Chapter 30
People's ambitions can be infinite, but they must have a strong body to match them, otherwise, everything will be in vain.
Now Wang Yu is facing such a dilemma. She wants to follow Li Yuan to fight against the Turks, but her body does not allow it.
When she was approaching Taiyuan, her hip and thigh injuries worsened. She could no longer ride a horse and had to take a carriage back to Taiyuan.
Li Yuan arranged a carriage for her and left several soldiers to escort her back to Taiyuan. Li Shimin also found a maid for her.
Originally, Qin Shubao said that he wanted to stay and take care of her, but Wang Yu dissuaded him. At this time, it was the time for Qin Shubao to show his talents in fighting against the Turks. How could he stay and take care of her? What a waste of talent.
"well."
Wang Yu lay down in the carriage and sighed for the ninety-ninth time. After returning to Taiyuan, she would obediently listen to Sister Changsun's words.
When she needs medicine, she drinks medicine, and when she needs supplements, she takes supplements. It doesn’t matter whether it’s birds, beasts, centipedes or scorpions. As long as it can make this body strong, she will treat it as sweet milk tea as soon as she closes her eyes.
Thinking of those dark medicines, Wang Yu's face wrinkled into a flower roll. She still needs to exercise more. By the way, from now on, she will get up at midnight and practice with Li Shimin. Then she will find Duan Zhixuan and the others, and each of them will learn one move from him, which is enough for her.
Used.
Having made up her mind, Wang Yu felt much more relaxed and looked at the little girl Li Shimin bought for her.
The little girl is not young, she is already sixteen years old, her skin is slightly yellow, her face is round, her eyes are big, and her nose is a bit flat, which makes her nose look slightly bigger. But her figure is very standard, neither fat nor thin, and overall she looks very pleasing to the eye.
"Chunhua, when I return to Taiyuan, I will send someone to bring you back."
Chunhua was shocked, tears streaming down her face: "My dear, please don't drive me away. I will definitely keep the secret and won't reveal that you are a daughter."
"..."
Wang Yu raised his hand to rest his forehead, "Where is this? Is it because she didn't express it clearly enough?"
"I don't mean to drive you away. What I mean is that Taiyuan is not your hometown after all, and you will definitely be uncomfortable with it. So after I return to Taiyuan, I will send someone to take you back to your hometown."
After listening to her words, Chunhua's tears became more intense: "My maid... My family members are all dead... There are no relatives in my hometown..."
So pitiful.
"well."
Wang Yu sighed again. In the chaotic times of the late Sui Dynasty, when wars broke out everywhere, it was common for people to be displaced. Families were killed and orphaned everywhere. Isn't she the original owner of this body?
"Don't cry. I didn't drive you away. When you get to Taiyuan, you can stay in Taiyuan if you want. I will give you a sum of money and let you make a small living."
Chunhua wiped away her tears when she heard that she was not going to drive her away, "No, I don't know how to run a business. If you give me money, I will lose money. I want to stay by your side and serve you, but I can do everything."
I can do laundry, cooking, cleaning, anything.
"My servant doesn't need any wages, as long as I have food to eat and a place to sleep."
"Don't worry, I will stay by your side from now on. I will listen more, do more, talk less, and look less. I will never cause you any trouble."
Seeing her eager to show her loyalty and recommend him, Wang Yu felt a little sad. She just wanted to seek shelter.
"Okay, I promise you, please stop kneeling."
"Thank you, little lady."
"Don't call me little lady from now on, just call me Wang Yu."
"...Um...I will call you my young master from now on."
"It's up to you, but don't call yourself a maid in the future, it sounds uncomfortable."
...
Li Mi walked up and down outside the coach's tent, rubbing his hands constantly, looking very anxious.
After a while, when he saw Jia Xiong coming out of the tent, he hurriedly greeted him: "How is it? Is Mr. Zhai willing to see me?"
Jia Xiong shook his head and walked away.
Li Mi was greatly disappointed. He stayed there for a while and then hurriedly chased Jia Xiong.
After entering Jia Xiong's tent, Li Mi sat down opposite Jia Xiong, his tone full of pleading: "Brother, you are the only one who can help me this time, you must help me."
Jia Xiong poured a bowl of hot tea, pushed it in front of Li Mi, and sighed: "It's not that I don't want to help you, brother, but the leader is too disappointed in you this time.
"You vowed to take Xingyang back then, and yes, you did, but within a few days it was taken away by others, and we were driven out like lost dogs.
“Not only did we lose face, we also lost a lot of troops.
"If I were the leader, I wouldn't want to see you either."
Li Mi felt angry when he mentioned the battle at Dahai Temple. Yes, he lost the battle, but victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs. You can't stop fighting just because you lost a battle, right?
How can there be such a timid person?
Li Mi felt contempt in his heart, but he couldn't show it on his face because he still had to rely on Zhai Rang.
Seeing Li Mi's ugly face, Zhai Rang softened his tone and said, "Let's have a bowl of tea first. You must be thirsty after waiting outside for three hours."
It was more than three hours. Since the defeat, Zhai Rang didn't want to see him. He went to beg to see Zhai Rang every day, waiting for several hours each time. In the end, Zhai Rang didn't see him either.
Li Mi didn't look at the tea bowl or touch it. He was still immersed in his own thoughts.
After a long time, Li Mi calmed down his anxiety and said calmly to Jia Xiong: "I know I underestimated the enemy this time. I'm sorry brothers, and I am willing to accept the punishment.
“But the top priority is to revive the flag and drum, and the flag of Wagangzhai cannot fall.
"You help me again. Let me see Mr. Zhai. It only takes a quarter of an hour. After that, I will disappear in a quarter of an hour and never disturb Mr. Zhai again."
Seeing Li Mi's pleading eyes, Jia Xiong thought of the many benefits he had received from Li Mi on weekdays. His heart softened and he nodded: "Okay, I will help you one last time, but whether the leader wants to see you or not, just
For God’s sake.”
...
"Come in."
Jia Xiong opened the curtain and said to Li Mi.
The expression on Li Mi's face softened a lot, and he quickly walked into the camp.
"Zhai Gong."
"Sit down."
Zhai Rang greeted him and went about making tea, with a very perfunctory attitude.
Li Mi had long been fed up with the cold treatment, so he didn't take it to heart. He looked calm and said slowly: "This defeat is my fault, and I am willing to take full responsibility..."
"Bang."
Zhai Rang put the kettle on the table and sneered coldly: "You take full responsibility? We lost eight thousand brothers, food, grass, and luggage all in Xingyang City. Tell me, how can you take full responsibility?"
Li Mi choked and looked ashamed: "Li is ashamed. If I could exchange my life for the lives of my dead brothers, I would be willing to die a thousand or ten thousand times."
"However, people cannot be resurrected, so I can only try my best to compensate them. There are still brothers who are alive, and I have to think about them too."
Zhai Rang interrupted him impatiently: "Don't talk about those vain things. This time, I led the brothers out just to get some food. Now we have suffered heavy losses and we don't have the troops to fight with others. We will set off tomorrow.
