Chapter Forty-Four: Men and Horses, and Equipment
Everyone was surprised that Lin Chong agreed to gamble, but I heard that there were three more conditions, and it seemed that Lin Chong was not stupid. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info estimated that he might want to prepare more restrictions to ensure that he could win the game.
Tong Guan was not so easily fooled, and said with a smile, "I don't know what three conditions Lin Jiaotou needs, as long as it is not excessive, the official can agree." "It is clear that the conditions for putting an end to outrageous things are implied, and it is implied that you Lin Chong must participate in this gamble.
Zhao Ji saw Lin Chong for the first time today, with a dignified appearance, amazing martial arts, and more courageous and knowledgeable, the key is to know how to advance and retreat with respect and humility.
There are too many people who dare to bet with the privy envoy Tong Guan, and this matter has become interesting, and Lin Chong can actually give people so many surprises, and he becomes more and more curious
Although the two of them were in good spirits, Lin Chong's body was in tatters, and Lu Zhishen was even more scarred, and he couldn't bear it. I thought of a reason for them to slow down and think carefully before talking.
"Li Yan, the two Aiqing have been fighting for a long time, you take it to freshen up and rest first, and then come to the lobby to talk."
Tong Guanke was still waiting for Lin Chong to faint under impulse, which would be equivalent to holding Lin Chong's little life firmly in his hands, and it was all up to his own liking to kill or chop.
But Tong Guan obviously found that Zhao Ji had a taste of pulling the bias, was he dissatisfied with me pit Lin Chong? Hurry up and explain, otherwise Zhao Ji's careful eye will definitely pit himself.
Seeing that Li Yan took the two of them away, he followed Zhao Ji, "Official, these two people are good materials, if you work hard, you will definitely be able to take charge in the future." ”
Zhao Ji didn't speak, and walked forward by himself, looking a little emotional.
Tong Guan took two steps to follow, and was about to speak, but was blocked by Zhao Ji.
"You have been with me for ten years, and I single-handedly helped you to the position of privy councillor, do you know why?"
Tong Guan was shocked in his heart, and a cold sweat fell, Zhao Ji rarely said such strict words to himself. However, based on years of experience, the best way to deal with it is to pretend to be soft.
stammered and said, "The official family, the official family, the old slave doesn't dare to be selfish, and the official family loves Lin Chong's talent and sees it in his eyes." It's just that Lin Chong is sharp and angular, and when he first arrived, he was wildly speechless, thinking of polishing it a little, so that the official family could entrust him with a heavy responsibility! ”
Zhao Ji didn't say anything after hearing this, "hummed", and finally let out a sigh, seeing Tong Guan also pitifully softened, he felt a little proud in his heart.
It's good that you are an old slave who understands, if you don't want to be a privy envoy, just say it early, there are still a lot of people lining up behind, a small seven-rank martial artist is worth your attention? Could it be that the person I like needs your consent to be promoted?
"It's good to understand! Don't dwell on the minutiae all day long, these little things can be handed over to the newcomers to do, first, you can train them to display their talents, and secondly, you can think more about the important affairs of the military state, if you can put the party and the western army on an equal footing, why not reward you with a national duke! ”
Boom! This big cake of the national prince smashed down, and Tong Guan's eyes suddenly boiled with Venus and blood.
When he woke up, he choked up and said, "The official family is benevolent, and it is difficult for the old slave to repay him if he is broken." Resign from the Northwest and vow not to return to Beijing if the party is uncertain! ”
The master and servant returned to the lobby one after the other, and the topographic maps of various military points and border towns of the Great Song Dynasty were hung on the walls. On the huge table in the center is a military topographic map of the northwest, marking the military demarcation line and the location and number of troops of each army of the Western Army.
Soon, Zhao Ji's anger subsided, and he still attached great importance to Tong Guan, "I want to hear about the situation in the northwest, and you can talk about how this war was decided."
-- Dividing line --
In the guard's bathroom, Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen bathed and cleaned.
Lu Zhishen was also very curious about which three conditions would be proposed, "Brother Xian, I don't think Tong Guan is well-intentioned." The power of the privy envoy is greater than the sky, and I am afraid it is not easy to deal with. You'll have to think about it later. ”
Lin Chong smiled slightly, "I only asked him if he wanted people, horses, and venue equipment." ”
"Ahh Just these three conditions?! ”
"That's right, give me these three conditions, and I can train a team of elites, and when I go to the northwest, I expect them to earn merit before and after the saddle."
Lu Zhi was anxious, this is simply child's play, no matter how powerful Lin Chong is, it is impossible for thirty recruits to win the Ouchi guards within a month. I managed to barely fight six with all my might, and I knew how fierce the Ouchi guards were.
"Brother Xian, if you can fight ten, it doesn't mean that these recruits can fight, you will suffer a big loss like this!"
At this time, the two Ouchi medical officers were ordered to come over to treat their wounds, and the two stopped talking.
The two of them are going to the lobby to see Zhao Ji, if the flesh and blood are blurred, the nose is blue and the face is swollen, it will inevitably affect the mood of the official family. The doctor's hands were very fast, and it didn't take much effort to clean it up, and by the way, he also helped Lin Chong clean up his hairstyle, which looked much more pleasing to the eye in the bronze mirror.
Changing into a white practice uniform, Lin Chong looked heroic and extraordinary, and Lu Zhishen also looked magnificent.
Li Yan's eyes lit up, and he tugged at the corners of his clothes for the two of them, and praised "Okay!" It is said that people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, and the two adults have really taken on a new look after cleaning up. The officials are still waiting, let's go. ”
Lin Chong took a step forward, "If it weren't for my father-in-law who arrived in time and took care of him this time, how could there be a chance for Lin to face a saint." I came in a hurry today, and I didn't have time to express my heart, if I can clear my grievances, I will naturally have a filial piety. ”
Li Yan said, "Our family has thanked Master Lin for this, listening to the tone of the official family, I am afraid that the official fortune will be prosperous soon!" But he still helped Lin Chong straighten his hair again.
Although Lin Chong felt embarrassed, after all, he was more sympathetic and tolerant of his father-in-law, a product of the times. In order to test Li Yan's attitude towards Tong Guan.
Then he asked, "I heard that Master Tong used to serve the official's family, but now he is a privy envoy, and it is difficult for others to expect it for several lifetimes." Maybe the father-in-law will be crowned a marquis. ”
Tong Guan was born as a eunuch and sat in the Privy Council, which was completely lucky, and almost impossible to replicate. So Li Yan is naturally a little red-eyed, why is he inferior in the palace, but he can be arrogant and majestic.
pursed his lips, and said with some disdain, "Master Tong is amazing, he is arrogant and ambitious, and he really has some skills." Therefore, the officials ordered him to come out to show the officials. ”
He smiled and said, "I don't have any great ambitions, I just want to serve the saint in peace and security for the rest of my life, and I will be satisfied." ”
While speaking, the three of them also climbed the steps and entered the lobby to pay homage to Zhao Ji again.
When Lin Chong saw Tong Guan, he found that the other party's face was a little unnatural, but the ferocity occasionally revealed in his eyes was afraid that he would be stimulated again.
Don't think about it too much, it's better to have a relationship with Zhao Jila first.
"The official family is above, Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen have already finished freshening up and come to obey orders."
Zhao Ji was pondering Tong Guan's northwest strategy, and always felt that there was a problem, but he couldn't see through it. happened to see Lin Chong, who was refreshed, so he said, "Okay, Lin Aiqing is really a talent, come and see, look at this topographic map." ”
saw Lu Zhishen again, and then said, "Lu Zhishen is also brave, come here!" How about this Northwest strategy? ”
