Chapter 491: A Modest Young Man
After receiving Yuan Zheng's appointment, Ma Ming's heart did not fluctuate so much, and he was even a little happy in his heart.
And I'm very happy.
It's not that he's sensible, Ma Minggui is one of the leaders of the Twelve Heavenly Wolves, and he is proficient in leading troops to fight, but in his study career in Jixia School Palace, Ma Ming really hasn't accumulated much actual combat experience, at most, he just leads some people to crusade against the bandits.
Now there is an old general like Wang Wei, leading the way and pointing in front of him, which makes Ma Ming's heart breathe a sigh of relief.
This night, Ma Ming spent it in his heart.
Thinking about it, it is easier for them to govern the land of Lingzhou, more than enough, literati on the road, there is experience of predecessors to learn from, only need to understand what has happened in the state and county in recent years, for the customs of this place, tax and servitude after understanding, you can prescribe the right medicine.
The main opponents of the literati are actually their own people, and the literati are not just talking.
If you want to talk about another opponent, it is the common people, but the wisdom of the common people, in the world of great contention, how can it be compared with Pang Hai in the land of Jizhou?
In the early morning, the autumn rain stopped slightly.
Ma Ming got up very early, his five juniors and disciples got up very early, the sound of the rain knocking on the windowsill seemed crisp and pleasant, if it was spring, the rain knocked on the windowsill, it would look more vibrant, as if returning to his youth.
After a simple breakfast, the six brothers sat around a table and began to make tea.
In fact, the six brothers of Ma Mingshi do not like to drink tea, and they can be said to know nothing about the tea ceremony.
The tea leaves like Da Hong Pao are a bit too expensive, Ma Ming and they can't drink them for the time being, although the monthly income is considerable, but Ma Ming still wants to save some silver taels, and when the silver is used, it is only a little.
Helping some shy ordinary pawns is also the tradition of every general, and it should be a tradition.
At least in the top of the clouds, the two brothers Li Chen and Li Ding, who often share their military exploits with the people around them without hesitation, often donate generously when they encounter pawns who are having a hard time.
Ma Ming also knows this in his heart, not to learn from Li Chen, but that Ma Ming himself has such political consciousness.
Ma Ming opened his mouth and said: "In the battle of Shoushan not long after, we went to the battlefield with General Wang Wei, what do you think in your hearts?"
Yang Hong said: "I don't have any feelings, I just think that the six of us should go to General Wang's mansion later, and it is a serious thing to say goodbye to the dock. ”
"But ah, we are shy in our pockets, and we can't come up with anything decent to comfort General Wang Wei. ”
"I'm ashamed. ”
Ma Ming also thought like this in his heart, and after thinking about it, he said: "Worship the dock This kind of thing, bring some gifts, and say a little compliment verbally, in fact, it is not interesting, anyway, the army is about to march and fight, let's be on the battlefield, if there is a chance, take care of General Wang Wei." ”
"In addition, when the time comes, we will also take the initiative to give up the merits to General Wang, so that the military merits that are conveniently given to General Wang will be given to General Wang. ”
"To be honest, General Wang is really our lucky star. ”
Yang Hong and others thought so.
In fact, they themselves have thought that if they win the first battle, they can naturally keep the reputation of the Jixia School Palace, and it can also make their faces decent, even if it is a trivial victory, it can be regarded as a clear explanation to the big guys.
But if you lose the first battle, it will be a little embarrassing.
Not only is it not conducive to the growth of soldiers and horses in the future, but it is also not conducive to the reputation of the Jixia School Palace.
It will even affect the caftan brown them, just thinking about it, I think it is a very terrible thing.
As for the military merits that Ma Ming said were convenient to give up, they were not blatantly given to Wang Wei, but some insignificant, or some decision-making skills, which were given to Wang Wei with added fuel and vinegar, so outsiders couldn't see it, even Li Chen and Fu Xuanhuang couldn't see it.
But Wang Wei has a number in his heart, and when he came to the top of the clouds, the most important thing is not to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions and stabilize the foundation.
It's about having a good relationship with the people around you first, and then talking about things later.
Ma Ming's heart longs for military merit, but Ma Ming is also a person with very lofty ambitions.
The battle of Jizhou can only be said to be Ma Ming's touchstone, and it is definitely not an opportunity for Ma Ming to prove himself.
"Ladies and gentlemen, let's go to General Wang's mansion to visit, everyone take it easy, even though we go to the dock in destitute places. Ma Ming laughed.
Yang Hong and others also smiled bitterly.
In fact, if you really want to give Wang Wei a gift, the six heavenly wolves, as long as they write their own experience and understanding in the martial arts into a codex and give it to Wang Wei, this is also a very heavy gift.
Even if Wang Wei is also in the realm, the higher the realm of cultivation, the more I understand the importance of learning, and by the way, I will take my own enlightenment.
But Ma Ming didn't plan to do this, because if he did, Wang Wei would look down on Ma Ming, and Ma Ming knew this very well in his heart.
Moreover, a martial artist in the realm, in order to worship the dock, has to give away his experience to others, and the appearance is really ugly.
This morning, Wang Wei got up very early, when he was in Cangyun City, Wang Wei liked to sleep lazily, often at noon, he walked out of his bedroom lazily, but the 15,000 recruits under Wang Wei would never sleep lazy.
The Lord will be able to do anything wrong, and if the people under his command do the same, they will be in a mess.
I got up early, maybe I was used to living in Cangyun City, and suddenly I came to Qiushui County, but I was a little uncomfortable with the water and soil in my mood, so I got up very early, if there was a beautiful woman who slept with Wang Wei at night, probably at this time, I wouldn't get up.
A simple square courtyard is Wang Wei's temporary general's mansion.
The only housekeeper, who is also a twenty-five or sixteen-year-old young man, is from Cangyun City, and has practiced some hard skills, martial arts cultivation, and feelings.
It is also the future military general that Wang Wei focuses on cultivating at the moment.
Jiang Tao ran over briskly from the gatehouse, bowed slightly, and said, "General, Ma Ming, they are here." ”
Wang Wei was not surprised.
Today, either Wang Wei went to Ma Ming to worship the pier, or Ma Ming came to Wang Wei to worship the pier.
If Wang Wei went to Ma Ming, it would be after noon, after all, there are veterans, and there are also veterans there.
If Ma Ming came to Wang Wei, it would be after noon, and the rules would be a little too much.
stretched his waist, but asked Jiang Tao: "The big man is here, are you nervous?"
Jiang Tao's skin is average, but his strength is extraordinary, Wang Wei has also taught some exercises, and it is unknown to what extent his martial arts cultivation will reach in the future.
Respectfully responded: "If it was before, my heart would really be nervous, after all, people are big people who came out of the Jixia School Palace, and I am just a small person who rises to the bucket, and when I meet a real person, I almost kneel." ”
"But not now, because I followed the general, broadened my horizons, and learned a lot of knowledge. ”
Therefore, I was not nervous. ”
In fact, there is still a little bit of tension, Jixia School Palace, for the poor young people in the world, for young people, is a sacred place, is the dream of the spiritual hometown.
Wang Wei grinned and said: "Good boy, this sycophant is good, go back and reward you with two taels of silver, go open the door and let them in." ”
Jiang Tao said: "Let's prepare, make the tea, set the tables and chairs, and then I'll open the door, General, you don't have maids and maids here, many trivial things, are all done by you and me, suddenly someone came to visit, we were a little busy." ”
Wang Wei asked rhetorically, "Ma Ming, did they bring gifts?"
Jiang Tao said: "I came empty-handed, but the momentum of the six people standing together is very sufficient, although they pretend to be very gentle." ”
Wang Wei turned around and smiled: "Since they didn't bring gifts, why should I be hospitable, if you eat, everyone has just had breakfast, I'll make tea, you go open the door." ”
Jiang Tao frowned, and while walking, he thought about the doorway here, and he couldn't figure it out for a long time.
Wang Wei walked into the main hall, set up the tables and chairs with his hands and feet, and made a pot of Da Hong Pao, originally wanted to entertain Ma Ming and the six people with the Qinling tea given to him by Su Yi, but after thinking about it, the friendship is not so profound, so keep the good tea for yourself, and besides, the grade of the Da Hong Pao is already very high.
After a long time, Jiang Tao took Ma Ming and the six people to the main hall.
Wang Wei had already pretended to sit on the main seat, picked up the teacup, and tasted it by himself, quite a landlord.
Seeing Ma Ming and the others coming, he skillfully put down the teacup, got up and smiled very politely: "Here, hurry up, please take a seat." ”
Ma Ming led the crowd to pay homage and said: "The junior Ma Ming, with five junior brothers, has seen General Wang. ”
Wang Wei said familiarly: "What is there to see and see, they will all be their own people in the future, where are so many polite words." ”
Ma Ming smiled restrainedly, and then sat down, Jiang Tao picked up the teapot with a lot of eyes, poured water for the tea in order, and after doing these things, he stood behind Wang Wei like a door god, and then waited for the dispatch.
Since they have all come to their own homes, opening remarks and the like, of course, are more appropriate for Wang Wei.
Wang Wei said in an old-fashioned manner: "I heard that outside the Jixia School Palace, there are two 10,000-year-old trees, which are rare Sun Divine Trees, and Taiyin Divine Trees, are they true or false?"
The Sun Sacred Tree, also known as the Fuso Sacred Tree, usually grows on islands deep in the sea, and is extremely rare to see, and it is said that it is the place where the golden crow settles.
Taiyin Sacred Tree, both the Water Virtue Divine Tree, is usually in some hidden shady slopes of famous mountains and rivers.
In fact, most of the good wood that has always been on the shady slope and sunny slope can only be used for heating, building cattle sheds, pig sheds, etc.
Ma Ming responded gently: "There is indeed this matter, it is the feng shui of the palace master for the Jixia School Palace, which was brought back by the originator from the East China Sea and the Yuxu Mountains, and it is indeed ten thousand years old, in the early days, these two trees grew in the Jixia School Palace, which violated the laws of nature, and they are the elders in the palace, day and night to help it grow with the true yuan, about two thousand years later, these two trees have also adapted to the water and soil of the Jixia School Palace, but in essence, they have gone against the Sun Divine Wood and the Taiyin Divine Wood, and they have become a school of their own. ”
Wang Wei suddenly realized: "So that's the case, it's me who is lonely and unheard." ”
Ma Mingdao: "Actually, there is nothing, we are used to it, and we feel that everything is as usual." ”
Wang Wei said with a smile: "It's not a secret, when I was young, I also wanted to go to Jixia School Palace to study, but at that time, I caught up with the wartime, and I had no choice but to join the army, and missed my good years of studying in Jixia School Palace. ”
Ma Ming couldn't tell whether Wang Wei was telling the truth or falsehood, because the Jixia School Palace was really attractive and made many people fascinated.
Wang Wei did yearn for Jixia School Palace when he was young, but he really didn't have the idea of going to Jixia School Palace to study.
Ma Ming said: "In the battle of Shoushan not long after, it is also a blessing for the six of our brothers to be able to fight with seniors like you, general, and I hope that when the time comes, the general can give advice, and the junior Ma Ming is grateful." ”
Wang Wei hurriedly smiled and said: "This is a bit out of sight, I have said it all, everyone is their own people, and they are all doing things under the same court." ”
"After you came here, the soldiers were outnumbered, and I had 15,000 men and horses, all of whom were new soldiers, and it was too late for me to be happy to have you six young men to help me. ”
Ma Ming responded with a rather low profile: "For the first time in the military, it is our blessing and our creation to have the guidance of our predecessors and nobles. ”
Wang Wei originally thought that Ma Ming should be a high-minded and arrogant young man, this person is very strong, outstanding, and has a transformation realm cultivation at a young age, although he is a little vain like himself, but he is young.
Unexpectedly, after real contact, this young man was calm and introverted, and understood the righteousness.
There is still arrogance in the bones, and if you are not afraid of arrogance in your bones, you are afraid that there is no arrogance in your bones.
At least on the surface, this young man is not as arrogant and arrogant as he is rumored.
Working with such a young man, Wang Wei's heart is also much more relaxed, if it is a young man who doesn't understand fart, Wang Wei will really go to Su Yi to complain.
At this time, Wang Wei understood why Mr. Su Yi would frustrate Ma Ming's spirit.
It is a good material, it needs to be carefully polished, as for whether it can go hand in hand with Li Chen and Fu Xuanhuang in the future, it depends on Ma Ming's future creation.
