Yulan let out an "ah" sound.

"Later we repelled the enemy, and when I returned to my tent, I found a big yellow dog owned by the orderer dead in my tent!"

Yulan said, "Is it because of eating poisonous snacks?"

Ye Yichen nodded, "I arrested the boy and tortured him. In the end, he couldn't bear the punishment, so he was recruited. Someone gave him five hundred taels of gold. He was greedy for money, so he poisoned my food.

!" Ye Yichen raised his head, looked at Chengchen on the roof, and said in a bitter voice: "...I was only thirteen years old that year!"

Although Yulan was angry with him, she still felt sad for him. Ye Yichen didn't know how much suffering and struggle he had gone through before he could achieve the glorious status and prominent position he has today.

Ye Yichen said: "I have never understood. That young man served me for seven or eight years. I treated him well. I promoted his family and even saved his life. Because of this, I felt relieved to call him here."

I was waiting by my side, but even so, he still betrayed me."

Yulan said, "That's because there are people who can give him a better future and more benefits... People are like this sometimes! Some people are righteous and dishonest, while others are despicable and shameless! Some people repay kindness with kindness, and some people repay kindness with kindness.

!”

Ye Yichen sighed: "I was thinking at that time, is the human heart really so unfathomable? When that boy followed me, he was definitely very loyal to me at the beginning. I am very sure of this, but

Later, why could I not stand the temptation of gambling things like gold and silver and changed?... Since then, I have understood the teachings of my father and mother, and I never dare to trust others easily again!"

Yulan's heart trembled slightly, Ye Yichen was really pitiful.

"I can't tell you how much this incident affected me, but another incident, another person's betrayal, completely changed me."

"I was sixteen years old that year. I was proficient in bow and horse. I had been in the frontier army for so many years and fought many battles. Gradually I became somewhat famous. I had a good brother who was also on the frontier.

He grew up in the army. He and I each led a sentinel horse, competed with each other, killed the enemy together, and cherished each other. He admired me and I admired him. Although he was born in a humble background, he had a good character and treated others well.

Everything was excellent. One year there was a sudden drought and an army of 20,000 invaded. I was trapped in Jimingyi outside Datong City, with only 3,000 soldiers under my command. The general army of Datong obeyed the order of Emperor Taizong and refused to move out.

Soldiers came to the rescue one by one. He led 6,000 soldiers and horses, and set out from Sha Town against the orders from above. He led away most of the enemy troops. I took the opportunity to break out and finally escaped and ascended to heaven."

Yulan felt a little breathless when he heard it: "Such a loyal and courageous person betrayed you?"

Ye Yichen's eyes were blankly in a daze: "I can't believe now why such a person would do something betrayal! After the battle at Jimingyi, I regarded him as a life-and-death friend and a lifelong confidant.

We even learned from Liu, Guan, and Zhang Taoyuan, who made the three sworn bonds of friendship, gathering soil to make incense, sharing blood to form an alliance, and forming a sworn alliance with the Golden Orchid. Who knew, this good brother of mine..."

Yulan asked: "Then what happened?"

Ye Yichen breathed a sigh of relief, "The next year, he falsely spread the news, saying that the Hutt tribe, a powerful clan on the Oron River, was on an expedition to the northeast. If we could attack their camp on the Oron River at night in the snow, we would definitely be able to establish a stronghold.

Unparalleled feats. I had great trust in him, so I took the risk with 5,000 men.

On a snowy and starry night, I rushed to the Hehut camp. What awaited me was not an empty camp with only the old, weak, women and children left, but tens of thousands of grassland coalition troops waiting for me. That time was the only defeat in my life.

Not one out of ten of the five thousand troops came back alive..."

Yulan really couldn't understand: "Why did he..."

Ye Yichen said: "I can't understand why he planned to harm me like this! After that battle, Emperor Taizong ordered me to be punished with eighty sticks and removed from all positions! I started from a small soldier again! But he continued to fight for no reason.

Move up two ranks and become deputy commander-in-chief of Xuanhua!"

"I went to see him in his military camp, but he refused to see me! This incident became a mystery in my mind. It wasn't until a year later that the unexpected coalition forces invaded in large numbers, and our army suffered successive defeats. In order to cover the main force of the army, he retreated

, led the army to defeat, captured every soldier, and finally committed suicide to sacrifice his country!"

A traitor actually had a heroic ending! Yulan couldn't understand it.

Ye Yichen said: "After he died, a surviving soldier next to him came to me and handed me a letter from him. Only then did I know the cause and effect. He was born in a small family in the northwest, and his father died early.

, only he and his mother lived together."

"Because their house is a side branch of the family, they have been bullied by the clan members since they were young. Not only were the family properties taken away by the clan members, but even after his mother died, she was not allowed to be buried in the ancestral grave because she had no money to support the clan leader. He spent his whole life

My biggest wish is to stand out and take revenge on those wolf-hearted dogs.

He is a member of Lung's tribe. But he has struggled in the military camp for so long, and because he has no backstage, he has never been able to stand out. At this time, Emperor Taizong sent a servant to hint to him that as long as he cooperates obediently and performs a play, he will lure me into the whole set.

If the matter is done, once I die, I will make him a general soldier!"

"There is someone in the court who is good at being an official! With his connections and resources, it would be good if he could be a general in his lifetime, let alone a general in the army! He told me in the letter that he was also very contradictory. On one hand, he was prospering, and on the other hand, he was a general.

Revenge was about to be avenged; on the other hand, there were brothers and friends who cherished each other. He hesitated for several days before finally agreeing to the chamberlain! Unfortunately, in the end, I was not lucky enough to escape, and he, the commander-in-chief, became

Deputy Commander-in-Chief."

Yu Lan was a little divergent in his thinking: "What about his hatred?"

Ye Yichen was stunned. He didn't expect that she would go there. "He didn't write about the revenge in the letter. I only found out after I sent someone to investigate. He bribed the local government and brought the clan leader and his family to justice."

He and other people who had harmed him all had their families destroyed!"

It can be regarded as repaying an injustice for an injustice.

Ye Yichen brought the topic back to the right track: "After he got his revenge, he kept feeling uneasy thinking about the conspiracy to frame me. He also felt that he did not get this deputy general soldier by virtue of his military exploits, but by betraying his brothers and friends. Sitting here

He also felt ashamed of himself in this position, so he voluntarily resigned from the rear in that battle. He said that his death was a benevolence, and he got what he wanted!"

Yulan commented: "This person is not a completely bad person!"

Ye Yichen said: "Yes! After reading his letter, I understood what he did, but I can't forgive him." His voice seemed very hollow: "The five thousand elite cavalry on the banks of the Orun River are my thousand.

All those who have been trained with so much hard work were ruined because of one lie! Who should appeal to these five thousand heroes for their grievances!"

Yu Lan also sighed.

"After experiencing so many lies and betrayals! Since then, I can no longer believe in such things as feelings. Because I have found that interests are more practical than feelings than morality, and can win people's hearts better. No matter who it is, I

I can’t completely believe it. I am used to leaving a leeway in everything I do..."

"I always thought you were the only exception, because you have a noble character, and because your interests are completely consistent with mine. I once felt happy because I found someone I could trust completely. But that day when I

When I saw Wen'er lying dying in front of me, I still doubted it..."
