Shi Chen Wen still impartially executed the law as usual. Since they knew that it was against the law, they were punished to fight a hundred times and were chased out of the army camp.
As for the young kitchen man, because he was not from the army, he was only a chef hired by the Dreamy Cloud City temporarily. He did not return to the army, but the young kitchen man spread rumors in the army and was sentenced to half a month's imprisonment.
Shi Chen Wen purposely read out the rules of punishment to everyone on a sunny afternoon and personally carried out the military duties. The reason for this was to calm the hearts of the soldiers and to kill the chickens for the monkeys to see.
The military camp was not comparable to the streets and alleys in the market. If someone was willing to instigate the army, it would certainly cause chaos within the army. At this time, the enemy would attack and destroy the entire army.
Shi Chen Wen would definitely not let such a thing happen.
The army once again became a pool of clear and murky water. No one dared to discuss the commander in chief in private anymore, and each returned to their own positions, but they kept quiet about this matter. Although they were not curious about it, they still had their doubts, but with the previous example, they could only shut their mouths obediently.
Shi Chen Wen had reorganized the army camp once again, and the way they combined their power had to be admired by everyone. After hearing what was said, Wei Guogong sighed, thinking that he had a good general with him, and would not have any regrets in her life.
A few days later, Shi Chen Wen deliberately called back the young kitchen man's personal follower from the shadows. "Is there anything abnormal about her?"
The servant hid in the darkness, his voice cold, "General, this person has no strange movements, it's just …"
Shi Chen Wen heard the other party's doubt, and immediately asked: "But what about it?"
"It's just that this person seems to be especially used to using all kinds of spices when cooking. In fact, it's not accurate because every time she cooks, she likes to go to the back mountain and find a plant. I've also picked one of this plant before and showed it to an experienced doctor, saying it's just a type of grass, but it's useless."
"No poison?"
"No poison."
Shi Chen Wen's sensitive nerves allowed him to feel that this matter was not as simple as the other party had said. Only after filtering the faces of everyone in the army and the injuries of the military doctors one by one and discovering that there was no food poisoning or special illness did the doubt in his heart disappear.
"Continue to monitor her. If there are any problems, report to my tent immediately," After Shi Chen Wen's cold and detached voice fell, only the sound of leaves being brushed past could be heard behind him. After a while, everything returned to silence of the night.
A few days later, Wei Guogong, who had rested in the middle of the main camp for a few days, finally showed up in front of everyone. When everyone was immersed in the excitement of the commander's recovery, unimaginably grievous news came one step at a time.
Because of the previous battle in the water, the Wei Guogong was forced to jump into the water with Shi Chen Wen to escape from the enemy camp's encirclement. The old man did not want Shi Chen Wen, who was a youth who was filled with vigor, to be unable to follow his will after entering the water.
After rushing back to the camp, he became seriously ill and handed over the military power in his hands to Shi Chen Wen for the time being.
For a long time in a row, the Wei Guogong was unable to recover from the betrayal of his closest senior brother.
Today, when everyone saw their marshal finally pull himself together, most of them let out a long sigh of relief and put down a heavy stone.
"I have heard about everything that happened in the military camp when the Japanese officials were not feeling well. It is likely that all the soldiers are very curious about the man dressed in black who appeared in the enemy camp above the water station."
Wei Guogong heard from the servants that during these few days, the people in the army were restless. Some people with ill intentions snuck into the army and spread rumors, and Shi Chen Wen specifically reported on it.
Ever since he lost the water battle and returned, Wei Guogong could feel that the citizens of the Dreamy Cloud City, as well as the soldiers in his own army camp, were suspicious of him, so he was not frustrated at all, nor was he angry at all. After this battle, he was already prepared to be guessed at by the masses.
And the reason why they gathered all the soldiers on the drill grounds today was because they wanted to make the plan that they and that person had previously set public. Although some people would guess that it was a trick, it was still better than the situation they were in with this shield in front of them.
Everyone sighed. Although there were still some who didn't understand the logic behind it, most of the soldiers could understand that this old duke, who was still killing enemies in front of the army despite his advanced age, would definitely not be a traitor.
All the soldiers in the army calmed down. The atmosphere in the camp was much better than a few days ago, and Shi Chen Wen's lessons for the past few days were also becoming more strict.
The weather of the Dreamy Cloud City was always sunny and gloomy. The many days of gloom and gloom had also been dispersed quite a bit by today's holiday.
Today was the Flower Lantern Festival, which had been passed down in the Dreamy Cloud City for a thousand years. Different from the traditional Flower Lantern Festival in the capital, the Flower Lantern Festival in the Dreamy Cloud City was more beautiful and complex, colorful, and every day, the people in the city would wear gorgeous clothes and bring their own made lanterns to the upper reaches of the Yongan River, passing through a branch of the Dreamy Cloud City, even if there was a clear Yunmeng River in the city.
When the Yunmeng River flowed out of the city and merged into the Yongan River, the various types of fish could be seen in the depths of the river. Occasionally, one could reach out and grab some prawns or small crabs from the river.
Yun Meng He passed through the entire Dreamy Cloud City. During the Flower Lantern Festival, everyone in the city, from the oldest old people to the children, would bring a flower lantern to worship beside the Dreamy Cloud River.
It was said that Dreamy Cloud City's Lantern Festival was given to his by the Ancient Flower God, and that he unintentionally threw the Divine Flower in his hands off the Earth. Coincidentally, the Divine Flower fell into the Dreamy Cloud City and into this Dreamy Cloud River.
From then on, every time this day came, all the citizens of the Dreamy Cloud City would make a special trip to the Dreamy Cloud River to offer sacrifices and pray for blessings.
The young men and women in the city who had yet to marry were allowed to match each other after paying their respects to the Dreamy Cloud River.
In the early morning, the Wei Guogong had already sent Shi Chen Wen to inform the army that during the Flower Lantern Festival, our troops would follow the customs of the countryside, thus, other than the soldiers who must stay to guard the camp.
The other soldiers could go to the city for a stroll and report back to the military camp at the age of seven.
