Zheng Xuan and two new recruits were standing beside the martial arts arena of the Liangzhou Guard Station. When they saw Xiao Jue coming, Shen Han hurried forward and said, "Commander-in-chief."
"I heard that the person has been found?" Shen Han asked.
"Liang Ping is watching."
Shen Han breathed a sigh of relief. He Yan was under suspicion, and if he suddenly disappeared, it might be intentional. It was always safer to keep suspicious people under surveillance.
But now that the person has been found, there is another thing to consider.
"Zheng Xuan said that He Yan crossed the mountain on his own, and Shen Hong said that He Yan crossed the mountain to save Zheng Xuan. Commander, what do you think..." Shen Han asked.
Xiao Jue: "Zheng Xuan is lying."
Shen Han was stunned.
"There are horse hoof prints on the mountain road, and I also found traces of a wolf cub being thrown to death." Xiao Jue said: "He Yan was indeed saving people."
Shen Han's face darkened, "In that case, Zheng Xuan and his men are really immoral." No matter how outstanding such a recruit is, once he goes to the battlefield in the future, who knows if he will temporarily turn against his side. Soldiers can die under the sword of the enemy, but they cannot die under the hidden arrows of their comrades.
"However," Shen Han thought of another thing, "If what He Yan said is true, can it clear her of suspicion?" If He Yan is someone who can disregard her own life for the sake of her comrades, perhaps he should have a different view of her.
"No." Xiao Jue answered him coldly, "He killed a wolf with his bare hands in a pit on the mountain. This boy should not be underestimated." He raised his eyebrows, "I'm afraid he has a secret."
Shen Han didn't dare to say anything more. Although Liangzhou Wei was thousands of miles away from Shuojing, the situation was complicated and no one dared to take it lightly.
Shen Han looked at Zheng Xuan and the others. They were sitting far away and were looking over here frequently with uneasy expressions. Although Zheng Xuan tried his best to remain calm, he didn't know that his lie had been exposed.
"How does the governor plan to deal with these people?" Shen Han asked.
"He went out to join the Yue army, was aggressive, had a sharp tongue, and made false statements," Xiao Jue said calmly, with an expression unchanged. "He was convicted of slandering the army, and shall be executed."
Shen Han's heart sank, and he bowed his head and said, "Yes!"
…
When He Yan woke up the next day, the sun was already high in the sky and there was no one in the room. She sat up and stared at the sunlight coming through the window in a daze.
Someone pushed the door open and walked in. He Yan looked up and saw that it was the fairy doctor Shen Muxue from yesterday. He Yan asked curiously, "Miss Shen?"
"This is today's medicine, you take it first," Shen Muxue put the medicine bowl on the small table in He Yan's room, "Yesterday the governor gave you external injury medicine, you can change it every three hours."
He Yan picked up the medicine bowl on the table, drank it all in one gulp, and asked casually: "Miss Shen, why are all the others gone? They didn't call me?"
"I've told Coach Liang that your body still needs rest, so it's not convenient for you to go to the martial arts field to practice today." Shen Muxue replied.
He Yan responded and looked at Shen Muxue. This girl was only about 16 or 17 years old, with skin as white as cream and extremely beautiful. More importantly, she exuded a calm and leisurely temperament from the inside out, which made people feel very comfortable. Perhaps she felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by He Yan, Shen Muxue frowned slightly: "Is there anything wrong, little brother?"
"Nothing," He Yan said, "I just thought Miss Shen looked familiar, as if I've seen her somewhere before."
Shen Muxue was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and laughed, "My brother and I have never met before, so I may have remembered it wrongly."
"Okay." He Yan nodded. When Shen Muxue saw He Yan finish drinking the medicine, she took the medicine bowl away and left the room.
Suddenly everything became quiet, and He Yan didn't know what to do. Fortunately, he didn't remain in this daze for long before someone knocked on the door again.
"Who?" He Yan asked.
A cautious voice sounded, "It's me."
He Yan was startled when a head appeared at the door. It turned out to be Shen Hong.
He didn't know where he came from. His face was very pale, and his lips were purple. He was not as lively as when they first met. He limped in, not daring to look at He Yan's face. He walked to He Yan's bedside and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."
He Yan already knew the whole story from Hong Shan, so he said, "It's okay. Didn't you tell them the truth?"
"But I...almost..." Shen Hong's face was full of guilt.
He Yan could understand that Shen Hong had never experienced anything before and was timid. She was probably scared after being threatened by Zheng Xuan. She said, "I'm fine now, right?"
Shen Hong nodded silently.
"You walked a little strangely when you first came in," He Yan asked, "What happened?"
"I...I violated the military order and was punished with forty strokes of the cane," Shen Hong said, "I will be a platoon soldier from now on and will not be allowed to go to the front line."
He Yan was silent. Forty military sticks. No wonder Shen Hong looked so bad. It was a relief that she didn’t die.
"What about the others?"
"Zheng Xuan and two other people... were beheaded... in front of all the recruits..." Shen Hong said with a pale face.
He Yan was not surprised. When she was a general of Feihong, she had heard of the bad reputation of General Fengyun. The military discipline was extremely strict. Once, the son of a high-ranking official came to join the Southern Army to gain fame, but he violated military discipline and was ordered to be beheaded by Xiao Jue. At that time, the official refused to give in and reported the case to the emperor, but in the end, nothing was done.
Others might say that Xiao Jue was cruel, but if not, he would not be able to control the Southern Palace soldiers, let alone get to this point today.
"Actually, being a team leader is pretty good," He Yan patted his shoulder, "You have a gentle and kind personality, and you wouldn't dare to kill anyone on the front line."
Shen Hong forced a smile. He took out a handful of things from his pocket and stuffed them into He Yan's hands. He Yan looked down and saw that it was a handful of pine nuts.
"You are a good person," Shen Hong stammered, "I was too cowardly before, I'm sorry, I almost caused you to lose your life. This pine nut is for you, you... you take your time to eat it."
He stood up and limped out again. As soon as he walked out the door, Hong Shan and his group came in and bumped into him. Shen Hong blushed and walked even more hurriedly. After he left, Hong Shan asked, "Why did that kid come here?"
"I think it's the one who should apologize," Xiao Mai said, "Hey, Brother He, where did you get the pine nuts?"
He Yan put the pine nuts on the table and said, "Eat them yourself if you want. Why did you come back so early?"
"The head coach said something today," Shitou said, "You don't have to carry heavy loads and run for the next few days."
"What's the matter?" He Yan was surprised.
"We have been in Liangzhouwei for a whole summer," Hong Shan said as he picked up a few pine nuts and peeled them. "The head coach said that he wanted to select new recruits with good qualifications to go to the vanguard camp."
He Yan raised an eyebrow. According to the time, it was indeed about this time.
"They said that in a few days, we will go to the mountain to compete for what? For first place?"
"Fight for the flag." Shitou continued.
"Oh, yes, yes, compete for the flag. Whoever competes the most will be first and may be selected to the vanguard camp." Hong Shan said while chewing pine nuts.
"Brother Ahe will definitely be fine," Xiao Mai held up his chin, "Brother Ahe is so amazing, he will definitely get in."
He Yan smiled and shook his head. If it was just the Vanguard Camp, then it would be fine. However, if he wanted to enter Xiao Jue's Nine Flags Camp, he would have to work harder.
This is really a competition where the most capable ones come out on top.

Although this book is also about rebirth, it is a little different from the previous style. It is more lighthearted, sweet and cute (?), with fewer or almost no plots of house fighting, and more emotional lines (probably). Yanyan is a very cool and cute little guy. As for the uncle, he is not aloof, he is just lazy and too lazy to talk to people he is not familiar with. After the seal is released, he will become very [beep——
I want to try a new style of story this year. Friends who don't like this style can quit, don't waste your money. Jio is okay, I hope you like it!
