Chapter 18 The night is as cool as water, and the trees are all autumn colors
..................
"Bang", two loud slaps fell heavily on Shi Yue's face.
Shi Yu was furious.
The battle of the Northern Wangfu has ended, and after cleaning up the battlefield and searching around, I didn't see Su Jinmeng, the daughter of Su Dichu, the king of the North Dynasty.
I've been rummaging through the back garden.
The soldier lifted the branches and leaves that Shi Yue had piled up at the entrance of the cave where Su Jinmeng was hiding, and went in to search.
Shi Yue looked nervously, and her heart was raised in her voice,
Cold sweat broke out in the palms of his hands.
The soldiers searched it out, but there was no Su into a dream.
Soldier: "General, this garden has been searched all over the place, but nothing has been found!"
The boulder in Shi Yue's heart fell.
Shi Yu: "Hmph!"
He glared at Shi Yue angrily,
Shi Yu: "What about people?!"
Shi Yu: "What about Su Dichu's daughter!"
raised his hand and slapped the man in front of him several loud times.
"Bang Bang Bang"
Straight to Shi Yue's tinnitus, he was unsteady on his feet, took a few steps back, and fell heavily to the ground.
Blood oozed from the corners of the mouth.
Shi Yu pointed at the Zhu family on the ground and yelled at Shi Yue.
Shi Yu: "Su Dichu's daughter has always been with her mother, why is there only her mother here!"
Shi Yu: "Where's she?!"
Shi Yu: "Where's Su Dichu's daughter?!"
Shi Yue knelt at his feet, covered his face, hung his head and didn't dare to say a word.
Shi Yu: "You were the only one here in this garden just now, and only you know what happened!"
Shi Yu: "You!"
Shi Yu: "Hmph! Go back and have your !! of feeling"
He kicked Shi Yue over and walked out angrily.
The soldiers hurriedly followed.
Only Shi Yue was left in the garden.
After a long time, he slowly got up and followed with heavy steps.
............
And the people in the tent will bow their heads and stand in solemnity.
Shi Yu was sitting in the middle.
Shi Yue hesitated outside the tent.
He looked at the door of the tent and felt a pang of fear in his heart.
He knew what would be in front of him once he entered this door.
Military Order.
Life is a satire, you know the beginning, but you can't predict what the next step will be.
I desperately wanted to make war exploits, wanted to curry favor, and wanted to change my fate, but I never thought it would be like this.
How could it be her?
What kind of encounter will your own unbearable bring to yourself!
"Hmph! go back and have a good !! for you."
Thinking of Shi Yu's words, Shi Yue's heart trembled.
He was already feeling the pain of his flesh and bones.
General Shi Yue is really afraid to step into this door,
What awaits you is ......
In fact, he, as well as the generals in the tent, all know it.
Destiny......
Shi Yue wanted to cry.
In the face of fate, General Shi Yue felt so powerless,
So helpless......
............
Shi Yu was very happy that the expedition to the Northern Palace, and he rewarded the soldiers for his merits.
After the reward is finished, it is a punishment.
He turned his gaze coldly to Shi Yue.
In fact, in this expedition to the Northern Palace, Shi Yue had the highest actual combat merit. But Su Dichu's daughter fled, and this mistake negated all his credit.
General Shi Yu is in power, and the decision of the life and death of his subordinates depends on his thoughts.
It's so capricious!
Especially this Shi Yue,
In his eyes, it's not as good as mustard at all.
The originally elated camp tent suddenly quieted down, and everyone turned their eyes to Shi Yue.
Shi Yue stood with his head down.
Shi Yu coldly: "General Shi ......"
Shi Yue walked out of the ranks and knelt down.
Shi Yu: "In the first battle of the Northern Palace, General Shi made a lot of contributions! General Shi, how do you say I should reward you!"
Shi Yue fell to the ground.
Shi Yu: "Ladies and gentlemen, you say, in the face of the meritorious General Shi, how should I reward him?"
The generals looked at each other and did not dare to speak.
Shi Yu: "Shi Yue, say it yourself!"
Shi Yue kowtowed.
Shi Yue: "Please forgive the general, please forgive the general!"
Shi Yu: "What do I forgive you?"
Shi Yue only knew how to kowtow, so he dared to say it again.
Shi Yu: "There is a limit to human tolerance. Shi Yue: You have made mistakes again and again, and you have constantly challenged my bottom line. ”
Shi Yu: "The first crusade against the Northern Palace, you colluded with Gao Yunpeng, and I didn't dig deeper. You fled the barracks again, and I didn't deal with it. This time, you made a military order, but you let go of the evil seed!"
Shi Yu: "You say, how to deal with this matter?"
Shi Yu: "Punish you, they ask for mercy again, it seems that my heart is too ruthless, and it seems that I am unfair." ”
Shi Yu: "But if I let you go again this time, how can I maintain the morale of the army, and how can I rectify the military discipline?!"
When he said this, he said it to all the soldiers, and his words were very gentle, but he secretly had a murderous intention. In this way, who dares to stand up again, who dares to intercede with him?
For a while, there was silence in the tent, the atmosphere was tense, and the generals were submissive.
Shi Yu: "Shi Yue, what do you have to say?"
Shi Yue: "......"
Shi Yu: "Shi Yue, repeatedly violated military regulations, colluded with traitors, left the barracks privately, and let go of the traitors' families, the crime is unforgivable!"
Shi Yu: "I will report the situation of this battle to the imperial court, and the merits will be decided by the imperial court." ”
Shi Yu: "As for the guilty Shi Yue, he will be detained and imprisoned first, waiting for his fate." ”
Shi Yu: "Come on, hang Shi Yue in the playground and reprimand the guilty general, gather the soldiers to watch, and show punishment!"
The local soldiers were ordered to step forward, take off Shi Yue's armor, escort him to the center of the playground, hang his hands tied high, and began to whip.
After a while, a soldier came running in a hurry.
Soldier: "The general's order, the guilty general Shi Yue will take off his shirt to show humiliation!"
The soldiers next to him were taken aback and looked at each other.
The soldier announced again: "The general ordered, and the guilty general Shi Yue took off his clothes to show humiliation!"
The soldiers looked sad and did not move.
After hesitating for a while, the two soldiers stepped forward to strip Shi Yue's shirt.
Shi Yue's face turned pale and he glared at them in horror.
Shi Yue: "You guys!"
Shi Yue: "What are you going to do?!"
Soldier: "General Shi, please forgive us for being rude! This is the general's order!"
Shi Yue's body dodged, but he was hanging, how could he do it? It was painful, but there was no way.
Shi Yue: "No, don't do this!"
Shi Yue: "Please, please!"
The soldier stepped forward and forcibly stripped him of his shirt.
Shi Yue was full of grief and indignation: "You humiliate me like this!
The soldier was silent and took off his shirt.
The soldiers watching watched this scene silently, silent.
There was silence on the playground.
............
I don't know how long it took, Shi Yue was covered in bruises, his consciousness was already in a semi-coma, and his hair was scattered to cover his face.
The sound of horses' hooves broke the silence.
General Shi Jing came in from outside the camp gate with a few soldiers.
When he saw this, he was shocked.
He jumped off the horse, strode over, and was furious when he saw Shi Yue's miserable appearance.
He slapped the soldiers in the face and knocked them to the ground.
Shi Jing: "What are you doing?!"
The soldier knelt down: "General, this is the order of the great general!"
Shi Jing's face was pale and trembling.
His lips trembled with anger, and he really didn't know what to say.
Shi Jing took off the cloak on his body and wrapped it around Shi Yue's body.
Shi Jing shouted: "Put him down!"
The soldier hurriedly went up and put Shi Yue down.
Shi Jing hugged Shi Yue and saw that he was tortured to the point that he was not human, it was really heart-wrenching and indescribable.
After a long time, Shi Jing sighed from his body,
Shi Jing: "What should I do?!"
Shi Jing: "What are you going to do!!"
Shi Jing: "You...... What should I do?"
The soldiers were silent and dispersed.
............
Shi Jing broke into Shi Yu's tent,
Shi Jing excitedly: "You!"
Shi Yu: "Shi Jing, it's you! what's the matter?"
Shi Jing: "How can you treat him like this?!"
Shi Yu: "What?"
Shi Jing: "How can you do this to Shi Yue?"
Shi Jing: "Humiliate him like this!"
Shi Yu: "Oh, I thought what was going on, so excited. ”
Shi Jing: "You're going too far!"
Shi Yu: "What?"
Shi Jing: "If he makes a mistake, you will punish him! If he makes a meritorious service, you will also punish him!"
Shi Jing: "What exactly do you want to do?!"
Shi Yu said indifferently: "Are you fighting for him?"
Shi Jing: "Big brother, he is our younger brother after all!"
Shi Jing: "How can you bear it with him like this?"
Shi Yu: "......"
Shi Jing: "Is this kind of humiliation something that people can do?!"
Shi Yu suddenly became angry: "What can't be done? He is in pain, he is pitiful." But who has come to sympathize with my pain!"
Shi Yu: "All this he suffered is to blame! If he wants to blame his mother." ”
Shi Jing: "However, it is a grudge between elders, how can you apply hatred to innocent offspring!"
Shi Yu: "Innocent?"
Shi Yu: "Yes, he is innocent! But what about me? Am I not innocent? Since I was 12 years old, I have been living in pain! I have been living in hatred! Until now, more than 20 years!"
Shi Yu: "My mother, because of his mother, committed suicide in front of me!!"
Shi Yu: "Who will compensate for my pain!!"
Shi Jing looked at the furious Shi Yu blankly, and for a while, his heart ached violently.
His heart was so sad.
Mother!
That's too, my own mother!
When my mother left, I was only a few years old,
I don't have any impression of what my mother looks like.
I don't know how many times I have depicted my mother's face in my heart, how many times I have fantasized about it, and how many times I have fantasized about my mother's voice......
Shi Jing was speechless.
He stood for a moment, then turned uncomfortably and walked out of the tent.
............
The night was late, and the autumn breeze was cool, blowing on the people lying on the playground.
Shi Yue was lying in the playground, semi-unconscious.
He was covered with Shi Jing's cloak.
Without the order of the general, no one dared to carry him down.
A man led a horse and walked up to him.
The man crouched down, picked him up, and whispered his name.
Shi Yue slowly opened his eyes and saw that it was his second brother Shi Jing.
Shi Jing helped him put on his clothes and helped him to ride his horse.
Shi Jing led the horse out of the barracks, he put a bag of money in Shi Yue's clothes, and put the purple jade sword in the hand of its owner.
He looked at Shi Yue's haggard, scarred face and sighed deeply.
Shi Jing: "Let's go! If you go far, don't come back!"
Shi Yue looked at him with a blank gaze.
Shi Jing couldn't bear to look him in the eyes, and slapped the horse's body with his hand, and the horse walked forward "deservedly".
The night was deep, and gradually, they disappeared into the darkness......
The soldiers at the entrance of the barracks stood with iron guns in their hands, their eyes solemn and motionless, like statues of honorable people.
