a few days later.

Although it was late at this time, the city lord's mansion was still brightly lit and full of voices.

Today is Li Yun's father's birthday, and all the famous people in Beijiang City came to celebrate the old man's birthday, and the City Lord's Mansion was extremely lively.

Li Yun's father is named Li Si, and he is also a veteran in the battlefield. He once garrisoned the frontier for the great Han and made great military exploits.

Therefore, even though this is a special period, Li Si did not celebrate his birthday, but many guests came spontaneously.

However, there was a guest whom Li Yun personally invited under Li Si's order.

This person is Jia Jue.

Li Si was getting old and his legs were not very good, so he hadn't been able to meet Jia Jue before.

Taking advantage of his birthday this time, it happened to be able to visit him.

But in Youshi, Jia Jue came as promised, and Li Si was able to see him.

After the two met, he immediately knelt down to salute Jia Jue.

Jia Jue quickly stopped him: "Old General Li, hurry up, please, today the palace is only here to celebrate the birthday of General Li, it is not official business, General Li does not need to salute, please take your seat."

Li Si got up, looked at Jia Jue carefully, and praised:

"His Royal Highness looks dignified and has an extraordinary bearing. He really is a dragon and a phoenix among people. It is really lucky for me to see His Highness in this life."

"Old General Li has praised me a lot. It is my honor to be able to listen to the teachings of Old General Li face to face." Jia Jue said with a smile.

"Hahaha! Your Highness is too modest." Li Siwen laughed and pulled Jia Jue into the table.

The two made some concessions before taking their seats.

Jia Jue took the main seat, and Li Si sat next to him.

Seeing that the two were seated, Li Yun immediately stood up and sent blessings and birthday gifts to Li Si.

And this can be regarded as the beginning of the official process of birthday celebration.

The visiting guests came forward to send blessings and birthday gifts one by one, and the scene was very lively.

Compared with the dignitaries in the capital, the congratulatory gifts sent by local celebrities in northern Xinjiang are much "shabby".

There are very few gold, silver and jade wares, antiques and rare treasures, most of which are equipment such as swords, guns, swords and halberds, horse armor, and many of them are gifts of exotic animals.

Although it is not expensive, it shows the mind and fits the unique folk customs of northern Xinjiang.A little less comparison, a little more fun.

Soon the birthday presents of the guests were all over, and everyone's eyes fell on Jia Jue.

Jia Jue laughed and said to Li Si: "Old General Li, I came in a hurry, but I didn't prepare any decent gifts."

Li Si quickly waved his hands: "What's the matter with your highness, if your highness can come, it will already be a great face to the old man."

Jia Jue shook his head: "However, since it is General Li's birthday, there is no reason for me to come here empty-handed."

As he spoke, he took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Li Si, saying loudly:
"I wish old general Li: Taishan is not old and prosperous, and Fuhai is endless and strong."

Everyone applauded when they heard the words.

Li Si quickly got up and took the small bottle from Jia Jue.

Seeing this, Li Hao hurriedly booed: "Grandfather, it's not unusual for His Highness to make a move. Why don't you ask Grandpa to open the bottle and let me open my eyes."

Everyone clamored that yes, they were very curious about what Jia Jue sent.

"This..." Li Si hesitated for a moment, then looked at Jia Jue.

Jia Jue laughed: "Old General Li opened it, and I have some things to ask you."

Li Si nodded and uncorked the bottle.

He wanted to see what was in the bottle, but the moment the cork was pulled out, a strong medicinal fragrance wafted out of the bottle.

Everyone in the field sniffed gently, and showed shocked expressions:

"What kind of elixir is this? Why do you feel comfortable just by smelling it?"

"Yeah, after smelling the fragrance of this medicine, my old cold legs don't hurt much anymore."

"Yes, my old illness seems to have eased a lot! This, this is a fairy medicine!"

……

Li Si's complexion changed, he quickly put the lid on the bottle, and returned it to Jia Jue:

"Your Highness, this kind of elixir is too much for the old man, so please take it back, Your Highness."

His legs and feet were almost completely numb due to the injuries he had suffered in battles in the early years, but after taking a sip of the fragrance of the medicine, he actually felt a faint sensation in his feet.

This made him immediately understand what a precious elixir was contained in this bottle.

Jia Jue shook his head with a smile: "Old General Li, you have been stationed in northern Xinjiang for my big man. You have fought all your life and made great achievements. Why can't you afford a mere bottle of medicine?"

"But Your Highness, wouldn't it be a waste of such a panacea for the old man?" Li Si still wanted to decline.

"Trass? In the eyes of my palace, even a hundred bottles of elixir are not worth a single bit of Old General Li." Jia Jue shook his head, "Old General Li is the pillar of my great man, and the model of my great man, isn't it? Nothing compared to a bottle of dead matter."

The eyes of the three generations of the Li family were reddened by these words, and Li Si wanted to kneel down to Jia Jue.

They were greatly moved by Jia Jue's words. Many people once advised them to return to the capital to enjoy happiness, but they all refused. Instead, they stayed in this barren land and guarded the frontier for generations.

For that, there are plenty of people who secretly laugh at them for being stupid.

And Jia Jue's words not only recognized their dedication, but also gave them great respect and praise.

How could they not be moved?
The so-called scholar died for the confidant, and that was the case.

Not only them, but most of the people on the scene also showed a moved expression. It's not that they are incapable of leaving the northern border, but a responsibility urges them to take root here and guard the northern border for the great man.

Jia Jue quickly helped Li Si up: "Old General Li, there is no need to do this. Your Li family has paid a lot for the big man, how can I not see it, you deserve it."

Li Si wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Jia Jue:

"Old General Li, this elixir is extremely powerful. Remember, you can only take one pill every ten days, and you must not take more."

Li Si nodded: "Thank you Your Highness, the old man took note."

Li Yun hurriedly said to Jia Jue: "Your Highness, I wonder if this elixir can heal my father's leg injury?"

Jia Jue smiled faintly: "If old general Li takes the medicine on time, according to my opinion, you will be old general Li's opponent within three months."

what?
Everyone in the field exclaimed when they heard the words.

Li Yun was overjoyed, and immediately knelt down to salute Jia Jue: "Thank you, Your Highness, for donating the medicine!"

Jia Jue smiled: "General Li, I have something else to trouble you."

"Your Highness, please give me instructions. The last general will definitely do his best." Li Yun replied loudly.

"I trouble you to draw up a list of the wounded in northern Xinjiang. Anyone who has made meritorious service to the great man and is wounded will be given the elixir," Jia Jue said.

Hearing what he said, everyone in the field was shocked. Their eyes were red, and they knelt down to Jia Jue, sobbing and praying:

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness!"
