The staff member with a mustache who looked like Maitreya Buddha rolled his eyes a few times and said with a smile:

"It's nothing more than the four words: courtesy first and then fighting."

He is full of conspiracies and evil thoughts, and of course he knows how to figure out the deeper meaning of his own words.

Today, Guo Xuan came to Helan Pass to sit in the Chinese army's tent. What was his purpose?

It’s definitely not about rewards based on merit, reviewing the guards!

You must know that the four princes and eight generals of Liaodong have been rooted in Baishan and Heishui for sixty years!

Zhaoyun Marquis Changxing passed away not long ago, and now the Marquis Mansion is entirely supported by Shentu Yuan, who came to marry him.

Most of the domineering old men were not convinced and seemed not to take their foreign surnames seriously.

The past two years have been so chaotic that it looks like the tree will fall and the hozen will scatter.

The other two military princes were just outsiders who acted according to the prevailing circumstances. They were caught between Liaodong and the imperial court. No one dared to offend them, and they were well versed in the art of protecting oneself wisely.

As for the eight great generals, four of them belong to Helan Pass.

It can be said that today's white mountains and black waters are actually the Marquis of Dingyang sitting at the top, who speaks decisively with Chrysostom!

If that young Qianhu from Fusi, Beizhen, really wants to be the Qingtian Grand Master who observes the sentiments of the people personally.

So what should we do about the dirty things under the mess of Liaodong and the dirty and dirty work that cannot be seen in the light?

Many audacious and secretive deeds, once exposed.

Even if there is an iron certificate for the alchemy book in the Dingyanghou Mansion, it is inevitable that a clan will be exterminated!

Liang Zhong's mind changed rapidly, and he realized that at this moment, the Marquis's question was intentional.

It’s not only a way to attract others, but also a way to test your tone!

The Marquis of Dingyang wanted to see who among the frontier generals in the Helan Pass were loyal to the Guo family's military flag, and who were outsiders who relied on the imperial court!

"Liang Zhong is indeed quick to see opportunities and has a keen eye."

Guo Xuan narrowed his eyes and made eye contact with Liang Zhong sitting below, as if there was a tacit understanding.

If the Holy One were in power, he would never dare to think this way.

But the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and Liaodong and Tianjing are more than thousands of miles away. No matter how much blood and tears the muddy legs bear, and the bitterness of the humble life, it is difficult to fly into the East Palace.

What's more, I have guarded the border for the imperial court for sixty years and will stay in this bitter and cold place for most of my life.

Like other brothers, I have never enjoyed the tenderness of the Jiangnan water town.

Isn’t this the pleasure of having sole control over life and death?

Inexhaustible wealth in a few lifetimes can not only wear away the bravery and vigor of an iron-blooded military leader, but also dissolve the courtiers' awe of the law.

After all, it has been a long, long time since there has been a shocking case involving the execution of a founding hero who held a title.

"What is etiquette? What is military service?"

Like a mountain eagle, Guo Xuan's eyes were dark and sharp, and he swept across the Chinese army's tent calmly, taking in the faces of the generals.

"Giving money, martial arts, women, elixirs and magic weapons, heavenly materials and earthly treasures... giving them what they like, this is a gift.

Everyone has a temperament. Unless a sage, who can be selfless?"

Looking up and catching a glimpse of the change in Dingyang Hou's expression, Liang Zhong felt a chill in his heart and said seriously:

"If he refuses, he will make it clear that he does not want to betray the Marquis, nor does he want to discuss Conglong's relationship with the Marquis of Dingyang.

So... the mountains and valleys of Liaodong are surrounded by twelve green forest thieves.

They have always been lawless!

It’s not impossible to do such outrageous things as intercepting and killing imperial envoys and murdering officials!”

As soon as these words came out, the Chinese army's tent was completely silent, and all the generals in the pass were as silent as cicadas.

There was only the sound of the beast-gold charcoal in the copper basin, which heated up everyone's faces.

"Liang Zhong! You are so courageous! You are an adult sent by the imperial court and a new noble in the East Palace, but you dare to have evil thoughts!"

Bang!

Guo Xuan raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes, and slapped the big case with his palm, which made the turtle crane Yannian copper furnace jump and splash out a large number of sparks.

"Dong Jingtang! Get this guy for me, drag him outside the tent, and give him fifty lashes!

Take off your clothes and hang them on the flagpole and show them to the public for three days!"

"Take your orders!"

Dong Jingtang, who was as strong as a tiger, stood up and dragged Liang Zhong out without expression.

With his martial arts cultivation at the beginning of Zhen Gang, it is really easy to capture a staff member who can open up his Qi veins.

"Master Hou, please calm down. In fact, what Mr. Liang said... is not unreasonable.

We are the people of the imperial court in life, and the ghosts of the imperial court in death. We will be loyal to the saints from generation to generation!

But now that the emperor's throne is vacant and the prince has been overseeing the country for twenty years, the Eastern Palace has repeatedly used those humble and homeless people in recent years, which has made Huaixi's nobles and generals quite complain.

Lord Marquis, you and I are serving the saint and the Jing Dynasty, but we cannot accept the grievances of others casually!

Thousands of households in Fusi, Beizhen, are so strong that they are in the fifth rank. How can a little brat who has not yet reached the crown, holding a chicken feather as a command arrow, ride on our heads? It doesn't make sense!"

A strong general with a round face, big ears, a straight nose and a square mouth, and a waist ten inches wide spoke.

He was wearing a Suan Ni beast face armor, and he was sitting there like a black tower made of iron. His demeanor was very extraordinary.

"It turns out to be General Wei Rongwei!"

Guo Xuan's cold expression softened slightly, as if he was still angry. He coughed twice and said in a heavy tone:

"That guy Liang Zhong's words are outrageous and his behavior is shameless. He deserves to be punished!

The officers and soldiers in Helan Pass are all passionate men who serve the country with loyalty!

Counting from my father’s generation, I have been rooted in the white mountains and black waters, and have always guarded this bitter cold land!

Natural and man-made disasters! Bandits! The remnants of barbarians!

They all came through!

Which year is there no war? Which year is there no death? In other prefectures, during the New Year, every house hangs red lanterns high, but in Liaodong, the city is full of plainness, with ups and downs of sadness and joy!

I followed the saint to conquer the north and south. When I was trapped in Yingtian Mansion, I suffered more than ten wounds, but I still fought my way out of the siege!

A loyal heart can be learned from the sun and the moon!

Today, Liang Zhong dared to say in public that he wanted to intercept and kill the imperial envoy. Wouldn't this be disloyal to the prince and unfair to others!

If it weren't for the fact that he has made a lot of contributions, I should have chopped off his head just now!"

Guo Xuan glared angrily, and every word he spoke sounded loud and clear, like gold and iron colliding, emitting a sonorous sound.

"No one in Liaodong knows the sincerity of Lord Marquis!"

Wei Rong clasped his hands and bowed heavily.

The rest of the people in the big tent hurriedly echoed, and there were endless compliments, but I don’t know how many of them were true and how many of them were false.

When the beast-gold charcoal fire in the copper basin gradually extinguished, the soldiers who had been sitting down to eat wine left one by one.

Only the leftovers on the table were left, which had not yet been cleaned up, and Dong Jingtang, who was silent.

"Go and bring Liang Zhong in."

Guo Xuan's face was as dark as water and he raised his hand to give instructions.

Dong Jingtang, who was drinking alone, strode out of the military tent and lowered Liang Zhong, whose body was red and shivering from the cold, down to the flagpole.

Like a little chicken, he threw the person in front of the Marquis.

"Put on the robe! With your meager strength of three Qi channels, you can't withstand the severe cold of Helan Pass."

Guo Xuan casually threw the unblemished gold fur robe away from the big case. Liang Zhong's skin and tender flesh trembled. He took it with a smile, wrapped it around himself, and leaned against the edge of the copper basin to bake. Hands.

"Thank you, Lord Marquis, for the reward!"

Guo Xuan laughed and said:

"You guys, you even took advantage of me! That's all, just make up for the fifty lashes you received later!"

Liang Zhong's face showed a bitter expression, like an eggplant beaten by frost, and he hurriedly begged for mercy:

"Master Hou, are you really crazy?"

Guo Xuan's eyelids drooped and he said without any doubt:

"Military orders are like mountains and military laws are like iron!

If I tell you what I say, I will definitely do it!

When the time comes, let Jingtang do it as gently as possible."

Liang Zhong was about to cry, but he didn't dare to say anything. He looked at Dong Jingtang, who was tall and strong next to him. The latter grinned and geared up, as if he couldn't wait.
