Chapter 9: Troubled Youth

The following is the anti-theft chapter, and the genuine content is updated within an hour

When the world is in turmoil, natural disasters are everywhere, coupled with demons, the people are not living, almost every day, there are countless displaced people, in the past three years, in order to be able to accommodate more displaced people, Jiangning City has been expanded twice, and now Jiangning City is not as large as Jingshi, but it is not far behind.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the White Tiger Gate, when my Jiangning City expanded the city, it was named after the four gates of the four divine beasts, which was also considered to deter demons, such as the people in various places today are not happy, only the people of the three states under the rule of my governor have enough food and clothing, these four city gates, the people spontaneously organized the construction years ago, one is to repay the kindness of my family, and the other is also to be auspicious." The general who was sent by Zhao Yun to escort Fu Tianqiu and his party back spoke with a slight look of pride.

"Well, I have long heard that this governor of Liangjiang loves the people like a son, and is deeply loved by the people, and today I see it, it is really extraordinary, although I have not seen the other three, but this layout is implied in the mystery of the Xuanmen, and the spirit is extraordinary." Zhiqiu Yiye sighed: "It's just ordinary people, how can they build such a thing?" ”

This is not the same as building a house, not only must you be proficient in the science of architecture, but also be familiar with the Taoist formation, which is not something that ordinary people can design.

"Indeed, these four doors were personally designed by Mr. Zhuge Wolong, a world-famous Tongtian Bo Bachelor." The general smiled.

"Zhuge Wolong?" When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at Ning Caichen with strange eyes.

"I never said that I was Mr. Zhuge Wolong, and that token was also given to me by the old man." Ning Caichen was quite uncomfortable being looked at by a group of people. Dissatisfied glared at Zhiqiu Yiye Dao.

"Don't explain, you liar." I thought that I had even admired this scholar in my heart. Zhiqiu Yiye felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and glared at him hatefully.

"This little general is a great talker. Valuable. Fu Tianqiu didn't pay attention to the others, but looked at the partial general in front of him and said, "Governor Zhuo's subordinates are really full of talents." ”

"Ha, Master Fu said with a smile, what kind of talent am I?" Shaking his head, the general said: "The selection criteria for soldiers and servants in our states are not only martial arts, but also the literary examination, and the generals at each level have strict standards for the results of the literary examination. ”

"Oh?" Fu Tianqiu was surprised: "Don't you have to be a soldier and take the poetry and song test?" In my mind, I automatically made up a group of five big and three thick men, each holding a book, shaking their heads. There is always a sense of incongruity in the picture.

"How is that possible?" The general smiled: "The major military camps have special martial arts halls, recruits enter the camp, in addition to basic physical training, all recruits must recognize enough words to be considered a qualified soldier, and if you want to be promoted to become a captain, you must be able to read military books, and after that, there will be special generals to assess the cognition of the art of war, and after the excellent results and complete the tasks assigned above to obtain credit." In order to be promoted, martial arts, the art of war and meritorious service are indispensable. ”

"It's unusual." Fu Tianqiu twisted his beard and smiled.

"Not unusually, the governor of my family has said that a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier. And if you want to become a general, you must first understand the art of war, not blindly rampage. The general said as a matter of course.

"It's vulgar to say. But it is motivating, and it is indeed suitable for the military camp. However, even if he is the governor of Liangjiang, his subordinates will be counted as the commander. After all, the number is limited, and the soldiers are constantly improving, and in the long run, the generals will inevitably be insufficient. Fu Tianqiu secretly thought about Zhuo Ao's true intention in his heart, this is already setting aside the imperial military system and setting up his own military system, to put it mildly, this is a crime of rebellion.

"What's so difficult about this, military exercises will be held every month in the barracks of each army, respectively, in the unit, in the army, Shi, Tun, team, battalion for military exercises, for example, the last battalion will be automatically demoted to the team rate, and the final winning team rate in the team-level military exercise will be promoted to the battalion commander, so as to promote, survival of the fittest, only the best generals can be promoted to high positions." The general laughed.

"Little general, this should be regarded as a secret in the army, you are not afraid of military punishment if you disclose this information to us outsiders?" Fu Tianqiu asked.

"Military secrets?" Prejudice laughed: "The monthly military exercises are held outside the city, and in the territory of Liangjiang, it's strange if you don't know." ”

Fu Tianqiu's face turned red when he heard this, thinking about it, it was simply wishful thinking to hide people's eyes and ears after such a vigorous comparison every month, but after the embarrassment, Fu Tianqiu's heart sank, the Liangjiang army seemed to have its own system, and only mentioned Zhuo Ao without the slightest gratitude to the court, and it became Zhuo Ao's private army at all.

What does Zhuo Ao want to do, at least in Fu Tianqiu's eyes, this is clearly a situation of splitting the territory and sealing the territory.

"Dad, what's wrong?" Seeing that Fu Tianqiu's face suddenly became ugly, Fu Qingfeng couldn't help but ask softly.

"Nothing." Fu Tianqiu sighed: "I just suddenly thought of something. But he sighed in his heart: "I'm afraid that I will only come out of the tiger's mouth and enter the wolf's den again."

The partial general led a group of people through the two city gates, only to arrive at the most central governor's mansion, and there is no imagined splendor, but solemn and majestic, if in the eyes of others, since it is proud of the simple spectrum, at most it only occupies a large area, but Fu Tianqiu does not say that the pedantic heavens, what he has learned in his chest, when the world can reach it is also rare, although it is just a hurried sweep, but it can also see the mystery, almost can be regarded as a city within a city, this Jiangning governor's mansion, in terms of spirit, even more than the palace.

Perhaps because of the prejudice in his heart, Fu Tianqiu was always very uncomfortable with the majestic building in front of him, but full of simple scores, walking in it, he would feel an unspeakable depression, even Zhiqiu Yiye and Ning Caichen, who had quarreled before, were silent at the moment, and silently entered the wing room of the governor's mansion under the guidance of the general.

"This general, can you introduce Master Zhuo to the old man?" Seeing that he was about to leave, Fu Tianqiu finally asked out loud.

"I'm sorry, Master Fu, I'm afraid my family doesn't know that you're coming, so I'll go and report this." The general shook his head helplessly, the governor's mansion has the rules of the governor's mansion, even if the holy decree comes, without the warrant of the governor's mansion, the messenger of the Son of Heaven can only wait until Zhuo Ao summons him.

"It's okay, the general will go and get busy." Zhiqiu Yiye laughed, and after everyone left, he was amazed and said: "This governor's mansion is not simple, there is a tiger standing on the dragon plate, I don't know if it is from the handwriting of that Zhuge Wolong." ”

Zhuge Wolong?

Hearing Ye Zhiqiu's words, Fu Qingfeng sighed helplessly, thinking that Zhuge Wolong was famous all over the world, but over the years, he had never been used by the court, and he was depressed, and even later heard that he had been imprisoned, thinking that such characters also served Zhuo Ao, he felt a little bitter in his heart, but more helplessly, even himself, now he is only a prisoner, and he has been persecuted, and with Zhuge Wolong's arrogance, it is inevitable that he will be disappointed in the court.

However, the demon who brought disaster to the country and the people has been killed, and His Majesty will definitely be able to regroup and regain the integrity of the dynasty.

The Governor's Mansion, the Council Hall, Zhuge Wolong came to Zhuo Ao's side, looked at Zhuo Ao suspiciously, and said, "I don't know why the lord is so anxious to call the old man to come?" ”

"See for yourself." Zhuo Ao handed a piece of silk to Zhuge Wolong, and said indifferently: "This is the latest news from the secret agent I have placed in the palace. ”

"Oh?" Zhuge Wolong naturally knew that Zhuo Ao had infiltrated the capital through the incense in the past three years, and it was not strange to hear it at this moment, so he took the silk thin sheet handed over by Zhuo Ao and unfolded it, and looked at it at a glance, and his face gradually showed a look of surprise.

"The Emperor is dead?" Zhuge Wolong looked at Zhuo Ao, and said with a solemn expression: "Ning Xiang is not mourning, this woman is not ambitious." ”

"She was originally selected because this woman is extremely ambitious, and she does things by unscrupulous means, in the past three years, first Fenglai Pavilion caught fire for no reason, and was burned to ashes by a fire, and then a series of extermination incidents in the capital, the people who had a relationship with this woman at the beginning are basically gone, and her next target, I'm afraid it's me." A sneer appeared on the corner of Zhuo Ao's mouth.

"Oh?" Zhuge Wolong looked at Zhuo Ao: "I don't know what the lord has planned?" ”

"The secret is not mourning, since it is to gather power as soon as possible and exclude dissidents, so that her son, who is not yet a year old, will ascend to the throne, so as to continue to be in power as the queen mother, this woman has good means, and she is also very shrewd, and now the 30,000 forbidden troops in Beijing and the 130,000 elites of the Gongwei Jingshi have now been in the hands of this woman, and the situation in the Beijing division is irreversible." Zhuo Ao sneered.

"That's a good idea." Zhuo Ao looked at Zhuge Wolong and said: "But this woman has a vicious nature, she has excluded dissidents and harmed Zhongliang over the years, which has also made her notorious. ”

Zhuge Wolong rolled his eyes when he heard this, he knew very well that at least half of the sins created by Ning Xiang's hands were made under the secret instruction or inducement of Zhuo Ao, but in the end, the benefits went to Zhuo Ao, but this woman became a scapegoat and was secretly pushed step by step by Zhuo Ao to the point pointed out by Qianfu.

"I wonder what the lord is going to do?" Zhuge Wolong is a little incomprehensible to Zhuo Ao's mind, his own lord's methods are very clever, even if he wants to set off the prelude to the troubled times, in Zhuge Wolong's opinion, he will not use the stupid method of pushing himself on the cusp of the storm to open the prelude to the troubled times.

"Fu Tianqiu is here." Zhuo Ao smiled and replied to the question: "Fu Tianqiu's crime is nothing, and the person behind the scenes has been ambushed, I am ready to tell him about this matter, and then let him go back to Beijing." ”

"Clever plan." Zhuge Wolong nodded, although he and Fu Tianqiu had never met, he also knew that this was an upright person with a temperament like fire, and he had a high reputation in Shilin, and his connections were all over the world, so it was best for him to provoke this matter.

"You go and plan a public opinion, and spread the crimes and identities of the demon concubines we have collected over the years all over the world." Zhuo Ao smiled.

"Yes." (To be continued.) )
