Rebirth of a Star General - Chapter 239
Chapter 239
The dungeon was very damp, with blood and stains remaining on the ground. He Xinying sat in the corner with her knees hugged, looking at the black bug crawling under the dry grass, and couldn’t help but fight a cold war.
It’s too cold here, and no one cares about her. She grew up spoiled and spoiled, and when did she suffer such grievances. But the jailer here ignored her. He Rufei and Xu Zhiheng were not locked in with her. She didn’t know where they were, and at the beginning, she didn’t know what happened.
It wasn’t until the jailer here started chatting and mentioning the matter on the Tianxing Platform today, when He Xinying recalled what Liuer had said to her before being arrested, she slowly recollected it.
Her dead eldest sister was the real General Feihong. For so many years, He Rufei and He Yan have been using each other’s identities, and after He Yan entered the capital, He Rufei risked his merits and drowned He Yan in the pond of Xu’s family in order to eliminate the troubles.
No wonder, no wonder she always feels cold every time she passes by the pond in the yard. It’s no wonder that Xu Zhiheng has to search for He Yan’s relics in the yard where He Yan used to live.
Xu Zhiheng…Does he know this too? Still, he was also a member of the executioner in this matter. He Xinying felt cold all over.
It was Fengyun General Xiao Huaijin who revealed the truth. When she was in Yuhua Temple earlier, her mother would take the initiative to speak when she saw Xiao Huaijin. Thinking of Madam He, He Xinying felt another heartache.
Does Mrs. He also know this from beginning to end? When the uncle made such a request, didn’t my father speak out to stop him? He Rufei ordered He Yan to be drowned. Did his father understand but did not speak out, or did he not know at all? He Xinying hopes to be the latter, but in her heart, she feels that it is very likely to be the former.
She leaned weakly against the wall, only feeling that looking back for a long time, it seemed like a joke. He thought that his father who loved him was a person who could ignore the family relationship for the sake of profit. He thought that the marrying prince was concealing evil intentions and thought that the majestic and majestic eldest brother could bring blessing to the family. goods. In the end, the home is gone, the mother is gone, and the eldest sister is no longer there. She is alone here, full of bleakness.
The crime of deceiving the emperor is a capital crime, and it is head-off. He Xinying whispered, nothing more, she died when she died. Originally in this world, she had nothing to miss. After death, it is a good thing to be able to be reunited with my family under Jiuquan.
Just thinking about it, suddenly, someone’s footsteps came. He Xinying looked up and saw a jailer walking behind a strange man.
The two walked to the door of He Xinying’s cell. The jailer opened the door and said to He Xinying: “Miss He, please.”
He Xinying was startled: “Where to go?”
“Your Majesty is kind, I am grateful for General Feihong’s contribution to the suppression of Xiqiang, and died of grievances. Ms. He is General Feihong’s sister and sister. Your Majesty is open to the public. But in the future, he will be demoted to a commoner, leaving Miss He’s life. From today onwards, Miss He will do it. Don’t stay here anymore.”
It took a long time for He Xinying to understand what the jailer meant. She stood up slowly and walked out the door, following the two men out of the prison.
The night outside was heavy, she was thinly dressed, standing alone, suddenly freed, but she didn’t know where to go next. The He family and Xu family were gone, the sky was so big that there was no place for her.
He Xinying lowered her head and smiled bitterly, muttering to herself, “Where else can I go.”
“Miss He.” Someone behind him said.
He Xinying looked back and saw that it was the man who had come with the jailer just now. He was like a guard of some family, and he only said to He Xinying: “If Miss He has nowhere to go, you can go to a place to hide for now. .”
“Where?” He Xinying asked.
“Sister Ling used to study in Xianchang Pavilion when she was young, and Wei Xuanzhang, director of Xianchang Pavilion, had a friendship with Sister Ling. After learning the truth, she felt sympathy for Sister Ling. If Miss He has nowhere to go, she can go to Mr. Wei first. At home. Mr. Wei has stayed in the academy for many years, and there is only his wife at home.”
He Xinying was taken aback.
After a while, she laughed herself mockingly: “It turns out that the eldest sister is dead, and she is still blessing me…”
“Please lead the way, son.” She said. Now that the Hexu family is in trouble, you don’t have to think about it, and you know that those relatives and friends in the past were afraid of getting involved and avoided them like snakes and scorpions. At this time, no one dared to take them in. She hasn’t figured out what to do next, but first she has to find a place to sit down and thoroughly figure out all the things she doesn’t understand.
She really has nowhere else to go.
…
Xu Zhiheng and He Rufei in prison didn’t notice the incident that He Xinying was taken out.
The detentions were held separately to avoid collusion of confessions between the two. He Rufei couldn’t see Xu Zhiheng, and Xu Zhiheng couldn’t see He Rufei, but it was a good thing for the two of them. It was really necessary to keep the two of them in one place. I was afraid that they would fight right away.
Xu Zhiheng hates He Rufei for dragging him down, He Rufei hates Xu Zhiheng on the Tianxing Platform, and can’t wait to throw all the stigma on him whenever something happens.
After all, because of the alliance of interests, he is as thin as paper. As long as the wind blows and the rain drips, he will be completely different.
He Rufei was sitting in the corner of the prison. Even at this time, he did not give up, still thinking about his plan to escape. Xu Xiang’s people will certainly not sit idly by, and if they want to save Xu Jingfu, they may be able to pull him too. The worst possibility is that Xu Jingfu abandons the car to protect the handsome, but he still has evidence of Xu Jingfu’s collaborating with the enemy and treason. If Xu Jingfu wants to leave him alone, how can it be possible?
The Tianxingtai incident was beyond his expectation. He didn’t expect the woman named He Yan to be so powerful, and he didn’t expect that Xiao Jue already had so much evidence in his hands, forcing him step by step to a path where he couldn’t look back.
He Yan… Thinking of that woman, He Rufei’s eyes flashed a shadow.
What is the relationship between that woman and his dead cousin? He Rufei didn’t know. He had never seen He Yan’s heroic posture on the battlefield, because when he returned to Shuojing, He Yan had quickly dressed up as his daughter. Therefore, he had only heard all the legends about “General Feihong” and had not seen it with his own eyes. In his opinion, the dead He Yan, his cousin looked like a stronger woman than ordinary women.
Others say that General Feihong is extremely skilled, but he doesn’t believe it. They say that General Feihong is ten on the battlefield, but he doesn’t believe it either. The reason for not believing is actually very simple, because he can’t do it, he can’t do it, and it’s even more impossible for He Yan to be a woman.
Until that match on the Tianxing platform.
He Rufei closed his eyes, and a gloomy feeling arose in his heart.
If the real He Yan is alive, does it look like this when he uses a sword? But how could she be alive, she would never be alive!
In the quiet prison, there was the sound of footsteps. He Rufei was locked in the closest room. He listened carefully to the footsteps getting closer and closer, getting closer and closer, until he stopped in front of him.
The jailer unexpectedly opened the prison door.
He Rufei raised his head and looked at the person coming.
The young man in black gazes over him coldly, seeming to be stingy and waste an extra moment on him. He stood, He Rufei sat, invisibly, as if to show that he was inferior.
“I don’t know what’s the cause for Governor Xiao coming here?” He Rufei sneered, “Isn’t it here to kill people?”
Before Xiao Jue could answer, he opened his mouth again: “Actually, I don’t understand, how did Governor Xiao know about this?”
If it is said that Mother Qin, Xu Zhiheng leaked the wind, but Xiao Jue immediately guessed the reason, and started collecting evidence long ago. Even if he thought about it now, He Rufei couldn’t understand it. After all, other things aside, just use the fact that “General Feihong is a woman” to tell others, others will only think that he is talking nonsense.
Why did Xiao Jue know?
The young man looked at him indifferently and said coldly: “How do you think I knew?”
“I don’t know,” He Rufei stared at the person in front of him, and suddenly smiled. He leaned against the wall and said unhurriedly: “I heard that you and my dead sister used to go to school at the same place. Let me Think about it, maybe you have had an affair with her. Is it because you are treating me like this for my sister to get ahead?” He grinned, his face became a little distorted, “Is there anyone in the world who really likes me? That renegade sister, what is so good about her, she doesn’t look like a woman at all…”
Before he finished speaking, he felt a pain in his chest and flew out suddenly, hitting his back against the rock wall, holding him back to spit out blood.
Xiao Jue’s kick didn’t stop, and He Rufei couldn’t recover from being kicked for a while. The jailer had already received the news and retreated outside, turning a blind eye to the situation inside.
Also, if Xu Jingfu falls, no one among the ruling and the opposition can stop Xiao Jue. At this juncture, no one dared to offend the right army captain.
He Rufei wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at Xiao Jue, and laughed slowly.
General Feng Yun, Wei’s jade-faced captain, is so mighty and heroic. Just standing here makes people unable to look away, and no one can rob him of the limelight. If He Yan hadn’t changed everyone’s destiny back then, perhaps he would never have an intersection with Xiao Jue in his entire life.
But it happened.
“Why are you all so angry,” He Rufei sneered, “Everyone is fighting for my sister, but what about me,” his voice suddenly raised: “What about me! What about my life! Isn’t it important? Should it be? Give a lifetime for her damn stupid decision! Why, I also have what I want to do, do you think I really want to be this general?” His eyes were red, like a mad beast, to tear everything apart, “Who wants to be this general? Ah, who wants to be!”
He Rufei has no longer lived in He Mansion as far as he can remember. He lives in the distant Zhuangzi. He knows that he is not in good health, and he also knows that he and his cousin exchange identities. He can’t go too far, and he can’t be away from people around him. Sometimes He Yuansheng and his wife would secretly visit him, but they always leave in a hurry.
The doctor asserted that he would not survive a few years, but he did not know if he was fate, so he survived year after year. Later, when he was sixteen years old, his body was completely healed, and he thought he could leave Zhuangzi, return to the He family, and become a son of He Da, but at that time there was news that He Yan was on the battlefield and he could not come back temporarily.
He Rufei was forced to stay on Zhuangzi.
He also secretly prayed in his heart that He Yan never die on the battlefield, not because of his brother-sister relationship, nor because of his kind heart, but because He Yan is holding his identity, if He Yan dies on the battlefield. Come on, he, Young Master He, will never be able to return to the He family.
Fortunately, He Yan is back.
Originally, during those many years, He Rufei didn’t have too much emotion towards He Yan, neither like nor hate. Until the day he returned to the He family, He Yan had just returned to the house and did not see him. The soldiers and horses outside surrounded the young lieutenant in the middle. She was wearing a mask, standing in the sunshine, open and hearty, her sword beautiful He was sharp, the horse was vigorous and docile. Although he couldn’t see his face, his eyes were as bright as stars.
He Rufei’s heart suddenly felt a bit of resentment.
For so many years, he has been living a shameful life on Zhuangzi. He thought He Yan was the same as himself, but when he really saw it, he realized that it was completely different. She used her own identity to live such a happy life, why? She decided the fate of others without authorization, and then returned the arranged fate to her own hands.
Why?
He Rufei’s heart is very complicated. On the one hand, he hates to accept the fate that He Yan has chosen, such as being a military commander, but on the other hand, when he stands in the Golden Temple, he accepts the emperor’s reward, courtiers or envy or jealousy. When you look at it, you will have satisfaction in your heart.
But this kind of satisfaction always humiliates him, because He Rufei is very clear that the praise and good name belong to He Yan, not to him. Whenever he heard those people from behind praising General Feihong for how brave and invincible he was on the battlefield, his heart was particularly tormented. This bit of torment finally gave rise to anxiety, and his anxiety made him uneasy. Even if He Yan got married, he did not solve this heart disease.
Just as he stole a beautiful gem, he was proud of owning it, and he accepted the envy and desire of everyone, but he was worried that one day the owner of this gem was not himself.
The evil thoughts grew bigger and bigger, until one day, he thought, it would be better if He Yan died. As soon as this thought appeared, He Rufei realized that he actually calmed down.
He found a way to understand the disease of determination.
Broken wings can only prevent General Feihong from flying into the sky, but Feihong is still a Feihong. It is better to tear off the bird from the sky, drown in the water, and bury it in the soil. No one will find the trace of this bird again in the future. .
He finally calmed down.
But why, not long after the peaceful days, people can’t wait to interrupt.
“Lying.” The young man’s voice was calm and his eyes were as cold as water. “You really want to be General Feihong, but you don’t dare to admit it.”
As if being peeked into the secret deep in his heart, He Rufei suddenly raised his head: “I don’t have one!”
“you have.”
He Rufei gritted his teeth, the man’s eyes were light, but he was embarrassed. He clenched his fists and tried to stand up: “Tell me, is she He Yan?”
“If I say yes,” the young man looked down, and the silver crown drew a cold light under the dark lights of the prison, “what do you do?”
“I don’t believe it.” He Rufei couldn’t help but tremble, not knowing whether it was hatred or fear, he said: “I don’t believe every word you say.”
But in fact, he had some faith.
Those inexplicable coincidences were familiar with the terrain of the He family, the secret grid in the study, the secret of Linglong Xia… and the “big brother” on the Tianxing platform.
The two of them were born at the same place on a certain night many years ago, so their fate was forced, coincident, and entangled, like two intertwined vines, drawing nutrients from each other. If he wants to live, he has to pull out the vine beside him. The so-called twins bring not dependence and trust, but betrayal and enemies.
He Yan lives in the sun, and he has to be in the dark. If he wants to walk in front of people openly, he must uproot the person in the sun.
He did a good job… He Rufei laughed miserably.
At this moment, an inexplicable relief was born.
He didn’t know whether he was jealous or resentment He Yan, but at this moment, he suddenly realized that what he hated was actually the feeling of being a substitute. Others are looking at you, but they are looking at another person. When others are thinking of you, they are also thinking of another person. How ridiculous, how sad.
The shadow killed the master, but the shadow is still the shadow. In his life with He Yan, whether he was He Yan’s substitute or He Yan was his substitute, no one can say clearly. Is he He Rufei or He Yan? No one can answer him.
What if he and He Yan didn’t exchange identities at the beginning?
If at the beginning, he was the eldest son of the He family, and each had chosen their own path, what would he look like now?
He Rufei gradually laughed, laughing louder and louder, and burst into tears at the end of the laugh. He was pushed all his life and moved forward involuntarily, and perhaps only at the last moment of his life could he be freed. However, what was left to “He Rufei” was also a notorious deception.
“Xiao Huaijin,” he raised his head and looked at the person in front of him, “I assume she is He Yan, you find me out at all costs, isn’t it just for her to stand for her? You want my life, okay, take it “Go ahead,” he opened his hands, as if he was just grabbing, “After all, this is just my grievance with her. What’s the matter with you?”
Xiao Jue walked up to him, looked at him quietly, and suddenly reached out and grabbed his neck. The young man’s fingers were white, but he seemed to be able to crush his bones alive.
He Rufei was strangled out of breath, staring at the opponent, trying to sneer.
“What’s the matter with me?” Xiao Jue asked slowly.
He stared at He Rufei with his dark pupils, like a dark storm, and said every word: “I Xiao Jue coaxed the rescued girl for the first time in this life, and was drowned alive by you. You say, and What am I doing?”
He Rufei struggled desperately, but the hand tightened tighter and tighter. His eyes rolled up, kicking his leg, and a great fear floated from his heart. He knew that he was about to die on this person’s hand.
But the next moment, the hand holding his throat suddenly loosened, and He Rufei hugged his neck, and the screen coughed.
“I won’t kill you.” Xiao Jue stood up, turned his back to him, and said coldly: “Because you are not worthy.”
After that, he left He Rufei, who was still covering his throat and panting, and strode away.
…
When He Yan woke up early in the morning, the snow outside had stopped.
Qingmei called Chiwu in the yard: “Chiwu guard, don’t add firewood. The fire is too big and the medicine doesn’t cook well.”
Chiwu silently picked out a few pieces of firewood with iron tongs.
Lin Shuanghe is a man after all, and it is difficult to stay in the He family all the time, besides, the He family really has no extra room for him to live in. The medicine for this morning was fried by the green plum. He Yunsheng and He Sui went out early in the morning, and Qingmei caught fire with a fan. She was a little dull, who was always lively.
It was the same with He Yan and Fan Cheng at the time. After they came back, they suffered a serious illness. Although He Sui also invited the doctor, the doctor also prescribed medicine, but He Yan drank a bowl of it, but his body did not improve, but instead he got more and more. Worse. At that time, Qingmei thought that He Yan might not be able to live, but then miraculously improved, she still thought that maybe his wife is alive in the sky. Now He Yan actually fell ill again.
Although the white-robed saint Doctor Lin said it was fine, Qing Mei was always a little worried.
Seeing her absent-minded appearance, Chi Wu thought for a while and comforted: “Don’t worry, Young Master Lin said it’s okay, Miss He will definitely be fine.”
“More than that,” Qingmei sighed. “When I went to the house to change the water in the morning, I saw the girl crying in her dreams. Back then…the same was true. How could this be the case if the girl wasn’t sad? Yesterday Tianxingtai Didn’t the girl compete with that general Feihong with a sword? Why did it happen? Chiwu guard, do you know what happened?”
Chiwu shook his head. Regarding He Yan, there are too many doubts that are incomprehensible. However, Xiao Jue wouldn’t let them check, so naturally they would not deliberately check.
“The master and the young master were also very worried yesterday. I really hope the girl gets better soon.” Qingmei said.
The two of them did not deliberately lower their voices, and He Yan’s ears were superb, so he heard their conversation clearly. She was stunned for a while. The woman in the dream had completely disappeared from her sight. There was a flourishing stove in the room, and beside the desk, there was a small white porcelain bowl. In the small bowl, there was a bowl full of candied fruit.
The candied fruit was red and sweet. She stretched out her hand slowly, picked up one in her hand, and looked at it for a while before putting it into her mouth.
Sweet makes the mouth bitter.
Qingmei came in with the medicine and pushed the door in. Seeing He Yan woke up, she was startled, and then smiled with joy: “The girl is awake, what discomfort does her body have?”
“fine.”
“That’s good.” Qingmei put the medicine bowl on the desk, and saw the small bowl with candied fruit next to her, and smiled: “This is the place where the slave and maidservant were placed here by the Governor. After drinking the medicine, remember to take two capsules in your mouth.”
He Yan lowered his head and smiled: “Okay.”
Qingmei felt that her girl was a little strange, but she couldn’t tell what was strange, so she moved a stool and sat before the collapse, babbling He Yan not to catch the cold.
Sunlight came in from the window, and the room was a little bit lively inexplicably, He Yan looked out the window, watched, lowered his head, and hid the tears in his eyes.
everything is over.
