Chapter Seventy-One: I'm embarrassed to laugh out loud
The generals received their orders and went to do their own thing.
Chongpu put his hands behind his back and stood in place for a while. After looking at the distance for a while, he turned his head, sighed, and was about to inspect the city wall, when he suddenly saw that his subordinates had all gone, but he was watching the lively Tang Ning on the side, and frowned:
"What are you still doing here? Didn't you hear what the man just said? The thieves are coming on the way, and it's dangerous for you to stay here. β
Tang Ning said righteously: "The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband!" As the overseer of Huanqing Road, and I am on the front line of the fight against the Xia army's thieves, I can't ignore and turn a blind eye to this tense situation.
Lord Zhizhou, please let the lowly post stay and help! Even if you don't let the lowly job help, let the lowly stand aside and learn and learn! β
Chong Pu's two eyebrows were raised and he was about to scold, but he seemed to suddenly remember something. The two eyebrows were lowered, and he looked at Tang Ning and said, "That's a good point, but you really think so?" β
Tang Ning nodded and said, "That's right, this is a humble thought from the heart. When I heard you reprimand that general just now, the lowly post had a sense of admiration for you, and the humble's admiration for you was like a surging river that was endless, and like the flooding of the Yellow River, it was out of control.
At that moment, he decided to become the same person as Lord Zhizhou in the future, in order to protect his family and defend the country, fight at the forefront of the battle, and for the people of my Great Song Dynasty, although he died without regrets.
Even if there is only a 1 in 10,000 chance of becoming a person as great as Lord Zhizhou, then the humble position will try to catch him! β
Chong Pu's face was very weird, and Tang Ning's words were sincere, mixed with his own sycophants, and also mixed with his strong desire to serve the country.
He likes this kind of person very much, but he doesn't believe that Tang Ning will be this kind of person from the bottom of his heart.
Although it was only the first time they met, Chong Pu's intuition told him that the young man in front of him would definitely not be so noble as he said.
Over the years, he relied on this intuition to make repeated military exploits, defeating the Tangut and Tibetan people countless times.
Thinking of this, Chong Pu was a little hesitant. Looking up at Tang Ning's sincere eyes, Chong Pu sighed. I decided to put my instincts aside this time.
The young man could say something like this without thinking, maybe this was what he really thought?
"Okay." In the end, Chong Pu nodded. Ordered the guards on the side, and led Tang Ning and the two men beside him to take a set of forbidden army armor each. Then he said to Tang Ning: "For your sake, this official will agree to your request."
But you have to remember that if something happens, it's all your own fault, and don't come to trouble the old man when you die, understand? β
Tang Ning nodded again and again: "This is nature. β
Chong Pu continued: "In this case, you and Ge Kui go to get a set of armor and put it on, and after changing, go to the city to find the official. If the thieves come, remember not to stay too far away from the officer, otherwise it will be the same as before, and you will bear the consequences, understand? β
"Understood, thank you, Lord Zhizhou!"
"Go ahead." Chong Pu waved his hand, and Tang Ning took Lin Wei and Qi Fu, whose legs were a little weak, and followed the guard down to the city.
Chong Pu touched his chin and looked thoughtfully at the back of Tang Ning's departure, is this kid's idea really that simple?
A person who became an official before he reached twenty is still a fool who takes the initiative to become a military attachΓ©?
Chong Pu shook his head vigorously, this is impossible, this kid must have other ideas, but he didn't see it through.
But what if you have other ideas? It's just a small overseer, and it can't turn over any strong winds and waves. And he has already decided to keep him by his side, if this kid is really anything unusual, he will kill him with a knife.
Thinking of this, Chong Pu no longer thought about Tang Ning, and turned his head and began to inspect the city defense.
And did Tang Ning really say this in his imagination with a dirty thought in his heart?
"Brother-in-law! Lord Zhizhou has said that you don't need us, why do you want to stay? How dangerous it is, the Tangut people are powerful.
Otherwise, I won't go up with you, anyway, with Brother Lin here, he will definitely protect you. I won't go, I'm just a burden when I go, I can't help, maybe I'll drag everyone down......" Qi Fu whispered in Tang Ning's ear as he walked.
The voice was low, but the tone was urgent.
Tang Ning glanced at Qi Fu and said, "Do you know why I want to stay?" β
Qi Fu shook his head vigorously: "I don't know." β
"If you don't have that much fear for the Tanguts, why should I take this risk for you?" Tang Ning stopped, looked at Qi Fu and said seriously: "I know that for some reason, your fear of the Tangut people has been engraved in your heart since you were a child.
But how powerful can the Tangut people be? They are also human beings, and if they hit the vital point, they will not pat their butts and continue to shout and kill like no one else, they will also die, which is no different from us.
You are a man, the pillar of your old Qi family, and the hope of your sister, and the lintel of the Qi family will depend on you to carry forward in the future.
If you don't take this good opportunity to overcome your fear of the Tangut people, what will you do if others will point fingers at you in the future, saying that you are just a waste who is strong on the outside and only on the inside?
If this matter reaches Han Mei's ears, what will she think of you?
Don't forget what you're here for. β
Because Tang Ning's words did not deliberately avoid the others, the guard named Ge Kui, who was walking at the front, also heard it.
Turning his head to look at Qi Fu, he said with a smile: "Boy, are you afraid of the West Thief?" β
Qi Fu craned his neck and wanted to refute, but the vicious-looking guard smiled at him, and he felt a sense of weakness. Finally, he lowered his head and said nothing.
Tang Ning shook his head and said, "Ah Fu, your sister values you more than anything else. At the beginning, for you, she was a weak woman with a knife and dared to go directly to the messy Jiudou Mountain, just to find you back.
If I hadn't sent someone to look for it, and the person went in time, your sister would have met with an accident.
In this way, your sister still insists on going to you.
And now your sister has entrusted you to me, this is her trust in me, and I dare not live up to it.
If you are really afraid of the Tangut people and you have to pee your pants when you see them, then you can go, go far, find a random woman, have a few children, and pass on the seeds of your old Qi family.
I will not cure your heart, but I will keep your life. If you fail to swing the knife in time and die because of fear, your sister will not let me go, and I can't afford such a serious consequence. β
"Brother-in-law......" Qi Fu saw Tang Ning looking at him
There was a slight sense of disappointment, and there was a little panic in my heart.
A long time ago, the person Qi Fu admired the most was the big boss. He feels that the big boss is not only good at kung fu, but also very responsible and responsible, and he wants to become a big boss when he grows up.
After that, the person he admired the most became Xiucai. Although Xiucai is elusive, he always has his eyes above the top. But he is very knowledgeable, from astronomy to geography, he knows a little bit or two, and when he was a child, he had many naΓ―ve questions, all of which Xiucai answered for himself.
Now, the person he admires the most has become his brother-in-law. Although the brother-in-law does not have the force value of the big boss, he has responsibility and a sense of responsibility, which Qi Fu sees in his eyes.
Not only that, but my brother-in-law knows a lot like Xiucai, and his cultural level is very high, but his handwriting is not as good-looking as Xiucai.
But this is not important, the important thing is that Tang Ning has the advantages of being a big master and a showman, Qi Fu, a child who is just seventeen years old, has undefined three views, and it is easy to take Tang Ning as his role model and become a little fan of Tang Ning.
It's unacceptable for idols to be disappointed in themselves, and it's the same for Qi Fu.
"Well, you'd better go." Tang Ning shook his head, then turned his head to look at Ge Kui and said, "Brother Ge, can I trouble you with something?" The messenger is going to Gyeongju to report the news here, right?
Can you trouble the Courier to bring my unsuccessful brother with you? Look at this, I'm not at ease with letting him go back alone. β
Although Ge Kui looks fierce and vicious, he is also a wonderful person. Seeing Tang Ning squeezing his eyebrows frantically behind Qi Fu's back, he understood in his heart.
Nodding his head, "Okay, I'll go talk to the messenger, it shouldn't be a problem." But on the way, your brother had better keep a low profile, and if he is scolded, he must hold back and keep quiet.
The messenger who delivered the letter this time was a short-tempered man, and he was most unaccustomed to this kind of wretched ......."
Qi Fu's face darkened suddenly.
Ge Kui hurriedly explained: "Oh, I'm sorry, the younger brother of the overseer, I didn't mean it...... Forget it, don't explain, I'll go and inform the messenger. β
With that, Ge Kui raised his feet and prepared to leave.
Tang Ning held back his smile and blushed, Lin Wei was an old Jianghu, the door and door here were naturally clear, and there was a snicker when he hung his head, and Ge Kui, who had walked less than two steps, also let out a snort in his mouth.
Qi Fu was ashamed and angry, but he couldn't lose his temper, all of this was his own reason.
Hearing the disgusting laughter like a donkey crowing from the mouth of his most admired brother-in-law, Qi Fu finally couldn't help it. Annoyed and angry, he said, "Enough! I'm not going!
Isn't it the Tangut people, I'll kill one in a while for you to see! β
Ge Kui immediately turned around and raised his thumb and said, "Good boy, there is a kind!" β
Tang Ning stopped laughing, patted Qi Fu's shoulder and said earnestly: "Oh, Ah Fu, you don't have to be reckless.
And no one is persecuting you, is there?
If you're scared, just go, and no one will say you're a......"
Qi Fu's face became the color of an eggplant, and Tang Ning stopped laughing and said: "I'm sorry I remembered a joke just now, and I accidentally laughed out loud, I didn't laugh at you for being a wreck, don't take it to heart...... Hahahaha......"
