"As for Brother Duanmu's request to find support, I am actually preparing to contact the clan elders in the clan. In order to protect the king and the people that Doctor Fan values, they will definitely do their best."
Turning around and looking at the crowd, Peng Zhi said with a sincere look.
"If Prime Minister Peng Yi agrees to my request, I will definitely ask the King and Dr. Fan for credit in the future." Duanmu Shuliang's old voice was filled with excitement.
Zhao Qing was not surprised that Peng Zhi could quickly contact the Peng clan elders. If Peng Zhi did not have such ability, Duanmu Shuliang would not have had to rush to Peng's mansion early in the morning to discuss related matters.<
/p>
But now it seems that their method of contact should have come at a considerable price. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have officially agreed to it now, and received Duanmu Shuliang’s solemn thanks.
Once again he took the porcelain vase containing the elixir and the bronze armor from the servant. Peng Zhi's face was calm and no longer had the previous look of reluctance. He handed the porcelain vase and the armor to Zhao Qing and Zheng Dan respectively.
"Peng Yizai, I wonder what the strength of the clan elders that your Peng family may come to help? When will they arrive?"
After the fire bronze armor appeared, Duanmu Shuliang felt the rising temperature in the room, and then asked.
The strength and arrival time of the reinforcements determine what plan he should make to deal with Wu's secret guards.
"Before tomorrow night, we should be able to reach Chungquanyi. I don't know their specific strength level. I only know that they are old people of my grandfather and great-grandfather's generation. There are six of them in total, and each of them is far more powerful.
Better than me."
"Earlier, I intercepted your Duanmu family's caravan and forcibly bought the spiritual elixir for my late father. In fact, it was also intended to promote my filial piety, so as to gain the support of the elders and give me the opportunity to break through the realm and be promoted to a third-class sergeant.
”
"I see. I hope the elders of Yi Zai are strong enough to deal with the Hongshang Sword Master yesterday." Uncle Duanmu stroked his white beard and nodded.
Is it really a show? No wonder he intercepted the caravan in public. Zhao Qing frowned. Is Peng Chu revealing such secrets about his character to provide a handle and gain trust?
The main world has a vast territory and a large population. The official hierarchy of the Yue Kingdom is divided into twelve levels from top to bottom.
Doctors are divided into three levels: upper doctor, middle doctor, and lower doctor. Among them, the upper doctor is the minister, and the sixteen princes are also equivalent to the title of the upper doctor. This is different from the situation in some countries where the ministers have higher titles than the upper doctor.
.
Among them, Sikong, Situ, Sima, Sikou, and Si Nong, the senior officials, are also known as the "Five Officials" and are the most powerful officials in the Yue Kingdom.
Sergeants are divided into nine levels: first-class sergeant, second-class sergeant, third-class sergeant, fourth-class sergeant...seventh-class corporal, eighth-class corporal, and ninth-class corporal.
As the governor of another county, Peng Ju was promoted to the rank of fourth-class sergeant. After being promoted, he became the third-class sergeant. He was no longer the third-class sergeant. It was a big jump in class.
Yue is a country that favors martial arts. In many cases, its official titles need to reach a certain level of cultivation before they can be awarded.
For example, a doctor above the rank of sergeant usually needs to enter the realm of lower six qi to be able to hold the position.
But it is not completely limited by the official's level of cultivation. For example, Fan Li, one of the five great officials, according to Zhao Qing's knowledge, should only have a level of cultivation in the lower six realms. However, his status in the Yue Kingdom is second only to Gou Jian.
I am still above the great Sima Zhu Jiying in the upper six realms.
Third-class sergeants are generally held by top talents in Gang Jin or Hua Jin. According to Peng Zhi, he just wanted to use the power within the clan to recommend and promote himself in order to gain opportunities for promotion.
"Actually, I have a question," Peng Zhi rolled his eyes and asked: "After all, Wu State is the superior state of our Yue State. When the time comes, if we want to counterattack the secret guards of Wu State, Miss Zheng will be indispensable for this matter.
Cooperation."
Everyone was sure that the enemy would not bring in reinforcements like they did because the secret guards of Wu State did not want their colleagues to come and take credit. But if his life was really threatened, he would not be so stupid as not to run away and ask for help.
It is better to have most of the credit shared by others than to have zero credit or even risk your life.
From this perspective, if you want to counterattack the opponent, you must have at least several times the strength gap. If you fail to counterattack successfully, you will face greater dangers.
"What do you mean? If your clan leader really comes, I will cooperate with each other." Zheng Dan knocked on the heavy fire bronze armor and replied.
"Miss Zheng, what I mean specifically is whether the explosive method you used yesterday can continue to be used. If not, the clan elders should adopt a strict defensive approach, with your safety as the top priority, and then try again
Consider whether you can successfully annihilate the enemy."
Peng Zhi paused, turned to look at Zhao Qing, and then asked: "Miss Zhao, I wonder which sect you studied under? Can you tell me more about it? Our Peng family also has a certain understanding of the seven sects of Kuaiji.
We can cooperate well."
Does this identify me as a disciple of the Seven Great Sects of Kuaiji Mountain? Zhao Qing pondered in his mind whether to reveal his inheritance.
Speaking of which, I haven’t agreed to help Zheng Dan yet. Why does Peng Zhi think that I will participate?
He probably wanted to curry favor with his future "princess," so he assumed that others thought the same way.
Zhao Qing pinched her fingers, thinking that even if she helped Zheng Dan to fight against the enemy, it would be for the sake of their friendship, not because of her identity.
Suddenly, she heard an old voice that was as thin as a mosquito buzzing, but extremely clear. Zhao Qing recognized it as Duanmu Shuliang's voice, and it was obviously a "sound transmission into secret" technique he had used.
Law.
I heard Duanmu Shuliang whisper softly: "Peng Zhi is a person who values reputation and interests, but he gave away so many things at once, and also exposed his own shortcomings. It is obvious that he has a big agenda. I suspect that he may have a problem. You two should stay vigilant and don't
Reveal your true situation to him."
"It can be used once, but it will only last half as long as yesterday at most." Apparently, Zheng Dan also heard Duanmu Shuliang's message and deliberately concealed his situation.
"The hidden sect, it's not convenient to disclose it, so just treat me as an ordinary person." Then, Zhao Qing replied.
"Thank you both for the news. Brother Duanmu, I'm going to activate the contact circle and ask the clan elders for help." After hearing the answers from the two men, Peng Zhi's forehead jumped and he grabbed a handful of the linen robe on his body.
Quickly walk to the back of the hall.
At this moment, a skilled servant hurriedly ran in and said in a low voice: "Master Yizhai, Master Yuwei is asking for an audience outside, saying that he wants to ask you for an explanation."
Yu Wei is one of the officials in charge of the army in the county, and his rank is one level lower than that of the Yizhai. The Yu Wei of Chung Quan Yi is a fifth-class sergeant, and should have been under the management of Peng Chu.
However, he also has clan power similar to Peng's behind him, and is not a complete subordinate of Peng Zhi.
Lieutenant Yu's son was killed by the bandits you let go, and now Lieutenant Yu is here. Zhao Qing smiled with some gloating, looked at Duanmu Shuliang who was also smiling next to him, and thought to himself: <
/p>
When you leave Peng Mansion later, you can ask about the bamboo slips in the caravan on the way. It is best to find out the origin of the volume "Lianshan Yi".
