88 Chapter 39: Plum Blossoms in the Great Buddha Temple (3)

"Who's under the tent?" Ji Rin said loudly.

"Zhang Lang, the last general of the forbidden military academy, greeted the general. Lang Jun, who was wearing an ultramarine cloak and a hood on his head, took off the hood with one hand and immediately knelt down on one knee, but there was irrepressible anger and shame in his tone.

"Captain Zhang, please. Ji Rin said.

"Zhang Lang is guilty, please punish the general!" Zhang Lang hung his head and didn't dare to get up.

"What is Captain Zhang's crime?" Ji Rin looked puzzled.

"......" Zhang Lang's face turned red, and the eight-foot man was so ashamed that he didn't dare to talk.

"Captain Zhu, you say. As soon as Ji Rin's voice fell, several captains glanced at each other, where there are many people, it is indispensable to divide factions, the forbidden army is naturally not an iron plate, thirteen captains, with Zhang Lang and Zhu Yuan each accounting for half of the country, and Lang Jun, who was standing on the side with a navy blue cloak, called Wei Yun, is a family of its own.

Zhang Lang has a strong temperament, is informal, and has a good face, and has the most thorns under his hands; Zhu Yuan is a delicate person with all sides, and likes elegance, and most of the people with him have also studied poetry and books seriously; as for Wei Yun, he has a cold and arrogant temperament, and he is quiet and ungregarious, but in fact he looks like a true immortal like a mortal.

There were rumors in the barracks before, the first was Zhang Lang's chewing tongue, followed by Zhu Yuan and his gang secretly promoting, but Ji Rin did not start with the rumors, one is difficult to find out the source, and the other is that the rumors are just a while, if he really investigates, I am afraid that it will intensify.

But this doesn't mean that he really let the group of forbidden soldiers under him come indiscriminately.

At that time, people had a cloud of "poor literature and rich martial arts", and those who could learn a hand of martial arts and stand out among several people and were selected into the forbidden army were all wealthy people, these people used to be in the ban, and the hardest thing was just to stand guard for a day, but Zhou Jian was a kind character, and he was quite friendly to his subordinates, and the forbidden army was divided into three shifts a day. They went home after being laid off to freshen up, and then went to Chang'an Wutong with their colleagues to drink and chat, and lived a leisurely life.

And Ji Rin took everyone to walk for seven days in a row, every day with a disgraced face, and fell asleep after camping, tonight it is rare to arrive at Hanhai at dusk, and by the water, how can these dusty Lang Jun stand it? Even on the first day, Ji Rin asked Wang Xiu and others to promulgate the camp rules, and the first day was to be stationed at night, and they were not allowed to go out of the camp without authorization, but he expected that the previous few days had allowed these Lang Jun to naturally have no respect for him, and the camp rules were probably regarded as a breeze in his ears and ignored.

Even if there are some people who remember and dare not commit it, he estimates that he has no scruples about touching the thorns under Zhang Lang's hands.

It was because he arranged the people who camped at night today that he specially chose the head of Zhu Yuan's side, and Wei Yun was the leader.

Wei Yun has an arrogant temperament, and the task he has identified is naturally to be completed in 1510, with him watching, Zhu Yuan's sect leader will naturally not be lazy, but will seriously check the number of people; and Zhu Yuan and Zhang Lang have been unpleasant for a long time, if they really catch the person who ran out of the camp to bathe, especially if they find that they usually do not deal with themselves, they will naturally not let go.

"General Yu, on the first day of the trip, the general ordered Wang Langjun to pass the camp rules, and he was not allowed to leave the camp at night, and today his command and Captain Wei were on guard together, and found that there were lights on the lake, and the behavior was sneaky, and his subordinates stepped forward to drink, and caught more than 20 people who left the camp without permission and bathed in the lake, and specially tied up to ask the general to rule tomorrow. "Zhu Yuan is serious," unexpectedly, Captain Zhang broke into Captain Wei's camp at night, and ordered Captain Wei to release people overnight, and the last general woke up when he heard the noise, and saw that the two were arguing, so he only disturbed the general late at night. ”

"How to deal with those who violate the rules of the camp?" Ji Rin heard this, and said angrily, "Captain Wei!"

"Regardless of grade, they will be punished with twenty rods. Wei Yun replied.

"Captain Zhang, do you remember?" Ji Rin's eyes flashed.

"The last general remembers!" Zhang Lang moved his lips, but he still didn't say anything to defend himself.

"That's the case, execution!" Ji Rin immediately shouted, and when he arrived, an executioner stepped forward to take off the shirts of the more than 20 people, press them on the bench and snap them.

"General! The last general is also guilty of negligence, and the general is also asked to punish him as well. Zhang Lang couldn't help but be anxious when he saw his brother being beaten, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee towards Ji Rin! At this time, his heart was mixed, and he deeply regretted that he had allowed his subordinates to flout the rules of the camp to have tonight's incident, and for a while he deeply hated Zhu Yuan for not giving face, and he could have done things privately, but he just made a fuss, and it came to this point.

"If it is said that the crime of negligence, this general also has it, even so, the same crime will be punished, this general and Captain Zhang will be punished with twenty rods!" Ji Rin finished speaking, took off his cloak, took off his armor, took off his robe, and stood on the spot, under the bright firelight, it can be seen that the scars on his back are deep and shallow, and everyone realized at this time that the person who has been talking about them these days is a general who has been guarding the border since he was twelve years old, and has established outstanding feats with a knife and a shot, one of the two masters of the empire, the previous contempt and indifference, has turned into deep respect.

Unlike the sergeants lying on the bench and being tortured, Ji Rin always stood in place, like a cold stone sculpture.

The rattan cane hit the back and made a dull sound, but it was as if there was a drum beating on everyone's hearts, and the tortured sergeant next to him was still wailing, but at this time, seeing Ji Rin always motionless, he also swallowed the cry that blurted out, and the vague concept of the strong in the past suddenly became the appearance of the person in front of him, and there were seeds planted in their hearts.

Thousands of miles away in Chang'an, the husband carried a lantern and walked slowly across the stone road, all the way over, all the way down, and the sound of the monk's chanting came from not far away.

"Ah Miao, go sleep for a while, there will be guests tomorrow. Ji Sanniang was dressed in a dark blue flower-sprinkled long-sleeved long dress, a gray flower-sprinkled fairy skirt, with a set of plain silver and jade-inlaid heads, sitting in the small flower hall on the side, after coming to Ji's house, she did not take it as a matter of hand, but pointed out Ji Miao's deficiencies from the side, the two aunts and nephews talked for a while and became more and more intimate, at this time listening to the sound of beating outside the house, she raised her eyes to look at the missing moment, and then reached out and patted Ji Miao's shoulder.

"Auntie. Ji Miao raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, raised her head from the account book, and stopped talking.

"I only have a niece like you, what else do we aunts and nephews have to say?" Ji Sanniang reached out and touched the girl's cold hands, and her tone was indescribably pitiful.

"Auntie, I'm worried about Daddy. Ji Miao frowned and said, "Since he came back from the court, he ordered his brother to go to the Big Buddha Temple to invite the host to recite the Sutra of Death for Ah Niang, and he followed the abbot of the Big Buddha Temple to chant the Sutra together. ”

"Don't worry, I will naturally persuade my brother to go back first. Ji Sanniang took off the haired cloak with silver satin embroidered moire on the side and put it on Ji Miao's side, and stuffed a hand stove with silver cloud dragon pattern into Ji Miao's arms.

"The room was cleaned up, and my aunt rested early. Ji Miao squatted down and saluted, and then took the maid back to her yard.

Ji Sanniang watched the little maid give tea to the great monk who chanted the scriptures, and then beckoned a maid to come over and ask Ji Yan's traces.

"Is my brother resting?" she stood at the door of the study, looking at Ji Yan's lonely shadow cast on the wall, and remembered that when her sister-in-law first got married, she and her sister-in-law played double land under the lamp, and her brother was studying for exams at the other end of the room.

"It's Ah Ling. Ji Yan sat in front of the desk in a daze, holding a few thin pieces of paper in his hands.

"I heard that Brother Ah has never eaten since he came back from the court, Ah Miao was very worried, I advised her to go and rest first, so I came to see Brother. Ji Sanniang heard her brother call her daughter's name, her heart became more and more sour, and she listened to the words of comfort that were originally in her mouth for a while, before she walked over and knelt down on the scale beside him, and said slowly while taking the dishes out of the food box.

“...... I have been married to Ah Ying for 20 years, and I have not blushed for a day, I have a little softness, I am not like the Ji family, but Ah Ying has a spicy temperament, and my grandmother said that I and she seemed to have the wrong gender, and they should be husband and wife. Ji Yan said affectionately and couldn't help choking, "Back then, in Shuoxue Pass, she agreed to marry me, that day Shuoxue Pass snow fell like flying, we went back to the post station along the long street in the Guannei from this end, the snow was covered with hair, I said that I and her will be white-headed in this life, but ......"

"Brother......" Ji Ling heard him say that when he was young, a happy color appeared on his face, and when he saw that his brother's side bun was as white as frost and snow, he turned his face slightly, and tears fell like rain.

"Since the day she married me, she has been my Ji family, but I hate me, but I can't bless her well!" Ji Yan whispered, almost silent, "A few days ago, the Ji family was in turmoil, teaching people to be stigmatized, I am an elder but useless, but I rely on Yuan Zhao to turn around, but ...... But I didn't even notice the heaviness in Ah Ying's heart, and I, my Ji Yan, were husband in vain. ”

"Brother!" Ji Ling couldn't help but hold her brother's hand, tears fell like beads, she never felt clumsy like this moment, and she couldn't even say the words of explanation next to her, "Sister-in-law admires Brother and I don't want Brother to be so sad!"

"When I went to the Shen family to propose marriage, Ah Jun was only nineteen at the time, I promised him that Ah Ying would be his wife, and this life would not make her sad for a day, but now I broke my promise. Ji Yan looked at her crying sister, and quietly took a handkerchief to wipe her face, "You also know that I liked Buddhism the most when I was young, and I visited Buddhism all the year round, and I met Ah Ying, and now that Ah Ying is gone, my three thousand troubles should also have a place to go." ”

"Brother!" Hearing the meaning of wanting to escape into the empty door revealed in his brother's words, Ji Ling couldn't help but be surprised, "What about Ah Yan and Ah Miao? What do you let them do?"

“...... Ah Miao can now be on her own, as for Ah Miao, she has her brother to take care of her, and there is a sister-in-law on the left and right. Ji Yan's expression was sad, and there was a sense of dejection in his tone.

"What about me! Ji Ling didn't care about losing face, "The Ji family was in turmoil, Chen Zhen left me and the two Xiaolang, brother, the eldest brother is no longer there, I only rely on you to support me, if you escape into the empty door and become a monk, who else will go to the Chen family for me to seek justice!"

"Ah Ling, if the husband and wife are not compatible, you will have nothing to reconcile with him. Ji Yan paused and smiled bitterly, "Ah Ying only met me after he left. ”
