng camp's business, and even King Ning'an's business, but Zhao Qingming has nothing to do with him.

Chang Ning's army was gloomy.

The commander of the Red Maple Battalion, Qin Muqiu, died in battle, leaving no bones left. King Ning'an, Li Jin, fell into a coma for two days after bleeding.Chang Ning's army was seriously injured.

Because Qin Muqiu didn't have a body, only half of his armor remained, so Yu Yun speculated on Li Jin's intentions, and decided not to set up a tomb for Qin Muqiu for the time being, but to build a mausoleum for him on the day of Zhongdu.After Li Jin woke up, he didn't express his opinion on this matter, which was regarded as tacit consent.

Seeing that Li Jin was silent after waking up, Yanji stood aside and remained silent.

"Bring that person to me." Li Jin was silent for a long time, then suddenly said.

Yanji took a deep breath and said, "Two days ago, Pindao took the initiative to let that man go."

Li Jin didn't say a word, and there was no emotion on his face.

After sitting until dusk, Li Jin got up and put on his cloak, got out of the tent, and walked straight to Tan Muqiu's tent.Yanji didn't dare to stop him, so he had to follow behind.

The camp was the same as usual, except that the charcoal basin was off, making it seem as cold inside the tent as it was outside.Yanji stepped forward to light a candle, Li Jin walked to the desk, and saw the picture of ink plums at a glance, and the poem mentioned by Yanji: The snow follows the deep winter solstice, and the plum blooms with the thick snow.

Once upon a time, in the royal residence of Beijun, the courtyard where Tan Muqiu lived was full of plum trees. Every winter, the courtyard was full of plum blossoms. Yu Yun often joked about this, saying that Tan Muqiu was obviously a warrior, but he loved being a scholar. That set, appreciating plum blossoms, painting, composing poems, and listening to the piano.

"You mentioned it, why didn't you finish writing it?" Li Jin asked.

"General Qin said that the writing should be left to the prince, and the poor Taoist should not be allowed to write." Yanji said.

Li Jin frowned, couldn't help but hold his breath, and almost forgot to breathe.The ink in the inkstone was dry, so he took the inkstone to wash it himself, sharpened the ink, moistened the pen, and then picked up the pen to dip the ink, but it didn't drop for a long time.

"You go out first, I'm going to rest in Mu Qiu's tent today." Li Jin still held the pen in his hand, and his eyes never moved away from the painting.

Yanji went out after hearing the words, and ordered someone to bring a lit charcoal basin before leaving.

Li Jin held the pen and refused to put it down for a long time. He smiled self-deprecatingly, and thought to himself, you are gone, so why should I go to Zhongdu?If I had known this, I might as well have stayed in Beijun, guarding the yard full of plum blossoms, even if I couldn't be free, at least you were by my side.

Tan Muqiu has been by his side for seven years. At the beginning, he was still a naughty boy. Later, under the shadow of swords and swords, he gradually grew into a general who can take charge of his own affairs.

"My lord, haven't you never been willing to come to my tent? Why don't you shy away from it today?" Qin Muqiu's slightly frivolous voice made Li Jin's heart ache.

"I'm all dead, so what's the use of you resting here every day?" Tan Muqiu's voice sounded again, less frivolous, and more lonely.

Li Jin covered his chest with one hand, his throat felt hot, and a mouthful of blood spewed out, and it fell on Tan Muqiu's unfinished drawing of ink plums.Dots of bright red are dotted on the branches, which are quite dazzling at first glance.

Li Jin barely steadied his trembling hand, picked up a pen and added another sentence next to Yanji's words: "When you don't love each other, where can you ask about life and death?"
