Dong Chunyu was talking here, and Xu Zhaojie, who was holding a book over there, also had a cold light flashing in his eyes. After a moment of silence, he put the "Spring and Autumn" in his hand on the case, and stretched out his hand to wave to Dong Chunyu. Dong Chunyu, who understood what he meant, immediately came to his side.

In Dong Chunyu's ear, the expressionless Xu Zhaojie began to explain in a low voice. Listening to his words, Dong Chunyu's face gradually became excited. After listening to Xu Zhaojie's words, Dong Chunyu had already realized the beauty of each. Chunyu immediately gave a thumbs up and praised:

"General, your move is really great!"

Regarding Dong Chunyu's praise, Xu Zhaojie seemed a little unimpressed and said lightly: "Do your job well, and if you make even the slightest mistake, I can't forgive you!"

"Don't worry, General. This matter will be taken care of by me. If there is anything wrong, I will come to see you!" Dong Chunyu vowed:

After Dong Chunyu left happily, Xu Zhaojie in the camp picked up the "Spring and Autumn" he had placed on the desk again and started reading.

However, although what he was looking at was "Spring and Autumn", at this moment Xu Zhaojie sighed slowly and in a low voice:

"When autumn comes on September 8th, I will kill all the flowers after they bloom."

"The incense formation soaring to the sky penetrates Chang'an, and the city is covered with golden armor."

"Although Huang Chao is a bit poor, this poem is really good..."

In the camp, Ye Mingsheng was lying on the bed with a tired look on his face. Next to him, Pei Zhixiu was holding a silver needle, accurately pricking the acupoints on Ye Mingsheng's legs.

From noon to now, Ye Mingsheng stood motionless in front of Xu Zhaojie's residence for more than three hours. The blood accumulation in his legs had long been numb. When he came back, if Ye Dong and others hadn't carefully supported him, , Ye Mingsheng is afraid that he will not come back even if he leaves.

As soon as Ye Mingsheng came back, he didn't look for her. Pei Zhixiu, who knew the situation, came to the door with a medicine box and started to dredge Ye Mingsheng's meridians with acupuncture.

It has to be said that Pei Zhixiu's medical skills are still very powerful. After a while of acupuncture, Ye Mingsheng can clearly feel that his legs, which were almost unconscious, have slowed down a lot...

"Thanks a lot!"

Looking at Pei Zhixiu who was panting in front of him, with beads of sweat covering his pretty face, Ye Mingsheng said with some distress:

Pei Zhixiu shook her head, glanced at the more than ten silver needles inserted in Ye Mingsheng's legs, and said in a low voice: "You knew it would be like this, so why did you bother?"

When Ye Mingsheng heard this, a wry smile appeared on his angular face. He wanted to explain to Pei Zhixiu, but he didn't know how to speak. After thinking for a long time, he could only say helplessly:

"People can't help themselves in the world. There are some things that even if you know the outcome, you still have to do..."

Pei Zhixiu seemed unable to understand Ye Mingsheng's thoughts and continued to say softly: "If you can't control your mind, how can you control your body?"

As soon as these words came out, the bitterness on Ye Mingsheng's face became even stronger, but he was completely speechless.

After acupuncture with a stick of incense, Pei Zhixiu took off the silver needle from Ye Mingsheng's leg, applied some ointment to Ye Mingsheng, and told Ye Mingsheng a few words to rest and not exercise before memorizing it. He left with the medicine box and went back to rest.

After Pei Zhixiu left, Ye Tie walked into the camp not long after. He took out a small bundle from his arms, handed it to Ye Mingsheng with both hands, and whispered:

"Those people, Lin Huaiwu, have been let out quietly. A total of three thousand taels of silver have been collected. According to your instructions, Master, five hundred taels were given to Lin Huaiwu. This is the bank note for the remaining two thousand five hundred taels."

Ye Mingsheng's eyes flashed with light when he heard this, he pondered for a moment and then asked:

"Lin Huaiwu, what's your reaction?"

"He has been insinuating how much money he received this time. According to your instructions, young master, I have been pretending to be stupid and did not tell him the real amount!"

"When I gave him the five hundred taels of silver, he pretended not to want it, saying how you cultivated him, young master, how could he accept your silver, etc., but when he looked at the banknote, his eyes almost turned green and he refused. After a few times, he stopped pretending and took the banknote!" Ye Tie reported in a low voice:

Ye Mingsheng nodded. He was not surprised by Lin Huaiwu's reaction. Although Ye Mingsheng was not from a wealthy family, he was a big landowner in the Ye family. His family was well off and he owned 300 acres of fertile land in his hometown of Fengshan County. There is no need to worry about maids, servants, food and drink. Not only does he not need to use military pay to supplement the family income on weekdays, but his hometown can also send him some money.

But his subordinate Lin Huaiwu is different. His family is in a very difficult situation. Both his parents are present at home. He has four brothers and sisters. Lin Huaiwu is the second oldest. The whole family is an out-and-out farmer, with their backs to the loess and their faces to the ground. God, dig food from the earth to eat...

Except for Lin Huaiwu, the whole family stayed in a small county town in Yongliang, his hometown. When the year was good, it was okay, but when the year was bad, Lin Huaiwu had to send money back.

In fact, Lin Huaiwu was not called Lin Huaiwu originally. His parents, who had only attended a private school for a few days, had no idea how to write the word Huaiwu or what it meant.

Lin Huaiwu's birth name is Lin Erbiao, and his brother is called Lin Dabiao. The name Huaiwu was given to him by the coach who trained him when he was in Zhaowu Camp.

It is precisely because the family's conditions are so tight and there is no money for his own activities that even though Lin Huaiwu was born in Zhaowu Camp and was a personal guard of Lord Shangguan Hongyuan, he was only a captain in the Forbidden Army for several years. If it were not for Ye Mingsheng's promotion Give him a chance and let him be the whistle commander. He is probably still a team leader even now!

It may be because of this background that Lin Huaiwu, although he never said it, took money seriously. To put it bluntly, he was a little greedy for money, and he also did some dirty tricks in the military camp.

Ye Mingsheng saw all this, but he thought that when the water was clear, there would be no fish. In addition, Lin Huaiwu was quite measured in his actions and never gave him any big troubles. Therefore, Ye Mingsheng was overwhelmed by what he did. Just open one eye, close one eye, and don't go into details, and Lin Huaiwu will always be in peace.

Lin Huaiwu also reciprocated Ye Mingsheng's care. He always followed Ye Mingsheng's lead and listened very well. Ye Mingsheng went east, but he never went west.
