Chapter 555

"No, it has nothing to do with whether the general is a general or not. I just feel that there are so many gossips, which will damage the general's reputation. Why are you angry at me?" Li Huanshi said aggrievedly.

Sun Tian's lips moved and he was speechless.

When he knew Xie Yuan's identity, it was when Xie Yuan was at a critical moment of life and death.

Many things in this world are not worth mentioning once they are in a relationship with life and death.

At that time, he just felt that such a good person as his general, such a powerful hero, would disappear from the world, regardless of whether she was male or female, he just couldn't bear to part with such a person.

So he quickly accepted the fact that Xie Yuan was disguised as a man.

And when Xie Yuan woke up, he took the initiative to explain to Xie Yuan everything after she was injured.

Before Xie Yuan struggled with how to explain and how to communicate, he took the initiative to say that he didn't care whether Xie Yuan was a man or a woman. In his heart, a general is a general, and this will never change.And promised to help her and keep the secret.

Xie Yuan was very moved at the time, and was even very grateful for Sun Tian's determination.

Glad she didn't have to defend herself.

Because she didn't know how to justify, no one in this world would understand how powerless she was and how much she hated her as a girl.

She doesn't want to admit that she is a girl at all. If she admits it, she has to accept all the worldly concepts that the world requires of women, and all her current pride will become shortcomings.

How can she justify this?

If she works hard to prove that she has reached this point, the world will still not accept her words.What words can she use to justify herself in order to change their minds?
Without it, all angry and unwilling words are pale and powerless.

Thinking of this, Xie Yuanhuai felt panic in his heart.Riding on the horse, she swayed her body gently as the horse advanced, forced herself to show a calm smile, turned her head, and asked Li Huanshi:

"If I were a girl, you wouldn't listen to me?"

Li Huanshi smiled subconsciously and replied:

"How is that possible?"

Xie Yuan smiled, turned his head away and did not speak again.

But Li Huanshi was stunned suddenly, with a "thud" in his heart, he couldn't help reining in the horse, stopped in place, and let the team pass by him.

He looked at Xie Yuan, who was getting farther and farther ahead, and realized that there was a hidden meaning in the conversation. He was stunned and pale, and his whole body was not well...

……

……

Although Eunuch He said that Xie Yuan was a girl in the court hall, because she was too heroic and her abilities were there, some people still couldn't believe it, and instead questioned Eunuch He as maliciously spreading rumors.

Anyway, he is the leader of the Supervision Department. Isn't it normal for the Supervision Department to be dark and treacherous?

So for a while, because of Xie Yuan's identity, there was a lot of discussion in the court and among the market as if it was a joke, and there were endless arguments about everything.

But Xie Yuan was under pressure, as if he had nothing to do with him, and was still diligently busy with military affairs.

Eunuch He saw that the effect he wanted had not been achieved, and he could not let Xie Yuan take off his clothes in public to prove it, so he thought of a way to make Xie Yuan admit it in public.

But how to get her to admit it? ...or, how to convince people of this?

On this day, in the street market opposite the General's Mansion, a high platform was erected at some point.

At the beginning, people thought that there was an opera troupe coming to sing, so word of mouth spread, and soon many people gathered, waiting eagerly for the stage to be set up to watch the opera.

In the end, after the stage was set up, an old man with a white beard came up, wearing a white shirt with large sleeves, he looked like a famous Confucian.

I saw him sitting cross-legged on the seat, holding a book in his hand, and began to chant loudly:
"Since the creation of the world in Pangu, Yin and Yang have been divided. The sky is the godfather, the earth is the mother of Kun, men are yang and women are yin. There is a saying in the Book of Rites: Men don't talk about what's inside, and women don't talk about what's outside. , the way of a concubine..."

People who were waiting to watch the play, when they heard this, immediately understood that this was a great Confucian giving a lecture.

But why is it opened here, and only one great Confucianist is speaking?
Usually, a special venue is set up, and inside it is full of literati and scholars, arguing and arguing to make it lively.

If you argue well, you can be recommended to be an official.

This kind of thing has nothing to do with them ordinary people.

Firstly, they are not allowed to approach at all, and secondly, they are neither literate nor understandable, so they cannot get involved at all.

Seeing that there were no opera singers to watch, everyone shook their heads in disappointment and started to disperse consciously.

The old master on the stage saw that the people who had finally gathered were about to run away, and his eyes behind the books were a little anxious.

He couldn't help feeling the ignorance of the world in his heart. After sighing, he put down what he had written in his hand, stroked his beard, and raised his voice:
"You guys know, who is this hussar general Xie Yuanjie?"

The person who was about to leave heard: Hey, I can understand this, it's about General Xie!
So they turned back one after another.Some people also looked at the General's Mansion not far behind them, felt that it was lively and dangerous, and dragged their partners away.

However, there are still a lot of people who stayed behind, and they surrounded the high platform, all of them raised their necks and waited to hear the words behind them.

The old master raised his face and said with a haughty look:
"This Xie Yuan actually came from the Xie family, a noble family. The Xie family is a famous family that has lasted for hundreds of years. Among them, there are too many people from various dynasties and generations to participate in politics, and there are many high-ranking officials.

Especially in the first few years of the Northern Dynasty, the Xie family was extremely powerful, and Xie Bai was assisting the three generations of Wei emperors, and was highly favored. However, because of the Wei Guoguo history case, the Xie family and many powerful clans in the Northern Wei Dynasty were bloodbathed.

And Xie Yuan's father, Xie Yun, happened to move to Linjiang City before the bloodbath happened, so he escaped the catastrophe. "

Although the people in the audience were illiterate, they still knew that some surnames were born noble enough to be officials.

Hearing the old master's words, he suddenly asked inexplicably:
"This doesn't seem right, right? General Xie is 12 years old. He made military achievements as a soldier and became an official. If he was from the Xie family, he wouldn't need to do this at all. If someone recommends him, he can become an official, right? Why did he want to be a soldier? ?”

The old master on the stage was waiting for this sentence, straightly stroked his beard, and praised with a smile:

"Good question. Because she is a girl..."

The crowd suddenly went into an uproar, discussing with each other in surprise:
"Isn't this a rumor, it's to slander General Xie..."

"I've seen the person before, he doesn't look like a girl. Although he is very handsome, he is so fierce and has killed many people..."

"The King of Hades, the ghost who reminds you, can you be a girl?"

"But a lot of people say that... Listening to the old master's explanation, it makes sense..."

Among the crowd, Zhou Fang, who was dressed in normal clothes and was about to go to Xie Yuan to report on military affairs, stared at the stage dumbfounded, and the whole person fell silent.

In an instant, many buried memories and doubts surged up in his mind, and the overwhelming turbulence finally settled on Xie Yuan's immature and slightly feminine face with a youthful look.

Then, he ran to the general's mansion...
