Without a Trace Volume 7 Capture the Heir Chapter 4 Temptation
、、、、、、、
The treasure hunt of the wind without a trace did not go smoothly, and because of the concern for Zhan Pohan, he could only act cautiously, lest he be exploited by others. Since finding the bones a few times, the Immortal has an extra mind, often pretending to probe the tone of those veterans, intentionally or unintentionally.
Because he was cold and not good at words by nature, he always pulled Xu Chun and them to accompany him, and several guards and those soldiers made friends, and it was much more convenient to act.
Yuling Heavy Land is naturally not trivial, and after pondering for a long time, he finally concluded that Su Chang and Qiao Qingbei could not have made much action at that time. It must be known that Su Chang will still want to take out the gold in the future, so he will never bury it in the mausoleum or other places where there is too much interference. If this is the case, the stone monument that Bishan once confessed to back then is indeed the most likely place. However, these days he has searched almost all the things made of stone, from steles to pillars, and even larger stones, and in the end he has found nothing. Could it be that Rausch's fortune was really just a rumor? Ying Jue shook his head slowly, with his understanding of Lao Jie and this person's status in the Su family, things should not be empty rumors.
Since he can't figure it out, he doesn't bother to use his brain anymore, he is just a character who obeys people's orders, and it is better to leave the errand with such ideas to others. Although Shi Jingqi stayed in Beijing to take charge of the overall situation, Feng Wuxian had other staff members around him, and this matter could not be hidden all the time, even Xu Chun and they should inform it as soon as possible. He thought about all sorts of thoughts as he swept towards the place where Wind Without a Trace lived.
When it was still far away, he saw many soldiers standing in front of Feng Ningju, and his heart couldn't help but tighten. Although the wind is without a trace, there is no sign of falling out of favor at all. But it is not a good errand to come to guard the tomb, even if he knows the inside story, he is still always vigilant. See this posture at this time. He knew that Zhan Pohan had arrived, so he couldn't help but be a little worried. For this almost capricious person. He doesn't value it as much as his master, you must know that Feng Wuzhao was planted in the hands of this person back then, in case things change, God knows if this person will be stabbed in the back again.
Although the soldiers at the door are all highly alert masters, they are familiar with the road and have excellent skills. They still didn't notice it, so they let him hide it without incident.
Zhan Pohan listened to the emperor's will almost in disbelief, such a light piece of paper could send him to the blue sky in an instant. With the title of a general soldier and a squire of the military department, there was almost no such precedent in the imperial court, and it was not until this moment that he really realized that he was still so important as a good at commanding troops to fight. However, this decree did not come sooner or later, but it was delivered when the wind was guarding the cemetery without a trace. What's the deeper purpose?
Feng Wuxian was also a little confused, and in the afternoon, the emperor's messenger sent this secret message.
Let him read it to Zhan Pohan in person. That's fine, but the grade of this squire is from the first grade, and only the deputy general who really leads the troops can get this honor, and the emperor did not bother to send someone to send this thing. It's nothing more than a big deal for yourself. However, Zhan Pohan had no more than 50,000 soldiers here, and unless he wanted to rebel, it would be useless to completely collect this group of men and horses, unless the emperor intended to transfer them elsewhere.
"The emperor is really bothered, if this will is rumored, won't those arrogant soldiers and fierce generals in the northwest make a fuss?" Zhan Pohan smiled bitterly, his face was full of self-deprecation, "Besides, this is a useless place for heroes, even if the emperor gives the last general a title of military minister, there is no place to use it." ”
Feng Wuxian raised his eyebrows, obviously a little surprised, Zhan Pohan had always behaved indifferently and reserved in front of him in the past, and his behavior today was really a little strange. If the official is not satisfied, then this person's ambition is really not a star, and he must be extra careful when using it.
"Master Zhan, you are only in your early thirties to be so reused, and it would be too much to complain about the uselessness." Feng Wuxian is half ridiculous and half serious, "Although you have been repeatedly excluded in the northwest, but now you are really short of general soldiers, as long as you are shortage, you can mix with a first-class general in just a few years, and it is easy to open a mansion and build teeth." It is indeed a good thing for men to have ambitions, but the truth that contented people are always happy has to be taken into account. ”
I didn't expect this person to be so stupid, Zhan Pohan had just passed this disrespectful thought in his heart, and the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of a smile flashing at the corner of Feng Wushu's mouth. was able to survive under the exclusion of the generals in the northwest, Zhan Pohan was already familiar with the world, and at this time, he immediately realized that the other party was testing himself, and he couldn't help but tremble in his heart. At this moment, he no longer dared to underestimate this prince, compared to Feng Wuzhao, whether it was the city or the knowledge, Feng Wuxian was too strong. Suddenly, he heard a faint breathing, and he was already a little frightened
Almost subconsciously, he pulled the wind without a trace and flashed into the corner.
Feng Wuxian was stunned for a moment, and then showed an intriguing smile. "Hell, what are you hiding and hiding when you come back? Didn't you see that you were shocked by Lord Zhan, come out quickly, what kind of rules are you like this? As soon as the words fell, I saw a black shadow flash in front of me, and I appeared in front of the two of them with a cold and solemn aura. I saw his shining cold eyes staring at Zhan Pohan, as if he wanted to see through this person.
Zhan Pohan, who woke up to his gaffe, couldn't help but feel a sense of annoyance and anger, he usually thought that he was superior in force, and rarely put the first-class guards in his eyes, and at this time, he saw that he sneaked to his side and noticed the figure, and he couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Not only that, but so many soldiers outside the door didn't even see how a big living person could enter, and it would be terrible if it was a first-class Assassin figure.
If he changes his style and earnestly investigates it without a trace or takes advantage of the situation, he may not be able to escape the responsibility of dereliction of duty this time. Somehow, when he saw the prince's smiling expression, he felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.
"Your Highness, please forgive the last general for dereliction of duty." Zhan Pohan knelt down on one knee and apologized, "If it weren't for the Hades Lord sneaking here, if His Highness had any mistakes, then he would have died and could not atone for his sins." ”
"Okay, Lord Zhan, you don't have to worry about this little thing all the time, this king is not a person like Feng Wuzhao." Feng Wuxian suddenly said bluntly, "Since my father has entrusted you with the safety of many people here, this king will not be suspicious all day long. This king is confident that he is above board, and he will not have too many grudges, and with the protection of your elite soldiers, there should be no difference. As for the Underworld, he is unaccustomed to being elusive, and he has always been this character, so you don't have to pay attention to him. ”
Zhan Pohan raised his head in astonishment, facing Feng Wuxian solemn gaze, and a trace of realization flashed in his heart. Should he surrender his loyalty so quickly, he suddenly felt that his previous pretense of being high was so ridiculous. It is impossible for a child of the royal family like Feng Wuxian not to know his performance in the Feng Wuzhao case back then, and blindly pretending to be indifferent or tentative will only reduce his value even more. No matter what the position is or what it is, what he hopes for most is always to lead thousands of troops and horses to fight on the battlefield.
"Your Highness is magnanimous, and the last general will be grateful, but in the future, if you are sent, you will definitely obey your orders!"
Zhan Pohan bowed his head deeply, "The last general has gone astray before, I just hope that His Royal Highness can be more considerate of the last general's usefulness." ”
Although there are not many words, such weak words come from the mouth of a fierce general, and Feng Wuxian still has an incredible feeling. Speaking of his current situation and Feng Wuzhao back then, it is strikingly similar, both are the queen's concubines, and they were both sent to remote places, the difference is that the queen mother is now in full swing, and his father seems to love him more than he is jealous. In this way, the risk of Zhan Pohan following him is much lower than back then. He smiled to himself, bent down and picked up this general who had galloped across the field and made countless meritorious contributions.
"Lord Zhan, it's nothing more than helping each other in the same boat, so there is no need to say more kind words." Feng Wuxian showed a sincere smile, "What you pay attention to as an official is nothing more than your heart, as long as this king can promise you a future, not trap you in disloyalty and injustice, and do not deceive each other, then you can be informalized for big things." It has to be said that it is quite a pity to show the talents of adults and never meet a true appreciator other than his father. In the future, you don't need to go to the soup and go to the fire, as long as you can remember today's words. As for the distinction between the upper and lower, it is natural to abide by the rules in front of outsiders, and it is okay to be casual when no one is around, and this kind of thing is not to be put on the face, but in the heart. ”
For such a generous royal family, Zhan Pohan was really a little stunned. In the northwest, he met three royal families, Feng Huanjie was arrogant, Feng Wuzhao was arrogant, and as for Prince An, who had just been promoted, Feng Wufang was easy-going on the outside, and he couldn't figure it out in his heart, so he was almost dead to those royal children, and he couldn't imagine that he could have an unusual prince today. Zhan Pohan was respectful and respectful, "Since His Highness trusts him so much, then the general will rest assured, and in the future, he will have to rely on His Highness to support him a lot." ”
If it weren't for the fact that Feng Wuxian had studied Zhan Pohan beforehand, I am afraid that he would not have been able to establish trust in him so quickly, although this trust was still mixed with many utilitarian shadows, and he couldn't afford to think too much. For a general from a poor background, it is almost impossible to compete with the family alone, so although Zhan Pohan has the emperor as a backer, he still can't bear the loneliness and almost makes a big mistake. If he hadn't reined in the precipice early, and if he really couldn't find a reliable and warlike general right now, I'm afraid he would have been killed by a will. Since the emperor dares to make plans to re-use him, he will not lose his father's strength and vision. Lingyun Zhiwei Traceless Chapter 7 Winning the Throne Chapter 4 Temptation
