"I'm going to be disarmed and returned to the field."

He Mulan's loud words made the second elder of the Hua family and the first cadre of the family speechless for a long time, and they could only look at her who had already made a decision at a loss.

The first to come to his senses was the flower father.

Hearing this, the simple old man nodded hurriedly: "I have been persuading you to return to your hometown for a long time!" You've been stumbling for so many years, you've been injured, and now you're young and fine, but when you're old and sick, who will take care of you? ”

He unconsciously touched his leg and nodded his head again: "Although your name is 'Mulan', we have never asked you to be rich and rich, we only hope that you will be safe and happy." It's good that you can figure it out, although this house is big, it is not our home, and when you recover from your injuries, we will go home! ”

He Mulan didn't expect to be able to convince Father Hua so easily, but he looked a little surprised.

Hua Mu has never disobeyed her husband's opinion in her life, even if she feels that it is a pity to move away from the bustling capital, but she also clearly understands that she is incompatible with the entire inner city.

She also likes to have servants to help with household chores, but when she dreams back at midnight, she thinks of her own small courtyard, a few big houses, and the fertile field behind the house.

The two compared with each other, and then thought about the injuries and hardships that his daughter had suffered for her father in the army for so many years, Yuan couldn't help but redden, and nodded.

"Go home, go home, anyway, your brother has learned a lot of words now, and it is not unaffordable to ask a master to teach him when he returns to his hometown. This house...... It's better to return this house to the Great Khan, and we can't afford to clean it every day and hire someone to guard our house......"

"I'll read the books myself."

Hanakito's voice was a little hoarse as he began to change his voice, but his attitude was firm.

"You don't have to worry about me."

Yuan was a little reluctant to this house, glanced around the large banquet hall, and touched the head of his son next to him, "When I go back, I don't want to go out again, I'm old, and I'm going to lose half my life." Your grandfather's former comrade led the family to the extinction, and the sister-in-law was also sick and couldn't raise the child, so there was only one daughter left. ”

She looked at her son and didn't say that Father Hua was going to raise the girl as a daughter-in-law, but the people in the house should know what was going on, and they should have told the girl that the Hua family needed a daughter-in-law.

Although the sister-in-law of the Fang family is sick and weak, her character is not cowardly, and the daughter she raised should be very good, but she is a mother after all, and she is still unwilling to settle the relationship between her children and daughters if she has not seen it with her own eyes.

After all, she is raised as a daughter, even if her personality is not suitable, she will not be less of a thick dowry......

Thinking of this, Yuan's nose began to sour again.

Mulan's dressing table, flower yellow, rouge, those narrow skirts, and those good materials that she deliberately left for dowry, have not been used by Mulan for more than 20 years.

Compared with the approval of the flower father and the flower mother, the attitude of Yuan Fang, Na Luohun and others is much more intense.

"General, you have disarmed and returned to the field, have you ever thought about what your brothers would think?" Chen Jie's half body was hanging outside the door, and he really returned with "even rolling and climbing".

"The brothers will think you don't want them anymore!"

"Not only that, more than 2,000 people died in the yellow sand, and this bereavement property still needs to be managed by the general." Yuan Fangqiang suppressed the urge to roar, and simplified the matter: "You have been disarmed and returned to the field, the new generals of the Tiger Ben Army don't care about this old account, most of them are from military families, and there is no food and salary in the first place, if there is no pension, I don't know how many people will be poor and ......."

As soon as Yuan Fang's words were spoken, Father Hua's expression hesitated again.

His family has been fighting for generations, and he understands what Yuan Fang means better than Mulan, and he said with some hesitation when he heard this: "Mulan, why don't you wait a little longer?" Wait until these people are settled before they return? It's not kind to go! ”

He Mulan glanced at Yuan Fang with guilt on his face, only to see Yuan Fang looking at her without avoidance, and continued: "More than 400 members of my Yuan family have been enslaved, and I have worked hard to take care of your family business in order to be able to rescue them. Seeing that I am about to be rewarded for meritorious deeds, I may also have to leave the country, and as soon as you leave, who will take this mess? ”

Every spring, the official slaves would begin to be bought and sold and distributed, and Yuan Fang hoped to save more money so that he could buy the old and young resettlement of the Yuan family in the spring. Although he has no nationality, he has borrowed the identity of Hua Mulan to buy some pastures and granges in the south, which is to let the clansmen go there to live as "errands".

In this world, once Mulan is disarmed and returned to the field, the local suzerain and wealthy families will not hesitate to swallow the fertile land and occupy the pasture, where will there be any happy land at that time.

Yuan Fang is doing the work of the main bookkeeper, but in fact, he is the Gong Cao, Ku Cao and logistics officer of the Tiger Army, or He Mulan's account office, housekeeper, and foreign manager, even if the loss of Bei Liang is so big, now He Mulan's family wealth has tripled compared to before, all of which is Yuan Fang's credit.

To put it mildly, before Mrs. He came, what dishes to eat at night in General Huwei's Mansion were arranged by Yuan Fang, and she said that she would dismiss his armor and return to the field, and it was natural for Yuan Fang to be angry.

Hermulan looked at Na Luohun.

"What about you? You're holding me back? I thought you understood my ......"

"If the fire chief doesn't want to fight, of course I can understand." Na Luo Hun was deeply worried about Hermulan when she revealed that she was a woman, and if she wanted to return to her status as a woman and return to her hometown to live freely, of course he would not object.

But......

"However, I don't think that if you are discharged and returned to the field, you will be able to solve your current troubles. On the contrary, your troubles will become more and more ......" Na Luo Hun said matter-of-factly: "You are no longer the little soldier in the black camp, but the commander of the Tiger Army, a general with great fame in Montenegro, your reputation is known to everyone in the countries, no one can touch you when you are still a general, if you become a commoner, I am worried about your safety." ”

He paused and said a little uncomfortably, "Moreover, Di Yefei...... Di Yefei will go crazy, right? ”

He Mulan's face suddenly turned into a bitter gourd face.

She had already explained to Di Yefei that she was a woman before, but Di Yefei didn't believe it at all.

She can't show her integrity like Di Yefei walking birds in the tent, since the other party doesn't believe it at all and is willing to deceive herself, she has no way.

But she knew that Di Yefei had always regarded her as her goal, and tried her best to catch up with her, and even she herself had said to Di Yefei, "You hurry up and catch up", and now the other party is about to catch up, but she irresponsibly said to Di Yefei, "Ah, I'm tired and don't want to run, you can run by yourself"......

In the obviously warm room, He Mulan seemed to have felt the cold breath brewing in Di Yefei's eyes, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

Thinking about it like this, it seems to be really scum.

What's more, Di Yefei still has that kind of thought about himself......

Does this count as dumping the other party twice?

Seeing that the scene was frozen all of a sudden, even He Mulan had a faint collapse expression, and the flower father felt a sour feeling in his heart, and took his daughter's hand and clapped it.

"Mulan, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, let's take our time...... You have been in the army for so many years, it doesn't matter if the road home is long, we will solve it little by little, and we will be able to go home one day. ”

Hermulan's eyes were hot, and she watched as Father Hua's big, rough hand patted on her equally rough palm.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, grandpa and grandma will accompany you......"

The two hands, full of knife wounds and calluses sharpened by various weapons, have witnessed the lives of two generations of military families.

Only military households understand the fatigue of military households, and only military households understand the responsibilities of military households.

Mulan's sentence "What I am more afraid of than death is to change their lives" suddenly rushed into He Mulan's heart, hitting the depths of her heart, and she almost bent over in pain.

I'm more afraid of changing their lives than dying......

How could she not understand all the time?

What is she afraid of is that her identity as a woman will be exposed?!

What is she afraid of is that her brother will not be able to marry a wife in the future?!

Where is she afraid that the Tiger Benjun and Da Wei will be insulted because of her gossip?!

What she fears is that when the truth has to be revealed in an unbearable form, it will change their lives!

Feeling the temperature from Father Hua's thick palm, He Mulan, who had been holding on strongly, couldn't help but raise his head, and let the tears in his eyes sweep across the faces on both sides wantonly, turning into a broken chok.

"Grandpa, I'm not afraid, I'm afraid of you......"

Chen Jie and Na Luo Hun stood side by side, their eyes swelling with endless grief, and they didn't know how to speak. Such a fragile Mulan is so rare, and the rare ones are shocking to them.

Yuan Fang closed his eyes, and for the first time felt like the kind of bully who persecuted Liang/Family/Woman/Woman, and it was he who forced him to use his responsibility to restrain He Mulan to face up to how many fetters he still had behind him.

However, he did not regret it at all.

Even if he knew that Mulan was a woman, his desire to follow her had never wavered, this was Mulan's personality charm.

A moment of fragility will always be overcome, and the value of her life should never be weaving and farming in the countryside!

***

The news of "Hua Mulan was personally sent back to the General's Mansion by King Yingchuan" did not take long to spread throughout the capital, and in the previous incident, many courtiers were in the right position, in addition to Tuoba Tao's prestige was enough to make these people bow down, He Mulan's midnight request for help and Cui Hao's quick control of the situation were also very important reasons.

At this point, many families owe He Mullan a favor, and the children of their families do not have to worry about their future background because of their "meritorious service in quelling chaos".

So when they knew that He Mulan returned to the General's Mansion safely, a group of old foxes immediately deduced that He Mulan had definitely not lost his favor, and the worship posts and various invitations of various families were also immediately sent to the Huwei General's Mansion.

From the beginning of the transfer of yang energy, the idea of disarming and returning to the field appeared in He Mulan's mind all the time, as if with the loss of strength, her ambition and firmness were also removed, and this thought became more intense with the successive victories of the Great Wei and the pacification of the four seas.

But what Yuan Fang said is not wrong, now she is not the Mulan of the previous life, the military exploits of Mulan in the previous life were fought in the army little by little, it is the sea of corpses and flesh accumulated in the past twelve years, it is the struggle of countless births and deaths, and it is the merit of her subordinates.

And her feats are the collective merits obtained by leading the generals countless times to "defeat the strong with the weak" and "capture the thief and capture the king first", and it is a miracle created by her personal martial arts to drive morale.

Even if she wants to be disarmed and return to the field, the Tiger Ben Army must be properly placed. Whether it is Gai Wu, Lu Shuihu, or the more than forty Rouran slaves in General Huwei's mansion, including those criminals and sinners of the Yuan family, they are all passes that cannot be bypassed.

Even Yuan asked her worriedly, if she returned to her hometown, what would the "lady" in the backyard do? Will he be found and beaten to death by a wicked woman?

How simple it was to make the decision to join the army for my father, but now it has become extremely difficult to get out of it.

"Hey......"

The night was as cold as water, and He Mulan looked up at the vast dark night with a lot of heart, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

She seems to have seen a dark future for herself.

"Why is General Hua sighing?"

A gentle female voice appeared behind Hermulan, carrying a fragrance of fluttering clothes.

There is no need to look back, Hermulan also knows who it is.

In her mansion, there is only one woman of noble birth who will not forget to take care of herself to perfection at such a moment.

This is a skill that all harem women have to learn, because no one knows when that man will come, so everyone can only wear their own robes and wield their weapons at all times, showing their most perfect side.

"I was thinking, I'm so poor."

He Mullan didn't look back, just calmly answered her question.

"I have to use money everywhere, I thought I was very rich, but when I finish what I want to do, I really want to be an ordinary peasant woman, and I may not even be able to support Yue Ying and Dahong."

War horses eat concentrates, otherwise they will lose weight, Yue Ying likes to eat expensive black beans, although Da Hong is not so luxurious, he also eats wheat and beans, which are better than the rations of many poor families.

"Is General Hua reminding me that I haven't paid for the room?" Mrs. He sat down leaning on the railing, covered her mouth and chuckled: "A general like you, even if you don't have wealth, you will have it on the last battlefield." 'Wealth' is in danger......"

Mrs. He teased Mulan's name with a pun.

"Yes, the rich and the ......," He Mullan reluctantly turned to look at the graceful lady, "but what if I don't want to ask for it?" ”

Knowing what He Mulan's words meant, Mrs. He's smile gradually froze at the corners of her mouth, and she raised her eyes to look at He Mulan suspiciously: "General Hua has a great future, but he has already given birth to the intention of begging to go?" ”

"Madame ought to know my secrets." Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Mrs. Ega to agree to a man's house for refuge, and she would rather live on her own.

"Fake is fake after all, I originally joined the army to make my family live a stable life, but now I have become a problem at home, and I always have to face this day."

"General Hua is always so free-spirited."

Mrs. He stroked her arms and sighed.

"It's enviable......"

"Huh?"

He Mullan was stunned.

"Your Majesty sent someone to send me a message to let me go back to the palace as a female official to be a 'nanny', as long as I am willing to self-harm my appearance and tattoo a birthmark on my face......" There was no resentment in Mrs. He's eyes, only helplessness, "He is always so cruel to us, is it because we don't have the ability like you?" ”

At this point, Tuoba Tao did have the common problems of emperors in this era, and He Mulan couldn't say anything, so he could only be silent.

"He, don't even ask me if I want to go back......" Mrs. He covered her mouth amusedly, but tears welled up in her eyes.

"How could he think that after being outside for a while, he would want to go back to that prison? Such a terrible place, even though I am alive every day, I feel like I am dead......"

"Perhaps, you can communicate with him once and tell him what you think." He Mulan spoke sincerely: "Your Majesty is reasonable many times. ”

"I'm different from you, Mulan. You are a hero, a man who can bring victory and spoils of war to the country, what about us? In the harem, apart from spending money, having children, and satisfying his desires, what can we bring him? I don't even have the qualifications to negotiate, so how can I ask him to give me anything? In his opinion, I saved my life and can be a 'nanny', which is already very favorable. ”

Mrs. He shook her head.

"That's why I envy you, Mulan. At least every word you say is being listened to by someone trying to hear it. He will worry about what you are thinking, what you are upset about, what you are sad about. He will give you what you want according to the effort you make, instead of giving you cloth, jewelry, and things that you don't care about forever. ”

"You don't want to go back?"

Hermulan suddenly felt something resonate with this woman.

"No, I'm just not reconciled."

Mrs. He's even silent crying is amazingly beautiful. The years have not added any shadow to her, but have made her more thrilling, the woman with a story is the most beautiful, and it is no wonder that Mrs. He, who is covered by a hairy boy, can be fascinated.

In this world, there is probably only Tuoba Tao, who is so hard-hearted about women, that he can ruthlessly ruin such a beautiful face, just in exchange for a hard-working senior housekeeper.

"I know it's best to go back, after all, I can't live under your protection forever. I've lived in the palace for almost half my life, and I don't even know how to live without the protection of others. How much cloth does it cost to buy a bucket of rice? How can I make a living? Will I be in trouble because of my appearance? Will I be a danger to my family? ”

Mrs. He rarely had the opportunity to sit down with He Mulan for a long time, but the long-suppressed emotions always had to find an outlet, which made her can't help but pour out her heart to the fullest.

"I'm not, I've been in the army for so long, I don't know what a normal daughter's family should do. I'm not afraid of your jokes, my appearance is awkward in women's clothes. Even if I get back to my daughter, I'm probably still like this. He Mulan touched his injured shoulder and said with a wry smile:

"Gossip is indispensable, but I don't want to see so many girls waste their youth for me, even if it is for their reputation, I still have to reveal my identity."

"How wonderful, you are finally going to live a dignified life as yourself, and I will live incognito for the rest of my life, pretending to be someone else in the place I hate the most."

Mrs. He chuckled and said with some self-defeating: "No, I at least have one more thought, I can still see my son often when I go back, although they will only treat me as a 'nanny'." ”

"Nanny ......"

She clung to the shirt in her heart.

"Although Your Majesty treats Empress Dowager Dou like a mother, the only person who will always be there in your heart will only be Mrs. Du. The only one who can be buried with the first emperor is Mrs. Du. ”

What is she, what is she?

She's dead, and she can't even lie down next to Tuobatao.

He Mulan is not sensitive to the relationship between men and women, but he still feels a deep love for Tuoba Tao from this lady.

Perhaps it was precisely because of the severity of the injury that this lady hid all her love under the appearance of submissiveness, gentleness and reasonableness, and did not dare to show the slightest care and willfulness.

Only those who are pampered have the qualifications to be willful, and Mrs. He will be afraid and unwilling to be so normal.

A trace of pity for Mrs. He couldn't help but rise in her heart, and He Mulan's lips opened and closed, and she instinctively wanted to comfort this poor woman, but she didn't know what to say.

Looking at the bright moon rising high in the west, He Mullan suddenly remembered another queen who was completely different from Madame He. Despite the untold grief she brought to her and the Tiger Army, it is undeniable that she is still one of the most remarkable women she has ever seen in this world.

"When I went to Beiliang, I protected the young son of Beiliang for a while." Hermulan suddenly moved on to something else.

Madame He had a quiet power, and her gentle gaze at He Mulan gave her the courage to continue.

"The prince of Beiliang told me that the reason why Queen Meng has never given up on Fuqu Mengxun is because Fuqu Mengxun has done what she promised her. The greatest love an emperor can give to a woman is to let her son become the prince, eventually ascend to the throne, and after his death, still enjoy a happy and peaceful life. Other than that, everything is a false promise. ”

He Mulan relayed the words of Fuqu Bodhi, and then looked at Mrs. He, whose eyes suddenly widened, and couldn't help but continue to speak with some emotion.

"The situation in our country is different from that of other countries, the death of the noble mother has made many women who should have enjoyed the love of the emperor no longer feel the unwillingness and fear like you, and this fear is engraved in the hearts of every great khan, so that they dare not invest any feelings in the women of the harem."

The fear of Tuoba Huang in his previous life surfaced in the bottom of He Mulan's heart, which seemed to be a strange circle for all the emperors of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and also a nightmare for all women.

"Think about it, if His Majesty hadn't bothered to send you out of the palace, but he had poured all his love into you, how would he be suffering now? He personally killed the person he loved, the mother of his own child, and had to face a child who looked like his lover? When Mrs. Du died, Her Majesty was already well versed in personnel, and such pain and the subsequent trauma were not at all something that Empress Dowager Dou could heal. ”

Hermulan struggled to imagine the way His Majesty behaved in the world, and made an astonishing inference.

"Let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascend to the throne and let you return to the palace as the Empress Dowager, even after his death, you still enjoy a noble status, which is already the greatest love that Your Majesty has given you."

"No ......"

Mrs. He's eyes gathered again with moisture, and she was stunned for a long time as if she couldn't believe it, and then turned into a face and cried.

"But why...... Why are we going to bear these ...... He was such a great man, except that he could not give us what he wanted most, almost the most perfect man in the world...... Why...... Why can flesh and blood never see each other, why do you set such cruel rules......"

"Because women are not weak."

He Mullan laughed proudly and heartily.

"Because we're not weak! Although I am proud of many men with strength and arrogance, I can say such things with some intensibility, but I can still say this sentence firmly. ”

"Men's suppression of women is precisely because they yearn for women's gentleness and tolerance on the one hand, and are afraid of women's power on the other. If we are really weak enough to exist like ants, why do we need our children and mothers to die? Would you deliberately step on an ant for fear of taking your place? ”

Although Hermulan presented himself as a man, he never forgot his identity as a woman, nor did he act and behave as a substitute for men's values.

"Mrs. He, my battlefield is full of swords and arrows, and your battlefield is not so peaceful. Outside the palace, you may be able to live well and be comfortable, but you will regret it for the rest of your life, because on your battlefield, you have become a deserter. How many great khans have not had a mother since the beginning of the dynasty? If you leave, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will become the second Majesty who does not know love, and will become the kind of person who treats women as objects for reproduction. ”

He Mulan looked at Mrs. He, who raised her head and began to gradually straighten her spine.

"This world is really bad, but it's not enough to be unwilling." He Mulan couldn't help but grin when he remembered Tuobatao's bold words, those lofty ambitions that he was willing to work side by side to change the Wei State.

"There's already an opportunity in front of you that no one has ever been able to get, why don't you try to change the miserable future of the harem girls?"

"What Your Majesty can't do, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may not be able to do."

Syllable!

It was like some dark confinement suddenly shattered, and Mrs. He's eyes suddenly brightened, and even made her stand up suddenly.

Yes, she is different, compared to Mrs. Du who died, what is she unwilling to do? Just like Hua Mulan learned martial arts since she was a child to protect herself and her family, she has learned so many harem survival skills since she was a child, isn't it to give birth to the most qualified heir of this country, so that the country can continue in the best direction?

Who says procreation is not an ability? Among so many children, giving birth to the strongest one, standing in the highest position, how can it not be a woman's greatest pride?

Her battlefield has never been different from Mulan's, and her battle robe is not Mulan's kind of armor.

She could only cry that Tuoba Tao didn't give her what she wanted, how could she ever sense the biggest fear in the people around her pillow, and then do her best to soothe the fear that was deeply rooted in their hearts?

Mrs. He's eyes were terrifyingly bright, and she slowly made a big salute to He Mulan, so startled that He Mulan took a few steps back to avoid her heavily bowed forehead.

After thinking through everything, Mrs. He's body was full of endless fighting spirit, she raised her forehead with her hand, and said gratefully: "I finally understand why Your Majesty treats you so differently, General Hua, you are indeed worthy of everyone's trust." You're right, unwillingness and tears can't change anything. ”

She looked up, her eyes full of enthusiasm and longing to rediscover her purpose and faith.

"I may not be able to change Your Majesty, but I can make my son, my grandson, face a better world. Thanks for the click, I know what I need to do. ”

There were even embarrassed tears on her face, but no matter how she looked at it, the current Mrs. He couldn't be equated with the "weak".

He Mulan can even be 100% sure that when Mrs. He hides her alluring appearance, she can still make countless people obsessed......

Because of her temperament, because of her firmness, it is completely different from before.

He Mulan even began to worry about Tuoba Tao, could he really handle the "awakened" Mrs. He? I'm afraid she's really "fully armed" now!

Mrs. He stood up slowly, bowed slightly, and then smiled at He Mulan with her head sideways.

"General Hua, I'm going to pick up my battle robes and go back to my battlefield, are you sure you're really leaving?"

Although the voice was gentle, it was deafening and deafening, and He Mulan's heart couldn't help but beat wildly.

He Mulan, who was still talking eloquently just now, covered his chest in shock, and he didn't dare to face this woman who was still hiding her face and crying just now. 166 Reading Network
