Chapter Forty-Eight: I Am a Talent

Guan Zhuofan took the car, ran to Shengbao Mansion first, and unloaded the gift. Shengbao people were twisting in Shandong, so he first asked the fourth aunt to say goodbye, and then found Mr. Liu in the Shengbao curtain.

"Mr. Liu, I don't know if my fourth uncle is still fighting well?"

"There's been no battle yet. Ke Shuai's Qin Dispatch was in the north of the Dezhou Mansion, and he had to first arrange the troops in the area around the junction of Zhili and Shandong, and squeeze the bandits to the south. Mr. Liu knew very well, "When the 5,000 men of the general soldier Li Changsong arrive, they will attack together." ”

All Guan Zhuofan wanted to know was the location of Shengbao's garrison, and he didn't ask. Now that he knows, he chose one of the secrets he had and told Mr. Liu as a feedback: "Please give my fourth uncle a breath, the emperor's body has not been very good recently, and his line can not be moved south, in case something happens, I am afraid that I will not be able to echo it." If you can, you might as well move north. ”

This kind of secret, Guan Zhuofan came from his own historical memory, and it was effortless. But in Mr. Liu's eyes, it was hard to buy, and he immediately respected Guan Zhuofan and said, "Okay, okay, I'll send someone to send it overnight." May I ask Young Master Guan, if it is to the north, where should it be moved? ”

Guan Zhuofan couldn't talk about this question, and smiled embarrassedly: "I don't know, the fourth uncle, can manage where he can do anything." ”

"There are no certain rules, roughly speaking, Zhili Shandong is considered a war zone." Mr. Liu saw that he didn't know much about military affairs, and thought that he was a military attache in Beijing, and he didn't know much about things outside, so he hurriedly took a map and spread it out in front of him, "But if it's too close to the capital, it doesn't look like a twist." ”

Guan Zhuofan compared it on the map and asked, "I don't know how far Cangzhou Mansion is from Rehe?" ”

"There are always six hundred miles."

In other words, the military report of 600 miles of urgency can arrive in one day. Guan Zhuofan nodded, didn't break it, and said with a smile: "Mr. Liu, I just gave the fourth uncle a breath, and I don't know much about anything else." Moving the line is not a trivial matter, what to do, please consider the fourth uncle. ”

Of course, Mr. Liu understood what Guan Zhuofan meant, saying that Xingyuan should be set up at least to the front line of Cangzhou. At that moment, Nuo Nuo kept sending him out of the mansion before he said goodbye.

The next stop is Fangjiayuan. Zhaoxiang personally brought someone out to pick up the things, and then got the silver ticket of two hundred taels, with a happy face, and asked Guan Zhuofan to go in for tea.

"According to the Hou Ye, this is not a good thing," Guan Zhuofan maintained a respectful and affectionate attitude, "This is just a little respect for the old lady, if the humble position stays for a long time, I am afraid that people will say the gossip of the Hou Ye." ”

Zhao Xiang will know. Guan Zhuofan is here, although it is not considered a traffic concubine, but after all, this is the concubine's maiden home, and he is still a little suspicious. If it is known by which imperial history and plays a book, it will not be able to be drawn.

"Guan Zuoling, that's xiexie." Zhaoxiang didn't have a fight, approached Guan Zhuofan, and whispered: "I have already told my sister about the care along the way last time." ”

It's already been said...... How can it be so fast? Guan Zhuofan paused for a moment before he reacted, of course he was not talking about Concubine Yi, but the sister who became the king of alcohol.

It's okay, it's okay, Guan Zhuofan thought to himself, this sister knows, and that sister will soon know.

I turned around in the morning and felt a little tired. Fortunately, Bao Jun's house is usually to wait until the day before the road, so you can go home for dinner and have a good rest.

After entering the house, he came to the main hall and saw that the food was all set, and Bai and Ming were still waiting for him to eat. Seeing their smiling appearances, Guan Zhuofan put the frustration of waiting all night in the air last night to the back of his mind, thinking, isn't it my turn tonight? Suddenly he felt an appetite and was about to move, but Toeber hurried in again.

"Master, that Yang Tingye in Lord Bao's mansion is here."

If Yang Tingcha brought, Lord Bao asked Guan Zuoling to go in the evening, and he might as well be later.

Why not later? Guan Zhuofan held his breath in his throat.

Most of the "blessings of Qi people" tonight are in the soup again.

According to Baojun's instructions, Guan Zhuofan arrived at Baojun's mansion "a little later", and while being led inside by Yang Tingcha, he thought that Baojun was becoming more and more cautious. He didn't know, but this was out of King Gong's advice, his chess piece was too important to King Gong now, and he couldn't afford to lose.

Entering Bao Jun's study, Guan Zhuofan found that in addition to Bao Jun, there was another person present, and Bao Jun, a senior member of the first product, actually sat under him! Looking at the person carefully, he was lightly furrowed, sparse and beautiful, and he remembered it after a little stunned, and he couldn't help but feel a stirring in his heart: It's Prince Gong!

"See the prince!" Guan Zhuofan took a step back, lifted the front hem of his robe, and made a big salute.

The prince's etiquette is dignified, and the courtesy is not a hundred bureaucrats, and it is reasonable to practice the etiquette of kneeling and bowing six times. In order to show his favor, King Gong waited for him to kowtow three times, then waved his hand and said, "Okay, get up and sit down!" ”

In front of the prince, of course, a fifth-grade official can only stand and serve, how can there be any reason to sit? Guan Zhuofan was about to excuse himself, but Baojun smiled and said, "Yixuan, let you sit down, you can sit, the prince still has something to say." ”

"Yes."

King Gong saw Guan Zhuofan sitting diagonally, with his hands on his knees, his atmosphere was calm, not at all like the panicked appearance of the official who saw him for the first time, and secretly praised in his heart: It seems that he is a talent. I picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea, and as soon as I opened my mouth, I went straight to the topic.

"Yixuan, you have a lot of credit for that article in the lobby of the Ministry of Rites!" King Gong's tone was crisp and neat, and he didn't have the usual official tone in officialdom, "Do you know that Weishenme only promoted you to a sixth grade?" ”

"Back to the words of the prince, Lord Bao has instructed that the lowly position is still young, and this is the tempering of the lowly position."

"That's a good word, but it's not just because of that. Since the founding of this dynasty, there have been many young and high-ranking commanders and generals. King Gong stared at him and said, "Do you know that it is because of weishenme?" ”

"If you go back to the prince's words, I don't know if you are humble."

"Because if I promote you to the rank of official, Su Shun will know that you are my person, and he will be wary of you, and you will not be able to do anything!"

King Gong said this sentence without any scruples, which was equivalent to showing his hole cards, not only showing him as "my person", but also openly naming Su Shun's name. Guan Zhuofan thought to himself, the organization is finally going to admit me!

After King Gong said this, he smiled and asked, "Yixuan, do you think you are my person?" ”

It's a word that can't be answered incorrectly. Guan Zhuofan thought about it for a while, left his seat to say goodbye, and said respectfully: "The prestige of the prince, the mountains look up, even foreigners have to admire." If the humble function has to be attached to the tail, it will be followed all his life, although he has no regret for giving up this body. ”

King Gong and Bao Jun glanced at each other, and they both had the same idea in their hearts: This Guan Zhuofan can lead troops to fight, write well, can speak foreign languages, and even the sycophants are not leaky, and the meaning of being willing to take risks in Rehe is also expressed very thoroughly - where did such a character come from?

Thinking so, I am still relieved after all. King Gong smiled, motioned for him to get up, and said, "Okay, if you have this heart, I will naturally fulfill you." You should know that I am a man who never treats my subordinates badly! As long as you are honest about serving the country, within half a year, I will definitely give you an explanation-"

Guan Zhuofan was excited in his heart: the reward was about to hang.

"If you are willing to continue to lead the troops, you can pick one of the left and right flanks of the infantry army's yamen; If you are willing to enter politics, then the Prime Minister's Affairs Yamen, I will ensure that you learn to walk on the minister's office! ”

This reward is incredibly heavy! Guan Zhuofan was surprised, and when he looked at King Gong again, his face was full of the heroic pleasure of the noble prince waving his hand, and he knew that he was not lying.

Bao Jun saw him stunned, and reminded him with a smile: "Yixuan, thank you." ”

Guan Zhuofan reacted at this time, so he had to kneel down and kowtow to King Gong again: "Thank you for the reward!" "I thought, from the time I crossed to the present, Lao Tzu's head has kowtowed, not a hundred but eighty, only this one head is the most worthwhile.

Bao Jun waited for him to return to his seat and said: "Yixuan, the general soldier is a military position of the second grade, and it is a matter of the prince's words to be the commander for two or three years. The Prime Minister's National Affairs Yamen was newly established, and you probably don't know much about it - the minister of affairs is learning to walk, and he is at least a civil official of the third grade! The promotion of the prince is not only to reward you for your future contributions, but also to value your martial arts and literature, which is a rare talent. ”

Guan Zhuo Fan said in his heart, your Lord Bao is right, I know astronomy, I know geography, I know all the things of five thousand years, even the Prime Minister's Affairs Yamen is probably much clearer than your Lord Bao, so he can naturally be regarded as a talent. But these words, just put them in your heart and say them, and you can't even mention them on your lips.

"Lord Xiexie! Xiexie Po-sama! Please ask the prince to show me again, what should I do in my humble position? ”

"I only ask you one thing: If the country is in trouble in the future, and there are people in Rehe, what will you do with Guan Zhuofan?" Gong Wang Jun asked in a loud voice.

"The lowly team of five hundred horses is all for the prince to drive!" Guan Zhuofan replied loudly without hesitation.

Say a thousand, say ten thousand, all you want is his words. King Gong and Bao Jun both showed satisfied smiles on their faces.
