Chapter 99 Family Letter, Love Letter?
Xie Yuan moved the small table, moved the pen, ink, paper and inkstone back to his tent, picked up the oil lamp on the ground, and put it on the table.Sit down, light the oil lamp, and start staring at the letter paper in a daze.

She is now the head of the corps and also instructs the archers, so she applied to the head of the guard directly to use a tent alone. Although the head of the guard didn't look very good, he finally agreed.

She picked up the pen from the table, pursed her lips and looked at the letter paper for a long time, then stretched out her left hand and rubbed her sore wrist.After kneading, he sighed and dropped it again.

She wanted to write a letter to her family, but she was afraid that the Xie family would follow the source of the letter to find her.Now she doesn't have the confidence at all to persuade her parents to let her work hard in the military camp.

Besides, if they find her and reveal her identity as a girl, she will have no chance to continue.

Xie Yuan thought of this, and touched his forehead in distress... But if he didn't write, the family must be very anxious. Maybe he is still looking for her now, and his mother's health is not very good. know how she is...

Xie Yuan was so entangled, he picked up a pen and wrote a line of words "shua shua" on the paper: parents are here, children please kowtow.

Then it just stopped there...

"Captain Xie!" Lao Fang shouted, lifted the curtain and ran in.Xie Yuan put down his pen, crumpled the letter into a ball, and held it in his hand.

When Lao Fang saw her reaction, he froze at the door of the tent.Then he leaned over excitedly and asked curiously:
"Why? You also write love letters to the little lady you like?"

When Xie Yuan heard this, he raised his head in surprise, and saw that Lao Fang was wrinkled all over his face with a smile, and his eyes were almost gone, watching her hold the paper ball in her hand.

Xie Yuan was speechless, and said angrily: "What love letter do I write, I am writing a letter from home!"

Today, a lot of people asked her to write a letter to greet the girl who is close to her. She also wrote a lot of things like "I miss you, I will marry you when I go back, don't forget me".

While writing, she was surrounded by booing people, so she herself didn't know what was so happy about it, and just kept writing in a serious manner.

"I don't believe it. If it's a family letter and not a love letter... why are you covering it up?! Tell Fang Bo, which one do you like? Is it beautiful?"

He said with a solemn expression, and said worriedly:
"You can't like those women in the red curtains. That's not good, you know? They are just used to coaxing you young people who have never seen the world to be happy, and that can't be taken seriously..."

Xie Yuan had some headaches, he rested his cheeks and turned his head to ignore him, thinking: Hehe... I don't like women, and I get angry when I see those delicate and weak women who want to please men when they see them.

But with her appearance, in Lao Fang's eyes, it seemed that she had acquiesced.

So Lao Fang became even more anxious, pulled her arm, let her look at him, and said:

"Hey, my baby... I heard that there is a girl in the red tent who is asking around for you, isn't it her?"

Xie Yuan was speechless, and said, "Where did you go?...It's really not Fang Bo! What do you want from me?"

Only then did Lao Fang realize that there was something wrong with his hasty arrival, and he said quickly:

"Oh, yes! I forgot the serious business. Didn't the God of Wealth and I go to get winter clothes for us today? We chatted with the commander in the battalion for a while. I asked you about General Shen Qingzhi. Come."

When Xie Yuan heard this, his irritability was swept away, he quickly sat up straight, and looked at Lao Fang expectantly.

Old Fang smiled and said:
"...Our battalion is fighting General Shen's flag, you know that?"

Xie Yuan raised his powerful Danfeng eyes, and said, "Can I not know this? When we first entered the city, the cavalry carried a big banner, so they just passed by like that?"

Lao Fang was originally squatting next to the table, but now he shook his body, sat down cross-legged, stroked his goatee, and said excitedly:

"What you don't know is that the captain of our battalion is the clan brother of General Shen Qingzhi, also surnamed Shen. They are relatives! If you report your master's name, he will not be able to take care of you? This is a good thing what!"

Xie Yuan's originally calm listening expression showed cracks, her eyes flickered, and she said:
"Fang Bo, to tell you the truth, my family disagrees when I come out to join the army. If my master finds out, he will definitely send me home, so I can't say anything."

Lao Fang had heard Xie Yuan say this a long time ago, so he asked: "Since you worshiped General Shen as your teacher, didn't you plan to take this path? It stands to reason that your family should have already planned to let General Shen guide you." You, take you, how can you disagree?"

Xie Yuan kept his mouth shut and didn't speak.

Lao Fang began to think for himself, and after a while he said excitedly: "...I know! It must be because you are arrogant and want to start as a big soldier. Your parents don't agree, right?"

Xie Yuan thought to herself, she really doesn't have such a high spirit.If she is a man, the head of the family is willing to pave the way for her, and she can directly follow the master and lead troops to fight, why not do it?
Why bother running out alone like this, starving and messing around, like a blindfolded blind man, go where he is ordered to go, attack when he is ordered to attack, and don't know anything else, he is just working hard .

What good is that?

It's a pity that she is a girl, and no one will pave the way for her.On the contrary, if she wants to be a general, she has to work hard little by little to prove herself with obvious strength and let others accept her.

Seeing that Xie Yuan lowered his head slightly, pursed his lips stubbornly and still did not speak, Lao Fang gave a disapproving "Ouch" and said:
"Why are you doing this...Silly baby, why don't you take a shortcut?"

Xie Yuan asked him: "What else? About my master Shen Qingzhi? How is his injury? Is it serious?"

The old man replied:
"Hey... Where do the little soldiers under such a small matter go? But what are they talking about... Oh, yes. Speaking of this time, the lieutenant under General Shen betrayed the enemy, not only harming him , and the imperial court suffered a great defeat and lost several cities.

Originally, the imperial court was planning to punish General Shen!If it weren't for the fact that the Shen family has some roots, there are several people in the army in the clan, they have accumulated some contacts, found someone who can talk, and went to the emperor to intercede for him, maybe they would have been beheaded by now . "

Lao Fang sighed, and said: "The captain of this battalion is a brother of General Shen's family. He said that after General Shen was injured, he made some contributions in suppressing the rebellion, and saved it for his brother. He will present it to the emperor and ask for help." Condemn meritorious deeds. No, the wind that blew just yesterday said that General Shen’s official position will be preserved, and he can continue to lead the army after he recovers from his injuries, so as to atone for his meritorious deeds.”

Xie Yuan was terrified when he heard it, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, saying: "Fortunately, fortunately..." Then he asked: "What else did you find out?"
