The people who gathered in the hall were all middle and high-ranking generals in the army, and those Confucian officials were all arranged in the side hall.

Qin Qigong saw Zhao Dangshi's color change and asked, "Du Envoy, is there something?" ”

Zhao Dangshi smiled and said: "It's okay, you drink first, I'll come when I go." After speaking, he left the table. At that time, the generals were in high spirits, but no one paid attention to them, and those who occasionally caught a glimpse only thought that Zhao Dangshi was in a hurry to relieve his hands.

The guard led the way, and in a short time he entered the side hall, and as soon as he entered the hall, he saw that the two of them were rolling on the ground, and they were entangled together, while the rest of the Confucian scholars, with panicked faces, gathered together in one place whispering and at a loss.

As soon as everyone saw Zhao Dangshi coming, they all bowed and saluted, and a person walked out of the crowd and approached: "Envoy, Brother Liu's life is on the verge of death, and I hope for first aid." ”

Zhao Dangshi looked at the two people on the ground, but wasn't it He Kewei and Liu Xiaohong? I don't know why, regardless of Sven sweeping the floor, he actually scuffled into a ball, and asked, "This is?" ”

The person who came out to speak was a descendant of the Yan clan of the Shizhou Weisu clan who entered the Zhao camp in the same quality as Liu Xiaohong, and Zhao Dangshi remembered the name and called Yan Licheng. Yan Licheng's face was pale, and he said with a bitter face: "Master He and Brother Liu had a quarrel on the table, and when they didn't agree with each other, they fought. And lamented, "Brother Liu's old injuries have not healed, if he fights too quickly, he is afraid that he will tear open the wound and his life will be in danger." ”

Liu Xiaohong was rescued by suicide, after treatment, raised for a few days, and recovered well, but after all, the days were short, and he definitely couldn't stand such a toss, Zhao Dangshi knew it in his heart, and shouted: "Two, you can stop!" ”

He Kewei and Liu Xiaohong were engrossed in the fight, and they didn't even pay attention to Zhao Dangshi's entry. At this time, he suddenly heard a shout, He Ked's heart was terrified, he reacted like an electric shock, spread his hands, got up with a rolling belt, and kept saying: "I don't know if the envoy is coming, it's rude, it's rude!" As he spoke, his lips opened slightly, his nose opened, and he peeked up in panic.

After he let go, Liu Xiaohong prostrate on the ground and gasped for a few breaths, and slowly got up. Although he was covered in dust and his white shirt was nearly half dirty, he was still graceful, patted up and down unhurriedly, and Xu said: "Xiaosheng has seen all the envoys." ”

Zhao Dangshi looked at him carefully, made sure that he was fine, breathed a sigh of relief, and asked: "What is the feud between the two of you, which cannot be resolved amicably, but you can follow the market?" ”

When He and Liu heard this, they raised their eyebrows and faced each other, and after each snorted coldly, they both pursed their lips and said nothing, but they still stood up to explain for them. Zhao Dangshi couldn't cry or laugh when he heard it. It turned out that the purpose of gathering these Confucian students in the side hall was to fear that they would not speculate with the generals in the main hall and be bullied.

He Kewei was the chief civil servant in the camp, and he intended to establish his authority in front of newcomers such as Liu Xiaohong and Yan Licheng, and used the excuse to provoke them with two henchmen. Standing sleek, but Liu Xiaohong is an unyielding master, who does not show weakness and ridicules each other. Although He Kewei is old, after all, he is not as brilliant as Liu Xiaohong, and he quickly lost his armor and abandoned his armor. Liu Xiaohong gained power for a while, and the resentment of these days poured out, and he despised He Kewei City Fox Society Rat, and he still did not spare and aggressive. Scolding to the head of the rise, even if it is a bitter persuasion, it has no effect. How can he be afraid that this is not what it used to be, how can he be allowed to repeatedly make things difficult and insulting, scold and scold, and simply roll up his sleeves in anger.

Liu Xiaohong's body was still weak after his injury, and he was young and strong, and he could only resist He Kewei. If it weren't for Zhao Dangshi's earlier arrival, the scarred wound would probably have been broken.

According to everyone's opinion, He Kewei is in the rear department, and he is in charge of important positions such as the allocation of money and food in the middle camp, and his status is far beyond Liu Xiaohong, who is still a hostage. Yan Licheng couldn't help but tremble when he thought of this section, and squinted at Liu Xiaohong, but saw that he was still standing proudly like a nobody.

"All envoys, what is the main book. Liu Xiaohong is not more serious, he doesn't know how high the sky is, and he deserves to be punished heavily. However, thinking that he has just recovered from his serious injuries, it is not appropriate to punish him severely, and I hope that he will be tolerant and will be dealt with in the future. Yan Licheng knew the backbone character of his classmate and best friend, and he expected that he would rather die than whisper weakness, so he risked being implicated and pleaded for him.

He Ke was arrogant, took advantage of the victory to pursue, and pointed at Liu Xiaohong and said: "Since you are injured, why are you still rough with me?" It can be seen that it is not an excuse to say that there is an injury. You have no official position and no position, you dare to mess around like this, not because you look down on my surname He, but because you look down on me Zhao Ying! ”

As soon as these words came out, those Confucian scholars in Shizhou, led by Liu Xiaohong, looked at Zhao Dangshi in horror, for fear that he would listen to the slander, so they dragged Liu Xiaohong out and cut him in anger.

As a party, Liu Xiaohong was indifferent and silent. Yan Licheng was anxious, hinting that he was about to kneel and beg for mercy after several invalid times, but who knew that Zhao Dangshi said first: "Hmm." There is no first, there is no second, Master He and Mr. Liu are both the pillars of our camp, why do you insist on dividing them up and down? If you want me to say, the two have their own strengths and weaknesses, and they go hand in hand. Isn't it self-degrading to be angry about trivial things? As he spoke, he took two steps up, holding He Kewei with his left hand and Liu Xiaohong with his right hand, and put their hands together with a smile, "Since the two of them are working in the same camp, there will inevitably be some differences." In the future, if you can negotiate, you can negotiate by yourself, and if you can't, even if you come to me, I will deal with it impartially. Today's matter, when the two of them don't know each other, they drank a bowl of harmonious wine, released their suspicions, and worked together to strengthen my Zhao Ying. ”

He Kewei and Liu Xiaohong looked at each other with wide eyes, each surprised. But stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, how can he be afraid or angry, Liu Xiaohong is unhappy, and in this situation, he can't say it. Yan Licheng's eyes were quick, and he immediately poured two bowls of wine and brought them over, and said respectfully: "There are all envoys to prove that Brother Liu and Master He ate this bowl, and the front gap was written off, and they only wanted to serve Zhao Ying in the future!" ”

Zhao Dangshi took the wine with a smile and stuffed it into the hands of the two.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhao Dangshi is superficially and muddy, but actually favors Liu Xiaohong. Liu Xiaohong is a newcomer, he has no roots and no foundation, what to do against him? Beating the middle and high-ranking of the army, it is already an amnesty to be able to get away with his life, and then listening to Zhao Dangshi's words, what "are all my pillars and talents", "go hand in hand", etc., obviously put the two on the same level and treat them, it is not good that in the near future, Liu Xiaohong will be able to get an important real position in the battalion, which is nothing less terrible.

He Ked's hope was disappointed, and he was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, but Zhao Dangshi did not humiliate him, and he didn't dare to speak out again; Liu Xiaohong is upright, but he is not a stunned person who is ignorant of the world, he has the opportunity to withdraw calmly, and he also gets off the donkey down the slope and is angry. Therefore, after a short pause, both of them did not hesitate to drink the wine in their bowls.

The two showed each other empty bowls, Zhao Dangshi laughed, took the two again, and whispered a few words. He Kewei was very serious and nodded again and again; Liu Xiaohong's eyes wandered, and he didn't answer silently.

Yan Licheng was on the side, and he was not happy to see that this matter was over. He is not as good as Liu Xiaohong, he is the pearl of the clan, he is just the second son in the family. His father loves the young, and his second child has been neglected since he was a child, so he is not as resistant to Zhao Ying as Liu Xiaohong. In order to get more resources and be valued, his ability to observe words and emotions and behave in the world that he has cultivated over the years is not comparable to Liu Xiaohong and others. Now that he was imprisoned in Zhao Ying, it was a foregone conclusion, and he had figured it out, rather than resisting to the death, it was better to adapt to the environment and take the initiative to cooperate. He always believed in the truth that there was no way to be endless, even if he hated thieves, he would not be happy or angry. Because only by patience can there be a chance to get out.

The twists and turns came to an end, He Kewei and Liu Xiaohong had a grudge against each other, and they didn't want to sit at the same table anymore, so they left one after another, and Yan Licheng and others also left, leaving few Confucian scholars.

This matter can be handled in this way, and Zhao Dangshi has done his best. Most of the Confucian scholars are arrogant, and Liu Xiaohong is the best among them. Zhao Ying's logistics now need such a capable but bad-tempered person to restrain him, how terrible. Look at that Yan Licheng again, he is very practiced, with him by Liu Xiaohong's side to plan adjustments, no matter how bad the relationship between He and Liu is, it will be difficult to cross the thunder pool and make a big mistake.

Even if Liu Xiaohong resists Zhao Ying, he can only accept reality. Zhao Dangshi calculated what position he would give him next, so that he could really have the capital to fight against He Kewei's one-party team. While thinking about walking, two people suddenly said in their ears: "I've seen all the envoys." ”

Zhao Dangshi raised his eyes and saw that it was Bai Jiaolong and Liu Weiming, and asked casually, "Why are you two here?" ”

Liu Weiming said with a smile: "The two of me were fighting too fast, and I had some urine for a while, so I went to the thatched house together." When I heard a movement here, I looked at it. ”

Zhao Dangshi had something in his heart, so he walked away with a sigh.

Liu Weiming waited for him to walk away, and said in a low voice: "Did you see the scene?" ”

Bai Jiaolong glanced at him: "Didn't we see it together." ”

At the moment, there were still some people walking around, Liu Weiming pulled Bai Jiaolong to the side of a small pool next to a dark alley, and said: "What I said is not this, I mean that you can see the attitude towards the surname Liu?" ”

Bai Jiaolong was not stupid, and bowed slightly: "Well, they all deliberately favor the surname Liu, but he is afraid of touching a gray nose." ”

"yes. Compared with He Kewei, they all obviously value Liu Xiaohong. Liu Weiming's eyes rolled.

"So what?"

Liu Weiming looked around and said: "You and I are in Zhao Ying, named General Manager, but look at Hou Dagui, Xu Hui and others, which one puts the two of us in his eyes?" Is this general position sitting securely? ”

Bai Jiaolong felt that his words had a deep meaning, and immediately changed his appearance and lowered his voice: "What do you mean by this?" ”

"I'm thinking, just the two of us, it's still inevitable that we are a little lonely, Liu Xiaohong is a celebrity, if you can win him over, it will be of great benefit."

"No, no!" Before he finished speaking, Bai Jiaolong was a little flustered and refused repeatedly, "Don't I know this?" But you also saw the fate of He Shihui before, and if you sneak around and do that, the next time you will be cut by the ghost knife, I'm afraid it will be you and me. ”

Liu Weiming's head shook like a rattle: "Brother's words are wrong, and I can't recognize the situation clearly." ”

"All make wise, play tricks under his nose, and will only be clever but be mistaken by cleverness."

"You'd be wrong. Let me ask you, what was the major event in the camp during these two days? ”

Bai Jiaolong was afraid of getting on fire, so he actually wanted to walk away, but Liu Weiming, who was a brother who had lived for many years, still replied patiently: "Hit the stone." ”

"This is a foreign matter, and I am asking about an internal matter."

“……”

"Why are brothers so confused, isn't it just to arrange clerks next to the generals?" Liu Weiming looked at him reproachfully.

"Oh, yes, it's ......" Bai Jiaolong suddenly realized. This is indeed an important matter. In order to help the generals assist in the military, Zhao Dangshi tried to arrange a few civilian assistants under the accounts of Hou Dagui and Xu Hui, and the facts proved that the effect was good, and their efficiency in handling military affairs was greatly improved compared with before. As a result, before fighting the stone soldiers, Zhao Dangshi began to set up wingmen in the whole army to set up assistants in all divisions above the general level, and at present, Guo Hutou, Hao Shaoqi and other divisions have already arranged this matter, Bai Jiaolong and Liu Weiming and other divisions are a little slower, and they have not picked good people.

Liu Weiming put his right hand on Bai Jiaolong's shoulder and said: "Brother, you think, you used to hide from the envoys and make friends with civil officials privately, of course it is inappropriate, but now you have made yourself set a rule, let us choose the Confucian students who assist from the rear department, and the name is right, what are you afraid of?" ”

Bai Jiaolong nodded and said, "This is reasonable. ”

Liu Weiming struck while the iron was hot: "Liu Xiaohong is not showing the dew now, let's pick a few people from him, it is reasonable, if he gains power, it will not be easy to do." Seeing that Bai Jiaolong thought so, he continued, "In this way, with his person in the middle, let's be more careful when doing things, are we still worried that we will repeat the mistakes of the past?" ”

"I can't see that my brother is so far-sighted."

Listening to Bai Jiaolong's appreciation, Liu Weiming was a little proud, and then said: "Because Master He is stupid, you better not touch He Fearful People." I see that the kid next to Liu Xiaohong is clever, so you try to transfer that person to your side. I'll go to Ho Ke Dread to find someone. We are prepared on both sides and support each other, what are you afraid of him, Hou Dagui and Xu Hui? ”

Bai Jiaolong said again and again: "What the brother said, what the brother said." If we can really make friends with He and Liu, we will not be afraid of the surname Hou in the future, and they will oppress people with their power, which will be very beneficial to the future development. "Since he gave up Yuan Tao to vote for Zhao Dangshi, what he wants is not mediocrity. The power of the Chinese officials in the camp is gradually rising, and he is also aware of it, and it is obvious that the pattern of He Ked's dominance will soon be broken by Liu Xiaojun. No matter what the two of them end up fighting into, they and Liu Weiming split up and became Austrian reinforcements, and there is a way out. The Sichuan faction in the Zhao camp may not be under Hou Dagui and their Shaanxi faction in the future.

The moon and stars are scarce, and by the small pond where the algae are intertwined, Bai and Liu are smiling at each other.
