Chapter 4: The Covenant of Beauty

Liu Biao's face changed slightly, obviously he didn't expect that this poor boy not only had the courage to accept this appointment, but also dared to ask him for the official position of Nanyang Taishou.

"Su Zhe, you have such a big appetite, you dare to ask the lord for an official!"

Without waiting for Liu Biao to attack, Cai Mao reprimanded him, Su Zhe openly asked Nanyang Taishou for his position, and regarded him, the incoming Nanyang Taishou, as what he could endure.

Su Zhe was not afraid, and said loudly: "Zhe is not asking for officials from the state pastor, Zhe just wants the world to know that the state pastor has clear rewards and punishments, and is thirsty for talent, only in this way can he attract talents from all over the world to come to my Jingzhou to join the state pastor." ”

"Youβ€”" Cai Mao's eyes widened.

"What you said is right, this official has always been thirsty for talents, rewards and punishments are clear, otherwise this recruitment meeting will not be held, regardless of background, merit-based recruitment."

Liu Biao interrupted Cai Mao and said with a smile: "This official will agree to your request, and I hereby make an agreement with you, within three months, if you can calm down the scourge of Biyang's Yellow Turban remnants, this official will definitely promote you to Nanyang Taishou." ”

"Thank you, Lord, then please wait for the good news from Zhe." Su Zhe bowed down, full of confidence.

Cai Mao frowned, his eyes seemed to be dissatisfied with Liu Biao's decision, but he couldn't say anything in public, so he had to watch Liu Biao give wine to the new county magistrates sullenly, and after giving them a lot of words of encouragement, he sent them away after distributing the letters of appointment.

At this time, Cai Mao stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Lord, this Su Zhe is so arrogant, he dares to openly ask the lord for an official, why didn't the lord punish him, but connived at him." ”

"At today's recruitment meeting, you have also seen Su Ziming's performance, he does have something extraordinary, if the official convicts him, it will inevitably attract criticism, saying that the official only values his background, but does not pay attention to real talent and learning." Liu Biao expressed his difficulties.

Cai Mao was speechless for a while.

Liu Biao squeezed out a meaningful smile on his face, and said, "Are you still afraid that he can really calm down the scourge of Biyang's yellow turban within three months?" ”

Cai Mao's expression was shocked, and she suddenly came to her senses, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook up a knowing sneer.

Releasing Cai Mao's doubts, Liu Biao looked at Su Zhe's departing figure, and couldn't help but sigh lightly: "This Su Ziming is indeed a talent, but it's a pity that he came from a poor family, it's a pity, it's a pity......"

……

Outside the recruitment meeting, Su Zhe had already jumped on the donkey cart and was about to leave.

"Ziming and staying." Sima Hui's voice sounded behind him.

Su Zhe looked back and saw Sima Hui chasing after him, hurriedly jumped off the donkey cart, bowed and said, "The student didn't go to see the teacher in order to avoid suspicion, and I ask the teacher for forgiveness." ”

"It's okay, I understand your difficulties." Sima Hui smiled generously and hurriedly helped him up, but said with a worried face: "Ziming, today's appointment to you is clearly that Liu Jingzhou and Cai Mao have the intention to embarrass you and force you to retreat despite the difficulties, you know that it is extremely dangerous to go to Biyang to be a county order, how can you still risk yourself?" ”

Su Zhe sighed lightly and said with a wry smile: "If a student is like Huang Zhu, who was born with a golden key, why take this risk, and the student has no choice, if he doesn't seize this opportunity, with the student's background, I don't know if the Year of the Monkey can have a bright future." ”

Sima Hui was silent, and after a long while, he sighed: "The teacher can understand your hardships, and the teacher has tried his best to recommend you to Liu Jingzhou, but it's a pity that Liu Jingzhou is too dependent on the four major families, don't say it's you, even those other inferior and low-class clans are difficult to use." ”

"Liu Biao is just a thief of self-defense, and he has this knowledge, so there is nothing strange about it."

In front of Sima Hui, Su Zhe finally showed his disdain for Liu Biao, but he also knew how to be measured, and he had already secretly observed that there was no one on the left and right, and his voice was as low as possible.

"Ziming, you dareβ€”" Sima Hui's expression changed, and a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"Teachers don't have to make a fuss." Su Zhe sneered and asked rhetorically: "Does the teacher think that the student went to take the risk of being the county magistrate and then asked Liu Biao for the reward of Taishou, just to take care of the family and nursing home for a lord like Liu Biao, and he couldn't work hard?" ”

Sima Hui's figure shook suddenly, and with a surprised and unexpected gaze, he once again re-examined the most proud disciple in front of him, his heart was surging, savoring the meaning of his words.

The master and apprentice looked at each other for a moment, and the surprise on Sima Hui's face faded, replaced by a smile of relief.

He understood Su Zhe's will.

Everything he, a proud protΓ©gΓ©, did, was just to take advantage of Liu Biao's momentum to take the opportunity to become famous in the world, accumulate strength, and prepare for becoming a hero.

At that moment, Sima Hui laughed: "Okay, good, you can have such ambitions, it seems that the vision of the teacher is really good, and you will live up to the name of 'Wolong' given to you by the teacher after all!" Go ahead, let go of your hands and feet to realize your ambitions, and do my best to help you for the teacher. ”

"Then the student is here to thank the teacher." Su Zhe also showed gratitude on his face, and bowed deeply.

The master and apprentice understood each other's intentions, and there was no superfluous waste, so say goodbye immediately.

Su Xiaoxiao waved his whip, and the donkey cart creaked back along the original road, and after walking less than ten steps, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind him.

Huang Jie rode his horse to catch up, slowed down, looked down at Su Zhe condescendingly, with a gloating expression, and sneered: "I didn't expect Brother Su to even lose his life in order to climb up, it really opened my eyes, I hope that soon, I won't hear the bad news that Brother Su was beheaded by the Yellow Turban Thief in Jianyang, otherwise, I will definitely be sad." ”

"Brother Lao Huang cares." Su Zhe was not angry, and only smiled lightly: "I also hope that after he becomes the Taishou of Nanyang and becomes Brother Huang's peak, Brother Huang will not be annoyed and ashamed, and resign and return to his hometown in a fit of anger." ”

Su Zhe has already decided to go all out, and at this time, there is no need to swallow his anger anymore, and the sarcasm of Huang Jie is naturally to fight back fiercely.

Huang Jie was ironically attacked by a heart attack, and the whip in his hand was subconsciously clenched, and he had the urge to whip Su Zhe on the spot, but because of his dignity, he swallowed this evil breath.

"Just because you still want to be Nanyang Taishou, and you still want to be my peak, okay, very good, I'll just sit and watch your performance in Thorn County, hahaha-"

In the midst of wild laughter, Huang Zhu didn't dare to argue with Su Zhe anymore, and rode away.

"Phew, what kind of smugness, when my son-in-law is developed and rides on your head, I will see how you will still smirk."

Su Xiaoxiao pointed out her tongue and grimaced at the back of the yellow shot in the distance.

Su Zhe smiled, and was about to ask her to catch the car.

At this moment, a woman who looked like a maidservant girl stepped forward, saluted him, and said, "Young Master Su, my young lady has a few words to say to my son, please move under the tree." ”

Su Zhe was stunned, followed the maidservant's gaze, and saw a shadow standing in the shade of a tree more than a dozen steps away, waiting for him.

He hesitated for a moment, but Su Xiaoxiao squeezed his eyebrows, and urged with a smile: "Son, what are you still doing in a daze, that young lady looks like a beauty, don't hurry up." ”

"You have such a small mouth, you will talk nonsense, be careful son, I will go back and sew you up with a needle." Su Zhe gave her a blank look, and then jumped off the donkey cart and followed the maidservant girl to the bottom of the tree.

When he got closer and saw the delicate and delicate face of the girl in yellow, Su Zhe's heart couldn't help but move, and he secretly thought in his heart: "This little ghost girl is right, she is indeed a beauty, but this beauty took the initiative to come to me, I don't know what medicine is sold in the gourd?" ”

The thoughts in his heart were flying, but Su Zhe was indifferent and calm on the surface, and arched his hand slightly: "I don't know what this young lady is looking for Xiaosheng, did we know each other before?" ”

When the girl in yellow saw Su Zhe coming, a smile like a warm sun had already appeared on her pretty face, and there was a little pulse in her watery eyes, and there was even a slight halo on her face, which seemed to be a little shy.

As soon as he spoke, the smile of the girl in yellow suddenly dissipated, her eyebrows frowned, her eyes swelled with surprise, and she asked rhetorically, "Su Lang, what are you talking about?" Don't you even know me? ”

Su Zhe was stunned, listening to the meaning of her words, it seemed that she had known the deity of this body before, but she had lost this part of her memory.

At that moment, he racked his brains, trying his best to recall the memory of the girl in yellow, and a name suddenly burst out in his mind:

Huang Yueying!

"It turns out that she is Huang Yueying, the wife of Zhuge Liang in history, who should have belonged to Zhuge Liang......"

Su Zhe came back to his senses and smiled apologetically: "It turned out to be Miss Huang, since Xiaosheng woke up, his brain has been a little difficult, and he can't remember many things, so he didn't recognize Miss Huang, and asked Miss Huang to forgive him." ”

"It turns out that you really have some amnesia, no wonder I think you have changed a lot."

Huang Yueying sighed softly, her face was a little sad, she bit her lip, hesitated for a while, and then asked in a low voice: "Then do you remember the agreement between you and me in the bamboo forest of Lumen Academy?" ”
