Chapter 234 The Sick and Vicious Soldier and His Iron-Blooded and Cold-Faced General 13
After a while, Ji Bai and his group arrived at the outskirts of the capital.
After the people on the city gate saw who he was, they looked surprised and excited: "The general is back!!"
The people in the city, who had already heard some news, told each other and ran out quickly to see the general.
That was Jiang Yunci, the undefeated general in all battles! He was the youngest and most promising general in Tianqi State!
The gates open——
A group of people rode in slowly from outside the city. When the people saw the people in front clearly, they were slightly stunned.
The young general returned on horseback, wearing a white robe and silver armor, his indifferent eyes and brows concealed the sound of weapons. He rode high on his horse, the afterglow of the setting sun reflected on his face, showing a cold and aloof look.
After coming to their senses, the people cheered enthusiastically, cheering for the general and excited about the victory.
After the general walked away, a man in the middle caught their attention again.
A month ago, someone said that when the last city in Liaoxin area was recovered, a hero who was more powerful than the general appeared.
The general won two major military merits in the first battle, while the newly born hero won three major military merits!
In the vast crowd, their eyes were inexplicably locked on the handsome man who exuded a cold and murderous aura. A voice rang out in their minds at the same time, telling them that this man was the hero who had won the three great military merits!
The crowd cheered continuously. An elegant man among the crowd waved the fan in his hand and frowned for a moment.
After the back of the person in the middle of the team disappeared from view, he turned around and left, disappearing into the crowd.
.........
As soon as Ji Bai stepped into the general's mansion, he was hugged by someone: "Third brother! You are finally back safely!"
The person who came was the original owner’s elder brother—Jiang Yunye.
The general had three sons and two daughters, and the original owner was the youngest.
After Ji Bai received the message from 818, he waited for Jiang Yunye to let him go before calling out to him, "Brother."
Jiang Yunye wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "I am still as indifferent as ever."
Ji Bai opened his mouth slightly and was about to speak when a female voice came over.
"Who told you to throw all the homework your grandmother gave you to Xiao Ci when you were a kid? If not you, who else should I be indifferent to?"
818: [The woman who spoke is Jiang Yunjun, the second oldest child in the general's mansion, but she has always been called Big Sister since she was a child. Now everyone calls her Big Sister. ]
Ji Bai tilted her head to look at the person. She looked 50% like the man in front of her, but her facial features were softer.
818: [She, Jiang Yunye and the original owner have the same mother. ]
Jiang Yunjun walked in front of Ji Bai. Although he was mocking Jiang Yunye, the joy in his tone could not be concealed: "Xiao Ci, you are back earlier than expected."
Ji Bai nodded slightly: "Big sister."
Jiang Yunjun walked up to him and took him to the mansion: "After not seeing you for a year, Xiaoci is still estranged from his sister."
"Father is in the palace discussing something with His Majesty. He should be on his way back now. When he went to the palace during the day, he told us that when you come back, you can go directly to dinner and don't need to wait for him."
Ji Bai followed behind her and listened to her talk about the interesting things that happened in her family during the year.
"You don't know, half a year ago, when my father and elder brother heard that you were missing in the Xinliao area, they were so scared that they peed their pants on the spot!"
Half a year ago, the original owner and a group of soldiers dressed up as civilians, but were spotted by bandits and almost treated as bandits' wives.
Jiang Yunye was displeased: "You are just talking nonsense."
Jiang Yunjun looked at him, raised his head slightly, and pointed his nose at him: "Isn't it?"
Jiang Yunye was silent for a moment.
After talking for a long time, they walked into the dining room.
Sitting in the middle of the table was an elderly lady with a serious expression, exuding the aura of a person in control.
When she saw Ji Bai and his group, she raised her hand, grabbed the teacup in front of her, and slammed it heavily on the dining table: "According to the time you entered the city, you should have returned to the mansion half an hour ago. You let all the elders sit here waiting for you. If His Majesty needs to look for you, won't he have to wait for you for another hour?!"
Jiang Yunye looked unhappy. He opened his mouth to speak, but Jiang Yunjun spoke first: "Xiao Ci just returned to the capital, and he still has a lot of things to deal with. He went back to the military camp first, and then rushed back immediately..."
The solemnity on the old lady's face faded a little: "Don't make the same mistake again in the future. You are His Majesty's sharp sword. His Majesty needs you at any time. Without His Majesty, our General's Mansion would not exist. You must swear to follow His Majesty until death!"
818 sensed something was wrong, and hesitantly looked at the boss who was a little smarter than him, and asked: [Boss, is this person trying to PUA everyone here? ]
Ji Bai: [Yes.]
818 frowned: [No wonder everyone in the general's mansion is so blindly loyal. There are people like this who keep telling you how great the emperor is and that everything they have is thanks to the emperor. They have been hearing this since they were young. Only gods can resist such blind loyalty.]
After the old lady finished speaking, she looked at the thoughtful expressions of the crowd and was about to ask them to sit down and eat, but she saw Ji Bai's still cold face. She frowned and pointed at him, "Jiang Yunci, are you listening to what I'm saying to you? Are you trying to be disrespectful to the emperor?"
Jiang Yunjun subconsciously raised his hand to hold Ji Bai's hand, and slightly turned his body to defend the younger brother behind him.
"Jiang Yunjun, are you going to stop me from teaching my descendants? How did your father teach you?"
Jiang Yunjun closed his slightly open mouth and lowered his head, but did not walk away from Ji Bai.
Jiang Yunye stood in front of her and bowed to the old lady: "Grandma, you have been teaching us since we were young. I think you also know Xiaoci's temperament. He has always been indifferent and expressionless. But he is also the best one. I think he doesn't speak or express himself because he is keeping everything that Grandma said in his heart."
The old lady's expression brightened when she heard this. After thinking about Jiang Yunye's words, she nodded slightly, "That's right."
Ji Bai: "Grandmother, you just said that we should swear to follow His Majesty until death. What about Grandmother? Grandmother, do you not intend to swear to follow His Majesty until death? Are you planning to be the first to escape when your life is in danger?"
The old lady, whose expression had improved, suddenly fell again: "I am just an old man, what else does Your Majesty need me to do?"
Ji Bai looked at her calmly without saying anything.
818, who was flying beside him, jumped out: "Of course I need your help! I want you to educate the children of the general's mansion so that they can be controlled by the emperor's thoughts! What? My boss just asked a question casually, and you feel guilty? You feel guilty. You are the one who works for the emperor, so why are you so anxious to jump out and say that the emperor doesn't need you?"
[Your little tricks are nothing in my boss's eyes!!]
818 turned around and patted his raised butt with his paw: [Come on, come on, if you are not happy with my boss, you can punish him with family rules! The boss still has the tiger talisman in his hand, I want to see who is more important, you or the emperor's third son. ]
Ji Bai: .......
