The Legend of the Concubine in the Harem
Chapter 353 Gently put a title here
"And why are you so fierce? Don't you see that I have a distinguished guest here? You've scared him..." Jun Yuexin complained.
Zeng Suqiu couldn't figure out whether the relationship between the brother and sister was good or bad, and she was confused and wanted to say that she was not scared.
However, Jun Yuexin did not stop talking: "...pay the money!"
These two words suddenly blocked Zeng Suqiu's words.
Seeing Jun Muxin tightening her grip on the armor, she finally took out a piece of silver and threw it to her sister: "My armor..."
"Have I washed it for you?" Jun Yuexin waved her hand and said, "How come you have time to rest and go home today?"
Jun Muxin looked at her resentfully, and forced out a few words from between his teeth: "...Please take a leave!"
Now it was Jun Yuexin's turn to be stunned - a mere turtle painted on the armor was not enough to make Jun Muchin rush back like that, and she had even secretly hidden women's clothes in his laundry bag before.
Realizing that something must have happened in the army, Jun Yuexin subconsciously looked back at Zeng Suqiu. Although the latter didn't understand, she realized that the next topic of the brother and sister was probably not suitable for her to listen to. However, this was her first time to come to her house, and it was to avoid disaster... For a moment, she became more and more at a loss.
Jun Yuexin first gave her brother a look to wait, then turned around and picked up Zeng Suqiu's hand: "I'll take you to my room, you take a rest first, and we can talk about the rest after dinner."
His attitude was very gentle and kind, completely different from the rogue look he had when facing his own brother, but it was also very effective and successfully made the uneasy Zeng Suqiu relax a little.
When Jun Yuexin came back after sending the people away, she saw Jun Muchen squatting on the doorstep carelessly, his hands constantly scraping the indelible ink off his armor.
"What exactly happened?" Jun Yuexin walked over and squatted beside him in the same way as her twin brother.
Jun Muxin was slightly startled by the sudden voice. He looked at his sister and said, "After you got the position of a centurion, the army began to discuss whether to recruit strong women from the prison guards as soldiers, so that you would have someone to use."
"So friendly?" Jun Yuexin raised her eyebrows. Although she had a good relationship with the soldiers in the Cavalry Battalion due to her brother's status, she was a woman after all. For a long time, it was considered ominous for women to enter the military camp. Although because of the open-minded atmosphere of the dynasty, there were some women serving as low-level prison guards and in the army, they were still a minority after all.
Jun Yuexin can use the title of his brother to practice with the soldiers of the Cavalry Battalion when they go out for training, but if he wants to actually enter the barracks, especially as an officer, there will naturally be obstacles.
"It's just a pretense. The jailers' wives have never been trained. Seeing that the army is about to set off, they may not even be able to keep up..." Jun Muchen said with a tired face, "They proposed this just to set a trap for you, so I rejected it for you. I know that there are actually female soldiers in the southwestern counties. When the time comes, I will assign a few trustworthy brothers to help you, and you can subdue those female soldiers by yourself, and..."
He looked at Jun Yuexin hesitantly and said, "We are about to go to war. As a captain, you can bring four personal soldiers with you. If there are any who you want to take with you for some training, pick two."
When they looked at each other, there was a tacit understanding that needed no words. Jun Yuexin then thought about the older girls in the orphanage who were good at martial arts and boxing. She quickly picked out two names in her mind and told them to Jun Muchen.
Jun Muxin nodded: "I will take care of things for you in the camp first, but after the battle, it will be up to you. You..."
"Don't worry, when have I ever been unreliable?" Jun Yuexin patted her brother's shoulder and added, "With the queen above us, the Ministry of War won't dare to erase my achievements."
"So confident?" The melancholy on Jun Muxin's face eased a little. "Southwest... We are all familiar with each other. You judge the situation yourself and don't be tricked by the superiors. I will also help you keep an eye on the rear."
"I will definitely return with merit this time. If I can use this opportunity to investigate what happened to my father, that would be great."
After these words were spoken, the brother and sister fell silent.
Their father, General Xian Zhenguo, died on the way back to Beijing from the southwest. On the surface, he died of his injuries, but after years of investigation, they found that there seemed to be something abnormal in the medicine their father took that year.
Among the several deputy generals who went on the expedition with the General Zhenguo at that time, there were General He who was already semi-retired, the Prince of Yingguo who had followed his sister in death, and the Marquis of Anguo who was the main general this time.
Of course, they were not the only ones, but they were the only ones who, after the death of the general, incorporated his trusted team and took in the general's personal guards under the pretext of taking care of wounded soldiers.
"As long as I stay in the capital, I will never let anyone in the army attack you from behind." Jun Muchen looked into his sister's eyes and promised in a serious tone.
Jun Yuexin said "Oh" in a long tone: "Then good brother, please give me some more silver. My little Heixue needs to eat more bean cakes so that he can run."
Jun Muxin: "...You have already taken away half a month's salary from me."
"Alas, there is nothing I can do. My salary as a captain has not been paid yet. I came home too late and climbed over the wall before, accidentally stepping on my mother's favorite pot of chrysanthemums. All my pocket money for this month has been deducted." Jun Yuexin spread her hands, "Please have pity on me~"
Jun Muxin shuddered suddenly and jumped up from the threshold: "You you you..."
He was covered in goosebumps and quickly took off the purse from his waist and threw it to his sister without even looking at it.
Jun Yuexin happily weighed the money, poured out a handful of loose change and a few copper coins from her purse, and threw the purse back to Jun Muxin: "Here, I left some for you."
Jun Muxin frowned and opened his purse with doubt. There was only a single bare copper coin inside, which was only enough for him to buy a bowl of coarse tea on the roadside to quench his thirst when he returned to the camp...
She’s really my sister!
He didn't say anything, just hung up his purse, threw away his armor, and went back to the house.
Jun Yuexin turned around while humming a little tune, and after taking two steps, she saw her mother standing at the corner of the room.
Madam Ye didn't know how long she had been listening here. She looked at Jun Yuexin and sighed heavily. She didn't mean to blame her, but took out a few things from her bosom: "I made a new pair of hand and knee guards for you. Try them on. If you feel uncomfortable, bring them to me for modification. Don't always bully your brother. Also, I've told you so many times not to sit by the door!"
She stuffed the hand and knee guards into her daughter's arms angrily: "You know how to bring friends home but don't know how to entertain them properly. What did I do wrong in my previous life to have to suffer with you two!"
