Chapter 252: Past

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Only when his three younger siblings called Shi Xiao did he return to his senses. He wasn’t in the mood to eat dinner, so he returned to his room.

The mouthful of blood that Yuan Shu spat out was a memory that had accumulated in her heart for many years. This mouthful of blood seemed to have drained all her energy, and she felt even more exhausted than after fighting a tough battle.

She sank into the soft mattress and stared at the ceiling in a daze. She had never felt such complicated emotions before.

As past memories swept over her like an avalanche, Yuan Shu was thinking about whether it was better to remember these memories or to forget them forever.

Just as she had guessed, she did know Jiang Chen, a long time ago, in the era she came from. At that time, he didn’t go by the name Jiang Chen, but Mu Zhou…

And the past between her and Mu Zhou was intertwined and complicated.

Their past was almost identical to the plot of the television drama that Jiang Chen had specifically arranged. It was a memoir of their past.

Mu Zhou was a child picked up by the army on the battlefield. There were many such children in the military camp. In order to let them learn, Yuan Shu’s father, General Yuan, founded a school for them.

When she was young, Yuan Shu was outgoing and active. She was a tomboy and was unwilling to study with young ladies in the government school. Helpless, General Yuan could only let Yuan Shu dress up as a man and arrange for her to study in the military school. That was how she got to know Mu Zhou.

Mu Zhou hit it off with Yuan Shu due to his smart and mischievous personality.

In order to let Mu Zhou learn martial arts better, Yuan Shu persuaded General Yuan to take Mu Zhou in as his disciple and teach all the martial arts skills he had learned in his life to Mu Zhou and Yuan Shu.

The two of them were very mischievous, so they became the teachers’ biggest headache. However, what really gave the teachers a headache wasn’t that the two of them didn’t study, but that the two of them studied too much!

The two of them flipped through martial arts books in private and exchanged their insights.

Their thoughts were too groundbreaking, so much so that they couldn’t accept the teacher’s old-fashioned thoughts at all. They would openly refute the teacher in class and even spend the entire class arguing with the teacher to prove that their thoughts were right and that the teacher’s thoughts were too conservative.

Because of this, seven to eight teachers left in anger. There were no longer any teachers near the military camp who dared to teach in the military school.

General Yuan was very helpless. Looking at his beloved daughter and proudest disciple, he felt exasperated.

Yuan Shu didn’t feel that she had done anything wrong. She even said proudly, “Father, we have learned a lot. The school teacher can’t teach us any more things! We don’t need a teacher.”

General Yuan was helpless. “1 should have let you go to the school in the palace to learn the rules back then. You don’t act like a noble lady at all. Forget it. Since you don’t want to study in school, follow me to learn array formations.”

Eagerness flashed across their eyes.

Mu Zhou asked, “Master, what is an array?”

General Yuan explained, “When fighting enemies, you can’t charge blindly with a saber and spear. A general has to learn to arrange the troops at the right time and place before commanding everyone to fight in order to win. Therefore, the battle between the two armies is not only about military strength, but also the strategies of the commander. This is also why soldiers are easy to obtain, but generals are hard to find.”

After hearing this, Mu Zhou made a bold statement. “In the future, I want to become a general and fight on the battlefield like Master!”

Yuan Shu wasn’t to be outdone. “Then I want to be a general who is even more powerful than you!”

Yuan Shu and Mu Zhou were both very smart. Coupled with the fact that they were competing against each other, they learned very diligently.

The two of them competed to see who was better at mastering the military strategies. In just a year, they became familiar with all the military strategies.

Seeing that the two of them were learning so quickly, General Yuan knew that these two people might be natural military geniuses. He specifically made a sand table for them so that they could also fight in actual combat. They would practice on the sand table and put what they had learned into practice.

Yuan Shu and Mu Zhou often fought against each other. In the end, the two of them were often tied, so fighting on the sand table became a new hobby for the two of them..
