145: For the official
Da Chu is not without officials who have abandoned military force and followed civil service, but also has a virtuous person, who not only controls military power, but also has a civilian background. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
For example, Wen Tianrui, the previous head of the Wen family.
Vice General Cao has been by Xiao Yingjing's side for many years, and naturally knows that Xiao Yingjing has gone from an ordinary soldier to his current position, and the hardships and difficulties along the way.
However, Xiao Yingjing likes to fight on the battlefield.
He was obsessed with the feeling of boiling blood, and he felt that men should guard the country on the frontier.
Cathay Pacific can be safe.
Now, Xiao Yingjing suddenly chose to stay in the capital, part of the reason is indeed because of the Gu family, and a large part of the reason is because Da Chu is now in turmoil.
Emperor Wan Qi has been addicted to pills since he ascended the throne, and he has also promoted Taoism.
The only famous White Horse Temple in the capital still barely exists because the Queen Mother occasionally goes to eat vegetarian dishes.
If it weren't for the fact that there are many monks in the world, Emperor Wanqi would have already had the intention of slaughtering the disciples of Buddhism.
He, bloodthirsty.
Especially in the past few years, Emperor Wan Qi's suspicion has become more and more serious, and even the virtuous concubine he has loved for many years is difficult to see him.
Xiao Yingjing suddenly understood why the former head of the Bai family would give up his military power a few decades ago, and the Wen family, who had always been loyal to the imperial court for three generations, chose to retire in the second year of Emperor Wanqi's accession to the throne.
They are all smart people, and they clearly know that Da Chu is going to be chaotic.
Xiao Yingjing couldn't understand it before, because he thought that the biggest enemy of Great Chu was Beiyue and Dongyi, but now after talking to Emperor Wan Qi, he realized that Great Chu's big enemy was actually in the imperial court.
"Has the general made up his mind to stay in the capital this time?" asked Vice General Cao again.
Xiao Ying nodded, "I have accepted Your Majesty's reward and served as a foreigner in the military department." ā
Vice General Cao took a breath of cold air, "Your Majesty, this is too ......."
Too many words, Vice General Cao couldn't say it after all.
Those of them who are ministers must naturally be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, and some things can be said, but some things cannot be said nonsense. It's just that Vice General Cao still thinks that Emperor Wan Qi is too much, although Xiao Yingjing has a scattered Zhaoxin lieutenant before, but he is also a positive sixth grade. When the North Vietnamese army attacked, it was Xiao Yingjing who led several generals to risk their lives to rush to the front, in exchange for the stability of Dachu today.
Who in the army doesn't admire Xiao Yingjing?
However, it was such a meritorious man who was actually assigned to the military department and served as a small outsider.
What kind of reward is this?
Xiao Yingjing shook his head, "You misunderstood, Your Majesty didn't deprive me of my military power!"
At this time, Vice General Cao was speechless.
Da Chu did produce many virtuous people, and the only one who abandoned martial arts and followed literature but was not immediately deprived of military power was Wen Tianrui, the previous head of the Wen family.
"If you come, you will be safe!" Xiao Yingjing frowned, "Your Majesty estimates that you will continue to be tempted, Vice General Cao, I have always respected you very much, so whether you want to continue to return to the army in the future, or stay in the capital to help me, I hope you will give me an answer after thinking about it!"
When Vice General Cao heard this, he immediately knelt on one knee on the ground, "I have been in the army for many years, and I have always been by the general's side, and it was the general who saved my life many times." Cao Wu's life was given by the general...... So, General, let me follow you all the time!"
Deputy General Cao's real name is Cao Wu, and he is an unfavored concubine of the Cao family. He joined the army in the same year as Xiao Yingjing, and at that time, like Xiao Yingjing, he couldn't stay at home anymore and came out to find a place to survive.
Of course, the reason why they joined the army was also to guard the borders of Dachu.
However, Cao Wu's body is not as tough as Xiao Yingjing, and he almost lost his life on the battlefield several times, if it wasn't for Xiao Yingjing protecting him, he would have already turned into a piece of loess at this time.
Xiao Ying nodded, "Okay!"
Cao Wu's gaze swept over the Gu family on the bed, and then he got up and said goodbye to Xiao Yingjing.
When Cao Wu left, the door was covered very intimately.
In fact, Cao Wu knew that Xiao Yingjing had always been a smart person, but Xiao Yingjing had too many things in his heart, and he couldn't take them all into account. No wonder someone once said that loyalty and filial piety cannot be achieved since ancient times, but Xiao Yingjing took care of the country, but found that he couldn't take care of his wife......
Cao Wu sighed secretly, and when he left the small courtyard, his eyes fell on the two pots of ink chrysanthemums under the corridor.
In the weak winter sunshine, two pots of black chrysanthemums bloomed just right, adding a touch of agility to this quiet winter day.
He rubbed his eyes and looked again.
It's indeed Mo Ju.
Cao Wu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, smiled and turned to leave.
At that time, Xiao Yingjing was sitting in the house, holding Gu's hand, and muttering to himself, "Xiao Qian, I'm back!"
However, Gu Shi, who was lying on the bed, closed his eyes tightly, as if he wanted to cut off all the news around him.
Xiao Yingjing raised his hand, his fingertips swept between Gu's sideburns, and the tears in his eyes couldn't be stopped anymore......
He still remembered that when he first met Gu, Gu's appearance was delicate and his eyes were green, like a harmless kitten. However, after only ten years, she has aged so much that she will never see the agility of the past.
How can a person age so quickly.
Xiao Yingjing cried.
It was he who failed the Gu family.
He also thought that in his situation, he should have had a home after Da Chu was stable. It's just that after meeting Gu, his mind began to change.
The Gu family, like the Xiao family, is a family with a cold family.
Their situation is very similar.
Back then, when Old Lady Gu was still there, the Gu family still had someone to protect him. However, later, after Old Lady Gu fell seriously ill and fell into a coma, everything in the Gu family began to change. At that time, in order to let her eldest son Gu Tian marry a wife, Mrs. Gu actually wanted to sell the Gu family in private for some silver.
Old Madam Gu thought so, and did the same.
Gu's birth is good, and she is a yellow flower girl.
It just so happened that at that time, there was a group of madmen in the name of Taoism, who were buying people to make sacrifices and alchemy, and the price they gave was several times higher than that given by ordinary people. Mrs. Gu was very moved after hearing the news, she dressed up the Gu family that day, and then coaxed the Gu family to just go to the rich and noble family to be a maid, and she would not suffer.
Gu looked at his father on the bed, and naturally didn't want to be a burden to the family, so he agreed.
However, after arriving, Gu Shi realized that the place he went to was actually a demon cave.
Where will she die......
After hearing the news, Xiao Yingjing snatched the horse in the barracks, ran directly to the house in the deep mountains, shot the madman of Taoist alchemy with a longbow, and finally found the dying Gu in the cave in the back mountain.
Gu Shi was probably already desperate, she didn't expect him to come.
She used her remaining strength to mutter, "God treats me well, and when I die, I can still dream of you." Fourth brother, it's good to see you!" )
