Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 46
How could Qingji not know about Longyuan Sword?

Longyuan Sword, also known as Longquan Sword and Seven Star Longquan Sword, is one of the ten famous swords in ancient times, a sword of integrity and purity.

The legend was forged by two great sword masters, Ou Yezi and Gan Jiang!
Qingji never expected that he would be able to see this legendary famous sword here!

"Present the sword up, and allow everyone to see it."

Qingji immediately stabilized his mind, pretending to be calm.

The general didn't dare to be negligent, so he got up and wanted to go forward to present the Longyuan sword, but was blocked by the general Xiong Zidan, who had to transfer the Longyuan sword to Qingji.

Qing Ji can't trust the generals, after all, He Lu is extremely insidious and cunning!

In case the general Mo Xie is really an assassin sent by He Lu, although Qing Ji is not afraid of his powerful force, how will Qing Ji treat the general Mo Xie and his wife then?
It is worth mentioning that Qingji has promoted Xiong Zidan to General Suwei, that is, the commander of the Suwei camp, similar to the official position of Lang Zhongling.

Now, the state of Wu has reformed the official system and the military system, but it has not been fully implemented, just because there are too few talents in the state of Wu, and many talents are not worthy!
In this way, how can Qingji rest assured that he entrusts important responsibilities to all the ministers and officials?
As for Xiong Zidan, Qing Ji trusted him very much.

Gein Xiong Zidan is brave, has strategy, has both civil and military skills, and is alone. Naturally, no matter what, he hangs himself on the chariot of Qingji and shares weal and woe.

After receiving the Longyuan Sword from Xiong Zidan, Qingji drew the sword out of its sheath again and looked at it carefully.

Longyuan Sword is worthy of being one of the top ten famous swords in ancient times. Its body is dark and deep. Through the light of the sword, Qingji can vaguely see the coldness shining from the blade of Longyuan Sword, the piercing chill!

Qingji was convinced that this was indeed a sword that could cut iron like mud.

"Your Majesty can give it a try."

Go-getters' timely low-pitched voice.

Qing Ji nodded slightly, then pulled out a sharp bronze sword from the waist of the guard on one side, placed the Longyuan sword in front of him, and then swung the sword suddenly!
"clang!"

The ordinary bronze sword slashed on the Longyuan sword, and it actually snapped.

Look at the Longyuan Sword again, it is intact, not to mention the notch and groove, but there is no trace at all!

Qing Ji couldn't help sighing, "It's really a magical weapon!"

"General, you and Ou Yezi are able to forge this sword and offer it to the widow. It is a great achievement. What reward do you want?"

After saying that, Qing Ji looked at the general who bowed to him with a meaningful look.

His eyes seemed to be able to look straight into people's hearts, completely seeing through the general's whole person!
In fact, it is true.

From the words and deeds of Gan Jiang, it is not difficult for Qingji to see that Gan Jiang is a person who pursues fame and fortune.

Just when Caiqian reported himself as a family member, he also brought out his father-in-law Ou Yezi, which shows that he is a human being!
Gein, Mo Xie, the general at this time, is still too young to be well-known, but Ou Yezi has been famous for a long time, and is a well-known master swordsmith in the south of the Yangtze River.

Even many aristocratic monarchs in the countries of the Central Plains knew the name of Ou Yezi and wanted to ask him to forge swords for them!

The general who reported Ou Yezi's name was undoubtedly trying to raise his status and make Wu Wang Qingji look at him high.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Caomin offered their swords and dared not ask for any reward. I hope that the Caomin will stay in Wudu in the future and serve Your Majesty and the State of Wu!"

Generals don't want rewards, but what they want is to be an official!
He offered his sword to Wu Wang Qingji in order to obtain a position as an official!
At this moment, the general's wife, Mo Xie, seeing her husband so thick-skinned and begging for fame and wealth, couldn't help turning her head, with a look of sadness on her face.

How could her husband be such a mercenary?
Qing Ji didn't care too much, and said with a smile, "General, your heart is attached to the widow and the actions of Wu, which is enough to show. I wonder if you have other talents besides sword casting?"

Since the general is asking for an official, Qingji might as well be satisfied.

Now, he is lacking a supporting role to "buy bones with a lot of money", and the go-getter is undoubtedly the best candidate!
Swordsmith belongs to a relatively "humble" profession, a craftsman, and is not considered elegant.

In the feudal era, there was a strict division of society, with scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen with different statuses.

But in this era, the classification of ranks is stricter. People like craftsmen are basically unknown, and few people pay attention to them!

Ganjiang's sword-casting craftsmanship was inherited from Ou Yezi, who rose to fame and was known to the princes, and was highly valued, so his ability is naturally beyond doubt.

However, for a general who can only make swords, even if he offers the Longyuan sword to King Wu Qingji, at most he can only be awarded a hundred gold, or be made an inconspicuous low-level official!

The general was obviously aware of this, so he suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and hurriedly said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Caomin is not only good at making swords, but also proficient in block building and arithmetic."

Plate building, that is, a technique for building walls.

Fu Shuo, a virtuous official in the Yin and Shang Dynasties in the past, started between the boards and buildings!

Hearing that the general is also proficient in building and counting, Qingji couldn't help nodding his head slightly.

He was about to reply to the general, but Mo Xie, who was on the side, couldn't help but said: "Sir, what arithmetic are you proficient in?"

"Liangren's block building is just a few months of working as a plasterer in Kuaiji Mountain. My lover's arithmetic is just a few years of learning from my father!"

"What is proficiency?"

Knowing a husband is better than a wife!
Mo Xie's anger at the generals is enough to prove that the generals do not have real materials in terms of layout and arithmetic.

Mo Xie could only cry secretly for such a general who was eager for quick success!

Go-getters have already committed the crime of deceiving the emperor!
If he celebrates and avoids entrusting important tasks to the generals, and the latter cannot deliver the errands, wouldn't it be a fire?
For this reason, Mo Xie must take precautions before they happen, and completely interrupt the thought of a general seeking an official position!

"you!"

The general was so angry that he pointed at the righteous Mo Xie and was at a loss for words for a moment.

Pitman!

It's a trick!
In the whole world, how could anyone harm her husband like Mo Xie?
However, Qingji just smiled and didn't speak.

"My lord, these are Zhuo Jing's heartbroken words, please don't take them to heart!"

The general was afraid of being punished by Qingji, so he quickly lowered his head and explained.

"Hehe, general, do you know what crime you committed just now? The crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Qingji suddenly put on a cold and slightly stern face, and said: "The crime of deceiving the emperor, in my country of Wu, can be punished with fifty rods or demoted to slaves. If it is serious, it will be executed, or all families will be beheaded!"

"My lord, the grassroots are guilty!"

With a "plop", the frightened go-getter knelt down hastily, with a look of regret and regret on his face.

Mo Xie, who was on the side, also knelt on the ground, begging Qingji to let her husband go, and not add a felony!

Qing Ji said in a neutral manner: "General, what do you think the widow should do with you?"
