Chapter 1036: A chance encounter in the Li Mansion
Through a small wheelchair, Guo Ye finally rebuilt his self-confidence in the dark night.
Seeing that the dark night was no longer as depressed as before, Guo Ye told him to let him temporarily rest assured that he would recuperate in his home, and at the same time let the dark night begin to gather the old department of the former East Factory and start to build the embryo of the East Factory again.
Dark Night now has the help of a wheelchair, and no longer feels that he is a wasted person, he is really full of momentum, and in front of Pang Feihu and others, he repeatedly promised Guo Ye that when Guo Ye led everyone south to quell the rebellion and returned triumphantly, he would be given a brand new East Factory.
In this regard, Guo Ye did not press him too hard, and repeatedly told him to combine work and rest, and everything went naturally.
Then he ordered everyone to continue to play in the garden and take care of the dark night, and then he left the garden alone, and after letting his subordinates prepare the carriage, he went straight to the gate of the county mansion.
While it was still early, he had to go to the Weiguo Mansion to meet Li Jing first. Because His Majesty Li Er sent someone to deliver an edict two days ago, urging him and Li Jing's two-way army to speed up the pace of gathering troops and horses, and limiting them to march south to quell the rebellion within five days.
It took him two days to build this wheelchair for Dark Night, and now there are only three days left before His Majesty Li Er's deadline. Time was of the essence and there was no room for them to delay any longer.
However, going south to quell the rebellion does not mean that each of them will lead a large army to the south, and there are still many preparations that have not been dealt with before leaving.
Therefore, Guo Ye had to meet with Li Jing first to discuss the countermeasures before going south to quell the rebellion. Otherwise, when the time comes, after going south to quell the rebellion, the troops will divide into two routes, each for the purpose of attacking and exterminating cult believers, and it may be enough to choke if they want to meet each other.
When I came to Li Jing's mansion, as soon as the gatekeeper entered, it was the visit of the Pingyang County Prince, with the relationship between Guo Ye and Li Jing now, where do you still need to pass it on?
Without saying a word, he directly led Guo Ye to the outside of Li Jing's study.
The subordinate was about to knock on the door of the study to greet Li Jing, but was stopped by Guo Ye and waved him to retreat.
Because Guo Ye heard a fierce conversation in the study, listening to each other's voices and the content of the conversation, if Guo Ye heard correctly, it should be Li Jingzheng and a young man who were deducing the sand table, and it seemed that there was a slight dispute because of different opinions on an offensive strategy.
After listening carefully, the place name involved in the two deduced sand table seems to be Yongzhou.
Yongzhou?
Guo Ye silently recited the name of the place, and wondered, isn't Yongzhou the state capital in the Lingnan Mansion? If I remember correctly, it seems to be mentioned in Yu Shinan's urgent recital to His Majesty Li Er last time that Yongzhou is one of the several state capitals that were slaughtered by the White Lotus Sect.
Could it be that Li Jingzheng and others are formulating a strategy on how to go south to quell the rebellion?
However, he was even more curious about the identity of this young man, and he could even deduce the sand table with Li Jing, which shows that Li Jing is very important, and he has not heard that Li Jing has any descendants in Chang'an.
"Who's out there?"
A voice that was not angry and self-righteous came from the room, and it was obvious that Guo Ye's slight movement outside still made Li Jing notice.
Guo Ye generously pushed the door in, and greeted with a smile: "Old handsome, Guo Ye is uninvited, don't beat my military stick, haha......"
When Li Jing saw that it was Guo Ye who walked in with a grin, he couldn't help but shake his head and laughed: "It's you?" I also said how could these people in my family let strangers in, it turned out to be you kid. How? You've been grinding around for two days, and you're finally willing to come to see me? ”
Guo Ye said yes with a smile, and approached the sand table in front of Li Jing, and looked at it, the cities on the sand table were all planted with small flags, densely packed and all miniature on the sand table, and the flags were abbreviated with small characters on the names of the places, Lingnan Road...... Lingnan ...... Yongzhou ...... Chenzhou ...... Jizhou ...... Duanzhou ...... Wuzhou ......
The names of dozens of state capitals jumped into Guo Ye's eyes, aren't they simple sand tables in Lingnan and Guangnan?
After reading the sand table, he turned his head to look at the young man standing on the side of the sand table with Li Jing, who was almost the same height as himself, and his appearance was heroic, but his skin was slightly dark, plus a coarse linen clothes, and he was wearing a pair of cloth boots on his feet, and the cloth boots were still stained with mud, looking not like a child of a prince's family, but more like a child of a peasant family.
Guo Ye was surprised in his heart and said, this is fresh, if it is a child of a peasant family, how can he enter the palace and enter the Weiguo Mansion, and he can still deduce the sand table with Li Jing, and there is actually a slight dispute. Is there anything else this young man can't do?
The young man was a little uncomfortable by Guo Ye, but he didn't show weakness, he puffed up his chest and arched his hand at Li Jing and said, "Teacher, you have a guest visiting, and it is inconvenient for the disciple to disturb the side, so the disciple will go to work in the courtyard of the mansion first." ”
Li Jing smiled dumbly, and said: "You have called me a teacher, and you have come all the way to Chang'an, and the old man can still let you do chores in the house?" Rest, just think it's your own home. Take a look at the military books I gave you, especially the "New Book of Discipline and Effectiveness" written by Guo Jungong, you should read more. ”
"The book of war, the disciple will read it."
The young man continued to arch his hand at Li Jing and said stubbornly: "But I also have to do chores, the teacher can accept me as an apprentice, it is already a blessing to invite heaven, how can the disciple eat and drink for nothing in the teacher's mansion?" Before coming to Chang'an, my mother repeatedly told her disciples that people can be poor, but they can't be short-minded. Therefore, the disciple eats and lives at the teacher's house, and also follows the teacher to learn the art of war, and if he does not do some chores as compensation, his heart is not steady. Please also ask the teacher to be perfected. ”
Li Jing shook his head for a while, waved his hand helplessly, and said, "That's it, your mother is right, people can't be short-minded." But you have to remember that I talked to you on the sand table today, before you go to bed at night, take advantage of the dead of night to ponder it, and tomorrow morning as a teacher and have to study you. ”
"The disciple knows."
The young man said, "Teacher, that disciple went out first." ”
"Hmm......"
Li Jing was just about to nod, but suddenly saw Guo Ye beside him, suddenly remembered something, and called: "Wait, Li'er, in three days, I will lead the army south with the Pingyang County Duke to quell the rebellion." The division will arrange for you to enter Guo Jungong's Guangnan Road army as a captain, and take the opportunity to go south to quell the rebellion, you can not only experience it, but also accumulate some military merits for your future promotion, isn't it? I think Guo Jungong can always sell an old man with this little face, right? ”
The last sentence was naturally said to Guo Ye.
Guo Ye was stunned for a moment, and thought, "it, you old man will cut it first and then play it, and you won't tell me if you arrange for your disciple to join my army, in case it is a gentleman who is greedy for enjoyment and greedy for life and afraid of death, wouldn't that add to my blockage?"
However, when he saw that the young man was dressed as a peasant child, and arranging a small military commander would not affect the overall situation, and this young man was still Li Jing's apprentice, it didn't matter.
Although he didn't know when Li Jing accepted his apprentice, he would obviously not be far off if he could enter Li Jing's eyes.
I just have to be a favor.
So, he replied generously: "The old man is out of sight, what kind of captain, it's too condescending, I think it's better to give the apprentice a long experience first." ”
"No, you don't!"
The sonorous three words spit out from the young man's mouth, and then replied stiffly: "There is no merit, and I don't need to rely on the nepotism of my teacher." I will go south to quell the rebellion, but I will only follow my teacher's Lingnan Road army to the south to quell the rebellion, and I will start as a soldier. I want to rely on my own strength, rely on my own charge to make military merits, to advance. The kindness of the teacher was appreciated by the disciple. ”
After that, he didn't even look at Guo Ye, and walked out of the study in a daze.
it!
Guo Ye was almost so angry by this straightforward stunned seed, and there is such a second goods who kick his nose and face and don't appreciate people's feelings?
was slapped hard by this young man, Guo Ye's face really couldn't hold it. It's been a long, long time since no one has given him so much face.
Seeing Guo Ye's poor face, Li Jing also knew that he had done bad things with good intentions, and secretly blamed his apprentice for not being sensible, and hurriedly comforted Guo Ye: "It's really the old man's fault, Guo Ye doesn't want to go to his heart, my apprentice, I just came from my hometown in Jiangzhou to join me, and I don't understand any human feelings." Hey, if I had taken him with me a few years ago, how could I be so unskilled? ”
Now that Li Jing has spoken, Guo Ye is not more serious, and waved his hand a little old-fashioned and said: "The old man is too polite, can I still deal with a hairy boy?" It's okay, it's just a trivial matter, I won't be relieved. ”
Flutter~
Li Jing couldn't help but smile when he heard Guo Ye's words, and said happily: "How old are you kid?" My apprentice is only five or six years younger than you, how can I listen to your words, as if you are seventy or eighty? ”
Guo Ye took the initiative to ignore Li Jing's jokes, and continued to say in an old-fashioned manner: "Old handsome, your apprentice's temper has to be changed, it's too straightforward." At a young age, he has little ability, and his temper is not small. ”
"Hey, you're wrong this time."
Li Jing stroked his beard and said with a gratifying face: "My apprentice is born with a good eye and never forgets, and he is good at using a good bow and arrow, and he can wear Yang in a hundred steps. The old man sighed to himself. But you are right about one thing, Xue Li's child is too straight, it's okay now, if he is promoted in the future, I'm afraid he will suffer a big loss. Guo boy, if the old man is not there in the future, you have to take care of Xue Li for me, the old man has accepted such a mantle disciple in his life, but he is closer than his own son, I will tell Xue Li and his mother when I turn around, this child will not return to his hometown in Longmen, Jiangzhou, the old man is still in good health, he must stay by his side and let him be exposed to it, so as to change his temperament. ”
"Don't worry, you've spoken, old man, can I still admit it?"
Guo Ye patted his chest and promised: "In the future, I will definitely cover your apprentice, what is it called?" It's called Xue Li, right? …… What? Xue... Xue... Courtesy? ”
At the end, Guo Ye suddenly remembered something, and shouted in surprise: "Old Shuai, you said that your apprentice's surname is Xue Mingli, but he is from Longmen in Jiangzhou?" ”
Li Jing looked at Guo Ye in confusion, nodded noncommittally, and said, "That's right, what's wrong?" ”
Guo Ye chuckled in his heart, and asked again: "Xue Li, a native of Longmen in Jiangzhou, the word Rengui?" Xue... Benevolence... Expensive? ”
"Huh? How do you kid know? ”
Li Jing's reaction has confirmed Guo Ye's guess in his heart, Nima's, this kid is really not small, it will be the legendary Xue Rengui of the Three Arrows Dingtian Mountain.
Don't look at Xue Rengui now, Li Jing can't see what the future of his apprentice will be, but Guo Ye is really there, and he remembers it clearly.
Xue Rengui, this is another Tang military god in the era of Li Zhi of Tang Gaozong after Li Jing, three arrows to set the Tianshan Mountain, the brave harvest of Liaodong, the benevolent government of Goryeo, the love of the people Xiangzhou City, and the retreat of thousands of enemies...... This is all a feat of Xue Rengui.
One Su Dingfang and one Xue Rengui, these are the two dazzling and radiant generals of the Tang Gaozong Li Zhi era.
In Li Jing's mansion, he actually met Xue Rengui, who had not yet risen in the stunned youth era, and now, Guo Ye's mind was alive again......
