Even though they were only destined to meet for a few days, when Nangong Ye thought of that silent and indifferent boy, he still felt that the memory remained very clear.
He had heard from Shao Jingyu about the dangers of this battle due to coincidences. The Mongolian army had foresight in advance, which led to the Xia army being passive at the beginning. It was Yan Yiming who used a surprise move to cut off the Mongolian army's food supplies, which caused the Mongolian army's morale to be in chaos. He also heard from the imperial physician who treated Yan Yiming that the girl had wounds all over her body. The old wounds had already destroyed her skin and flesh, and the new wounds were so horrible that people could not bear to look at them.
The old imperial physician trimmed his beard and said in a very exaggerated tone, "Your Highness, you don't know, the girl already had a knife wound on her back, and now there is another one. Ouch, it's like she was split in half. It's so creepy."
If Yan Yiming was the boy in his memory, he could go and see him in person, but now that he knew that Yan Yiming was actually a girl, Nangong Ye naturally could not visit her.
The memorial written by Shao Jingyu to His Majesty naturally had to be reviewed by him before leaving his house. Nangong Ye only glanced at it lightly, but by chance he saw a few words.
"Captain Yan's treatment was ineffective and he died in battle."
Holding the memorial in his hand, Nangong Ye suddenly felt that it was ironic and ridiculous.
He had no feelings towards Yan Yiming, but he couldn't bear it because of his admiration for such an extraordinary woman. These few simple words wiped out everything Yan Yiming had done.
From now on, all the credit will belong to a name, a dead person, and for her, she will get nothing.
No, maybe there is, Nangong Ye said sarcastically, she was liked by Shao Jingyu. From then on, she was no longer a heroine standing tall in the world, but an ordinary woman who could only depend on Shao Jingyu.
And these seem to have no harm to Shao Jingyu.
So he asked directly, but doing so was too selfish.
Shao Jingyu didn't explain at all. Some words may be effective in fooling others, but Shao Jingyu had no way to defend himself to Nangong Ye who saw through everything at a glance.
He put down the book in his hand, and after a while he looked into Nangong Ye's eyes and asked him, "Your Majesty, are you going to stop me?"
"No." He had no position to stop it, "I just think it's a pity. I hope you won't regret it in the future."
Nangong Ye flicked his sleeves and turned to leave. His tone was much colder than usual when he left. "The imperial physician of the Prince of Yue's Palace cannot cure Miss Yan's illness. General Shao should plan to go to the capital as soon as possible."
He would not stop it, because a few months ago, Yan Yiming made a request to him as if she had predicted the future. She asked him not to interfere no matter what Shao Jingyu did in the future.
Whether Yan Yiming had guessed that this day would come, or was referring to something else, Nangong Ye didn't know and didn't want to know.
When they meet again next time, maybe it will no longer be the Yan Yiming he is familiar with, but the strange Miss Yan that Shao Jingyu hoped for.
What does it have to do with him? It's just the same name...
Yan Yiming and Xiao Pingguo saw everything clearly. When Yan Yiming saw the contents of Shao Jingyu's memorial, he sighed and said, "I haven't come up with a good solution yet, but Shao Jingyu is the one who got himself killed."
Jiang Yi had to pay a price he couldn't afford just because of a small mistake. Little Apple rubbed her hands excitedly, "Do you want to confront Shao Jingyu head-on?"
"Of course not," Yan Yiming smiled faintly, "Of course I will give her to Miss Yan, whom he wants the most, and then he will destroy this illusion himself. After all, I don't give him the right to decide my life for me."
Little Apple didn't dare to ask any more questions. She shuddered when she met Yan Yiming's murky eyes, and silently lit a candle for Shao Jingyu in her heart.
"But Xiaowu is really ruthless," Yan Yiming said dimly, "He obviously had a conflict with Shao Jingyu because of me, but he didn't even let me stay for a few more days for my sake. I was exhausted from the journey, and he wasn't afraid that something might happen to me along the way."
"What accidents can happen when I'm here?" Little Apple looked up.
"You really are stupid," Yan Yiming sighed, "Let's not play checkers today, let's play Gobang instead."
Little Apple cheered “Yeah!”
Because of his kind nature, he would question Shao Jingyu's reason, but he only has one person in his mind, so he would not do anything unnecessary. If he couldn't control him or couldn't stand him, he would just drive him away. Nangong Ye's likes and dislikes are very clear.
Shao Jingyu's memorial was finally delivered to the emperor, in which he described in detail the course of the battle.
He took the initiative to admit that he was not well prepared for this battle and fell into the trap of the Mongolian army, which led to the weaker Western Army encountering the main force of the Mongolian army. What's more, General Zuo disobeyed orders and acted on his own, so that he was discovered by the Mongolian army. It was only thanks to Captain Yan's efforts that the situation was turned around and his clever strategy of blocking the Mongolian army's reinforcements caught the Mongolian army off guard. Captain Yan attacked the Mongolian army while General Chen was responsible for guarding the camp. The two cooperated with each other and finally won the battle.
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned, as Captain Yan and General Chen both died in this battle.
After the emperor finished reading the memorial, the joy after the great victory had passed. Now when he read the memorial again, he actually felt a bit desolate.
General Chen fought in battles all his life and served his country with loyalty. Captain Yan was said to be younger than Shao Jingyu, but he had such ability and courage. Although he was born in a poor family, he was still very capable.
The emperor was old, and he couldn't help feeling sad when he thought about such a young pillar of society dying on the battlefield. He felt even more sorry for Yan Yiming when he learned that he had no parents.
General Chen's family was naturally very sympathetic, but as for this young man who had only heard of his name, his family was dead and he had no relatives, they didn't know who to give the reward to even if there was a reward of ten thousand gold. In the end, the emperor named him Marquis Yiyong and personally bestowed countless honors on him.
However, considering that his name clashes with the name of the deceased Crown Princess, the Emperor granted him the grace to personally give him the name.
Although the glory was immense, no one enjoyed it, which made things even more sad. Even the people of the Shao family sighed when they mentioned the Marquis Yiyong, whom they had never met.
I heard from Jingyu that it was this kid who saved his life in the first battle. Later, he led the troops to the battle in time and turned the situation around, saving Shao Jingyu's life again.
If it weren't for his good strategy, the outcome of this battle would have been unknown. It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to see it.
After three wars, the north was pacified and the emperor ordered Shao Jingyu to return to Beijing to report on his work. A year ago, no one was optimistic about Shao Jingyu's departure for the battlefield, but now he has returned and is a first-rank general admired by everyone. Compared with the empty title of first-rank grand tutor held by Mr. Shao, the head of the Shao family, the position that Shao Jingyu obtained with his military merits is even more exciting.
On the day Shao Jingyu returned to Beijing, the long streets of Jinling were crowded with people. Shao Jingyu was riding on a black horse. He had lost his previous childishness and looked mature and handsome. Behind him was a luxurious carriage and endless soldiers.
Everyone in the Shao family stood at the door impatiently waiting for Shao Jingyu to come back, but when he finally came back, before they could say a few words happily, Shao Jingyu hurriedly ordered people to go to the palace's Imperial Hospital to ask for the imperial physician, and then everyone watched Shao Jingyu carefully carry the person out of the carriage.
The whole family looked at each other in bewilderment, and finally called Yun Xiao who had been following Shao Jingyu, "Who is Jingyu holding?"
"Ah," Yun Xiao didn't know what to say for a moment. He was also surprised when he knew Yan Yiming was a woman, and then he quickly accepted this fact. However, now in everyone's eyes, Yiyong Hou is dead, so Yan Yiming's identity is now...
"The general said that was his daughter-in-law who had never been to the country."
The bright and smiling woman who was following Mrs. Shao suddenly looked stern and her expression changed.
