The war at Jinhe Pass ended quickly. Lu Lang had no intention of resisting. Seeing that there was no hope of defending the city, he surrendered within a few days.
"I have heard about General Lu's reputation for a long time. I have been looking forward to it day and night. Finally, I hope that General Lu will come to our Ning family army." Ning Zhaohui personally greeted Lu Lang in front of the formation, with a smile on his face and his words Zhong is also full of enthusiasm and humility.
"How could it be possible?" How dare Lu Lang take his words seriously, "Chief Ning's plan is so clever and so unpredictable that my city cannot be defended even if it wants to be defended."
In fact, he was a little uncomfortable when he was defeated by Ning Zhaohui in this way at first, but maybe he was reaching out to avoid hitting the smiling man. When he saw Ning Zhaohui's attitude today, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. The discomfort also dissipated.
After all, a soldier never tires of deceit, and the opponent is simply more skilled than him. If he is still angry about this, wouldn’t he be a loser?
"I really don't dare to say that as General Lu." Ning Zhao smiled back and shook his head, "The siege plan was all done by an expert under my command. I just took the photos. That's all."
"A master?" Lu Lang became interested, "I wonder if Chief Ning can introduce him to me if he has time?"
The Ning family has a strong army. He has retreated from the siege of Anzhou by the imperial court. He is a rising star in these troubled times. If there is still such an expert in charge, he may really be able to compete in the Central Plains. The leader Ning in front of him has a bright future.
"Why wait in vain? If the general wants to see you, I can take him there right away." Ning Zhaohui said immediately.
Yun Ziyi had told him earlier that he wanted to meet General Lu, and now that he had taken the initiative to mention it, he naturally agreed.
Lu Lang nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Then Chief Lao Ning will lead the way."
When Ning Zhaohui brought Lu Lang to Yun Ziyi, Ji Lan was there Coax him to take medicine.
"Isn't it said that this tonic can be effective even if you drink it every other day?" Yun Ziyi looked at the dark concoction in front of him, his eyebrows tangled together, "I just drank it yesterday, today It’s okay if you don’t drink it.”
It’s not that he is ignorant, it’s just that the medicine is so bitter that it made him cry when he drank it for the first time. Now he drinks it every other day. Reluctantly, I might as well kill him if I drink it every day.
"How can drinking it every other day be as effective as drinking it once a day?" Ji Lan was a general who killed many people outside, but when he was in front of Yun Ziyi, he was extra gentle and patient, coaxing him softly, "The doctor said "My benefactor's physical condition is probably not enough to rely on medicated food alone. This tonic cannot be stopped."
Yun Ziyi took the medicine bowl, but couldn't help but struggled again: "It's 30% of the medicine." It's poisonous. It's not necessarily good to drink too much, right?"
"I asked the doctor if this medicine is okay." Ji Lan immediately stopped him.
"That's it." Yun Ziyi sighed, seeing that he could not escape this disaster, he closed his eyes, picked up the bowl and drank it in one breath.
HimI also understand pharmacology and know why this medicine is so bitter, but the bitterest herbs are the most symptomatic, and I can't find a suitable replacement, so I have to endure it.
As soon as Yun Ziyi finished drinking the medicine, Ji Lan stuffed the candied fruit he had prepared into his mouth.
"How is it? Is it still painful?" Ji Lan felt heartbroken when he saw how difficult it was for Yun Ziyi to drink medicine every day. He tried every means to make him feel better all day long.
In fact, the sweet and sour taste of the candied fruit combined with the bitter taste of the decoction was a bit weird at first, but soon the bitter taste was washed away by the sweet and sour taste, and people felt much better.
"Much better." Yun Ziyi's eyes turned red from the pain of the soup, but he still smiled and nodded, "Thank you."
"Sir, Is it convenient to come in now?" Ning Zhao asked outside the camp.
Lu Lang listened to the conversation in the camp. Although he didn't know which voice belonged to the master he wanted to see, he still felt that he couldn't place it.

It was clear that one person was persuading another person to take medicine. It was a normal conversation, but he felt that everything was weird.
"Convenient." Yun Ziyi responded.
Ji Lan had no reaction to this and just kept staring at Yun Ziyi. After a while, he picked up the silk handkerchief and wiped some of the medicine stains on his lips.
Yun Ziyi felt a little embarrassed after being taken care of by him. He subconsciously touched the tip of his nose and said again: "Thank you."
"Why do my benefactors always thank me?" Ji Lan curled his lips and said, "I told you that I take care of my benefactor willingly."
"General Ji." Lu Lang walked in following Ning Zhaohui, recognized Ji Lan at a glance, and then looked at him The person sitting next to him said, "This must be the master that Chief Ning calls him, right?"
Seeing a stranger coming in, Yun Ziyi hurriedly stood up to greet him: "I don't dare to be a master. Is this General Lu?"
"Exactly." Lu Lang hurriedly bowed his hands and looked at Yun Ziyi, "I've met Mr. Lu Lang."
Although I had just guessed that this expert might be in poor health, I didn't expect that he was so thin and his skin was as pale as paper.
He has such a good appearance again, and his clear and delicate eyebrows are like ink paintings. People can't take their eyes away from him at the first sight, but they can't help but feel worried about him.
"I'm Yun Ziyi." Yun Ziyi also returned the salute, "I have admired the general's name for a long time."
"I should have admired him for a long time." Lu Lang said with a wry smile, "I heard The Ning family's attack on the city was done by my husband, so I really have no power to fight back."
"It's just a fluke, not worth mentioning," Yun Ziyi naturally said. Be humble.
"Why are you standing and talking? Mr. is not in good health. Please sit down quickly." Ning Zhao gestured back.Ji Lan helped Yun Ziyi sit down and smiled at Lu Lang, "General Lu, please take a seat soon."
Usually in this situation, guests will be asked to sit down first, although Lu Lang didn't care. , but looking at what Ning Zhaohui revealed inadvertently, it is not difficult to see how much he cares and relies on Mr. Yun.
However, Mr. Yun's body does look extremely weak, so he should be more concerned about it.
"The night attack on the day when our army first camped outside the pass was also General Lu's idea." Yun Ziyi asked with a smile, "At that time, I admired the general's intelligence very much and always thought about it. I finally got my wish after meeting the general."
"Didn't the night attack that day also end in failure?" Lu Lang shook his head and sighed, and suddenly remembered something. "I heard that a sharpshooter single-handedly turned the tide of the war that day. I wonder if that sharpshooter is also in the army now?"
Ji Lan is not very sociable, and his attention is all on Yun Ziyi. When I heard what he said, I couldn't help but talk to him: "Far away in the horizon, close in front of me, the marksman that day was also Mr. Yun. If it weren't for Mr. Yun, I would have died in the chaos."
"Seriously?" Lu Lang was really surprised. He really didn't expect this frail gentleman to have such ability. Then he smiled bitterly and sighed, "I was surprised twice. I fell into the hands of Mr. Yun, and I really lost unjustly."
"It's just a little trick, nothing worth mentioning." Yun Ziyi lowered his head and coughed slightly.
Ning Zhaohui immediately looked at Yun Ziyi's ears, and sure enough, he saw that the tips of his ears between his black hair were red again.
My husband is really shy so easily, and when he feels embarrassed, he will subconsciously touch the tip of his nose or lower his head and cough lightly, and his ears will immediately turn red.
What that guy Xie Minghe said is indeed correct.
