Yu Le originally wanted to ambush Wu Huai'en during the retreat, but this guy just wasn't fooled, and had no intention of chasing Yu Le. Because he had gained Guizhou again, there was no need to fight Yu Le.
Yu Le was unwilling to give in. This damn eunuch is so cunning! The team of 8,000 people returned to Quanzhou easily. Yu Le met Leng Gang. When he heard that Leng Gang had recovered the bodies of the sacrificed student soldiers, Yu Le burst into tears.
All the corpses of more than a hundred student soldiers were cremated. Yu Le had an urn ordered for each martyr, marked with their names and sent back to Lushan County. Each family member was also given a thousand taels of pension, which Yu Le paid privately. , and also applied for state pensions for the dead martyrs in the memorial.
"Your Majesty, could Yu Le be the mastermind behind this mutiny?" Feng Yansi lost no time in attacking Yu Le.
Li Jing looked at Feng Yansi with an expressionless face! Feng Yansi felt anxious after seeing this, wondering if he had said the wrong thing again.
"Do you fucking have a pig's brain? Tell me, how did a fifteen-year-old kid launch this mutiny? Why did he act like this?"
"Ah! Wei Chen deserves to die, Wei Chen is just guessing."
"Test your NM! How old are you, but you still have trouble with children every day? If you encounter such a situation, can you bring these 8,000 people back to me?"
"Weak ministers deserve to die, humble ministers deserve death." Feng Yan has already scolded Li Jing. Li Jing is now angry because of the defeat in the war. He is still picking on others and pouting. Can Li Jing not scold him?
"Come here, tell me my will. Yu Le, who has been promoted to Secretary Cheng for meritorious service in this battle, is still concurrently serving as Sima of the military academy. He can lead the student army back home. Each student soldier killed in the battle will be compensated one thousand taels of silver. In addition, many of the officers he promoted will be carried out by the Ministry of War. Review and use those who pass the test.”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After receiving the imperial edict, Yu Le and the new Quanzhou Governor Ling Yunfei completed the handover and led more than 300 student troops back to Lushan County. There were no songs and laughter along the way, everyone was silent, and there was no joy after the war. The sad thoughts, the dead comrades and classmates, it seems that yesterday we were playing together, but now some of them are buried underground, separated by the sky. How unpredictable things are!
Yu Le reviewed his expedition. He was really too young. Although he had more than forty years of modern experience, it was still not enough. If he did not trust Zhang Luan and Cheng Hao, he would not let the students die. , but if you don’t trust anyone, then how can you survive! Humans are inherently social animals! Yu Le was very conflicted at this time, forget it, go home and hug his wife! Let yourself go first!
Yu Le calculated the time to enter the city, it was at Zishi. The reason why they did not choose to enter the city in broad daylight was that they were not victorious in the first place. They should be regarded as surviving after the disaster. In order to commemorate the dead classmates, they could not celebrate.
"Master, why aren't you asleep yet?" Yu Le quietly entered his mansion and saw his master Tan Qiao standing in the middle of the courtyard, seemingly waiting for him.
"Why did you come back secretly? You didn't do anything wrong." Tan Qiao came to the city when he knew about Yu Lezi, because Yu Le notified his master in advance to open the city gate for his team.
After hearing what his master said, Yu Le knelt down to his master with tears in his eyes and said, "Master, I, because of my mistake, more than a hundred students died. I, I deserve to die!"
Tan Qiao looked at Yu Le who was kneeling on the ground and couldn't help but sigh and said: "I have received your letter. As you said, people's hearts are unpredictable! Even brothers know how to settle accounts in the face of interests, let alone not relatives. Where's my brother? Get up! It's impossible for a human being not to make mistakes. You're still young and the road ahead is still long. This is just a small setback. Don't be knocked down by it. Believe in yourself. Besides, you also have a long way to go for the students. I have taken my revenge, and I am worthy of them. This man! He must believe in his fate!" After saying that, he turned around and returned to his room.
Yu Le watched the master enter the room and then got up and entered his bedroom. At this time, Ehuang was deeply asleep. Since he knew that his husband had returned to Quanzhou safely and was about to come back, his heart finally calmed down and he could sleep peacefully.
Hee hee, so warm! When Yu Le held Ehuang in his arms, Ehuang didn't wake up. He just felt a stove beside him and felt so comfortable, just like before.
"Ah!" Yu Le was startled by the harsh cry, what's wrong! What's wrong! Yu Le was still dizzy when he saw Ehuang staring at him. "What's wrong, wife!" Yu Le thought something had happened to Emperor E.
When Ehuang woke up, what caught his eye was Yu Le's handsome face. Ehuang was shocked, was he dreaming? Untrue! Ehuang pinched himself, it hurt! It was true, and then he screamed, the dead man finally came back. Ehuang threw herself into Yu Le's arms and cried loudly. The dam of long-term longing finally broke. Yu Le was also upset when he cried.
Ehuang cried until the pear blossoms were raining, and Yu Le felt distressed when he saw it. At this time, he carefully observed Ehuang, thin and emaciated, "The clothes are getting wider and wider, but I will never regret it. I am so thin that I am haggard." This should be what he wrote. Love this scene!
Yu Le finally coaxed Ehuang, and after they freshened up, they had breakfast with their master Tan Qiao.
"Ms. sir, just take a good rest at home! When you recover, go to the military academy for duty." Emperor E gave the order.
"Ehuang is right, you should stay at home!" Master Tan Qiao cared about his beloved disciple.
"I have to go to the homes of the students who died to express my condolences. I can't just let it go. I feel uneasy!"
"Oh! You have to be prepared for a beating." Tan Qiao knew that there are many ignorant people in the countryside, especially if a promising son dies in the family. Gold, but someone will definitely make a mistake.
"I can bear it."
"The casualties this time are not small. Although casualties are normal in wars, this is a blow to the military academy. It is estimated that it will be very difficult to recruit students again." Tan Qiao said very reasonably. Most ordinary people have forgotten their benefits and suffered a loss. They will remember it for a lifetime, and they will also spread a lot of negative news that they think is right. Yu Le is not ready yet, at least mentally and mentally.
Yu Le is also discouraged. He is not short of money now. He can live his own life with plenty, so what else do he want! For the people of the world? Hum, when it comes to praise, when it’s not, you criticize, the general public is like this. When vital interests are involved, how many people can really stand up! There are always more bears than heroes!
"Ms. sir, shall I go with you?" Ehuang seemed to be having fun, but in fact he was causing trouble.
"No, just wait for me at home! I will ask Wei Cheng and Li Guang to go with them. Don't worry about my safety."
When the people in Lushan County thought that when Yu Le led his army back, the county magistrate would greet him with gongs and drums, they did not expect that it would be peaceful, without any ceremony, and it would just pass by quietly, and the students who returned home would also silently greet them. The family reunited without any fanfare. This actual combat let everyone know what a life and death moment is, and also why Yu Le let the students get close to actual combat training in the military academy. It was to save their lives!
