Zuo Yan was stunned for a moment and said, "What did Lang Jun say?" ”

Xu You knew that he actually heard clearly, but his head couldn't turn for a while, so he lifted the porcelain pot on a few cases and poured water slowly into the cup to give him time to ponder.

A glass of water was full of seven points, Zuo Yan woke up, hurriedly held the cup in his hand, didn't even dare to say, and then his expression darkened, and said: "I am a lowly person, I have received the great favor of Lord Lang, but I want to repay him with my life for the rest of my life, as for the rest, I haven't thought too much about it!" ”

Xu You shook his head and said: "Loyalty is right, but loyalty is different from loyalty and foolish loyalty. You have followed Yuan for many years, and you are literate in reading, so you should also know a little bit of Confucian scriptures. What exactly is loyalty? ”

Zuo Yan picked up the cup, took a sip of water, and then sat on the table, bowing his head and silently.

"Zi said, 'The king makes the ministers courteous, and the ministers are loyal', but now, Yuan Gong doesn't say that he treats you politely, even if he wants to meet him, I'm afraid it's not easy. The communication between each other depends on Feng Tong, but this Yixing trip, because of me, you offended him badly, and I don't think I will say anything good about you in front of Yuan Gong. ”

Zuo Yan didn't know this, he had been in the Yuan Mansion for so many years, and he had offended many people because of his upright personality, so he was never able to be promoted. Later, he ran into a lot of walls, slowly erased a little edges and corners, and also sharpened his sleek temperament, but in his bones he was still different from those who saw the wind and steered and climbed up by unscrupulous means, so he greatly offended Feng Tong on the ship.

Who is Feng Tong? That is Yuan Jie's most heartfelt person, offending him, in fact, he has already announced the end of his future in the Yuan Mansion, so Xu You's words are not alarmist.

"If you offend, you will be offended," Zuo Yan smiled bitterly: "It's a big deal to be my soldier, as long as you can receive a salary, enough to support yourself!" ”

Xu You raised his eyebrows and said, "The military waiter didn't have a family?" "It is said that he is in his thirties, although he is a lowly family, but he is attached to a wealthy family, ranks in the army, and the salary and silver he receives and the usual rewards are already higher than the living standards of ordinary Qi people, and even some officials in the government cannot be compared.

"I have married two wives, but both of them fell ill one after another, leaving a son and a daughter, who also died at the age of five, and then I lost my heart in this regard."

I see, this is also a sad person. But whether you are single or not, you don't have to worry about it, Xu You sighed: "Although the military candidate is open-minded and doesn't care about these identity things, I'm afraid that the matter is coming, and the military candidate can't get it if he wants to retreat!" In order to deal with the four arrows, the hundred-man team you led suffered more than 30 casualties, and the battle damage was as high as 30 percent...... These people are in high positions and don't know about military affairs, so they don't care how powerful the four arrows are, they only know that the Yuan family, who is one of the top gate lords in the Chu State, actually killed and injured so many people when they fought against a few Jianghu guests, and it is fortunate that they are not punished, as for the position of the military and the salary, it is better not to have any hope......

Zuo Yan was shocked, it was not that he was dull, but that he was busy with the aftermath of settling the dead sergeant all day, and he didn't have time to be idle at all, so he didn't think of this layer for a while. This will be reminded by Xu You, and he will immediately become like a pins and needles, he does not have many friends in the Yuan Mansion, and even fewer friends, but many people look at him unpleasantly, and if he really wants to be held accountable, there is no one to help him speak. Take 10,000 steps back, even if others don't fall into the well, they will definitely say some cynical gossip, with his character, he would rather bend than bend, how can he stand the abuse? .

"I'm going to see Lord Lang and explain the matter......" Zuo Yan stood up, obviously out of order.

Xu You was a little unbearable, but he still poured a basin of cold water, extinguished his last hope, and said, "As soon as I saw Yuan Gong, I proposed to compensate the soldiers who died in battle......

"What did Lord Lang say?" There was an expectant look in Zuo Yan's eyes.

"He was a little impatient, saying that this matter was not in a hurry, and that he would discuss it later, and then he never mentioned it again!"

Zuo Yan sat down dejectedly, looking dazed, his life has already been equated with Yuan's, metaphysical dignity, glory, dreams of making contributions, metaphysical survival, food and clothing as a person's basic decency, are closely related to Yuan's, from blood to bone marrow are all fused together, so once you know that you may be stripped out of this group, the surging impact can be imagined.

"Don't be too pessimistic, with your cultivation and intelligence, the world is so big, where can't you go?" Xu You comforted.

Zuo Yan was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "Although our subordinates are not completely equivalent to slaves, they are not Qi people with household registration, in the eyes of Lord Lang, there is actually no difference between them and slaves, where can there be real freedom?" Since he is attached to the Yuan family, since the beginning of my life, generations of descendants are the domestic slaves of the Yuan family, Lang Jun said that the world is big, but there is never a place for fugitive slaves, let alone the fugitive slaves of the Yuan family, who dares to take them in, and who dares to reuse them? Rather than being like a lost dog and terrifying all day long, it is better to let it be disposed of, and the worst result is to be reduced to a tenant and go to the manor to farm. ”

This is the sorrow of the times, under the control of the politics of the gate valve, the public door has the public, the secretary has the secretary, the high door Hua valve, the glory of the world, the surname is cold, and there is no way to enter. What's more, Zuo Yan is a personal unit between Qi Min and slaves, even if he is highly skilled, but the Yuan family, who has a big business, is not ordinary, except for accepting his fate, what can he do?

As soon as I thought of years of hard work, fighting to the death, just to live up to my life, but who knew that I had been promoted all the way to the army, only to know that the most people in this world were flies and dogs, and within the gate, up and down were estranged, once a villain made a stumbling block, the final outcome was like him, there was no way to complain, and he was wronged, and then he wasted his life.

At this thought, Zuo Yan was discouraged, and at this moment, Xu You suddenly said: "If Zuo Junhou really has plans to leave here, in front of Yuan Gong, he can turn around on his behalf, and I dare not guarantee anything else, but at least I will return you to the identity of Qi Min!" ”

Zuo Yan suddenly raised his head, looked at Xu You, and said in a trembling voice: "Lang Jun......"

"It's just that you have to figure it out, although a helpless Qi Min, although he is freer, may not be as good as being a slave and a servant in the Yuan family."

After the ups and downs of this moment, Zuo Yan's mentality has long been thought about and understood, his character is like this, and he will never come out of the Yuan family, not to mention that this time he killed the four arrows, it is very likely that he will have no success, once he is punished as a tenant, he will really become a slave. If you want to be able to restore the identity of Qi Min, with his skills in the six grades, whether it is plowing the field or being a businessman, he can always eat a full meal, why bother to look at the color of people here?

He is a martial arts person, he is decisive, and he has a certain mind, so he immediately got up, knelt on the ground with his hands folded, and said, "Wanglangjun save me!" ”
