I don't know if it was because he was in a happy mood, or because there was another person beside his pillow, You Yan slept very soundly that night, and he didn't wake up until he was exposed to the sun.The room was quiet, no different from the previous night before going to bed, as if the person who hugged him and slept with him at night was just a dream of his, and after waking up from the dream, there was no trace left behind.

You Yan sat by the bed for a while, as if slowly regaining his consciousness, he called out, "Ruiyun, what time is it?"

Rui Yun hurried in: "My lord, you're awake, it's Si time."

You Yan rubbed his eyes: "It seems that I really drank a lot yesterday, and I slept for so long this time."

"It's not just that you drank too much," Rui Yun said dissatisfied, "Luckily, the Holy Master came late last night, if I saw you jumping into the lotus pond in the evening and soaking wet to watch the sunset, I would definitely lose my temper.

You Yan looked at him with raised eyebrows: "In your eyes, our Majesty is so angry?" Speaking of which, he touched his chin and suddenly laughed, "But the temper has indeed been a little bit lately."

After finishing speaking, he stretched himself: "Let them bring in water, and I'll wash my face."

"Okay." Ruiyun responded, and suddenly raised his eyes to look at him: "My lord, are you going out today?"

"Yes, tell the stable to prepare a horse for me. I'm going to the camp outside the city." You Yan casually took the robe beside the bed and put it on casually. When he raised his eyes and saw Ruiyun's expression, he couldn't help but wonder , "Did you arrange something else for me?"

"Are you really not planning to go into the palace to see His Majesty?" Rui Yun stepped forward to help You Yan fasten his clothes, "Your Majesty came over at night yesterday and watched you all night without closing his eyes, and returned to the palace before dawn In the early morning, I was dozing outside when he got up, and I almost didn't notice, Your Majesty was careful not to wake you up." Speaking of this, he couldn't help being a little surprised, "Didn't you go into the palace with a new robe yesterday? Well, why did you come back so drunk, how could His Majesty let you drink?"

While speaking, Ruiyun stopped what he was doing, and suddenly realized: "My lord, did you quarrel with the Holy One?"

You Yan pulled his belt out of Ruiyun's hand, raised his hand and tapped him on the forehead: "Go and prepare the horse."

Rui Yun pouted: "Oh." He took a few steps outside, and couldn't help but look back at You Yan, "You really don't plan to enter the palace?"

You Yan lowered his eyes, lowered his head and fastened his belt, then slowly raised his head: "You want to enter the palace so much, otherwise I will send you in to be a companion with Director Gao?"

Rui Yun hurriedly shook her head and hurried out the door.

Half an hour later, You Yan left You Mansion after having breakfasted and freshened up, rode out of the imperial city alone, and went straight to the camp outside the city.

After You Yan handed in the military talisman, countless people in the court were watching the movement outside the city. For several days, everything remained the same, as if all the news had been isolated in the capital, and the military camp had not been disturbed at all.This makes those who do not know what the purpose of waiting to see the show will inevitably be a little disappointed.

And You Yan reappeared in the camp outside the city today, and fell into the eyes of interested people. I don't know what kind of rumors it will turn into, but obviously, You Yan didn't bother to care about it.

This period of time has been staying in the mansion, it is rare to go out, both You Yan and his horse are very happy, they rode the horse leisurely for half a circle outside the city, before You Yan turned his horse's head and headed for the camp.

Since the founding of the Southern Wei Dynasty, twelve guards were set up to protect the safety of the capital, and the twelve guards were under the jurisdiction of the emperor.In the past two years, there was an independent battalion outside the capital, with tens of thousands of soldiers, although they were in the capital, they belonged to foreign troops. The generals in charge of defending the army were all cronies who followed You Yan in the battle.

Back then You Yan led an army of [-] troops to quell the rebellion in the Northwest, and only a few thousand people survived to return to the capital with him. Now they have become the elite among the tens of thousands of garrisons. He maintained a high degree of loyalty, which became the evidence for the courtiers to criticize You Yangong and Gaizhu with bad intentions.

But whether it was You Yan or his soldiers, they didn't care at all.

They fought to defend the Southern Wei Dynasty. They had seen the most ferocious enemy army. They watched their comrades fall one by one by their side. They walked on the edge of life and death.

Because morality is in the heart.

You Yan's horse was noticed by the campers several miles outside the camp, so when he dismounted in front of the camp gate, soldiers came up to meet him immediately and took the reins from him: "General, you are finally here!" !"

You Yan responded with a smile, and stroked his horse back: "Where's Tao Jiang?"

"General Tao is at the training ground, probably he doesn't know you're here yet." The soldier said, "Wait a minute, and the subordinates go down and tell him?"

"No, I'll go to the training ground to have a look." After speaking, You Yan pointed to his horse, "Remember to feed the horse for me." After finishing speaking, he went straight to the training ground with ease without anyone leading him.

The military training ground seems to be very lively today. From a distance, I saw a large group of people huddling together and I don’t know what they were arguing about. When I got closer, I found two shirtless strong men fighting together in the open space in the center of the crowd. The onlookers all focused their attention on these two men, applauding them from time to time.

You Yan folded his arms in front of his chest, wearing a loose gown that was out of place with the surroundings, but everyone seemed to be fascinated and didn't even notice who appeared beside him.You Yan was not in a hurry, with a smile on his mouth, he followed the people around him and looked towards the center of the field, until one of them threw the other to the ground, completely locked up and unable to resist, You Yan clapped his hands amidst the commotion: "General Tao is very capable."

The clear voice made the huge training ground suddenly quiet, and the next moment everyone around clasped their fists together and saluted: "See General."

You Yan laughed: "I've only been away for a few days, and we have gained so much etiquette in this camp?" He waved his hand, "Why should I go, I'm here to find Tao Jiang."

Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and finally dispersed slowly, leaving only two people still entangled on the ground.You Yan approached slowly, and touched the top one with the toe of his shoe: "Why, General Tao can't get up now? Or wait for me to help you?"

Only then did Tao Jiang slowly let go of his hands and feet, fell on his back to the ground, took a few deep breaths, and then said to the poor wretch who had fought with him just now: "You go too, don't delay my follow-up The general speaks."

You Yan looked down at him condescendingly: "Is that how you plan to talk to me?"

Tao Jiang lay on the ground for a while before sitting up: "General, you pity me for working so hard all day and condescend to sit down?"

You Yan glared at him, then picked up the dusty clothes at his feet and threw them on Tao Jiang, then laughed, opened the hem of the clothes and sat down opposite Tao Jiang, stretched out his legs and kicked Tao Jiang: " After all, you are also a general, pulling other soldiers to wrestle, is this how you train troops?"

"It's summer, they are all listless looking for something to do." Tao Jiang wiped off the sweat from his forehead, and put on his robe, "General, you are here at last. If you don't come, I might not be able to control my subordinates." Those boys, for some reason there have been rumors in the army these days, saying that the emperor is afraid of us, that’s why he took your soldier talisman, this group of people have emotions in their hearts.”

You Yan raised his eyes to look at him: "You can't handle such a trivial matter, so what's the use of you? If I don't come in the future, are you planning to lead an army into the imperial city?"

Tao Jiang quickly waved his hand: "No, no, I'm just talking casually. I know what's going on between you and our Majesty. As for the people below, I can take care of them." He was talking , moved closer to You Yan, "Didn't I miss you, General? It's not good for us to go to the capital all the time in our current status, so we can only hope that the General can still share some thoughts in the gentle township." Think, come and see us once in a while."

You Yan stretched out his hand and punched Tao Jiang, then laughed.I don't know how many people in this big camp are his personal soldiers, but Tao Jiang is the most special one among them.Tao Jiang was originally a bodyguard of the Han Palace, when You Yan led the army to the northwest, Lin Ce forced Tao Jiang to follow him from among his few cronies.

On the battlefield, swords have no eyes, and You Yan's martial arts are ordinary. Swords, guns, swords and halberds have passed by, and he has brushed against death countless times. He brought You Yan out of the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood again and again.

After returning to the capital, Tao Jiang was instinctively promoted to rank, but Tao Jiang chose to stay in the army, and gradually became the most trusted person around You Yan.

"Hey, General, did you really return the soldier talisman to Your Majesty?" Tao Jiang sat for a while, then turned his head to look at You Yan, "Your Majesty, did he really accept it?"

"When will the rumors in the capital be hidden from the army? Naturally, the soldier talisman will be handed over. How could he not accept it under the eyes of everyone in the early court." You Yan breathed a long sigh of relief, "From now on, my superior The general is just a vain job, and all the soldiers in this battalion will be handed over to you, if there is anything wrong..."

"You can leave my little life to you," Tao Jiang restrained the smile on his face, and said seriously, "I know why you handed in the military talisman, and all of this is actually within my expectation. You didn't like it in the first place. Marching and fighting, if you can, you will immediately return the soldier talisman to Your Majesty when you come back from the northwest.

But at that time, His Majesty had just succeeded to the throne, and the generals stationed at the border seemed to be safe, but in fact they had their own ghosts.It took you three years to clean them up, take back the military power into your own hands, let alone keep all of us in the capital despite the criticism from the court, because from the very beginning we were the one you created for Your Majesty Sharp arrow, now that the sharp arrow has been made, you naturally want to give it to His Majesty. "

You Yan looked up at the bright sunshine above his head, and said with a smile: "Actually, it's not as exaggerated as you said. At first, I just wanted to clean up the mess for him and let his throne sit more safely. But later I found that even if the military power is taken back, They can't take back people's hearts in their hands. The border is far away from the capital, and they don't return all year round. It's hard to distinguish people's hearts. Who knows if they will have any restless thoughts after a long time. So only he has a strong enough army in his hand. Only then can those people be afraid, fortunately, there are you."
