Han Xiao looked in the direction of the noise in front of him, and sure enough, he could faintly hear a burst of orderly footsteps.
Soon a group of people came slowly, and the leader was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties.
The middle-aged man had a serious face, and there was a deep wrinkle between his eyebrows, perhaps because he frowned frequently.
Wearing white armor, he looked over with sharp eyes.
Han Xiao thought in surprise, he didn't expect that just a glance from him would attract his attention.
This should be the General Huo who has made great military achievements.
The two men's eyes met in the air. Han Xiao smiled and nodded at General Huo, then raised his teacup to celebrate General Huo's triumphant return with tea instead of wine.
The pedestrians on both sides of the street were very excited to see General Huo, and many of them shouted General Huo's name loudly.
But no one dared to step forward. After all, these soldiers who looked tough were not here for show.
The young master also climbed up to the window curiously and said to Han Xiao excitedly: "Wow, is this General Huo? He looks so powerful. Hey, my husband, did General Huo look at you just now?"
When Han Xiao and General Huo looked at each other, the young master was a step slower, but now the army was getting closer and closer to them.
Pulling the excited young master back: "Ruanruan, be careful."
Although the windowsill was quite high, Han Xiao was like a worried old father, always fearing that the young master would fall down.
The young master obediently changed his position and continued reading.
General Huo felt a gaze scrutinizing him, looked up and saw it was a young man, but he paid no more attention to him.
Just as he was about to look away, a familiar face suddenly appeared.
General Huo's expression changed immediately. The deputy general following General Huo sensed that he was in a bad mood and rode forward: "What's wrong, General? Is there something wrong?"
Their return from the frontier attracted a lot of attention, and even the current emperor felt a headache when he saw them.
But we can't let them stay in the border forever. It just so happens that General Huo defeated the Northern Di this time and they won't dare to make any more tricks in the next few years.
The emperor found an excuse to let them return to Beijing. To be honest, they didn't want to come back at all. Although life at the border was a bit hard, they were free.
After they came back, their every move was probably under the surveillance of others, so the deputy general and others were very unhappy.
There's nothing they can do even if they're unhappy. General Huo has decided to come back. Are they planning to disobey his order?
General Huo shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Go check on someone?"
After saying that, the whip in his hand pointed in a direction implicitly, and the deputy general immediately looked in the direction of Han Xiao with a sharp look.
He thought it was someone who was detrimental to General Huo.
"Don't overthink it. Just go and check it out. Don't get involved, okay?"
The deputy general, Zhao Heng, immediately bowed and said, "Understood, General."
"By the way, where is Xinyan?" General Huo asked a little uncomfortably.
Hearing the general ask about Huo Xinyan, Deputy General Zhao's expression was extremely awkward. He carefully wiped the sweat from his forehead and said hesitantly: "The young general, she...she said she doesn't like being treated like a monkey, so she wants to go back to the general's mansion first."
"Nonsense! It's okay to make trouble at the border, but when we get back to the capital, tell her to behave herself and bring Xinyan back immediately."
Deputy General Zhao was a sharp man. Hearing that General Huo was angry, he immediately tensed up and said, "Yes! General, I will go right away."
After saying that, he turned his horse around and ran back, smiling bitterly in his heart as he ran, thinking, "You have killed me, your uncle Zhao."
Han Xiao saw the scene underground clearly. Although he couldn't hear what they were saying, from the look in the deputy general's eyes just now, Han Xiao knew that General Huo might have noticed the young master.
Han Xiao sighed in his heart and took the young master into his arms. How could he forget to put a veil on the young master before going out?
Just when Han Xiao was about to take the young master to another place, there was a sudden commotion among the pedestrians underground.
Including the young master, everyone exclaimed: "Wow, my husband, look!"
"What?" Han Xiao looked over in confusion.
The deputy general who had just come came to General Huo on horseback with a woman in red.
The woman in red had an exquisite face, a gentle temperament, and a tall figure, but none of these surprised Han Xiao.
What really surprised Han Xiao was that the woman in red had white hair. Han Xiao had good eyesight and saw that the woman's eyebrows and eyelashes were all white, and her skin was even snow-white, just like a mannequin.
The young master was stunned when he saw the woman in red below. He had never seen such a delicate person, and so special...
However, when the pedestrians underground saw the woman in red, they all started whispering to each other. One was discussing the identity of the woman in red, and the other was discussing her identity.
What kind of person could actually be by General Huo's side?
Could it be General Huo's family? I've never heard of General Huo getting married.
Moreover, the woman in red doesn't look very old, only about eighteen or nineteen years old.
"Husband, look at her hair, it's all white."
The young master said in amazement.
"Well, it's a disease called albinism."
"Albinism? What kind of disease is this?" Chuyi also came over. He had just seen the woman's appearance, but he didn't expect that this would be a disease.
This question stumped Han Xiao. He was not a doctor, but he had seen this kind of disease in modern times, and it was no different from that of normal people.
But how could he explain to Chuyi that albinism was caused by a lack of melanin in the skin, hair and iris?
But the young master also asked curiously: "Yes, I have never seen such a disease before, it's amazing."
Han Xiao had no choice but to explain to the three people using common words that they could understand. Chuyi only half understood it, but Shiwu and the young master were completely confused.
But the two of them didn't care. They continued to lie on the windowsill and look down, discussing who this girl was.
The army passed by quickly, and many people followed the army all the way to the palace gate. It started snowing again, and Han Xiao was worried about the young master's health so he didn't let him go.
I had a simple meal at Yipintang and came back.
When they were in Yipin Building, almost everyone in the lobby was discussing General Huo's triumphant return.
Including the mysterious woman who came back with General Huo, people are guessing what her identity is.
Han Xiao was not that curious, but the young master felt like he was being scratched by a cat. He tossed and turned from the moment he returned from Yipin Building to the moment he went to bed, unable to fall asleep.
She stared with her cat eyes wide open and was still discussing with Han Xiao what her identity was.
Han Xiao finally realized that the young master was just a face lover.
"My husband, can I ask my brother to ask General Huo? I'm so curious. Is it really like they say? Is that girl General Huo's wife?"
