Chapter 291 (1)
Let’s first pull the picture back to the northern border with ice and snow, and there is still a bloody battlefield.
The war has slowly come to an end, but there is still a suspense that has not come to an end.
"Where is Duke Cao's camp?"
As an angel sent by the crown prince of the Eastern Palace, Xie Jin first met King Zhu Qi of Jin, and then secretly met Duke Ying Fu Youde. As for King Yan Zhu Di, he also left to meet him. Now, he is looking for Duke Cao Li Jinglong's camp.
After asking for directions, he took a few guards and entourages and began to shuttle through the endless military camp.
Everyone in the military camp was wearing iron armored weapons. His Confucian dress was aroused by many people.
When he walked to a camp, he was slightly depressed. As soon as Xie Jin entered, he saw an acquaintance.
"Hey, aren't you Li Laowai?" Xie Jin smiled and smiled at a veteran who was busy in the camp.
Li Laowai looked up in surprise, then rubbed his eyes and showed an intimate smile on his face, "Isn't this Jie Hanlin? Why are you here?"
He is the head of the Li family. Li Jinglong takes him wherever he goes. Therefore, he is quite familiar with his close ministers in the Eastern Palace. Especially Hanlin Xie Jin, this talented man is approachable on weekdays. Not only does he have no airs, he often talks dirty words to them, such as the big-headed soldiers.
"I'm here to pass the order and come and see it. Where is your head?" Xie Jin asked with his hand and smiled.
Mr. Li was happy again on his face, and came over and bowed to the end, and said solemnly, "Mr. Jie, you are here just in time. You are a talented and talented man. Everything in the world is in the heads of you scholars. You go and enlighten us!"
Xie Jin Daqi, "Is there anything I can't think about when you live in your house?"
"It's been several days, I haven't gotten in water and rice, and I don't sleep at night. I'm looking at how many times I've lost weight!" Li Laowai said anxiously.
In the words of later generations, Li Jinglong was a battlefield syndrome, which was caused by the anxiety and anxiety caused by his heart.
"Where is the person?" Seeing the hanging pot he said, Xie Jin also put away his smile and said, "Take me over!"
~~
"Where is inside!"
Outside the military tent, following the traces inside of Li Laowai, Xie Jin looked over quietly and saw a lonely silhouette.
Duke Cao Li Jinglong sat down weakly, staring at the charcoal fire in front of him with a blank look, without blinking for a long time.
The handsome face of Feng Shen was scaryly thin, with blue and purple in its paleness, and her messy beard was entangled in piles, listless as if the weeds were about to dry up in winter.
Li Jinglong sat there, as if his soul was gone.
This scene surprised Xie Jin. Even though he was well-educated, he could not find any words and poems to describe such scenes and pictures.
"The general faces the lamp at night, and people cannot sleep, thinking about their life.
People say that the bow is like a meteor, and the horse strolls in the camp.
But I don’t know that men’s tears are for the rest of their lives.”
"Who is here?" Li Jinglong said hoarsely, "I want to be alone and quiet!"
"It's me!" Xie Jin coughed and slowly went in.
Hearing Xie Jin's voice, Li Jinglong was stunned at first, then turned his head incredibly quickly, and waves of crystal clearness quickly appeared in his red eyes.
"Why are you here?"
"Official affairs, I will give you an order!" Xie Jin walked to Li Jinglong and smiled, "Come and see you!"
Li Jinglong opened his mouth and wanted to say something else, but his heart was suddenly blocked and could only whisper, "I'm sorry, thank you!"
Xie Jin sat down next to him and helped him make the fire of the carbon furnace stronger, "You are not as good as you are now!"
"Old usual?" Li Jinglong smiled bitterly, "I have forgotten what I used to be like!"
"On the Qinhuai River, singing and dancing, life is free and easy!"
"Laughing, scolding, respond calmly, advance and retreat with evidence, and be calm!" Xie Jin smiled and said, "You man, who can't defeat everything, how can you look lonely now?"
"Nothing can't be hampered?" Li Jinglong smiled bitterly again, "Today I know that in the capital, there are just small tricks and clever things." As he said, his eyes suddenly became bloodshot and looked at Xie Jin, "Xiao Jie, you are very knowledgeable, but have you seen the real battlefield? Have you ever seen the most tragic fight? Do you understand what is the real life and death?"
Speaking of this, the voice choked, "Do you understand that you can only watch others die but can do nothing? I watched with my own eyes, my people, my subordinates, froze to death. I watched with my own eyes, wailing to death!"
"I haven't seen it before, but I can think of it!" Xie Jin patted the other party on the shoulder, "When I was a teenager, I always felt inexplicably sad and angry. I heard the speech before the wife: Three men were guarding Yecheng, one man came with a letter, and two men died in battle."
"There are still soldiers and soldiers who have not yet been extinguished, and the children have all gone to the east!"
Xie Jin's face was filled with a hint of sadness, and he spoke with regret, "There are still pitiful bones by the Wuding River, who are still in the dream of spring boudoir! These poems from predecessors made me full of disgust for war, and I was not even very happy with warriors!"
"But when I passed the imperial examination and became a minister of the Ming Dynasty, I read these poems again and had different insights!"
"Why do we scholars study sages?" Speaking of this, Xie Jin smiled bitterly, "Some people say that studying is for Yan Ruyu and for the golden house. In fact, our generation study is for the sake of family, country and world, and peace for all ages. The sages have knowledge to make the rule of China, and the elderly have a place to rely on and support them."
"But the world is vulgar and does not act on people's hearts. It often blames the people, making the people as humble as ants!"
"But we must not be discouraged by this. We must also be self-reliant from generation to generation and educate the four directions to continue inheritance!"
"This is the responsibility of us scholars, and what about you warriors?"
"Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it has pursued the strategy of keeping enemies from outside the country, and has made several attempts to the north and south of the desert, launched a large army on the frontier, and created a merit in hundreds of battles!"
"After the merits, there are many bones, and the bright red blood of my Ming soldiers. Many of these people do not understand what family, country and the world are, and even more so what is the prosperity of the Han and Tang dynasties. They joined the army just to eat and military pay!"
"But you understand this principle!"
"As a warrior, defending his country, protecting the Ming Dynasty from the kings to the people. This is the responsibility of you and others. If you are afraid of life and death because you witness too much life and death, if you hesitate to move forward because of fear of death, if you are too miserable and want to retreat, then you are not worthy of being a warrior in the Ming Dynasty!"
"You are the hereditary Duke Cao, a member of the nobles of Huaixi of the Ming Dynasty, and a member of the generals of the Ming Dynasty. This is your life!"
"Li Jiujiang, whom I know, is unrestrained and domineering, and is often proud of his achievements and likes to flatter others!"
"Although I can't be considered an open-minded hero, I am definitely not a pseudo-man sitting here, complaining about himself, complaining about others, and being entangled like a sissy, crying and crying!"
