Chapter 13: Court Notes
After Chen Mianmian left, Zuo Qian somehow suddenly remembered the training in Jinyiwei back then, when their group of children were only as old as they are now, and they were driven to the ice and snow nest by the head of the sect to train in winter.
And they all don't wear cotton clothes and cotton pants, they are bare-chested and barefoot, wearing a pair of bull-nosed shorts and bare feet, rolling in the ice and snow, and it often snows in Yanjing in winter, although it is not as good as the outside of the gate, but it is not warm.
When Zuo Qian had such an idea, the group of boys that Zuo Qian is training now are bitter, and before dawn the next day, he took a group of orphans into the mountain, and they were all naked, the only thing better than Zuo Qian was that they wore a pair of shoes on their feet.
Zuo Qian didn't let them do anything else, just ran in the mountains and forests against the knife.
In this bitter cold place, most of the trees that grow are mainly coniferous forests, and even the low bushes on the ground are thorny hardwoods, which makes the children who have just entered the mountain scream.
However, those children who were in pain so badly, after seeing that Zuo Qian was also covered in blood, and they didn't even snort, they didn't cry, after all, children need a role model and idol, they looked at Zuo Qian, although he was his master, and his age was similar to his own, he could endure training, why couldn't he?
So the next training was led by Zuo Qian, and he was much harder and more crazy than the previous training in the field, and I saw that those children were like wolf cubs, and they were all screaming during training.
The practice of martial arts pays attention to the summer training and winter training, not to mention the three nines in Heishuibei.
Time passed day by day in training, and it seemed that it was about to come to the end of the year, although there were not many people in Heishui North, but during this time, in order to prepare for the New Year's goods, everyone came to Heishui Town from all over the place to exchange for the items they needed.
Seeing that the heavy snow blocked the mountain, Zuo Qian didn't take anyone into the mountain for training, and it was rare for everyone to rest for a day.
Zuo Qian, who was wearing a cotton coat, was sitting in the corner of the training ground at this time, his eyes revealed the loneliness and loneliness that did not match his age, he quietly looked at the group of children who were playing crazy on the training ground, although he was similar in age to them, but his psychology was that he was an old man who was almost thirty, how could he play with a group of little children.
Zuo Qian and this group of orphans set a title that only they can shout 'Shang', this is when he was learning from Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, when Zhu Yuanzhang was in charge of the righteous army, King Xiaoming named Zhu Yuanzhang as the political affairs of Jiangnan Pingzhang, and later when Zhu Yuanzhang defrauded the Yuan Court, the Yuan Court also sealed Zhu Yuanzhang a same position.
He knew that this group of orphans would be the sword in his hand in the future, and that they would be the most faithful.
"Superior, superior", I saw an eleven or twelve-year-old child, wearing a thick cotton coat and a thick felt hat on his head, panting and running over.
Seeing that the person who came was a child from a liberal arts class, although he knew him, he really couldn't remember the name.
"What's wrong?" Zuo Qian asked.
The boy calmed down and said, "The little monkey of the martial arts class, the tongue is stuck to the knife."
As soon as he heard that this was such a thing, Zuo Qian was funny when he thought about it, they had done this before.
"Let's go, let's go see first"
As soon as Zuo Qian finished speaking, the child who reported the news ran forward.
After a while, Zuo Qian came to the place where the accident occurred, and saw a large group of children gathered there, with a slightly smaller boy in the middle, holding a knife in both hands, his mouth wide open, but his tongue stuck to it.
Seeing Zuo Qian coming, everyone automatically got out of the way, and after Zuo Qian looked at it, he said very ghostly: "Sprinkle urine on the knife, remember to sprinkle it on the place where his tongue sticks."
This is terrible, as soon as I heard it, the group of people who were there began to take off their pants, and the child called the little monkey almost cried.
"Okay, okay, no kidding, go find some warm water, just pour it on the sticky place" Zuo Qian didn't seem to leave a shadow in people's hearts.
Those guys who started to take off their pants originally wanted to drench others in the face, but now they can't do it, and they suddenly feel bored.
But this is just a small episode, of course, it is a rare entertainment for this group of children who are either reading or training all day.
Zuo Qian, who was bored on the training ground, only then remembered that Chen Mianmian had to go to Dama Mountain to inquire about the news, it had been almost two months, why didn't he come to talk to himself, did he die in Dama Mountain? Zuo Qian guessed very maliciously in his heart.
Of course, as soon as Zuo Qian finished speaking, Chen Mianmian, who was drinking tea in the City Lord's Mansion, sneezed, "Could it be that who is thinking about me?"
The next day, Zuo Qian didn't train, and after explaining first, he ran to the City Lord's Mansion.
After entering the city lord, Zuo Qian came to the lobby and saw Chen Mianmian reading a book, which made Zuo Qian feel very strange, because he had never seen Chen Mianmian read.
Seeing Zuo Qian coming, Chen Mianmian didn't mean to get up, just rolled his eyelids and continued to read his book. Zuo Qian complained very unhappily in his heart, which of the two of us is the master.
"Uncle Chen, how is the situation in Da Ma Shan?" Zuo Qian was unhappy, but he still had to ask Chen Mianmian.
Hearing Zuo Qian's question, Chen Mianmian didn't look up, as if there was a very attractive inner softness in that book.
"Da Ma Shan is not worried, I warned them, when the time comes, you can lead that group of little cubs to destroy it", this sentence is in the entire Heishui North, and only Chen Mianmian has the confidence and ability to say it.
Hearing Chen Mianmian say this, Zuo Qian was relieved.
After Chen Mianmian finished speaking, he put down the book in his hand, took out a posthumous bag from behind him and handed it to Zuo Qian.
"What is this?" Zuo Qian had some doubts.
Chen Mianmian didn't say much: "Court Notes"
Hearing Chen Mianmian say this, Zuo Qian is still very interested, after all, this thing is not something that ordinary people can see, when he was in Jinyiwei before, there were only more than 1,000 people in Tingji, although Tingji is not a very precious thing, but it is definitely a symbol of status.
Generally, only officials above the fifth rank and nobles above the viscount can see it, and the rest of the people can't see it, even if you are a rich businessman.
The court record is to record what happened in the court and the capital, such as what the emperor ate today, which official was dismissed, or the pink deeds of a certain official, and the rest is nothing.
Zuo Qian picked up the signage bag, took out the thick stack of court records, and was very interested at first, but the more he looked at it, the more boring it became, and there were only two interesting things to say, one was the emperor's best chess skills and the princess's fornication, but he was sealed as a concubine, and the other was the temple of Honglu Temple who beat the Xiangguo of the dynasty, and the rest was nothing.
After reading the court records, Zuo Qian said with disdain: "It's boring, it's all peachy incidents, and I don't know what to see."
"The content is not good-looking, but now the court has sent us a court note, isn't it very revealing?" Chen Mianmian put down his hand and said.
After thinking about it, Zuo Qian said: "It's nothing more than that our Emperor His Majesty sees us boring, and then sends such an even more boring thing to relieve our boredom, and His Majesty the Emperor thinks that we have this qualification."
"The qualifications are qualified, in fact, it is also a warning, don't you see that there is a court record that says this? Cang Shunbo worked hard in Heishui North, did not forget his ambition, and wanted to exterminate all the bandits in Heishui", Chen Mianmian said quietly.
Hearing Chen Mianmian say this, Zuo Qian's heart also jumped, no wonder Chen Mianmian let himself see these things today.
Spring comes and goes, time is like sand in the hand, slowly passing in the daily training, time flies, this is five years.
In the past five years, under Chen Mianmian's arrangement, the students of the Liberal Arts Bannong Mulberry Garden in the training ground, and the farmers who Chen Mianmian invited from other places to settle in Heishui Bei'an, have cultivated many fields on this black land, and in five years, the grain of the City Lord's Mansion has filled several warehouses.
And the two books that Zuo Qian got also found a successor, and the things in the books began to gradually become physical objects in front of Zuo Qian's eyes.
Five years is not a long time, Zuo Qian has grown into a big guy, about seven feet tall, a cyan robe is very dusty, and his black hair is tied at the back of his head with a hairband at will, if it weren't for the Yanling knife around his waist, Zuo Qian now feels like a merry man.
As early as two years ago, Zuo Qian felt the knife intent, and at the same time broke through to the innate realm, and the group of orphans under him have now become the knives in his hands, although they are still a little tender, but no one dares to underestimate them.
The Dama Mountain bandits, who were very large in Zuo Qian's eyes, were razed to the ground by Zuo Qian and the group of orphans a year ago, although a few were injured at that time, but none of them died.
Today is the day when Zuo Qian's team was formed and named, in the training ground, those teenagers stood straight, although under the blowing of the spring breeze, everyone still felt very hot, because their hearts were excited, and today was their important day.
Seeing the young faces below, Zuo Qian also had something called hot blood surging straight to his heart, although the blood was surging, Zuo Qian calmed down in an instant.
'Although the blood is still hot, it has passed the grade of blood' Zuo Qian often muttered to himself when he was alone.
Looking at the three phalanxes below, they were all dressed in black, but the patterns on the clothes were different and the weapons in their hands were different.
This will be the team that I will rely on in the future, and it will also be the sharp knife that I will use to cut through obstacles for myself when I dominate the world.
It's like a dream.
In those fanatical eyes, Zuo Qian could see that as long as he gave an order, even if he let them die, he would not hesitate to jump into the sea of swords and fires, this is where his confidence comes from.
