I am not married

Chapter 13 Chapter 13

Chapter 13

In a blink of an eye, late autumn has passed, the winter snow has melted, and it is the season when the grass grows and the warblers fly.

The peach blossoms outside the city are in full bloom. Xu Miao planned to go to enjoy the flowers last year, but because Xu Yan's health was delayed, she didn't implement it. But this spring is different.

Since Han Yi left, Xu Yan seemed to have taken a panacea, and his body recovered quickly, much better than before.Xu Yan attributed this to the "combination of yin and yang", and it is true that yin and yang complement each other.

But Xu Yan didn't think so, he just didn't want to be subordinated to others, he said he wanted a revolution, and he definitely wouldn't just talk about it, since that day, he got up early and went to bed early, and began to exercise.I still remember that when I got up early on the first day, Ruyi was startled by this abnormal behavior, thinking that the young master ran away again, this is a substitute.

"Xiao Yan, don't run away, come and eat something." Xu Miao also made people cook a lot of food this time, so why not treat it as a spring outing.

Xu Miao ordered the pastries to be arranged, and Xu Yan's favorite mung bean cake was so delicate that it melted in the mouth, leaving a lingering fragrance in the mouth, full of mung bean flavor.

Since Xu Yan got well, he began to "jump" in various ways. Xu Miao was afraid of getting hurt a few times, and it was the same this time. Just after flying the kite, Xu Miao began to "stop" in disguise again.

Xu Yan also understood, but he really wanted Xu Miao to know that he was really not a child anymore, and he really didn't need to worry so much, but he was afraid of hurting her heart by saying it, so he refrained from saying it. Someone cared about him. Not a bad thing either.

"Here we come." Xu Yan replied, but he still held the string in his hand. Looking at the kites flying in the sky, he remembered that when he was a child, he couldn't afford kites at that time, so he had to watch others fly kites. Some kites flew too fast. If the kite line is too high, it will not be able to support it, and it will break at a certain height.When this happens to many people, they choose not to.

Because the kite has flown so far, who would run to pick it up, and maybe the kite was broken when it was picked up.

But in this situation, Xu Yan is the happiest. He will be the first to rush towards the direction where the kite falls. When he is lucky, he can pick up a good kite. , also has a kite.Once, Xu Yan ran too fast and didn't see a ridge two or three meters high in front of him. As a result, he fell directly onto a rock and couldn't get out of bed for half a month.

"Xu Yan, did you hear me!" Xu Miao yelled for a long time but did not see Xu Yan coming, so she raised her voice.

Xu Yan understood the tone as soon as he heard the tone, and handed the kite string to the accompanying coachman, "Help me set it well, if you fly away, I will beat you." Xu Yan clenched his fists and pretended to be in front of the coachman Shaking.

"Sister, haven't I come here?" Xu Yan blinked his eyes, his tone was instantly gentle, and he became a good brother in seconds. After all, he has dealt with Xu Miao for so long, and he knows that Xu Miao is a typical soft-hearted man. She is a tough person, so it is the best choice to be a good brother in front of her.

Seeing the sweat on Xu Yan's head, he took out a handkerchief and wiped Xu Yan's sweat while nagging, "Look at you, you've sweated so much, why don't you know how to take a rest? What if you catch a cold this time? What should I do? You are such an old man, you still don’t know how to take care of yourself.”

"Sister, I see, um... this mung bean cake is really delicious." Xu Yan picked up a piece of mung bean cake and stuffed it into his mouth.

Xu Miao stopped nagging, "I know you like to eat, so I ordered someone to cook it."

"Sister is really nice."

"I just found out that I'm fine. By the way, my father came back and said that the war in the frontier is a bit tricky. I don't know if Han Yi will be able to return to Beijing for the New Year this year. You have only been together for a long time, and you are separated. It is really hard for my brother." Xu Miao's words were full of her sister's sympathy for her younger brother's life after marriage.

"I don't think it's bitter, and besides, the love of children seems too insignificant in front of the country." Xu Yan choked on eating mung bean cake, and swallowed it after drinking, "And Han Yi doesn't need me to worry, he is so powerful .”

"That's true."

It was already evening when Xu Yan returned to the General's Mansion. When Han Yi was not at the mansion, Xu Yan sometimes went back to live in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but he couldn't stay there permanently.

After going out for a day, Xu Yan was also tired. He hadn't let go of his own kite so much for a long time. Xu Yan was preparing to take a bath when the housekeeper stopped him.

"Madam, here is a letter from the general." The housekeeper handed the letter to Xu Yan as he spoke.

During the few months that Han Yi left, there was basically a letter every month, which was nothing more than saying that Xu Yan was safe and telling Xu Yan not to miss him.

On the outside of the envelope was written "Acknowledged by Xu Yan".

Xu Yan unfolded the letter carefully, and the first sentence at the beginning was always:

Recently, I have been well. Due to the frequent wars in the frontier, I am deeply regretful that I missed your birthday. I attach a peach blossom to express my apology. If I can make you smile, I will be lucky for three lifetimes.

I'm very good, don't read it.

It was only then that Xu Yan discovered that there was a small peach blossom in the envelope. Although the peach blossom was no longer fresh, it still exuded a faint fragrance.

Soaking in the bathtub, Xu Yan took the peach blossom branch and looked up and down. It was obviously just an ordinary peach blossom branch, not even as good as the peach blossoms enjoyed during the day, but Xu Yan couldn't put it down, and even put it next to the pillow when he slept.

The starry sky of the frontier is more beautiful than that of the capital. Many times, Han Yi wants to bring Xu Yan to see this beautiful galaxy when the war subsides.But it doesn't work right now.

There was still faint candlelight flickering in the curtain, Han Yi hadn't gone to bed yet, he seemed to be waiting for something.

"General, he has recruited." The soldier hurried into the curtain.

Han Yi got up immediately, "What did he say?"

"He said that after three days, [-]% of the Xiongnu's troops will bypass Sun Mountain and directly attack our weakest point from the southwest, burning food and grass, and while the soldiers are fighting the fire, they will join forces with the remaining [-]% of their troops to attack us. Caught off guard."

"Is it reliable?" Han Yi was very cautious.

"The confession was extracted through torture, and the prisoner was on the verge of death, so it should be true." The soldier replied cautiously.

"Should?" Han Yi thought over these two words repeatedly, "Okay, you go down first."

"Yes."

It was the first time Han Yi encountered such a difficult battle, and what he wanted to do next would always fail, as if the enemy had already prepared for it.There is a pair of eyes that can see through him, staring silently in the darkness, like a wolf, greedy and accurate.

Han Yi had doubts about whether there were traitors in the army, and he had people investigate secretly, but no results were obtained.

The Xiongnu invaded the frontier territory repeatedly, time and time again, and repeatedly retreated. This time Han Yi was going to deal them a heavy blow in order to show their majesty.

Three days later?What will you face?
