Chapter 80 Sizhou Hall of Valor

The next day.

It was cloudy and windy.

After Cheng De sobered up, he went directly to the study.

Sitting at his desk, Cheng De looked at the pile of materials in the Academy of Sciences, thought for a long time, and then let someone inform Li Shanchang that the regulations related to the Academy of Sciences had been passed and could be implemented.

Then, Cheng De got up, opened the small wooden box under the desk that locked "Tuqiang Top Secret", took out a blank soft paper from it, and sat back at the desk again.

He wanted to use his memory to add something he could think of to "Tuqiang Top Secret".

However, when Cheng De held the brush in his hand, he couldn't write a word, and this situation lasted for half an hour.

Suddenly someone came to report, and Luo Erhu asked to see him.

Cheng De let Luo Erhu into the study.

"Meet the general!" Luo Erhu bowed his head and saluted.

"What's the matter with you?" Cheng De looked at Luo Erhu with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Reporting to the general, that yuan envoy Han Bogao wanted to see the general." Luo Erhu said calmly.

"Oh—it's him! I haven't seen him since I brought him from Huai'an City to Sizhou City. He scolded me a lot, right?" Cheng De's eyes were dark.

Luo Erhu hesitated, raised his head and looked carefully at Cheng De, "The general guessed right."

"People in the world only know that I killed the Yuan envoy, but they don't know that the Yuan envoy is still alive. He is a dignified Yuan envoy, and now he is hiding in my Sizhou City. I entertain him with delicious food and drink. What is he dissatisfied with? If he is still like this, then there is no need to waste time on him. After all, the whole world knows that I killed him Han Bogao. I think, without him Han Bogao, my son There are no other talents in Zhoucheng. From my point of view, Shi Naian, Li Shanchang, Lu Wuong, etc., which one is worse than him?" Cheng De turned cold and looked at Luo Erhu calmly.

"Yes." Luo Erhu's tone trembled, and his heart felt cold.

I only hope that this Han Bogao can be acquainted.

Otherwise, he can only help the general with a ruthless hand.

"You go down first, and send someone to keep an eye on Han Bogao secretly, and record his every word and deed. In addition, bring him a sentence, and kill him if he doesn't use it for me!" Cheng De said coldly.

"Follow the order!" Luo Erhu bowed and said goodbye.

Cheng De looked at Luo Erhu's leaving back, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

It’s not good to be soft, so let’s be hard.

Just let me see how hard your bones are.

Cheng De put Han Bogao behind him, put "Tuqiang Top Secret" back into the small wooden box and locked it, and walked out of the study.

Walking and walking, before he knew it, he came to Ma Xiuying's door.

Standing outside the door, Cheng De heard Mu Ying and Xu Sima reading from inside.

Ma Xiuying read a sentence, and they read a sentence.

Listening to the sound of Lang Lang reading, Cheng De gave up the idea of ​​entering the house.

He didn't want to disturb Ma Xiuying teaching Mu Ying and Xu Sima to study.

So Cheng De changed his way and went to Luo Yan's house.

When Cheng De came outside Luo Yan's house, he heard Luo Yan's voice inside asking the general's servants about the expenses of the account book, and Cheng De paused.

Cheng De didn't stay for long, left here, and came to the office of the General's Mansion.

Today's office is not what it used to be.

The office building at this time was reconstructed at the original location, through a wall of the General's Mansion, and connected to a compound on the right side of the General's Mansion.

When Cheng De came here, he saw Li Shanchang and others buried in their desks.

As for, there are many Shu Zuo who come in and go out.

However, most of these clerks were new faces and didn't know Cheng De, so they just nodded and passed Cheng De as if Cheng De was a clerk like them.

Seeing this, Cheng De didn't say anything, he just followed his heart and came here to have a look.

Seeing Li Shanchang and others working hard, Cheng De looked at them with relief, feeling very satisfied.

Cheng De didn't stay here for long.

Turning around, he went to the barracks to inspect it.

Zhang Qijiu followed closely behind Cheng De with dozens of elite guards in brocade clothes.

And Cheng De only brought one soldier.

After a stick of incense.

Cheng De came to the school field barracks.

Feng Guoyong is leading his 5000 troops in strict training.

The same is true of the rest of the barracks.

Cheng De watched the scene in front of him silently, feeling a lot of relief in his heart.

With such soldiers, the world will be won sooner or later.

Later, Cheng De wanted to take a look at the Heroic Monument.

Zhang Qijiu led the way, walked through the streets and alleys, and came to a courtyard.

The plaque on the outer gate of the courtyard reads: Sizhou Yingling Temple.

Cheng De stood in front of the door, raised his head, and looked at the plaque quietly with a solemn expression.

Behind him, Zhang Qijiu and other Jin Yiwei followed.

They looked equally solemn, bowing their heads as if in mourning.

After a cup of tea.

The guard opened the door, and a head poked out from inside.

This person, in his twenties, lost one ear, one hand, and limped his right leg.

Cheng De was taken aback, and looked at Zhang Qijiu.

Zhang Qijiu quickly bowed and said: "General, this person was one of the first to follow the general in the uprising. Due to his heavy injuries, he retired from the army and volunteered to stay here."

Cheng De was a little moved.

As soon as the retired soldier who was probing saw Cheng De, he immediately opened the door, limped up to Cheng De, and bowed to Cheng De: "Greetings, General!"

Cheng De stepped forward and helped the retired soldier in front of him, with some respect in his heart.

"What's your name?" Cheng De looked straight at the retired soldier.

"Reporting to the general, the younger one is called Wang Qiwu." Wang Qiwu replied, his face was full of pride and excitement, and he puffed up his chest, "The younger one was originally a member of the military camp, and he followed the general to participate in Xuyi, Dingyuan , Battle of Haozhou."

Cheng De nodded: "Your body injury is a proof of your heroic killing of the enemy on the battlefield, and it is also a symbol of a good man in our Sizhou Army. Our Sizhou Army is proud of you."

Hearing the words, Wang Qiwu had tears in his eyes and a sore nose, looked at Cheng De and said: "General, if the little one hadn't been injured, he would definitely follow the general and continue to kill the enemy, and wipe out all the thieves for the general."

Cheng De patted Wang Qiwu's shoulder and said, "I'm already very satisfied with your determination. You stay here to protect the spiritual tablet of Sizhou Army brothers, it's no worse than following me to kill the enemy. It's also important."

"Yes." Wang Qiwu replied.

Cheng De looked at Wang Qiwu, "With your injuries, did you hold any position in the army before retiring?"

"Back to the general, the small position is to be the head of a hundred households." Wang Qiwu replied.

"Is there anyone else in the family?" Cheng De continued to ask.

"There is still an old mother in the family, and there are two children to take care of. The mother of the two children passed away due to illness a few days ago." Wang Qiwu replied softly.

"Guarding the Heroic Monument is very important. From now on, the General's Mansion will pay you two taels of silver every month as your reward for guarding it." Cheng De said with an extremely firm tone.

Wang Qiwu hurriedly said: "General, this matter—"

"You listen to me about this matter. I didn't know about it before, but now that I know it, I can't ignore it. You have two children and an old mother to support in your family. With the military salary you received before, you can't ignore it. How long can it last?"

Before Wang Qiwu could continue to speak, Cheng De directly blocked Wang Qiwu's mouth.

Wang Qiwu opened his mouth, feeling mixed feelings in his heart.

But there was infinite gratitude in the eyes looking at Cheng De.

"Also, are the two children in your family male or female?" Cheng De looked at Wang Qiwu and asked.

"They're all boys, the older one is five years old, and the younger one is three years old." Wang Qiwu replied.

"In this way, if the big ones are sent to Sizhou College to study, my general's mansion will bear the expenses. As for the small ones, they will also be sent to Sizhou college to study when they are older. The cost of studying will still be borne by my general's mansion. Bear it." Cheng De pondered for a moment, then spoke directly, his tone full of firmness.

Wang Qiwu was startled, his eyes were full of joy, surprise, and disbelief.

"Thank you, General." Wang Qiwu hastily bowed and thanked.

"Of course, when your child is studying, you should always supervise him and let him study hard. After all, the opportunities to study are still too few at present, so cherish it." Cheng De reminded.

"Yes, what the general meant, I understand that if my son doesn't obey and study hard, I will definitely beat him hard." Wang Qiwu assured, patting his chest.

"Well. You can figure it out. Let's go in first!" Cheng De nodded slightly, then walked towards the inside.

Wang Qiwu followed behind Cheng De.

Zhang Qijiu asked Jin Yiwei to guard the door, while he himself followed behind Wang Qiwu.

There is nothing hidden in the house.
