Chapter 82: Entrusting the Burden

Wei Ziyang thought about it again and again, but he still felt that there was something wrong with this matter, he had just been recruited by King Xiang for a few days, and he had to take on this important task, which was too fast.

Can King Xiang trust himself so much? Dare to hand over the military power to yourself in just a few days?

Seeing that Wei Ziyang was still worried, King Xiang stood aside in silence and smiled slightly: "Ziyang, don't hesitate, this matter is just a proposal, I will discuss it with General He later." ”

When Wei Ziyang heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, it seems that the position of this general has to sit and sit, and he has to sit if he doesn't sit, then King Xiang said on his face that it was just a proposal, and he wanted to discuss it with this He Xifeng, but who didn't know that He Xifeng was originally King Xiang's person, if King Xiang really wanted to help himself to the throne, then how could He Xifeng not agree.

Wei Ziyang is a smart person, and he knows that if King Xiang really makes up his mind, then even if he shirks it in every possible way, it will be useless, and if he doesn't do it well, it will leave a bad impression on King Xiang, so it will be more than worth the loss for himself.

In my heart, I must have replied respectfully to this Xiangwang: "Okay then." ”

King Xiang smiled, then nodded and said, "Ziyang doesn't have to worry too much, if Jingting is by your side, you will be much more relaxed." ”

When Wei Ziyang heard this, a pair of eyes looked at this Mei Jingting suspiciously, seeing that he still looked indifferent, standing quietly beside King Xiang, and thinking that this King Xiang seemed to be calling him Commander Mei just now, that is, thinking about the identity of this Mei Jingting is probably not simple.

Seeing this, Mei Jingting smiled, as if he knew that Wei Ziyang was guessing his identity, and then explained: "Mei is the commander of the guard camp under General He. ”

"Escort barracks?" Wei Ziyang was also a little surprised when he heard this, originally he thought that this Mei Jingting was just a person from the rivers and lakes, but he didn't expect him to be such a big official.

The military system of the Great Wei is the establishment of three armies, the first army is the Imperial Forest Army, responsible for protecting the safety of the emperor and the capital, the second army is the Pingxi Army, responsible for the external affairs of the association, and the last army is the Black Flag Army of Xiao Kui, the former general of the Great Wei, although the Black Flag Army is nominally the army of the Great Wei, but it only listens to Xiao Kui's orders, so the responsibilities are not as clear as the previous general.

Since Xiao Kui's rebellion was executed eleven years ago, most of the soldiers of the Black Flag Army either returned to their hometowns to farm, or joined the other two armies, so the Black Flag Army existed in name only.

Now the army in charge of He Xifeng of Great Wei is the Naping Western Army, in fact, at the beginning, He Xifeng planned to reorganize the Black Flag Army, but because Xiao Kui's influence in the army was too huge, it was also very tricky for a while, and this reorganization was over.

The Pingxi Army was divided into three battalions, namely the Forward Battalion, the Escort Battalion and the Infantry Battalion. The forward battalion is divided into two commanders on the left and right, each in charge of half of the soldiers and horses of the forward battalion, and the jade plate of the forward battalion is used as a certificate; The guard battalion is divided into a guard commander, who is in charge of military decrees, which can probably be said to be He Xifeng's escort force, which is specially used to guard the Chinese army camp; The infantry battalion is the most elite main force of the entire Pingxi Army, with three commanders and responsible for the main war.

The entire Pingxi Army, with three battalions and six leaders, plus the general He Xifeng and the vanguard general Zhou Feng, formed the most elite and most reliable foreign combat army in the entire Great Wei, so even if the Black Flag Army was not there, it could be said that it was more than enough for the Pingxi Army to resist or even conquer other countries.

That Wei Ziyang obviously also knew the military system of the Great Wei, and when he heard that the seemingly uninhibited and somewhat unfathomable Mei Jingting in front of him turned out to be the commander of the "Guardian Battalion", his eyes when he looked at him also changed, and he shook his head: "Wei really didn't expect that Brother Mei would be the commander of the dignified Pingxi Army, forgive Wei for his clumsiness, and I hope Brother Mei will not be surprised." ”

That Mei Jingting looked at him with a smile, and said with a slight bow: "It's just a false name, a false name." ”

Wei Ziyang saw that Mei Jingting looked a little fluttering, and then listened to this mouth of "false name, false name", he secretly rolled his eyes, and sure enough, like his junior sister's demon girl, he was a duplicitous guy.

Now that Wei Ziyang heard that Mei Jingting was the commander of the guard camp, he thought about it, and said to King Xiang: "Since Brother Mei is the commander of the guard camp, wouldn't it be better to let Brother Mei serve as the commander of the other route army?" Wei was worried that he was only a shallow scholar and lacked prestige, so it was really difficult for him to take on a big responsibility. ”

Hearing this, King Xiang showed a strange expression, and asked Na Mei Jingting: "Ziyang said that he wants you to take the position of this boss, are you willing?" “

"Don't don't, Your Highness, you don't know, how could I run to the position of the commander with my temperament?" Hearing this, Mei Jingting hurriedly shook his head and said, waving his hand as he spoke, as if he was very anxious.

When King Xiang heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he explained helplessly to Wei Ziyang: "Ziyang, look, this person is like this, if you expect him to go, it is better for you to go." “

Wei Ziyang looked at this Mei Jingting's shirk in every possible way, and he was also very helpless in his heart, and couldn't help but think in his heart, how did this Mei Jingting become the commander of the military camp? It can't be a bribe, right?

Of course, this is just a joke, after all, if you want to be the commander of the military protection camp, you need to have some skills, how can this person who has no ability look at He Xifeng? And this Mei Jingting is just a capable person.

Wei Ziyang was still very impressed by the trick "Hundred Miles Kill".

"Then Wei has to take on this heavy responsibility. Brother Mei, please give me a lot of advice. That Wei Ziyang looked at Mei Jingting and King Xiang, and said categorically.

King Xiang smiled and didn't speak, but Mei Jingting's eyelids jumped, and then he showed a faint smile.

The night breeze blows, and the garden is cool.

After Wei Ziyang left, King Xiang glanced at Mei Jingting, and then walked towards the main hall in the courtyard.

As soon as he walked into the main hall, he saw that Guo Jiang was standing in the center of the main hall in a panic, looking very nervous, and when he saw King Xiang come in, he immediately greeted him and asked eagerly: "Is there anything wrong with Your Highness?" ”

"It's okay, it's just a clown." At this time, King Xiang was not as soft-spoken as he was talking to Wei Ziyang, but replied coldly.

The king of Xiang replied, but his footsteps did not stop, and he walked to the soft collapse of the main hall, sat down, crossed his knees, and asked Mei Jingting lightly: "You say, will this assassin be sent by the prince?" ”

When Mei Jingting heard this, his face turned dark, and he said after half a sound: "If you know the whereabouts of King Xiang in Ya County, except for Your Majesty, then there are only General He and the crown prince, if you analyze it according to the probability, it is indeed the prince who is the most suspicious." ”

At this time, Mei Jingting's eyes were cold, he was not as submissive as he was in the courtyard just now, he was cautious, and he didn't look like a courtier when talking to King Xiang, but he thought he was a brother, without fear, which was very different from Guo Jiang's performance.

When King Xiang heard this, he said "oh", and he smiled, wanting to hear what Mei Jingting said next.

Mei Jingting paused before saying: "But his subordinates think that the crown prince is not so stupid, he knows that His Royal Highness is in Ya County, but he still dares to openly send assassins to commit murder, doesn't this make it clear that the assassins were sent by him?" ”

When King Xiang heard this, he frowned slightly, and then fell silent.

"You're saying there's someone else behind this?"

"If the subordinates guessed correctly, nine times out of ten, the mastermind behind the scenes may not be the prince, but someone else." Mei Jingting said slowly, word by word.

When King Xiang heard this, he couldn't help but raise his hand and touch his chin, and was silent for a long time before his eyes showed a cold light and muttered in a low voice: "Interesting, interesting." ”

Guo Jiang listened to the whispers of King Xiang, and couldn't help but shudder, he had been with King Xiang for many years, so he naturally knew King Xiang's habits, and whenever King Xiang was angry, he would say to himself, "Interesting".

It seems that King Xiang is really angry, and if King Xiang is angry, it will inevitably be a river of blood.

Of course, King Xiang didn't know Guo Jiang's thoughts, and waited for a while before he asked Mei Jingting, "Can you ask about the origin of Bingqing's assassin?" ”

"Senior sister said that this person was originally from the palace, and this time he was just brought out to cook for His Highness." Mei Jingting obviously asked about the situation clearly, and replied unhurriedly.

Hearing this, King Xiang was silent for a while before shaking his head: "This matter must be investigated clearly, and Zhou Feng is also a hidden danger." “

Mei Jingting also frowned when he heard this.
