Don't be clouded

Chapter 81 The Book People

Since the two broke up yesterday, Ji Bieyun still stayed at the prestigious academy, but Guan Chen never came back, and Ji Bieyun had no intention of actively looking for someone.

After four years in Shugu City, Ji Bieyun has already learned how to protect himself. He will no longer be petty like he was when he was a child, and he has also abandoned unnecessary childish behavior.But this time, his useless and untimely persistence ran back again, supporting him not to bow his head.

Just ignore him and ignore him, it's fine to be alone.

He secretly went to see the lotus in Xuexiao Lake.The lotus flowers that bloom in Buddhist temples are inherently reserved and old-fashioned, as if they grew out of the light of Buddha, and they are beautiful, but they lack the freedom and wildness of lotus flowers outside.

And he didn't want to admit that without Guan Chen's company, the scenery would be greatly reduced.

The only thing to be happy about is that Emperor Yuanhui finally let go today and was willing to assign Duan Wenfu to him.

As soon as Ji Bieyun changed his decadent and sickly state these days, he went straight down the mountain without knowing Guanchen.

Although nominally he belonged to You Xiaowei, he hadn't stayed in the barracks for long since he entered the palace to thank him after the Deng Que Meeting.As soon as he led the army, he went to Dali Temple to help, and then ran to Chongzhou. After returning to Beijing from Chongzhou, he didn't go to the Youxiaowei camp a few times. As a general, he felt really guilty.

Ji Bieyun is now on the same level as Shi Rui, but he is not used to it yet. He still salutes and calls him "General Shi" when he sees him.

"Healed well?" Shi Rui glanced at him with a smile in the tent of the Chinese army.

Ji Bieyun was a little ashamed, which general was not injured?But he recuperated at every turn, seeming to be delicate.

"Healed up." He lied very naturally, and felt at ease.The injury he suffered in Duan Mansion was lighter than Deng Que's, but he bled a lot, looked horrific, and didn't hurt his bones, and he was raised enough to fight at this level.

Although there is no frame to fight him now.

"General Ji," Shi Rui called out the title meaningfully, but he didn't mean anything maliciously, "I'm still a general after all, only brute force is not enough, and I have to learn how to dispatch troops in wartime and how to lead the army in leisure time. Youxiaowei has more than ten thousand people, how to manage these people is a matter of knowledge."

Ji Bieyun said along: "So I have to ask General Shi, please give me your advice."

"Then you can't stay at the house all day, otherwise where would I teach you?" Shi Rui walked to the desk, picked from a lot of things on the table, found a booklet and threw it to him.

Ji Bieyun reached out to catch it, and caught a glimpse of the name on the cover, which looked like a military book, but he had never heard of it.

"Let's see for yourself first. If you don't understand, feel free to ask me. I just hope that General Ji will not be lazy and learn as quickly as possible." Shi Rui said, "I am getting old, and I don't want to go through the battlefield again. I just wait for the younger generation to have a future. You can also retire and return home."

He subconsciously retorted: "But you are only forty-three."

"Yeah, I'm 43." General Shi said with emotion, "I think I was still your age when I followed the late emperor to conquer the north and south, and I enjoyed a peaceful life for more than twenty years. Time wasted..."

Ji Bieyun once inquired about Shi Rui's experience, so he naturally knew that he was the founding general of the country.

But standing in front of him at this moment, it is still difficult for him to try to imagine his youthful appearance from this face that has gone through the years.But everyone has a young age, and General Shi may have been more energetic back then. He was on horseback at the age of less than a crown, standing on the battlefield with a knife.

He was a little lost in thought.

"The imperial censor platform has fallen, and the Holy Majesty may transfer people from other places to fill the vacancy, and the forces in the court have changed." Although he said this, Shi Rui's tone was normal, as if it was commonplace, "Fortunately, You Xiaowei never Take refuge in any side, no matter what happens in the future, there will be a way for You Xiaowei to survive."

Ji Bieyun heard that these words were not just casually, as if they were specifically for him, so he asked directly: "General Shi feels that the future is not peaceful, do you hope that You Xiaowei will stay out of it all the time?"

Shi Rui looked at him for a while, then shook his head, "You don't seem like the kind of clumsy person, that's all, I don't want anything. If you have the ability to lead You Xiaowei to make meritorious service, the soldiers should be happy too. As for My own wishes are not important. Everyone has their own destiny, the same for You Xiaowei, and the same for Daliang, I can't change anything."

After all, he let out a sigh of relief.

Ji Bieyun can actually understand the other party's mentality.

From the troubled times to the present, Shi Rui has naturally seen countless scrambles and conspiracies. You Xiaowei has always been calm in his hands, and it is indispensable for him to steer the helm secretly to mediate.Saying these words to Ji Bieyun now seems to be really tired, and he can't wait to find a junior to hand over the responsibility.

But in the past 20 years, You Xiaowei has already become Shi Rui's painstaking effort.After handing it over, Shi Rui cared about You Xiaowei's future, but he could no longer control it, and everything had nothing to do with him anymore.

Ji Bieyun silently put the book of war into his pocket, raised his eyes and said, "What's General Shi's opinion on this battle between Duke Xiang and the Holy One?"

"Opinion?" Shi Rui was silent for a moment after being asked, then smiled suddenly, "I can only tell you one thing, don't underestimate the Ming family."

After Ji Bieyun walked out of the tent of the Chinese army, Shi Rui's inscrutable and mysterious appearance was still in his mind.That sentence was engraved in his mind, like a mantra, with inexhaustible meaning.

Could it be that Emperor Yuan Hui still has a back hand?

Dai Fengmao had been waiting for Ji Bieyun outside the account for a long time, and when he saw that he was out of control after he came out, he called out worriedly: "Boss?"

Ji Bieyun snapped back to his senses, "Let's go, go to Duanfu to get someone."

Captain Dai became excited, and took out a whip from the back of his waist, "I just sharpened the knife, and this whip has just been soaked in pepper water. If Duan Wenfu refuses to obey, I will beat him to relieve my hatred."

He glanced at the whip, inexplicably felt his back scratched, and quickly looked away.

"Put the whip away, we are going to bring the subordinates back to the camp in name, and the torture will be done quietly after returning." He said, "Besides, why do you hate Duan Wenfu? When did he provoke you?"

"Why can't you hate?" Dai Fengmao retorted angrily, "How many crimes has he committed with Yushitai? And you forgot the last time you went to Duanfu, he told someone..."

"Stop, stop," Ji Bieyun quickly cut off the conversation when he saw that there were still soldiers coming and going nearby, "I haven't been to Duan's mansion before today, don't talk nonsense."

When they reached the door, there were already a dozen people waiting with their horses.After Ji Bieyun softly said "Let's go", everyone jumped on their horses.

Ji Bieyun also held the rein, and turned his head to look at Dai Fengmao, "We're going to 'invite' someone this time, it's best not to do anything, but you can use your yin and yang skills."

Dai Xiaowei's face changed, "Boss, I don't know how to be weird!"

A broken voice came from the team: "General! I don't know how to be weird, but I can just swear!"

Ji Bieyun turned around and saw that it was that brat Zhuo Anping, who was honestly wearing armor today and looked decent.

He smiled, turned around and said to himself: "It's okay, I will do it."

A group of people entered Chenjing City and went straight to Duan Mansion.

Finally, he stopped in front of the gate of Duan Mansion without even getting off the horse.Dai Fengmao cleared his throat, and shouted to the guard at the door: "General You Xiaowei Ji is here, let Duan Wenfu come out!"

Duan Wenfu is white now, and his servant has nothing to rely on. Seeing that the battle was frightening, he hurried inside to report the news.

After a while, more and more people gathered at the door, and some passing people also stopped to watch the excitement.

Yushitai was notorious, but the court claimed that Duan Wenfu didn't know about those dirty things, but the rule was lax.The common people are not fools. Although they dare not disagree with the results posted by the court, they all understand that everyone in Yushitai is the same.

Ji Bieyun also knew this truth, so he came here today not only to take someone, but also with a narrow but strong sense of revenge.

He knew that he was not a gentleman who would repay grievances directly, but the hatred was hard to dispel, and he couldn't help imagining that his enemy would also be ruined.Besides, Duan Wenfu was guilty in the first place, he comforted himself that he was just doing justice for the sky with a little arrogance.

Being spurned by the people and ridiculed by the world, Duan Wenfu should have experienced it.

Although he thought so, Ji Bieyun's excited heart gradually calmed down.

When he saw the door of Duan Mansion opened and Duan Wenfu came out, he didn't feel any emotional ups and downs, not even happy.

All the past is connected to the present, which seems to be an absurd script. As a witness, he can only be as powerless as a bystander.

Duan Wenfu was still well dressed, but his expression was numb.As if knowing his end, he walked up to his horse without asking anything, raised his head and said, "Where is General Ji going to take me?"

He was a little disgusted to see this person's face, and said coldly: "Your Majesty appointed you to join the army as my secretary."

"Okay," Duan Wenfu actually smiled, "I don't know how to get to the Youxiaowei camp? General Ji probably won't allow me to ride in a carriage, and there doesn't seem to be any horses for me here."

Ji Bieyun looked away, and lightly pinched the horse's belly with his legs, "Follow, walk back."

Duan Wenfu, who was left behind him, raised his voice and said: "You want me to parade in the street? Even the Holy Majesty never said that I have any guilt!"

One person and one horse passed through the crowded crowd to make a way.He looked back and replied without any emotion: "Yes, I want to parade you through the streets."
