Lin was also silent.
He stood in front of the monument in the cemetery without saying a word. Remembering the martyrs is a solemn and sacred thing.
It rained heavily.
But as quickly as it came, it stopped just as quickly.
At dusk.
The temperature in the Soldiers Cemetery was a bit low, and the young men were trembling slightly from the cold.
Lin Yi waved his hand to summon Zhao Tai and said: "Don't let these teenagers freeze, prepare food and shelter, and let them spend the night in the city!"
"yes!"
Zhao Tai nodded in agreement and immediately gave the order.
The memorial ceremony continues.
After Lin Yi presented flowers, the officers and soldiers of the Northern Army and officials from the Ministry of Rites handed each of them a flower.
They placed flowers in front of the monument and said silently in their hearts: Rest in peace, our predecessors, it is our duty to protect the north!
Later, officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs also sang sacrificial words.
From beginning to end, Lin Yi didn't say a word.
The old man had already said some words on his behalf.
Some words are better left unsaid than anything else.
After all the sessions were over, Lin Yi took the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army, said goodbye to the lame old man, and prepared to return.
The lame old man was flattered and led the young men to bow and bow to each other.
On the way back.
All the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army were silent.
The first lesson at Taishan Academy was a huge shock to their hearts.
Unexpectedly, in the capital city so far away from the northern border, there was a cemetery set up by the imperial court to commemorate their northern soldiers.
But they... are all soldiers of King Zhenbei.
Those names are so strange, yet so kind.
They were all unknown soldiers who once fought for Dayan through life and death, but now the imperial court has set up a monument for them, and they will be commemorated from generation to generation.
Along the way, everyone had mixed emotions.
Everyone has their own thoughts.
First, there was the morning drink that made them feel more intimate and reminded them of their home and mother far away.
The subsequent memorial ceremony touched their hearts even more.
They couldn't help but think.
Will they fight for the King of Zhenbei throughout their lives? Or are you fighting for this country and the people of this country?
Lin Yi led the soldiers back to Taishan Academy and Military Academy.
Deng Bin has already arranged the dinner.
During the break.
A soldier from the Zhenbei Army suddenly spoke and said: "Brothers, don't be fooled by appearances. The prince's move is actually a plan to attack the heart!"
Someone echoed: "That's right, first have a morning drink, then lay flowers at the cemetery. To be honest, this is a psychological attack."
Some people said calmly: "It doesn't matter if you attack your heart, but at least the prince did it. Our Zhenbei Army...does our household registration belong to Dayan?"
"It's Dayan!"
"It's Dayan!"
Many soldiers also agreed.
"Don't forget, who trained us to be talented? It's the prince!" Another soldier spoke.
"But your lord...he also obeys your majesty's orders." A soldier said quietly.
Everyone was silent.
They each have their own ideas.
"Let's make a bet. Within this month, the prince will definitely try every means to win over us. The purpose is to make us betray King Zhenbei and submit to the imperial court!"
"Yes, I think if we don't agree, we may not be able to go back alive!"
"The prince's heart is known to everyone on the road!"
A few soldiers were a bit irritated and did not recognize the imperial court from the bottom of their hearts.
Those whose hearts were touched did not speak from the beginning to the end. They were not children and had their own judgments in their hearts.
at dinner.
Many soldiers thought that Prince Lin Yi would strike while the iron was hot and brainwash them.
But in the end...Prince Lin also didn't come at all.
gave them freedom.
the next day.
It is also a free activity.
The third day.
It is still free time to explore the entire Taishan Academy and appreciate the sacred scenery of the academy.
From the beginning to the end, Prince Lin also never came again. He Wancheng only passed the message on his behalf, telling them that they could do whatever they wanted in the military academy.
Refine your martial arts skills.
Sand table deduction.
Chess game.
…
It's up to them to choose.
As a result, many soldiers couldn't understand the long brainwashing lectures they had promised, but why didn't anyone come after the whole lesson?
The less Lin Yi comes, the more confused they become.
My heart became more and more anxious.
This isn't right.
It was very inconsistent with the routine that the prince had deduced.
…
In fact.
Lin Yice's desire to rebel was much lighter, mainly due to the lame old man and the group of young scholars, who had a lot of impact on him.
It also gave him some reflection.
something.
The more you rush to do something, it may be counterproductive. Sometimes you choose to let go and do what you should do as much as possible.
What is supposed to come will still come.
So Lin Yi stopped worrying and let everything take its course. Whether the soldiers of Zhenbei King could plant the seeds of serving the country and the people in their hearts depends entirely on fate.
But being intentional will definitely be counterproductive.
Because these soldiers were not stupid, King Zhenbei must have talked to them before setting off.
So there is no need to persuade with good words, promise benefits or anything, it is useless.
Go back to "The Art of War" and make some arrangements.
As for whether he will cultivate a powerful opponent... If you have this kind of intention, then don't think about doing big things.
Fearing the wolf before and the tiger behind will only accomplish nothing in the end.
Don't worry about doing some things, and leave the rest to time.
…
This night.
Lin Yi was studying and practicing in a bamboo hut. Suddenly, an idea struck him and he discovered that it was Zhao Tai who had stepped into the bamboo forest.
"Any news?"
Lin Yi was moved.
He once asked Zhao Tai to investigate a certain official of the Ministry of Rites and confirm the old man's identity and past.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
Zhao Tai's voice sounded outside the bamboo hut, Lin Yi waved, and the door opened.
Zhao Tai entered the bamboo hut and said, "Your Highness, the investigation has been completed!"
"explain!"
"The lame old man's name is Qin Chusheng. He is indeed from Yongfeng County, Huatian Prefecture. He opened a youth school in the early years. According to the investigation and interviews, it is completely consistent with what the old man said..."
Zhao Tai looked at Lin Yi with admiration in his eyes.
In the secular world, there are actually masters like Qin Chusheng.
But it is absolutely rare for people like Qin Chusheng to spend their whole lives not only not being restricted to cultivation, but also to train generations of ordinary bachelors at their own expense.
Let the children from poor families have books to read.
Let the children who are not literary have books to read.
"Get ready. I'm going to visit his school. He hasn't finished speaking some words. I want to talk to him!"
Lin Yi looked at Zhao Tai, and then asked: "What about the officials of the Ministry of Rites?"
Zhao Taidao: "No problem has been found. The children in the family are ordinary scholars and work in the Water Conservancy Department directly under the Ministry of Industry."
"kindness!"
Lin Yi nodded slightly.
An ordinary bachelor without a literary heart?
On duty at the Water Resources Department?
It sounded like there was nothing wrong with it, but... why did he stop Qin Chusheng's words?
Qin Chusheng seeks an opportunity for ordinary bachelors to serve the country. Why not?
"lets go!"
Lin Yi didn't waste any time and whistled to summon the holy beast.
The holy beast arched its head in front of Lin Yi and signaled Lin Yi to come up. He also raised his front hooves and touched Zhao Tai...
"What?"
Zhao Tai was stunned and looked at the holy beast in confusion.
"..."
Lin Yi was stunned. When he saw the holy beast like this, he just wanted Zhao Tai to add more legs to it like Yan Shuangwu...
