Daming kill

Chapter 98 Depressed Zuo Menggeng
When Li Ping and Zhao Jin were talking about Zuo Menggeng, Zuo Menggeng and his old man Zuo Liangyu were also talking about Li Ping.

The difference is that Zuo Menggeng is basically being scolded.

"The purpose of asking you to control the generals is to allow you to experience more before I die, so that you can understand what is the way of dominance. But look at what you have done these days. In addition to putting on airs, you have also learned What. I'm really pissed off." Zuo Liangyu continued angrily.

Zuo Menggeng, who was standing in front of Zuo Liangyu and listened respectfully, was quite unconvinced, but he still comforted him in a low voice: "Father, please calm down, father, please calm down. Why is it so reckless?"

It was fine if Zuo Menggeng didn't say anything, but Zuo Liangyu was even more angry when he said that.

His eyes were wide open, and the teacup in his hand fell to the table with a bang, and the somewhat hunched body on the chair straightened up involuntarily, and he loudly shouted:
"You still don't understand! How could I have such an angry son like you? It's useless. I hired so many teachers to teach you to read, but I don't know where you have read this book. Even I, a vulgar person And you know how to buy bones with a thousand pieces of gold, why don’t you understand anything?”

Zuo Menggeng's face was reddish when he was scolded, and he seemed to be unable to hang on. He couldn't help but talk back: "Father, what did I do wrong? Yesterday I also summoned Li Pingna alone, and spoke nicely Treating each other, and talking for a long time. If you talk about polite and virtuous corporals, I feel that I have done it."

"Then why don't you invite the generals to get acquainted with him? Why don't you stay by your side to listen? Why don't you show your favor to him in front of everyone?" Zuo Liangyu sneered.

"We have long been kind to him. We not only added officials to him, but also sent Zhuangzi, soldiers and horses, and property. Li Ping was only a small soldier, so he should have been grateful. Don't let him breed arrogance and mess up the distinction between superiority and inferiority?" Zuo Menggeng said stubbornly.

Hearing what Zuo Menggeng said, and looking at his stubborn expression, Zuo Liangyu shook his head helplessly while suppressing the fire.

He knew that his bastard really didn't understand the way to be a general, and he was just playing with his young temper.

He couldn't help pointing at Zuo Menggeng and said, "You! You are so confused."

Then he angrily went to the table to find the bowl of tea, took another sip, and then said patiently:

"Li Ping was born as a soldier, but he saved your wife's life. Li Ping was born as a soldier, but he was able to escape from the siege of several times the enemy army. Li Ping was born as Xiaoping, but he and Zhao Jin were able to get together Gather hundreds of defeated troops and travel thousands of miles without chaos. Can you find another soldier like this!

Since we retreated to Xiangyang, there are not many close elites left, and most of the troops capable of fighting on the left and right are from the bandits of the green forest. It is dangerous to rule the weak and the strong.Cultivating wings to strengthen our army is the top priority of my father and son, don't you understand this truth?
Not to mention the generous treatment of loyal and brave soldiers to demonstrate the generosity and righteousness of my father and son, so that the army is willing to follow and die bravely.

Then Li Ping was born in the army, he knows loyalty, he is more proficient in military training, and he happens to be soft-spoken, isn't he the best candidate for Da Jia to win over and bring him to his side.

But look what you've done.

When Li Ping made the decision to protect the lord, he hesitated and procrastinated. If I hadn't made the decision in time, how many soldiers' hearts would you have lost?Today, let me remedy it for you again, when will you be able to make things happen. "

After Zuo Liangyu finished speaking, Zuo Menggeng's face became even redder, and his expression became unnatural.

Seeing this, Zuo Liangyu sighed, knowing that his son's skin was too thin to speak too seriously, so he stopped and went to get some tea again.

Unexpectedly, Zuo Menggeng murmured with his neck stuck:

"Then Zhao Jin is also a tiger general, and he has always been Li Ping's boss, and his skills are not bad. Didn't I promote him to a general at the beginning and have been wooing him? Then Zhao Jin also has a general named Shi Ming. , is also a first-class warrior. I am also very close.

It's not that I don't understand your reasoning.

Only Li Ping was a little arrogant.These days, except for reporting to me once, I just hide in that village every day in the name of recuperating.Many military leaders have quite an opinion on this.I just wanted to kill his ignorant prestige this time, lest he get too complacent.

These two days, when he comes to my place again, I will treat him well to show my kindness. "

After patiently listening to these words, Zuo Liangyu still couldn't help but spit out a sip of tea from his mouth, and then angrily said:
"He is ignorant? I think you are ignorant! There are many military leaders who have objections! Who can have an objection for treating my benefactor generously? It's all slander by a bunch of villains. From now on, avoid fooling around with Fang Wuke and those people.

Besides, is there anyone who wins over people like you?If you are a thoughtful person, you are self-defeating.

Zhao Jin is also a good soldier, but it was Li Ping who saved your mother-in-law.In the eyes of others, Li Ping is the benefactor of my Zuo family, if you give him a bad blow, wouldn't that be a slap in the face of yourself!"

"Father, Uncle Fang's nephew is also your nephew. He is capable of both writing and leading troops. Haven't you praised him before!" Zuo Menggeng caught the opportunity to interject.

Fang Wuke is Fang Guoan's nephew.

Zuo Liangyu rolled his eyes because of being choked, and said angrily: "You, you are really... I really don't know what to say. It's not as good as your daughter-in-law. Your daughter-in-law is much better than you, and she reacts faster , is also a good way to use it, and it will be rounded up for you in just one afternoon."

Zuo Liangyu realized that what Fang Wuke said just now was inappropriate, who knows if his stupid son will spread the words, it would be unbeautiful, so he changed the subject casually.

"What did my wife do?" Zuo Menggeng looked stunned, obviously not aware of his wife's meeting with Li Ping in the afternoon.

Seeing Zuo Menggeng's ignorant expression, Zuo Liangyu felt deeply, this woman is not only a righteous one, but also has the final say, but I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing?
Zuo Liangyu suddenly lost the will to continue talking. He had already said what he needed to say, and it would be useless to talk any more. It just depended on how much Zuo Menggeng could understand.

So, he waved his hand and said: "It's getting late, you should go back too. After you go back, treat yourself as a father, and don't act on your will."

After Zuo Menggeng bowed to him, Zuo Liangyu explained uneasy again: "Crossing the river at night is no better than daytime, find two big boats with bright lights, and be careful."

No matter how worried he is, he is still his own son, or his only son, and his safety is always the most important thing in his father's heart.

After watching Zuo Menggeng leave outside the house, Zuo Liangyu couldn't help shaking his head again.

At this moment, one of his aides leaned over from the side, and flattered him for some unknown reason: "Young master, you are so diligent to listen to the old general's teachings at such a late hour. In the future, you will definitely inherit the grand master's great career and become a marquis." king."

When Zuo Liangyu heard this, he immediately turned his face away and reprimanded him angrily, "Don't say that again. My son is not good enough. After I die, he can raise ten cows and two hectares of land." I will be content with this, and relying on this luck to beg for my life. As far as he is like, I took a look, if he becomes a general, it will definitely ruin my Zuo family."

……

When Zuo Menggeng returned to his home in Xiangyang City, his wife was sitting in the main hall reading a book, apparently waiting for him.

"Why did you come back so late today?" Mrs. Wang closed the book and stood up to greet her.

"Daddy asked me to talk to me today, it's too late." Zuo Menggeng said while looking for tea on the table.

He stood at Zuo Liangyu's place for a long time without drinking any water, and he kept thinking about things on the way back, but now he felt a little thirsty.

Mrs. Wang handed over her own tea, and called the waiter to get some more tea, and then she sat down with her at the table.

Seeing Zuo Menggeng sipping tea in a state of anxiety, Wang already guessed a little bit, she said calmly and softly:

"Yesterday, Guerrilla Li Ping sent someone to bring some novelty and exquisite things. He really thought about it! I wanted you to take a look together. I don't want you to be busy with military affairs yesterday and come back late, so I can't bear to disturb you rest.

Today I heard that he also went to your place to listen to you yesterday, so I specially asked people to gather some horses and donkeys and armored guards of honor to send them to him face to face in the name of you and me, and also to support the scene for him. "

Zuo Menggeng looked up at Wang Shi with flickering eyes, and only said "Oh?"

Wang pretended not to notice Zuo Menggeng's abnormal attitude, and laughed to himself:
"Husband, you must take a look at it later, the things of Li Gueran's new filial piety are really flattering. Oh, that's right. Don't take it too seriously if you don't rush to discuss the reward for Li Gueran with you.

Originally, I also wanted to discuss with you first, but I heard that Grandpa summoned Li Gueran in the morning and promised a lot of rewards, so I was in a hurry.People have saved my life and come to show filial piety to me, but I am not as generous as Grandfather, so people will say that. "

Zuo Menggeng blushed suddenly, looked at his wife's smiling face, and murmured: "You can decide these things, how can I be so narrow-minded."

Wang smiled secretly again, but said: "I heard that you are in charge of military affairs these days, and many people praise your husband! They say he is young, promising, and far-sighted."

"That's right, Uncle Fang said several times that I have both civil and military skills, and that I can command well. He also said that the generals often respect me when discussing in private." Zuo Menggeng became a little proud.

Wang immediately followed her husband and said a few good words.

Seeing that Zuo Menggeng's mood had completely turned around, Wang said with a smile: "Let's go back to the house! I'll also show you the things that Li Pingxin paid tribute to. I thought that Li Ping would go to your place in two days. , you get closer, so that those who have fought for my family are the most reassuring."

"Okay, okay, I see." Zuo Menggeng continued to maintain a smile, but he felt a little blocked in his heart.

Just because Li Ping was reprimanded by his father, and when he returned home, his wife also used small words to say that Li Ping was good, and the young and vigorous Zuo Menggeng really felt a little uncomfortable.

Originally, he didn't have any special likes and dislikes towards Li Ping, and he even liked him a little bit more, after all, he was also the one who saved his wife.

But just because of a beating, why did they react so much.

"Then Li Ping has given you the ecstasy soup." Zuo Menggeng began to slander in his heart.

Notes:
