Chapter 925 Admiral Red Makeup
At this moment, the old marshal remembered a lot about Leng Yuan.
I remembered the bloody letter from the first year of the Banghuai period, the lonely battle of the bandits in the southwest, the passionate and bloody "Anti-Bandits" of the first Northern Expedition, the Fenglangjuxu in the mountains of the northern country, and the lone courage to defend Mohebei and lead the army to pounce on the grief ridge.
But at the same time, the old marshal remembered other things about Leng Yuan.
I remembered the 700,000 creatures that were massacred in Sanchang, the 6,000 Central Guards and the 2,000 Dragon Guards who were defeated and were destroyed by the snowfield, the hawks who took over power after the central position was vacant, the adoption of the poisonous plan of the 14th Empire Plenary Session, the cup of poisonous wine given to his mentor on Noah's Ark, and the desperate attempt to save innocent girls during the dawn change, and finally the song "Eagle Flag World".
For a moment, two completely different Leng Yuan appeared in the old marshal's mind at the same time. They were tangled in conjunction and confused. Sometimes they were righteous and sometimes cold and vicious. The previous second was still so energetic, and the next second was blood stained with hands.
The old marshal didn't even know which one was the real Leng Yuan. He tried to peel off the two and told himself that one of them was the real Leng Yuan and the other was a disguise, but he found that no matter which one was taken seriously or which one was taken as a disguise, there would be a subtle sense of disharmony.
And when there was a moment when two completely different images overlapped and merged into one, the old marshal realized that his previous perception had always been wrong.
The one who received the letter from the bloody family was not Leng Yuan, the one who waved the butcher's knife to the common people in Sanchang was not Leng Yuan, the one who wrote the "Expression of the Rebels" was not Leng Yuan, the one who decided to adopt the Mo Qian's poisonous plan, the one who sealed the wolf's servant's servant was not Leng Yuan, and the one who refused to save him when he was dead was not Leng Yuan.
No matter what is taken out alone, it cannot represent Leng Yuan. Only when they are all mixed together and combine these good, bad, righteous, vicious, brave, and despicable, can they be the real general.
The expression in the old marshal's eyes changed several times, just like the sun rising and setting in this vast world, everything rises and falls, and the stars change in the sky, just like after several centuries, a great dream of spring and autumn, and finally returning to the present, it has changed dramatically, as if it was a different world.
"Master Marshal?" Leng Yuan did not seem to notice the strangeness in the old marshal's eyes. She only thought that it was the old marshal who was dissatisfied with this song, so she thought for a while and said tentatively, "If Master Marshal doesn't like this song, I will not accept it as a military song, and I will listen to you all."
"Ah?...oh... it's okay, you just like it, don't ask me." The old marshal came back from his trance, and a certain emotion in his eyes quietly went out, and it seemed that he would never appear again. He trembledly took out a small box from his arms, patted his forehead, and muttered, "Look at me, I'm so confused, I almost forgot about my birthday gift for you."
Leng Yuan did not dare to neglect the gift from the Grand Marshal. She stretched out her hands to take the box respectfully and asked curiously: "This is..."
The old marshal's answer made Leng Yuan tremble all over: "This is the red makeup left by your mother during her lifetime."
Leng Yuan touched the small box with her trembling fingers and muttered: "Hongzhuang..."
The general died in a hundred battles. In this era of collapse, how could there be female soldiers using red makeup? Everyone is facing the sky, and Leng Yuan is the same.
"Hahaha... it's been more than ten years later, and the shelf life has passed early, so it's definitely not possible to use it." The old marshal smiled and patted Leng Yuan's hand, saying in a kind tone unique to elders, "But your mother always had a wish before her death. She hoped that one day, you could use red makeup."
This so-called wish seems very simple, isn’t it just to use red makeup? As Leng Yuan’s current general, wouldn’t it be easy to buy a box of red makeup? Just buy Laiwen and paint it on his face.
However, Leng Luan's wish left behind was not as simple as Hongzhuang itself.
What does Hongzhuang do? Hongzhuang makes girls beautiful.
When will girls want to become beautiful? Naturally, it is the time to pursue their children's love.
Then when can we pursue the love of children without any scruples?
Only peaceful and prosperous times.
For a general, the day when red makeup is on his face is the time when the world is settled.
When Leng Yuan thought of her deceased mother, a layer of mist was covered in Leng Yuan's eyes. She pulled the corners of her mouth, squeezed out a smile with difficulty, put the box of red makeup into the deepest part of her clothes, and said hoarsely: "Yuan must do her best."
For some reason, when he heard Leng Yuan's answer, the old marshal sighed deeply, as if his spine was being pulled off, leaned weakly onto the chair, closed his eyes and said, "I feel a little uncomfortable... Take me back to rest first..."
"Master Marshal, take care of your health..." Liu Fusu quickly stood up and waved his hand to signal the attendant to come over.
Because the old marshal was old, the medical team had prepared many emergency plans. At this time, Liu Fusu waved his hand and responded immediately. He directly carried the medicine box in case of emergency. At the same time, he brought a wheelchair over to prepare for transportation for the old marshal.
When the old marshal saw the wheelchair being raised to him, he smiled angrily, reached out and pushed the wheelchair away, held the handle of the seat and stood up, and blamed him: "I'm not a lame again, just help me! Isn't it a joke to the generals when I was pushed off by the wheelchair for good reason?"
"Yes... Is it a negligence?" Liu Fusu winked at the attendant and signaled to remove the wheelchair quickly.
Leng Yuan stood up and said, "Master Marshal, I'll help you."
The old marshal did not look at Leng Yuan, but instead put his shoulder on Liu Fusu and said, "Fusu, help me go back."
This detail episode didn't attract much attention.
With the help of Liu Fusu, the old marshal staggered towards the backstage. The generals below noticed something strange, stopped the bowls and wine glasses, stood up and watched the old marshal.
Before leaving, the old marshal suddenly stopped, turned slowly, looked at the worried Leng Yuan, and muttered: "Yuan...don't forget your original intention..."
Leng Yuan was a little confused. Original intention? What does the old marshal mean? She tried to search for information about "original intention" in her mind, but there were too many things and changes that she had experienced over the past 16 years, so she couldn't tell what the old marshal meant.
Leng Yuan was about to ask for advice, but found that the old marshal had walked away with the help of the servant and disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Leng Yuan didn't catch up with her. Anyway, the future was long, so she would just have a chat with the old marshal after a while. She picked up her wine glass, turned around and walked down the stage and drank with the generals, and she would do her best to have the friendship of the landlords.
