The banquet went very smoothly, and everyone got along happily. "Words, feelings, first, http://www.Klxsw.com

Ma Xiaoyao is such a person, if you are polite to him, he will be polite to you, and basically will not put on a show.

After the banquet was over, Ma Xiaoyao went back to his room to rest, and the ten captains also took their leave.

After coming out of the General Military Mansion, the ten commanders immediately swept away their drunken state, and one by one they became energetic, and they pretended to be drunk for a long time.

"Come up, I have something to tell you." Ding Xiong shook his head and boarded the carriage.

The other nine men also got into the carriage.

The carriage was spacious, with a stove lit, tables and chairs, and a few plates of fruit on the table.

"What do you think of the new chief soldier?" asked Ding Xiong with an expressionless face.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and they didn't speak.

"Why don't you speak, aren't you usually quite able to speak, why are you dumb now" Ding Xiong frowned, among the ten captains, he was the oldest and had the highest kung fu, so the tone of his speech was a little rushed.

"Ahem" Wu Haibiao cleared his throat: "Let me say a few words, I think, the new chief soldier still looks very easy to speak, as for the real character, I still need to slowly observe and understand." ”

"Well, Lao Wu is right, if you want to understand a person, you need time to observe slowly." Liu Zihao said with a big belly and a smile.

"Don't give me a sloppy look." Ding Xiong snorted lightly: "What do you think in your hearts, I know very well, there are no outsiders here, you don't have to have any scruples when you speak, you can say whatever you want" Speaking of this, Ding Xiong paused: "I'll make a statement first, Ma Xiaoyao is the chief soldier, I don't accept it, he is just a fifth-level martial artist, at the same level as me, what qualifications does he have to care about me" There is another reason why Ding Xiong hates Ma Xiaoyao, that is, Ma Xiaoyao used to be his subordinate, and he used to live according to his face, but now his positions are suddenly reversed, The subordinate became the boss, and Ding Xiong was very upset.

"Lao Ding, since you are not convinced, then why are you still so polite today" Wu Haibiao raised his eyelids: "Isn't this a contradiction?"

"Yes, Lao Ding, you have a lot of respect for Ma Xiaoyao today." The others spoke.

"You know what?" Ding Xiong pouted: "I'm just pretending, no matter what, Ma Xiaoyao is the chief soldier appointed from above after all, I can't be too cold, let alone let Ma Xiaoyao grab the handle to deal with me." "The most taboo thing in officialdom is the following offenses, according to the size of the official position, Ma Xiaoyao is Ding Xiong's boss, if Ding Xiong dares to contradict Ma Xiaoyao, it is disrespectful, and then Ma Xiaoyao has every excuse to clean up Ding Xiong, and others can't say anything.

"Then what do you say," Wu Haibiao pouted.

"One set on the surface, one set behind the back." Ding Xiong said slowly: "On the surface, we have to be respectful to him, so that he can't find a little fault, behind the scenes, we make him stumble, let him make mistakes, in short, he doesn't want to be this general soldier safely." ”

"Okay, I've got your back." Wu Haibiao was the first to say: "Speaking from the heart, let a fifth-level martial artist be the chief soldier, I am not convinced."

"I'm not convinced either"

"Just listen to Lao Ding, flattering him on the surface, calculating him behind his back, with the ten of us joining forces, we can definitely play him to death."

"Hehe, I listen to the big guy, you can do what you say, I have no opinion."

Everyone expressed their stance one after another.

Seeing that everyone supported his point of view, Ding Xiong was very happy: "Okay, from now on, the ten of us will be an alliance, advancing and retreating together, sharing happiness."

"Lao Ding, have you thought about it, even if you take Ma Yao away, there will still be a new general soldier sent above, maybe it's another fifth-level martial artist." Someone said worriedly.

"Hehe" Ding Xiong smiled slightly: "I have a message for you, I will soon be able to break through the bottleneck and enter the ranks of sixth-level martial artists." ”

"Really"

"You're not kidding, are you?"

"Oh, that's a great event."

"Lao Ding, congratulations so much."

Ding Xiong's smile was very bright: "It's a little early for you to congratulate, I haven't broken through the bottleneck yet." ”

"Oh, it's not a matter of time or time, Lao Ding, once you become a sixth-level martial artist, you will be eligible to compete for the position of chief soldier." Wu Haibiao said with a smile.

"Well, I'm not going to hide it from you, I do have that idea." Ding Xiong nodded: "And I am already operating, I promise you now, as long as I become the chief soldier, I will treat you well, and then the White Tiger Banner military camp will be our world." ”

"Okay, I'm relieved to have your words."

"Lao Ding, oh no, I should call you General Ding, and please take care of me in the future."

"It's okay now, Lao Ding will be the chief soldier, and our life will be better."

"Tonight we must celebrate and celebrate, go to the best restaurants, eat the best food, and drink the best wine."

No matter what everyone thinks in their hearts, they are happy on the surface anyway, and they compliment Ding Xiong vigorously.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Ding Xiong smiled: "I'm in for a treat tonight, you can eat whatever you want, don't be polite to me." Speaking of this, Ding Xiong's tone changed: "But there is one thing, what we say today must be kept secret, and we must not tell anyone else, even your wife can't sue us, especially the matter of my plan for the general army must be kept secret." ”

"Don't worry, we'll keep it a secret."

"yes, we're not going to talk nonsense."

"Just put your heart in your stomach, this matter is related to our future, and we will definitely keep our mouths shut."

Everyone patted their chests and promised that they would not leak secrets.

"Well, okay, let's talk about this today, let's go back and rest, I'll have a banquet in Yuxiangyuan in the evening, you remember to come early." Ding Xiong said with a smile, Yuxiangyuan is the best restaurant in Baihucheng, not only the environment is good, the food is also delicious, and it is very popular with everyone, of course, the food in Yuxiangyuan is very expensive, and ordinary people can't afford it.

"Okay, we'll definitely go." After agreeing on the time to meet, everyone left the carriage one after another.

General Military Office.

Inside the backyard hall.

Ma Xiaoyao sat on the chair, holding a cup of tea in his hand and slowly savoring it, and there was a person sitting on his left hand, an old acquaintance, he was Gu Zhiqiu, the chief butler of the General Military Mansion.

After the banquet was over, Ma Xiaoyao called Gu Zhiqiu over.

Gu Zhiqiu's mood at the moment is very complicated, a few days ago, Ma Xiaoyao was still a fugitive, living a wolf bèi unbearable life, who knew that within a few days, the situation suddenly changed against the sky, Ma Xiaoyao became the chief soldier, and the identity of the fugitive was also canceled, this change is really amazing, so that Gu Zhiqiu has a feeling of dreaming until now.

"Brother Gu, you must have a lot of questions in your heart," Ma looked at Gu Zhiqiu with a smile.

"Eh" Gu Zhiqiu squeezed out a smile: "I'm really a little surprised, I really didn't expect you to become the chief soldier"

"To be honest, I didn't expect it either." Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "God was kind to me this time, and gave me a chance to raise my eyebrows once." ”

Gu Zhiqiu smiled and didn't speak, mainly because he didn't know what to say.

"Brother Gu, speaking of which, we are also friends, you have helped me, I must not treat you badly." Ma Xiaoyao said: "In this way, you are still your big housekeeper, what you are usually responsible for and what you are responsible for later, except for me, no one can order you." ”

"Ah" Gu Zhiqiu was stunned: "You still let me be the big housekeeper"

"Yes." Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Not only will I let you be the big butler, but I will also give you Han Mingguang's second wife, and you can be together openly and honestly in the future." ”

"Thank you for your kindness, I don't want to be a big housekeeper." Gu Zhiqiu shook his head: "I want to leave here, and I also ask the chief soldier to complete it, as for Han Mingguang's second wife, I have long cut off contact with her."

"Why do you have an opinion about me," Ma Xiaoyao's face sank.

"No, no, no, how dare I have an opinion about you." Gu Zhiqiu hurriedly waved his hand: "It's my own problem, I've been a big housekeeper for many years, I'm really tired, I want to go home and recuperate." ”

"I'm tired, I can arrange a few more subordinates for you, and in the future, you will be in charge of the overall situation, and the trivial things will be handed over to the people below to do." Ma Xiaoyao said.

"No, I really don't want to be a big butler anymore." Gu Zhiqiu's attitude was very resolute.

"Brother Gu, I sincerely keep you, you won't even give me this face" Ma Xiaoyao's tone was a little dissatisfied: "Do you know how I became the chief soldier" Without waiting for Gu Zhiqiu to answer, Ma Xiaoyao continued: "It was appointed by the emperor himself." ”

"What emperor personally appointed" Gu Zhiqiu's eyes suddenly widened.

"Yes, the Emperor." Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "The emperor admires me very much, so he promoted me exceptionally, let me tell you the truth, I am not a long time as a general soldier, I will definitely go to the imperial city to develop in the future, and at that time, I hope that the person who will take over the general army is you." ”

"I" the corners of Gu Zhiqiu's mouth twitched fiercely.

"That's you." Ma Xiaoyao nodded very affirmatively: "I know you have some doubts in your heart, doubt whether I have the ability to help you become the chief soldier, I will tell you something, the emperor owes me a big favor, no matter what conditions I propose, as long as it is within a reasonable range, he will agree." ”

Gu Zhiqiu was silent suddenly, the temptation of being a chief soldier is still very great, at least he can't refuse, he has been a big butler in the general army for so many years, and he knows the position of the chief soldier very well, to put it bluntly, the general soldier is the overlord of one party, and he is the emperor of the soil in White Tiger City, the power is terrifying, and a word can determine life and death, if Gu Zhiqiu can really be the chief soldier, then he will be comfortable in the future.

"Why don't you want to" Ma Xiaoyao slightly raised his eyebrows: "Or do you doubt my words"

Gu Zhiqiu was silent for a moment, and then asked, "I'm not related to you, why do you want to help me so much?"

"If you don't ask, I'll tell you." Ma Xiaoyao smiled slightly: "In this world, there is no hatred for no reason, and there is no love for no reason, I have conditions to help you." ”

"What conditions," Gu Zhiqiu asked in a deep voice.

"It's simple." Ma Xiaoyao didn't go around the corner, and said his conditions directly: "During my tenure, I need you to help me stabilize the situation and settle the thorns below, I have just arrived, and the cultivation of martial artists is not high, and the people below will definitely not obey me, so I need your help." ”

"You seem to think too highly of me." Gu Zhiqiu crooked his mouth: "I'm just a housekeeper, but I don't have the ability to help you stabilize the situation." ”

"You're no ordinary butler." Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "You are the chief steward of the General Military Mansion, and you are in contact with characters such as Captain Wanshu and Thousand Commanders every day, and you have been in contact with them many times, so you must have made a friendship, besides, you used to be a celebrity around Han Mingguang, and the following Captain and Thousand Commanders will definitely be able to please you vigorously, I hope you can say a few good words for them in front of Han Mingguang, don't say anything else, let's talk about contact, you know the details of those commanders and commanders very well, I just arrived, my eyes were black, and I didn't understand anything, I really need someone like you to help me. ”

Gu Zhiqiu glanced at Ma Xiaoyao deeply: "I didn't expect my status in your mind to be quite high." ”

"High, very high." Ma Xiaoyao nodded seriously: "You are Jiang Ziya in my mind, I really need your help, of course, I won't let you work in vain, as long as you help me sincerely, I will ensure that you will be the chief soldier in the future." ”

"Can you let me think about it" Gu Zhiqiu was obviously moved.

"Yes, I'll give you time to think about it." Ma Yao nodded.

Then the two of them stopped talking, Ma Xiaoyao sat on the chair and drank tea, while Gu Zhiqiu frowned and pondered.

Time passed minute by minute, and half an hour passed unconsciously.

Just when Ma Xiaoyao was waiting a little impatiently, Gu Zhiqiu finally made a final decision: "Okay, I promise you, I will help you, but you must swear to promise to help me become the chief soldier in the future." ”

"No problem." Ma Xiaoyao immediately raised his hand and swore a poisonous oath.

"Lord Commander, I will be your soldier in the future, I will do whatever you ask me to do, and I will definitely not hold you back." Gu Zhiqiu had already straightened his position at this moment, stood up and saluted the horse.

"In the future, everyone will be their own people, don't be so polite, come, sit down and say." Ma Yao smiled and waved his hand: "By the way, how is the toothed beast?"

"It's good, I've been feeding it myself these days, it's delicious and delicious every day, and I guess I've gained a lot of weight." Gu Zhiqiu said.

"So, you find a few people to get it out of the swamp, and let it stay in the General Army from now on." Ma Yao commanded.

"Okay, I'll arrange it later." Gu Zhiqiu nodded.

"Old Brother"

"Oh, don't call me Brother Gu, you are now the chief soldier, I am the housekeeper, it is too inappropriate for you to call me like that, it is not good to be heard by others, you should call my name directly."

"It's too raw to call your name, I don't want to call you Lao Gu."

"Okay, as long as you don't call me Brother Gu."

"Old Gu, you help me analyze the situation in front of me, where should I start?" Ma Xiaoyao humbly asked.
