Chapter 724: The Successor
Just as Gao Changgong was pondering, he suddenly heard a young voice beside him say calmly: "The general is worried about the safety of Jianye City, right? β
Of course, Gao Changgong remembered this voice, in fact, he had taken this young man with him almost every day these days, teaching him the affairs of the army, teaching him the rules of marching, and teaching him ...... How to be a good commander.
"Besides, we won't be gone for long, if it goes well, we will definitely be able to put down Sun Tong's rebellion within two months, and even use this as a name to firmly nail a nail for the prime minister in the old land of the Sun family. So this rebellion, while dangerous, is not all bad. Zhang Mingqi sat on horseback, clearly saying his thoughts, and his appearance was neither humble nor arrogant, and he faintly had a bit of a general's style.
Many people feel that Gao Changgong has two choices for the successor, one of which is naturally Sun Qing, who was born in the Sun family and is talented and chases him directly, but Sun Qing is helpless and is destined to be enemies with Zhuge Wanling, so there is a barrier between them that is always difficult to cross.
And the other person is Abu, as a poor student of the Taixue Hall, although he is still very young, Abu's qi and blood cultivation and military planning skills are almost all taught by him, so he is naturally the best choice.
But Gao Changgong felt that maybe he had a third choice.
"I didn't see it before, you still have some temple planning skills, it seems that it is a bit condescending to let you be my personal guard. Gao Changgong didn't turn his head, but looked ahead while the corners of his mouth curved a slight arc.
He was originally a beautiful god of war who was full of Jing Wu, and now he unabashedly revealed one of his faces, and this smile fascinated countless girls who worshiped him, and some even rolled their eyes on the street and fainted.
The personal maid hugged her young lady in a panic, and she didn't dare to slap her cheeks hard, so she could only keep calling.
Gao Changgong didn't care about that, and teased Zhang Mingqi: "I heard that once some people get married, they will become stable and wise, and even a little overly cautious, does that little girl really have such a great ability to transform you into this?"
Zhang Mingqi's eyes were stunned, and then his cheeks flushed a little red: "General, this has nothing to do with military affairs." β
"The marriage of your subordinates is related to whether you can do things wholeheartedly in the future, how can it be irrelevant?" Looking at the head that was getting lower and lower, Gao Chang couldn't help but shake his head, and said helplessly, "Forget it, I won't tease you, a little man who has just married and is still immersed in the gentle township, while showing shame on his face, and full of sweetness in his heart, it is really not interesting." β
Speaking of this, he suddenly smiled and said: "This time I took you on the expedition, so that you can't accompany your new lady more, count it my fault, and send some things to your family when I come back, speaking of which, you are the only one in your Zhang family, and you should have a child earlier, and pass on the incense of your Zhang family." β
Zhang Mingqi touched the mane of the somewhat restless war horse, and grinned: "No need, the general cultivated me, I know, such a thing is the time to hone me." β
It's just that he didn't get an answer, because Gao Changgong's eyes were blank at the moment, as if he was thinking about something, so he frowned and asked carefully: "General...... What's wrong with you?"
Gao Changgong, who was distracted, was suddenly awakened, immediately looked at Zhang Mingqi, and then lowered his head again, hiding a smile: "It's nothing." It's just a little emotional. β
Gao Changgong half-closed his eyes, it seemed that this had happened more than once recently, and it seemed that as long as he got closer to the saint realm, the more he felt that something was gradually changing, although he was very reluctant to admit it.
Luo Fengyan told him that becoming a saint means gradually detaching himself from a "person" and becoming an existence that even he can't understand.
Will he become like that?
No one can answer this question, because there have always been very few saints in this world, and naturally there are not many people who have come to answer his doubts, maybe the old man who rode the bull that injured him at the beginning can, according to Qin Ke's description, the old man has now settled in Funiu Mountain?
Maybe when this side is over, he can come and visit in person.
Gao Changgong made a decision, then looked at the city cave that was getting closer and closer in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "The army is out of the city!
"Look at it, is there a match?" Zhou Gongjin's voice was particularly profound.
This is the third group of spies called by the school government, although these spies are a little confused why they were suddenly called here, and they are scrutinized up and down by the newly appointed right Langzhong like a thief.
But an order is an order, and the school office has always been a place of rules, so they could not express any dissatisfaction, so they could only stand silent, standing in a row of green pines, their straight waists extending upward, like an upright spear.
However, Qin Ke shook his head after all.
The people in front of him were indeed left-handed, but their qi and blood were not yet at the realm of a little grandmaster, and the highest cultivator surprised him that he was a civilian official who nested in the school office every day, and his abdomen showed some fortune because of this.
Such a figure is definitely not a left-handed knife master who has sharp sword skills that day, and even broke his own stunned sword in an instant.
As for the archers, the school government is even more clueless, although the school office does hide a lot of secret agents with good archery skills, but even the strongest little grandmaster master, there is still no evidence to prove that he is the person who appeared that day.
However, Zhou Gongjin still decided to put these people in custody for the time being, and served them with good food and drink.
Just give them some time to rest, anyway, there is no shortage of such a few people in the school government if they really want to do things, if there are ghosts among them, the harm of letting them out is much greater than locking them up.
At present, the most regrettable thing is that the clues in the file are still not enough to grasp the internal problems of the school office, and it is obvious that the loss of the bamboo slip has made the investigation of this matter difficult.
"In this way, those two may not be the secret agents of the school government. Zhou Gongjin looked at the figure of the secret agent who was ordered to leave, but felt that this matter was not so bad, at least an enemy hidden outside was better to deal with than an enemy hidden inside.
Having said that, Zhou Gongjin actually made a lot of preparations.
The files in the tiger room had all been handed over to Zuo Langzhong Shendao to look through, and at the same time, the secret agents of the school office were also scattered like a handful of beans by him, scattered all over the city, closely monitoring the officials who might have problems.
As the school governor, his most important task is to ensure the stability of Jianye.
As long as this period of time passes, Gao Changgong's army returns to the city, carrying the power of killing Sun Tong just now, I am afraid that no matter how crazy those people are, they will have to weigh it.
Qin Ke also knew that Zhou Gongjin was responsible for guarding Jianye, so naturally he would not accuse him of not spending all his resources on tracking down the whereabouts of the tiger like the naΓ―ve boy at the beginning.
So he nodded slightly, bowed and retreated, ready to go to the case to check the clues in person.
"What an interesting kid. β
Although Qin Ke didn't speak, Zhou Gongjin, as the school official, could naturally see what Qin Ke was thinking, and couldn't help but smile playfully.
Although Qin Ke has become an adult, in the eyes of Zhou Gongjin and others, he is still a child, a child with righteousness and kindness, who never forgets the whereabouts of the tiger, and stubbornly wants to find out the life and death of the tiger with his own strength, and even save the tiger's life.
It's silly, but it's cute, isn't it?
Zhou Gongjin has never hated such people, and even felt that if he was not in a critical position, he would rather be kind and cute like Qin Ke, then on the day he closed his eyes in the future, he might be able to be more upright.
It's just that he lowered his head and looked at the resignation letter that Qin Ke handed over today, but he frowned, and didn't understand why Qin Ke said that when the tiger matter was over, he would resign and leave, could it be that there was something unpleasant in Jingwu?
"What's interesting?" Just as Zhou Gongjin was thinking, a delicate female voice came to his ears.
Zhou Gongjin turned his head and saw the pale pink skirt swaying gently with the pace, Qiao Feifan was standing in front of him so prettyly, his face was a little ruddy, and the silver earlobes on the pink earlobes reflected the sunlight outside the window.
He stayed for too long, so that Qiao Feifan was a little embarrassed, lowered his head to look at his clothes, sorted out the folds again, and said with a little embarrassment: "I haven't worn such clothes seriously for some days, isn't it inappropriate?"
After all, she is a doctor, and on weekdays, she smokes and burns when she decocts medicine, and climbs on the mountains to collect medicine, and a women's dress like this can only be worn by those girls who love beauty every day.
But women love beauty, even if it is Qiao Feifan, where can be an exception? Today, she has been dressed up in the room for a long time, picking and choosing those ornaments, and only then did she find a satisfactory one, and she just ran out, and she couldn't wait for people to see it.
"I didn't ...... It fits well and fits perfectly. Zhou Gongjin realized his gaffe, and immediately covered up his saliva that was about to overflow, and then came to Qiao Feifan's side.
Amid the sounds of slapstick and whispering, the figures of the two quickly coincided on the window screen.
Sometimes, the germination of feelings is like a seedling in this spring, when it is born in a suitable soil and carefully cultivated by someone with a heart, it always grows very quickly.
