Border town, atop the city wall.
Ajitai led his troops into the Great Jin Dynasty many times, attacking all three city gates, but failed to regain face in any of them, and all ended in a dismal defeat.
On that day, as Ajitai was returning to his camp with his guards, he heard heart-wrenching cries.
He was already irritable, and hearing that sound instantly ignited his rage.
The lively camp was filled with cries and laughter.
Ajitai rushed into the tent, and the playful noises stopped abruptly, leaving only cries.
"The Third Prince."
The soldiers in the tent immediately bowed respectfully to Ajitai.
Having suffered a defeat, Ajitai was even more furious upon seeing the scene before him.
He shouted, "What time is it? You're just thinking about your own pleasure!"
"Everyone go and collect fifteen strokes of the military rod!"
The soldiers' smiles instantly vanished, and they immediately knelt on the ground, not daring to make a sound.
The crying and shouting stopped, and the tent suddenly fell silent.
Ajitai glanced down at Li Minjun, who was curled up on the blanket, and whispered the order, "Kill her."
"Tomorrow we'll use her to dampen the arrogance of those two-legged sheep from the Great Jin."
Having said that, Ajitai forcefully lifted the tent flap and stepped out of the camp.
......
Border town, Dongying.
Since the Tatars attacked the Great Jin again, Feng Yu'er led her soldiers and maids to the military camp to bandage and treat the wounded soldiers.
Previously, Feng Yuer had followed Lu Qiqi to bandage the wounds of the injured soldiers. She was not good at treating or administering medicine, but she was more skilled at suturing than Ren Yuan.
At that moment, she had just finished stitching up the wound on her right shoulder.
On Monday, as he entered the wounded soldiers' camp, his eyes swept around the tents and he quickly spotted Feng Yu'er.
Feng Yu'er had been busy all day at the wounded soldiers' camp, and her body was covered in blood.
A pang of heartache flashed in Zhou Yi's eyes, but she was also happy that she didn't care about the bloodstains on her body and was focused on bandaging the wounded soldiers.
Feng Yu'er once told him that she wanted to be like Lu Qiqi and make a contribution to the soldiers of the Great Jin Dynasty.
In this way, it wouldn't be considered a disgrace to her father, General Feng's, reputation, or the Feng family's traditions.
"Your wound is too deep, don't move around too much, lest you worsen the injury. Just rest well."
Feng Yu'er gave a brief explanation, then picked up the medicine box, intending to bandage the next wounded soldier.
She was about to sling the medicine box over her shoulder when she saw Monday's face.
The two locked eyes for a moment, then Feng Yu'er's upturned lips slowly straightened, and she quickly walked towards Zhou Yi.
She walked up to Zhou Yi and noticed that he had injured his right shoulder, and the bandages were soaked in blood.
She looked up at him and said, "Sit down quickly, I'll give you some medicine and re-bandage your wound."
On Monday, they found a relatively open space, sat down on the ground, and Feng Yu'er began to untie the bandages on his body.
When she saw that the wound on Monday's shoulder wasn't too deep, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She meticulously wiped away the blood and grime from his wounds, then moistened a cotton ball with alcohol and disinfected it.
Finally, I took out a porcelain bottle from the medicine box, poured some medicine powder onto the wound, and then performed the final step of bandaging.
The Tatar attack on the Great Jin was too sudden, and the Great Jin had just ceased hostilities, making medicine for wounds extremely scarce.
Feng Yu'er took out her limited supply of wound medicine and sprinkled it on Zhou Yi's not-so-serious wound, which was really a waste of her resources.
The two understood each other implicitly, but neither dared to confess their feelings.
After the wound was bandaged, Zhou Yi whispered, "Thank you."
Feng Yu'er met his eyes, handed him the porcelain bottle, and said, "Be careful and take care of yourself."
After saying that, she picked up the first-aid kit and bandaged up other wounded soldiers.
On Monday, he stared at her busy figure for a long time before clutching his shoulder injury and walking out of the wounded soldiers' camp.
At this moment, the stars outside the camp are scattered like the flames of yesterday's battle.
......
The palace, the main hall.
"Hahaha."
"Great! That's wonderful!"
When the emperor heard the news of the victory from the border town, he laughed heartily.
Civil and military officials also stepped forward to offer their congratulations.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations!"
"Now that the Tatar king is dead, the Tatar tribes have been divided into small tribes and have lost their power. They are no longer a threat."
The emperor had never felt so triumphant in all the years since he ascended the throne.
He looked at the memorials reporting achievements and saw an unfamiliar name among them.
"on Monday?"
Who is this?
Upon hearing this name, Song Yanqing stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this person was escorting Princess Kangle County to the border to treat wounded soldiers, and then stayed in the border to join the army."
The emperor's eyes flickered slightly after hearing Song Yanqing's words.
There is no other reason.
According to the memorial, a man named Zhou Yi not only seriously injured Ajitai, but also shot and killed the Tatar king with an arrow through his heart.
Such a feat deserves to be recorded in history.
However, this person was related to Princess Kangle County, and the emperor immediately pursed his lips, even suspecting that this person might have falsely claimed military merits, and that everything was paving the way for Song Yanqing.
However, he quickly realized that Qin Shiyu had always been upright and incorruptible, and had no father, mother, husband, or children. He had never heard of her having a close relationship with Song Yanqing.
It must all be just a coincidence.
Thinking of this, the emperor finally spoke, “Zhou Yi was brave and invincible, and shot and killed the Tatar king.”
He is hereby appointed General of the Western Camp, awarded two hundred taels of gold, and his salary shall be provided in accordance with regulations.
News of the Tatar defeat that day spread throughout the new capital.
Lu Yao had just bought some pastries from outside, and upon hearing the news, she immediately went to share them with Song Binyu.
In the past two days, Song Binyu has been able to walk without holding onto anything, but he can't walk for too long.
But for him, this is already a great improvement.
In Lu Qiqi's words, it means they're not far from being able to run away.
Lu Yao handed him a pastry and told Song Binyu the news she had heard outside the mansion, but she did not hear him cheer with joy.
Seeing his indifferent expression, she was quite curious. "What's wrong? Why aren't you happy about something so good?"
Song Binyu casually brushed off the pastry crumbs that Lu Yao had left on his clothes.
"If we want the Great Jin Dynasty to no longer be invaded by other countries, we must strengthen our national power."
Only when a nation is strong, its people prosperous, and its military powerful will other countries dare not invade again.
Lu Yao only half understood what Song Binyu said, but for some reason, she felt that it made a lot of sense.
That's how it is.
Upon hearing the news reported by Shijiu, Lu Qiqi's first thought was to be happy for Zhou Yi.
Her smile was full of anticipation. "If Grandma Zhou knew about this, she would definitely be proud of her eldest grandson."
The Zhou family had been farmers for generations, and they had never produced a scholar.
Now that Zhou Yi has become a general, if Yi'an Village still existed, the family genealogy would probably have to be compiled in his name.
On Monday, far away in the border town, he had no idea that everyone missed him so much.
He sneezed several times that day, and when Feng Yu'er saw it, she asked Ren Yuan for some medicine for a cold. He drank a large bowl of it before he was able to escape.
But the jujube stuffed into his mouth was really sweet!
