Poison Doctor Roaming the Martial World

After a month of instruction in the military camp, Yang Jianwu imparted a general overview of the essence of C Country's military strategy. How to apply it in practice depended on the individual commanders' understanding. Learning and practice must be combined; proper application is true learning, otherwise it remains mere theoretical discussion. Giving a man a fish is not as good as teaching him how to fish; how many fish you want to catch depends on your fishing skills.

Puyang Xuan and Jing Nan were forbidden from entering the military camp, so Puyang Xuan returned to Shamen for the past month, while Jing Nan stayed at the General's Mansion, occasionally coming to the outside of the military camp to take a look at Qingdai from afar.

The entire Dongli region had entered the height of summer. Luo Li had also returned to Anshun to avenge his father. Upon hearing that Yang Jianwu was in the military camp, he sent his mother back to the general's mansion and rode there overnight. All he wanted to do now was see his young lady.

When Luo Li rushed back to Xipan and met Yang Zigui at the agreed-upon location, he received a pile of so-called evidence from Yang Zigui. At first, he didn't understand what it was, but when he opened it, he realized that it was evidence that his young mistress had been collecting over the years to prove that his uncle and Aunt Xiao had seized his father's property, oppressed the people, hired someone to kill, and forcibly seized houses and farmland... Tears welled up in his eyes instantly. He never expected that the young mistress he had grown up with, who had always bickered with him, had collected so much evidence over the years...

Seeing Luo Li crying like this, Yang Zigui could understand. After so many years of hatred, she had finally gotten her revenge, which was a relief. "A real man should wipe his tears after crying. Miss is very perceptive. She has been secretly investigating all these years, and now that there are results, it is a happy event."

Luo Li wiped the corners of his eyes and thanked Yang Zigui. Yang Zigui arranged for him to stay in an inn and told him to rest for a while. Because he had other tasks to complete, he left first.

Two days later, Gui Er even brought Luo Li's birth mother, Jiang Shi, along with him.

Luo Li, along with his mother, took the evidence to the local government office. Because it involved a deceased general, the case was reported up the chain of command. It is unknown who pushed the matter, but it eventually reached the ears of the Emperor of Xipan. General Luo was highly regarded by the emperor during his lifetime. With all the evidence laid out before him, the Emperor of Xipan was furious and immediately ordered the Dali Temple to try the case of the deceased General Luo.

Soon, the mother and son witnessed their uncle's family being raided. Aunt Xiao, for her infidelity, was first paraded through the streets on a wooden donkey, and then nearly drowned in a pig cage. The Emperor of Xipan returned all the confiscated property to Luo Li. Luo Li and his mother had already discussed this beforehand. Since Yang Jianwu had been kind to them, they both wanted to stay by Yang Jianwu's side. They claimed that they had been living together outside for many years, running a small business and settling down elsewhere, and donated all their property. This act earned the Emperor of Xipan's praise.

Phantom's speed is top-notch even among horses, but Luo Li still felt it was too slow. "Giddy up~ Go faster, Phantom! Don't you miss your master?"

The phantom galloped along angrily, snorting loudly in protest.

Finally, the military camp came into view, closer and closer...

Upon seeing someone riding towards them, the soldiers guarding the camp immediately went on alert, shouting, "Who's there? This is a restricted military area! Get out of here immediately!"

"Miss Yang Jianwu's bodyguard, Luo Li."

The guards recognized Luo Li and quickly opened the gate. Riding horses was strictly forbidden in the military camp. Luo Li dismounted at the camp gate, ignoring Huan Ying, and searched for Yang Jianwu on his own. Huan Ying felt abandoned and refused to be led by the guards. He followed Luo Li with small steps to find Yang Jianwu. He hadn't seen his master for a long time and missed her a little.

Yang Jianwu was chatting with everyone in the camp about battle examples when he heard the sound of horses' hooves and knew that Phantom had returned. "It's Phantom!" he exclaimed, abandoning the others and running outside.

Seeing his daughter run off without a word, Yang Boshan was afraid of offending Prince Ning, so he quickly apologized, "Your Highness, please don't be offended. My daughter has not been properly disciplined since she was a child, and she is lacking in manners. I will definitely find a nanny to teach her properly later."

Mo Ye was very curious about who the phantom was. "General Yang, you flatter me. Miss Yang is naturally straightforward and genuine. There's no need to restrain her. She's fine as she is. I wonder who has come that makes her so happy?"

Seeing that Prince Ning was not angry, Yang Boshan was relieved. "Phantom is my daughter's mount. She lent it to someone else a few days ago, and it should be back now. I heard that Prince Ning has some knowledge of horses. Why don't we go and see Phantom together? This horse was originally a wild horse from the grasslands. My daughter tamed it at the border of Xipan and Dongli. It runs much faster than the horses in Dongli."

Yang Boshan's move was exactly what Mo Ye wanted, and Mo Ye went along with it, saying, "Then let's go take a look together, General Yang, please."

"Your Highness, please."

Phantom followed Yang Jianwu's scent to the battalion commander. Yang Jianwu ran out and saw a familiar figure. "Phantom, I'm here."

Yang Jianwu and Huanying were heading towards each other, which should have been a beautiful scene of them embracing, but Luo Li intercepted them halfway, jumping out from the side, grabbing Yang Jianwu's waist and spinning her around.

Yang Jianwu was a little dizzy from being spun around, and gestured for Luo Li to put her down. Luo Li refused to let go, and hugged Yang Jianwu in his arms like a family member, saying, "Thank you, Miss! Thank you for everything you've done for me all these years. I, Luo Li, will never forget you!"

When Mo Ye and Yang Boshan came out, they saw Yang Jianwu being held in Luo Li's arms. Mo Ye was filled with jealousy. One Puyang Xuan was gone, and now Luo Li had come. There were too many flies around Xiao Wu'er...

Seeing that Prince Ning's expression was not good, Yang Boshan coughed twice, "Ahem, daughter, didn't you call for Phantom?"

The phantom kicked its front hooves a few times behind it and snorted several times; it was too much of a bullying for the horse...

When Yang Jianwu saw the phantom throwing a tantrum, she gently pushed Luo Li away. Luo Li felt an emptiness in his arms, and his heart seemed to empty as well.

Yang Jianwu walked to Huanying's side and gently patted Huanying's head, comforting her with a smile: "Don't be angry, little Huanying. It's not that I don't want to hug you, it's just that you've been traveling and are too dirty. Go take a shower first and then come find me, okay?"

Phantom lowered its head in dissatisfaction, baring its teeth at Luo Li angrily, as if complaining that he hadn't taken a shower either.

Mo Ye admired Yang Jianwu's ability to train animals. First Little Gold, then Phantom, and thinking of the gyrfalcon in the City Lord's Mansion, it seemed she could befriend all animals. Seeing Luo Li beside her, he suppressed his jealousy, walked to Yang Jianwu's side, and said gently, "Little Wu'er, aren't you going to introduce her?"

The word "Xiao Wu'er" startled everyone. Yang Boshan stared wide-eyed in disbelief. What did Prince Ning shout? It sounded like he called "Xiao Wu'er." Was he hallucinating?!

Luo Li had met Mo Ye once, and at that time Yang Jianwu praised him, saying, "Young Master, you should only see paintings; I alone know the essence of this." She never imagined that after just over a month, their relationship would have grown so much closer!

Yang Jianwu froze. Had Prince Ning forgotten to take his medicine again? He usually called her "Little Wu'er" without any problem, but calling her that in front of so many people today was far too gentle... This guy must be doing it on purpose!
