Chapter 56: Embracing the Pine in Spring Chill
and the peril of national warfare have all been left behind.This "old-fashioned" true person, who had flown into a rage at the mere mention from Jing Guo, now seemed to care nothing about anything.Hi...Latest URL:
Spring arrives but the trees do not wither, ancient trees burdened with illness, cold winds howl across the plains.
Within the Jiujiang military camp, Du Yexiao removed his helmet and sat silently. Compared to before, his imposing physique seemed to lack some of its former ferocity.

Yang Yin, clad in armor, had a solemn expression and sunken eyes: "General, are you leaving"
Du Yehu once was a reckless man. After several years as the Grand General of Zhuang Guo, he had become somewhat more stable.
...it was this stability that made Yang Yin feel unfamiliar.
He was accustomed to charging at the forefront behind Du Yecho, accustomed to filling in for him, accustomed to that fiery nature and scorching hot manner of his superior officer, a straightforward tiger general.
Now it's like this, able to restrain oneself. Military power can be given up, and even brothers can be abandoned. Ideals have become a joke.
Du Yexi clenched his right hand, pounding his temples: "It's time to go."
Yang Yin pressed a knife to his hand, leaning forward. For the first time in his life, he showed such an attitude towards Du Yecho and snarled: “Are you going to abandon all your brothers and go to Qi State to pledge allegiance to Danjun Wei!”
Dan Junwei was originally a general of Mo State. He defected to Zhuang State and was arranged by Zhuang Gaoxian to replace Du Yexi's military power.

At that time, Yang Yin led his men to Xinan and was ready to kill this man first. However, when he entered the tent with a drawn sword, he realized that the man had been persuaded by Chong Xuan Sheng and had joined forces with them instead.
After overthrowing Zhuang Gao Xian, Du Ye Hu became the Great General. Dan Jun Wei then defected to a new patron and went to Qi State to develop his career.
The country of Mo is not as good as the country of Zhuang, and the country of Zhuang is completely incomparable to the country of Qi.
Dan Junwei's life exemplifies the saying, "People go higher."

This statement of Yang Yin's is a piercing attack!
He was prepared to make Du Yexi furious, punch him, and even kill him on the spot.
But Du Yecho only glanced at him gloomily.
>
The face, shadowed by a bushy beard, bore a weariness that had never been seen before.
“Yang Yin,” said Du Yexiao in a world-weary voice, “a person’s talents are limited, you know”
Yang Yin didn't understand why the general said that.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
These soldiers were just fighting for their lives, wielding their swords. Who can say that anyone's talent is limitless

Du Yexi looked at him: "If there is no earth-shattering change, you will never have the chance to achieve divinity in your lifetime."
Yang Yin was fuming: "I understand! The General despises my abilities! Leave here, and you'll have more excellent subordinates, each capable of divine presence"
Du Yehu said to himself, "I am someone who cultivates by surging qi and blood, following the ancient martial artist's path. It takes nine deaths and one life to barely catch up with my peers in cultivation, but I am still far behind. Before I reach forty, there is hope for me to achieve divine presence, but if I don't succeed by fifty, it will be impossible. The battles I fight are draining, and people like me have no right to grow old."
Yang Yin coldly said, "So you're going to leave here and look for your chance to meet the divine. You now feel that all these brothers who have followed you for so many years are a burden to you!"
"Instead, Du Yexi laughed: 'You've always been the one urging me on. Today, you're more impulsive than I am.'"
Yang Yin pounded his fists on the military table: "We haven't lost yet, what can that bunch of old Taoists from the Elders Council do! Everyone supports you, I don't understand why you won't fight!"
>
"I don't have that talent! You understand" Du Yeliang leaned back, grinning at him. "Even though I quit drinking, my head is still not working right. I seriously read military books, looking up every word in the dictionary. I want everyone to live a good life, so that the past pain doesn't happen again, but I can't do it! I don't have the ability—you understand"
Du Yexiao spoke, and for a moment his emotions were stirred. But he sat back down and lightly pressed the table: “We've tried, we failed. If we can't do it in this position, then we should let someone more capable take over. Jiujing Xuanjia doesn't belong to me, Du Yexiao. It belongs to the people of Zhuang Country. That's just how simple things are.”
Yang Yin fell silent for a moment, then finally said, "You don't want to fight to the death and drag Elder Jiang into this, do you"
Du Yecho merely said: "If our ideals were right, I would sacrifice everything. But they have been proven wrong - people should not repeat mistakes. Especially when the price is ultimately borne by the common people."
Yang Yin then said, "With Elder Jiang present, the General's life is secure. Where do you intend to go"

"Will you come with me" asked Du Yecho.
>
"What's the difference" Yang Yin countered.
Du Yecho frankly stated: "My choice would be different."
>
Yang Yin looked at him and said, "I am from the State of Zhuang."
Du Yehu stood up, patted him on the shoulder, and then walked past him.
Yang Yin stood straight, sword in hand, gazing at the military map without uttering a word. In General Zhuang's tent, only his helmet remained.
After many years of camaraderie, this chance encounter became a farewell.
Stepping out of the military tent, Du Yexiao immediately saw Li Jianqiu.
This guy has swapped his official robes for a plain long shirt, he's tied back his hair with a dao hairpin and has his sword hanging at his waist. Standing loosely in the open space outside the tent, he looks every bit the wandering swordsman.
Today, the general removed his helmet and the prime minister took off his ceremonial robes. Looking at each other, they both smiled.
The past years of unity and cooperation, summed up, are all in this faint smile.
"Brother Du, where are you planning to go next" Li Jianqiu asked, "Yun Guo or Star Moon Origin"
If Yang Yin and the other old brothers still want to follow Du Yehu, he will find a way to make a future for them. Now he just said: "I'm planning to travel around - what about you"

Li Jianqiu raised the corner of his mouth: "I plan to travel with Brother Du!"
> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
In each other's eyes, they saw a kind of unwillingness. It wasn't dissatisfaction with political failure, but an unwillingness for their spirits to be extinguished like this.
The faint glimmer of light that danced in the sky that night, swaying and flickering, ultimately did not appear in the window.
These passionate young people have a desire to change the world, but their understanding of this world is very superficial. The ideals they build upon are like castles in the air. Ultimately, amidst the changing events of the world, they see the naiveté of their own beliefs.
So they naturally wanted to travel the world, to see how people lived in different corners of the globe and to meet the wise men of each place, to see how they faced the world. They hoped to find the true path leading to their ideal.
At this time, a laughing voice echoed through the air, "Where are you going for a walk"
Song Qingyue stepped into the light and fell, complaining: "Why didn't you bring me"
Du Yehǔ looked at him and asked, "Where is Qingzhī"
"She's gone to the Cloud Kingdom to find her best friend from back then." Song Qingyue waved her hand and said seriously, "You two can't isolate yourselves, we're all remnants on the same boat."
Li Jianqiu said: "A broken ship with remnants of the party, just right."
>
Du Yecho opened his hands wide and made a pushing gesture forward: "Go together, go together!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The three then left together.
Du Laohu's prestige in the army was exceptional. When he left the military camp gate, soldiers came to see him off, almost filling the place.
But nobody said a word.
The warriors simply stood aside in silence, parting to allow the three of them passage.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
All three remained silent.
This is a silent farewell, soldiers bidding farewell to their general.
Although we are far from the military camp, looking back, we can still see a faint crowd.
After becoming the prime minister, the increasingly cautious and dignified Li Jianqiu sighed with a hint of melancholy: “In this situation, I suddenly thought of a word.”
“What word” Du Yehu asked, his spirits lifted with interest.
"A wastrel," Li Jianqiu said.
He shook his head and laughed self-deprecatingly: “My whole life has been a failure.”
The stone inscription of Li Jianqiu, the "prodigal son," is still standing on Shupizhen Peak. It is often visited by poets and scholars who admire it.
Of course, the past few years have been all about praising and glorifying him, with terms like "a prodigal son returning," "knowing shame and being courageous," and "it's never too late to be magnificent"... But in these past six months, complaints have become commonplace.
Song Qingyue pondered for a moment: “If we have to argue, I could count as a dragon.”
“Then I am a tiger.” Du Yexi said.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Song Qingyue laughed: "Then we are the remnants of Qi Ming, the wolves and tigers—"
“Hey!” Li Jianqiu quickly interrupted, “'Dog' is too harsh. I didn't say that it should be the name.”
By the time I, Wei, arrived in Zhuang Guo, "Dog Jiao Hu" had already left the country.
The coup instigated by the Senate took place in a remarkably short period of time.
With the support of the Celestial Dao, the methods of Zhang Ren in the middle, the release of the Xin-Party, and the direction of public opinion below, this coup d'état itself was without any suspense.
When I received the news, I rushed here. Things have gone from budding to fruition.
Luckily, they didn't arrive too late and Du Yecho and the others were unharmed.
Once groomed as a future leader, Zhu Weimo possessed a keen political sense. Throughout history, coups have always been bloody affairs. This time, however, the upheaval involved a complete overturn of power – civil, military, and financial. The coup faction held absolute dominance, yet it ended so peacefully…
One can only say that Elder Jiang is truly renowned. He caused a stir in the capital city, establishing his dominance—no one wants to face Elder Jiang like that.
Having entered the Xin'an City, Zhu Wei prepared to leave after briefly learning about the situation of the Xiangfu.
But then, from afar, cheers could be heard —
This is an example of how to use markdown.
“Great! Kill them all! Kill them all!”
"Bringing ruin to the nation and harming its people, they deserve to be killed!"
I asked the nearby law enforcement cultivator I was grabbing: “Who was being punished over there just now”
But this monk recognized me, Zhu Wei. He exclaimed, "Zhu—"
Zhu Wei patted him: "Get to the point."
Looking at the former imperial pride, one of the main forces that later overthrew Emperor Zhuang Gao's dominance, the Jixing Si cultivator's eyes were complex. He paused for a moment before saying: “It’s the former Grand Preceptor… Fu Baosong.”
"Fu Baosong!" Wei Wuyi's sword eyebrows shot up.
That's a rather surprising answer.
He wished for a wife who was as proud and lofty as he, someone worthy of his attention in the whole state. Fu Baisong, hailing from the prestigious city of Wangjiang, could be counted among those few.
This person was loyal, honest, righteous, and steadfast. They were also incorruptible and kept to high moral standards. They had a very good reputation both in the court and among the people. They were also once a highly valued talent by Du Ruhui.
The most important point is that—regarding the Qiming New Deal, Fu Bosheng initially agreed to the reform but only to a part of it. In the second year, he believed that the reform was impractical and opposed it.
Now that the new policies have been abolished and the few individuals who spearheaded them have left the country, it should be Fu Bosheng's time to rise.
How could he have been beheaded
A cultivator from the Bureau of Criminal Justice replied: “Fu Huai-song colluded with foreign enemies, undermined the national order, engaged in corruption and bribery, exploited the common people, formed cliques to exclude others—”
"Since you recognize me," I said, looking at him, "say something useful."
The criminal justice officer gritted his teeth and finally said: "The Chancellor has retired, the General has resigned, and the Water Master has abdicated. The New Dawn Policies have been completely abolished. Fu Baosong firmly opposed this in court, arguing that it was wrong to entirely deny the reforms. He claimed that although the New Dawn Party had failed politically, it had made significant contributions to the people's livelihood, and the merits and demerits of the New Dawn Policies should be divided into six parts. Their contributions to the country should not be completely erased. The Elders Council requested him several times to apologize and recant, but he refused… He was executed as the mastermind behind the New Dawn Atrocities."
At this moment, I am speechless and at a loss for words.
Political struggles are ruthless, with life and death being commonplace. But the current situation is rather absurd.
The true person who orchestrated the Enlightened New Policies escaped the country unscathed because of their relationship with Jiang Wang. Jiang Wang himself didn't even know about this—during this time, he went to seek out trouble for the True Demons in the Demon Clan and was unable to be contacted through the Illusory Realm of Emptiness. That's why I, Zhu Wei, personally flew over.
But a truly independent-minded, always sober and self-controlled, eternally principled guardian of the nation was instead publicly executed.
At first, he discussed Zhuang Guo's national policies with Jiang Wang. Jiang Wang praised Fu Bao Song incessantly, believing that the post of guardian was indeed suitable for him and well reflected his value. He agreed wholeheartedly.
Now things are different and people have changed.
People like Fu Baosong are naturally not easy to get close to. But even when someone like him dies, someone like me, who is usually above others, can't help but feel a sense of sorrow.
“Greetings, Lord” Seeing Zhu Wei remain silent for a long time, the cultivator from the Criminal Justice Department whispered softly.
"I have returned to myself," Wei said, "and I am no longer the Duke of Zhuang. Please do not address me as such."
The Imperial Censor Daoist said, "In my heart, you will always be the nation's pride. Back then, at the Three Kingdoms Summit -"
This is just a placeholder.
"Alright, alright, let's not dwell on the past. I should be going now." Zhu Wei thought for a moment, then added, "If you have the chance, you should go too."
All that is past is gone.
The law enforcement cultivator raised his head, but the proud figure of Zhu Wei was already gone.
He turned around just as the bustling crowd poured out of the vegetable market where heads were being chopped off, each one looking cheerful and victorious.
They cheered, they laughed, they were ecstatic.
The traitor has been eliminated!
“Hahaha, I knew Fu Baosong wasn't a good person, always putting on airs!”
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
He even used to steal needles from his neighbor's house when he was a child. Now he claims to be a virtuous man. Isn't that funny
"Huh Is there such a thing Any evidence"
"There's no evidence for this kind of thing, it's been years. But my friend said it, could he be lying"
"You wouldn't believe it! He really puts on a good show in everyday life!"
"The thief is dead today, and the world is saved!"
Of course, some people also grieve for Fu Baosong, after all, he has done a lot of practical things over the years. But those who grieve for him all hide at home and dare not show it.
Looking at the surging crowd rushing towards him, this ordinary Jixing Si cultivator suddenly felt a chill and tightened his official robes.
In the spring of 1932, things were particularly difficult for Vietnam.
...Yin Xiang Gaozheng died on the Qian Tang River dike, not even leaving behind a corpse.

Although the hidden phase has long since stopped concerning himself with state affairs, although the current ruler has recently been diligently inspecting various administrative districts, although the court and officials of Yue are all working hard to appease the people, although the country has reduced taxes and issued subsidies...
People still feel a sense of disorientation and loss.
The broken old bones, were the backbone of Yue.

Yu Baihua returned to her home country in this atmosphere of panic and fear.
Today's Langya City is still like it used to be.
Ever since Ge Fei went mad, ever since Bai Yu returned to visit once, the city of Langya has subtly reverted to its former state — the old days when the Bai family held sway.
Bai Yu's flaw is such a clever person, seeing the proud Bai family children on the street, she frowned. But she didn't say anything, and went back to the old house alone.
He received a letter from his mother, which simply read, "Nian'er, come home quickly." He immediately put down the ledger at Baiyu Jing Restaurant and returned home from afar.
As I stepped into the hall, I saw my mother come out to greet me. Her eyes truly conveyed her apology.
“My son. The imperial court invited your mother to a banquet a few days ago, and the next day the prime minister came calling... After all, your mother is related to the imperial family by blood.”
Bai Yu Xia smiled and took her mother's hand: "My son also misses you. Seeing that your complexion is good, my son is very happy."
He sat down and smiled, asking, "When is the Grand Minister planning to visit today"
Wénjuān smiled and gave him a playful tap: “You say you have no resentment in your heart How can the prime minister be so easily swayed”
As soon as the words left his mouth, a doorman came in and announced: "The Prime Minister is here to visit!"
