Chapter 13: Fei Ji's Appreciation
As the saying goes, shoot a man first and shoot a horse first, and capture a thief first and capture the king.
Xiao Fan's stick was beaten very hard and suddenly.
The main attack is a sneak attack, which does not emphasize martial virtues, making the one-eyed dragon defenseless.
"Ahh
only heard a miserable scream, no one expected that Xiao Fan would dare to strike first.
When everyone was stunned, Xiao Fan knocked a few more sticks, all aiming at the one-eyed dragon's head.
"Ahh
After three sticks, the knife in the one-eyed dragon's hand had long been taken off, and the whole face could no longer be seen in its original appearance.
Blood and broken front teeth were squirted out and sprinkled on the grass.
"Kill them all!" The bandit, who had come to his senses, shouted fiercely.
"Kill him!" All the bandits swarmed up.
Xiao Fan was no match and grabbed Zhang Zongbao: "Slip away!" โ
"Brother, how dare you?" Zhang Zongbao was also stunned, he didn't expect that Brother Fan, who had become stable recently, would be as impulsive as a reckless cow.
Moreover, he is still fighting the one-eyed dragon, but he has a backstage.
However, the bandits behind came to kill, carrying sticks and swords one by one, Zhang Zongbao did not dare to hesitate, and immediately fled side by side with Xiao Fan.
I have to say that the speed of escaping, the two of them are each other, and no one is left behind.
"Ahh The one-eyed dragon struggled, rolling on the ground, and when he was helped up, he stared in the direction the two men had fled, his whole face contorted with hatred.
"Chase me, kill them, I'm going to feed them to the dogs!" The one-eyed dragon covered its mouth, lost two of its front teeth, and had an indescribable sense of comical air leakage when it spoke.
"Kill!"
Suddenly, the bandits, who were chasing out, heard a burst of neat footsteps and the sound of armor.
In the mountains and forests, a group of dozens of armored soldiers came out, one by one holding bows and arrows, and shot towards the crowd.
"Poofโ"
"It's over, the one-eyed dragon can actually call the army?" Zhang Zongbao was shocked.
Xiao Fan patted him, stopped running, stopped looking back, and said disdainfully:
"This is a royal palace armored guard, a sergeant at the level of the forbidden army, not to mention the one-eyed dragon, no one in the entire Lantai County can call these people."
Zhang Zongbao turned around and saw that the bandits had begun to flee in all directions, and half of them had already been shot.
There are also a few people who are still running after being hit by arrows.
It's a pity that no one can have arrows fast, and under the intensive shooting, all the bandits and hooligans fell to the ground.
Only the one-eyed dragon, who had lost his mobility, was still standing in place, holding a knife, watching this scene in disbelief.
Xiao Fan glanced at this guy indifferently, then turned around and smiled at the soldiers who were gradually approaching.
"Xiao Gongzi is okay, right?" Fei Ji greeted with a smile and carried the bow on his back.
Zhang Zongbao pointed, feeling rude and forgetting it, and said suspiciously: "Brother, this is ...... You called? โ
Xiao Fan didn't respond to Zhang Zongbao's words, and surrendered his hand to Fei Ji:
"Thank you Lord Fei for coming to the rescue, my brothers and sisters should remember this kindness!"
Fei Ji nodded, looking at the young man with some curiosity.
He didn't understand why Xiao Fan only went to the post station once, and after saying a few words, His Royal Highness was actually willing to send his own soldiers to help him.
But Fei Ji knew that this person must have something.
"Young Master Xiao is polite, this is His Royal Highness's order, and the lower officials are just acting according to orders."
Fei Ji returned the salute and did not take credit, this is to say that if you want to remember your kindness, just remember it on Your Highness's head.
"Your Highness?" Zhang Zongbao was even more confused, feeling that his brain was not enough.
He asked Xiao Fan with his eyes, what is Your Highness, why don't I know?
Facing Fei Ji's answer, Xiao Fan said again: "Your Highness's help is naturally remembered below, and Lord Fei's kindness is also remembered below." โ
"Heh," Fei Ji waved his hand, but he had a good impression of this young man in his eyes, "No wonder His Royal Highness favors Gongzi so much, Gongzi is respectful and virtuous, and he is well-versed in the world, and he will definitely do something in the future." โ
Appreciation is real, but if you praise it, Fei Ji should be polite.
Xiao Fan nodded, took out a money bag from his arms, and quietly stuffed it to Fei Ji.
Fei Ji was surprised and embarrassed: "Isn't this okay?" โ
Although it was not good, he didn't push it hard, but only pushed it back gently.
Looking at the familiar money bag, Zhang Zongbao opened his mouth, but wisely chose to shut up.
"The brothers are on a non-official business trip, this trip is hard, this is some tea money."
Xiao Fan said with a smile: "Brothers, don't be too little, you don't have much money to make a living at the beginning, if you meet in the capital in the future, you will definitely have a good life, thank you." โ
These words were said slightly loudly, just enough for a few armored soldiers around him to hear.
"Hey, it was a good trip." Someone whispered.
With the order of King Qi, Xiao Fan didn't dare to complain if he didn't give money, but they didn't expect that there would be travel expenses.
Several armor soldiers nodded, and the resentment of the original trip was also dissipated, and the gaze that looked at Xiao Fan was also a little more kind.
"Xiao Gongzi is polite, hehe......"
"That's it, if Xiao Gongzi comes to the capital, I will invite you to drink!"
"Then I'll rub one?"
"Haha......"
The pro-soldiers of the Qi Palace, all of whom are temperamental, stay together all year round, and are naturally harmonious.
Fei Ji didn't shirk anymore, put away the money bag, and sighed: "Xiao Gongzi smiled, His Royal Highness treats people gently on weekdays, and these subordinates have no rules." โ
"Haha, that's how it should be, it's good to have so many rules and be happy." Xiao Fan said sincerely.
As soon as these words came out, Fei Ji looked at Xiao Fan with more appreciation.
Suddenly, he sighed again: "It's just the capital...... Alas! โ
Speaking of the capital, Fei Ji was still worried, and he didn't know what the outcome would be when he went back on this trip.
Get involved in the storm and turn into blood, or stay out of the matter, or be imprisoned in Beijing forever.
"Why is Lord Fei sighing?"
Xiao Fan said: "I have dismissed His Highness, he is not worried, what else do you have to worry about?" โ
"Oh?"
Fei Ji was greatly surprised, and after thinking about it, he found that after His Royal Highness returned to the post house in the morning, there was indeed not much sadness on his face.
"What did you say to Your Highness?" Fei Ji frowned, and suddenly felt a little worried, whether Xiao Fan would be a lobbyist who wanted to coax His Highness into Beijing.
So, Xiao Fan told Fei Ji word for word what King Qi said.
"Huh?"
When he heard half of it, Fei Ji's eyes lit up, and after listening to it, his face was already cloudy, and the color was clear.
The whole person seemed to be bright.
"Childe's words are indeed reasonable, if so, there will be no danger in this trip!" Fei Ji was very happy.
"Indeed, these words are true, and they are insightful."
The surrounding armor soldiers also heard it, and Xiao Fan was not afraid that they would hear it, these words were originally not dangerous.
It's just an analysis of the current situation.
However, Fei Ji's eyes when he looked at Xiao Fan were no longer pure appreciation.
"Your Highness is right, a talent like Xiao Gongzi should enter Beijing!"
Fei Ji thought carefully and persuaded: "Although the prince of my family has no chance to be unified, he can nominate Gongzi as an official, and he still has connections, so Gongzi can really consider it!" โ
Realizing Xiao Fan's ability, Fei Ji suddenly felt that this was a talent that could be fought for.
Even if it's just to enter the Qi Palace, it's good to be a staff member, but there is a lack of such people around the King of Qi at the moment, who have vision and no second heart.
As the long history of the Qi Palace, Fei Ji said that he was heartbroken for the King of Qi.
But he didn't expect it, but Xiao Fan shook his head: "I'm used to being lazy, I can't be an official, you praise it falsely, I want to be a rich idler in my life." โ
When Zhang Zongbao heard this, he also nodded, he understood what he said.
I'm the same!
"Rich idlers?"
Fei Ji is very old-fashioned: "For a lifetime, just seeking wealth and nobility is a castle in the air after all, and it will be shattered at a touch." The eldest husband was born in heaven and earth, why is it better to follow His Royal Highness into Beijing and achieve a great career!? โ
Undertaking?
Xiao Fan said secretly, if the new emperor is a brain, I will think about this issue again.
But this inner word obviously can't be said, otherwise it's a handle.
"Master Fei praises falsely, I just skimmed a few history books, and my true ability is less than one-tenth of Lord Fei, so I don't need to raise it." Xiao Fan bowed his hand and said modestly.
"It's not a lift!"
Fei Ji scratched his head and said: "This truth is so simple, but none of us can think of it, His Highness is lacking a person like Mr. โ
Zhang Zongbao glared, wondering if he was hallucinating.
What did he say?
Mr?
Where does my brother look like a gentleman?
Master Fei, don't you be so humble and easy? I still prefer the dashing and uninhibited look you had when you first appeared.
Fei Ji's words made Xiao Fan a little embarrassed.
He didn't expect that his words of comforting a child would make these people look up to them so highly.
In his own time, any bachelor who has read history books can see something, and he thinks it's nothing remarkable.
Xiao Fan is too, he really doesn't think he is amazing.
But he is like this, which makes Fei Ji feel that he is a rare talent.
Humble and courteous, neither humble nor arrogant, and not seeking wealth and wealth...... Oh my God, where to find such talents, don't you hurry up and tie them up?
