Adviser should be self-improvement

Escorted by guards all the way to Pingzhou territory, the horn outside the city has been sounded for a long time, Chu Huaiqing calculated that this war will end soon, it should be just right to go slowly to the state pastoral mansion, but in the end, I still can't restrain my eagerness to move Thinking carefully, he got out of the carriage and rode on the horse, eager to watch the heroic appearance of his lord in battle.

There were only a few guards standing on the city gate, and they were all very excited watching the city wall at this moment. No one noticed Chu Huaiqing's arrival. Hearing the long howl of the Pingzhou army attacking the enemy, Chu Huaiqing immediately felt With an indescribable passion, Teng rose to the edge of the city wall in a few steps, and propped his palms on the nearby stone bricks without any scruples.

The situation on the battlefield changed rapidly, and Qin Ce suddenly became the one who controlled the audience, and when he raised his hand, the rain turned like a cloud.

Knowing that the situation was settled, the Xiangyang Army did not love to fight. Following Gongsun Ji's order to retreat quickly, Qin Ce was not timid, and led the Pingzhou soldiers and horses to pursue the victory. Cut off half their tails!

Seeing the bravery of the Pingzhou army, the Xiangyang army in the back was terrified, and dispersed the orderly large team in front. Gongsun Ji issued mandatory orders several times before they stabilized their generals, showing their distressed state. .

Seeing that the Xiangyang army had already fled to the hills, Qin Ce stopped as soon as he saw it, and summoned General Ning who was rushing to the front, and whispered a few words in his ear.

After listening, General Ning stared at Qin Ce with a disillusioned look, turned around and happily ordered Qin Ce's words.

The Xiangyang army had just climbed up a steep slope, and the Pingzhou army stopped their pursuit, lined up in a neat line, and shouted loudly: "The journey home is long and difficult, and it is easy to return home. Warmly welcome Mr. Gongsun next time." Come again——!"

The generals in Xiangyang reined in their horses while running wildly, and turned around to look back.

"The way back is long and difficult, and it's easy to go back even if it's a feather. I warmly welcome Mr. Gongsun to come again next time—!"

One of them was so angry that his face trembled: "Child Qin Ce!"

Gongsun Ji's hand holding the rein was slightly tight, his intricate eyes were finally replaced by helplessness, he reined in his horse and turned around: "Let's go."

The Xiangyang army receded like a tide, General Ning wiped the blood stains on his face, and said to Qin Ce: "Your Majesty, it doesn't seem very smooth to read these words."

The other general laughed and scolded: "You are a big bastard, you don't know a single big character, don't care if he is smooth or not!"

"Yes, it's fine if the meaning is almost the same. We are not those scholars who like romance, and if we have to rhyme flatly, don't we get angry when we don't see each other?"

"The opposite side is so far away, can you see it?"

"Can't you guess if you can't see me? If I were on the opposite side, I would be so angry that I couldn't speak!"

"Don't talk, don't talk, this time I really had a good fight, and I must have a good drink when I go back!"

"Are you still happy? You kept running forward, and didn't kill many people at all!"

"I was keeping up with His Highness! Besides, how much better are you than me?"

"Speaking of which, just now when I was panting for breath, I saw an extremely strong martial arts master who killed several opponents in a row!"

"Are you talking about the prince?"

"No, the other party seems to be a teenager."

"..."

Cao Yuan put his sword back into its sheath, rode up to Qin Ce, and looked up at Qin Ce expressionlessly.

Qin Ce asked, "How many did you kill?"

The boy said softly, "130 one."

"Are you injured?"

"none."

Qin Ce nodded to him without hesitation in praise: "You did a good job, what reward do you want when you go back?"

The young man said bluntly, "Director."

"Then you still have to work hard for a long time."

"Oh."

"What are you thinking about?"

"Keep trying." Calmly but firmly.

Qin Ce laughed loudly, and raised his voice to announce his return to the city. The soldiers blew the horn for the return journey. Amid the sound of the horn, which was strong and symbolized the return of victory, the Pingzhou Army was talking and laughing, or showing off the "great achievements" just now, or chattering. Looking at the daily life in the future, he returned to Pingzhou in a mighty way.

"Win! Win! The prince and the others repelled the Xiangyang army!"

"The Xiangyang army of the dog day, this can be regarded as a relief, hahaha!"

"My lord and the others are back, I'm going to tell you the good news now!"

Faintly seeing the shadow of the army returning, Chu Huaiqing couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth, seeing the guard running towards this side, he took his hand away, and was about to pat the dust off his palm, but the dark brown stain It was not like pure dirt, which still stubbornly condensed on Chu Huaiqing's skin after three or four slaps.

For a moment, Chu Huaiqing thought it was excrement, the corner of Chu Huaiqing's mouth twitched, but after a closer look, it didn't look like it, and couldn't figure it out, so he took out a handkerchief and wiped it vigorously, most of the black mud was wiped off, revealing A smear of bright red is covered underneath.

Chu Huaiqing, who calmed down from the excited state, stared slightly, and finally smelled a faint smell of blood permeating it belatedly.

And on the stone brick under his hands, there was a palm-sized dark brown mud mark, loose in shape, as if some liquid had been sprayed on it, with a few small drops on the edge.

Unprepared, he was grabbed by someone vigorously, and the guard raised his head in amazement: "What...Mr. Chu, you're back?"

"Where is Commander Xie?"

"Mr. Xie? You were standing here not long ago." The guard scratched his head and looked at the place where Chu Huaiqing found the dark brown sludge. "Why is it missing?"

Chu Huaiqing didn't listen anymore, let go of the guards, and left the city gate without stopping.

If you want to find Xie Qiongjiu, there are three places you can go, the Xie Mansion Tavern and the State Shepherd's Mansion, but Chu Huaiqing didn't hesitate at all, and immediately got on the horse and rushed to the State Shepherd's Mansion.

The horse came to a stop in front of the mansion gate, and Chu Huaiqing turned around and got off the horse without waiting for his body to stabilize, and rushed into the mansion in one fell swoop. It's a gangster who came to provoke him.

In the two months since Chu Huaiqing left, Qin Ce recruited many aides. Due to the problem of retaining guests, the State Shepherd's Mansion was expanded twice, and the originally designed rooms were also changed. Although it would not make Chu Huaiqing dizzy, it was difficult to find for a while. The current location of the main office.

After arresting several servants and asking again and again, they finally reached the door of the main office. There seemed to be other people inside. Chu Huaiqing pushed the door open, and before he stepped in with half a foot, because those people were talking, The content stays on the feet.

"I heard that the prince is back?"

"It just arrived early this morning."

"My lord is back. If it's a few days later, the man named Xie will be lost in Pingzhou!"

"Yes, I don't know what the prince thinks, but let such a person take over Pingzhou."

Chu Huaiqing raised his eyes and looked at the faces of those people. He was not familiar with them, and they should have been recruited recently.

"I heard that Chu Huaiqing, the prince's subordinate, is amazingly talented, but I have never heard of who this Xie Qiongjiu is."

"I did know some things. It is said that Xie Qiongjiu is the second son of the Minister of Rites, and he is still a concubine. He has been dull since he was a child, and he became one of the four big dudes in Beijing when he grew up."

"That guy's real name is not Xie Qiongjiu. He changed his name because his original name was not pleasant. The name was chosen by his parents to express the love of the elder Chunchun. But he changed his name for such a ridiculous reason. , Alas! Such a person who disregards filial piety, how can the prince trust him!"

"My lord mistakenly took the rotten wood as a pillar!"

Chu Huaiqing put his hands on his forehead and inhaled slowly. He usually doesn't get angry easily, but at this moment, he really couldn't help but want to punch up with his fist!

"My lord values ​​this person, is it because this person is a friend Chu Huaiqing met earlier?"

"Chu Huaiqing is an expert anyway, how could he befriend such a short-sighted, cowardly and cowardly person?"

"In order to conceal his talent, Chu Huaiqing once used the image of a dandy as a cover. Maybe it was at that time that we met and developed some friendship."

"Then Xie Qiongjiu is too shameless, it's just the old friendship, two people who are obviously different from each other, but they have to shamelessly come together to ask for an official position, such a villain, really—"

"enough!!"

The door made a loud noise due to excessive force. Chu Huaiqing stepped into the main hall with a livid face, glanced at the stunned people, and said in a very cold voice: "You are so powerful, I am afraid that the prince will not be able to accommodate a few great talents. Please leave immediately!" If not for his rationality, Chu Huaiqing would have shouted the word "Get lost!"

One of them came back to his senses and looked at Chu Huaiqing who suddenly rushed in. He also wrote down a lot of counselors that Qin Ce valued, and when he found that Chu Huaiqing was not one of them, he immediately sneered and said, "You were only arrested in the past few days. Xie Qiongjiu recruited you, right? How dare you talk nonsense to us."

Naturally, the others had never seen Chu Huaiqing before. After being surprised, they became angry, and even more inexplicably complacent. They raised their chins, as if they were the masters of this place: "This is the State Shepherd's Mansion, and we were recruited by the prince himself. Staff, even Xie Qiongjiu didn't dare to say anything more to us, so what kind of thing are you, dare to tell us to leave?"

Chu Huaiqing, who hadn't fought for a long time, really felt itchy.

It was the familiar voice that stopped him, and it also allowed Chu Huaiqing to continue to maintain his usual elegant demeanor: "He is my husband, and in the eyes of this king, they are really nothing." In the last half of the sentence In other words, cold as ice.

Seeing clearly who came, those people suddenly stood up, and said in shock: "My lord, my lord." Looking at Chu Huaiqing, whom Qin Ce called Mr., his lips trembled, "He, could he be—"

"Cao Yuan." Qin Ce was impatient to listen any more, "Do you still remember what I told you?"

The young man next to him gave a low hum, and in the next breath, he had already dodged to the side of those people, easily lifted each hand one by one, and flew out of the window.

He was already familiar with Qin Ce's various tone of voice, as before, at least these people had to be thrown out of Pingzhou.

The closest place seems to be the gate of the city. The blood of those soldiers is still dry. I don’t know if they will be stunned by throwing them into the pile of corpses... Well, I have to go back and throw the remaining two people, just save trouble .

Seeing their colleagues being captured alive, and not knowing whether they would die or not, the remaining two were so frightened that they sat down on the ground, looking at Qin Ce with a gloomy expression in horror.

Including General Ning and others who followed Qin Ce, they finally understood at this moment that Qin Ce is not only a lord who is a virtuous corporal, but also a prince who holds the power of life and death in his hands!

Xie Qiongjiu came out from behind the screen, holding a stack of things in his hands, and looked around casually, but he didn't stop at the two people on the ground from the corner of his eye. The laughter is still there: "Finally are you willing to come back?"

Chu Huaiqing didn't smile, and he couldn't laugh. He let out a deep breath, stepped forward, took the things in Xie Qiongjiu's hand, put them aside, and solemnly looked at Xie Qiongjiu like a junior. He bowed politely: "During the time when Huai Qing was away, Mr. Lao Xie helped the prince wholeheartedly."

Xie Qiongjiu: "...?"

"I just heard from General Ning that it was Mr. Xie who withstood the pressure of the discussion and made a few clever countermeasures to prevent me from falling into the enemy's hands in Pingzhou."

Qin Ce took a step forward, bowed his eyes, and said humbly and politely, "If it weren't for the guidance of the two gentlemen in the past, Qin Ce would not be where he is today. For years, Mr. Xie contributed all his contributions to Qin Ce's plan, and now he has defended Pingzhou in the midst of all dangers—the kindness is beyond words, and Mr. Xie should be respected by the students."

Tens of thousands of turns finally turned to the end in his mind, Xie Qiongjiu said with a smile, "Your Highness Huaiqing doesn't need to be polite, please get up quickly", but his mind was already shocked enough to think numbly, fortunately Chu Huaiqing took the things in his hand, otherwise they would all fall to the ground at this moment.

If Xie Qiongjiu's side felt just shocked, then General Ning and his subordinates, as well as the two people on the ground, were in a state of darkness and darkness.

After a while, Cao Yuan came over to throw the other two people, unexpectedly there was no resistance, the two people in his hands were as if they were dead, except that they were still alive, even a dying fish could flop about, so they were more energetic than them.

General Ning and the others don't know how to get out of the State Shepherd's Mansion, let alone how to get back to their residence. In short, for a certain period of time after this day, the world's experts who are dedicated to exploring their identities have changed from one to two. , on the basis of Mr. Chu, another Mr. Xie was added.

The surname of Chu is Huaiqing, and the surname of Xie is Qiongjiu. Both of them are rare geniuses in a century under the command of the founding emperor Qin Ce. All the clever strategies and ways of governing the world that the two have used will be specially selected by scholars and experts. Selected as a classic to read and praise, and the life experiences of these two people who are often used by later generations to encourage themselves have left one after another well-known passionate legends in the annals of later generations.
