From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 404 Another Traitor
Women are no better than men, and my younger sister Mei Xin is even worse than him. He is not afraid of the cold, but my younger sister is different, especially when she just came to the moon, she really scared him and his father.Hugging my stomach in pain, rolling in cold sweat, my face was completely drained of blood after a day of pain, as if I had died several times.

A female general who shocked the battlefield did not die on the battlefield, but died of pain on the bed because of Yue Xin, no matter how I think about it, I find it funny.And this is what he often used to tease his younger sister when he was young and ignorant. Now that I think about it, it really shouldn't be.

My younger sister was already pale from the pain, and I still laughed at her, which was a bit too much.But fortunately, my younger sister never cares about him, otherwise, judging by the frequency of his wrong words, my younger sister would have hated him to death.

Du Quan was fortunate to have seen a scene that is not easily seen, and smiled and said: "That is to say, the major general has a good temper, and he would have been annoyed by someone else."

Don't you be annoyed, after all, Yuan Muqiu is just a servant in the general's mansion, and he is still in front of so many people, if he had changed, he would have turned his back on him long ago.

People are different, Mei Xin not only doesn't get annoyed and doesn't say a word, but no matter how irritable Yuan Muqiu is and how many words are waiting for her, she remains calm and smiles.Even when eating, he nodded from time to time to indicate that he knew and remembered, but next time there is an emergency military situation, he should do whatever he wants.

The military order is like a mountain, the one who is free in front of the enemy knows whether it is cold or not, and the one who is interested in lying in an ambush in the snow will catch the cold. At that time, all she thought about was killing the enemy, and how to bring back her soldiers without leaving .Therefore, every time Yuan Muqiu was so angry with her that she would die, and when she saw her being hurt or coming to the moon, she was in unbearable pain and would silently shed tears.

She is useless, can't help her, and can't stand the cold and pain for her.Therefore, while being distressed, I felt very guilty and blamed myself, feeling that I had failed to take good care of Mei Xin as entrusted by the general.

In fact, as the housekeeper of the General's Mansion, Yuan Muqiu has been in Liangzhou for many years, doesn't she know that the military order is as dangerous as the mountain battlefield, but what can she do, she just loves Mei Xin who she brought up.

With a long sigh in agreement, Mei Jinze sat down by the brazier, put down the hand warmer in her hand, took a sip of hot tea and said, "She has a good temper, are you joking?"

Take any soldier in the Mei family army who has been trained by Mei Xin, and absolutely no one will say that she has a good temper.Not only has a bad temper, he is afraid of getting angry, let alone those wives who fight and make trouble, those who are not subdued by her.

It's really strange to say that she is usually not seen as fierce when she is at home, but as soon as she arrives at the barracks, her whole person changes.Say what you say, never speak if you can do it, and whoever doesn't train well will train him to death.If you have no temper and no physical strength, you will naturally stop making noise, and you will be obedient.

Smiling without saying a word, Du Quan took off the outermost black cloak and let the others go down to freshen up.After driving all night, the wind and snow did not stop, and even with martial arts protection, their feet were numb from the cold.

Drinking hot tea around the brazier finally warmed up a bit. Mei Jinze poured a cup of tea for Du Quan, motioned him to sit down, and then said: "The godmother can't even take care of her own children in order to take care of her. Hasn't she A mother is better than a mother. You have seen that child really angry with his mother, it is nothing more than filial piety."

Although Yuan Muqiu and his wife used to be servants in their mansion, and they received money for taking care of Mei Xin, but it is rare for her to be so dedicated.Therefore, not only his brother and sister, but also Mei Zhannan was polite to her, treating her like a sister.

Speaking of filial piety, I can't help thinking of Mei Xin's biological mother, Shangguan Xinrou. After learning that she stole someone and gave the general a cuckold, Du Quan was a little worried and said: "In order to prevent the Falcon's arrest letter from being intercepted, the subordinates secretly I sent people back to Beijing. It is a troubled time right now, I just hope that the major general will not panic when he receives the news from his subordinates."

Mei Jinze's disappearance was not a trivial matter, but he did not send any letters on the first day or the second day.Considering Mei Xin's current physical condition and the situation in the capital, he is already very cautious.

Mei Jinze didn't blame him, only blamed himself for being too underestimating the enemy and being hasty, so that he fell into someone else's trap: "How is the bandit suppression in Yixiantian, Prince Heping isn't planning to return to Beijing yet?"

It will be Chinese New Year in two months, and King Yiping's injury will not be able to walk fast on the road at all.Liangzhou is thousands of miles away from the capital, so it's not bad if he can walk there for a month, and if he's rushing back to Beijing for the New Year, he should start soon.

After arranging the eyeliner, Du Quan reported truthfully: "Yesterday, I received news that the suppression of the bandits went well. Not only did they catch a few bandits, but they also found their lairs. It's just that it's difficult to travel in snowy weather. I guess we should wait for the snow to stop. The siege is over. King Ping and the prince want to return to Beijing as soon as possible, but King Ping’s injuries are too serious. The accompanying imperial doctor said that the road is inconvenient, and if the condition worsens, his life may be in danger. The letter urged him to return to Beijing, and he left with a large team early the morning before yesterday."

When mentioning the prince, he remembered the evil deeds he had done. Mei Jinze said with a sneer on his angry face, "Leave? Count him lucky, and send dead men along the way to chase him down. Be sure..."

"Impossible!" blurted out without thinking, Du Quan hurriedly said again: "My lord, calm down, have you forgotten what the young general said before leaving? It's an eventful season, and there is no general in the army, so it's not appropriate to act rashly."

They are the defenders of Liangzhou. Their primary task is to defend the city, to keep the Tartars from approaching Liangzhou city, and to let the people live and work in peace and contentment from the suffering of war.

Knowing that Mei Jinze, the first duty of the Mei family army, did not go his own way, he lowered his brows and pondered for a moment and said, "Do you still remember Yun Cheng? Although the situation this time is different from what my sister encountered last time, but after thinking about it, it is not the same. What a big difference, it can be said that it is changing the soup but not the medicine.”

It was obvious that those men in black were targeting him alone, just like they did with their sister Mei Xin last time.

After being enlightened, Du Quan suddenly realized. After thinking for a while, he slapped his thigh suddenly and said, "It's true, I'm going to check the guards right now, and I'll definitely find out the traitor."

He knew about Yun Cheng's fate, but he didn't expect that there would be traitors hiding in the barracks after clearing them out, and they were under his command.

"Mmm," Mei Jinze ordered: "The general is not here, so don't make a big noise, so as not to disturb the morale of the army. In addition, you go to prepare, and we will return to the camp in the afternoon."

With his father not here and his sister not here, the military affairs cannot be completely handed over to others, he has to see it himself.And in order to prevent someone from taking advantage of the loopholes again, he must sit in the barracks, only in this way can he feel at ease.
