Chapter Seventy-One: The Grace of Granting Karma

In the past, when Li Xin was still a small person, he only asked about the interests and disadvantages of doing things, not whether they were right or wrong, which was a very normal adult mentality, and Li Xin also taught this sentence to the little marquis of the Ye family.

But before Ye Sheng died, he taught Li Xin another sentence.

That is, if you have stood tall enough, you might as well ask what is right and wrong before doing something, and then think about the stakes and benefits.

Li Xin listened to this sentence and thought it was true.

That's why he offended almost the entire military department at this juncture, with such an arrogant attitude.

After all, if he wants supplies, there are many other ways to go, such as asking Taikang Tianzi directly, or going to the household department to ask for money in person, no matter which side will give Li Xin a little face, and it is not difficult to get something.

It really doesn't work, he doesn't need so many numbers recorded in the account books of the Treasury Department, if it is only half, then even if the inventory of the Treasury Department is not enough, those officials of the Ministry of War will be willing to make up for this gap.

Li Xin could have many other options, but he chose this most blunt and "stunned" approach.

The reason for this is because it should have been done in the first place, and because it is ...... Because he was already standing high enough, so high that the men of the army could not reach his ankles, and there was no way to pull him down, so he could offend these people with impunity.

After leaving the military headquarters, before the time reached noon, Li Xin got on his ink horse and walked towards the Yulinwei camp in the south of the city.

Soon, he arrived at the gate of the Yulinwei camp.

At this time, all the people in the right camp of Yulinwei were dragged by Chongheng to the north to send things, and they have not yet returned, so only the left camp is left in the Yulinwei camp, most of which are Li Xin's old department, and he entered the left camp of Yulinwei very smoothly, and was taken to the door of Wang Zhong's class room of Yulin Zuolang.

The door to the class room was slammed shut.

Several lieutenants of the left battalion knocked on the door one by one, shouting inside that Marquis Li was coming, but there was still no movement inside.

Li Xin waved his hand very dryly.

"Bump away."

So, the four lieutenants of the left battalion simply slammed into the door, which was originally a wooden door, but was hit by the four big men, and the two door panels immediately fell to the ground, setting off a puff of smoke and dust.

As soon as the door opened, a strong smell of alcohol came to my face.

The unkempt Zuo Lang General Wang Zhong was half-lying on a chair, holding a wine jug in one hand, and drank unconscious.

Even when the door fell to the ground, he was unconscious.

Li Xin frowned and walked in. y

"How long has Master Wang been like this?"

He asked a lieutenant.

This captain of Yulinwei used to be a team leader under him, and when he heard this, he hurriedly said: "Back to the Hou Ye, Wang Tou'er, he has come from... After Old Man Ye left, he kept himself in his room and drank, and he didn't ask much about Yulin Weili......"

On Ye Sheng's 80th birthday, Wang Zhong took 16 old pawns to congratulate him on his birthday, and 18 people drank happily that day, but the next day, the old man Ye Sheng died.

The reason for this is not understood by others, but Wang Zhong, who is the grandmaster of the inner boxing, must know something.

After Ye Sheng left, he also went to Qin Yuanhua, who had not yet had time to leave Beijing, and learned that the old man was indeed sick and could not drink.

That time, everyone went to pay homage together, and he was the one who contacted him, so he naturally blamed himself for this incident.

For nearly two months since then, Wang Zhong has been like this, getting drunk every day, half-asleep and half-awake, and he will get up and smoke his mouth.

If it weren't for the fact that he had practiced internal boxing since he was a child and had a good body, he might have accompanied Ye Sheng at this time.

Li Xin sighed and waved his hand.

"I know, you go out first, and I'll have a few words with Master Wang."

The four lieutenants all retreated respectfully.

After several people left, only Li Xin and Wang Zhong were left in the room, Li Xin found a broom from outside the room, swept all the debris on the floor of the room at the door, and then tidied up the room a little, and finally moved a chair and sat next to Wang Zhong.

He reached out and took down the pot of wine in Wang Zhong's hand, put it on the table, and sighed slightly.

"Master Wang, I'm going north to Jimen in a few days."

Lao Wang Zhong faced the sky with his back up, his eyes closed, and he completely ignored Li Xin.

The Marquis of Jing'an was not discouraged, but just smiled and said: "Master Wang, don't pretend, I have rarely been drunk since I practiced boxing for ten years, you have practiced all your life, and you can't get drunk." ”

Practicing boxing will not increase the amount of alcohol, but practicing the inner boxing will be, Li Xin has been practicing boxing for ten years, and now there is no problem at all with drinking a pound and a half of toasting wine, even if he really drinks too much, at most he will be dizzy, and it is impossible to be unconscious.

Like Wang Zhong, who has practiced breathing and breathing since he was a child, the possibility of him getting drunk is not high.

Of course, this is all Li Xin's own speculation, and he doesn't know if practicing boxing can increase the amount of alcohol.

However, I have the impression that since he knew Wang Zhong, this old guy has been drinking every day, but he has never seen him really make a mistake.

Wang Zhong was still facing the sky on his back, his gray beard was horizontal and vertical, ignoring Li Xin.

Li Xin didn't mind, he just talked about himself.

"I know that Master Wang is guilty of Master Ye's affairs."

He picked up the teapot on the table, poured a cup of tea for Wang Zhong, and then sighed.

"Don't hide it from Master Wang, Master Ye has been having problems with his body since last autumn, and he has pain all over his body every day, and his old man has been holding on for more than half a year to his eightieth birthday."

"On that day, I was able to have a drink with my old brothers, and he walked away with a smile."

"If there is a spirit after death, Master Ye must also thank you, Master Wang, and will never blame your old man."

Wang Zhong still closed his eyes and did not speak.

Li Xin let out a breath slowly.

He patted Old Man Wang on the shoulder and continued: "Even if there is no such time, it is also a year and a half of life, and he has to suffer from pain every day, it may not be a good thing for him to go away so happily." ”

Wang Zhong's eyelids moved.

Li Xin stood up and bowed to the old man.

"Master Wang, the disciple will go north in a few days, this time it is estimated that it will take a little longer, and you will not be able to return to Beijing for about several years, the disciple is not in the capital, your old man should take care of himself."

"I have already explained to my family that I will still come here to send things to Master Wang during the New Year's holidays."

Speaking of this, Li Xin sighed and bowed deeply again.

"When the disciple first arrived in the capital, he entered Yulinwei, and was given the grace of Master Wang, and he took care of him a lot, and the disciple sincerely hoped that Master Wang could enjoy his old age in peace."

"Master Wang has no children under his knees, and the disciple will give you a pension in the future."

As he spoke, Li Xin sighed and turned to leave.

Before leaving, he also specially instructed a few lieutenants to repair Wang Zhong's door, after all, Wang Zhong spent most of the day in the class room, if there was no door, it would be difficult to hide the matter of drinking in the Yulinwei camp.

After he left, Wang Zhong, who was lying on the chair, slowly opened his eyes.

The old man, who was already in his seventies, sat up slowly, looked at the steaming tea on the table, and did not move for a long time.
