Chapter 74 Unexpected Letter
,,,,,,,,,,,,
Liu Jing didn't speak for a long time, and Gan Ning finally went to Jiangxia. Moreover, Gan Ning was a general on the water, but he asked him to guard the hinterland of Jiangxia. This...
Liu Jing sighed in his heart. He didn't know what to say. In the Romance of China, it was said that Huang Zubo was treating Gan Ning, but in fact, the roots still lie with Liu Biao.
Sun Quan knew how to use wise men and eventually achieved the imperial career. Cao Cao only promoted his talents and eventually unified the north. Liu Biao had talented people such as Kong Ming, Pang Tong, Xu Shu, and generals such as Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, and Wei Yan, but his foundation was lost. It is impossible to say that Liu Biao had problems with his employment.
Maybe he has difficulties, but whoever has no difficulties depends on how to deal with difficulties, be trapped by difficulties, and without the courage to solve problems, such a person will never achieve great things.
Take the private use of the music department as an example. It has been eleven years since I couldn't solve this problem for a long time. I still rely on my own small matter to start the operation. However, when I announced Zhang Yun's charge, I did not mention the music department at all. This is a worrying thing about the music department, and I am afraid of my hands and feet. Can I really limit the spread of the music department?
Liu Jing sighed in his heart. A leaf can tell that Qiu is scheming from Liu Biao's appointment of Gan Ning, which shows that this person is scheming and suspicious of employing people. He does not have the courage to do big things. If he were himself, let Gan Ning guard Chaisang and treat him with sincerity. Could Gan Ning surrender to Dongwu?
At this moment, Liu Jing suddenly remembered a fatal thing. If he joined the army, the military rules were strict and he was not allowed to leave the military camp, what should he do if he practiced martial arts by himself.
This idea jumped into his heart, and Liu Jing suddenly burst into cold sweat on his back. He actually forgot about the most critical thing. His lips moved, but he didn't know what to say.
Liu Biao saw that Liu Jing looked abnormal. He thought Liu Jing had an objection for Gan Ning's affairs, and he felt a little displeased, "What, you are not satisfied with Gan Ning's arrangement."
Liu Jing shook his head quickly, "I don't dare to do it because of my own business, and my nephew has other difficulties."
"You have any difficulties, please tell me."
Perhaps Liu Biao also realized that his attitude was a bit cold and hard. After all, he was his nephew and a child. He should be more tolerant. His face began to become gentle and he smiled and said, "Jing'er, your parents have passed away. I am your closest person. If you have any difficulties, just say, my uncle will do his best to help you."
Liu Jing didn't want to talk about his martial arts practice, but if he didn't say it, he couldn't find a reason to make special requests. Helplessly, Liu Jing had to hesitate: "Report to my uncle, my nephew actually practices martial arts in the Han River every night, and he can't leave the Han River. My nephew begged my uncle to arrange my nephew in the navy."
Liu Hu's eyes widened beside him, and he thought to himself: Good, it turns out that he is practicing martial arts in Hanshui. No wonder he has made great progress. This little girl secretly hides it from everyone. I don't know at all, how to practice martial arts in water.
Liu Huwu was obsessed with it, and a hint of expectation arose in his heart. Can he get a little more?
Liu Biao was also quite interested and laughed: "So that's it. This is the first time I heard that someone practices martial arts in the Han River. In fact, you can arrange you anywhere, but the key is that you have to tell me the truth. I don't like being deceived."
Speaking of this, Liu Biao's eyes became sharper and he looked at Liu Jing, "Do you understand what I said?"
Liu Jing nodded silently, "Nephew understands"
"Just understand, I will consider your request."
Liu Biao's expression was like a chameleon, from dissatisfaction to gentleness, and then became stern, but when his eyes turned to Liu Hu, his eyes softened again.
Liu Hu was always trembling, but his heart was filled with the same expectation. Before Liu Biao could speak, Liu Hu immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "My nephew is willing to follow Brother Jing and beg his uncle to fulfill his wish."
Liu Biao couldn't help laughing, "You're stupid, you're not stupid, okay, I'll give you my help."
Liu Jing and Liu Hu said goodbye and left. Liu Biao stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back and stared at the few wintersweets in the yard. The light yellow wintersweets were blooming brightly, and bursts of fragrance floated. Liu Biao was not interested in appreciating them. He was still considering Liu Jing's affairs.
When he talked about practicing martial arts just now, he reminded him of something. It is said that his nephew actually went to Zhao Yunwu, which made Liu Biao suddenly realize something. No wonder Liu Bei wanted to recommend Jing'er.
Liu Biao couldn't help but sneer. Liu Xuande had a good idea. In any case, he didn't want Liu Bei to date his nephew too closely, so as not to make Jing'er a chess in his hand.
At this time, the door rang, and Liu Cong's voice came, "Father, can I come in?"
"Come in"
Liu Biao's thoughts were disrupted. He withdrew his thoughts and returned to his seat. The door opened. Liu Cong walked in, knelt down respectfully and kowtowed, "Watching my father."
Liu Biao was a little dissatisfied with this time except for his low figure, and he was quite satisfied with other aspects, especially when he was very filial and cared about himself and his stepmother. His wife praised him more than once. In contrast, Liu Qi did a little worse job in this.
"Is there anything you have to do?" Liu Biao asked with a smile.
"I heard that early April is the birthday of the Tao family's old head, and the child is willing to go to Chaisang for his father to pay his birthday."
.........
"Brother Jing, are you really practicing martial arts in the river?" Liu Hu asked carefully on the ferry crossing the river.
Liu Jing stood by the side of the boat, silently staring at the vast river. He did not hear Liu Hu's questions, and his thoughts were still above his new position. In the study, there were many things he had not thought of, and now he began to slowly recall them.
Why is it that Liu Bei pleaded for him and advised Liu Biao to reuse him? Of course, Liu Bei hoped that he could take on a great responsibility in some way, but Liu Jing always had an intuition that Liu Bei was a complicated person, so he might not have good intentions.
Seeing that Liu Jing ignored him, Liu Hu sighed and felt a sense of self-blame in his heart. He was really greedy. Brother Jing taught him such a profound sword technique. Is he still not satisfied? He is still as if he is exploring Brother Jing’s secret again.
Liu Hu actually slapped himself in the face.
Liu Jing was stunned, looked back at him, frowned and said, "What are you doing?"
Liu Hu looked ashamed and lowered his head and said, "I am so greedy, and I want to practice martial arts underwater again."
"You're thinking too much"
Liu Jing sighed, patted his shoulder and smiled and said, "Tiger, I trained underwater not for martial arts, but for training my strength. I am not strong enough. If I have natural divine power like you, why should I work so hard?"
Liu Hu then realized that he scratched his head and said, "Then you can practice lifting stone locks. Everyone in the sword hall practices like this, and I practice strength like this, and the effect is quite good."
Liu Jing shook his head. He was practicing martial arts underwater not just to increase his strength. More importantly, he practiced the use of strength. The various water flows hidden under the water made his power run smoother. I am afraid that this is the real purpose of Yu Zhenren to let him practice underwater.
But he didn't want to say more about these words, and Liu Hu might not understand them even if he said them. Liu Jing smiled and changed the topic, "I originally planned to recommend you to take over as the governor of Youjiao, why do you want to join the army with me again?"
Liu Hu bit his lips and stuttered: "I just think... your choices are correct, I will follow you."
Liu Jing looked at this person half a head taller than him and felt a lot of emotion. He found that Liu Hu was not stupid. He was smarter than many people. He would not analyze You Jiaohou's status and gains and losses. He just kept a close eye on himself and didn't keep him, he didn't keep him. Oh, this stupid guy.
"Let's go back and have a good rest first, and take office together tomorrow." Liu Jing found that he liked this wise and foolish brother more and more.
.........
In the evening, after dinner, Liu Jing was sitting in the room while reading books. He liked reading the shop very much in his previous life. Now, he has a deeper understanding after revisiting it.
At this time, a knock on the door came from the yard. Liu Jing put down the book, raised his ears, and listened carefully. The door opened, and only heard Xiaobao asking, "Who are you looking for?"
"I am from the Dow Business Company, and my master ordered me to send a letter."
Liu Jing got up and walked to the yard. At the gate of the yard was the Manager Li, whom he knew, and he also saw Liu Jing, took out a letter and presented it to Liu Jing respectfully, "Mr. Jing, this is a letter from my master."
Liu Jing thought it was an invitation, but found it was a letter. He took it and asked, "Where is your master?"
"Report to Mr. Jing, my master rushed back to Chaisang in the afternoon."
This news stunned Liu Jing. He was fine when he broke up at noon, so he rushed back to Chaisang in the afternoon. What happened?
Liu Jing pondered for a while and asked, "Is it that something happened to Chaisang?"
Manager Li received Tao Zhan's order in advance and did not allow him to speak nonsense, but he did not say some of the words, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart. Manager Li hesitated for a moment, but he still hesitated to reveal a little.
"This afternoon, my master received a brocade book. I heard it was an invitation book. After reading the brocade book, the master immediately decided to return to Chaisang."
It was actually a brocade invitation letter, which was not something that ordinary people could do. Liu Jing asked again: "Who gave the brocade letter?"
Manager Li shook his head, "I heard from the master's maid. We don't know who it is."
Liu Jing thought about it, and perhaps there was an explanation in the letter, so he nodded and smiled, "Thank you, Manager Li, for your special trip."
Manager Li said goodbye and left. Liu Jing took the letter into the room. He sat down and pulled out the letter paper. A line of beautiful and elegant small words appeared in front of him.
Gong Jing:
When the man received this letter, I had already left Fancheng by boat and was rushing to Chaisang. I am really sorry. I originally planned to invite you to have a drink again at noon the day after tomorrow, but something happened, which forced me to decide to return to Chaisang temporarily.
I am also very sorry and I am very sorry. I hope my husband can understand my departure and do not think that I am a dishonest person.
I am responsible for auditing the account books of local commercial banks in my family. It is the end of the year and the beginning of the year, and it is the beginning of the account registration of local commercial banks. Maybe it will be very busy, but it will be one month early and two months later. I will go back to Fancheng again and ask you for a drink.
As I put down my pen, I suddenly remembered that I agreed to attend the banquet, but I didn't say the time. So, the invitation in two months should not be considered a breach of contract.
Thinking that he had not breached the contract, his guilt immediately eased a little, and patted his chest, glad that he had not decided which tavern to go to at that time.
I hope you will take care of me, looking forward to the day of goodbye
Chaisang Tao Zhan Jing
