Ye Shikai and Xu Jia chatted until late at night, and talked a lot about public and private matters, Ye Shikai has always been very curious about Xu Jia's plans in the future, after all, with his talent, once he gets important, it is bound to surprise the world, belonging to the talent of "If you can't use it for me, you will be killed by me", but well, according to Xu Jia's criteria for choosing the master, I'm afraid that there are not many people in this world who are qualified to let him go out of the mountain to assist, thinking about it like this, Ye Shikai still feels very lucky, but unfortunately, his "little world" , after all, it is not the "big stage" that Xu Jia wants to run to.

At the entrance of the house.

"Lao Ye, just send it here, please stay. ”

"Lao Xu, when are you going to leave, I'...... I'm going to see them off. Ye Shikai was really reluctant to let Xu Jia leave, but there is no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, not to mention, Xu Jia has his own pursuits, and it is useless to force it.

"Actually, this time I came to say goodbye. Xu Jiazuo said, "I'm going to leave Linxiang later." ”

"Is it so urgent, or else...... Wait a few more days. Ye Shikai was a little surprised, the world is so big, Xu Jia travels all over the world, it is equivalent to no news, there is no "mobile phone" in this era, and when we meet again, I don't know when......

"No need, leave early and leave late, you have to go, there is no need to worry about morning and evening. Xu Jia clenched his fists and bowed slowly, "Lao Ye, I feel very happy to get along with you during this time, if everyone can be like you, then the world should really be peaceful." ”

After hearing this, Ye Shikai was very moved, he wanted to keep it, but Xu Jia had already made up his mind, and he couldn't stop it.

"Old Ye, we will meet again in the future. ”

"Well, even if we make an agreement, we will definitely meet again in the future. Ye Shikai asked Shangguan Jian's deputy general of the guard army to lead Xu Jia to the city gate, it is late at night, there is a curfew in the city, and the city gate is naturally closed, but the east gate guard is Shangguan Jian's henchman, which can make it convenient for Xu Jia to go out of the city.

After Xu Jia left, Ye Shikai suddenly remembered the matter of the bag, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, this bag was left to him by Xu Jia, saying that it was opened at a critical moment, and there was a clever plan in it, he wanted to ask, but just now the two chatted, and Ye Shikai actually forgot about it.

Ye Shikai took out the bag and wanted to open it to take a look, but as soon as he opened it, his hand stopped, hesitated for a while, or put the bag back into his pocket, since Xu Jia said that you can only see it at a critical moment, then Ye Shikai believes him, and only when he waits for a moment of crisis, will he take it out and look at it.

"Mr. Xu, he's gone. In the bedroom, He Linghan asked lightly, Ye Shikai looked a little lost, which made her a little worried.

"Yes, he's gone, and maybe we'll never see each other again. Ye Shikai lay on the bed and kept sighing, no wonder when he was in school, he often learned the farewell poems written by the ancients.

Xu Jia has traveled all over the world, his ambition is to find a king worthy of his assistance, in fact, Ye Shikai was already very clear when he parted, this was the last time the two met.

"Husband, don't be too sad, how can there be a banquet in the world, not to mention, Mr. Xu is also pursuing his own ideals, we should support it, right. He Linghan sat beside him and said softly.

"yes, you're right, I hope he and I still have a chance to meet. ”

.................................................................................

After Xu Jia left, Ye Shikai often felt lonely, although Shangguan Jian and Man Cang often came to visit Ye Mansion, but after all, they still had to lead troops, and the mansion was deserted, fortunately, He Linghan was always by his side.

Of course, Ye Shikai doesn't stay in the house all the time, and there are many interesting places in Linxiang City......

Teahouse.

"Shangguan, how are you doing? ”

"It's nothing, it's training every day, in fact, I don't have to watch those jobs at all, after the war in Bashu, the lord will reduce his military service and recuperate, but it's really idle." "The teahouse is a place of recreation, and Ye Shikai often invites Shangguan Jian to come here for tea and chat.

"Then don't relax, the generals and soldiers who have lived comfortably for a long time are sheep on the battlefield. Ye Shikai reminded.

"Lao Ye, you still care so much about the affairs of the army. Shangguan Jian said casually, Ye Shikai was a little nervous, indeed, it has been almost two years since he crossed here, most of which was in the army, first the Qin army, and then the Chu army, commanding the army to fight, it seems to have become a part of his life, resigned from the official, and often thought of the training in his mind, and he also asked the secret guard to explore the war on the Great Wall in the north and report to him at any time.

"Just ask. ”

"Seriously, Lao Ye, do you want to consider returning to the army, your ability to command the army is obvious to all, and with you, our old brothers can also rest assured, in addition, the lord should also want you to come back, as long as you are willing, she will definitely reuse you." Shangguan Jian saw that Ye Shikai didn't speak, and continued, "Actually, I know very well what you're thinking, Lao Ye, you must still be worried about the prisoners of war in the last master's pit." ”

"Indeed, killing so many people indiscriminately is a hasty human life, and it is definitely not the work of a benevolent lord. Ye Shikai nodded in response.

"I was also angry in those days, after the battle of Bashu, the lord personally sat in Bashu for two months, the first thing was to recuperate, reduce the forced labor, let the people live a stable life, and even sent money to the families of those Qin prisoners of war, so that two months later, no people in Bashu have said bad things about the lord. ”

"She's pretty good at winning people's hearts. Ye Shikai sighed lightly, people seem to be a creature that is easy to forget the pain, after Miwen entered Sichuan, he abolished the harsh taxes of the imperial court, as well as cruel torture, reduced forced labor, and recuperated, these are what the people really want, although she did kill 80,000 people, but in comparison, the people are more willing to lean towards the former, and the long pain is better than the short pain.

"Lao Ye, creating a peaceful and prosperous world also requires a price, maybe hundreds of thousands of lives, maybe more ......"

"Two ...... Two adults. Suddenly, the shopkeeper of the teahouse hurried upstairs, panting.

"What's going on, so panicked. ”

"It's the lord...... The lord himself came, and she wanted to see the two adults. ”

Knock, knock, knock, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and before the two of them could react, the wooden door had been slowly pushed open, and Mi Wen walked straight in.
