Rebirth of a Star General

The square was silent as hell.

No one would have thought that He Yan was not Xiao Jue, but He Rufei.

Lin Shuanghe murmured, "Is Sister He crazy?"

Yan He also frowned and asked Xiao Jue, "What's wrong with her, instead of coming to you, she went to He Rufei instead."

Xiao Jue didn't say anything, his expression was calm, as if he had expected the scene in front of him.

He Rufei looked at the woman in front of him. The woman in the official uniform had a smile on her face, and her tone was so natural. She clearly looked thin and short, but she didn't know where the confidence came from to compete with him.

Do you really think of yourself as "He Yan"?

There was a sneer in his heart, and the woman in front of him didn't look anything like He Yan before. Hearing that the Hou Heyan of Wu'an was bright and cheerful, he was completely different from his taciturn cousin. Even if you want to pretend to be a ghost, you should inquire about the character of the other party in advance. Such a flawed imitation is so clumsy that people can see through it at a glance.

"You want to compare swords with me?" He Rufei spoke slowly.

"Everyone in the world says that General Feihong's sword is so fast that even the wind can cut it." He Yan smiled and said, "Unfortunately, I have never seen it before. Since I have the opportunity today, Dudu Xiao's words will have more opportunities than the sword in the future. I don't care this time, but General Feihong's sword is not something you can see every day."

"Young Master He," she chuckled, "would you like to fight next time?"

He Rufei raised the corner of his mouth, "Of course you can, but...the sword has no eyes, if you lose..." He glanced in Xiao Jue's direction, "Does Governor Xiao not blame me for this?"

These words are full of blatant provocation.

It was rumored by others that General Feihong and General Feng Yun were born to be enemies, and they were at odds with each other. But today, it seems that the rumors are not just rumors. After all, even a fool can see the undercurrent in this situation.

Among the generals, the young man in the dark blue official uniform just smiled lightly and said, "No, it's just that the sword should have a lot of glory."

"Caitou?" He Rufei asked, "Why not..."

"How can an ordinary colorful head be used with General He's sword." Xiao Jue interrupted He Rufei before he could finish his sentence, "Since it is a sword comparison, use the sword as the color head."

"You win, I'll give you this drink Qiu, and you lose," he stared at He Rufei with a half-smile, "The master of Qinglang is the Marquis of Wu'an from now on."

As soon as these words came out, the square suddenly boiled.

"Really? I didn't expect Dudu Xiao to gamble so much this time!"

"That's Qinglang and Yinqiu. They just took them out for a woman. It's too much of a joke."

"I think Dudu Xiao's Yin Qiu sword is no longer guaranteed. No wonder they say that heroes are saddened by the beauty pass... Looking at Dudu Xiao's appearance, is there some misunderstanding of his fiancee?"

"That's General Feihong, how could he lose to a woman!"

Emperor Wenxuan frowned, and he naturally saw the tit-for-tat between He Rufei and Xiao Jue. But these two people have been in the water without breaking the river, and they have been in peace with each other for so many years. Since when did their relationship become so bad? Discord between generals is not a good thing for a dynasty.

He Rufei looked at Xiao Jue and said, "Captain Xiao, are you sure you want to use your sword as a lucky head?"

"It's not 'my' sword," Xiao Jue said meaningfully, "and 'your sword'."

He Rufei smiled noncommittally, probably in his opinion, what Xiao Jue said was purely to make people laugh. He had heard of He Yan's reputation on the battlefield, but there were various reasons for deciding to win a battle. Maybe He Yan is a little clever, but like this one-on-one, face-to-face sword competition, he is confident that He Yan is not his opponent.

There is only one "He Yan" in the world, and that "He Yan" is already dead.

"Since Dudu Xiao is so generous, then I would be more respectful than obedient." He said, "Please."

"Wait." Xiao Jue said.

"What's wrong?" He Rufei turned to look at him, "Could it be that Governor Xiao regretted it? It's too late to change his mind now."

Xiao Jue twitched the corner of his mouth and mocked: "General He's weapon is a rare weapon in the world. It's not fair to the opponent." Stay, "Just use this handsome drink autumn to compare with you."

He Rufei frowned, He Yan smiled slightly: "Thank you, Governor."

She turned around and walked towards the open space and said, "Please, Mr. He."

He Rufei paused for a moment, then turned around and followed.

The hundred officials on the square and the royal family on the Tianxing Terrace were all staring at the two of them in the open space at the moment. This is much more exciting than the wrestling of the two strong men from the Uto Kingdom. Maningbu was also staring at the woman in the red official uniform. He really didn't expect that He Yan would not be willing to compare with their Uto people, let alone that He Yan would choose He Rufei.

It seems that the discord between the two generals of the Great Wei Dynasty seems to be deeper than they imagined.

Guang Ji whispered to Guang Shuo beside him, "Fourth brother, isn't this right? How could General He bully a woman?"

Even in Guangji's young mind, He Yan, as Xiao Jue's fiancee, is obviously not as perfect as Shen Muxue as Xiao Jue's fiancee. But the rules and principles he learned since childhood also taught him that men should not bully women and children.

Guang Shuo shook his head: "Let's take a look."

He also couldn't understand it. If He Yan didn't know the heights of the sky, so he chose He Rufei, then Xiao Jue not only didn't stop him, but even proposed to use a sword to do the trick, which is even more confusing.

Yan He whispered: "Xiao Huaijin, are you crazy, how could He Yan win against He Rufei? Although He Rufei would not kill her... But in front of so many people, your woman If she suffers a loss, how can she be reconciled in the future, she has just entered the court as an official, if she is defeated by He Rufei's sword here, she will most likely be discussed as a joke in the future."

"She will win." Xiao Jue said.

"What are you kidding?" Yan He widened his eyes and looked at him like an idiot, "I didn't believe that people said you were dazzling, but I didn't expect you to be just an ordinary man. It's not good, and you practice swords more than your woman for a few more years on the battlefield. Even if you don't feel sorry for your woman, you still feel sorry for your sword! I don't want to help you, I just don't want two peerless swords to fall on He Rufei In my hands, I'll be pissed off!"

"Oh." Xiao Jue's voice was still a little careless, "Then you can rest assured that you won't be mad at the moment."

"Me!" Yan He was annoyed, "I'm too lazy to tell you!"

In the square, He Rufei slowly pulled out Qinglang from his waist.

Qinglang was green and green, and as soon as she was unsheathed, she felt the sword's qi was cold, and He Yan's eyes froze for a moment. It was her sword.

Qinglangjian, who accompanied her for many years, watched her grow from an ignorant and jerky recruit to a brave and invincible general. In the most difficult time, she also sat on the edge of the ice-covered river with her sword in her arms. , thinking about the way forward. After not seeing it for many years, the sword was finally unsheathed, but it was held in He Rufei's hands.

"Young Master He has a good sword." She said, "It's a pity."

He Rufei asked, "What a pity?"

He Yan didn't say a word, but suddenly pulled out his waist to drink autumn: "Sword!"

The two figures were entangled in an instant.

Qinglang is green, drinking autumn is crystal clear, long swords are intertwined, one green and one white, like the early morning in the autumn valley, full of quiet chills, the green mountains are faint, and the trees and trees are autumn. The sword qi swept the sand around the ground around, and it was clearly compared to swords, but it was as moving as a dance.

General Feihong's swordsmanship is naturally excellent. It is fast and accurate, and has an indomitable momentum. What is surprising is that the woman holding the Qiuqiu sword, fighting with General Feihong's long sword, did not fall in the slightest. Downwind.

how can that be?

She is just a woman. Although she has been on the battlefield, she is only sixteen or seventeen years old now, so how can she be an opponent of a veteran on the battlefield. Could it be that General Feihong was showing mercy?

A flash of surprise flashed in He Rufei's heart.

Before comparing swords, He Rufei thought that he had overestimated He Yan's swordsmanship, but now it seems that he still underestimated.

This woman's swordsmanship is proficient, as if she had grown up practicing swords since childhood. The blade is extremely stable and cunning, and she can easily avoid every attack from him. And her attack is not weak at all, like a hurricane, comparable to her own, and even sometimes, because the woman's body is light, it looks faster.

Lin Shuanghe was stunned, and said to himself, "My sister He... is she so powerful?"

Although he knew that He Yan was powerful, every time He Yan fought to the death with someone, he had never seen it with his own eyes, but had only heard of it. From her point of view, He Yanxu is very skilled in warfare, but because of her physical strength, her skills cannot be compared with men's, and her opponent is He Rufei.

He Rufei was a little weaker when he was studying in Xianchang Hall when he was young, but later, he was the same general as Xiao Jue in the Great Wei Dynasty. He originally mentioned the heart in the throat, but now he let it go, and then came deeper doubts. He Yan is so powerful, doesn't it mean that she can at least keep pace with He Rufei?

Did Xiao Jue know about this early on, so he would take the Yin Qiu Jian with confidence and give He Yan a lucky draw in this competition?

Wherever Jianfeng went, there was actually another person, who was ignored by everyone, and that was Xu Zhiheng who was hiding in the civil service column.

Since seeing He Yan at the celebration banquet that day, Xu Zhiheng has always felt uneasy. But fortunately, he never met He Yan again. Today, when Maningbu mentioned He Yan, Xu Zhiheng had an ominous premonition.

This premonition reached its peak when He Yan proposed to compete with He Rufei.

If it wasn't for everyone standing here in a proper manner, and the emperor watching from the Tianxing Terrace, Xu Zhiheng might have long ago could not help but fled. The woman holding the sword smiled, and for a moment, it overlapped with the face of a certain woman in memory.

Xu Zhiheng looked at He Yan, who was fighting with He Rufei. Hearing the sighs and exclamations of the people around him, he only felt cold all over his body.

She's back... It won't be anyone else, only her, He Yan is back.

He Yan blocked He Rufei's sword with his sword, jumped lightly, and turned around behind He Rufei.

Yin Qiujian understands her heart very well. Although it is Xiao Jue's sword, she is very handy. She stared at He Rufei, her expression a little cold.

He Rufei was imitating her sword moves.

Perhaps it was because He Rufei was afraid that he would be exposed by disguising as "General Feihong". Even if he took off his mask, even if he didn't go to the battlefield, he deliberately imitated He Yan's sword moves. In fact, 80% of what he imitated, if it wasn't for someone who was very close to He Yan and often saw He Yan use a sword, he probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

It's just... 20% less, and that 20% is He Yan's most important 20%, 10% comes from Xiao Jue's childhood advice, and 10% comes from his master Liu Buwang's teaching. In all fairness, He Rufei's sword moves were good, but a person who had never been on the battlefield, had never experienced the edge of life and death, always had some reservations about his sword qi.

He Yan smiled slightly and stabbed He Rufei with a sword. He Rufei was startled, he held his sword to block, the two swords collided, the sword did not move, but the man moved.

He took two steps back.

There was a low exclamation all around.

The civilians couldn't see it clearly, but the generals could see it clearly. Someone said: "General Feihong actually fell behind?"

"It must have been merciful to let the Marquis of Wu'an win."

He Yan's smile seemed to be frosty: "Young Master He has a good sword, but unfortunately, you don't know how to use it at all."

"Arrogant!" He Rufei said yinfully, turned around and rushed up.

He Yan smiled and leaned back, Qing Lang brushed over her head, cutting off one of her blue threads, and her smiling voice resounded throughout the Tianxing Terrace.

"General He, haven't been on the battlefield for a long time, even the sword moves have made you so dull," she hooked her fingers, her posture was full of arrogance, "Can you still lift the sword in your hand?"

He Rufei's face was already very ugly.

The emperor's face is also not good-looking. If He Rui is not like this, wouldn't it have swept Da Wei's face? This woman is also ignorant. Even if she has good skills, she shouldn't be so aggressive. Spit crazy.

Yan He folded his chest and frowned, "He Rufei's swordsmanship doesn't seem to be very powerful now. However, the two of them's swordsmanship look a bit similar." "Could it be that you also instructed He Yan in swordsmanship?"

"You are really like the martial arts master on the street," Yan He was very disgusted. "Everyone can worship you as a teacher. Do you still remember that you are Xiao Huaijin?"

"You're too noisy." Xiao Jue said unhappily.

"Heh," Yan He saw through him at a glance, "Why are you pretending to be calm here, are you already anxious to death. Can't wait to go up and help He Yan compare the sword? But don't worry, I don't think He Rufei will win, you woman You're right, maybe it's been a long time since I've been on the battlefield, and I've even softened my hands. What a shame for Xianchangguan!"

He Yan and He Rufei came here by comparing swords, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

They thought that this sword competition would end soon, because regardless of gender identity, one was a new recruit and the other was a hero who had already made a name for himself. No matter how you look at it, He Yan lost. Even if he wins, He Rufei did it on purpose.

If He Yan wins soon, it shows that General Feihong is considerate of women and does not want to embarrass women, which has preserved the self-esteem of Marquis of Wu'an. But He Yan had fought with He Rufei for so long.

It was impossible for General Feihong to show mercy after fighting for so long.

And looking at the reactions of those generals, He Rufei... didn't even have the upper hand.

Is it because Xiao Huaijin's fiancee is really so powerful? Even He Rufei couldn't beat him, or did General Feihong really regress in his skills over the years?

Among the people in the audience, besides Xu Zhiheng and He Rufei, the one with the most ugly expression was Xu Jingfu.

What happened today was beyond Xu Jingfu's expectations.

Those Uto people are very cunning, and they are especially involved in private contacts with Crown Prince Guangyan. Guang Yan is short-sighted, narrow-minded, and does things without thinking. Apart from being ruthless and ruthless, he does not have any qualities of being a prince. He just doubted whether the Uto people had left behind in doing things, and the Crown Prince Guangyan had a quarrel with him. If it weren't for the fact that he had invested too much energy in Guangyan over the years, and now he was just a little bit more accomplished, he would have wanted to abandon the darkness and cast the light.

Guangyan has reservations about him, and the Uto people have been very dissatisfied with him in private since the battle of Jiyang. Just so what? In the Great Wei Chaotang, he covered the sky with one hand.

Today, Maningbu proposed to compete with He Yan, which was beyond Xu Jingfu's expectations, and the people who finally competed with the sword were He Yan and He Rufei, which made him even more aware that something was wrong.

He Yan, the daughter of a city gate commander, did what Xiao Jue did. Xiao Jue proposed to use the sword as the head of the lottery, which was clearly malicious. Xu Jingfu has been with Xiao Jue as opponents for so many years. Seeing him from the young man who struggled to support the lintel in the beginning to the right army commander who always responds, sometimes he knows Xiao Jue better than himself. He and He Yan obviously set a trap for He Rufei, but He Rufei foolishly got into it.

Or maybe He Rufei didn't fail to see it, just conceited to him and didn't believe that he would lose in the hands of a woman.

Others are watching He Yan and He Rufei compare their swords, and they are amazed that the swordsmanship of He Yan and He Rufei is comparable to that of He Yan, but is it really important?

Could it be that Xiao Jue did this just to make his woman humiliate He Rufei in front of the officials?

Xu Jingfu didn't think so. There was no hatred between He Rufei and Xiao Jue before, but He Rufei later defected to him to show his sincerity in cooperation, and even sent his confidants to Liangzhou City to attempt to assassinate Xiao Jue, thus. Take credit for yourself, even if you fail in the end.

But Xu Jingfu saw He Rufei's sincerity. He has the support of a civil servant and also needs the echo of a military general. He Rufei appeared just right, although Xu Jingfu did not understand why He Rufei chose himself, he could obviously protect himself. But then I thought about it later, the officialdom is the most capable of changing a person, even a brave and good general, in the face of greater interests and a higher position, will willingly offer his sword.

He Rufei... He Rufei... Xu Jingfu's heart was filled with unease like a cloud of ink, which wrapped him up in an instant. He looked at He Rufei who was fighting with the woman on the field, and his heart sank.

If something goes wrong with He Rufei... will he be implicated?

After all, from the time of Yuan Baozhen in Liangzhou City, he and He Rufei had been very close.

With murderous intent, the tip of the sword stabbed diagonally from behind, but the person who was stabbed seemed to have eyes behind his back.

"Young Master He's swordsmanship looks a bit familiar." He Yan smiled and said, "But it only has its shape, not its magic. How can you use this sword?" Her lips curled up, with calm killing intent, "Would you like it? I teach you?"

He turned around sharply and stabbed.

With a "bang", the tip of the sword pierced into He Rufei's chest, but it only sank a little and didn't move forward.

"Young Master He also wears soft armor when he comes to Tianxingtai?" He Yan said in surprise, "How afraid of death is this? Do you have many enemies, and you are afraid that someone will come to seek revenge in the middle?"

He Rufei sneered: "You talk too much!"

"Your swordsmanship is too weak."

In terms of provocation, He Rufei is really not He Yan's opponent. When He Yan was in Liangzhou Guard, with a few words, every recruit who could provoke him would grit his teeth at her, not to mention now.

He Rufei also felt exhausted in his heart.

The swordsmanship of the woman on the opposite side is really good. There is no loophole, no loophole can be found, on the contrary, she can always find her fault and see through it at a glance. There were several times when He Yan could clearly end the sword competition quickly, but she didn't, so she sometimes cut off a button on him, and sometimes cut off a sleeve of his sleeve, without rushing, like a cat catching a mouse. , so that he is not as good as a woman in the eyes of everyone.

than a woman!

Obviously he is the real He Rufei, obviously he is the eldest young master of the He family, but he has to live by He Yan's life. He lives as if he is He Yan's substitute. , he is not as good as He Yan.

Don't think he can't see it, the arguments and guidance of those people behind the scenes, the current General He is not as good as the former General Feihong, why?

Why should he be compared like this, living in the shadow of others, not as good as a woman? It's ridiculous, that woman is already a dead person, how can the dead person compare with him, the one who survives to the end is the winner.

He held a sword and stabbed He Yan from behind He Yan at a tricky angle. This was General Feihong's most powerful sword move. He had learned it for a long time... I heard that no one can avoid General Feihong's last sword.

The tip of the sword was about to pierce the woman's vest, and the heart of the crowd raised his throat.

The next moment, Yin Qiu split his sword without error. The woman in red did not look back. She stabbed back with a sword. He Rufei was shocked and wanted to avoid it. Not to actually stab him. He rolled over and jumped behind him, kicking his knees fiercely. He Rufei was caught off guard, his knees softened, and he knelt down.

A cold streak ran across his neck immediately.

The woman in red was condescending, stared at him with a smile, and moved her lips silently. It was too far away for others to hear, but He Rufei could see clearly.

"Brother," she said, "use my sword, are you—worthy?"

He Rufei: I'm not worthy (.
