Day and night alternate, the sun slowly rises over the horizon, the sun shines through the thick clouds, the light returns to the earth, and a new day begins.

It was not yet dawn, but the people lying in the room had already opened their eyes.

He only has one eye.

The other eye was covered by a piece of white cotton gauze, and there were some brown marks left on it, I don't know if it was blood, medicine, or something.

Tie Yihou lay on the bed, feeling empty in his heart.

Losing an eye is nothing, he's not young anymore, missing an eye doesn't affect anything, as long as he can still see things, what's the matter? When he was young, he stayed in the barracks for many years, and when wars broke out frequently, he spent most of the year fighting on the battlefield, bleeding and being injured became commonplace! When I calmed down, all I could think about was the pictures of those battles, bloody fights, stumps and broken arms, and firelight......

War is cruel, who can guarantee that they will come back alive after they go to the battlefield? Who can guarantee that they will come back in one piece?

No one can guarantee it.

He was lucky, although he had suffered both major and minor injuries, but at least his limbs were intact, and those wounds eventually healed into scars, which remained on his body and in his heart.

Although he has lost an eye now, his life is saved, and his hands and feet are still there, this is Da'an.

Tie Yihou secretly said, "Good luck", and then fell into deep pain.

He lost an eye, and it was nothing; He was attacked by a thief at night, and he could not be guaranteed at night, and he might become the laughing stock of his political opponents, which is nothing; What really grieved him was his son!

His eldest son, the one who was born white and fat. staring at his child with two big round eyes; The child who laughed at the sight of himself and couldn't help but stretch out his hand to him; the toddler, staggering into his arms; That opening learns to speak. The first word says "daddy" child, so sincere. Clean, let his first father reckless man moved a mess of the child, as if he was still in his arms yesterday, and in a blink of an eye he grew into a handsome young man, his arms still seem to have the faint milk fragrance of his infancy, his hands seem to be able to feel his tender and delicate little hands, and his sweet call seems to be heard in his ears. Why did he become like this in a blink of an eye?

Tie Yihou let out a long breath of turbidity, and the lost eye was still aching, but it really hurt. It's his heart.

Long Eagle, Long Eagle, you are the child I have high hopes for, for every parent, their first child is always special and high hopes. You are the eldest son and grandson of the Tie family, and you are the successor of the Tieyi Marquis Mansion in the future, and the power of the entire Tie family will be yours sooner or later, why did you move such a mind that you shouldn't have?

Trying to kill his father and replace him......

That's great! He was loyal to the country all his life. The top is worthy of the sky, the bottom is worthy of the earth, and the middle is worthy of his conscience, and he asks himself to stand up to the sky and the earth all his life, worthy of the heaven and the earth, but himself, how did he give birth to such a beast who harbors evil intentions and is rebellious?

Some pictures flashed in Tie Yihou's mind, all of which were fragments of his relationship with his eldest son in the past six months, those details that were not very clear and not obvious suddenly became clear in his mind!

"Father, the emperor is in the prime of life, and his heart is naturally higher, he is not one of those old people who is dying, he just wants to live a comfortable life. Father, since you know that the emperor intends to go to war, why do you dissuade him three times and twice? ”

"Father, it's not that the son doesn't want the world to be peaceful, but in addition to conforming to the will of the people, isn't the mind of the Son of Heaven more important? As courtiers, we don't want to speculate on the holy will without authorization, but knowing that the emperor intends to go to war, let's return the peace, will this leave a gap for those who have a heart? When the time comes, we will be charged with a crime against the holy will, although it will not cause trouble, I am afraid that the trouble will not be small, and I hope that my father will think twice. ”

"If the father is unwilling to go to war, and the son is willing to take his father to fight, the name of our Tieyi Marquis Mansion must not be underestimated."

"Father, this is an opportunity!"

……

Since when did his son become so eager to become famous? He seems to feel that he has full wings, so he can't wait for a chance to prove himself? Where are the opportunities after the generals? It's not war yet!

Tie Yihou finally understands now why the attitude of father and son in politics is so different! Why would the son ignore his own attitude and secretly manipulate his hands. He really needs a chance, a chance to prove that he is not relying on his father to gain a foothold in Beijing, he wants to prove that he is not a fool, he also wants to prove that one generation is stronger than the next, and that he has surpassed his father in this world. But he never thought about what this war would bring to Dayong if Dayong and Wana went to war, except for his own selfishness?

Tie Yihou sighed, the young man has lived a peaceful life for too long, and he doesn't know how to cherish it, let alone what war is all about, and how it is hated. Speaking of which, the peace between Dayong and Wana has been nearly a hundred years, although this is only a superficial calm, but after all, there has been no major war and turmoil between the two countries, and the small frictions on the border have been directly ignored by some people.

The defection of King Qing'an has already broken the illusion of this equilibrium, and the relationship between Dayong and Wana has become even more strained. Dayong is rich, in the eyes of the Wana people, Dayong is a piece of oily and watery fat, the distance between the two is far away, they are still frequently chaotic, stirring up the border will never be peaceful, now Wana's national strength is increasing, the gap between the two countries has narrowed a lot, the fat meat close at hand stirs people's hearts more and more greedy, Wana people are all fierce and ruthless characters, there is no reason not to fight for it......

Once the war starts, I am afraid that the loss of the treasury will not be small, when the people are displaced, the land of Dayong is full of wolf smoke, the kind of scorched earth and rubble, the scene of broken walls will make people breathless, as the war intensifies, I am afraid that everywhere I see is purgatory on earth, everywhere you can see the scene of dead corpses everywhere, the prosperous and stable Dayong will no longer exist, replaced by the turbulent, panicked Dayong, he seems to have seen the world everywhere wailing, the tragedy of the spread of the plague!

The two countries must not go to war! Once the war starts, this war will bring more unexpected troubles, other small countries are only afraid that they will stare at Dayong, in case they form an alliance with Wana, when Dayong suffers from the enemy, the enemy to deal with is not just a Wana, if they unite, then the enemy that Dayong will face will be unprecedentedly powerful, even if they win this war by luck, I am afraid that Dayong's national strength will drop to an unimaginable level, and then any small country with a little strength, may kick the crumbling Dayong into the abyss......

Tie Yihou let out a long sigh, and his eyes reflected a resolute light, perhaps because he only had one eye, this light was extremely strong and dazzling, as if it would pop out at any time.

Tie Yihou closed his eyes, slowly emptied the thoughts in his mind, and dispelled the feelings in his heart, and after a while, he opened his eyes, he slowly sat up, and after making sure that he didn't feel any discomfort, he began to tidy up his clothes. In the past few days of illness, he has been lying in bed, firstly, he is indeed injured and cannot move at will, and secondly, he has not yet figured out how to face his son, and his mood is complicated, and he actually has the psychology of escape, so he simply lies on the bed and can't get up. Now that the injury is getting better, he has also decided what to do, as soon as the burden in his heart disappears, the person is also a little more energetic, only to find that his old bones have stiffened because they have not moved for too long, like a rusty treasure knife, if you don't sharpen it, how can you let the blade see the light of day again?

Tie Yihou took care of himself and changed his clothes, his movements were very gentle, as if in slow motion, I don't know if the injury was not good, reluctantly, or he deliberately slowed down his movements, this old general galloping in the sand place moved beautifully to change his clothes, if you watch from the sidelines, I am afraid that he will not be able to connect him with a fiery general. He simply changed his clothes, untied his hair again, put his fingers together at random, tied up his slightly gray hair again, tied it into a bun, and fastened it with a gilt hairpin, and then he came to a dresser not far away.

The dresser is an old thing in the house, made of very ordinary wood, the style is old-fashioned, and not expensive, there is a broken copper mirror on it, and you know that it is old at a glance, and it has not been maintained for a long time.

Tie Yihou slowly walked to the bronze mirror, and the mirror reflected the image of an old man with a slight vicissitudes of life, only a few days of hard work, he lost a lot of weight, his face was not very good, and his left eye was covered by a piece of white cotton gauze, as if he was hiding something.

He's old, what else is he hiding?

Tie Yihou slowly tore open the piece of white cotton gauze, probably pulling the wound, the corners of his mouth twitched twice, and finally ripped the cloth off.

The round and sharp eyes are no longer there, there is only a tattered wound left, some places have begun to scab, some places have not yet grown, he pulled it like this, and some blood stains oozed out, which looked a little bloody and mushy.

Not bad.

Tie Zhihou breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that there would be a big hole here, as long as it was not a hole, it would be good.

There were footsteps outside the house, one heavy and one light, it should be his two sons and daughters.

Tie Yihou wanted to put back the cotton cloth that covered his eyes and fix it, but this thing was originally stuck to the wound by the power of medicine, and it was easy to be torn apart, but it was difficult to stick it back again.

He tried twice, but it didn't work. The cotton cloth seemed to be deliberately against him, either falling off the whole piece or sliding down half of it, which was very funny.

While Tie Yihou was fighting with the cotton cloth, the door was pushed open.

ps：

The second is delivered in advance.
