Chapter 88: Young General
I have to say that the first impression left by the young man in front of him was very good, but Li Qing could not judge the truth or falsehood of the words of the previous sword gate guard, and if he wanted to know, he needed further testing. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Li Qing looked at the Sword Gate guard and said with a smile: "But I don't know, what is Ling Lang called?" Although he repeatedly warned himself not to think too much, but looking at the fat body of the Sword Gate Guard, and then looking at the very thin young man not far away, if it wasn't for the Sword Gate Guard's own words, Li Qing really couldn't imagine that the two people standing in front of him at this moment, one fat and one thin, formed a clear contrast, were actually father and son!
Seeing the satisfied look in Li Qing's eyes, the Jianmen guard hurriedly smiled and said: "Dog, the surname is Mu Mingfan, and his own talent is rude and makes the general laugh!" ”
Listening to the humility of the Sword Gate Guard, Li Qing smiled and shook his head, as a tiger general, he didn't give his son any names such as hammer, stick, and three treasures, which is enough to see that the Sword Gate Guard has spent a lot of effort on naming his son.
Looking at the leopard in the tube, you can also see that the Sword Gate Keeper attaches great importance to Mu Fan, after all, since Mu Fan appeared in front of everyone, the Sword Gate Guard's words and deeds all reveal a father's heartfelt concern for his son, and that kind of care can still be easily discovered even if it is hidden in every possible way.
Looking at the pair of fathers and sons in front of him, Li Qing had a kind of envy from the bottom of his heart, he had such an opportunity, maybe he couldn't enjoy the so-called "pleasure" of thousands of people bowing down to him, and the life of fine clothes and jade food, but he could enjoy the most real family happiness of father and son in the world.
In an ordinary home, you can occasionally get angry with your parents and make trouble, without worrying that your parents will not like you because of this, which will affect your status; But since he came to Datang and became the owner of this body, all Li Qing has seen is fighting for power and profit, deceit, and the arrogant and luxurious life of wealthy nobles has suffocated Li Qing for a while.
Fortunately, Princess Wei Yanyu is like a green lotus that is not stained by the mud, no matter how depressed the previous Shouwang was, how self-defeating, the princess always took care of Li Qing without untying her clothes, and when everyone gave up Shouwang, only she was struggling to insist and always followed Li Qing.
Calm and elegant, the world is as light as a lotus, if there is no company with her, even if Li Qing can go all the way, he will definitely be physically and mentally exhausted!
Shaking his head with a wry smile, he has always been thinking involuntarily recently, forcibly suppressing the thoughts in his heart, Li Qing looked at Mu Fan in front of him with a smile and said: "I heard that General Mu said that more than ordinary sergeants in this Sword Gate were trained by Major General Mu Fan, I don't know if it's true or not?" “
Li Qing asked very directly, and it seemed that Li Qing's title was very awkward, only to see the young man named Mu Fan frowning and saying: "Your Highness, don't call Mu Fan a "young general", although Mu Fan's wish is to be a general who can open up territory for my Tang Dynasty and protect tens of millions of people like General Wang, the king of the dynasty, but now Mu Fan is still an ordinary soldier, I hope Your Highness will not misunderstand!" ”
Hearing that the young man in front of him had such a grand dream, Li Qing really didn't expect it, after all, it wasn't something anyone who wanted to become, it can be said that eight or even nine of the ten generals in the Tang Dynasty now want to be like Wang Zhongsi, and the remaining one is still determined to surpass Wang Zhongsi.
Now Wang Zhongsi has become a mountain that cannot be crossed in front of the Tang Dynasty generals, think about his brilliant military life, it is exciting, with the power of one person to push the family behind him to the five top gates in Beijing, looking at the government and the opposition, now there are two, one is the first and auxiliary prime minister of the Tang Dynasty Li Linfu, and the other is Wang Zhonghei General Wang!
Compared with Li Linfu's shamelessness, and Wang Zhongsi is completely a role model for countless aspiring men in the Tang Dynasty, after all, a man who joins the military to make meritorious contributions will be prosperous and rich if he wins, and if he loses, he will be shrouded in horse leather and die on the battlefield, such a destination is the best destination for men!
At the peak of Wang Zhonghe, he served as the envoy of Hedong, Shuofang, Hexi, and Longyou four towns, one person wore the seal of four generals, controlled the territory of thousands of miles, and his protégés were all over the world, and there were nearly half of the Tang Dynasty's hundred battles under his command, think about what a scenery this is.
And with such a character as an example, it is enough to see that the young man in front of him also has his unknown ambitions, and Li Qing can also see that the young man in front of him is not talking casually, but is really working hard in this direction step by step!
If it is true, as his father said, half of the guards at the Sword Gate Pass are trained by the young man in front of him who seems to have just come of age, then I am afraid that the young man in front of him may really become the "second heir of Wang Zhong" in his lifetime. It was precisely because he took a fancy to the extraordinaryness of the young man in front of him that Li Qing was more curious about the young man at the moment, hoping that he would not let himself down.
Finally, in Li Qing's expectant eyes, the young man said the answer Li Qing wanted, looking at the young man's plain face, as if he was narrating an inconsequential matter, Li Qing secretly thought in his heart: If it wasn't for the disguise, the young man in front of him could be so calm at such an age, and he would definitely be a rare general in the future!
Looking at the young man in front of him, Li Qing once again asked: "With Mu Fan's military ability, plus your father is also a sword gate guard, why are you just a small soldier now?" "
Hearing Li Qing's question, the impatient face at this level also looked even more impatient, but he still responded: "I chose to join the army not because my father was a general, but more because the profession of a soldier makes me feel honored, and the army is also a stage for me to display my ambitions, I am not one of those gentlemen who rely on my father's generation, what I want, I will definitely work hard with my own hands!" The boy's voice was not loud, but the words were loud.
Hearing the words of the young man in front of him, Li Qing nodded for a while, so far, the young man's performance has made Li Qing very satisfied, it seems that the previous young man did not tell a lie.
Li Qing took away that elegant coat, replaced it with a kind of strength that has never been seen in a high position all the year round, and said with one hand: "If you really have this ambition, this king will definitely fulfill you, and when the time comes, your Mu family will definitely become the second "Wang family"!"
Hearing Li Qing's promise, the joy on the face of the Jianmen guards on the side was difficult to hide for a while, as a general for the "Wang family" in Chang'an City, the Jianmen guards often have a certain sense of awe, but now someone told himself that he could one day also become such an existence, and the person who told him was still the Shouwang of the Tang Dynasty, who he thought was the most likely to inherit the Tang Dynasty after a hundred years, and the excitement of the Jianmen guards at the moment could not be suppressed!
What the Jianmen guards have to do at this moment is to announce their loyalty to His Royal Highness King Shou in front of him, only to see that the Jianmen guards hurriedly pulled the young man next to him to kneel to Li Qing, but the young man was like a javelin, no matter how the Jianmen guards pulled him, he always stood and did not kneel, seeing that he couldn't do anything, the Jianmen guards had to give up, so he knelt down to Li Dian and said: "If His Royal Highness Shouwang can really do this, my Mu father and son will definitely saddle the horse for His Royal Highness in the future, and fight in the east and west. The five thousand elites of this Sword Gate Pass will also become the most solid backing behind His Highness! "
Although the Sword Gate Guards declared their allegiance to themselves, both Li Qing and the Sword Gate Guards knew very well that this was just a formality, and if Li Qing could not come up with a certain remuneration in the future, then the so-called allegiance of the Sword Gate Guards today would have no real meaning.
