In fact, it was not that Cheng Yaojin had said too much today.
It was Li Chuan who had been trying to get information out of him.
"General Cheng, you don't even trust me?”Seeing Cheng Yaojin hesitate, Li Chuan touched the sword at his waist and asked with a smile.
Of course, he was only joking with Cheng Yaojin.
"Lord Observer, it's a pity that the current Qin Qiong isn't in his prime. He has been fighting all these years and has been injured. If we fight now, not to mention Yuchi Jingde, even I, Old Cheng, might not be a match for him.”However, Cheng Yaojin was also a little shocked and quickly said,
"Of course, now that I've defeated Qin Qiong, it's only because I took advantage of others when they were in danger. It can't be considered a heroic act.”
His words were crisp and beautiful, so Li Chuan couldn't find any fault with them. However, Li Chuan was smart. When he thought of his expression just now, there must be a hidden meaning in his words.
"Old Cheng, is there anything else that's a pity?”Li Chuan asked meaningfully.
In reality, Li Chuan had long realized that Qin Qiong could be considered one of the best Tiger Generals in the Great Tang. Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Yaojin could only fight for second place, so why was he ranked last in the portrait in the Lingyan Pavilion?
Logically speaking, he, who had participated in the Black Tortoise Sect's coup, should at least be around Yuchi Jingde.
"Lord Observer, I, Old Cheng, am convinced. There is really no other pity.”Cheng Yaojin had a sincere look on his face. At this moment, he wished he could kneel on the ground and beg Li Chuan to let him go.
"General Cheng, what are you talking about? Of course I believe you.”Li Chuan pretended to ask,
"What a pity, what a pity. Who should I tell the story of the Han Dynasty long painting to?”
Cheng Yaojin's heart felt like it was filled with grass when he heard this.
During the march in the afternoon, Cheng Yaojin could not help but feel an itch in his heart. He resolved the doubts in Li Chuan's heart.
"Young master Li Chuan, actually, you don't know. I, Old Cheng, Yuchi Jingde, and Qin Qiong are different.”Cheng Yaojin rode to Li Chuan's side and did not keep him in suspense. He took the initiative to say,
"I, Old Cheng, and Yuchi Jingde are His Highness 'generals, but Qin Qiong, who is in the Heavenly Policy Manor, has not been able to put himself in the right position and has regarded himself as a general of the Great Tang.”
"General of the Great Tang, it seems that General Qin is loyal and upright. Isn't this a good thing?”Li Chuan asked.
"Your Highness doesn't think this is a good thing, but I, Old Cheng, and Yuchi Jingde won't think this is a good thing.”Cheng Yaojin chuckled and didn't say anything else, letting Li Chuan think about it.
Immediately, Li Chuan understood. Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde were loyal and upright, but they were loyal to Li Er and only followed him.
On the other hand, Qin Qiong had placed himself in the wrong position. He would definitely say the wrong things and do the wrong things later on. Otherwise, he would not have fallen to the bottom of the 24 meritorious officials of the Lingyan Pavilion.
"It seems that I'll have to help this number one Tiger General of the Great Tang in the future.”Li Chuan had some thoughts in his mind.
Since he had returned to the Tang Dynasty, he naturally had to change the history of the past. If he could fight side by side with the number one tiger general of the Tang Empire and talk to the Tang War God, wouldn't he be considered the number one man of the Tang Empire?
In reality, he was the same as Qin Qiong. Although he was in the Great Tang and in King Qin's Mansion, he did not necessarily place himself on Li Er's side.
In the Great Tang, although Li Er had become the One Chosen by Heaven…he might be able to become the Heaven in the future! Whether or not Li Er could sit firmly in the future would depend on his performance after he became an emperor!
"Mister Observer, are you satisfied now?”Cheng Yaojin looked at Li Chuan and stammered,
"In the future, that Han Dynasty long painting of my Old Cheng!"
"Don't worry, General Cheng. I'll tell you a few times on the way back after I'm done with my business in Youzhou.”Li Chuan laughed and agreed.
" Haha!" Cheng Yaojin laughed foolishly. He was so happy that he was going crazy. He could listen to it several times in advance. When he returned to Chang 'an, Yuchi Jingde and Qin Qiong would be envious of him.
His Highness didn't arrange for anyone else to do such a good job. As expected, he valued Old Cheng the most.
......
That night, the young princess was crying in her room and refused to eat dinner.
"Youzhou is located at the border of the Great Tang. King Lujiang Li Yuan has tens of thousands of soldiers and is not very talented. Such a person is the easiest to be bewitched. Li Chuan is still a child.”When Qin Wangfei (Crown Princess) saw Li Er walking over, she could not help but complain,"
"Now, if Li Chuan is in danger, I'll see how you explain it to Lizhi.”
Li Er was already physically and mentally exhausted after dealing with a whole day of political affairs. Seeing that Wang Fei was a little angry, he smiled apologetically and said,
"I'm busy with government affairs and don't have enough manpower. I didn't plan to deal with Youzhou, but Li Chuan is the best candidate. Don't you think it's a waste to let a talented person like Li Chuan teach beauty in the residence? In this way, Li Chuan would be able to convince the public when he becomes an official in the future. As for Li Chuan's personal safety, Madam, please rest assured.”
At this point, Li Er made an apologetic gesture. He did not expect Consort Qin to still not appreciate it.
Li Er could only say patiently,
"As for Lizhi's meal, Li Chuan has already arranged it. Here, this is the recipe Li Chuan gave me yesterday.”
Seeing Li Er take out the recipe, Consort Qin's tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed. She smiled and said,"
"Li Chuan is really meticulous. I think only such a person can be qualified to be a lookout.”
......
After the thousand light cavalry left Chang 'an, they marched day and night. They rested at noon every day and rested once every three days.
After marching for several days, they finally entered Dai County at noon.
In a forest, Cheng Yaojin ordered,"
"Pass down the order. The army will rest for the time being. Three teams of scouts will patrol the surroundings.”
Li Chuan brought Cheng Yaojin and a few bodyguards. Cheng Yaojin began to lecture his subordinates,
"Brothers, when you've arrived at Youzhou Province, you'd better keep your eyes open. Don't blame me for being merciless if anyone dares to play dumb at this moment.”
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Before he finished his words, a dozen arrows suddenly shot towards the crowd from the bushes not far away.
A sudden change occurred!
(The third chapter is coming. Speaking of which, I feel like I've put in quite a lot of effort into writing, but the flower evaluation votes are indeed a little ugly. There doesn't seem to be anyone in the comment section either. Brothers who are following me, can you show up and take a look? I know you're all very handsome! More handsome than me!
