"Ai Qing, get up." Ji Zhao had a joyful smile on his old face. His gentle eyes shone on Zhu Biao and he nodded approvingly. Like Li Huizu, the real treasure is to make people's eyes brighten.
Ji Zhao was very satisfied with Zhu Biao's temperament and image. The impression that was already good was even better now.
Looking at Yun Zheng who was full of energy and sharpness, and then looking at Zhu Biao who was as calm and immovable as a mountain, they were both heroes and generals, all working for him in his own hands, Ji Zhao stroked his beard and laughed.
Amid the old man's hearty laughter, Zhu Biao stood up straight from the ground, raised his head, and his eyes contained deep shock and a touch that reached deep into his soul.
How is it possible, how could this happen? The face of the King of Han was actually 50% similar to the old dean of the welfare home in his previous life. When Zhu Biao stepped into the hall just now, his eyes wanted to moisten after seeing Ji Zhao's face clearly at the first sight. It was still so sudden.
Only when he felt the fatal aura and the scorching gaze coming from the side did he feel agitated secretly, and all the touches were instantly cancelled.
"Zhu Qing, this is Yulin Weitun Military Academy Lieutenant Yun Zheng. A young talent like Aiqing, a rising star in the army. You two should have more contact, and join hands on the battlefield in the future to make contributions to our great man!"
It is a common problem among young people that they always like to put people they like together and want them to get along well with each other and show closeness. However, Zhu Biao felt a conflicting competition from the hot gaze just now.
...I want to overwhelm you.
Yunzheng? This name sounds really nice, and it feels like it fits the Tsinghua University student who is dressed in white.
But Zhu Biao, who didn't know much about the Royal Capital or even the entire Yuming battlefield, had no idea who Yun Zheng was, what he represented, or where his 'competition' came from.
However, he has never been afraid of competition. "General Yun, nice to meet you!" Zhu Biao said hello to Yun Zheng with clasped fists. The Yulin Guard is one of the armies of the Forbidden Army. Compared with the border army, the official position is one level higher than that of the county and national soldiers.
A military academy lieutenant is no less worthy than a heroic cavalry general.
"General Zhu." No matter how arrogant he was, Yun Zheng did not dare to shame Ji Zhao. He suppressed his arrogance and coldness and hugged Zhu Biao. But from his cold eyes
In the middle, what Zhu Biao saw was still strong and strong...
"Yun Zheng!" This name was engraved in Zhu Biao's heart. He didn't know why he had such a strong rejection of him. Even if he said "fellow colleagues are enemies", it shouldn't be! It's just that the first level of Zhonglang General
Is it too petty to compete for favor in front of the old Han King?
But I don't know, the Yibei Houfu will definitely know that if he becomes a captain of the Imperial Army at such a young age, no matter what the reason is, the Houfu will definitely be in trouble.
Walking out of the palace, Zhu Biao looked calm as usual, but his heart was turbulent.
The appearance of the old Han King, the mysterious aura shrouding the hall, and the clouds were all a series of shocks. No matter how calm Zhu Biao's mind was, he couldn't bear the waves.
Because the old director of the orphanage is always a soft place in his heart, and martial arts is the biggest variable in this time and space. Zhu Biao does not expect that he will be invincible in the world in a short time. This is too unrealistic. His swordsmanship is already brutal.
As the value reaches the peak, Zhu Biao's progress in martial arts will gradually return to normal. It will take many years and months for the martial arts value to reach the peak.
But he would never want to have his head cut off unknowingly at night. Such a death would be too cowardly. However, in the history of thousands of years, many geniuses and famous generals have died in such a cowardly death. Their brilliant talents may have
As soon as the tip of the iceberg showed up, it had to wither under the attack of the master.
The mysterious aura in the main hall made Zhu Biao really feel the helplessness of "having no control over his life". He rejected the appearance of this helplessness from the bottom of his heart. Compared with the first two, the excitement was undoubtedly the breeze and the waves.
. Although Zhu Biao cared about him in his heart, he was just a supporting role.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, for gaining another talent." Zhu Biao stepped back, and Yun Zheng also exited the hall. A figure flew down from the top of the hall with a roar. He fell quickly, but landed as light as a flying cloud.
silent.
This man was wearing a green gown, with white eyebrows and silver hair, and a stern expression. After saying a happy greeting, he jumped up to the top of the hall and hid behind the thick beams.
"Master, you are..."
As soon as Zhu Biao left the palace gate, he saw Dou Bing's figure raising his feet and calling.
There were two young men in green clothes beside him, standing out among a group of soldiers.
"These are the two young brothers from the Yibei Houfu. The Marquis was afraid that the young master would not be familiar with the road to the capital, so he ordered them to lead the way." Dou Bing gave Zhu Biao a reassuring look and said.
"Young men have seen General Zhu." The two young men came forward to greet him. Then the one in charge stayed, and the other went away first to report to the Yibei Houfu.
Under the guidance of the young man, Zhu Biao and a group of soldiers did not need to be anxious, and walked at a jog in the direction of Changchunfang.
Does Zhu Biao still have contact with people in the capital? Yun Zheng, who left the palace late, looked at Zhu Biao's leaving figure thoughtfully. "No wonder the king is so interested in him. It turns out that someone is playing the drum...
"After a while, Yun Zheng's face showed his usual arrogance.
The only rising talent who could compare with him. Just a few days after Zhu Biao led his army from Huaiyuan back to the Han army zone, Zhu Biao's reputation had already spread among the upper-class dignitaries in the capital. It was different from the previous time.
Compared with Zhu Biao, who had more outstanding military exploits, he naturally radiated a more dazzling light.
Involuntarily, people began to compare Yun Zheng and Zhu Biao side by side. Li Huizu's memorial for Yun Zheng came a few days earlier than Zhu Biao's. With his previous reputation as a foundation, Yun Zheng's reputation is also flying high.
The speed jumped upwards.
The Crown Prince, the Anping Marquis Mansion naturally had the means to obtain Li Huizu's petition for meritorious service. Everyone is perceptive. Although Zhu Biao's memorial is mediocre in literary talent and far from as brilliant as Yun Zheng's, all of this
The basics are all military exploits. Listing the two men's military exploits one by one, Yun Zheng is far less outstanding and important than Zhu Biao's.
Yun Zheng's relatives would ignore this. Just like Yun Zheng just saw that Zhu Biao was connected with people in the capital, and then thought that someone had spoken to Zhu Biao in front of the King of Han, but he did not 'see' that he was the one.
The real beneficiary of 'beating the drum'.
Those who flatter and want to get closer to the crown prince and the Yun family will also ignore Zhu Biao and come to infinite heights and Yun Zheng.
It's just that Yun Zheng himself was not completely lost in the sweet talk. He could still tell who was the real winner. It was precisely because of this that he showed such a strong sense of competition when he met Zhu Biao for the first time.
And struggle to win, heart.
Because he did not think that he should be a loser, it was just a matter of timing. Zhu Biao was "taking charge of his own business" in Huaiyuan, but he was "taking orders from others" in Yuming. This was how he fell behind in terms of military performance.
Yun Zheng has always been the best and most outstanding among the powerful and powerful people in the royal capital. The "victory" he has experienced since childhood has made Yun Zheng have an almost paranoid pursuit of "victory", especially when
On the battlefield that he values the most, he will become the 'unique' one. Zhu Biao's existence will only add one more loser at his feet in the future!
He wants to be a famous general, powerful in all quarters, famous throughout the ages, sweeping away the dust, and covering everyone else with his dazzling light. Zhu Biao is just his opponent now, but he is destined to be a passerby in his life - so arrogant
, is the best portrayal of Yun Zheng’s character.
Yibei Houfu.
The two closed doors of the middle door are wide open. It is not worth what the Hou Mansion does to only have one Zhonglang general, but it is definitely worth it if the Zhonglang general is replaced by Zhu Biao, whom the old Marquis has chosen. Even the stone steps in front of the door are
The soldiers, who were already holding their chests and belly high, raised their heads and chests even more today, showing high spirits.
"Old madam, the young master of the Zhu family has entered the mansion, entered the Marquis' mansion..."
There was no owner of the house to greet him at the wide open central door, but Yao Quan was standing at the foot of the stone steps outside. Zhu Biao breathed a sigh of relief, and felt a sense of gratitude for the consideration of the Yibei Marquis.
Since there was no one from the Yu family to welcome him, Zhu Biao could go to visit his mother and uncle first, and then come back to meet the master of the Hou Mansion for a while after feeling relieved.
Zhu Biao followed Yao Quan's lead and went all the way to Zhu Liu's courtyard. At the same time, the servants of the Hou Mansion quickly reported the news to the old Marquis and the old lady, both inside and outside.
I've gone to the small courtyard. Is it still far from the main courtyard?
The old lady's room was full of warblers, and their voices stopped for a moment, but then the noise started. Only Shan Yuping felt a thump in her heart, bit her lip, and stirred the silk handkerchief unconsciously with both hands.
"I wonder what the young master of the Zhu family looks like. Judging from Miss Cai'er's pretty appearance, I guess he must be a talented person."
"The third young master of the Yun family is a handsome man with a well-known reputation. If the young master of the Zhu family wants to be comparable to him, he must not only have outstanding achievements, but also be a hero on the battlefield, and people must also say that..."
"Whatever your appearance is, I would say it's just skin. A good character is what makes you really good..."
Yu Ziliang, two concubines, two legitimate sons, and four daughters-in-law were sitting in front of the old lady. At their age, these girls could speak smoothly without any shame or embarrassment.
"Those from the Chen San family, have you seen the appearance of the young master of the Zhu family? How does it compare with the brothers in the house?" The old lady seemed to be asking in a fun way, but in fact, she caught sight of Shan Yuping from the corner of her eyes, and she felt in her heart
He kept sighing helplessly.
I only have a daughter, and it really hurts my heart. She married a Hanlin happily. If my daughter and son-in-law were still here, I would never have to feel so wronged to my granddaughter.
What a pity...
"How can a man from a small family be compared with the noble son of the Hou Mansion? His appearance can only be said to be that of Zhou Zheng, but Miss Jiaocai'er is much different." You have to decide what to say or not to say, old lady.
When asked about appearance, the Chen San family members only talked about appearance. In fact, she felt that compared to Zhu Biao's mediocre appearance, the most attractive thing about Zhu Biao was his temperament, which was very calm. And he walked with a tiger's stride.
Just a glance can make people feel the pride and neither humbleness nor arrogance.
"Mom, little sister." In the small courtyard where the Zhu family settled, just when a large group of ladies in the old lady's room were chatting about Zhu Biao's appearance, he had already entered Zhu Liu's courtyard.
"Madam, madam, the young master is back, the young master is back..." Yao Jie, who was waiting outside the house, shouted loudly.
