Facts have proved that Cheng Yuan has a gentle and loyal temperament and is indeed an obedient and sensible boy.
At first, Xu Ke was a little worried.
worry about what?
Naturally, he was worried that Cheng Yuan would not cooperate.
Cheng Yuangang was young and vigorous. If he felt that he was not used by his master as soon as he became an official, but was overshadowed by a person with a poor background, he would feel uncomfortable and uncooperative... If so, Xu Ke But I have a headache.
Fortunately, the scene Xu Ke was worried about did not happen.
Cheng Yuan was young and inexperienced, but he was methodical and meticulous in his work. The key was that he was still humble and studious, and would not look down upon Xu Ke because of his humble background. No matter how boring and tedious the task is, Cheng Yuan can still concentrate on it. He is like a little angel in Xu Ke's eyes.
What boss and colleague wouldn't like such a good employee who works overtime and doesn't complain?
As a result, Cheng Yuan easily gained the favor of Xu Ke and Qi Guanrang, and the three of them worked together very well.
After all, Cheng Yuan has no experience. Even if he is careful enough, there are still small mistakes in many places.
Xu Ke and Qi Guanrang didn't mind the trouble either. If they could give advice, they would give advice. If they couldn't, they would help him make up for his mistakes, making Cheng Yuan "like a spring breeze".
At first, Cheng Yuan thought that becoming an official would cause conflict and make it difficult for him to integrate into the collective.
Now, at a glance, the people under the lord's command are quite easy to get along with.
but……
"Today, Xiaoyu asked about my brother."
Cheng Cheng raised his eyelids. He had recently been busy sorting out his collection of books and classifying them in further detail, and he hadn't paid much attention to his son.
Even so, he also knew that his son had been busy with government affairs in recent days.
"Ask Gongluo? What happened to him?"
Cheng Cheng had two sons and one daughter. Except for the eldest son who was serving as an official elsewhere, the younger son and daughter were still with him.
When his family fled Sui'an County, he took his wife, second son and daughter away.
Only the eldest son who got married and established a career did not.
The eldest son Cheng Xun, whose courtesy name is Gongluo, has a temperament that is almost the same as that of the second son.
"Xiaoyu asked his son if he had an older brother. He also asked a lot of indirect questions about his brother..." Cheng Yuan was a little confused and suspected that his brother and Xiaoyu were old friends. "...My brother has been an official abroad for many years and has returned home many times. My son doesn’t know much... Could it be that Xiaoyu is an old acquaintance of my brother? Or, where did Xiaoyu hear my brother’s name? "
After hearing this, Cheng Cheng's eyes changed, and he looked at his son with a bit of pity.
He knew his eldest son, who had a strong sense of family status, and it was absolutely impossible for him to have the same circle of friends as Xu Ke, let alone know him.
Xu Ke asked Cheng Yuan if he had an older brother. The most likely reason was that he wanted to "abduct" someone.
Cheng Cheng lowered his eyelids.
It’s not just that I kidnapped the old one, it’s not just that I kidnapped the second boy, but I also want to kidnap the eldest brother... Yeah, yeah, yeah, great.
"I'm afraid Gongluo's temperament is not suitable for him."
Cheng Yuan suddenly opened his eyes wide. After his father's guidance, he finally understood Xu Ke's true purpose.
"Brother will not come."
Cheng Cheng curled his lips secretly. As long as Jiang Pengji wasn't crazy, she wouldn't be able to accept Cheng Xun.
"Father, I heard that the Lord will lead an army to serve the King tomorrow."
"Do you want to follow?" Cheng Cheng asked calmly.
"I want to see you, but based on the situation, it's probably not possible." Cheng Yuan really wanted to go, but he also knew that he wouldn't be of use if he went. King Qin was not a small thing, and there was a huge battle every minute. He is inexperienced and too green.
Cheng Cheng said, "The situation in the world is in chaos, and King Qin will become an important turning point. You don't need to join in the fun, or add to the chaos if you can't help."
Cheng Yuan looked depressed, he was shocked by his old father.
Cheng Cheng whispered, "However, if you want to get ahead, this is also a good opportunity."
"Please give me some advice from father."
"Marushu has just been captured, and its foundation is unstable. The lord has to mobilize some elites to serve the king, which means that the troops left behind will be seriously insufficient. To alleviate the crisis, we can only recruit troops and train elites at the same time. It can be seen from this , how much pressure there is. But as long as you can survive the initial period, the lord's power in the north will be completely stable. If you work hard and be pragmatic, no one can erase your share. …Remember, don’t be as eager for quick success and success as your brother, the word ‘stability’ comes first.”
Cheng Cheng analyzed it carefully for his son and did not forget to give it a beating.
He didn't like officialdom, but both sons had their own ideas. He could only use his own experience to give them some advice.
It's a pity that the eldest son disliked him, and there was a lot of friction between father and son.
The younger son is obedient and easy to coax, and has a gentle temperament, so he can listen to his suggestions.
On the other side, Jiang Pengji also decided on King Haoqin's "lineup".
"Jingrong once served under King Changshou and knows them well. You are indispensable for King Qin this time." Jiang Pengji was the first to name Yang Si. Yang Si showed an expression of despair. She said amusedly, "No matter how strong King Changshou is, he can still rush into the camp and cut you into pieces? Why, your lord is still standing in front of you, so I won't hand you over."
Yang Si wiped his sweat secretly.
He tricked King Changshou so miserably that they not only wanted to cut him into pieces, but also probably wanted to destroy his clan.
Knowing that he was going to face his old club before the battle, Yang Si felt a little guilty, but also a little excited.
"After careful consideration, I plan to choose Zishi for the other person. The rest of you will stay in Wanzhou. I hope you will guard the area for me."
Jiang Pengji did not choose Wei Ci and the others, but Feng Zhen instead. His strategic planning is more suitable for the chaotic situation of defending the king.
When Feng Zhen heard that he was named, his eyes lit up and he was full of energy.
He finally didn't have to deal with those disgusting hypocrites and even more disgusting government affairs.
Thinking of the scene where he and Feng Jin dealt with the gentry in Shangyang County a few days ago, it was simply a nightmare.
"My lord is wise."
Feng Zhen smiled, and the smile on his mouth could not be concealed.
As for the military generals, Jiang Pengji chose Li Yun and Dian Yin, and the others stayed to continue recruiting or training troops.
"Do you have any objections to this arrangement?"
She looked around and asked everyone.
Meng Hun, who was standing aside, had a slight change of expression, and after a while, he stepped out to ask for the opportunity.
Jiang Pengji frowned and asked, "Why?"
Meng Hun said, "The emperor ordered the king to defend the country, which is probably related to the Meng family's defection to the King of Changshou. I was once the commander of Meng County in Cangzhou, and I served the Meng family. I know them well. Therefore, I beg the lord to allow me to go to the war..."
He said this, embarrassed and speechless, with an awkward expression.
Meng Hun and the Meng family have an irreconcilable hatred.
Jiang Pengji lowered her eyes and thought carefully.
She kept Meng Hun only because he had rich experience in training soldiers, high prestige in the army, and could control the situation... In comparison, Li Yun and Dian Yin were both rookies. Although they had a reputation, they were not experienced enough. They should be given more opportunities to make achievements and accumulate military merits.
Since Meng Hun took the initiative to volunteer, it was not impossible.
Luo Yue was born as a coach of the Imperial Army and has accumulated enough experience in training soldiers over the years. If he promoted two people to assist him, even if Meng Hun followed him to the front line, it would not have much impact on the rear... After considering this, Jiang Pengji agreed to Meng Hun's request.
Meng Hun said, "Thank you, my lord!"
