Chapter 38: Climbing the Wall
But no matter how helpless he was, his general had already turned over, so he couldn't just stand there.
So he turned over as well.
The room was quiet, and it was obvious that everyone who should sleep was asleep.
Luo Yuan saw that his general slowed down his pace, so he naturally followed suit.
After a while, he arrived at the door of the main house.
Luo Yuan thought of what happened last night and frowned slightly.
But there were some things he couldn't say casually.
So he straightened his mind and stood in the yard with his back to the door of the main house.
He concentrated on being his "doorkeeper".
When Shang Ji pushed the door, he obviously encountered resistance.
She really spared no effort to lock these doors.
If it were in the past, he wouldn't care and would just break in.
There was no place in the world that could stop him.
But now, he looked around and saw that the windows were also closed, so there was really nothing he could do for a while.
He had to knock on the door gently.
The one on duty today was Cherry.
She was a light sleeper, so she heard any noise outside.
She woke up immediately and asked.
"Who?"
"It's me."
Shang Ji's voice was deep and magnetic, with some unquestionable deterrence.
So Cherry reacted immediately and immediately went forward to pull the bolt.
After opening the door gently, she was puzzled.
"Why is the general back?"
Then she looked up at the sky, it was almost midnight.
Shang Ji did not answer her, but walked in sideways.
Passing through the hall and around the Su embroidered screen, he soon saw Du Jingyi sleeping soundly.
The moonlight sprinkled softly on the tent, and she happened to be sideways facing the outside, so her face was particularly soft.
Shang Ji didn't know why, after seeing this, the whole person relaxed from the tense state.
Seeing this, Cherry didn't dare to go forward, and walked out of the door lightly.
I was still thinking about whether to bring some hot water for the general to wash up, when I saw Luo Yuan standing in the yard under the moonlight.
His face was as firm and cold as ever. Cherry snorted, turned around and left the corridor to the side room.
Luo Yuan was also confused. Not only did he climb over the wall in the middle of the night, but he was also given a bad face by a girl.
I don’t know who gave her the courage and confidence to despise me so much.
Speaking of which, he and this stinky girl don’t have much intersection.
Why are they always at odds?
Could it be that I look a bit like the man who is so unkind to her?
Thinking of this, I couldn’t help but hum and laugh in a low voice.
As a result, this smile didn’t last long.
There was movement at the door again.
Shang Ji walked out calmly, no different from when he came.
Hearing some movement, Cherry also came out of the side room.
She said to Shang Ji.
"General, the hot water is ready. I will help you wash up."
She thought that Shang Ji would rest after coming back from the night, so she prepared everything.
Unfortunately, Shang Ji also looked aside and said.
"No need, I just came back to see you. Use this medicine on the lady's wound, and it will heal faster."
After that, he handed over a porcelain bottle from his arms.
Yingtao was hesitant, but still took it and answered respectfully.
"Well, I know."
After saying this, Shang Ji took Luo Yuan and climbed out again along the way they came.
Seeing that the wall of more than ten feet was climbed over, Yingtao suddenly felt that the wall seemed to be unable to stop anything.
So she sighed and looked at the porcelain bottle in her hand, a little dazed.
Came in a hurry and left quickly.
The servant at the gate had just fallen asleep and was woken up again.
This time, before he even had time to say anything, Shang Ji and Luo Yuan jumped on their horses and galloped away with their guards.
He was so fast that he couldn't help rubbing his eyes and patting his face.
He said something in a dream.
"Am I wandering at night?"
Unfortunately, the only answer he got was the endless night and the occasional sound of wind and grass in the silence.
After rushing all the way, Shang Ji and his party returned to the camp when they were about to reach Chouzheng.
The soldiers who were on guard were still the same group of soldiers.
When they saw their generals returning with their men, they couldn't help but sigh.
"The general is really fast. I wonder if the matter has been done?"
"Aren't you talking nonsense? When has our general ever been unable to do anything?"
"That's right."
"Okay, keep guarding. Another hour will be dawn."
"Yeah."
After a conversation, the camp fell into silence again.
After returning to the big tent, Shang Ji relaxed a lot.
He fell down and slept on the wooden bed with a thin blanket.
He didn't feel anything before, but today, he felt it was a little rough.
He closed his eyes, and his mind was full of the soft satin quilt in Xitang Courtyard.
Then, he fell into a deep sleep.
He slept until the sky was a little light.
The horn sounded early in the camp.
The soldiers woke up from their sleep one by one, and immediately dressed and washed without any delay.
After a while, they all gathered in the martial arts training ground to prepare for military training.
Shang Ji's face was stern, and his eyes were full of determination and fortitude.
He pursed his lips slightly and stood on the stage looking at the soldiers below.
Everyone was full of energy and full of blood.
They had just returned from Cezhou, but they had been on the march for two or three months and it was considered a rest.
So, after a quick glance, Shang Ji used his inner strength to push his voice and said loudly.
"From today on, the training of the Hu Ben Army will continue as usual, and there must be no slackness. Do you understand?"
"Yes, General!"
The upper and lower levels were in unison, and the voices were loud and high.
Hearing such a voice, even Luo Yuan next to him was also excited.
Then, the entire martial arts field was filled with various training figures.
Agile, sensitive, and extremely strong.
Whether it was long-range shooting or close-range bare-chested battle, there was no fear.
Shang Ji looked at the actions of the soldiers below, and pride appeared in his eyes from time to time.
Such soldiers are the solid foundation of the Daxing Dynasty.
And he was also happy to have such brothers who could fight together.
The memories of training and fighting in the Gu family military camp flashed by.
Grandfather, uncle, second uncle, third uncle, and several cousins.
Such voices and smiles still echoed in Shang Ji's mind.
In an instant, the corners of his mouth that had just risen were pressed down again.
The whole body was filled with the gradually cool autumn feeling.
Outside the suburbs, the mighty voice of the Tiger Guards resounded through the sky.
And in Sui'an City, people gradually came out to set up stalls and do business.
At dawn, there was movement in the courtyards of the Duke's Mansion.
Some got up late, and naturally some got up early.
