[Rebirth] General waiting for my return

It's night, Qin Mansion.

A lantern with a weak flame hung on the dilapidated porch, and a thin figure stood in front of the red maple tree in the courtyard.The figure is hidden in the darkness, and it is not easy to find at a glance.

The maple tree had grown in the palace for so many years, but it was suddenly moved here, and I don't know if it will survive.Thinking of this, the figure standing in front of the tree let out a soft sigh.

Some things can't be forced at all.

After an unknown amount of time, another black figure jumped into the courtyard, saw the lantern on the porch froze, and then saw the person standing in front of the maple tree.

Tan Muqiu turned his head, looked at the person who jumped into the courtyard just now, and said, "My lord, I said, if I see you again, I will hang Qin Muqiu's body on the tower of Zhongdu. You will come later tomorrow." Going out of the city, I think I can catch a glimpse."

"Yu'er has grown up." Li Jin approached Tan Muqiu, but stopped three steps away, and said again: "As an emperor, I am most afraid of women's benevolence and indecision."

"That's right." Tan Muqiu said coldly, "My lord has done an extreme job on this point."

"None of you brothers is like Tan Heng." Li Jin said, "He knows what to do and what not to do, when to let go, and when to withdraw."

Two brothers, two brothers.

It turned out that he and Li Yu were really brothers.Although he had guessed it a long time ago, Tan Muqiu still felt a little unbelievable when he got the confirmation from someone else.

"I'm afraid I can't find what the prince is looking for." Tan Muqiu said.

Li Jin sighed and said with a wry smile: "Your brother has never been on guard against others. You must have coaxed him to tell the whereabouts of that thing." Maple Camp is definitely not as simple as a piece of soldier talisman, Hongfeng Camp has always recognized people but not soldier talismans."

Tan Muqiu in the dark smiled slightly, but remained silent.

Li Jin suddenly felt a little uncertain. For the first time in his life, he felt that his nephew had changed, and he couldn't see through it.

"Will you kill him?" Li Jin asked.

"He's dead." Tan Muqiu said.

Li Jin was breathless, then regained his composure, and said, "Although you are stupid, you are not so stupid. You should be clear in your heart, whether you are the emperor or I am the emperor, keep him and Hongfeng Ying, It is all beneficial and harmless.”

For a moment, Qin Muqiu felt that Li Jin actually cared about his own life, but then he secretly said, of course Li Jin cared, but it was because of the Red Maple Camp.

"You said earlier that you want to listen to my conditions, but now I've made up my mind." Tan Muqiu said.

"What is it?" Li Jin asked.

"Temporarily establish Yu Yun as the commander of the Red Maple Battalion, let him take the Red Maple Battalion to leave the Changning Army and return to the northern border of Gubian, and I will give you the throne," Tan Muqiu said.

Li Jin was a little surprised when he heard the words, and asked after a while, "And then?"

Tan Muqiu sneered, and said, "From now on, there will be no two of us brothers in this world. Since we are siblings, we should play a life-and-death relationship anyway." After he finished speaking, he raised his palm and looked at his hands in the dim light , and said: "It is not in vain that the same blood flowed through our bodies."

"Are you crazy?" Li Jin stepped forward and grabbed the other party's skirt, and said angrily, "What are you, threatening me? Or do you want me to beg you?"

"King Ning An gets angry sometimes, it's really rare." Tan Muqiu said, "You can't bear him?" Then his face darkened and he said: "No, you should be reluctant to me, I'm Li Yu, I'm Li Yu... ...I'm Li Yu..."

Li Jin slowly let go of his hand, and said a little dejectedly: "Do you know what I told him when I raised my troops?"

"If you say that Li Yu is a fool, Dayu will be defeated by Li Yu. He will believe everything you say, and he will not hesitate to ask him to die." Tan Muqiu said flatly, "Such a fool deserves his death. "

Li Jin frowned, and said: "He probably knows everything, but he just pretended not to know. He just wanted to be an idler, and it was you and me who got him involved in right and wrong. Yue'er, promise me, Don't do anything stupid, you both can live."

"I'm afraid not." Tan Muqiu said coldly.

Li Jin frowned even tighter, as if he wanted to get angry, but suppressed his anger, and said, "Yu'er, do you remember what you said when you forced Tan Muqiu into the Changning Army seven years ago?"

Tan Muqiu was silent for a moment, and said truthfully, "I don't remember."

"You said that you have already lost your father, and you don't want to lose your elder brother. At that time, you begged in every possible way, which is why I asked His Majesty to bring the Red Maple Camp into the Changning Army and save Tan Muqiu's life." Li Jin said: "You have always grown Love, I know. I am not half as good as you in this regard. "

Incorporating Hongfeng into Chang Ning's army is to save his own life?

Tan Muqiu was stunned for a moment, in his memory, the reason for leaving at the beginning was to prevent the Zhao family from arousing the taboo of the emperor, and it had nothing to do with his own safety.Is there anything I don't know about this?Is it related to your identity?

Qin Muqiu was a little absent-minded, and said: "Didn't you raise your troops for the throne, and I have already promised to give you the throne. The life and death of the two of us has nothing to do with you. Whether I want to kill him or myself, it's all up to me. What are you doing to me?"

When Li Jin heard the words, he became angry immediately, and raised his hand and slapped Tan Muqiu heavily.

Qin Muqiu only felt a burning pain coming from one side of his face, but before he could react, he saw a black shadow flashing, and the short dagger in his hand had already rested on Li Jin's neck.

Tan Muqiu was so frightened by this turn of events, he forgot the pain on his face, he just stared at the man in black holding a short dagger behind Li Jin, the other party didn't say a word, and neither did he.

For a moment, he felt that the dagger in the opponent's hand was about to cut Li Jin's neck, but the opponent never took any action, just looking in the direction of Tan Muqiu in the dark.

After confronting each other for a long time, seeing that the other party didn't seem to intend to make a move, Tan Muqiu said, "Let... let him go."

Hearing this, the man in black put away his dagger, and walked to stand a distance behind Tan Muqiu.Qin Muqiu was taken aback by the other party's sudden action, thinking that the other party was going to wipe his neck with someone else, subconsciously raised his hand to block it, but he didn't expect the other party to just stand behind him, so he put his hand down in embarrassment.

awkward silence...

The two realized that the man in black who suddenly appeared was Li Yu's hidden guard. If Li Jin hadn't been unable to resist just now, the other party would not have appeared rashly.

After a long time, Li Jinxian said, "I will consider your conditions. But..."

"My lord should think about it first, let's talk about it." Tan Muqiu interrupted the other party, and said coldly: "It's easy to go, I won't see you off."

Li Jin stared at Tan Muqiu in the dark for a while, but finally said nothing, and returned the same way.

As soon as the other party left, all the strength in Tan Muqiu's body seemed to be taken away. He barely stood up, and the feeling of loss in his heart slowly spread, gradually engulfing him.

After a long time, the man in black standing behind Qin Muqiu asked, "Your Majesty, will you continue to follow King Ning'an?"

Tan Muqiu slowly recovered after hearing the words, turned his head to look at the man in black for a while, and asked, "Xuan Lin?"

The man in black tore off his face scarf, knelt down on one knee and said, "The minister is here."

Did Li Yu actually send Qilin Guard to monitor Li Jin?No wonder he had never seen another Qilin Guard.

"You don't need to follow him anymore," Tan Muqiu said.Xuan Lin hurriedly responded when he heard the words.

Tan Muqiu took down the lantern on the porch and carried it all the way to his former study. He signaled Xuan Lin to kick the door open, and walked in after the dust gradually settled.

He glanced at the dusty furnishings in the study room, it was the same as when he left that year, untouched.He motioned Xuan Lin to take a candle from the drawer and light it up, the room lit up immediately, and the thick dust became even more invisible.

Tan Muqiu glanced at Xuan Lin, who had no expression on his face, and his black clothes showed a faint dark red under the candlelight, just like Xuan Qi's.If it weren't for the candlelight, it would be hard to notice.

"You go..." Tan Muqiu frowned for a moment and said, "Forget it, you go out first." Xuan Lin retreated after hearing the words.

After staying in the study for nearly a cup of tea, Tan Muqiu came out with a candlestick.He protected the candle with his hands to prevent it from being blown out by the wind, and went straight to the east wing where he used to live.

There are many wines that Zhao Qingming kept here.

He picked up an altar and threw it on the low table, the aroma of wine immediately filled the whole room.

Xuan Lin outside the door heard the sound, stood at the door and reminded: "Your Majesty, be careful of the candlelight."

"It's okay, I'm going to burn this house today." Tan Muqiu replied from inside the door, and then smashed several jars of wine one after another.

There was only the last jar left, Tan Muqiu hesitated for a moment, unscrewed the jar, picked up the cup on the table and poured a glass.

He is not good at drinking, and after a few drinks, he becomes a little drunk.

Half lying on the low table, soaked in wine, he carefully inspected the furnishings in the room, as if he wanted to see if there was anything worth saving before destroying the place.Finally he had to sigh and pour himself another glass of wine.

"Xuan Lin." Tan Muqiu said.

The other party came in after hearing the sound, Qin Muqiu pointed to the half jar of wine and said: "Go and burn the study I went to just now." Xuan Lin should have said so, picked up the wine jar and went out.

Tan Muqiu picked up the candlestick and walked around the room for a week, feeling a sudden feeling of reluctance in his heart.This is his only home in Zhongdu.Originally, he still had a home in Beijun, but now it is gone.If he burns this place, he will lose everything.

Xuan Lin spilled the wine, lit it with a torch, and left the study after confirming that the fire was burning.Then he was startled by the flames coming from another direction, which was the wing room where Tan Muqiu was.
