Chapter Seventy-Three: The Oath

Even if it is a woman, when she overlooks Chang'an City, she will also give birth to a little pride and enthusiasm when reading the border and emergency news. What can pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info his own selfishness?

Gillian's face softened, and she asked softly, "How is Wei Qing learning to ride and shoot in the period gate army?" ”

The fifteen-year-old boy is not yet the great general of the three armies in the future, and the honor and disgrace of hundreds of thousands of soldiers depend on him alone, so he is calm and calm. He almost stammered when he heard the queen's question: "Go back to the queen's mother, it's okay to learn." ”

The young man was a little shy, but more excited, he never thought that as a slave, he would be able to join the army like a good family. The third sister is right, he has met a nobleman.

"That's good, how do you want to see me?"

"Back to Niangniang, it was His Majesty who asked Wei Qing to come to see Niangniang." The young man's face was almost flushed with excitement and his heart almost jumped to his throat, and finally calmed down.

Wei Qing, it is really realistic to say in the history books that you are upright and have never used your power for personal gain. It's been a few months since the Gate Army came, and this is the first time I've asked to see you, and Liu Che asked you to come. In the period gate army where there are so many people behind the Jiangmen Houmen, there is no background, and he must be bullied and excluded, and he can pull the queen's tiger skin banner without pulling it, this is still Liu Che who admires this riding slave and asked him to see him.

Talent also needs a stepping stone!

"You go back, practice riding and archery in the army, and give you a year. By this time next year, if you can take 100 steps and hit 100 shots, you will start to study the military book. "If you want to be a general, you can serve the people by shooting people alone, and you have to learn the art of war. Since he has confused history, Wei Qing can't grow step by step because of his sister's relationship with the palace as an official, so he has to make up for what he lacks.

The starting point is in the army, and after training, you can get to know some people, which will benefit him a lot in the future.

The Book of War? Wei Qing was shocked, raised his head and looked directly at Gillian. He wanted to say that it would be a great blessing for him to be in the army, how could he still want to learn military books? He thought of what others had told him in the past, when there was a generous gift, he would be appreciated if he refused.

Because of the rules, because I know that I can't think about these things that shouldn't belong to me.

If it was gold, silver and jewelry, he Wei Qing could refuse it as soon as possible. But riding archery and military books, the prancing horse battlefield is a dream he doesn't know how many times. It's so hard to say no.

"Ahem!" Chun Tuo saw that Wei Qing was stupid and dared to look directly at Niangniang, and coughed to wake up this stupid boy.

Wei Qing came to his senses and hesitated a little to refuse. Niangniang had already spoken again, and her voice was clear: "Sure enough, I'm an idiot, I'm so happy to hear the book of soldiers." Go learn to ride and shoot with peace of mind, the agreement between this palace and you counts. Chuntuo, go and send Wei Qing back. She seemed to smile, and listening to the words, Wei Qing could imagine the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

He thought of teaching his mother to train horses when he was hunting in Shanglin Yuan at that time, and she learned to laugh like this. That is, on that day, Niangniang said that she would send him to Shanglin Yuan to join the army.

He feels a little guilty, the mother is kind and noble, why do you need to go around with him with these scheming? Niangniang is not one of those dignitaries who does not treat the slaves and maids as human beings, he thought of this and respectfully bowed to Niangniang and withdrew.

After leaving the camp tent and not walking a few steps, Wei Qing arched his hand and said to Chuntuo: "There is no need to send the eunuch, Wei Qing is familiar with the way back." "He has also seen a lot of Chuntuo, and every time His Majesty comes to the gate army, Chuntuo is by his side. After a long time, he knew that this was the first yellow gate to be used by His Majesty's side, and he was a person with a little face in the palace.

Chuntuo didn't stop, he continued to walk forward. only said lightly: "Let's go, this is the mother to explain to the slave, it has nothing to do with whether you know the road or not." ”

As soon as he said this, Wei Qing had no choice but to continue to walk with him. Walking a little further, you can see the soldiers who are training the whole battalion in the snow, and everyone in the queue is stunned when they see Chuntuo leading a small soldier over.

But out of strict military discipline, he didn't dare to discuss it, but just watched this strange combination go away. Many people are already desperately thinking in their hearts which son this will be? It's after Houmen, it's strange that I haven't heard that there is such a number one in the army who can ask Chuntuo to lead the way, and he doesn't know it yet.

Wei Qing felt these scrutiny in all directions, and he was extremely embarrassed. He was pure by nature, and he thought that it was a great luck to be lucky enough to enter the period gate army, thinking that many people from the same background as him were stuck in the slave and maid layer, he didn't know how he could have such a great blessing.

When he first came in, he told the people in the camp that he was a manu, but at first no one believed him, and then everyone believed it with suspicion. Now that Chuntuo is led away like this, he will be famous in the Qimen Army tomorrow, and everyone should not believe it again.

He is not a person who likes to show off and want to be in the limelight, and he is even more afraid of coming in in the name of his mother and embarrassing his mother.

He just wants to learn martial arts in the army and live up to his mother's hard work.

Wei Qing's head was getting lower and lower along the way, almost staring at the road in front of him and walking back to the camp. Chuntuo didn't know when he stopped and almost hit him. Wei Qing raised his head and saw that when he arrived in his camp, the brothers were practicing horse archery on the field.

He hurriedly saluted Chuntuo and then saluted the overseers on the sidelines, and after the overseers nodded, he hurriedly found his own war horse on the sidelines and went to the field with a bow and arrow on his back.

As for the scene where Chuntuo behind him was saying something to the prison army, and the prison army was nodding with a smile and couldn't stop nodding, Wei Qing didn't see it.

Wei Qing thought badly, and in the evening, he asked Chuntuo to send it back, and the news of going to meet the queen spread widely. Even, there are already rumors that he is a distant relative of the queen. Now almost no one believes that he is a manu, and those who have a better relationship come over to joke and gossip with him and inquire about his origins.

"I'll just say, your kid is so good at riding, what kind of slave is this?"

"I turned out to be a manu."

"Nonsense, Manu can have such good riding skills at your age?" Another soldier answered, and at the same time pushed him: "You just say, there is nothing to guarantee after Houmen, and this is what our Qimen army does not lack." ”

"yes, you're just curious." Han Shuo on the opposite side spoke, he was Gong Gaohou's grandson and Han Yan's half-brother. He was a little self-conscious when he first entered the Temporal Army, but soon found that there were many people who were taller than him here.

"Wei Qing, you won't really be a manu, right?" This time it was Feng Lin who spoke, his father succeeded the goshawk as the Taishou of Yanmen, Feng Jing, who died in battle when the Xiongnu broke through Yanmen, and is currently the highest-ranking official on the Han-Hun battlefield.

As they trained together, bleed, cheered, and punished together, the young soon became friends, gathering together regardless of high or low.

Among them, Feng Lin is the most respected, his father died on the battlefield. He was an only son, and he could have accepted His Majesty's care and lived a chic and happy life. But he insisted on joining the army and inheriting his father's will.

As soon as he spoke, everyone naturally quieted down, waiting for Wei Qing's answer. Wei Qing scratched his head, he naturally knew that his brothers, who were crawling together every day, asked him if he had bad intentions. But it's not that he doesn't say it, it's that everyone doesn't believe it.

Also, if you change it, others don't believe it.

Wei Qing nodded solemnly and said, "I used to work as a horse slave in the palace stable, managing hundreds of horses. ”

"Then how do you know the queen?" Gongsun Ao patted him and was puzzled. Gongsun Ao is Liu Che's horseman, who used to guard and protect His Majesty when he traveled, and later heard that His Majesty had set up a gate army and begged His Majesty to come in. He is Wei Qing's friend, and when he asks Wei Qing, he is also directly refreshing, and he asks what everyone is really curious about.

"I've been a slave for my mother, right?" Wei Qing didn't have the heart to hide it, but he didn't want to borrow the name of his mother. He still doesn't understand that Niangniang asked Chuntuo to send him back to support him.

"What do you mean? I used to be a horseman for His Majesty, and I have never heard of such a riding slave as you by Niangniang's side. Gongsun Ao thought carefully and thought about it.

"It's only been one day, and I don't know if it counts. That's why I didn't say it. Wei Qing lowered his head and said, "Later, the mother said that it was a pity for me to be a riding slave, so she sent me to the gate army." ”

Wei Qingren has always been sincere, and everyone really believed it when he said this. But immediately, it was like a pot exploding, and you and I surrounded him one by one.

"I didn't expect Niangniang to cherish her talent so much, Wei Qing, your kid is really lucky."

"Why are you embarrassed that my mother recommended you here?"

Of course, there is no shortage of them, that is, those who look down on Wei Qing and their civilian slaves, these princes and grandsons are watching them on the other side of the house with disdain. Among them, Liu Ya looked down on Han Shuo Feng Lin's appearance of mixing with civilians, and there was now an extra riding slave in his obedient voice. And he is the great-grandson of Gaozu, the son of King Chengyang, and the serious Gaozu bloodline.

He snorted coldly and got up and went out, and the group of teenagers who went out with him also threw Wei Qing a cold snort.

One of the people threw down a sentence when he was about to go out: "What about the queen's riding slave?" Don't lose the face of the queen mother again, make it difficult for Your Majesty. ”

I don't know who immediately took over the conversation, and said with a sneer: "Go back where you should go." ”

Gongsun Ao had a temper and was about to get up and reason with them. Wei Qing grabbed him and said to everyone: "What they said is not wrong, Wei Qing didn't say it before, first, there is really nothing to say, and second, he is really afraid of embarrassing his mother." ”

"But......" The perennial gentle and harmless smile on the young man's face suddenly changed, replaced by a determined face. He said word by word: "I will definitely not embarrass my mother!" ”

The light and shadow hit the face of this fifteen-year-old boy, making him look a lot taller. Everyone wanted to persuade him not to care about what Liu Ya's group of people said, they had always been like this, but it was the first time they had seen such a resolute Wei Qing.

It's just a scene from everyday life, and everyone thought it would soon be forgotten with the passage of time. However, ten or twenty years later, Han Shuo, who had already become a general, and Gongsun Ao were chatting and drinking in a casual chat, talking about the big Sima Weiqing, and they all said that Wei Qing, who almost swore that he would not embarrass the queen, was shining at that time.

He did it, he did not disgrace the queen who appreciated him and His Majesty who boldly appointed him, he did not disgrace the soldiers who died on the battlefield and could never return to their hometown. He made the Huns afraid, so that all the people in the world were proud of him, and even future generations would praise the true military god when talking about Wei Qing! (To be continued.) )
