Chapter 31: Rise to Fame
"Ahem, cough," Li Xun came out of the dust, looking disgraced, he stared at Liu Su in the distance, and shouted, "Guard, guard, quickly capture these assassins!"
When the sergeant heard the order of the little marquis, he rushed towards the three of them. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Stop!"
A voice rang out in all directions, and all the sergeants stood still. I saw the king of Chu slowly come forward, looked at the three people, and finally looked at Liu Su, who was carrying the sword, and praised: "Chivalry, you can shoot the cannonball back, this courage and calmness, the king of the true sect is an eye-opener." ”
Liu Su wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with a smile: "I passed the prize, I almost hurt the prince before, I'm really sorry." ”
Li Xun pointed at Liu Su and scolded: "You pariah, the key hurt me and my father a hair, and you will definitely die a good death!"
The bearing of the king of Chu is not comparable to this gentleman's son, he pressed Li Xun's hand down, and said warmly: "The dog is speechless, it is this king who has no way to discipline him, and the three of you forgive me." ”
The king of Chu invited the three of them to have a luncheon with him. During the banquet, he was very interested, praised the three of them again and again, and personally toasted the three of them. Li Xun was eating alone, putting on a face that he didn't know.
"Three, this king has something to say, just say it. The King of Chu put down the wine glass and continued, "I wonder if anyone wants to enter my Chu Palace, enter the official career, and show off his ambitions?"
The three of them looked at each other. Zhuo Yifan didn't look interested, and Liu Chengxu arched his hand.
Liu Su smiled, he deeply understood that this matter was an excellent opportunity for him, so he asked: "Lord Wang, if you enter the palace of the king of Chu, will you start as an ordinary guard?"
Li Xun blurted out: "Of course!"
The king of Chu stopped him and said, "With your courage, you can be appointed as the deputy governor." ”
Liu Su's expression lit up, and he said happily: "Then I agreed!"
"Good. King Chu nodded lightly, "After a while, this king will arrange duties for you." ”
After eating, the two servants presented the sword book and the war book.
Liu Su picked up the Nine Dragons Sword Book and looked at the two of them: "The Sword Book is mine, who of you wants the military book?"
Liu Chengxu shook his head.
Zhuo Yifan said coldly: "You have entered the official career, you should keep this military book, and you can use it to lead the army to fight in the future." ”
Liu Suhaha smiled and said: "Then I will be respectful, thank you two for your help this time, I will definitely repay it in the future." ”
Zhuo Yifan looked cold and left alone.
Liu Chengxu smiled and said, "We are all our own people, don't mention thank you or not." ”
In this way, Liu Su, as the first person to break the Sancai Formation in thirty years, not only obtained the sword book and the book of war, but also successfully entered the palace of the King of Chu and became a deputy governor.
The predecessor of the king of Chu was a general who protected the country, fought for many years, worked hard, and was a well-known figure in the court. It's just that in recent years, he has become old, and the emperor named him the king of Chu, so that he can return home and enjoy his old age in peace.
Even so, the king of Chu still mastered some military power, and there were a total of 20,000 soldiers in the palace of the king of Chu, all of whom were brave and good at fighting, and only obeyed the orders of the king of Chu.
20,000 sergeants, under the command of one general, and three generals, and the generals are the commanders. There were twenty governors in total, and there were a thousand sergeants under each of them, and one person was too busy to do so, so he had to recruit deputy governors to assist in the management.
Liu Su served as the deputy chief for a few days, and every day he had to supervise the sergeants to practice, inspect, maintain law and order, etc., almost from morning to night, and had no free time at all.
"It seems that this is not a good time, in the Taiping World, I can't kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, if I want to be promoted, how long will I have to stay up?"
So, he asked the king of Chu for a long vacation, and he didn't say the specific time limit. The king of Chu didn't ask, but only said to him: "I will temporarily find someone else to replace your position, and when you want to come back, come directly to this king." ”
The King of Chu can say this, and he can be said to be very caring for Liu Su.
In this way, Liu Su is equivalent to taking an indefinite long vacation, and his position as deputy director will not be lost.
Liu Su packed up his softness, left the Chu Palace, and returned to the state capital to leave.
At this time, he was already well-known in Xiling City, and he also had the title of deputy head of the Chu Palace, and the two guards were so polite to him that they couldn't be more polite.
When Liu Taishou heard that Liu Su was back, he dragged his body infected with wind and cold, and came to greet him in person with the support of his wife, and his old face smiled extremely brightly, and said: "Liu Gongzi, I am old, I looked away last time, don't mind." ”
Liu Su walked into the mansion in high spirits and said, "Lord Taishou, you are too polite!"
At this time, a trace of astonishment flashed in Liu Taishou's eyes, and he asked: "Liu Gongzi, I heard that the precepts and regulations of the Chu Palace's mansion have always been strict, and you are the head of the palace, how can you have time to come back?"
Liu Su arched his hand and said, "I won't do it for the time being." ”
In an instant, the smile on Yoo Taeshou's face was no longer visible, and his tone became cold. Originally, when Liu Taishou heard that Liu Su was the head of the palace, he must have been deeply appreciated by the King of Chu, and his future was definitely limitless!
But who would have thought that Liu Su would abandon this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Liu Taishou immediately said, "Madam, help me go back to rest." ”
Madame smiled and said very gently: "Su'er, you stay and entertain the guests well." ”
After speaking, Mrs. Liu Taishou helped her and staggered away.
Liu Chengxu grabbed his hair and said in a low voice: "My father is an official... These people are like that. ”
Liu Su nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't mind." ”
Liu Chengxu put his arm on Liu Su's shoulders and said mysteriously: "Now that you have obtained the knife book, is it time to prepare for marrying my sister? It's May now!"
Liu Suwaner smiled: "Don't worry, I can't forget." As he was talking, Liu Su calculated the date, "It should be OK today." ”
Liu Chengxu: "Huh, what did you say?"
"Hmm..."Liu Su groaned and did not speak.
Just when Liu Chengxu couldn't understand it, there was a sudden knock outside the gate behind him. A servant went to open the door, only to see a middle-aged man with extraordinary spirit standing outside the door.
Behind the middle-aged man, there was a carriage with eight large, beautifully packed boxes on it.
The middle-aged man recognized Liu Su who was standing with Liu Chengxu at a glance, he bowed slightly, and said, "Liu Gongzi, this is a lot of gifts prepared by the owner himself, you can take inventory." ”
Liu Su stepped forward and said with a smile: "Steward Gongsun, it's really troublesome for you." ”
"Don't bother," Gongsun Butler waved his hand, and the two coolies behind him carried the boxes off the carriage and stacked them in the mansion. "Then I'll take my leave. ”
Liu Su said: "It's not easy for Steward Gongsun to go all the way, so it's better to have lunch and then leave." ”
Steward Gongsun nodded and said, "It's okay." ”
