The general is easy to bully

Xiao Qihan stared at him for a while, and said, "You don't need to know so much."

Shen Xingfeng was startled, then lowered his head slightly.

Xiao Qihan said: "You just need to live here with peace of mind. If you want to eat whatever you want, you can tell the servants that the Hou's mansion is very big, so don't run around. I'll let someone set up a Cuju field behind this yard. If you feel bored Alright, you can go around."

Shen Xingfeng hesitated: "Can I eat delicious food?"

"Yes, you can eat whatever you want."

Xiao Qihan explained to him a few more words before leaving.

Ming Lan was packing things in the study, "Master, this is a gift from the royal concubine in the palace."

Ming Lan is holding a jade pendant.

The jade is transparent and bright, with a cool touch, it is made of high-quality jade material.

Xiao Qihan returned the jade pendant to Minglan: "Give it to Xingfeng, he has liked jade since he was a child."

Ming Lan's complexion was a bit unnatural.

Xiao Qihan seemed to think of something again, "Oh yes, last time Jade Blood Villa sent a sword?"

Ming Lan nodded: "Yes, it's called Dong Ren, master, you don't use the sword, so you put it away."

Xiao Qihan nodded: "I also gave it to Xingfeng, Yuxin is a sword he got when he was young, it's a bit too light."

Ming Lan nodded thoughtfully.

Holding the jade pendant in his hand, he frowned and left the study.

Marquis...

This is treating that impostor as Shen Xingfeng, so you want to make it up to him?

Knowing that he is not that Shen Xingfeng, but still like this, Lord Hou... probably has reached the limit of patience.

The army is about to go out, and Xiao Qihan spends more and more time in the study.

Ming Lan came in with a cup of hot tea.

"Master Hou, this is what Mr. Xingfeng asked me to give you, saying that it can refresh your mind."

Xiao Qihan's writing hand froze slightly.

The eyes were confused for a moment, and then gradually became a little bit more joyful.

He put down his pen, and carefully took the teacup Ming Lan handed over, with a trembling voice, Nannan: "It was Xingfeng who gave it to me, Xingfeng..."

He was holding the cup of tea, his eyes were shimmering, and he held it tightly in his palm like a treasure.

Ming Lan never liked Shen Xingfeng.

He even had the idea of ​​letting him die.

But at this moment, he suddenly hoped that the real Shen Xingfeng would come back alive.

Just a person with "same name and surname" is enough to make Xiao Qihan fall into the vortex of self-deception and paralysis. He doesn't know that after this expedition, all his plans will be completed. This 22-year-old man will How to live a long life in the future without Shen Xingfeng.

Xiao Qihan hurriedly asked Minglan: "Did he say anything else?"

"He said that Lord Hou must cherish himself when he is marching and fighting outside."

Xiao Qihan nodded: "Okay, I know."

Ming Lan: "Master Hou, won't you go see him? He said he wants to see Master Hou."

The light in Xiao Qihan's eyes suddenly dimmed.

"Can't see, can't see."

See you, and all your dreams will be shattered.

Two days later, Xiao Qihan led an army of [-] cavalry and set off to the northern border again.

In the hot summer, the soldiers were restless, and the speed of the army going north was extremely slow.

At noon, when it was hottest, Xiao Qihan ordered the soldiers to stop where they were and to rectify and rest.

He asked Ming Lan to get a pen and paper, and wrote two letters home.

One for Shen Jun and the other for Shen Xingfeng.

"Xingfeng, I passed by Dongliu Town today, do you still remember this place? When you were 12 years old, the general praised me in front of other people for being more sensible than you. You were so angry that you left home in the middle of the night. I ran away and told the general to recognize me as my son. No matter how much I persuaded you, you refused to listen. You walked alone for two or three days, and finally settled in Dongliu Town..."

As Xiao Qihan wrote, the corners of his eyes were full of gentle light, and the corners of his lips curved slightly. Xiao Qihan continued to write: "As a result, on the same day, someone stole all your money. If you were so angry, you would report it to the police. Who knows?" They colluded with officials and gangsters and completely ignored you. You just said that there are troublesome people in poor mountains and rivers, and there are wilderness outside the capital, so you dragged me back home that night."

Xiao Qihan couldn't help laughing.

Ming Lan walked over and took a look. He had never studied and didn't know many words, but he did know Shen Xingfeng's name.

Ming Lan said: "Master, are you thinking about the past with Mr. Xingfeng?"

Xiao Qihan nodded: "Well, it's all about my childhood."

"What was Master Xingfeng like when he was a child?"

Xiao Qihan thought about it carefully: "He is a very complicated person. He is very smart, but sometimes he will deliberately pretend to be stupid to tease you. Although he usually does naughty things, but when it comes to big things, he is very measured... ...he's... the nicest guy I've ever met."

When they returned from Dongliu Town, the Shen family was frantically looking for them.

Shen Xingfeng threw himself into Mrs. Shen's arms and cried, saying that it was Xiao Qihan who abducted him, he was scared to death, afraid that he would never see his father and mother again.

Although he was out of breath from crying, no one in the Shen family believed him.

Everyone knew very well about his stomach full of black ink. He was tied up by the general, pressed on a chair, and whipped a few boards.

He was punished to go to the training ground to practice long sword for half a month.

Xiao Qihan slowly folded the letter paper, sealed it, and handed it to Ming Lan: "Go, hand it to him, and bring any reply he wants."

"Don't worry, Lord Hou."

With the two letters in her pocket, Ming Lan quickly disappeared from Xiao Qihan's sight.

Floating all the way, he rushed back to the Hou's Mansion in less than half a day.

He first delivered the letter to Shen Jun, then turned to look for Shen Xingfeng.

Shen Xingfeng and Wei Xuan were listening to people singing in the courtyard.

He was really bored in this courtyard, so he invited someone to hire a troupe to sing for him and Wei Xuan, which was quite interesting.

Ming Lan frowned, and stepped forward to send the troupe away.

He was a little displeased, "From now on, don't ask opera singers to enter the mansion again."

Shen Xingfeng was a little puzzled: "Why?"

"Because Mr. Xingfeng doesn't like listening to operas."

Shen Xingfeng was even more confused; "I don't understand what you mean..."

Ming Lan sneered: "Do you know why Master Hou brought you to the mansion? Is it just because he saw you and your friends begging on the road, and he showed kindness for a while?"

Shen Xingfeng's face turned pale.

Ming Lan's face was condensed: "It's because of your name."

"name?"

"The person Hou Ye likes has the same name and surname as you. You can enter the mansion because you took advantage of that Shen Xingfeng."

Shen Xingfeng's eyes widened, filled with disbelief.

Ming Lan continued: "Master Hou hardly ever comes to see you, which is the best proof, because apart from the name Shen Xingfeng, you have nothing in common with him."

Shen Xingfeng's face suddenly turned ugly, and there was no trace of blood left.

Ming Lan took two steps forward, he was much taller than Shen Xingfeng, with a condescending aura overwhelmingly pressing down on him.

"You like Master Hou?"

Ming Lan asked.

Shen Xingfeng was taken aback for a moment, his face turned red immediately, and he hesitated for a long time.

Ming Lan walked straight into the room, and after a short while, took out some calligraphy and paintings, and placed them on the stone table in front of Shen Xingfeng.

"This is……"

"That Shen Xingfeng wrote it."

Shen Xingfeng was startled, then picked up a piece of paper in front of him, and slowly spread it out.

There are a few lines of strong and powerful words on it——

"The shadow of the candle on the mica screen is deep, the long river gradually falls and the dawn stars sink."

Ming Lan asked him: "Can you read?"

Shen Xingfeng nodded: "Yes, I have studied for several years."

Minglan said in a deep voice: "It's good if you recognize it. I've already told you why Master Hou kept you. Since you like Master Hou, you naturally want to stay by his side longer. Counterfeit goods have to look like counterfeit goods. What should you do?" What, you don’t need me to teach you, do you?”

Ming Lan handed him the letter in his hand, "I'll leave tomorrow."

Shen Xingfeng took it in fear and trepidation, "I'll give it a try."

It shouldn't be difficult just to imitate that Shen Xingfeng's handwriting.

Ming Lan brought Ah Fu and Long Che back.

They knew the real Shen Xingfeng, let them teach him, maybe this fake would make Lord Hou feel better.

Two days later, Shen Xingfeng handed the reply letter to Ming Lan.

Ming Lan compared the handwriting of the two, and nodded in satisfaction: "Very good."

Shen Xingfeng was a little embarrassed: "Ah Fu told me some of Shen Xingfeng's usual way of speaking, and I tried my best to imitate it."

Ming Lan put away the letter and stuffed it into his sleeve, "There should be more letters coming in the future, you can figure it out yourself. If you want to stay with Lord Hou for a longer time, you have to work harder."

"I know."

After Ming Lan left, Ah Fu and Long Che also left.

It seems that this Hou's mansion is a hellish mansion, and he doesn't want to stay for a moment.

Wei Xuan murmured in Shen Xingfeng's ear: "I thought Lord Hou liked you, but I just used you as a substitute."

Shen Xingfeng hummed: "He's dead anyway! He won't come back!"

"But your real name isn't Shen Xingfeng."

Wei Xuan smiled, "Don't you think Goudan's name is ugly, so you used his name."

Three months ago, they met two teenagers in a village at the foot of the mountain outside the city.

One of them was dying, as if he would die at any moment.

He was wrapped tightly in a big cotton jacket by another charming-looking man.

He and Wei Xuan thought it was interesting, so they ran over to talk to them.

Even the phrase "the stars last night and the wind last night" was heard from the dying young man.

At that time, he was thinking, how could there be such a beautiful name in the world, which is millions of times better than the dog egg his father gave him.

From then on, he regarded himself as Shen Xingfeng, but unexpectedly, he was lucky enough to be taken to Ningyuanhou's mansion and lived a life without worrying about food and drink.

Wei Xuan dragged his chin: "Tell me, is it him who Master Hou is looking for?"

Goudan snorted again, "Anyway, he's going to die, maybe he's already dead, so what's the matter with him?"

Wei Xuan: "God, you don't really like Lord Hou, do you? But Lord Hou doesn't love you."

Goudan was displeased: "He doesn't love him now, but it doesn't mean he won't love him in the future. Anyway, he likes Shen Xingfeng. My name is Shen Xingfeng now. When I become Shen Xingfeng, he will naturally fall in love with me."

"Then what if Shen Xingfeng didn't die and came back?"
