Only Lou Jingde's two trusted lieutenants and his own five hundred...no, only one hundred personal soldiers were left. The four hundred also stood behind Mr. Di.
Lou Jingde: "..."
He stared with big eyes, pointed with trembling fingers at the people running to Di Ying, bit his lower lip and said: "You guys can do it! So why don't you want to see me so much? Are you loyal to me as promised? What about sharing weal and woe as promised? What about sharing life and death as promised? Huh?"
But the soldiers all snickered.
One of the soldiers suppressed his laughter, raised one hand and shouted: "But he is Master Di Yingdi! We personally are loyal to you, general, but our families and relatives all belong to Di Yingdi." Master Di is in charge. The one who is loyal is Master Di. You can’t blame our brothers for this general."
As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion.
"Yes, yes, who made him Master Di? General, please take care of yourself."
"General, you have been promoted. We brothers can't hinder your career, can we? Please walk slowly, and remember not to forget us."
"General, please go with confidence. We will definitely listen to Lord Di and protect Lord Di."
"General..."
They shouted one by one, barely waving at their general to "drive him away".
At the end of the day, someone was so happy that he yelled this.
"General, that's Master Di. Can we fight to the other side of the Great Wall?"
All the soldiers: "..."
Di Ying: "..."
Lou Jingde: "..."
All the soldiers were stunned for a moment, and then they all got excited. While he was complaining in his heart that the boy who shouted was not saving face for his general, he kept raising his fists and shouting in unison.
"Follow Mr. Di and fight across the Great Wall!"
"Follow Mr. Di and cross the Great Wall!!"
"Follow Mr. Di and cross the Great Wall!!"
"..."
Lou Jingde: "..."
He nodded at the little brats again and headed towards Di Ying.
Until close.
Then he changed his face.
He punched Di Ying on the shoulder, and then said with a smile on his face: "I originally wanted to help you establish military prestige so that you can smoothly command the army in the future. Unexpectedly, you actually relied on your own reputation to lose the morale of the army. Captured. You can do it!"
"Are you still going to fight?" Di Ying asked with a smile.
"What a fight. You still think my defeat is not ugly enough?" Lou Jingde laughed "haha".
Then he raised his fist and faced Di Ying.
Then, Lou Jingde waved his hand.
Everyone, including Lou Jingde, stood at attention in an instant - their faces were straight, their helmets were solemn, their gear was in gear, and they were standing at attention.
"boom!"
There was a sound of one knee landing in unison.
He clasped his fists, lowered his head, and shouted: "Welcome Mr. Di!"
Di Ying's eyes turned slightly red immediately. She cupped her fists and bowed to return the salute to the soldiers.
Then he said hurriedly: "Get up, brothers."
"Uh-huh!"
They all stood up and shouted.
Then……
crazy!
He laughed like crazy, gathered around, and started chatting with Master Di.
Until they were dispersed by Lou Jingde.
When they all returned to the camp excitedly and made various preparations to welcome Lord Di.
Lou Jingde once again knelt down on one knee towards Di Ying.
He cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Master Di, for your forgiveness."
Di Ying bent down and pulled the man up, patted his shoulder again, smiled and shook his head.
Lou Jingde pursed his lips, pressed his eyelids, then took a step sideways, bowed and stretched out his hand, "Master Di, please!"
Di Ying gently held his wrist, and the two of them went to the camp hand in hand.
Zhou Lin and other forty-three guards: "???"
The style of painting changed again and again, and they were confused again and again.
The most confusing thing is: What kind of kindness? The grace of forgiveness? Where did it come from?
Only Peng Liang's starry eyes flickered.
He noticed that there were some tattoos on Lou Jingde's wrist.
Peng Liang had seen that pattern before.
It was the home of the villagers who suddenly disappeared in the three mountains.
No wonder you didn’t pursue the secret passage at that time...
It turns out that those people...
The money robbed from the homes of evil powerful people not only helped the people, but also helped the army...
No wonder when Lou Jingde touched his face, he felt like he was meeting a relative when meeting the adults...
No wonder...
Peng Liang didn't think about it anymore.
He called the guards and went to "fight" with the powerful generals in the army.
The tough guys in the army are not praised, followed, or praised, but are beaten to the ground with their fists.
Friendship and respect are also expressed in this way.
Bowls of stew, huge steamed buns, piles of bonfires, smiling faces...
This is their most solemn and happiest feast!
When some people only eat the skin of roasted whole sheep, only eat the eyes of fish, and only eat the piece of meat in the duck paw...
The soldiers who had gone through the bitter cold at the border and were bleeding with blood and sweat chewed up even the sheep bones and swallowed them in their stomachs. And they still saved the lives of those people.
When those in armor fall, it is time for those in gold and silver to kneel.
In the following January, Di Ying received the request from the old emperor to spend millions of silver coins to cast the pagoda Buddha statue.
Then he invited the soldiers to eat another meal of meat. However, this time they were not allowed to swallow the chewed bones.
Instead, they chewed it up, took one bite at a time, and spit it into a big box.
Then, with great haste, Di Ying sent someone to send the box of bones crushed with his teeth back to the capital city and to the old emperor.
The old emperor initially did not know what it was and did not understand its meaning. After it has been officially examined by Taiyuan Hospital...
Sitting there for two hours.
The plan to cast the Buddha statue was then cancelled.
And once again issued the order to cut back on food and clothing, reduce taxes and eliminate taxes.
The rich people cried, and the poor people laughed.
…
In July, the sun is as scorching as fire. The earth seemed to be roasted, and air waves visible to the naked eye were steaming on the ground.
Sicang and Tian Wu of Yizhou went home with a cart full of things.
Qingfan County and County Magistrate Tian Jiacong were very happy.
If it weren't for the fact that the things Tian Wu brought home were all twisted things that were not suitable for seeing the light, Tian Jiacong would have wanted to beat gongs and drums, light whips and candles to welcome Tian Wu back home.
After the lively dinner, the family was reluctant to leave and kept talking until late at night.
The next day, after Tian Jiacong waited for Tian Wu to rest, the father and son started talking in the study.
"Wu'er, what do you want to talk to your father? Are you trying to persuade your father to seek refuge with Wu Qiongsi?" After the tea was served, Tian Jiacong asked directly.
After hearing this, Tian Wu nodded and said: "Yes. Father, you also know that every time your son sends you back, he does not get it from the right way. If anything happens, only Master Qiongsi can save it." Stay with you and our whole family.
Besides, don't you really find it annoying to stay in this small county town and be the county magistrate? Do you really not want to go any further? Even if you don't want to, what about your sons? Our sons can't just stop moving forward like this, right?
Now only Mr. Qiongsi has the most power in the court. Our family's wealth is already rich enough. He likes to collect money to do things, so let's give it to him. If you can get a second or third-grade official by then, your whole family will fly up to it. Even if it is fourth grade, it can still shine on the lintel, right? "
