The blond girl didn't wake up until nearly noon, and Lu Jing had just finished practicing. The two of them strolled down the street together, and finally came to the "Suming Building" and found a seat facing the street to drink tea.
There were not many customers in the store at this time. After the two chatted for a while, a young man with a strong and well-proportioned figure, a dark face, and clothes that looked like military uniforms walked up to them and politely handed them a name card.
When the two of them looked at it, they saw that the title card was written with the words "Jingyun, the Secretary and Colonel of the Anxi General Mansion under the rule of King Ding of the Great Chu". Because Lu Jing knew that the current Chu State was firmly against tattooing, he had a good impression of the Chu army, so he
He stood up and said, "It turns out to be General Jing. Why do you want to see us?"
Jing Yun looked embarrassed and said hurriedly: "Hi! Mr. Lu is too polite! How dare you use the word "general"?! You are not soldiers. If you think highly of me, just call me "Brother Jing"."
Lu Jing laughed and invited Jing Yun to sit down. Sylvia asked the waiter to bring Jing Yun a pot of tea.
Jing Yun thanked the blond girl, and then said: "I won't beat around the bush. The night before yesterday, my people were deeply impressed when they heard Mr. Lu's lecture, and they came to tell me that night. I did it myself last night.
I listened to this teahouse once, and to be honest, I was shocked by Mr. Lu’s talent and learning. I came to you today because I wanted to invite Mr. Lu to the “General Anxi Mansion” in Chu State. I believe that with your knowledge, Mr. Lu will become
There is no problem with being a diner in the General's Mansion. If you perform well in the future, you will most likely be entrusted with important tasks by the General."
Lu Jing was happy in his heart, but he thought of something again and asked: "Excuse me, where is the "Anxi General's Mansion"? If I go to seek refuge, where will I live?"
Jing Yun replied: "The "Anxi Army" of Chu State is stationed in the west of the border with Ting State. If Mr. Lu goes there, he will naturally not be placed on the front line from the beginning. He will only be stationed in the general's mansion three hundred miles away from the border.
Planning something."
"General Anxi's Mansion is only three hundred miles away from the Chu-Ting border? How far is it from here?" Lu Jing asked with some disappointment.
"From here? Hmm~~, probably not less than 4,500 miles." Jing Yun frowned.
"Four thousand five hundred miles! Oh my god! This is too far!" Lu Jing thought to himself. He didn't care that he traveled all over the world, but he really didn't want to give up Yan'er. Lu Jing liked the beautiful and fashionable classmate, and of course he liked Yan'er even more.
It brought him the ability to predict. But Yan'er was still studying. Lu Jing did not dare to ask Yan'er to give up her studies in Fengya City and leave or take her mother with him to the distant and dangerous border of Chu.
Qufu is not far from Fengya City, and it only takes half a day to ride a horse alone. Moreover, now that I have a free status, I can go back to Fengya City to meet her at any time. In the future, I may bring Yaner to live with her in Qufu, or even get married. If I
Going to the western border of Chu State, not only is it far away from Fengya City, but also I am afraid that after taking up a military position, I will not be able to go out at will. This is tantamount to giving up Yan'er, a God-given treasure. Moreover, there is also Ling Shuang.
Lu Jing said apologetically: "Brother Jing, I am very grateful for your respect for me. However, I have some unavoidable difficulties and cannot leave my hometown too far now. Therefore, I can only accept Brother Jing's kindness at the moment.
"
"Well..." Jing Yun was obviously disappointed: "In that case, even if I make friends with you two today, I'll treat you to a meal!"
"How is this possible? It's our turn to treat you to dinner!" The blond girl also liked Jing Yun's straightforwardness and politeness.
Lu Jing also said: "Yes, it's our turn to treat." Then he lowered his voice and said: "Boss Wang here likes me very much. If I pay for the food, he will probably only charge me the cost." Jing Yun
Hearing the laughter, Sylvia was also overjoyed.
Sylvia and Lu Jing ordered a table of sumptuous dishes. A beautiful girl waiter poured tea for the three of them with a smile, and then left. During this process, the girl waiter secretly glanced at the handsome Lu Jing several times.
and the strong Jing Yun.
The three of them chatted while eating, and the conversation was very speculative. Lu Jing and Sylvia kept asking about the situation of the Chu State and the Chu Army.
Lu Xi and Lu Xi listened with great interest to the interesting stories in the young army. But when Lu Jing asked Jing Yun about his views on the prospects of the war, Jing Yun did not answer directly. Instead, he showed a look of perseverance and said: "Anyone on the battlefield can
Things can happen. As soldiers, we can only serve and die loyally, regardless of the final victory or defeat!"
Lu Jing and Sylvia looked at each other, and both of them could tell that Jing Yun's words were actually very clear: he believed that it would be difficult for the Chu State to defeat the Tai State army! But there was a tragic feeling in these words.
The heroic spirit made the two of them sincerely respect each other.
At this time, two guys with rough skin, long black beards, and wearing official uniforms came to their table and sat down without saying hello. When Jing Yun saw these two people, he felt angry.
He let out a loud "hum".
One of the slightly taller men glanced sideways at Jing Yun, making a contemptuous "squeak" sound from the corner of his mouth, and then said to Lu Jing: "I am Yin Jian, a third-class military attache who is under the envoy of the Ting State to the State of Lu.
He pointed at his short and stocky companion and said, "This is my colleague, the third-class military attaché, Cui Ju."
Lu Jing and Sylvia were unhappy when they saw them behaving rudely. Now they learned that they were diplomats from the Tattoo Kingdom, and they were even more disgusted, so they ignored each other.
Yin Jian, who was slightly taller, continued: "I want to invite Mr. Lu to our Ting Kingdom, and I hope you won't shirk it." Then he glanced sideways at Jing Yun and said: "I know what this Jing is looking for, you can do it yourself.
Think clearly and don’t choose the wrong position!”
An angry look appeared on Jing Yun's face, his breathing began to deepen and lengthen, he raised his glass and took a big sip.
Sylvia stretched out her hand from under the table and put it on Lu Jing's leg, intending to make Lu Jing restrain himself from speaking. Lu Jing quietly squeezed the blonde girl's tender hand, then leaned close to her face and said softly: "I just said
I have already told Brother Jing Yun that I don’t want to be too far away from my hometown, so of course I won’t go to the Tsing Kingdom.”
Yin Jian snorted and said: "It is said that those who know the current affairs are heroes. I think Mr. Lu should know the current situation in the world. Sooner or later, the entire Zhongzhou Continent will be planted with the flag of the Tsing Kingdom. All those who fight against the Tsing Kingdom will only die.
That’s it! Therefore, the sooner you serve the Tsing Kingdom, the more opportunities you have for success and the less chance you have of being killed!”
Jing Yun said coldly: "Before the last moment, it's hard to predict who will win or lose! It's not like the Tattoo Army has never suffered defeats! You must have heard of it: In the two battles of Yi'an and Fanwu, the Tattoo Army
Continuous defeats, right?”
Yi'an and Fanwu are both place names of the State of Zhao. Twelve years ago, the Tsing Army fought against the Zhao Army led by Li Mu in these two places, and both ended in disastrous defeats. Everyone in Zhongzhou Continent knows about these two battles.
Yin Jian was furious when he heard this, and shouted loudly: "Then didn't Li Mu die in the end?! Even the monarch of Zhao became a prisoner of the Tattoo Army and died in prison! Every time the Zhao Army killed a Tattoo Army, the Tattoo Army eventually died.
Kill at least ten Zhao soldiers to take revenge, don't you know?!" He spoke very loudly, and every time he said a word, the wine in the glass on the table would shake for a while.
The short and stocky Cui Ju suddenly made a sinister voice and said: "In the past ten years or so, Chu's sick and weak army has never won a battle against the tattoo army. We have killed more than one million Chu soldiers!"
