Chapter 173 All Died Heroically
Yun'er nodded slightly, and the tension in her heart eased a little.
Shen Yiran and Ren Jingzhi looked at each other, and their eyes revealed their deep blessings for the couple.
Afterwards, Shen Yiran took Yun'er and walked towards the door with Ren Jingzhi.
It was still dark at this time, and in the dim morning light, there were about a hundred people gathered at the door.
When Ren Jingzhi arrived here, he was also stunned to see so many people. He then turned his gaze to Lin Bei and asked in confusion: "Why are there so many people?"
Lin Bei responded respectfully: "Master, the brothers heard that you were going to the border to quell the rebellion, and they insisted on going with you."
Ren Jingzhi felt guilty when he heard this. His thoughts went back to three years ago, when they had just won a battle and were happily returning home. However, they were plotted against by a villain on their way to Beijing.
In that battle, two hundred soldiers died heroically to protect him and never came back. Those vivid faces and fearless figures were like sharp blades piercing his heart.
At this moment, he looked at the hundred or so people in front of him and said with a heavy heart: "Brothers, I know you are sincere, but war is cruel.
Three years ago, we returned victoriously after pacifying the border, but were ambushed by a villain on the way back. The tragic scene is still vivid in my mind.
More than 200 brothers paid the price of their lives to protect me. I often blame myself, if I had been more cautious, if I had made better decisions, maybe they would not have left. "
There was a low murmur among the crowd, but it soon quieted down. Ren Jingzhi took a deep breath and continued, "I know you want to go to the battlefield, to avenge your brothers, and to serve the country.
I am the same. I am eager to find out who ambushed us and seek justice for my dead brothers. But we must be clear that war means bloodshed and sacrifice, and we may face countless dangers and difficulties. "
At this time, a soldier stood up and said loudly: "Deputy General Ren, we are not afraid! You are not to blame for what happened three years ago. We are willing to follow you to the battlefield. Only when the country is stable can we have the opportunity to avenge our brothers. We believe that under your leadership, we will be able to defeat the enemy!"
Others also echoed: "Yes, we are not afraid! For the country, for our brothers, we will not look back!"
Ren Jingzhi looked at these determined faces in front of him, and a warm current surged in his heart. He knew that these brothers were his strongest backers, and they shared the same beliefs and goals.
Ren Jingzhi turned around and wanted to say goodbye to Shen Yiran, but unexpectedly saw his father coming too, so he walked in quickly.
Ren Jingzhi walked quickly to his father, his eyes slightly red. He looked at his father's face, which was full of vicissitudes but still resolute, and his heart was full of emotion.
"Father, why are you here?" Ren Jingzhi asked softly.
The father nodded slightly, his eyes full of love and expectation: "My son, I know that you care about the country. You must be very careful when you go to the border. The brothers behind you all trust you, you must not let them down."
Ren Jingzhi nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, father. I will do my best to defend my country and avenge my brothers."
Ren's father reached out his hand and patted Ren Jingzhi's shoulder heavily: "Okay! I believe in you. When the country is in trouble, every citizen has a responsibility. You go now, I will wait for your triumphant return at home."
Ren Jingzhi then turned to Shen Yiran, holding her hands tightly, his eyes full of affection and attachment. He said solemnly: "Ranran, you must take good care of yourself and wait for me."
Shen Yiran raised the corners of her mouth slightly, trying to make herself look relaxed. She looked at Ren Jingzhi and said in a brisk tone, "Don't worry, I won't be idle. When you come back, I may have many interesting things to share with you."
Ren Jingzhi looked at her deeply, turned around resolutely, and mounted his horse.
He tightened the reins in his hands, squeezed his legs against the horse's belly, and the horse raised its hooves and moved forward. Lin Bei and the soldiers also mounted their horses and followed behind.
Lin Bei looked back at Yun'er reluctantly, his eyes full of affection, and waved at Yun'er vigorously.
When Yun'er saw Lin Bei's actions, her heart seemed to be tightened. She quickly raised her little hand high and waved it desperately, as if she wanted to convey all her concern and longing to Lin Bei through this small action.
The sound of horses' hooves gradually increased, raising clouds of dust. The morning sun shone on them, causing their armor to gleam faintly.
They were like a steel torrent, running firmly towards the border, and their figures gradually disappeared on the distant horizon.
After seeing Ren Jing off, Shen Yiran returned to the dormitory.
She leaned lazily against the door frame, raised her eyes slightly and glanced around the room, as if she could still catch a trace of Ren Jingzhi's presence.
She was usually carefree, but at this moment, she was a little dazed. She walked to the table, her fingers unconsciously fiddling with the small ornaments on the table, and the back of Ren Jingzhi leaving flashed through her mind.
A trace of reluctance and loss welled up in her heart, but she quickly suppressed it.
Then she chuckled, "Oh, when did I become so sentimental? If I continue like this, I'll soon become Lin Daiyu."
She has important things to do next.
She planned to visit her eldest brother during the day to discuss with him the development prospects of the shop and the farm, and at the same time ask Aunt Lan to return the part of the dowry that she didn't give her last time.
I'll go find Qin Rufeng at night. We can't delay this matter for too long, or else there will be more trouble.
Shen Yiran looked outside the door. It was still early, and it was obviously too early to go to the Shen Mansion.
She stretched and felt her body aching. She couldn't help but curse inwardly, "Damn you Ren Jingzhi, don't you have any self-control?"
She stood up, moved her neck first, then gently turned her head, feeling the cracking sound coming from her cervical vertebrae.
Then she stretched her arms upwards and stretched her body as hard as she could, as if she wanted to pull all the fatigue out of her body.
Then, she bent down slightly, put her hands on the ground, and held this position for a moment to stretch the muscles in her back. After standing up, she jumped a few times on the spot, trying to make the blood flow in her body smoother.
After doing these movements, she felt the soreness in her body eased a little, but when she thought of Ren Jingzhi, she couldn't help but hum softly, and a blush appeared on her face.
In the Shen Mansion, Shen Yunyu had just finished his breakfast when Hai Han hurried in. "Master, the young lady is back."
Shen Yunyu was filled with joy when he heard this. His sister was finally back. In order to manage the family shop well, he had read many books on business.
However, he has not been able to find a suitable way to conduct business, and is looking forward to his sister's return, so that he may discuss it with her.
Then, the sound of women laughing came from the door. Shen Yunyu looked up hurriedly and saw Shen Yiran walking in with Yun'er and Banxia.
At that moment, his eyes suddenly lit up with joy, as if the sky, which had been gloomy for a long time, was suddenly filled with warm sunshine.
He immediately stood up and walked towards his sister. "Ranran, you are finally back." Shen Yunyu's face was filled with smiles.
