A single stone ginseng will be placed in the inner courtyard of the back hall.
Zhang Cheng was trying to beat his adoptive son Zhang Chengfang with his military stick because he led a group of scouts into the mountains to hunt tigers without authorization. However, he saw a boy soldier with the same stature stepping out and interceding for Zhang Chengfang, willing to be punished together with Zhang Chengfang.
Facing Zhang Cheng's deep voice, he showed no fear. He knelt on the ground and reported loudly: "Shi Jintai, captain of the first team of the Boys' Battalion, pays homage to the commander-in-chief!"
"Shi Jintai? I have remembered you. Since you are willing to be punished together with Zhang Chengfang, you can go to the martial arts hall to receive your punishment at noon tomorrow."
As soon as Zhang Cheng finished speaking, the boy soldiers who had just brought in the dead tiger knelt on the ground and said in unison: "Everyone in the boy camp is united in sharing rewards and punishments. We are willing to accept the punishment of military sticks with Commander Zhang."
"Yo ho!"
Zhang Cheng looked at the scouts kneeling in front of him, feeling happy and angry at the same time.
I am happy that all the young sergeants in the Tongzi camp can work together, so that they can achieve great things in the future; but I am angry that they do not know the depth and dare to kidnap the Shangguan with a common punishment. How can such a disobedient thing be condoned!
"You don't know good from evil. I won't argue with you today. From now on, if someone intercedes for Zhang Chengfang, I will add twenty military sticks and hit Zhang Chengfang on him.
Lin Fangping, have you written it down?" Zhang Cheng shouted angrily.
All the scouts realized that no one dared to mention the same reward and punishment again. They were not afraid of getting slapped with military sticks, but everyone knew that Zhang Cheng always meant what he said. If he kept nagging, Zhang Chengfang would really get away with it.
He was hit with a military stick and had to retreat in despair.
After everyone retreated, Lin Fangping plucked up the courage and asked: "Commander, are you really going to beat these twenty soldiers with batons tomorrow?"
"Hmph, if he can't even stand up to twenty army sticks, why should he be a soldier of his grandma's army?"
"But Mr. Chengfang was also filial, so he led the Tongziying to hunt tigers. Will such punishment chill the hearts of Mr. Chengfang and the soldiers of the Tongziying?" Lin Fangping looked worried.
Sex, in fact, he was taking the opportunity to plead for Zhang Chengfang.
"Cheng Fang is indeed a good young man, but his temperament is a bit wild and too strong, which is not the way to be a general. If I don't take the opportunity to kill his wild nature, I may suffer big losses in the future.
What's more, he led the scouts to hunt tigers without authorization and easily put himself in danger. Isn't he blameless? If he is not punished today, he will be harmed!"
Suddenly, Zhang Cheng stared at Lin Fangping with his eyes wide open and said: "This is my commander's military order. Although Zhang Chengfang is my adopted son, he is just a boy soldier in the army. From today on, he is no longer allowed to be called a boy."
"Master."
"Here!"
"Go and find someone to peel off this tiger skin properly!"
"Here!"
…………
In the afternoon of the second day, Zhang Chengfang and Shi Jintai were lying face down on the bed.
"Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt!"
"Are you two guilty?"
"Cheng Fang is guilty! Shi Jintai is guilty."
“Where is the sin?”
Zhang Cheng asked this, Zhang Chengfang and Shi Jintai were silent for a while.
"Zhang Chengfang, as the leader of the Tongzi Camp, you should know how to care for your subordinates, and you must think deeply and thoughtfully when encountering problems. You must not be careless and negligent, putting your colleagues in danger. Today, we are hunted by a tiger. It is because of insufficient planning that our Tongzi Camp was devastated.
Seven people were injured, do you know your guilt?"
Zhang Chengfang remained silent, obviously feeling guilty. After a moment, he whispered: "Zhang Chengfang is guilty!"
"Are you guilty or guilty? If you are guilty, tell me loudly." Zhang Cheng asked sharply.
I heard Zhang Chengfang shouting loudly: "Zhang Chengfang knows his crime!"
A line of tears flowed from the corner of Zhang Chengfang's eyes.
Zhang Cheng ignored him, turned to Shi Jintai next to him, and said in a deep voice: "Shi Jintai, you are a righteous man and are willing to suffer the same punishment as Zhang Chengfang. This is not a bad thing. However, since you have joined the army, you should know the importance of military orders.
Military law is so strict that it cannot be carried out without an order, but it must be carried out immediately when an order is given.
How can you easily interfere in the matter of rewarding merit and punishing demerits?
I am giving you a small punishment today, I hope you can take it as a warning, know how to obey orders and abide by the law in the future, and think twice before doing anything!"
"Shi Jintai knows, thank you, Commander-in-Chief, for your teachings."
It was only then that Zhang Cheng said softly: "The most important thing about a person's ability to make no mistakes is that he knows his mistakes and can correct them. There is no greater good. Although there are only more than thirty people in your boys' camp, the important thing is that they are all teenagers like you.
I have great expectations for you and others. As the saying goes, only with deep love can we bear deep responsibility. Today's punishment is really because I hope you can learn a lesson and avoid suffering a big loss in the future, which you regret too late."
After Zhang Cheng finished speaking, he looked at Shi Jintai and continued to ask: "Shi Jintai, I will accept you as my second adopted son in advance, are you willing?"
"Jin Tai is willing, Shi Jin Tai is willing!"
"Okay, from today on, you will change your name to Zhang Jintai."
After Zhang Cheng finished speaking, he looked at the two of them and said, "You two will rest peacefully in my house for now. After you recover from your injuries, you will take Tongziying to Chicheng to find me."
…………
"Falling snow brings sunny skies, and auspicious snow heralds a good harvest!"
In the back hall of the Chicheng General Office, Zhang Cheng looked at the clear sky after the snow and said.
Yesterday, Zhang Cheng, escorted by Lin Fangping and other guards, picked up the Liu sisters and returned to the Chicheng General Office. Today coincided with the heavy snow season, and there was a heavy snowfall from midnight to midnight.
The entire General Office was covered in silvery white. Fortunately, after the heavy snow stopped, a sunny sun began to shine in the western sky. Against the background of the sun, the patches of silver appeared even more dazzling.
"Peng!"
A snowball flew over and hit Zhang Cheng on the back of the head. The snowflakes flew and fell on his neck and melted instantly, but the icy chill spread through his skin throughout his body.
"Giggle..."
A burst of laughter like silver bells came from behind, but Zhang Cheng remained motionless. "Whoosh" a snowball flew towards him. Zhang Cheng dodged at the same time to avoid the snowball, and he turned around and flew back.
"Ouch!" exclaimed.
"Miss...Miss..."
Screaming again and again, Ji Xuanzhu was thrown to the snow by Zhang Cheng.
In the white snow, Zhang Cheng hugged Ji Xuanzhu and rolled on it. The pure falling snow suddenly became very messy.
"you are bullying me!"
Zhang Cheng looked at Ji Xuanzhu under him, raised the corner of his mouth, and said: "But first you use the snow ball to attack me, who is bullying whom?"
"I don't care, you're the one bullying me!"
"Humph, you still dare to speak harshly, let's see how I punish you."
"Well... you can't... the girls... um... are watching..."
Zhang Cheng stood up and pulled Ji Xuanzhu up, and another princess hugged her to his chest. Ji Xuanzhu's pretty face turned red, her two small hands clenched into fists, and she beat him on the chest, saying: "
You are crazy, let the girls see you!"
"What are you afraid of? Why don't you just kiss me on the mouth?"
After saying that, he glanced sideways at Yu Rui and Xiu Yue who had just run over, and then said: "It's more intense than this. Both of her little girls have seen it. Are they still afraid of this?"
"oops!"
Ji Xuanzhu let out a sweet cry, and then buried his shy and red face in Zhang Cheng's chest.
