Chapter 920: Zuo Xiang's Intentions
Early the next morning, Zhang Xuanqing, who was dressed in new clothes, went to the first village, handed Xiaocao a bag of maltose, and asked Xiaocao to paint a portrait of him.
"Xiaocao can draw as much as he wants, you don't have to be polite."
Looking at the smiling senior brother, Xiao Nuan sighed that the first seal effect is so important, the senior brother looked at her pleasing to the eye when he saw Xiaocao for the first time, and it has never changed after so many years.
"Senior brother, what did Master Li say about moving you?"
Zhang Xuanqing said with a smile, "Li Xiang said that the prayer for the old lady of the Li family on her birthday this year will be done by the senior brother." ”
Mrs. Li's identity is extraordinary, and doing blessing rituals at her birthday banquet can not only show her face, but also suppress the Buddha's door, so it's no wonder that the senior brother doesn't agree!
The left hand is quite beautiful.
As soon as Zhang Xuanqing left, Master Zhizhen also came, and he said the same thing. Xiao Nuan also asked the same question, and the master Amitabha Buddha said it very smoothly.
"Master Li said to let the old man come, and the old man came. The little grass girl has a unique eye, and the portrait she paints can see people's hearts, and the old man has long wanted to ask the girl to paint for the old man, but she has no chance to speak. ”
Yes, if you say it, you don't say it. Xiao Nuan was thinking that Zuo Xiang must have used something or someone to blackmail Zhizhen.
Yuantong who came with him was watching the excitement on the side, and Du Tong and Xiao Nuan looked at each other, "County Lord, can you please move, Du Tong has something to tell you." ”
Hey, it's time to talk about business, so Dutong changed his tune and didn't call himself "Jiuqing Daoist", which is really shrewd. Xiao Nuan smiled and nodded, "Dutong nephew, please come with the poor road." ”
You don't call, I warn you. Xiao Nuan smiled politely.
Dutong's squirrel teeth were half collected, and as Xiao Nuan went, he silently divided the score in his heart and dialed a number to Xiao Nuan's side
The third one came was Mr. Yunqing.
"Xiaocao painted the old man extraordinary, and he braked Li Xiran!" Mr. Yunqing attached a request.
Xiaocao immediately showed his neatly grown front teeth, "Mr. is already extraordinary, Xiaocao can paint according to reality." ”
This little apprentice is too good! After Mr. Yunqing saw the painting, he went away satisfied.
In the evening of this day, the first thing Zuo Xiang, who had gone to the county government to interrogate the prisoner for a day, came back was to go to the first village to see Xiaocao's paintings.
When he saw the portraits of Ding Zhonghe and the three of them, Zuo Xiang was depressed again, "Why are the three of them so drawn...... Unusual? ”
Although the old monk's bald head has added brightness, Ding Zhonghe's eyes are shining, and Zhang Xuanqing's ups and downs have been blown into brooms by the wind, but their facial features are all there, why is he the only one who has no ears and nose?
"Because that's what they are." Xiaocao replied as a matter of course.
All right...... Zuo Xiang touched his favorite nose on his whole face, and said with a smile, "When Xiaocao goes to the capital, he can draw a portrait of Zhuang Guogong, he is very interesting." ”
"However, Xiaocao doesn't recognize Guogong." Xiaocao regretted that she likes to draw people, which is very interesting.
It's better to be happy alone than to be happy with everyone, Zuo Xiang said with a smile, "March 28 is my mother's birthday, and my uncle will lead you to meet them." ”
Will they be able to go? Xiaocao turned to look at her sister.
Xiao Nuan said politely, "Thank you for the invitation, but Xiaocao is naughty, afraid of bumping into the distinguished guest." And March 28 is my father's birthday, if so...... I'm afraid my sister won't be able to visit us on that day. ”
Chen Zumo, what a person he doesn't like! However, even if they didn't go over to accompany Chen Zumo's birthday, it was inconvenient to go out as guests, so Zuo Xiang immediately dispelled this idea and asked Xiao Nuan to go to the study to talk.
"Before leaving Beijing, the saint promised the prime minister the power to first cut and then mobilize the Jixian Xiang army to exterminate the remaining party, these Japanese ministers have already tried the case, if they send troops to encircle and suppress now, although they may not be able to catch the big head, but they are sure to copy his den in Jixian County, and the people will be peaceful. Is the county lord interested?"
In which round did the bandits get her to play? Xiao Nuan refused, while considering the purpose of Zuo Xiang's invitation to her, "The fact that an adult can send someone to suppress the bandits really makes Xiao Nuan grateful." However, Xiao Nuan is really ashamed, Xiao Nuan can't see the bloody scene, otherwise she will have a fever in a dream, and her tired mother will be worried. ”
She was a fifteen-year-old girl, and she was really not suitable to see such a scene. Zuo Xiang nodded, "It's because the prime minister is not thoughtful, can you ask the county lord to lend his guards to the prime minister to encircle and suppress the thief's lair?"
When Fang Cai Zuo invited her to go with her, Xiao Nuan thought that it was for this, and also thought of how to refuse, "It is said that you have spoken, and Xiao Nuan should be able to help." But there are two inappropriate points in using the guards of Nanshan Pass: first, the guards led by Xuan Yi belong to Qianniuwei, not the Jixian Xiang Army, they obey the orders of King Sheng, and Xiao Nuan has no right to dispatch; Second, if they go with you, Nanshan Pass will become an empty city, and the remnants of the Qing Dynasty will take this opportunity to attack, and Xiao Nuan will definitely suffer heavy losses here. Do you say?"
Qianniuwei belongs to the forbidden army, that is, the regular army with combat effectiveness in the Great Zhou, and it is the exclusive personal guard of the imperial family, although because of some origins, Emperor Jianlong cut the combat effectiveness of Qianniuwei, but their identity cannot be denied. They are not local troops responsible for logistics, repairing the city, and catching thieves, and they are not within the scope of the people allowed by Emperor Jianlong to be dispatched by the left minister.
Therefore, the left minister cannot call the right Jinwuwei, who is also a forbidden army, to suppress the bandits, let alone call the guards of the third master.
If Xiao Nuan asked Xuan Qi to take people to cooperate with Zuo Xiang to suppress the bandits, or if Chai Yanting was such a cunning and insidious bandit, who was to blame if something happened?
The move of the left minister is really inappropriate. Xiao Nuan felt that he must have something to say.
Is this what King Sheng taught her, or does she want to say it herself? If it is the latter, then she is really quite similar to King Sheng: no matter how familiar you are with him, when it comes to business, he is still the cold-faced prince who talks about things.
This is really reassuring and helpless, Zuo Xiang said with a smile, "In a hurry, I will use the power of the army to suppress the bandits, and I am worried that the damage will be too heavy." ”
Cut! The Xiang army will be too badly damaged, so let Xuan's people go on top? Xiao Nuan has heard that Zuo Xiang's guards are also quite powerful, why doesn't he let his guards top?
However, Xiao Nuan didn't say this, but listened to his chest, and said in the right way, "Although Xiao Nuan is a woman, if the adult has something to use, Xiao Nuan will definitely rise to the challenge, sword wind and arrows, and never flinch!"
……
Xiao Nuan is still different from King Sheng, she is thicker than King Sheng, and King Sheng will never say this.
If he let Xiao Nuan rush in front, Xuan Qi and Xuan Wu and others would fight to protect it, but it was not appropriate. Don't talk about others, even King Sheng will definitely turn against him. Zuo Xiang smiled, waiting for her to speak.
Xiao Nuan really continued, "But Xiao Nuan's ability is far inferior to the hot-blooded sons and daughters of our Xiang Army, and if you go, you will also cause chaos for adults." However, Xiao Nuan Bao raised one person, and he would definitely be able to help the adults. ”
"Who?" Zuo Xiang asked knowingly.
"My seventh senior brother, Zhang Xuanqing." Although he knew that she was facing an old fox, and although he knew that he mentioned that Senior Brother Seven was also in his calculations, Xiao Nuan couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw the expression he had just drawn with Xiao Cao.
Her sister is definitely a genius!
Zuo Xiang is also a human spirit, seeing Xiao Nuan's expression is what she thought, she immediately sucked her stomach, made her face straight, and said, "If Zhang Guan can go, I can't ask for it." ”
Zhang Xuanqing is a disciple of Shi Wuyi, not only excellent in martial arts, but also proficient in thaumaturgy, and taking him with him is already in Zuo Xiang's plan. However, I couldn't dig a few masters from Xiao Nuan to go together, and Zuo Xiang still has some regrets.
Xiao Nuan politely persuaded again, "Your Excellency is an important minister in the court, and the matter of arresting bandits is extremely dangerous, so you don't have to be in danger." ”
Zuo Xiang smiled arrogantly, "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger." Since the true image has come, it will not return empty-handed. I know that it may be a trap, and I have to break through it! Look at how many iron thorns and bundles of arrows he put there, and with his own eyes alone, where will he dig out some more clues!"
