Chapter 134: Talisman
Chapter 133: Talismans
Although Xiao Zhiming and the three of them didn't know the taste of food, they still stuffed some food into their stomachs. :3wし
When the guards put away the dishes and chopsticks with expressionless faces and served hot tea, they stood up, knowing that the master was about to summon them.
The main hall and the flower hall are next to each other, and there is a Bogu frame in the middle, if there is no screen to block it, you can see the situation of the main hall. Now it is like this, that is, it blocks the view, but the sound can still be heard clearly.
After a while, a clear voice came from the main hall, "Call the three of them over! ”
The three of them didn't wait for anyone to speak, and hurriedly went to the main hall. The rest waited in the flower hall.
Zheng Qingluan sat on the main seat, looking at the three people kneeling below, there was no superfluous expression on his face, "Get up! Don't kneel! You are all young! The ground is cold!"
When the three of them heard this, they beat a drum in their hearts! Does this mean that they are old and should not be used? Heaven and earth conscience! They are only in the prime of life!
Baiyi and Qiao Ji stepped forward and helped the three of them up.
Zheng Qingluan didn't seem to see their panic, "Sit down, sit down and talk slowly!" There was no joy or anger in his voice.
The more this is the case, the more bottomless the three of them become! They would rather not say a word, scold the master without saying a word, or even reward a few boards. It's better than what it doesn't care about now!
"Sit down, sit down and talk!" Zheng Qingluan pointed to the chair in his hand, "You guys stand, I have to tilt my head when I speak, it's uncomfortable!"
The three of them sat down at once! They couldn't think about it! Let the master look up at them, hehe! They didn't dare!
"Come one by one!" Zheng Qingluan looked at Xiao Zhiming, waiting for him to speak.
Xiao Zhiming stood up and was about to kneel, Zheng Qingluan immediately raised his hand, "Sit and talk well, don't kneel down without moving!
"Master, this is a talisman!" Xiao Zhiming took out a black token from his arms and offered it with both hands.
Zheng Qingluan signaled to Baiyi, who took the wooden plate and took it, and then respectfully placed it on the table next to Zheng Qingluan. Zheng Qingluan glanced at it, and then retracted his gaze, this thing, except for the special material, nothing else is special!
Seeing that Zheng Qingluan had collected the talisman, Xiao Zhiming was relieved. Eighteen years ago, in order to save his wife and children, he abandoned his robe, was greedy for life and feared death, abandoned the city and fled! Later, he was coerced by Xiaoxiao and took in spies by his side! The wife and daughter-in-law of the family are all Xiaoxiao! The villain's crime deserves death! Please ask the master to surrender his guilt!" After speaking, he knelt down.
Li Zhiqian and Guo Zhishen were taken aback, they didn't expect Xiao Zhiming to have a history of abandoning the city and fleeing! This is a hundred deaths on the battlefield, and it should be!
The two quietly looked at Zheng Qingluan's face, and there was no superfluous expression on a still immature face, obviously they had known it for a long time!
Zheng Qingluan didn't call out this time, just looked at Xiao Zhiming, and said lightly, "As a deserter, according to military law, it is not a pity for you to die! However, in the past ten years, although you have not made an inch, you can at least keep the border city surrounded by tigers and wolves, and this credit cannot be counted! Now, the merits are worth it! Can you be convinced?"
Xiao Zhiming didn't expect to pass the test so easily, he hurriedly nodded, "Convinced!
Zheng Qingluan looked at Xiao Zhiming, his eyes full of warnings, "You are a good father, but you are not a good general!
"Liao Yunniang's son, it's not your hand! It's the yin in the backyard who harmed that child! You just follow the trend! You are not a ruthless person who puts your own flesh and blood to death! Xiao Sanniang is not a 'dead baby', she is your daughter and Liao Yunniang's! Just to keep your daughter from being implicated, you would rather bear the reputation of killing your son and killing your daughter! This is also to let Xiao Xintai and Xiao Xinping release the anger in their hearts! I am afraid that they will transfer their resentment against Liao Yunniang to Xiao Sanniang and make the brothers and sisters discord! That's why I said, you're a rare good father!" Zheng Qingluan's words were a little emotional!
Xiao Zhiming raised his head, with tears in his eyes! I didn't expect that by now, this little girl was left to know her thoughts!
"It is precisely because you are the general of the Xiao family army that you are targeted by others. Although you have an unshirkable responsibility, you were also implicated by the Xiao family, so that you can't have a family now!"
"According to military law, you should be beheaded! According to the law, you can be forgiven!"
Your grandfather lost his life for the Savior! Your father died on the battlefield! No matter what mistakes he committed, he will not be able to take your life!"
Xiao Zhiming attached himself to the ground and cried out!
Zheng Qingluan looked at Xiao Er who was standing at the door, "Passing on the military order of the Marshal's Mansion, Xiao Zhiming is not strict in governing the family, and he is not repairing the internal affairs, so he will be dismissed as the main general." However, he has been guarding the border city for ten years, and he has made great contributions, and he respects the 'General'. He was ordered to hand over military affairs within three days and prepare for the establishment of the 'Military Academy of the Imperial Border Army'. ”
Xiao Er glanced at Zheng Qingluan in amazement, and then turned around and went out to give orders.
Xiao Zhiming knelt on the ground and was blinded! Although he lost his military power, he was given the title of honor! It can be regarded as a good death! Now he has been given an errand to prepare for the construction of a military academy, what does this mean! He also didn't care about crying on the ground, so he quickly got up and wiped his tears, "Master, what is this military academy?"
"Train generals in the army, and give the current middle and lower-level generals in the army a place to study for further study!" Zheng Qingluan explained, "You veterans, you must pass on the lessons and lessons on the battlefield to the younger generations without reservation! This is not difficult to do." ”
Of course, this is not difficult to do! This is a good errand! The role of the Guozijian in the capital is the same, and no one dares to underestimate it. Coupled with the honorific title, this is definitely a level up. The right is small, the position is high!
Xiao Zhiming hurriedly thanked him! I have never felt so relaxed in my heart.
"As for Liao Yunniang, you can take it back to your own house and dispose of it!" He turned his head and instructed Baiyi, "Let Xiao Xintai bring the Fang clan over!"
Seeing Xiao Xintai supporting Fang's family, the two knelt down in front of her, Zheng Qingluan looked at Fang's family, "Let's talk about it!"
"My father-in-law doesn't know anything! He's just a fool, fooled by the person next to him!" Fang raised his face, "I bear all the blame, and it has nothing to do with others!"
Zheng Qingluan looked at Xiao Xintai, "What do you say?"
"She is my wife who is married to a famous family! I can't say that there are many unavoidable hardships! If the master can spare her life, even if she is poisoned and dumb and blind, as long as she is left with a life, I am willing to be a cow and a horse, and let the master drive her!" Xiao Xintai's tone was very calm, and it could be seen that he had made up his mind.
"This is rare!" Zheng Qingluan seemed to ponder for a moment, "That's it!"
"The Fang family is confined to the house, and he will not be allowed to leave the house for the rest of his life!Xiao Xintai will go to the school to teach, enlighten the children, and he will not be allowed to participate in military affairs for the rest of his life!" Zheng Qingluan looked at Xiao Xintai, "It's good to do it yourself!"
Xiao Xintai kowtowed and thanked him, and took the Fang clan down! The Fang clan shook around the ghost gate, clutching her husband tightly, crying silently.
Zheng Qingluan looked at Xiao Zhiming, "Your second son Xiao Xinping, Ming'er will come to Shuaifu on an errand!"
Xiao Zhiming hurriedly agreed. Although there is a suspicion of being hostage, it is also a shortcut to enter the body by the master's side. There's no reason not to say yes! There's no courage not to say yes!
Li Zhiqian and Guo Zhishen glanced at each other, this is the master's stubborn plastering of gold on Xiao Zhiming's face! Using the crime of 'not governing the family strictly and not cessing internal trouble', he has covered up the actual sin! What does this mean? What is the relationship between master and servant? Don't be funny? Who believes this reason!
Li Zhiqian couldn't understand the little girl in front of him, he held the talisman with both hands, "The little one is guilty!" When Baiyi collected the talisman, he also knelt down respectfully.
"You-" Zheng Qingluan chuckled, "If Xiao Zhiming didn't hand over the talisman in a complicated environment, it can be regarded as 'loyalty'! Then I'll take the word 'can' on you! This ability is the reason why I use you!"
Li Zhiqian looked up in amazement, not understanding what this little girl meant?
"In the past 10 years, although the border city has not experienced a major war, conflicts are inevitable! In wartime, you have played an irreplaceable role! You have made great contributions to defending the border city! Although there are problems of one kind or another, the flaws are not concealed. Zheng Qingluan made a conclusion to Li Zhiqian in the past ten years. Looking at Xiao Er, "Pass the order, and Li Zhiqian will be promoted to the chief general on the same day, and handle all the daily affairs in the army!
Li Zhiqian was just a mechanical thanksgiving, get up, and sit back! His mind was chaotic and a little confused!
Guo Zhishen saw the results of the first two, and he was not so worried, he presented the talisman and said, "Please forgive the master!"
"Hehe!" Zheng Qingluan smiled, "You are a person, you have no great merit, and you are not a big mistake." On you, there's just a 'slippery' word!"
"This word is not necessarily derogatory! Sleek, oily, and can also play the role of a lubricant! In the past ten years, you have adjusted the relationship between Xiao Zhiming and Li Zhiqian, and it can be regarded as a credit!" Zheng Qingluan looked at Guo Zhishen and smiled meaningfully.
Guo Zhishen was almost not scared to death! What did he regulate the relationship between the two? Needless to say, it sounded so good! Wasn't it just a blind collusion between the two of them, so that neither of them could take the top spot? What did he do if he said it so well? It made people feel bottomless in their hearts! He didn't have any good intentions at that time. He turned his head and saw that the two bastards were also in a cold sweat, and his heart was a little balanced.
"If you have merit, you will be rewarded!" Zheng Qingluan's tone was indescribably relaxed, "Our border city, in the past, nine out of ten were soldiers. Now that the land has been divided, workshops have been built, and pastures have been built, many ordinary people will inevitably come to the border city next year. If there are more people, there will naturally be more things! In our border city, we can't just have people who govern the army, but not people who govern the people! Besides, your character is mellow and flexible, so you should be in charge of this matter! It is equivalent to the prefect of other places! I don't think I have wronged you!"
"No grievances! No grievances!" Guo Zhishen hurriedly responded. It's good if you don't hit the board. How dare you cry out! Without military power, other rights are fine! Compared with Li Zhiqian, the division of labor is different!
Zheng Qingluan smiled, "If the order goes down, Guo Zhishen will be promoted to one level, with the rank of general, and will be in charge of civil affairs!" ”
That is, it is not under the control of Li Zhiqian! This is good!
