Chapter 43: A Thousand Miles Home
Never so flustered, Chen Wei settled down and turned around and went to the general's camp. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"What, you want to go back to Huadu?" The mighty general looked at Chen Wei very unexpectedly, his expression was very serious and solemn, and said: "Do you know that the war is not over yet, if you leave the barracks, you will escape from the battle, and you will be guilty of a serious crime, and your family will sit together." β
Chen Wei naturally understood what the mighty general said, but as long as he thought that Qingjia was now at home and his situation was unknown, his heart hurt so much, and he really couldn't bear it for a moment.
"That's not what my subordinates meant." The mighty general also noticed that Chen Wei's tone at this time was also much heavier than usual, "General, if there is no accident after this battle, the imperial court will definitely accept it, and there will be no war in Yuncheng for the time being." β
As soon as Chen Wei's words fell, the mighty general turned around suddenly, and his sharp and inquiring gaze struck like a rain of arrows, making it almost impossible to look directly: "How do you know that the Yi clan has withdrawn and the court has negotiated peace?" β
The military newspaper was sent to Huadu a few days ago, and at this moment the court should face up to the fierce controversy, but the point is that others are thousands of miles away but seem to have their hearts in the court.
The mighty general is already a veteran of the battlefield, and he knows that the current emperor is faint and cowardly, and he has always emphasized literature over military force, and it is reasonable to discuss peace, but he still does not dare to assert that he is so categorical, hasn't he always exchanged news with Huadu?
Thinking of this, the vigilance of the mighty general all over his body rose, and the various things that Chen Wei showed from the beginning were no longer something that an ordinary man could achieve.
Superb skills, excellent strategy, calm and calm before major events, calm and calm in crisis, and now it is a long-term vision of military and politics.
I was shocked by his talent at the beginning, so I didn't think about this layer. Where can an ordinary child have such qualifications, his Wen Taowu strategy is so outstanding, and his life experience must not be simple.
Could it be......
The mighty general's eyes when he looked at Chen Wei were no longer the same as before, and now he was a little more vigilant and probing.
Chen Wei saw that he was suspicious and knew his concerns, so he could only explain: "The Yi clan lost this battle, the cold winter is coming, and they will definitely not be able to fight again, and now the saint is ......."
The mighty general listened to his detailed analysis, and his complexion softened slightly.
ββ¦β¦ Therefore, this assertion is by no means presumptuous, and it is indeed reasonable. β
Chen Wei's analysis is reasonable, without errors or omissions, which is irrefutable and convincing. If it were someone else, he would probably be skeptical, after all, the emperor's heart is ninefold, and it is difficult to guess, but the mighty general knows that what he said is very true, and suddenly has doubts in his heart:
"Who are you?" He was really puzzled: "Or do you want me to send someone to investigate?" β
Chen Wei was now in a state of confusion, naturally he didn't have the heart to guess the entanglement and surprise in the mighty general's heart at the moment, but seeing his serious complexion, he understood what he meant after a little thought, looked directly at his sharp gaze, was calm and frank, and looked resolute, and said: "Father-Chen Yunding." β
When the mighty general heard this, he stood up instantly, his heart was shocked, he couldn't believe it, and said: "Your grandfather is Chen Ding, the Yasukuni Gong who pacified the four razes and destroyed the Rong country?" β
Chen Wei listened to him talk about these achievements about his grandfather, which he had been familiar with since he was a child, and he was also in a trance for a while, and his heart was indescribably desolate, and he said in a low voice: "I didn't expect the general to remember these ......."
He also said that these have long been forgotten with the collapse of the Chen family, after all, right and wrong, it has always been the mood of the heavenly family.
The mighty general became excited, and said, "How can I not know that your grandfather was a superb figure back then......"
He was emotional, and he had a desire not to vomit unpleasantly, but suddenly thinking of the current situation of the Chen family, he couldn't say the rest of the words.
Chen Wei didn't care, after all, the matter was a foregone conclusion, and it was useless to think about it too much, all he could do now was to start all over again.
The mighty general's heart was still agitated, and he couldn't help but blame Chen Wei for concealing it: "Why didn't you say it earlier, if you had known earlier......"
Suddenly, he had a mouthful, even if he had said it earlier. The Chen family has perished, and everyone is afraid of getting into trouble, and they are all afraid of avoiding it.
Even if he is amazingly talented, no one dares to say it, so he can only be buried, so it is better to be incognito and let everything go to zero. If it's a capable person, then it's going to come out anyway.
At this moment, he suddenly understood Chen Wei's various hardships.
"Alas," he patted Chen Wei on the shoulder and comforted: "I have been guarding the border for a long time and have not returned to the court, and there is no news here, the Chen family ...... At that time, I really couldn't help, although I didn't see your father, but I always revered your grandfather, and later I also knew that he had a grandson who was very important, but I didn't expect it to be you, and now I see that it is really a genius of Jiangmen, and he lives up to his reputation! β
The mighty general had already cherished Chen Wei's talent, and now he was even more appreciative after knowing his background.
Chen Wei was just silent, and now he was full of worries, and no amount of praise could reduce the worries in his heart.
ββ¦β¦ However, your grandfather was well-known in the army, and he had countless protΓ©gΓ©s, many of whom were in high positions. β
The mighty general spent most of his life guarding in remote places, so he didn't know much about the affairs of the court and didn't care much, and the Chen family only learned about it from his former colleagues a long time after the crime, but the details were not very clear.
But he couldn't figure it out anyway, the Chen family has countless talents, and there are many high-ranking people, especially in the army. But it's really puzzling how it collapsed overnight, and there was no one to speak for it.
When Chen Wei heard this, he smiled bitterly in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that others couldn't understand it, now the emperor is deaf and indulges in pleasure. But this was not the case when he first ascended the throne, and Emperor Longqing at that time was ambitious and wanted to hold the power tightly in his hands as soon as he ascended the throne.
is the so-called high merit and shocking the master, Chen Jiashu's big move is naturally not tolerated by him, so later, in order to weaken the power of the Chen family, when he took back his grandfather's military power, he had the intention to cultivate the Jinyang Marquis Mansion, who also served in the army, to divide the Chen family's power in the army. Outsiders seem to be that the Chen family is still beautiful, but in fact, the family already knows that they are suspected by the heavenly family, so they are very cautious.
has been careful for many years, cautious not to let people grasp the handle, but in the end because of the Huai Xiang case was implicated, and finally was uprooted by the opportunity.
Therefore, although Chen Wei has been a jade man since he was a child, his identity is respected and he is highly expected by his grandfather at home, he also knows that the situation is not good, so he never causes trouble, and he knows how to judge the situation and judge people's hearts since he was a child.
It's a pity that he has just fallen to the Chen family, and his family was ruined before he could do anything.
Seeing that Chen Wei was expressionless, the mighty general knew that he didn't want to mention the past, and secretly regretted that he was talking too much, so he quickly changed the topic: "What are you asking for today?" "Chen Wei wants to leave early, which is really not tolerated by military law, if someone else dares to say this, he will definitely ask someone to drag him out and behead him without asking.
ββ¦β¦ Even if what you say is right, but military law has never been ruthless, is the barracks a place where you can come and go when you want? β
Chen Wei endured and endured: "General, I do have a last resort, after the Chen family was wronged, my father died unjustly in prison, my mother lingered on the sickbed, since I joined the army, my wife has been taken care of at home, today I received a letter from home, my wife is seriously injured, I am really uneasy, I have to have this request." β
After hearing this, General Wu Wei was also sympathetic: "So that's the case," but his face was sad: "But if there is no order, no soldier is allowed to leave the camp, this is a military order, and it cannot be changed unless it is a holy order." β
Chen Wei's heart continued to sink, in fact, he himself understood that there was little hope, but when he thought of Qingjia, he couldn't control the mood of returning home thousands of miles.
The mighty general pondered for a moment and said, "In this way, if the imperial court really wants to negotiate peace, I will allow you to go first when the holy decree comes." β
Under normal circumstances, if the imperial court decides to negotiate peace, then the rest of the matter has nothing to do with them, and the affairs of the chief generals of both sides of the contract are above him, and he has the general Zhengxi above, which is not under his control.
After the peace is negotiated, the army can return to the DPRK. The mighty general meant that at that time, he would find a random excuse to let Chen Wei carry out the order and leave first, after all, the war was over, and it was a matter of time before he returned to the dynasty, and no one would suspect anything.
Chen Wei knew that this was already the most appropriate method, and after calculating the time, he estimated that the edict of the imperial court would come down in two days, so he nodded after thinking about it.
Sure enough, three days later, the edict of peace came down, and the mighty general took the opportunity to find an excuse for him to get out and leave.
Chen Wei couldn't care about anything at the moment, so he rode a thousand-mile horse and rushed out of Cloud City, all the way to Huadu.
Jiajia, wait for me.
*************
After Qingjia was injured, it took two days and two nights to recover, and when he woke up, his body was already weak, and he lost a lot of weight, which made people feel very distressed.
When He Yingyuan saw her wake up, he wanted to say a few words to her, but when he saw her haggard face, he couldn't bear it, so he could only sigh: "Alas, look at what you are tossing, making yourself like this, you are the one who suffers, is it difficult for others to hurt for you?" β
Qingjia's lips were chapped, his throat was tingling, and he could barely speak, but his eyes were full of gratitude, He Yingyuan stroked his forehead and said, "Don't look at me like that, I still have to say what I should say." β
But what can I say, she's like this now.
Alas, it's just that, what do you care about with a little woman?
He Yingyuan had no choice but to find a step down by himself, so he looked left and right and said to him: "I said that I haven't seen you for a short time, but you are very different here, I see the medicinal materials in the courtyard and want to open a medicine shop soon." β
Qing Jia was also a little proud in his heart when he heard it, and completely forgot what the reason for his miserable situation was now.
He Yingyuan was also very surprised at first, he thought that Qingjia was going to study medicine just on a whim, and the woman's family did this kind of work, but when he heard the news and hurried over, as soon as he approached the courtyard, he saw that her shelves were densely filled with all kinds of dried medicinal materials, including many rare varieties, and he was shocked for a while.
How did this little woman do it?
Although Qingjia had difficulty speaking, he still made a short nasal voice: "Hmph." β
He Yingyuan couldn't laugh or cry when he saw her smug little appearance, and thought to himself, this little girl really can't boast.
The two talked for a while, and seeing that she was fine, He Yingyuan got up and said goodbye, and before leaving, he prepared the medicine she wanted to use in her yard, so he could rest assured.
Although Qingjia was seriously injured this time, after all, he was young and healed quickly, and soon the abrasions on his body healed and fell off, leaving only the fracture of his right foot.
As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to break her muscles and bones, but fortunately, the neighbors in the village are willing to help, and the carpenter brother at the head of the village also made a wheelchair for her to facilitate her daily movements, Qingjia was moved.
But most of the time, she still bends her injured leg, holds on to things, jumps and jumps to do things, like an injured frog, and only sits in a wheelchair when she is quiet.
On this day, the rare good weather, although it is still cold, but there is sunshine, shining on people's hearts warm. Qingjia sat in a wheelchair and sorted out the freshly dried medicinal herbs in the courtyard.
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near.
Qingjia looked up, and in an instant, the white qi in his hand was sprinkled on the ground:
"Third Brother ......"
