Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 430 Kindness
In Datang, people all pay attention to the four great kindnesses.

The first is the kindness of parenting, the second is the kindness of the boss, the third is the kindness of husband and wife, and the fourth is the kindness of saving lives.

For people in this era, these four kindnesses are very great kindnesses, which must be kept in the heart and repaid with a lifetime.

What Gao Ming gave to Huzi and Xue Rengui was the second kind—the grace of knowledge and encounter.

When Huzi was in Pucheng, he couldn't even eat enough to eat. He even attacked Gao Ming and Liu Bing, and killed Liu Bing's horse. If he met other people, Huzi's fate would be difficult to say.

Fortunately, he met Gao Ming.

Undoubtedly, Gao Ming kept him because he saw his innate supernatural power and found it useful, but Huzi didn't think about it.

For Huzi, Gao Ming not only made him an official, fed him well, but also brought his mother to live in Furong Garden, and even married him a wife. This is a great kindness!
Huzi's mind is not very flexible, but he is a person who knows how to be grateful, so he will try his best to protect Gao Ming in order to repay Gao Ming's kindness to him.

And Xue Rengui's brain is much smarter than Huzi's, but his thinking at this time is no different from Huzi's.

"His Royal Highness has treated me with a great kindness. Whether it is for public or private purposes, I will repay this kindness, even if it means breaking my body to pieces!"

Thinking of this, the gaze in his eyes suddenly became firm.

And Gao Ming has been watching Xue Rengui since he got on the tank, seeing his expression change from joy and excitement to calm and firm, he nodded with a smile.

"It's really worthy of being a famous general in history. Although it's just a piece of rough jade now, it has revealed something extraordinary!"

Thinking of this, Gao Ming immediately took out a book from his arms and handed it to Xue Rengui.

"Rengui, I have a book here, take it and read it!"

"what?"

Seeing that Gao Ming suddenly handed him a book, Xue Rengui was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses and hurriedly bowed to Gao Ming.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness!"

After finishing speaking, he took the book respectfully and looked down.

When he saw the title of the book, his eyes widened.

""Li's Art of War 36 Strategies"?"

In this era, the art of war can be said to be the most precious thing.

For literati, as long as they have money, the Four Books and Five Classics can still be bought from the market, but for generals, the art of war is very rare.

Because the art of war is already a "dangerous item" in this era of cold weapons, the ruler does not allow sales in the world in order to maintain his rule.

Therefore, there are only two ways for generals to obtain the art of war.

First, relying on inheritance, the ancestors were military generals, and the art of war was passed down in their hands.

The second is to worship a master, and the master teaches.

Xue Rengui's ancestors had military generals, so some art of war has been handed down, so he has read military books such as "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and "Sun Bin's Art of War".

However, this is the first time he has seen the "Li's Art of War · 36 Strategies" in his hand!

"This...this is..."

For Xue Rengui, Gao Ming's move was already regarded as a kindness of cultivation, so at this moment he suddenly became excited again.

"His Royal Highness has shown me the kindness of knowing you first, and then the kindness of cultivating me. How should I, Xue Rengui, repay this kindness!"

Seeing Xue Rengui's excited face, Gao Ming smiled and nodded towards him.

"Okay, you can go to the roof of the car to read the book first, so you won't be able to read it later when it gets dark. As for other things, we can talk about it after you finish the book."

"Yes, His Royal Highness!"

Xue Rengui agreed, and climbed onto the roof of the car with the book, while Gao Ming raised his chin at Huzi.

"Okay, go tell Hou Junji, let's continue to set off!"

"Yes!"

Following Gao Ming's order, the tank started slowly again, and under the guidance of Hou Junji, it headed towards the nearest port.

After more than an hour, Gao Ming and the others finally arrived at the beach. Hou Junji got off his horse, and then cupped his hands towards Gao Ming who was on top of the tank.

"General, we have arrived. Not far ahead is the only port here. Duke Xun and the others set off by boat from here!"

Hearing Hou Junji's voice, Gao Ming nodded immediately.

"Well, I see, Huzi, take someone to see if Zhang Sizheng and Hegan Chengji have arrived."

"Yes!"

Huzi agreed, and then rode forward and ran forward. Seeing this scene, Hou Junji blinked suspiciously.

"General, this is..."

Gao Mingjue didn't need to hide it from him at this time, so he smiled at him.

"It's like this. I set off from Chang'an with a large army, passed through Luoyang and Taiyuan, and then arrived here, but my warship set off from Luoyang and came here along the Grand Canal. Why? Don't Duke Lu know this something?"

"Uh……"

Now Hou Junji was dumbfounded, and his heart was full of resentment towards Zhang Liang.

"Good Zhang Liang, I have always regarded you as a brother, but you have kept everything from me!"

Hou Junji didn't know, in fact, Zhang Liang had betrayed him in front of Li Shimin a long time ago, if he knew, he didn't know what he would think.

But at this moment, he was still immersed in the sadness of being let down by his "good brother". Facing Gao Ming's question, he opened and closed his lips several times before shaking his head bitterly.

"The old minister really didn't know about this matter, so he didn't send someone to protect him. Please forgive me, General!"

"Hahahaha!"

As soon as Hou Junji finished speaking, Gao Ming burst out laughing, and waved his hands at him while laughing.

"Mr. Lu Guo's words are serious. Those who don't know are not guilty, and I don't even know whether the ship has arrived or not!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Hou Junji's complexion became better, and he quickly bowed his hands to Gao Ming again.

"Thank you General!"

At this moment, Hou Junji no longer dared to underestimate Gao Ming, he even felt that the one standing in front of him was not Gao Ming, but Li Shimin who had sent troops south.

The same is outstanding, the same command is sure, and the same makes him unpredictable...

Just when Hou Junji fell into memories again, a sound of horseshoes came from not far away.

Gao Ming looked up and saw a small group of cavalry running towards him. The leader was Huzi riding a lion horse and holding two sledgehammers.

When he was dozens of steps away from Gao Ming, Hu Zi stopped, and then walked towards Gao Ming with two generals in silver armor and red cloaks behind their backs.

After coming in front of Gao Ming, Hu Zi cupped his fists towards Gao Ming.

"His Royal Highness, someone brought it!"

As soon as Hu Zi finished speaking, the two people standing behind him came out immediately, and then saluted Gao Ming with fists together.

"The commander of the left cavalry guard, Tongzhi Hegan Chengji, has seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"The commander of the right cavalry guard, Zhang Sizheng, has seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Looking at the two people saluting to him, a smile appeared on Gao Ming's face.

"Since the two of you are here, it seems that my warship should have arrived. If so, let's go!"

"Yes!"
