Chapter 57: I'm Going to the Army
There was a sudden whisper in the study, and several people gathered together to tell Zhao Pu about the layout of Jin and Xia in the past few years. Let him have a general understanding, so as to prepare a sufficient supply of food and grass for the war that will be launched, which is also one of the reasons why Zhao Lingyun transferred him back, after all, the war is about money and food, so the position of Hubu Shangshu must be a person he can trust.
The eunuch guarding outside the palace gate was Zhao Lingyun, who had been following Zhao Lingyun before he succeeded to the throne, and he was also very familiar with this Yue Qianming, and he was no stranger to the whispers in the room and the laughter that broke out from time to time, and he hadn't seen him so happy for a long time.
Zhao Qin'er and the others stayed in the palace for a while, and then left the Dexian Palace. On the way back to Fengluo Villa, there was silence in the car, and Jiang Chen and Zhao Qin'er were thinking about something that would seem insignificant in the future. Jiang Chen hesitated for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to speak: "Mother, I want to join the army." Zhao Qin'er didn't know what to think of anymore and replied casually: "Oh, you can." Jiang Chen's face showed joy, he didn't expect his mother to promise so happily, and began to fantasize about the military life from now on. But Zhao Qin'er came to her senses and asked in surprise: "What? You want to join the army, no." Zhao Qin'er knew that a full-scale war was about to break out in the three kingdoms of Jin, Xia, and Zhao, and her eldest brother had been laying out all these years, and it would soon be fully launched. At this time, Jiang Chen proposed to join the army, and it doesn't matter who you are on the battlefield, every victory is exchanged for the blood and sacrifice of tens of millions of soldiers.
Jiang Chen originally agreed without thinking about it when he saw his mother, and he was overjoyed for a while, but when he saw that Zhao Qin'er disagreed in an instant, he said angrily: "But you obviously agreed just now!" Zhao Qin'er also said with a little anger: "You are only fifteen years old, what army are you in, there are no eyes on the battlefield, what do you think, I can't say no, I don't have to discuss." Jiang Chen snorted lightly, didn't know how to persuade his mother for a while, and sat on the side sulking. Zhao Qin'er didn't say anything when she saw Jiang Chen like this, still thinking about the news from Xiangming today, and fell silent in the carriage again.
The same is true in the commander's mansion, when Wei Chide told Xue Dan about going to join the army, Xue Dan thought that Yu Chide was joking, and at first he was kind to persuade him, but Yu Chide has always been stubborn and stubborn, Xue Dan saw that Wei Chide had not listened to persuasion, and he no longer ignored him, and let him make trouble. Xue Dan looked at Wei Chide, who was angry with him on the side, and had to say, "When your father comes back, it's up to him to make the decision." After finishing speaking, he stopped paying attention to Wei Chide and went to his own business.
Zhao Qin'er and Jiang Chen went all the way back to Fengluo Villa, Jiang Chen didn't mention to Zhao Qin'er that he was going to join the army, and went straight to Yue Shutong, wanting Yue Shutong to help persuade his mother to agree. After Zhao Qin'er came back, she didn't make any stops, but hurried towards Longshou Mountain.
In the imperial study of the imperial city, Zhao Lingyun and the others had not dispersed, and the eunuch was still standing outside the store with his eyes closed, only to hear Zhao Pu ask: "Your Majesty, who do you plan to let preside over this meeting of the Three Kingdoms?"
"There is already a suitable candidate, King Jing Zhao Lingwu is the positive, and you are the deputy. This is one of the reasons why you are urgently recruited to return to Beijing. Zhao Lingyun didn't think about it, and said directly.
Zhao Pu wanted to refute, but he saw that Yue Qianming and the three of them all looked like they were taken for granted, although they had doubts in their hearts, they also suppressed the words they were about to say, and instead said: "I just returned to Beijing, and I have never been in contact with these things, so I am afraid that I will not be able to ......do it" Without waiting for Zhao Pu to finish speaking, Qin Kongyu said directly: "Over the years, Qianming and I have had a lot of grievances with Najin and Xia, and it will only be self-defeating, Zhong Ming has not been in contact with these specific affairs for many years. Today, you are the most suitable candidate, or a new face, which makes Najin and Xia confused. ”
Zhao Pu pondered for a while, the current situation is indeed as Qin Kongyu said, and this three-country meeting is also the most important part of Zhao Lingyun's layout, and it may be wrong to hand it over to others, but Zhao Lingwu is right, but Zhao Pu didn't expect it, so he had to ask: "Zhao Lingwu won't be bad, right?" Zhao Lingyun chuckled and said: "The news of the spirit stone deposit this time was leaked by him to the other two countries, and he will only try his best to promote the beneficial part of this meeting to Najin and Xia." ”
Zhao Pu thought about it for a while, but he understood the potential meaning of Zhao Lingyun's words, and without further research, after chatting for a while, several people also dispersed and went to busy their official business. Zhao Pu went straight back to the Dexian Palace, digested the information he received today, and talked with Yue Qianming and a few people today, and he also understood what Zhao Lingyun and the others had planned in the past few years. Although he is only now involved, he is enough to be remembered for eternity, as long as the Zhao Xin Empire exists for one day in the future, his name will definitely be recorded in the annals of Jiunao Prefecture.
On the mountainside of Longshou Mountain, Zhao Qin'er walked in the dense forest of Longshou Mountain with a familiar car, and came to a place that was no different from the rest of the mountain. There are more than 100 stone chambers built here, flowers and plants are flourishing, the terrain is open, and I saw more than 20 young men and girls in white robes cultivating at a platform at the moment, and every move and style is full of murderous aura. I saw that Xiangming was also among them, training together. A man dressed in black was standing in front of these young boys and girls at this moment, pointing at these young people like gold.
Zhao Qin'er approached the man in black and asked directly, "Brother Meng, I heard Xiang Ming say that you are looking for me, what is the matter?" The man in black was Zhao Meng, and he only heard Zhao Meng say: "Today, four more teenagers have advanced to the shadowless level, and they have been sent out and received by the gold group. ”
Zhao Qin'er said: "This is just an ordinary thing, you don't need to convey it in person!" Zhao Meng paused for a moment before he said: "Today, there is news from the Phoenix Weishui Group lurking in the Tianqi Hall of Daying Prefecture that the Tianqi Hall has increased the secret search force for the boy surnamed Jiang again, because a demoted elder of the Tianqi Temple was assigned to the Tianqi Hall in Daying Prefecture, and he wants to use this skill to achieve the goal of returning to the Tianqi Temple. Zhao Qin'er's face was calm and asked, "Is there any other news coming?" Zhao Meng shook his head and didn't speak again.
I only heard Zhao Qin'er say again: "Brother Meng, I transferred you here from the imperial brother three years ago, do you have any complaints?" Zhao Meng still had a black scarf on his face, he couldn't see any expression, and when he heard Zhao Qin'er's question, he didn't respond, and his eyes looked coldly at the young boys and girls who were training, as in the past. Zhao Qin'er was also accustomed to Zhao Meng's habits, and said to herself: "Even if you have any complaints, I don't want to hear it, I just hope that you will forget what you have heard and know today, and don't talk about it to anyone, including the imperial brother, you don't have to come here after today, this place will be taken over by Xiang'er." ”
Zhao Qin'er's expression was solemn, her brows were tightly locked, and her phoenix eyes were majestic. Zhao Meng didn't speak, just nodded, and was about to turn around and leave, only to hear Zhao Qin'er say with a serious expression: "Zhao Meng, you also know my character, and I also know your feelings for my brother, you will not hide anything from him, I believe that you have understood over the years that I built this organization for the Heavenly Apocalypse Palace, but if you inform the imperial brother about this, he will be implicated." This is a bottomless backwater, and I don't want any of my loved ones to be involved, so I hope you will keep your promise and not reveal any information about it. ”
Zhao Meng turned around and stared at Zhao Qin'er's eyes for a while, and Zhao Qin'er's eyes were still flat and natural looking at Zhao Meng. Only then did Zhao Meng speak: "I will keep my promise." The voice was hoarse, and the mouthpiece was as dry as if it hadn't been used for thousands of years. Then he turned around and left, which was arranged by Zhao Qin'er with majestic spiritual power, blocking outsiders from entering the labyrinth illusion here.
After Zhao Qin'er watched Zhao Meng leave, she called Xiangming and told her to be responsible for this place in the future, and she should pass the information directly to herself. Xiangming hesitated slightly, looking at Zhao Qin'er's orphans from all over the Internet over the years, those teenagers had the same life experience as herself. Seeing Zhao Qin'er's serious expression, it was obvious that she attached great importance to this matter, and Xiangming nodded heavily.
Zhao Qin'er and Xiangming discussed again, and when they passed on the information in the future, they paid attention to all the details, and then left here, leaving Xiangming to take care of these teenagers. Zhao Qin'er, who returned to Fengluo Villa, after entering the main hall, saw Yue Shutong drinking tea, and resumed the posture of a child, and asked with a smile: "Uncle Yue, why do you have free time today?
Yue Shutong looked at Zhao Qin'er but didn't see the easy-going expression of the past, and after taking a sip of tea, he looked at Zhao Qin'er who was already sitting next to him seriously and asked, "Qin'er, have you considered Xiao Chen's future?"
Zhao Qin'er heard Yue Shutong ask like this, and instantly understood that Jiang Chen must have asked the old man to persuade him to agree to him to join the army, and couldn't help frowning. Then he asked with a smile: "Uncle Yue, what benefits did Chen'er promise you?
"Alas!" Yue Shutong sighed, nodded at Zhao Qin'er and said, "You girl, what benefits can he promise me." I just think that the chicks will eventually leave their nests and fly to the sky, and the tiger cubs will eventually roar through the mountains and forests. How long can you keep Xiao Chen?"
After speaking, he took another sip of tea, then got up and walked to the door, turned back and said with a smile: "Qin'er, my father and mother, you should understand with my experience." Leaving the main hall, Zhao Qin'er was left alone to meditate here. Maybe Jiang Chen will leave him after all, but is now the best time? Thinking of the news I got today, the Heavenly Apocalypse Temple has already sent someone to the western border of the mainland to investigate, who knows when it will be exposed, it's good that Chen'er's reputation is not obvious now, but what about the future! Do you really want to let Jiang Chen do nothing for a lifetime?
Zhao Qin'er's thoughts were a mess, cutting constantly, and sorting out was messy. Zhao Qin'er couldn't help but close her eyes, and Jiang Ye's familiar smiling face appeared in her mind, as if telling her that it was okay and everything would be resolved. Zhao Qin'er muttered, "Brother Ye, I'm so tired!", thinking about the tears oozing from the corners of these eyes.
Acacia is the most heartbroken, the Si people have passed away, the living people mourn, the days are as in previous years, and the face is not yesterday. The spring cold penetrates the clothes, the fallen flowers have not returned, the dry mounds are a pile of no one to worship, and the yellow leaves are chaotic.
Zhao Qin'er was falling into her own grief and couldn't extricate herself, when she suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps in the courtyard, and shouted to herself, it was Jiang Chen's voice, Zhao Qin'er hurriedly opened her eyes, waved her sleeves, wiped the tears on her face, picked up the teacup on the table, and pretended to drink tea.
