Li Yi has been intensifying the training of the Iron Brigade, living and eating with the soldiers of the Iron Brigade, and training together, which earned him the deep respect of the soldiers.

But the teacher sent people to look for him, so Li Yi interrupted his actions to gather military morale and took the time to return to Anxin City.

When he arrived at the door, Li Yi got off his horse, handed the reins in his hand to Zhu Qilong, and walked quickly into Li's house.

In the lobby, Mrs. Wang is meeting Uncle Ma.

Seeing Li Yi dressed in smart clothes enter the hall, Uncle Ma quickly stood up.

Li Yi smiled and cupped his hands and said: "Uncle Ma, you came to me in such a hurry. Did something happen?"

Uncle Ma nodded sadly and said: "Mr. Wang is seriously ill and I'm afraid he will die soon. After I went to see him yesterday, Mr. Wang told me that he really wanted to see you again. That's why I was so anxious to send me.

Come."

Hearing that Mr. Wang was seriously ill, Li Yi was stunned and asked anxiously: "How could this happen?"

Uncle Ma shook his head silently and sighed.

Although he didn't hear the answer, Li Yi understood in his heart.

Wang is already old, and now it is the twelfth lunar month of winter, which is the most difficult time for the old man.

Thinking of this, Li Yi said to the superior Wang: "Mother, Mr. Wang has taught me for several months. Although he does not have the status of teacher and student, Mr. Wang is already my teacher."

Mrs. Wang nodded lightly, looked at Li Yi with relief and said: "Shitou, you are a sensible child. Since Mr. Wang is seriously ill, you should seize the time to see him, and by the way, bring the century-old ginseng you brought back from Liaodong."

superior."

This century-old ginseng was brought back by Li Yi from Liaodong specifically to recuperate Wang's health. Now Wang takes it out directly, which shows her respect for Mr. Wang.

Li Yi was moved and rushed to Gaoyang City with his ginseng and Uncle Ma.

When he arrived in Gaoyang City, Li Yi handed the ginseng in his hand to Mr. Wang's family and asked them to nurse him back to health, and then he went into Mr. Wang's bedroom.

Opening the door curtain, a strong smell of medicine hit his face. Li Yi frowned slightly and took two steps forward. He saw an old man with a skinny face and sunken eyes lying on the bed.

Looking at Mr. Wang's appearance, Li Yi could not relate to the solemn and strict teacher back then.

Over the years, sometimes many people come and go in just one year. Those who come are accepted, but those who leave cannot be retained.

Li Yi stepped forward, looked at Mr. Wang, and whispered softly: "Teacher, I'm here."

Perhaps sensing something, Wang Lao opened his eyes weakly and turned his head slightly to look at Li Yi beside the bed.

After coughing twice, Mr. Wang said softly: "Zizheng, you are here."

Li Yi nodded, "Teacher, since you are seriously ill, why didn't you let the students come to visit you earlier?"

The corners of Mr. Wang's mouth were slightly raised, as if he was trying to smile.

"Zizheng, over the years you have fought in Liaodong and Anbei, and you have been promoted to a high official in the imperial court, but were soon dismissed. I know it very well. Life, old age, illness and death are not terrible. I have children to take care of me, and I don't need you to serve me."

By the way, the teacher is very happy that you are working hard to do your own thing and that you can have your own ambitions."

Li Yi's eyes were moist and he couldn't help but whisper: "Teacher."

He did not expect that Mr. Wang would actually say such heartfelt words to him.

I remember that when I was studying in the Sun clan, I was constantly provoked by Zhang Sicheng and others, and I often did things out of line, which made Mr. Wang very disgusted. Later, because of Master Sun's persuasion and my own excuse, Mr. Wang took me in and explained to me

The study of imperial examinations. Time flies, and now I have achieved the title of imperial examination, but Mr. Wang, an old Confucian scholar who I originally thought was old-fashioned, has reached the end of his life.

The growth of a generation also represents the demise of a generation.

Mr. Wang's cloudy eyes looked at Li Yi, and he felt deeply relieved when he saw the brave and handsome young man in front of him.

When I agreed to teach him, it was because I listened to his plea for help for the people and deeply felt his innocence that I helped him pass the government and college examinations.

Now that Anxin is prosperous and happy, and his influence is growing, he feels that his original choice was the right one.

Being able to cultivate such a talent for the people and the country, who is both civil and military, for the Ming Dynasty and the world, is what Mr. Wang is most proud of in his life.

Walking out of the Wang family compound, Li Yi wiped the moisture from the corners of his eyes. He could see that Mr. Wang was seriously ill this time and would die soon.

Zhu Qilong stepped forward, led the horse and waited quietly.

Li Yi came over, took the reins, restored his original indifferent expression, and said: "Go to Sun Mansion."

Now that he has arrived in Gaoyang, Li Yi naturally wants to pay a visit to his teacher.

Entering the Sun Mansion, Uncle Ma took Li Yi into the study.

The door was closed. Sun Chengzong looked at Li Yi, pointed to the round stool next to him and said, "Sit down."

As soon as Li Yi sat down, Sun Chengzong asked: "Have you visited Mr. Wang?"

Li Yi nodded and said: "I've seen it. Mr. Wang's blood is weak. I'm afraid it won't be difficult to get through this."

Sun Chengzong sighed, walked to Li Yi and said: "Old Wang is old. Even if he passes away, he will die at a high age and die in good condition. You don't have to be too sad."

Li Yi nodded, "Teacher, I understand this."

"I understand your character. You value love and justice, but you are not a sad person."

As Sun Chengzong spoke, he added some charcoal to the stove. Li Yi stepped forward, took the charcoal from Sun Chengzong's hand, and slowly threw it into the stove, making the study become warmer.

Sun Chengzong patted the charcoal ash on his hands and said: "You should already know that the Donglu took advantage of the road to Harashen to attack the Ming Dynasty from the north."

Li Yi nodded and said: "The students know. Moreover, Donglu has defeated the old general Zhao Shujiao and captured Zunhua. The students were very surprised that Zunhua City fell so easily."

Sun Chengzong smiled coldly, handed the newspaper in his hand to Li Yi, and said with a hint of anger in his voice: "Wang Guoyan's younger brother Wang Laitong abandoned the city and fled, which caused Zunhua City and Santun Camp to fall one after another. As for the
