The procession to the north meandered out for a long time, and marched forward along the official road.

Ning Jun has already changed into a new military uniform, and he looks particularly powerful and domineering.

When this large group of men and horses marched forward, there was a momentum like an overwhelming sea.

Sometimes even Li Qi himself can't believe that he will change so much.

When he and his master came to Jizhou a few years ago, they never thought that it would be like this now.

As always, the flatbed cart, as always the straw scent.

Li Qi lay there looking at the sky, with a piece of hay in his mouth, not thinking about this battle to the northwest, but thinking about himself and his master before coming to Jizhou.

At that time, Li Qi asked Master, why did you buy my life?

Master, are you trying to hire a murderer to kill me?

Thinking of this, Li Qi couldn't help but smile, he was indeed a little stupid at that time.

At this moment, in another carriage dozens of feet away.

This carriage is different from Li Qi's carriage, this carriage is very comfortable.

The carriage is well decorated, the seats are also padded, and there is a small stove in the car for the people in the car to cook tea.

There is also sandalwood lit on one side, and the smell in the carriage is very good, but the window must be open, otherwise it is easy to suffocate people.

Ye Ce sat there quietly reading a book, while his brother-in-law Xu Ji leaned on the window and looked out.

Speaking of which, he is only fourteen or fifteen years old, and he is still curious about many things.

"Why does His Royal Highness King Ning like to be in a carriage like that?"

Xu Ji asked.

Ye Ce Leng glanced up at him, as if he didn't want to be disturbed, so he said perfunctorily; "What His Royal Highness King Ning likes, you can't comment at will."

Xu Ji pouted and said, "I'm not telling others, I'm talking to you." ”

When Ye Ce was reading the book and was sinking in, he was disturbed by his thoughts.

He put down the book and said helplessly: "His Royal Highness King Ning likes to sit in such a carriage because he is open-minded. ”

Xu Jidao: "But that is not in line with King Ning's identity, brother-in-law, you said that different people must have different identities." ”

He looked at Li Qi in the distance and said softly: "Brother-in-law, you also said that the matter of etiquette is a rule that the ancestor came up with, and the king must have a royal ceremony." ”

"When the people see the king like this, they will have less reverence, and they will feel that the king's status is not honorable."

Ye Ce said coldly: "What is written in the book is the truth of death, you have to learn to be flexible." ”

After pondering for a moment, he said: "His Majesty Emperor Taizu, the founding emperor of Great Chu, at the beginning of the business, he and his subordinates slept on the pyre, slept in the fields, ate moldy food together, and endured freezing and starvation together, and once seven or eight people shared a pot of wine to drink......

He said seriously: "What is the difference between King Ning at this time and Emperor Taizu of Great Chu at that time?" ”

Xu Ji nodded and said, "It turned out to be a means to buy people's hearts." ”

Ye Ce sighed coldly and said, "King Ning is not, he has an ordinary background, an open personality, and simple behavior, this is his true temperament." ”

Xu Ji thought in his heart, but he is now the king, and the king still has to have a model of the king.

Ye Ce coldly admonished: "If you are in front of others, you are not allowed to talk nonsense like this. ”

"Yes, yes."

Xu Ji casually agreed to two sentences.

He leaned on the window, still looking at King Ning in the distance.

Ye Ce said coldly: "Instead of thinking nonsense here, you might as well prepare some more homework, His Royal Highness King Ning's Northern Expedition this time is to conquer the Northwest Cult, do you know anything about that cult?" ”

"Yes."

Xu Ji lay there and said: "Tanglin Road, which was once popular in several counties in the northwest, is now resurrected. ”

He lazily told the past of Tanglin Road 1510, and he actually said it in great detail

Be as accurate as possible.

Ye Ce was stunned: "When did you know this?" ”

"Two days ago."

Xu Ji said: "Brother-in-law, when you were trying to find a way to verify various files, I chatted with people in the army, and in two days, I found more than a dozen veterans to chat, summarized what they said, eliminated exaggerations and untruths, and the rest was the appearance of the Tanglin Dao cult." ”

He glanced back at Ye Ce coldly: "Brother-in-law, you are the one who dies studying." ”

Ye Ce shook his head helplessly, and he said to Xu Ji: "Even so, you should think more about how to deal with the enemy's situation, and how to govern the place after winning, King Ruoning asked......

Before he finished his words, Xu Ji shook his head helplessly.

"Brother-in-law, the victory or defeat of this battle is not in the battle itself, but in how to make the people in the northwest no longer believe in the cult, otherwise, why would His Royal Highness King Ning take Xiao Zhang Zhenren from Longhu Mountain?"

Ye Ce was stunned again.

Xu Ji said: "Then brother-in-law, have you ever thought about why His Royal Highness King Ning wants to bring you?" So it shouldn't be me who thinks about what you said, but brother-in-law, you should think more about how you should answer when His Royal Highness King Ning asks you. ”

He didn't wait for Ye Celeng to answer, and sighed lightly: "I heard that the environment in the northwest is far inferior to Jizhou, and there are many freshness in this Jizhou city, I haven't seen enough of it......

Ye Ce pondered for a moment and came to his senses.

Before King Ning came this time, what he said to him was that he should be a counselor of the marching army and take care of military affairs.

thought that he was going to make suggestions for this battle, but Xu Ji's reminder made him understand.

His Royal Highness King Ning took him with the intention of leaving him in the northwest.

Xu Ji said: "Brother-in-law, I'll give you back your words, instead of thinking about this, instead of reading books dryly, don't go and talk to Xiao Zhang Zhenren at this time." ”

He said with some regret: "Jizhou is actually quite fun...... I don't know if there is anything fun in the small county town over there. ”

Seeing Ye Ce looking at him with wide eyes, Xu Ji said, "You still look at me...... In order to stabilize the northwest, His Royal Highness King Ning must first calm the hearts of the people and eliminate the influence of cults, so he will definitely leave Xiao Zhang Zhenren to preach in the northwest counties. ”

He seemed tired of sitting and found a place to recline.

He said to Ye Ce Leng: "Don't you think that Xiao Zhang Zhenren is just a little Taoist, if King Ning wins the world in the future, he will be the national teacher, do you believe it or not?" ”

"And what about you, brother-in-law, you have the talent of a feudal official, and you will not stay in northern Xinjiang in the future, and Jizhou will be the envoy...... At that time, it may not be called Jizhou Jiedu Envoy, anyway, the meaning is almost the same. ”

"But Xiao Zhang Zhenren wants to stay by His Royal Highness King Ning's side, and it will be of great benefit to you to get closer to Xiao Zhang Zhenren now."

After Xu Ji finished speaking, he closed his eyes, and said a little old-fashioned: "Always say this, you have to annoy me." ”

Ye Ce sneered and said, "You said that Xiao Zhang Zhenren will be a national teacher in the future, and I will be a feudal official in the future, so what about yourself?" ”

Xu Ji smiled and said, "Me? ”

He paused for a moment, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "I have the talent to govern the country, and I also have the power to govern the country, if nothing happens, the power of the court will be in my hands, and one person will be above ten thousand people, and I will be the prime minister." ”

Ye Ce laughed coldly and said, "The ambition is not bad, but don't be so lazy or so rash." ”

He smiled and said: "King Ning is a genius and a person of fortune, even if you can be the prime minister in the future, you must not have the slightest disrespect." ”

Xu Ji pouted: "Brother-in-law, you should think more about yourself, my business, I just think about it myself." ”

He opened his eyes and looked at Ye Ce Leng: "Don't go yet?" ”

Ye Ce Leng sighed slightly, helpless and admired this brother-in-law.

He got out of the carriage, inquired where Xiao Zhang Zhenren was, and looked for it.

At night, when camping.

Xiao Zhang Zhenren found in

Li Qi, who was next to the bonfire, sat down next to Li Qi.

He had wide sleeves in his robe, and when he sat down, he had to throw it away in all directions.

Li Qi looked at the smile on his face, and couldn't help but smile and asked, "Xiao Zhenren's face is spring, is it the month?" ”

Zhang Yuxu sighed: "Your Highness, you have to respect yourself......"

Li Qi laughed.

He asked, "Something?" ”

Zhang Yuxu said: "Something. ”

Li Qi said: "I also have something to tell you, you say it first, I'll say it first?" ”

Zhang Yuxu said: "Let me say it first, in the afternoon, Mr. Ye Ce Leng Ye talked to me for a long time. ”

Li Qi thought about it, Ye Celeng suddenly went to chat with Zhang Yuxu for a long time, probably because of the northwest matter.

So he asked, "Mr. Ye is probably asking you, how should he cooperate with you?" ”

Zhang Yuxu's eyes widened: "Your Highness, how do you know?" ”

Li Qi pouted: "It's just clever." ”

Zhang Yuxu told Ye Ce Leng about finding him truthfully and in detail, and then said: "Ye Ce Leng said that it was his wife and brother Xu Ji who reminded him. ”

"Xu Ji?"

Li Qi said: "That little child? ”

Zhang Yuxu nodded: "Well, Xu Ji said to Ye Celeng, King Ning probably wants to leave you in the northwest, you should go to Xiao Zhang Zhenren in advance to talk about the rule of the people......

He looked at Li Qi and said, "This young man is very smart. ”

Li Qi snorted: "When you get to the northwest, let's see him again." ”

He said to Zhang Yuxu: "You don't wear such wide-sleeved clothes every day, it's not an important occasion, it's not necessary." ”

Zhang Yuxu said solemnly: "One is to preach for King Ning, and the other is to preach for Longhu Mountain, so you must respect your identity and ......."

Li Qi waved his hand: "But don't you think it's a little bad?" ”

Zhang Yuxu asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Li Qi pointed: "Your robe is so wide, the corners of your clothes are almost burned in the fire, and you don't notice it at all." ”

Zhang Yuxu: "Wow! ”

I jumped up with a thud.

After trampling on the fire in the corner of his clothes, he asked Li Qi: "...... you When did you see it? ”

Li Qi said: "I asked you, when I said it first or when you said it first, it was scorched at that time, and then it was burned, I was in a hurry, and you said so much at once, and you didn't give me a chance......"

Zhang Yuxu sighed: "Your Highness's anxiety, I feel it, and everyone who is anxious is about to laugh out loud." ”

Li Qi said with a smile: "Nonsense, isn't this already laughing?" ”

Zhang Yuxuxin said that when he was in Longhu Mountain, his master Lao Zhenren told him that even if the emperor star was in the north, he was benevolent and benevolent, and he was a benevolent and righteous king.

He thought to himself, Master, Master, you are half right.

He's a righteous man.

Zhang Yuxu said: "It took me two or three months of monthly silver to order this robe. ”

Li Qi said: "You try to tear the robe into a short robe, it may be very interesting, and it can attract people's eyes more than the robe." ”

Zhang Yuxu stretched out his hand: "Compensate me for the silver." ”

Li Qi sighed: "It's obvious that you accidentally ...... it"

Zhang Yuxu just looked at Li Qi, and after looking at it for a while, Li Qi was weak and took out the silver to Zhang Yuxu.

Zhang Yuxu turned around to leave, and Li Qi said, "You burn it for a while, I spent the silver." ”

Zhang Yuxu stumbled.

Li Qi smiled, but what he was thinking about was the young man named Xu Ji.

Being young should never be a reason to be looked down upon.

Since he is smart, give him a chance to use his ingenuity.

Who was not despised when he was young?
