"His Highness naturally thinks highly of them when he chooses them."
"Every general will obey!"
A general named Zhang stood cautiously in front of Zhou Zheng, nodding and bowing, for fear that if he said something wrong, Zhou Zheng would be offended.
After all, just now, Zhou Zheng's domineering and tough tactics were still fresh in his mind.
In Fancheng, let alone a mere general, even the prefect Chen Mian did not dare to disobey him in the slightest.
"What's your name?"
"Your Highness, my surname is Qin. My parents died early. Everyone calls me Qin Gou'er."
The soldier who was suddenly called upon by Zhou Zheng was a little excited and even nervous. He stood upright, not daring to show any slightness, and responded quickly.
"What are your two names?"
"Go back to your highness, slave Monday."
"Your Highness, my servant Meng Hui."
The faces of the people named by Zhou Zheng turned red at this time. Although they were soldiers of Fancheng, they were the lowest-level soldiers. Even the armor on their bodies was not complete, which showed that they were of low status.
On weekdays, except for being at the front in life-and-death battles, all the credit goes to them.
Even the possibility of meeting the dignitaries in Fan City is extremely slim. Even if the general appears today, it is a rare sight for them once a year, let alone the presence of the current prince in person.
Even though their clothes were in tatters and they even had a unique odor, they still looked their best.
"Just you three."
Zhou Zheng kept looking at these three people and finally nodded.
And these words made Qin Gouer, Yi Yiyi and Meng Hui tremble uncontrollably.
"You three, are you willing to follow me?"
Zhou Zheng's expression didn't change much, but to Qin Gouer and the others, these words were like a favor from heaven.
"The slave is willing!"
Qin Gouer, who reacted the fastest, knelt down to Zhou Zheng on the spot, and so did Yi Yiyi and Meng Hui!
They didn't know why Zhou Zheng would choose them, but the three of them didn't hesitate at all about being chosen by Zhou Zheng!
"If you don't ask, why are you following me?"
Looking at the reactions of the three people, Zhou Zheng asked thoughtfully.
"Follow His Highness, there will be mountains of swords and seas of fire, and the slaves will be fearless in life and death."
Qin Ergou was also the first to answer, which made Zhou Zheng quite satisfied.
"I don't like to impose things on others."
"Following me may not necessarily lead to a meteoric rise, but it may also lead to a deep end without a burial."
"So I will give you an hour to think about it."
"If you are unwilling to follow me and continue to stay in Fancheng, I will reward you with some silver."
"If you are willing to follow me, pick five people each in Fancheng and go to the gate of the prefect's mansion in an hour to wait for me."
After leaving these words, Zhou Zheng turned and left.
Qin Gou'er and the other three people who were kneeling on the ground dared to raise their heads only when Zhou Zheng's figure disappeared.
"Prince, why did you choose us?"
Meng Hui forced to suppress his inner excitement, but an uneasy feeling filled his heart.
What kind of identity is the prince? He is a figure in the clouds that they will never be able to touch in their entire life.
But he chose the military camp with the least identity background in Fancheng and named the three of them there.
After being excited at the beginning, as Zhou Zheng left, Meng Hui, who had calmed down, felt a little more panic deep in his heart.
In Fancheng, although they are the lowest and most humble soldiers and generals, and their salaries are pitiful, at least they can survive if their luck is not very bad.
"His Highness said that as long as you stay, you can get a sum of money."
Monday also gritted his teeth, his face full of hesitation.
They had seen the generals select some good players here, and they thought they would be promoted and make a fortune, but in the end they ended up being made scapegoats and died without a burial place.
"I, Qin Gou'er, have nothing to lose, and I will die anyway."
"If it's really a dead end, I, Qin Gou'er, won't be afraid!"
"After all, dying in the hands of the prince is considered an honor!"
Qin Gou'er stood up and clenched his fist slightly. His voice was trembling, but his eyes were extremely firm.
He has had enough of living at the bottom of Fancheng for these years!
He wants to change his life and live without any regrets!
After leaving these words, Qin Gouer took the lead to leave.
"what do you think?"
Zhou Yiyi's eyes fell on Meng Hui and he asked softly.
At this time, other people in the military camp also gathered around. Everyone had different opinions and became noisy for a while.
......
"Master Chen, which song is the prince singing?"
Outside the lobby of the Prefect's Mansion, many officials and soldiers looked suspicious.
"Hmph, it's okay."
Chen Mian had just secretly sent a letter to the second prince about all the flying pigeons in Fan City. As for why Zhou Zheng went alone to the worst military camp in Fancheng to select soldiers, Chen Mian didn't care at all.
Those are just pawns with no power or background.
They may be useful as human shields when charging into battle, but at other times, their existence has almost no meaning.
Let alone three or five, what if all the hundreds of soldiers at the bottom were given to Zhou Zheng?
"What choices did those three people make?"
However, Chen Mian was a cautious person and still asked.
"Except for one soldier named Gou'er, the other two soldiers chose to stay."
The general did not dare to neglect and responded softly.
"It's okay."
"Give some silver to the two soldiers who are left behind."
"As for the dog following His Highness, kill him after His Highness leaves Fancheng."
Chen Mian downplayed it, as if he was not killing a person, but an animal.
Afterwards, everyone was speechless and waited quietly outside the lobby.
......
"Your Highness, the court will soon know about what is happening here."
In the lobby, Zhou Zheng was sitting at the top, while Gong Tan was standing sideways.
There were only two people in the huge lobby, which seemed a bit empty.
"Just do what you have to do."
Zhou Zheng slowly put down the tea cup in his hand. He knew very well that no matter what the relationship between Gong Tan and him was now, he was still a member of the Imperial City Department, and it was his duty to report Zhou Zheng's journey along the way.
Zhou Zheng would be really worried if he didn't report it.
After all, what we want is the Mission: Impossible effect.
Her pretty brows furrowed slightly, and Gong Tan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Zhou Zheng was not dissatisfied because he had sent a message to the court.
It's just that Gong Tan herself didn't notice that since Zhou Zheng's disdain for the people, her mood and views towards Zhou Zheng had undergone a huge change in a subtle way.
"Does Your Highness think the three of them will really come?"
Regarding the fact that Zhou Zheng had to go to the military camp alone to select three or five people just now, not to mention Chen Mian and others in Fancheng were confused, even Gong Tan couldn't understand it.
"Whether they come or not is their own business."
"What I don't like the most is forcing others to make things difficult for them."
Zhou Zheng answered slowly, but when he heard this, Gong Tan rolled his eyes.
During this period of time, Zhou Zheng ate a lot of her food in the carriage.
Even though Gong Tan was extremely reluctant, what Zhou Zheng liked most at that time was forcing others to do things.
"But I can make a bet with you."
"Do you think they will come?"
"will not!"
Gong Tan blurted out without thinking.
This is Fancheng, Chen Mian's territory. Judging from the conflict between Zhou Zheng, Chen Mian and others just now, who dares to stand up to the crown prince?
After all, the prince would not condescend to kill an unknown soldier, but if he offended Chen Mian and others, the consequences would be worse than life or death!
Which one is more important and which one is less important, everyone knows.
"Then I'll bet that someone will come!"
"But since it's a bet, you need some bonus."
After saying this, Zhou Zheng's pupils turned, and then he cast an evil smile on Gong Tan.
"If someone comes, let me give you a kiss."
really!
Hearing this, Gong Tan's face turned red, he was really not a good person.
"Then you lost?"
"I won't touch you again this whole time!"
