As requested by the students, the second chapter should be brought forward as well.
"… Speaking of which, Wuchen from the Yeh family was furious. He was not afraid of thousands of soldiers at all. He roared and rushed forward, waving a flaming broadsword in his hand. He dashed through the thousands of soldiers. In just a moment, blood and flesh were flying everywhere, and corpses were piled up like a mountain. No one was a match for him. The dog emperor of the Dafeng Kingdom saw how brave he was. He was so scared that he almost peed in his pants. He tried his best to gather the troops from the surrounding cities. He gathered more than a hundred thousand soldiers. Alas … Even though the Ye Clan's Wu Chen was a god that had descended into the world, it was a pity that he'd just killed that War God and the three elders of the Wind God, causing him to be completely exhausted. How could he endure the entanglement of an army of 100,000? Otherwise, how could a mere army of 100,000 be taken seriously by him? In the end, he was forced to the side of the Death Abyss that caused others to tremble in fear upon hearing its name. At that moment, it was as if he was possessed by the god of fire, and he summoned flames from beyond the heavens to incinerate the enemies that pursued behind him, burning an entire army of 100,000 to the ground … "
"Nonsense! It was two hundred thousand soldiers! You are lying! "
"You are all wrong. It was five hundred thousand soldiers. Five hundred thousand soldiers! At that time, it was said that the mountains and plains were covered with a dense black mass like the sea. In the end, not a single one of them was left alive. My grandpa saw it with his own eyes. He even said that the Dafeng Kingdom wanted to save face, so he lied and said that only tens of thousands of people were killed. "
"Alas, speaking of which, the Ye Family Prince still died. He was forced to die by the Dafeng Kingdom! Looking at the whole Tianchen Continent, there is no other country like our Tenryū Province. All of this is because of the Yeh family, the guardian of our Tenryū Province. The Yeh family is going to die this time. "
"That's right. And all of this is because of that stupid prince from the Dafeng Kingdom. He is a toad lusting for swan meat. He forced the young lady of the Yeh family to marry him. The Ye Family Prince was loyal to his friends. That's why he was killed. We can't let the Yeh family fall. We can't let the young ladies of the Yeh family marry over! "
"That's right. If we want to fight, let's fight. What does the Great Wind Nation count for? They were utterly defeated by the Yeh family in the past. Now, the Ye Family Prince single-handedly killed the so-called God of War and killed hundreds of thousands of people. They are just a bunch of weaklings who rely on their numbers to cause trouble. We don't need to be afraid of them at all. If they come, we'll fight them together and make them cry for their parents.
"Well said. The Yeh family has sacrificed so much for us. How can we just sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor? If we really fight, whoever is a coward will be the son of a tortoise. We, the civilians who don't join the army, aren't doing nothing either!"
…
…
What Ye Wuchen did in a fit of anger made him a legendary hero in the hearts of the people of Tenryū Province. He became more and more legendary. Some families named their newborn children after "Wuchen". As a result, after a few years in Tenryū Province, people named "Wuchen" could be found everywhere. His tragic battle in the Great Wind Nation and his being forced into the Soul Breaking Abyss also made the people of Tenryū Province less afraid of the Great Wind Nation. Waves of people who resisted the Great Wind Nation became more and more enthusiastic. When the news reached the Great Wind Nation, Feng Lie frowned. He was even more determined to not take any action in the short term. He wanted to wait for the people's sudden enthusiasm to subside.
When the news reached the Yeh family, Wang Wenshu didn't say a word. She just rolled her eyes and fainted.
Whether or not he became a hero, whether or not he was as miraculous as the rumors said, it didn't matter to her, because no matter what he achieved, he was still her son. However, he was forced to his death in the Great Wind Nation. It was a huge blow that a mother couldn't bear. The news of Ye Wuchen's death was like a bolt of lightning. She fainted after being struck.
That day, the entire Yeh family was lifeless. The servants of the Yeh family discussed in low voices in this depressing atmosphere. Their eyes shone with pride and admiration. Then, they shook their heads and sighed.
In the evening, the weather suddenly turned cold. When night fell, snowflakes began to fall from the sky. This snow that came too early meant that autumn was about to end and winter was about to come. The cold air made the cold and lonely Ye family even more frighteningly cold.
The next day, Ye Wei, who hadn't slept all night, opened the door to his room. It was still snowing. It had been snowing for the whole night. His hair had also turned white overnight. He stepped on the thick snow and walked with heavy steps towards the courtyard where Ye Nu was. He knew that his father must have been up all night too.
As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, he saw Ye Nu. He stood quietly in the courtyard with a dull look in his eyes. His body, shoulders, head … even his white beard was covered with snow. The cold wind kept blowing, but his body didn't shiver. It was as if he was completely stiff. Around his body, there was not a single footprint on the thick snow …
He actually stood in the snow and wind for an entire night!
Ye Wei was stunned for a while. Then, he shouted, "Father!" and hurriedly ran forward to support his father's body. His body was terrifyingly cold and stiff.
Ye Nu slowly turned his neck that was already stiff from the cold. He looked at his father with dull eyes and said in a hoarse and weak voice, "Chen'Er … Is she back …"
Hearing this, Ye Wei felt a lump in his throat. His father was a man made of iron, but he couldn't withstand such a heavy blow. Even when Ye Wuchen disappeared a year ago and everyone thought that something had happened to him, he didn't show such an expression, nor did he look like this. This was because Ye Wuchen had died in the past, and what had been severed was his familial ties and bloodline. Now that Ye Wuchen had died, not only had his familial ties and bloodline been severed, but also all of his hopes, hopes, and pride … This period of time could be said to be the happiest and most gratifying period of time for him in recent years. This was because his grandson, Ye Nu, was a genius that everyone knew about. He excelled in both literary and martial arts, created miracles time after time, made great contributions again and again, and made the Lin Clan, who had opposed the Ye Clan, lose face time and time again. He was proud of him from the bottom of his heart …
But in a night, it was gone just like that. He killed the God of War and tens of thousands of soldiers in Dafeng Country, creating a legend that shocked Tianchen — this wasn't what he wanted, because the price of all this was the separation of the old and the young.
He hated himself, hated himself for persuading Ye Shuiyao to marry Feng Ling. If she hadn't been forced to marry to Dafeng Country, today wouldn't have happened …
Late at night, facing the cold wind, he stood in the snow. What he felt was not cold, but a heartache that felt like a knife was cutting into his heart. He murmured again and again … 'Is this God's punishment for abandoning my family … If there's a punishment, why didn't it fall on me, but on Chen'Er …'
"Father, let's go back to the house first, let's go back first … Chen'Er hasn't come back yet, but if something happens to you, our family will really be destroyed!" He supported Ye Nu's body, which was like an ice sculpture, and walked into the house step by step. Ye Wei turned around and shouted, "Ye San and Ye Si, come and start the fire, quick!!"
The charcoal fire was burning red. Ye San and Ye Si stood respectfully by the door, and they sighed in their hearts. Old Man Ye had been a hero his whole life, but in the end, he had to give up his black hair for nothing. God was really too unfair to the Yeh family. Ye Nu sat in front of the charcoal fire, and his expression was still dull. Ye Wei personally massaged his whole body to soothe his stiff body.
The room was silent for a long time, and Ye Wei's heart felt like it was weighed down by a heavy stone. He squatted next to Ye Nu and said painfully, "Father, if you feel bad, say it, shout it, or cry it out. Don't keep it in your heart. Now that Chen'Er can't be by our side to look after us, we should take good care of ourselves. Don't hurt your body."
"The Emperor has arrived!"
A loud shout came from outside. Ye Wei was stunned, and just as he was about to get up, he saw Ye Nu's eyes suddenly shake. He suddenly got up, staggered a few steps, and ran out quickly. Ye Wei hurriedly followed. Ye San and Ye Si looked at each other, and hurriedly followed behind.
Ye Nu went to meet Long Yin. Because his body was stiff, he lost his balance and fell to his knees in front of Long Yin. He raised his head and said hatefully, "Your Majesty, this old subject asks for permission to fight against Da Feng!!"
Long Yin stopped in his tracks and shook his head. "Old General Ye, please get up first. We already know everything. Sigh. "
A long time ago, Ye Nu had been given special permission not to kneel in front of the Emperor. Ye Wei hurriedly helped Ye Nu up with the strength of an official. At this moment, Ye Nu's face was no longer ashen. Instead, he stared at Long Yin with a pair of majestic eyes filled with hatred and regret.
"Old General Ye, we completely understand how you feel. Sigh, the Yeh family's bloodline, the pillar of our Tenryū Province, was destroyed by Da Feng just like that. This is all our fault. We shouldn't have agreed to Feng Ling. "Long Yin let out a long sigh, and his face was full of sorrow and regret.
"This old subject asks for permission to fight, Your Majesty!" Ye Nu's eyes did not change, and he still said the same words filled with hatred. This Ye Nu, who had been calm all his life, would rather lose his mind under such a huge blow.
"We … won't allow it!" Long Yin shook his head helplessly, then he softened his tone and sighed. "When I first heard the bad news, I was also heartbroken. I can imagine the pain and hatred that Old General Ye must be feeling. If I were Old General Ye, I would also make the same request. But Old General Ye, our hatred for Da Feng is no less than yours. Day and night, I don't stop thinking about flattening Da Feng. It's not that I don't want to, but I can't. My every move and decision concerns the safety of the entire Tenryū Province. How can I ignore the life and death of the entire Tenryū Province just because of one person's hatred and one person's pain? "
He let out a long sigh and said sorrowfully, "My position and Old General Ye's position determine that we can't live for ourselves, but for the world. I believe Old General Ye understands what I'm saying."
Ye Wei also held Ye Nu's shoulder and said, "Father, His Majesty is right. We can't be so hasty in this matter. Even if we really want to fight, we need to think about it carefully."
"Live for the world …" Ye Nu repeated this sentence once and laughed bitterly. His laughter was incomparably desolate. "I, Ye Nu, have lived for the world my whole life. In this life, I didn't even talk to my granddaughter much. I personally sent her to Da Feng Country and almost destroyed her happiness. I didn't even spend a few days with my grandson. Now, I'm already separated from the world, and my corpse is nowhere to be found. Living for the world, I have enough … enough. His Majesty, I was too reckless in asking for the war. His Majesty, please allow me … to leave the imperial court. "
The heavy blow of Ye Wuchen's death made Ye Nu's heart truly cold. He was tired, tired, and only regret remained. He was already old and didn't know how much time he had left to live. In the remaining time, he only wanted to live for himself. Everything else had nothing to do with him.
Hearing this, Long Yin was silent for a while. After looking at Ye Nu for a long time, he slowly nodded. "These years, it's been really hard on Old General Ye. Since that's the case, we will agree. I also hope that Old General Ye can restrain your grief and take good care of your body. If there's any need, you can send someone to inform us at any time. "
Ye Nu lowered his head. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
"His Majesty, it's cold outside. Let's go inside and sit." Ye Wei supported Ye Nu's body and said.
"No, General Ye, help Old General Ye back to his room first. We want to personally visit Shinji."
Ye Wei heard that he didn't want anyone to follow him, so he said, "Your Majesty, please go ahead. This official will take his leave." After saying this, he supported Ye Nu and walked back step by step. He wasn't surprised by Ye Nu's decision. He really should have a good rest.
