Beijing.
"Now that the clue is broken, what should we do next?"
By this time, Xingyun also knew that it would be impossible to find Luoyin for a while.
"Luoyin escaped with a single blow. She is probably no longer in the capital. As for where she is hiding, who knows."
"I think we need to protect the family members of Taishu Yi and others first, and simply move them to a safe place."
"After this is done, we will gather the people and settle things in the capital. Bi She and I will go north, and you will take charge in the capital." Zi Yan said slowly.
"Then let's do it as you say." Xingyun nodded.
Seeing Dong Shangqing die helplessly, Xingyun felt quite upset and was not in the mood to think too much.
"Are there any changes in the capital these days?" Zi Yan asked.
A while ago, she was working in the north and didn't pay much attention to or understand the affairs in the capital.
Xingyun has been sitting in the capital, and he does know more than she does.
"The Feng family is very low-key, and the people at Dongling Academy are not making any noise. The capital has not changed much."
"It's true that several county princes have worked very hard in the training team." Xing Yuan said.
"That's natural. The princes are working hard. Their goal is to get that position. How can they not go all out."
"However, none of them dare to contact the hidden guards...colluding with the hidden guards is a serious crime. They don't have the courage." Zi Yan curled her lips.
"Then forget about the princes, Zi Yan, are you really going to the north with only three hundred people? Is this enough people?" Xing Yuan frowned.
"That's enough. I didn't go to the north to join the army and fight. I went to integrate the martial arts world in the north."
"The people in the Northern Jianghu are not weak, but they are scattered and cannot be used by the court."
Purple smoke.
"Where are you going to start?" Xingyun asked.
"Don't ask so many questions. I don't know myself. No matter what, after I go there, I will take one step at a time and there will always be a way to achieve my goal." Zi Yan said.
"Since you are already confident, I won't say much else. I will only say that you should pay attention to safety when you go to the north. Also, protect Chen'er." Xingyun said.
"Do you know what is most annoying about you?" Zi Yan raised her eyebrows.
"Hate it?" Xingyun asked doubtfully.
"Don't understand?" Zi Yan said lightly.
"It's annoying if you tell people in advance what others are going to do."
Zi Yan gave the reason.
Xingyun touched his chin and said nothing.
The more you say this, the more mistakes you make.
Think about it and don't bother with Zi Yan.
…
Bailudong Academy.
In a study room.
Sitting inside, you can hear the sounds of students reading aloud nearby.
Yang Ruoqing invested in Bailudong Academy. After giving enough money, the life of Bailudong Academy gradually became better, and many new students with good potential were recruited.
Mr. Zhang Taiyue, Master Yuelu, sat with Taishu Yi for a long time and chatted for a while.
"Ren Qingyuan is very good. It is inevitable that he will become a Jinshi in the future. General, you don't have to worry." Zhang Taiyue said.
"I don't worry about whether he can be a Jinshi. As long as he can live a good life and live like a human being, my wish is enough."
After so many years of imprisonment, when he suddenly saw his biological son, Taishu Yi could not be harsh, and all he felt in his heart was love and guilt.
"Ren Qingyuan has an upright character and is polite to others. He is a good boy. If he doesn't live like a human being, there will be few people in the world who live like a human being." Zhang Taiyue said with a slight smile.
"Master is right, my child must be excellent."
Taishu Yi's tone was full of pride. In addition, he also had a great impression of Zhang Taiyue.
He kept praising his children at Zhang Taiyue, which proved that Zhang Taiyue was a good master.
"A man fights bloody battlefields, fighting with swords and spears, just to keep his wife and his wife. Master, I will leave my children to you. I will come to see you again when I return from the Northern Expedition."
Taishu Yi stood up and saluted Zhang Taiyue respectfully.
The Lord of Heaven and Earth is his teacher, and a teacher like Zhang Taiyue deserves his respect.
"General, please focus on state affairs and leave your family affairs to us. Don't worry."
Zhang Taiyue also solemnly returned the gift.
…
Five days later, there was a large campus in the capital.
The wind was blowing hard, and the northwest wind from the north began to blow south.
On the main campus, flags were flying, and the sergeants lined up in neat lines, looking at the stage.
Looking closely from a distance, you can see that many of those sergeants have gray hair on their temples. They are no longer young, but when their former commander calls for a call, no matter how far apart they are, they will arrive and gather together again under the command of the commander. Under his command!
"Deng Deng Deng!"
Taishu Yi walked slowly up to the high platform.
Behind him were Gao Yiming and Wang Xiuwen.
Tai Shuyi took a deep breath and looked at his former subordinates below. His chest seemed to be blocked by a big stone. He wanted to speak, but seemed to be choked.
"brothers!"
"My uncle Yi, I want to apologize to you today."
"Over the years, I have betrayed everyone's trust, failed to bring everyone glory, and failed to give everyone a decent life."
After saying that, Taishu Yi bent down and bowed deeply.
Then, there was silence.
After the silence, there was a huge roar and shout, like thunder.
"Commander, we will follow you to the death!"
"Follow me to the death!"
"Follow me to the death!"
The soldiers shouted enthusiastically, their eyes filled with enthusiasm and pride for the commander-in-chief.
Yes, they are proud. Even after so many years, their military spirit is still there and has not dissipated!
Taishu Yi slowly stood up straight, his eyes already turning red.
This scene was unexpected by him.
He hadn't even arrived yet, but after so many years, his former subordinates still supported him and respected him so much.
How could we let down such subordinates and brothers?
He glanced over slowly.
Those familiar faces have lost their youthfulness and youthfulness in the past, and many of them are covered with wind and frost, which are traces of having withstood the tempering of life.
"brothers!"
"Many years later, we meet again, and we are about to go to the front line."
"I know you will be a little worried. In fact, I am the same."
"But, we have no retreat."
"If Qishan Pass is lost, the Beili rebels will move southward."
"Behind us are our relatives, our mothers, fathers, wives, and children!"
"We cannot retreat and let our relatives be trampled on by the rebels."
"If they want to enter, please step over my uncle Yi's body!"
Taishu Yi suddenly pulled out his sword and raised it high.
His eyes were bright.
"I can't guarantee that you won't die in the battle, but I can guarantee that I will stand with you!"
"Do not abandon, do not give up!"
