"Yunfan, I heard that you carried me back yesterday. I'm really ashamed."
"Young master, why did you say this? You are just happy, and most of the guests are drunk."
Early the next morning, Li Mu was talking to Xin Qiji in the courtyard, but at this moment the two of them were sitting around a stove. In the courtyard outside the door, snow was falling in the sky.
It's roughly December now, and snowing is not a rare thing. However, Xin Qiji, who was chatting with Li Mu, looked at the flying snow outside the door and was suddenly stunned.
"That day when you told me that you were not interested in government affairs, did you really mean it?" Xin Qiji suddenly asked Li Mu. Li Mu put down the teacup, looked up at him, and nodded.
Xin Qiji's attitude was immediately clear, and he didn't even need Li Mu's explanation. He just acquiesced in Li Mu's choice.
"It's up to you. Follow me. I'll at least keep you safe for the rest of your life." Xin Qiji said, but Li Mu hurriedly asked.
"Sir, do you mean that we really won't go to the battlefield in the future?"
Xin Qiji had a wry smile on his face. He didn't know how to answer Li Mu's question. He just looked out the window.
"It has been more than ten years. For more than ten years, my sword has not been unsheathed and I have not killed any enemy." Xin Qiji's eyes suddenly became profound.
"Ten years ago, I was full of ambition, waiting to fight on the battlefield and make contributions to the country. However, after I submitted the Ten Treatises and Nine Discussions of Miqin, they only read it as an article and never thought about actually doing it."
"Then, don't you feel a little unhappy? We obviously have the strength." Li Mu followed up and asked.
Xin Qiji lowered his head, shook his head, took a deep breath, and then spit it out.
"Wait, there will be a day. Besides, I also said that the Jin Kingdom will be defeated within sixty years. After the Jin Kingdom is destroyed, it is the time when we need to pay more attention."
"The situation that the Song Dynasty had to face at that time would be more complicated."
Xin Qiji said slowly. Li Mu looked at him and felt that what he said was right. He even felt that he had anticipated all the developments.
But that feeling of dissatisfaction has come up again. After all, when you are in your prime, how can it be so easy to fight on the battlefield when your temples are gray?
The courtyard suddenly became very quiet, until a long time later, a servant opened the courtyard door and ran in, handing a letter to Xin Qiji.
Xin Qiji opened it and looked at it. After a moment, he looked sad. He glanced at Li Mu, got up and walked towards the backyard.
It wasn't until the whole mansion suddenly became lively that Li Mu realized that it was Xin Qiji's father-in-law who had died of illness a few days ago.
…
When Xin Qiji hurriedly took leave and left the mansion with his wife and children in a carriage, Li Mu, who was standing at the door, looked at the traveling carriage with mixed feelings.
My system still didn't give me the answer I should have. The system didn't even give me the slightest hint of the truth I realized yesterday.
That means that what you understand is not correct.
In this way, he will continue to stay in this world. Even if a day passes here, only a second passes in the real world, but Li Mu is already tired of such a comfortable life.
I thought it would be a bloody battlefield experience, but in the end, it was just thunder and rain. Xin Qiji killed Zhang Anguo when he was twenty-two years old, which turned out to be the pinnacle moment on the battlefield.
From then on, it was settled in this corner of the south of the Yangtze River, and it was difficult to talk about the war.
Li Mu slowly turned around and was looking helplessly into the mansion, but when he raised his head, his expression changed.
Because at this moment, the scene around Li Mu began to change dramatically. The ice and snow on the ground smiled quickly, and the scenery around him also changed rapidly. Spring, summer, autumn, and winter passed by in a flash, and the feeling of difficulty in breathing came up.
, but Li Mu was in agitated mood.
Things have changed again, time has accelerated again, this is the third time this system has accelerated.
Is it because it already knows something? So it wants to tell itself the correct answer?
This thought flashed through Li Mu's mind, but the scenery in front of him suddenly stopped, and everything around him slowed down. Li Mu exhaled deeply, but saw that there was still a plaque of a mansion in front of him, and at this time Li Mu
Mu Hu felt like someone was patting him on the back.
"Uncle Yun, Uncle Yun, my father asked you to teach me martial arts, please teach me quickly?" A slightly hoarse child's voice sounded beside Li Mu. Li Mu turned around and saw a handsome boy standing there.
Behind him, looking at this seemingly familiar face, Li Mu suddenly realized that this was Xin Qiji's son.
"Wait a minute, Tie...Zhu, do you know what time it is now?" Li Mu asked awkwardly, preparing to ask the other party what time it was.
Xin Tiezhu's eyes flashed with doubts, but he answered honestly. After Li Mu's inquiry, Li Mu knew that it was already seven years since Chunxi, he was now in Hunan, and eight years had passed.
"Tie Zhu, where is your father?" Li Mu figured this out and asked the boy about Xin Qiji's whereabouts.
"Father went on an inspection tour, saying he wanted to see the suffering of the people." The boy said, but Li Mu nodded in his heart.
No matter what, Xin Qiji can be considered a good official. At least I can see that he is doing some practical things for the people.
After learning the whereabouts of Xin Qiji from the boy, Li Mu casually taught the boy two basic kung fu moves in the yard, and then hurried out.
Originally, Li Mu wanted Xin Tiezhu to practice strength training by holding a stone, but seeing that he was too thin, he gave up temporarily.
After leaving the mansion, Li Mu looked around and asked a few people about the situation on the way, but finally found out the specific whereabouts of Xin Qiji.
He is actually in prison now, just interrogating some prisoners in person.
Li Mu was stunned when he heard the news, but he immediately followed him and found a dark prison in this small city. Because Li Mu had a sign of Xin Qiji's staff on his body, the jailers also
Without making things too difficult for Li Mu, Li Mu was able to successfully see Xin Qiji who was interrogating the prisoner in this dark dungeon.
At this time, Xin Qiji was a bit older than before, and his figure was a little haggard, but his words were full of energy and dignity.
Li Mu looked over, and in front of Xin Qiji was a rather strong young man. People around him said that it was because this young man killed a bandit who came down from the mountain. The village was afraid of the bandits' revenge, and was also afraid that the young man would die in front of those bandits.
In the end, he was tied up to the government, charged with murder without knowledge, and was imprisoned.
"My lord, you keep asking me why I killed that bandit. Why don't you find some soldiers and horses and kill those bandits?"
At this time, the young man who was being interrogated became angry and shouted loudly at Xin Qiji. The guards around him immediately stepped forward to scold him. Xin Qiji quickly stopped him, but when he saw Li Mu appearing here, his expression changed slightly.
"Yunfan." Xin Qiji did not respond to the boy, but instead called him Li Mu.
Li Mu walked over and looked at Xin Qiji, who was already a little haggard, and waited for his next words.
But at this time, Xin Qiji pointed at the young man in front of him and asked the middle-aged Li Mu: "Yunfan, how many do you think this young man can hit?"
When Li Mu heard what Xin Qiji said, he immediately turned to look at the boy. Based on the news he just heard from the jailer, he thought for a moment and said, "Sir, this man is strong and strong, and I heard he can also do some basic kung fu. If he can
When facing each other with bare hands, one or two shouldn't be a problem."
Xin Qiji nodded after hearing this. Li Mu, the young man and the jailers all looked puzzled, but Xin Qiji moved his fingers and pointed at the other young men in the prison in front.
"What about these ones?"
