After understanding Qi Zhenguo's good intentions, Lin Yi no longer complained.
Actually, Qi Zhenguo did not have any good intentions.
He was just a boor. The main reason was that he had received an order that Lin Yi had to register for the Yellow Dragon Meet this time.
In reality, this was an opportunity given to him by Emperor Qin.
"Brothers, I'll make a move first."
"Take care, Big Brother!"
"Big brother, don't leave our brothers behind. If there really comes a day where you can command an army, our brothers will still follow you!”
Lin Yi waved his hand on his horse.
"Don't worry, you will always be my soldiers!”
Lin Yi whipped his horse out of the camp and headed straight for Qi Zhenguo's main tent.
"Brother Lin Yi, you've finally arrived.”
The deputy general came over to take a look at the tea. Lin Yi sat down, and Qi Zhenguo immediately took out a letter.
"The Yellow Dragon Meeting will last for three days. Three days later, His Majesty will summon us to the capital.”
"Thank you for informing me, General Qi."
"Hey, brother!"
"I'm just relying on my courage to call you 'Younger Brother'. Do you know the intention behind His Majesty's arrangement?”
"Brother, please speak."
"You will only be in the camp for three months. The Yan Han Imperial Court is not a place where only one person can rule. If the Martial Emperor issues an order in the Imperial Court, even if the ministers know that it is wrong, they will not dare to disobey. However, our Emperor is determined to become stronger and wants to build Yan Han into a powerful country in one fell swoop. He values etiquette and law. Those censors even dare to point at his nose and scold him when they are crazy.”
At this point, Lin Yi was smart and already understood.
"Yan Han has to act according to the law, so you have to do your best at the Yellow Dragon Meeting. I know that with your military skills, you will definitely enter the top three. When that time comes, His Majesty will reward you and find a reason.”
It was not that Qi Zhenguo had underestimated Lin Yi.
Peerless experts often appeared among the people.
Twelve years ago, a swordsman from Yan Han suddenly appeared at the Yellow Dragon Meeting.
It was because one of the participants had killed his mother by mistake.
This general was extremely skilled and had never lost a battle against the generals of the Dai Kingdom and the Wu Dynasty.
However, when he fought with this swordsman, his head was cut off in one move!
There were often crouching tigers and hidden dragons among the people, and only Qi Zhenguo had this concern.
Lin Yi, on the other hand, was quite interested in this swordsman.
"Brother, what is the name of this swordsman?”
Qi Zhenguo sighed and said,
"No one knows his original name. After he took revenge, he changed his name to Northern Sparrow.”
Northern Sparrow.
Lin Yi naturally understood.
Sparrows are birds.
When the weather was cold, birds would fly to the warm areas in the south. Therefore, there was a saying that migrating birds flew south. It was referring to the southern sparrow.
Northern Sparrows meant that migrating birds were unwilling to go to warm places.
Thinking back to Northern Sparrow, who had killed the first general in the army to avenge his mother, he naturally had the determination to die and never thought of surviving.
From his name, Lin Yi already knew that this person was now ice-cold and had nothing to miss about the entire world.
This person was probably already dead. Even if he was not dead, he would definitely be living like a walking corpse.
Lin Yi asked about Northern Sparrow's whereabouts, and it was just as he had guessed.
Qi Zhenguo said,
"Northern Sparrow killed a general without permission. According to the law, he should be executed. However, his mother was killed by mistake and died innocently. His Majesty was moved by compassion and gave him a chance to atone for his sins.”
"Ask him to replace the vanguard? Atonement?"
"Yes, that's what His Majesty meant. However, Northern Sparrow said that her heart and soul were dead, leaving behind a soulless shell in this world. She was unwilling to join the army.”
"What happened after that?"
"Someone found out that the general killed Northern Sparrow's mother by mistake and then hid the truth. His Majesty thought that he was pardonable and imprisoned him for seven years before releasing him.”
"Where is this person now?"
"The capital."
Lin Yi thought to himself,'This Northern Sparrow really has the martial arts skills to take the head of a general with a sword. Moreover, he's a disheartened person. It's definitely the best choice for him to take charge of the special forces that I'll build in the future.'
"I would like to meet this Northern Sparrow."
"Hey, little brother, I won't hide it from you. There have been too many people who have wanted to subdue Northern Sparrow over the years. Even His Majesty has personally gone there once.”
Lin Yi was quite surprised.
"The emperor personally went to see a criminal?”
"That's right, even His Majesty's face can't move him. Everyone wants to get this person, and if they can get this person, it will be like adding wings to a tiger. But, brother, don't be delusional, this is almost impossible!”
After packing their bags, Qi Zhenguo and Lin Yi brought along fifty guards and hurried to An Province.
If they traveled day and night, they should be able to arrive in three days.
Once he arrived in An Zhou, he would first take the theory examination, then the martial arts competition.
Lin Yi knew that he had to be as busy as a dog. He ate and drank on the way to replenish his strength first.
Three days later, An State City was within reach.
On Ning Jin 'er's side, she missed her husband very much. Every time she cleaned the house, she looked forward to meeting Lin Yi as soon as possible.
On the day of the wedding, they had only spent less than two hours together before Lin Yi was captured and brought into the camp.
She was a woman getting married. What was wrong with not seeing her husband?
"Miss, Miss, there's news about Young Master!”
Ning Jin 'er said in surprise,"
"Are you coming back?"
The butler reported,
"Young Master is only in the An Province 120 li away. He will be participating in the Yellow Dragon Meeting.”
"So we're going to the An Prefecture?"
"Miss, all the scholars and hermits in An Province have gathered. There are countless people drinking and causing trouble every day. You are like a celestial being who has descended to the mortal world. How would you dare to go to An Province with such a beautiful appearance?”
Was it wrong to be good-looking?
Ning Jin 'er felt wronged, but there was nothing she could do.
Huan 'er added,
"Young Miss, don't be anxious. Since Young Master said that he will return, he will definitely return to the Lin residence in glory and reunite with you. At that time, won't it be exactly what Young Miss wants?”
Ning Jin 'er asked,"
"How do you know that Young Master will definitely come back in glory?”
"Young Master, how many military achievements did you make this time?”
"Everyone says that he will return to his hometown in glory. Young Master will definitely bring honor to our Lin family. When he comes back, he will definitely ride a tall horse and wear red and green clothes. There will be people from the government following behind him and they will constantly nod and bow to him. I see that all high-ranking officials come home like this.”
"Alright, let's wait a few more days."
Ning Jin 'er had just entered the house when someone came outside.
"Miss, Master and Furen asked us to go. They said that our Chizhou Mayor has arrived, and even the provincial governor and the garrison have come to the Lin family.”
The prefect was the highest ranking officer in Chizhou. Naturally, the reason he came to the Lin family was because Lin Yi had been summoned to the capital. The news had spread.
Usually, why would the prefect come to a commoner's house?
Today, he was treated with great courtesy, sending silver, silk, and rice as congratulatory gifts.
"Lin Yi has contributed greatly to Yan Han. This is a small token of appreciation from the state capital to the Lin family. I hope you can accept it.”
……
Ning Jin 'er's family was entertaining guests. At this moment, Lin Yi was rushing to the Yellow Dragon Meeting and had already entered the examination hall.
"That person with the white helmet, white armor, and silver spear is Lin Yi?”
"It's not like what Teacher said, three heads and six arms, and the Heavenly Eye between the eyebrows?”
"How would a mortal like you know? Lord Lin only opens his Heavenly Eye on the battlefield and only reveals his three heads and six arms when fighting the enemy.”
"That's true. It's said that when Lord Lin really fights, he will use the Heavenly Transformation Technique to expand his body to more than ten feet, nearly four meters. During the combat examination these few days, we must squeeze to the front to watch.”
"That's right. Lord Lin's spell of turning beans into soldiers is probably not going to be seen. If we can see his Heavenly Phenomenon, it will be an eye-opener for us commoners!”
……
In this era, there was no science. Almost everyone believed in ghosts and gods. Once the storyteller boasted, people would really believe it.
And so many people believed it!
When Lin Yi heard the commoners describe how he could swallow a warhorse with his bloody mouth, he almost vomited blood from anger...
This was too f * cking ridiculous!
As the theory examination and combat examination were held at the same time, Lin Yi could only rush to both sides.
"Brother Lin, don't be anxious. We'll wait for you at the posthouse. After the Yellow Dragon Meet ends, we'll enter the capital together.”
"Brother, if you have something to do, you can leave first. Don't worry about me. Also, do we have to stay in the posthouse?”
The posthouse was a place where the imperial court specially gave officials a rest. There were soldiers guarding the surroundings.
Lin Yi didn't want to live in a posthouse, and he didn't want Qi Zhenguo, his mother-in-law, to live next door.
If Qi Zhenguo dragged him to drink in the middle of the night after the exams, his plan to go back and see Jin 'er would fail!
However, you had no choice but to do so. The imperial court had stipulated that people like Lin Yi had to stay in the posthouse!
What should he do then?
Lin Yi thought of an idea. He would do it after the examination. After settling Qi Zhenguo, he would fly back to Chizhou to see Jin 'er!
The opportunity had come!
Lin Yi was extremely excited. Although it was not his first time entering the bridal chamber, he still could not suppress his excitement!
Jin 'er's wife, you must stay at home tonight and wait for your husband to come back…
