Chapter Sixty-Seven: Enveloping Xue Ne
Hearing that voice, Li Xian looked fixedly, but found that Na Xue Ne was a fair-skinned young man, seven feet tall, who seemed to be very thin, but his eyes were bright.
"What a handsome boy!" Seeing this person, Li Xiandu couldn't help but give a thumbs up in his heart and praised him.
But Cheng Yanjin didn't stop the movements in his hands, and when he finished practicing his marksmanship, he jumped off the horse, panted and said: "Hehe, old, old, it's just that after practicing this set of marksmanship, I started to breathe." It seems that this is Lao Cheng's last battle on the battlefield. ”
After laughing at himself, Cheng Yanjin asked the visitor again: "General Xue, how did you get here if you didn't follow General Pang to train soldiers?" ”
But I heard that Xue Ne said: "General Pang thought that the little nephew was young, not only could not help, but also caused trouble for him, so he sent the little nephew to the big manager's account, the little nephew was going to report in the big manager's account, but he heard the guards say that the big manager is here, so the little nephew chased here, hehe, fortunately, the little nephew came here, and he saw Uncle Cheng's wonderful spearmanship, which really opened the eyes of the little nephew, this, this, the little nephew wants to ask, can Uncle Cheng teach this set of spear skills to the little nephew?" ”
Xue Ne's personality is like his name, Mu Ne is silent, silent, silent, this time he was able to shout Uncle Cheng to Cheng Yanjin, and he also said so many words to him, it is definitely the most spoken in this life, and the reason why Xue Ne can muster up the courage to say so many words is that he has an incomparable desire for Cheng Yanjin's marksmanship, and this strong desire pushes him to give up his shyness, abandon his face, first praise, and then take the initiative to learn marksmanship.
But Cheng Yanjin didn't want to do this, because although he had some friendship with Xue Rengui, the father of Xue Ne, and even among the clansmen of the Xue clan in Hedong, there were many people who were relatively close, but none of them were close friends, although now he was just a civilian, and Xue Rengui was the general of Zuo Wuwei from the third grade, but he was not valued by him, not to mention that he was twenty-five years older than Xue Rengui in terms of age, almost a generation older, plus he was a veteran of the Three Dynasties and a founding hero, so it was not a big deal not to buy Xue Rengui's affection.
Therefore, Cheng Yanjin said lightly: "The old man is old, and there are too many people to teach, General Xue, please forgive me." ”
"Huh? This ......" Xue Ne didn't expect that after some careful consideration and struggle, he finally mustered up the courage to say his request, but he was immediately rejected by the other party, and suddenly became helpless and speechless, and his fair face became red because of shame.
Looking at the look of loss in front of him, Li Xian's heart suddenly moved, and he secretly thought that he could take this opportunity to envelop this Xue Ne, after all, this person can be regarded as a famous general in history, if he can recruit this talent under his command, it will definitely become a big help in the future.
At this moment, I heard Cheng Yanjin say coldly: "If General Xue has nothing to do, please take care of yourself, I still have important matters to discuss with King Zhou." ”
Xue Ne could only sigh softly when he heard this, turned around wordlessly, and then prepared to leave gloomily.
At this moment, Li Xian suddenly heard Li Xian say loudly: "Wait." ”
Xue Ne suddenly felt stunned, then slowly looked at Li Xian, and said coldly: "I don't know what else the chief manager commands?" If nothing happens, the last general will retire. ”
It turned out that Xue Ne saw that Li Xian was younger than himself, and he had never seen martial arts, so he would definitely not be too high, but he could easily be taught this set of clever marksmanship, relying on his identity as a prince, if he was a prince, it was expected that Cheng Biting Jin would not dare to refuse to teach him this set of marksmanship, just take it today, if it weren't for Li Xian's identity as a prince, I believe that as long as he compares with that Li Xian, Cheng Biting Jin will definitely choose to be his disciple, and it is based on this thought, Xue Ne thought that today's incident must be that the hateful Li Xian blocked his opportunity, and in this case, Xue Ne was understandable for being cold to Li Xian.
Since Li Xian decided to envelop Xue Ne, how could he let go of this opportunity? At the same time, how can you be angry with each other? Therefore, he just smiled faintly, stepped forward to take Xue Ne's hand, and then said, "Brother Xue doesn't need to be angry, Xiao Wang just wants to ask, is Brother Xue really willing to learn spearmanship from General Cheng?" ”
"So what?" Although Xue Ne knew that it would be humiliating for him to continue, but when he saw Li Xian ask like this, he couldn't help but have a trace of thought in his heart, and said casually.
But seeing Li Xian laughing: "As long as Brother Xue is really willing, things will be much easier, as long as Brother Xue has no objections, Xiao Wang can intercede with General Cheng and allow Brother Xue to learn spearmanship from him." ”
"Is that true?" Xue Ne listened to what Li Xian said, quietly glanced at Cheng Biting Jin on the side, and then said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid that General Cheng may not be willing to buy the face of the king." ”
Li Xian glanced at Cheng Yanjin, and saw that Cheng Yanjin did not have any objection, so he said: "Old General Cheng, this matter is also here, Xiao Wang wants to ask for a favor for Brother Xue, and I hope that the old general will look at Xiao Wang's thin face and give Brother Xue a chance." ”
But Cheng Yanjin sneered and said, "The king is a little too much, right?" Lao Cheng Ken taught the king the spearmanship, but he just owed others affection, so he was forced to agree, and now the king is forcibly suppressing Lao Cheng with his identity, which is really unbearable, but the king also looks down on Lao Cheng, the three armies can win the commander, and the husband can not win the ambition. Hugh said that he is the king, even if he is a saint today, it is difficult to make Lao Cheng do what he does not want to do, hehe, no matter what, Lao Cheng can be regarded as the founder of the first emperor, and he is one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, if Lao Cheng resolutely refuses, what can the king do? ”
Li Xian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, he thought that Lao Cheng would definitely agree reluctantly, but he didn't expect to refuse it out of hand, and he also set up his qualifications in front of him, this approach is definitely not in line with Lao Cheng's consistent style.
But after thinking about it, Li Xian understood what Lao Cheng meant, this was obviously a difficulty, so that Xue Neling could understand his feelings, and a strong feeling suddenly rose in his heart, this old man wanted to help himself, which was really amiable and respectable.
"This old fox is still playing tricks at this time, but this old fox is so gracious, how can I refuse? Xue Ne, Xue Ne, I have to wronged you today. ”
Li Xian thought of this, and immediately made a decision, and then said unhappily: "What does General Cheng mean by this? Could it be that he didn't give face to this king? Don't forget, you are just a veteran now, ordered to serve under my account, and King Erben is the general manager of the Liaodong Road march, responsible for all military affairs of the entire campaign, and you dare not listen to the command of this king! ”
"Hehe, what if you don't listen? Lao Cheng I have always said that one is one, and two is two, since I promised to teach the king martial arts, it is also a transaction with others, and I have to do it, but the king can rest assured that although I am reluctant, I will go all out to fulfill my promise. However, since you refuse to teach Xiao Xue the skill of the gun, you will not change it, unless you are also willing to promise me a condition as a deal. ”
"I don't know what the conditions? Although you opened your mouth, as long as Xiao Wang can do it, he will definitely be able to be satisfied with Yuer. Li Xian smiled, regardless of Xue Ne, who saw an old man and a small discord on the side, and hurriedly persuaded but couldn't speak, he smiled indifferently.
"Okay, this is what the king said, Lao Cheng said, the king wants Lao Cheng to teach this Xiao Xue spear skills, unless the king is willing to pay a thousand yuan as a fee, hehe, Lao Cheng has no official status now, and the title of Duke Lu was also silently attacked by the eldest son, and now there is no money around, if you can earn a little coffin book, you can consider it."
"What do you mean? A thousand? According to the king, it is better to rob! When Li Xian heard this, he almost jumped up, pointed at Lao Cheng's nose, and exclaimed exaggeratedly.
"Hehe, Lao Cheng didn't force the king to pay, the king can not pay at all." Cheng Biting Jin stroked the beard on his chest, and said with a smile.
"Great, king, I still don't study, I can't afford this thousand yuan in the end, and even my father will find it difficult to raise this lot of money. Forget about this matter, the king's affection, and the general will be grateful. Xue Ne saw Cheng bite the golden lion and opened his mouth, his heart suddenly sank, and when he saw that Li Xian was still at ease with him, he hurriedly persuaded him.
But seeing Li Xian waved his hand and said: "Brother Xue, don't persuade anymore, it's just a thousand guan, Xiao Wang can still afford it, hum, old general Cheng, this time it is considered that Xiao Wang owes you, and when the war is over, how about Xiao Wang repay 1,200 guan?" If General Cheng can't believe it, Xiao Wang can make a note on the spot. ”
However, Cheng Yanjin on the side didn't intend to agree like this, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, Lao Cheng doesn't take any credit, this war is so tense, if Lao Cheng dies here, won't he have the opportunity to ask the king for his own expenses?" ”
"What does General Cheng want?" Li Xian almost gritted his teeth and said word by word.
"Actually, it's not difficult, although the king doesn't have any cash, but he has something, Lao Cheng, I see that the three royal horses that the king is riding are all very strong, how about not giving Lao Cheng one?" Cheng Biting Jin pointed to the Qingshuang Imperial Horse he had ridden just now, and said with a wicked smile.
Before Li Xian could speak, the guard disguised as Dou Xiantong said loudly: "How can this be done? The royal horse that the king rode was the best in the garden, each horse was worth at least three thousand yuan, and it was priceless, and General Cheng took the opportunity to blackmail, which was really hateful. ”
Although Cheng Yanjin didn't know that this young guard was dressed as a woman, he knew that he must be the person favored by Li Xian, and seeing that this person could help at the most critical time, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this son was clever, and couldn't help but look at the other party a few more times, and then hehe sneered: "Love is not given, anyway, Lao Cheng is not rare, but the opportunity is hard to find, if Lao Cheng is shrouded in horse leather this time and dies on the battlefield, I am afraid that no one in the world can understand this set of marksmanship." ”
"Hmph, it's really not good, it's not too late to pass it on to Brother Xue when this king learns it." Li Xian also seemed to be very dissatisfied with Cheng Yanjin's blackmail, and said loudly.
But I heard Cheng bite Jin Hehe sneered: "It's not that Lao Cheng is boasting, if this set of marksmanship is not for twenty or thirty years, there is no hope for Dacheng, and after Dawang Dacheng, Xiao Xue will be over half a hundred years old, and learning marksmanship at this time is tantamount to painting a snake to add to it, which is not only useless, but harmful." ”
"Hugh is going to say it again, this king promises, and this green frost will return to the old general." Li Xian's eyes were full of anger, and he gritted his teeth and said word by word.
