Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Skillful Door
Mu Ze was still immersed in Jiuqing's sudden smile at him one moment ago, and the next moment he heard that he had led soldiers, and he was surprised in his heart, his thin body hid too many secrets, which was surprising and distressing, at this age, it seemed to have gone through difficult centuries, if he could, he wanted to hold up a powerful wing and shelter Jiuqing from the wind and rain. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The next day, he wanted to go to Ao'er Island to investigate the situation on the ground, and Zhang Gong took Fan Niang to wait for Jiuqing outside the post house for the first time, and reunited with the people of Jiuyuan, so he naturally had a pleasantry. When Jiuqing came out, he saw Zhang Gong and Fan Niang, stepped forward, patted Zhang Gong's shoulder, Zhang Gong was as restrained as he was at the beginning, shouted Jiu Ye, and then walked to the island with him. This is the tacit understanding between the Jiuyuan people and the Nine Masters, even if they haven't seen each other for many years, a look, an action, immediately burst out of deep friendship, this is the friendship that belongs to the Jiuyuan people and the Nine Masters.
When he came to the famous border city pontoon bridge, Mu Ze was already standing there, listening to what a middle-aged man with Si Swen was saying, seeing Jiuqing, he nodded at him, and pointed to the people around him.
Seeing that Jiuqing was coming, Mu Ze introduced the two of them
"This is the Ninth Master of Jiuyuan, and this is Song Qi, a master who focuses on ship and bridge construction."
Jiuqing nodded, this should have been invited by Mu Ze to build the pontoon bridge. Thinking of comparing Jiuqing's indifference, Song Qi seemed very excited, and kept talking for a long time, hesitatingly saying
"I heard that Mr. Li and Jiu Ye are old friends, I wonder if Mr. Li is still well?"
Jiuqing glanced at Mu Ze, presumably he told this person, it seemed that this person knew the skillful Li, but he didn't mind too much, and replied directly
"He's gone."
Song Qi obviously didn't expect to hear such a result, his expression was a little sad, Mu Ze looked at Jiuqing, there was some self-blame in his eyes, he didn't ask clearly. Jiuqing patted him with relief instead
"Birth, old age, sickness and death, the law of nature, Mr. Song doesn't have to be so sad, the old man walks very peacefully."
Song Qi also noticed his gaffe, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said with emotion
"When I was younger, I had a relationship with my husband, who taught me and was my mentor in architecture."
"Are you Musheng?"
Jiu Qing asked suddenly, Song Qi looked at Jiu Qing in surprise, he actually knew the name of the craftsman that the master gave him! Jiuqing is clear
"The old gentleman said that he has a big apprentice named Mu Sheng, if I meet him, give this to him."
A seal still stained with red clay was handed to Song Qi, and the seal handle was like a vigorous and upright tree trunk, and even the old skin with traces of time on the trunk was carved vividly, which was where the skill of skillful hand Li lie. Song Qi trembled and took the seal and put it in the palm of his hand, like a treasure
"Sir really said I was his big apprentice?"
Back then, I really wanted to worship under the old gentleman's door, but there was a sudden change at home, and I was in a hurry, and my husband also had something urgent to do. Jiuqing looked at Song Qi and nodded seriously
"Sir personally explained, if you are willing, I hope you will inherit the craftsmanship of the skillful hand Li."
"Yes, naturally willing! The one I admire the most is the master, he believes in me, I will definitely let the skillful Li pass on forever! ”
Song Qi excitedly stroked the seal in his hand, which was engraved with a skilled carpenter, and carefully took out Juan Pa to wrap the seal and put it in his arms for proper collection. Seeing him like this, Jiuqing knew that the old gentleman had a successor, and he was also very comforted
"The old gentleman also has an apprentice, named Mu Gen, he has a book written by Mr. in his life, which is also entrusted to you, he came with me, and I will introduce you to you in a while."
Hearing that he still has a fellow door, Song Qi was excited, and nodded hurriedly, since he has inherited the mantle of the master, he can set up a portal in the future.
"Let's go to the island."
Mu Ze saw that the two of them still had such a relationship, and he was also surprised in his heart, and the three of them walked to the island together, discussing how to build a temporary pontoon bridge all the way, and when they walked to the island, things were roughly discussed in a framework.
Han Ling had already led people to wait for them in the military region on the island, Mu Gen and Beicheng were in the military region together, Jiuqing glanced at Mu Ze, meaning whether this person could enter the military area, Mu Ze immediately understood what he meant, nodded with a smile, Jiuqing had no scruples, and took Song Qi to the military region to find someone.
"Third Master, Ninth Master!"
Beicheng and the others saw them coming, and they all stepped forward to say hello.
"Beicheng, you arrange what I said, Mugen, you come here."
Jiuqing glanced at one of the people in the crowd, and the person immediately walked over, and Jiuqing led him and Song Qi to the attic. Mu Ze knew that he was going to explain what the skillful hand Li left behind, and Beicheng gathered the people of Jiuyuan together and explained it, and everyone was busy with their own work.
"Your Royal Highness, if you miss the distance, please forgive your highness!"
A resolute voice came with the salty and wet sea breeze, and a chestnut figure also came to Mu Ze for the first time, and was about to kneel down on one knee, but Mu Ze took a hand
"General Zuo Yuan doesn't need to be polite, you and the soldiers have worked hard to defend the territory for Zeguo."
Zuo Yuan's face was stunned, the emperor of Zeguo was originally a hero, and he was also a Ming monarch after reigning for many years, but now it is twilight, and there is some bias in doing things, everyone pays attention to the movements of the prince, Zuo Yuan has been in the army for many years, and he was originally very promising to take over the position of general after General Hong Qi returned to his hometown, but he was upright and unhappy with the conspiracy methods of those princes, so he invited himself to the border city to be a border general. These three princes have always been low-key, they rarely pay attention to it, they just think of it as a medicine jar that they can't support, and the prince of the end who can't afford it, they don't even want to see such a gentle and noble prince in this chaotic and eventful border place, or the three princes they once looked down on! His opening made Zuo Yuan's heart stir up a wave, elegant and righteous, upright and uninhibited, maybe he is the hope of Zeguo!
"It is the duty of a soldier to protect the family and defend the country, where is the word hard work, His Royal Highness has come thousands of miles to this place of turmoil, it is hard work."
Mu Ze's dark eyes flashed with a smile, this Zuo Yuan is a veteran of the imperial court, but in fact, he is not very old, in his thirties, he has long known about his resignation to stay in Beijing and insisted on going to this city, and now he is polite, knowing that he has not opened his mind to himself, but is just waiting for General Hong Qi.
"General Zuo, there is no His Highness here, just call me the third master. I know that our navy is not strong enough, and now it is being invaded by the pirates of the same stream of the powerful navy of the Rin country, and the form is very serious, so I specially invited someone to train a special team to deal with the current situation, and I will gather in the hall in a while and analyze it in detail. ”
Zuo Yuan immediately said yes, his thoughts were complicated, Rin Country is a small country, but they are all countries that beg for a living in the water, so the navy is the main force of their country, I didn't expect that the third master would find out the form of the enemy when he first arrived in the border city, and he thought that he was just a sick prince who was pampered and pampered, and he saw that the sky in the capital was about to change, so he came to mix up some credit, but he didn't want this prince to impress him. However, training is a long-lasting thing, and they don't have that much time to train any special teams, so they still don't think much of the third master's words.
