[Rebirth] General waiting for my return

Qin Muqiu escaped from the other party's warm embrace, and then saw more than 20 pairs of eyes staring at him unblinkingly. After a long time, those soldiers suddenly knelt down on one knee and said, "Tan Shuai."

For a moment, Tan Muqiu felt in a trance that he had returned to before his rebirth.

At that time, he was the commander-in-chief of this tiger and wolf army, and he was one of the most brave generals in Dayu.

Regarding Qin Muqiu's life and death, there were many rumors circulating among the soldiers of the Red Maple Camp.

Some said he was dead.

Some people said that he was captured and his appearance was disfigured in the battle of Guzhou.

Some people said that the person wearing a face scarf on the day of departure with the army was Tan Muqiu.

In any case, most soldiers are willing to believe that he is still alive.

In their hearts, Tan Muqiu did not die so easily.

When everyone saw Tan Muqiu this time, they were secretly surprised, because the appearance of the other party was too similar to that of Qin Muqiu before.It's just that we haven't had time to recognize each other after traveling all the way, so fortunately, the raw rice is cooked.

"Sit down and have a good drink." Tan Muqiu said to everyone.

After hearing the words, everyone sat down in unison, and Zhao Duanwu, who was watching from the side, couldn't help being stunned.

This change happened so quickly, Tan Muqiu and Zhao Qingming looked at each other and couldn't help smiling, thinking that this might be God's will.

The man at the other end drank a few glasses of wine, his mood became more and more high, and he dragged Tan Muqiu to talk endlessly.

It turns out that the name of the head of Yuluo village is Ai Ze.

Ten years ago Aize was a 16-year-old boy.According to the rules of the people of Liangguo, after the age of 16, teenagers will have the opportunity to go hunting alone in the mountains. Only by catching prey and returning to the village alive can they be qualified to become warriors.

Back then, Aize went into the mountains alone and successfully hunted an adult deer.

But on the way back, he accidentally fell into a hunting trap set by the tribe. At that time, his abdomen was pierced by a hunting thorn, and he almost lost his life.Fortunately, he was rescued by Qin Heng later, so he saved his life.

In order to repay Tan Heng's life-saving grace, Ai Ze's father gave Qin Heng the still-cub Hongfeng. The colt was originally prepared as a gift for Ai Ze's coming-of-age ceremony, and it was a rare horse.

Today, Ai Ze recognized Hong Feng at the first sight. He was not sure about it before, but when he saw Qin Muqiu, he was sure that the horse was indeed Hong Feng.

"You look very similar to your father." Qin Zhongyu translated for Ai Ze: "When the headman first saw you, he thought it was an old friend who had returned."

Tan Muqiu's expression darkened, he took a sip of wine, and said, "My father died in battle seven years ago, and he was also fighting against the Liang Kingdom."

After Qin Zhongyu finished explaining to Ai Ze, the other party was quite excited and talked a lot.

"The leader said that it was helpless for the Red Maple Camp to go to war with Liangguo eight years ago. The battle lasted for more than half a year. Later, the two countries signed a contract, promising that the Red Maple Camp would survive for as long as the two countries would not Let's fight again." Qin Zhongyu said: "Since the contract has been concluded, how can the commander die in battle?"

All the people present are pale.

Tan Muqiu's hand holding the wine glass began to tremble involuntarily. Someone just spilled almost half of the wine that was filled.At this time, a pair of big hands took away the wine glass in his hand, and then firmly held his trembling hand.

In fact, the two of them had speculated about this truth, but it was confirmed in an instant, which was still enough to make them confused.

What Ai Ze said again, Qin Zhongyu continued: "When the headman heard the news of the death of the commander of the Red Maple Battalion, he wrote a letter of love to Dayu Chaozhong, pointing out that Shuai Tan's death was unusual, but he didn't get a response .”

Ai Ze looked gloomy, raised his glass and drank the wine, and asked Qin Zhongyu to translate: "When Qin Shuai signed the contract with Liang Guo, Ai Ze had just become the head of Yuluo Village. He and Liang Guo [-] The headmen of the village were all present. Before parting, he asked Tan Shuai about the recent situation of the horse, and your father told him that the horse was given to his eldest son, and also told him that your name is Muqiu."

Qin Muqiu picked up the wine on the table and drank a glass with Ai Ze.

Everyone felt a sense of sadness in their hearts, and they were relatively speechless for a while.

Before the banquet ended, Ai Ze ordered people to arrange accommodation for everyone, and confessed that he would personally lead people back to Dayu's territory early the next morning.

Ai Ze arranged Qin Muqiu in his own bamboo building, Zhao Qingming and Zhao Duanwu lived next to him, and other soldiers were scattered in the vacant bamboo buildings all over the village.

Ai Ze was in a high mood, and after nightfall he dragged Qin Zhongyu to be an interpreter, insisted on talking with Tan Muqiu for a long time with his head shaved and hot, until Qin Muqiu yawned a lot, he reluctantly went back to his room.

Moonlight is like water.

Zhao Qingming stood under a big tree that couldn't be named, and kept looking at the house where Tan Muqiu lived.After a while, a slender figure opened the door and came out.The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his eyes followed the movement of the figure.

"We only chatted for an hour, and I thought you would chat with him until dawn." Zhao Qingming said to the figure that kept approaching.

The visitor couldn't help laughing, raised his hand to touch the other person's cheek, and said, "It's my father's old friend anyway, so I can't refute his face." The person who spoke was Tan Muqiu.

Hearing the words, Zhao Qingming pulled the other party into his arms, and said in a low voice, "Do you want to find out the truth about that?"

Tan Muqiu fell silent in the other's arms for a long time, and said: "It doesn't matter, you and I should have guessed it a long time ago, shouldn't we? Even if we find the culprit now, there is no way to ask the teacher for the crime."

Zhao Qingming raised his hand and gently stroked the other person's head, then heard Tan Muqiu and said again: "In the final analysis, my father was also at fault for this matter. If he hadn't been confused for a while, there wouldn't have been so many disputes."

Zhao Qingming didn't say a word, but hugged him even tighter.

It was late at night, and it was already a bit chilly outside, so the two returned to the bamboo building.

The two walked to the door of Tan Muqiu's room, opened the door and went in, only to find a person sitting cross-legged on the bed. "Hey, I don't know that General Tan has brought someone back. It's really rude." The person who spoke was Qin Zhongyu.

"Why are you here?" Zhao Qingming asked in a deep voice.

Qin Zhongyu had a smile on his face, he couldn't help looking at the other party's hand around Tan Muqiu's waist, and said: "We will part ways tomorrow, and I have a few words with General Tan that I can only say tonight, please don't worry about it, General Zhao." .You two will have plenty of time to cherish in the future."

Zhao Qingming's face was slightly cold, but he heard Tan Muqiu say: "Go back to sleep first, it's almost dawn."

Zhao Qingming hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'm in the yard under the bamboo building." Then he turned and left.

The smile on the corner of Qin Zhongyu's mouth deepened by two points, he stretched out his hand and patted the seat beside him, and said, "General Tan, please sit down, don't be polite."

Tan Muqiu didn't argue, but sat down on a bamboo chair beside him, and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it. If you don't say anything, it will be dawn."

"If you want to know the truth about your father's death, I can tell you." Qin Zhongyu said.

Tan Muqiu's face turned serious, and he said in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

"General Tan, it is safer to discuss who I am later. If I were you, I would first listen to what I would say about your father's death." Qin Zhongyu said.

Tan Muqiu hesitated and remained silent for a long time.

The corner of Qin Zhongyu's mouth curled into a smile, and then he said sadly: "Actually, you have already guessed the general idea, so you are not curious about the truth."

Tan Muqiu glanced at him, neither admitting nor denying, but said, "Speak."

"When your father came to the southwest seven years ago, he knew that he would never go back this trip. The prince is getting older, and it's time to bear the consequences of what he did back then." Qin Zhongyu said.

Tan Muqiu's face was slightly gloomy, and he stared at Qin Zhongyu without blinking.

"The Red Maple Battalion is his personal soldier, so it is impossible to betray him. And the report that was received by the court back then is indeed that Shuai Tan was accidentally shot by a small group of stragglers after signing the contract with Liang Guo and died." Qin Zhongyu said: "He was indeed hit by an arrow, and he was indeed dead. These are all facts."

"It's just..." Qin Zhongyu paused, looked at Tan Muqiu, with a trace of sadness in his eyes, and said, "The stragglers are Dayu's soldiers, and he shot the arrow voluntarily."

Qin Muqiu's face was gloomy, and there was no big fluctuation.

The facts are as he expected.

"If he wants to keep the Qin family, he has no other choice." Qin Zhongyu said.

Tan Muqiu said: "He not only wants to keep the Qin family, he also wants to keep..." He also wants to keep Li Yu.

Qin Zhongyu smiled wryly, and said: "But after so many years, things have returned to the way they should be. Dayu is still the Li family's country, and Hongfengying is still the Qin family's."

Tan Muqiu sighed softly, and said, "It's just a pity that I didn't know that I had a younger brother until I lived for more than 20 years. I often wondered what kind of person he was, but I missed the chance to meet him. Things have not returned to the way they were before, and everyone involved in this incident has lost too much."

Qin Zhongyu's eyes suddenly softened when he heard this.Through the dim candlelight, he looked at Tan Muqiu who was a few steps away, his bottomless eyes shone with unprecedented light.

"Things will always return to the original state." Qin Zhongyu said leisurely: "As long as your wish is strong enough, your thoughts and ideas can be realized."

Tan Muqiu frowned and looked at the other party, seeing that the smile on the other party's face was quite familiar.

He suddenly remembered that he had a dream in which he refused to drink Mengpo soup when he arrived at the Naihe Bridge. He looked up and saw a handsome young man standing on the bridge, looking back at himself with a slight smile. Qin Zhongyu was exactly the same.
