Sima Lang handed over some matters concerning the Chariot and Cavalry General's Mansion to Sima Yi.
The things are not important, they are just some chores for Wang Ding.
For example, who is coming to visit today and what is happening in the city, Wang determines the daily schedule.
For Sima Yi, these things were easy to do. After a few days, everything was arranged in a tight and orderly manner without any mistakes.
And obviously, these things are not the limit of Sima Yi. He still has a lot of time every day to wander around the city and see what he wants to see.
Sima Yi didn't really like being just a secretary next to Wang Ding.
However, because he wanted to observe Wang Ding more, Sima Yi refused.
Because he was responsible for Wang Ding's chores, he had more contact time with Wang Ding.
However, Sima Yi was really disappointed.
He didn't see anything shining in Wang Ding. In his eyes, Wang Ding was just an ordinary boy, just three years older than him.
He really couldn't understand why Wang Ding could become the Han's cavalry general at this age, and everything he did was enough to change the direction of the Han.
Kill Dong Zhuo, level the Hetao, and conquer Hanzhong.
Everything is a big event, but no matter how Sima Yi looks at it, it doesn’t look like Wang Ding can do it.
In the past few days, Wang Ding really stayed in the military camp every day, training with the soldiers every day.
In Sima Yi's view, as a general of chariots and cavalry, Wang Ding should be in charge, and there was no need to participate in training himself.
Even on the battlefield, Wang Ding will not put himself in danger and will always be protected by soldiers.
In Sima Yi's view, Wang Ding only needs to take good care of his body.
Will Wang Ding still want to take the lead in every battle?
That's not what a lord should do, that's what a warrior who charges into battle should do.
Even if Wang Ding is very powerful and has the courage to match Lu Bu, but on the battlefield, there are blind swords and sneak attacks with hidden arrows. Even Lu Bu cannot guarantee that he will be safe every time he charges into battle.
There are always times when you have bad luck.
Of course Wang Ding understands that he will not put himself in danger easily.
Training to make himself strong enough is just to prevent him from being able to show his strength when he really needs to take action.
When facing assassins, he can also have a chance to backhand.
Even though there are guards around him.
However, the guards cannot block the assassin 100%, and it is impossible for them to follow Wang Ding twelve hours a day.
Wang Ding still believes that his own force is the greatest guarantee.
Moreover, training together with soldiers can unite the military and improve morale.
Wang Ding did not talk much about Neng with Sima Yi.
He can be sure that Sima Yi's ability is definitely stronger than that of his brother Sima Lang.
But Wang Ding still dared not fully trust Sima Yi.
Even if Wang Ding keeps telling himself in his heart that Sima Yi is only sixteen years old now, he does not have such big ambitions.
But every time, Wang Ding would directly ignore Sima Yi's current age when he saw Sima Yi's calm performance that was completely inconsistent with his age.
Sima Yi had been in contact with Wang Ding for a few days. With his intelligence and sensitivity, even if Wang Ding didn't say anything, everything seemed to be a normal communication, but Sima Yi had already felt that Wang Ding was a little wary of him.
Sima Yi couldn't understand this point. Why would Wang Ding be wary of him even though he was just handing over matters normally?
If it weren't for what Sima Lang said to him, Sima Yi might not have felt anything.
As a lord, it is nothing to be suspicious and wary of the people under your command.
Especially for newcomers, it is difficult to gain complete trust.
But in Sima Lang's words, Wang Ding is not a person who is suspicious of his subordinates.
Under Wang Ding's command, even those who have just surrendered will still gain Wang Ding's trust and be given military power.
From Sima Yi's observation, Wang Ding indeed trusted everyone else under his command.
As the head coach, Wang Ding doesn't care much about many things. He doesn't care about power at all. He will almost all give out the power that can be given out.
If you don't count the time spent training in the army, Sima Yi can be sure that Wang Ding, as a chariot and cavalry general of the Han Dynasty, is actually more leisurely than the prefect of a county.
It is more leisurely than those governors who do nothing.
Even Cui Jun, the current commander of Chang'an, is busier than Wang Ding.
Cui Jun is busy managing Chang'an City every day, the lives of half a million people, the food in the city, the disputes over the fields outside the city, the affairs of elementary schools, and the Veterans' Mansion...
As well as Zhang Lu’s Five Dou Taoist Temple, other wealthy gentry in the city, and the officials in the city.
As the magistrate of Chang'an, Cui Jun must be involved and take care of everything from the big things in the court to the small things down to the common people.
As Sima Lang's deputy and Wang Ding's second secretary, Sima Yi often had to deal with Cui Jun.
He also knew that Cui Jun had just come to Chang'an and was appointed as the Chang'an Order by Wang Ding, and asked Cui Jun to start an elementary school.
Wang Ding, on the other hand, almost never asks what Cui Jun did.
Cui Jun just reports to Wang Ding on a routine basis every day, informing Wang Ding of things he considers important.
But Sima Yi knew that Wang Ding didn't actually care about the things Cui Jun thought were important.
Many of Cui Jun's reports to Wang Ding had passed for many days, and Sima Yi had not seen Wang Ding read them, and they were still placed on the desk of Wang Ding's study.
What it looked like when he put it up, and what it looks like now.
It is estimated that in a few days, Wang Ding will ask him to clean it up.
In addition, Sima Yi also knows what his brother is responsible for now.
Almost every day, hundreds of secret messages are delivered to Sima Lang from outside.
Sima Yi didn't know the contents of the secret letter, but judging from the number of secret letters, he knew that Sima Lang was very valued by Wang Ding.
Relatively speaking, Sima Yi is more interested in what his brother is doing now.
But he didn't say it.
He already felt that Wang Ding was wary of him, so it was impossible for Sima Yi to ask him to handle the secret message.
After a few days, Sima Yi was a little disappointed with Wang Ding's behavior, but he did see some things that he couldn't see in other places.
The training of the Han army, the farming methods of the people outside the city, and the products sold in many shops in the city.
And the concise numbers he came into contact with.
Here, mathematics seems to be very simple. The people he comes into contact with, even Wang Ding's guards, can easily calculate two-digit numbers mentally, and some can even calculate three-digit numbers mentally.
A strange military song, but very nice.
Every time he followed Wang Ding to the military camp, Sima Yi could hear tens of thousands of soldiers singing together to serve the country with loyalty.
Sima Yi learned it just after listening to it once.
He was a little disappointed with Wang Ding, but Sima Yi felt that the trip was worthwhile and he really gained a lot in Chang'an.
Even though his current job makes Sima Yi feel bored and uninteresting, he is not in a hurry to leave.
