Chapter 369: Be Honest and Honest
Lying on the silk lining of the brocade box, it is a tiger-shaped ink jade that can be divided into two, divided into two sections, one side is engraved with the word "god", and the other side is engraved with the word "machine".
Divine machine, tiger talisman.
This is the conclusive evidence that the Shenji Army was officially formed and Shi Feiqing served as the commander. No matter who you are, as long as you hold this tiger talisman, you can mobilize the soldiers and horses of the Divine Machine. Pinching this tiger talisman in your hand is tantamount to grasping the entity of power.
Calm as the time is not clear, I can't help but be a little excited, looking at the tiger talisman for a long time, and said: "The king commander specially came from Le'an Mansion to hand over this tiger talisman to Benhou?" ”
Wang Xi nodded and said, "The tiger talisman is very important, so it should naturally be delivered to the coach as soon as possible." In particular, Xiaguan, as the overseer of the Divine Machine Army, should pay more attention to this responsibility. So as soon as he got the emperor's approval and took the tiger talisman from the emperor, the lower officials immediately looked for the traces of the Hou Ye and his wife, and rushed all the way, fortunately, they caught up. ”
Shi Feiqing took the tiger talisman, and at the same moment, Wang Xi immediately knelt down on one knee, hugged his hands and said: "Xiaguan Wang Xi, I have seen the commander of the Shenji Army, the deputy marshal of the Shenji Army!" ”
Gu Panxi was overjoyed and said, "The matter of letting Mrs. Ben serve as the deputy marshal was decided so quickly?" Gao Shangshu is really a good skill! ”
Wang Xi shook his head and said: "This incident has really caused a lot of waves, and now the DPRK and China are still pulling, and the officials who oppose this matter are still expressing their protests and dissatisfaction in unison. It's just that Gao Shangshu was arguing with words, and moved the emperor with the powerful words of 'extraordinary people do extraordinary things', and asked the emperor to use talents in an eclectic manner. The emperor was able to override the public opinion and finalize the matter. It's just that the decision is finalized, but the opposition officials still don't give up, and they are ready to go to the emperor again anytime and anywhere, asking the emperor to remove your wife, your deputy marshal. ”
Gu Panxi slapped the table violently and said angrily: "Hmph! Why did these petty people protest, why did they feel that they were qualified to join Mrs. Ben's book, and they wanted to remove Mrs. Ben from the position of deputy marshal? Who of them has been on the battlefield, and who has contributed to the Great Martial Army? Is it just because they were born men and Mrs. Ben was born a woman that they should be inferior? Ridiculous! ”
Shi Feiqing held Gu Panxi's hand and looked at her affectionately, although he didn't say a word, he was ten thousand words deep.
Gu Panxi knew that Shi Feiqing's grip not only meant to soothe, but also showed support, and smiled sweetly, relieved in his heart.
Wang Xi is a bold person, for the sake of his own fame and wealth, he still dares to take huge risks, kill Shi Youxing, and his ideological horizons are naturally much broader, unlike the mediocre officials in the court and the central government, who have nothing to do all day long. He deeply thought of Gu Panxi's words, and deeply admired Gu Panxi's vision and courage.
"Madame's words are really good words. When Xia Guan heard this, it was really like an initiation and he was deeply inspired. ”
was so complimented by Wang Xi, but Gu Panxi couldn't be happy immediately, after all, whether Wang Xi was an enemy or a friend was not yet clear.
Shi Feiqing saw that Wang Xi was still kneeling on the ground, so he quickly pulled him up and said, "Commander Wang, no, you should change your words and say that Wang Overseer is the army." Wang Dujun is responsible for supervising and supervising, and when talking about the affairs of the Shenji Army, he should be on an equal footing with the commander and the deputy marshal, and should not fall to the ground. This is not in accordance with etiquette. ”
Wang Xi smiled and sat back on his stool.
The three of them raised their glasses and drank a glass together. This glass of wine is not only a congratulation of the three of them for the success of the Shenji Army, but also a meeting gift for the three of them to become colleagues, and it is even more right
Infinite blessings for the great future of the Divine Machine Army.
When the glass is raised, it is a colleague, and when he puts down the wine glass, Gu Panxi is equivalent to temporarily letting go of the friendship with each other. She has too many questions in her heart and needs to be verified with Wang Xi. The final answers to these questions will determine how Gu Panxi will get along with Wang Xi in the future.
Whether you are open and honest or wary of each other depends on this seat.
Gu Panxi was still so active, and asked directly: "How did Wang Dujun know that he could find us in Wang'an Town?" ”
This question is critical, and it also has a bit of cross-examination.
Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi set off on a starry night, took a ride with the vegetable farmers who delivered fruits and vegetables, and came to Wang'an Town, where there was a journey of more than an hour, and once they got out of Wang'an Town, all roads led to the world, Wang Xi did not know that their destination was Huashan, and there was nowhere to find it. In other words, if Wang Xi wants to chase, he can only chase to Wang'an Town at most.
The problem is that the reason why Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi have been delayed in Wang'an Town for so long is because the carriages and horses in Wang'an Town have been rented and bought out today, which has stopped their pace. If it was a normal situation, Wang Xi went to the court and the next court, and took the tiger talisman to visit the Lu Dwarf Workshop, only then did he know that Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi had left and were ready to chase, Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi had already ridden fast horses and left Wang'an Town.
In other words, it is really unbelievable that Wang Xi can chase Wang'an Town. Either Wang Xi was like a god and knew that the horses and carriages in Wang'an Town would be rented and sold out today, so he came leisurely. Either there was an inner ghost in Lu Xiaozi's workshop, and he secretly informed Wang Xi of the departure of Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi early, so that he could make arrangements in advance.
A pigeon carrying a message is much faster than a ticking ox cart.
Wang Xiding was suspicious of Gu Panxi, and he didn't think it was angry at all, and replied indifferently: "Master Hou and Mrs. should not know that Xia Guan was the head catcher in this Wang'an Town at the beginning. Wu Zhengjing, who had just offended the two of them, was brought into the industry by the lower officials in the past. ”
No wonder Wang Xi and Wu Zhengjing seem to have a close relationship, it turns out to be the relationship between superiors and subordinates in the past.
"So what?"
Gu Panxi asked.
This means that Xia Guan knows Wang'an Town very well. I know a lot of things that are not clear to the lord and the lady. ”
Wang Xi continued: "Do you think that today's Wang'an Town is very lively, even if it is only when the sky is bright, it is already crowded and bustling?" ”
This is exactly the first feeling that Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi had when they first arrived in Wang'an Town this morning. The two of them were surprised, but kept as quiet as they could.
Wang Xi smiled and said: "This is all because, today is the 11th of November. This day is meaningless for Lord Hou and his wife, but it is a big day for the traders in Wang'an Town. Eleven, homophonic 'pick-up', eleven eleven, is 'pick-up suitable', which means picking up cheap good days. Wang'an Town began ten years ago, and this day was held as a big promotional event, and after careful operation in the past few years, it has become quite famous.
Because of this, every year on November 11, a few days before and after, the horses and carriages in Wang'an Town are in short supply, and they should be grabbed early before dawn. When Xia Guan went to visit Master Lu's workshop, he learned the time when Hou Ye and his wife left, and calculated it, thinking that when Hou Ye and his wife arrived in Wang'an Town, it was very likely that the carriages and horses had been rented and sold, so he hurriedly chased after him, and the result was as expected by Xia Guan. ”
After listening to Wang Xi's explanation, Gu Panxi couldn't help but be stunned.
What the heck?
Eleven eleven?
Pick up?
Isn't this Double 11?
Gu Panxi's mind was stunned, stunned by this experience similar to the chaos of time and space.
Dawu even has Double Eleven! Isn't that a little too avant-garde!
Shi Feiqing's explanation of Wang Xi is inclined to accept and recognize. Since Wang Xi has been a catcher in Wang'an Town, he is familiar with the affairs of Wang'an Town, and knows that Wang'an Town has this Double 11 Festival, so it is natural that he can catch up with them who are stranded in Wang'an Town.
In this matter, Wang Xi gave a reasonable explanation, but Gu Panxi was still not satisfied, and continued to probe: "Because Wang Dujun is familiar with the situation in Wang'an Town, he successfully caught up with us, and Mrs. Ben has already understood this matter. Now that Wang Overseer has sent the Tiger Talisman, then I think that tomorrow morning, Wang Overseer will return to the court as soon as possible to resume his life, right? ”
If Wang Xituo didn't leave, it would be difficult for Gu Panxi not to suspect that he had been ordered by Shi Wenzheng to find out what happened to Shi Feiqing and her leaving Le'an Mansion.
However, Wang Xi faced Gu Panxi's suspicions, but he dealt with it calmly and replied heartily: "That's right." Xia Guan will rush back to Le'an Mansion as soon as possible tomorrow, so as not to miss the early dynasty. For this reason, I can't send the two out of Wang'an Town, and I ask Lord Hou and Mrs. for forgiveness. ”
Alas?
Gu Panxi was stunned, she had already thought about how to deal with Wang Xi, who knew that Wang Xi would be so simple.
Could it be that she is looking forward to it, with the heart of a villain, to spend the belly of a gentleman?
Wang Xi seemed to see through Gu Panxi's thoughts, and he didn't shy away from suspicion, and said directly: "Madame is suspecting that after Xia Guan took up the post of Divine Machine Army Overseer, the old friendship accumulated with Mrs. Hou Ye will all be counted?" ”
Gu Panxi was a little embarrassed to be poked in her heart by Wang Xi so directly, but at this point, she still admitted categorically: "That's right." Mrs. Ben, as well as Master Hou, are worried about whether Wang Dujun can still be our friend. ”
Shi Feiqing continued: "The matter has come to this, Wang Dujun, we should both be open and honest. Please rest assured that the difficulties of each of his own masters are clear to the marquis, and the inner son also understands. Regardless of whether Wang Overseer's position is friend or foe, we will understand. Everything that happens after that, Benhou promises, only for the public, not for the private. We will not let this hatred spread. ”
Shi Feiqing's words are really heartfelt. Just think about it, if Wang Xi really followed Shi Wenzheng's order to target Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi, but whenever Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi were narrow-minded, once Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi successfully ascended to the throne in the future, don't say Wang Xi, even Wang Xi's relatives are at risk of retaliation. But Shi Feiqing made a promise for him now that he would not let the hatred spread, and it was really difficult for Wang Xi not to be moved.
Wang Xi raised his head and sighed, and said, "Lord Hou and Mrs. are so generous, the lower officials really admire it. Please rest assured that the lower officials will always want to be friends of the Hou Ye and his wife. But please also ask Lord Hou and Mrs. to be considerate, before we can conclude a long-term friendship, Xiaguan will indeed have to do a lot of things against his will. ”
"With your words, it's enough!"
Gu Panxi got up excitedly and held Wang Xi's hand tightly with Shi Feiqing. During this period, Gu Panxi's previous suspicions about Wang Xi were all swept away, and a feeling of sympathy naturally spread in the hearts of the three of them.
