Chapter 10 Little Medicine Man
Yu Chenyin's health gradually improved, and occasionally he and Ji Yan could ride horses and gallop across the grassland.The endless sky, the flying eagle, everything is so free except for the lack of rain and drought.
He was trapped in the ward in his previous life, and to pass the time, he had read many books, many of which recorded heroic deeds from ancient times to the present.When he couldn't step out of the ward, the heroes in the book became a sustenance in his heart. They were either brave and good at fighting, or they were resourceful and strategized, or they took righteousness into benevolence and died as home... Now, by his side A true hero emerged.The people in northern Xinjiang loved and respected him as if they were gods, and the staff of the general's mansion were also sincerely convinced and loyal to him.
Being too weak to practice martial arts, Yu Chenyin focused on the art of war.Seeing that Yu Chenyin wanted to learn, Ji Yan did not hesitate to teach him.Even though the staff let go of most of their prejudices, they still opposed it out of standpoint, and persuaded the general not to give wisdom to people who look like a country, so as not to arouse their ambitions.Put it in the backyard, just fine clothes and fine food, teaching them the art of war is asking for trouble.A medicine man who knows more will not be content in the backyard.
Ji Yan shook his head and laughed: "Are you afraid? Because of the illusory possibility, you have to cut off the ambition of others. Yan thinks that you have a plan and are capable of strategizing, so you shouldn't be afraid of a medicine man. Besides. The son of Beijiang studied and practiced martial arts, with great ambitions, and the medicine man entered our northern border. He is also my son of Beijiang. Why not read military books in his spare time? Besides, you all admire Confucianism and Taoism, don’t you know the merits of enlightenment? If you really If you are too busy to just stare at a medicine man, why not be his master and teach him well. It would be a good talk to completely naturalize him who is not of my race."
Rumors of this matter spread, and there are really benevolent people who are ready to try it.One day, a qin master asked to see the general, saying that although he was not talented in civil and martial arts, he had a slight reputation in the field of qin, and he was willing to teach medicine for the general.Ji Yan laughed loudly, but he didn't expect someone to come to his door, and said: "Sir, stay overnight for a few days, and when I tell the medicine man, it's not too late, sir to teach him."
Ji Yan asked his subordinates to investigate the identity of the qin master, and after confirming that he was a well-known qin master, and his innocence had nothing to do with the capital, he introduced him to Yu Chenyin with confidence.Ji Yan became more and more busy, Yu Chenyin didn't want to take up too much of his time, and didn't want to disturb other people, so he agreed.
In order to avoid complications, Yu Chenyin put on the mask again.He didn't have much interest in playing the piano at first, but the sound of the violinist's piano is soothing, pure and pleasant.The qin master is a strange person. He plays pure joy and peace in his place, but when he returns to his own room, it is often a bitter song.Hearing the very sad sound of the qin coming from the guest room where the qin master lives from time to time, it made everyone who heard it burst into tears.
He asked the luthier about it.The luthier turned around and didn't speak bluntly.
One day, the luthier said with a smile: "You have already acquired [-]% of my power, and the remaining [-]% is experience and state of mind. I can't teach you anything. I will bid farewell to the general in a few days."
Yu Chenyin persuaded him to stay: "Mr. exaggerates the truth. Mr. Qin's skill is beyond my reach. Does Mr. have any problems at home? If not, can you stay for a while longer?"
The luthier said with a smile: "There is indeed something important at home, so I have to hurry back. I don't know if Chenyin drinks alcohol, but I hope to have a drink with you before I leave."
Yu Chenyin asked his servants to serve wine, and the two drank a pot facing the setting sun.However, Yu Chenyin felt uneasy in his heart. Although the luthier tried his best to smile brightly, it was dark and bitter, as if he had something to hide, but he couldn't tell others.
"Sir, if you have any difficulties, feel free to confide in me. The general has always been kind, so maybe he can't help you."
The luthier just laughed and said: "Chen Yin is worried, but he is about to leave, and he is a little bit reluctant."
Yu Chenyin stopped asking questions, poured wine for the luthier, and continued to drink with him.
At dusk and evening, the light was dim, and the servants lit the lamps, and the luthier held the piano to say goodbye.
Yu Chen stared at the luthier's back, getting farther and farther away, more and more illusory, and finally walked into the dark night, never to be seen again.
The next day, the general was assassinated.
The assassin is the luthier who claims to be incompetent in both civil and military affairs.
Before the staff could be furious, they received two urgent military letters.The Huns in the north invaded them fiercely, and the new emperor sent troops to Chen Bing under the heavy city in the south.
Northern Xinjiang is in danger.
Ji Yan didn't care about recuperating, so he went into battle, first repelled the Huns, and then sought peace with the new emperor, saying that the Ji family was loyal and had no intention of rebellion.The new emperor wanted Ji Yan's head to be presented in Beijiang, saying that once Ji Yan died, he would not hurt the people in Beijiang at all, and he would also spare other Ji clan members and officers and staff.The former military commander appointed by the new emperor directly cursed: When the Ji family founded the country, they asked themselves to guard the northern border, but who knew that they were ambitious. After several generations, they refused to obey the orders of the court, and they clearly intended to become kings on their own.If Ji Yan is really loyal, he should kill himself to serve the country.
The people in the general's mansion shouldn't.The new emperor also intended to ridicule, and did not expect Ji Yan to really commit suicide.War is imminent.
However, Ji Yan was assassinated first and suffered serious injuries. Later, he fought fiercely with the Huns and was even more seriously injured.The new emperor has always kept his soldiers from fighting, not necessarily because he wants to take advantage of the fisherman.At this time, there was a force of survivors from the former dynasty in northern Xinjiang.
The leader asked to see the general Ji Yan, persuaded him to take advantage of this to rebel against the state of Zhao, and called His Royal Highness Ji Yan.
It turned out that the royal family of the previous dynasty had not been exterminated. The daughter of the Ji family married the fifth prince of the previous dynasty.Ji Yanshi is a descendant of the five princes.Even though the Zhao clan has ruled the world for decades, there are still many people who never forget the former dynasty.
This group of survivors of the former dynasty also organized an assassination in the Summer Palace, which seriously injured the then emperor.
Ji Yan thought for a long time, but he finally decided to go to war because he did not believe that the new emperor would spare the members of the Ji clan and the staff of the soldiers.
However, the retreating Huns attacked again, and the new emperor also began to attack the city.Ji Yan was seriously injured and unable to retreat from the enemy himself, so he had to send troops and generals to march in two ways.
The situation became more and more critical as the battle continued for a long time.There was a severe drought in northern Xinjiang, and food shortages began everywhere.
Ji Yan had to go into battle again with injuries, and after beating the Xiongnu hard, they signed a peace treaty.Compared with the new emperor of Zhaoguo, if the Xiongnu broke into northern Xinjiang, it would cause heavy casualties to the people here.At this time, Ji Yan, who defeated the Xiongnu, looked at the tired soldiers and the shortage of rations, and realized that the right time, place and people were not on his side, and the general situation was gone!
The new emperor sent news: His order at that time is still valid, as long as Ji Yan sacrifices his head, he will not hurt the people in northern Xinjiang at all, and he will spare the Ji clan and the staff of the soldiers.The new emperor originally wanted to say that if Ji Yan refused to follow, if he destroyed the northern border, destroyed a city and slaughtered a city, and captured the members of the Ji clan, he would be killed by a thousand swords.But the minister persuaded him: "Your Majesty, the mourning army will win! If this statement makes all the people in the northern border united, and the boat sinks, I'm afraid this battle will be in danger!"
At this time, Ji Yan was seriously ill for a long time and went into battle with injuries twice after being assassinated. Even if he is a fierce general in the world, his body and body are still mortal.Kuang Beijiang's food storage is not optimistic, even if he wants to fight, it will be difficult to win.If the war drags on for a long time, it will only be more difficult for the people to survive.He does not want to see the phenomenon of cannibalism returning to northern Xinjiang decades ago.
Ji Yan agreed to the new emperor and only asked for some time to allow him to finish the family affairs.
All the officers, soldiers and staff begged for a decisive battle with the new emperor, but the people in northern Xinjiang were divided into two factions.One group cried bitterly and scolded the new emperor for insisting on following Ji Yan, while the other group remained silent and secretly expected Ji Yan to commit suicide to end the disaster as soon as possible.As the food shortage became more and more serious, the former began to fall to the latter, and even some people in the general's mansion began to waver.
Yu Chenyin asked Ji Yan: "Is it worth it?"
Ji Yan replied: "I treat the people as I treat you. It is wishful thinking and willing."
When Yu Chenyin heard the words, he couldn't bear it anymore, and wept bitterly.He wanted to hug the general, but he was afraid of touching his wound, so he didn't know what to do, he could only hold the general's hand and feel his still warm body temperature.
He didn't want the general to turn into a cold corpse.From then on, no one would teach him the art of war by hand, or lead him to gallop across the grasslands before the sunset on a big horse-drawn bow, even the wind was so reckless.
He had so many things he wanted to say, but he only yelled out: "General..."
Weeping for a long time, he seemed to be grasping at straws: "Blood, general, my blood, why don't you drink my blood. Then you will get better immediately, and you will be able to go into battle tomorrow and smash the enemy army! You You will lead the army and civilians in northern Xinjiang to defeat the new emperor, you will fight to the capital, and you will live for a long time...General..."
Ji Yan smiled and shook his head: "It's better to die sober than to die in madness. Chen Yin, don't be afraid, Yan has lived more freely than most people in the world in the past twenty years, and Yan is already very satisfied. After I die, the soldiers will send you to a safe place, Dust Yin, where you can start a new life. Forget about me and Northern Xinjiang. Just pretend that you have never lived here."
Ji Yan went to Chongcheng, but Yu Chenyin did not follow.He heard that Ji Yan committed suicide under the heavy city in front of the new emperor, and then it rained heavily for seven days, and the severe drought in northern Xinjiang was relieved.
Some people in northern Xinjiang said that God was grateful for the benevolence and righteousness of the general, and some people said that it was because the disaster star had been removed, so it was raining.
Yu Chen disappeared.Ji Yan's soldiers were not found, nor were the new emperor's men.
He disappeared among the crowds, exiled himself, and because he had no food or drink, he wandered about, whether there were wild animals or not, and whether there was no way out.
The new emperor's notices were posted all over the country, and the rewards piled up more and more, but no one saw him after that, not even a trace.
The new emperor regretted it.He sent the little Yaoren to Beijiang, firstly, to temporarily separate him to calm himself down, and secondly, to make Ji Yan become as crazy as his father after contacting Yaoren. .
But Ji Yan hadn't been crazy for a long time, so he couldn't sit still.Negotiate with the Xiongnu and let them raid the northern border. At the same time, Chen Bing went north, the army suppressed the border, and vowed to destroy Ji Yan.
Ji Yan killed himself, and he succeeded.
The whereabouts of the little medicine man are unknown.
At this time, the new emperor didn't know that Ji Yan's remnants and the survivors of the previous dynasty were coming to the capital, and vowed to avenge him and kill him in memory of the general.
