Because of that kiss, the two ended up running to the training field.
After the morning training was completed, Xu Jingjing personally led a group to move Xie Chang'an's belongings from Ye Jingchen's room to a small room that was a bit far from Ye Jingchen's room but very close to their barracks.
The couple planned to keep an eye on Xie Chang'an themselves.
Xie Chang'an's face was extremely ugly.
But Xu Jingjing personally led the people to move the things, and Ye Jingchen didn't say a word from beginning to end, so what could Xie Chang'an say?
He now suspects that the favors Ye Jingchen gave him before were compensation for this incident!
After moving everything, Xie Chang'an stormed off, and Ye Jingchen felt too embarrassed to stop him in front of Xu Jingjing.
It's not his fault. It was Xie Chang'an's parents who wanted them to separate. He has no official status with Xie Chang'an now, so what can he say?
After Xie Chang'an's belongings were moved out, his room looked much emptier and quieter.
Having lived together for over two years, Ye Jingchen found it hard to adjust to the sudden separation.
After lunch, Ye Jingchen took a nap undisturbed until Chenxi woke him up just before the afternoon training was about to begin.
During training, Ye Jingchen greeted Xie Chang'an, but Xie Chang'an ignored him with a cold face.
"Are you ignoring me because you're planning to break up with me?" After training, Ye Jingchen caught up with Xie Chang'an and asked him in a low voice.
"No!"
"impossible!"
"Don't even think about it!"
Xie Chang'an denied it three times.
"Then why are you ignoring me? It's not like I asked you to move out!" Ye Jingchen said, somewhat amused.
"You're still laughing! Are you happy that I moved out?" Xie Chang'an glared at Ye Jingchen and asked angrily.
"I didn't!" Ye Jingchen quickly denied.
This is simply the inevitable consequence they will face after confessing.
Xie Shaoling and Xu Jingjing not only separated them from each other, but also kept a close eye on Xie Chang'an at all times.
For example, they had only been chatting for a short while when Xu Jingjing came over.
They ate dinner together, and after dinner, Xie Chang'an was asked to stay behind by Xu Jingjing.
After practicing shooting that evening, Xie Chang'an was kept behind by Xie Shaoling again.
In this military camp, if Xie Shaoling and Xu Jingjing wanted to keep an eye on Xie Chang'an, he really had no way to do it.
That night, Ye Jingchen waited for a while, but Xie Chang'an didn't come, so he went to sleep.
The next morning, when he saw Xie Chang'an at the drill ground, he was listless, and his peach blossom eyes were particularly melancholy.
Xie Shaoling's complexion was also not good, with faint shadows around his eyes.
Xie Chang'an is not a good child who will listen to reason. He must have tried to find me last night, but failed to break through. Now it seems that it was Xie Shaoling who intercepted him.
"You liar! You clearly said yesterday that you would make it up to me tonight!" Xie Chang'an said as soon as he saw Ye Jingchen, ignoring Xie Shaoling and Xu Jingjing who were right next to him.
He can't go to Ye Jingchen, but can't Ye Jingchen go to him?
After being caught red-handed by his father several times while trying to sneak away, Xie Chang'an gave up.
Lying in bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep, he thought that although he couldn't secretly go to see Ye Jingchen, Ye Jingchen could come to see him openly. But he waited all night and Ye Jingchen didn't come.
Ye Jingchen: ......
Ye Jingchen was so embarrassed he wanted to dig a hole and bury himself.
Parents' hearts are always full of love and worry!
Ye Jingchen didn't dare to look at how ugly Xie Shaoling and Xu Jingjing's expressions would be.
However, he overheard Xie Shaoling saying that he wanted to test Xie Chang'an's spear skills.
Whether it's a friendly exchange or a teaching test, these are just euphemisms.
To put it bluntly, he wants to beat the child again!
Xie Chang'an's old wounds hadn't healed before he was injured again.
Running with weights looks so miserable.
"Uncle Xie, could you help Chang'an apply some medicine?" After breakfast, Ye Jingchen took out the ointment he carried with him and handed it to Xie Shaoling.
Doesn't Xie Shaoling have any ointment on him?
Of course he does.
Even if he doesn't have it, Xu Jingjing will.
The reason Ye Jingchen took out his ointment in front of Xie Chang'an and asked Xie Shaoling to help apply it was to appease Xie Chang'an.
Xie Shaoling took the ointment with an unnatural expression.
Ye Jingchen left first, and Xie Chang'an watched his retreating figure with a resentful look.
“I’d only ever heard of daughters growing up and leaving home, but I never imagined sons could do the same! Now that I think about it, I wish I’d given birth to a girl eighteen years ago!” Xu Jingjing sighed.
"You good-for-nothing!" Xie Shaoling slapped Xie Chang'an on the back, hitting his wound, which made Xie Chang'an jump up in pain.
"Control your eyes!" Xie Shaoling reached out to hit him again, but Xie Chang'an dodged in time this time.
"If you can control your feelings for someone, then it's not really liking them!" Xie Chang'an retorted.
"We have to control it even if we can't! Don't blame us for breaking you up, it's all for your own good!" Xu Jingjing couldn't help but slap Xie Chang'an on the back of the head.
After a period of what was worse than death for Xie Chang'an, the emperor's decree arrived.
This imperial edict has three key points. The first, of course, is to reward the three armies.
In this battle, Dayuan completely drove out the Northern Barbarians, resolved the external threat that had plagued Dayuan for decades, and won at least ten years of peace and stability for the northern frontier. It was a great achievement worthy of being recorded in history, and the emperor naturally had to reward him handsomely.
The second point concerns Ye Jingchen's appointment letter.
According to the emperor's previous intention, he wanted Ye Jingchen to become the commander of the Divine Might Army and completely control it.
However, Ye Jingchen's performance in the Divine Might Army over the past two years has been remarkable, and he is a great contributor to the expulsion of the Northern Barbarians. With both the morale of the army and military achievements, the position of commander of the Divine Might Army seems less important.
Another reason is that, inspired by Ye Jingchen's various exercises, the border defense battalion's combat effectiveness has improved particularly rapidly in the past two years, and it even achieved a minor victory over the Shenwei Army in a quarterly exercise.
In this way, the threat level of the Divine Might Army in the emperor's mind was greatly reduced.
Therefore, the emperor's decree this time only appointed Ye Jingchen as Xie Shaoling's deputy general, while Xie Chang'an, who also performed outstandingly, was appointed as the deputy commander of the Eastern Palace Guard.
The emperor's meaning was clear: he did not want the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion to have any further connection with the Divine Might Army.
The third point is to summon Ye Jingchen back to the capital.
With the matter settled in the northern frontier, Ye Jingchen could return home in triumph.
Ye Jingchen and Xie Chang'an were both waiting for this imperial edict.
Since driving out the northern barbarians, Ye Jingchen has been eager to return home.
Missing his old friends in the capital was one reason, but there was an even more important reason: after returning this time, he could finally begin implementing his plan to live a life of leisure and relaxation.
Xie Chang'an wanted to go back for the sake of his happiness in the second half of his life.
Now, under his parents' watchful eyes, he can see them every day but can't touch or eat them, which makes him feel incredibly frustrated.
Now that he has become the deputy commander of the Eastern Palace Guard, he can openly appear beside Ye Jingchen once he returns to the capital.
For the first time since his rebirth, he felt grateful to Ye Shengping.
