Amidst the soft clicking sound, a person strode forward from far to near under the guidance of the soldiers.
As soon as the figure appeared in the corridor, Wang Zheng looked around and couldn't help but secretly praise him in his heart.
Just looking at this good leather bag that comes standard with celebrities from the Three Kingdoms, I already have a lot of expectations in my heart.
He was a young man in his early twenties, with a powdery face, handsome features, and piercing eyes. Although he seemed to have traveled a long way, he was covered in dust, but he could not hide the elegant and majestic look between his brows.
.
When the young man walked to the pavilion, the moment their eyes met, Wang Zheng made a judgment in his mind.
This person is definitely not a commoner!
Even the average kid from a poor family might not have eyes like his.
Even though the other party was restraining himself, Wang Zheng, with his extraordinary eyes, still saw the restrained confidence and pride in those eyes.
That is almost unruly self-confidence and untamable pride!
In this troubled world, to be able to cultivate such a superior attitude among the younger generation...
Even if it is not a wealthy family with prosperous bells and prosperity, it must still be a noble family of country gentlemen who have no worries about food and clothing.
Looking down casually, Wang Zheng became more sure of his judgment when he saw the other party's clothes.
A year passed, and he went from a homeless refugee who had nothing to eat, to a General Tiangong who now owns half a county and has tens of thousands of people under his command. Even though he doesn't care much about his personal enjoyment, as a high-ranking person, Wang Zheng's daily life has also changed a lot.
big.
Nowadays, what he eats and lives in daily life is not only luxurious, but also refined to a level far superior to that of most people. And his vision and knowledge are also different from what they used to be.
Although the other party's green shirt was stained and somewhat messy and unclean due to dust, Wang Zheng could still tell at a glance that its workmanship and materials were exquisite.
While Wang Zheng was sizing up the Confucian scholar, the other party was also quietly observing Wang Zheng secretly and making an evaluation in his mind.
Although he has been paying attention to Wang Zheng and his army these days, and has heard a lot of news about it, when he actually met him face to face, the young man still had the same reaction as most people did when they first saw Wang Zheng...
Indeed...too young?
The young man felt a little emotional. It was very rare for such a young man to have tens of thousands of troops, even for the Yellow Turban bandits who could easily gather a crowd.
What's more, the young people who have been paying attention know better that the Yellow Turban bandits under Wang Zheng's command and others...
But it's very different.
I don’t know how this guy managed to train so many elite soldiers and make them desperate?
While thinking in his mind, the young man did not dare to be too negligent. After all, he had undergone drastic changes not long ago, and his current character and state of mind were much better than before.
As the young man took the initiative to bow and salute, he spoke first: "I'm not a sycophant. I've seen General Tiangong face to face."
What? No?
Wang Zheng was startled by this unfamiliar and fresh vocabulary, and looked at the young man with some suspicion.
Is this a self-proclaimed name or a name?
Seeing the confusion and inquiry in Wang Zheng's eyes, the young man curled his lips, a strange expression appeared on his face, and took the initiative to explain:
"The Analects of Confucius Gongye Chang says: Yong Ye is benevolent but not sycophantic."
"The sycophant is eloquent"
Oh, that's how it is.
Wang Zheng suddenly realized it first, and then he woke up and his face turned red.
No eloquence?
I see you have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth!
This wave of injuries came so unexpectedly that Wang Zheng was ashamed and angry. He forced himself to suppress his ups and downs of emotions. He frowned and stared at the young man for a while, while the other person was calm and composed, guessing the intention of the other person's move.
By calling yourself such a cold person, are you trying to embarrass me?
There were not many ancient people who called themselves "fool", "I" or "I" based on the scribe's dress.
Naturally, Wang Zheng would not suffer a loss due to his lack of education.
It shouldn't be so unwise...
While shaking his head secretly, he glanced at the other person again. When he saw the arrogance between his eyebrows, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind and he guessed the truth.
This kid... is so proud.
Like a phoenix that never bows its head, it insists on holding its head high toward the sky.
In his opinion, any self-effacing words are demeaning to himself. Even facing a general like himself, he is not willing at all!
If you don't call yourself stupid, you think you are smart; if you don't call yourself inferior or humble, you don't want to be humbled...
Wang Zheng expected it well.
Before entering the mansion, young man Q originally planned to call himself "boy".
But after seeing Wang Zheng himself, even though he knew that he was young, the young man did not expect that he was actually several years younger than himself, so he had to temporarily change his name.
interesting...
Let me see if you are really proud or fake...
Wang Zheng, who guessed the truth, was dumbfounded and suddenly had the idea of teasing.
He snorted coldly at first, his face as cold as frost, and at the same time secretly issued instructions through the system. Then he saw the soldiers on the side stood up directly, and shouted to the young man with a ferocious face:
"You, a Confucian scholar, why don't you kneel down when you see General Tiangong?!"
At this time, the young man actually felt a little regretful. He was just proud, not stupid.
Seeing Wang Zheng's face suddenly turn gloomy, he was secretly regretting his own Meng Lang.
The first time they met, they made each other angry...
No matter whether the purpose of this trip is successful or not, the safety of my family may be at risk...
This move is inappropriate!
But when the personal guard said such threatening words, his pride was immediately aroused, and the regret he just felt was immediately forgotten.
He smiled casually, straightened his back, and said in the same excited voice:
"Although Bu Ni is a scholar, he has read "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu and knows that generals have the so-called Five Virtues!"
"If someone comes here with good intentions and rejects them instead of welcoming them, this is unwise."
"Advertise widely and ask for talents. If a scholar comes here but is not treated politely, this is untrustworthy."
"I even heard that General Tiangong was revolting. Women and children were massacred in Zhao County, and all the surrendered soldiers were killed in Guangrao. This is unkind!"
"General Tiangong didn't say anything, but your soldiers rushed forward rashly. This shows that military discipline is lax and this is not strict!"
"If General Tiangong instigates..." At this point, the young man laughed loudly: "That is an attempt to use the bravery of a soldier to intimidate me, a scholar who is not only a pen and inkstone..."
"It's quite a brave decision!"
"Be bold!"
Although the personal guard was vulgar and illiterate, he probably understood the meaning of these remarks. It was actually a belittling and scolding of General Tiangong, and he couldn't help but become furious.
This time, it was no longer the order of Wang Zheng, but he strode forward directly, and with a clang, the sword was unsheathed!
"How dare you be so presumptuous!"
Glancing at the bodyguard with disdain, and completely ignoring the sharp blade against his neck, the young man showed no fear and continued to hit him: "That's right..."
"Bu Ni also came from Qingzhou. He heard that the general had just conquered Linzi, so he immediately stabbed his ally Xu Fang in the back and accepted his tribe..."
