From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 71

Mei Xin, who was about to leave at dusk, received the news that the prince was assassinated and King Ping was seriously injured. When she learned that King Ping's three legs were all disabled, she couldn't help laughing.

Not very happy but very relieved, especially remembering the calculations that King Ping had done to her in the previous life, the smile on the corners of Mei Xin's lips deepened.Speaking of it, I really want to thank him, if he didn't want to kill the prince, she would not have found a chance to do it, and she couldn't fish in troubled waters easily and get her hands in the chaos.

Turning the east bead string in her hand, Mei Xin stroked each bead on it back and forth, while playing with it, she said lightly: "The two sons were seriously injured at the same time, and it was the bandits who robbed them. If this matter is reported to the capital, Long Yan will be furious." The suppression of the bandits is just around the corner, and it is imperative, you tell him to be careful, so that no one will find out. In addition, immediately tell the prince about this, so that he will not act rashly."

"Flying birds are exhausted, good bows are hidden, cunning rabbits are dead, and lackeys are cooked. The military achievements of the Mei family are already high enough, and there is no need to add icing on the cake. The son is not a god, let alone an undefeated general. It is normal to lose a battle once in a while. There is no need to kill all those bandits." How can we catch all the prey before winter comes, and if all the prey are killed, what should the hunter do for a living.

Du Quan, who was standing outside the carriage, understood it and remembered it all. He cupped his hands and saluted, "Yes, Major General!"

Gently raising a corner of the curtain, Mei Xin looked at Du Quan and said, "Brother is impatient, you should persuade me more on weekdays, write to me immediately if you have something to do, and always beware of people who deliberately approach him, especially women."

King Ping dared to set her up, so he could naturally trick her elder brother.Therefore, she had to be on guard, and even more so had to keep those around him vigilant.

Du Quan used to be Mei Zhannan's lieutenant general, and he was also brought out by himself. He has all kinds of thoughts and methods and is very loyal.Understanding the seriousness of it, he said: "Major General, please rest assured that your subordinates will definitely protect the son and never give anyone a chance."

Mei Xin naturally believed him, otherwise she wouldn't have told him so clearly.Nodding her head, she went on to say: "I have my own arrangements for my brother's marriage. During the period when my father and I are away, please trouble Uncle Quan to keep an eye on him so that no one can get caught. My brother is kind-hearted and empathetic. , will inevitably not be used by others, and I will leave everything to Uncle Quan."

The word "Uncle Quan" pressed down on him like Mount Tai, and Du Quan instantly felt that he had a heavy responsibility.Of course, he was also very happy, because no matter whether it was the major general, the eldest son or the great general, he was regarded as one of his own.Without saying a word, he patted his chest to assure, he said firmly: "Young general, don't worry, even if I die, I will never let anyone hurt your son."

A gentleman keeps his promises, and a man in the northwest is even more spitting and nailing. Mei Xin said: "Okay, then let's say goodbye, Uncle Quan, have a good journey!"

"Young General, take care!" Saluted again, Du Quan's eyes were full of distress, the general was unconscious, the son was brave but not resourceful, the current predicament of the Mei family could only be solved by the young general.

17 years old, the same age as Hua'er, only two years older than his daughter, but Mei Xin's responsibilities are something her daughter or no woman in the world can bear.

Let alone a woman, even a strong man may not be able to bear it.

He practiced martial arts at the age of three, entered the military camp at the age of eight, and made military achievements in the battlefield at the age of 12. Others don't know how much suffering Mei Xin has endured, how much effort he has put in, and how many setbacks and hardships he has experienced, but he has seen it with his own eyes.The little girl was born stubborn, and she cried in pain and refused to give up, shedding tears while swallowing them in her stomach.

The general was trembling with distress, many times he didn't even dare to look at her, and at first he thought she wouldn't be able to last for a few days, but who would have thought that day after day, year after year, the little girl who was wiping her tears and striding forward grew up. up.

He has grown into an indomitable man, the backbone of the Mei family, the backer of hundreds of thousands of people in Liangzhou, and the leader of an army that makes the enemy fearful.

She is a well-deserved major general, and her official rank of third rank was also bought with her own blood.The promotion and wealth of the Mei family never relied on Zu Yin, but on themselves. It was the illustrious military exploits they made after a narrow escape, and it was their unchanging loyalty.

With a slight smile, Mei Xin said to take care, and while putting down the curtains of the car, Dou Kou, who was driving, raised her voice, "Let's go!"

After the sound fell, the carriage wheel moved, and the cavalrymen at the front, rear, left, and right also moved accordingly.A group of more than 300 people hurried on their way, but they were still very quiet and orderly.

Seeing the carriage going away, Du Quan quickly jumped on the horse and left, leading several people to hurry back, hoping to get back to the barracks as quickly as possible.

The next morning, the sky was gray and not yet completely bright, and Mei Xin and his party arrived at a line of sky.Seeing that there were many scattered stones piled up on both sides of the already narrow road, and the ground was also stained with blood, she knew that the fight yesterday was brutal, and the bandits were really powerful.

However, the word "interest" is only for those guards from the capital. If it is replaced by the well-trained Mei family army or the [-] elite soldiers she is leading now, the bandits will not be able to get a little bit of money.

Not daring to move forward rashly, Yunying sent scouts to investigate, but there was no one there. He came to report and said: "Young General, there is no obstacle ahead, but continue to move forward?"

Looking up at the foggy sky, Mei Xin said lightly: "Let's go, it's almost dawn, find a place to rest. Yunluo, when you get to the resting place, you go to the city to buy some food. In addition, I will give you some food." Miss Bai bought two sets of clothes, as well as shoes, embroidered shoes are good-looking, but they are not as cold-resistant as calfskin boots, so buy two more pairs.”

Guessing that Bai Zhi was alone in An's house and didn't have much money, Luo Qiu accidentally saw her unwrapped bag yesterday, and packed two sets of clothes together, not even a thick coat to keep out the cold, so she had to take care of it some.

Bai Zhi wanted to refuse at first, but after thinking about it, Mei Xin had no other intentions than good intentions, so she readily accepted the respectful blessing and saluted, "Let the Major General worry about it, thank you, Major General!"

After waving her hands to signal no need, Mei Xin got into the carriage, and after the group set off again, the misty sky gradually brightened.

The rising sun was shining brightly, just like Mei Jinze's mood at this moment.Knowing from Du Quan's mouth that the prince was seriously injured and King Ping became a eunuch, and lost three legs in a row, he was so happy that he said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, that's great, my sister is really fast, accurate and ruthless, killing three birds with one stone." ,I admire you!"

Since he was a child, he knew that his sister was smart, and Mei Jinze would discuss many things with her.A few days ago, she told herself not to act rashly, because she was still very annoying.Now it seems that it is nothing to beat the king, but to kill his descendants is to relieve hatred.

　Thanks for the reward of Lie, Momoda!
