Chapter 10: The Arrangement is Clear
Liang Jianfang didn't leave any room for Yun Chu to refuse, Zheng Rentai and Su Dingfang saw the huge benefits brought by Yun Chu's support for the army early on. Don't look at it as just a banquet, sing a few good songs, and dance a few dances that can't be put on the stage, but the soldiers eat this set.
It was an honor for them, the only thing they could boast about when they didn't get the great reward of the Zhenguan years. The long table banquet is really delicious, and a person always has to eat it once in his life. What the nobles eat is different from what the leaders eat, but this does not include these military generals. These old-school generals, after going out to fight, still follow the old habit of eating as much as possible with the soldiers.
Therefore, they are not uncomfortable with the food in the Jinchangfang canteen, even if it is pig meat, they will eat it correctly.
The army eats in the army's way of eating, and since it is a long table banquet today, no one is talking nonsense, but it is a very fierce meal, and even the anti-poison that Liang Jianfang admires very much, they did not drink a few sips.
Li Ji put the last celery in the small bowl in front of him in his mouth, and then used the whole wheat slow head to clean the soup in several small bowls, eat it, and finally use tea to shake a few small bowls, which was regarded as an after-dinner soup.
"You are good friends with Zhao Xiaozu, so do you also have a grudge against the old man for scolding him?" Yun Chu smiled: "No, no, the juniors dare to put their beaks there." Li Ji sighed and said, "That's it."
Yun Chu arched his hand and said: "The younger generation always thinks that a general who has just killed the enemy and returned to the dynasty should not be too demanding.
Li Ji said with a smile: "The time is not right, if this is the Taizong period, no matter how arrogant Zhao Xiaozu is, in front of us is just a trivial matter of a child crying and asking for sugar, Emperor Taizong will think that he just wants more rewards, it is not worth mentioning, and no one will associate his behavior with other bad things." In fact, there were many arrogant people during that period, among which Cheng Biting Jin and Liang Jianfang were the two people who did the most of this kind of thing. Emperor Taizong's mind is as open as the sky, he can tolerate it, he can also think about it, and he is more confident that these people will not be able to turn the sky. Because, Emperor Taizong himself is the most wise commander in the world.
Now it's different, His Majesty hasn't been on the battlefield for a day, but he has experienced the Hou Junji rebellion. Although that incident was not a big deal in the hearts of Emperor Taizong and the old man, it was just heartache.
However, for the current emperor, it is a disaster, at that time, he had no soldiers and no power, trapped in Chang'anfang City, for fear that his brother would cut him down, and he was in a panic. With that incident, he had a natural fear of war.
Fortunately, although he is afraid, he has the courage to face it, which is very rare.
At this time, those of us who are soldiers should not challenge the dignity of the emperor excessively, try to get close to him, protect him, and try to follow the rules set by the emperor. Otherwise, when the emperor's fear is greater than his courage, you will no longer see Zhao Xiaozu's bloody ass, but his bloody head.
Listening to Li Ji's belly as the emperor talking about Liang Jianfang in his belly, even in the summer, Yun Chu still felt cold and biting, looked left and right, and found that Su Dingfang, who was sitting next to Li Ji, was still eating calmly, and Liang Jianfang on the other side was drinking fiercely.
Li Ji saw Yun Chu's uneasiness, so he smiled and said, "The old man once served as the Taifu of the East Palace, and these words were also said in front of the emperor, so you don't have to worry. However, this cautious disposition of yours is good, and in the future, until the emperor has completely established his self-confidence, he will continue to maintain this cautious manner. It stands to reason that it is not your turn to listen to these words, but the old man has searched for the talents that can be used in the army, and there are as many as 167 people, but unfortunately, there are only three people who can enter the eyes of the old man, and you are the youngest of the three, the youngest, and the most experienced one.
It's not just me, but also Su Dingfang, Zheng Rentai, Liang Jianfang and others After checking all the big and small things in the Western Regions and Chang'an, you are the best among the three people who are most optimistic about us.
Hearing Li Ji's words here, Yun Chu couldn't help but turn his head to look at Pei Xingjian, who was shrinking his head and pretending to be his grandson in the middle of a group of veterans. Li Ji said with a smile: "Pei Xingjian is one, as for who the other is, you will find out for yourself in the future."
As for why these two people who have been carefully selected by us are not as good as you, you will find out later. However, Pei Xingjian is about to take the important position of Chang'an County Commander, and you should help him well.
Yun Chu pointed to his nose in astonishment and said, "I'll help him"
Li Ji looked at Yun Chu happily and said, "Because in a month, if you take the Jinshi examination, you will be selected as the lieutenant of Wannian County." "I'm going to do the math." Yun Chu still wanted to struggle for the last time.
"No, what you are participating in is entering the soil department, the old man has already registered for you in the Ministry of Rites, and at the same time, the Ministry of Officials is also ready, even if you don't write a word in the examination room, you are also this year's new science and technology scholar, amazing, but the ranking is not high.
The examination is for the selection of materials, and the selection of materials can not be determined by just one test paper and a few poems.
You did not evade, did not cowardice, although you were very embarrassed, although you were defeated, you were shot like a hedgehog by the Turks' bows and arrows, even so, knowing that you would die, you still have the courage to kill the enemy on the battlefield, save the remnants of the Huisi Alliance, and inspire the remnants of the Huisi to fight bravely.
That's it, martial arts test! It's over here with the old man. As for the text, hehe"
Li Ji stood up, looked at the lush Jinchangfang, looked at the tall and majestic Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and also looked at the crowded canteen, shook his head slightly and said, "It is a clever person who has only been seen in the old man's life."
A dilapidated Jinchangfang, in three years, has become like this, over the years, the old man has seen many talents, how many amazing officials, and countless heroes who can set the world and act as the eternal pillar of the torrent; The only person who has the ability to govern a dilapidated place into such a rich appearance without a penny from the imperial court is really the only one in his life.
I heard that you have the ambition to govern the entire Chang'an City into the appearance of Jinchangfang, and the old man is hard to calm down when he hears it."
Speaking of this, Li Ji picked up the anti-poison that Liang Jianfang poured for Li Ji, found an empty bowl, and gave half of it to Yun Chu. Yun Chu hurriedly said, "Sun Shenxian"
Li Ji laughed and said: "That old Taoist only saves people all his life, how have you ever seen him harm people, even if you add medicinal herbs to this wine, it must be a good thing that can prolong your life, just drink it."
As he spoke, he stuffed the wine bowl into Yun Chu's hand, touched him heavily, and drank it all, and then, Yun Chu was very familiar, and Li Ji was sluggish. Yun Chu hurriedly drank up the anti-poison in the bowl in one gulp, and in order to take care of Li Ji's face, he stood on the spot with him.
In the summer, pouring three, two, seven, four or five degrees of alcohol in one go, Yun Chu can still stand steadily, but Li Ji's appearance is not very optimistic, first he spit out a mouthful of wine, and then a somewhat dark face turned purple, and then, he grabbed Zheng Rentai beside him, and it could be seen that he wanted to stand firmly.
However, I had to admire the old guy's self-control, and after shaking a few times, he stood firm, shook his head and said to Liang Jianfang, who was smiling strangely: "After all, it was Liang Jianfang who fell into your old murderer's plot Liang Jianfang laughed, and said to Li Ji: "I thought you could be counted as a last resort in your life, hahaha." Today, the people who were killed in this small Jinchangfang turned over on their backs haha. Li Ji ignored the smug Liang Jianfang and asked Yun Chu again: "Can this thing really reduce the symptoms of external injuries and ulcers?" Yun Chu nodded firmly: "Judging from the comparative research of the Tai Medical Department, the effective rate is about sixty percent.
Li Ji didn't know what he remembered, his eyes were a little confused, and he said leisurely: "Sixty percent, sixty percent, sixty percent is enough." After that, he waved his hand at Yun Chu and said, "Today, we fell into Liang Laogou's plot, and we will fight again in the future." Then, with the help of the part, he staggered away, and it seemed that Li Ji's alcohol consumption was not very good. The horse couldn't be ridden, so he arranged the family's carriage to send Li Ji back, and when he returned home, he found that most of the people had already left. Also, not everyone is willing to drink and eat in the house of an eight-rank official, and it is all for the sake of Li Ji's face. Even if they think Yun Chu is amazing, these people who are used to seeing battlefield wars really don't take a battlefield pawn like Yun Chu in their eyes. Come here, that is, to be fresh, and see what kind of person Li Ji is like.
Pei Xingjian accompanied Yun Chu to meet a circle of people again, and this time, more people left. Until there were four or five people left, these people moved to the battlefield and went to the Yun family's inner house. After Yun Chu and Pei Xingjian had a good tea, Liang Jianfang looked at Su Dingfang and said, "Did you say it, or did I say it?" Su Dingfang looked at Yun Chu and said to Pei Xingjian: "I'll tell you, you can't tell clearly.
Liang Jianfang immediately shut up, Su Dingfang took a sip of tea, was a little stunned, and immediately said: "Go all out to run Chang'an!" This is the whole meaning of one of you serving as the commander of Chang'an and the other as the county lieutenant of Wannian.
Pei Xingjian frowned and said, "In this way, has the dust settled when the capital is moved to Luoyang?"
Su Dingfang waved his hand and said, "Where can this kind of thing be decided so easily, however, Your Majesty doesn't like Chang'an, this is already certain, all of our family businesses are basically near Chang'an."
Over the years, there has been less and less land available around Chang'an, while there are more and more people, and Chang'an seems to be prosperous, but in fact it is weak.
The current situation is a scene of flowers and brocade, and after Chang'an's confidence is consumed, the city will fall into the lowest and most sleepy period. Originally, we thought that the city of Chang'an was hopeless, but as a result, from the changes in Jinchangfang and Qujiangli, we had hope again. I hope that Chang'an can be changed through human rule, at least so that Chang'an can continue to operate on its own even after cutting off foreign aid.
"Brother Shen!"
"Hmm!"
Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.
But it doesn't matter who it is.
There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.
on this.
Shen Changqing is used to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.
Arguably.
In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.
The Demon Suppression Division is huge.
The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.
Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.
Have memories of the predecessor.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.
Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.
At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.
Access to the attic.
The environment has changed in vain.
A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.
The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
