From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 781

"Sister, what's the matter with you, is there something wrong?" Jianchun came over with a bowl and couldn't help feeling a little worried. Seeing Mei Linlang's frowning face, she immediately asked, "Is it a war..."

Waving her hand to indicate no, Mei Linlang took the medicine in her hand and drank it down, "It's nothing, I'm a little tired, just take a nap and you'll be fine."

For decades, even though she has been staying in the palace, she still knows that Fang Pingsheng has never married all these years and has been waiting for her.

In fact, not only waiting, he has been very enthusiastic since we met, as if he was her little follower, little tail, like he was in the palace back then.

To be honest, she was very uncomfortable and entangled, and didn't know what kind of mentality to use to face him, so that she felt a little annoyed, a little bored, and a little overwhelmed.

She had been away for half her life, but when she returned, she was no longer the Mei Linlang he knew. She clearly knew that she had changed.She became unrecognizable, melancholy, and scarred. She was no longer the lively, cheerful, heartless Mei Linlang.

Mei Linlang is dead, she is now only Captain Fang, a female soldier who is proud of dying in battle.

Knowing that she was anxious about the war, Jianchun took the empty bowl and said: "It's good that there is nothing wrong. In the afternoon, my elder brother sent someone to deliver a few pears. I washed them. You can eat one before going to bed."

In winter, not to mention pears, fresh vegetable leaves are very rare, especially in the Liangzhou military camp.But she has loved pears since she was a child, so it is not surprising that Fang Pingsheng sent them specially, but I don't know where he got them from.

Ben was upset because of Fang Pingsheng, as soon as he heard that he sent pears, he immediately said: "I don't want to eat it, you send it back to him. Tell him that I don't need anything, and tell him not to send anything in the future."

Turning over on the bed, she pulled the quilt over and closed her eyes without even taking off her clothes.

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Jianchun didn't dare to talk too much, let alone disobey her orders.So, after washing the dishes, I took the pears in a cloth bag and went to the tent next to the general.

As a military adviser, Fang Pingsheng is particularly responsible, and Mei Zhannan treats him well, so he has devoted himself to death recently.

Just after finishing the discussion and returning to the tent, he was still awake. Guan Shan fetched water to wash his feet, put down the wooden bucket and said, "Sir, are you hungry? You roasted two sweet potatoes."

Fang Pingsheng loved to eat when he was young, and he took pleasure in it, but because he was in a bad mood today and didn't have much appetite, he waved his hand and refused.

Let Guan Shan eat by himself, he began to wash his feet, Jianchun came in after washing.

I didn't know what it was, but I guessed it as soon as I saw the cloth pocket in her hand.Feeling uncomfortable, he wiped his feet with a handkerchief, and after he finished wiping, he put on his shoes and said, "I don't like this food, you save one for Guan Shan and take the rest back to eat by yourself."

It had been many days, no matter how much he showed affection, it was useless, Mei Linlang was as indifferent as if he had no heart, with a heart of stone.

Jianchun didn't have the habit of eating fruit, so he lifted the cloth pocket to look at it and said, "I'll make a pot of pear water tomorrow for everyone to drink."

Guan Shan agreed with both hands, and Fang Pingsheng didn't have any objections, but Jianchun didn't leave immediately after speaking.

Hesitant to speak, Fang Pingsheng signaled Guan Shan to go out, she said: "Sir, don't be angry, and don't be discouraged. Missy just left the palace in a bad mood, and she doesn't want to talk to anyone. Just think about it after a while."

Along the way, no one wants Mei Linlang to be happy more than she does, and no one wants them to be together more than she does.Therefore, Jianchun tried his best to make him never give up.

In the past, I have been waiting silently when I didn't have an opportunity, but now that everyone is in front of me, why can't I wait.Fang Pingsheng was not angry at all, let alone cared, and said with a faint smile: "It is my lifelong wish to marry her, and I will never give up. You go back, if she can't sleep well at night, you can light the tranquilizing incense."

The fragrance of pear blossoms that I made by myself is sweet and calms the nerves and helps sleep, but Mei Linlang didn't know it was made by him, she just thought that Jianchun bought it from outside.

Nodding to indicate that he understood, Jianchun bowed and left.

It was late at night, and the barracks gradually became quiet, except for those who patrolled at night, basically everyone was asleep.

The candles in Xiao Qichen's tent were also extinguished, but he couldn't sleep because he was tossing and turning.It was very uncomfortable, and his head hurt a little. After tossing and turning for more than half an hour, he finally sat up unbearably.

Ah Si is his entourage, his personal bodyguard, and his diehard loyalist.The two lived in the same tent, and they immediately sat up when they heard him get up: "Commander, what's the matter, is there something uncomfortable, do you want to call a military doctor?"

Liangzhou is much, much colder than Beijing, and they are not used to eating, and the dry wind blows on their faces like knives. Several of them fell ill when they first arrived.

Sneezing a little during the day, and now having a stuffy nose, Xiao Qichen rubbed his head and said, "Didn't the general give you some pills during the day, go find them, and pour a bowl of water."

In order to be able to take medicine during the war, the An family sent a batch of pills not long ago, but the quantity was not large, and Mei Zhannan only distributed it to the generals.

As soon as Ah Si heard that he had caught a cold, he hurriedly lit a candle to get medicine and water.

Still feeling uncomfortable after taking the medicine, Xiao Qichen rubbed his temples and said, "How long has General Baihu been gone?"

After formulating a sneak attack plan, Mei Baihu led 5 cavalry and [-] horses out of the city.

Ah Si has been paying attention to the movement in the army, thought for a while and said: "They will leave as soon as it gets dark, and they should have entered the mountain by now."

The mountain is very hidden, and they are very annoyed by being passively beaten all the time.Therefore, the troops were divided into three groups, preparing to flank and outflank the [-] forwards who first destroyed the Tartars.

Xiao Qichen nodded, and Ah Si stepped forward and whispered: "Commander, the emperor's time is short, do you think the general will..."

After wiping his neck, Ah Si subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the door.

It's not that Xiao Qichen doesn't have this kind of worry, but right now he can't do anything for fish and meat, and Mei Zhannan put him under house arrest in disguise as soon as he entered the barracks.

After being silent for a while, Xiao Qichen said: "Not yet, unless there is a big change in Beijing. But don't worry, as long as we stay here honestly and don't act rashly, our lives will not be in danger."

When he came here, he knew it was very dangerous, and the hope of returning alive was very slim, but he couldn't resist the order, or he would die even faster.

Ah Si didn't want to die, since his child was still young, he said in a low voice, "Liangzhou is the territory of the Mei family, it's not an option to continue like this, and what the general said today is that he wants us to go to the battlefield."

Swords have no eyes on the battlefield, Mei Zhannan should hope that they will die in battle, and use the hands of the Tartars to get rid of them.

Xiao Qichen is not stupid, how could he not know what Mei Zhannan meant, but he didn't want to die yet.
