Chapter 80: Teacher
"I heard that Bai Qing is going to create an iron knife and prepare it for the Iron Eagle Sharps, but this knife?"
Ying Zheng's eyes fell on Bai Zhong's hand.
For these things, it is impossible for him not to know.
Because the knife was built for Daqin Ruishi, he didn't care much, and when he saw this knife, he mentioned it in passing.
Bai Zhong nodded and said: "It is this knife, the minister got it from Han Wang'an, and he felt that it was suitable for the use of the Iron Eagle Ruishi, and he had not reported it to the king, so he privately found someone to build it, this is the minister's fault, please take a look at it." ”
He handed the knife with both hands.
Ying Zheng took it and looked at it for a while, pulled the knife out of the sheath, only to see that the blade was cold, and exclaimed: "Good knife." ”
As he spoke, he turned the blade and cut down a small tree with a thick bowl mouth next to him.
The trunk of the tree broke in response to the sound, and the fracture was level.
"So sharp!"
Ying Zheng couldn't help but admire, if such a sharp weapon could be used in the Iron Eagle Sharps, the strength would be stronger, and said: "The knife is a good knife, but it is not easy to forge, and it cannot be used in large quantities in the army." ”
Bai Zhong said: "The minister specially brought more than 20 craftsmen back from Xinzheng, and at this time he was in the north of the Tibetan Army Valley Ranch to create this kind of knife, and Wulu also prepared more than 1,000 craftsmen to help, and the minister asked them to have a thousand finished products within a month, which were temporarily used by the Iron Eagle Sharps, and the forging speed rose in the future, and the ministers would propose that the whole army use it." ”
Ying Zheng returned the knife into the sheath, thought for a while and asked, "What benefits does Wulu want to get?" actually helped Bai Qing so hard. ”
"Because the minister gave him the method of making glass, he saw the benefits."
Bai Zhong told all about yesterday's incident, including the free provision of iron ore and the price of war horses.
Ying Zheng didn't get angry at Wu Lu's profit-seeking approach, but smiled and said: "Wu Liu, this person, for the sake of interests, has paid a lot, and now he is a widow, how does Bai Qing think to deal with this person in the future?" ”
Bai Zhong still said to Wang Jian and Zhao Gao yesterday, and said: "It can be used, but it can't be reused." ”
"That's right!"
Ying Zheng felt that Bai Zhong in front of him was getting more and more interested in himself.
Even what you think is in line with your own.
After returning the knife, he said again: "Bai Qing is sure in his heart, then do it casually, the widow supports and trusts you, and this knife will be returned to you." ”
"Thank you for your trust."
"This sharp weapon, the minister gave it to the king."
Bai Zhong didn't take it.
Ying Zheng stuffed it into his hand and said slowly: "Such a sharp weapon, it is more useful in your hands, if it is given to the widow, at most it will be placed in the palace, it is useless, just like the previous glass, you still taught the widow." ”
Bai Zhong said with a smile: "At that time, the minister was afraid of being punished by the king, so he said it casually. ”
"Bai Qing is also honest!"
Ying Zheng laughed, still not angry, but felt Bai Zhong's openness, and suddenly had an idea in his heart, and said: "Fusu!" ”
"Father."
The boy stepped forward.
It turned out that he was Gongzi Fusu.
Ying Zheng said: "In the future, Bai Qing will be Fusu's teacher, can it?" ”
"Father, the child already has a teacher."
Fusu was the first to object.
His teacher, still the great Confucian Chun Yue Yue, continued: "The sage said that one person cannot teach two, one minister cannot serve two kings, and a child cannot agree to this general. ”
"A saint, a saint again."
Ying Zheng suddenly became furious: "The widow shouldn't let Chun Yuyue be your teacher, he only knows how to teach you the so-called sage words, and it is useless." ”
Seeing that his father suddenly became angry, Fusu lowered his head and didn't dare to refute anymore, but he still resisted letting Bai Zhong be his teacher from the bottom of his heart.
Bai Zhong thought of Fusu in history, what he learned was Confucianism, what benevolence and loyalty, the last fake edict made him die, he didn't want to die.
If Fusu doesn't commit suicide and fights back with Meng Tian's 300,000 army, there will be many possibilities for what will happen to Daqin.
Ying Zheng has high hopes for Fusu.
However, Fusu only likes Confucianism, and it just so happens that Yingzheng doesn't like these, and regrets letting Chun Yuyue teach Fusu.
The more hopeful, the more disappointed I felt.
Bai Zhong guessed in his heart that Ying Zheng suddenly made himself Fusu's teacher, probably wanting to change Fusu's character.
"Bai Qing, let's go!"
Ying Zheng reined in his anger.
Fusu didn't dare to argue anymore, and cautiously followed behind Yingzheng, for fear of making his father angry again.
Bai Zhong retracted his thoughts and followed Ying Zheng to a tent.
After a while, Wang Qian's family, Mengwu's family, as well as Tu Sui, Li Si, Wang Juan and others, came to the garden one after another, and first saluted in front of Yingzheng.
Bai Zhong temporarily retreated beside Ying Zheng and went outside to take a look at the environment of the garden.
Since it is a royal garden, the environment is naturally good, the trees are not luxuriant, and they are not sparse, which is convenient for hunting at that time.
Not far away, you can also see some animals such as sheep, deer, and even rabbits walking around.
"Brother White!"
Meng Tian came with a young man, this was not a formal occasion, and he spoke casually, and said with a smile: "My brother Meng Yi." ”
"I've seen General Bai!"
Meng Yi said.
"You're welcome, two Mengs."
Bai Zhong arched his hand in return, thinking that this person was Meng Yi, who would be trusted by Yingzheng in the future, and he was about the same age as himself now.
Next, the hunt begins.
Ying Zheng deliberately called Bai Zhong to the left, and Fusu on the right, and the three of them rode their horses and slowly walked towards the depths of the garden.
Although Fusu is young, he has learned to ride a horse, but he does not dare to run fast.
"General Bai has won the trust of the king."
Wang Jian in the rear saw it and said enviously.
Meng Wu nodded slightly and said, "I have waited so many times to accompany the king to hunt, and this is the first time I have seen that someone can ride a horse with the king and walk side by side." ”
Wang Juan stepped forward and interrupted: "The king has his own considerations, and the two generals should not say much. ”
If he said something wrong, so that Yingzheng heard it and didn't like it, it would still be a big trouble.
The two of them hurriedly changed the subject to something else.
Then Yingzheng ordered that everyone should not be restrained and go to hunt prey casually.
The garden was so large that when they received the order, they quickly scattered to various places.
Ying Zheng still kept Bai Zhong by his side, and he had to test his archery skills with Bai Zhong.
Bai Zhong had to mellow himself and behave far less than Yingzheng.
Not only Bai Zhong is mellow, but Wang Jian is the same, often asking people to watch the results of Ying Zheng's hunting nearby, and finally report back, they deliberately lag behind Ying Zheng, which is their common method.
After half an hour, Yingzheng beat two deer, two sheep, and seven or eight rabbits.
Bai Zhong only beat two deer, a sheep, and nothing else.
Fusu on the right, holding a small bow, although he is still young, he may not be able to hit the prey, but so far he has not fired an arrow, under the influence of benevolence, he even feels unbearable to hunt, especially when he sees Yingzheng and Bai Zhong harvesting so many prey, he doesn't dare to take a second look.
"Bai Qing, you deliberately gave in."
Ying Zheng knows what his strength is, and he also knows what Bai Zhong's ability is.
Bai Zhong deliberately lagged behind, and he could see through it at a glance.
If it were someone else, Ying Zheng would not have brought it up like this, but seeing that Bai Zhong was also deliberately lagging behind, he said so unconsciously.
