Chapter 62: The Wrath of the Candle Dragon
"Hmm~Not bad~"
The old man's voice sounded faintly.
A gentle sentence, but it is like a spring thunderstorm, shaking through the wilderness.
The candle dragon had a stern expression and a blank face.
But as soon as he spoke, the whole atmosphere suddenly eased.
In Dr. Cheng's heart, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and it seemed that he had not guessed wrong.
Qingyang's face still did not change, just looking at the old man like that.
No matter whether the other party looks stern or seems to be praising now, they are testing themselves, let you blow the wind and waves, and I will not move.
The candle dragon suddenly smiled.
Like a thousand-year-old rock, a hard face, like a 10,000-year-old glacier, a stern look, in a blink of an eye, it seems that the glacier is melting, the spring flowers are blooming, and the smile is so kind.
"Be as strong as your mother!"
The candle dragon stretched out his left hand, patted a simple seat on the left, and chuckled: "Come, come to my old man, sit down and talk!"
The hundreds of soldiers of the Zuo Division around were dumbfounded, they had been serving the Zuo Shigong for many years, and the old man who had always been extremely strict had seen him for the first time, showing such a kind smile.
"Thank you Master Zuo for giving me a seat, dare to ask this gentleman with a high surname?"
Qingyang didn't sit down immediately, he thanked the candle dragon first, and then looked at the middle-aged scribe next to him.
The person who can sit side by side with Zuo Shigong Candle Dragon is by no means an ordinary scribe, he senses that this scribe is strong in blood and blood, and he is comparable to Zhong Bo, and he is definitely not a weak scholar.
Candle Dragon patted his head and laughed: "Really, when you're old, this memory is not good, you just call Mr. Crane, and it can be regarded as your mother's old acquaintance!"
"It turns out that my mother is old, meet Mr. Tsuru!"
Qingyang Changyi, in front of the candle dragon and the scribe, he did not use the spirit sense anymore, so as not to be seen by others, and only saluted with the etiquette of the juniors.
The middle-aged scribe had a strange face and seemed helpless.
smiled bitterly at the candle dragon: "Master Zuo, why make fun of me again, Qingluan is such a miraculous woman, how can there be an old knowledge like me?"
This middle-aged scribe laughed at himself in his mouth, but he had a sense of resentment, and he clearly had a story with his mother, and he didn't know what the relationship between the two was.
Qingyang guessed in his heart, his face remained silent, and he continued to listen.
"Qingluan has a heroic and open-minded temperament, she is the only strange woman I have seen, how could she be relieved about that incident back then, she has not been seen for many years, there must be a reason for it!"
Seeing that the middle-aged scribe looked depressed, Candle Dragon didn't say any more, he turned to look at Qingyang, and let out another long sigh in his mouth.
"Alas, I think back then, the first time I saw you, I was still a baby in swaddling clothes, and for many years, I was a vassal of the monarch and the lord of the Qing clan!"
For this old man, Qingyang felt that there was no malice, but he was not sure of his true intentions, it was only a bone sickle and other things, and it was definitely not worth a Zuo Shigong to come.
The topic shifted to himself, Qingyang smiled faintly: "I'm tired of Master Zuo, I'm in Qingshi, everything is fine!"
Before the words fell, the candle dragon sighed again and said, "Your mother left you in the sealed land, and I have never come to visit you, but I am afraid that you will have doubts in your heart."
But I can assure you that your mother is by no means a ruthless person, and it is your mother who has repeatedly told me not to inquire about important matters.
The Qing clan has Zhong Kai, the head of the family, and the dragon bird in the housekeeper of Liqiu, which is enough for you to grow up safely, which is also an arrangement made by your mother.
If it weren't for Dr. Cheng reporting to the king, saying that you had been ambushed by the wild people of the Red Ghost Department several times, Wei Changqing would also write to me to explain the matter, otherwise I wouldn't have come. ”
Behind him, Uncle Zhong's face turned red, if it weren't for Ye Mengqiu's hard work to save Qing Cheng's life, he would have committed an irreparable mistake.
"I'm a child, and I don't know how to care for my elders, but I bothered Master Zuo!" Qingyang bowed.
Although I have two memories, I learned about these old things for the first time, and my mind changed dramatically, analyzing whether these words were reliable.
The candle dragon should not lie, it is high and powerful, and it is an honest person, and there is no point in lying to himself.
What's more, there are also Uncle Zhong and Qiu Niang, as their mother's former retainers, they must know their mother's old days, so it seems that Master Zuo should be his own person.
The culprit behind the murder of himself may be because he is afraid of Master Zuo, these old friends of his mother, so he only dares to secretly instruct Dr. Fei.
Cheng Yu became more and more frightened the more he listened, he didn't expect that Zuo Shigong Candle Dragon had such a close relationship with the Qing family, in case Qingyang remembered what happened that day.
immediately bowed down and pleaded guilty: "Master Zuo, Sergeant Qingyang, was murdered by the Red Ghost Wild People in Beilin City, it was really my negligence, and I am willing to make amends with a thousand stones of corn!"
Zuo Shigong Candle Dragon, his expression was noncommittal.
Cheng Yu hurriedly said: "The Red Ghost Department, hidden in the courtyard of a wealthy merchant, is the death of the sergeant of Minhang, the Min family will not be able to escape the involvement, I will play the king, remove the title of Min Xing, and reduce the title of the Min family!"
Candle Dragon's eyes flickered, and he nodded: "This is just like the words, Min Xing, as a vassal of the king, actually colluded with the red ghost savages and plotted against him, and he should be severely punished."
The Beilin City is a golden soup, and there are red ghost savages sneaking into it, the king is extremely shocked, do you know Chengdong, you almost committed a heinous mistake?"
"This, please also ask Master Zuo to make it clear!"
Cheng Yu was uneasy in his heart, what he was most afraid of finally happened.
On the candle dragon's face, the originally kind expression disappeared in an instant, replaced by an extremely stern gaze.
I can't tell if it's murderous or the power of the superior, this heavy pressure made Cheng Yu almost feel out of breath, panicked in his heart, and immediately leaned over to ask for guilt.
"Zuo Shigong is angry, although his subordinates are not talented, in the past ten years, he has been stationed in Beilin City.
I dare not say that I am conscientious and conscientious, I can't sleep at night, but I am also diligent, and the heavy grain and grass required by the border cities in northern Xinjiang have never been wrong!
What's more, the Red Ghost Department has infiltrated the city, but it has been wiped out and has not been able to make a mess, please Zuo Shigong to investigate!"
"Alas, until now, you don't understand what is wrong!"
Zuo Shigong's voice was tinged with a hint of disappointment.
"Huh?" Cheng Yu was a little puzzled.
Candle Dragon said slowly: "Chengdong, you have served as the city lord for more than ten years, do you know the origin of Beilin City?"
"I know it well, this is my Xingguo, the city of golden soup! Now it is a warehouse of rice and grain!"
Cheng Yu has recovered a little bit of confidence, if you want to govern Beilin City, his ability to deal with government affairs can be regarded as the top ten in Xingguo.
"You know it well, you also turned a golden soup city into a big bazaar? Caused a scandal about the infiltration of the Red Ghost Ministry? Is this still the first fortress of the Xing Kingdom twenty years ago?"
The candle dragon glared angrily.
Cheng Tong felt aggrieved and defended: "Master Zuo, since a hundred years ago, Xianyu was defeated and the territory expanded northward, and Beilin City was not a place for the four battles in the border fortress, not to mention the Red Ghost Department, there was not much trouble~"
Qingyang shook his head in his heart, it seems that Chengtong is only suitable for a peaceful place, and the slogan is good.
Sure enough, I heard Zuo Shigong say angrily: "Beilin City is not a place of four wars? Have you forgotten how the two disasters of Xing Guo came about? Haven't you seen the four words "Forgetting to fight and being dangerous?"
