On the Importance of Finishing Work

Qin Ming?

Hearing the familiar name, Shi Yue couldn't help but look up.

Seeing that he was curious, Zhao Xiushi quickly handed over the bamboo slip, "Brother Xu, do you want to see it?"

Shi Yue didn't refuse, and after apologizing, he raised his hand and took it.

Shi Yue looked at the bamboo slip, while Zhao Xiushi carefully observed Shi Yue's expression, hoping to see something from it.

——After a while, it's time for Big Brother Xu to test him.

Zhao Xiushi didn't see anything from Shi Yue's expressionless face, but his guess was correct, Shi Yue glanced around a few times, then looked up at Zhao Xiushi, "What do you think?"

Zhao Xiushi didn't see any bias from Shi Yue's face, so Zhao Xiushi could only bite the bullet and talk about his own analysis, "The Xizhou iron cavalry under General Qin's command has been fighting against the Hulu all year round, and their combat power is extraordinary, far beyond what the imperial army might compare to. , I think... this battle... this battle..."

Just as Zhao Xiushi wanted to say "the result is obvious", he frowned slightly when he saw it, and immediately stopped speaking, and began to rack his brains to think why Qin Ming lost.

After much deliberation, he finally found a plausible reason, and when he spoke again, he changed the topic, "Although General Qin is brave, but this time the 'Hou Lin Alliance' of 'crushing against the rebels' is a mixed bag, just like that Qinzhou Xiangran, my father once said that this person has a bad mind and can hardly achieve great things... The rest of the people are no more than mediocre."

"Brother Xu, you once said that if you want to form an alliance, the most important thing is to avoid discord, otherwise the alliance will easily collapse if the individual uses their own strength."

The brows that were furrowed more and more when he saw it were relaxed, and Zhao Xiushi heaved a sigh of relief. He felt that he had hit the point this time.

Just when he was secretly happy, but when he heard it, he said: "You are right or wrong."

Zhao Xiushi looked over in doubt, and Shi Yue asked him, "Since the imperial army is not the opponent of Xizhou iron cavalry, why does Qin Ming insist on making this alliance?"

Zhao Xiushi was stunned, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

"Uh...well...maybe...attacking Kang Jing is a big deal after all, there are many people...it's safer..."

He stuttered and said this very awkwardly, and after he finished speaking, he found that he contradicted himself with his previous statement, and pulled his hair with difficulty.

Before he pulled himself bald, Shi Yue said, "This news is not true."

Zhao Xiushi opened his eyes wide and repeated in a murmur, "It's not true?"

He obviously didn't think about this possibility. Although he learned a lot how to make judgments based on the information in his hands during this time, it was all on the premise that the information was true.

It was a coincidence that I taught him such a lesson today.

To judge whether the news is true or false, there are many ways to talk about it for days and nights.But for Shi Yue, making this judgment couldn't be easier.

——Because he was too familiar with Qin Ming.

If that child planned to do something, he would definitely not make such a big fuss like he is now.

Wait for the opportunity, one hit kills.

He seemed to be a natural hunter, and even Shi Yue couldn't help but be moved by his talent in certain aspects.

And it's winter now, even if Qin Ming did it, he would definitely not choose to do it in autumn and winter.

Hulu went south, according to the child's sense of responsibility, he would never leave the border at this time of year.

North, Sizhou.

If the coldness in Guangping is tolerable, then the roads in Sizhou are really blocked by heavy snow, and it is not uncommon for people to freeze to death.

"General, do you really ignore the news from Quzhou?"

Zhou Jie also received news that a group of mobs in Quzhou actually recruited troops under the banner of Qin Ming and wanted to attack Kang Jing.

Qin Ming only sharpened the blade in his hand with a cold face, without saying a word.

Seeing his expression, Zhou Jie felt sweat dripping from the back of his head, and when he saw Qin Ming raise the blade to gesture, he felt a chill on his neck.

"I said... General Qin, if you really don't like the person on the throne, you can just pull the flag and turn it against you!"

"...The military rations in the court have not arrived for many years. Whose rations are the brothers eating, and for whom are they selling their lives? The big guys all know it, and they have all reached this point... What are you holding back?! "

Qin Ming gestured with the knife for a long time, and just behind Zhou Jie who thought he was going to be so silent, he suddenly spoke in a hoarse voice, "He taught me 'loyalty to the king and the country, guarding the land and borders'. Before coming to Sizhou...he said...let me guard the frontier for Dazhao, let me protect the people from the invasion of the Hulu...let the border no longer have a woman who was defiled by the Hulu like my mother...let me... ..."

When Zhou Jie heard him say the words at the beginning, his expression was not right, and when he continued to say each sentence, Zhou Jie's expression became more and more cold.

"Ha!" He laughed shortly, and cut off Qin Ming's words loudly, "Then what about the person who taught you?! How is the person who taught you now?!"

Qin Ming's chest rose and fell, but he only held the knife tightly in his hand, without saying a word.

But Zhou Jie didn't let him go, and asked one after another, "Passed away from the epidemic suddenly? Do you believe this?! I believe it?!"

"Everyone in Kangjing is safe and sound, but only that one? Only the Duke's Mansion?! Why is this disease so blind, why doesn't it fall into the palace?!"

Qin Ming's hands were shaking, "Shut up!!"

Zhou Jie sneered, "Shut up?! It's because there are too many people who shut up in this world, so...so that one died of illness, so the culprit is still sitting safely on the throne!"

Qin Ming threw down the knife in his hand, grabbed Zhou Jie's neck, and threw him against the wall. His eyes were bloodshot, and his voice was cold, "What do you know?!"

Zhou Jie was not afraid of him, and his tone was still mocking, "What do I know?! I know blood, debt, blood, repayment!!"

"That was the painstaking effort of my adoptive father!" Qin Ming couldn't help tightening his hands, "He knew, he knew... knew that there would be such a day, so... he broke with me and transferred me to the border! Let me guard Let's guard the country of Dazhao for him!!"

He knew who the enemy was, but he could only watch, watch that person mourning hypocritically, say some beautiful scene words, put on a big show in front of the world, and then...then continue to sit comfortably in that noble On the dragon chair.

Does he hate it? !He's going to hate it like crazy! !

He just wished he could cut off the head of the person on the throne with a knife and put it in front of his spiritual throne.

But he can't...

He knew that with the ability of his adoptive father, the little emperor would not be able to touch him no matter what, but his adoptive father died in the end, and died quietly...

It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this! !

——But the fact happens to be like this!

The collapse was extremely calm, and the clues in the memory suddenly became clearly visible.

——The adoptive father knew a long time ago... that the little emperor couldn't tolerate him.

He arranged a retreat for everyone... Then, he resolutely rushed to that ending.

Qin Ming hated it very much, he hated that ruthless and ungrateful little emperor.

——Who was it back then, risking the death penalty, snatching him, who was still a prince, from the cold palace!Who is it that clears all obstacles for him and helps him ascend to the position? !And who saved this dilapidated country for him? ! !

But in the end, such a result was obtained! !

But he hated himself even more, obviously, clearly aware of what was wrong, why...why didn't he think about it? !

Why did he watch his adoptive father fall into such an ending? !

He wanted revenge, but he clearly understood why his adoptive father died——

He wants the mountains and rivers to be stable and the people to go well... For this reason, he would rather die quietly.

It is easy to kill the wolf-hearted emperor, but... if the country falls into chaos, what is the meaning of the death of the foster father? !

Destroying the whole life of foster father with his own hands, destroying the stable and prosperous world that foster father would rather die to protect... Qin Ming couldn't do it.

But asking him to work for that dog emperor is even more unthinkable! !

Therefore, he just watched coldly, watching the dog emperor step by step towards destruction.

——The law of heaven is clear, and the retribution is not good.

He will watch it with his own eyes until the day he sees the dog emperor go down to atone for his foster father!

Zhou Jie was so pinched that he rolled his eyes, desperately grabbing the hand that Qin Ming was pinching his neck.

Qin Ming finally had a sense of reason, and let go before strangling his subordinate to death.

Zhou Jie knew that when he was mentioned, this usually calm and composed boss, who never changed his face before a landslide, would go crazy. He had expected the way he was being treated now.

Moreover, he came here today with the intention of irritating people. After a heart-piercing cough, he said again without fear of death, "Blood? I don't know that person as well as you do...but... Cough... His painstaking efforts... Is it the emperor on the throne... or is this country stable and peaceful..."

...of course the latter.

"Open your eyes and take a good look!!" Zhou Jie couldn't help coughing again when his voice was louder, but in the second half of the sentence, he suppressed the cough again, "No more!! After all these years , His hard work has been destroyed long ago! It was completely destroyed!!! There is not a single trace left!"

"Can't you see the current situation clearly? As long as the dog emperor has the slightest bit of ability, the world will not be in chaos like this! Don't you still expect this Dazhao to produce a second An Guogong?!"

"No..." Qin Ming took a deep breath and said, "No... there won't be."

——There is no second person in this world who is as amazing and talented as the foster father.

"The dog emperor will be finished sooner or later." Zhou Jie said with certainty, then he raised his eyes to Qin Ming again, "Then... you still want to bet? Bet that the next person to sit in that position is not a fool ?”

"Are you going to watch like this?!...Do nothing and keep watching like this?!"

Qin Ming stopped breathing and remained silent for a long time.

Zhou Jie took a deep look at him, only said "Think about it carefully", and then left without looking back.
