The promise of slow wear for the rest of your life

With no outsiders in the tent, Anol can finally rest for a while.

Unavoidably waking up from Situ Yan who still held his hand tightly while sleeping, Anol never left the bed in the end, and still leaned against the side of the bed to take a nap as in the previous three days.

Perhaps it was because of the tension in his mind that he relaxed. This time, Anol fell into a deep sleep, and slept until the sunset, before waking up hungry.

If he wasn't too hungry, he might be able to sleep for another night.

At this time, Situ Yan didn't know when he woke up.

As soon as A Nuoer opened his eyes, what he saw was Situ Yan's eyes full of warmth.

Arnold was stunned for a moment, and after returning to his senses in a blink of an eye, he bent his lips and smiled and asked him: "When did you wake up? Why didn't you wake me up?"

"I just woke up, I want you to sleep a little longer." Situ Yan's voice was slightly higher than before, and his body had obviously improved.

Anol couldn't help but look happy, and while raising his hand to feel his pulse, he continued to ask: "How do you feel? Apart from the pain in the wound, are there other discomforts?"

Situ Yan answered every question: "I feel much better. Apart from the pain in the wound, there is no other discomfort."

"That's good." Arnold nodded, got up and walked to the table, adjusted the amount of medicine according to Situ Yan's pulse condition that had improved a lot at this time, rewrote a prescription, and prepared three packs of medicinal materials along the way.

After finishing all this, A Nuoer poured a cup of hot water, returned to the couch, and gave Situ Yan a drink.

Outside the tent, Eunuch Fu heard some movement in the tent, and hurried inside to report: "My lord, Vice Marshal Lu is asking to see you."

Situ Yan responded: "Xuan."

Arnold took out the decoction in due course.

Lu Beizhan left in a hurry only about a quarter of an hour after he entered the king's tent, and took away Deputy General Xing at the same time.

Fu Lu ordered people to serve porridge and serve Situ Yan with some.

At this time, it happened that Arnold had also cooked the medicine.

After Situ Yan took the medicine, Anol personally changed the medicine and wiped his body, and changed the bedding.

It wasn't until he finished his work that Arnold sat down at the table, opened the food box Song Yan and He Ming sent, and had dinner.

That night, Mr. Fu was sent out of the king's tent by Situyan on the grounds that someone was taking care of him.

Arnold couldn't resist Situ Yan's repeated invitation, and slept on the side of the bed.

The two fell asleep together, and both had a good night's sleep.

While Situ Yan was recuperating from his wounds, the Beili Army never invaded, and Lu Beizhan and other soldiers rarely came to disturb each other.

The wound medicines Anol used for him were all high-quality special wound medicines.

Not to mention anything else, just talk about the Nine-turn Yulu Rejuvenation Pill, which is a rare healing product in the world.

In addition, when decocting the medicine, he would quietly add a few drops of the Spiritual Spring of Life as a supplement.

As a result, the speed at which Situ Yan's injury improved could be said to vary from day to day.

In just half a month, Situ Yan, who was supposed to be bedridden for at least a hundred days, was able to get out of bed.

Except for the three serious arrow wounds on the chest and abdomen that have not completely healed, the wounds on the legs and arms have all healed.

Situ Yan was well aware of the unique efficacy of Jiuzhuan Yulu Huichun Pill, so he never doubted it.

Seeing that he recovered so quickly from his injuries, others would only think that it was because he was protected by dragon energy, and auspicious people have their own aura, and they would never think of going anywhere else.

Like Fu Lu, even if he was a person who served Situ Yan personally, he never noticed anything special about the medicine Anor used for him.

Since he recovered from his injury to the point where he could stay in bed, Situ Yan has lived a busy life of getting up early and going to bed late.

During the day, I either deal with military affairs or government affairs. Before going to bed, I don’t forget to read military books and study the method of arranging troops.

In order to avoid suspicion, Arnold no longer stayed by his side every day.

In the morning, after eating breakfast, I usually go to the medical tent to fiddle with medicinal materials, and by the way, I will cooperate with the military doctors to treat the wounded soldiers.It was not until noon that he returned to Wang's account, personally decocted and changed the medicine for him, and then had lunch with him, plus a lunch break.

In the afternoon, Situ Yan stayed in the king's tent to handle military and government affairs, while Arnold went to the medical tent, and finally returned in the evening.

As for this, Eunuch Fu declared to the outside world that the reason why Si Langzhong still stayed overnight in the king's tent was because the body of the holy dragon had not yet fully healed, and it was a matter of urgency and helplessness.

Those who believe have nothing to say, and those who don't believe don't dare to gossip casually.

In short, after Cong Yan and He Ming repeatedly stated that his master is a man and not a brother, his reputation in the military camp is still mixed.

In the blink of an eye, Arnold has been in the army for more than a month.

At this time, Situ Yan's injuries had completely healed.

The Beili garrison, which has retreated for more than tens of miles, has still not moved.

Situ Yan was already preparing to regain his strength, and he was caught off guard by sending troops recently.

On this day, Situ Yan summoned Lu Beizhan and all the soldiers to enter the king's tent, intending to discuss with him the matter of dispatching troops. It is very rare for Anol not to go out of the tent first to avoid suspicion.

Situ Yanle said that he could be by his side all the time, so he would not take the initiative to let him go.

As for "avoiding suspicion", Situ Yan never felt that there was any suspicion between the two of them that could be avoided.

Lu Beizhan already knew about the relationship between the two from Situ Yan, so he wouldn't make fun of himself.

The rest of the soldiers did not dare to act on their behalf, committing the above crimes.

So Arnold stayed in the king's tent without any resistance.

At first when they were discussing the plan to dispatch troops, the soldiers were still a little reluctant to let go, and it was inevitable that some people had scruples in their words.

Later, it was discovered that Arnold only listened but didn't speak, and was as quiet as nothing, so the soldiers gradually let go of their scruples and gradually ignored it.

But Situ Yan would still pay attention to the changes in Anol's complexion, and promptly signaled Eunuch Fu to pour tea for him.

Near noon, after nearly two hours of discussion, the specific implementation time and steps of the troop dispatch plan were finalized one by one.

All the soldiers, together with Lu Beizhan, respectfully received the holy orders and hurriedly withdrew from the king's tent.

Eunuch Fu sent someone to bring lunch in due course.

Situ Yan and Arnold finished their meal together.

After Eunuch Fu cleaned up the leftovers on the table and left the king's tent in person, Arnold stopped Situ Yan who wanted to take him out of the tent for a walk to digest food.

On this day, the two had an in-depth discussion on the saying that "the trend of the world, when united for a long time, must be divided, and when divided for a long time, it must be united".

At the end of the conversation, Arnold boldly made a hypothesis, asking Situ Yan to choose between the subjugated king who ruined the country and the first emperor who ruled the world.

It was also thanks to the fact that there were only two of them in the king's tent, but if any one of them heard this disrespectful assumption, they would immediately raise the table and ask Arnold for the crime.

Fortunately, Situ Yan did not disappoint Anol's trust.

Not only did he never blame him, but he also made his own choice without hesitation.

If the time was before he met Arnold and asked him to make a choice, Situ Yan would definitely not care whether the Dongyue Kingdom died or not.

Or it should be said that before that, Situ Yan had no intention of taking the throne.

To put it bluntly, Situ Yan was not afraid of people's jokes, but before that, Situ Yan had been looking forward to it all day long, that someone would stand up bravely and compete with him for the throne, so that he could justifiably abdicate.

Unfortunately, such a good thing never happened.

Now, Situ Yan's mentality is completely different from before.

Before meeting Arnold, for Situ Yan, the throne was a burden that he had to bear since he was enlightened, and it was also a shackle that he could not shake off.

It wasn't until he met Arnold and experienced civilian life with him that Situ Yan knew what a people is, what a country is, and what a king is.

When the burden becomes a responsibility, the shackles also disappear invisible.

Today's Situ Yan still yearns for a free life with no restraints and a sword in the sky, but at the same time, he has already made up his mind to shoulder his own responsibilities, and to be a people-oriented king of East Vietnam from beginning to end.

Of course, it would be absolutely false to say that Situ Yan had no selfish intentions when making this decision.After all, the person he fell in love with had an extraordinary background.

It is precisely because of this that he has to hold on to the power in his hands so as not to be obstructed by others.

It is conceivable that between the subjugated Lord and the First Emperor, what choice he will make at this moment.

Arnold has no way of knowing the details here.

After he made his choice, Arnold didn't even ask him why, nor did he explore when his ambition arose.

At that time, Arnold only said: "In this case, let's make preparations early."

At that time, Situ Yan hadn't taken the hypothesis seriously, and when he heard this, he didn't think deeply about it.

Only when Arnold said this was just planning for a rainy day and taking precautions, he said in passing: "In recent years, all countries are a little bit ready to move, and we really should make some preparations earlier."

Arnold nodded with a smile, and didn't say anything else, so as not to increase the pressure.

Until three months later, the Beili army was defeated like a mountain, and the reinforcements were also defeated and fled. The East Vietnamese army won a great victory, and the war at the northern border was completely subsided.

Arnold, who has been in the army for nearly five months, has just handed over his recent preparations to Situ Yan, and by the way, also told Situ Yan the secret information of various countries that he has recently discovered.

At first, when Arnold mentioned that the Xiqi Kingdom and the Beili Kingdom had secretly formed an alliance a month ago, Situ Yan's attention was mostly still focused on the lifelike drawings of soldiers and armor he had drawn.

It wasn't until Arnold mentioned that the artisans under the Prince of Xiqi Kingdom had recently produced extremely lethal firecrackers and cannons that Situ Yan's attention was completely drawn away by what he said.

"What are firecrackers and cannons?" Situ Yan raised his eyes to look at him, with only doubts but no fear in his eyes.

"The firecracker is what it is."

As he spoke, Arnold picked out a blueprint showing the complete form of the firecracker, and handed it to him.

"This thing is more powerful than ordinary arrows and has a longer range. It can easily break through iron armor. If the power is enough and the aim is good enough, even if it is held by a child, it can kill people from a hundred meters away."

Hearing this, Situ Yan's pupils shrank slightly, and his hand holding the blueprint suddenly tightened.

Immediately afterwards, Arnold picked out a blueprint of a cannon in its complete form, handed it to him, and said: "This is a cannon. It is not only a sharp weapon for beheading soldiers, but also a sharp weapon for siege. If it is powerful enough and handled properly, it can be fired in one shot." Down, the city wall will fall, and it will be easy to kill hundreds of soldiers."

Situ Yan would not doubt what Arnold said, and it was precisely because of this that he could hear and imagine the unrivaled lethality that these two weapons could cause if each of them was used in battle.

It was also at this time that Situ Yan suddenly felt a sense of crisis that the country was about to collapse.
