What about Mr. Faint?

When I got up alone, the surrounding tents were already empty.The days when no one was serving me were not as sad as I imagined, but it was closer to the way I was in the small yard back then, tidying up by myself and keeping me company.But this time, as long as he wants to, he can put on his coat and go to the school grounds.

That was the place where they practiced martial arts, and their passionate voices, the sound of guns colliding, and sometimes excited cheers could be heard from a long distance away.These people seem to have inexhaustible strength, they work every day at sunrise, and they don't rest at sunset, they are completely different from those in the palace.

The general never restricted Gu's movements, he just let Gu take it in this tent.In fact, Gu can feel that there are people staring at him, but compared to his big brother and the others, these people are more hidden.At least when the big brother and the others followed Gu, Gu could always find the place where they were hiding if he wanted to.

Or maybe it was just because he wanted to see him alone.

Back then, when the general dragged Gu and stood in the front palace to question Gu, there were dozens if not hundreds of people around who saw Gu.Most of them are the general's capable subordinates and confidantes, Gu does not believe that they have forgotten Gu's appearance.After all, the appearance that can be placed in the heart is nothing but love and hate.

I don't know how the general explained it to his subordinates. These people not only allowed the general to rescue Gu, but also ate and dressed Gu to heal his wounds.When Gu was able to walk on the ground, when he saw Gu, a fatuous former emperor, in the camp, he only treated him indifferently.There is no indignation and injustice as Gu imagined, no quarrels and insults, let alone let Gu pay for his life.

On the day when Gu Zai understood his situation, he was ready for them to make a noise and make Gu pay for his life.But their handling like this made Gu at a loss, as if there is only one person in the world who treats an eye for an eye and is narrow-minded.

Standing on the hillside that day and looking down, seeing so many figures after Bai Diao, it is inevitable to feel nostalgic.What I saw with my own eyes was different from the few short lines of ink on the memorial. I saw a ghost that could not be covered by a palm, and presented it to Gu, but it was just a sentence, and it seemed worthless to understate it.

When the prime minister led Gu to the main tent, Gu never expected to lift the tent and see his left and right arms.The soldiers in black armor stood in front of the sand table, either frowning or staring coldly.And those people in school uniforms were gathering together, whispering something.

Seeing Gu, they stopped talking and looked at the general: "Let's ask you." The general opened the door and went straight in, looking at Gu with red eyes, "Is the tiger amulet with you?"

Suddenly asked about the whereabouts of the tiger talisman, but people did not expect: "I didn't ask for your tiger talisman at the beginning..." Looking at the black jade pendant on the sand table, and at the intricate little flags in front of the general, "If you want Ask about the Tiger Talisman of the Southern Army, King Su does not recommend that you use it."

"King Su?" The first emperor, well, that's already the first emperor.When he came to the throne, he killed all his brothers and sisters, so now there is only one person left in the three royal bloodlines.It is a dead rule of the Jing Dynasty that different surnames are not allowed to be called kings, so this King Su is not so much a prince, but a respectful title given to him by everyone.

Because he originated in Suzhou, he was the largest local snake in the area, and later funded the first emperor by mistake.At the beginning, the first emperor was able to ascend to the top, except for the military power brought by his mother, it was the strong financial resources: "Back then, I was rewarded for public service, except that the sapphire in the east was exiled when the seven kings rebelled a hundred years ago, and the red jade was no longer the southern army. command sign."

Outsiders don't know about this matter, in fact, this is one of the reasons why the general returned the tiger amulet to Gu, but Gu didn't want it.The tiger talisman is just a symbol. In this era when the imperial power was scattered, the soldiers recognized more generals who came with them: "In fact, apart from the black jade in the north, there are no orders for the white jade in the west."

Wen Sheng in Tsing Yi raised his eyebrows: "That is to say——"

"That is to say, the tiger symbol can't command anyone." Looking at Wen Sheng, "it's just a piece of beautifully carved jade with some value." There are only a few thousand people in the Internal Supervision Army.

That's why Gu was so surprised when he learned that the Western Army would return to aid the imperial capital.

"What do you want the Tiger Talisman to do?" Although most of the wound has healed, it probably really hurt his confidence. After standing for a long time, he would feel weak all over.So Gu went over those lieutenants who were like doorposts, walked to the general's position and sat down carelessly, leaning on the back of the chair and looking at their needle-like eyes.

If eyes could kill, they would probably choose to die alone.

"If the Tiger Talisman didn't work, why did the Western Army come back to help you?" The scribe with a white beard widened his eyes.

But he asked this question very well: "If you know, remember to tell Gu."

The scribe in Tsing Yi seemed to be thinking more: "Then after so many years, doesn't it mean that the military power has always been scattered all over the place?"

"Who says it's not?" This world has been handed over to the general, and now it's up to the general to save the world, so the lonely is not at all psychologically burdened, "Otherwise, why do you think that the last expeditionary force went out and the first time there was no To give you all the troops, but to give you the right to raise troops uncharacteristically?"

These things were only told to Gu after the big brother took charge of the entire Anbu, that is, at that time Gu knew that the dynasty was hopeless: "It's just because the treasury can no longer support the large-scale payment and food, so the most troublesome The matter is entrusted to you, as long as you do not cooperate with the local orders, you will not be able to raise many people."

Leaning alone on the soft cushion, looking at their unbelievable eyes, I felt happy: "But now they are all prisoners, so I might as well tell you that this time was not counted 15 years ago. In fact, it goes back three generations. The commanders of the army are all the emperor's people. The so-called expedition is just for show."

"It shouldn't have been your father, general, 15 years ago. It's just that your father was very lucky. Before the emperor's people were raised, he was admonished by the admonisher." Gu was laughing when he said it, "The first emperor had no choice but to marry your father because he was the most honest."

The general looked at Gu silently, did not speak, and did not refute: "In the end, I didn't expect that being honest is useless, and being serious is the truth. I didn't expect him to be able to pull up the northern army. When asking for money, the first emperor He had to evacuate his own private treasury, so as not to embarrass himself."

This is also one of the main reasons why I feel that this dynasty is about to end. The national treasury is empty, but the emperor's private treasury is very rich: "The ancestral system cannot be violated, but how to obey it is a matter for smart people." Leaning on the backrest, Gu raised his eyebrows Looking at the stunned lieutenant general and the thoughtful scribe below.

The general still had the rigid look. He looked at the sand table for a long time before breaking the silence: "Do you know what the other three tiger charms look like?"

"It depends on what you want the Tiger Talisman to do." Holding his chin, he smiled and looked at the big fools around him, "If you want to win over the Southern Army, Gu's answer is that you haven't seen it. If you want to drive a wedge between the Southern Army , Gu's answer is still that I haven't seen it." What's the use of the tiger charm?

It's useless at all.

"Then how did you see it!" A general standing in the closed beta looked anxious, his rushing appearance reminded Gu of the general who really regarded the big brother as an assassin in the imperial garden that day, and loyally protected the lord: " When your general ascended the throne and became emperor, "no longer concealing his true intentions, "I have seen the appearance of that tiger talisman."

"Is this a threat?" The scribe in Tsing Yi laughed, "No wonder the general said that His Majesty is still a child."

"Threat? How come, who is Gu, who dares to threaten the new emperor." There was some pain in his chest, but it didn't bother him. "It's just that compared to the current appearance of the Quartet, Gu still likes Beimo under the rule of the general." Looking at the facial features The handsome general, "Let's not talk about his personality, just his looks, Gu also likes him very much."

The general finally raised his eyes to look at Gu, but his eyes were very strange: "If there is no tiger talisman, we have no reputation to go south." He heard the real reason why Gu went around in circles, and directly told Gu about the problems they encountered when they gathered here, "Now The south is uncertain, internal and external troubles are a good time to attack—"

"If you want to take all the territory, Gu has a good suggestion for you. Before you take them down, make the infighting bigger and let them ask for help?" Gu's information, "Other Gus can't help you, but this Gu can help you do something."

After all, how to spoil everyone from the inside is what Gu is best at.An empire can be dragged down by solitary, this matter is simpler, and the most complicated is the heart, and solitary is very good at it.

Most of the generals scoffed at Gu's words, but those scholars who gathered together seemed to believe what Gu said.Even the way they looked at Gu became as if they had understood something.

"What can you do?" The general raised his hand to look at Gu, "Let's hear it?"

"The red jade back then was not worthless, but it's a pity that he was rewarded by the wrong person, and he has become worthless since then." Leaning on the armchair alone, he slowly revealed his answer, "What do you think, why? That red jade has suddenly dropped in value, it is not as good as the stone on the roadside." King Su is not a fool, let alone the previous emperor, so since he ascended the throne, King Su has never entered the capital.

They come and go just because of a word of power. When King Su got the Tiger Talisman, he was full of joy and thought that he had taken control of the military power in the south, but he found out that the former emperor had tricked him.It's just that at that time his rights in the capital had been eradicated by his mother and the first emperor, and even through Anbu's friendship with the past, he was completely driven out and trapped in Suzhou.

"Your Majesty looks confident."

"Gu just believes that the general's subordinates are not incompetent people." It's not a compliment, but when Gu heard the names of these people, he recalled something that the Tai Tuo said back then. Yes, "Incompetent people don't have the heart to talk about power alone."

The scribes in Tsing Yi were provocative without being angry, and they still had the appearance of a little secret: "Before today, I never imagined that the king of subjugation who was despised by the world looked like this. The ancients said that three people become tigers and rumors mislead others. The ancients never deceived me." He took a step back silently, and even named Gu's past behavior.

It's just that the foundation has been rotten, and Gu is too lazy to explain to them: "Gu lives, even if Gu owes you once, so these little things that have nothing to do with the overall situation, Gu will not hide."

"Gu now finds something more fun."
