On the official road, a carriage slowly moved forward under the escort of cavalry. Cao Weiyi looked at the familiar and unfamiliar scenes outside in front of the car window. He entered the army since he was a teenager. Although he could occasionally go back to Beijing to visit his family, he spent most of his time fighting outside. The last time he returned to Beijing was when his elder brother Cao Can died. Calculate the time, he had not been back for nearly ten years.

After receiving the imperial edict from the court, Cao Wei immediately left Qingzhou. The main reason was that his body was so bad, especially his legs, which were sore and swelled this year. Not to mention riding a horse, he even needed someone to help him walk. In addition, some other illnesses made Cao Wei even more painful, so he wrote a letter to ask to return to Beijing to recuperate.

Thinking of his condition, Cao Wei couldn't help but beat his legs. Although he had other diseases on his body, the most serious one was these legs. This was the root of the disease he had when he was in Hebei. I remember that he led his troops to fight against the Liao people. He once ambushed in the snow for three days and three nights, and then ambushed a team of Liao cavalry and wiped out them all. But since then, problems with his legs have occurred, and now they are getting worse and worse.

In fact, Cao Chang's people are relatively long-lived. Cao Wei's father Cao Bin is also a famous founding general and finally lived to be 69 years old. His eldest brother Cao Can lived to be 70 years old, but he is less than 60 years old this year. He should have a lifespan of more than ten years, but because of these legs, he can no longer stay in the army.

"Father, there is the capital city ahead. I have already seen the walls of the capital city!" At this moment, Cao Ma suddenly rode his horse to the window and shouted excitedly to Cao Wei. This time he returned to Beijing to recuperate, Cao Ma also deliberately put down the Musket Army's affairs and escorted him back to Beijing.

Hearing his son's words, Cao Wei also poked his head out and looked forward. Sure enough, he vaguely saw the tall walls of the capital in the heart of Daolu, which made Cao Wei excited. It seemed that they would be able to arrive in the capital this afternoon. Although he often communicated with his family, he missed his old wives and children very much, especially his grandson had already married, and he didn't know when he would give birth to a great-grandson for him?

"After entering the city, we must visit Brother Li's house. If it weren't for him this time, I'm afraid the court wouldn't have easily agreed to let your father go back to Beijing." At this time, Cao Masa said excitedly again. He hadn't come back for many years, and even his wife was taken to live in Gyeongju. Even his son was born there, which was considered to have settled in Gyeongju.

Cao Wei also knew that he was thankful to Li Zhang when he returned to Beijing this time. After all, he had already found out about the martial arts after receiving the order, so he nodded and said, "I really have to thank Li Zhang. He not only helped me, but also helped our Song Dynasty. If that martial arts can be established, it will provide the Song Dynasty with a steady stream of talents in the future, thereby solving the situation where no one in the army is available."

"I'm going to say that I should have done this long ago. My second and third uncles are idle all day long, and they don't practice military skills or learn martial arts. If you let them continue to make trouble, our Cao family will decline sooner or later!" Cao Masa said again at this time. The Cao family has already grown up, and he is already the third generation. However, in his generation, there are not many people who have truly become weapons. Most people have given up the military skills left by their ancestors and are addicted to pleasure every day. Cao Masa also hates this very much.

"I also see the decline of the general's sect, but I have never thought of such a way. Now that martial arts is released, those general's sect must enter the military again. I will also polish them well. Although doing so may offend some people, I don't care about these things now." Cao Wei also spoke at the moment, but at the end, he showed a little worry because he was worried about his condition. If he couldn't hold on and fell down, it would be difficult to find a suitable person to take charge of martial arts.

Cao Mata also saw the change in his father's face and sighed inwardly. He knew his father's condition more than anyone else. The northwest not only had a bitter and cold climate, but also had no skilled doctors. This is also the main reason why his father's condition continues to deteriorate.

The capital was near, and Cao Mai also urged the team to speed up. By the afternoon, they finally arrived at the city of Tokyo, and also sent people to the city to report the news early. As a result, when they arrived in front of the city gate, many people had already come to greet him, most of whom were relatives and friends of the Cao family. Cao Mai saw a person in the crowd who had been missing for a long time.

"Brother Li, thank you for this time!" Cao Mata quickly stepped forward and saluted a young man. This man was Li Zhang who came to greet Cao Wei. He rushed over immediately after receiving the news.

"Brother Cao, you are polite. These are all things I should do!" Li Zhang hurriedly replied, and then he followed Cao Mata to salute Cao Wei. Cao Wei also pulled him to talk for a while, but there were too many people coming to greet him, and Li Zhang couldn't chat for too long. Finally, he made an appointment with Cao Wei to visit, mainly to discuss martial arts matters. After all, Cao Wei is inconvenient now, so some things must be more worried about.

Finally, Li Zhang watched Cao Wei's carriage enter the capital surrounded by everyone, and then he sighed. When he saw Cao Wei last time, the other party could command thousands of troops to kill the enemy, but now when we meet again, the other party can only sit in the carriage, and his legs are almost disabled. This is undoubtedly extremely cruel for a general.

Three days later, Li Zhang estimated that Cao Wei should have been placed, and they agreed to meet today last time, so Li Zhang prepared some gifts to Cao Wei, the most important of which was a bottle of medicinal wine, which he prepared after knowing that Cao Wei had serious cold legs.

Li Zhang didn't know much about traditional Chinese medicine, but there were some records about traditional Chinese medicine in the information on his computer, including the method of soaking this medicinal wine for the treatment of rheumatism. He didn't know if it was useful, but he still collected all the medicinal materials and distilled them out of high-alcohol wine by distillation. After soaking for a long time, he was ready to give Cao Wei a try.

Now Li Zhang came to the Cao family. The Cao family has a great business and has been separated. Cao Wei has his own separate mansion. When he came here, Cao Mai immediately greeted him in person. However, Li Zhang found that Cao Mai's face was a little wrong, and he couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong with Brother Cao? Is there something wrong in the mansion?"

"It's nothing, it's just that my father has been working hard all the way, and he was a little unacceptable to the local conditions when he returned to the capital, so he suffered from leg illness again." Cao Mata sighed at this time.
