[Rebirth] General waiting for my return

After Wuyun took the silver needle to suppress the poison for Tan Muqiu, Zhao Qingming took a cloth towel and dipped it in warm water to wipe Qin Muqiu's face, and then stood beside him with a worried expression.

Wuyun bowed and picked up the scattered chess pieces on the ground one by one, and said, "You can wake up after a short sleep, don't worry."

Zhao Qingming's complexion didn't change when he heard the words, he took out a book from his arms and flipped through a few pages.It was "Strange People" that he took out from Tan Muqiu's pocket just now.

Zhao Qingming flipped through the entire book without distinguishing between sorrow and joy, and was hesitating whether to put it back in the other party's pocket, but found that Tan Muqiu, who was lying on the bed, had his eyes open, and he did not know how long he had been awake.

Zhao Qingming was a little embarrassed holding the book, and was about to explain, but found that although the other party's eyes were open, their eyes were empty, as if he had lost consciousness.

When Tan Muqiu was poisoned, he was drowsy, and he didn't know if he was asleep or awake, but he felt tight and painful in his chest.

When he was half asleep and half awake, he remembered a lot of past events.

Seven years ago, Tan Heng died in battle, and the young Tan Muqiu inherited the command of the Red Maple Battalion.This was originally a promise made by the late emperor to Tan Heng when he was alive, but no one thought that Tan Heng would suddenly die for his country when he was in his prime, and Tan Muqiu was still an ignorant boy at that time.

At that time, King Ning'an Li Jin was about to go to North Commandery to take over the vassal. For some reason, one morning, King Ning'an suddenly proposed that there were many barbarians and bandits on the northern border, and there were threats of war from time to time. After some experience, don't waste your time in Beijing.

At that time, Qin Muqiu was not a person who could read words and expressions, so he immediately rejected King Ning An's suggestion after hearing about it.

That night, Zhao Shuo arrived at the Tan Mansion.

Qin Muqiu has some feelings for Zhao Shuo. First, Qin Heng and Zhao Shuo have always been friends. Zhao Shuo is also a military general, in charge of the military deployment around the central capital, responsible for protecting the safety of the central capital; Got Zhao Shuo's care.

Therefore, when Zhao Shuo told Qin Muqiu that Hongfeng's camp in Zhongdu would bring him trouble, Qin Muqiu had to reconsider King Ning'an's suggestion.

Once Qin Heng died, Qin Muqiu was still young, and Zhao Shuo had such a close relationship with the Qin family, it was reasonable for the emperor to feel a little jealous.This principle is not difficult to understand, so Zhao Shuo doesn't need to say more, Tan Muqiu can understand the deep meaning of it.

Later, Zhao Qingming came to the Tan Mansion in person and told the other party that Tan Muqiu was going to enter the East Palace.Originally, Tan Muqiu had thought of letting the other party go to the northern border with him, but he had no choice but to give up later.Zhao Qingming said that he wanted to take into account the safety of the Zhao family, and it was inconvenient to get too close to Tan Muqiu.

In the past, Qin Heng took Hongfeng out all the year round, so there was no need to shy away from it.Now that the Red Maple Camp is stationed outside the city of Zhongdu, it is inevitable that anyone who sits in a seat of more than [-] people will feel a little uneasy.

So, Tan Muqiu took Hongfengying to North County with King Ning'an.

His father died in battle, Zhao Qingming entered the East Palace for the Zhao family, and left the central capital where he had lived since he was a child. At that time, Tan Muqiu could be said to be disheartened.

He was lazy since he was a child, he didn't care about court affairs, and he didn't have the ambition to lead troops to fight, but Dayu's most prestigious Red Maple Camp suddenly fell into his hands, which made him a little at a loss.Although the Red Maple Camp at that time was no longer as brilliant as it was in its heyday, it was still a force that Dayu should not underestimate.

After arriving in Beijun, Tan Muqiu was depressed for a long time.He often misses the days when he was in Zhongdu. At that time, with Zhao Qingming, he felt that there was nothing difficult in the world, and there was nothing that would scare him.Even when he first heard the news of Tan Heng's death, he felt that the sky was about to fall, but Zhao Qingming held up the sky for him again.

After all, in these years, he has the most sense of presence in his life, and the only person who has given him the most companionship and reliance is Zhao Qingming.Later, the other party entered the East Palace in order to protect the Zhao family.This was a reasonable thing in the first place, Tan Muqiu didn't blame the other party, it was just that he felt very sad.

People who have been able to rely on for a long time suddenly don't let themselves depend on them.At that time, Qin Muqiu was like a person who had been on crutches all year round, but suddenly he couldn't find his crutches on the rough and muddy road.

Later, slowly, he found that life was not so bad.King Ning'an treated him kindly, and the old generals of the Hongfeng camp were all kind to him because of Tan Heng's relationship.

Fortunately, Tan Muqiu is not a rotten wood, and after several years of carving in the northern border, it can be regarded as a sharp weapon.

And later... Qin Muqiu found himself having some unspeakable affection for King Ning An.

He also couldn't remember when these feelings arose.Perhaps it was that year when he was hit by the poisoned hidden weapon of the bandits. He thought that if he died because of this, King Ning'an would be happy to take over the Red Maple Camp, but the other party did everything possible to find an unknown number of doctors, and finally killed him. Perhaps it was that year when he led the Red Maple Battalion to raid the enemy army, but encountered a blizzard when he returned to the camp, and the small group of followers he led separated from the large army in the ice and snow. He thought he would freeze to death in the wild. But the other party found him before he lost consciousness...

In short, these feelings in his heart gradually took root and sprouted, and became more and more intense.However, although King Ning'an treated him kindly, he never moved beyond his distance.

Tan Muqiu felt that Li Jin also had him in his heart.

At least he thought so before today.

He also thought about it, since the other party has feelings for him, why did he refuse to express it to him in words?At first, he felt that the other party might be concerned about his identity. If he was an ordinary person, it would be fine, and it wouldn't hurt to keep him by his side as a companion, but he was the commander of the Red Maple Battalion anyway, so he couldn't follow King Ning An as a A boy pet?

Later, he felt that since King Ning An was a person who was interested in the throne, he probably didn't want to have too many unnecessary troubles, for fear that it would end badly in the future.

He thought about many possibilities, but he never thought that it was because Li Jin had an affair with Li Yu, nor did he think that it was because Li Jin had too little affection for him, but it was because of the Red Maple Camp. treat him.

If you have enough affection for a person in your heart, how can you show restraint when you meet every day?Qin Muqiu thought.

"Your Majesty." Wuyun walked to the couch, knelt on the ground, and said: "The poor monk made the decision without authorization, and please forgive me."

Tan Muqiu's eyes moved, as if he had finally woken up.Zhao Qingming helped him to sit up, his eyes never looked at Wuyun on the ground, but stayed on Tan Muqiu.

"It's better to be confused about some things." Tan Muqiu looked tired, got up from the couch after a long time, helped Wuyun on the ground, and said: "That's fine, otherwise I'm afraid I won't know his thoughts until I die. If you want to blame it, blame me for being so ignorant that I was so focused on working for others that I didn't even know how I died."

Zhao Qingming took the outer robe and put it on Tan Muqiu, and the other party put it on with his hands, saying, "Go back."

The two were taken aback when they heard the words, and looked at each other.Wuyun secretly kept Li Jin to meet Tan Muqiu. This matter is not a big deal, but it is not a trivial matter. Unexpectedly, Qin Muqiu didn't express it at all.

There was still blood on the side of the short table that would not be wiped off in the future, Tan Muqiu took a look, and went out without stopping.

"I'll come back to settle accounts with you later." Zhao Qingming hurriedly left behind after Tan Muqiu.

Wuyun shrugged and let out a sigh of relief.Suddenly remembered something, and quickly followed out.Before he had gone far, he saw Tan Muqiu running back in a hurry, grabbed Wuyun's lapel and said, "Where is Hongfeng?"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the poor monk moved Hongfeng to another place while you were talking with the prince. The prince did not see Hongfeng." After Wu Yun said, Tan Muqiu's expression eased a little.

Zhao Qingming already knew what he had heard. Wuyun was probably afraid that Li Jin would cause trouble after seeing Hongfeng, so he hid Hongfeng elsewhere.It's just that I was still on the roof at the time and didn't pay attention.

After Wuyun went to fetch Hongfeng, the two hurriedly left Wanli Temple.

Tan Muqiu didn't say a word all the way, until he arrived at Ninghe Hall, he said, "Give me the book." Zhao Qingming was taken aback, then took Yirenzhi from his arms and handed it to Tan Muqiu.

"You go back first." Tan Muqiu said, "Leave Hong Feng in the palace in the future, Qin Mansion...don't go there again, if you go again, I will set someone to burn it."

"Your Majesty..." Zhao Qingming wanted to say something, but Tan Muqiu said, "Can you beat the Qilin Guard?"

Zhao Qingming was silent for a moment when he heard the words, and had no choice but to surrender.

After setting up Hongfeng and leaving the palace, Zhao Qingming went straight to Wanli Temple.

Wuyun knew that he would come, so he had already prepared a vegetarian meal and hot tea.

"Why didn't you discuss it with me beforehand?" Zhao Qingming said straight to the point: "It's such a big deal that King Ning'an has arrived in the capital... What if he shoots and hurts him? Are you responsible?"

"I don't have the opportunity to discuss with you beforehand, besides, King Ning'an can't hurt His Majesty." Wuyun said.

"How do you know?" After Zhao Qingming asked, he suddenly remembered the scene he had glimpsed on the roof, and suddenly understood.

"You didn't even ask him why he found me here." Wuyun took a sip of tea and said, "When you and Your Majesty went to Changning Army in disguise, did you ever meet a Taoist priest?"

"There is one." Zhao Qingming thought of Yanji.

"That's my brother." Wuyun ignored the doubts on Zhao Qingming's face, "Aren't you a monk? How could there be a Taoist brother?" and continued: "He only speculated based on the appearance of the two of you I was involved in it."

Zhao Qingming said: "That senior brother of yours made King Ning An risk his life to come to Zhongdu just to see Li Yue?"

Wu Yun smiled and said: "He wants to find out something from His Majesty, and it seems that he has found out."

Thinking of Tan Muqiu kissing Li Jin, Zhao Qingming felt a little heartbroken.Thinking of Tan Muqiu's disheartened look when he saw Li Jin leave, his heartache turned into distress.

The two of them chatted one after another and finished their vegetarian meal.Wuyun looked at Zhao Qingming meaningfully and said, "You care more about His Majesty now than before. I always thought that you would ask me about the identity of His Majesty now. Since you don't ask, you must know."

Zhao Qingming's face was a little gloomy, and he said: "You are a monk, so don't be so forthright about some things. Who is he, and how did you know the difference between us? It's good to be tacit. Even if you glimpsed the secret, we Not curious either."

"It's a pity that he doesn't care about you." Wuyun smiled.

Zhao Qingming's eyes turned cold, he glanced at Wuyun, and then felt a little depressed.
